PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Throughout this filing all references to shares have been restated to reflect a 10:1 forward stock split enacted on May 11, 2009.

Business Development

Alcantara Brands is a development stage company incorporated in the state of Nevada in March of 2008. We were formed to engage in the business of producing and importing resources from Peru, which included a line of flavorings, seasonings, and condiments designed to make everyday in-home prepared meals taste better, in addition to wood products and other Peruvian exports.

As a result of our pursuit of other business interests in Peru, we completed the formation of our wood export subsidiary on January 25, 2010, Woodmans Lumber and Millworks Peru (“WLMP”). WLMP was incorporated in the state of Nevada and was formed for the manufacture, distribution and marketing of lumber from Peru.

The formation of the lumber and millworks division is the result of a number of recent events which have been implemented by us in association with the food production business and other natural resources we intend to commercialize from Peru.

On February 16, 2010, we signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to acquire Woodmans Lumber International, EIRL (“WLI”), wherein we will issue our common stock in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of WLI. Concurrent with the execution of the LOI, Ismael Covarrubias, the founder and president of WLI, would become our Chief Executive Officer for our lumber and millworks division. WLI has orders on hand for lumber in excess of $1 million USD.

WLI supplies and manufactures Peru’s finest hardwood flooring, IPE decking, custom doors, millworks and lumber in South America. WLI has a long term forest concession agreement area of over 46,000 acres in the Amazon region of Ucayali, near Pucallpa.

In July 2009, we entered into an agreement with Chalaco Loreto S.A.C. (“Loreto”), a company operating in Peru and supplying wood products to China, to merge into the Company. The parties to this agreement are re-evaluating the merger.

As of the date hereof, the merger with Loreto has not become effective. The merger agreement contains normal conditions to closing including the audited financial statements of Loreto, prepared pursuant to Regulation S-X to be completed and presented to us for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on a Form 8-K, as required by Item 2.01 and Item 9.01 of Form 8-K. The audited financial statements have not been completed as of this date and the parties are re-evaluating the merger.

Business of Issuer

Introduction of our Lumber Division

We are currently developing our business plan of manufacturing and distributing Peruvian tropical lumber from Peru to China and US. More than 60% of Peru is covered with Amazonian forests. These forests contain more than 3,000 of the 20,000 arboreal species that exist in the world, and also have a great density of trees.

We intend to purchase the lumber from manufacturers in Peru and distribute the products to our customers. We currently have purchase orders from a customer in China.

We will conduct our business through a two-step distribution model. This means we resell the products we purchase from manufacturers to our customers, who then sell the products to the final end users, who are typically professional builders and independent contractors engaged in residential construction and remodeling projects.

Our goal is to offer products that allow us to provide value to our customers, by buying products in bulk and disaggregating them for individual customers or carrying a depth and breadth of products that customers cannot reasonably stock themselves.

Our products will fall into three categories: (i) millwork, which includes doors, windows, moulding, stair parts and columns, (ii) general building products, which include decking, and (iii) wood products, which include engineered wood products, such as floor systems, as well as wood panels and lumber.

Introduction of our Food Product Line

Our product is intended to be a line of flavorings, seasonings, and condiments designed to make everyday in-home prepared meals taste better. Made with Peruvian peppers, the products will transform routine in-home prepared foods into exciting meals. There are many important factors having a significant impact on grocery food categories sales: long-term, perennial trends, such as convenience and health, as well as more recent growth of more intense flavor options, and ethnic/regional cuisine. The line promises to add sales for retailers, through the introduction of a new grocery category (seasoning pastes), and distinctive, unique flavors (the Peruvian peppers) to established condiment categories. We intend for Supermarkets to use the Company’s high-margin product line to build up their specialty food offering, differentiating themselves from mass merchandisers. The product line of seasoning pastes do not replace other products, but are used in addition to them, representing an opportunity for retailers to build category growth.

The unique and varied climate and geography of Peru, where our supply chain processes start, are major factors contributing to a highly differentiated product offering. Peru is located in the tropics near the equator, on the west coast of South America, bordered by the South Pacific Ocean, Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil, Bolivia, and Chile. It covers nearly the area of Alaska (twice the area of France). The international climate classification of Köppen establishes eleven main types of climates, of which Peru possesses eight. A trip through Peru can encounter an infinite variety of micro-climates from hot deserts and dry forests, to humid savannas and plain rainforests, to cold plateaus, cool steppes, and icy mountains. These unique micro-climates, analogous to the concept of terroir in winemaking, converge in unique ways that do not occur elsewhere in the world, resulting in a distinct source for the Company’s ingredients that cannot be replicated elsewhere.

