FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Report on Form 10-K contains statements that constitute   "forward-looking statements"statements” as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act 1995, as amended.  Those statements  appear in a number of places in this Report and include,  without limitation,  statements  regarding the intent,  belief and  current  expectations of the Company, its directors or its officers with respect to the  Company's  policies  regarding  investments,  dispositions,  financings, conflicts of interest and other  matters;  and trends  affecting  the  Company's financial condition or results of operations. Any such forward-looking statement is not a guarantee of future performance and involves several risks and uncertainties, and actual results may differ  materially  from those in the  forward-looking statement as a result of various factors – some factors being beyond the Company’s control. The accompanying information contained in this Report, including the "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition," identifies important factors that could cause such   differences.   With respect  to  any  such forward-looking   statement   that  includes  a  statement  of  its  underlying assumptions  or  bases,  the  Company  cautions  that,  while it  believes  such assumptions or bases to be reasonable and has formed them in good faith, assumed facts or bases  almost  always vary from  actual  results,  and the  differences between  assumed facts or bases and actual results can be significant or “material”  depending on the circumstances.  When, in any forward-looking statement, the Company, or its management,  expresses  an  expectation  or belief as to  future  results,  that expectation  or belief is  expressed  in good  faith and is  believed  to have a reasonable  basis, but there can be no assurance that the stated  expectation or belief will result or be achieved  or  accomplished.  Further, the Company is a "penny stock" and a micro-cap company with no primary market makers.  Such a status makes highly risky any investment in the Company securities.  The forward-looking statements in this Report on Form 10-K are made as of the date hereof, and we do not assume any obligation to update, amend or clarify them to reflect events,  new  information  or  circumstances  occurring  after the date hereof.

PART I

Item 1.   The Company Overview.  We are a public holding company organized under the laws of the State of Florida and engaged in the business of producing and selling certain consumer products, which are manufactured in China by contract manufacturers,  through our two wholly owned operating subsidiaries; (a) Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation organized in 1997 and acquired by us in a cash and stock transaction on September 13, 2006 (“Capstone”) and (b) Black Box Innovations, L.L.C., a Florida limited liability company (“BBIL”) formerly known as “Overseas Building Supply, L.C.” and organized by certain members of CHDT management and the Company on February 20, 2004. In April 2008, we changed the name of Overseas Building Supply, L.C., which had no significant business operations at that time, to “Black Box Innovations, L.L.C.” as part of our launch of new computer memory products to be marketed and sold by BBIL.  BBIL is operated as a division of Capstone and Capstone personnel provide the labor and services necessary to operate BBIL This allows BBIL to utilize Capstone’s existing relationships with retailers  as well as reducing operational startup costs by sharing expenses such as labor costs, office space rental and Products Liability and General Insurance. Once BBIL products generate sufficient revenues and sales volume that can support operations, BBIL will begin running as an independent subsidiary with its own personnel.

We have one dormant wholly owned subsidiary with no personnel or operations: Souvenir Direct, Inc., a Florida corporation, (“SDI”). On December 1, 2007, Capstone and SDI entered into a Purchase and Sale Agreement (the “SDI Purchase Agreement”) with Magnet World, Inc., a Florida corporation (“MWI”).  Under the SDI Purchase Agreement, the operating assets of SDI were sold to MWI for $200,000 cash. We decided to sell SDI’s business in order to: (i) focus on our primary business line, Capstone’s consumer products; (ii) eliminate a secondary business that was not contributing positive cash flow on a consistent basis and constituted a drain on resources needed for the  Capstone consumer product business line;  and (iii) to  obtain cash to fund Capstone’s consumer product business, especially the STP®-branded power tool product line  launch and introduction  in October 2007.  We will either liquidate SDI in 2009 or use it for a possible future line of products not offered by Capstone or BBIL.

Publicly Traded Securities:  Our Common Stock, $0.0001 par value, is quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the Symbol “CHDO.OB” (“Common Stock”).  No other securities of the Company are publicly traded.

Business and Product Lines:  Capstone produces through contract manufacturers in China:  (1) Portable booklights, specialty flashlights, multi-task lights and an EReader E-Lite (2) Eco-i-Lite power failure lights (3)C-Lite wireless motion sensor light (4) Light Ringers™ lamps (5) BBIL computer peripheral accessories (6) STP®-branded power tools and automotive accessories, and (2) portable booklights, specialty flashlights, and multi-task lights and(3) Eco- i- Lite™ power failure lights.

BBIL produces through contract manufacturers in China: (1) Personal Pocket SafeTM portable computer memory device that provides pre-formatted fields for easy entry of all personal important records, documents and images and (2) Secret DiaryTM is a portable computer memory device that works as a personal diary --- providing pre-teens and teens with absolute privacy while allowing for complete creativity.

We distribute those products through national and regional retailers and distributors in the United States and use our in-house sales staff and manufacturers’ representative agents to pitch that distribution network (See: “Current Products” below).accessories.

Distribution of Products:  Capstone distributes its products through existing national and regional distributors and retailers in the United States, including,   office-supply chains, book store chains, warehouse clubs, supermarket chains, drug chains, department stores, catalog houses, online retailers and book clubs.   Our largest distribution channels are: Target Stores, Wal-Mart,  Meijer Stores,  Staples,  , Barnes & Noble book stores, Fred Meyer/KrogerMeyer-Kroger Stores, Costco Wholesale, Sams Club, BJ’s Wholesale  Club, Cost –U –Less,  Northern Tool & Equipment, CSK AutoContainer Store ,  and  SmartHomeSmart Home Inc.  These distribution channels may sell our products through the Internet as well as through retail storefronts and catalogs/mail order.  When we launch new products, our sales team will introduce the new line to the applicable departments within our existing customer base.

Capstone personnel market and sell BBILBBI products and do so in the same manner as they market and sell Capstone products.

Marketing and Sales:  We use employee-salesmen, distributors, and a network of manufacturer representatives to direct sell our products to the distribution channels referenced above.   We also display and market our products at industry trade shows to promote our products to retailers and distributors in North America. We rely on our distribution channels to advertise our products to the consumers.   We have redesigned and developed new Websites for CHDT, Capstone and STP®-branded tools and BBIL products. These are user friendly sites and designed to be informational purposes only. We have developed consumer e-commerce capability on the BBIL site, but do not plan at this point to develop e-commerce capabilities on the other sites.

We also try to promote our products through sponsorships. In 2008, we were the primary sponsor for the #72 MacDonald Motorsports Dodge race car, driven by D.J. Kennington, at the NASCAR Nationwide Series, Camping World 300 at Daytona International Speedway on February 16,  2008 and remain a major associate sponsor for the remaining 34 races with one more full sponsorship at Homestead-Miami Speedway in November, 2008. The STP® logo was displayed on racing cars and related promotional displays.  The sponsorship also included a 12-race schedule in the Canadian Tire Series with D.J. Kennington, which is viewed on the Cable Speed Channel.

On February 2nd 2009 we announced that we will be the official tool sponsor for D’Hondt Motorsports, LLC in both the ARCA and Nationwide racing series for the 2009 season.

In March 2009 at the International Housewares Show, we successfully launched the Pathway Lights booklight program and the Eco-i-Light power failure light program.

In March 2010 at the International Houseware show we launched the new product line C-Lite Wireless Motion Sensor Light, the Light Ringers Lamps, expansion to our Pathway Lights program and an expansion to our BBIL program.

Strategy:  We intend to become a major producer of certain identified consumer product categories in the United States.    We expect to bring new ideas and concepts to these categories through innovation and new technology, but with certain benchmarks, namely:

-designed for an everyday use or task;
-is affordable within the range of manufacturer’s suggested retail price for such a product (below $100 or $200 dollars, depending on product and market segment);
-represent value when compared to items produced or marketed by major consumer product companies on a national scale; and
-has reasonable profit and profit margin opportunity and acceptable market penetration costs, in our opinion.


6


We hope to accomplish this goal by:by the following (which, although deemed advantages or strengths of the Company or effective means of marketing or selling, may not translate into success in sales and income):

-           Leveraging Chinese Manufacturing Relationships:  China has become a major manufacturing source for products sold in the U.S. because many of the Chinese manufacturers can quickly produce as well as engineer quality products meeting all design and product specifications, produce such products at an extremely competitive per unit cost (because of low labor rates and relatively modern manufacturing facilities) and timely direct ship those products to any place in the world.  Often, it is more economical and efficient to manufacture products in China and have them shipped to the United States than to have such products produced in North America. While this resource is available to and used by large numbers of U.S. companies, including our competitors, we believe this Chinese manufacturing resource gives us the level of production cost and quality that allows us to be competitive with larger competitors in the United States. We also have very close business partnerships with two Hong Kong-based companies, who work with us to develop and prototype new product concepts and then interface with our Chinese factories to ensure products are Quality Control tested before and during production. These Hong Kong companies also provide extensive, Quality Control, factoryproduct development, and security auditingquality control and certification,   product laboratory approvals and logisticallogistics support to ensure on time shipments .shipments. We also have close relationships with the Certification Labs in Hong Kong such as STR Labs and Bureau Vitas Labs that provide full product testing and certification and factory and security auditing services.

-           Experienced in Dealing with Retail and Distributor Networks:  We believe our management has extensive experience in getting consumer products into the retail and distribution channels, which is key to being competitive in our segments of the consumer product industries; and

-           Niche Markets.  We believe our management is experienced in locating and developing niche consumer product opportunities that may be overlooked or underexploited by competitors, especially larger competitors.   Typically, we seek to find consumer products where we believe that we can win a profitable niche of the market share – one where the number or extent of commitment of competitors presents a reasonable opportunity to acceptable market entry costs to obtain a profitable market niche.


8


-           Leveraging Licensing and Brand Name Services.  We are pursuing and using recognized trademarks or logos of other companies, like STP®,   to assist our products in gaining market recognition and acceptance without extensive marketing and advertising campaigns.  The current STP® branded power tool product line is the first and an instance of such leveraging of existing trademarks.

-           Acquisition for Niche Consumer Products. We will also pursue acquiring promising niche consumer products by acquiring other companies with such niche consumer products or the technology to develop such niche consumer products.  We will use, in most instances, the Common Stock to acquire such companies.  If cash is required for an acquisition, we will have to raise such cash by selling our securities to investors and/or borrowing money from our officers and directors and/or third party sources.  The selling of our securities will dilute our existing shareholders and the borrowing of money will divert any cash flow from operations.  Despite these negative consequences, we believe that we cannot be competitive or successful without innovation and expansion of consumer products, which may require acquisition by merger or other form of acquisition.  The low market price of our Common Stock makes acquisitions difficult to negotiate and consummate.  Some of the companies, technology or products acquired by us may be owned by CHDT management or affiliates.

Patents and Proprietary Rights:  Patents currently owned by CHDTCapstone include:

- Liqui-Light Flashlights.

