BUSINESS
 
Overview

Corporate History

Euro Trend Inc. was incorporated on March 27, 2007 under the laws of the State of Nevada intending to commence business operations by distributing high-end European made designer clothing in mass wholesale and retail markets throughout Western Europe, Canada and the United States of America. On October 20, 2008 we completed a Share Exchange Agreement whereby we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock and ownership interests of Data Storage Corporation. In exchange we issued 83,687,500 shares of our common stock and 1,401,786 shares a Series A Preferred Stock to the Data Storage Shareholders.
 
Description of Data Storage

Data Storage Corporation (“Data Storage” or “DSC”) was incorporated in Delaware on August 29, 2001. Data Storage develops and manages customized, powerful, premium solutions for data protection including: Storage Infrastructure Design and Management, Business Continuity Planning and Disaster Recovery, Virtualization, Archiving, Disk and Transaction Mirroring, and Internet Services..

Data Storage derives revenues from the sale of solutions that provide businesses protection of critical electronic data. At this time, these services consist primarily of offsite data backup and de-duplication for disaster recovery and business continuity purposes. We have operations in a non-collocated datacenter in Westbury, New York and a disaster recovery facility which is located over 1,000 miles away from the primary data center in Westbury, leveraging another non-collocated facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We deliver our services over a highly intelligent, reliable, redundant and secure fiber optic network, with separate and diverse routes to the Internet. This network and geographical diversity is important to clients seeking storage hosting and backup services, as it ensures protection of data in the case of a network interruption.

Data Storage is in the position today to leverage our infrastructure to grow revenue to significant levels by asset acquisition of data backup service providers’ customer bases. The aim is to reduce costs through economies of scale while reducing competition in local markets and consolidating efforts during the current economic downturn. Over 4,000 such service providers exist today; providing DSC with ample acquisition targets. Initial base acquisitions will be derived from companies that offer similar services to Data Storage as greater economies of scale can be realized using this strategy. In the future, DSC believes opportunities exist to acquire synergistic service providers to enhance our products and services portfolio. We believe that the opportunity exists today to roll up customer bases from resellers and software licensees of backup software. This will enable Data Storage to create a national presence as the premiere encrypted data depository; the National Data Bank. The roll up of these technical consulting companies and system integrators will also form a powerful distribution channel for both our current and future product and service offerings. Acquisition activity including organic growth is forecasted at $3.7 Million for 2009 and $9.7 Million for 2010. These revenue outlooks form the base line revenue for each consecutive year since revenue is monthly recurring and normally under a three year agreement with clients.

The marketplace providing data backup services are segmented into systems integrators that have added data protection services as an additionally product line adding to their bundle of services and products. In many situations, these companies have purchased equipment and software licenses, and in others, they simply resell without equipment and invoice their clients on a monthly recurring basis. Ownership of the account is with the software licensee or software company. The companies that resell or whom have purchased equipment have a restricted exit and little upside, except for their recurring compensation, which ranges from 20% to 50%. These potential acquisitions sell into their client base and convert their clients from an older technology to data vaulting. Data Storage’s position will be to invite these potential acquisition candidates to roll up, receiving cash and stock while providing their exit. These acquisitions will become members of the national brand, National Data Bank; a USA secured and encrypted data depositary which is currently in process of registration. The companies whom have sold their bases to Data Storage will have this identification on their business card and continue to receive a royalty and continue to sell Data Storage services. This movement will unite the system integrator and their client with Data Storage forming a powerful distribution channel and one that does not exist today in the industry.

Today there exists over 4,000 companies selling backup services, from small providers selling backup to the local business to large companies offering the ability to house their client’s employees and equipment in a situation of disaster, a hot site.

As a complete industry overview the combined disk, and optical storage industry is approaching $50B in revenue, while the storage management software industry now exceeds $5B in annual revenue. The global data storage market is forecasted to reach $39B by year 2010. It already reached $19.8B by 2005. The enterprise storage market is in excess of $15B, the midrange storage market in excess of $13B, the storage software market is in excess of $9B and the network attached storage in excess of $2B.

More specially as it relates to the services planned and currently being provided, IDC analysts’ worldwide storage-as-a-service forecast (in terms of backup, archiving, and replication) shows demand for DSC’s core services increasing to over $1.4 billion in 2011, up from under $400 million in 2006. IDC’s worldwide online backup services forecast shows that demand for online backup services specifically is growing year over year from 2006 through 2011 at a minimum of 25%. The largest growth is seen coming from the SMB, followed by enterprise customers. Virtual Tape Library’s has a market size of 5 billion by 2012.

