Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained in this report that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements that represent management’s beliefs and assumptions based on currently available information. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our search for an operating company, possible or assumed future operations, business strategies, need for financing, competitive position, potential growth opportunities, ability to retain and recruit personnel, the effects of competition and the effects of future legislation or regulations. Forward-looking statements include all statements that are not historical facts and can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “believes,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “could,” “plans,” or comparable terminology or by discussions of strategy or trends. Although we believe t hat the expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot give any assurances that these expectations will prove to be correct. Such statements by their nature involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such forward-looking statements.
Among the factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially are the risks and uncertainties discussed in this report. While it is not possible to identify all factors, we continue to face many risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, changes in regulation of shell or blank check companies; the general economic downturn; a further downturn in the securities markets; our ability to raise needed operating funds and continue as a going concern; and other risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks materialize (or the consequences of such a development worsen), or should the underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from those expected. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update publicly or revise such statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
There may also be other risks and uncertainties that we are unable to identify and/or predict at this time or that we do not now expect to have a material adverse impact on our business.
Introductory Comment
Throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K, unless otherwise designated, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “the Company” and “our Company” refer to Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc., a Nevada corporation.
PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
Overview and Development Since the Beginning of 2008
Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc., was incorporated in the state of Nevada on November 6, 1996, to research and publish a self-improvement book based on the insights and understandings of major world cultures. The working title for the proposed book was Personal Freedom and Prosperity. We did not publish the book, but instead used materials gathered during our research to develop a series of eight self-help workshops. Each self-taught workshop consisted of an audiotape and a workbook. The workshops were sold online under a marketing agreement with Life Discovery Institute, a related party that maintained a website dedicated to self-improvement products and education. As of December 31, 2008, we have total revenue of $3,560 since inception on November 6, 1996. Because we had not generated the expected revenue, in October 2005 we ceased all business operations and decided to pursue other business opportunities.
In October 2006 the Company approved a 1-for-2.5 reverse stock split. Effective November 9, 2007, we decreased our authorized common shares from 50,000,000 to 25,000,000 and correspondingly decreased our outstanding common stock through a 1-for-2 reverse split from 5,200,000 to approximately 2,600,000 shares. Effective on or about March 25, 2008, we increased our authorized common stock to 100,000,000 without affecting our outstanding shares. All shares designated in this report give effect to the reverse stock splits unless otherwise indicated.

Business of the Company
Selection of a Business
The Company anticipates that businesses for possible acquisition will be referred by various sources, including its sole officer and director, shareholders, professional advisors, securities broker-dealers, venture capitalists, members of the financial community, and others who may present unsolicited proposals. The Company will not engage in any general solicitation or advertising for a business opportunity, and will rely on personal contacts of its sole officer and director and his affiliates, as well as indirect associations between him and other business and professional people. By relying on “word of mouth,” the Company may be limited in the number of potential acquisitions it can identify. While it is not presently anticipated that the Company will engage unaffiliated professional firms specializing in business acquisitions or reorganizations, such firms may be retained if management deems it in the best interest of the Company.
Compensation to a finder or business acquisition firm may take various forms, including a one-time cash payment, payments based on a percentage of revenues or product sales volume, payments involving issuance of securities (including those of the Company), or any combination of these or other compensation arrangements. Consequently, the Company is currently unable to predict the cost of utilizing such services.
The Company will not restrict its search to any particular business, industry, or geographical location, and management may evaluate and enter into any type of business in any location. The Company may participate in a newly organized business venture or a more established company entering a new phase of growth or in need of additional capital to overcome existing financial problems. Participation in a new business venture entails greater risks since in many instances management of such a venture will not have proved its ability, the eventual market of such venture’s product or services will likely not be established, and the profitability of the venture will be unproved and cannot be predicted accurately. If the Company participates in a more established firm with existing financial problems, it may be subjected to risk because the financial resources of the Company may not be adequate to eliminate or reverse the circumstances leading to such financial problems.
In seeking a business venture, the decision of management will not be controlled by an attempt to take advantage of any anticipated or perceived appeal of a specific industry, management group, product, or industry, but will be based on the business objective of seeking long-term capital appreciation in the real value of the Company.
