PART I

ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Overview

In this Annual Report the words “Turnaround Partners” “Turnaround Partners, Inc.”, “Turnaround”, the "Company", "we", "our" and "us" refer to Turnaround Partners, Inc., (formerly Emerge Capital Corp, formerly NuWave Technologies, Inc. (“NuWave”)) collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. Our fiscal year ends on December 31st.

On August 31, 2005, NuWave entered into a merger agreement (the "Agreement") with Corporate Strategies, Inc. ("Corporate Strategies") and the shareholders of Corporate Strategies ("Shareholders"). The Company was subsequently renamed Turnaround Partners, Inc. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition since control of the merged group passed to the shareholders of the acquired company (Corporate Strategies).

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company issued one (1) share of its common stock ("Common Stock"), par value $0.001 per share, to each holder of Corporate Strategies Class A common stock in exchange for two (2) shares of Corporate Strategies Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Second, the Company issued one (1) share of the Company's Series C preferred stock ("Series C Preferred"), par value $0.01 per share, to each holder of Corporate Strategies Series A preferred stock for one (1) share of Corporate Strategies Series A preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.

The Company issued and delivered shares of its Series B convertible Preferred stock ("Series B Preferred") to each holder of Corporate Strategies Class B common stock so that effectively upon conversion of the Series B Preferred into common shares, the common shares issued upon conversion shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company (calculated on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the Merger, following the issuance of all the Merger Consideration (as such term is defined in the Agreement) and after giving effect to such conversion, but not including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any then outstanding Company convertible debentures. Therefore, the Merger Consideration for the Common Stock, Series C Preferred and Series B Preferred was the Corporate Strategies Class A common, Series A preferred and Class B common, respectively. The number of shares issued to the Shareholders in connection with the Merger was based upon a determination by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").

The terms of the Series B Preferred were subsequently modified. In connection with the Kipling purchase, 93,334 shares of Series B Preferred were exchanged for a like number of Series D Preferred, which were subsequently reduced to 700 shares of Series D Preferred. The remaining 6,666 shares of Series B Preferred are convertible into 4,195,445 shares of common stock. Each share of the Series D may be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time and from time to time after December 31, 2006 through June 30, 2009, into that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such date of conversion, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D and (b) One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock held by the Holders which has not been converted on or before June 30, 2009 into shares of Common Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder of such share, at any time and from time to time after June 30, 2009 into one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on June 30, 2009, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D Preferred Stock. The shares of Common Stock received upon conversion shall be fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Due to the change in control of the Company, Mr. Connolly and his spouse may not convert debentures that would result in ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company at the time of conversion.

The Series B and D Convertible Preferred Stockholders and the holders of the common stock vote together and the Preferred Stock shall be counted on an "as converted" basis, thereby giving the Preferred Shareholders control of the Company.

In November 2006, we migrated from a Delaware corporation to a Nevada corporation and changed the name of the Company to Turnaround Partners, Inc.

On May 31, 2006, we filed an S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the Emerge Capital Corp. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The document was submitted to register 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by (a) providing key people with incentives to improve shareholder value and to contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company, and (b) enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best-available persons. This document is herein incorporated by reference. As of December 31, 2007 there were 7,250,000 shares available under the Plan.

On September 30, 2006, we completed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with Kipling Holdings, Inc. (“Kipling”) and Timothy J. Connolly, to acquire 100% of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Kipling, a Delaware corporation. Kipling holds a limited partnership interest in a hotel in West Palm Beach, Florida.

On December 5, 2007 (the “Closing Date”), the Company filed on Form 8-K Current Report, as amended on December 14, 2007 and February 20, 2008, disclosing that the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mr. Timothy J. Connolly, an individual, and Viewpoint Capital, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Investor”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor one (1) share of the Company’s Series E convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series E Preferred”), which such Series E Preferred is convertible into Three Hundred Million Shares (300,000,000) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) in exchange for the transfer by the Investor to the Company of Four Million (4,000,000) unrestricted, free-trading shares of common stock of Asset Capital Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ACGU Common Stock”) having a value of Three Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,400,000) based on the closing price of ACGU Common Stock as of the Closing Date as reported on the Pink Sheets, LLC. ACGU Common Stock trades under the symbol “ACGU.PK”. As a result of this transaction, the Investor acquired a 63.66% controlling interest in the Company’s Common Stock by virtue of the Investor’s ownership of the Series E Preferred.

On February 13, 2008, the Investor delivered to the Company a notice to convert the one (1) shares of Series E Preferred to Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares of Common Stock. On February 14, 2008, the Company issued to the Investor Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares of Common Stock, all of which are restricted, and canceled the One (1) share of Series E Preferred. As a result of this transaction, the Investor acquired a 63.66% controlling interest in the Common Stock of the Company.

During the month of March 2008, we sold our investment in stock of ACGU for approximately $7,700. Consequently, our investment in marketable securities as of December 2007 includes the net realizable value of these securities sold in March 2008.

Effective as of the Closing Date, Mr. Connolly resigned as Vice Chairman of the Board and as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, however Mr. Connolly shall continue to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Corporate Strategies, Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“CSI”) with the understanding that the business of CSI will be discontinued or spun off to its stockholders. In addition, Mr. Connolly shall continue to receive the same compensation as he has received through the Closing Date for his aforementioned continued services to CSI through December 31, 2008, which such date may be extended by mutual agreement by and among the parties to the Purchase Agreement.

Furthermore, Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) agreed on the Closing Date to relinquish certain non-dilutive rights in favor of Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) contained in Seven Hundred (700) shares of Series D convertible preferred stock held by Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) effective June 30, 2009 (instead of the previous date of December 31, 2010) in exchange for the Company conveying all rights to the names “Turnaround Partners, Inc.”, “Corporate Strategies, Inc.” and “Kipling Holdings, Inc.”, as well as all title to all furniture and equipment in the Houston office of the Company. The parties to the Purchase Agreement also agreed that the names of these companies shall be changed within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Mr. Russell Kidder was appointed to serve as President, Chief Executive Officer and as a Director of the Company effective as of the Closing Date.
 
As disclosed in the Form 8-K Current Report referred to above, the Company disclosed that effective as of December 27, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Registrant (the “Board”) accepted the resignation of (a) Wm. Chris Mathers from his position as Chief Financial Officer of the Registrant and (b) Fred Zeidman from his position as a member of the Board. Mr. Russell Kidder, the Registrant’s current President, Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board, shall serve as interim Chief Financial Officer, effective as of December 27, 2007.

As filed on Form 8-K Current Report on January 3, 2008, the Company disclosed that effective as of December 31, 2007, Corporate Strategies, Inc. (“CSI”), a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Turnaround Partners, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant”) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Natural Nutrition, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“NN”) and CSI Business Finance, Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of NN (together with NN, the “Buyer”) pursuant to which CSI conveyed, transferred and assigned to the Buyer all of its title to and rights in CSI’s ten percent (10%) interest in the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Interactive Nutrition International, Inc., a company organized under the laws of Canada (“INII”) in exchange for the conveyance, transfer and assignment to CSI by the Buyer of certain Notes held by the Buyer (as such term is defined in the Agreement) plus a cash payment equal to One Hundred Ninety-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Ninety-Nine Dollars and Ten Cents ($198,899.10). In addition, NN assumed payment for all of CSI’s office lease, equipment payments and any other payments related to the office space at 109 N. Post Oak Lane, Suite 422, Houston, Texas 77024 for the remainder of the lease term and any renewals.

Operations

Principal services and our market

The discussion below regarding our principal services and market assumes the Company will continue with its current business plan, however, in light of the Company’s change in control of ownership, the Company is contemplating a new business model. Currently, the Company believes the new business plan going forward will be to focus on alternative and clean technologies.

The Company is an established provider of restructuring strategies, turnaround execution and business development services for emerging and re-emerging public companies. The Company markets its services to public companies, hedge funds, institutional investors and banks that have significant exposure in troubled micro-cap public companies. These companies are typically either in operational or financial difficulty and may be in default of lending or equity agreements, and as a result, they may be facing bankruptcy or liquidation if their operations are not turned around. Under our consulting agreements, we do not take positions in securities of our clients that at any one time would cause us to have an ownership interest in them of over 4.99%.

The Company is generally compensated with a combination of cash payments on a monthly or quarterly basis, and outright grants of equity in the form of common stock and/or warrants for purchasing common stock. We believe this compensation plan aligns our interests with the client company's shareholders because our ultimate compensation is maximized by successfully increasing shareholder value. This performance based compensation arrangement clearly demonstrates that our interests are consistent with both our clients and their shareholders.

The Company minimizes risk from our restructuring/turnaround clients by implementing the following policies:

 
·
The Company will not assume the financial obligations of the client company in any circumstance. In most cases, the financial institution with the greatest risk has referred the Company to the transaction.

 
·
The Company requires the client or their investor to provide the client company with working capital necessary to execute the turnaround plan.

 
·
The Company requires the client to fully indemnify the Company against any actions, with the exception of gross negligence or malfeasance.

 
·
If the client has officer and director insurance, we require the client to add the Company or any of the Company's contractors as insured parties under the policy.

 
·
Should the Company consider altering any of the policies above, it will require a vote of our Board of Directors to waive them and agree to the maximum amount of risk that the Company will assume.

