Forward Looking Statements

Certain statements made or incorporated by reference in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), in our press releases and in statements made by or with the approval of authorized personnel constitute “forward looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) with respect to, among other things, future events and financial trends affecting us. Forward looking statements are typically identified by words such as believes, estimates, expects, anticipates, plans, should, would and similar expressions.

Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward looking statements are reasonable, readers are cautioned that forward looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, are not guarantees of future performance and that actual results, performance or achievements may differ materially from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward looking statements.

Forward looking statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K speak only as of the date hereof, and forward looking statements in documents incorporated by reference speak only as of the date of those documents. Unless otherwise required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise these forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks and uncertainties, we cannot ensure that the forward looking statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K will, in fact, transpire.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

General

Card Activation Technologies Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) was incorporated as a Delaware corporation on August 29, 2006. Our principal executive office is located at 53 West Jackson Boulevard, Suite 1618, Chicago, Illinois 60604, and our telephone number is (312) 972-1662.

The Company was formed to own and commercially develop our patented point-of-sale technology for the activation and processing of transactions related to debit styled cards, which include gift cards, phone cards and other stored value cards. Currently, our business strategy consists exclusively of attempting to enter into license agreements with third parties to license our rights under our patent and in pursuing patent litigation in an effort to protect our intellectual property and obtain recourse against alleged infringement of our patent. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, our sole revenues from operations were generated from settlements of patent litigation with third parties pursuant to which such third parties paid us royalties for use of our patent.

In order to develop our business plan, we will require funds for working capital. The Company is currently being funded by the sale of its common stock and revenue from litigation settlements. The Company anticipates increasing its sources of funds in the future by entering into license agreements with third parties to license the use of its patent. However, no such agreements have been entered into at this time, and the Company cannot predict when, if ever, it will enter into such agreements.

Table of Contents

We were formerly a wholly owned subsidiary of MedCom USA Incorporated (“MedCom”). In October 2006, MedCom announced its intention to spin-off its card technology business from its other businesses. In connection with our formation, MedCom transferred a patent relating to its card technology business to us in exchange for 146,770,504 shares of our common stock. On October 31, 2006, MedCom's board of directors declared a stock dividend to its shareholders of record at the end of business on December 15, 2006 of one share of our common stock for every one share of common stock of MedCom owned by its shareholders. On March 1, 2007, MedCom distributed 86,770,504 shares of our common stock to its shareholders pursuant to the stock dividend and retained the balance of 60,000,000 shares of our common stock. MedCom remains our largest shareholder.

Description of Our Patent

Our principal asset is our patented payment technology that we acquired from MedCom in connection with our spin-off. The payment technology is covered by one patent which was assigned to us by MedCom upon our formation (U.S. Patent No. 6,032,859, entitled “METHOD FOR PROCESSING DEBIT PURCHASE TRANSACTIONS USING A COUNTER-TOP TERMINAL SYSTEM”). The patent covers methods for processing debit purchase transactions made using debit-styled cards, including gift cards. The patent emerged from a reexamination proceeding on October 5, 2010 in which the Patent Office confirmed the patentability of claims in the patent.

U.S. patents generally have a term of 20 years from the date of the patent application. The application for the ‘859 patent was filed in September 1997 and subsequently granted on March 7, 2000. Based on that application date, the patent has a remaining term of approximately six years and will expire in 2017.

Business Strategy

Our business strategy consists exclusively of attempting to enter into license agreements with third parties to license our rights under our patent and in pursuing patent litigation in an effort to protect our intellectual property and obtain recourse against alleged infringement of our patent. We are presently engaged in an aggressive program to identify potential third-party infringers of our patent, notify such third-parties of their infringement and seek licensing fees for the use of our patent. We may obtain such licensing fees pursuant to license agreements entered into by the Company and the third-parties, or we may pursue patent litigation to obtain remedies for infringement. We intend to aggressively enforce our rights during the entire life of the patent, and to seek royalty payments from all infringing parties until the patent expires in 2017.