The analysis of new businesses will be undertaken by or under the supervision of the sole officer and director. In analyzing prospective businesses, management will consider, to the extent applicable, the following: the available technical, financial, and managerial resources, working capital and other prospects for the future, the nature of present and expected competition, the quality and experience of management services which may be available and the depth of that management, the potential for further research, development, or exploration, the potential for growth and expansion, the potential for profit, the perceived public recognition or acceptance of products, services, or trade or service marks, name identification and other relevant factors.
The decision to participate in a specific business may be based on management’s analysis of the quality of the other firm’s management and personnel, the anticipated acceptability of new products or marketing concepts, the merit of technological changes, and other factors which are difficult, if not impossible, to analyze through any objective criteria. It is anticipated that the results of operations of a specific firm may not necessarily be indicative of the potential for the future because of the requirement to substantially shift marketing approaches, expand significantly, change product emphasis, change or substantially augment management, and other factors.
The Company will analyze all available factors and make a determination based on a composite of available facts, without reliance on any single factor. The period within which the Company may participate in a business cannot be predicted and will depend on circumstances beyond the Company’s control, including the availability of businesses, the time required for the Company to complete its investigation and analysis of prospective businesses, the time required to prepare appropriate documents and agreements providing for the Company’s participation, and other circumstances.
Acquisition of a Business
In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, the Company may become a party to a merger, consolidation, or other reorganization with another corporation or entity; joint venture; license; purchase and sale of assets; or purchase and sale of stock, the exact nature of which cannot now be predicted. The structure of the particular business acquisition will be approved by the Board of Directors and may not require the approval of the Company’s shareholders. Notwithstanding the above, the Company does not intend to participate in a business through the purchase of minority stock positions. Upon the consummation of a transaction, it is likely that the present management and shareholders of the Company will not be in control of the Company. In addition, it is anticipated that the current sole officer and director would resign in favor of new management designated by the target company without a vote of the Company’s stockholders.
5
In the event the Company enters into an acquisition transaction with another entity, the Company will be required to report the transaction in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days following the execution of the agreement, and any amendment thereto, and within four business days following the closing of the transaction. In addition, because the Company is a shell company, if the transaction results in the Company no longer being a shell company, it will be required to file within four business days a Current Report on Form 8-K which includes the information that would be required if the Company were filing a general form for registration of securities on Form 10 reflecting the Company and its securities upon consummation of the transaction, including information on the new business and management of the Company after closing.
In connection with the Company’s acquisition of a business, the present shareholders of the Company, including current management, may, as a negotiated element of the acquisition, sell a portion or all of the Company’s Common Stock held by them at a significant premium over their original investment in the Company. It is not unusual for affiliates of the entity participating in the reorganization to negotiate to purchase shares held by the present shareholders in order to reduce the number of “restricted securities” held by persons no longer affiliated with the Company and thereby reduce the potential adverse impact on the public market in the Company’s Common Stock that could result from substantial sales of such shares after the restrictions no longer apply. As a result of such sales, affiliates of the entity participating in the business reorganization with the Company would acquire a higher percentage of equity ownership in the Company. Public investors will not receive any portion of the premium that may be paid in the foregoing circumstances. Furthermore, the Company’s shareholders may not be afforded an opportunity to approve or consent to any particular stock buy-out transaction.
In the event sales of shares by present stockholders of the Company, including current management, is a negotiated element of a future acquisition, a conflict of interest may arise because our sole director will be negotiating for the acquisition on behalf of the Company and for sale of his or shareholders’ shares for his own or the shareholders’ respective accounts. Where a business opportunity is well suited for acquisition by the Company, but affiliates of the business opportunity impose a condition that management sell shares at a price which is unacceptable to our sole director, management may not sacrifice his or the shareholders’ financial interest for the Company to complete the transaction. Where the business opportunity is not well suited, but the price offered management for the shares is high, management will be tempted to effect the acquisition to realize a substantial gain on the shares in the Company. Management has not adopted any policy for resolving the foregoing potential conflicts, should they arise, and does not intend to obtain an independent appraisal to determine whether any price that may be offered for their shares is fair. Stockholders must rely, instead, on the obligation of management to fulfill its fiduciary duty under state law to act in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.