Peruvian Culinary Tradition and Our Product Background

Peruvian cuisine is known not only for its exquisite taste, but also for its variety and ability to incorporate the influence from different times and cultures. The culinary history of the Peruvian food dates back to the Incas and pre-Incas with its maize, potatoes, and spices that later was influenced by the arrival of the Spanish colonists, and throughout the years it incorporated the demands of the different migrations and mestizajes. Such groups included Chinese, European, African, and Japanese immigrants. The mestizajes resulting from immigration, combined with the diversity of unique ingredients, is a key factor in making the local cuisine so distinctive.

The most important seasoning used to prepare meals during Pre-Hispanic times was what today is known as aji, which even today is omnipresent in Peruvian food. Aji is a hot pepper considered the soul of Peruvian cooking by its chefs. There are dozens of varieties in Peru. The seven Peruvian peppers used in our product line (i.e., Amarillo, Mirasol, Panca, Red Limo, Green Limo, Rocoto, and Charapita) are all new to the market, and are generally unavailable outside of Peru, except in the Company’s products. Our product line will blend the diverse ingredients from Peru’s varied climates and distinctive ecologies, ranging from the dry coastal planes to Andean foothill valleys to the jungles of the Amazon.
 
Seasoning Pastes
 
We are developing Seasoning Pastes as an easy way to bring this new Peruvian taste sensation into the kitchen. The Costa (coastal zone) of Peru is an arid, mostly hilly region between the Pacific shore, much of which is bordered by high cliffs, and the Andes farther east. Agricultural settlements that irrigate and cultivate small areas of these valleys are actually oases in this desertlike environment. Our Seasoning Pastes will be made by condensing aji peppers grown in these coastal valleys, and are available in three different peppers, each offering its own distinct flavor profile: Amarillo Seasoning Paste offers a unique balance of heat and flavor. This is the most commonly used pepper in all of Peru, adding a fruity, more robust taste to your meals. Panca Seasoning Paste delivers a subtle, smoky flavor that is enhanced with a delightful spiciness and adds richness to your favorite recipes. It's a long red pepper used in Peruvian cooking to thicken and flavor. Mirasol Seasoning Paste adds a full-bodied flavor and just the right amount of heat, which mellows with cooking.

Peppers

Besides their presence as core ingredients in Seasoning Pastes, condiments, and sauces, aji peppers may be served whole, sliced, roasted, and mixed with other peppers. The Company’s first product featuring whole peppers will be the mini hot, or Charapita, peppers. They produce a burst of flavor, followed by a sweet aftertaste. Charapitas come from the Peruvian Amazon jungle in the eastern lowlands, where natives attribute to them aphrodisiac qualities. Unlike jalapeño or habanero peppers which burn your mouth, the charapita pepper bursts with flavor without the overpowering heat.

Condiments

As compared to the Company’s Seasoning Pastes, which are primarily used in the kitchen as a flavor enhancement to sauces, dips, marinades, and other recipes (and secondarily as a stand-alone condiment), the Company’s condiments are primarily used at the table to be added to cooked foods. Offered in convenient twelve-ounce bottles, our condiments will also constitute a new cooking ingredient to barbecued and grilled foods and other familiar recipes. The Spicy Ketchup we are developing is made with Peruvian tomatoes, Rocoto peppers and spices. This delightful blend of delicious ingredients is often considered to be an “adult” version of traditional ketchup because of its bold, complex flavors. The naturally sweet Peruvian tomatoes require none of the sugar or other sweeteners found in other ketchups. The Spicy Steak Sauce is made with Amarillo peppers and Peruvian spices that produce a delightful flavor based on lomo saltado, a Peruvian beef entrée that is popular with children and adults alike. The Spicy Marinade blends the Panca and Mirasol peppers with native spices to bring grilled meats to life with minimum fuss.

Pepper Sauces

The Red and Green Pepper Sauces we are developing are made with peppers grown in the mountain valleys of Peru. The Red Pepper Sauce includes rocoto and red limo peppers, where as the Green Pepper Sauce includes the same limo peppers in their green, less mature state. These perfect blends of peppers and spices will enhance your meal without overpowering it.

Raw Materials

Our personnel will select and purchase all raw materials and other processed ingredients from sources in various locations in Peru. The aji peppers and some other raw materials will be purchased directly from a network of small, independent growers, whereas other raw materials will be purchased via middlemen. Processed ingredients will be purchased from companies located in and around Lima. Packaging materials are to be shipped to operating sites in Lima. All jars, bottles, lids, labels, and corrugated cases will be purchased from suppliers located in Lima and shipped to a selected company operating site.

Manufacturing and Filling

All raw materials and packaging materials are to be delivered to any of three plants in the Lima area with then-current capacity. The batch manufacturing process is to be carried out at these plants by our personnel, thereby preserving our trade secret product formulae and process know-how. Though we will initially contract the equipment use and the labor to complete the manufacturing and filling, we plan to acquire the equipment to perform these two key processes at our own production facility in Lima, thereby further reducing operating costs by avoiding tolling fees.

