Forward-Looking Statements
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Annual Report on Form 10-KSB contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements represent our managements judgment regarding future events. In many cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as may, will, should, plan, expect, anticipate, estimate, predict, intend, potential or continue or the negative of these terms or other words of similar import, although some forward-looking statements are expressed differently. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this report regarding our financial position, business strategy and plans or objectives for future operations are forward-looking statements. Without limiting the broader description of forward-looking statements above, we specifically note that statements regarding future developments or results of operations are all forward-looking in nature. We cannot guarantee the accuracy of the forward-looking statements, and you should be aware that actual results and events will differ, and may differ materially and adversely from those contained in the forward-looking statements.
You should also consider carefully the statements set forth in this report under Risk Factors which address these and additional factors that could cause results or events to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that affect our business, financial condition and results of operations, including without limitation, our possible inability to become certified as a reseller in all jurisdictions in which we apply, our possible inability to obtain additional financing, the possible lack of producing agent growth, our possible lack of revenue growth, our possible inability to add new products and services that would generate increased sales, our possible lack of cash flows, our possible loss of key personnel, the possibility of telecommunication rate changes and technological changes, the possibility of increased competition and the possibility that our new subsidiary will not be successful. Many of these risks are beyond our control.
All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or to persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the applicable cautionary statements. In addition, new risks emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors or to assess the impact of such risk factors on our business. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements.
ITEM 1 Description of Business.
BayHill Capital Corporation (we, us or BHCC), formerly Cognigen Networks, Inc., was incorporated in May 1983 in the State of Colorado. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary Commission River Corporation (Commission River) we market and sell services and products through commission-based marketing agents who use the Internet as a platform to provide customers and subscribers with a variety of telecommunications and technology-based products and services. Historically, we have generated revenues in two ways:
First, we have generated marketing commission revenues from vendors who are represented on web sites operated by independent agents and for whom we sell products and services via contractual agreements. Generally, we enter into contractual agreements with these vendors, who pay us commissions based on the volume of products and services sold by our independent sales agents. We then pay a portion of those commission revenues to the independent sales agents responsible for making the sales upon which the commissions were based. A significant portion of our commission revenues is attributable to the sale of domestic long distance services and commercial telecommunications services; however, we also generate commission revenues from the sale of wireless communications, residential broadband services, Voice over Internet (VoIP) services and prepaid calling cards/PINs.
Second, we have, at times also generated revenues from sales of proprietary products and services. Generally, we have acquired or developed these proprietary products and services with the intention of marketing such products and services through our independent agent network. These products and services have included long distance telecommunication services, online shopping websites and broadband voice, data, video and management communication and control support services. Most of these products have been sold by independent agents, and we have generally paid commissions to independent agents based on the dollar volume of products sold. Currently we do not offer any proprietary products or services. We regularly look for opportunities to acquire or develop proprietary products or services. If we identify any proprietary products or services which we believe we could market profitably, we may offer proprietary products or services in the future.

On March 31, 2008, we held a special meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved a series of proposals previously approved by our Board of Directors. These proposals consisted of (i) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse split of the outstanding shares of our common stock pursuant to which each 50 shares of our pre-split common stock issued and outstanding as of the effective date of the reverse split would be exchanged for one share of our post-split common stock, (ii) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 300,000,000 shares, $.001 par value per share, to 100,000,000 shares, $.0001 par value per share, and the number of authorized shares of our preferred stock from 20,000,000 shares, no par value per share, to 400,000 shares, $.0001 par value per share, (iii) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to BayHill Capital Corporation and make other changes necessary to facilitate the foregoing actions and the reincorporation of BHCC, (iv) a proposal to re-incorporate BHCC under the laws of the State of Delaware, and (v) a proposal to adopt the Cognigen Networks, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan.
Based upon the approval of our shareholders at the March 31,2008 special meeting, effective April 23, 2008 our management completed the actions necessary to effect the name change, reverse stock split, Delaware re-incorporation and reduction in the number of authorized shares of common and preferred stock. Our common stock began trading on April 23, 2008 on a post-split basis under the symbol "BYHL." All share and per-share amounts reflected in this report have been restated to reflect the 1 for 50 reverse stock split unless otherwise indicated.
Through our network of independent agents, we have previously sold our own proprietary products and services and, as agent, we sell third party or outside vendor products and services, to customers and subscribers worldwide. Long distance and commercial telecommunications services make up the major portion of our sales with wireless communications, residential broadband services, VoIP services, prepaid calling cards/PINs and other products in our sales mix. As an agent, we have contractual agreements with a variety of product and service vendors that provide us with a commission percentage of any sales made through one of our supported web sites. As agent, we sell the products and services of industry product and service providers such as AT&T, AccuLinq, Simplexity, Telarus, Packet8, Lingo, Pioneer Telephone, OPEX, and PowerNet Global,. Our operations are, in large part, dependent on our continued affiliation with the third-party providers of the products and services that our agents sell.
