PART I
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. was formed as a Texas corporation (the “Company,” “CTTH”, “we,” and “us”) on July 2, 1999. On March 20, 2005, our then sole shareholder, Jerry Swinford, who is currently our sole officer and Director, entered into a Definitive Acquisition Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Grifco International, Inc. [GFCI.PK] (“Grifco”), pursuant to which he sold 100% of our outstanding common stock, 51,000 pre Forward Split (defined below) shares of common stock (20,000,000 shares post Forward Split) to Grifco for an aggregate price of $510,000, payable as $50,000 in cash and $460,000 worth of Grifco common stock (totaling 1,482,871shares of common stock, based on the trading price of Grifco’s common stock on the Pink Sheets trading market on the day of closing of the Purchase Agreement), of which $200,000 in stock (645,161 shares) was paid to settle an $800,000 debt owed by us to a third party, HyCoTec Investments, B.V., a Netherlands limited liability company (“HyCoTec”), and $260,000 in stock (837,710 shares ) was paid directly to Mr. Swinford. The 837,710 shares of Grifco common stock which Mr. Swinford received represented less than 5% of Grifco’s common stock. As such, Mr. Swinford did not have any control over the operations of Grifco prior to or following the parties entry into the March 2005 Purchase Agreement. Further, Mr. Swinford has not ever served as an officer or director of Grifco. Grifco held our common shares in its own name and as such, we were a wholly owned subsidiary of Grifco following the Purchase Agreement.
HyCoTec had been an investor in the Company prior to the date of the exchange and previously converted its equity interest in the Company into debt secured by the Company’s assets. Neither Mr. Swinford nor the Company had any relationship with HyCoTec other than in relation to the debt owed to HyCoTec by the Company.
Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., our Parent, Reverse Merger Transaction
Our parent, Coil Tubing, was formed as a result of a series of transactions in November and December 2005 that resulted in a reverse merger, change in domicile and name change. In November 2005, IPMC Holdings Corp., a Florida corporation (which was a delinquent filer with the Commission), we and Grifco entered into an Agreement For Exchange of Common Stock (the “Exchange Agreement”), whereby IPMC Holdings Corp. (which is a predecessor to our parent corporation, Coil Tubing) agreed to exchange 75,000,000 newly issued shares of its common stock (representing approximately 89% of IPMC Holdings Corp.’s then outstanding stock, based on 14,200,794 shares of IPMC Holdings Corp.’s outstanding common stock prior to the exchange) to Grifco for the 51,000 pre-Forward Split shares of common stock (20,000,000 shares post Forward Split, as defined below), representing 100% of our outstanding shares, which Grifco held subsequent to the Purchase Agreement (described above). As a result of the Exchange Agreement, we became a wholly owned subsidiary of IPMC Holdings Corp. and IPMC Holdings Corp. became a majority owned subsidiary of Grifco (which held 75,000,000 shares of IPMC Holdings Corp. as a result of the Exchange Agreement).
In connection with the reverse merger and to convert the state of incorporation and change the name of our parent, on November 30, 2005, Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. was formed in Nevada. On December 8, 2005, IPMC Holdings Corp. entered into a Plan and Agreement of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger”) with Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc., pursuant to which each outstanding share of IPMC Holdings Corp. was exchanged for one share of Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. As a result of the Merger, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., our parent company (“Coil Tubing”), became the sole surviving corporate entity of the merger between IPMC Holdings Corp. and Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. (taking the name “Coil Tubing Technology, Inc.” in connection with the Merger), and we became a wholly owned subsidiary of Coil Tubing. Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. had no business or operations prior to the Merger with IPMC Holdings Corp. Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. had only 100 outstanding shares at the time of its formation and prior to the Merger with IPMC Holdings Corp., which shares were held by Grifco’s then President, James Dial.
We had no role in the Exchange Agreement, other than in certifying certain disclosures made about the Company in the Exchange Agreement, and being the entity exchanged from Grifco to IPMC Holdings Corp. IPMC Holdings Corp. had approximately 310 shareholders of record prior to the Exchange Agreement.
The Company is not aware of the operations of IPMC Holdings Corp. immediately prior to the acquisition of IPMC Holdings Corp. by Grifco. Furthermore, Mr. Swinford does not and did not have any detailed knowledge of Grifco’s operations or the size and scope of its revenues or profit. Mr. Swinford is however, aware that Grifco had some coil tubing related business prior to the Exchange Agreement, but that such coil tubing products were not its main product line. At the time of the Exchange Agreement, it is believed that the vast majority of Grifco’s coil tubing business was conducted through the Company.
The acquisition by Grifco of IPMC Holdings Corp. was handled entirely by Grifco’s management and presumably, its counsel. Neither the current management of Coil Tubing nor the Company were involved in negotiating, drafting or finalizing the transaction or the terms of the transaction, nor was their input on the transaction sought. Grifco was the ultimate purchaser of IPMC Holdings Corp., controlled the management of, and the officers and Directors of IPMC Holdings Corp. Later, after the management of Coil Tubing was taken over by Jerry Swinford, Coil Tubing’s and the Company’s current sole officer and Director, it became clear that there were numerous issues with the Grifco/IPMC Holdings Corp. merger, including the fact that IPMC Holdings Corp. was a deficient filer with the Commission, that IPMC Holdings Corp. may have had liabilities which were unknown to Grifco at the time of the transaction, and that IPMC Holdings Corp.’s financial statements were likely unauditable. As a result, Coil Tubing and the Company obtained separate counsel to assist them with the issues created by the transaction. Mr. Swinford has no control and has never had any control over Grifco, and has historically only had limited contact with Grifco.
Coil Tubing (which was known as IPMC Holdings Corp. at the time) had 14,200,794 outstanding shares held by approximately 310 shareholders prior to entering into the Exchange Agreement. Of the 14,200,794 outstanding shares, 6,333,334 shares, representing 44.6% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding stock were held by Ramsy Holding Corp., 3,401,361 shares, representing 23.9% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding stock were held by Mercatus and Partners Ltd., and 2,223,334 shares, representing 15.7% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding stock were held by The Myrtle Heim Declaration Trust. No other shareholders accounted for more than 5% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding common stock other than the shareholders described above, and the Company has no knowledge of the beneficial owners of the shares described above.
Coil Tubing is the result of Grifco’s acquisition of IPMC Holdings Corp. and related “reverse merger.” Coil Tubing’s current management, Jerry Swinford, was not involved in negotiating or effecting the transaction. Thus, he was not aware of Coil Tubing’s reporting obligations pursuant to the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, until sometime well after the 2005 merger. As a result, Mr. Swinford did not consider Coil Tubing a reporting company until he was informed of such reporting obligations by Coil Tubing’s legal and accounting advisors, which was subsequent to the date of the Exchange Agreement.
Subsequent to the Exchange Agreement, Grifco continued to provide financial assistance to Coil Tubing in the form of cash contributions to our subsidiary, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CTT Texas”), for the benefit of Coil Tubing, as the Company, through its subsidiary, CTT Texas, represented all of Coil Tubing’s operations. Such cash contributions made between November 2005 and March 2007, totaled approximately $556,000, plus advances in 2007 totaling $75,000. The advances were repaid in full in the second quarter of 2007. No additional contributions have been made by Grifco since March 2007. The contributions provided by Grifco were used by us for working capital and to pay certain expenses including legal and accounting expenses and to rebuild the Company’s machine shop, and to repair and replace certain coil tubing machinery, including the Company’s computer numerical control (“CNC”) equipment, which was damaged while under the control of Grifco.
It is believed that Grifco entered into the Exchange Agreement, because it believed that our operations would bring more value to its shareholders if we were a stand alone company with operations separate from Grifco, and we could trade our shares on a public market. It was originally anticipated that Coil Tubing would obtain audited financial statements and file a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in an effort to trade its common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”), which it was unable to accomplish due to its deficient filings with the Commission and because it was unable to obtain audited financial statements for the period prior to the Merger. Coil Tubing was previously unable to obtain detailed historical financial information relating to prior to the Merger, and has therefore been forced to trade its shares on the Pink Sheets trading market; however, Coil Tubing has recently been able to move forward with an audit (which information is included in the consolidated audited financial statements included herein). As a result of IPMC Holdings Corp.'s deficiencies, our management decided it was in our best interests to distribute our stock to the stockholders of Coil Tubing, which it believed would provide us a better chance of trading our shares on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board and bring greater value to the shareholders of Coil Tubing.
Summary Material Corporate Events
In May 2007, our majority shareholder, Coil Tubing, determined it was in our best interest to redomicile from the State of Texas to the State of Nevada, and on May 24, 2007, we entered into a Plan of Conversion and filed Articles of Conversion with the Secretary of State of Texas and Nevada, shortly thereafter, to affect a conversion to a Nevada corporation (the “Conversion”). Concurrently with the Conversion, we increased our authorized shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value per share, and authorized 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.
On June 19, 2007, our Board of Directors, and majority shareholder, Coil Tubing, approved a 392.1568627 for one forward stock split of our issued and outstanding stock, for all shareholders of record as of June 19, 2007 (the “Forward Split”). As a result, our issued and outstanding shares increased from 51,000 prior to the forward stock split to 20,000,000 shares subsequent to the forward stock split.
The effects of the Conversion and Forward Split have been reflected throughout this Prospectus.
On June 19, 2007, subsequent to the Forward Split, we issued 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. to Jerry Swinford, our sole officer and Director. The Series A Preferred Stock has the right to vote, in aggregate, on all shareholder matters equal to 51% of the total vote. The Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to this 51% voting right no matter how many shares of common stock or other voting stock of the Company are issued or outstanding in the future (the “Super Majority Voting Rights”). The Company designated the shares of Series A Preferred stock with the Super Majority Voting Rights, so that Mr. Swinford would retain control over the Company for as long as he held the Series A Preferred Stock, regardless of the number of shares of common stock of the Company which were outstanding. Mr. Swinford also holds 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing, which shares were issued to Mr. Swinford in May 2007, as described below. Unless otherwise stated or the context would suggest otherwise, all references to the Series A Preferred Stock contained in this Registration Statement refer to the Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, and not Coil Tubing.
Additionally, in July 2007, subsequent to the Forward Split and the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock to Mr. Swinford, we issued Mr. Swinford 1,000,000 shares of common stock upon the execution of his employment agreement (described in greater detail below).
Mr. Swinford was issued an additional 1,050,000 shares of common stock in January 2009, representing 5% of our then outstanding shares of common stock, pursuant to the terms of his Employment Agreement, described below.
Summary Description of Business Activities
Our primary business is manufacturing, by outsourcing to select machine shops, specialized coil tubing tools and products which are then rented to various third parties throughout North America for use in specialized coil tubing applications.
Coiled tubing technology refers to using a long, thin, continuous string of hollow pipe that is mounted on a truck to work-over oil and gas wells. Crews lower this tubing into the well under the careful control of an operator and once in place, this pipe allows the usage of specialized tools, and the pumping of fluids such as nitrogen into the well. The tool string at the bottom of the coil is often called the bottom hole assembly (“BHA”). The BHA can range from something as simple as a jetting nozzle, for jobs involving pumping chemicals or cement through the coil, to a larger string of logging tools, depending on the operations. Coiled tubing is used for a wide range of oil field services, including but not limited to drilling, logging, cleanouts, fracturing, cementing, fishing, completion and production. The tool which generates the majority of our revenue currently is the “Rotating Tool,” which provides rotation to assist in connecting to a fish, to fish debris out of a well bore.
Description of Distribution
Coil Tubing, our parent company, has decided to distribute 20,000,000 shares consisting of our securities, as a stock dividend (the “Distribution”) to Coil Tubing shareholders of record as of February 13, 2009 (the “Record Date”). This Distribution will constitute our initial public offering. The Distribution is expected to be effected as soon as practicable after the date the registration statement, of which this Prospectus is a part, is declared effective. In connection with the Distribution, Coil Tubing will distribute one (1) share of our common stock for each approximately 7.483 shares of Coil Tubing common stock that you own on the Record Date. Certificates representing the shares of Company common stock will be mailed to the Coil Tubing stockholders on that date or as soon thereafter as practical. No fractional shares of Company common stock will be issued. You will not be charged or assessed for the shares and neither we nor Coil Tubing will receive any proceeds from the Distribution of the shares.
If you reside in a state in which the state securities laws do not permit a readily available exemption for the Distribution of the shares, Coil Tubing reserves the right to issue cash in lieu of shares, at a price of $0.01 per share.
Neither the Nasdaq Stock Market nor any national securities exchange lists the Company’s common stock. Prior to this offer, there has been no public market for the Company’s common stock. There can be no assurance that a market for such securities will develop.
We have not applied to register the shares in any state. An exemption from registration will be relied upon in the states where the shares are distributed and may only be traded in such jurisdictions after compliance with applicable securities laws. There can be no assurances that the shares will be eligible for sale or resale in such jurisdictions. We may apply to register the shares in several states for secondary trading; however we are under no requirement to do so. Rather, we retain the option and anticipate that we will pay the dividend in cash rather than in shares to holders of Coil Tubing common stock that reside in states which do not provide for an exemption from state registration for this offering.
We currently have two wholly owned Texas subsidiaries, Precision Machining Resources, Inc. (“PMR”) and Coil Tubing Technology, Inc. (“CTT Texas”). The majority of our tool rental and tool production operations are run through CTT Texas. PMR owns the manufacturing equipment formerly used to produce tools used in the work-over segment of the Company’s rental business, which generally require smaller tools than other coil tubing operations. PMR also stocks coil tubing tool parts which it sells directly to other service companies, making PMR a supply and sales arm for non-proprietary tools and equipment of the Company. Unless this Registration Statement states otherwise, the discussion of our operations and our financial statements, and the use of the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and similar language, included herein include the operations of both of our wholly owned subsidiaries, PMR and CTT Texas.
The following summary is qualified in its entirety by the detailed information appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. The securities offered hereby are speculative and involve a high degree of risk. See "Risk Factors."
PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

