NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2008
Unaudited
Note 1 | Interim Financial Statements |
The foregoing unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the Form 10-KSB of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2007. In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim financial statements furnished herein include all adjustments, all of which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim period presented.
The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.
Note 2 | Nature and Continuance of Operations |
Synthenol Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida on May 3, 1989 as Sparta Ventures Corp. and remained inactive until June 27, 1998. The name was changed to Thermal Ablation Technologies Corporation on October 8, 1998 and then to Poker.com, Inc. on August 10, 1999. On September 15, 2003, the Company changed its name to LegalPlay Entertainment Inc. The Company’s business to December 31, 2003 was primarily related to the operations of online gaming. In 2004, the Company discontinued the online gaming operations and redirected its business strategy to acquisition of new poker software and market the software to on-line gaming sites worldwide. The Company is a development stage company as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 7, “Development Stage Enterprises.” On October 31, 2006, the shareholders of the Company ratified the the decision to change the Company’s name to Synthenol Inc. effective December 18, 2006.
These interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes that the Company will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Realization values may be substantially different from carrying values as shown and these financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying values and classification of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. At June 30, 2008, the Company had not yet achieved profitable operations, has accumulated losses of $1,039,518 during its development stage and expects to incur further losses in the development of its business, all of which casts substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to generate future profitable operations and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management has no formal plan in place to address this concern but considers that the Company will be able to obtain additional funds by equity financing and/or related party advances; however there is no assurance of additional funding being available.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
In preparing the management’s discussion and analysis, the registrant presumes that you have read or have access to the discussion and analysis for the proceeding fiscal year.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document includes "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Reform Act"). All statements other than statements of historical fact are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of federal and state securities laws, including, but not limited to, any projections of earning, revenue or other financial items; any statements of the plans, strategies and objectives of management for future operations; any statements concerning proposed new services or developments; any statements regarding future economic conditions of performance; and statements of belief; and any statements of assumptions underlying any of the foregoing. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Synthenol Inc. to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following: our ability to raise capital and the terms thereof; ability to gain an adequate player base to generate the expected revenue; competition with established gaming websites; adverse changes in government regulations or polices; and other factors referenced in the Form 10-Q.
The use in this Form 10-Q of such words as "believes", "plans", "anticipates", "expects", "intends", and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, but are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. These forward-looking statements present the Company’s estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this report. Except for the Company’s ongoing obligation to disclose material information as required by the federal securities laws, the Company does not intend, and undertakes no obligation, to update any forward-looking statements.
Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in any of the forward-looking statements are reasonable, actual results could differ materially from those projected or assumed or any of the Company’s forward-looking statements. The Company’s future financial condition and results of operations, as well as any forward-looking statements, are subject to change and inherent risks and uncertainties.
PLAN OF OPERATIONS
The Company has been auditing a software package for an online lottery game and is currently in negotiation to purchase a license. The online lottery game is an instant win game that is similar to many national lotteries. The player creates an account on the website and deposits funds into the account using a credit card. He then chooses 6 numbers and the amount he would like to pay for the ticket. The winnings are calculated as a function of the initial ticket cost. Once the player chooses to play the ticket, his account is debited for the ticket cost and six numbers are randomly generated. When at least 3 numbers are matched, the player wins a prize.
The Company intends to design and launch a website for the purpose of marketing the online lottery game to players in the UK and European marketplace.
We are in immediate need of further working capital and are considering options with respect to financing in the form of debt, equity or a combination thereof.
RESULTS OF CONTINUING OPERATIONS
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operation of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Financial Statements and the related Notes included elsewhere in this report.
Six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to Six months ended June 30, 2007
REVENUES. Net sales for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were $nil.
EXPENSES. Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $97,216 compared to $74,875 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The major increase in expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was the $16,102 finance charges on notes payable, as compared to $nil for the six months ended June 30, 2007.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Our cash position was $818 at June 30, 2008 and was $66,273 at December 31, 2007.
Our working capital deficit at June 30, 2008 was $357,706 as compared to $376,314 at December 31, 2007.
The Company's ability to continue as a going concern and fund operations through the remainder of 2008 is contingent upon its ability to raise funds through equity or debt financing.
The Company has arranged loans from third party lenders in order to fund the on going operations of the business. These loans have been secured by way of Promissory Notes.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
We have adopted various accounting policies that govern the application of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America in the preparation of our financial statements which requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.
Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results. Certain accounting policies involve significant judgments and assumptions by us, which have a material impact on our financial condition and results. Management believes its critical accounting policies reflect its most significant estimates and assumptions used in the presentation of our financial statements. Our critical accounting policies include debt management and accounting for stock-based compensation. We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as "special purpose entities".

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