Commission River
In November 2007, we acquired the assets of Commission River, Inc., an online marketing and distribution platform company. Using the marketing platform and programs we acquired from Commission River, Inc., we transitioned our marketing strategy to utilize the Commission River platform to promote and sell products and services online for third party product vendors who want to build brand awareness, generate sales leads, and expand their customer reach. We believe the Commission River platform makes it easier for product vendors to access and manage multiple marketing channels and product distribution points online by using our marketing platform. The founders of Commission River, Inc., are now the executives of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Commission River Corporation (Commission River or CR), and continue to manage and direct Commission Rivers business, which now also includes our historic business, such that all of our current business operations are conducted through Commission River.
Discontinued Operations
LowestCostMall
In July 2006, we discontinued the operations conducted by LowestCostMall (LCM). See also, Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, Discontinued Operations, set forth in Item 7 of this report, for additional information regarding LCM.
Cognigen Business Systems, Inc.
On September 14, 2007, we sold Cognigen Business Systems, Inc. (CBSi). See also Note 2 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, Discontinued Operations, set forth in Item 7 of this report, for additional information regarding CBSi.
Sale of Proprietary Telecommunications Accounts
On October 13, 2006, we agreed to sell our interest in the majority of our telecommunications one plus accounts for which we recorded telecommunications revenue through sales of proprietary products and services. See also Note 2 to
4
our Consolidated Financial Statements, Discontinued Operations, set forth in Item 7 of this report, for additional information regarding the sale of our one plus accounts.
Revenue Concentration
Commission revenue from our two largest vendors generated approximately 60% and 47%, respectively, of our total revenue for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Of the above percentages, 45% and 24% of our revenue respectively, were generated from Telarus which is owned by two executive officers of Commission River.
Our vendor arrangements are generally cancelable by our vendors on short-term notice. Our loss of a significant amount of business with either of our two largest vendors, or the collective loss of a substantial amount of business with our other vendors, would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, our future revenue growth is largely dependent upon our ability to attract and retain additional vendors and to generate additional revenues business from existing vendors.
Competition
We compete with all of the companies for whom we sell products as an agent, with a number of companies that are network marketing telecommunication companies, and with outside vendors who sell telecommunications, personal communications and other products directly and over the Internet.
Competitors and alternatives in the market for Internet merchandising and distribution come from several different established fronts. As the adoption of third party selling models continues to increase, we anticipate new competitors will enter the market as well.
Many of our current and potential competitors have longer operating histories and significantly greater selling and marketing, technical, financial, customer support, professional services and other resources than we do. As a result, these competitors are able to devote greater resources to the development, promotion, sale and support of their products. Moreover, our competitors may foresee the course of market developments more accurately than we do and could develop new technologies that would compete with us or even render our services obsolete. We may not have sufficient resources to continue to make the investments or achieve the technological advances necessary to compete successfully with existing or new competitors. In addition, due to the rapidly evolving markets in which we compete, additional competitors with significant market presence and financial resources, including large telecommunications companies, may enter the markets in which we compete, thereby further intensifying competition.
The markets in which we compete are characterized by increasing consolidation. We cannot predict how industry consolidation will affect our competitors and we may not be able to compete successfully in an increasingly consolidated industry. Additionally, because we may be dependent on strategic relationships with third parties in our industry, any consolidation involving these parties could reduce the demand for our products and otherwise harm our business prospects. Our competitors that have large market capitalizations or cash reserves are also better positioned than we are to acquire other companies, including our competitors, thereby obtaining new technologies or products that may displace our product lines. Any of these acquisitions could give our competitors a strategic advantage that would materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, many of our competitors have much greater name recognition and have a more extensive customer base, broader customer relationships, significant financing programs, and broader product offerings than we do. These companies could adopt aggressive pricing policies and leverage their customer bases and broader product offerings to gain market share.
Competitive pressures could result in price reductions, reduced margin and loss of market share, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Technology and Intellectual Property
On November 30, 2007, we acquired the assets of Commission River, Inc. in an asset purchase transaction. The assets acquired consisted of intellectual property valued at $400,000 and employment and non-compete agreements valued at $400,000. We amortize these intangible assets over their estimated useful lives of three years on a straight-line basis. See also Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, Description of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies set forth in Item 7 of this report for additional information.
Regulation
We had been authorized pursuant to authority of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to operate as an interstate and international resale carrier under Section 214 of the FCC rules. This part of our business has been sold and we no longer operate under these rules. Prior to the sale, we were regulated by various state public utility commissions as a reseller of interstate and intrastate long distance telecommunications services. In conjunction with the sale of our FCC-regulated operations, we began to surrender our state Certificates of Convenience and Necessity as we are no longer serving as a reseller of regulated telecommunications services. We have completed this process in all but one state.
Employees
As of June 30, 2008, we had six full-time employees. In addition, as of June 30, 2008, we engaged 6 part-time employees who served as our executive officers or officers of our wholly-owned subsidiary, Commission River. We also engage temporary consultants from time to time. Three of the temporary consultants engaged through June 30, 2008 were employees of Telarus, one of our principal vendors, and their expenses were charged to Commission River at their fully-burdened rates. We currently anticipate that we will continue to use outside consultants from time to time but do not expect the expense of these outside consultants to be more than $10,000 per month in the near future
Risk Factors
The following information sets forth risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in forward-looking statements we have made in this report and those we may make from time to time. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operation, prospects or financial condition could be harmed. These are not the only risks we face. Additional risks not presently known to us, or that we currently deem immaterial, may also affect our business operations.