Packaging and Warehousing

Labeling, packaging, and warehousing will take place at a selected company operating site. Final product in corrugated cases will be shipped in twenty-foot sea containers from the Port of Callao to Charleston and Long Beach ports in the U.S. Containers, and are then to be trucked to warehouses in Chattanooga, Tennessee and Buena Park, California. The Company will then truck its products to retailers from these two distribution centers.

Intellectual Property & Proprietary Rights

Upon completion of our brand development, we will regard substantial elements of our brands and underlying intellectual property as proprietary and attempt to protect them by relying on trademark, service mark and trade secret laws, restrictions on disclosure and transferring title and other methods. We currently do not have any intellectual property we consider proprietary, as we are currently in our development stage.

Employees

At December 31, 2009, we had two part-time employees, Carlos T. Alcantara and Shanda Alcantara, who are also our officers and directors.

Mr. Alcantara is spending the time allocated to our business in handling the general business affairs of our company such as accounting issues, including review of materials presented to our auditors, working with our counsel in preparation of SEC filings, and developing our business plan and overseeing the technological aspects of our business. Mrs. Alcantara is spending time on the development of our product lines, advertising materials, and overseeing startup production in Peru.

Subsequent Events

On January 25, 2010, we incorporated our wholly-owned subsidiary, Woodmans Lumber and Millworks Peru (“WLMP”) in the state of Nevada. WLMP was formed for the manufacture, distribution and marketing of lumber from Peru.

On February 9, 2010, we executed a consulting agreement with an unrelated third party to provide us with business consulting services. The term of the agreement is for six (6) months from the date of February 9, 2010. Pursuant to the agreement we agreed to issue 500,000 shares of our restricted common stock as compensation for the services.  The shares were issued on February 18, 2010.

On March 3, 2010, we executed a legal services retainer and issued 1,000,000 warrants with a cashless exercise.  The warrants expire on March 2, 2013 and have an exercise price of $0.31.

On March 12, 2010, we agreed to purchase 5.625 kilos of gold from an unrelated third party in exchange for cash of $40,000 and 866,667 shares of common stock valued at $260,000 based on the fair value of the common stock.  As of March 31, 2010, we did not complete the transaction and the agreement was terminated on April 28, 2010.

On March 22, 2010, we executed an investment banking agreement with an unrelated third party to assist the Company with obtaining equity financing.  We agreed to issue 50,000 shares of common stock upon execution of the agreement.  Additionally, we agreed to a fee payable in cash totaling 10% of the equity financing and warrants in the amount of 10% of the number of shares of common sold of the equity financing.  The agreement expires on September 22, 2010.  The shares were issued on April 26, 2010.

Subsequent to the year end, we commenced the analysis of spinning off our food division into a separate stand alone public company in an effort to establish a more focused business organization, with an ability to draw in capital, and thus increase shareholder value.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We are a development stage company organized in March 2008 and have recently commenced operations, which makes an evaluation of us extremely difficult. At this stage of our business operations, even with our good faith efforts, we may never become profitable or generate any significant amount of revenues, thus potential investors have a high probability of losing their investment.

We were incorporated in March of 2008 as a Nevada corporation. As a result of our start-up operations we have; (i) generated no revenues, (ii) accumulated deficits of $336,637 for the period ended December 31, 2009, and (iii) we have incurred losses of $414,101 from our inception through the period ended December 31, 2009.  We have been focused on organizational and start-up activities, business plan development, and commenced development of our food products since we incorporated. Although we have commenced the development of our food product lines, there is nothing at this time on which to base an assumption that our business operations will prove to be successful or that we will ever be able to operate profitably. Our future operating results will depend on many factors, including our ability to raise adequate working capital, demand for our products, the level of our competition and our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees.

Our auditor’s have substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  Additionally, our auditor’s report reflects that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital from the sale of common stock and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues.

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Our auditor’s report reflects that the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to raise additional capital from the sale of common stock and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, stockholders will lose their investment.  We will be required to seek additional capital to fund future growth and expansion. No assurance can be given that such financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on commercially favorable terms. Moreover, favorable financing may be dilutive to investors.

We will require additional financing in order to implement our business plan. In the event we are unable to acquire additional financing, we may not be able to implement our business plan resulting in a loss of revenues and ultimately the loss of your investment.

Due to our very recent start-up nature, we will have to incur the costs of product development, import expenses, advertising, in addition to hiring new employees and commencing additional marketing activities for product sales and distribution. To fully implement our business plan we will require substantial additional funding.

 
8

 


We will need to raise additional funds to expand our operations. We plan to raise additional funds through private placements, registered offerings, debt financing or other sources to maintain and expand our operations. Adequate funds for this purpose on terms favorable to us may not be available, and if available, on terms significantly more adverse to us than are manageable. Without new funding, we may be only partially successful or completely unsuccessful in implementing our business plan, and our stockholders may lose part or all of their investment.