There can be no assurance that patent applications owned by us, or licensed to us, will issue as patents or that, if issued, our patents will be valid or that they will provide us with meaningful protection against competitors or with a competitive advantage. There can be no assurance that we will not need to acquire licenses under patents belonging to others for technology potentially useful or necessary to us and there can be no assurance that such licenses will be available to us, if at all, on terms acceptable to us. Moreover, there can be no assurance that any patent issued to or licensed by us will not be infringed or circumvented by others. In particular, if we are unable to obtain issuance of a patent with broad claims with respect to our products or if we are unable to prevail in oppositions against our foreign patents with similar claim scope, a competitor may be able to design around our patent rights by employing technologies or innovations that are not covered by our subsisting patents.  Litigating intellectual property rights claims is very expensive and we may not have the available cash flow to engage in litigation in every or any specific instance.

Much of our know-how and technology may not be patentable. To protect our rights, we require employees, consultants, advisors and collaborators to enter into confidentiality agreements. There can be no assurance, however, that these agreements will provide meaningful protection for our trade secrets, know-how or other proprietary information in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure. In addition, our business may be adversely affected by competitors who independently develop competing technologies, especially if we obtain no, or only narrow, patent protection.

Lastly, there can be no assurance that third-parties will not bring suit against us for patent infringement by a licensee or us, , or to have our patents declared invalidinvalid.  We do not have insurance to cover such intellectual property lawsuits and such lawsuit can be extremely expensive to defend.

Competition:  Capstone competes against numerous consumer product companies.  Competitors of Capstone include:  Zelco Industries,  Inc. of  Mount Vernon,  New York,  which makes the ITTY BITTY(TM) light and Lightwedge, LLC of Nantucket, Massachusetts.  With trends and technology continually changing, to remain competitive in the industry, Capstone will have to continue to develop and introduce new products and color options at competitive pricing.  Many national retailers such as Target, Walmart and Barnes & Noble offer book lights as part of their product line. Where possible, we will endeavor to introduce the latest battery technology identified in the power tool business into our other product categories.

Power Tools Segment:  According to Cleveland State University: 1

- the global market for power tools (home use and construction grade) in 2009 is projected to be $29.2 billion;
-In 2004, 37% of that global market was controlled by Black & Decker (U.S.), Bosch (Germany), TechTronic (Hong Kong), Makita (Japan), and Hitachi (Japan);
-70% of the power tool market is commercial users and 30% is home users; and
-North American makes up 40% of sales in the global power tool market.

We face extensive competition from numerous competitors in the power tool and accessory product line in the United States.  Many of our competitors have significantly greater resources, far more years in selling this market segment and far greater market share than we do.  Companies like Black & Decker, Bosch, Mikita, Hitachi, TechTronic, Porter & Cable, Panasonic, Ryobi and CPO Milwaukee are significantly larger companies than we are and they have well-established and much larger market share than we do in the U.S. home use power tool industry.  Our ability to obtain any market share in the U.S. home use power tool market will dependdepended on the quality and price competitiveness of our Chinese-made power tool line and the name recognition and consumer acceptance of our licensed STP®-brand name for our power tool line for home use.   There are dozens of smaller companies that are competing for the U.S. home use power tool market.   We started to market and sell our STP®-branded power tool line in October 2007.  WithHowever after initial successes we have been impacted by the continued severe downturn in the retail market especially the automotive and hardware segments,segments. After exhausting our efforts in this market it is evident that this category will remain severely depressed as a result of the recession and we do not have sufficient track recordplan to predict whether we will be able to attain any or a profitable market niche for such productcontinue marketing this line or will be able to compete in this industry segment.  Success in this market segment is important to the success of our efforts to attain sustained profitability.

Government Regulation: We are subject to regulation by federal and state securities authorities (including FINRA) as well as usual and customary state and county business and tax regulation of a for-profit business.  Capstone and BBIL are subject to the usual and customary federal, state and local business and tax regulation of a consumer products company and a for-profit business.  We are not subject to any U.S. federal, state or local regulation that poses, in our opinion, any special or unusual burden or obstacle to conducting our business and financial affairs.   Our main concern in terms of government regulation is the changing regulatory environment in China and its impact on our ability to access our consumer product manufacturing sources and obtain our consumer products.  While the general trend in China has to be conducive to trade and commerce, China is a still a single-party nation-state in which the central government has the power to dramatically and immediately change its trade and commercial policies and laws.  China has benefited greatly from a more liberal trade and commercial policies and laws in the 1990’s and this decade to date.  However, political or military conflict between the United States and China, who are rivals for power and influence in Asia and to an increasing extent all along the Pacific Rim as well as being diametrically opposed to one another over the status of Taiwan, could provoke a change in Chinese trade or commercial law that makes it more difficult or expensive for us to obtain consumer products.  Such a development would have a serious impact on our ability to compete in the United States in the niche consumer product market.

WORLDWIDE RECESSION: It is too early to predict the impact of the current worldwide recession and financial crisis on our business. We have not seen any significant decline in sales as of the date of this Report. We do not conduct business with any financial institution that is currently under federal government control or dependent on federal government financial assistance.

Bank Loan. On May 1, 2008, Capstone entered into a $2 million principal-amount, asset-based loan agreement with Sterling National Bank of New York City whereby Capstone received a credit line to fund working capital needs (“Loan”).   The Loan provides funding for an amount up to 85% of eligible Capstone U.S. accounts receivable and 50% of eligible Capstone inventory. The interest rate of the Loan shall be the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate plus one and one-half percent (1.5%) per annum (adjusted automatically with changes in the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate).  Capstone management believes that this credit line and available cash flow will be adequate to fund most of Capstone’s ongoing working capital needs. CHDT and Howard Ullman, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of CHDT, have personally guaranteed Capstone’s obligations under the Loan. The foregoing summary of the Loan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the documents evidencing the Loan, which are attached as exhibits 10.1 through 10.4 to the Form 8-K, dated May 1, 2008,  and filed with the SEC on May 8, 2008.  The maturity date for this loan was May 1, 2010. On February 19, 2010, Capstone entered a loan modification agreement which extended the loan for two years until May 1, 2012. The interest rate for the loan shall be the contract rate plus one and three quarter’s percent (1.75%)

Employees:  As of December 31, 2008,2009, we had a total of 9 full-time employees, consisting of 4 officers employed by CHDT and five  persons employed by Capstone.  Capstone may add 2 to 4 additional salespersons in 20092010 to sell its consumer products and an additional logistics coordinator.  Capstone personnel also serve as BBIL personnel in bookkeeping, clerical, administrative, marketing and sales functions.

Company History:  The Company was incorporated under the name “Freedom Funding, Inc." in Delaware on September 18, 1986.  On January 18, 1989, the Company reincorporated from Delaware to Colorado. On November 18, 1989 the name of the Company was changed to "CBQ, Inc." On May 17, 2004, the Company changed its name from "CBQ,“CBQ, Inc.” to “China Direct Trading Corporation” and also reincorporated from Colorado to Florida by a statutory merger.

From 1986 through 1997, the Company had no business operations and its sole activity was to pursue its business plan to investigate business opportunities in which to engage by merger or acquisition. The Company was a "blank check" shell company during this initial  development stage.

From 1997 through 2002, the Company became a holding company acquiring a series of small, private companies and operating subsidiaries.

These operating subsidiaries were engaged in either software systems development operations, resellers of computer hardware and software manufactured by other companies, installers and repair firms of computer networks, or providers of various information technology technical consulting services. Most of these acquisitions were accomplished by stock-for-stock exchanges. By the fourth quarter of 2002, these operating subsidiaries had ceased conducting business due to their inability to compete effectively in their respective geo-graphical markets; loss of key sales, technical, sales and management personnel; unexpected downturns in customer demand in certain industries (especially in the value-added reseller of computer hardware and software); inadequate management and planning (especially the lack of a coherent strategic business plan); failure of CHDT to eliminate duplicative overhead among its operating subsidiaries; inadequate financing of operations; use of financing for non-revenue generating purpose; inability to obtain financing or funding on affordable or commercially reasonable terms or at all; or a combination of the foregoing factors.

By the first quarter of fiscal year 2003,   we had no business operations or source of revenue and its management was reduced to a caretaker officer and one to two directors.

From December 1, 2003 to September 2006:  On December 1, 2003, we acquired SDI, which became the Company's sole wholly-owned operating subsidiary at that time.   SDI management also became our management as part of the stock-for-stock acquisition of SDI.  Howard Ullman was the principal shareholder of SDI at the time of our acquisition and he became the senior executive of CHDT as a result of the acquisition of SDI.

On January 27, 2006,  CHDT entered into a Purchase  Agreement  (the  “CPS Purchase  Agreement”) with  William  Dato (“Dato”) and Complete  Power  Solutions  LLC, a Florida limited liability company, (“CPS”)  pursuant  to which CHDT  acquired  from Dato 51% of the member interests of CPS for a purchase price consisting of the payment of $637,000 in cash and the delivery of 600,000 unregistered shares of CHDT's Series A Convertible  Preferred  Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) having a stated value of $1,200,000 which were convertible into 50,739,958 shares of CHDT's Common Stock.

On January 26, 2007,  we entered into a Purchase and Settlement  Agreement, dated and effective as of December 31, 2007  ("CPS Settlement Agreement") with CPS, Dato and Howard  Ullman (our Chairman of the Board and  also Chief Executive Officer at the time),  whereby:  (a) CPS is repurchasing  the 51% CPS Membership  Interests owned by us in return for the transfer of 600,000 shares of our Series A Preferred  Stock"),  and which are convertible into 50,739, 958 shares of our Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, beneficially owned by  Dato, to us,  and (b) the issuance of a promissory note by CPS to us in the principal  amount of $225,560,  bearing annual interest at 7% with interest-only  payments commencing on July 1st and thereafter  being paid quarterly on April 1st, July 1st, October 1st and January 1st until the  principal and all unpaid  interest  thereon shall become due and payable on the maturity date,  being January 26, 2010, (the "2007 Promissory Note") and (c) the mutual releases  contained in the Agreement.  As a result of this transaction, we have no ownership interest in CPS and  neither  CPS nor Dato will have an  ownership  interest in us (from the CPS Purchase Agreement). The 2007 Promissory Note provides that if principal and accrued interest thereon is not paid in full by the maturity date, then 2007 Promissory  Note's maturity  date will be roll over for  successive  one year periods until paid in full.  For any roll over period, the annual interest will be increased to 12%. The 2007 Promissory  Note  also  provides  that  the  principal  amount  may be automatically  increased by an amount up to $7,500 if the amount  claimed as the cost of  replacement  of a  garden  by the  customer  for a power  generator  is abandoned or settled for less than $7,500.  The Agreement allows CPS to off set, if CPS so  elects,  any  payments  due under the 2007  Promissory  Note to us  by any amounts owed to CPS under the  indemnification  provisions  of the CPS Settlement Agreement.

The 2007 Promissory Note, CPS Settlement Agreement and CPS Purchase Agreement are attached as exhibits to this Report and all summaries herein of those agreement and instrument are qualified in their entirety by reference to said agreements and note as attached as exhibits hereto.