It is anticipated that any securities issued in any such reorganization would be issued in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable federal and state securities laws. Securities, including shares of the Company’s Common Stock, issued by the Company in such a transaction would be “restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under amendments to Rule 144 recently adopted by the Commission, and which took effect on February 15, 2008, these restricted securities could not be resold under Rule 144 until the following conditions were met: the Company ceased to be a shell company; it remained subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations; filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding 12 months; and at least one year had elapsed from the time the Company filed “Form 10 information” reflecting the fact that it had ceased to be a shell company. In some circumstances, however, as a negotiated element of the transaction, the Company may agree to register such securities either at the time the transaction is consummated, under certain conditions, or at specified times thereafter. Although the terms of such registration rights and the number of securities, if any, which may be registered cannot be predicted, it may be expected that registration of securities by the Company in these circumstances would entail substantial expense to the Company. The issuance of substantial additional securities and their potential sale into any trading market that may develop in the Company’s securities may have a depressive effect on such market.
While the actual terms of a transaction to which the Company may be a party cannot be predicted, it may be expected that the parties to the business transaction will find it desirable to structure the acquisition as a so-called “tax-free” event under sections 351 or 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, (the “Code”). In order to obtain tax-free treatment under section 351 of the Code, it would be necessary for the owners of the acquired business to own 80% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. In such event, the shareholders of the Company would retain less than 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. Section 368(a)(1) of the Code provides for tax-free treatment of certain business reorganizations between corporate entities where one corporation is merged with or acquires the securities or assets of another corporation. Generally, the Company will be the acquiring corporation in such a business reorganizat ion, and the tax-free status of the transaction will not depend on the issuance of any specific amount of the Company’s voting securities. It is not uncommon, however, that as a negotiated element of a transaction completed in reliance on section 368, the acquiring corporation issue securities in such an amount that the shareholders of the acquired corporation will hold 50% or more of the voting stock of the surviving entity. Consequently, there is a substantial possibility that the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the transaction would retain substantially less than 50% of the issued and outstanding shares of the surviving entity. It is anticipated that these shareholders would in fact retain less than 5% control of the Company after a reverse acquisition.
6
Therefore, regardless of the form of the business acquisition, it may be anticipated that stockholders immediately prior to the transaction will experience a significant reduction in their percentage of ownership in the Company.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Company is technically the acquiring entity in the foregoing circumstances, generally accepted accounting principles will ordinarily require that such transaction be accounted for as a capital transaction by the other entity owning the business and, therefore, will not permit a write-up in the carrying value of the assets of the other company.
The manner in which the Company participates in a business will depend on the nature of the business, the respective needs and desires of the Company and other parties, the management of the business, and the relative negotiating strength of the Company and such other management.
The Company will participate in a business only after the negotiation and execution of appropriate written agreements. Although the terms of such agreements cannot be predicted, generally such agreements will require specific representations and warranties by all of the parties thereto, will specify certain events of default, will detail the terms of closing and the conditions which must be satisfied by each of the parties prior to such closing, will outline the manner of bearing costs if the transaction is not closed, will set forth remedies on default, and will include miscellaneous other terms.
Operation of Business After Acquisition
The Company’s operation following its acquisition of a business will be dependent on the nature of the business and the interest acquired. It is unlikely that current shareholders would be in control of the Company or that present management would be in control of the Company following the acquisition. It may be expected that the business will present various risks, which cannot be predicted at the present time.
Governmental Regulation
It is impossible to predict the government regulation, if any, to which the Company may be subject until it has acquired an interest in a business. The use of assets and/or conduct of businesses that the Company may acquire could subject it to environmental, public health and safety, land use, trade, or other governmental regulations and state or local taxation. In selecting a business in which to acquire an interest, management will endeavor to ascertain, to the extent of the limited resources of the Company, the effects of such government regulation on the prospective business of the Company. In certain circumstances, however, such as the acquisition of an interest in a new or start-up business activity, it may not be possible to predict with any degree of accuracy the impact of government regulation. The inability to ascertain the effect of government regulation on a prospective business activity will make the acquisition of an interest in such business a higher risk.
Competition
The Company will be involved in intense competition with other business entities, many of which will have a competitive edge over the Company by virtue of their stronger financial resources and prior experience in business. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in obtaining suitable investments.
