PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
Business Development & Business Overview
Genesis Group Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Genesis Realty Group, Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated on November 22, 1999 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is a development stage company and has had limited activity. The Company’s initial activities have been devoted to developing a business plan, structuring and positioning itself to take advantage of available opportunities and raising capital for future operations and administrative functions.
We have not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding. We have not been involved in any material reclassification, merger, consolidation, or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business.
Prior Business Model
We were initially incorporated to develop and operate an online auction web site that was dedicated to bringing together buyers and sellers of real estate. The website was located at www.i-realtyauction.com and served as a centralized auction for buyers and sellers to meet, negotiate sales, and finally consummate transactions directly, thereby bypassing the time and expense of intermediaries. Our goal was to create an integrated real estate site for individuals on both sides of the transaction, and thus would offer additional value added services through links to its strategic partners. We anticipated that we would have achieved this goal by growing through acquisitions of companies and businesses in complimentary industries. In addition to the auction, anticipated products to be offered through strategic partners would have included: loan services, insurance, appraisal, moving and shipping companies, interior design specialists, content links for researching real property, and image hosting services for showing an item on line. We are no longer maintaining this website, we intend to develop a new business plan which will allow us to take advantage of new opportunities that become available.
Our corporate offices are located at 1 University Place, Suite 12-C, New York, NY 10003 and our telephone number is (212) 406-4954.
Employees
We employ two people on a part-time basis. We will need to employ additional people to continue to implement our plan of operation. Our employees are not covered by a collective bargaining agreement, and we believe that our relationship with our employee is satisfactory.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.
Market Information
On August 4, 2008 the Board of Directors and shareholders of the Company authorized and approved a 1-for-20 reverse share split of the common stock of the Corporation. The Company also authorized an increase in the number of shares of stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock and created a new class of stock entitled blank check preferred stock at par value of $.0001 for 50,000,000 authorized shares.
Our common stock has traded on the OTC Bulletin Board system under the symbol “GRYG”. As of August 4, 2008 the Board of Directors and Shareholders authorized and approved the name change to Genesis Group Holdings, Inc. and change the symbol to “GGHO”. Although these actions were approved by the directors and shareholders on August 4, 2008, this symbol change became effective on September 8, 2008.
The following table sets forth the high and low trade information for our common stock for each quarter since we began trading on February 20, 2008. The prices reflect inter-dealer quotations, do not include retail mark-ups, markdowns or commissions and do not necessarily reflect actual transactions.

Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future.
Payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other factors, which our Board of Directors may deem relevant.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
Not applicable.
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following plan of operation provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. Genesis Group Holdings, Inc. is a development stage company. Because the Company has not generated any revenue, it intends to report its plan of operation below.
The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements, which involve risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results may differ significantly from the results, expectations and plans discussed in these forward-looking statements.
The Company’s operations have been devoted primarily to developing a business plan and raising capital for future operations and administrative functions. The Company intends to grow through internal development, strategic alliances, and acquisitions of existing businesses. Because of uncertainties surrounding its development, the Company anticipates incurring development stage losses in the foreseeable future. The ability of the Company to achieve its business objectives is contingent upon its success in raising additional capital until adequate revenues are realized from operations.
On February 20, 2007, the Company entered into an agreement with Michael Farkas and three of his companies in which he is a beneficial owner (Atlas Equity Group, Inc., The Farkas Group, Inc. and The Atlas Group of Companies, LLC) to grant him the right to convert any or all debt into fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. As of December 31, 2008 Michael D. Farkas, Atlas Equity Group, Inc. and the Atlas Group of Companies, LLC are owed $38,370, $124,755, $4,311 and $80,950 respectively. Michael Farkas, Atlas Equity Group, Inc. and The Atlas Group of Companies, LLC will or has loaned money to the company since the conversion of debt letter and will continue to loan money to the Company. These loans or notes are subject to the same agreement and will most likely be converted into the common stock of the company as well. These shares are not to be effected by a recapitalization. Mr. Farkas is not an officer, director, or affiliate of the Company. He does not own and is not allowed to convert his loan into more than 4.9% of the Company’s common stock as outline I his note conversion agreement.
PERIOD FROM NOVEMBER 22, 1999 (DATE OF INCEPTION) THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2008
Our cumulative net losses since the inception are attributable to the fact that we have not derived any revenue from operations to offset out business development expenses.