RISK FACTORS
The securities offered herein are highly speculative. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other information in this Prospectus. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business and financial results could be negatively affected to a significant extent.
The Company’s business is subject to many risk factors; including the following (references to “our,” “we,” “us” and words of similar meaning in these Risk Factors refer to the Company):
WE MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FINANCING TO IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN AND CONTINUE DEVELOPING AND MARKETING OUR ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE SYSTEMS
We have generated only limited revenues since our incorporation in July 1999. We currently believe that we will be able to continue our business operations for approximately the next three months with our current cash on hand. We anticipate the need for approximately $1,500,000 to $3,000,000 in additional funding to support the planned expansion of our operations over the next approximately 12 months. We may choose to raise additional funds in the future through sales of debt and/or equity securities to support our ongoing operations and for expansion. If we are unable to raise additional financing in the future, we may be forced to abandon or curtail our business plan, which would cause the value of our securities, if any, to decrease in value and/or become worthless.
OUR AUDITORS HAVE EXPRESSED AN OPINION THAT THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT ABOUT OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.
Our auditors have expressed an opinion that there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern primarily because we had a net loss of $474,141 and cash used in operations of $231,784 , for the year ended December 31, 2007. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from our inability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, our securities will become worthless.
WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY OBTAINING FUTURE FUNDING SOURCES, IF NEEDED, AND WE MAY HAVE TO ACCEPT TERMS THAT WOULD ADVERSELY AFFECT SHAREHOLDERS
We will need to raise funds from additional financing. We have no commitments for any financing and any financing commitments may result in dilution to our existing stockholders. We may have difficulty obtaining additional funding, and we may have to accept terms that would adversely affect our stockholders. For example, the terms of any future financings may impose restrictions on our right to declare dividends or on the manner in which we conduct our business. Additionally, we may raise funding by issuing convertible notes, which if converted into shares of our common stock would dilute our then shareholders interests. Lending institutions or private investors may impose restrictions on a future decision by us to make capital expenditures, acquisitions or significant asset sales. If we are unable to raise additional funds, we may be forced to curtail or even abandon our business plan.
WE LACK A SIGNIFICANT OPERATING HISTORY FOCUSING ON OUR CURRENT BUSINESS STRATEGY WHICH YOU CAN USE TO EVALUATE US, MAKING SHARE OWNERSHIP IN OUR COMPANY RISKY
Our Company lacks a long standing operating history focusing on our current business strategy which investors can use to evaluate our Company’s previous earnings. Therefore, ownership in our Company is risky because we have no significant business history and it is hard to predict what the outcome of our business operations will be in the future.
WE HAVE ESTABLISHED PREFERRED STOCK WHICH CAN BE DESIGNATED BY THE COMPANY'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL AND THE BOARD ESTABLISHED SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK, WHICH GIVES THE HOLDERS MAJORITY VOTING POWER OVER THE COMPANY.
The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. The shares of preferred stock of the Company may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which shall have a distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company ("Board of Directors") prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The preferred stock shall have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as adopted by the Board of Directors. On June 19, 2007, the Company's Board of Directors approved the issuance of 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to our Chief Executive Officer and sole Director, Jerry Swinford. The 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock have the right, voting in aggregate, to vote on all shareholder matters equal to fifty-one percent (51%) of the total vote. For example, if there are 22,050,000 shares of the Company's common stock issued and outstanding at the time of a shareholder vote, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, will have the right to vote an aggregate of 22,950,000 shares, out of a total number of 45,000,000 shares voting. Because the Board of Directors is able to designate the powers and preferences of the preferred stock without the vote of a majority of the Company's shareholders, shareholders of the Company will have no control over what designations and preferences the Company's preferred stock will have. The holders of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock will exercise voting control over the Company. As a result of this, the Company's shareholders will have no control over the designations and preferences of the preferred stock and as a result the operations of the Company.
JERRY SWINFORD, OUR CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AND SOLE DIRECTOR CAN VOTE A MAJORITY OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND CAN EXERCISE CONTROL OVER CORPORATE DECISIONS.
Jerry Swinford, our Chief Executive Officer and sole Director holds 2,050,000 shares of our common stock and 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which preferred stock gives him the right to vote in aggregate, 51% of our outstanding shares of common stock on all shareholder votes. Accordingly, Mr. Swinford will exercise control in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including the election of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of Mr. Swinford may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are adverse to other shareholders.
WE RELY ON OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR, JERRY SWINFORD, AND IF HE WERE TO LEAVE OUR COMPANY OUR BUSINESS PLAN COULD BE ADVERSELY EFFECTED
We rely on Jerry Swinford, our Chief Executive Officer and President for the success of our Company. Mr. Swinford has an employment agreement with us, currently effective until December 31, 2009, which employment agreement provides Mr. Swinford an additional option for an additional year (which is described in greater detail below). The Company also holds a $650,000 life insurance policy on Mr. Swinford. Mr. Swinford’s experience and input creates the foundation for our business and he is responsible for the direction and control over the Company’s development activities. Moving forward, should he be lost for any reason, the Company will incur costs associated with recruiting a replacement and any potential delays in operations which this may cause. If we are unable to replace Mr. Swinford with another individual suitably trained in coil tubing technology we may be forced to scale back or curtail our business plan. As a result, if we were to lose the services of Mr. Swinford for any reason, your securities in our Company could become devalued.
MR. SWINFORD WILL RETAIN THE RIGHTS TO AND OWNERSHIP OF ANY INVENTIONS HE MAY DISCOVER, ORIGINATE OR INVENT, EITHER ALONE OR WITH OTHERS PURSUANT TO HIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT.
Pursuant to Mr. Swinford’s Employment Agreement with us, as amended, whereby he serves as our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Swinford will retain the rights and ownership of any discoveries, inventions, improvements, designs and innovations relating to the business of the Company (the “Inventions”), whether or not patentable, copyrightable or reduced to writing that he may discover, invent or originate during the term of the Employment Agreement. While Mr. Swinford has also agreed pursuant to a Waiver of Royalties agreement to waive any royalties that he may be due for such Inventions during the term of his employment, if Mr. Swinford were to leave the Company for any reason, he would retain the ownership of any Inventions he created and we could either be forced to pay Mr. Swinford substantial royalty fees and/or cease using such Inventions. Finally, Mr. Swinford will retain ownership of the Inventions, and we will not receive any benefit if the license agreement is terminated and such Inventions are sold by Mr. Swinford or licensed to any other companies. There is a risk that if Mr. Swinford were to leave the Company, that the royalty payments due on the Inventions (including those patents held by Mr. Swinford which we are already using, described in greater detail below under “Patents, Trademarks and Licenses”) may be too expensive for us to afford, and we may be forced to curtail or abandon our business operations.
WE FACE CORPORATE GOVERNANCE RISKS AND NEGATIVE PERCEPTIONS OF INVESTORS ASSOCIATED WITH THE FACT THAT WE CURRENTLY HAVE ONLY ONE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR.
Jerry Swinford is our sole officer and Director. As such, he has significant control over our business direction. Additionally, as he is our only Director, there are no other members of the Board of Directors available to second and/or approve related party transactions involving Mr. Swinford, including the compensation Mr. Swinford is paid and the employment agreements we enter into with Mr. Swinford. Additionally, there is no segregation of duties between officers because Mr. Swinford is our sole officer, and as such, he is solely responsible for the oversight of our accounting functions. Therefore, investors may perceive that because no other Directors are approving related party transactions involving Mr. Swinford and no other officers are approving our financial statements that such transactions are not fair to the Company and/or that such financial statements may contain errors. The price of our common stock may be adversely affected and/or devalued compared to similarly sized companies with multiple officers and Directors due to the investing public’s perception of limitations facing our company due to the fact that we only have one officer and director.
COIL TUBING SHAREHOLDERS MAY WANT TO SELL THEIR DISTRIBUTED SHARES IMMEDIATELY AFTER THEY ARE RECEIVED IN THE SPIN-OFF DISTRIBUTION AND THIS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET FOR OUR SECURITIES
Coil Tubing will distribute 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to its shareholders in the spin-off Distribution. The Coil Tubing shareholders that will now be our shareholders may not be interested in retaining their investment in us. Since Coil Tubing shareholders will receive registered shares in the Distribution, they will generally be free to resell their shares immediately upon receipt. However, shareholders of Coil Tubing or us who are affiliates of us or Coil Tubing will receive restricted shares of our common stock, which will be subject to the volume limitation provisions of Rule 144. If any number of the Coil Tubing shareholders offers their shares for sale, the market for our securities could be adversely affected.
STATE SECURITIES LAWS MAY LIMIT SECONDARY TRADING, WHICH MAY RESTRICT THE STATES IN WHICH AND CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH YOU CAN SELL SHARES.
Secondary trading in our common stock will not be possible in any state until the common stock is qualified for sale under the applicable securities laws of the state or there is confirmation that an exemption, such as listing in certain recognized securities manuals, is available for secondary trading in the state. If we fail to register or qualify, or to obtain or verify an exemption for the secondary trading of, the common stock in any particular state, the common stock could not be offered or sold to, or purchased by, a resident of that state. In the event that a significant number of states refuse to permit secondary trading in our common stock, the liquidity for the common stock could be significantly impacted.
WE HAVE ARRANGEMENTS IN PLACE WITH VARIOUS MANUFACTURERS TO BUILD AND PRODUCE OUR PRODUCTS, AND IF THE DEMAND FOR THOSE MANUFACTURERS’ SKILLS INCREASES, THE COST OF PRODUCING OUR PRODUCTS MAY INCREASE, CAUSING OUR PROFITS (IF ANY) TO DECREASE.
We currently have a number of arrangements with various manufacturing shops which manufacture our Coil Tubing Technology tools and equipment. In the event that the demand for those manufacturers’ time and unique skills increase, we may be forced to pay more money to have our products manufactured. If this were to happen, we may be forced to charge more for our products, which may cause the demand for our products and consequently our sales to decrease, which would likely cause any securities which you hold to decrease as well. Additionally, if the materials which our products are made from, including steel, increase in cost, it could similarly cause increases in the cost of manufacturing our products, which could force us to increase the prices we charge for our products, which could cause the demand for such products to decline.
OUR FUTURE SUCCESS AND PROFITABILITY MAY BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF WE OR OUR SUPPLIERS FAIL TO DEVELOP AND INTRODUCE NEW AND INNOVATIVE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES THAT APPEAL TO OUR CUSTOMERS.
The oil and gas drilling industry is characterized by continual technological developments that have resulted in, and likely will continue to result in, substantial improvements in the scope and quality of oilfield chemicals, drilling and artificial lift products and services and product function and performance. As a result, our future success depends, in part, upon our and our suppliers’ continued ability to develop and introduce new and innovative products and services in order to address the increasingly sophisticated needs of our customers and anticipate and respond to technological and industry advances in the oil and gas drilling industry in a timely manner. If we or our suppliers fail to successfully develop and introduce new and innovative products and services that appeal to our customers, or if new companies or our competitors offer such products and services, our revenue and profitability may suffer.
OUR ABILITY TO GROW AND COMPETE IN THE FUTURE WILL BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF ADEQUATE CAPITAL IS NOT AVAILABLE.
The ability of our business to grow and compete depends on the availability of adequate capital, which in turn depends in large part on our cash flow from operations and the availability of equity and debt financing. Our cash flow from operations may not be sufficient or we may not be able to obtain equity or debt financing on acceptable terms or at all to implement our growth strategy. As a result, adequate capital may not be available to finance our current growth plans, take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could harm our business.
WE DO NOT CURRENTLY HAVE INSURANCE POLICIES AND COULD THEREFORE SUFFER LIABILITY FOR RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OUR OPERATIONS.
Our operations are subject to hazards inherent in the oil and gas industry, such as, but not limited to, accidents, blowouts, explosions, fires, oil and chemical spills and other hazards. These conditions can cause personal injury or loss of life, damage to property, equipment and the environment, and suspension of oil and gas operations of our customers. Litigation arising from a catastrophic occurrence at a location where our equipment, products or services are being used may result in us being named as a defendant in lawsuits asserting large claims. We do not currently have insurance for our operations because of the high premium costs. As a result, losses and liabilities arising from uninsured events could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OUR BUSINESS IS LIKELY TO BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
We rely on a combination of patents, trademarks, non-disclosure agreements and other security measures to establish and protect our proprietary rights. The measures we have taken or may take in the future may not prevent misappropriation of our proprietary information or prevent others from independently developing similar products or services, designing around our proprietary or patented technology or duplicating our products or services. Furthermore, some of our intellectual property rights are only protected by patent applications filed by Mr. Swinford, and he may choose to not move forward with those patent applications in the future. Finally, Mr. Swinford’s patent applications may not be granted in the future. In the event that Mr. Swinford does not move forward with the patent applications and/or does not obtain registration of those patents, we will have a diminished ability to protect our proprietary technology, which could cause us to spend substantial funds in connection with litigation and/or may force us to curtail or abandon our business activities.
A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OUR REVENUES ARE DUE TO ONLY A SMALL NUMBER OF CUSTOMERS, AND IF WE WERE TO LOSE ANY OF THOSE CUSTOMERS, OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS WOULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, we had three customers, Weatherford International, Owen Oil Tools and Thru Tubing Solutions, a Division of Rollins Corporation who accounted for 61%, 15% and 10% of our net sales, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we had three customers, Thru Tubing Solutions, a division of Rollins Corporation, Weatherford International, and Specialty Tools Inc., which accounted for 30%, 27%, and 13% percent of our net sales, respectively. As a result, the majority of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were due to only a small number of customers, and we anticipate this trend continuing moving forward. Additionally, we do not have any contracts in place with any of our customers and instead operate purchase order to purchase order with such customers. As a result, a termination in relationship or a reduction in orders from these customers could have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and could force us to curtail or abandon our current business operations.
A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OUR REVENUES COME FROM ENTITIES WHICH ARE ALSO OUR COMPETITORS, AND IF WE WERE TO LOSE ANY OF THOSE CUSTOMERS, OR THEY WERE TO CREATE PRODUCTS TO DIRECTLY COMPETE WITH OURS, OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS WOULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
For the year ended December 31, 2007, a significant portion of our revenues, approximately 71%, came from Weatherford International and Thru Tubing Solutions, a Division of Rollins Corporation, which are also competitors of us. While such companies do not currently compete directly for our products, they offer similar products. If either of those entities, or any other entity which is a customer of ours, creates products in the future which directly compete with ours, such entities will likely cease using our services and our revenues could be adversely affected. Similarly, we could lose additional customers to such directly competing competitors, which would further cause a decrease in our results of operations.
OUR REVENUES ARE SUBJECT TO SEASONAL RULES AND REGULATIONS, SUCH AS THE FROST LAWS ENACTED BY SEVERAL STATES AND CANADA, WHICH COULD CAUSE OUR OPERATIONS TO BE SUBJECT TO WIDE SEASONAL VARIATIONS.
Certain states which experience below freezing temperatures during the winter months, and Canada have enacted Frost Laws, which put maximum weight limits on certain public roads during the coldest months of the years, to help prevent damage to the roads caused by frost heaves. As a result, our revenues may be limited in such cold weather states (and Canada) by such Frost Laws and our results of operations for those winter months may be substantially less than our results of operations during the summer months. We currently rent tools in California, Utah, West Texas, South Texas, East Texas, Louisiana, and Canada and for use on the North Sea in Norway. As a result, our results of operations for one quarterly period may not give an accurate projection of our results of operations for the entire fiscal year and/or may vary significantly from one quarter to the other.
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY MANAGE OUR GROWTH, WHICH COULD LEAD TO OUR INABILITY TO IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN.
Our growth is expected to place a significant strain on our managerial, operational and financial resources, especially considering that we currently only have one executive officer and Director. Further, as we enter into additional contracts, we will be required to manage multiple relationships with various consultants, businesses and other third parties. These requirements will be exacerbated in the event of our further growth or in the event that the number of our drilling and/or extraction operations increases. Our systems, procedures and/or controls may not be adequate to support our operations or that our management will be able to achieve the rapid execution necessary to successfully implement our business plan. If we are unable to manage our growth effectively, our business, results of operations and financial condition will be adversely affected, which could lead to us being forced to abandon or curtail our business plan and operations.
OUR SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR IS ALSO THE SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR OF OUR PARENT, COIL TUBING, AND AS SUCH, MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DEVOTE SUFFICIENT TIME TO OUR OPERATIONS.
Jerry Swinford, our sole officer and Director is also the sole officer and Director of Coil Tubing, our Parent. As such and because Mr. Swinford spends approximately 40 hours per week on Company matters and approximately 5 to 10 hours per week on matters relating to Coil Tubing, he may not be able to devote a sufficient amount of time to our operations. This may be exacerbated by the fact that he is currently our only officer and Director. Furthermore, because we operate in the coil tubing industry (as does Coil Tubing, although Coil Tubing currently has no operations separate from the Company) there may be conflicts between suppliers, contracts, agreements, use of patents and/or other business relations between Coil Tubing and us. Additionally, investors should keep in mind that there are no policies in place in regard to the allocation of corporate opportunities between us, Coil Tubing or Mr. Swinford personally.
WE MAY BE LATE IN FILING OUR PERIODIC REPORTS OR MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FILE OUR PERIODIC REPORTS AS WE ONLY HAVE ONE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR, WHO IS ALSO THE SOLE OFFICER AND DIRECTOR OF OUR PARENT COMPANY, COIL TUBING, WHICH IS DELINQUENT IN ITS FILINGS.
Our sole officer and Director, Jerry Swinford, is also the sole officer and Director of Coil Tubing, which is currently deficient in its filing obligations with the SEC, and has been delinquent since approximately May 2003 (when it was still IPMC Holdings Corp. (as described in greater detail below under “Description of Business”)). Although Mr. Swinford, with the assistance of legal and accounting professionals, has previously tried to obtain the required financial information to file Coil Tubing’s delinquent periodic filings with the SEC, he has not been able to obtain that information. As such, Coil Tubing remains deficient in its current and periodic filings with the SEC, and is not likely to, and currently has no plans to ever file such deficient reports. As a result of Coil Tubing’s deficient filings, Coil Tubing’s shareholders do not have any current financial or other information regarding Coil. Further, as Mr. Swinford is also the sole officer and Director of the Company, the Company will have similar current and periodic reporting obligations with the SEC following the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. Thus, there is a risk that the Company may not meet these filing obligations and that investors similarly may not receive current information regarding their investment in the Company. If this were to occur it may be difficult if not impossible for investors to sell their shares in the Company, we could be delisted from any market or exchange on which our common stock then trades, if any, and the value of our common stock could become worthless.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR INDUSTRY
VOLATILITY OR DECLINE IN OIL AND NATURAL GAS PRICES MAY RESULT IN REDUCED DEMAND FOR OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES WHICH MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS, FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION.
The markets for oil and natural gas have historically been extremely volatile. We anticipate that these markets will continue to be volatile in the future. Although oil and gas prices have increased significantly in recent years, there can be no guarantees that these prices will remain at current levels. Such volatility in oil and gas prices, or the perception by our customers of unpredictability in oil and natural gas prices, affects the spending patterns in our industry. The demand for our products and services is, in large part, driven by current and anticipated oil and gas prices and the related general levels of production spending and drilling activity. In particular, volatility or a decline in oil and gas prices may cause a decline in exploration and drilling activities. This, in turn, could result in lower demand for our products and services and may cause lower prices for our products and services. As a result, volatility or a prolonged decline in oil or natural gas prices may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
COMPETITION FROM NEW AND EXISTING COMPETITORS WITHIN OUR INDUSTRY COULD HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
The oil and gas industry is highly competitive and fragmented. Our principal competitors include numerous small coil tubing companies capable of competing effectively in our markets on a local basis as well as a number of large coil tubing companies that possess substantially greater financial and other resources than we do. Furthermore, we face competition from companies working to develop advanced oil and gas technology which would compete with us and other coil tubing companies. Additionally, our larger competitors may be able to devote greater resources to developing, promoting and selling their products and services. We may also face increased competition due to the entry of new competitors including current suppliers that decide to sell or rent their coil tubing products and services directly. As a result of this competition, we may experience lower sales if our prices are undercut or advanced technology is brought to market which accomplishes greater results on average than our technology, which would likely have an adverse effect on our results of operations and force us to curtail or abandon our current business plan.
OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS MAY BE NEGATIVELY AFFECTED BY SUSTAINED DOWNTURNS OR SLUGGISHNESS IN THE ECONOMY, INCLUDING REDUCTIONS IN DEMAND OR LOW LEVELS IN THE MARKET PRICES OF COMMODITIES, ALL OF WHICH ARE BEYOND OUR CONTROL.
Sustained downturns in the economy generally affect the markets in which we operate and negatively influence our operations. Declines in demand for oil and gas as a result of economic downturns may reduce our cash flows, especially if our customers reduce exploration and production activities and, therefore, use of our products.
Lower demand for oil and gas and lower prices for oil and gas result from multiple factors that affect the markets which consume our products and services:
| • | supply of and demand for energy commodities, including any decreases in the production of oil and gas which could negatively affect the demand for oil and gas in general, and as a result the need for our coil tubing technology; |
| | |
| • | general economic conditions, including downturns in the United States, Canada or other economies which affect energy consumption particularly in which sales to industrial or large commercial customers which could negatively affect the demand for oil and gas in general, and as a result the need for our coil tubing technology; and |
| | |
| • | federal, state and foreign energy and environmental regulations and legislation, which could make oil and gas exploration more costly, which could in turn drive down demand for oil and gas, and which could in turn reduce the demand for our technology and cause our revenues to decrease. |
THE LONG-TERM FINANCIAL CONDITION OF OUR BUSINESSES IS DEPENDENT ON THE CONTINUED AVAILABILITY OF OIL AND GAS RESERVES.
Our businesses are dependent upon the continued availability of oil production and reserves. Low prices for oil and gas, regulatory limitations, or the lack of available capital for these projects could adversely affect the development of additional reserves and production, and, therefore, demand for our products and services.
OUR BUSINESS IS SUBJECT TO EXTENSIVE REGULATION THAT AFFECTS OUR OPERATIONS AND COSTS.
Our assets and operations are subject to regulation by federal, state and local authorities, including regulation by FERC and regulation by various authorities under federal, state and local environmental laws. Regulation affects almost every aspect of our businesses, including, among other things, our ability to determine the terms and rates of services provided by some of our businesses; make acquisitions; issue equity or debt securities; and pay dividends. Changes in such regulations may affect our capacity to conduct this business effectively and sustain or increase profitability.
RISKS RELATING TO THE SPIN-OFF
WE MAY BE UNABLE TO ACHIEVE SOME OR ALL OF THE BENEFITS THAT WE EXPECT TO ACHIEVE FROM OUR SEPARATION FROM COIL TUBING.
We may not be able to achieve the full strategic and financial benefits that we expect will result from our separation from Coil Tubing or such benefits may be delayed or may not occur at all. For example, analysts and investors may not regard our corporate structure as clearer and simpler than the current Coil Tubing corporate structure or place a greater value on our Company as a stand-alone company than on our businesses being a part of Coil Tubing. As a result, in the future the aggregate market price of Coil Tubing’s common stock and our common stock as separate companies may be less than the market price per share of Coil Tubing’s common stock had the separation and distribution not occurred.
WE ARE BEING SEPARATED FROM COIL TUBING, OUR PARENT COMPANY, AND, THEREFORE, WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY AS A SEPARATE COMPANY, AND NO HISTORY AS A SEPARATE REPORTING COMPANY UNTIL THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT FILING.
The historical and financial information included in this information statement does not necessarily reflect the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows that we would have achieved as a separate publicly-traded company during the periods presented or those that we will achieve in the future primarily as a result of the following factors:
| • | Since November 2005, our business has in part been operated by Coil Tubing as part of its broader corporate organization, rather than as a separate, publicly-traded company; and |
| • | Other significant changes may occur in our cost structure, management, financing and business operations as a result of our operating as a company separate from Coil Tubing. |
THE DISTRIBUTION OF OUR SHARES MAY RESULT IN TAX LIABILITY.
You may be required to pay income tax on the value of your shares of common stock received in connection with the spin-off Distribution. This Distribution may be taxable to you as a dividend and/or as a capital gain, depending upon the extent of your basis in Coil Tubing stock which you hold. You are advised to consult your own tax advisor as to the specific tax consequences of the Distribution. Shareholders are also encouraged to read “Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Distribution” and “Federal Income Tax Consequences to Shareholders” below, which contain important tax disclosures relating to the Distribution.
THE DISTRIBUTION MAY CAUSE THE TRADING PRICE OF COIL TUBING’S COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE.
Following the Distribution, Coil Tubing expects that its common stock will continue to be quoted and traded on the Pink Sheets under the symbol “CTBG.” A trading market may not continue for the shares of Coil Tubing’s common stock or even develop for our shares. As a result of the Distribution, the trading price of Coil Tubing’s common stock may be substantially lower following the Distribution than the trading price of Coil Tubing’s common stock immediately prior to the Distribution. The closing price of Coil Tubing’s common stock was approximately $0.06 at December 31, 2008, $0.06 at September 30, 2008, $0.048 at June 30, 2008, $0.057 at March 31, 2008, $0.03 at December 31, 2007, $0.034 at September 28, 2007, $0.031 at June 29, 2007, $0.022 at March 30, 2007, and $0.0275 at December 29, 2006.
Further, the combined trading prices of Coil Tubing’s common stock and our common stock after the Distribution may be less than the trading price of Coil Tubing’s common stock immediately prior to the Distribution.
THE LACK OF A BROKER OR DEALER TO CREATE OR MAINTAIN A MARKET IN OUR STOCK COULD ADVERSELY IMPACT THE PRICE AND LIQUIDITY OF OUR SECURITIES.
We have no agreement with any broker or dealer to act as a market maker for our securities and as a result, we may not be successful in obtaining any market makers. Thus, no broker or dealer will have an incentive to make a market for our stock. The lack of a market maker for our securities could adversely influence the market for and price of our securities, as well as your ability to dispose of, or to obtain accurate information about, and/or quotations as to the price of, our securities.
RISKS RELATING TO OUR SECURITIES
WE LACK A MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK, WHICH MAKES OUR SECURITIES VERY SPECULATIVE
We currently lack a market for the Company’s common stock. Because of this, it is hard to determine exactly how much our securities are worth. As a result of the lack of market, it is hard to judge how much the securities you may purchase as a result of this Prospectus are worth and it is possible that they will become worthless.
WE HAVE NOT PAID ANY CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE PAST AND HAVE NO PLANS TO ISSUE CASH DIVIDENDS IN THE FUTURE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE VALUE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO HAVE A LOWER VALUE THAN OTHER SIMILAR COMPANIES WHICH DO PAY CASH DIVIDENDS.
We have not paid any cash dividends on our common stock to date and do not anticipate any cash dividends being paid to holders of our common stock in the foreseeable future. While our dividend policy will be based on the operating results and capital needs of the business, it is anticipated that any earnings will be retained to finance our future expansion. As we have no plans to issue cash dividends in the future, our common stock could be less desirable to other investors and as a result, the value of our common stock may decline, or fail to reach the valuations of other similarly situated companies who have historically paid cash dividends in the past.
IF THERE IS A MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK, OUR STOCK PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE.
If there's a market for our common stock, we anticipate that such market would be subject to wide fluctuations in response to several factors, including, but not limited to:
| (1) | actual or anticipated variations in our results of operations; |
| (2) | our ability or inability to generate new revenues; |
| (3) | increased competition; and |
| (4) | conditions and trends in the oil and gas industry and/or the market for coil tubing technology products and tools in general. |
Further, if our common stock is traded on the over the counter bulletin board, as is our intention, our stock price may be impacted by factors that are unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance. These market fluctuations, as well as general economic, political and market conditions, such as recessions, interest rates or international currency fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
INVESTORS MAY FACE SIGNIFICANT RESTRICTIONS ON THE RESALE OF OUR COMMON STOCK DUE TO FEDERAL REGULATIONS OF PENNY STOCKS.
Once our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, it will be subject to the requirements of Rule 15(g)9, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act as long as the price of our common stock is below $5.00 per share. Under such rule, broker-dealers who recommend low-priced securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors must satisfy special sales practice requirements, including a requirement that they make an individualized written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's consent prior to the transaction. The Securities Enforcement Remedies and Penny Stock Reform Act of 1990, also requires additional disclosure in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock. Generally, the Commission defines a penny stock as any equity security not traded on an exchange or quoted on NASDAQ that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share. The required penny stock disclosures include the delivery, prior to any transaction, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with it. Such requirements could severely limit the market liquidity of the securities and the ability of purchasers to sell their securities in the secondary market.
WE HAVE BEEN FORCED TO BRING SUIT AGAINST OUR FORMER LARGEST SHAREHOLDER, GRIFCO INTERNATIONAL, INC., ITS PRESIDENT AND THE DEPOSITORY TRUST & CLEARING CORPORATION WHICH WILL IMPACT OUR OPERATIONS
As is more fully described below under Legal Proceedings, on July 30, 2008, the Company, Coil Tubing and our and Coil Tubing’s President, Jerry Swinford (“Plaintiffs”) filed a lawsuit against Grifco International, Inc. (“Grifco”), the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC/DTC ) and the President of Grifco, James Dial (“Defendants”). The case is pending as Cause No. 08-07-07397-CV in Montgomery County Texas, District Court, 9th Judicial District. The suit stems from Grifco’s stock distribution of 75,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing’s common stock in August 2007 ("Grifco Distribution").
Grifco left certain shareholders out of the Grifco Distribution and/or did not provide certain of its shareholders with the proper number of shares of Coil Tubing's common stock based on its previous disclosures and the record date of its spin-off. Additionally, there is an undisclosed number of shares outstanding held in certificate form, which were not included in the Grifco Distribution. As a result, there is uncertainty as to the identity of certain of Coil Tubing’s shareholders, as there may be additional shareholders of Grifco, which are due shares of Coil Tubing, and which should therefore participate in our Distribution, but which are not properly reflected in Coil Tubing’s shareholders reports. As part of the litigation, the Plaintiffs have sought damages and have sought declaration of the shareholders as of the record date of the distribution and our rights and obligations to those shareholders.
The Plaintiffs believe that all the Defendants were aware or should have been aware that a shortfall in the Grifco Distribution might occur, but negligently allowed the stock distribution to go forward. The failure to properly effect the Grifco Distribution was the result of the Defendants' action or inactions. As a result, the Company believes that the outcome of the litigation may be that the Company receives damages and other equitable relief. The Company does not believe that it will have any liability and/or be required to take any actions itself to address the issues related to the Grifco Distribution, but instead believes that any issues will need to be addressed directly by the Defendants.
The Company has and expects to continue to expend funds on the litigation which will negatively impact the results of its operations. The Court recently granted Plaintiffs' Temporary Injunction and denied Defendant's Motion to Dismiss. There are, however, no assurances as to the final outcome of the litigation.
THE SPIN-OFF
Twenty million (20,000,000) shares of our common stock will be distributed by Coil Tubing to its shareholders (the “Distribution”) as of February 13, 2009 (the “Record Date”). This equates to one share of our common stock distributed for each approximately 7.483 shares of common stock held by each shareholder of Coil Tubing as of the Record Date. Fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. The spin-off is being undertaken by Coil Tubing to afford us the opportunity to obtain audited financial statements and trade our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, instead of the Pink Sheets, where Coil Tubing currently trades. Coil Tubing has been unable to obtain audited financial statements to date, and by distributing shares of our stock to its shareholders, we are able to become a fully reporting company and move forward with the registration of the shares disclosed herein, and the planned future trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. As a result of the spin-off, we will be a stand alone company. We also plan to take steps to quote our securities on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board subsequent to the Distribution, as we believe that this will improve our access to the capital markets for additional growth capital. However, an active market for our securities may not develop following the Distribution, if ever.
The Distribution is expected to be effected as soon as practicable after the date the registration statement, of which this Prospectus is a part, is declared effective. Certificates representing the shares of Company common stock will be mailed to the Coil Tubing stockholders on that date or as soon thereafter as practicable. No fractional shares of Company common stock will be issued.
We have not applied to register the shares in any state. An exemption from registration will be relied upon in the states where the shares are distributed and may only be traded in such jurisdictions after compliance with applicable securities laws. The shares may not be eligible for sale or resale in such jurisdictions. We may apply to register the shares in several states for secondary trading; however we are under no requirement to do so. Rather, we retain the option and anticipate that we will pay the dividend in cash in lieu of shares, at a price of $0.01 per share to holders of Coil Tubing common stock that reside in states which do not provide for an exemption from state registration for this offering.
We will not receive any proceeds from the spin-off of the shares of common stock.
REASONS FOR THE DISTRIBUTION
The main reasons for the Distribution are to:
| o | Affording us the opportunity to obtain audited financial statements for us and trade our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, instead of the Pink Sheets, where Coil Tubing currently trades. Coil Tubing has been unable to obtain audited financial statements to date, and by distributing shares of our stock to its shareholders we are able to become a fully reporting company and move forward with the registration of the shares disclosed herein, and the planned future trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board; and |
| o | To enable Coil Tubing stockholders to increase or decrease their level of participation in our business by varying their level of investment in us separate from Coil Tubing. |
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
This Prospectus relates to the distribution by Coil Tubing of 90.7% of the shares of our common stock (the “Distribution”). Our common stock will be distributed by Interwest Stock Transfer Company, Inc. the distribution agent, to Coil Tubing stockholders of record as of the Record Date on the basis of one share of our common stock for every approximately 7.483 shares of Coil Tubing common stock. Any fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole share. All such shares of our common stock will be fully paid and nonassessable and the holders thereof will not be entitled to preemptive rights. No consideration will be paid to Coil Tubing or the Company by the Coil Tubing stockholders for the shares of our common stock received in the Distribution. Following the Distribution, Coil Tubing will own no shares of our common stock or our other securities. The Distribution is currently expected to be effected as soon as practicable after the registration statement, of which this Prospectus is a part, is declared effective. Certificates representing the shares of our common stock will be mailed to the Coil Tubing stockholders on that date or as soon thereafter as practicable. We will not receive any proceeds from the resale of common stock by the Coil Tubing stockholders.
If you hold your Coil Tubing shares in a brokerage account, your shares of our common stock will be credited to that account. If you hold your shares in certificated form, a certificate representing shares of your common stock will be mailed to you by the distribution agent. The mailing process is expected to take about thirty (30) days.
No cash distributions will be paid. Although the distribution ratio is one for approximately 7.483, with any fractional shares rounded up to the nearest whole share. No shareholder of Coil Tubing is required to make any payment or exchange any shares in order to receive our common shares in the spinoff. Coil Tubing will bear all of the costs of the Distribution.
TRANSFER AND RESALE OF COMMON STOCK
The shares of our common stock distributed to the Coil Tubing stockholders will be freely transferable, except for shares received by persons who may be deemed to be our "affiliates" or “affiliates” of Coil Tubing, as such term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
Persons who may be deemed to be our affiliates after the Distribution include individuals or entities that control, are controlled by or under common control with the Company, and include our directors and principal executive officers, as well as any stockholder owning 10% or more of the total stock issued and outstanding. Under Rule 144, if we are current in our reporting obligations, resales of common stock for the account of affiliates cannot be made until the common stock has been held for six months from the later of its acquisition from the company or an affiliate of the company, and if we are not current in our reporting obligations, such shares must be held for a total of at least on year. Thereafter, shares of common stock may be resold without registration subject to Rule 144's resale limitations, including the following:
. volume limitation,
. aggregation,
. broker transaction, and
. notice filing requirements.
The volume limitations provide that a person (or persons who must aggregate their sales) cannot, within any three-month period, sell more than the greater of one percent of the then outstanding shares, or the average weekly reported trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding each such sale. The one individual listed as a director and as executive management of the Company is an affiliate of the Company. Additionally, the Company may consider adding additional executives and/or directors in the future.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DISTRIBUTION
The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the distribution of our shares. However, it is not intended to be a complete discussion of all potential tax effects that might be relevant to the Distribution. It also is limited to domestic non-corporate shareholders. It may not be applicable to certain classes of taxpayers, including, without limitation, corporations, nonresident aliens, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, financial institutions, securities dealers, broker-dealers, persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States or who are otherwise subject to special treatment under the United States tax code. Additionally, each stockholder’s individual circumstances may affect the tax consequences of the Distribution to such stockholder. Finally, no information is provided with respect to tax consequences under any applicable foreign, state or local laws. All classes of taxpayer shareholders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Distribution.
The following summary is based on laws, regulations, rulings, practice, and judicial decisions in effect at the date of this Prospectus, and does not take into account possible changes to such laws or such interpretations, if any, any of which may be applied retroactively. Additionally, legislative, regulatory, or interpretive changes or future court decisions may significantly modify the statements made in this description. Any such changes or interpretations may or may not be retroactive and could affect the tax consequences described herein.
YOU ARE URGED TO CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF OUR SHARES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY STATE, LOCAL, OR FOREIGN TAX LAWS, AND OF CHANGE IN THE APPLICABLE LAWS.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO SHAREHOLDERS
Coil Tubing has not requested nor does it intend to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of tax counsel as to the federal income tax consequences of the Distribution. However, based on the facts of the proposed transaction, it is the opinion of the management of Coil Tubing that the transaction will not qualify as a "tax free" spin off under Section 355 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As such, Coil Tubing will likely report the transaction as a taxable distribution to which Section 301 applies.
Assuming Coil Tubing reports the transaction as taxable under Section 301, the amount of the Distribution for purposes of Section 301 of the Code will be equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of the Distribution. Since we have had historical net losses, we are not expected to have earnings or profits as of the date of the Distribution. Furthermore, because there is no current public market for our common stock, the fair market value of these shares and hence the amount of the Distribution will probably be minimal on the date of Distribution; however, each stockholder’s individual circumstances may affect the tax consequences of the Distribution to such stockholder. Stockholders who are not citizens or residents of the United States, are corporations, or who are otherwise subject to special treatment under applicable tax codes, may have other consequences as a result of the Distribution. We strongly urge all stockholders to consult with their own tax, financial, or investment advisor or legal counsel experienced in these matters.
The foregoing sets forth the opinion of the management of Coil Tubing. Coil Tubing will likely report the amount of the Distribution to the Internal Revenue Service based on our net book value on the date of Distribution, which has not been determined to date. The Internal Revenue Service is not bound thereby and no assurance exists that it will concur with the position of management regarding the value of the shares or other matters herein discussed. Specifically, it is possible that the Internal Revenue Service may assert that a substantially higher fair market value existed for the shares on the date of Distribution. If the Internal Revenue Service were to successfully assert that a substantially higher value should be placed on the amount of the Distribution, the taxation of the transaction to Coil Tubing and its stockholders would be based on such higher value. In such event, the tax impact would increase significantly and would not be minimal. Coil Tubing would recognize gain to the extent the value placed on the amount of the Distribution exceeded its adjusted basis in the stock (which approximates our net book value). You would be taxed on the amount so determined for the Distribution as a dividend to the extent of any current year or accumulated earnings and profits of Coil Tubing and would recognize gain on the balance of the Distribution to the extent it exceeded their adjusted basis in our shares owned by them.
YOU ARE URGED TO CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OF THE DISTRIBUTION OF OUR SHARES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY STATE, LOCAL OR FOREIGN TAX LAWS, AND OF CHANGE IN THE APPLICABLE LAWS.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS CONCERNING THE STOCK DISTRIBUTION
Will Every Stockholder Share in Proportion to Their Holdings in Coil Tubing?
Yes, each shareholder of Coil Tubing will receive one share of our common stock for every approximately 7.483 shares of common stock of Coil Tubing they hold as of February 13, 2009 (the “Record Date”), in connection with the Distribution. Any fractional shares will be rounded up the nearest whole share.
However, certain states may not allow us to distribute the shares to certain shareholders of Coil Tubing, including, but not limited to the shareholders who have deposited their shares in the depository trust, without first registering and/or qualifying the shares in that particular state. Therefore, we reserve the right to pay you $0.01 as the dividend for each share you would have received, in lieu of issuing you our shares in this Distribution.
What is the Connection Between Coil Tubing and the Company?
Prior to the Distribution, we were a majority owned subsidiary of Coil Tubing.
Why Are We Engaging in This Distribution?
The dividend represents the Company’s initial public offering of its securities, although it is different than a traditional offering in that securities are distributed only to eligible Coil Tubing stockholders. We believe that the dividend has several advantages over a traditional initial public offering. This type of offering gives us an opportunity to offer our common stock to investors who we believe, as Coil Tubing stockholders, already have some interest in the Company. This form of offering also is more cost effective than the traditional method since there will not be any underwriting discounts and/or commissions paid.
In addition, Coil Tubing's management supports the dividend because they believe it will benefit Coil Tubing stockholders by:
| o | Affording us the opportunity to obtain audited financial statements for us and trade our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board, instead of the Pink Sheets, where Coil Tubing currently trades. Coil Tubing has been unable to obtain audited financial statements to date, and by spinning-off our assets and operations we are able to become a fully reporting company and move forward with the registration of the shares disclosed herein, and the planned future trading of our common stock on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board; and |
| o | Enabling Coil Tubing stockholders to increase or decrease their level of participation in our business by varying their level of investment in us separate from Coil Tubing. |
What is the Company’s connection with Grifco?
The Company was, from March 2005 until November 2005, a wholly owned subsidiary of Grifco. Additionally, from March 2005, until March 2007, Grifco provided cash contributions to our subsidiary, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CTT Texas”), for the benefit of Coil Tubing, as the Company, through its subsidiary, CTT Texas, represented all of Coil Tubing’s operations. Such cash contributions totaled approximately $556,000, plus advances in early 2007 totaling $75,000. The advances were repaid in full in the second quarter of 2007. The contributions provided by Grifco were used by us for working capital and to pay certain expenses including legal and accounting fees associated with the spin-off of Coil Tubing from Grifco, and to rebuild the Company’s machine shop, and to repair and replace certain coil tubing machinery, including the Company’s computer numerical control (“CNC”) equipment, which was damaged while under the control of Grifco. Until approximately August 2007, Coil Tubing was a majority owned subsidiary of Grifco, and as a result, we were an indirect majority owned subsidiary of Grifco. In August 2007, Grifco distributed approximately 75,000,000 shares of the common stock of Coil Tubing which it held to its shareholders of record on May 1, 2006, and as a result, Coil Tubing ceased being a majority owned subsidiary of Grifco at that time. The Company believes that there are certain risks associated with Grifco’s spin-off, which are described in greater detail below under “Legal Proceedings” and under the risk factor above, entitled “We Have Been Forced To Bring Suit Against Our Former Largest Shareholder, Grifco International, Inc., Its President And The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation Which Will Impact Our Operations.”
The Company does not currently have any relationship or affiliation with Grifco, other than that Grifco currently holds 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing, which convert into 20,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing’s common stock (at the rate of 20 shares of common stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock converted) assuming the prior purchase by Grifco of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing from Jerry Swinford, the sole officer and Director of Coil Tubing and the Company. Grifco has the option to purchase the 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by Mr. Swinford in Coil Tubing during the Option Period (the “Option”). The “Option Period” that allows Grifco the right to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing, for aggregate consideration of $100, lasts two (2) years from the date Mr. Swinford no longer desires to hold the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing, which date has not occurred to date. Mr. Swinford does not anticipating selling his Series A Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing to Grifco until and unless the Distribution has successfully occurred.
Can I Sell My Shares?
Upon the effectiveness of our registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), the shares of common stock issuable to shareholders of Coil Tubing will be freely tradeable, assuming any market for these securities ever develops and the compliance with state securities laws, of which there can be no assurance. Any affiliates of us and/or affiliates of Coil Tubing will hold restricted securities subject to the resale limitations of Rule 144, as described in greater detail herein.
Where Will the Company’s Common Stock Trade?
There is currently no public market for our common stock. We expect that our securities will trade on the over-the-counter market on the OTC Electronic Bulletin Board. A market for our common stock may not develop or if it does develop, such market may not be sustained.
What Are Shares Of the Company Worth?
The value of our shares will be determined by their trading price after the Distribution is affected. We do not know what the trading price will be and we can provide no assurances as to the value of such shares, if any.
What Are The Tax Consequences To Me Of The Distribution?
While we do not believe that the Distribution will qualify as a tax-free distribution under U.S. tax laws, we can provide no guidance to shareholders who will receive shares in the Distribution regarding the potential tax consequences of such Distribution. However, a portion of the Distribution may be taxable to you as a dividend and the remainder may be a tax-free reduction in your basis in your Coil Tubing shares.
USE OF PROCEEDS
We are not selling any shares of common stock pursuant to this Prospectus and therefore we will not receive any proceeds from this offering.
DIVIDEND POLICY
To date, we have not declared or paid any dividends on our outstanding shares. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock. Although we intend to retain our earnings to finance our operations and future growth, our Board of Directors will have 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.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Governmental Agency Investigations
In December 2007, Coil Tubing was contacted by the Harris County, Texas, District Attorney's office in connection with an investigation it was conducting, regarding allegations of criminal activity of other parties, none of which are currently employees, officers or directors of Coil Tubing or its subsidiaries. We are also aware that the Securities and Exchange Commission’s enforcement division, the Federal Bureau of Investigations and the Houston United States Attorney office are also conducting investigations.
Neither the Company nor its sole officer and Director, Jerry Swinford (who is also the sole officer and Director of Coil Tubing), have any reason to believe that they or Coil Tubing are a subject of any investigation. The Company and Jerry Swinford have cooperated fully with the requests of the various governmental agencies conducting investigations. The Company does not believe that its operations will be materially affected by the investigations.
In December 2007 the investigations temporarily interrupted its business, but the Company’s operations were quickly restored with minimal impact or disruption to its customers. The Company’s entire product line remains available to its customers.
DTCC/DTC, Grifco & Dial Litigation
On or around July 30, 2008, the Company, Coil Tubing and the Company's President, Jerry Swinford ("Plaintiffs"), filed a lawsuit against Grifco, Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC/DTC") and the president of Grifco, James Dial (the "Defendants"). The case is pending as Cause No. 08-07-07397-CV in the Montgomery County, Texas, District Court, 9th Judicial District. The suit stems from Grifco's distribution of its 75,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing in August 2007 ("Grifco Distribution"). Additionally, without informing Coil Tubing or providing any consideration to Coil Tubing, the DTCC/DTC made “book entries” for its participating members thereby unilaterally creating additional shares of Coil Tubing stock.
In August 2007, Grifco attempted to distribute 75,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing common stock which it held to its shareholders based on a record date of May 1, 2006. Certain Grifco shareholders who held Grifco shares on the record date were not issued shares of Coil Tubing in connection with the Grifco Distribution. Generally only Grifco shareholders who held their shares in street name on the record date were distributed shares in the Grifco Distribution. Thus, shareholders who held their shares in certificate form did not receive shares in the Grifco Distribution. Mr. Swinford was one such record shareholder of Grifco, who did not receive shares in the Grifco Distribution.
It is believed Grifco did not hold a sufficient number of shares to distribute to its shareholders who held their shares in street name at the distribution ratio announced by Grifco. Grifco announced that each of its shareholders would receive 1.89 shares of CTBG stock for each share of Grifco stock held as of the record date. In late April 2008, the DTCC/DTC informed Coil Tubing (for the first time) that Grifco did not transfer to DTCC/DTC's agent, Cede & Co., a sufficient number of shares to affect the distribution at the ratio announced. The 1.89 ratio announced by Grifco implied that Grifco had approximately 40,000,000 shares outstanding as of the record date. DTCC/DTC contends, however, that Grifco had approximately 68,000,000 shares outstanding in street name as of the record date, May 1, 2006.
Between the time Grifco distributed its shares (August 2007) until the DTCC/DTC contacted Coil Tubing (late April 2008), the DTCC/DTC contends it made various demands on Grifco for additional shares. Grifco provided the DTCC/DTC with waivers from certain shareholders, but such waivers were not sufficient to address the deficiency in its entirety.
Coil Tubing was contacted by the DTCC/DTC regarding the shortfall in shares in April 2008. Coil Tubing immediately took steps to have Grifco contact shareholders who did not receive shares in the distribution and obtain signed waivers of their right to receive shares in the stock dividend. To date, a limited number of such waivers have been obtained. Because of Grifco's failure to obtain waivers from a sufficient number of shareholders, DTCC/DTC demanded that Coil Tubing acquire additional free trading shares in the market or issue additional free trading shares to satisfy the shortfall. Coil Tubing did not purchase the additional shares demanded by DTCC/DTC and Coil Tubing does not have a registration statement on file allowing it to issue additional free trading shares. Additionally, issuing additional shares of Coil Tubing would substantially dilute the interests of Coil Tubing’s existing shareholders and would have affected Coil Tubing's planned distribution of the Company's shares to its shareholders.
On July 10, 2008, DTCC/DTC issued a Stock Dividend E-Mail Alert to its participating members. The Alert stated that DTCC/DTC had not received sufficient shares from Grifco in order to affect the stock dividend at the ratio Grifco announced. DTCC/DTC further stated that unless it received the necessary shares by July 31, 2008, it would unilaterally adjust the ratio of shares received in the stock dividend from the rate originally declared, 1.89 shares of Coil Tubing common stock for each share of Grifco common stock which shareholders of Grifco held, to a reduced rate of approximately 1.29 shares of Coil Tubing for each share of Grifco held.
On July 30, 2008, Coil Tubing filed suit against Defendants. In the suit Coil Tubing sought and obtained a temporary restraining order to restrain the DTCC/DTC from adjusting shareholder accounts and against any Defendant destroying any documentation in connection with the lawsuit. While Coil Tubing was in the process of obtaining the temporary restraining order from the Court, and a day in advance of its announced adjustment date, DTCC/DTC adjusted the ratio of the dividend with most of its participating members. Despite the restraining order, DTCC/DTC's participating members adjusted customers’ accounts on July 31, 2008 and thereafter.
The Plaintiffs believe that all of the Defendants were aware or should have been aware that a shortfall in the Grifco Distribution would occur, but negligently allowed the stock distribution to go forward. Additionally, the Plaintiffs believe that the Defendants engaged in additional acts and omissions which may give rise to other damages. Coil Tubing has and expects to continue to expend funds on the litigation which may negatively impact operations. The Court granted Plaintiffs’ Temporary Injunction and denied DTCC/DTC's Motion to Dismiss. However, it is premature to speculate regarding the final outcome of the litigation.
Litigation Generally
From time to time, we may become party to litigation or other legal proceedings that we consider to be a part of the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in legal proceedings that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. We may become involved in material legal proceedings in the future.