The Company also actively trades securities and options with available cash. Many of these transactions contain a considerable amount of risk.

Lehigh Acquisition Corp. ("Lehigh") was a subsidiary of NuWave and was acquired August 31, 2005, the date of the merger. Lehigh was sold on February 3, 2006. These financial statements include the operations of Lehigh through February 3, 2006 as discontinued operations.

Competition for our services

Competition for the services we provide comes mainly from turnaround management and restructuring firms, financial advisory firms, business consulting firms and crisis management groups, many of which have substantially more capital resources than the Company.

To date, a significant portion of our business and financing has come from an institutional fund (YA Global Investments, LP (“YA Global”), (formerly Cornell Capital Partners, LP) that invests primarily in micro-cap companies.

Employees

As of April 10, 2008, the Company has 1 part time employee and employs the services of 2 others on a contract basis. The controller and data entry clerk are considered contract employees whom also work as contract employees for a company sharing an office suite with Turnaround Partners, Inc.

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

We maintain our headquarters in Houston, Texas in a 2,644 square foot office space shared with our then affiliated company, Natural Nutrition, Inc. We believe that the property is adequate and suitable for our current needs.

At the time of the August 2005 merger, the Company, through its wholly owned subsidiary WH Acquisition Corp (“WH”), acquired a residential property consisting of land and a residential building in Jersey City, New Jersey for a total purchase price of $122,000. The purchase price was paid with $113,000 in cash and $9,000 in the form of a deposit. The property was sold in December, 2005 for $165,000 and the Company took a mortgage note in the amount of $148,500 due December 1, 2006, which was extended to May 1, 2007, secured by a mortgage on the property. The debtor has subsequently filed for bankruptcy protection. The property is in danger of condemnation and we may abandon our claim with the bankruptcy court as we have reserved our entire investment in this property. This note receivable has been fully reserved.

In August of 2005, Corporate Strategies, Inc. entered into a share exchange agreement whereby it exchanged all of the common stock of its subsidiary, CSI Business Finance, for 100,000 restricted shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock of Health Express USA Inc. (HEXS.OB) - subsequently named Natural Nutrition, Inc. (NNTN.OB). The preferred stock shares acquired in this transaction were distributed to the shareholders of Corporate Strategies in the form of a dividend.

On August 31, 2005, NuWave Technologies, Inc. ( "NuWave" or "the Company") entered into a merger agreement (the "Agreement") with Corporate Strategies, Inc. ("Corporate Strategies") and the shareholders of Corporate Strategies ("Shareholders"). The Company was subsequently renamed Turnaround Partners, Inc. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition since control of the merged group passed to the shareholders of the acquired company (Corporate Strategies).

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company issued one (1) share of its common stock ("Common Stock"), par value $0.001 per share, to each holder of Corporate Strategies Class A common stock in exchange for two (2) shares of Corporate Strategies Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Second, the Company issued one (1) share of the Company's Series C preferred stock ("Series C Preferred"), par value $0.01 per share, to each holder of Corporate Strategies Series A preferred stock for one (1) share of Corporate Strategies Series A preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.

The Company issued and delivered shares of its Series B convertible Preferred stock ("Series B Preferred") to each holder of Corporate Strategies Class B common stock so that effectively upon conversion of the Series B Preferred into common shares, the common shares issued upon conversion shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company (calculated on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the Merger, following the issuance of all the Merger Consideration (as such term is defined in the Agreement) and after giving effect to such conversion, but not including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any then outstanding Company convertible debentures ). Therefore, the Merger Consideration for the
Common Stock, Series C Preferred and Series B Preferred was the Corporate Strategies Class A common, Series A preferred and Class B common, respectively. The number of shares issued to the Shareholders in connection with the Merger was based upon a determination by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").

The terms of the Series B Preferred were subsequently modified. In connection with the Kipling purchase, 93,334 shares of Series B Preferred were exchanged for a like number of Series D Preferred, which were subsequently reduced to 700 shares of Series D Preferred. The remaining 6,666 shares of Series B Preferred are convertible into 4,195,445 shares of common stock. Each share of the Series D may be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time and from time to time after December 31, 2006 through June 30, 2009, into that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such date of conversion, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D and (b) One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock held by the Holders which has not been converted on or before June 30, 2009 into shares of Common Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder of such share, at any time and from time to time after June 30, 2009 into one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on June 30, 2009, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D Preferred Stock. The shares of Common Stock received upon conversion shall be fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Due to the change in control of the Company, Mr. Connolly and his spouse may not convert debentures that would result in ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company at the time of conversion.

The Series B and D Preferred shareholders and the holders of the common stock vote together and the Series B and D Preferred shall be counted on an "as converted" basis, thereby giving the Series B and D Preferred shareholders control of the Company. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition since control of the merged group passed to the shareholders of the acquired company (Corporate Strategies).

On October 27, 2006, we filed a Schedule 14C Information statement. This information statement was furnished to all holders of shares of common stock and Series B and D convertible preferred stock of record at the close of business on October 23, 2006. Within this statement, the corporate actions involved three proposals providing for the following:

  
1.
To approve a change of name of the Company to Turnaround Partners, Inc;
   
2.
To approve the migration of the Company from a Delaware corporation to a Nevada corporation; and
  
3.
To approve an increase of the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company from Nine Hundred Million (900,000,000) to Five Billion (5,000,000,000) shares.

Lehigh Acquisition Corp. ("Lehigh") was a subsidiary of NuWave and is treated as if it was acquired August 31, 2005, the date of the merger. Lehigh was sold on February 3, 2006. The financial statements include the operations of Lehigh through February 3, 2006 as discontinued operations.

On May 31, 2006, we filed an S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the Turnaround Partners, Inc. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The document was submitted to register 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by (a) providing key people with incentives to improve shareholder value and to contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company, and (b) enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best-available persons. This document is herein incorporated by reference.

On June 26, 2006, we filed an SB-2 with the Securities Exchange Commission. The prospectus related to the registration of (a) 1,860,000 shares of common stock of Turnaround Partners, Inc. that would have been offered for sale from time to time by YA Global, (b) 937,500 shares of common stock of Turnaround Partners, Inc. that would have been offered for sale from time to time by iVoice, Inc. and (c) 2,812,500 shares of common stock of Turnaround Partners, Inc. that would have been distributed by dividend by iVoice to all of the Class A common stockholders of iVoice. Turnaround Partners, Inc. was not selling any shares of common stock in this offering and therefore would not have received any proceeds from this offering. On August 31, 2006, we formally withdrew this registration statement pursuant to Rule 477(a) under the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Pursuant to the purchase of our interest in Kipling effective September 25, 2006, the Board of Directors approved the designation of Series D convertible preferred stock (the “Series D”), par value of $0.01, to consist of up to One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares. As a result of the Kipling purchase, on December 31, 2006, the Board of Directors reduced the 93,334 shares of then outstanding Series D owned by our CEO, Timothy J. Connolly, and his spouse to Seven Hundred (700) shares of Series D. The Series D ranks pari passu with the common stock of the Company on an “as converted” basis, and senior to the Company’s Series A, B and C preferred stock. The holders of the Series D are entitled to receive dividends or distributions on a pro rata basis when and if dividends are declared on our Common Stock, but with no liquidation preference. Each share of the Series D may be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time and from time to time after December 31, 2006 through June 30, 2009, into that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such date of conversion, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D and (b) One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock held by the Holders which has not been converted on or before June 30, 2009 into shares of Common Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder of such share, at any time and from time to time after June 30, 2009 into one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on June 30, 2009, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D Preferred Stock. The shares of Common Stock received upon conversion shall be fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Due to the change in control of the Company, Mr. Connolly and his spouse may not convert debentures that would result in ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company at the time of conversion.

On September 30, 2006, we completed a stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Kipling Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation from Timothy J. Connolly in consideration of (a) our assumption of all of the liabilities of Kipling, subject to certain consents, (b) certain anti-dilution rights as set forth in the Purchase Agreement and (c) all legal and other costs and expenses incurred by Kipling in consideration with this Purchase Agreement. Mr. Connolly serves as CEO of Turnaround and therefore (i) Turnaround obtained a third party appraisal of the Company which valued the acquired asset at Two Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($2,250,000) more than the liabilities assumed and (ii) Turnaround’s other (disinterested) Board member and CFO reviewed and approved this affiliate transaction. Mr. Connolly received no profit from this affiliated transaction. Mr. Connolly received no profit from this affiliated transaction. Because this transaction was between parties under common control, we recorded the $3,313,264 of consideration in excess of Mr. Connolly’s original cost basis as a deemed distribution to Mr. Connolly. The Purchase Agreement had been subject to the written consent of Highgate House Funds, Ltd. (“Highgate”) an affiliate of YA Global, which the Company and Highgate reduced to writing effective as of September 30, 2006. Kipling, at December 31, 2006, owned a thirty percent interest in a Hilton hotel, which commenced operations in February 2007, in West Palm Beach, Florida. Since the purchase was effective on September 30, 2006 the Company did not record any revenue or expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2006.