CPS is also indebted to us under a promissory note in the original principal  amount of  $250,000,  executed  by Dato on June 27, 2006 and payable to us,  bearing  interest at 7% per annum and maturing on June 30,  2007,  subject to  extension  (the "2006  Promissory  Note") and subject to offset by (i) $41,600  owed by an affiliate of  CHDT to the CPS for funds advanced by CPS for  portable  generators  which were never  delivered  and (ii) $15,000 as an agreed amount paid to compensate CPS for refunds required to be made to clients of CPS for  cancelled  sales made  personally  by Howard  Ullman (which amounts  have been  applied  first to accrued  and unpaid interest  due September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006 and then applied to quarterly interest payable on the principal of the 2006 Note to maturity (June 30, 2007),  and then to reduce the principal  amount of the 2006  Promissory  Note to $210,900).

Further,  the CPS Settlement Agreement:  (a) cancels the Voting  Agreement,  dated January 27, 2006,  by and among Dato, CHDT and Howard  Ullman;  (b) removes us as a party to the Employment Agreement, dated January 27, 2006, with Dato and CPS and  (d) requires CPS and Dato to  cooperate  with us and the auditors   in    completing    all   audits    required   by CHDT’s Commission-reporting  obligations in fiscal years 2006 and 2007. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, Dato resigned from all positions at CHDT and Howard Ullman resigned from all positions at CPS - both effective  January 26, 2007.

The net result of the CPS Settlement Agreement was to cancel the transactions  entered into by and among CHDT, CPS and Dato under the CPS Purchase Agreement by and among CHDT, CPS and  Dato, which transaction was reported by the Form 8-K filed by CHDT with the  Commission on January 31, 2007, and end  CHDT’s involvement in the  distribution of commercial and residential standby power generators by CPS.

CHDT and certain note holders were involved in a lawsuit against CPS and others over payments due under the above referenced notes. CHDT was awarded a judgment against CPS but after further legal pursuit, it has been determined that any payments awarded under the judgment are uncollectable.

On September 15, 2006, we entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Capstone and Stewart Wallach, the sole shareholder, a director and a senior executive officer of Capstone. Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, we acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Capstone Common Stock in exchange for $750,000 in cash (funded by the previously reported credit line provided by certain directors of CHDT) and $1.25 million in Series B Preferred Stock, $0.01 par value per share, which Series B Stock is convertible into 15.625 million “restricted” shares of our Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (“Common Stock”).   We have agreedOn July 9th, 2009 the outstanding Series B Preferred Shares were converted to registerSeries B-1 Preferred Shares. The series B-1 shares are convertible into common stock; at a rate of Common Stock under the Securities Act to cover the conversion66.66 of common shares for each share of series “B-1” In 2009 the Series B Stock issued to Mr. Wallach in the acquisition of Capstone.  We anticipate filing such registration statement in mid-2009, if at all.

B-1 shares were converted into common stock.  As of January 1, 2007, SDI has merged its operations and marketing efforts under the Capstone umbrella in order to streamline operations and consolidate sales and marketing operations under one company.   The executive management of Capstone also became the executive management of CHDT at the time of the acquisition.On December 1, 2007 SDI’s operating assets were sold to an unaffiliated buyer.   SDI has been dissolved in 2009 under Florida law.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS

(A) VARYING, UNPREDICTABLE FINANCIAL RESULTS.RESULTS.  Our periodic operating results may significantly  fluctuate from time to time due to sales  cycles or  decreased  demand  from customers  or  reliance  on and a  decrease  in demand  from those limited number of customers that generate most of the sales revenues, limited funding or cash flow, or changes in business focus.  Investors should not rely on financial results for any fiscal period as an accurate basis for predicting or an indication of future financial results. Our future revenues and results of operations may significantly fluctuate due to a combination of factors, many of which are outside of management's control.  Our operating results for any particular quarter may not be indicative of future operating results.  Prospective investors should not rely on quarter-to-quarter comparisons of results of operations as an indication of future consolidated or segment performance, especially since we have experienced changes from year to year in our business lines or business focus.  It is possible that results of operations may be below the expectations of public and investors, which could cause the market price of our Common Stock to fall.  The most important of these factors include:

*          market   rejection of Chinese-made products;
*          drop   in   consumer   demand for our products;products or changes in consumer buying habits;
*          increased competition from competitors, especially from competitors  with  substantially
greater resources than us;us, especially targeted marketing by such
            competitors to eliminate us, as a small business competitor, from a specific product line or market;
*          political or economic or trade conflicts between the U.S. and China;
*          ability to obtain products on favorable terms from our Chinese manufacturing sources;
*          general economic conditions;
*   ��          impact of terrorism on the businesses of CHDT;
*          the timing  and   effectiveness   of  marketing  and product expansion programs;
*          the timing of the introduction of new products;
*          the availability of funding or financing in a timely manner and on affordable terms;
*          timing and effectiveness of capital expenditures; and
*          Strengthchange in distribution terms and conditions or approach by the third parties that distribute or sell our products;
*          any decline in brick-and-mortar retailers (our main distribution channel) and increase in web-based sales of products (where we do not have a significant presence);
    and
*          strength of foreign and domestic competition.


 
1213

 

We have also had a history of successive operating subsidiaries or business lines failing and several resulting changes in management and business focus.  While we are optimistic about the abilities and business plan of current management, which has been in place since 2007, we have not yet achieved any record of sustained profitability despite substantially increasing our revenue growth from quarter-to-quarter in 2008.profitability.  We believe that only such a record of performance will allow any sustained increase in the market price of our Common Stock, which during the past five years has been consistently lower than two cents per share.  The Company reviews options to enhance shareholder value from time to time, including, without limitation, a change in business line or lines, and mergers and acquisitions.

(B)  CURRENT ECONOMIC CONDITIONS.CONDITIONS. Many economic and other factors outside of our control, including consumer confidence, consumer spending levels, employment levels, consumer debt levels and inflation, as well as the availability of consumer credit, affect consumer spending habits. A significant deterioration in the global financial markets and economic environment, recessions or uncertain economic outlook, could adversely affect consumer spending habits, and can result in lower levels of economic activity. The current worldwidedomestic and international political situation also affects consumer confidence. Any of these events or factors can curtail consumers spending, especially with respect to our more discretionary offers. During fiscal 2009, there was a significant deterioration of global markets and economic recession may adversely impactenvironment which negatively impacted consumer spending at retail. If these adverse trends in economic conditions continue to worsen or our business.  Our productsefforts to counteract these trends are not essential goods in termssufficiently effective, our revenue would decline, negatively affecting our results of the basic requirements of life and, while our products typically retail below $100, our products may suffer in the future sales if consumers defer non-essential consumer product purchases in the face of an ongoing economic recession.  While we cannot predict the extent of such an impact, we are seeking to obtain advance purchases of products from our customers in order to build a back-log of product orders to provide steady cash flow through fiscal years 2009 and 2010.  We will not know whether these efforts will succeed until mid summer of fiscal year 2009.operations.

(C)   RELIANCE ON KEY PERSONNEL.PERSONNEL.  We rely on Stewart Wallach, Gerry McClinton, Laurie Holtz  and Howard Ullman for executive management, financial management and  strategic planning for the Company.  The loss of the services of any one those executives would adversely impact our business and financial prospects.  Neither CHDT nor Capstone has a key-man insurance policy or  similar  policy to fund the cost of  replacing  any of the aforesaid key personnel.  We lack internal cash resources to fund such replacement.

We may not be able to attract and retain qualified personnel, which could impact the quality of our content and services and the effectiveness and efficiency of our management, resulting in increased costs and losses in revenue.  Our success also depends on our ability to attract and retain qualified sales and marketing, customer support, financial and accounting, legal and other managerial personnel.   Our personnel may terminate their employment at any time for any reason.  Loss of personnel may also result in increased costs for replacement hiring and training.  If we fail to attract new personnel or retain and motivate our current  personnel,  we may not be able to operate  our  businesses  effectively  or  efficiently,  serve our  customers properly or maintain the quality of our content and services.

(D) MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS.ACQUISITIONS.  We may seek from time to time to consummate mergers and acquisitions of companies in complementary industries to our industries as part of a strategy to grow or acquire new products, which mergers and acquisitions could have an adverse impact on our financial and business condition and prospects as a result of inability to manage growth or integrate or manage acquired operations.  We have historically tried to expand or grow our business through mergers and  acquisitions  with  small,  private companies  with existing  operations.  Except for Capstone,  those prior efforts have failed to establish a business or businesses with steady or growing revenues, or grow the  overall  revenues  or  business  of the  Company  for any extensive period.  Most of our acquired businesses failed and we closed or sold off.  The historically and current low market price of our Common Stock is a significant deterrent or hindrance to consummating mergers and acquisitions or do so on commercially reasonable terms and conditions.

Any such mergers and acquisitions may not, due to the low market  price  of  our common  stock,  and  our lack of  extensive  cash reserves,  be consummated on terms that are favorable to us or without certain  conditions,  such as a provision allowing the acquired or merged entity to spin out of or split  off from us in the  future  or if  certain milestones are not met.


 
1314

 

We have throughout its history acquired new businesses,  as we expect to continue  to make  acquisitions  in the  future.  With respect  to  recent  and any  future  acquisitions, we may  fail to successfully  integrate  our  financial  and  management  controls,  technology, reporting  systems and procedures,  or adequately  expand,  train and manage our work force. The process of integration could take a significant period of time and will require the  dedication of management  and other  resources,  which may distract management's attention from our other operations. If we make acquisitions   outside  of  our  core  businesses,   assimilating  the  acquired technology,  services or products  into our  operations  could be difficult  and  costly.  Our inability to successfully integrate any acquired company, or the failure to achieve any expected synergies,  could  result in  increased expenses and a reduction in expected revenues or revenue growth, and as a result our stock price could fluctuate or decline.

Such risks include:

* the  risk  that  our  industry  may  develop  in  a  different direction  than  anticipated  and  that  the  technologies  we acquire do not prove to be those we need to be  successful  in the industry;

* the risk that future  valuations  of acquired  businesses  may decrease from the market price we paid for these acquisitions;

* the generation of insufficient revenues by acquired businesses to offset acquisition costs and increased  operating expenses  associated with these acquisitions;

* the potential  difficulties in completing  in-process research and development  projects and delivering high quality products to our customers;

* the  potential   difficulties  in  integrating  new  products, businesses  and  operations  in  an  efficient  and  effective manner;

* the risk  that our  customers  or  customers  of the  acquired businesses may defer  purchase  decisions as they evaluate the impact of the acquisitions on our future product strategy;

* the   potential   loss  of  key   employees  of  the  acquired businesses;

* the risk that acquired businesses will divert the attention of our senior  management from the operation of our core Capstone business; and

* the risks of  entering  new  markets in which we have  limited experience and where  competitors  may have a stronger  market presence.

Our inability  to  successfully   operate  and  integrate newly-acquired  businesses  appropriately,  effectively  and in a timely  manner  could have a material adverse effect on our ability to take advantage of further  growth in demand for products in our  marketplace,  as well as on our  revenues, gross margins and expenses.


15


(E)  WE HAVE A SMALL MANAGEMENT  AND STAFF AND MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ADEQUATELY  HANDLE ANY GROWTH IN OUR BUSINESS AND TO IMPLEMENT AND MAINTAIN INTERNAL  FINANCIAL AND ACCOUNTING  CONTROLS AND SYSTEMS.