Employment Agreement:
Effective July 1, 2007, Jerry Swinford entered into an Executive Compensation and Retention Agreement with us to serve as our Chief Executive Officer and President, which was later amended and replaced by an Amended Executive Compensation and Retention Agreement entered into in September 2007 (the “Employment Agreement”). The original term of the Employment Agreement was until December 31, 2008 (the “Initial Term”), and it was automatically renewed for an additional year on December 31, 2008. Furthermore, the Employment Agreement can be automatically renewed on December 31, 2009 (each an “Extension Year”), unless Mr. Swinford provides us notice of his intent to terminate the agreement by December 1, 2009.
The Employment Agreement provides for Mr. Swinford to receive a salary of $120,000 for the first year of the Employment Agreement (pro rated for the remainder of the year), with yearly increases, of a minimum of 10% of the prior year’s salary, for each additional Extension Year he is employed under the Employment Agreement. Additionally, pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Swinford received 1,000,000 shares of our common stock upon the execution of the Employment Agreement, and at the expiration of the Initial Term and each Extension Year he is employed under the Employment Agreement, we agreed to issue him additional shares of common stock equal to 5% of our then shares of outstanding common stock. At the end of the Initial Term, Mr. Swinford was issued an additional 1,050,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the terms of his Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement also requires us to provide health insurance to Mr. Swinford and his wife, whether or not he remains employed by us, until at least December 10, 2010.
Mr. Swinford’s Employment Agreement can be terminated by us for “Cause,” defined as if Mr. Swinford:

| f) | materially and willfully breaches his fiduciary duties to us (each a termination “For Cause”). |
The Employment Agreement can also be terminated without cause by Mr. Swinford or us at any time for any reason, provided the terminating party gives thirty (30) days written notice to the non-terminating party (a termination “Without Cause”). Finally, the Employment Agreement will be construed as constructively terminated if Mr. Swinford terminates the employment agreement within six (6) months following:
| a) | his demotion by us to a lesser position in title or responsibility; |
| b) | the decrease of Mr. Swinford’s compensation below the highest level of executive compensation we have in effect at any time; |

Following the termination of the Employment Agreement, as provided in the Employment Agreement, due to Mr. Swinford’s disability or death, we are required to pay him any amount of compensation earned but not paid, provide him and his wife health insurance through December 31, 2010, and to issue him any and all shares which he would have been due assuming the Employment Agreement continued in effect until December 31, 2010.
The Employment Agreement also contained a Licensing Agreement, which was later amended and replaced in September 2007 by an Amended Licensing Agreement (the “Licensing Agreement”) and a Waiver of Royalties Agreement. Pursuant to the Licensing Agreement, we agreed to license the patents currently held by Mr. Swinford, and the provisional and non-provisional patents which Mr. Swinford has applied for (as described in greater detail under “Patents, Trademarks and Licenses,” herein), and the use of certain proprietary tools, devices and methods created by Mr. Swinford (the “Property”), and Mr. Swinford agreed to grant us the exclusive use to such Property until the termination of the Licensing Agreement. We agreed to pay Mr. Swinford, the following fees, which he has agreed to waive while employed by us pursuant to the Waiver of Royalties Agreement in connection with the use of the Property - a royalty payment of 10% of any gross receipts we receive from the use of the Licenses, which in no event shall be less than $100,000 per year, for any Property licensed from Mr. Swinford and in no event less than $200,000 for any Property for which a patent has been issued to Mr. Swinford, with each year calculated as twelve (12) months from the effective date of the License Agreement (collectively the “License Payments”). Finally, the Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Swinford retains all rights to any inventions he may discover, originate or invent (the risks of which are described in greater detail above under “Mr. Swinford Will Retain the Rights to and Ownership of Any Inventions He May Discover, Originate or Invent, Either Alone or with Others Pursuant To His Employment Agreement”).
The License Agreement can be terminated by Mr. Swinford in the event of our entry into Bankruptcy or similar proceedings, upon twenty (20) days notice to us; upon ninety (90) days written notice to us in the event that Mr. Swinford reasonably determines that the Property we cause to be manufactured under the Licensing Agreement is of low or substandard quality; upon the breach of any covenant or warranty of the License Agreement, if upon written notice by Mr. Swinford, such breach is not cured within thirty (30) days; if in Mr. Swinford’s sole determination, we are not doing our best to satisfy demands for devices incorporating the Property, upon ninety (90) days written notice to us; or if we do not meet the minimum royalty requirements of the License Agreement, Mr. Swinford may terminate the License Agreement with sixty (60) days written notice to us and/or make such agreement non-exclusive. Pursuant to the License Agreement, we agreed to pay all costs, fees and attorney fees, relating to and associated with the prosecution, issuance and maintenance of the Property.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
ORGANIZATIONAL HISTORY
Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. was formed as a Texas corporation (the “Company,” “we,” and “us”) on July 2, 1999. On March 20, 2005, our then sole shareholder, Jerry Swinford, who is currently our sole officer and Director, entered into a Definitive Acquisition Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Grifco International, Inc. [GFCI.PK] (“Grifco”), pursuant to which he sold 100% of our outstanding common stock, 51,000 pre Forward Split (defined below) shares of common stock (20,000,000 shares post Forward Split) to Grifco for an aggregate price of $510,000, payable as $50,000 in cash and $460,000 worth of Grifco common stock (totaling 1,482,871shares of common stock, based on the trading price of Grifco’s common stock on the Pink Sheets trading market on the day of closing of the Purchase Agreement), of which $200,000 in stock (645,161 shares) was paid to settle an $800,000 debt owed by us to a third party, HyCoTec Investments, B.V., a Netherlands limited liability company (“HyCoTec”), and $260,000 in stock (837,710 shares) was paid directly to Mr. Swinford. The 837,710 shares of Grifco common stock with Mr. Swinford received represented less than 5% of Grifco’s common stock, and as such, Mr. Swinford did not have any control over the operations of Grifco prior to or following the parties entry into the March 2005 Purchase Agreement. Furthermore, Mr. Swinford has not ever served as an officer or Director of Grifco. Grifco held our common shares in its own name and as such, we were a wholly owned subsidiary of Grifco following the Purchase Agreement.
The debt owed to HyCoTec was evidenced by a loan entered into in October 2003, in the amount of $850,000, which accrued interest at the LIBOR rate plus 2 percent per year, beginning on January 1, 2004 and payable monthly in arrears. The loan was secured by a security interest in substantially all of the property of the Company. The due date of the loan was December 31, 2008, but was repaid prior to that date through the transfer of Grifco common stock in forgiveness of the amounts owed, as described above. Approximately $50,000 of the loan owed to HyCoTec had been repaid as of March 2005, leaving $800,000, which was satisfied in connection with the issuance of Grifco stock in connection with the Purchase Agreement.
HyCoTec had been an investor in the Company prior to the date of the exchange and previously converted its equity interest in the Company into debt secured by the Company’s assets.
Neither Mr. Swinford nor the Company had any relationship with HyCoTec other than in relation to the debt which HyCoTec was owed by the Company. We are not aware of why HyCoTec agreed to accept shares of Grifco in exchange for the debt which we owed it.
Prior to March 2005, the Company’s sole operations were the development and introduction of new tool technology to the oil field coiled tubing market segment. The Company brought this new technology to the market place through the development of proprietary tools and rented or leased “highly specialized” tools to the coiled tubing market place. Prior to March 2005, Grifco sold and marketed various products, including a limited number of coil tubing products, but those were not its exclusive product line. Additionally, the “generic” products that Grifco sold were not protected by any patent or trademark rights and such products were sold by numerous competitors. As a result, it is believed that Grifco products often had to be heavily discounted in order to compete with other manufacturers of similar products in the market place. It is Mr. Swinford’s understanding that Grifco entered into the acquisition of the Company in March 2005, to enable Grifco to expand its business by utilizing the Company’s proprietary tool lines and increase its revenue through tool rentals (leasing) of the Company’s proprietary products. It is believed that Grifco intended that the coupling of the Company’s proprietary products with Grifco’s existing fleet of generic tools would allow Grifco to increase the pricing of its generic products, and to “pull-up” the perception of Grifco’s existing tool lines.
However, immediately following the acquisition of the Company, Grifco found that the Company’s existing customer base would not do business with Grifco as they viewed Grifco as a competitor, due to the well site service which Grifco also participated in. Additionally, instead of Grifco being able to rent its generic tools without a substantial discount when rented along side the Company’s tools, Grifco’s sales and the prices it charged for its products were not helped from the acquisition, and instead the Company’s customers notified the Company that they would not do business with the Company because it was now connected with Grifco, and such customers believed that Grifco would provide substandard products. With the fundamental objective in acquiring the Company failing to come about, Grifco’s management determined it would be in the best interests of its shareholders if the coil tubing portion of the business was a standalone entity, which would once again focus solely on proprietary tools and equipment. In an effort to create such a stand along entity, Grifco acquired approximately 89% of IPMC Holdings Corp. in November 2005, as described below, in exchange for the Company and the Company’s proprietary coil tubing business therein.
Transactions Involving Our Parent, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc.
Our parent company, Coil Tubing, was formed as a result of a series of transactions in November and December 2005, that resulted in a reserve merger, change in domicile and name change.
In November 2005, IPMC Holdings Corp., a Florida corporation, we and Grifco entered into an Agreement For Exchange of Common Stock (the “Exchange Agreement”), whereby IPMC Holdings Corp. (which is the predecessor to our parent corporation, Coil Tubing) agreed to exchange 75,000,000 newly issued shares of its common stock (representing approximately 89% of IPMC Holdings Corp.’s then outstanding stock, based on 14,200,794 shares of IPMC Holdings Corp.’s outstanding common stock prior to the exchange) to Grifco for the 51,000 pre Forward Split shares of common stock (20,000,000 shares post Forward Split), representing 100% of our outstanding shares, which Grifco held subsequent to the Purchase Agreement (described above). As a result of the Exchange Agreement, we became a wholly owned subsidiary of IPMC Holdings Corp. and IPMC Holdings Corp. became a majority owned subsidiary of Grifco (which held 75,000,000 shares of IPMC Holdings Corp. as a result of the Exchange Agreement). We had no role in the Exchange Agreement, other than in certifying certain disclosures made about the Company in the Exchange Agreement, and being the entity exchanged from Grifco to IPMC Holdings Corp. IPMC Holdings Corp. had approximately 310 shareholders of record prior to the Exchange Agreement.
The Company is not aware of the operations of IPMC Holdings Corp. immediately prior to the acquisition of IPMC Holdings Corp. by Grifco. Furthermore, Mr. Swinford does not and did not have any detailed knowledge of Grifco’s operations or the size and scope of its revenues or profit. Mr. Swinford is however, aware that Grifco had some coil tubing related business prior to the Exchange Agreement, but that such coil tubing products were not its main product line. At the time of the Exchange Agreement, it is believed that the vast majority of Grifco’s coil tubing business was conducted through the Company.
The acquisition by Grifco of IPMC Holdings Corp. was handled entirely by Grifco’s management and presumably, its counsel. Neither the current management of Coil Tubing nor the Company were involved in negotiating, drafting or finalizing the transaction or the terms of the transaction, nor was their input on the transaction sought. Grifco was the ultimate purchaser of IPMC Holdings Corp., controlled the management of, and the officers and Directors of IPMC Holdings Corp. Later, after the management of Coil Tubing was taken over by Jerry Swinford, Coil Tubing’s and the Company’s current sole officer and Director, it became clear that there were numerous issues with the Grifco/IPMC Holdings Corp. merger, including the fact that IPMC Holdings Corp. was a deficient filer with the Commission, that IPMC Holdings Corp. may have had liabilities which were unknown to Grifco at the time of the transaction, and that IPMC Holdings Corp.’s financial statements were unauditable. As a result, Coil Tubing and the Company obtained separate counsel to assist them with the issues created by the transaction. Mr. Swinford has no control and has never had any control over Grifco, and has historically only had limited contact with Grifco.
Coil Tubing (which was known as IPMC Holdings Corp. at the time) had 14,200,794 outstanding shares held by approximately 310 shareholders prior to its entering into the Exchange Agreement. Of the 14,200,794 outstanding shares, 6,333,334 shares, representing 44.6% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding stock were held by Ramsy Holding Corp., 3,401,361 shares, representing 23.9% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding stock were held by Mercatus and Partners Ltd., and 2,223,334 shares, representing 15.7% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding stock were held by The Myrtle Heim Declaration Trust. No other shareholders accounted for more than 5% of Coil Tubing’s outstanding common stock other than the shareholders described above, and the Company is not aware of the beneficial owners of the shares described above.
Coil Tubing is the result of Grifco’s acquisition of IPMC Holdings Corp. and related “reverse merger.” Coil Tubing’s current management, Jerry Swinford, was not involved in negotiating or effecting the transaction. Thus, he was not aware of Coil Tubing’s reporting obligations pursuant to the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, until sometime well after the 2005 merger. As a result, Mr. Swinford did not consider Coil Tubing a reporting company until such time as he became aware of its reporting obligations.
Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. was formed in Nevada on November 30, 2005. On December 8, 2005, IPMC Holdings Corp. entered into a Plan and Agreement of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger”) with Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc., pursuant to which each outstanding share of IPMC Holdings Corp. was exchanged for one share of Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. As a result of the Merger, Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc., our parent company (“Coil Tubing”) became the sole surviving corporate entity of the merger between IPMC Holdings Corp. and Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. (taking the name “Coil Tubing Technology, Inc.” in connection with the Merger), and we became a wholly owned subsidiary of Coil Tubing. Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. had no business or operations prior to the Merger with IPMC Holdings Corp. Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc. had only 100 outstanding shares at the time of its formation and prior to the Merger with IPMC Holdings Corp., which shares were held by Grifco’s then President, James Dial.
Subsequent to the Exchange Agreement, Grifco continued to provide financial assistance to Coil Tubing in the form of cash contributions to our subsidiary, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CTT Texas”), for the benefit of Coil Tubing, as the Company, through its subsidiary, CTT Texas, represented all of Coil Tubing’s operations. Such cash contributions totaled approximately $556,000, plus advances in early 2007 totaling $75,000. The advances were repaid in full in the second quarter of 2007. No additional contributions have been made by Grifco since March 2007. The contributions provided by Grifco were used by us for working capital and to pay certain expenses including legal and accounting expenses and to rebuild the Company’s machine shop, and to repair and replace certain coil tubing machinery, including the Company’s computer numerical control (“CNC”) equipment, which was damaged while under the control of Grifco.
It is believed that Grifco entered into the Exchange Agreement, because it believed that our operations would bring more value to its shareholders if we were a stand alone company with operations separate from Grifco, and we could trade our shares on a public market. It was originally anticipated that Coil Tubing, our parent company, would bring its filings current and trade its shares on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board. Coil Tubing has been unable to obtain historical financial information to date, and has therefore been forced to trade its shares on the Pink Sheets trading market. As a result, our management decided it was in our best interests to distribute our stock to the stockholders of Coil Tubing, which it believed would provide us a better chance of trading our shares on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board and bring greater value to the shareholders of Coil Tubing.
Coil Tubing Material Stock Transactions
In November 2005, in connection with and pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, IPMC Holdings Corp. issued 75,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to Grifco.