Cash Flows from Operations May Not be Sufficient to Continue our Operations without Obtaining Additional Working Capital.
We have historically funded our operations primarily from sales of securities from debt financings and from operating cash flows. Cash generated from operations alone has not historically and may not, in the future, be sufficient to fund our operations in the coming fiscal year. If we fail to generate sufficient revenues and cash flow to fund our operations, our ability to pursue our business plan will be severely limited and we will not be able to continue our anticipated operations unless we are able to obtain additional capital through equity or debt financings. Such additional capital may not be available. Even if it is available, the potential funding sources may require terms and conditions which we cannot satisfy or which may require substantial modifications to our business plan. In addition, if we are able to raise additional funds through the sale of equity or convertible securities, such financing likely will result in significant dilution of the ownership percentage of existing shareholders.
Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm has Expressed Concern Regarding our Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.
Our audited consolidated financial statements included in Item 7 of this report were prepared on the assumption that we will be able to continue our operations as a going concern. In its report on our financial statements, dated September 10, 2008, our independent registered public accounting firm stated we have experienced circumstances which raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to generate additional revenue from operations or attract additional equity or debt financing, we will likely not be able to continue our operations as a going concern.
6
Our Revenue and Growth will be Largely Dependent upon Sales Generated by Independent Agents.
We use a network of independent agents and affiliate groups, each utilizing their own customized website to sell third party or outside vendor products and services to customers and subscribers worldwide. As a result, our revenue is dependent on sales generated by our independent agents. Failure of these agents to achieve sustained sales or to grow their sales, or our inability to attract and retain producing agents with an appropriate commission structure, will materially and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
We Have a History of Losses and May Continue to Experience Losses.
We have historically experienced net losses. In the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006 and 2007, we had net losses of $(1,308,483) and $(680,228), respectively. Our net loss for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 increased to $(2,381,891), and we had an accumulated deficit of $(16,325,352) as of June 30, 2008. We will likely continue to incur net losses unless we are able to attract additional independent marketing agents or affiliate groups or dramatically increase the revenues we generate from our existing agent network. We can give no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitable operations or that, if we achieve profitability, we will be able to maintain profitable operations.
We Market Products and Services of Third Party Vendors; However those Vendors are Under No Long-Term Obligation to Continue to Allow us to Market and Sell Their Products or Services.
A material portion of our revenue results from the sale and marketing of the products of third party vendors who own and control the rights to market and sell their products and services. Our ability to offer these products and services is dependent on our agreements with such vendors being renewed and not terminated. The non-renewal or termination of a substantial number of these agreements would have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
In general, our vendors can cancel their contracts on short notice. It can take a significant amount of time to develop and obtain new vendors. Thus, the loss of any of our key vendors could have a significant effect on our revenues and cash flow. In addition, our future revenue growth is dependent upon our ability to attract and retain additional vendors and to generate additional revenues through our existing vendors.
We Rely on Innovative Technology to Enable and Support the Marketing of Products and Services by our Independent Agents.
We use proprietary self-replicating web page technology to run our web-based operations. If another technology becomes the preferred industry standard, we may be at a competitive disadvantage which, in turn, may require us to make changes at substantially increased costs or could substantially disrupt our operations. If our technology becomes obsolete at some time in the future and we are unable to develop or change to an alternate technology in a cost-effective manner, it could materially adversely affect our financial conditions and results of operations.
The Traditional Markets in which we Compete are Marked by High Customer Turnover and Intense Competition.
The industries in which our agents traditionally resell have experienced high rates of customer turnover. The high rate of customer turnover is attributable to several factors including the non-use of customer contracts, pricing competition and customer care concerns. Our strategy to address customer turnover may not be successful or the rate of customer turnover may be unacceptable. Price competition and other competitive factors could also cause increased customer turnover. A high rate of customer turnover could have a material adverse affect on our competitive position and results of operations or cause significant fluctuation in our results of operations from period to period.
Our Products and Services are Characterized by Consumer Tastes and Trends, Product Mix, and Technological Changes.
We are a multifaceted sales and marketing organizations that utilizes the Internet as a platform to provide our customers and subscribers with a variety of telecommunications and technology-based products and services in markets that are characterized by high rates of customer turnover, shortening product life cycles, and rapid changes in technology and customer preferences. If we are unable to accurately forecast customer preferences and demands or market and technological trends and transitions, or if we are unable to add new products and services that generate increased sales to our offered product and services mix, our financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected.
7
An Active Trading Market for our Securities has Not Developed and the Price of our Securities may be Volatile.