If we cannot effectively manage growth, if any, and whether from mergers and acquisitions or internal growth, our business may suffer or fail.  We have previously expanded our operations through acquisitions in order to pursue perceived existing and potential  market opportunities and in most instances we have failed to do so. If we fail to manage our growth properly, it may incur unnecessary expenses and the efficiency of our operations may decline. To manage any growth effectively, we must, among other things:

14


* successfully  attract,  train,  motivate  and  manage a larger number of employees for  production  and testing,  engineering and administration activities;

* control higher inventory and working capital requirements; and

* improve the efficiencies within our operating, administrative, financial and accounting  systems,  and our  procedures  and controls.

(F) A FEW OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS HAVE VOTING CONTROL OVER CHDT.  A few members of management beneficially own approximately 40%52% of our outstanding Common Stock on a fully diluted basis. Howard Ullman,  the Chairman of the Board, beneficially  owns  approximately  26%15% of issued and  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock (excluding conversion of any preferred stock of CHDT or the exercise of options). Stewart Wallach,  the Chief Executive Officer, beneficially  owns  approximately  19% of issued and  outstanding  shares of Common  Stock (excluding conversion of any preferred stock of CHDT or the exercise of options).
 These members of  management control the  management and affairs and have voting power sufficient to determine any matters requiring shareholder approval, including:

* election of our board of directors;

* removal of any of our directors;

* amendment of our certificate of incorporation or bylaws;

* adoption of  measures  that could delay or prevent a change in control  or  impede  a  merger,  takeover  or  other  business combination involving us; and

* Significant    corporate    transactions, like    mergers, acquisitions, dissolution, recapitalization, stock splits and bankruptcy.

This voting control by insiders over CHDT may hinder the interests of public shareholders from being fully considered in corporate decision making or actions and may result in corporate actions that are not always in furtherance of our public shareholder interests.   Further, the voting control of a few members of management may shield management from pressure from public shareholders for changes or revisions in failing or underachieving business strategies.


16


(G)  INADEQUATE OR EXPENSIVE FUNDING OR FINANCING.FINANCING.   We rely on funding from insiders and investors from time to time to fund operations or extraordinary transactions and we may be unable to raise adequate funding or financing to survive unexpected  revenue shortfalls,  or to reduce  operating  expenses quickly enough to offset any such unexpected revenue shortfall.  The funding and cash flow problems of the Company often hinder or undermine business development efforts, which in turn undermines the market price of our Common Stock.

If we have a shortfall in revenues without a corresponding reduction to its expenses, operating results may suffer.  If we do not have sufficient bank financing, we will be forced to seek expensive financing or funding, or forms of financing that require issuance of our securities (such as  equity  credit  lines or PIPE  financing).  Such financing  would dilute the position of existing  shareholders  and put negative pressure  on the market  price of the  our  Common  Stock  while  possibly failing to provide  adequate and ongoing working capital for the Company and its operations.  While members of our management have provided personal loans to us to fund overhead and acquisitionsworking capital in fiscal year 2008,2009, we cannot be sure that such financing will be available in the future or in amounts that are adequate to meet our working capital needs. During 2008 Capstone   secured  a conventional $2,000,00 asset based loan from Sterling  National Bank in New York  to  help fund Capstone’s working capital needs. This original line matured on May 1, 2010.  On February 14, 2010 this line was renewed for a further 2 years until May 1, 2012.  This facility funds up to 85% of eligible Accounts Receivable and 50% of eligible on hand Inventory.  However the continued reliance on private placement of CHDT securities and insider loans or investments to fund CHDT working capital needs and Capstone product development may depress or limit the market price for our Common Stock.

15


(H)(H)  COMPLIANCE WITH CHANGING  REGULATION OF CORPORATE  GOVERNANCE AND PUBLIC DISCLOSURE MAY RESULT IN ADDITIONAL EXPENSES.

Changing  laws,   regulations  and  standards   relating  to  corporate governance and public  disclosure,  including the  Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or "SOX" .and new SEC  regulations  are creating  uncertainty for companies such as ours.  These new or changed  laws,  regulations  and  standards  are  subject to varying interpretations in many cases due to their lack of specificity, and as a result,  their  application  in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory  and governing  bodies,  which could result in continuing uncertainty  regarding  compliance  matters  and higher  costs  necessitated  by ongoing  revisions to disclosure and governance  practices.  We intend to invest resources to comply with evolving laws, regulations  and  standards,  and this investment  may result in increased  general and  administrative  expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance  activities.  If our efforts to comply with new or changed laws, regulations and standards  differ from the activities  intended by regulatory or governing bodies due to ambiguities  related to practice,  our reputation and attraction as an investment may be substantially harmed.

(I)WE NEED TO REGULARLY INTRODUCE NEW PRODUCTS TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE.

We need to regularly introduce new products with enhanced features, styles and/or technology to remain competitive in our product lines.  We believe that we have done so to date in the lighting product line.  If we are unable to keep up with the trend in our primary product lines to introduce new products with enhanced or popular functions, styles and technologies, we may fail to compete in those product lines.


17


(II)  RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK

(A) RISKS RELATING TO OUR SECURITIES.  OUR COMMON STOCK IS A "PENNY STOCK" UNDER SEC RULES AND,  AS SUCH,  THE MARKET FOR OUR COMMON  STOCK IS LIMITED BY CERTAIN SEC RULES  APPLICABLE TO PENNY  STOCKS.STOCKS.  Our Common Stock is subject to certain  "penny stock" rules  promulgated by the SEC. Those rules impose certain sales practice requirements  on brokers who sell "penny stock" ( that is, stock with a market price below $5 per share and more commonly  below $1 per share) to persons other than  established  customers and accredited  investors  (generally institutions  with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals  with net worth in excess of $1,000,000).  Brokers must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale.  Furthermore,  the penny stock rules generally require, among other things,  that brokers engaged in secondary trading of penny stocks provide customers with written  disclosure  documents,  monthly statements of the market value of penny stocks,  disclosure of the bid and asked prices and disclosure of the  compensation  to the  brokerage  firm and  disclosure  of the sales  person working for the brokerage firm. These rules and regulations adversely affect the ability of brokers to sell or promote our Common Stock  shares and limit the  liquidity  and market price of our securities.  Our lack of any sustained history of sustained profitability from operations also depresses our the market value of our Common Stock.

(B) NO DIVIDENDS.DIVIDENDS.   We have not paid and we do  not intend to pay dividends  on our Common Stock in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain all future earnings, if any, to finance our current and proposed business activities and do not  anticipate  paying any cash  dividends  on our  Common  Stock in the foreseeable  future.  We may also incur  indebtedness  in the  future  that may prohibit or  effectively  restrict  the payment of cash  dividends on our Common Stock.

(C)(C)   OUR COMMON STOCK’S MARKET PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE AND COULD FLUCTUATE WIDELY IN PRICE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SUBSTANTIAL LOSSES FOR INVESTORS.INVESTORS, OR FAIL TO MAINTAIN ANY APPRECIATION IN PRICE.       The market  price of our Common  Stock is likely to be highly  volatile and could  fluctuate  widely in price in  response to various  factors,  many of which are beyond our control, including:

*           our lack of primary market makers for our Common Stock – we have market makers but none are primary market makers who maintain an inventory of our Common Stock and actively support the Common Stock;
*          general worldwide economic conditions and the current crisis in the financial markets;
*           the lack of research  analysts or news media coverage of CHDT or our Common Stock;
*           additions or departures of key personnel;
*           sales of our Common Stock by the Company or insiders;
*           our status as a “Penny Stock” Company;

16


*           our ability to execute our business plan;
*           operating results being below expectations;

(D) SALE OF A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MAY CAUSE THE PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO DECLINE. The market price of our Common Stock could decline as a result of sales of  substantial  amounts  of our  Common  Stock  in the  public  market,  or the perception that these sales could occur.  These factors could make it more difficult for us to raise funds  through  future  offerings  of Common Stock.  We continue to date to rely on private placement of our securities and insider-management loans to fund operations or business development efforts.  We already have over 561648 million shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding.  This large float also depresses our Common Stock’s market price and discourages investor investment in our Common Stock.

18


With no primary market makers, our Common Stock tends to fall back to prior price levels whenever there is an increase in the stock price.  We believe this is the result of sell offs by investors seeking to attain any profit, no matter how slight, from the Common Stock.

(E)  THE LACK OF PRIMARY MARKET MAKERS AND INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR SUPPORT LIMITS THE ABILITY OF OUR COMMON STOCK TO MAINTAIN ANY INCREASES IN VALUE.  We lack primary market makers and institutional support for our Common Stock traded in the public markets. As result, whenever the market price for our Common Stock experiences any significant increase in market price, in terms of percentage increase,  it is difficult for our Common Stock to maintain such an increased market price due to  the pressure of shareholders selling shares of Common Stock to reap any profits from such increase in market price and the lack of primary market makers and institutional investors to stabilize and support any such increase in market price of our Common Stock (by not selling their positions of such stock in response to market price increases and entering the market to purchase more shares of our Common Stock).

Item 1B:   Unresolved SEC Staff Letters.  None for fiscal year ended December 31, 2008.2009.

Prior Fiscal Years.   As previously reported in our SEC filings, we received comments and inquiries from the Division of Corporation Finance (“DFC”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about September 7, 2007, which communication concerned our Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006. The comments and inquiries were part of the DFC’s periodic review of SEC-reporting company Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 periodic filings. As part of the Company’s response to the SEC, the Company filed a Form 8-K, dated and filed with the Commission on October 12, 2007, to report the corrections to the financial statements for the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 that were previously filed as Note 14 to the financial statements of the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006.

Note 14 states in its entirety: “We have restated our balance sheet at December 31, 2005,  and  statements  of operations,  stockholders' equity and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2005.  The restatement impacts the year ended  December 31,  2005, but has no effect on the financial statements issued in prior fiscal years. The restatement is the result of a correction of an error.  In 2005, the Company did not accrue $175,000 of directors' fees that had been  authorized,  but not paid at December 31, 2005. The $175,000 was paid in 2006 with the issuance of Common Stock. Also, the Company had accrued  $30,600 in payroll tax expense on accrued  compensation of  $200,000  that  had  been  paid in  stock at  December  31,  2005,  that was subsequently treated as contract services and not employee services.  The impact of the restatement on the balance sheet was to increase current liabilities from $573,351 to $717,751.  The impact of the restatement on net loss is an increase of $144,400,  from  $589,171 to $733,571 net of tax for the year ended  December 31, 2005. There was no change in the loss per share.”

Date of Conclusion regarding Corrections to Annual Financial Statements for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2005.  The errors in accounting treatment of the two compensation issues referenced above came to light on March 1, 2007 as a result of the audit work for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006.