Summary of 2007 Material Corporate Events and Agreements Regarding the Company
In May, 2007, our majority shareholder, Coil Tubing, determined it was in our best interest to redomicile from the State of Texas to the State of Nevada, and on May 24, 2007, we entered into a Plan of Conversion and filed Articles of Conversion with the Secretary of State of Texas and Nevada, shortly thereafter, to affect a conversion to a Nevada corporation (the “Conversion”). Concurrently with the Conversion, we increased our authorized shares of common stock to 500,000,000 shares, $0.001 par value per share, and authorized 10,000,000 shares of blank check preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share.
In May 2007, we entered into an 1) Agreement and Release and 2) a Novation of Agreement For Exchange of Common Stock (collectively the “Release and Restatement”) with Coil Tubing, Grifco, our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Jerry Swinford and James Dial, the then Chief Executive Officer of Grifco. Pursuant to the Release and Restatement, the parties agreed that Grifco would distribute the 75,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing which it held (which shares were received in connection with the Exchange Agreement, described above) to its shareholders (which shareholders will participate in the Distribution) and Coil Tubing would issue Grifco 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which will have no voting rights and will not participate in the Distribution, but will be convertible into 20,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing common stock, if Grifco exercises its option to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing. Our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Jerry Swinford, who is also the Chief Executive Officer of Coil Tubing, currently holds 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing, which Series A Preferred Stock gives him the right to vote 51% of all of the outstanding voting shares on any shareholder votes. The “Option Period” which allows Grifco the right to purchase the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing for aggregate consideration of $100 lasts two (2) years from the date Mr. Swinford no longer desires to hold the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing. The Company anticipates that Mr. Swinford will no longer desire to hold the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing at such time as we have conducted our distribution. The Release and Restatement agreements also provided that Jerry Swinford cancel 75,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing which he held. Neither the Series A Preferred Stock nor Series B Preferred stock will participate in the Distribution, and because Mr. Swinford is not going to allow the purchase of the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing by Grifco until after the successful completion of the Distribution, such Series B Preferred Stock will not be able to be converted into shares of Coil Tubing common stock and will therefore not be eligible for the Distribution. Grifco does not currently hold any shares of our common stock or any shares of common stock of Coil Tubing and will not hold any shares of our common stock following the Distribution.
The Release and Restatement also provided that Grifco on behalf of itself, its shareholders, directors, officers, attorneys, agents, employees, heirs, predecessors, successors, affiliates, and assigns, and Mr. Dial released, acquitted and forever discharged us, Coil Tubing and Mr. Swinford along with their shareholders, directors, officers, attorneys, agents, employees, heirs, predecessors, successors, affiliates, from any and all claims, demands and causes of action of any nature whatsoever, whether arising under any contract or in tort, or arising under any state or regulation or under common law, which were or which could have been asserted in, or which arise from or in any way relate to the various activities by the parties, or which arise from or relate to any of the events giving rise thereto, and including all damage and other events arising therefrom. However, neither we nor Coil Tubing released Grifco from any claims or causes of action.
The Release and Restatement also included a provision whereby the parties agreed that Mr. Swinford would enter into an Employment Agreement with us, whereby he will serve as our Chief Executive Officer for a period of time to be determined by our Board of Directors (as described below), and that he would be issued shares of our Preferred Stock enabling him to vote 51% of our outstanding common stock, which have been issued as of the date of this Registration Statement and are described in greater detail below. Additionally, pursuant to the Release and Restatement, Grifco agreed to cancel an Assignment of Patent made by Jerry Swinford in April 2005 in connection with the Purchase Agreement.
Pursuant to the Release and Restatement, the parties also agreed to amend certain inconsistent terms of the Exchange Agreement, and that Grifco and Mr. Dial agreed to release and discharge Coil Tubing, us and Mr. Swinford from any and all liability, claims or demands whatsoever in connection with the Exchange Agreement.
The Agreement and Release was entered into to clarify various agreements, discussions and understandings between the parties to the Agreement and Release. Additionally, as described above, Grifco had made certain capital contributions to the Company on behalf of Coil Tubing, and the Company desired to have Grifco release the Company from any and all claims associated with such contributions and/or any other claims that Grifco may have had against the Company. The inconsistent terms which were amended and corrected in connection with the parties’ entry into the Release and Restatement included the fact that the original Exchange Agreement mistakenly referred to the Company as “Coil Tubing Technologies, Inc.” instead of “Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc.”
As stated in the introductory paragraphs of the Restatement and Novation, the intent of the Exchange Agreement was to transfer Grifco’s coil tubing business to Coil Tubing in exchange for 75,000,000 shares of IPMC Holdings Corp., which subsequently became Coil Tubing. However, the Exchange Agreement incorrectly identified Coil Tubing Technologies, Incorporated, a Texas corporation as the entity holding Grifco’s coil tubing business.
The Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Grifco and it in turn had (and still has) two wholly owned subsidiaries, CTT Texas and PMR. Both CTT Texas and PMR are Texas corporations. Grifco did not (and does not) own an entity named “Coil Tubing Technologies, Incorporated,” however, the Agreement erroneously identified it as a subsidiary of Grifco. The Novation of Agreement for Exchange of Common Stock ("Novation") corrected the error by referencing the Company, which was the party intended to be transferred by Grifco, in exchange for the shares of IPMC Holdings Corp. In essence, the Novation corrected errors in the original documentation relating to the IPMC Holdings Corp. and Grifco exchange and made such documents comply with the actual intention of the parties to such agreements.
On June 19, 2007, our Board of Directors, and majority shareholder, Coil Tubing, approved a 392.1568627 for one forward stock split of our issued and outstanding common stock, for all shareholders of record as of June 19, 2007 (the “Forward Split”). As a result, our issued and outstanding shares increased from 51,000 prior to the forward stock split to 20,000,000 shares subsequent to the forward stock split.
The effects of the Conversion and Forward Split have been reflected throughout this Prospectus.
On or about June 19, 2007, our Board of Directors approved the designation of 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock. The Series A Preferred Stock is described in greater detail below under “Description of Capital Stock.”
On June 19, 2007, subsequent to the Forward Split, we issued 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. to Jerry Swinford, our sole officer and Director. The Series A Preferred Stock has the right to vote, in aggregate, on all shareholder matters equal to 51% of the total vote. The Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to this 51% voting right no matter how many shares of common stock or other voting stock of the Company are issued or outstanding in the future (the “Super Majority Voting Rights”). The Company designated the shares of Series A Preferred stock with the Super Majority Voting Rights, so that Mr. Swinford would retain control over the Company for as long as he held the Series A Preferred Stock, regardless of the number of shares of common stock of the Company which were outstanding. Mr. Swinford also holds 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock in Coil Tubing, which shares were issued to Mr. Swinford in May 2007, as described below. Unless otherwise stated or the context would suggest otherwise, all references to the Series A Preferred Stock contained in this Registration Statement refer to the Series A Preferred Stock of the Company, and not Coil Tubing.
The shares of Series A Preferred Stock in the Company, with the Super Majority Voting Rights, and the Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing, were issued to Mr. Swinford so that he could control the distribution of the Company’s common stock to the shareholders of Coil Tubing and approve various agreements and documents which would need to be entered into in connection with the Distribution regardless of the number of outstanding shares of Coil Tubing, and without having to expend additional resources in obtaining shareholder consents. Additionally, Hammelman, from whom the Company and as a result, Coil Tubing derives a substantial amount of its revenues would only move forward with its relationship with Coil Tubing and the Company if it was clear to Hammelman that Mr. Swinford and not Grifco controlled the operations of Coil Tubing and the Company. Finally, because Mr. Swinford controls the intellectual property right which the Company, and as a result, Coil Tubing, uses to generate the majority of its revenues, the Company and Coil Tubing determined it was reasonable for Mr. Swinford to have voting control over such companies and therefore dictate the use and exploitation of such intellectual property.
Corporate Organization
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS:
What is Coil Tubing Technology?
Coiled tubing refers to using a long, thin, continuous string of hollow pipe that is mounted on a truck to workover oil and gas wells. Crews lower this tubing into the well under the careful control of an operator and once in place this pipe allows the usage of specialized tools, and the pumping of fluids such as nitrogen into the well. The tool string at the bottom of the coil is often called the bottom hole assembly (“BHA”). The BHA can range from something as simple as a jetting nozzle, for jobs involving pumping chemicals or cement through the coil, to a larger string of logging tools, depending on the operations. Coiled tubing is used for a wide range of oil field services, including but not limited to drilling, logging, cleanouts, fracturing, cementing, fishing, completion and production.
Due to the natural characteristics of the hydrocarbon reservoir, a production reservoir needs maintenance to keep up production levels. Traditionally, workovers were performed using traditional rigs and jointed pipes. However, improvements in the material used to manufacture coiled tubing as well as quality of the tools used in the bottom hole assembly have boosted demand for coiled tubing compared to traditional jointed drill pipes.
Compared to a coiled tubing unit, a traditional rig using jointed tubes, is complex, immobile and requires a large surface to operate. Moreover, coiled tubing allows for workovers leaving the production tubes in the well as the coiled tubing can be fed through the production tubes instead of having to pull these tubes out replacing them with jointed pipes. The consequential saving in time and related cost has proven to be significant.
Furthermore, drilling with coiled tubing allows the operator to virtually steer the bottom hole assembly in any desired direction to optimize production of the reservoir with relative ease at limited cost, creating for example multi-lateral wells. If need be, the operator can maintain a continuous under-balanced condition throughout the whole drilling operation, whereas a conventional rig and jointed pipe may require re-establishment of under-balanced conditions every 30 feet drilled. Expanding an existing well to increase production levels using coiled tubing re-entry drilling, thereby extending the life of the existing facilities has created an enormous potential for the oil companies to reduce the cost per barrel produced.
Circulation
The most popular use for coiled tubing is circulation. A hydrostatic head (a column of fluid in the well bore) may be inhibiting flow of formation fluids due to its weight (the well is said to have been killed). The safest solution to this problem is to attempt to circulate out the fluid using a gas, frequently nitrogen. By running in coiled tubing to the bottom of the hole and pumping in the gas, the kill fluid can be forced out to production.
Pumping through coiled tubing can also be used for disbursing fluids to a specific location in the well such as for cementing perforations or performing chemical washes of downhole components such as sandscreens. In the former case, coiled tubing is particularly advantageous compared to simply pumping the cement from surface, as allowing it to flow through the entire downhole pipe could potentially damage important components.
Drilling
A relatively modern drilling technique involves using coiled tubing instead of conventional drill pipe. This has the advantage of requiring less effort to get in and out of the well (the coil can simply be run in and pulled out while drill string must be assembled and dismantled joint by joint). Instead of rotating the drill bit by using a rotary table or top drive at the surface, it is turned by a downhole motor, powered by the motion of drilling fluid pumped from surface.
Well logging usually refers to downhole measurements made via instrumentation that is lowered into the well at the end of a wireline cable (the simplest way to lower equipment in and out of the well, usually just a long strand of very thin wire). These tasks are by default the realm of wireline because coiled tubing is rigid; it can be pushed into the well from surface. This is an advantage over wireline, which is gravity dependent and depends on the weight of the toolstring to be lowered into the well. For highly deviated and horizontal wells, gravity may be insufficient.
Fishing
The application of tools, equipment and techniques for the removal of junk, debris or fish (anything left in a wellbore) from a wellbore.
By not having to connect individual pieces of pipe, coiled tubing crews greatly increase the speed of putting pipe into the well and saves time and costs for the well owner, whether dealing with circulation, pumping, drilling, logging and perforating and/or fishing operations.
BUSINESS OPERATIONS
We specialize in the design and production of proprietary tools for the coil tubing industry. We concentrate on four categories of coil tubing applications: tubing fishing, tubing work over, pipeline clean out, and coil tubing drilling, which categories of applications are described in greater detail below. We currently outsource 95% of our tools and components to be manufactured by outside manufacturers and purchase the remaining 5% of our products off the shelf.
Coiled Tubing Drilling
Although coiled tubing drilling has always provided an alternative to traditional vertical drilling, more sophisticated applications like horizontal, underbalanced, and re-entry drilling have elevated the success of coiled tubing in drilling applications in recent years. We cause to be manufactured and rent several products to be used in drilling applications, including the following:
The “Jet Motor” - | The Jet Motor is a tool that produces rotation and horsepower by pumping fluid or gas through the components of the tool. The power generated by the tool is then used to drill subterranean objects in an oilwell or to deepen an existing well. |
| |
The “Pulsator” - | The Pulsator is a tool much like an automobile shock absorber. The tool absorbs spike loads induced by the drilling application, which are often created by a Jet Motor or other similar tool. |
| |
The “Heavy Hitter” - | The HeavyHitter jar enables energy to be stored like a spring placed in tension. When released the energy accelerates and is released to an internal hammer and anvil creating impact force to a strike an object in a well. |
| |
The “Amplidyne” - | The Amplidyne is used to store the energy released by the HeavyHitter through a fluid spring. Upon release of the energy the Amplidyne allows acceleration of energy and magnifies the impact of the Heavyhitter. |
Thru Tubing Well Maintenance
One of the biggest advantages of using coiled tubing technology is the ability to perform live-well workovers instead of killing the well first with fluids and deploying a conventional workover rig to the well. Our tools allow the well tubing to be cleared instead of replaced. We believe that the time and cost savings and ultimate effect on the cost per barrel produced using our technology are considerable.
Our thru tubing well maintenance products include:
The “Jet Hammer” - | The Jet Hammer is a tool that creates rotational horsepower and axial impact energy to remove objects from a wellbore. The tool works under the same principal as a jackhammer cycling to 2000 impacts per minute. The tool is used for the removal of scale, sand cement, barium and paraffin from production tubing and the tool is also effective in shattering glass and ceramic discs placed in the well. The tool can be powered by water, light drilling fluids, air, nitrogen or other acid media. The tool is easy to operate and can withstand temperatures of up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Bits for the Jet Hammer are designed to maximize the penetration rate of the tool by taking advantage of the tool’s unique combination of rotational and percussive impact forces. |
The “Jet Motor” - | The Jet Motor is a very compact (19 inch overall length) down hole motor. The tool has a unique jetting system to maximize torque. It has no rubber thereby allowing the use of acids, nitrogen or fluid at high operating temperatures. The tool is ideal for use in wells up to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. |
| |
The “Rotorjet” - | The Rotorjet is a tool developed in liaison with our associate Hammelmann and is used to clean production tubing of sediments deposited during the production of oil and gas. The Rotorjet also is used to clean perforated areas through exerting high jet velocities into producing formations thus increasing well production. The Rotorjet is described in greater detail below under Pipeline Cleanout. |
Coiled Tubing Fishing
Fishing in the oilfield is generally known as the process of removing debris from a well. The process is used when a well production is affected and the debris must be removed.
The “Rotating Tool” - | The Rotating Tool has been designed and developed specifically for use in our coiled tubing operations. Its purpose is to mechanically provide rotation to assist in connecting to a fish. The Rotating Tool can be also be used with HeavyHitters in combination with an Amplidyne to remove a fish that remains stuck. The Rotating Tool currently generates more revenue for us than any other tool. |
| |
The “Heavy Hitter” - | The HeavyHitter as described in the drilling application above, can also be used in the fishing operations. |
| |
The “Amplidyne” - | The CTT Amplidyne, also discussed above, can also successfully be used for fishing operations. |
Pipeline Cleanout
The Rotorjet is a tool developed in liaison with our associate Hammelmann. The tool is used to clean the inner pipeline walls. The Rotorjet features variable rotational speeds and can hold pressures from 600 to 20,000 pounds per square inch (“PSI”) providing maximized nozzle velocities for cleaning. The Rotorjet can remove paraffin and other sediments from pipelines without use of chemicals. We believe that the maintenance of a pipeline using a Rotorjet extends the pipeline life and maximizes the pipeline efficiency.
We mainly focus on the development, marketing and rental of advanced tools and related innovative technical solutions to be used with coil tubing in the bottom hole assembly (“BHA”) for the exploration and production of hydrocarbons (“E&P”). Although various companies in the E&P services business have realized the importance of coiled tubing, we have focused entirely on the development of dedicated, patented, proprietary downhole tools and the related marketing strategies.
We believe that we have identified a market for an aggressive, innovative and independent, full line, tool company and have pursued that business strategy. We offer a turnkey tool package containing a full line of standard tools and proprietary downhole tools or a single item tool rental.
Since the United States domestic market is currently by far the largest market for coiled tubing, we are currently focusing primarily on the domestic market, as well as to a limited extent, Canada. However, moving forward, we anticipate expanding our marketing efforts into the North Sea and Middle Eastern markets. We believe that the possibility to extend the life of platforms makes it extremely attractive to use coiled tubing offshore.
Coiled Tubing Industry
The coiled tubing industry is made up of three operational segments:
| · | Oil Companies; |
| · | Coiled Tubing Operators; and |
| · | Service Companies. |
Oil companies typically outsource most of their coil tubing work to the E&P service industry in general and the coiled tubing industry in particular. The oil companies’ engineers rely on coiled tubing operators and downhole service companies to provide operational recommendations and applications to accomplish a specific task on their well. They are constantly seeking new tools for their operations, which often allow proprietary tool companies, such as us, an advantage on their wells. The trend to outsource services is expected to continue, as the oil companies are not interested in owning and paying for the upkeep of high cost coil tubing equipment and tools. As a result, service companies are responsible for the operation of the majority of drilling and fishing procedures using coil tubing technology. The service companies use mostly proprietary tools and large service companies, with whom we compete, like Thru Tubing Solutions, Baker-Hughes, Weatherford, and Smith International, which are focusing more and more on drilling. These companies are attempting to create a one-stop-shop concept with turnkey solutions for oil companies, especially abroad, as the US domestic market is regarded as highly competitive in this respect.
The Market for Coiled Tubing
We believe that the United States domestic market and Canada, which we operate in, is by far the largest and the most competitive market for coil tubing technology, due to the older age of wells and the difficulty in keeping them profitable. Moreover, the United States is considered to be the breeding ground for new technology with a consequential large build-up of coiled tubing units and related companies keeping the rates competitive and therefore coiled tubing workovers more viable.
Business Strategy
We have based our business strategy on the leasing and rental of our product lines to three distinct markets:
| · | Oil Companies; |
| · | Coiled Tubing Operators; and |
| · | Well Servicing Companies. |
There are four components to our strategic vision:
| · | Build profitable year over year sales of existing proprietary products; |
| · | Accelerate development of new proprietary products; |
| · | Accelerate growth of new distribution stockpoints worldwide; and |
| · | Accelerate growth through acquisitions. |
We believe increasing our proprietary product lines availability to our customers is critical to our profitability. Therefore, we will focus on initiatives to drive year over year sales growth for our existing products, funding permitting, emphasizing:
| · | Enhanced customer focus through a concerted sales and marketing effort in the future; |
| · | Increased investment in product lines; and |
| · | Accelerated growth of new product lines. |
Hammelmann Distributor Contracts
On or about January 1, 2007, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary (“CTT Texas”) entered into two Statement of Understandings with Hammelmann Corp. (“Hammelmann” and the “Statement of Understandings”). The Statement of Understandings provide for Hammelmann to provide CTT Texas the coil tubing nozzles known as the “RotorJet” and “TurboJet” and the surface cleaner known as the “Coil Tubing Cleaner” to market, field test and to report the performance of to Hammelmann, which any revenues generated on such products to be split 50/50 between CTT Texas and Hammelmann. The Statements of Understandings remain in effect until terminated with sixty (60) days prior written notice to the non-terminating party.
Subsidiaries
We currently have two wholly owned Texas subsidiaries, Precision Machining Resources, Inc. (“PMR”) and Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CTT Texas”). The majority of our tool rental operations are run through CTT Texas. PMR owns certain manufacturing equipment formerly used to produce tools used in the work-over segment of the Company’s rental business, which generally require smaller tools than other coil tubing operations. PMR also stocks coil tubing tool parts which it sells directly to other service companies, making PMR a supply and sales arm for non-proprietary tools and equipment of the Company. Unless this Registration Statement states otherwise, the discussion of our operations and our financial statements, and the use of the terms “we,” “us,” “our” and similar language, included herein include the operations of both of our wholly owned subsidiaries, PMR and CTT Texas.
Employees
We currently have four (4) full-time employees, including our Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Swinford.