An active sustained trading market for our securities has not developed. As a result of our common stock not being quoted on a national exchange, an investor may find it more difficult to dispose of or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock. In addition, we are subject to rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission which impose various sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell our common stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. For these types of transactions, the broker/dealer has to make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchasers written consent to the transactions prior to sale. Consequently, the rule may have an adverse effect on the ability of broker/dealers to sell our common stock, which may affect the ability of purchasers to sell our common stock in the open market. The price at which our securities trade is likely to be highly volatile and may fluctuate substantially due to a number of factors including, but not limited to, those discussed in the other risk factors described above and the following:
| volatility in stock market prices and volumes, which is particularly common among smaller companies; | |
| lack of research coverage for companies with small public floats; | |
| failure to achieve sustainable financial performance; | |
| actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results; | |
| announcements of technological innovations by us or others; | |
| entry of new or more powerful competitors into our markets or consolidation of existing competitors to create | |
larger, more formidable competitors; | ||
| terrorist attacks either in the US or abroad; | |
| general stock market conditions; and | |
| the general state of the US and world economies. |
We do not Intend to Pay Dividends and You May Not Experience a Return on Investment Without Selling Your Securities.
We have never declared or paid, nor do we intend in the foreseeable future to declare or pay, any cash dividends on our common stock. Since we intend to retain all future earnings to finance the operation and growth of our business, you will likely need to sell your securities in order to realize a return on your investment, if any.
Our Executives are Part-Time Employees and Have Other Interests.
Our executive officers are employed on a part-time basis and have other business activities that could be competitive with are unrelated to our business. The executive officers of Commission River, are also owners and executives of Telarus, which is engaged in a business similar to our business. The part-time nature of our executives may not be sufficient to accomplish the strategies and initiatives necessary for our successful execution of our business plan. The similar nature of the business of Telarus and its ownership by two of our executives could create conflicts of interest which may not be in the best interest of BHCC..
ITEM 2 Description of Property.
We currently lease approximately 160 square feet of furnished space at 10757 S. Riverfront Parkway, Suite 125, South Jordan, Utah, on a month to month basis at approximately $1,000 per month.
ITEM 3 Legal Proceedings.
From time to time we may become subject to certain legal proceedings which we consider routine to our business activities. As of June 30, 2008, we were not engaged in any legal proceedings which our management believed were likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, liquidity or results of operations.
ITEM 4 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Securities Holders
None.

PART II
ITEM 5 Market for Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Small Business Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.
Since April 23, 2008, our common stock has been quoted on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board (the OTCBB) under the symbol BYHL. Prior to that date, our common stock was quoted on the NASD OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol CGNW. The following table sets forth, for the periods indicated, the high and low closing bid price quotations for the common stock as reported on the OTCBB,
High Bid | Low Bid | |||

Quarter ended December 31, 2006 | $ | 7.50 | $ | 3.185 |
Quarter ended September 30, 2006 | $ | 11.50 | $ | 3.750 |
Historically, our common stock has not traded in high volumes. An active or liquid trading market in our common stock may not develop or, if it does develop, it may not continue.
The market price for our common stock could be subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly operating results, announcements of technological innovations or new products and services by us or our competitors, or our failure to achieve operating results consistent with securities analysts projections of our performance.
The securities markets for developing companies like BHCC have been characterized by extreme price and volume fluctuations and volatility. Such fluctuations and volatility have affected the market price of many emerging growth and development stage companies. Such fluctuations and volatility have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. Factors such as announcements of the introduction of new or enhanced services or related products by us or our competition, announcements of joint development efforts or corporate partnerships in the telecommunications market, market conditions in the technology, telecommunications and other emerging growth sectors or rumors relating to us or our competitors may have a significant impact on the market price of our common stock.
As of September 10 2008, there were approximately 380 holders of record of our common stock. The number of holders of record does not include holders whose securities are held in street name.
We have never paid and do not, in the foreseeable future, anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock. We intend to retain any earnings for use in our business operations and in the expansion of our business.

ITEM 6 Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Overview
Over the past ten years, Commission River has established itself as a leading affiliate marketing company focused almost exclusively on telecommunications products and services. We have developed an alternate marketing channel for communications vendors giving them an online presence to generate leads and sales for these vendors. We have developed a specialized affiliate marketing platform comprised of technologies, programs, and services such as: marketing tools, training and sales tracking that gives us and our online marketing partners (e.g., affiliate marketers) the ability to drive leads using blogs, paid search, and organic search engine optimization techniques. We also create software designed to enable affiliates to coordinate and share ideas with each other in a close-knit on-line community whose emphasis is on mutual success.
We are now positioning our operations to expand into additional vertical markets. We believe this re-positioning will enable us to transition from Commission Rivers specialization in telecommunication products and services to become a specialty affiliate marketing company for a broader range of products and services.
Our vision is to provide affiliate distribution channels to companies seeking to develop their online marketing presence and sales. We believe our focus on specific verticals will allow us to create specialized tools and marketing methods for affiliates that may result in increased online exposure and sales for our vendors.
Year Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Year Ended June 30, 2007
Total revenue for 2008 was $4,122,517 compared to $5,619,892 for 2007. This represents a decrease of $1,497,375 from that of 2007, or 27%. This decrease reflects decreases in sales of long distance products and cell phones, including the effect of decreased commissions paid by our largest cell phone carrier who filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.