Audit Committee Response: Independent director and audit committee member Jeffrey Guzy has discussed the aforementioned corrections with Robison Hill & Co., the Company’s public auditors.  The conclusion of those discussions was that the errors were the result of Company management misunderstanding inquiries from the public auditors and that misunderstanding resulted in a response to the auditors that produced the two errors in the fiscal year 2005 audit. Mr. Guzy and the public auditors also concluded that the Company’s addition of a chief operating officer with financial and accounting experience in early 2007 and the addition of an in-house bookkeeper assisted by a local accountant in early 2007 should help prevent any repeat of the miscommunication between management and the public auditors about such compensation matters and their accounting treatment.

Item 2.  Properties.

Neither the Company nor its operating subsidiaries owns any real properties or facilities.  CHDT and Capstone share principal executive offices and operating facilities at 350 Jim Moran Blvd., Suite 120, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33442. Rent expense, included in general and administrative expenses, for the years ended December 31, 20082009 and 20072008 amounted to $51,809$52,684   and $36,503,$51,809,, respectively.  The Company has no current plans to expand its facilities and believes that its current facilities will be adequate for fiscal year 2009.2010.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.

Other than as set forth below, we are not a party to any material pending legal proceedings and, to the best our knowledge, no such action by or against us has been threatened.  From time to time, we are subject to legal proceedings and claims that arise in the ordinary course of business. Although occasional adverse decisions or settlements may occur in such routine lawsuits, we believe that the final disposition of such routine lawsuits will not have material adverse effect on itsour financial position, results of operations or status as a going concern.

ESQUIRE TRADE & FINANCE INC. & INVESTOR, LLC v.  CBQ, Inc. (former name of our company)(Case Number 03 CIV. 9650 (SC), decided November 5, 2009) (formerly styled “CELESTE TRUST REG., ESQUIRE TRADE, ET AL. V. CBQ, INC. (Second, Case Number 03 CIV. 9650 RMB) (“Celeste case”).   The parties settled this case by mutual agreement on February 18, 2010.  A summary of the settlement is below. A stipulation withdrawing the plaintiffs’ appeal in the Celeste case was filed with and accepted by the court on March 8, 2010, which filing effectively ended the litigation in the Celeste case between the parties.  With the entry of the stipulation, there is no pending litigation in this matter.
The settlement and release provides a mutual, general release of all claims that plaintiffs and the Company may have against each other as the date of the release, including any causes of action or claims under the Celeste case and any related proceedings.  The settlement provides, in part, that: (1) the parties will seek a court order dismissing the Celeste case (which is the above referenced stipulation); (2) the parties will release each other from any and all claims and causes of action in or related to the Celeste case or the pending appeal to the U.S. Circuit Court for the Second Circuit;  (3) the plaintiffs will pay $100,000 towards the Company’s legal fees incurred in the Celeste case, which will go to legal counsel for the Company; (4) the Company will support the release of shares of Company Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, (“Common Stock”) owned of record by Networkland, Inc., a Virginia corporation, (“NET”) and Technet Computer Services, Inc., a Virginia corporation, (“TECH”) to the plaintiffs or their designees (each such block of Common Stock was sought by the plaintiffs in the Celeste case as part of their claims against the Company) (collectively, said shares of Common Stock held of record by NET and TECH being referred to as the “N&T Shares”));  (5) the issuance of 350,000 shares of Common Stock owned by Howard Ullman, a director of the Company, to the plaintiffs or their designees; and (6) the granting by Mr. Ullman of a five year option to purchase 20 million shares of Common Stock owned by Mr. Ullman to the plaintiffs or their designees, which option has an exercise price of $0.029 per share.  Under the settlement agreement and release, the Company will grant piggy-back registration rights to the option and underlying shares of Common Stock referenced in (6) above, which rights will be effective after June 1, 2010.  The Company will pay all registration fees and legal costs associated with any such registration, which are currently estimated to be approximately $5,000.
The settlement and release, which consists of a settlement agreement and release and option agreement by Mr. Ullman, was negotiated by Mr. Ullman on behalf of the Company with the plaintiffs. Mr. Ullman has provided case administration of the Celeste case for the Company in his capacity as a Company director.
The Company believes that the settlement and release is in the best interests of the Company and its public shareholders because (1) it will eliminate the possibility of an adverse ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals Case #07-1701-CV, April 2007; Lower Court Case# 03 Civ. 9650 RMB; US District Court, SDNY, 12/4/2003): Both the initial and amended complaint of the plaintiffs in this case against us were dismissed by the trial court upon our motion to dismiss.  The plaintiffs perfected their appeal of the dismissal of the amended complaint and the appeal was briefed in November 2007.  The appeal is currently pending beforefor the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City. CHDT is uncertain when or how the Second Circuit will rule on the plaintiffs’ appeal.  CHDT has moved that the Second Circuit to makeappeal, which adverse ruling could potentially impose a rulingsignificant liability on the briefs without oral arguments, but CHDT believes thatCompany; and (2) the plaintiffscontinuation of the Celeste case may discourage potential investors and funding sources from assisting the Company in financing operations and business development as well as make it more difficult to pursue any possible future merger and acquisition transactions, and (3) it may have requested oral arguments.  There has been no rulingsuppressed the market price of the Company Common Stock due to date on the overall appeal or CHDT’s motion for a ruling based solely on the written appeal briefs submitted to date.   While CHDT intends to appeal any adverse ruling in this casepotentially significant liability presented by the Second Circuit,case to the Company.

CPS (Complete Power Solutions, LLC): As part of the January 26, 2007,  Purchase and Settlement Agreement between CPS, CHDTCompany and other parties, CPS issued of a promissory note to us in the principal amount of $225,560, bearing annual interest at 7% with interest-only payments commencing on July 1, 2007 and thereafter being paid quarterly on October 1st, January 1st, April 1st and July1st until the principal and all unpaid interest thereon shall become due and payable on the maturity date, being January 26, 2010, (the "2007 Promissory Note").  The 2007 Promissory Note provides that if principal and accrued interest thereon is not paid in full by the maturity date, then 2007 Promissory Note’s maturity date will be roll over for successive one-year periods until paid in full.  For any roll over period, the annual interest will be increased to 12%.

CPS is also indebted to us under a second promissory note in the original principal amount of  $250,000, executed by Dato on June 27, 2006 and payable to us, bearing interest at 7% per annum and maturing on June 30, 2007, subject to extension  (the "2006 Promissory Note") and subject to offset by (i) $41,600 owed by an affiliate of CHDT to the CPS for funds advanced by CPS for portable generators which were never delivered and (ii) $15,000 as an agreed amount paid to compensate CPS for refunds required to be made to clients of CPS for cancelled  sales made  personally  by Howard  Ullman (which amounts  have been  applied  first to accrued  and unpaid  interest  due September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006 and then applied to quarterly interest payable on the principal of the 2006 Note to maturity (June 30, 2007),  and then to reduce the principal  amount of the 2006  Promissory  Note to $210,900).

CPS have failed in their responsibility to pay interest and principal payments and laid out in both of the aforesaid notes and agreement. As a result we have been forced to take legal action to collect all outstanding amounts including full payment of principals.

On March 10th, 2008 we were granted a Final Summary judgment against CPS (Case # CACE07-19082 (25) 17th Judicial Court, Broward County, Florida) for the following amounts June note $238,748.90 and January note $262,990.88 for a total of $501,739.78. We actively pursued further legal action to collect this judgment but we have now determined that this judgment is uncollectableuncollectible due the financial condition of the defendant.

Other Legal Matters. To the best of our knowledge, none of our directors, officers or owner of record of more than five percent (5%) of the securities of the Company, or any associate of any such director, officer or security holder is a party adverse to us or has a material interest adverse to us in reference to pending litigation.

We are not currently a party to any other legal proceedings that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 6.  Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Operation

Management's discussion and analysis provides supplemental information, which sets forth the major factors that have affected our financial condition and results of operations and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes. Management's discussion and analysis is divided into subsections entitled “Forward Looking Statements,” “Introduction,” “Results of Operations,” “Liquidity and Capital Resources,” “Critical Accounting Policies,” and “Risk Factors.” Information therein should facilitate a better understanding of the major factors and trends that affect our earnings performance and financial condition, and how our performance during 20082009 compares with prior years.

Forward Looking Statements

Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,1995, as amended , as well as historical information. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give no assurance that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements will prove to be correct. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors – many of those factors being beyond our control or ability to predict. Forward-looking statements include those that use forward-looking terminology, such as the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “project,” “plan,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” and similar expressions, including when used in the negative.

Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable and achievable, these statements involve risks and uncertainties and no assurance can be given that actual results will be consistent with these forward-looking statements.  Actual results may differ significantly from anticipated business and financial results.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us are expressly qualified in their entirety by these and other factors. We undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether to reflect events or circumstances after the date initially filed or published, to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events or otherwise.

As a small business issuermanufacturer with limited resources, we do not have the resources to compete head-to-head with larger, more established competitors for any of the products.  While we face fewer competitors in our booklight and specialty light product line, weWe face many national or regional brand-named competitors in the power toolall of our  product line. In general,lines. However, we attempt to compete by leveraging the engineering and manufacturing capabilities of our Chinese contract manufacturers in order to provide quality products with more functions at what we deem to be a value price and supported.

We also seek to license established trade names to assist in competing with larger competitors.  STP® is the first instance of trying this strategy. We believe that the use of a trade name like STP® combined with the competitive (in terms of functions, quality and features) products offered will reduce the cost of market penetration, which is essential because we do not have the money or funding to compete head-to-head, market-to-market with large competitors like Black & Decker, Mikita, Bosch or Ryobi.  We believe that licensing an established trade name like STP® was important to compete in the home use power tool market because that industry has many very large competitors with established market shares and years of consumer loyalty to their product lines. Black & Decker is one example of a large, established competitor in the North American home use power tool market.

Prior History.  Since the start of the 1990’s, the history of CHDT has been a series of failed operating subsidiaries engaged in various business lines.  With each failed business, we usually experienced a change in management and business focus.  We believe that these past failures were due to a combination of one or more of the following: (1) inadequate financing of operations; (2) absence of a readily available sources of affordable funding for operations and product and business exception; (3) absence of any or enough experienced managers or executives; (4) lack of adequate strategic and financial planning and accurate budgeting projections; (5) general economic conditions and downturns in industries that undermined many small businesses, especially in the value-added reseller of computer hardware and software developer and systems developer industries; (6) inability to raise money in the public markets due to poor financial track record of CHDT, resulting low stock market price  and lack of sufficient institutional investor and market maker support for CHDT Common Stock; (7) selection of business lines that CHDT was ill suited to compete in or acquire; (8) operating losses severely limiting the business  and financial options and resources of CHDT;  (9) frequent changes in management and business lines; (10) concurrently operating incompatible business lines that were ill-suited for a small business issuer; and (11) acquisitions that diverted resources from existing operations and ultimately failed and, as such, hindered CHDT’s efforts to attain profitability on a sustained basis.


 
2327

 

Starting in late 2007, we have sought to avoid the problems of the past by recruiting an experienced management and sales team for the stated purpose to develop and expand a consumer products business and we have endeavored to raise funds for planned business development efforts.  These steps have resulted in  continued losses on a quarter-by-quarter basis  for fiscal year 2008, except the 3rd quarter in which we had a profit,2009,  but we believe that this investment in corporate infrastructure is necessary to lay the foundation for possible future success and business and product development.  While we are not certain that our current strategy and business line will produce sustained future profitability or any growth, we believe that the current strategy and business line is the best approach for our current management team and available resources and, in our opinion, the most likely path to any hope of sustained future profitability.