We are significantly dependent on our two officers and directors, who have limited experience. The loss or unavailability to the Company of Mr. and Mrs. Alcantara’s services would have an adverse effect on our business, operations and prospects in that we may not be able to obtain new management under the same financial arrangements.

Our business plan is significantly dependent upon the abilities and continued participation of Carlos T. Alcantara, our President. It would be difficult to replace Mr. Alcantara at such an early stage of development of the Company. The loss or unavailability to the Company of Mr. Alcantara’s services would have an adverse effect on our business, operations and prospects, in that our inability to replace Mr. Alcantara could result in the loss of one’s investment.  Additionally, our business plan is significantly dependent upon the abilities and continued participation of Shanda Alcantara, our Secretary and Treasurer, which the loss or unavailability of Mrs. Alcantara could materially impact our business operations.

There can be no assurance that we would be able to locate or employ personnel to replace Mr. or Mrs. Alcantara, should either of their services be discontinued. In the event that we are unable to locate or employ personnel to replace either Mr. or Mrs. Alcantara, then we may be required to cease pursuing our business opportunity.

Mr. Alcantara has no experience in running a public company. The lack of experience in operating a public company could impact our return on investment, if any.

As a result of our reliance on Mr. Alcantara, and his lack of experience in operating a public company, our investors are at risk in losing their entire investment. Mr. Alcantara intends to hire personnel in the future, when sufficiently capitalized, who may have the experience required to manage our company; however, such management is not anticipated until the occurrence of future financing. Until such future financing occurs, and until such management is in place, we are reliant upon Mr. Alcantara to make the appropriate management decisions.

Mr. Alcantara may become involved with other businesses and there can be no assurance that he will continue to provide services to us. Mr. Alcantara’s limited time devotion to the Company could have the effect on our operations of preventing us from being a successful business operation, which ultimately could cause a loss of stockholder investment.

 
9

 



As compared to many other public companies, we do not have the depth of managerial or technical personnel. Mr. Alcantara is currently involved in other businesses, which have not, and are not expected in the future to interfere with Mr. Alcantara’s ability to work on behalf of our Company. Mr. Alcantara may in the future be involved with other businesses and there can be no assurance that he will continue to provide services to us. Mr. Alcantara will devote only a portion of his time to our activities.

Because of competitive pressures from competitors with more resources, the Company may fail to implement our business model profitably.

The business of developing food product lines is highly fragmented and extremely competitive. There are numerous competitors offering similar products. The market for customers is intensely competitive and such competition is expected to continue to increase. There are no substantial barriers to entry in this market and we believe that our ability to compete depends upon many factors within and beyond our control, including the timing and market acceptance of food products developed by us, our competitors, and their advisors.
 
Many of our existing and potential competitors have longer operating histories in the food markets, greater name recognition, larger customer bases, established product lines, and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do. As a result, they will be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging advertising techniques, and changes in customer demands, or to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and marketing of their products than we can. Such competitors are able to undertake more extensive marketing campaigns for their products, adopt more aggressive pricing policies and make more attractive offers to potential store outlets, and strategic distribution partners.
 
Because our common stock is deemed a low-priced “Penny” stock, an investment in our common stock should be considered high risk and subject to marketability restrictions.
 
Since our common stock is a penny stock, as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act, it will be more difficult for investors to liquidate their investment even if and when a market develops for the common stock. Until the trading price of the common stock rises above $5.00 per share, if ever, trading in the common stock is subject to the penny stock rules of the Securities Exchange Act specified in rules 15g-1 through 15g-10. Those rules require broker-dealers, before effecting transactions in any penny stock, to:
 
·  
Deliver to the customer, and obtain a written receipt for, a disclosure document;
·  
Disclose certain price information about the stock;
·  
Disclose the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer or any associated person of the broker-dealer;
·  
Send monthly statements to customers with market and price information about the penny stock; and
·  
In some circumstances, approve the purchaser’s account under certain standards and deliver written statements to the customer with information specified in the rules.

 
10

 


Consequently, the penny stock rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell the common stock and may affect the ability of holders to sell their common stock in the secondary market and the price at which such holders can sell any such securities. These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.

FINRA sales practice requirements may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.

In addition to the “penny stock” rules described above, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. The FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board, which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.

Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, generally must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board.  More specifically, FINRA has enacted Rule 6530, which determines eligibility of issuers quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board by requiring an issuer to be current in its filings with the Commission.  Pursuant to Rule 6530(e), if we file our reports late with the Commission three times in a two-year period or our securities are removed from the OTC Bulletin Board for failure to timely file twice in a two-year period, then we will be ineligible for quotation on the OTC Bulletin Board.  As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.  As of the date of this filing, we have one late filing reported by FINRA.