Dependence on One or a Few Major Customers
For the year ended December 31, 2007, we had three customers who accounted for 61%, 15% and 10% of our net sales, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2007, those customers were Weatherford International, Own Oil Tools and Thru Tubing Solutions, a Division of Rollins Corporation, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we had three customers which accounted for 30%, 27%, and 13% percent of our net sales, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we had three customers which accounted for 35%, 32%, and 18% of trade accounts receivable, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2006, those customers were Thru Tubing Solutions a division of Cudd Pressure Control (“TTS”), Weatherford International, and Specialty Tools Inc., respectively. As a result, the majority of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, were due to only a small number of repeat customers, and we anticipate this trend continuing moving forward. Additionally, as a result, if we lose any of our major customers and are unable to replace such client with a similarly sized customer, it would likely have a materially adverse effect on our results of operations and could force us to curtail or abandon our current business operations. We do not currently have any material agreements in place with any of our customers, but instead, we bill our customers based on purchase orders (“PO’s”), which contain standard provisions, and allow such customers 30 days from such PO date to pay us for their tool rentals.
Billing Process
We bill our clients based on PO’s received from such clients after the use by such clients of our tools. For instance, assuming a client rents a tool out for five days, we usually receive a PO from such client at the expiration of such five day period, and/or at the expiration of such client’s project in the event that any client is using multiple tools over a prolonged period for a particular job. We receive rental fees based on the use of rented tools by our customers and whether such tools are on particular jobsites. If a tool is on a jobsite but not being used for a downhole application we receive a standby fee for and if any tool is used downhole on any particular day we receive a much larger day rate for such tools.
We also bill our clients for the full cost of any tools which are lost and/or damaged in use and recognize the full cost of the tool as revenue after subtracting the carrying cost of such tool (the value of such tool minus any depreciation).
Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
CTT Texas currently holds trademark number 77114787, relating to three concentric circles, which Coil Tubing uses to advertise its products.
Jerry Swinford, our Chief Executive Officer and Director currently holds a registered patent (5584342) on which he was the inventor, which was assigned back to him by Ponder Industries, Inc. effective February 1, 1999, relating to a Subterranean Rotation Inducing Device and Method.
Mr. Swinford has also filed Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) patent applications and U.S. provisional and non-provisional patent applications as detailed in the table below. A PCT patent application is an international patent “application” which allows the applicant to file a single application to initiate international patent protection and which may ultimately lead to the granting of letters patent by the relevant national or regional patent authorities. A provisional patent application gives a filer one full year to assess an invention’s commercial potential before committing to the higher cost of filing and prosecuting a non-provisional application for a patent.
Pursuant to the terms of Mr. Swinford’s Employment Agreement, as amended, described above, we are granted a royalty free license to use any patents held by or developed by Mr. Swinford for as long as he is employed by us.
Below is a summary of the Company’s Trademark and the Patents owned by Mr. Swinford, which we receive the right to use, free of royalty payments pursuant to and in connection with the Waiver of Royalties Agreement (described in greater detail above under “Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons”) as of the filing of this Registration Statement:

PCT Patent Application Filed – Rotation Tool | PCT/USOB/70194 | Filed July 16, 2008 [registration has not been finalized as of the date of this filing] |
Mr. Swinford’s issued patent and the PCT, provisional and non-provisional patent applications, which are described above (collectively the “Swinford Patents”), along with our Statement of Understandings with Hammelmann, make up the core of our business and we believe provide us with a competitive advantage over other coil tubing companies. The vast majority of our revenues are derived from the Swinford Patents, through the manufacture and rental of our proprietary tools based on the Swinford Patents. There are risks associated with our loss of the use of the Swinford Patents, which are described in greater detail above under “If We Are Unable To Adequately Protect Our Intellectual Property Rights Our Business Is Likely To Be Adversely Affected,” and “Mr. Swinford Will Retain The Rights To And Ownership Of Any Inventions He May Discover, Originate Or Invent, Either Alone Or With Others Pursuant To His Employment Agreement.”
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements.
PLAN OF OPERATION FOR
THE NEXT TWELVE MONTHS
We believe that we will be able to continue our business operations for approximately the next three months without raising any additional capital. We anticipate the need for approximately $1,500,000 to $3,000,000 in additional funding to support the planned expansion of our operations over the next approximately 12 months.
We are currently working on a new generation of coil tubing tools to aid in and facilitate well drilling. We expect the market for new applications of coiled tubing to continue to expand throughout the remainder of fiscal 2009 , especially in drilling and workover applications, which we are actively pursuing and into international markets, potentially with the alliance of a yet to be determined major service company.
Moving forward, we anticipate spending a larger percentage of our working capital on research and development activities, which we believe will be required to provide technological advancement to our coiled tubing technologies.
COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2008, COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2007
We had sales of $776,224 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to sales of $542,899 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, an increase in sales of $233,325 or 43% from the prior period. The increase in sales was mainly due to increased revenue from one of our pre-existing customers during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
We had cost of rental income of $282,410 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to cost of rental income of $265,704 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, an increase in cost of rental income of $16,706 or 6.3% from the prior period, which increase was directly attributable to the increase in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
We had cost of rental income – depreciation of $102,588 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to cost of rental income – depreciation of $82,862 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $19,726 or 23.8% from the prior period, which increase was directly attributable to the increase in revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
We had gross profit of $391,226 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to gross profit of $194,333 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, an increase in gross profit of $196,893 or 101.3% from the prior period.
Cost of rental income (including depreciation) as a percentage of revenue was 49.5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to 64% for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of revenue of 14.5%.
We had total general and administrative expenses of $697,697 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to total general and administrative expenses of $559,058 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, an increase in general and administrative expenses of $138,639 or 24.8% from the prior period. The main reasons for the increase in general and administrative expenses were mainly due to increased accounting and attorney’s fees due to the Company’s ongoing registration statement filings and legal proceedings, which were present during the nine months ended September 30, 2008, but which were not present during the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $3,191 or 32.3%, to $13,058 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $9,867 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
Total operating expenses increased by $141,830 or 24.9%, to $710,755 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to $568,925 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.
We had a loss from continuing operations of $319,529 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to a total loss from continuing operations of $374,592 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease in total loss from continuing operations of $55,063 from the prior period. The decrease in loss from continuing operations was mainly due to the $233,325 or 43% increase in revenues offset by the $19,726 or 23.8% increase in cost of rental income-depreciation, the $16,706 increase in cost of rental income, and the $138,639 or 24.8% increase in total general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to the prior period.
We had a loss from discontinued operations of $40,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, compared to no loss from discontinued operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2008.
We had net loss of $319,529 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, compared to a net loss of $415,192 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, a decrease in net loss of $95,663 from the prior period.
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 COMPARED TO THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2006
We had sales of $900,427 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to sales of $235,822 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase in sales from the prior period of $664,605 or 282%. The increase in sales was mainly due to increased revenue from our pre-existing customers during the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to the year ended December 31, 2006.
We had cost of rental income of $440,128 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to cost of rental income of $147,701 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase in cost of rental income from the prior period of $292,427 or 198%. We had cost of rental income – depreciation for the year ended December 31, 2007, of $108,875 which was an increase in cost of rental income- depreciation from cost of rental income – depreciation of $85,152 for the year ended December 31, 2006, of $23,723. The increase in cost of rental income was directly attributable to our increase in sales for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to the prior year, as well as a larger number of tools sold during the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to tools rented during the year ended December 31, 2006, which in turn increased cost of rental income as we are not able to re-rent tools we sell and the fact that the tools we sold had a higher cost than the tools rented during the prior year.
Cost of sales as a percentage of sales was 61% for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to 99% for the year ended December 31, 2006, a decrease in cost of sales as a percentage of sales of 38% from the prior year, which decrease was mainly attributable to decreased freight costs and repair and maintenance fees compared to sales, due to the fact that we sold a larger portion of our products during the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to the year ended December 31, 2006, as well as a decreased percentage of fees payable to Hammelmann compared to total sales during the year ended December 31, 2007 compared to the year ended December 31, 2006.
We had gross profit of $351,424 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to gross profit of $2,969 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase in gross profit of $348,455 from the prior period. The increase in gross profit was due to the 281% increase in sales offset by the 136% increase in cost of rental income.
We had general and administrative expenses of $773,015 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to general and administrative expenses of $520,183 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase in general and administrative expenses of $252,832 or 48.6% from the prior year.
We had depreciation and amortization expense of $11,950 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to depreciation and amortization expense of $8,217 for the year ended December 31, 2006, an increase of $3,733 or 45% for the prior year. This increase in depreciation and amortization was mainly attributable to a larger depreciable asset base during the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to the prior year.
We had a loss from continuing operations of $433,541 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to a loss from continuing operations of $525,431 for the year ended December 31, 2006, a decrease in loss from continuing operations of $91,890 or 17.5% from the prior period. The decrease in loss from continuing operations was mainly attributable to the accounting for the operations of Coil Tubing, our parent corporation as discontinued operations due to the planned Distribution, which will effectively leave Coil Tubing with no assets, liabilities or operations.
We had a loss from discontinued operations of $40,600 for the year ended December 31, 2007, a decrease in loss from discontinued operations of $153,000 compared to a loss from discontinued operations of $193,600 for the year ended December 31, 2006.
We had a net loss of $474,141 for the year ended December 31, 2007, compared to a net loss of $719,031 for the year ended December 31, 2006, a decrease in net loss of $244,890 or 34.1% from the prior year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2008, we had total assets of $803,028, which included total current assets of $335,557, consisting of $276,878 of cash and $58,679 of accounts receivable, net; $400,475 of rental tools, net; $64,066 of machinery and equipment, net; and $2,930 of other assets.
We had total liabilities of $29,175 as of September 30, 2008, which were all current liabilities, and which solely consisted of $29,175 of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
We had total working capital of $306,382 and an accumulated deficit of $1,939,309 as of September 30, 2008.
We had net cash used in operating activities of $238,789 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, which consisted of $319,529 of net loss, $127,924 of decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses, $62,685 of decrease in amounts due from customer deposits and $2,930 of inventory, offset by $115,646 of depreciation, $156,833 of decrease in accounts receivable and $1,800 of increase in other assets.
We had $154,744 of net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, which was due to $133,536 of purchase of rental tools and $32,869 of purchase of machinery and equipment offset by $11,661 of proceeds from sale of rental tools, machinery and equipment.
We had $500,000 of net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, which was solely due to capital contributions received from Coil Tubing as a result of Mr. Pohlmann’s exercise of his warrants, as described below.
We currently believe that we will be able to continue our business operations for approximately the next three months with our current cash on hand and revenues from our operations. As described above, Coil Tubing previously raised $500,000 through two subscriptions by Bert Pohlmann for 22,727,272 units, at $0.022 per unit, one subscription in April 2007 and one subscription in August 2007, with each unit purchased consisting of shares of common stock and a three year warrant to purchase 22,727,272 shares of common stock at $0.022 per share, which funds were subsequently transferred to us to be used for working capital and to help us pay for the Distribution. In January 2008, Mr. Pohlmann exercised his warrants and purchased an additional 22,727,272 shares of Coil Tubing common stock in consideration for an aggregate of $500,000, which funds were subsequently transferred to us to be used for working capital and to help us pay for the Distribution.
In June 2007, we entered into an Employment Agreement with our Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Swinford, which Employment Agreement was later amended and replaced in September 2007, and which is described in greater detail above under “Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons.” Pursuant to the Employment Agreement we agreed to pay Mr. Swinford an annual salary of $120,000 per year, subject to increases of not less than 10% per year during the three year term of the agreement. We do not believe that the Employment Agreement will have any material effects on our future operating results, as the Employment Agreement and the related agreements entered into in connection with the Employment Agreement only memorialized the material terms of the relationship between Mr. Swinford and the Company which had existed since Mr. Swinford began serving as Chief Executive Officer of the Company in July 1999, and provided Mr. Swinford with a small increase in his salary from the prior year’s period. Specifically, Mr. Swinford had been paid a salary of $9,000 per month prior to his entry into the Employment Agreement, and receives a salary of $10,000 under the Employment Agreement. Furthermore, because we currently plan to expand our operations and our sales moving forward, we do not believe that the 10% yearly increases in Mr. Swinford’s annual salary will have any material effect on our results for any particular period.
We have no current commitment from our officer and Director or any of our shareholders, to supplement our operations or provide us with financing in the future. If we are unable to raise additional capital from conventional sources and/or additional sales of stock in the future, we may be forced to curtail or cease our operations. Even if we are able to continue our operations, the failure to obtain financing could have a substantial adverse effect on our business and financial results. In the future, we may be required to seek additional capital by selling debt or equity securities, selling assets, or otherwise be required to bring cash flows in balance when we approach a condition of cash insufficiency. The sale of additional equity or debt securities, if accomplished, may result in dilution to our then shareholders. We provide no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, or at all.
DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
We, through CTT Texas, currently rent office and manufacturing space at 19511 Wied Rd., Suite D and Suite E, in Spring, Texas. The Company entered into a rental agreement effective January 1, 2005, under which we rented space on a month to month basis, with an initial fixed rental payment of $1,625 per month, for a term of two (2) years. Since entering into the rental agreement, the agreement has been adjusted, and is operating on a month to month basis. We currently pay $2,550 per month in rental fees for our offices and our manufacturing space.
In June 2007, PMR entered into a one year lease for approximately 2,000 square feet of warehouse space in McAllen, Texas. PMR paid rent of approximately $860 per month for the use of the warehouse space. The lease expired on June 30, 2008 and we have discontinued the rental and use of the warehouse space.