In a separate agreement with an individual, the Company issued an additional 2,000,000 shares and 3,000,000 warrants ($0.05 per warrant) in consideration of the individual’s surrender of his option, rights or other interests whatsoever to purchase any capital stock of Kipling Holdings, Inc. The Company has valued these 2,000,000 shares at $140,000. The Company used the closing price of $0.07 per share on September 30, 2006, the date of contract execution, as the value assigned to these shares. This expense is included as merger expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. The Company has valued the 3,000,000 warrants in the amount of $141,000 using the Black Sholes method and is amortized over the term of the agreement.

On December 5, 2007 (the “Closing Date”), the Company filed on Form 8-K Current Report, as amended on December 14, 2007 and February 20, 2008, disclosing that the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mr. Timothy J. Connolly, an individual, and Viewpoint Capital, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Investor”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor one (1) share of the Company’s Series E convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series E Preferred”), which such Series E Preferred is convertible into Three Hundred Million Shares (300,000,000) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) in exchange for the transfer by the Investor to the Company of Four Million (4,000,000) unrestricted, free-trading shares of common stock of Asset Capital Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ACGU Common Stock”) having a value of Three Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,400,000) based on the closing price of ACGU Common Stock as of the Closing Date as reported on the Pink Sheets, LLC. ACGU Common Stock trades under the symbol “ACGU.PK”. As a result of this transaction, the Investor acquired a 63.66% controlling interest in the Company’s Common Stock by virtue of the Investor’s ownership of the Series E Preferred.
 
11


On February 13, 2008, the Investor delivered to the Company a notice to convert the one (1) shares of Series E Preferred to Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares of Common Stock. On February 14, 2008, the Company issued to the Investor Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares of Common Stock, all of which are restricted, and canceled the One (1) share of Series E Preferred. As a result of this transaction, the Investor acquired a 63.66% controlling interest in the Common Stock of the Company.

During the month of March 2008, we sold our investment in stock of ACGU for approximately $7,700. Consequently, our investment in marketable securities as of December 2007 includes the net realizable value of these securities sold in March 2008.

Effective as of the Closing Date, Mr. Connolly resigned as Vice Chairman of the Board and as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, however Mr. Connolly shall continue to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Corporate Strategies, Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“CSI”) with the understanding that the business of CSI will be discontinued or spun off to its stockholders. In addition, Mr. Connolly shall continue to receive the same compensation as he has received through the Closing Date for his aforementioned continued services to CSI through December 31, 2008, which such date may be extended by mutual agreement by and among the parties to the Purchase Agreement.

Furthermore, Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) agreed on the Closing Date to relinquish certain non-dilutive rights in favor of Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) contained in Seven Hundred (700) shares of Series D convertible preferred stock held by Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) effective June 30, 2009 (instead of the previous date of December 31, 2010) in exchange for the Company conveying all rights to the names “Turnaround Partners, Inc.”, “Corporate Strategies, Inc.” and “Kipling Holdings, Inc.”, as well as all title to all furniture and equipment in the Houston office of the Company. The parties to the Purchase Agreement also agreed that the names of these companies shall be changed within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date.

As disclosed in the Form 8-K Current Report referred to above, the Company disclosed that effective as of December 27, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Registrant (the “Board”) accepted the resignation of (a) Wm. Chris Mathers from his position as Chief Financial Officer of the Registrant and (b) Fred Zeidman from his position as a member of the Board. Mr. Russell Kidder, the Registrant’s current President, Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board, shall serve as interim Chief Financial Officer, effective as of December 27, 2007.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Mr. Russell Kidder was appointed to serve as President, Chief Executive Officer and as a Director of the Company effective as of the Closing Date.
 
As filed on Form 8-K Current Report on January 3, 2008, the Company disclosed that effective as of December 31, 2007, Corporate Strategies, Inc. (“CSI”), a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Turnaround Partners, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Registrant”) entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Natural Nutrition, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“NN”) and CSI Business Finance, Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of NN (together with NN, the “Buyer”) pursuant to which CSI conveyed, transferred and assigned to the Buyer all of its title to and rights in CSI’s ten percent (10%) interest in the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Interactive Nutrition International, Inc., a company organized under the laws of Canada (“INII”) in exchange for the conveyance, transfer and assignment to CSI by the Buyer of certain Notes held by the Buyer (as such term is defined in the Agreement) plus a cash payment equal to One Hundred Ninety-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Ninety-Nine Dollars and Ten Cents ($198,899.10). In addition, NN assumed payment for all of CSI’s office lease, equipment payments and any other payments related to the office space at 109 N. Post Oak Lane, Suite 422, Houston, Texas 77024 for the remainder of the lease term and any renewals.

Results of continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2007 (the “2007 Period”) as compared with December 31, 2006 (the “2006 Period”). 

Revenues

Total revenue for the 2007 Period decreased by approximately $19,800 as compared to the 2006 Period.

Discount income was approximately $10,425 in the 2006 Period as compared with zero discount income for the 2007 Period. Management does not anticipate generating any significant new business in this area.
 
12

 
Consulting revenue increased by approximately $392,883 to $1,356,160 in the 2007 Period. Consulting revenues are generally one-time fees related to specific events, or contracts covering services to be rendered over a period of time. The Company enters into contracts to provide strategic consulting services, including general business development, mergers, acquisitions, management advisory, and restructuring services. There was one such contracts at December 31, 2007. The contract fee was prepaid in stock of the client company. The deferred revenue is being recognized through the period ending January 2008 at an amount of approximately $9,100 per month. In the past our contracts generally called for a base payment equal to approximately $6,000 - $12,000 per month, which may be payable in stock, with additional fees for consulting services beyond a preset amount. Some contracts include warrants or success fees. Because of the possible change in our fundamental business model, no new contracts have been procured at the time of this filing, and it is possible that no new contracts will be sought in the future.

We recorded overall losses in marketable securities in the 2007 Period of approximately $303,373 versus a loss of approximately $51,093 for the 2006 Period. The Company accepts both compensation for its services and invests in micro cap marketable securities. Most of these securities are in companies defined as penny stocks and are volatile, trading substantially up or down in any given quarter. Realized gains and (losses) for the 2007 and 2006 Periods were ($278,020) versus $107,716, respectively, and unrealized gains and (losses) for the 2007 and 2006 Periods of ($25,353) versus ($158,809), respectively.

Fee income represents brokerage fees of approximately $54,650 received or accrued in 2007 on loans we referred to a then affiliated company, CSI Business Finance Inc. Fees for the 2007 Period and the 2006 Period totaled $54,650 and $204,610, respectively. Management does not anticipate generating any significant new business in this area.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $216,000 to $2,045,663 for the 2007 Period as compared to $2,261,933 for the 2006 Period. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, general and administrative expenses were primarily comprised of salaries and benefits ($831,214), professional fees ($479,161) and bad debts in the amount of $524,414, primarily as a result of a mortgage note in the amount of $148,500 due to the Company from an individual who declared bankruptcy, a loan in the amount of $100,000 to a company in Vermont that is deemed uncollectible and a loan to another microcap company that is deemed uncollectible in the amount of $200,000. The remaining general and administrative expenses were comprised of business development, rent, advertising and other ordinary expenses necessary for our operations. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2006, general and administrative expenses were $2,261,933 and consisted primarily of salaries and benefits ($892,286), professional fees ($855,722) and bad debts in the amount of $243,302. The remaining general and administrative expenses were comprised of business development, rent, advertising and other ordinary expenses necessary for our operations. Our company shared office space and certain administrative functions and staff with an affiliated company to whom we allocate costs for these shared functions based on an estimate of time usage. We have not reached the size to benefit from separate office space and a full time staff. Beginning in 2008, the leased premises were assumed by the then affiliated company, Natural Nutrition, Inc.

Salaries and benefits decreased by approximately $61,000 to $831,214 in the 2007 Period as compared to the 2006 Period, primarily as a result of our acquisition specialist leaving our employment in May 2007.

Professional fees were approximately $479,161 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, a decrease of approximately $376,000 as compared to the 2006 Period. The decrease was primarily a result of acquisition due diligence fees incurred in the 2006 Period not similarly incurred in the 2007 Period. The remainder of the professional fees for the 2007 Period represents accounting, legal and consulting fees relating to regulatory requirements of being a public company.

We allocated overhead to a then affiliated company for items such as rent, payroll and other general operating expenses. For the 2007 Period we allocated approximately $244,000 versus $308,000 for the 2006 Period. There are no such allocations beginning in 2008.

Other income and expense

We recorded derivative income of $141,664 for the 2007 Period and $3,642,080 for the 2006 Period. These amounts represent the change in the fair value of the net derivative liability.

In connection with the acquisition of Kipling Holdings, Inc on September 30, 2006, we paid $140,000 under a services contract to an individual. This expense has been classified as a merger expense in the results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006.

Certain convertible debt was considered extinguished in the first quarter 2006 because of the sale of Lehigh. The extinguishment income was $130,563 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006.

During the first quarter of 2007, certain individuals converted their debentures into our common stock. As a result, we recorded a gain on debt extinguishment in the amount of $450,650 for the 2007 Period.
 
13

 
Interest expense increased by approximately $547,207 for the 2007 Period as compared to the 2006 Period. The increase is primarily a result of the amortization of discounts related to derivatives on our convertible debentures and interest expense incurred on our investment in Kipling.