Our internal controls may be inadequate, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. As defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f), internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the principal executive and principal financial officer and effected by the board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

We have two individuals performing the functions of all officers and directors. Mr. Alcantara, our president, has developed our internal control procedures and is responsible for monitoring and ensuring compliance with those procedures. As a result, our internal controls may be inadequate or ineffective, which could cause our financial reporting to be unreliable and lead to misinformation being disseminated to the public. Investors relying upon this misinformation may make an uninformed investment decision.

Dividends

The payment of dividends is subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend, among other things, upon our earnings, our capital requirements, our financial condition, and other relevant factors. We have not paid or declared any dividends upon our common stock since our inception and, by reason of our present financial status and our contemplated financial requirements, do not anticipate paying any dividends upon our common stock in the foreseeable future.
 
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends. We currently do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future on the shares of common stock. We intend to reinvest any earnings in the development and expansion of our business. Any cash dividends in the future to common stockholders will be payable when, as and if declared by our Board of Directors, based upon the Board’s assessment of:

·  
our financial condition;
·  
earnings;
·  
need for funds;
·  
capital requirements;
·  
prior claims of preferred stock to the extent issued and outstanding; and
·  
other factors, including any applicable laws.

Therefore, there can be no assurance that any dividends on the common stock will ever be paid.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

The recipients of the shares were afforded an opportunity for effective access to files and records of the Company that contained the relevant information needed to make their investment decision, including the financial statements and 34 Act reports. We reasonably believed that the recipients, immediately prior to the sale of the shares, had such knowledge and experience in our financial and business matters that they were capable of evaluating the merits and risks of their investments. The recipients had the opportunity to speak with our management on several occasions prior to their investment decision. There were no commissions paid on the issuance and sale of the shares.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

Not applicable.

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

OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK

Alcantara Brands is a development stage company, formed to engage in the business of producing and importing resources from Peru, which include a line of flavorings, seasonings, and condiments, in addition to wood products and other Peruvian exports.

 
15

 


Since our inception on March 7, 2008 through December 31, 2009, we have not generated any revenues and have incurred a net loss of $414,101. We believe that our lack of significant expenses and our ability to commence purchasing and importing products from Peru will generate revenues sufficient to support the limited costs associated with our initial ongoing operations for the next twelve months.  There can be no assurance that the actual expenses incurred will not materially exceed our estimates or that cash flows from product imports will be adequate to maintain our business.  As a result, our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern in the independent auditors’ report to the financial statements.

Subsequent Events

On January 25, 2010, we incorporated our wholly-owned subsidiary, Woodmans Lumber and Millworks Peru (“WLMP”) in the state of Nevada. WLMP was formed for the manufacture, distribution and marketing of lumber from Peru.

On February 9, 2010, we executed a consulting agreement with an unrelated third party to provide us with business consulting services. The term of the agreement is for six (6) months from the date of February 9, 2010. Pursuant to the agreement we agreed to issue 500,000 shares of our restricted common stock as compensation for the services.  The shares were issued on February 18, 2010.

On March 3, 2010, we executed a legal services retainer and issued 1,000,000 warrants with a cashless exercise.  The warrants expire on March 2, 2013 and have an exercise price of $0.31.

On March 12, 2010, we agreed to purchase 5.625 kilos of gold for an unrelated third party in exchange for cash of $40,000 and 866,667 shares of common stock valued at $260,000 based on the fair value of the common stock.  As of March 31, 2010, we did not complete the transaction and the agreement was terminated on April 28, 2010.

On March 22, 2010, we executed an investment banking agreement with an unrelated third party to assist the Company with obtaining equity financing.  We agreed to issue 50,000 shares of common stock upon execution of the agreement.  Additionally, we agreed to a fee payable in cash totaling 10% of the equity financing and warrants in the amount of 10% of the number of shares of common sold of the equity financing.  The agreement expires on September 22, 2010.  The shares were issued on April 26, 2010.

Plan of Operation

Subsequent to the year end, we commenced the analysis of spinning off our food division into a separate stand alone public company in an effort to establish a more focused business organization, with an ability to draw in capital, and thus increase shareholder value.
 
We are also focusing on developing our business in manufacturing and distributing lumber from Peru to China and US.

Going Concern
 
The financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of the Company as a going concern.  The Company may not have a sufficient amount of cash required to pay all of the costs associated with operating and marketing of its products. Management intends to use borrowings and security sales to mitigate the effects of cash flow deficits, however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue existence.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock. As we expand our activities, we may, and most likely will, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending receipt of product sales. Additionally, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings, to the extent available, or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. In the future we need to generate sufficient revenues from product sales in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock or obtain additional loans. There can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our business plan.

We anticipate that we will incur operating losses in the next twelve months. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain.  Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development. Such risks for us include, but are not limited to, an evolving and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these risks, we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continually develop our line of products, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements 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 investors.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions.