Losses from operations since inception have amounted to $343,820 primarily consisting of accounting, legal, office general and the expense in retaining our domain name and development of our website.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2008 AND DECEMBER 31, 2007
Development stage losses during the year ended December 31, 2008 were $35,645 as compared to $ 45,143 for the year ended December 31, 2007.
Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2008 were primarily accounting ($19,496), legal fees ($13,310) and transfer agent fees ($1,354) in connection with our annual regulatory filing.
Expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007 were primarily accounting ($27,800), legal ($15,813), and transfer agent fees ($1,057) in connection with our annual regulatory filing.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Despite capital contributions and both related party and third party loan commitments, the Company from time to time experienced, and continues to experience, cash flow shortages that have slowed the Company’s growth.
The Company has primarily financed its activities from sales of capital stock of the Company and from loans from related and third parties. A significant portion of the funds raised from the sale of capital stock has been used to cover working capital needs such as office expenses and various professional fees.
For the year ended December 31, 2008, we incurred a net loss of $35,645. Our accumulated deficit since inception is $343,820. Such accumulated losses have resulted primarily from costs incurred in the purchase of our domain name and various professional fees.
The Company’s cash flow requirements during this period have been met by contributions of capital and debt financing. The Company anticipates that financing will be required until such time that the Company has been able to develop its own business or find an appropriate merger candidate (see financial statement Subsequent Event Footnote 7). Currently, the Company can not determine when either will occur and as such the Company will need to obtain financing to cover its costs for the foreseeable future. No assurance can be given that these sources of financing will continue to be available. If the Company is unable to generate profits, or unable to obtain additional funds for its working capital needs, it may have to cease operations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, financings, or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, also known as “special purpose entities” (SPEs).
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and
Board of Directors
Genesis Group Holdings, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Genesis Group Holdings, Inc. [formerly Genesis Realty Group, Inc.] (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2008 the related statement of operations, change in stockholders’ deficiency and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period November 22, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2008. 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. 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 the audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Genesis Group Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2008, and the result of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 and for the period November 22, 1999 (date of inception) to December 31, 2008 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 in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company is a development stage company. The realization of a major portion of its assets is dependent upon its ability to meet its future financing requirements, and the success of future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from this uncertainty.

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND GOING CONCERN
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Genesis Group Holdings, Inc. (formerly known as Genesis Realty Group, Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated on November 22, 1999 under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company is a development stage company and has had limited activity. The Company’s initial activities have been devoted to developing a business plan, structuring and positioning itself to take advantage of available opportunities and raising capital for future operations and administrative functions.
On August 1, 2008 the Company authorized and approved a 1-for-20 reverse share split of the common stock of the Corporation. The Company also authorized an increase in the number of shares of stock to 500,000,000 shares of common stock and created a new class of stock entitled blank check preferred stock at par value of $.0001 for 50,000,000 authorized shares.
The 1-for-20 reverse stock split has been applied to the financial statements retroactively.
GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the financial statements, development stage losses from November 22, 1999 (inception) to December 31, 2008 aggregated $343,820 and raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s cash flow requirements during this period have been met by contributions of capital and debt financing. Management’s plans include the potential development of its own business or merging with an operating company. The Company anticipates that financing will be required until such time that the Company has been able to develop its own business or find an appropriate merger candidate. Currently, the Company can not determine when either will occur and as such the Company will need to obtain financing to cover its costs for the foreseeable future. No assurance can be given that these sources of financing will continue to be available. If the Company is unable to generate profits, or unable to obtain additional funds for its working capital needs, it may have to cease operations.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring accruals considered necessary in order to prepare the financial statements have been included. Results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reporting period. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
ADVERTISING
The Company’s policy for reporting advertising expenditures is to expense them as they are incurred. Advertising expense has not been material to date.
CARRYING VALUES
The Company reviews the carrying values of its long-lived and identifiable intangible assets for possible impairment. Whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable, the Company will reduce the carrying value of the assets and charge operations in the period the impairment occurs.