Employees
The Company currently has no employees. Neil Christiansen, the Company’s President and principal shareholder, will devote such time to the affairs of the Company as he deems appropriate. Management of the Company expects to use consultants, attorneys, and accountants as necessary, and does not anticipate a need to engage any full- time employees so long as it is seeking and evaluating businesses. The future need for employees and their availability will be addressed in connection with a decision whether or not to acquire or participate in a specific business industry.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
As a smaller reporting company, we have elected not to provide the information required by this item.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
Because we are neither an accelerated filer or a large accelerated filer, nor a well-known seasoned issuer, we have elected not to provide the information required by this item. Nevertheless, the Company has no outstanding comments from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission in regard to our periodic or current reports under the Exchange Act which remain unresolved.
7
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
The Company has no office facilities and does not presently anticipate the need to lease commercial office space or facilities. For now the home of Neil Christiansen, the President and principal shareholder, is being used as the Company address. The Company may lease commercial office facilities in the future at such time as operations have developed to the point where the facilities are needed, but has no commitments or arrangements for any facilities. There is no assurance regarding the future availability of commercial office facilities or terms on which the Company may be able to lease facilities in the future, nor any assurance regarding the length of time the present arrangement may continue.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
No legal proceedings are reportable pursuant to this item.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matters were submitted to a vote of shareholders of the Company during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

The Company’s Common Stock is considered to be penny stock under rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in these securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes risks associated with these stocks, broker-dealers’ duties, customers’ rights and remedies, market and other information, and make suitability determinations approving the customers for these stock transactions based on financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing, provide monthly account statements to customers, and obtain specific written consent of each customer. With these restrictions, the likely effect of designation as a penny stock is to decrease the willingness of broker- dealers to make a market for the stock, to decrease the liquidity of the stock and increase the transaction cost of sales and purchases of these stocks compared to other securities.
The Company has been a shell company since approximately October 2005. As a result, we are subject to the provisions of Rule 144(i) which limit reliance on the Rule by shareholders owning stock in a shell company. Under current interpretations, unregistered shares issued after the Company first became a shell company could not be resold under Rule 144 until the following conditions were met: we ceased to be a shell company; we remained subject to the Exchange Act reporting obligations; we filed all required Exchange Act reports during the preceding 12 months; and at least one year had elapsed from the time we filed “Form 10 information” reflecting the fact that we had ceased to be a shell company.
8
There are no outstanding options, warrants, or other instruments convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, except for an outstanding promissory note in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000 which is convertible into approximately 200,000 shares at the option of the note holder. We have not granted registration rights for any of the outstanding shares and there are no shares that are being, or that have been publicly proposed to be, publicly offered by the Company.
Holders
At February 24, 2010, the Company had 65 shareholders of record. The number of record holders was determined from the records of the Company’s transfer agent and does not include beneficial owners of Common Stock whose shares are held in the names of various security brokers, dealers, and registered clearing agencies. The Company has appointed Interwest Transfer Company, Inc., Salt Lake City, Utah, to act as its transfer agent for the Common Stock.
Dividends
The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock during the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, or in any subsequent period. The Company does not anticipate or contemplate paying dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable future. The only restrictions that limit the ability to pay dividends on common equity, or that are likely to do so in the future, are those restrictions imposed by law.
Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans
As of December 31, 2009, we had not adopted any compensation plans (including individual compensation arrangements) under which equity securities of the Company were authorized for issuance.
Purchases of Equity Securities
There were no purchases made during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, by or on behalf of our Company or any affiliated purchaser of shares or other units of any class of our equity securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
As a smaller reporting company, we have elected not to provide the information required by this item.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes thereto as included with this report.
Years Ended December 31, 2009 and 2008
We have at December 31, 2009, $89 available cash on hand and have a cumulative loss since inception on November 6, 1996, of $225,607. We did not generate any revenues or have operations during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. Net loss during the year ended December 31, 2009, was $24,105 compared to $40,426 for year ended December 31, 2008. Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2009, consisted of general and administrative expenses of $14,817 and interest expense of $9,288. Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2008, consisted of general and administrative expenses of $33,150 and interest expense of $7,276. The general and administrative expenses during 2009 and 2008 were primarily due to professional, legal, and accounting fees associated with our public filings.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 2009, we had $89 in available cash on hand and $130,020 in liabilities, including $6,681 of accounts payable, $117,000 in shareholder advances, and $6,339 in convertible notes payable and accrued interest. We had a working capital deficit of approximately $124,931 at December 31, 2009.
