PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS
PASW, Inc., ("PASW", the "Company", "we" and "our"), was incorporated in California in November 1992 as a developer and licensor of Internet and Web related software and software development tools. Our operations are conducted principally from an office in the San Francisco Bay Area of Northern California. We completed an initial public offering of 950,000 units consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant on July 29, 1999. An additional 142,500 units representing the underwriter’s over allotment was sold on September 13, 1999.
We have historically developed and licensed software that enabled Internet and web based communications. Our software products were embedded into systems and developed or manufactured by others.
We refined our strategic focus in the Fourth Quarter 1999 in order to enhance our positioning and flexibility in the rapidly growing market for Internetworking technology and to improve the utilization of our assets and competencies. Key elements of the business strategy involved the segregation of our core technology into separate business units and identifying strategic investment opportunities and/or associations with other operating companies. In conjunction with this strategy at the annual meeting on May 26, 2000 we changed our name to PASW, Inc.
Realizing that general market conditions both in the public and private markets had been deteriorating since late spring 2000 we embarked on an aggressive program to find a suitable merger/acquisition opportunity. On August 31, 2000 the Company and NetSilicon, Inc. ("NSI") entered into an agreement whereby we sold the assets of our Internet and Web software technology to NSI. The purchase price for the assets was 90,000 shares of NSI's common stock. In addition NSI agreed to grant a non-exclusive, royalty-free license for the acquired technology, to PASW and its affiliates, subject to certain limitations.
Alera Systems, Inc.
During 1999 we also established Alera Systems, Inc., formerly iApplianceNet.com ("Alera"), a development stage company and a wholly owned subsidiary. Alera was in the process of developing proprietary technology that would allow potential business customers to greatly improve the management of their distributed remote assets.
In March 2000 we began a private solicitation program and in April a private placement of 140,000 shares of Series A redeemable convertible preferred stock for net proceeds of $350,000 was completed. On August 17, 2000 an additional 20,000 shares were issued for net proceeds of $50,000.
Although Alera continued to meet performance objectives for the development and marketing of its products, capital market conditions deteriorated to the point that the additional private funding required for the Alera program could not be completed. Concurrently, the approximately $2.3 million in NSI stock received from the sale of our Internet and Web software to NetSilicon depreciated by 80% from August 31st to December 31st. This combination of factors materially impacted our ability to continue funding Alera operations and our administrative operations. During December 2000 we closed the administrative office and at the end of December ceased further development operations at Alera.
Proposed Simmons Energy Services Inc. ("SES") Merger
In February 2001, we entered into a letter of intent to acquire the operations of Simmons Energy Services Inc. ("SES"), a privately held Alberta (Canada) company. Under the terms of the proposed transaction, PASW would issue shares of its common stock, Series B preferred stock and Series C convertible preferred stock to acquire SES in a transaction to be accounted for as a reverse acquisition. A definitive combination agreement between PASW and SES was executed in March 2001. A term of the agreement called for PASW to initiate a private placement offering of 5,000,000 units at $4.00 per unit for an aggregate-offering price of $20,000,000. At that time Reg J. Greenslade a director of SES was elected a director of PASW.
On July 18, 2001 the Company was verbally notified by Simmons Energy Services Inc that the efforts by SES to secure the $20 million private placement were not progressing and that it appeared to SES that current market conditions could delay or curtail any future efforts to complete the private placement in time to cure certain NADSAQ deficiencies in a timely manner. SES concluded that it therefore appeared that the Company could face delisting and notified the Company of its intent to terminate the combination agreement. On July 23, 2001 the Company received formal notification from SES of its intent to terminate the agreement.
Appointment of New Director and Chairman
On August 21, 2001 the Board of Directors received the resignation of Reg J. Greenslade as a member of the board of directors. Mr. Greenslade submitted his resignation subsequent to termination of negotiations with Simmons Energy Services Inc citing the need to concentrate his efforts on other business activities. The board nominated Glenn P. Russell to replace Mr. Greenslade and to assume the position of Chairman. Concurrent with Mr. Russell’s election as Chairman William E. Sliney resigned his position as Chairman but continues his positions as President and Chief Financial Officer.
Repricing of Registered Warrants
In March 2001 the Board of Directors announced the repricing of the Company's registered warrants (NASDAQ: PASWW). The exercise price of the warrants was reduced from $7.50 to $4.00 per share. In September 2001 the Board of Directors
F - 2
amended the terms to extend the exercise date to November 30, 2001 and to reduce the price to $1.00 on a pre-reverse split basis. In September 2001 the Board of Directors further amended the terms to reduce the price to twenty-five ($0.25) cents per share and extend the exercise date to November 30, 2002. On November 30, 2002 the warrants expired.