INCOME TAXES
The Company utilizes Statement of Financial Standards (“SFAS”) No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end 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 accompanying financial statements have no provisions for deferred tax assets or liabilities.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
NET LOSS PER SHARE
The Company has adopted SFAS No. 128 “Earnings Per Share”. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted loss per share is computed in a manner similar to the basic loss per share, except that the weighted-average number of shares outstanding is increased to include all common shares, including those with the potential to be issued by virtue of warrants, options, convertible debt and other such convertible instruments. Diluted earnings per share contemplates a complete conversion to common shares of all convertible instruments only if they are dilutive in nature with regards to earnings per share. Since the Company has incurred net losses for all periods, and since there are no convertible instruments, basic loss per share and diluted loss per share are the same.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
SFAS No. 107 “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” requires the disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments. The Company’s management, using available market information and other valuation methods, has determined the estimated fair value amounts. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data in developing estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange.
STOCK COMPENSATION
Stock based compensation is recognized using the intrinsic value method prescribed in Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. Accordingly, compensation expense for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the Company’s stock at the date of the grant over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock and is amortized over the vesting period. The Company has adopted the disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, which requires the company to disclose the pro forma effects on earnings and earnings per share as if SFAS No. 123 had been adopted.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB")issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements," which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position ("FSP") FAS 157-2, "Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157," which delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 by one year for non-financial assets and

liabilities, except those recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. The Company adopted all required portions of SFAS No. 157 effective November 1,2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The portions of SFAS No. 157 that were delayed by FSP FAS 157-2 will be adopted by the Company at the beginning of fiscal 2010 and the Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect such adoption will have on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115." SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value, and report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings. The Company adopted SFAS No. 159 effective November 1, 2008 and has not elected to measure any financial assets and financial liabilities at fair value that were not previously required to be measured at fair value. Accordingly, the adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not impact the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles." SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. SFAS No. 162 became effective November 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 162 did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business Combinations." SFAS No. 141(R) is a revision of SFAS No.141 and retains the fundamental requirements in SFAS 141 that the acquisition method of accounting (formerly the "purchase accounting" method) be used for all business combinations and for an acquirer to be identified for each business combination. However, SFAS No. 141(R) changes the approach of applying the acquisition method in a number of significant areas, including that acquisition costs will generally be expensed as incurred; non-controlling interests will be valued at fair value at the acquisition date; in-process research and development will be recorded at fair value as an indefinite-lived intangible asset at the acquisition date; restructuring costs associated with a business combination will generally be expensed subsequent to the acquisition date; and changes in deferred tax asset valuation allowances and income tax uncertainties after the acquisition date generally will affect income tax expense. SFAS No.141(R) is effective on a prospective basis for all business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008, or in fiscal 2010 for the Company.

Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) will have on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB No. 51." This statement requires the recognition of a non-controlling interest (previously referred to as minority interest) as a separate component within equity in the consolidated balance sheet. It also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the non-controlling interest be clearly identified and presented within the consolidated statement of operations. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, or in fiscal 2010 for the Company. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 160 will have on its results of operations, financial position and cash flows.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, "Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 161 expands the disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 133 about an entity's derivative instruments and hedging activities. It requires enhanced disclosures about (i) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments; (ii)how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and (iii) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity's financial position, financial performance and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, or in the second quarter of fiscal 2009 for The Company. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the effect the adoption of SFAS No. 161 will have on its financial statement disclosures.
3. NOTES PAYABLE – RELATED PARTY
Through December 31, 2008 and 2007 the Company executed notes aggregating a total of $140,218 and $92,750 with Atlas Equity. These unsecured notes are short-term borrowings with maturities of less then one year with an interest rate of 10%.
No provisions for income taxes have been made because the Company has sustained cumulative losses since the commencement of operations. As of December 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards (“NOL’s”) of $343,820 and $306,476, which will be available to reduce future taxable income and expense through 2028.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Our accountant is Moore & Associates, Chartered Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. We do not presently intend to change accountants. At no time have there been any disagreements with such accountants regarding any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008. The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of December 31, 2008, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective for the purposes for which it is intended.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Effective May 6, 2003, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted rules that require that before our auditor is engaged by us to render any auditing or permitted non-audit related service, the engagement be:
-approved by our audit committee; or
-entered into pursuant to pre-approval policies and procedures established by the audit committee, provided the policies and procedures are detailed as to the particular service, the audit committee is informed of each service, and such policies and procedures do not include delegation of the audit committee's responsibilities to management.
We do not have an audit committee. Our entire board of directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors.