We anticipate our expenses for the next twelve months will be approximately $24,000. At the present time management does not believe the Company has sufficient working capital to meet its needs for the year ending December 31, 2010. Therefore, management will seek financing through loans or sale of common stock. The president and shareholders have advanced the Company a total of $117,000. Management anticipates that it will rely on further advances from our president, or shareholders, to meet the Company’s short-term cash needs. However, the Company has no agreements to that effect.
9
Our need for capital may change dramatically if we acquire an interest in a business opportunity during that period. Although we have entered into negotiations with a company, we currently have no understandings, commitments or agreements with respect to the acquisition of any business venture, and there can be no assurance that we will identify a business venture suitable for acquisition in the future. Further, we cannot assure that we will be successful in consummating any acquisition on favorable terms or that we will be able to profitably manage any business venture we acquire. Should we require additional capital, we may seek additional advances from officers, sell common stock or find other forms of debt financing.
Our current operating plan is to continue searching for potential businesses, products, technologies and companies for acquisition and to handle the administrative and reporting requirements of a public company.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
During the year ended December 31, 2009, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet arrangements.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As a smaller reporting company, we have elected not to provide the disclosure required by this item.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
The financial statements required pursuant to this item are included immediately following the signature page of this report.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
There have been no changes in or disagreements with accountants reportable pursuant to this item.
ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
As a smaller reporting company, we have elected not to provide the information required by this item. Rather, we have provided the information set forth in Item 9A(T) below.
ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Our President, who serves as our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, after evaluating the effectiveness of our “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Evaluation Date”), has concluded that as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A discussion of the material weakne sses in our disclosure controls and procedures is set forth below.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fourth fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2009, that materially affected, or were reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting
Our management consists solely of Neil Christiansen, our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and our Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”), who is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act. As a result, our internal control system is limited in its scope and capabilities, although, based on our CEO/PFO’s general business experience, 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.

Because of inherent limitations of having a single officer and director, our system of internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Our management, including our sole executive and accounting officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on his evaluation, he concluded that there are material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
This material weakness relates to the monitoring and review of work performed by our CEO, who also acts as our principal financial officer in the preparation of financial statements, footnotes and financial data provided to the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm in connection with the annual audit. All of our financial reporting is carried out by our CEO/PFO, and we do not have an audit committee. 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.
Since our Company has no ongoing operations and is, at this time, a “blank check” or “shell” company, as defined in the Securities Act, we are making an effort to mitigate this material weakness to the fullest extent possible. This is done by having our CEO/PFO review all our financial reporting requirements for reasonableness. All unexpected results are investigated. At any time, if it appears that any control can be implemented to continue to mitigate such weaknesses, it will be immediately implemented. As soon as our finances allow, we plan to hire sufficient accounting staff and implement appropriate procedures for monitoring and review of work performed by our CEO/PFO.
In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) in Internal Control - Integrated Framework.
Based on our evaluation under the frameworks described above, our management has 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 the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
ITEM 9B. OTHER INFORMATION
The Company did not fail to file any information required to be filed in a report on Form 8-K during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009.

PART III
ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Current Management
The following table sets forth the name and ages of, and position or positions held by, our sole executive officer and director.
Name | Age | Position(s) | Director Since | Employment Background |
Neil Christiansen | 74 | Director, President, Chief Executive Officer, Secretary and Treasurer | 1996 | Following his college graduation, Mr. Christiansen worked in secondary education as a teacher and administrator until entering the business world in 1965, when he founded Heartland Realty in Salt Lake City, Utah. From 1976 to 1982, he served as the Republican State Chairman for Utah. In 1983, he became the founding director of Search for Common Ground, a Washington DC based organization established to engage leaders in the Soviet and U.S. governments and business in meaningful dialogue. From 1984 to 1986, he coordinated the international acquisition, shipment, and distribution of multiple speed cassette copiers into various parts of the Soviet Union for The Door of Hope. In 1986, Mr. Christiansen founded Free Indeed, a foundation dedicated to developing personal growth programs. Since 1998, he has been self-employed, devoting his time to research, publishing curricula, leading seminars and directing self-improvement workshops and conferences. |
Directors are elected to hold office until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until their successors are elected and qualified. Annual meetings of the stockholders, for the selection of directors to succeed those whose terms expire, are to be held at such time each year as designated by the Board of Directors. Officers of the Company are elected by the Board of Directors, which is required to consider that subject at its first meeting after every annual meeting of stockholders. Each officer holds his office until his successor is elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation or removal.