Licensing the use of our patented technology

We have identified hundreds of retail chains who the Company believes are utilizing our patented technology with the use of debit cards, gift cards, phone cards, affinity cards and stored value cards. We have, through our attorneys, sent letters to these retailers notifying them of their potential infringement on our patent and requesting that the retailers enter into negotiations with the Company regarding a license agreement for the patent. The letters also notify the retailers of the Company's intent to pursue legal action to enforce its rights with respect to the patent should the retailers choose not to negotiate a licensing agreement. The Company has and continues to negotiate licenses with several retailers that responded to the correspondence. We intend to generate revenues by charging licensing fees to the retailers who are utilizing our patented technology and voluntarily entering into licensing agreements.

Table of Contents

Patent infringement settlements

We also generate revenue through settlements with retailers who are infringing on our patent. Since our acquisition of the patent from MedCom, we have, through our attorneys, initiated lawsuits against 38 major retailers, and we have entered into settlement and license agreements with 14 retailers. The terms of these settlement and license agreements are typically confidential and grant a non-exclusive license to the retailers in exchange for royalty fees. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, our sole revenues from operations were generated from settlements of patent litigation with third parties pursuant to which such third parties paid us royalties for use of our patent. In addition, we recently announced our intent to file additional lawsuits against major retailers in the near future.

In the ordinary course of our patent litigation, we are the subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal actions regarding the validity of the patent. As a part of these actions, we have been involved in "Markman Hearings," which are proceedings under U.S. patent law in which plaintiffs and defendants present their arguments to the court as to how they believe the patent claims – which define the scope of the patent holder's rights under the patent – should be interpreted for purposes of determining at trial whether the patent is valid and/or has been infringed. Other parties may take actions to challenge our patent. We can make no assurances that we will not lose all or some of the claims covered by our patent as the result of such challenges or other litigation, including actions initiated by us, regarding our patent.

Marketing

We market our technology to retailers and other companies who utilize point of sale technology. Our primary market is the hundreds of retailers who we believe are utilizing our patented technology. Since inception the Company has negotiated with and actively pursued infringers of our patent. If the Company is successful in the pursuit of the patent infringers and in its licensing program, we anticipate receiving the appropriate royalties from the use of our technology by third parties by allowing licensing arrangements to our technology and anticipated royalties for the use of our patent.

Description of the Industry

The use of debit-styled cards by consumers has been expanding rapidly throughout the United States. Significant uses include phone cards populated with value by retailers, the expansion of gift cards at major department and big box stores, the creation of affinity cards by retailers building customer loyalty, and the sale of these cards in supermarkets, convenience stores, coffee shops and other outlets. Retailers continue to add this product offering to augment their sales efforts.

Table of Contents

The retailer benefits significantly because it receives revenue from the customer and does not incur the cost of providing goods and services until the customer actually utilizes the card at time of purchase. Other benefits to retailers for the use of debit-styled cards include the fact that not all cards are fully utilized or used at all thereby providing a 100% profit to the retailer for the amount not used, merchandise returns are reduced, potential new customers are created and the amount of purchase is potentially increased.

Competition

Competition in the technology industry is intense. As technologies advance there is always a risk of new technology and more competition. The overall market of the gift and affinity cards is significant and continues to grow.

We are actively seeking to license our technology and believe that many retailers, gas stations, phone companies and others that utilize stored value cards, such as gift and debit, are infringing on our patent.

Employees

At September 30, 2010, the Company was managed by its sole officer and director, Robert Kite. We have no other full or part-time employees. Our business operations are focused on the patent infringement activity and the protection of our patent through our legal counsel and are conducted through the use of consultants and our administrative services agreement with MedCom which we entered into in connection with our spin-off.

Available Information

We file annual and quarterly reports and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You may read and copy any document that we file at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Public Reference Room at 100 F Street, N.E., Washington, D.C., 20549. Please call 1-800-SEC-0330 for further information on the operation of the Public Reference Room. Reports and other information regarding issuers, including us, that file electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission are also available to the public from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Web site at http://www.sec.gov.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS.

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

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

The Company does not maintain any properties.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

In the ordinary course of business, we are the subject of, or party to, various pending or threatened legal actions, including various counterclaims in connection with our intellectual property enforcement activities. Card Activation, through its attorneys, has sent letters to over 600 potential infringers of the patent, placing the infringers on notice of the patent and seeking a license agreement under the patent. While we believe that any liability arising from these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows, we can make no assurances that we will not lose all or some of the claims covered by our patent as the result of such actions.