For the years ended December 31, 20082009 and 2007,2008, the Company’s revenues were derived from 54 sources: (i) the sale of our PATHWAY LIGHTS booklight products (Capstone and its booklight product line was acquired by CHDT in September 2006); (ii) sale of Eco-i-Lite Power Failure Lights, (iii) the sale of our CLASSIFIED secured computer peripherals; and (iv) sale of our STP® tools power drills and automotive accessories; (iv) for fiscal year 2007, the sale of promotional, gift and souvenir items by our sold SDI subsidiary; and (v) revenues, if any, from our 51% membership interest in CPS, which interest we divested in 2007.accessories.

Despite the recent efforts to make CHDT and its operations a focused and professionally run organization, we continue to be hampered in our efforts to achieve sustained profitability by problems that stem from the past and our history of failed businesses. Our efforts have also been severely hampered by the current economic recession and tight credit markets.

The failure of CHDT to achieve sustained profitability in its operations continues to hamper our efforts to establish and sustain a profitable, growing business.business or cause any appreciation in our Common Stock market price.  In fiscal year 2008,2009, we had to continue our historical reliance on raising working capital for operations and business and product development by selling securities to investors and/or receiving loans or investment from members of management or their affiliates. We   were able to obtain a conventional asset based bank loan  to help support Capstone operations and working capital needs, ,howeverhowever, we may have to continue to raise working capital for  CHDT working capital and for Capstone business and product development (as well as mergers and acquisitions of other companies or their products) by selling our securities in private placements to investors and/or loans or investments by our management and their affiliates. This reliance on private placements of securities and insider loans or investments adds to the already huge number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, dilutes our shareholders and further weakens our ability to attract primary market makers and institutional investor support for our Common Stock as a publicly traded security and also adversely impacts on our ability to do mergers and acquisitions, attract traditional bank funding or raise working capital by public offerings of our securities.

Our lack of primary market makers and institutional investor support of our Common Stock also contributes to our burden in achieving sustained, profitable business lines.   These problems stem from the manner in which CHDT was taken public in the late 1980’s and developed a public market for the Common Stock in 1998.  CHDT did not, and perhaps could not under then current circumstances, do an underwritten initial public offering and produce a national network of broker-dealers and institutional investors interested in long-term investment in CHDT and stability in the market price for the Common Stock. As a result, we have had difficulty in sustaining any increases in the market price of the Common Stock.  When the market price of the Common Stock enjoys any significant percentage increase, shareholders tend to sell the Common Stock to reap any gains (no matter how small) from the market price increase and the selling causes the market price of the Common Stock to fall back to prior levels.  Since there are no primary market makers or institutional investors supporting the Common Stock, there are no investors effectively countering the impact of the selling pressure on the market price for the Common Stock. The low market price and lack of support for our Common Stock means that we are hampered in our ability to resort to the public markets to raise working capital because of the low stock market price. As such, we do not readily enjoy one of the principal benefits of being a public company: ready access to the public securities markets for working capital.

We intend to address the above problems in public and market maker support for our Common Stock by: (1) establishing  revenue growth   in consecutive fiscal quarters in our current consumer product business linelines in order to demonstrate that current management has a sound business line and business strategy; (2) upon establishing a record of profitability, members of management and agents will solicit support from institutional investors, asset managers, market makers and others to provide long-term investors in the Common Stock and stability in the public market for the Common Stock; (3) seek investment banker assistance in developing a strategic plan, including an acquisition plan, to dramatically grow CHDT in our core business line, the consumer product line.line or another non retail product line that offers entry into a new distribution channel or niche market.  We can make no assurances that we shall succeed in this effort.

We intend to remain focused on niche consumer products for the time being that we believe can attain a profitable market niche with minimal market penetration costs and is attractive to our existing distribution channel of regional and national retailers and distributors. We also recognize that the retail distribution has been negatively impacted by the ongoing economic recession. We intend to continue to develop exciting new products by internal efforts as well as acquire new products by mergers and acquisitions, but we will also look for opportunities by merger and acquisitions that would allow us to diversify into non retail distribution channels.  Nonetheless, our company is also considering a number of options to enhance shareholder value, including, without limitation, new business lines, divesting one or more existing business lines, and mergers and acquisitions.

Results of Operations: For the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company had a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $1,099,000. For the year ended December 31, 2008 the Company had a net loss from continuing operations of approximately $1,338,000. For the year ended December 31, 2007 the Company had a net loss from operations of $1,213,000. That is a net loss increasedecrease of $125,000$239,000 over 20072008 results.

Total Net Revenues: For the year ended December 31, 20082009 and 2007,2008, the Company had total net sales of approximately $6,616,000$6,161,000 and $2,826,000$6,616,000, respectively, for an increasedecrease of $3,790,000$455,000 which represents an 134% increase6.8% decrease over 2007 results.2008 revenue. All of the revenue wasrevenues were generated by Capstone.  The economic recession had a particularly severe impact in the Hardware and Automotive categories as these products are not deemed necessities by consumers.  The major reason for the total revenue reduction is attributed to $1,524,000 reduced sales for the STP® tools products. In 2009 STP® tools sales were $86,000 as compared to $1,610,000 in 2008, This increaselarge reduction was due to placement of STP® branded products shipped to automotive retailers, online retailers,partially offset by increased sales in our Eco-i-Lite, PATHWAY LIGHTS and warehouse clubs,  placement of the Eco-i-Lite, the Company’s new  multi functional light which we expect will be a strong revenue producer in 2009 and continued sales of our Booklight program.  The 2007 revenues did not include any revenues from the new STP-branded tools..

Cost of Sales: For the year ended December 31, 20082009 and 2007,2008, we had cost of sales of approximately $4,589,000$4,350,000 and $1,623,000,$4,589,000, respectively. This cost represents 69.4%70.4% and 57.4%69.4% respectively of total Revenue. Overall material costs have remained steady during the year, but we provided additional sales allowances to promote our new items that have increased overall cost of sales. As a percentage of Total Net Revenue costs have increased. This is a direct result of the expanded mix of products now being sold.  In 2007 Revenues were primarily comprised of book lights sales.increased by 1 %.
 
Gross Profit: For 2009, gross profit was $1,811,000, a reduction by approximately $215,000 or 10.6% from 2008.  For 2008, gross profit was $2,026,000, an increase by approximately $823,000 or 68% from 2007.  For 2007, gross profit was $1,203,000.$2,026,000.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 30.6%29.4% for the year as compared to 42.6%30.6% for 2007. This2008. The gross profit decrease is a directthe result of two factors.the added sales allowance offered to promote the new product launches and less sales.

1.With our expanded product lines the Gross Profit is now a blended percentage.  Each product category provides a different Gross Profit percentage
2.    Our larger customers are now buyingOur larger customers are continuing to buy on a direct import basis. The gross margin percentages are lower in this selling scenario but the Company’s expenses are also reduced as the customer is responsible for related expenses such as freight, duties and handling costs.

Even though the blended gross profit % to sales has decreased, the overall gross profit increased by $823,000 or 68% from 2007. This increase is attributed directly to the increase in product sales volume.

Operating expenses were $3,075,000$2,645,000 in 20082009 as compared to $2,454,000 an increase approximately by $621,000.$3,075,000, a net reduction of $430,000 or 14%. This increasereduction can be attributed to various factors.   Sales and Marketing expenses were $355,000, a reduction of $202,000 or 36% over the $557,000 expensed in 2008.

There are not and have not been any disagreements between the Company and its accountants on any matter of accounting principles, practices, financial statements disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.

Item 8A(T)8A (T).  Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Since December 2007,2009 our Chief Financial Officer, assisted by our Chief Operating Officer,the Corporate Controller, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal disclosure control over financial reporting  (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) for the company.  Prior toSince December 2007, theour Chief ExecutiveFinancial Officer, andoften assisted by the Chief Operating Officer, werehas been responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal disclosure control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

As of the date of this Report on Form 10-K, Stewart Wallach is our Chief Executive Officer, and James Gerald (“Gerry’) McClinton is our Chief OperatingFinancial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. Mr. Laurie Holtz is our previous Chief Financial Officer.Officer retired in 2009.  Laurie Holtz was appointed as our Chief Financial Officer in December 2007.  Mr. McClinton handleshandled the chief financial duties prior to Mr. Holtz’s appointment.

Our Chief Financial Officer, assisted by the Chief Operating Officer has reviewed the effectiveness of itsour disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f)) as of the fiscal year end of this Form 10-K.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Overover Financial Reporting.  No matter how well conceived and operated, an internal control system can provide only a certain level of confidence in the ability of the internal controls to identify errors.  In light of the inherent limitations in all internal control systems and procedures, and the limitations of the Company's resources, no evaluation of internal controls can provide absolute assurance that all defects or errors in the operation of our internal control systems are immediately identified.  These inherent limitations include the realities that subjective judgments in decision-making in this area can be faulty and that a breakdown in internal processes can occur because of simple, good faith error or mistake.  No design can in all instances immediately accommodate changes in regulatory requirements or changes in the business and financial environment of a company.  Such inherent limitations in a control system means that inadvertent misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be immediately or in a timely manner detected.  Nonetheless, we recognize our ongoing obligation to use our best efforts to design and apply internal   controls and procedures that are as effective as possible in identifying errors or breakdowns in the internal controls system and procedures.

The framework for our evaluation of the adequacy of our internal disclosure controls and procedures comes from our use of CCH, Inc.’s 2007 SOX for Small, Publicly Held Companies and applicable accounting standards and guidelines as supplemented by guidance from outside legal and accountant advice.

One possible weakness in our internal disclosure controls and procedures has been that the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has typically only met once or twice a year.  The Audit Committee is now required to meet quarterly to review audit and, with the Chief Financial Officer, the internal disclosure controls and procedures.  We do not believe that this possible weakness constitutes a material weakness in our internal disclosure controls and procedures.

We believe our internal disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the filing of this Report on Form 10-K in providing reasonable assurances that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of CHDT’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.  Management’s report was not subject to attestation by CHDT’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Commission that permit CHDT to provide only management’s report in this annual report on Form 10-K.

(b) Changes in Internal Controls

Based on a recent review by our Chief Financial Officer, we have concluded that additional resources need to be assigned to internal controls and procedures.

