SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS


The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) encourages companies to disclose forward-looking information so that investors can better understand future prospects and make informed investment decisions.  This report contains these types of statements.  Words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” or “continue” or comparable terminology used in connection with any discussion of future operating results or financial performance identify forward-looking statements.  You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report.  All forward-looking statements reflect our present expectation of future events and are subject to a number of important factors and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements.

PART I


ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


Historical Development


Globalwise Investments, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Utah on October 3, 1997, to engage in the confectionary vending machine business.  On July 12, 2000, Globalwise Investments, Inc. was incorporated in the state of Nevada and on July 21, 2000, Globalwise Utah merged with Globalwise Nevada for the sole purpose of changing our domicile from the state of Utah to the state of Nevada.


Our Plan


We are a development stage company and have had recurring operating losses for the past two fiscal years.  Our independent auditors have expressed doubt that we can continue as a going concern unless we obtain financing to continue operations. Our business plan is to seek, investigate, and, if warranted, acquire an interest in a business opportunity to create necessary operating revenue.  


Our acquisition of a business opportunity may be made by merger, exchange of stock, or otherwise.  We have very limited sources of capital, and we probably will only be able to take advantage of one business opportunity.  As of  the date of this filing we have not identified any business opportunity that we plan to pursue, nor have we reached any preliminary or definitive agreements or understandings with any person concerning an acquisition or merger.


Based on current economic and regulatory conditions, management believes that it is possible, if not probable, for a company like ours, without many assets or liabilities, to negotiate a merger or acquisition with a viable private company.  The opportunity arises principally because of the expensive legal and accounting fees and the length of time associated with the registration process of “going public.”  However, should any of these conditions change, it is very possible that there would be little or no economic value for anyone taking over control of Globalwise.  


Our search for a business opportunity will not be limited to any particular geographical area or industry, including both United States and international companies.  Our management has unrestricted discretion in seeking and participating in a business opportunity, subject to the availability of such opportunities, economic conditions and other factors.  Our management believes that companies who desire a public market to enhance liquidity for current stockholders, or plan to acquire additional assets through issuance of securities rather than for cash, will be potential merger or acquisition candidates.  


The selection of a business opportunity in which to participate is complex and extremely risky and will be made by management in the exercise of its business judgement.  Our activities are subject to several significant risks which arise primarily as a result of the fact that we have no specific business and may acquire or participate in a business opportunity based on the decision of management which will, in all probability, act without consent, vote, or approval of our stockholders.  We can not assure you that we will be able to identify and acquire any business opportunity which will ultimately prove to be beneficial to us and our stockholders.  Should a merger or acquisition prove unsuccessful, it is possible management may decide not to pursue further acquisition activities and management may abandon our search and we may become dormant or be dissolved.


It is possible that the range of business opportunities that might be available for consideration by us could be limited by impact of the SEC regulations regarding purchase and sale of “penny stock.”  Our common stock is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board, but there is little market activity at this time.  We cannot assure you that a market will develop or that a stockholder will be able to liquidate his/her/its investments without considerable delay, if at all.  If a market develops, our shares will likely be subject to the rules of the Penny Stock Suitability Reform Act of 1990. The liquidity of penny stock is affected by specific disclosure procedures required by this Act to be followed by all broker-dealers, including but not limited to, determining the suitability of the stock for a particular customer, and obtaining a written agreement from the customer to purchase the stock.  This rule may affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and may affect the ability of purchasers to sell our securities in any market.

Investigation and Selection of Business Opportunities


We anticipate that business opportunities will come to our attention from various sources, including our officers and directors, our stockholders, professional advisors, such as attorneys and accountants, securities broker-dealers, investment banking firms, venture capitalists, members of the financial community and others who may present unsolicited proposals.  Management expects that prior personal and business relationships may lead to contacts for business opportunities; however, we have not entered into any direct or indirect negotiations at the time of this filing with any person, corporation or other entity regarding any possible business reorganization involving Globalwise.


Our management will analyze the business opportunities; however, none of our management are professional business analysts.  (See Part III, Item 9, below. )  Our management has had limited experience with mergers and acquisitions of business opportunities and has not been involved with an initial public offering.  Potential investors must recognize that due to our management’s inexperience in mergers and acquisitions we may not adequately evaluate a potential business opportunity.