Table of Contents

On February 26, 2010, the Company and MedCom entered into a Settlement Agreement (the "Agreement") and Mutual Release with William Williams (a former executive of the Company and MedCom), Eva Williams, Wilcom Inc., W.P.W. Aircraft, LLC, Williams Family Trust, and American Nortel Communications, Inc. (collectively, the "Williams Group"). The Agreement settled and provided a mutual release of each member of the Williams Group, on the one hand, and the Company and MedCom, on the other hand, from any and all claims that any member of the Williams Group and the Company or MedCom has against the other relating to certain litigation that was filed or corporate governance claims that may arise from the Company or MedCom. As a condition to the Agreement, the Williams Group will return an aggregate of 24,150,264 shares of common stock of the Company and 20,415,651 shares of MedCom common stock.

The Company currently has four cases pending, and four cases were settled in 2010 in connection with our intellectual property enforcement activities. The Company believes disclosure of the amounts received in the settlement of those cases would cause competitive harm in the cases that are still pending and, therefore, has omitted such disclosure.

Information regarding the Company's legal proceedings outside the ordinary course of business is disclosed under Notes 5 and 6 to the Company's Financial Statements of Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.

This report includes forward-looking statements. Generally, the words “believes,” “anticipates,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “continue,” and similar expressions or the negative thereof or comparable terminology are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including the matters set forth in this report or other reports or documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those projected. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements which speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update these forward-looking statements.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes thereto and other financial information contained elsewhere in this Form 10-K.

Overview

We own and commercially develop our patented method of processing debit purchase transactions, which include gift cards, phone cards and other stored value cards. Currently, our business strategy consists exclusively of attempting to enter into license agreements with third parties to license our rights under our patent and in pursuing patent litigation in an effort to protect our intellectual property and obtain recourse against alleged infringement of our patent.

Results of Operations

Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2010, Compared to Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2009

Revenues decreased 30.8% to $687,500 for the year ended September 30, 2010 from $993,000 for the year ended September 30, 2009. The decrease in revenues was due to four settlements in 2010 compared to ten settlements during 2009.

Operating expenses consist of cost of revenue, general and administrative expenses and sales and marketing costs.

Table of Contents

Cost of revenue consists of contingency fees paid to legal counsel of 35% of settlement revenue in certain cases. Cost of revenue decreased 50.9% to $170,625 for the year ended September 30, 2010 from $347,550 for the year ended September 30, 2009 as a result of decreased revenue and the fact that all of our settlements are not subject to contingency fees.

General and administrative expenses consist of salaries and benefits, legal, professional and consulting fees, corporate costs, facilities cost, insurance, travel and entertainment. General and administrative costs increased 226.2% to $1,858,060 for the year ended September 30, 2010 from $569,606 for the year ended September 30, 2009. This increase was primarily due to a reserve for affiliate receivable and increased legal fees offset by decreased salaries, benefits and rent expenses.

Sales and marketing costs decreased 100.0% to zero for the year ended September 30, 2010 from $5,434 for the year ended September 30, 2009 due to no marketing efforts.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's operating requirements have historically been funded from the sale of our common stock and litigation settlement revenue. We expect our future operations will be funded from the litigation revenue settlements as well as revenues from licensing our technology. In addition, the Company is researching potential business combinations that would utilize our technology or enhance our strategy, although no such target acquisition has been identified.

In order to develop our business plan, we will require funds for working capital. We are attempting to raise additional working capital through the sale of equity, debt or a combination of equity and debt. We do not presently have any firm commitments for additional working capital and there are no assurances that such capital will be available to us when needed or upon terms and conditions which are acceptable to us. If we are able to secure additional working capital through the sale of equity securities, the ownership interests of our current stockholders will be diluted. If we raise additional working capital through the issuance of debt or additional dividend paying securities our future interest and dividend expenses will increase. If we are unable to secure additional working capital as needed, our ability to grow our sales, meet our operating and financing obligations as they become due and continue our business and operations could be in jeopardy.