Code of Ethics
The Company adopted a code of ethics in 2003 that applies to its officers, directors and employees.
Overview of Director Nominating Process
The Board of Directors does not have a standing nominating committee or committee performing similar functions. The Board of Directors also does not currently have a policy for the qualification, identification, evaluation or consideration of director candidates. The Board of Directors does not believe that a defined policy with regard to the qualification, identification, evaluation or consideration of candidates recommended by stockholders is necessary at this time due to the lack of operations and the fact that we have not received any stockholder recommendations in the past. Director nominees are considered solely by our current sole director.
Audit Committee Financial Expert
Our Board of Directors performs the duties that would normally be performed by an audit committee. Given our lack of operations prior to any merger, our Board of Directors believes that its current member has sufficient knowledge and experience necessary to fulfill the duties and obligations of the audit committee for our Company. The Board of Directors has determined that the Company does not have an audit committee financial expert, due to lack of funds.
ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
Executive Compensation
Neil Christiansen has served as our chief executive officer since November 1996. Neither Mr. Christiansen, nor any other person, received any compensation from us during the years ended December 31, 2009 or 2008, which would be reportable pursuant to this item.
12
Equity Awards
Neither Mr. Christiansen, or any other person, held any unexercised options, stock that had not vested, or equity incentive plan awards at December 31, 2009.
Director Compensation
No compensation was paid to or earned by any director during the year ended December 31, 2009.
ITEM 12. SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS
Beneficial Owners of More than Five Percent, Directors, and Management
The following table sets forth certain information from reports filed by the named parties, or furnished by current management, concerning the ownership of our Common Stock as of February 2, 2010, of (i) each person who is known to us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5 percent of our Common Stock; (ii) all directors and executive officers; and (iii) our directors and executive officers as a group:
Name and Address of Beneficial Owner | Amount and Nature of Beneficial Ownership(1) | Percentage of Class(2) |
Neil Christiansen 901 East 7800 South Midvale, UT 84047 | 2,110,000(3) | 70.3% |
Executive Officers and Directors as a Group (1 Person) | 2,110,000(3) | 70.3% |
(1) This table is based upon information supplied by officers, directors and principal stockholders and Schedules 13D and 13G filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Unless otherwise indicated in the footnotes to this table, and subject to community property laws where applicable, we believe that each of the stockholders named in this table has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares indicated as beneficially owned. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and generally includes voting or investment power with respect to securities. Beneficial ownership also includes shares of stock subject to options and warrants currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this table. As of the date of this table, there are no outstanding options or warrants.
(2) Applicable percentages are based on 2,800,000 shares of our Common Stock outstanding on February 2, 2010.
(3) Includes 200,000 shares issuable upon conversion of a $5,000 convertible promissory note.
Change of Control
We anticipate that a change of control will occur when a new business venture is acquired. Our business plan is to seek and, if possible, acquire an operating entity through a reverse acquisition transaction with the operating entity. By its nature, a reverse acquisition generally entails a change in management and principal shareholders of the surviving entity. While management cannot predict the specific nature of the form of the reverse acquisition, it is anticipated that at the closing of the process, the current sole officer and director would resign in favor of persons designated by the operating company and that the shareholders of the operating entity would receive a controlling number of shares in our Company, thus effecting a change in control of the Company.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
As of December 31, 2009, the Company had not adopted any compensation plans (including individual compensation arrangements) under which equity securities of the Company were authorized for issuance.
ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions
We utilize office space provided at no charge by our president, Neil Christiansen. Management believes the use of Mr. Christiansen’s office is of negligible value as our current operations do not require any staff or independent facilities.
13
During 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006 Mr. Christiansen and shareholders advanced to the Company a total of $117,000. These advances bear no interest and are due on demand; however, the Company is imputing interest at 8% per annum.