Certain conflicts of interest exist or may develop between Globalwise and our officers and directors.  Our management has other business interests to which they currently devote attention, which include their primary employment and they are management of other development stage reporting companies seeking merger candidates.  Our management may be expected to continue to devote their attention to these other business interests although management time should be devoted to our business.  As a result, conflicts of interest may arise that can be resolved only through their exercise of judgement in a manner which is consistent with their fiduciary duties to us.


A decision to participate in a specific business opportunity may be made upon our management’s analysis of:

$

the quality of the business opportunity’s management and personnel,

$

the anticipated acceptability of its new products or marketing concept,

$

the merit of its technological changes,

$

the perceived benefit that it will derive from becoming a publicly held entity, and

$

numerous other factors which are difficult, if not impossible, to analyze through the application of any objective criteria.  


No one factor described above will be controlling in the selection of a business opportunity.  Management will attempt to analyze all factors appropriate to each opportunity and make a determination based upon reasonable investigative measures and available data.  Potential business opportunities may occur in many different industries and at various stages of development.  Thus, the task of comparative investigation and analysis of such business opportunities will be extremely difficult and complex.  Potential investors must recognize that because of our limited capital available for investigation and management’s limited experience in business analysis, we may not discover or adequately evaluate adverse facts about the business opportunity to be acquired.


In many instances, we anticipate that the historical operations of a specific business opportunity may not necessarily be indicative of the potential for the future because of the possible need to substantially shift marketing approaches, significantly expand operations, change product emphasis, change or substantially augment management, or make other changes.  We will be dependent upon the owners of a business opportunity to identify any such problems which may exist and to implement, or be primarily responsible for, the implementation of required changes.  


Form of Acquisition


We cannot predict the manner in which we may participate in a business opportunity. Specific business opportunities will be reviewed as well as our needs and desires and those of the promoters of the opportunity.  The legal structure or method deemed by management to be suitable will be selected based upon our review and our relative negotiating strength. Such methods may include, but are not limited to, leases, purchase and sale agreements, licenses, joint ventures and other contractual arrangements.  We may act directly or indirectly through an interest in a partnership, corporation or other forms of organization.  We may be required to merge, consolidate or reorganize with other corporations or forms of business organizations.  In addition, our present management and stockholders most likely will not have control of a majority of our voting shares following a merger or reorganization transaction. As part of such a transaction, our existing directors may resign and new directors may be appointed without any vote by our stockholders.








4




We likely will acquire our participation in a business opportunity through the issuance of common stock or other securities.  Although the terms of any such transaction cannot be predicted, it should be noted that issuance of additional shares might also may be done simultaneously with a sale or transfer of shares representing a controlling interest by current principal stockholders.  


In the event we merge or acquire a business opportunity, the successor company will be subject to our reporting obligations.  This is commonly referred to as a “back door registration.”  A back door registration occurs when a non-reporting company becomes the successor of a reporting company by merger, consolidation, exchange of securities, acquisition of assets or otherwise.  This type of event requires the successor company to file a current report with the SEC which provides the same kind of information about the company to be acquired that would appear in a registration statement, including audited and pro forma financial statements.  Accordingly, we may incur additional expense to conduct due diligence and present the required information for the business opportunity in any report.  Also, the SEC may elect to conduct a full review of the successor company and may issue substantive comments on the sufficiency of disclosure related to the company to be acquired.


Competition


We expect to encounter substantial competition in our effort to locate attractive opportunities.  Business development companies, venture capital partnerships and corporations, venture capital affiliates of large industrial and financial companies, small investment companies, and wealthy individuals will be our primary competition. Many of these entities will have significantly greater experience, resources and managerial capabilities than we do and will be in a better position than we are to obtain access to attractive business opportunities.  We also will experience competition from other public development stage companies, many of which may have more funds available.


Employees


We currently have no employees.  Our management expects to confer with consultants, attorneys and accountants as necessary.  We do not anticipate a need to engage any full-time employees so long as we are seeking and evaluating business opportunities.


ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY


We do not currently own or lease any property.  Until we pursue a viable business opportunity and recognize income, we will not seek office space.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


We are not a party to any proceedings or threatened proceedings as of the date of this filing.


ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS


We have not submitted a matter to a vote of our shareholders during the fourth quarter of the 2006 fiscal year.


PART II


ITEM 5: MARKET PRICE FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS


Market Information


Our common stock is listed on the OTC Bulletin Board and trades under the symbol “GWIV.”  We have had little market activity in our common stock as of the date of this filing.  The following table presents the range of the high and low bid prices of our stock as reported by the OTC Bulletin Board.  These quotations represent prices between dealers and may not include retail markups, markdowns, or commissions and may not necessarily represent actual transactions.

Holders and Dividends


As of February 22, 2007, we had approximately 35 stockholders of record, which does not include shares held by shareholders in “street accounts” of securities brokers.  We have not declared dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.

None.   


ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION


We are a development stage company and have recorded losses since our inception.  Our independent accounting firm has expressed doubt that we can continue as a going concern unless we obtain financing.  At December 31, 2006, we had $2,757 in cash and total liabilities of $49,595.  Our liabilities are related to legal, accounting and professional services required to prepare and file our reports with the SEC.  We are unable to pay cash for these services and have historically relied on related parties to pay for these costs on our behalf.  These parties have not entered into written agreements guaranteeing funds and, therefore, these parties are not obligated to provide funds in the future.  We may pay for these advances by converting the debt into common stock.


Our plan for the next twelve months is to search for a business opportunity and, if feasible, acquire an interest in a business opportunity.  If we obtain a business opportunity, then it may be necessary to raise additional capital.  We likely will sell our common stock to raise this additional capital.  We expect to issue such stock pursuant to exemptions provided by federal and state securities laws.  The purchasers and manner of issuance will be determined according to our financial needs and the available exemptions.  We do not currently intend to make a public offering of our stock.  We also note that if we issue more shares of our common stock, then our shareholders may experience dilution in the value per share of their common stock.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements


None.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

of Globalwise Investments, Inc.:


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Globalwise Investments, Inc. (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended and from inception, October 3, 1997 (inception), through December 31, 2006.  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 P.C.A.O.B. (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.   The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting.  Our 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 presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Globalwise Investments, Inc.  (a development stage company) as of December 31, 2006 and 2005 and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 and from October 3, 1997 (inception) through December 31, 2006 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has suffered recurring losses from operations which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 2.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


a.

Organization & Consolidation Policy


Globalwise Investments, Inc. (the Company), a Nevada corporation, was incorporated October 3, 1997.   The Company was organized for the purpose of engaging in the confectionary vending machine business.  It is currently inactive.


b.

Recognition of Revenue


 

The Company has adopted the provisions of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, REVENUE RECOGNITION IN FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (“SAB 104"), which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue in financial statements filed with the SEC.  SAB 104 outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies.  In general, the Company recognizes revenue related to monthly services provided when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable and (iv) collect ability is reasonably assured.

Notes to the Financial Statements

December 31, 2006 and 2005


NOTE 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)


e.

Provision for Income Taxes


No provision for income taxes have been recorded due to net operating loss carryforwards totaling  $75,182 that will be offset against future taxable income.  These NOL carryforwards begin to expire in the year 2018.  No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carryforward will expire unused.


Deferred tax asset and the valuation account is as follows at December 31, 2006 and 2005:

Deferred tax asset:

$       22,487 

Valuation allowance

(25,562)

(22,487)

 

$                 - 

$                 - 


The Company utilized the liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under the liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are provided based on the difference between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities measured by the currently enacted tax rates in effect for the years in which these differences are expected to reverse.  Deferred tax expense or benefit is the result of changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities.


f.  Use of estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


NOTE 2 - Going Concern


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  The Company has no assets and has had recurring operating losses for the past several years and is dependent upon financing to continue operations.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  It is management’s plan to find an operating company to merge with, thus creating necessary operating revenue.