In July 2009, the FASB ratified the consensus reached by EITF (Emerging Issues Task Force) issued EITF No. 09-1, (ASC Topic 470) “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance” (“EITF 09-1”).  The provisions of EITF 09-1, clarifies the accounting treatment and disclosure of share-lending arrangements that are classified as equity in the financial statements of the share lender.  An example of a share-lending arrangement is an agreement between the Company (share lender) and an investment bank (share borrower) which allows the investment bank to use the loaned shares to enter into equity derivative contracts with investors.  EITF 09-1 is effective for fiscal years that beginning on or after December 15, 2009 and requires retrospective application for all arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009.   Share-lending arrangements that have been terminated as a result of counterparty default prior to December 15, 2009, but for which the entity has not reached a final settlement as of December 15, 2009 are within the scope.  Effective for share-lending arrangements entered into on or after the beginning of the first reporting period that begins on or after June 15, 2009.  The Company does not expect the provisions of EITF 09-1 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
 
In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 167 (ASC Topic 810), “Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) (“SFAS 167”).   SFAS 167 amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The provisions of SFAS 167 significantly affect the overall consolidation analysis under FASB Interpretation No. 46(R).  SFAS 167 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2009. SFAS 167 will be effective for the Company beginning in 2010. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS 167 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 166, (ASC Topic 860) “Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets—an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140” (“SFAS 166”). The provisions of SFAS 166, in part, amend the derecognition guidance in FASB Statement No. 140, eliminate the exemption from consolidation for qualifying special-purpose entities and require additional disclosures. SFAS 166 is effective for financial asset transfers occurring after the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2009. The Company does not expect the provisions of SFAS 166 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

This item in not applicable as we are currently considered a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA

See Index to Financial Statements and Financial Statement Schedules appearing on page F-1 through F-20 of this Form 10-K.

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

We have had no disagreements with our independent auditors on accounting or financial disclosures.

ITEM 9A (T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, Carlos Alcantara, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on his evaluation, Mr. Alcantara concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures did not operate effectively as of the end of the period covered by this report in timely alerting him to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings and in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

The material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our sole in-house accounting employee in the compilation of necessary disclosures for the preparation by our financial consultant of the financial statements, footnotes and financial data included in the report we file or submit under the Exchange Act. Our financial consultant oversees that our financial reporting is prepared and presented in an effective manner by our sole in-house accounting employee. This lack of accounting staff results in a lack of segregation of duties and accounting technical expertise necessary for an effective system of internal control.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

           Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control, as is defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.  These internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the reported financial information is presented fairly, that disclosures are adequate and that the judgments inherent in the preparation of financial statements are reasonable.  There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any system of internal controls, including the possibility of human error and overriding of controls.  Consequently, an effective internal control system can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance with respect to reporting financial information.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and the receipts and expenditures of company assets are made and in accordance with our management and directors authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements.

Management has undertaken an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework and criteria established in the Internal Control – Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”).  Based upon this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2009.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to the 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

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION

None.

PART III

Shanda Alcantara
53
Secretary/Treasurer, Director

Duties, Responsibilities and Experience
 
Carlos T. Alcantara. Age 59, President, Director and co-founder of the Company from March 7, 2008 to present. From 2000 to present Mr. Alcantara was, and still is, involved in the development of a food processing and import business in Peru. Prior to founding the Company, Mr. Alcantara served for two years as President of international operations for Pennzoil-Quaker State Company (formerly NYSE: PZL), where he was responsible for the expansion of the company’s international business and positioning Pennzoil-Quaker State Company as a world leader in vehicle care and maintenance products until its acquisition by Shell Oil Company in 2001. Mr. Alcantara previously served for seven years as Vice President Latin America and Vice President of Worldwide Business Development with the Clorox Company (NYSE/PSE: CLX), a leading manufacturer and marketer of consumer products. Earlier in his career, Mr. Alcantara served in various capacities of progressively increasing responsibility for Sales, Marketing, and General Management with the Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE: PG). Mr. Alcantara holds a Masters of Business Administration from Xavier University in Ohio, and a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Economics, magna cum laude, from University of the Pacific in California.

Limitation of Liability of Directors

Pursuant to the Nevada General Corporation Law, our Articles of Incorporation exclude personal liability for our Directors for monetary damages based upon any violation of their fiduciary duties as Directors, except as to liability for any breach of the duty of loyalty, acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or any transaction from which a Director receives an improper personal benefit. This exclusion of liability does not limit any right which a Director may have to be indemnified and does not affect any Director’s liability under federal or applicable state securities laws. We have agreed to indemnify our directors against expenses, judgments, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with any claim against a Director if he acted in good faith and in a manner he believed to be in our best interests.

Election of Directors and Officers

Directors are elected to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified. Officers are appointed to serve until the meeting of the Board of Directors following the next annual meeting of stockholders and until their successors have been elected and qualified.