Such additional investment will be to pay for more frequent meeting and more oversight work by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

As stated above, the appointment of Laurie Holtz as Chief Financial Officer was, in our opinion, a major enhancement in CHDT internal controls and procedures.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
CHDT Corporation and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CHDT Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 20082009 and 20072008 and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting.  Accordingly, we express no such opinion.  An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of the other auditors, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of CHDT Corporation and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 20082009 and 20072008 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 20082009 and 20072008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
This summary of accounting policies for CHDT Corporation, a Florida corporation (formerly, “China Direct Trading Corporation”) (“Company” or “CHDT”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (“Subsidiaries”) is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. The accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.  CHDT changed its name to “CHDT Corporation” by amending its Articles of Incorporation, which name change was effective July 16, 2007 in respect of NASD Regulation, Inc. and OTC Bulletin Board approval of the name change, the trading symbol change from “CHDT.OB” to “CHDO.OB” and change in CUSIP Number for CHDT Common Stock and effective May 7, 2007 in terms of approval by the State of Florida of the charter amendment.
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
CHDT was initially incorporated September 18, 1986 under the laws of the State of Delaware under the name "Yorkshire Leveraged Group, Incorporated", and then changed its domicile situs to Colorado in 1989 by merging into a Colorado corporation, named "Freedom Funding, Inc." Freedom Funding, Inc. then changed its name to "CBQ, Inc." by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation on November 25, 1998. In May 2004, the Company changed its name from “CBQ, Inc.” to “China Direct Trading Corporation” as part of a reincorporation from the State of Colorado to the State of Florida.  Effective May 7, 2007, the Company amended its charter to change its name from “China Direct Trading Corporation” to “CHDT Corporation.”  This name change was effective as of July 16, 2007 for purposes of the change of its name on the OTC Bulletin Board.
 
Souvenir Direct, Inc. was incorporated on September 9, 2002 under the laws of the State of Florida.  Souvenir Direct, Inc. operations were transferred to Capstone Industries, Inc. in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007 and Souvenir Direct, Inc.’s operating assets were sold on December 1, 2007 to an unaffiliated buyer.
 
On December 1, 2003, CHDT issued 97 million shares common stock to acquire 100% of the outstanding common stock of Souvenir Direct, Inc. in a reverse acquisition. At thisthat time, a new reporting entity was created. Souvenir Direct, Inc. is considered the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes. Also on December 1, 2003, an additional 414,628,300 shares of common stock were issued to the previous owners of the Company.
 
In February 2004, the Company established a new subsidiary, initially named “China Pathfinder Fund, L.L.C.”, a Florida limited liability company. During 2005, the name was changed to “Overseas Building Supply, LLC” to reflect its shift in business lines from business development consulting services in China for North American companies to trading Chinese-made building supplies in South Florida.  This business line was ended in fiscal year 2007 and OBS’ name was changed to “Black Box Innovations, L.L.C.” (“BBI”) on March 20, 2008.
 
On January 27, 2006, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with Complete Power Solutions ("CPS") to acquire 51% of the member interests of CPS. CPS was organized by William Dato on September 20, 2004, as a Florida limited liability company to distribute power generators in Florida and adjacent states.  The Company subsequently sold its 51% membership interest in CPS, pursuant to a Purchase and Settlement Agreement dated and effective as of December 31, 2006.

CHDT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
On September 13, 2006 the Company entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Capstone Industries, Inc., a Florida corporation (Capstone). Capstone was incorporated in Florida on May 15, 1996 and is engaged primarily in the business of wholesaling low technology consumer products to distributors and retailers in the United States.
 
Nature of Business
 
FromSince the beginning of fiscal year 2007, the Company has been primarily engaged in the business of marketing and selling consumer products through national and regional retailers and distributors, in North America.  Capstone currently operates in four primary business segments: Lighting Products, , Power Tools, Automotive Accessories and Computer peripherals. The Company’s products are typically manufactured in the Peoples’ Republic of China by third-party manufacturing companies.
During the period that the Company owned a 51% interest in CPS (January 27, 2006 through December 31, 2006), the Company, through CPS, engaged in the business of selling and installing standby commercial and residential power generators in South Florida and, to a lesser extent, in adjacent states.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents, to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
 
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
 
An allowance for doubtful accounts is established as losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for bad debts charged to earnings.  The allowance for bad debt is evaluated on a regular basis by management and is based upon management’s periodic review of the collectability of the receivables.  This evaluation inis inherently subjective and requires estimatedestimates that are susceptible to significant revisions as more information becomes available.

As of December 31, 2008,2009, management has determined that the accounts receivable are fully collectible.  As such, management has not recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $67,433.  Net accounts receivable at December 31, 2008 was $2,399,859.accounts.

Inventory
 
The Company's inventory, which is recorded at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market, consists of finished goods for resale by Capstone, totaling $397,908 and $387,749 at December 31, 2008.2009 and  2008, respectively.
 
BBI (previously “Overseas Building Supply, L.C.”) had inventory of $40,441 at December 31, 2007.  During 2008, a director and shareholder of the Company took the remaining inventory of BBI and agreed to pay the Company for the cost of the inventory, which was $40,441.  As a result, the inventory was removed from the balance sheet as an asset, and a shareholder receivable was recorded and disclosed in the equity section of the balance sheet.
 
Property and Equipment
 
Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight- line method over the estimated economic useful lives of the related assets as follows:

Computer equipment3 - 7 years
Computer software3 - 7 years
Machinery and equipment3 - 7 years
Furniture and fixtures3 - 7 years

CHDT CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
The Company follows FASB Statement No. 144 (SFAS 144), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of, if any, are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.  No impairments were recognized by the Company during 20072008 and 2008.the first quarter of 2009.
 
Upon sale or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the determination of income or loss.
 
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Major overhauls and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated economic useful lives.
 
Depreciation expense was $111,989$133,961 and $38,583$111,989 for the years  ended December 31, 20082009 and 2007,2008, respectively.
 
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
 
Goodwill and other intangible assets are recorded under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No.142 (SFAS 142), Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. SFAS 142 requires that an intangible asset that is acquired either individually or with a group of other assets (but not those acquired in a business combination) shall be initially recognized and measured based on its fair value.  Goodwill acquired in business combinations is initially computed as the amount paid by the acquiring company in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired.
 
Costs of internally developing, maintaining and restoring intangible assets (including goodwill) that are not specifically identifiable, that have indeterminate lives, or that are inherent in a continuing business and related to an entity as a whole, are recognized as an expense when incurred.
 
An intangible asset (excluding goodwill) with a definite useful life is amortized; an intangible asset with an indefinite useful life is not amortized until its useful life is determined to be no longer indefinite. The remaining useful lives of intangible assets not being amortized are evaluated at least annually to determine whether events and circumstancecircumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life. If and when an intangible asset is determined to no longer have an indefinite useful life, the asset shall then be amortized prospectively over its estimated remaining useful life and accounted for in the same manner as other intangibles that are subject to amortization.
 
An intangible asset (including goodwill) that is not subject to amortization shall be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the intangible assets with its carrying amount. If the carrying amount of an intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess. In accordance with SFAS 142, goodwill is not amortized.
 
It is the Company's policy to test for impairment no less than annually, or when conditions occur that may indicate an impairment. The Company's intangible assets, which consist of goodwill of $1,936,020 recorded in connection with the Capstone acquisition, were tested for impairment and determined that no adjustment for impairment was necessary as of December 31, 2008,2009, whereas the fair value of the intangible asset exceeds its carrying amount.

Net Income (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings per common share were computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year.  In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Diluted loss per common share for the nine monthsyears ended December 31, 20082009 and 20072008 are not presented as it would be anti-dilutive.  At December 31, 20082009 and 2007,2008, the total number of potentially dilutive common stock equivalents was 203,295,071140,830,211 and 134,442,294,203,295,071, respectively.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 20082009 and 20072008 include the accounts of the parent entity and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Souvenir Direct, Inc., Black Box Innovations, L.L.C. (formerly “Overseas Building Supply, LLC” and formerly “China Pathfinder Fund, LLC”), and Capstone Industries, Inc.
 
The results of operations attributable to Capstone are included in the consolidated results of operatingoperations beginning on September 13, 2006, the date on which the Company’s interest in Capstone was acquired.
The results of operations attributable to the Company’s interest in its former subsidiary, CPS, for the period of time in which majority interest in CPS was held by the Company (January 27, 2006 through December 31, 2006) are included in the loss from discontinued operations on the consolidated statement of income (loss).  All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of the Company's financial instruments, including accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities at December 31, 2009 and 2008 approximates their fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
 
Reclassifications
 
Certain reclassifications have been made in the 20072008 financial statements to conform with the 20082009 presentation. There were no material changes in classifications made to previously issued financial statements.
 
Revenue Recognition
 
Product Salessales are recognized when an agreement of sale exists, product delivery has occurred, pricing is final or determinable, and collection is reasonably assured.
 
Allowances for sales returns, rebates and discounts are recorded as a component of net sales in the period the allowances are recognized.  In addition, accrued liabilities contained in the accompanying balance sheet include accruals for estimated amounts of credits to be issued in future years based on potentially defective product, other product returns and various allowances.  These estimates could change significantly in the near term.

Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 109 (SFAS 109), "Accounting for Income Taxes." SFAS 109 requires recognition of deferred income tax assets and liabilities for the expected future income tax consequences, based on enacted tax laws, of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company and its subsidiaries intend to file consolidated income tax returns

Stock-Based Compensation

On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share-Based Payments, SFAS 123(R), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors, including employee stock options, based on estimated fair values. SFAS 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25) and related interpretations, applied for periods through December 31, 2005. In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 (SAB 107) relating to SFAS 123(R). The Company has applied the provision of SAB 107 in its adoption of SFAS 123(R).

The Company adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified prospective application transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first date of the Company’s fiscal year. The Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective method, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include, the impact of SFAS 123(R).

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

SFAS 123(R) requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based payment awards on the date of the grant using an option-pricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expenses over the requisite service periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of income (loss). Prior to the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company accounted for stock-based awards to employees and directors using the intrinsic value method in accordance with APB 25, as allowed under SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123). Under the intrinsic value method, compensation expense under fixed term option plans was recorded at the date of grant only to the extent that the market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant exceeded the exercise price. Accordingly, for those stock options granted for which the exercise price equaled the fair market value of the underlying stock at the date of grant, no expense was recorded.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of share-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest during the period.  There was no stock-based compensation expense attributable to options for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 for compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted prior to, but not vested as of December 31, 2005.  Such stock-based compensation is based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the pro forma provisions of SFAS 123.  Compensation expense for share-based payment awards granted subsequent to December 31, 2005 are based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R).

In conjunction with the adoption of SFAS 123(R), the Company adopted the straight-line single option method of attributing the value of stock-based compensation expense. As stock-based compensation expense is recognized during the period is based on awards ultimately expected to vest, it is subject to reduction for estimated forfeitures. SFAS 123(R) requires forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2008, there were no material amounts subject to forfeiture. The Company has not accelerated vesting terms of its out-of-the-money stock options, or made any other significant changes, prior to adopting FASB 123(R), Share-Based Payments.

In February 2007,April 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, "The Fair Value Optionupdated ASC 820 to provide additional guidance for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities" ("SFAS 159"). SFAS 159 provides companies with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The objective of SFAS 159 is to reduce both complexity in accounting for financial instruments and the volatility in earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently. Generally accepted accounting principles have required different measurement attributes for different assets and liabilities that can create artificial volatility in earnings. The FASB has indicated it believes that SFAS 159 helps to mitigate this type of accounting-induced volatility by enabling companies to report related assets and liabilities atestimating fair value which would likely reducewhen the needvolume and level of activity for companies to comply with detailed rules for hedge accounting.