Marketing commissions expense decreased from $4,060,520 for 2007 to $2,671,217 for 2008, a decrease of $1,389,303, or 34%. This decrease correlates to a decrease in marketing commissions revenue explained above. The higher percentage decrease in marketing commissions expense compared to marketing commissions revenue was attributable to a change in product mix between the periods and a change in the commission override structure to certain master sales agents.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,312,938 or 71% for 2008 compared to 2007. This increase was largely attributable to issuances of shares of our common stock in exchange for services provided by directors, management and consultants, for which a value in the aggregate was recorded to general and administrative expenses of approximately $1,250,000. In addition, during the year ended June 30, 2008 we either recorded bad debt expense or wrote off specific marketing commissions receivable of approximately $445,000 attributable to receivables from our largest cell phone carrier who filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and our evaluation of the likelihood of collecting commissions receivable. Also, during 2008 we had an increase in personnel due to the acquisition of Commission River and an increase in legal, accounting and other expenses associated with preparations for, and conduct of our annual meeting of shareholders in December 2007, and our special shareholders meeting on March 31, 2008, as well as corporate restructuring efforts resulting therefrom.
Interest expense for 2008 of $461,721 was higher than the $135,891 for 2007 due primarily to beneficial conversion features of approximately $266,000 relating to convertible promissory notes and short term loans recorded during 2008. The notes and short term loans were subsequently converted to shares of our common stock.
The decrease of $182,200 in the loss from discontinued operations from 2007 to 2008 largely reflects that the operations of the discontinued businesses were concluded in the early part of our fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.
Seasonality and Economic Conditions
We do not believe that our current revenue is affected by seasons of the year.
10
Inflation
We do not believe that inflation had a material impact on our results of operations for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008 or 2007.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash flows generated from operations, advances pursuant to our financing arrangements and cash from the issuance of notes payable to BayHill Capital, LC, an entity affiliated with two of our executive officers, were sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the year ended June 30, 2008, but will not likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the foreseeable future or provide for expansion opportunities. We incurred $2,337,301 in losses from continuing operations, and $44,590 in losses from discontinued operations and we used $186,621 in cash flows from operations for the year ended June 30, 2008. Net cash flows generated from financing activities for the year ended June 30, 2008 were $201,079 primarily due to $695,000 of proceeds from financings, net of payments on financing arrangements of $496,252. As of June 30, 2008, our current liabilities of $1,340,734 exceeded our current assets of $444,952 by $895,782. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Throughout the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, BayHill Capital, LC, an entity which is affiliated with two of our executive officers, and Vector Capital LLC, an entity which is affiliated with our Chief Executive Officer, extended to us a series of loans in the form of short-term and convertible notes in the amount of $695,000. All of these notes, together with $250,000 of notes outstanding as of June 30, 2007 and accrued interest, were converted into 744,330 shares of our common stock in multiple transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008. See also, Note 6 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, Stockholders Equity for additional information regarding the issuance of such shares of our common stock.
Subsequent to June 30, 2008, we obtained an advance of $100,000 in cash funds for use as working capital from Little Hollow Farms, Inc., a company that is affiliated with our Chief Executive Officer. It is our intention that the full amount of the advance will be included as a portion of our next round of equity funding. Currently, we have not reached an agreement with the lender regarding the repayment or conversion of the advances.
In order for us to continue as a going concern, we hope to obtain additional debt or equity financing, increase revenues, and increase cash flows from operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing, that we will be able to increase revenues or cash flows from our operations, or that, if we are successful in any of those actions, those actions will produce adequate cash flow to enable us to meet all our future obligations or to be able to expand. All of our existing financing arrangements are short-term. If we are unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we may be required to significantly reduce or cease operations.
Financing Arrangements
As of June 30, 2008, our third-party financing arrangements consisted of the following:
Secured Term Loan with VenCore | $ | 166,614 |
Note Payable to Cardelco | 5,000 | |
$ | 171,614 |
Secured Term Loan with VenCore Solutions, Inc.
On October 10, 2006, we entered into an agreement with VenCore Solutions, Inc. (VenCore) to borrow $250,000 under a term loan to be repaid by making monthly payments of $9,000, which included interest at 16.7% per annum. The loan was fully amortizable over 36 months. The loan documents contained certain covenants, which included the requirement of VenCores approval of the disposition of any of our material assets, a prohibition against our incurrence of additional liens on our assets or the change of creditors. As part of our agreement with VenCore, we issued to VenCore warrants to purchase 1,500 shares of our restricted common stock valued at $5,093. The warrants have an exercise price of $6.00 per share and are exercisable for up to seven years from date of grant. We granted VenCore a lien on substantially all of our assets. We also paid to VenCore commitment and documentation fees of $5,500. These fees were amortized over three years as an adjustment to interest expense. As of June 30, 2008 the remaining principal and accrued interest balance was $166,614. In July 2008 we entered in to a Payment Restructure Agreement with VenCore whereby VenCore converted $83,500 of the term loan into an unsecured 12% convertible note due September 30, 2009 which is convertible, at the option of VenCore, into no more than 66,800 shares of our common stock. The interest on this convertible note is payable at our
11
option in common stock priced at a value of $1.25 per share. In addition, VenCore was granted a two-year warrant to purchase 20,875 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The remaining original note balance of $83,321, along with interest at 16.7%, is to be paid in monthly payments of an amount equal to the greater of $5,000 per month or 10% of any debt or equity funding we receive in any given month. We paid VenCore $1,000 for documentation fees in relation to the Payment Restructure Agreement, which was expensed. Based on a calculation using the Black Scholes Model, we believe that during the year ending June 30, 2009 the conversion feature within this convertible promissory note and warrants will result in the Company recording a beneficial conversion feature of approximately $14,000 and an increase to debt discount, which will be accreted to interest expense over the term of the note. See also Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, "Financing Arrangements" set forth in Item 7 of this report for additional information regarding the VenCore transactions.