Notification of Delisting from NASDAQ.
In April 2001 NASDAQ notified the Company that at December 31, 2000 it was not in compliance with the Net Tangible Asset requirements of NASDAQ Market Place Rule 4310 (c)(2)(B) in that we failed to have a minimum of $2 million in net tangible assets. At the same time we were notified that in light of the "going concern" opinion from our auditors we may not be able sustain compliance with the continued listing requirements of the NASDAQ Stock Market. In May 2001 the Company was notified that is not in compliance with the minimum bid price requirements of NASDAQ Market Place Rule 4310(c)(8)(B) in that the closing bid price of the Company's common stock did not meet or exceed $1.00 over 30 consecutive trading days. The Company was given until August 22, 2001 to achieve compliance. At September 30, 2001 the Company was not in compliance with any of the rules and, although notification has not been received from NASDAQ , the Company believes it is not in compliance with Market Place Rule 4310(c)(7) in that it has not maintained a minimum market value of public float of $1,000,000 over 30 consecutive trading days. On October 1, 2001 we received notification from The NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. that we were not in compliance with the Net Tangible Assets or Net Equity requirements for continued listing as set forth in Market Place Rule 4310(c)(2)(B) as modified by SR-NASD-01-14 and that its securities will be delisted from The NASDAQ National/Small Cap Market at the opening of business on October 9, 2001. The securities were removed form NASDAQ and subsequent to that date the PASW Common Stock (PASW) has been trading on the OTC Bulletin Board Market (OTCBB) as were the Warrants (PASWW) until their expiration on November 30, 2002.
Conversion of Preferred Stock in Subsidiary to PASW Common Stock
On October 19, 2001 the Company converted 480,000 shares of Convertible Preferred Stock of its Alera Systems Inc. ("Alera"), a wholly owned subsidiary, to shares of the Company’s Common Stock. The preferred stock was issued in April and July 2000 as part of a private placement to provide funding for the Alera technology development activities. Each share of preferred is convertible into one share of Alera at $2.50 per share at any time within two years from closing date of the private placement or, if Alera did not become a public company or be sold to an outside party within this two year period, the holders of the preferred stock would be entitled to exchange their preferred shares into shares of PASW common stock at Eighty-five percent (85%) of its then current market price subject to a collar limit of One Dollar ($1.00) per share and a maximum of Fifteen Dollars ($15.00) per share. Operations of Alera wer e terminated in December 2000 and subsequently all preferred shareholders elected to convert in 2001 at One Dollar
F - 3
per share. The conversion increase’s the outstanding common shares of PASW from 4,517,400 to 4,997,400.
Sale of Network Research Corporation – Japan Distribution Business ("NRCJ")
Our NRCJ subsidiary is a distributor for products supplied by Net Silicon, Inc. Revenue from licenses of the suite of Internet and Web products and sales of services accounted for substantially all of its revenue in the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. In July 2002 Net Silicon ceased producing products used by NRCJ. During the remainder of 2002 the sales of licenses of the subsidiary decreased to a point where operations became unprofitable. On January 31, 2003 the Company sold the operating assets and certain liabilities of the NRCJ distribution business to Network Technology, Inc., a new company formed by the former employees of NRCJ, for 1.0 million Japanese Yen (US $8,400). NRCJ will continue to receive royalty income from former NRCJ customer
Related Party Transaction
During 2001, a company controlled by the spouse of the principal shareholder of the Company advanced $32,075 in the form of a non interest bearing demand note. The note was repaid in September 2004.
Change of Accountants
The Company used the services of Merdinger, Fruchter, Rosen & Co. ("MFRC") as its independent accountant since 1996. In January 2003 the Company was informed by MRFC that it was exiting the business of auditing publicly traded companies. The Company selected Skeehan & Company as its new auditor effective February 27, 2003. The Company’s Board of Directors recommended and approved the change in the Company’s certifying accountants.
In December 2005, the Company was notified by Skeehan & Company that is was exiting the business of auditing publicly traded companies. The Company selected Farber, Hass, Hurley & McEwen, LLP as its new auditor effective February 22, 2006. The Company’s Board of Directors recommended and approved the change in the Company’s certifying accountants.
Operating Companies
We operate through a parent company and one wholly owned subsidiary: Alera Systems, Inc ("Alera"). We operate in one business segment and our fiscal year ends December 31.