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Director Compensation
Jerry Swinford, our sole executive officer and Director, does not receive any separate consideration from the Company other than the compensation he is paid as the Company’s sole executive officer, for his service on the Board of Directors. However; the Board of Directors reserves the right in the future to award the members of the Board of Directors cash or stock based consideration for services to the Company, which awards, if granted shall be in the sole determination of the Board of Directors.
Executive Compensation Philosophy
Our Board of Directors, consisting solely of Jerry Swinford, determines the compensation provided to our sole executive officer, Mr. Swinford, and/or any other executive officers we may hire in the future in our sole determination. Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain talented executives (such as Mr. Swinford), to meet our short-term and long-term business objectives. In doing so, we attempt to align our executive’s interests with the interests of our shareholders by providing an adequate compensation package to such executive. This compensation package includes a base salary, which we believe is competitive with other companies of our relative size. Additionally, our Board of Directors reserves the right to award incentive bonuses which are linked to our performance, as well as to individual executive officer’s performance in the future. This package may also include long-term, stock based compensation to Mr. Swinford and/or any additional executives we may hire in the future, which are intended to align the performance of our executives with our long-term business strategies.
Base Salary
The base salary of Mr. Swinford, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer, was established by our entry into the Employment Agreement with Mr. Swinford, effective July 1, 2007, described in greater detail above, Mr. Swinford’s salary was established by evaluating the range of responsibilities of his positions, as well as the anticipated impact that Mr. Swinford could have in meeting our strategic objectives. Mr. Swinford’s base salary and/or the base salaries of any additional executive officers we may hire in the future may be adjusted (subject to the terms of any Employment Agreements, including Mr. Swinford’s Employment Agreement which provides for him to receive yearly salary increases of 10% of his prior year’s salary) to reflect the varying levels of position responsibilities and individual executive performance.
Incentive Bonus
Along with Mr. Swinford’s base salary, the Board of Directors reserves the right to give incentive bonuses to Mr. Swinford, which bonuses the Board of Directors may grant in its sole discretion, if the Board of Directors believes such bonuses are in the Company’s best interest, after analyzing our current business objectives and growth, if any, and the amount of revenue we are able to generate each month, which revenue is a direct result of the actions and ability of Mr. Swinford in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.
Long-term, Stock Based Compensation
In order to attract, retain and motivate executive talent necessary to support the Company’s long-term business strategy we may award executives with long-term, stock based compensation in the future, in the sole discretion of our Board of Directors, similar to the compensation plan we have with Mr. Swinford pursuant to his Employment Agreement, whereby he is to receive shares of common stock equal to 5% of our then outstanding shares of common stock at the expiration of each year he is employed under his Employment Agreement, as described in greater detail above.
Criteria for Compensation Levels
The Company has always sought to attract and retain qualified executives and employees able to positively contribute to the success of the Company for the benefit of its various stakeholders, the most important of which is its shareholders, but also including its customers, its employees, and the communities in which the Company operates. As of the filing of this Registration Statement, the Company’s sole executive officer is Jerry Swinford, its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer.
The Board of Directors, currently consisting solely of Mr. Swinford (in establishing compensation levels for Mr. Swinford) and the Company (in establishing compensation levels for all employees of the Company) consider many factors, including, but not limited to, the individual’s abilities and executed performance that results in: the advancement of corporate goals of the Company, execution of the Company’s business strategies, contributions to positive financial results, contributions to the Company’s overall image and reputation in the Company’s industry, and contributions to the development of the management team and other employees. An employee must demonstrate his or her ability to deliver results in his or her areas of responsibility, which can include, among other things: business development, efficient management of operations and systems, implementation of appropriate changes and improvements to operations and systems, personnel management, financial management, sales and strategic decision making.
Compensation levels for executives and employees are generally reviewed upon the expiration of such executive’s employment and/or consulting agreements (if any), and/or annually, but may be reviewed more often as deemed appropriate.
Compensation Philosophy and Strategy
In addition to the “Criteria for Compensation Levels” set forth above, the Company has a “Compensation Philosophy” for all employees of the Company (set forth below).
Compensation Philosophy
The Company’s compensation philosophy is as follows:
| · | The Company believes that compensation is an integral component of its overall business and human resource strategies. The Company’s compensation plans will strive to promote the hiring and retention of personnel necessary to execute the Company’s business strategies and achieve its business objectives. |
| · | The Company’s compensation plans will be strategy-focused, competitive, and recognize and reward individual and group contributions and results. The Company’s compensation plans will strive to promote an alignment of the interests of employees with the interests of the shareholders by having a portion of compensation based on financial results and actions that will generate future shareholder value. |
| | |
| · | When determining compensation for officers, managers and consultants, the Company takes into account the employee’s (and/or consultant’s) knowledge, experience, past employment history and connections in the industry, including industry specific knowledge and experience, to the extent such knowledge and experience contributes to the Company’s ability to achieve its business objectives. |
| · | In order to reward financial performance over time, the Company’s compensation programs generally will consist of: base compensation, and may also consist of short-term variable incentives and long-term variable incentives (such as those provided to Mr. Swinford in connection with his Employment Agreement described above under “Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons,”), as appropriate. |
| · | The Company’s compensation plans will be administered consistently and fairly to promote equal opportunities for the Company’s employees. |
| · | The Company reserves the right to adjust annual base salaries of employees and/or to award performance based bonuses if individual performance is at or above pre-established performance expectations. |
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH
ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Effective May 1, 2008, the client-auditor relationship between Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") and Li & Company, PC ("Li & Co.") was terminated as Li & Company, PC was dismissed by the Company. Effective May 1, 2008, the Company engaged LBB & Associates Ltd., LLP ("LBB") as its principal independent public accountant for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and 2008. The decision to change accountants was recommended, approved and ratified by the Company's Board of Directors.
Li & Co.'s report on the financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, and any later interim period, including the interim period up to and including the date the relationship with Li & Co. ceased, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles except for concerns about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
In connection with the audit of the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, and any later interim period, including the interim period up to and including the date the relationship with Li & Co. ceased, there were no disagreements between Li & Co. and the Company on a matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Li & Co. would have caused Li & Co. to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report on the Company's financial statements.
There have been no reportable events as provided in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K during the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, and any later interim period, including the interim period up to and including the date the relationship with Li & Co. ceased.
The Company authorized Li & Co. to respond fully to any inquiries of any new auditors hired by the Company relating to their engagement as the Company's independent accountant. The Company has requested that Li & Co. review the disclosure and Li & Co. has been given an opportunity to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification of the Company's expression of its views, or the respect in which it does not agree with the statements made by the Company herein. Such letter is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to this Registration Statement.
The Company has not previously consulted with LBB regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific completed or contemplated transaction; (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements; or (iii) a reportable event (as provided in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K) during the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, and any later interim period, including the interim period up to and including the date the relationship with Li & Co. ceased. LBB has reviewed the disclosure required by Item 304(a) before it was filed with the Commission and has been provided an opportunity to furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Commission containing any new information, clarification of the Company's expression of its views, or the respects in which it does not agree with the statements made by the Company in response to Item 304(a). LBB did not furnish a letter to the Commission.
DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK
We have authorized capital stock consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share ("Common Stock") and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share ("Preferred Stock"). As of February 13, 2009, we had 22,050,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and 1,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding.
COMMON STOCK
Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders. Directors are appointed by a plurality of the votes present at any special or annual meeting of shareholders (by proxy or in person), and a majority of the votes present at any special or annual meeting of shareholders (by proxy or in person) shall determine all other matters. The holders of outstanding shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends out of assets or funds legally available for the payment of dividends at such times and in such amounts as the board from time to time may determine. There is no cumulative voting of the election of directors then standing for election. The common stock is not entitled to pre-emptive rights and is not subject to conversion or redemption. Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our company, the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders are distributable ratably among the holders of the common stock after payment of liquidation preferences, if any, on any outstanding payment of other claims of creditors. Each outstanding share of common stock is, and all shares of common stock to be outstanding upon completion of this Offering will be, duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable after the Distribution is affected.
PREFERRED STOCK
Shares of Preferred Stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which shall have such distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by our Board of Directors ("Board of Directors") prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. Preferred Stock shall have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in such resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such class or series of Preferred Stock as may be adopted from time to time by the Board of Directors prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The number of authorized shares of Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all the then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of the directors, voting together as a single class, without a separate vote of the holders of the Preferred Stock, or any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to any Preferred Stock Designation.
We currently have 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock outstanding (described below), and the Preferred Stock will adversely affect the rights of the holders of common stock and, may therefore, reduce the value of our common stock. Specifically, as described in greater detail below, the Series A Preferred Stock shares, voting in aggregate can vote a number of shares equal to 51% of our then outstanding shares, meaning that our common stock shares will have little to no effect on the outcome of shareholder votes.
Additionally, while it is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any additional shares of Preferred Stock on the rights of holders of the common stock until the Board of Directors determines the specific rights of the holders of any additional shares of Preferred Stock, such rights may be superior to those associated with our common stock (and/or our Series A Preferred Stock), and may include:
o | Restricting dividends on the common stock; |
o | Rights and preferences including dividend and dissolution rights, which are superior to our common stock; |
o | Diluting the voting power of the common stock; |
o | Impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock; or |
o | Delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders. |
Series A Preferred Stock
We designated 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share on June 19, 2007 (the "Series A Preferred Stock"). The Series A Preferred Stock has no dividend rights, no liquidation preference, no redemption rights and no conversion rights. On or about June 19, 2007, we granted all 1,000,000 shares of such Series A Preferred Stock to our sole officer and Director, Jerry Swinford. The 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock have the right, voting in aggregate, to vote on all shareholder matters equal to fifty-one percent (51%) of the total vote. For example, if there are 22,050,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock issued and outstanding at the time of a shareholder vote, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class, will have the right to vote an aggregate of 22,950,000 shares, out of a total number of 45,000,000 shares voting. Additionally, the Company shall not adopt any amendments to the Company's Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation, as amended, make any changes to the Certificate of Designations establishing the Series A Preferred Stock, or effect any reclassification of the Series A Preferred Stock, without the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock. However, the Company may, by any means authorized by law and without any vote of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock, make technical, corrective, administrative or similar changes to such Certificate of Designations that do not, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect the rights or preferences of the holders of shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
Provisions of the Company’s Charter or By-Laws which would delay, deter or prevent a change in control of the Company:
There are no special provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws which would specifically delay, deter or prevent a change in control of the Company; however, due to the nature of the 51% voting rights associated with the Company’s outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock, which shares are currently held by the Company’s sole officer and Director, Jerry Swinford, it may be difficult if not impossible for shareholders of the Company to remove Mr. Swinford as a Director of the Company, and consequently as an officer of the Company. Additionally, under Nevada law and the Company’s Bylaws, any vote to remove a Director from office must receive the vote of at least 2/3 of the Company’s outstanding shares.
Additionally, the Company has 9,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized and undesignated. Shares of preferred stock designated by our Board of Directors in the future may have voting powers superior to our common stock and/or outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as adopted by the Board of Directors. Such preferred stock, if authorized in the future, may contain provisions (including voting rights) which could delay, deter or prevent a change in control of the Company.
DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED STOCK OF COIL TUBING
Coil Tubing designated 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value per share in May 2007 (the "Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock"). The Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock have no dividend rights, no liquidation preference, no redemption rights and no conversion rights. Shortly thereafter, Coil Tubing granted all 1,000,000 shares of such Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock to its sole officer and Director, Jerry Swinford. The 1,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock have the right, voting in aggregate, to vote on all shareholder matters equal to fifty-one percent (51%) of the total vote. Additionally, Coil Tubing shall not adopt any amendments to Coil Tubing's Bylaws, Articles of Incorporation, as amended, make any changes to the Certificate of Designations establishing the Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock, or effect any reclassification of the Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock, without the affirmative vote of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding shares of Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock. However, Coil Tubing may, by any means authorized by law and without any vote of the holders of shares of Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock, make technical, corrective, administrative or similar changes to such Certificate of Designations that do not, individually or in the aggregate, adversely affect the rights or preferences of the holders of shares of Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock.
In May 2007, we and Coil Tubing entered into an 1) Agreement and Release and 2) a Novation of Agreement For Exchange of Common Stock (collectively the “Release and Restatement”) with Grifco, our Chief Executive Officer and Director, Jerry Swinford and James Dial, the then Chief Executive Officer of Grifco. Pursuant to the Release and Restatement, the parties agreed that Grifco would distribute the 75,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing which it held (which shares were received in connection with the Exchange Agreement, described above, which shares have been distributed to date) to its shareholders (which shareholders will participate in the Distribution) and Coil Tubing would issue Grifco 1,000,000 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which will have no voting rights and will not participate in the Distribution, but will be convertible into 20,000,000 shares of Coil Tubing common stock, if Grifco exercises its option to purchase the Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing. The “Option Period” which allows Grifco the right to purchase the Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing for aggregate consideration of $100 lasts two (2) years from the date Mr. Swinford no longer desires to hold the Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing. The Company anticipates that Mr. Swinford will no longer desire to hold the Coil Tubing Series A Preferred Stock of Coil Tubing at such time as we have conducted our distribution.
SHARES AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE
After the Distribution, we will have 22,050,000 shares of common stock outstanding. Of those 22,050,000 shares of common stock outstanding, approximately 20,000,000 shares will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares held by an “affiliate” of us, which will be subject to the resale limitations of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.
Rule 144 governs resale of "restricted securities" for the account of any person (other than an issuer), and restricted and unrestricted securities for the account of an "affiliate" of the issuer. Restricted securities generally include any securities acquired directly or indirectly from an issuer or its affiliates which were not issued or sold in connection with a public offering registered under the Securities Act. An affiliate of the issuer is any person who directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, the issuer. Affiliates of the Company may include its directors, executive officers, and persons directly or indirectly owning 10% or more of the outstanding common stock. Under Rule 144, non-affiliates are able to sell restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144, after six months, subject to certain conditions, including if the Company is current in its reporting obligations with the Commission and remains current for an additional period of six months, and thereafter after one year, with no volume or reporting obligations.
Under Rule 144, affiliates are able to sell restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144 after six months, subject to certain conditions, including if the Company is current in its reporting obligations with the Commission and remains current for an additional period of six months, as well as other requirements described below. Resales by the Company's affiliates of restricted and unrestricted common stock are subject to volume limitation, aggregation, broker transaction, notice filing requirements, and requirements concerning publicly available information about the Company ("Applicable Requirements"). The volume limitations provide that a person (or persons who must aggregate their sales) cannot, within any three-month period, sell more than the greater of one percent of the then outstanding shares, or the average weekly reported trading volume during the four calendar weeks preceding each such sale.

COIL TUBING TECHNOLOGY HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. (“CTTH” or “Company”) was incorporated on July 2, 1999 under the laws of the State of Texas. In May 2007, the Company converted to a Nevada corporation. The Company specializes in the design of proprietary tools for the coil tubing industry. The Company concentrates on four categories of coil tubing applications: thru tubing fishing, thru tubing work over, pipeline clean out, and coil tubing drilling. CTTH supplies a full line of tools to oil companies, coiled tubing operations and service companies.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the September 30, 2008 interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements which would substantially duplicate the disclosure contained in the audited financial statements for fiscal 2007 have been omitted.
a. Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation, and Precision Machining Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, As well as the parent of the Company, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc. (“Coil Tubing”), a Nevada corporation.
b. Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
c. Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
d. Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share has been calculated by dividing the net income (loss) for the year by the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding. There are no common stock equivalents outstanding as of September 30, 2008.
e. Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenue is generated primarily from the rental of its tools used for oilfield services primarily in the States of Texas and Louisiana. Rental income is recognized over the rental periods, which are generally from one to 30 days. The estimated amounts of sales discounts, returns and allowances are accounted for as reductions of sales when the sale occurs and the realization of collectibility is reasonably assured. These estimated amounts are based on historical amounts and adjusted periodically based on changes in facts and circumstances when the changes become known to the Company.
The Company recognizes product sales generally at the time the product is shipped. Concurrent with the recognition of revenue, the Company provides for the estimated cost of estimated product returns. Sales incentives are generally classified as a reduction of revenue and are recognized at the later of when revenue is recognized or when the incentive is offered. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.
f. Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements using the fair value method in accordance with the provisions of the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 123 (revised 2004) (Share-Based Payment) (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation), and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees). SFAS 123R requires that the fair value of employees awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled after implementation, under share-based payment arrangements, be measured as of the date the award is issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled. The resulting cost is then recognized in the statement of earnings over the service period.
The Company periodically issues common stock for acquisitions and services rendered. Common stock issued is valued at the estimated fair market value, as determined by management and board of directors. Management and the board of directors considers market price quotations, recent stock offering prices and other factors in determining fair market value for purposes of valuing the common stock. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the various weighted average assumptions, including dividend yield, expected volatility, average risk-free interest rate and expected lives
g. Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
h. Rental Tools
Rental tools are recorded on the Company’s books as rental equipment, at cost. The primary focus of the rental equipment is to generate rental income. As a result, the Company does not list inventory as a line item on the Company’s balance sheet.
The Company recognizes product sales generally at the time the product is shipped. Concurrent with the recognition of revenue, the Company provides for the estimated cost of estimated product returns. Sales incentives are generally classified as a reduction of revenue and are recognized at the later of when revenue is recognized or when the incentive is offered. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold. Sales of coil tubing related products are primarily derived from instances were a customer has a specific need for a particular coil tubing related product and desires to have the Company obtain and/or manufacture the particular product. These sales may include replacement parts, as well as proprietary tools which are manufactured to the customer’s specification, but which are not part of the Company’s tool line. This is not a significant source of revenue for the Company at this time.
i. Impact of New Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
j. Customer Deposits
The Company receives deposits from customers under certain agreements. Deposits are usually liquidated over the period of product deliveries.
NOTE 3 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At September 30, 2008, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,939,309 and had a net loss and cash used in operations of $319,529 and $238,789, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations or obtain adequate financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
NOTE 4 - RESTATEMENT
The September 30, 2007 interim consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the “push down” of the Company’s acquisition by Grifco International, Inc. (“Grifco”) in March 2005 and to correct some timing issues associated with accounts payable which were discovered in 2007. The Company also re-valued its preferred and common stock issuances during 2007 which resulted in additional stock-based compensation. See further discussion in the notes below.
A summary of the September 30, 2007 restatements are as follows:

The adjusting entries were to record the acquisition of the Company in March 2005 by Grifco International, Inc. at fair value and record the push down to the Company. Certain assets were recorded at their fair value and $283,068 was recorded as goodwill. The amount allocated to identifiable intangible assets was determined by the Company's management in accordance with the guidance contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142 ("SFAS 142") "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." Due to the loss from operations in 2005, the goodwill was impaired during the period ended December 31, 2005.
The Company also reclassified cost of rental income - depreciation in accordance with the adjusted basis. The Company also discovered certain unrecorded liabilities and adjusted accounts payable as of September 30, 2007.
The adjusting entries were also to record the fair market value of the Series A Preferred stock and common stock issued to Mr. Swinford in May, June and July 2007 for services rendered. The fair market value was determined by the Company's management in accordance with the guidance contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") in FAS 157.
The adjusting entries also included a loss from discontinued operations of $40,600 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 that represented stock-based compensation and stock issued in connection with a Settlement Agreement recorded by our legal parent company Coil Tubing. The fair market value was determined by the Company's management in accordance with the guidance contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") in FAS 157.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors
Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc.
Spring, Texas
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion of 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 audits 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 audits 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 also 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 the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statement referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years then ended, in conformity with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 4 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company's recurring losses from operations, and its need for additional financing in order to fund its projected loss in 2008 raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The 2007 consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 2 to these consolidated financial statements, restatements were made to the previously reported assets, liabilities, stockholders’ equity and net loss for the year ended December 31, 2006 and revalued its equity transactions in 2007. These were discovered by the management during 2007 and 2008. Accordingly, adjustments have been made as of December 31, 2006 and 2007 to correct the errors.

COIL TUBING TECHNOLOGY HOLDINGS, INC.
Notes To The Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS
Coil Tubing Technology Holdings, Inc. (“CTTH” or the “Company”) was incorporated on July 2, 1999 under the laws of the State of Texas. In May 2007, the Company converted to a Nevada corporation. The Company specializes in the design of proprietary tools for the coil tubing industry. The Company concentrates on four categories of coil tubing applications: thru tubing fishing, thru tubing work over, pipeline clean out, and coil tubing drilling. CTTH supplies a full line of tools to oil companies, coiled tubing operations and service companies.
CTTH is a majority owned subsidiary of Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (“Coil Tubing”) which is a non-reporting company. Coil Tubing agreed to distribute to its shareholders of record, date yet to be determined, 100% of the common shares of CTTH that it owns totaling 20,000,000 million shares or 95% of the issued and outstanding shares. Subsequent to the spin-off, Coil Tubing will no longer have an ownership interest in CTTH. Notwithstanding the legal form of the distribution, the distribution will be accounted for as a reverse spin off in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 02-11, “Accounting for Reverse Spin-offs.” Accordingly, CTTH is considered the divesting entity and treated as the “accounting successor” to Coil Tubing for financial reporting purposes. This is required because the business transferred generated all of Coil Tubing's revenue and constituted a majority of its book value. Coil Tubing will be treated as discontinued operations following the spin-off.
As a result of the application of EITF 02-11, the accompanying consolidated financial statements included all of the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation ("CTT Texas"), and Precision Machining Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, and Coil Tubing, our parent company.
In August 2007, Grifco International, Inc. (“Grifco”) distributed approximately 75,000,000 shares of the common stock of Coil Tubing which it held to its shareholders as of May 1, 2006.
NOTE 2 - RESTATEMENT
The December 31, 2006 consolidated financial statements have been restated to reflect the “push-down” of the Company’s acquisition by Grifco in March 2005 and to correct some timing issues associated with accounts payable which were discovered in 2007. The Company also re-valued its preferred and common stock issuances during 2007 and 2006 which resulted in additional stock-based compensation. See further discussion in the notes below.
A summary of the December 31, 2006 restatements is as follows:

The adjusting entries were to record the acquisition of the Company in March 2005 by Grifco International, Inc. at fair value and record the push-down to the Company. Certain assets were recorded at their fair value and $283,068 was recorded as goodwill. The amount allocated to identifiable intangible assets was determined by the Company's management in accordance with the guidance contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 142 ("SFAS 142") "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". Due to the loss from operations in 2005, the goodwill was impaired during the period ended December 31, 2005.
The adjusting entries above reflect the original purchase price allocation from March 20, 2005. On March 20, 2005, CTTH was acquired by Grifco International, Inc. (“Grifco”) in connection with a Definitive Acquisition Stock Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”). Under the Agreement, Grifco acquired 100% of the outstanding common stock of CTTH for $510,000. Subsequent to the acquisition in November 2005, CTTH entered into a reverse acquisition with IPMC Holdings Corp., a Florida corporation (“IPMC”). The legal acquirer was IPMC, and in connection with the reverse acquisition changed its name to Coil Tubing Technology, Inc. a Nevada corporation (“Coil Tubing”). The accounting acquirer was CTTH and it did not assume any assets or liabilities in connection with the reverse acquisition. As a result of the reverse acquisition Grifco owned 75,000,000 common shares or 89% of Coil Tubing.
The original purchase price allocation of the acquisition by Grifco was as follows:
Cash | | $ | 2,932 | |
Accounts receivable, net | | | 20,289 | |
Rental tools | | | 298,731 | |
Property and equipment | | | 8,526 | |
Goodwill | | | 283,068 | |
Accounts payable | | | (18,780 | ) |
Notes payable | | | (84,766 | ) |
Total purchase price | | $ | 510,000 | |
The restatements for the “push-down” were based on the original purchase price allocation plus subsequent capital expenditures and depreciation.
The adjusting entries were also to record the fair market value of the common stock issued to Mr. Swinford and Ms. Newman in January 2006. The fair market value was determined by the Company's management in accordance with the guidance contained in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") in FAS 157. The adjusting entries also resulted in a loss from discontinued operations of $193,600, see Note 11.
The Company also reclassified cost of rental income -depreciation in accordance with the adjusted basis. The Company also discovered certain unrecorded liabilities and adjusted accounts payable as of December 31, 2006.