Data Storage’s target base will be the mid size marketplace, initially, less than 500 employees; acquiring customer bases that range from 15 to 500 employee size clients initially during 2008 and 2009. Average monthly client invoices ranges per account will be 250 – 2500 dollars. Organically, Data Storage will continue to focus on major distribution channels; the healthcare industry and the continuation of channel partners and distributors.

It is our objective to build a national data protection solution provider protecting corporate and healthcare information while satisfying the business continuity and compliance requirements.

Healthcare DPS, a division of Data Storage, provides outsourced data protection technology and services for hospitals, nursing and residential care facilities, physician’s offices, home healthcare service companies, dental offices, alternative healthcare offices, outpatient care centers, ambulatory healthcare service companies, and medical and diagnostic laboratories in the New York metropolitan area. Healthcare DPS assists companies in complying with HIPAA and other federal and local regulations on data protection.

With zero tolerance for downtime, larger healthcare organizations require extremely reliable mission-critical data protection services. A host of state and industry regulators are now urging, and in some cases requiring, the development of business continuity and disaster recovery plans to ensure the backup, protection and recovery of data on a long-term basis. Internet Services over Ethernet is rapidly becoming the technology of choice to address these critical data center needs, because of its ability to provide transparent connectivity over the wide area. Data Storage offers an array of services in order to satisfy all of the aforementioned requirements.

Services
 
We offer the following services to our clients.
 
Archiving-Backup Lifecycle Management (BLM)
 
Backup data must be managed throughout its life cycle to provide the best data protection, meet compliance regulations and to improve recovery time objectives (RTO). The BLM Archiver offers policy-based file archiving and manages archiving and restoration of data from backup sessions, reducing the cost of inactive files on-line. It creates restorable point-in-time copies of backup sets for historical reference to meet compliance objectives and creates Certificates of Destruction. All of an enterprise's data can be placed into one of two categories. Critical information is that which is needed for day-to-day operations and resides in the system's primary storage for fast access. Important information is the historical, legal and regulatory information that can safely be archived to secondary storage, lower cost disk or tapes stored offsite.
 
Backup Lifecycle Management is a growing trend that promises substantial savings in hardware and administration, but not if the existing backup system is BLM-unfriendly. To achieve the expected return on investment (ROI), most enterprises will find it well worth choosing Distributed Backup that replaces traditional tape backup and integrates with BLM's unique technology for the greatest reduction in cost and complexity.
 
While there are many backup solutions on the market, not all are BLM-ready, even among those that backup to disk. It is important to note that simply replacing tape with low-cost disk will not provide the technological advantages of a tested, technologically distinct BLM architecture.
 
Continuous Data Protection (CDP) Appliance
 
As data continually mounts in today’s fast-paced business environment, organizations need to protect their systems on an ongoing basis, or risk losing mission-critical data, information, and transactions, as well as associated business revenue.
 
Continuous data protection is the process whereby data is captured and replicated to a separate storage location to ensure that a set of critical data is always available. With CDP you can roll back data to any known good point in time whenever necessary. In the event of a planned (maintenance, upgrade) or unplanned outage from a corrupted/lost file to a system failure or site level disaster, CDP ensures rapid data recovery to minimize downtime and data loss.
 
We provide a scalable CDP solution architecture designed to maximize business continuity of mission-critical messaging and database applications for data centers, dispersed branch offices, and even individual desktops and notebooks.
 
CDP solutions employ sophisticated I/O, CPU, and network throttling to achieve efficiency and reliability. Moreover, to protect against connectivity failures and interruptions, CDP features an auto resume mechanism that sustains replication and adapts according to the environment to achieve optimal and predictable performance.
 
Hard Disk Recovery by DriveSavers.com
 
We are an authorized reseller of DriveSavers hard disk recovery. DriveSavers’ advanced engineering methods and certified Class 100 clean room enable us to recover data from all hard drives, storage devices and removable media. We can recover from devices that have been dropped, sustained water or fire damage, suffered corruption, power failure, file deletion, or reformatting.

DriveSavers works with all versions of Windows, Mac, NetWare, and UNIX. They recover data from hard drives and removable media such as floppy diskettes, CD, or DVD. They also recover from all types of servers, RAID, SAN, and NAS devices.
 