In August 2006, Mr. Christiansen loaned the Company an additional $5,000 and was issued a convertible promissory note which accrues interest at 8% per annum and is due in August 2008. The note is convertible into 200,000 shares of common stock. In August 2008 Mr. Christiansen extended the note to February 2009, and then in January 2009 he extended the note to August 2012.
Director Independence
Our securities are not listed on a national securities exchange or in an inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that directors be independent. As a result, we have adopted the independence standards of the NYSE Amex Equities, formerly known as the American Stock Exchange, to determine the independence of our directors and those directors serving on our committees. These standards provide that a person will be considered an independent director if he or she is not an officer of the Company and is, in the view of the Company’s Board of Directors, free of any relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment. Our Board of Directors has determined that our sole director is not independent. We have no audit committee.
ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES
Fees Paid
Pritchett, Siler & Hardy, PC served as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The following fees were paid to our independent registered public accounting firm for services rendered during our last two fiscal years:
Audit Fees
The aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by our principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements, review of financial statements included in the quarterly reports and other fees that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 were $10,208 and $11,010, respectively.
Audit-Related Fees
There were no fees billed for assurance and related services by our principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the financial statements, other than those previously reported above, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Tax Fees
There were no fees billed for professional services rendered by our principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice and tax planning in the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
All Other Fees
There were no other fees billed for products or services provided by the principal accountant, other than those previously reported above, for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Audit Committee
Our auditor has not provided any non-audit services in the past and does not anticipate providing any non-audit services to the Company. In the event non-audit services are contemplated in the future, our Board of Directors, which functions in the capacity of an audit committee, will consider whether the non-audit services provided by our auditors to us would be compatible with maintaining the independence of our auditors and whether the independence of our auditors would be compromised by the provision of such services. Our Board of Directors pre-approves all auditing services and would approve any permitted non-audit services contemplated in the future, including the fees and terms of those services, to be performed for us by our independent auditor prior to engagement.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors
Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc.
Midvale, Utah
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc. [a development stage company] as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from inception on November 6, 1996 through December 31, 2009. Freedom Resources Enterprises Inc.’s management is responsible for these financial statements. 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, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating t he 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 Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc. as of December 31, 2009 and 2008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2009 and for the period from inception on November 6, 1996 through December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 7 to the financial statements, Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc. has incurred losses since its inception and has not yet established profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regards to these matters are also described in Note 7. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization - Freedom Resources Enterprises, Inc. (“the Company”) was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 6, 1996. The Company has not generated significant revenues from its planned principal operations and is considered a development stage company as defined in Accounting Standards Codification “ASC” No. 915. The Company originally planned to research and publish a self-improvement book based on the insights and understanding of major world cultures. However, the Company never published the book but instead used the materials gathered from its research to develop a series of eight self-help workshops. Because the Company has not generated expected revenue, on October 1, 2005 the Company decided to pursue other business opportunities. The Company, at the present time, is defined by the SEC as a shell company. A shell company, (other than an asset-backed issuer), is a company with no or nominal operatio ns and either no or nominal assets, or assets consisting solely of cash and cash equivalents, or assets consisting of any amount of cash and cash equivalents and nominal other assets. The Company has, at the present time, not paid any dividends and any dividends that may be paid in the future will depend upon the financial requirements of the Company and other relevant factors.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt investments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment -Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized upon being placed in service. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is computed for financial statement purposes on a straight-line method over the estimated useful life of five years.
Long-Lived Assets - The Company has adopted ASC No. 360, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company recorded an impairment write-down of $21,285 of manuscript costs.
Income Taxes -The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes” [See Note 8].
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC No. 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, on January 1, 2007. As a result of the implementation of ASC No. 740, the Company recognized approximately no increase in the liability for unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company has no tax positions at December 31, 2009 and 2008 for which the ultimate deductibility is highly certain but for which there is uncertainty about the timing of such deductibility.
The Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in operating expenses. During the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized no interest and penalties. The Company had no accruals for interest and penalties at December 31, 2009, and 2008.