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

No Executive Officer or Director of the Company has been the subject of any Order, Judgment, or Decree of any Court of competent jurisdiction, or any regulatory agency permanently or temporarily enjoining, barring suspending or otherwise limiting him/her from acting as an investment advisor, underwriter, broker or dealer in the securities industry, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of an investment company, bank, savings and loan association, or insurance company or from engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with any such activity or in connection with the purchase or sale of any securities.

No Executive Officer or Director of the Corporation has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations) or is the subject of a criminal proceeding which is currently pending.

Audit Committee and Financial Expert

We do not have an Audit Committee.  Our directors perform some of the same functions of an Audit Committee, such as: recommending a firm of independent certified public accountants to audit the annual financial statements; reviewing the independent auditors independence, the financial statements and their audit report; and reviewing management's administration of the system of internal accounting controls. We do not currently have a written audit committee charter or similar document.
 
We have no financial expert.  We believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive.  Further, because of our start-up operations, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), requires executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of an issuer's common stock, which has been registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC.

As a company with securities registered under Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act, our executive officers and directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of our common stock are not required to file Section 16(a) reports.

Code of Ethics

A code of ethics relates to written standards that are reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

(1)  
Honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
(2)  
Full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in reports and documents that are filed with, or submitted to, the Commission and in other public communications made by an issuer;
(3)  
Compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;
(4)  
The prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to an appropriate person or persons identified in the code; and
(5)  
Accountability for adherence to the code.

We have not adopted a corporate code of ethics that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions.

Our decision to not adopt such a code of ethics results from our having only two officers and directors operating as the management for the Company.  We believe that the limited interaction which occurs having such a small management structure for the Company eliminates the current need for such a code, in that violations of such a code would be reported to the party generating the violation.

Corporate Governance

Nominating Committee

We do not have a Nominating Committee or Nominating Committee Charter.  Our Board of Directors performs some of the functions associated with a Nominating Committee.  We have elected not to have a Nominating Committee in that we are an initial-stages operating company with limited operations and resources.

 
28

 


Director Nomination Procedures

Generally, nominees for Directors are identified and suggested by the members of the Board or management using their business networks.  The Board has not retained any executive search firms or other third parties to identify or evaluate director candidates in the past and does not intend to in the near future.  In selecting a nominee for director, the Board or management considers the following criteria:

1.  
whether the nominee has the personal attributes for successful service on the Board, such as demonstrated character and integrity; experience at a strategy/policy setting level; managerial experience dealing with complex problems; an ability to work effectively with others; and sufficient time to devote to the affairs of the Company;
2.  
whether the nominee has been the chief executive officer or senior executive of a public company or a leader of a similar organization, including industry groups, universities or governmental organizations;
3.  
whether the nominee, by virtue of particular experience, technical expertise or specialized skills or contacts relevant to the Company’s current or future business, will add specific value as a Board member; and
4.  
whether there are any other factors related to the ability and willingness of a new nominee to serve, or an existing Board member to continue his service.

The Board or management has not established any specific minimum qualifications that a candidate for director must meet in order to be recommended for Board membership.  Rather, the Board or management will evaluate the mix of skills and experience that the candidate offers, consider how a given candidate meets the Board’s current expectations with respect to each such criterion and make a determination regarding whether a candidate should be recommended to the stockholders for election as a Director.  During 2009, the Company received no recommendation for Directors from its stockholders.

The Company will consider for inclusion in its nominations of new Board of Directors nominees proposed by stockholders who have held at least 1% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company for at least one year.  Board candidates referred by such stockholders will be considered on the same basis as Board candidates referred from other sources.  Any stockholder who wishes to recommend for the Company’s consideration a prospective nominee to serve on the Board of Directors may do so by giving the candidate’s name and qualifications in writing to the Company’s Secretary at the following address:  3753 Howard Hughes Parkway, Suite 200, Las Vegas, Nevada 89169.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Summary Compensation

Our executive officers have not received any compensation, including plan or non-plan compensation, nor have our executive officers earned any compensation as of the date of this filing.

On March 3, 2010, we entered into an employment agreement with our President, Carlos Alcantara, which was subsequently terminated in April 2010 as a result of a decision made by the Board that it would be of more benefit to the Company for the executive officers to continue to provide services without compensation until such time as we have earnings from our revenue.

Future Compensation

Our executive officers have agreed to provide services to us without compensation until such time as we have earnings from our revenue.

Board Committees

We currently do not have any committees of the board of directors.

ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
 
       The following table sets forth information, to the best of our knowledge, about the beneficial ownership of our common stock on May 5, 2010 relating to the beneficial ownership of our common stock by those persons known to beneficially own more than 5% of our capital stock and by our directors and executive officers.  The percentage of beneficial ownership for the following table is based on 15,986,348 shares of common stock outstanding.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and does not necessarily indicate beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, beneficial ownership includes those shares of common stock over which the stockholder has sole or shared voting or investment power. It also includes shares of common stock that the stockholder has a right to acquire within 60 days after May 5, 2010 pursuant to options, warrants, conversion privileges or other right. The percentage ownership of the outstanding common stock, however, is based on the assumption, expressly required by the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, that only the person or entity whose ownership is being reported has converted options or warrants into shares of our common stock.