The Company is currently being funded by the sale of its common stock and revenue from litigation settlements. The Company anticipates increasing its sources of funds in the future by entering into license agreements with third parties to license the use of its patent. However, no such agreements have been entered into at this time, and the Company cannot predict when, if ever, it will enter into such agreements. Management anticipates that the Company's current funds will be able to sustain the Company through the end of the fiscal year, at which point the Company may be required to seek additional financing through a financial institution or through the sale of equity, debt, or a combination of equity or debt, if the Company has not received additional funding through litigation settlements at that time. The Company does not have any contractual commitments that would be impacted by a loss of funding at this time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, we are required to make estimates and assumptions about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Those estimates and assumptions are derived and continually evaluated based on historical experience, current facts and circumstances, and changes in the business environment. However, actual results may sometimes differ materially from estimates under different conditions. We have summarized our significant accounting policies in Note 1 to our financial statements. Of the accounting policies, we believe the following may involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue is recognized from litigation settlements received from companies that have violated our patented technology and is recorded upon receipt. Revenue is recognized from the receipt of royalties or licensing fees from the use of our patent technology and is recorded when sales are generated from third parties that have generated sales from the use of our technology. We have no licensing agreements executed that generate royalty payments at this time.

Recent Accounting Guidance

Updates issued and adopted

On September 30, 2009, the Company adopted updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to the authoritative hierarchy of GAAP. These changes establish the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (ASC) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead the FASB will issue Accounting Standards Updates. Accounting Standards Updates will not be authoritative in their own right as they will only serve to update the Codification. These changes and the Codification itself do not change GAAP. Other than the manner in which new accounting guidance is referenced, the adoption of these changes had no impact on the Financial Statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“ASC 105”), which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the source of GAAP to be applied to nongovernmental agencies. ASC 105 explicitly recognizes rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws as authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. ASC 105 became effective for interim or annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. ASC 105 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements presented hereby.

Table of Contents

In May 2009, the FASB issued guidance now codified as ASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events” (“ASC 855”). The pronouncement modifies the definition of what qualifies as a subsequent event – those events or transactions that occur following the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are issued, or are available to be issued – and requires companies to disclose the date through which it has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for determining that date. The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 855 in September 30, 2009, in accordance with the effective date.

On June 30, 2009, the Company adopted updates issued by the FASB to fair value disclosures of financial instruments. These changes require a publicly traded company to include disclosures about the fair value of its financial instruments. Such disclosures include the fair value of all financial instruments, for which it is practicable to estimate that value, whether recognized or not recognized in the statement of financial position; the related carrying amount of these financial instruments; and the method(s) and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value. Other than the required disclosures, the adoption of these changes had no impact on the Financial Statements.

Other Considerations

There are numerous factors that affect the business and the results of its operations. Sources of these factors include general economic and business conditions, federal and state regulation of business activities, the level of demand for our product, and the ability to develop new products based on new or evolving technology and the market's acceptance of those products.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Card Activation Technologies, Inc. as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit 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 audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Card Activation Technologies, Inc. as of September 30, 2010 and 2009, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed further in Note 2, the Company has incurred significant losses. The Company's viability is dependent upon its ability to obtain future financing and the success of its future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2010 AND 2009

NOTE 1 – BACKGROUND

Card Activation Technologies, Inc. (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware on August 29, 2006. The Company was incorporated in order to own and commercially develop our patented point-of-sale technology for the activation and processing of transactions related to debit styled cards, which include gift cards, phone cards and other stored value cards. We also vigorously defend our patent and actively litigate infringements related to the unauthorized use of our technology. The patent was transferred to us by MedCom USA, Incorporated (“MedCom”) upon our formation in exchange for 146,770,504 shares of our common stock. The patent covers the technology and process for taking a card with a magnetic strip or other data capture mechanism and activating the card by down loading a determined monetary value onto the card for use at a later date for different types of transactions.

NOTE 2 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. During the year ended September 30, 2010 the Company recognized a net loss of $1,249.633. However, the Company incurred an accumulated net loss from period August 29, 2006 (Inception) through September 30, 2010 of $1,729,984. Further, the Company has inadequate working capital to maintain or develop its operations, and is dependent upon funds from private investors and the support of certain stockholders.

These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties. In this regard, Management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds through loans and additional sales of its common stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital.