Employees
As of December 31, 2005 the Company has no active employees. However, one individual who is an officer of the Company receives a management fee for services rendered to maintain administrative operations. We are not represented by a labor union
F - 4

ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
PASW conducts its operations from a business office located in San Ramon, California. We believe that these facilities are adequate for our current needs at this time.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are not currently involved in any litigation that is expected to have a material adverse effect on our business or financial position. There can be no assurance, however, that third parties will not assert infringement or other claims against the Company in the future which, regardless of the outcome, could have an adverse impact on the Company as a result of defense costs, diversion of management resources and other factors.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

Each share of preferred is convertible into one share of Alera at $2.50 per share at any time within two years from closing date of the private placement or, if Alera did not become a public company or be sold to an outside party within this two year period, the holders of the preferred stock would be entitled to exchange their preferred shares into shares of PASW common stock at Eighty-five percent (85%) of its then current market price subject to a collar limit of One Dollar ($1.00) per share and a maximum of Fifteen Dollars ($15.00) per share. Operations of Alera we re terminated in December 2000 and subsequently all preferred shareholders elected to convert in 2001 at One Dollar per share.

ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSISION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Form 10KSB. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those discussed in "Risk Factors" and elsewhere in this document. Except for historical information contained herein, the statements in this report (including without limitation, statements indicating that the Company "expects," "estimates," anticipates," or "believes" and all other statements concerning future financial results, product offerings, proposed acquisitions or combinations or other events that have not yet occurred) are forward-looki ng statements that are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown factors, risks and uncertainties, which may cause the Company’s actual results in future periods to differ materially from forecasted results.
Introduction
PASW was incorporated in California in November 1992 as a developer and licensor of Internet and Web related software and software development tools. We completed an initial public offering of 950,000 units consisting of one share of common stock and one warrant on July 29, 1999. An additional 142,500 units representing the underwriter’s over allotment was sold on September 13, 1999. We developed and sold software development tools until August 2000. At that time we sold all of our development activities to another company while maintaining a sales office in Japan. In December 2002 we closed the Japanese office but we continue to receive royalty income from a single customer in Japan. Our remaining administrative operations are conducted principally from an office in the San Francisco Bay Area of Northern California.

Net income | 32.64 | 56.58 |
Other comprehensive unrealized gains and (losses) and foreign currency translation | (3.78) | (15.06) |
Comprehensive gain | 28.86% | 41.52% |
All of the Company’s 2004 and 2005 revenues were derived from royalties in Japan.
Results of Operations
Our net revenues from continuing operations increased 7% to $213,014 in 2005 from $199,517 in 2004. All of the revenue consists of royalty income received from Japan. Since all of the revenue was in the form of royalties we had no cost of sales in 2005 and 2004. Selling, general and administrative expense decreased 1% to $135,403 in 2005 compared to $136,148 in 2004. The decrease in expense in 2005 represented slightly lower operations of our corporate office in California. We had depreciation of $703 in 2005 and none 2004. In 2005 we had $42,915 in other income up from $4,155 in 2004. During 2001 the Company accrued certain expenses in anticipation of possible charges for goods and services. The charges did not materialize; therefore in 2005 the Company reversed the accruals.
F - 8
Liquidity and capital resources
At December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 we had working capital of $ 213,461 and $129,905 and cash of $268,271 and $190,048. We generated $112,831 in cash flow from operating activities for 2005 compared $40,607 for 2004. The increase in cash of $72,224 was the result of an increase in net profit for the year of $55,400, a reduction in accounts payable of $19,693, a decrease in accounts receivable of $8,897 and prepaid expenses of $2,400. Cash generated or used in operating activities principally reflect the increase from operations and the related changes in working capital components. We had no investing activities of $2,529 in 2005 and none in 2004. During 2004 we repaid a note to a related party of $32,075 there were no financing activities in 2005.
Critical Accounting Policies
The Corporation's accounting policies are described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Future events and their effects cannot be determined with absolute certainty. Therefore, the determination of estimates requires the exercise of judgment. Actual results inevitably will differ from those estimates, and such differences may be material to the financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
Our only source of revenue comes from a royalty license agreement with a single customer in Japan. We invoice the customer monthly based on units sold and recognize the revenue at the time that it is earned.
Translation of Foreign Currency
We translate foreign currency financial statements in accordance with SFAS 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." Assets and liabilities are translated at current exchange rates and related revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component in stockholders’ equity. Since foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in determining net income any fluctuations in the value of the Japanese Yen and the US Dollar impact the values of our royalty income and the asset values recorded in the Japanese operation.