Revenue Recognition - The Company’s revenue has come from the sale of items where the Company acted as an agent. The Company recognizes revenue when the product is delivered. The Company records revenues generated by the sale of items that the Company produces or purchases as inventory on the gross basis. On a gross basis, the entire sale amount is recorded as revenue. The Company records revenue generated by the sale of items where the Company only acts as an agent or when the Company has no risk of loss on the net basis. The Company records revenue generated by Internet sales utilizing third party websites on the net basis. On a net basis, only the share of revenue belonging to the Company is recorded as revenue.
Stock-Based Compensation- The Company has one stock-based employee compensation plan [See Note 5]. The Company accounts for its plan under the recognition and measurement principles of ASC No. 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” The Company has not issued any stock options or warrants under the plan.
Loss Per Share - The computation of loss per share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented in accordance with ASC No. 260, “Earnings Per Share” [See Note 10].

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – [CONTINUED]
Accounting 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, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimated.
Recently Enacted Accounting Standards -In January 2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2010-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary. This amendment to Topic 810 clarifies, but does not change, the scope of current US GAAP. It clarifies the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and removes the potential conflict between guidance in that Subtopic and asset derecognition and gain or loss recognition guidance that may exist in other US GAAP. An entity will be required to follow the amended guidance beginning in the period that it first adopts FAS 160 (now included in Subtopic 810-10). For those entities that have already adopted FAS 160, the amendments are effective at the beginning of the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. 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 limit on the amount of cash that will be distributed is not a stock dividend for purposes of applying Topics 505 and 260. 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.
In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-17, Consolidations (Topic 810): Improvements to Financial Reporting by Enterprises Involved with Variable Interest Entities. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 167.
In December 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-16, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860): Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for Statement 166.
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-15, Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing. This Accounting Standards Update amends the FASB Accounting Standard Codification for EITF 09-1. (See EITF 09-1 effective date below.)
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-14, Software (Topic 985): Certain Revenue Arrangements That Include Software Elements. This update changed the accounting model for revenue arrangements that include both tangible products and software elements. Effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-14 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements. This update addressed the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services (deliverables) separately rather than a combined unit and will be separated in more circumstances than under existing US GAAP. This amendment has eliminated the residual method of allocation. Effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. 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 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – [CONTINUED]
In September 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent). This update provides amendments to Topic 820 for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share (or its equivalent). It is effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009. Early application is permitted in financial statements for earlier interim and annual periods that have not been issued. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2009-12 to have a material effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
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 be en 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.
Reclassification -The financial statements for years prior to December 31, 2009 have been reclassified to conform to the headings and classifications used in the December 31, 2009 financial statements.
Restatement –In November 2007, the Company approved a 1 for 2 reverse stock split. In October 2006, the Company approved a 1 for 2.5 reverse stock split. The financial statements have been restated to reflect these reverse stock splits.

Office Space- The Company has not had a need to rent office space. An officer/shareholder of the Company is allowing the Company to use his office as a mailing address, as needed, at no expense to the Company.
NOTE 7 - GOING CONCERN
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. However, the Company has incurred losses since its inception and has current liabilities in excess of current assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In this regard, management is proposing to raise any necessary additional funds not provided by operations through loans or through additional sales of its common stock. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising this additional capital or in achieving profitable operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

NOTE 8 - INCOME TAXES
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC No. 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC No. 740, requires the Company to provide a net deferred tax asset/liability equal to the expected future tax benefit/expense of temporary reporting differences between book and tax accounting methods and any available operating loss or tax credit carryforwards.
The Company has available at December 31, 2009, unused operating loss carryforwards of approximately $202,000 which may be applied against future taxable income and which expire in various years through 2029. The amount of and ultimate realization of the benefits from the operating loss carryforwards for income tax purposes is dependent, in part, upon the tax laws in effect, the future earnings of the Company, and other future events, the effects of which cannot be determined. Because of the uncertainty surrounding the realization of the loss carryforwards, the Company has established a valuation allowance equal to the tax effect of the loss carryforwards and, therefore, no deferred tax asset has been recognized for the loss carryforwards. The net deferred tax assets are approximately $70,700 and $ 60,400 as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, with an offsetting valuation allowance of the same amount, resulting in a change in the valuation allow ance of approximately $10,300 during the year ended December 31, 2009.

Dilutive loss per share was not presented, as the Company had no common stock equivalent shares for all periods presented that would affect the computation of diluted loss per share.