For the 2007 Period, we recorded an operating loss and impairment on our investment in the West Palm Beach hotel within Kipling Holdings, Inc. in the amount of $685,136. Included in this amount is $540,000 for impairment of long-lived asset. During the fourth quarter of 2007 there was a proposed sale of the hotel that would have resulted in a loss to the Company of approximately $540,000. The sale of the hotel did not occur, but the asset was written down to estimated net realizable value nevertheless. The business segment affected is our “Hotel Investment” as found in Footnote 19 of the consolidated financial statements.

Discontinued Operations

During February 2006, the Company sold the shares of its wholly-owned subsidiary Lehigh. This resulted in a loss from discontinued operations for the 2006 in the amount of $4,688, net of applicable income tax.

Gain on sale of subsidiary of $3,042,406 represents the gain on the sale of Lehigh in February 2006.

During August 2005, Corporate Strategies distributed the shares of its business finance subsidiary (CSI Business Finance, Inc.) to its shareholders. On December 31, 2005, the Company sold its mortgage brokerage subsidiary for a convertible debenture. Based on a
review for collectibility at the transaction date, it was determined that collectibility was improbable and, accordingly no proceeds were recognized from the sale. Since the mortgage brokerage subsidiary had negative equity at the sale date, the Company recognized a profit to the extent of net liabilities assumed by the purchaser. In December 2006, we received $275,000 in full satisfaction of the convertible debenture which was recorded as a gain on sale of subsidiary at December 31, 2006.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Operating activities

We recorded a net loss for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007 in the amount of $2,604,975 versus net income in the amount of $4,936,074 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. Our net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006 was primarily a result of the gain on sale of Lehigh and our net change in fair value of derivative liability. Net cash used in operating activities was $1,598,439 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2007. We expensed $524,414 in bad debts primarily as a result of a mortgage note in the amount of $148,500 due to the Company from an individual who declared bankruptcy, a loan in the amount of $100,000 to a company in Vermont that was deemed uncollectible and a loan to another microcap company that is deemed uncollectible in the amount of $200,000. We recorded interest expense and net change in derivative liability in the amount of $692,908. In the fourth quarter of 2007 we recorded an operating loss and impairment in our investment in the West Palm Beach hotel (Kipling) in the amount of $685,136. We recorded income in the amount of $889,804 as a non-cash merger expense for the sale of our 10% interest in Natural Nutrition, Inc., a then affiliated company. Certain debentures were converted that resulted in a gain on debt modification in the amount of $450,250.

At December 31, 2007, the Company had a working capital deficit of approximately $2,174,851. Our working capital deficit includes a computed liability for the fair value of derivatives of $282,181, which will only be realized on the conversion of the derivatives, or settlement of the debentures. Our convertible debenture liability in the amount of $1,932,475 is classified as a current liability however it is our option to force conversion of these convertible debentures into the Company's common stock at any time.

Under our consulting agreements, we do not take positions in securities of our clients that at any one time would cause us to have an ownership interest in them of over 4.99%. Because of this restriction, we could be hindered in our ability to generate necessary cash for our operations.

Investing activities

We received preferential returns and distributions of capital from our investment in the West Palm Beach hotel in the amount of $481,250. We also received net proceeds from disposition of an investment in the amount of $198,899

As of December 31, 2007, $500,000 of our short-term investments was invested in auction rate securities, or ARSs. The $500,000 we have invested in ARSs at April 28, 2008 is collateralized by portfolios of AAA municipal obligations.  Through the date of this filing, auctions of these securities were not successful, resulting in our continuing to hold these securities and the issuers paying interest at the maximum contractual rate. Based on current market conditions, it is likely that auctions related to these securities will be unsuccessful in the near term. Unsuccessful auctions will result in our holding securities beyond their next scheduled auction reset dates and limiting the short-term liquidity of these investments. While these failures in the auction process have affected our ability to access these funds in the near term, we do not believe that the underlying securities or collateral have been affected. We believe that the higher reset rates on failed auctions provide sufficient incentive for the security issuers to address this lack of liquidity. If the credit rating of the security issuers deteriorates, we may be required to adjust the carrying value of these investments through an impairment charge. Excluding ARSs, at April 28, 2008, we had approximately $231,877 in cash and short-term investments. We believe the working capital available to us will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least the next 12 months, however if the ARS’ are not converted into cash within the next 12 months the Company could experience working capital difficulties.

Financing activities

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2007, we repaid approximately $84,233 on note payables.

We have 225 shares of Series C preferred stock outstanding. The stock has a liquidation preference of $337,380 and is redeemable at $1,500 per share at the Company’s option. Dividends are cumulative and accrue at the rate of $120 per share per year. Under the purchase agreement dated December 5, 2007, the series C preferred stock was to have been paid off by December 31, 2007 therefore, the full liquidation value of $337,380 is recorded as a current liability.

Our cash flows for the periods are summarized below:

Our cash decreased by $897,832 since December 31, 2006.

Management believes the Company has adequate working capital and cash to be provided from operating activities to fund current levels of operations. We anticipate that our company will grow. As our business grows we believe that we will have to raise additional capital in the private debt and/or public equity markets to fund our investments.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Until December 31, 2007, we leased our office space under an operating lease. Rental expense under operating leases for continuing operations aggregated $87,453 and $76,395 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Effective February 10, 2005, the Company entered into a new five year lease in a new building and moved the Company’s headquarters there. Beginning January 1, 2008, this leased has been assumed by our then affiliate company, Natural Nutrition, Inc.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, by establishing a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in the financial statements. In addition to recognition, FIN 48 provides guidance concerning measurement, derecognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006; accordingly, the Company adopted FIN 48 effective as of January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its effective tax rate.

In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.  SAB 108 provides guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. SAB 108 established a dual approach that requires quantification of errors under two methods: (1) roll-over method which quantifies the amount by which the current year income statement is misstated, and (2) the iron curtain method which quantifies the error as the cumulative amount by which the current year balance sheet is misstated. In some situations, companies will be required to record errors that occurred in prior years even though those errors were immaterial for each year in which they arose. Companies may choose to either restate all previously presented financial statements or record the cumulative effect of such errors as an adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the period in which SAB 108 is applied. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement clarifies how to measure fair value as permitted under other accounting pronouncements but does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 was originally effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. On February 12, 2008, the FASB issued Final FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP No. 157-2”). FSP No. 157-2, which was effective upon issuance, delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value at least once a year, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company expects to adopt FAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008 and 2009 for financial assets and financial liabilities and nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, respectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of FAS No. 157 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in our financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 159 on January 1, 2008. The Company has evaluated the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 and has determined that it will not elect the fair value option under SFAS No.159 for any financial instruments that are not required to be presented at fair value under generally accepted accounting principles.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements - an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Before this statement, limited guidance existed for reporting noncontrolling interests (minority interest). As a result, diversity in practice exists. In some cases minority interest is reported as a liability and in others it is reported in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity. Specifically, SFAS 160 requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financials statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2009. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141R provides companies with principles and requirements on how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree as well as the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also requires certain disclosures to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. Acquisition costs associated with the business combination will generally be expensed as incurred. SFAS 141R is effective for business combinations occurring in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption of SFAS No. 141R is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 141R will have on any future business combinations.

Critical Accounting Policies

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The derivatives issued from 2003 through 2006 have been accounted for in accordance with SFAS 133 and EITF No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock."

The Company has identified that these debentures have embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives have been bifurcated from their respective host debt contracts and accounted for as derivative liabilities in accordance with EITF 00-19. When multiple derivatives exist within the Convertible Notes, they have been bundled together as a single hybrid compound instrument in accordance with SFAS No. 133 Derivatives Implementation Group Implementation Issue No. B-15, "Embedded Derivatives: Separate Accounting for Multiple Derivative Features Embedded in a Single Hybrid Instrument".
 
16


The embedded derivatives within the Convertible Notes have been recorded at fair value at the date of issuance; and are marked-to-market each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded to the Company's income statement as "Net change in fair value of derivative liabilities". The Company has utilized a third party valuation firm to fair value the embedded derivatives using a layered discounted probability-weighted cash flow approach.

The fair value of the derivative liabilities are subject to the changes in the trading value of the Company's common stock, as well as other factors. As a result, the Company's financial statements may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter based on factors, such as the price of the Company's stock at the balance sheet date and the amount of shares converted by note holders. Consequently, our
financial position and results of operations may vary from quarter-to-quarter based on conditions other than our operating revenues and expenses.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company follows the guidance of the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104 for revenue recognition. The Company records revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, services have been rendered or product delivery has occurred, the sales price to the customer is fixed or determinable, and collectibility is reasonably assured.

ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Consolidated Financial Statements of Turnaround Partners, Inc. required by Item 310(a)of Regulation S-B are attached to this Annual Report. Reference is made to Item 13 below for an Index to such Consolidated Financial Statements.

ITEM 8. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

There have been no changes in accountants or disagreements on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures with the Company’s independent accountants during the two (2) fiscal years ended December 31, 2007.

ITEM 8A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
Because of its size, the Company shares its accounting staff with another company located in the same suite in Houston, Texas and the accounting staff is comprised of a controller and a data entry clerk. The controller and data entry clerk are considered contract employees whom also work for the other company within the office suite as contract employees. We currently do not have the resources to hire full-time accounting personnel and do not anticipate hiring any full-time accounting personnel in the near future.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer ("CEO").