Concentration of Credit Risk
We place our cash in what we believe to be credit-worthy financial institutions in the US and Japan. However, cash balances may exceed maximum insured levels in both countries at various times during the year. Furthermore, 100% of our accounts receivable are derived from one customer in Japan.
F - 9
Factors That May Affect Future Results
This report, including Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation, contains forward-looking statements and other prospective information relating to future events. These forward-looking statements and other information are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause results to differ materially from historical or anticipated results, including the following:
We received a Going Concern opinion from our auditors on our financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Those statements indicate that although we reported positive cash flows from operations in 2005, and 2004 we have incurred significant operating losses to date. Our only operating subsidiary, NRCJ, sold all its revenue producing assets in 2003 and there is no assurance that the remaining royalty income is sufficient to allow us to continue operations.
We reported a gain of $120,524 in 2005, $65,124 in 2004 and $70,032 in 2003 but sustained losses of ($37,093) in 2002 and ($1,306,954) in 2001. We also have an accumulated deficit of ($6,147,083) and a stockholders' equity of $218,350 as of December 31, 2005. We can provide no assurance we will be profitable in the future and if we do not become profitable our business could be adversely affected.
We were delisted by the NASDAQ Stock Market on October 9, 2001 and our stock has been trading on the OTC Bulletin Board Market (OTCBB) since that time.
The NASDAQ National/Small Cap Market delisted our stock at the opening of business on October 9, 2001. The securities were removed from NASDAQ and subsequent to that date the PASW Common Stock traded on the OTC Bulletin Board Market (OTCBB) as were the Warrants (PASWW) until their expiration on November 30, 2002. While we still have market makers for our securities there can be no assurance we can continue to rely on our current market makers and that the price and trading volume of our securities could not be materially affected.
Our only operating subsidiary lost its major supplier of product in July 2002.
Our NRCJ subsidiary is a distributor for products supplied by NSI. Revenue from licenses of the suite of Internet and Web products and sales of services accounted for substantially all of its revenue in the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. In July 2002 Net Silicon ceased producing products used by NRCJ. During the remainder of 2002 the sales of licenses of the subsidiary decreased to a point where operations became unprofitable. The operations were sold in January 2003. There is no assurance that the remaining royalty income is sufficient to allow the Company to continue operations.
F - 10
We have limited resources available to continue operations unless a successful transaction is completed with a merger partner or that additional funding can be obtained from outside sources.
At the present time we have limited resources available to continue operations other than maintaining day-to-day activities without any capabilities for expansion. The revenue received from royalties of our NRCJ subsidiary is sufficient to handle only maintenance administrative operations for the Company. While efforts are in process to seek a merger partner or other means of financing there is no assurance that any means can be obtained to permit the Company to resume any form of operations which could expand the business.
Because our ownership is concentrated, our officers and directors and independently our majority stockholder will be able to control all matters requiring stockholder approval including delaying or preventing a change in our corporate control or taking other actions of which individual shareholders may disapprove.
Our officers, directors and independently the majority stockholder beneficially own approximately 60% of our outstanding common stock. These parties will be able to exercise control over all matters requiring stockholder approval and other investors will have minimal influence over the election of directors or other stockholder actions. As a result, our officers, directors and independently the majority stockholder could approve or cause the Company to take actions of which you disapprove or that are contrary to your interests.
Issuance of our authorized preferred stock could discourage a change in control, could reduce the market price of our common stock and could result in the holders of preferred stock being granted voting rights that are superior to those of the holders of common stock.
The Company is authorized to issue preferred stock without obtaining the consent or approval of stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control. Management also has the right to grant superior voting rights to the holders of preferred stock. Any issuance of preferred stock could materially and adversely affect the market price of the common stock and the voting rights of the holders of common stock. The issuance of preferred stock may also result in the loss of the voting control of holders of common stock to the holders of preferred stock.
Trading in our common stock and warrants may be limited and could negatively affect the ability to sell your securities.
A public market for our common stock and our warrants has only existed since July 29, 1999, the date of our initial public offering. Our warrants expired on November 30, 2000 and we do not know how liquid the market for our stock will remain and if the market becomes illiquid, it may negatively affect your ability to resell your securities.

ITEM 8A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participating of our Chief Executive and Financial Officers, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-14(c) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), within 90 days of the filing of this report. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive and Financial Officers concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports under the Exchange Act are processed and reported within the time periods specified by law. The design of any such system of controls is based in part on assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any such system of controls will succeed in all circumstances.