Note Payable to Cardelco
On December 31, 2007, we entered into a short-term promissory note with Cardelco, LLC (Cardelco) in the amount of $25,000. The note obligated us to make payments in the amount of $5,000 per month starting February 1, 2008 until fully paid. The note did not bear interest unless default occurred, at which time interest would accrue at 10% per annum. This note was part of a lease termination agreement we executed with Cardelco relating to a lease for office space in San Diego, California. The termination agreement consisted of paying $45,000 to Cardelco, $20,000 of which was paid upon agreeing to the termination agreement and $25,000 was paid in form of a short-term promissory note. As of June 30, 2008, we were in default and $5,000 remained unpaid on the note. See also Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, "Financing Arrangements" set forth in Item 7 of this report for additional information regarding the Cardelco transactions.
Receivables Purchase Agreement
On May 12, 2008, we repaid the full amount owing to Silicon Valley Bank pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and the Receivables Purchase Agreement was terminated. See also Note 4 to our Consolidated Financial Statements, Financing Arrangements set forth in Item 7 of this report, for additional information on the Receivables Purchase Agreement.
Commissions Payable
As part of verbal agreements with certain of our independent marketing agents, we periodically place commissions payable on a deferred payment schedule. As of June 30, 2008 we had placed approximately $200,000 of commissions payable on a deferred payment schedule with interest accumulating at a rate of 10% per annum. These marketing agents have agreed to allow us to retain accrued commissions that normally would have been paid to them and use those amounts for our working capital purposes. We have verbally agreed to repay these commissions plus interest when requested by the participating agents. Accrued interest expense, relating to these commissions payable, as of June 30, 2008 was $2,180.
Subsequent Borrowings
Subsequent to June 30, 2008, we obtained an advance of $100,000 in cash funds for use as working capital from Little Hollow Farms, Inc., a company that is affiliated with our Chief Executive Officer. It is our intention that the full amount of the advance will be included as a portion of our next round of equity funding. Currently, we have not reached an agreement with the lender regarding the repayment or conversion of the advances.
Critical Accounting Policies
We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and the understanding of our results of operations. In the ordinary course of business, we have made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of our financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Actual results will differ, and could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that the following discussion addresses our most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the accurate portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and require our most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Our critical accounting policies are as follows:
* marketing commissions receivable;
*
valuation of long-lived assets;
*
commissions payable; and
*
revenue recognition.
*
share-based compensation expense
12
Marketing Commissions Receivable
Marketing commissions receivable represent amounts due from outside vendors of telecommunication products . Typically outside vendors pay commissions due to us 45 to 60 days after the usage month-end. As indicated below, we recognize these commissions receivable at the time they are earned. Marketing commissions receivable balance at June 30, 2008 was $437,752, net of allowance for bad debt of $164,604.
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
Our intangible assets consist of intellectual property and employment and non-compete agreements relating to the acquisition of the assets of Commission River, Inc. The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based upon the lower of discounted future cash flow projections or the amount paid in an arms length transaction. These intangible assets are amortized over 3 years on a straight-line basis. Amortization expense totaled $155,554 and $0 for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The weighted-average remaining useful life of the intangible assets was 29 months as of June 30, 2008.
We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our intangible assets and review these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The determination of impairment is based on estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. If an intangible asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset.
Commissions Payable
Commissions payable represent amounts due to agents for commissions related to the usage or sales for which we are due marketing commissions revenue from our outside vendors. It is our policy to pay commissions to our agents only after receiving commissions due from our outside vendors, although we book the obligation to pay such commissions at the time of the sale. This policy results in approximately two months commission payable at any point in time.
Revenue Recognition
Marketing commissions revenue is recognized at the time the customer has been accepted by the vendor and/or received the product from the vendor or is under contract with the vendor and receiving the services. In those cases where services continue over future periods, revenue is recognized when delivery of service to the customer has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection by the vendor from the customer has been made or is probable and the vendor payment of commissions to us is probable.
Share-Based Compensation Expense
Effective July 1, 2007, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)), using the modified-prospective transition method. There were no share-based payments granted during the year ended June 30, 2008 and therefore no costs associated with share-base compensation. Prior to July 1, 2007, we applied Accounting Principles Board (Opinion No. 25), and related interpretations in accounting for our stock-based compensation plans. Results for prior periods have not been restated.