In connection with the audit of our Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, our independent registered public accounting firm informed us that we had significant deficiencies constituting material weaknesses as defined by the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, which had been identified in connection with the audit of our Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006.

The material weaknesses identified by the auditor during the December 31, 2006 and 2007 audit were the lack of segregation of duties necessary to maintain proper checks and balances between functions and the lack of procedures to properly account for non-routine transactions including the write down of stock investment, impairment of an investment in a partnership and recording of the additional liability at the liquidation value for a series of preferred stock which was to be completely liquidated at December 31, 2007.

The absence of qualified full time accounting personnel was a contributing factor to the problems identified by the auditor. The specific circumstances giving rise to the weaknesses include utilizing the services of contract accountants on a part time basis in the absence of internal accounting personnel.

Further, based on the material weaknesses described herein, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at December 31, 2007.
 
The Company Has Material Weaknesses in Its Internal Control over Financial Reporting that May Prevent The Company from Being Able to Accurately Report Its Financial Results or Prevent Fraud, which Could Harm Its Business and Operating Results.
 
Effective internal controls are necessary for us to provide reliable and accurate financial reports and prevent fraud. In addition, Section 404 under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that the Company assess, and its independent registered public accounting firm attest to, the design and operating effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. If the Company cannot provide reliable and accurate financial reports and prevent fraud, its business and operating results could be harmed. The Company has in the past discovered, and may in the future discover, areas of its internal controls that need improvement. The Company has identified material weaknesses in its internal control as of December 31, 2007 as a result of an evaluation of those controls conducted in August 2008. These matters and the Company’s efforts regarding remediation of these matters, as well as efforts regarding internal controls generally are discussed in detail in Part II, Item 8A(T) Controls and Procedures, of this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.  However, as the Company’s material weaknesses in its internal controls demonstrate, the Company cannot be certain that the remedial measures it has taken to date will ensure that the Company designs, implements, and maintains adequate controls over its financial processes and reporting in the future.

Additionally, since the requirements of Section 404 are ongoing and apply for future years, the Company cannot be certain that it or its independent registered public accounting firm will not identify additional deficiencies or material weaknesses in its internal controls in the future, in addition to those identified as of December 31, 2007. Attempts to remedy the material weaknesses that have been identified and any additional deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses that the Company or its independent registered public accounting firm may identify in the future, could require the Company to incur significant costs, hire additional personnel, expend significant time and management resources or make other changes. Any delay or failure to design and implement new or improved controls, or difficulties encountered in their implementation or operation, could harm our operating results, cause the Company to fail to meet its financial reporting obligations, or prevent the Company from providing reliable and accurate financial reports or avoiding or detecting fraud. Disclosure of the Company’s material weaknesses, any failure to remediate such material weaknesses in a timely fashion or having or maintaining ineffective internal controls could cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, which could have a negative effect on the trading price of the Company’s stock and its access to capital.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control structure and procedures over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Exchange Act. Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on the framework set forth in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 
A material weakness in internal control over financial reporting is defined by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board’s Audit Standard No. 2 as being a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements would not be prevented or detected. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Company’s ability to initiate, authorize, record, process or report external financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected.
  
Management identified the following material weaknesses as of December 31, 2007 to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting:

 
1.
Deficiencies in the Company’s Control Environment. The Company’s control environment did not sufficiently promote effective internal control over financial reporting throughout the organization. This material weakness exists because of the aggregate effect of multiple deficiencies in internal control which affect the Company's control environment, including: (a) the lack of an audit committee, (b) the lack of independent financial expertise on the Board of Directors, and (c) the absence of a whistleblower hotline. The Company has no current plans, however, to establish an audit committee or to enter into a contract with an independent whistleblower hotline service provider, and accordingly, expects to continue to lack an audit committee, financial expertise on the Board of Directors, and a whistleblower hotline.

 
2.
Deficiencies in the Company’s Accounting System Controls. The Company failed to perform certain control procedures designed to ensure that the financial statement presentations and related disclosures were complete and in accordance with GAAP. These deficiencies include: (a) inadequate review of journal entries and wire transfers, (b) the lack of independent review of balance sheet account reconciliations and supporting calculations, (c) inadequate communication between management and the accounting department.

Based on the material weaknesses described above and the criteria set forth by the COSO Framework, our Principal Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial and Accounting Officer (one individual) has concluded that the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting at a reasonable assurance level as of December 31, 2007 or at the date of this filing as a result of an evaluation of those controls conducted in August 2008.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit the company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
 
Remediation

During fiscal 2008, we plan to implement remediation measures (to the extent that financial resources are available) to address the material weaknesses described in item number 2 above. These process changes will improve our internal controls environment and increase the likelihood of our identifying non-routine and non-systematic transactions.  The Company's remediation plans include implementing procedures for the adequate review and approval of wire transfers. These plans, while improving our internal control environment, will not eliminate all of the material weaknesses described above due to our limited accounting staff comprised of one professional and one part-time contract payroll and accounts payable clerk.

Management recognizes that these enhancements require continual monitoring and evaluation for effectiveness. The development of these actions is an iterative process and will evolve as the Company continues to evaluate and improve our internal controls over financial reporting.
 
18


Management will review progress on these activities on a consistent and ongoing basis at the Chief Executive Officer and senior management level. We also plan to take additional steps to elevate Company awareness about and communication of these important issues through improved communication.
 
The continued remediation of the material weaknesses described above is a priority. Our Board of Directors will continually assess the progress and sufficiency of these initiatives and make adjustments as and when necessary. As of the date of this report, our management believes that our efforts, when completed, will mitigate, but not eliminate the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting as described above. Our management and the Board of Directors do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors or all instances of fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control gaps and instances of fraud have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple errors or mistakes. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and any design may not succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Subsequent Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

      Except as disclosed above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Applicable percentages of ownership are based on 471,236,054 shares of Common Stock on February 14, 2008 for each stockholder. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance within the rules of the SEC and generally includes voting of investment power with respect to the securities. Shares subject to securities exercisable or convertible into shares of Common Stock that are currently exercisable or exercisable within sixty (60) days of February 14, 2008 are deemed to be beneficially owned by the person holding such derivative securities for the purpose of computing the percentage of ownership of such persons, but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

These shares represent the approximate number of shares underlying convertible debentures at an assumed price of $0.001 in light of the fact that the Company is prohibited from issuing shares of Common Stock at a price per share below par. Because the conversion price will fluctuate based on the market price of the Company’s stock, the actual number of shares to be issued upon conversion of the debentures may be lower but cannot be higher.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Shareholders
Turnaround Partners, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Houston, Texas

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Turnaround Partners, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in shareholders' deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of Turnaround Partners, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

TURNAROUND PARTNERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2007 and 2006

NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF MERGER, NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND CONSOLIDATION

On August 31, 2005, NuWave entered into a merger agreement (the "Agreement") with Corporate Strategies, Inc. ("Corporate Strategies") and the shareholders of Corporate Strategies ("Shareholders"). The Company was subsequently renamed Turnaround Partners, Inc. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse acquisition since control of the merged group passed to the shareholders of the acquired company (Corporate Strategies).

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company issued one (1) share of its common stock ("Common Stock"), par value $0.001 per share, to each holder of Corporate Strategies Class A common stock in exchange for two (2) shares of Corporate Strategies Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Second, the Company issued one (1) share of the Company's Series C preferred stock ("Series C Preferred"), par value $0.01 per share, to each holder of Corporate Strategies Series A preferred stock for one (1) share of Corporate Strategies Series A preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.

The Company issued and delivered shares of its Series B convertible Preferred stock ("Series B Preferred") to each holder of Corporate Strategies Class B common stock so that effectively upon conversion of the Series B Preferred into common shares, the common shares issued upon conversion shall be equal to ninety-five percent (95%) of the issued and outstanding stock of the Company (calculated on a fully diluted basis as of the date of the Merger, following the issuance of all the Merger Consideration (as such term is defined in the Agreement) and after giving effect to such conversion, but not including any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any then outstanding Company convertible debentures ). Therefore, the Merger Consideration for the Common Stock, Series C Preferred and Series B Preferred was the Corporate Strategies Class A common, Series A preferred and Class B common, respectively. The number of shares issued to the Shareholders in connection with the Merger was based upon a determination by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board").

The terms of the Series B Preferred were subsequently modified. In connection with the Kipling purchase, 93,334 shares of Series B Preferred were exchanged for a like number of Series D Preferred, which were subsequently reduced to 700 shares of Series D Preferred. The remaining 6,666 shares of Series B Preferred are convertible into 4,195,445 shares of common stock. Each share of the Series D may be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time and from time to time after December 31, 2006 through June 30, 2009, into that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such date of conversion, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D and (b) One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock held by the Holders which has not been converted on or before June 30, 2009 into shares of Common Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder of such share, at any time and from time to time after December 31, 2010 into one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on June 30, 2009, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D Preferred Stock. The shares of Common Stock received upon conversion shall be fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Due to the change in control of the Company, Mr. Connolly and his spouse may not convert debentures that would result in ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company at the time of conversion.

The Series B and D Convertible Preferred Stockholders and the holders of the common stock vote together and the Preferred Stock shall be counted on an "as converted" basis, thereby giving the Preferred Shareholders control of the Company.