December 31, 2006 and 2005


NOTE 6 - Recent Pronouncements (Continued)


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS” (“SFAS”).   While SFAS 157 formally defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure about fair value measurements, it does not require any new fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.  SFAS 157 is required to be adopted effective January 1, 2008 and the Company does not presently anticipate any impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.


In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, “EMPLOYERS’ ACCOUNTING FOR DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT PLANS - AN AMENDMENT OF FASB STATEMENTS NO. 87, 88, 106 AND 132 (R)” (“SFAS 158").  SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize the funded status of its defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in the funded status in the year in which the changes occur through other comprehensive income.  The funded status of a plan is measured as the difference between plan assets as fair value and the benefit obligation, which is represented by the projected benefit obligation for pension plans and the accumulated portretirement benefit obligation for other postretirement plans.  SFAS 158 requires the recognition, as a component of other comprehensive income, net of tax, of the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits that arise during the period but are recognized as a component of net periodic benefit cost in accordance with existing accounting principles.


Amounts required to be recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income, including gains and losses and prior service costs or credits are adjusted as they are subsequently recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost pursuant to the recognition and amortization provisions of existing accounting principles.  In addition, SFAS 158 requires plan assets and obligations to be measured as of the date of the employer’s year-end statement of financial position as well as the disclosure of additional information about certain effects on net periodic benefit cost for the next fiscal year from the delayed recognition of the gains or losses and prior service costs or credits.


The Company is required to adopt those provisions of SFAS 158 attributable to the initial recognition of the funded status of the benefit plans and disclosure provisions as of December 31, 2006.  Those provisions of SFAS 158 applicable to the amortization of gains or losses and prior service costs or credits from accumulated other comprehensive income to the net periodic benefit cost are required to be applied on a prospective basis effective January 1, 2007.  The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 158 will have any impact on its financial statements.

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


During the two most recent fiscal years we have not had a change in, or disagreement with, our independent registered public accounting firm.


ITEM 8A.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our filings under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC.  This information is accumulated to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Our President, who acts in the capacities of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on that evaluation, he concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.


He also determined that there were no changes made in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2006 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.


ITEM 8B. OTHER INFORMATION


None.

Audit Committee


Because we have minimal operations we do not have an audit committee serving at this time, nor do we have an audit committee financial expert serving on an audit committee.  Our entire board acts as our audit committee.


Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.


Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, executive officers and persons who own more than five percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and our other equity securities.  Officers, directors and greater than ten-percent beneficial owners are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.  We believe no reports were required to be filed for the year ended December 31, 2006.


Code of Ethics


Due to the fact that we have minimal operations, we have not adopted a code of ethics for our principal executive and financial officers.  Our board of directors will revisit this issue in the future to determine if adoption of a code of ethics is appropriate.  In the meantime, our management intends to promote honest and ethical conduct, full and fair disclosure in our reports to the SEC, and compliance with applicable governmental laws and regulations.



ITEM 10. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION



Executive Officer Compensation


Our President, Donald R. Mayer, who serves in a capacity similar to principal executive officer, did not receive compensation during the year ended December 31, 2006.  None of our other named executive officers received any cash or non-cash compensation during the past fiscal year or had outstanding equity awards at year end.  We have not entered into employment contracts with our executive officers and their compensation, if any, will be determined at the discretion of our Board of Directors.


Retirement or Change of Control Arrangements


We do not offer retirement benefit plans to our executive officers, nor have we entered into any contract, agreement, plan or arrangement, whether written or unwritten, that provides for payments to a named executive officer at or in connection with the resignation, retirement or other termination of a named executive officer, or a change in control of the company or a change in the named executive officer’s responsibilities following a change in control.  


Compensation of Directors


We do not have any standard arrangement for compensation of our directors for any services provided as director, including services for committee participation or for special assignments.

Tax fees represent professional services rendered by the accounting firm for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning.  All other fees represent fees billed for products and services provided by the accounting firm, other than the services reported for the other categories.


Pre-approval Policies


We do not have an audit committee currently serving and as a result our board of directors performs the duties of an audit committee.  Our board of directors will evaluate and approve in advance the scope and cost of the engagement of an auditor.  We do not rely on pre-approval policies and procedures.