Applying SFAS No. 123(R), we estimate the fair value of stock options as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We use historical data to estimate option exercises and employee termination in the option pricing model. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option pricing model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock and other factors.
13
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect SFAS No. 157 to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect SFAS No. 159 to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations , which establishes principles for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in a business combination, and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of a business combination. We are required to apply this standard prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after May 1, 2009. We do not expect our adoption of SFAS No. 141R to have a material impact on our 2010 consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements . SFAS No. 160 requires noncontrolling ownership interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity. In addition, it requires that the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the statement of operations. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We do not expect our adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a material impact on our 2010 consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No.161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging ActivitiesAn Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 . This standard applies to derivative instruments, nonderivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments and related hedged items accounted for under SFAS No. 133. It does not change the accounting for derivatives and hedging activities, but requires enhanced disclosures concerning the effect on the financial statements from their use. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Currently, we do not have any instruments that would be impacted by this standard.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any transactions, obligations, or relationships that would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
BayHill Capital Corporation
South Jordan, Utah
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of BayHill Capital Corporation (the Company) and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. 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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated 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 audits 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. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of BayHill Capital Corporation and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced circumstances which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Managements plans regarding those matters also are described in Note 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BayHill Capital Corporation (we, us or BHCC), formerly Cognigen Networks, Inc., was incorporated in May 1983 in the State of Colorado. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Commission River Corporation (Commission River), we market and sell services and products through commission-based marketing agents who use the Internet as a platform to provide customers and subscribers with a variety of telecommunications and technology-based products and services. Historically, we have generated revenues in two ways:
First, we have generated marketing commission revenues from vendors who are represented on web sites operated by independent agents and for whom we sell products and services via contractual agreements. Generally, we enter into contractual agreements with these vendors, who pay us commissions based on the volume of products and services sold by our independent sales agents. We then pay a portion of those commission revenues to the independent sales agents responsible for making the sales upon which the commissions were based. A significant portion of our commission revenues is attributable to the sale of domestic long distance services and commercial telecommunications services; however, we also generate commission revenues from the sale of wireless communications, residential broadband services, Voice over Internet (VoIP) services and prepaid calling cards/PINs.
Second, we have, at times also generated revenues from sales of proprietary products and services. Generally, we have acquired or developed these proprietary products and services with the intention of marketing such products and services through our independent agent network. These products and services have included long distance telecommunication services, online shopping websites and broadband voice, data, video and management communication and control support services. Most of these products have been sold by independent agents, and we have generally paid commissions to independent agents based on the dollar volume of products sold. Currently we do not offer any proprietary products or services. We regularly look for opportunities to acquire or develop proprietary products or services. If we identify any proprietary products or services which we believe we could market profitably, we may offer proprietary products or services in the future.
On March 31, 2008, we held a special meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved a series of proposals previously approved by our Board of Directors. These proposals consisted of (i) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse split of the outstanding shares of our common stock pursuant to which each 50 shares of our pre-split common stock issued and outstanding as of the effective date of the reverse split would be exchanged for one share of our post-split common stock, (ii) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 300,000,000 shares, $.001 par value per share, to 100,000,000 shares, $.0001 par value per share, and the number of authorized shares of our preferred stock from 20,000,000 shares, no par value per share, to 400,000 shares, $.0001 par value per share, (iii) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to BayHill Capital Corporation and make other changes necessary to facilitate the foregoing actions and the re-incorporation of BHCC, (iv) a proposal to re-incorporate BHCC under the laws of the State of Delaware, and (v) a proposal to adopt the Cognigen Networks, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan.
Based upon the approval of our shareholders at the March 31, 2008 special meeting, effective April 23, 2008 our management completed the actions necessary to effect the name change, reverse stock split, Delaware re-incorporation and reduction in the number of authorized shares of common and preferred stock. Our common stock began trading on April 23, 2008 on a post-split basis under the symbol "BYHL." All share and per-share amounts reflected in this report have been restated to reflect the 1 for 50 reverse stock split unless otherwise indicated.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, the Company issued to BayHill Capital, LC, which was managed by two of our executives, 703,930 shares of common stock for conversions of a series of notes. In addition, the Company issued to Commission River, Inc., which is owned by two executives of our wholly owned subsidiary, 320,000 shares of common stock pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement. These shares represent approximately 37% and 17% respectively of the outstanding common stock at June 30, 2008.
Principles of Consolidation
Our accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of BHCC, Commission River and two former subsidiaries, LowestCostMall.com (LCM) and Cognigen Business Systems, Inc. (CBSi). For purposes of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, LCM and CBSi have been treated as discontinued operations. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation (see Note 2 to these consolidated financial statements).
F-7
Marketing Commissions Receivable
Marketing commissions receivable represent amounts due from outside vendors of telecommunication products. Typically outside vendors pay commissions due to us 45 to 60 days after the usage month-end.
We established an allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2008 to provide for potential uncollectible accounts receivable determined to be uncollectible of $164,604.
Commission revenue from our two largest vendors generated approximately 60% and 47%, respectively, of our total revenue for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Of the above percentages, 45% and 24% of our revenue respectively, were generated from Telarus, Inc. which is owned by two executive officers of Commission River.