On May 31, 2006, we filed an S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the Emerge Capital Corp. 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The document was submitted to register 10,000,000 shares of common stock. The purpose of the Plan is to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company by (a) providing key people with incentives to improve shareholder value and to contribute to the growth and financial success of the Company, and (b) enabling the Company to attract, retain and reward the best-available persons. This document is herein incorporated by reference. As of December 31, 2007 there were 7,250,000 shares available under the Plan.

On September 30, 2006, we completed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with Kipling Holdings, Inc. (“Kipling”) and Timothy J. Connolly, to acquire 100% of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Kipling Holdings, Inc. (“Kipling”), a Delaware corporation.

On December 5, 2007 (the “Closing Date”), the Company filed on Form 8-K Current Report, as amended on December 14, 2007 and February 20, 2008, disclosing that the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Mr. Timothy J. Connolly, an individual and Viewpoint Capital, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company (the “Investor”) pursuant to which the Company issued to the Investor one (1) share of the Company’s Series E convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series E Preferred”), which such Series E Preferred is convertible into Three Hundred Million Shares (300,000,000) of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) in exchange for the transfer by the Investor to the Company of Four Million (4,000,000) unrestricted, free-trading shares of common stock of Asset Capital Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“ACGU Common Stock”) having a value of Three Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,400,000) based on the closing price of ACGU Common Stock as of the Closing Date as reported on the Pink Sheets, LLC. ACGU Common Stock trades under the symbol “ACGU.PK”. As a result of this transaction, the Investor acquired a 63.66% controlling interest in the Company’s Common Stock by virtue of the Investor’s ownership of the Series E Preferred.

On February 13, 2008, the Investor delivered to the Company a notice to convert the one (1) shares of Series E Preferred to Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares of Common Stock. On February 14, 2008, the Company issued to the Investor Three Hundred Million (300,000,000) shares of Common Stock, all of which are restricted, and canceled the One (1) share of Series E Preferred. As a result of this transaction, the Investor acquired a 63.66% controlling interest in the Common Stock of the Company.

During the month of March 2008, we sold our investment in stock of ACGU for approximately $7,700. Consequently, our investment in marketable securities as of December 2007 includes the net realizable value of these securities sold in March 2008.

Effective as of the Closing Date, Mr. Connolly resigned as Vice Chairman of the Board and as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, however Mr. Connolly shall continue to serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of Corporate Strategies, Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“CSI”) with the understanding that the business of CSI will be discontinued or spun off to its stockholders. In addition, Mr. Connolly shall continue to receive the same compensation as he has received through the Closing Date for his aforementioned continued services to CSI through December 31, 2008, which such date may be extended by mutual agreement by and among the parties to the Purchase Agreement.

Furthermore, Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) agreed on the Closing Date to relinquish certain non-dilutive rights in favor of Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) contained in Seven Hundred (700) shares of Series D convertible preferred stock held by Mr. Connolly (and his spouse) effective June 30, 2009 (instead of the previous date of December 31, 2010) in exchange for the Company conveying all rights to the names “Turnaround Partners, Inc.”, “Corporate Strategies, Inc.” and “Kipling Holdings, Inc.”, as well as all title to all furniture and equipment in the Houston office of the Company. The parties to the Purchase Agreement also agreed that the names of these companies shall be changed within sixty (60) days following the Closing Date.

As disclosed in the Form 8-K Current Report referred to above, the Company disclosed that effective as of December 27, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Registrant (the “Board”) accepted the resignation of (a) Wm. Chris Mathers from his position as Chief Financial Officer of the Registrant and (b) Fred Zeidman from his position as a member of the Board. Mr. Russell Kidder, the Registrant’s current President, Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board, shall serve as interim Chief Financial Officer, effective as of December 27, 2007.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, Mr. Russell Kidder was appointed to serve as President, Chief Executive Officer and as a Director of the Company effective as of the Closing Date.
 
As filed on Form 8-K Current Report on January 3, 2008, the Company disclosed that effective as of December 31, 2007, Corporate Strategies, Inc. (“CSI”), a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Turnaround Partners, Inc., a Nevada corporation entered into a Purchase Agreement with Natural Nutrition, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“NN”) and CSI Business Finance, Inc., a Texas corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of NN (together with NN, the “Buyer”) pursuant to which CSI conveyed, transferred and assigned to the Buyer all of its title to and rights in CSI’s ten percent (10%) interest in the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Interactive Nutrition International, Inc. (“INII”), a company organized under the laws of Canada in exchange for the conveyance, transfer and assignment to CSI by the Buyer of certain Notes held by the Buyer (as such term is defined in the Agreement) plus a cash payment equal to One Hundred Ninety-Eight Thousand Eight Hundred Ninety-Nine Dollars and Ten Cents ($198,899.10). In addition, NN assumed payment for all of CSI’s office lease, equipment payments and any other payments related to the office space in Houston, Texas for the remainder of the lease term and any renewals.

NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND ORGANIZATION

The discussion below regarding the nature of operations and organization assumes the Company will continue with the current business plan, however in light of the Company’s change in control of ownership, the Company is contemplating a new business model. Currently, the Company believes the new business plan going forward is to focus on alternative and clean technologies.

F-10

 
The Company is an established provider of restructuring strategies, turnaround execution and business development services for emerging and re-emerging public companies. The Company markets its services to public companies, hedge funds, institutional investors and banks that have significant exposure in troubled micro-cap public companies. These companies are typically either in operational or financial difficulty and may be in default of lending or equity agreements, and as a result, they may be facing bankruptcy or liquidation if their operations are not turned around. Under our consulting agreements, we do not take positions in securities of our clients that at any one time would cause us to have an ownership interest in them of over 4.99%.

The Company is generally compensated with a combination of cash payments on a monthly or quarterly basis, and outright grants of equity in the form of common stock and/or warrants for purchasing common stock. We believe this compensation plan aligns our interests with the client company's shareholders because our ultimate compensation is maximized by successfully increasing shareholder value. This performance based compensation arrangement clearly demonstrates that our interests are consistent with both our clients and their shareholders.

The Company minimizes risk from our restructuring/turnaround clients by implementing the following policies:

·  
The Company will not assume the financial obligations of the client company in any circumstance. In most cases, the financial institution with the greatest risk has referred the Company to the transaction.

·  
The Company requires the client or their investor to provide the client company with working capital necessary to execute the turnaround plan.

·  
The Company requires the client to fully indemnify the Company against any actions, with the exception of gross negligence or malfeasance.

·  
If the client has officer and director insurance, we require the client to add the Company or any of the Company's contractors as insured parties under the policy.

·  
Should the Company consider altering any of the policies above, it will require a vote of our Board of Directors to waive them and agree to the maximum amount of risk that the Company will assume.

The Company also actively trades securities and options with available cash. Many of these transactions contain a considerable amount of risk.

Lehigh Acquisition Corp. ("Lehigh") was a subsidiary of NuWave and is treated as if it was acquired August 31, 2005, the date of the merger. Lehigh was sold on February 3, 2006. These financial statements include the operations of Lehigh through February 3, 2006 as discontinued operations.

CONSOLIDATION AND PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

NOTE 2 -SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company's revenue recognition policies are in compliance with Staff Accounting Bulletin 104. Revenue is recognized at the date a formal arrangement exists, the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is complete, no other significant obligation of the Company exists and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Revenues from sales of real estate are recorded when title is conveyed to the buyer, adequate cash payment has been received and there is no continued involvement. One of our subsidiaries holding real estate was sold in February 2006.

Commission income from the brokering of loans is recognized when all of the services required to be performed for such revenues have been completed. Incremental direct costs include credit reports appraisal fees, document preparation fees, wire fees, filing fees, and commissions, and are included in operating expenses, net of reimbursements.

Discount income from purchased receivables represents a percentage of the purchased invoice. The discount percentage earned is determined by the number of days the invoice is outstanding. Management does not anticipate generating any significant new business in this area.

F-11

 
Consulting revenue is recognized as services are performed.

Marketable securities gains (losses) is both trading gains or losses and the change in market value of the trading securities owned by the Company, including related puts and calls. The Company accounts for marketable securities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities."

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

For purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Company considers all short-term securities purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

COLLECTIBILITY OF ACCOUNTS AND NOTES RECEIVABLE

The accounts and notes receivable are reviewed monthly for aging and quarterly credit evaluation of the customer's financial condition to determine collectibility. Write-offs or an increase in the allowance for doubtful accounts are made based on this evaluation. The allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $482,686 for the year ended December 31, 2007.

FIXED ASSETS

Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives of three to five years. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the useful life of the improvement or the term of the lease.

When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is recognized in operations for the period. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to expense as incurred; significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.

The Company did not have any fixed assets as of December 31, 2007. As part of the December 2007 transaction with ACGU, title to all furniture and equipment in the Houston office of the Company was conveyed to the ex-Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors and ex-CEO, Tim Connolly.

LAND HELD FOR DEVELOPMENT AND SALE

Land held for development and sale is stated at the seller's historical cost basis, plus the costs of improvements. The subsidiary holding the land was sold in February 2006.

IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company periodically assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, and the investment in the real estate partnership, when there are indications of potential impairment, based on estimates of undiscounted future cash flows. The amount of impairment is calculated by comparing anticipated discounted future cash flows with the carrying value of the related asset. In performing this analysis, management considers such factors as current results, trends, and future prospects, in addition to other economic factors.