NOTE 5 – INVESTOR LOANS PAYABLE
In March, 2006, the Company executed notes payable to an investor of $25,500 and $24,500, totaling $50,000.  The notes carry an interest rate of 10% per annum and are payable if full, with accrued interest, in March 2008.  The notes are secured by shares of the Company’s common stock and convertible into the Company’s common stock.  As of December 31, 2006, the total amount payable on the notes was $54,038, including $4,038 of accrued interest.
Interest shall be payable, at the option of the note holder, in cash or in shares of the Company’s common stock.  The number of common shares to be issued as payment of accrued and unpaid interest shall be determined by dividing the total amount of accrued and unpaid interest to be converted in common stock by the “Conversion Price” (as defined below). The Note shall be convertible (in whole or in part), at the option of the note holder, into a number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock, by dividing that portion of the outstanding principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest as of the conversion date by the Conversion Price.
The Conversion Price shall mean a price no lower than $ .03 and higher than $ .04 which will be the average of the closing bid price (adjusted for stock splits, combinations, certain dividends and distributions, reclassification, exchange or substitution, reorganization, merger, consolidation or sales of asses, issuances of additional shares of common stock, and issuance of common stock equivalents) for ten days trading preceding the conversion date.

The cash paid in the transaction was obtained from capital provided to the Company for use in connection with acquisitions by Howard Ullman, our Chief Executive Officer and President, and certain of our directors and principal shareholders.
 
On January 26, 2007, the Company entered into a Purchase and Settlement Agreement (the "Settlement Agreement"), dated and effective as of December 31, 2006, with William Dato and CPS whereby: (a) CPS repurchased the 51% membership interest owned by China Direct in return for the transfer of the 600,000 shares of the Company’s "Series A Preferred Stock”, which are convertible into 50,739,958 shares of the Company's common stock, and (b) the issuance of a promissory note by CPS to CHDT for 225,560, bearing annual interest at 7% with interest-only payments commencing on July 1, 2007 and thereafter being paid quarterly on April 1st, July 1st, October 1st, and January 1st until the principal and all unpaid interest thereon shall become due and payable on the maturity date, being January 6, 2010 (the “2007 Promissory Note”).  The 2007 Promissory Note also provides that the principal amount may be automatically increased by an amount of up to $7,500 if the amount of a customer claim is settled for less than $7,500. As of the date of this report the principal amount has not been increased by an amount up to $7,500, as described above.  The shares were valued at $1,775,864 based on the market value of the common stock the shares are convertible into.
 
As of December 31, 2006, the balance due on the $225,560 was classified on the Company’s balance sheet as an amount due from former subsidiary.  This item was classified as long-term as of December 31, 2006, in anticipation of its conversion to a note receivable, the maturiymaturity of which is more than one year from the balance sheet date.  Subsequently, upon execution of the 2007 Promissory Note on January 26, 2007, the Company reclassified the balance as a long-term note receivable from former subsidiary.

CPS is also indebted to CHDT under a promissory note in the original principal amount of $250,000, executed by William Dato on June 27, 2006 and payable to CHDT, bearing interest at 7% per annum and maturing on June 30, 2007, subject to extension (the “2006 Promissory Note”) and subject to offset by (i) $41,600 owed by an affiliate of CHDT to the CPS funds advanced by CPS for portable generators that were never delivered and (ii) $15,000 as an agreed amount paid to compensate CPS for certain refunds required to be made by CPS (which amounts have been first applied to accrued and unpaid interest due September 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006 and then applied to quarterly interest payable on the principal of the 2006 Promissory Note to maturity (June 30, 2007) and then to reduce the principal amount of the 2006 Promissory Note to $210,900.


On March 10, 2008, the Company was granted a Final Summary judgment against CPS for $501,740 related to the two notes due from CPS to the Company as part of the disposal agreement entered into in January 2007.   As of December 31, 2007, the Company determined these two notes to be uncollectible and wrote-off $427,710 to expense.  The Company has pursued  legal action to collect this judgment, but it is now considered uncollectible.

NOTE 1110 - INCOME TAXES
 
As of December 31, 2008,2009, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $2,900,000$3,900,000 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2028.2029. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carryforwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

NOTE 10 - INCOME TAXES (continued)

Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The adoption of the provisions of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the company’s condensed consolidated financial position and results of operations. At January 1, 2008, the company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no accrual for the payment of related interest.

Interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are classified as “Interest expense, net” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Penalties, if any, would be recognized as a component of “Selling, general and administrative expenses”. The Company recognized $0 of interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits for the year ended December 31, 20082009 and 2007.2008.  In many cases the company’s uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by relevant tax authorities. With few exceptions, the company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2004.2006. The following describes the open tax years, by major tax jurisdiction, as of December 31, 2008:2009:

NOTE 11 – CONTINGENCIES

ESQUIRE TRADE & FINANCE INC. & INVESTOR, LLC v. (Case Number 03 CIV. 9650 (SC), decided November 5, 2009) (formerly styled “CELESTE TRUST REG., ESQUIRE TRADE, ET AL. V. CBQ, INC., Case Number 03 CIV. 9650 RMB) (“Celeste case”).   The parties settled this case on February 18, 2010.  A summary of the settlement is below. A stipulation withdrawing the plaintiff's appeal in the Celeste case was filed with and accepted by the court on February 8, 2010, which filing effectively ended the litigation in the Celeste case. 
The settlement and release provides a mutual, general release of all claims that plaintiffs and Company may have against each other as the date of the release, including any causes of action or claims under the Celeste case and any related proceedings.  The settlement provides, in part, that: (1) the parties will seek a court order dismissing the Celeste case; (2) the parties will release each other from any and all claims and causes of action in or related to the Celeste case or the pending appeal to the U.S. Circuit Court for the Second Circuit;  (3) the plaintiffs will pay $100,000 towards the Company’s legal fees incurred in the Celeste case; (4) the Company will support the release of shares of Company Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share, (“Common Stock”) owned of record by Networkland, Inc., a Virginia corporation, (“NET”) and Technet Computer Services, Inc., a Virginia corporation, (“TECH”) to the plaintiffs or their designees (each such block of Common Stock was sought by the plaintiffs in the Celeste case as part of their claims against the Company (collectively, said shares of Common Stock held of record by NET and TECH being referred to as the “N&T Shares”));  (5) the issuance of 350,000 shares of Common Stock owned by Howard Ullman, a director of the Company, to the plaintiffs or their designees; and (6) the granting by Mr. Ullman of a five year option to purchase 20 million shares of Common Stock owned by Mr. Ullman to the plaintiffs or their designees, which option has an exercise price of $0.029 per share.  Under the proposed settlement agreement and release, the Company will grant piggy-back registration rights to the option and underlying shares of Common Stock referenced in (6) above, which rights will be effective after June 1, 2010.  The Company will pay all registration fees and legal costs associated with any such registration, which are currently estimated to be approximately $3,000 to $5,000.
The settlement and release, which consists of a settlement agreement and release and option agreement by Mr. Ullman, was negotiated by Mr. Ullman on behalf of the Company with the plaintiffs. Mr. Ullman has provided case administration of the Celeste case for the Company.
The Company believes that the settlement and release is in the best interests of the Company and its public shareholders because (1) it will, when effective, eliminate the possibility of an adverse ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on the plaintiffs’ appeal, which adverse ruling could potentially impose a significant liability on the Company; and (2) the continuation of the Celeste case may discourage potential investors and funding sources from assisting the Company in financing operations and business development as well as make it more difficult to pursue any possible future merger and acquisition transactions.

NOTE 12 – CONTINGENCIES

CELESTE TRUST REG., ESQUIRE TRADE, ET AL. V. CBQ, INC. (Second Circuit Court of Appeals, Case #07-1701-CV, April 2007; Lower Court Case# 03 Civ. 9650 RMB; US District Court, SDNY, 12/4/2003): Both the initial and amended complaint of the plaintiffs in this case against us were dismissed by the trial court upon our motion to dismiss.  The plaintiffs perfected their appeal of the dismissal of the amended complaint and the appeal was briefed in November 2007.  The appeal is currently pending before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York City. CHDT is uncertain when or how the Second Circuit will rule on the plaintiffs’ appeal.  CHDT has moved that the Second Circuit to make a ruling on the briefs without oral arguments, but CHDT believes that the plaintiffs have requested oral arguments. ��There has been no ruling to date on the overall appeal or CHDT’s motion for a ruling based solely on the written appeal briefs submitted to date.   While CHDT intends to appeal any adverse ruling in this case by the Second Circuit, and CHDT is confident of prevailing in this matter, if the plaintiffs ultimately prevailed in this case and received their requested relief with no further right of appeal by CHDT, the Company lacks the available funds or financing to pay such relief and if a settlement was not possible, in the event of such an adverse outcome,  such an adverse judgment could not be paid from available Company resources.   The New York City office of Dorsey & Whitney currently represents CHDT in this case.

This case concerns a lawsuit that was filed against the Company by three Plaintiffs on or about December 4, 2003, but which the Company did not receive notice of until the week of February 18, 2004 or thereabouts. The Plaintiffs purchased debentures issued by Socrates Technologies Corporation (STC), a public Delaware corporation in 2000. When the Company purchased the assets of two STC subsidiaries in March 2001, the Plaintiffs allege that the Company promised to issue to the Plaintiffs and others the consideration that was to be paid to STC for the acquired assets and to so do in order to compensate the plaintiffs for their investment in the STC debentures, which were apparently in default at that time. The total consideration paid for the STC subsidiaries' assets were 7.65 million shares of company Common Stock and a Promissory Note made by the Company for $700,000 principal amount. The Company has defended against the Plaintiffs' claims to date. If the Plaintiffs win a judgment on their claims, the judgment, if collected, would prove potentially ruinous the Company, unless a settlement involving no cash was arranged between the parties to the lawsuit. The Plaintiff's claims include a claim for receipt of the money due under the Promissory Note with a principal amount of $700,000. The Company lacks the cash flow or cash reserves or funding resources to pay such a claim, either in a lump sum or over time. If the Plaintiffs are awarded the claimed damages against the Company in this lawsuit and the Company did not or could not appeal such an award, then under such circumstances the Company would be unable to pay such damages, either in a lump sum or under any short-term schedule, and would be insolvent without an emergency infusion of capital from investors.

Sun Trust Bank Dispute. Sun Trust Bank line of credit and term note
Prior to being acquired by CHDT, Quantum Technology Group had a $4 million line of credit with Crestar Bank, which was subsequently acquired by Sun Trust. This line of credit was guaranteed by Quantum and five individual guarantors, including Ray Kostkowski, Anne Sigman, Skip Lewis, and Anthony Saunders. This line of credit was opened during April, 2000. On August 8, 2000, the Company acquired all of the shares of Quantum. Sun Trust asserted that $1.3 million of the line of credit had been used, and was owing to Sun Trust, as well as line of credit, a $200,000 term loan from Sun Trust to Quantum, approximately $200,000 in accrued interest and $100,000 in attorney fees -- all of which SunTrust had sought to collect from the individual guarantors. Sun Trust had not sued the Company and has not raised its prior threat to sue since 2005.