Since the date of the evaluation described above, there have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
Board of Directors and Shareholders
PASW, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of PASW, Inc.
(the "Company") as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for the year then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company has determined that it 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 includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audi t also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of PASW, Inc. as of December 31, 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has limited sources of revenue and has incurred significant operating losses in prior years. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also described in Note 11. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
PASW (the Company) was incorporated in California in November 1992 as a developer and licensor of Internet and Web related software and software development tools. The Company developed and sold software development tools until August 2000. At that time the Company sold all its development activities to another company while maintaining a sales office in Japan. In December 2002 the Company closed the Japanese office but continues to receive royalty income from a single customer in Japan. The remaining administrative operations are conducted principally from an office in the San Francisco Bay Area of Northern California.
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PASW, Inc. ("PASW" or the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries:
·
Network Research Corp. Japan, Ltd. ("NRCJ");
·
Alera Systems, Inc. ("Alera"), formerly iApplianceNet.com ("iAppliance"), a California Corporation;
·
Pacific Acquisition Corporation ("PAC"), a California Corporation; and
·
PASW Europe Limited ("Europe"), a United Kingdom Corporation.
All references herein to PASW or the "Company" include the consolidated results of PASW and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.
Alera, PAC and Europe were inactive in 2005 and 2004.
Use of Estimates
Preparing 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.
F - 8
PASW, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Revenue Recognition
The Company generates all revenue from a royalty license agreement with a single customer in Japan. Generally, income is recognized when earned.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions. However, cash balances may exceed FDIC insured levels at various times during the year.
The Company’s accounts receivable are derived from one customer.
Accounts Receivable
For financial reporting purposes, PASW uses the allowance method of accounting for doubtful accounts. PASW performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and, if required, maintains an allowance for potential credit losses. The allowance is based on an experience factor and review of current accounts receivable. Uncollectible accounts are written off against the allowance accounts when deemed uncollectible. No accounts were deemed uncollectible at December 31, 2005 or 2004.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, primarily on a straight-line basis. The estimated lives used in determining depreciation are five to seven years for furniture, fixtures and computer equipment. Purchased computer software costs are amortized over five years.
Maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred; additions and betterments are capitalized. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation of the disposed assets are removed and any resulting gain or loss is recorded.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2005 AND 2004
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the highly liquid nature of these short-term instruments at December 31, 2005 and 2004. The fair value of the shareholder advances cannot be determined due to the related party nature of the obligation.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. Recovery of assets to be held and used is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less the cost to sell.
Income Taxes
Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled as prescribed by Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes.
Translation of Foreign Currency
The Company translates foreign currency financial statements of NRCJ in accordance with SFAS 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." Assets and liabilities are translated at current exchange rates and related revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates in effect during the period. Resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a separate component in stockholders’ equity. Foreign currency transaction gains and losses are included in determining net income.

Stock-Based Compensation
PASW uses the intrinsic value method of accounting for stock-based compensation for employees in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 25.
Earnings Per Share
SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share" requires presentation of basic earnings per share ("Basic EPS") and diluted earnings per share ("Diluted EPS"). Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. The computation of diluted EPS does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on losses.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R (Revised 2004), “Share-Based Payments” (SFAS 123R). SFAS 123R requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their fair values. The Company is required to adopt the new standard in the first interim period beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 123R to have a material effect on its financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets,” an amendment of APB Opinion 29 (“SFAS 153”). SFAS 153 requires that exchanges of nonmonetary assets be measured based on the fair values of the assets exchanged, and eliminates the exception to this principle under APB Opinion 29 for exchanges of similar productive assets. The Company is required to adopt the new standard in the fist interim period beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 153 to have a material effect on its financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, “Inventory Costs,” an amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4 (“SFAS 151”). SFAS 151 clarifies that abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs, and wasted materials should be recognized as current period charges and requires the allocation of fixed production overheads to inventory based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. The Company is required to adopt the new standard in the fiscal year beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 151 to have a material effect on its financial statements.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