For the 2007 Period, we recorded an operating loss and impairment on our investment in the West Palm Beach hotel within Kipling Holdings, Inc. in the amount of $685,136. Included in this amount is $540,000 for impairment of long-lived asset. During the fourth quarter of 2007 there was a proposed sale of the hotel that would have resulted in a loss to the Company of approximately $540.000. The sale of the hotel did not occur, but the asset was written down to estimated net realizable value nevertheless. The business segment affected is our “Hotel Investment” as found in Footnote 20 of the consolidated financial statements.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Derivatives are accounted for in accordance with SFAS 133 and EITF No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock.

F-12

 
FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURE AT DECEMBER 31, 2007

The carrying value of cash, notes and accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and notes payable are reasonable estimates of their fair value because of short-term maturity.

INCOME TAXES

The Company accounts for income taxes under SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires an asset and liability approach to financial accounting and reporting for income taxes. The difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities is determined annually. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed for those differences that have future tax consequences using the currently enacted tax laws and rates that apply to the periods in which they are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, if necessary, to reduce the deferred tax asset to the amount that will assure full realization. Income tax expense is the current tax payable or refundable for the period plus or minus the net change in the deferred tax assets and liabilities.

ADVERTISING

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense on continuing operations was $69,455 and $120,155 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Basic income (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted per share amounts assume the conversion, exercise, or issuance of all potential common stock instruments unless the effect is anti-dilutive, thereby reducing the loss or increasing the income per share.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 clarifies the application of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, by establishing a threshold condition that a tax position must meet for any part of the benefit of that position to be recognized in the financial statements. In addition to recognition, FIN 48 provides guidance concerning measurement, derecognition, classification and disclosure of tax positions. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006; accordingly, the Company adopted FIN 48 effective as of January 1, 2007. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on its effective tax rate.
 
In September 2006, the SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements.  SAB 108 provides guidance on how the effects of the carryover or reversal of prior year misstatements should be considered in quantifying a current year misstatement. SAB 108 established a dual approach that requires quantification of errors under two methods: (1) roll-over method which quantifies the amount by which the current year income statement is misstated, and (2) the iron curtain method which quantifies the error as the cumulative amount by which the current year balance sheet is misstated. In some situations, companies will be required to record errors that occurred in prior years even though those errors were immaterial for each year in which they arose. Companies may choose to either restate all previously presented financial statements or record the cumulative effect of such errors as an adjustment to retained earnings at the beginning of the period in which SAB 108 is applied. SAB 108 is effective for fiscal years ending after November 15, 2006. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have an impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No. 157”). This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement clarifies how to measure fair value as permitted under other accounting pronouncements but does not require any new fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 was originally effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. On February 12, 2008, the FASB issued Final FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. Financial Accounting Standard (“FAS”) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157 (“FSP No. 157-2”). FSP No. 157-2, which was effective upon issuance, delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value at least once a year, to fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company expects to adopt FAS No. 157 on January 1, 2008 and 2009 for financial assets and financial liabilities and nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, respectively. The Company does not believe that the adoption of FAS No. 157 will have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In July 2006, the FASB issued FIN 48, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. This Interpretation requires that the Company recognize in our financial statements, the impact of a tax position, if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The provisions of FIN 48 are effective as of the beginning of our 2007 fiscal year, with the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2007.
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007. The Company expects to adopt SFAS No. 159 on January 1, 2008. The Company has evaluated the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 and has determined that it will not elect the fair value option under SFAS No.159 for any financial instruments that are not required to be presented at fair value under generally accepted accounting principles.

In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Before this statement, limited guidance existed for reporting noncontrolling interests (minority interest). As a result, diversity in practice exists. In some cases minority interest is reported as a liability and in others it is reported in the mezzanine section between liabilities and equity. Specifically, SFAS 160 requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financials statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS 160 clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS 160 also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interests. SFAS 160 is effective for the Company on January 1, 2009. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of the adoption of SFAS 160 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

F-14

 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141R provides companies with principles and requirements on how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree as well as the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in a business combination. SFAS No. 141R also requires certain disclosures to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. Acquisition costs associated with the business combination will generally be expensed as incurred. SFAS 141R is effective for business combinations occurring in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption of SFAS No. 141R is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 141R will have on any future business combinations.

NOTE 3  INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

In accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (“SFAS 128”), "Earnings per Share", basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the periods.  Diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average shares of common stock plus the assumed issuance of common stock for all potentially dilutive securities.

NOTE 4 - CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND MAJOR CUSTOMERS

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash, accounts and notes receivable and marketable securities. The Company maintains its cash accounts in high quality FDIC insured banks in Texas and in money market brokerage accounts. The Company's accounts receivables consist of receivables for consulting from companies located in the United States. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers' financial conditions to ensure collections and minimize losses. The Company reduces its credit risk relating to marketable securities through diversification of marketable securities held. See Note 7 - Investment in Marketable Securities for risks associated with a short-term investment in auction rate securities.

For the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had sales as a percent of annual revenues from continuing operations from the following customers:

NOTE 5 - CONCENTRATION OF TRANSACTIONS WITH YA GLOBAL INVESTMENTS, LP (“YA Global”) (fka Cornell Capital Partners, LP).

At December 31, 2007, $7,826,100 of the convertible debentures are owed to YA Global and Highgate House Funds, Ltd., an affiliate of YA Global.

YA Global is the principal lender to the Company.

In February 2006, the Company sold its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lehigh, to YA Global for total proceeds of $5,948,407 including the assumption of $4,881,274 promissory notes, $400,000 of convertible debentures, $573,737 of accrued expense and interest and cash of $93,396. The transaction resulted in a gain of $3,042,406.

NOTE 6 - FIXED ASSETS

The Company did not have any fixed assets as of December 31, 2007. As part of the December 2007 transaction with ACGU, title to all furniture and equipment in the Houston office of the Company was conveyed to the ex-Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors and CEO, Tim Connolly.

Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 was $24,041 and $23,874, respectively.

NOTE 7 - INVESTMENT IN MARKETABLE SECURITIES

Investments in marketable securities primarily include shares of common stock in various companies. The investments are considered trading securities, and accordingly any changes in market value are reflected in the consolidated statement of operations. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had unrealized losses of $25,353 and $158,809, respectively, related to marketable securities held on those dates. These unrealized gains and losses are included in the consolidated statements of operations for the respective years.

Investments include shares of common stock in companies which do not have a readily determinable fair market value and are accounted for using the cost method. Once a quarter, the financial statements, operations and any other information needed to evaluate these investments are reviewed to determine if an impairment needs to be recorded. At December 31, 2007, the Company had $29,852 of investment in preferred stock carried at cost.

As of December 31, 2007, $500,000 of our short-term investments was invested in auction rate securities, or ARSs. The $500,000 we have invested in ARSs at April 28, 2008 is collateralized by portfolios of AAA municipal obligations.  Through the date of this filing, auctions of these securities were not successful, resulting in our continuing to hold these securities and the issuers paying interest at the maximum contractual rate. Based on current market conditions, it is likely that auctions related to these securities will be unsuccessful in the near term. Unsuccessful auctions will result in our holding securities beyond their next scheduled auction reset dates and limiting the short-term liquidity of these investments. While these failures in the auction process have affected our ability to access these funds in the near term, we do not believe that the underlying securities or collateral have been affected. We believe that the higher reset rates on failed auctions provide sufficient incentive for the security issuers to address this lack of liquidity. If the credit rating of the security issuers deteriorates, we may be required to adjust the carrying value of these investments through an impairment charge.

NOTE 8 – ACQUISITION OF KIPLING HOLDINGS, INC.

On September 30, 2006, we completed a stock purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) to acquire 100% of the total issued and outstanding capital stock of Kipling Holdings, Inc. (“Kipling”), a Delaware corporation from Timothy J. Connolly in consideration of (a) our assumption of all of the liabilities of Kipling, subject to certain consents, (b) certain anti-dilution rights as set forth in the Agreement and (c) all legal and other costs and expenses incurred by Kipling in consideration with this Agreement. Mr. Connolly serves as CEO of Turnaround and therefore (i) Turnaround obtained a third party appraisal of the Company which valued the required asset at Two Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($2,250,000) more than the liabilities assumed and (ii) Turnaround’s other (disinterested) Board member and CFO reviewed and approved this affiliate transaction. Mr. Connolly received no profit from this affiliated transaction. Because this transaction was between parties under common control, we recorded the $3,313,264 of consideration in excess of Mr. Connolly’s original cost basis as a deemed distribution to Mr. Connolly. The Agreement had been subject to the written consent of Highgate House Funds, Ltd. (“Highgate”), which the Company and Highgate reduced to writing effective as of September 30, 2006. Kipling primarily provides capital for investments in the hospitality industry. Kipling, at December 31, 2007, owned a thirty percent interest in a Hilton hotel under construction in West Palm Beach, Florida. Since the purchase was effective on September 30, 2006 the Company did not record any revenue or expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2006. The loss for the period, October 1 through December 31, 2006, and for the entire year ended December 31, 2007 had been included in the statement of operations.