Microsoft Exchange Backup
 
Continuous Data Protection (CDP) for Exchange

CDP provides a more efficient e-mail backup option based on its virtually unlimited granularity to remove the data loss vulnerabilities between regularly scheduled backups by optimizing Recover Point Objectives (RPO). As e-mail messages enter the Exchange server, CDP monitors the mailboxes and will immediately send those new e-mails to be backed up. Customers can now restore data from an infinite number of backup points, while the backup window and recovery time objectives are effectively reduced to zero. CDP is enabled for Microsoft Exchange using the Message Level Restore (MLR) functionality.

Offsite Backup Services

We provide online backup services that transfer a client’s information over the Internet or on a dedicated private circuit to our secure company owned off-site storage location. Our online backup service provides the most advanced data protection solution for small and medium businesses. Our service turns an ordinary server into a powerful and fully automated network backup device.

Even the most efficient organization must deal with the rare or occasional system maintenance, failures and outages. However, all businesses with intensive reliance on IT must be ready for the more catastrophic failures, such as fire, power outage or natural disaster. Our system addresses all data protection needs, from around-the-clock always updated protection of servers to the compliant archiving of data.

Virtual Tape Library (VTL)
 
Data Storage VTL addresses the issues associated with using physical tape as a primary backup/restore medium. Using a variety of protocols, VTL transfers data to and from disk-based virtual tapes at ultra-high speeds for fast backup and reliable recovery.
 
Replication with VTL enables cost-effective electronic transport for data recovery and infrastructure consolidation. Replication can be bi-directional, many-to-one, or on-to-many, providing highly efficient protection for any topology.
 
Only newly-created unique data is replicated, requiring a fraction of the bandwidth utilized by other technologies. Physical tape can be eliminated from remote/branch offices and consolidated at a central site. Only a single copy of data is replicated, even if it exists at multiple sites.
 
Tape is widely used as a prime medium for satisfying long-term compliance and archiving requirements. VTL maximizes the functionality of physical tape by offering multiple methods for creating and managing tapes, providing the flexibility to meet any required tape management schema.

Organizations today need to protect data company-wide, from the data center to the remote office. VTL is scalable solution deployed in companies of all sizes, from small and mid-sized businesses to large enterprise environments protecting multiple Petabytes of data. Whether customers require the simplicity of a single VTL or have multi-node and high-availability requirements, they can use VTL confidently, knowing that the solution will scale as their business grows.

RISK FACTORS
 
    
    You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this report before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated into this current report that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Risks Relating to Our Business

WE DEPEND ON OUR KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL AND THE LOSS OF THEIR SERVICES COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR BUSINESS.

We place substantial reliance upon the efforts and abilities of our executive officers. The loss of the services of any of our executive officers could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, revenues or prospects. We do not currently have employment agreements with some of our officers. We do not maintain key man life insurance on the lives of these individuals.
 
WE NEED TO MANAGE GROWTH IN OPERATIONS TO MAXIMIZE OUR POTENTIAL GROWTH AND ACHIEVE OUR EXPECTED REVENUES AND OUR FAILURE TO MANAGE GROWTH WILL CAUSE A DISRUPTION OF OUR OPERATIONS RESULTING IN THE FAILURE TO GENERATE REVENUE.

In order to maximize potential growth in our current and potential markets, we believe that we must expand our marketing operations. This expansion will place a significant strain on our management and our operational, accounting, and information systems. We expect that we will need to continue to improve our financial controls, operating procedures, and management information systems. We will also need to effectively train, motivate, and manage our employees. Our failure to manage our growth could disrupt our operations and ultimately prevent us from generating the revenues we expect.

WE MAY INCUR SIGNIFICANT COSTS TO ENSURE COMPLIANCE WITH U.S. CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND ACCOUNTING REQUIREMENTS.

We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs.

WE MAY NEVER ISSUE DIVIDENDS.

We did not declare any dividends for the year ended October 31, 2007 and have not declared any dividends to date in 2008. Our board of directors does not intend to distribute dividends in the near future. The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.
 
 
-9-

 
 
FUTURE ACQUISITIONS MAY HAVE AN ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR ABILITY TO MANAGE OUR BUSINESS.