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant accounting policies are as follows:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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. These estimates and assumptions also affect the reported amounts of revenues, costs and expenses during the reporting period. Management evaluates these estimates and assumptions on a regular basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. At September 30, 2010, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in the bank.

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are provided based on the provisions of ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", to reflect the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 740; “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes-An Interpretation of ASC Topic 740 (“Topic 740”). Topic 740 contains a two-step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not, that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount, which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company considers many factors when evaluating and estimating the Company’s tax positions and tax benefits, which may require periodic adjustments. At September 30, 2010, the Company did not record any liabilities for uncertain tax positions.

Earnings per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock that could share in the earnings of the Company. As of September 30, 2010, there were no potential dilutive instruments that could result in share dilution.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The company financial instruments consist primarily of cash, affiliate receivable, settlement receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses and debt. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments approximate their respective estimated fair value due to the short-term maturities and approximate market interest rates of these instruments. The estimated fair value is not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize in a current market exchange or from future earnings or cash flows.

Table of Contents

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements (“ASC Topic 820”), which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The standard provides a consistent definition of fair value which focuses on an exit price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The standard also prioritizes, within the measurement of fair value, the use of market-based measurements.

The three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements is defined as follows:

·	Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;

Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable of the asset or liability other than quoted prices, either directly or indirectly including inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;

·	Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company applies Topic 718 “Share-Based Payments” (Topic 718”) to share-based compensation, which requires the measurement of the cost of services received in exchange for an award of an equity instrument based on the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation cost is recognized when the event occurs. The Black-Scholes option pricing model is used to estimate the fair value of options granted.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of interest-bearing deposits, money market funds and debt instruments in financial institutions. Cash and cash equivalents are not in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment, and purchased intangibles, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Goodwill and other intangible assets are tested for impairment. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. There were no events or changes in circumstances that necessitated an impairment of long-lived assets.

Table of Contents

Recent Accounting Updates

Updates issued and adopted

On September 30, 2009, the Company adopted updates issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) to the authoritative hierarchy of GAAP. These changes establish the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM (ASC) as the source of authoritative accounting principles recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The FASB will no longer issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions, or emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts; instead the FASB will issue Accounting Standards Updates. Accounting Standards Updates will not be authoritative in their own right as they will only serve to update the Codification. These changes and the Codification itself do not change GAAP. Other than the manner in which new accounting guidance is referenced, the adoption of these changes had no impact on the Financial Statements.

Table of Contents

NOTE 4 - INCOME TAXES

The Company adopted ASC Topic 740 which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are insignificant.

For income tax reporting purposes, the Company’s aggregate unused net operating losses approximate $1,728,506 which expire in various years through 2029, subject to limitations of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. The Company has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating loss benefit, because in the opinion of management based upon the earning history of the Company, it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be realized.

Under the Tax Reform Act of 1986, the benefits from net operating losses carried forward may be impaired or limited on certain circumstances. Events which may cause limitations in the amount of net operating losses that the Company may utilize in any one year include, but are not limited to, a cumulative ownership changes of more than 50% over a three-year period. The impact of any limitations that may be imposed for future issuances of equity securities, including issuances with respect to acquisitions have not been determined.

The provision (benefit) for income taxes from continued operations for the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 consist of the following:

NOTE 5 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company also has a contingency agreement with its attorneys that represent the Company in the patent litigation. The attorneys are paid thirty five percent of any settlement entered into by the Company, other cases are handled on an hourly fee basis.

The Company was a party to litigation in federal court involving certain related parties, which was recently dismissed. The Company was a plaintiff, along with MedCom, in a lawsuit against prior management, Michael Malet and Annette Malet, and William P. Williams, Eva S. Williams and certain of their affiliated entities, Wilcom, Inc., a Texas Corporation, WPW Aircraft LLC, an Arizona Limited Liability Corporation and American Nortel Communications, Inc., a Nevada Corporation, which was filed in February 2009 in the United States District Court in the District of Arizona (Case No. 2:09-cv-00298). The Company alleged nine causes of action including, among other things, securities fraud, racketeering, and other state law causes of actions, which related to alleged acts arising out of certain of the defendants’ prior service as management of the Company and MedCom. The Company and MedCom were seeking certain compensatory damages, punitive damages, treble damages, injunctive relief and disgorgement of personal profits and compensation realized by the defendants and reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses associated with the lawsuit. In August 2009, the parties filed a stipulation for dismissal without prejudice, which was approved by the court pursuant to an order issued on August 25, 2009. The parties intend to seek to resolve the claims outside the context of a court proceeding to mitigate expenses. To this end, the parties have entered in tolling agreements preserving claims against statutes of limitations and other applicable time-based defenses. If the parties can’t reach a resolution, the Company and MedCom may seek to reinstate the litigation. The Company is uncertain of the legal costs associated with this suit or its ultimate outcome.