In March 2005, the FASB issues Interpretation No 47 (“Fin 47”), “Accounting for Conditional Asset Retirement Obligations”. This Interpretation clarifies that the term conditional asset retirement obligations as used in FASB Statement 143, Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations, refers to a legal obligation to perform an asset retirement activity in which the timing and (or) method of settlement are conditional over a future event that may or may not be within the control of the entity. The obligation to perform the asset retirement is unconditional even though the uncertainty exists about the timing and (or) method of settlement. Thus, the timing and (or) method of settlement may be conditional on a future event. Accordingly, an entity is required to recognize a liability for the fair value of a conditional asset retirement obligation if the fair value of the liability can be reasonably estimated. The fair valu e of the liability for the conditional asset retirement obligation should be recognized when incurred generally upon acquisition, construction, development and (or) through the normal operation of the asset. Uncertainty about the timing and (or) method of settlement of a conditional asset retirement obligation should be factored into the measurement of the liability when sufficient information exists. Statement 143 acknowledges that in some cases sufficient information may not be available to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. This interpretation also clarifies when an entity would have sufficient information to reasonably estimate the fair value of an asset retirement obligation. This interpretation is effective no later than the end of the fiscal years ending after December 15, 2005 (December 31, 2005 for calendar-year enterprises). Retrospective application for interim financial information is permitted but is not required. Early adoption of this Interpretation is encour aged. Management believes the adoption of this Statement will have no impact on the financial statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issues SFAS No 154 Accounting Changes And Error Corrections. This Statement replaces AFB Opinion No 20, Accounting Changes and FASS Statement No 3, Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial statements, and changes the requirement for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle. This Statement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle. It also applies to changes required by an accounting pronouncement in the unusual instance that the pronouncement does not include specific transition provisions. When a pronouncement includes specific provisions, those provisions should be followed. Opinion 20 previously required that most voluntary changes in accounting principle be recognized by including in net income of the period of the change the cumulative effect of changing to the new accounting principle. This Statement requires

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of changes of accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to determine either the period-specific effects or the cumulative effect of the change. This statement defines retrospective application as the application of a different accounting principle to prior accounting periods as if that principle had always been used or as the adjustment of previously issued financial statements to reflect a change in the reporting entity. This Statement also redefines restatement as the revising of previously issued financial statements to reflect the correction of an error. This Statement requires that retrospective application of a change in accounting principle be limited to the direct effects of the change. Indirect effects of a change in accounting principle, such as a change in nondiscretionary profit-sharing payments resulting in an accounting change should be recognized in the per iod of the accounting change. This Statement is effective for accounting changes and correction of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. Management believes the adoption of this Statement will have no impact on the financial statements of the Company.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES (Continued)
The reconciliation of the effective income tax rate to the Federal statutory rate is as follows:
December 31, | ||
2005 | 2004 | |
Federal income tax rate Surtax exemption | 35.0% (10.0) | 35.0% (10.0) |
Effect of valuation allowance State taxes | (25.0) 0 | (25.0) 3.6 |
Effective income tax rate | 0% | 3.6% |
At December 31, 2005, the Company had a net carryforward operating loss of approximately $4,544,000. A valuation allowance equal to the tax benefit for deferred taxes was established due to the uncertainty of realizing the benefits of the tax carryforward. Any merger or acquisition by another company would significantly reduce utilization of the net operating loss carryforward.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net tax effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components the Company’s deferred tax assets (liabilities) are as follows:
December 31, | ||
2005 | 2004 | |
Non-current deferred tax assets (liabilities): | ||
Loss carryforwards | $ 1,100,000 | $ 1,136,155 |
Less: valuation allowance | (1,100,000) | (1,136,155) |
Net deferred tax assets (liabilities) | $ | $ |

The net operating loss carryforwards begin to expire in 2019.
NOTE 9 - EARNINGS PER SHARE
Securities that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because their effect would have been antidilutive, are as follows:
December 31, | ||
| 2005 | 2004 |
Warrants and Options | 1,202,674 | 1,202,674 |
Total shares | 1,202,674 | 1,202,674 |
NOTE 10 – ACCRUED EXPENSES
During 2001 the Company accrued certain expenses in anticipation of possible charges for goods and services. The charges did not materialize; therefore in 2005 the Company reversed the accruals.
NOTE 11 - GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements were prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the PSI as a going concern. Although the Company had positive cash flows in 2005, it had net operating losses of $6,136,222 since inception. The Company’s only operating subsidiary NRCJ sold all its revenue producing assets in 2003 and there is no assurance that the remaining royalty income is sufficient to allow the Company to continue operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In view of the matters described above, the Company is dependent on its ability to raise sufficient capital to fund its working capital requirements until the Company can generate sufficient sales volume to cover its operating expenses. As of December 31, 2005, the Company is actively seeking a reverse merger candidate.