If we are presented with appropriate opportunities, we may acquire complementary technologies or companies. Future acquisitions would expose us to potential risks, including risks associated with the assimilation of new technologies and personnel, unforeseen or hidden liabilities, the diversion of management attention and resources from our existing business and the inability to generate sufficient revenues to offset the costs and expenses of acquisitions. Any difficulties encountered in the acquisition and integration process may have an adverse effect on our ability to manage our business.
 
Risks Related to Our Industry

OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE TO DEVELOP AND EXPAND OUR PRODUCT OFFERINGS TO ADDRESS EMERGING BUSINESS DEMANDS AND TECHNOLOGICAL TRENDS WILL IMPACT OUR FUTURE GROWTH. IF WE ARE NOT SUCCESSFUL IN MEETING THESE BUSINESS CHALLENGES, OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND CASH FLOWS WILL BE MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED.
 
Our ability to implement solutions for our customers incorporating new developments and improvements in technology which translate into productivity improvements for our customers and to develop product offerings that meet the current and prospective customers’ needs are critical to our success. The markets we serve are highly competitive. Our competitors may develop solutions or services which make our offerings obsolete. Our ability to develop and implement up to date solutions utilizing new technologies which meet evolving customer needs in backup and disaster recovery solutions will impact our future revenue growth and earnings.
 
OUR PRIMARY MARKET CONSISTING OF SMALL TO MEDIUM BUSINESSES WITH INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY REQUIREMENTS THAT CAN BE SERVICED BY OUR PRODUCTS, IS A HIGHLY COMPETITIVE MARKET. IF WE ARE UNABLE TO COMPETE IN THIS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE MARKET, OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS WILL BE MATERIALLY AND ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

Our competitors include large, technically competent and well capitalized companies. As a result, the markets which we serve are highly competitive. This competition may place downward pressure on operating margins in our industry. As a result, we may not be able to maintain our current operating margins for our product offerings in the future.

Any reductions in margins will require that we effectively manage our cost structure. If we fail to effectively manage our cost structure during periods with declining margins, our results of operations will be adversely affected.
 
THE BACKUP AND DISASTER RECOVERY SPACE IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND FRAGMENTED, WHICH MEANS THAT OUR CUSTOMERS HAVE A NUMBER OF CHOICES FOR PROVIDERS OF SERVICES AND PRODUCTS AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY.
 
The market for our products is highly competitive. The market is fragmented, there are a wide variety of product offerings with different capabilities, and no company holds a dominant position. Consequently, our competition for clients varies significantly Most of our competitors are larger and have greater technical, financial, and marketing resources and greater name recognition than we have in the markets we collectively serve. In addition, clients may elect to increase their internal IT systems resources to satisfy their backup/disaster recovery needs.

CHANGES IN GOVERNMENT REGULATIONS AND LAWS AFFECTING THE IT INDUSTRY, INCLUDING ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES AND INTERPRETATIONS AND THE TAXATION OF DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN OPERATIONS, COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
 
Changing laws, regulations and standards relating to corporate governance and public disclosure, including the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 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 which, in many instances, is due to their lack of specificity. As a result, the application of these new standards and regulations in practice may evolve over time as new guidance is provided by regulatory and governing bodies. This could result in continuing uncertainty regarding compliance matters and higher costs necessitated by ongoing revisions to disclosure and governance practices. We are committed to maintaining high standards of corporate governance and public disclosure. As a result, our efforts to comply with evolving laws, regulations and standards have resulted in, and are likely to continue to result in, increased general and administrative expenses and a diversion of management time and attention from revenue-generating activities to compliance activities. In particular, our efforts to comply with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the related regulations regarding our required assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting and our independent auditors’ audit of that assessment has required the commitment of significant internal, financial and managerial resources.
 
The Financial Accounting Standards Board, SEC or other accounting rulemaking authorities may issue new accounting rules or standards that are different than those that we presently apply to our financial results. Such new accounting rules or standards could require significant changes from the way we currently report our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
 
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been the subject of frequent interpretations. As a result of the enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the review of accounting policies by the SEC as well as by national and international accounting standards bodies, the frequency of future accounting policy changes may accelerate. Such future changes in financial accounting standards may have a significant effect on our reported results of operations, including results of transactions entered into before the effective date of the changes.
 