NOTE 6 – RELATED PARTY

As of September 30, 2009, the Company was managed by its sole officer and director, Robert H. Kite. Michael De La Garza previously served as a director of the Company and as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. On April 27, 2009, holders of more than a majority of the outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock, acting by written consent, effected the removal of Mr. De La Garza from the Company’s Board of Directors. Following Mr. De La Garza’s removal as a director by stockholders, Mr. Kite, the Company’s sole director, acted to remove Mr. De La Garza from his position as President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Kite now serves as sole director and Chairman of the Company’s Board of Directors and acts as the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officer. Mr. Kite also serves as chairman of the board of directors, president and chief executive officer of MedCom, a related party, and owns shares of common stock of both MedCom and the Company. MedCom is also a significant shareholder of the Company. He also serves in the same capacity of MedCom, a related party and significant shareholder. Additionally Mr. Kite is a significant shareholder of both entities.

On June 4, 2009, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with Mr. De La Garza, MedCom, certain shareholders of MedCom, Robin De La Garza, Mr. De La Garza’s spouse, PayMed USA, LLC, and Absolute Medical Software Systems, LLC (the “Settlement Agreement”). The Settlement Agreement resolved pending Arizona state court litigation against Mr. De La Garza, in which the Company’s largest shareholder, MedCom, sought, among other things, injunctive and declaratory relief that Mr. De La Garza was not authorized to act on behalf of MedCom as an officer or director. The Settlement Agreement became final and effective on August 11, 2009.

Under the terms of the Settlement Agreement, Mr. De La Garza affirmed in writing that he holds no position with the Company, whether as an officer, a director or otherwise, and he resigned from any such position to the extent he could be said to hold any such position, which resolved any potential disputes relating to his removal from such offices in April 2009, as discussed above.

On October 1, 2008 the Company issued 96,000 shares of common stock to a related party, American Nortel Communications Inc. The issuances were valued at $.088 per share and the Company recognized compensation expenses to William P. Williams of $8,448.

On October 21, 2008, the Company issued 3,000,000 shares of common stock in benefit of its related party, MedCom, for that company's acquisition of PayMed LLC. The value of the shares was $.088 per share, its trading value at the date of issue. The Company recorded a receivable from MedCom in the amount of $294,000. In connection with the Settlement Agreement discussed above, this transaction will be unraveled whereby the ownership of PayMed LLC will revert back to the previous owner and the shares of our common stock will be returned to us.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our principal executive officer, who also serves as our principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our principal executive officer has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective for ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. We are in the process of evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures in an effort to develop remedial measures to correct the deficiencies.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our principal executive officer, who also serves as our principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Our internal control over financial reporting is designed 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.

It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of certain events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Our principal executive officer conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2010. This assessment was based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or COSO, in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. Based on this assessment, our principal executive officer has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2010 was not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the possible material weakness described below, and other factors related to the Company’s financial reporting processes.

The Company and its independent registered public accounting firm identified certain significant internal control deficiencies that we considered to be, in the aggregate, a material weakness. The primary concern was the preparation of the stock subscription agreements and the proper depositing of cash received. During the year ended September 30, 2009 the Company issued and sold stock to third parties through a subscription agreement, however, the Company requested the investors to write the checks in the name of MedCom, a related party. These payments were deposited in Medcom, a related party. The company accounted for these deposits as affiliate receivables and accrues interest at a rate of seven percent annually. Due to the size of our Company and the costs associated to remediate these issues, we still consider these concerns to be relevant.

The Company is in the process of evaluating its internal control over financial reporting in an effort to develop remedial measures to correct the deficiencies.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