In a separate agreement with an individual, the Company issued an additional 2,000,000 shares and 3,000,000 warrants ($0.05 per warrant) in consideration of the individual’s surrender of his option, rights or other interests whatsoever to purchase any capital stock of Kipling Holdings, Inc. The Company has valued these 2,000,000 shares at $140,000. The Company used the closing price of $0.07 per share on September 30, 2006, the date of contract execution, as the value assigned to these shares. This expense is included as merger expense for the twelve months ended December 31, 2006. The Company has valued the 3,000,000 warrants in the amount of $141,000 using the Black Sholes method and is amortized over the term of the agreement.

Assets and liabilities acquired in the acquisition

The Company has a thirty percent limited partnership interest in Worthington Hospitality, L.L.L.P. (Worthington) totaling $3,720,007. The initial investment of $4,500,000 was funded on December 7, 2005. The partnership currently has a Hilton hotel, which became operational in February 2007, in West Palm Beach, Florida. The partnership agreement provides for a preferential return of seven percent per annum on the capital contributions funded by the investors until such time as the hotel/partnership secures a temporary or permanent certificate of occupancy, at which time the preferential return shall cease to accrue. As of December 31, 2007, the $4,500,000 Investment in Worthington has been reduced by $481,250 for the preferential return and distributions of capital, cumulative partnership income and loses and a $540,000 impairment through December 31, 2007. The Company receives thirty percent of any monetary amounts paid out by the partnership and will be allocated thirty percent of all operating profits, non-operating profits and losses of the partnership. This investment is accounted for using the equity method.

Worthington started its operations September 14, 2005. At December 31, 2007 Worthington had a book value of $2,648,223 consisting of cash, land, building, furniture and fixtures, equipment and other assets of $12,199,936 and accounts payable and debt of $9,551,713. The difference between the book value of the investment and the underlying equity in the net assets per the partnership at the date of completion of the hotel in the amount of $2,694,557 is being depreciated over 25 years which is the same as the depreciable life of the building.

The general partner has exclusive responsibility for management of the partnership including the power to sell the hotel and land. Limited partners have no right or authority to conduct partnership business. The partnership agreement provides that, without the unanimous consent of the limited partners, the general partner cannot transfer less than 100% of the partnership interests. If the general partner decides to transfer 100% of the partnership interest in an “arm’s-length” transaction, he may require all of the partners to transfer all of their respective interest. Limited partners are not responsible for the expenses, liabilities or obligations of the partnership except as expressly assumed or guaranteed.

NOTE 10 -CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES - DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Convertible Debentures issued from 2003 through 2007 have been accounted for in accordance with SFAS 133 and EITF No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock."

F-19


The Company has identified the following instruments have derivatives requiring evaluation and accounting under the relevant guidance applicable to financial derivatives:

YA Global Debenture issued 5/6/04 in the face amount of $400,000
YA Global Debenture issued 6/24/04 in the face amount of $500,000
YA Global Debenture issued 9/28/04 in the face amount of $400,000
YA Global Debenture issued 4/6/05 in the faceamount of $400,000
Holland et. al. Debentures issued 12/22/03 in the face amount of$250,000
Saporito Debenture issued 1/29/04 in the face amount of $100,000
ViolaDebenture issued 10/12/04 in the face amount of $100,000
Highgate House issued 12/02/05 in the face amount of $6,225,000

The Company has identified the above debentures have embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives have been bifurcated from their respective host debt contracts and accounted for as derivative liabilities in accordance with EITF 00-19. When multiple derivatives exist within the Convertible Notes, they have been bundled together as a single hybrid compound instrument in accordance with SFAS No. 133 Derivatives Implementation Group Implementation Issue No. B-15, "Embedded Derivatives: Separate Accounting for Multiple Derivative Features Embedded in a Single Hybrid Instrument."

The embedded derivatives within the Convertible Notes have been recorded at fair value at the date of issuance; and are marked-to-market each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded to the Company's income statement as "Net change in fair value of derivative liabilities." The Company has utilized a third party valuation firm to fair value the embedded derivatives using a layered discounted probability-weighted cash flow approach.

The fair value of the derivative liabilities are subject to the changes in the trading value of the Company's common stock, as well as other factors. As a result, the Company's financial statements may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter based on factors, such as the price of the Company's stock at the balance sheet date and the amount of shares converted by note holders. Consequently, our financial position and results of operations may vary from quarter-to-quarter based on conditions other than our operating revenues and expenses.

HIGHGATE HOUSE 12/02/05 CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE

The Company is the issuer of a $6,225,000 Secured Convertible Debenture (“the Debenture”) payable to Highgate House Funds, Ltd (“Holder”), dated December 2, 2005. The Debenture bears interest at the rate of 7%, which is accrued until maturity. The Debenture is due and payable in full, including accrued interest from inception, on December 1, 2010.

The Debenture is convertible, at the option of the Holder, into common stock of the Company at a price per share equal to the lower of (i) $.50 (the “Fixed Price”) or (ii) eighty percent (80%) of the lowest closing bid price for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion or, if a special event of default occurs, at a price per share equal to eighty percent (80%) of the lowest closing bid price for the thirty (30) trading days immediately preceding the date of conversion.

The Company is obligated to register the resale of the conversion shares under the Securities and Exchange Act, pursuant to the terms of the Investor Registration Rights Agreement dated December 2, 2005. The Registration Rights Agreement called for the Company to register the underlying securities no later than 180 after the execution of the Debenture agreement (this requirement has been extended to June 30, 2007) and use its best efforts to have the Initial Registration statement declared effective by the SEC no later than ninety days after the date filed.

DERIVATIVE VALUATIONS

The fair value model utilized to value the various embedded derivatives in the convertible notes, comprises multiple probability-weighted scenarios under various assumptions reflecting the economics of the Convertible Debentures, such as the risk-free interest rate, expected Company stock price and volatility, likelihood of conversion and or redemption, and likelihood default status and timely registration. At inception, the fair value of this single compound embedded derivative was bifurcated from the host debt contract and recorded as a derivative liability which resulted in a reduction of the initial notional carrying amount of the Convertible Debentures (as unamortized discount which will be amortized over the term of the note under the effective interest method).

NOTE 12 - DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The current authorized capital stock of the Company consists of Five Billion (5,000,000,000) shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, Four Hundred Thousand (400,000) shares of Series A convertible preferred, par value $.01 per share, One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares each of convertible Series B and D Preferred, par value $0.01 per share, One Thousand (1,000) non-voting shares of Series C Preferred, par value $0.01 per share and one (1) share of Series E Preferred, par value $0.001. As of December 31, 2007, 135,236,054 shares of Common Stock, Six thousand six hundred and sixty-six (6,666) shares of Series B Preferred, two hundred twenty-five (225) shares of Series C Preferred, seven hundred (700) shares of Series D Preferred stock, and one (1) share of Series E preferred were issued and outstanding. The following description is a summary of the capital stock and contains the material terms of voting capital stock.

Each share of Common Stock entitles the holder to one (1) vote on each matter submitted to a vote of our shareholders, including the election of Directors. There is no cumulative voting. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, Shareholders are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors. Shareholders have no preemptive, conversion or other subscription rights.

The Company is authorized to issue two million (200,000,000) shares of preferred stock. The holder of the Company's Series B Preferred is entitled to convert into 4,195,445 shares of common stock and is entitled to cast votes equal to these shares on all matters submitted to the shareholders. The series C preferred shares have no voting rights, except as required under Nevada general corporation law. We have 225 shares of Series C preferred stock outstanding. The stock has a liquidation preference of $337,380 and is redeemable at $1,500 per share at the Company’s option. Dividends are cumulative and accrue at the rate of $120 per share per year. Under the purchase agreement dated December 5, 2007, the series C preferred stock was to have been paid off by December 31, 2007. Therefore, the full liquidation value of $337,380 is recorded as a current liability.

Pursuant to the purchase of our interest in Kipling Holdings, Inc. (“Kipling”) as fully described in Item 6, and effective September 25, 2006, the Board of Directors approved the designation of Series D convertible preferred stock (the “Series D”), par value of $0.01, to consist of up to One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares. As a result of the Kipling purchase, on December 31, 2006, the Board of Directors reduced the 93,334 shares of then outstanding Series D owned by our CEO, Timothy J. Connolly, and his spouse to Seven Hundred (700) shares of Series D. The Series D ranks pari passu with the common stock of the Company on an “as converted” basis, and senior to the Company’s Series A, B and C preferred stock. The holders of the Series D are entitled to receive dividends or distributions on a pro rata basis when and if dividends are declared on our Common Stock, but with no liquidation preference. Each share of the Series D may be convertible, at the option of the holder, at any time and from time to time after December 31, 2006 through June 30, 2009, into that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the greater of (a) one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding such date of conversion, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D and (b) One Hundred Thousand (100,000) shares of Common Stock. Each share of Series D Preferred Stock held by the Holders which has not been converted on or before June 30, 2009 into shares of Common Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the Holder of such share, at any time and from time to time after June 30, 2009 into one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on June 30, 2009, calculated on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to the conversion of such share(s) of Series D Preferred Stock. The shares of Common Stock received upon conversion shall be fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock. Due to the change in control of the Company, Mr. Connolly and his spouse may not convert debentures that would result in ownership of more than 4.99% of the Company at the time of conversion.