We are subject to income taxes in the United States. Our provision for income taxes and our tax liability in the future could be adversely affected by numerous factors including, but not limited to, changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in tax laws, regulations, accounting principles or interpretations thereof, which could adversely impact our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in future periods.
 
Risks Associated with our Securities
 
WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO THE PENNY STOCK RULES WHICH WILL MAKE THE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK MORE DIFFICULT TO SELL.

We may be subject now and in the future to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules if our shares of common stock sell below $5.00 per share.  Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. The penny stock rules require broker-dealers to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC which provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer must also provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. The bid and offer quotations, and the broker-dealer and salesperson compensation information must be given to the customer orally or in writing prior to completing the transaction and must be given to the customer in writing before or with the customer's confirmation.
 
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction, the broker dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement to the transaction.  The penny stock rules are burdensome and may reduce purchases of any offerings and reduce the trading activity for shares of our common stock. As long as our shares of common stock are subject to the penny stock rules, the holders of such shares of common stock may find it more difficult to sell their securities.  

OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ARE VERY THINLY TRADED, AND THE PRICE MAY NOT REFLECT OUR VALUE AND THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THERE WILL BE AN ACTIVE MARKET FOR OUR SHARES OF COMMON STOCK EITHER NOW OR IN THE FUTURE.

Our shares of common stock are very thinly traded, and the price if traded may not reflect our value. There can be no assurance that there will be an active market for our shares of common stock either now or in the future. The market liquidity will be dependent on the perception of our operating business and any steps that our management might take to bring us to the awareness of investors. There can be no assurance given that there will be any awareness generated. Consequently, investors may not be able to liquidate their investment or liquidate it at a price that reflects the value of the business. If a more active market should develop, the price may be highly volatile. Because there may be a low price for our shares of common stock, many brokerage firms may not be willing to effect transactions in the securities. Even if an investor finds a broker willing to effect a transaction in the shares of our common stock, the combination of brokerage commissions, transfer fees, taxes, if any, and any other selling costs may exceed the selling price. Further, many lending institutions will not permit the use of such shares of common stock as collateral for any loans.

COMPANY OVERVIEW
 
Data Storage provides online backup, data archival and disaster recovery service to businesses at a competitive cost through the operation of an internet and private network based service utilizing state of the art technology and high calibre personnel. Under our current management, we have grown and developed adding personnel to provide a service in all time zones.
 
We service customers from our New York premises which consist of modern offices and a technology suite adapted to meet the needs of a technology based business. Our primary role is to provide, maintain and develop the network hub hardware and software to meet the needs of our customers.
 
Data Storage varies its use of resource, technology and work processes to meet the changing opportunities and challenges presented by the market and the internal customer requirements.

PLAN OF OPERATIONS

Data Storage is in the position today to leverage our excellent infrastructure to grow revenue to significant levels by asset acquisition of data backup service providers’ customer bases. The aim is to reduce costs through economies of scale while reducing competition in local markets and consolidating efforts during the current economic downturn. Over 4,000 such service providers exist today; providing us with ample acquisition targets. Initial base acquisitions will come from companies that offer similar services to Data Storage as greater economies of scale can be realized using this strategy. In the future, we see opportunities to acquire synergistic service providers to enhance or products and services portfolio. We believe that the opportunity exists today to roll up customer bases from resellers and software licensees of backup software. This will enable Data Storage to create a national presence as the premiere encrypted data depository; the National Data Bank. The roll up of these technical consulting companies and system integrators will also form a powerful distribution channel for both our current and future product and service offerings. Acquisition activity including organic growth is forecasted at $3.7 Million for 2009 and $9.7 Million for 2010.

The marketplace providing data backup services are segmented into systems integrators that have added data protection services as an additionally product line adding to their bundle of services and products. In many situations, these companies have purchased equipment and software licenses, and in others, they simply resell without equipment and invoice their clients on a monthly recurring basis. Ownership of the account is with the software license or software company. The companies that resell or whom have purchased equipment have a restricted exit and little upside, except for their recurring compensation, which ranges from 20% to 50%. These potential acquisitions sell into their client base and convert their clients from an older technology to data vaulting. Data Storage’s position will be to invite these potential acquisition candidates to roll up, receiving cash and stock while providing their exit. These acquisitions will become members of the national brand, National Data Bank; a USA secured and encrypted data depository. The companies whom have sold their bases to Data Storage will have this identification on their business card and continue to receive a royalty and continue to sell Data Storage services. This movement will unite the system integrator and their client with Data Storage forming a powerful distribution channel and one that does not exist today in the industry.