The Company also reclassified cost of rental income - depreciation in accordance with the adjusted basis as of December 31, 2007. The company also recorded the stock compensation incurred by its parent company.
NOTE 3 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
a. Consolidated Financial Statements
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of CTTH and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Coil Tubing Technology, Inc., a Texas corporation, and Precision Machining Resources, Inc., a Texas corporation, as well as Coil Tubing, the parent company of CITH.
All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
b. Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
c. Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable consists of amounts billed and currently due from customers. The Company monitors the aging of its accounts receivable and related facts and circumstances to determine if an allowance should be established for doubtful accounts. The Company recorded an allowance of $2,532 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
d. Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
e. Machinery and Equipment
Machinery and Equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight line method over the useful lives of the assets of five to seven years. Maintenance, repairs, and minor renewals and betterments are charged to expense as incurred. When assets are sold or otherwise disposed of, the cost and the related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is recognized.
f. Rental Tools
Rental tools are recorded on the Company’s books as rental equipment, at cost. The primary focus of the rental equipment is to generate rental income. As a result, the Company does not list inventory as a line item on the Company’s balance sheet.
The Company recognizes product sales generally at the time the product is shipped. Concurrent with the recognition of revenue, the Company provides for the estimated cost of estimated product returns. Sales incentives are generally classified as a reduction of revenue and are recognized at the later of when revenue is recognized or when the incentive is offered. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold. Sales of coil tubing related products are primarily derived from instances were a customer has a specific need for a particular coil tubing related product and desires to have the Company obtain and/or manufacture the particular product. These sales may include replacement parts, as well as proprietary tools which are manufactured to the customer’s specification, but which are not part of the Company’s tool line. This is not a significant source of revenue for the Company at this time.
Lost or destroyed tools is not a significant source of revenue for the Company; however, the Company bills customers for the full cost of any tools which are lost and/or damaged in use and the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting revenue or expense is recognized. The gain or loss on lost tools is recognized in the revenue section and cost of sales expense, respectively.
g. Earnings Per Common Share
Earnings per common share has been calculated by dividing the net income (loss) for the year by the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding. There are no common stock equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
h. Revenue Recognition
The Company's revenue is generated primarily from the rental of its tools used for oilfield services primarily in the States of Texas and Louisiana. Rental income is recognized over the rental periods, which are generally from one to 30 days. The estimated amounts of sales discounts, returns and allowances are accounted for as reductions of sales when the sale occurs and the realization of collectibility is reasonably assured. These estimated amounts are based on historical amounts and adjusted periodically based on changes in facts and circumstances when the changes become known to the Company.
The Company recognizes product sales generally at the time the product is shipped. Concurrent with the recognition of revenue, the Company provides for the estimated cost of product returns. Sales incentives are generally classified as a reduction of revenue and are recognized at the later of when revenue is recognized or when the incentive is offered. Shipping and handling costs are included in cost of goods sold.
i. Stock Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements using the fair value method in accordance with the provisions of the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No, 123 (revised 2004) (Share-Based Payment) (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R is a revision of SFAS 123 (Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation), and supersedes Accounting Principles Beard (“APB”) Opinion No. 25 (Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees). SFAS 123R requires that the fair value of employees awards issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled after implementation, under share-based payment arrangements, be measured as of the date the award is issued, modified, repurchased or cancelled. The resulting cost is then recognized in the statement of earnings over the service period.
The Company periodically issues common stock for acquisitions and services rendered. Common stock issued is valued at the estimated fair market value, as determined by management and board of directors. Management and the board of directors consider market price quotations, recent stock offering prices and other factors in determining fair market value for purposes of valuing the common stock. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the various weighted average assumptions, including dividend yield, expected volatility, average risk-free interest rate and expected lives.
j. Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.
k. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount at which the instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. The carrying amounts of financial assets and liabilities, such as cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments and market rates of interest.
l. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The carrying values of the fixed assets are evaluated whenever changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If necessary, the Company recognizes an impairment loss for the difference between the carrying amount of the assets and their estimated fair value. Fair value is based on current and anticipated future undiscounted cash flows. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, no impairment has incurred.
m. Customer Deposits
The Company receives deposits from customers under certain agreements. Deposits are usually liquidated over the period of product deliveries.
n. Impact of New Accounting Standards
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations. SFAS 141R establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree. SFAS No. 141R also provides guidance for recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statement to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. SFAS 141R is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We expect SFAS No. 141R will have an impact on our consolidated financial statements when effective, but the nature and magnitude of the specific effects will depend upon the nature, terms and size of the acquisitions we consummate after the effective date. We are still assessing the impact of this standard on our future consolidated financial statements.
In July 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation ("FIN") No. 48 Accounting for Uncertainly in Income Taxes - An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes detailed guidance for the financial statement recognition, measurement, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in an enterprise's financial statements in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized upon the adoption of FIN 48 and in subsequent periods. FIN 48 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and the provisions of FIN 48 will be applied to all positions upon the adoption of the Interpretation. The cumulative effect of this applying the provisions of this Interpretation will be reported as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings for that fiscal year. Management is currently evaluating the impact of FIN 48 on the financial statements but does not believe that its adoption will have a material effect on the Companies' financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Management is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 157 will have on the Company's financial position, results of operations, 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." This Statement permits all entities to choose, at specified election dates, to measure eligible items at fair value (the "fair value option"). A business entity shall report unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected in earnings (or another performance indicator if the business entity does not report earnings) at each subsequent reporting date. Upfront costs and fees related to items for which the fair value option is elected shall be recognized in earnings as incurred and not deferred. If an entity elects the fair value option for a held-to-maturity or available-for-sale security in conjunction with the adoption of this Statement, that security shall be reported as a trading security under Statement 115, but the accounting for a transfer to the trading category under paragraph 15(b) of Statement 115 does not apply. Electing the fair value option for an existing held-to-maturity security will not call into question the intent of an entity to hold other debt securities to maturity in the future. This statement is effective as of the first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently analyzing the effects SFAS 159 will have on the Company's financial condition and results of operations.
The Company is evaluating the impact of other technical pronouncements and is not able to determine the impact, if any, that they will have on the financial statements of the Company.
NOTE 4 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At December 31, 2007, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $1,619,780 for the year then ended and had a net loss of $474,141 and cash used in operations of $231,784. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations or obtain adequate financing. The financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
NOTE 5 - RENTAL TOOLS
Rental tools are depreciated over their estimated useful life of 5 years and are presented in the accompanying financial statements, net of accumulated depreciation of $377,915 and $345,655 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, depreciation expense was $108,875 and $85,152, respectively. The depreciation expense related to rental tools is classified in cost of sales.
NOTE 6 – MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, machinery and equipment consisted of:
| Estimated | | | | | | |
| Useful Lives | | 2007 | | | 2006 | |
| | | | | | | |
Furniture | 7 years | | $ | 1,879 | | | $ | 1,879 | |
Office equipment | 5 years | | | 10,469 | | | | 9,668 | |
Shop Equipment | 5 years | | | 30,722 | | | | 26,446 | |

Less accumulated depreciation | | | | (21,412 | ) | | | (9,462 | ) |
| | | $ | 47,528 | | | $ | 49,651 | |
For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, depreciation expense was $11,950 and $8,217, respectively.
NOTE 7 – LOAN PAYABLE OFFICER
Loan payable officer represents amounts loaned to the Company from its president. The loans are non-interest bearing and due on demand.
NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Implementation of SFAS 109 did not have a material cumulative effect on prior periods nor did it result in a change to the current year's provision.
The effective tax rate for the Company is reconcilable to statutory tax rates as follows:
| | December 31, |
| | 2007 | | | 2006 | |
U. S. Federal statutory tax rate | | | 34 | % | | | 34 | % |
U.S. valuation change | | | (34 | ) | | | (34 | ) |
Effective U. S. tax rate | | | - | % | | | - | % |
| | | | | | | | |
Income tax expense (benefit) attributable to income from continuing operations differed from the amounts computed by applying the U.S. Federal income tax of 34% to pretax income from continuing operations as a result of the following:
| | December 31, | |
| | 2007 Restated | | | 2006 Restated | |
Computed expected tax benefit | | $ | (160,000 | ) | | $ | (244,000 | ) |
Increase in valuation allowance | | | 160,000 | | | | 244,000 | |
Income tax expense | | $ | - | | | $ | - | |
The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively and are presented below:
| | December 31, | |
| | 2007 Restated | | | 2006 Restated | |
Deferred tax assets: | | | | | | |
Net operating loss carry forwards | | $ | (551,000 | ) | | $ | (389,500 | ) |
Less valuation allowance | | | 551,000 | | | | 389,500 | |
Net deferred tax assets | | $ | - | | | $ | - | |
Management has determined that a valuation allowance of $1,619,000 at December 31, 2007 is necessary to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that will more than likely not be realized. The change in valuation allowance for 2007 was approximately $474,000. As of December 31, 2007, the Company has a net operating loss carry-forward of $1,619,000, which is available to offset future federal taxable income, if any, with expiration ending 2027.
At December 31, 2007, the Company had net operating loss carry–forwards for Federal income tax purposes of approximately $1,619,000 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2027. The realization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets of approximately $160,000 was not considered more likely than not and accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the net loss carry-forwards are fully offset by a valuation allowance.
There are no significant differences between the Company’s operating results for financial reporting purposes than for income tax purposes
NOTE 9 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
The total number of shares of stock of all classes which the Company has authority to issue is five hundred ten million (510,000,000), of which ten million (10,000,000) are shares of Preferred Stock with a par value of $.001 per share ("Preferred Stock"), and five hundred million (500,000,000) are shares of Common Stock with a par value of $.001 per share ("Common Stock").
COMMON STOCK
As of December 31, 2007, the Company had 21,000,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock issued and outstanding.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock and 1,000,000 shares of common stock in connection with a compensation agreement with our chief executive officer valued at $120,300. The Company valued the common and preferred shares at their fair value on the date of issuance of such shares.
On June 19, 2007, the board of directors approved a 392.1568627 for one (1) forward stock split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The stock split is presented retroactively in these financial statements. Any partial shares have been rounded up to the next share.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Company has 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized. The shares of preferred stock of the Company may be issued from time to time in one or more series, each of which shall have a distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company ("Board of Directors") prior to the issuance of any shares thereof. The preferred stock shall have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof as adopted by the Board of Directors.
On June 19, 2007, the Company issued 1,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock to Jerry Swinford, its sole officer and Director. The Series A Preferred Stock has the right to vote, in aggregate, on all shareholder matters equal to 51% of the total vote. The Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to this 51% voting right no matter how many shares of common stock or other voting stock of the Company are issued or outstanding in the future (the “Super Majority Voting Rights”). The Company designated the shares of Series A Preferred Stock with the Super Majority Voting Rights, so that Mr. Swinford would retain control over the Company for as long as he held the Series A Preferred Stock, regardless of the number of shares of common stock of the Company which were outstanding.
PARENT COMPANY
During 2007 and 2006, Coil Tubing issued 150,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of Series A and Series B preferred stock. The common stock and the Series A preferred stock were issued for services. The Series B preferred stock was issued to Grifco in connection with entering into a settlement agreement and release. The common and preferred shares were valued at $40,600 and $193,600 for the years ending 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company valued the common and preferred shares at their value on the date of issuance of such shares.
During 2007, Coil Tubing entered into a stock subscription agreement which resulted in Coil Tubing receiving $500,000 for the issuance of 22,727,272 shares of common stock. In connection with entering into the stock subscription agreement, Coil Tubing also granted warrants to purchase an additional 22,727,272 shares for $500,000. Coil Tubing contributed the entire $500,000 received in 2007 to the Company and Coil Tubing considers these amounts as permanent contributions to the Company.
Further, Coil Tubing canceled 75,000,000 shares common of stock in each 2007 and 2006 related to the 150,000,000 shares of common stock issued in 2006 for services.
GRIFCO CONTRIBUTIONS
During 2006, Grifco contributed $500,488 to Coil Tubing which Coil Tubing contributed to the Company. In early 2007, in addition to the $500,000 capital contribution by Coil Tubing, Grifco contributed an additional $55,800 and made advances in 2007 totaling $75,000. The advances were repaid in full in the second quarter of 2007 and no additional contributions were made by Grifco after March 2007.
NOTE 10 – CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The Company had gross sales of approximately $900,427 and $235,822 for years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The Company had three customers that represented approximately 61%, 15% and 10% of gross sales for the year ended December 31, 2007 and had two customers that represented 26 % and 26% of gross sales for the year ended December 31, 2006. The three customers accounted for 49%, 29% and 10% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2007. The two customers accounted for 34% and 17% of accounts receivable at December 31, 2006.
NOTE 11 - REVERSE SPIN-OFF & DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
The Company is a majority owned subsidiary of Coil Tubing, a non-reporting company. Coil Tubing agreed to distribute to its shareholders of record, on a date not yet established, 100% of the common shares of the Company that it owns, totaling 20,000,000 million shares or 95% of the outstanding shares of the Company. Subsequent to the spin-off, Coil Tubing will no longer have an ownership interest in the Company. Notwithstanding the legal form of the distribution, the distribution is presented in the accompanying financial statements as a reverse spin off in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 02-11, “Accounting for Reverse Spin-offs.” Accordingly, the Company is considered the divesting entity and treated as the “accounting successor” to Coil Tubing for financial reporting purposes. This is required based on the business transferred (i) generated all of Coil Tubing’s revenue and (ii) constituted a majority of its book value. Also, as a result, Coil Tubing is being presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying financial statements.
CTTH will record $40,600 and $193,600 as a loss from discontinued operations for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively as a result of the distribution. CTTH’s parent company Coil Tubing has no assets, liabilities and operations as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. The loss from discontinued operations will be a result of stock compensation.

Coil Tubing received $500,000 from the sale of its common stock and warrants, see Note 9, in 2007. The capital transaction recorded in the above Parent Only Financial Statements had a net zero effect from the $500,000 capital contribution, offset by a distribution of the same amount in 2007.
NOTE 12 – COMMITMENTS
In July 2007, the Company retained Jerry Swinford as its President and Chief Executive Officer pursuant to an employment agreement which was subsequently amended in September 2007 ("Employment Agreement"). In connection with entering into the Employment Agreement, the Company also entered into a Licensing Agreement (also subsequently amended in September 2007) and a Waiver of Royalties Agreement with Mr. Swinford. The Employment Agreement provides for Mr. Swinford to receive a salary of $120,000 for the first year, (pro rated for the remainder of the year), with yearly increases, assuming such agreement is extended past the initial term or through December 31, 2008, of a minimum of 10% of the prior year’s salary, for each additional year he is employed under the agreement. The Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Swinford will retain all rights to any inventions he may discover, originate or invent.
Under the Licensing Agreement, Mr. Swinford is entitled to a royalty of 10% of gross revenue from each invention licensed, with a minimum royalty of $100,000 per year. The royalty increases to 20% of gross revenue, with a minimum royalty of $200,000 per year, from each invention licensed for which a patent has been issued.
Under the Waiver of Royalties Agreement, Mr. Swinford agreed to waive any royalties due to him as long as he was employed by the Company and on the Board of Directors. If Mr. Swinford's employment with the Company ceases or if he is removed from the Board of Directors, the Waiver of Royalties Agreement will terminate and the Company will be obligated to pay the royalties due under the Licensing Agreement. Further, if the Company fails to meet the minimum royalties requirements, Mr. Swinford may elect to terminate the Licensing Agreement or, alternatively, convert the license to a non-exclusive license with sixty (60) day written notice to the Company. Most, if not all, of the Company's rental tools were developed based on Mr. Swinford's inventions and were developed pursuant to the Licensing Agreement; however, the rental tools are and will remain the property of the Company.
Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Swinford received 1,000,000 shares of our common stock upon the execution of the Agreement. At the expiration of the initial term, December 31, 2008, and each extension year he is employed under the Employment Agreement, the Company is to issue him additional shares of common stock equal to 5% of the Company's then shares of outstanding common stock. For example, if at the end of the December 31, 2008 Mr. Swinford is employed under the Employment Agreement and the Company has 21,000,000 shares of common stock outstanding, Mr. Swinford will receive 1,050,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Employment Agreement.
For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company incurred rental expenses of approximately $36,000 and $25,000, respectively. The Company accounts for rent expense over the related lease term on a straight-line method. The current leases are on a month-to-month basis.
NOTE 13 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In January 2008, a shareholder of Coil Tubing exercised warrants to purchase Coil Tubing’s common stock for $500,000. Coil Tubing contributed the $500,000 to the Company and Coil Tubing considers these amounts as permanent contributions to the Company.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
On or about June 19, 2007, our Board of Directors approved the designation of 1,000,000 shares of our Series A Preferred Stock, which shares of Series A Preferred Stock were immediately issued to our sole officer and Director, Jerry Swinford. The Shares of Series A Preferred Stock allow Mr. Swinford to vote an amount of shares equal to 51% of our total outstanding shares on any shareholder votes, effectively giving Mr. Swinford voting control over the Company. The Company claims an exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(2) of the Act since the issuance did not involve a public offering, the recipient took the shares for investment and not resale, the recipient had such access to similar information which would be included in an offering prospectus, and the Company took appropriate measures to restrict transfer. No underwriters or agents were involved in the issuance and no underwriting discounts or commissions were paid by the Company.

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(a) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(b) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in the volume and rise represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(c) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material changes to such information in the Registration Statement.
2. For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.
3. To file a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
4. For determining liability of the undersigned issuer under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned issuer pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned issuer will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned issuer;
iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned issuer or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned issuer; and
iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned issuer to the purchaser.
5. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer of controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
6. For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant under Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the Commission declared it effective.
7. For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities.
8. That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:
a). If the issuer is relying on Rule 430B:
1. Each prospectus filed by the undersigned issuer pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and
2. Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or