Includes 1,000,000 warrants to purchase shares of our common stock at $0.31 per share (expiring on March 2, 2013).

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPNDENCE

On March 7, 2008, we issued two officers of the Company a total of 5,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value common stock at a price of $0.001 per share for a total amount raised of $5,000.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, an officer, director and shareholder of the Company paid for expenses totaling $2,555 on behalf of the Company.  The officer does not expect to be repaid for these expenses and have been recorded to additional paid in capital.

During the year ended December 31, 2009, we paid $14,000 to Chalaco Loreto S.A.C. for the purchase of lumber which was recorded as prepaid inventory.  Chalaco Loreto S.A.C. is an entity that is owned and controlled by an officer, director and shareholder of the Company.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Alcantara Brands Corporation
Las Vegas, NV

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Alcantara Brands Corporation (A Development Stage Enterprise) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 and from inception (March 7, 2008) to December 31, 2008 and 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  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.  We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Alcantara Brands Corporation (A Development Stage Enterprise) as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2009 and from inception (March 7, 2008) to December 31, 2008 and 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

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

ALCANTARA BRANDS CORPORATION
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization
The Company was incorporated on March 7, 2008 (Date of Inception) under the laws of the State of Nevada, as Alcantara Brands Corporation. The Company developed its business plan over the period commencing with March 7, 2008 and ending on December 31, 2008, although Mr. Alcantara, the Company’s sole officer and director, had been working on the concept over a period of years. In 2008, the Company created its initial product line.
 
The Company has not commenced significant operations and, in accordance Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) topic 915, the Company is considered a development stage company.
 
Nature of operations
The Company was formed to engage in the business of producing and importing, directly from Peru, a line of flavorings, seasonings, and condiments designed to make everyday in-home prepared meals taste better. Made with Peruvian peppers, the Alcantara Brands are intended to transform routine in-home prepared foods into exciting meals.
 
Our President, Carlos Alcantara, and one of the founders of Alcantara Brands comes from Callao, Peru, which is the basis for our Peruvian brand of products being developed by us.
 
The Company’s business model is built on multiple revenue streams from a variety of industry participants interested in marketing their services to our consumer audience. It intends to generate revenues primarily from product imports from Peru.  During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company started to explore the lumber and the mining industry in Peru.

Cash and cash equivalents
For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value.

Inventory
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out basis) or market (net realizable value).

Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenues are anticipated to be derived from multiple sources.  Primarily revenues will be earned upon shipment of products.
 
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are anticipated to be expensed as incurred; however there were no advertising costs included in general and administrative expenses for the period of Inception (March 7, 2008) to December 31, 2008 and for the year ended December 31, 2009.

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



Fair value of financial instruments
Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2009 and 2008. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Stock-based compensation
The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718 which requires the Company to recognize expenses related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards.  This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.

Earnings per share
The Company follows ASC Topic 260 to account for the earnings per share. Basic earning per common share (“EPS”) calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted earning per common share calculations are determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding. During periods when common stock equivalents, if any, are anti-dilutive they are not considered in the computation.

Income taxes
The Company follows ASC Topic 740 for recording the provision for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability each period. If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change.
 
Deferred income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.

ALCANTARA BRANDS CORPORATION
(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The Company applies a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold for all tax uncertainties. ASC Topic 740 only allows the recognition of those tax benefits that have a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company reviewed its tax positions and determined there were no outstanding, or retroactive tax positions with less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, therefore this standard has not had a material affect on the Company.
 
The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to its total unrecognized tax benefits within the next 12 months. 

The Company classifies tax-related penalties and net interest as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2009 and 2008, no income tax expense has been incurred.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Recent pronouncements
Below is a listing of the most recent accounting standards and their effect on the Company.

The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-12 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

That amendment is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-09 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

The amendments should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopted FAS 160.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-02 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-01, Equity (Topic 505): Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash (A Consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).  This amendment to Topic 505 clarifies the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in EPS prospectively and is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. This update is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and would be applied on a retrospective basis.  The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-01 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-13 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As noted above, the Company is in the development stage and, accordingly, has not yet generated revenues from operations. Since its inception, the Company has been engaged substantially in financing activities and developing its business plan and incurring start up costs and expenses. As a result, the Company incurred accumulated net losses from Inception (March 7, 2008) through the period ended December 31, 2009 of ($414,101). In addition, the Company’s development activities since inception have been financially sustained through equity financing.
 
The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to raise additional capital from the sale of common stock and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating revenues. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 was $141,435 and $23,612, respectively, which will begin to expire 2028.  In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment.  As a result, management determined it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and maintained a full valuation allowance.