Today there exists over 4,000 companies selling backup services, from small providers selling backup to the local business to large companies offering the ability to house their client’s employees and equipment in a situation of disaster, a hot site.

Today, the products and services that Data Storage offers are the following: Data Vaulting with a market size of 5 billion by 2013, Virtual Tape Library’s with a market size of 5 billion by 2010; Data Replication; and, Professional Services with Business Continuity Planning Services. Data Storage’s target base will be the mid size marketplace, initially, less the 500 employees; acquiring customer bases that range from 15 to 500 employee size clients initially during 2008 and 2009. Average revenue ranges per account will be $250 – $2,500 per month. Organically, Data Storage will continue to focus on major distribution channels; the healthcare industry and the continuation of channel partners and distributors.

It is our objective to build a national data protection solution provider protecting corporate and healthcare information while satisfying the business continuity and compliance requirements.

Through Healthcare DPS, a division of Data Storage, we provide outsourced data protection technology and services for hospitals, nursing and residential care facilities, physician’s offices, home healthcare service companies, dental offices, alternative healthcare offices, outpatient care centers, ambulatory healthcare service companies, and medical and diagnostic laboratories in the New York metropolitan area.  Healthcare DPS assists companies in complying with HIPAA and other federal and local regulations on data protection.

With zero tolerance for downtime, larger healthcare organizations require extremely reliable mission-critical data protection services. A host of state and industry regulators are now urging, and in some cases requiring, the development of business continuity and disaster recovery plans to ensure the backup, protection and recovery of data on a long-term basis. Internet Services over Ethernet is rapidly becoming the technology of choice to address these critical data center needs, because of its ability to provide transparent connectivity over the wide area. Data Storage offers an array of services in order to satisfy all of the aforementioned requirements.

Cost of Goods sold decreased $6,596 from $345,819 for the year ended December 31, 2006 to $339,223 for the year ended December 31, 2007.  This decrease is primarily due to a restructuring of customer service employees.

Net Revenue

Net revenue declined by $9,330 from $337,917 in the six months ended June 30, 2007 to $328,587 for the six months ended June 30, 2008.  This represented a decrease of 2.76%

Cost of Goods Sold

Selling General & Administrative Expenses

Selling, General & Administrative expenses increased $6,453 or 2.3% from $280,191 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 to $286,644 for the six months ended June 30, 2008.  This is principally due to general inflation increases in costs.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company currently generates its cash flow through operations which it believes will be sufficient to sustain current level operations for at least the next twelve months.  In 2008 we intend to continue to work to increase our presence in the marketplace through both organic growth and acquisition of data storage service provider’s assets.

To the extent we are successful in growing our business, identifying potential acquisition targets and negotiating the terms of such acquisition, and the purchase price includes a cash component, we plan to use our working capital and the proceeds of any financing to finance such acquisition costs. Our opinion concerning our liquidity is based on current information. If this information proves to be inaccurate, or if circumstances change, we may not be able to meet our liquidity needs.

During the calendar year 2007 the company’s cash increased $14,177 to $37,803. The Company’s principal shareholder funded the company’s capital needs for the year ended December 31, 2007 on an as needed basis.

The Company’s working capital increased $1.3 million from between July 1, 2008 and October 15, 2008. This increase arose from the sale of preferred stock to 4 individuals who were not previously shareholders of the Company.

Conflicts of Interest

Certain potential conflicts of interest are inherent in the relationships between our officers and directors, and us.

From time to time, one or more of our affiliates may form or hold an ownership interest in and/or manage other businesses both related and unrelated to the type of business that we own and operate.  These persons expect to continue to form, hold an ownership interest in and/or manage additional other businesses which may compete with ours with respect to operations, including financing and marketing, management time and services and potential customers.  These activities may give rise to conflicts between or among the interests of us and other businesses with which our affiliates are associated.  Our affiliates are in no way prohibited from undertaking such activities, and neither we nor our shareholders will have any right to require participation in such other activities.

Further, because we intend to transact business with some of our officers, directors and affiliates, as well as with firms in which some of our officers, directors or affiliates have a material interest, potential conflicts may arise between the respective interests of us and these related persons or entities.  We believe that such transactions will be effected on terms at least as favorable to us as those available from unrelated third parties.