Intangible Assets
On November 30, 2007, we acquired the assets of Commission River, Inc. in an asset purchase transaction. The assets acquired consisted of intellectual property valued at $400,000 and employment and non-compete agreements valued at $400,000. We amortize these intangible assets over their estimated useful lives of three years on a straight-line basis. The net carrying amount and future estimated amortization expense as of June 30, 2008 was as follows:
Gross Carrying | Accumulated | |||||||||
Amortized intangible assets | Amount | Amortization | Net Intangibles | |||||||
Intellectual Property | $ | 400,000 | $ | 77,777 | $ | 322,223 | ||||
Employment and non-compete agreements | $ | 400,000 | 77,777 | $ | 322,223 | |||||
$ | 800,000 | $ | 155,554 | $ | 644,446 | |||||
Estimated | ||||||||||
Amortization | ||||||||||
Year ending June 30, | Expense | |||||||||
2009 | $ | 266,664 | ||||||||
2010 | 266,664 | |||||||||
2011 | 111,118 | |||||||||
Total | $ | 644,446 |
The fair value of identifiable intangible assets is based upon the lower of discounted future cash flow projections or the amount paid in an arms length transaction. These intangible assets are amortized over 3 years on a straight-line basis. Amortization expense totaled $155,554 and $0 for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively. The weighted-average remaining useful life of the intangible assets was 29 months as of June 30, 2008.
We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our intangible assets and review these assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. The determination of impairment is based on estimates of future undiscounted cash flows. If an intangible asset is considered to be impaired, the amount of the impairment will be equal to the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset.
Commissions Payable
Commissions payable represent amounts due to agents for commissions related to the usage or sales for which we are due marketing commissions revenue from its outside vendors. It is our current policy to pay commissions to our agents only after receiving commissions due from its outside vendors. This policy results in approximately two months commission payable at any point in time.
F - 8
Share-based Compensation
Effective July 1, 2007, we adopted the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment (SFAS No. 123(R)), using the modified-prospective transition method. There were no share-based payments granted during the year ended June 30, 2008 and therefore no costs associated with share-base compensation. Prior to July 1, 2007, we applied Accounting Principles Board (Opinion No. 25), and related interpretations in accounting for our stock-based compensation plans. Results for prior periods have not been restated.
Applying SFAS No. 123(R), we estimate the fair value of stock options as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. We use historical data to estimate option exercises and employee termination in the option pricing model. The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the option pricing model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of our common stock and other factors.
Income Taxes
We recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets based on the differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements that will result in taxable or deductible amounts in future years. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. All allowances against deferred income tax assets are recorded in whole or in part, when it is more likely than not those deferred income tax assets will not be realized.
Marketing Commissions Revenue
Marketing commissions revenue is recognized at the time the customer has been accepted by the vendor and/or received the product from the vendor or is under contract with the vendor and receiving the services. In those cases where services continue over future periods, revenue is recognized when delivery of service to the customer has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection by the vendor from the customer has been made or is probable and the vendor payment of commissions to us is probable.
Advertising Costs
We expense advertising costs as incurred. Total advertising costs for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were $16,067 and $32,361, respectively.
Loss Per Share
Basic loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders for the period by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per common share, where applicable, is computed giving effect to all dilutive common stock equivalents, primarily common stock options and warrants. All potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect on diluted per share amounts are excluded in determining the diluted loss per common share. Stock options and warrants exercisable into 18,500 and 30,540 common shares as of June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per common share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures 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 will differ, and could differ materially from those estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after
F - 9
November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect SFAS No. 157 to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. We do not expect SFAS No. 159 to have an impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations , which establishes principles for how an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination, recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in a business combination, and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of a business combination. We are required to apply this standard prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after May 1, 2009. We do not expect our adoption of SFAS No. 141R to have a material impact on our 2010 consolidated financial statements.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements . SFAS No. 160 requires noncontrolling ownership interests (previously referred to as minority interests) to be treated as a separate component of equity, not as a liability or other item outside of permanent equity. In addition, it requires that the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the statement of operations. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. We do not expect our adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a material impact on our 2010 consolidated financial statements.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No.161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging ActivitiesAn Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 . This standard applies to derivative instruments, nonderivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments and related hedged items accounted for under SFAS No. 133. It does not change the accounting for derivatives and hedging activities, but requires enhanced disclosures concerning the effect on the financial statements from their use. This standard is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. Currently, we do not have any instruments that would be impacted by this standard.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 2007 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2008 presentation.
NOTE 2 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
LowestCostMall
In July 2005, we formed LCM, an online shopping website. In July 2006, we terminated our agreement with Vcommerce, and discontinued LCM operations. In June 2007, we reached an agreement with Vcommerce in which we paid Vcommerce $60,000 for satisfaction of approximately $112,000 of liabilities payable to Vcommerce for a gain on satisfaction of debt of $52,714.
Cognigen Business Systems, Inc.
During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2007 and June 30, 2006 and the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007, we generated revenue from CBSis operations in the amount of $58,463, $0 and $15,233, respectively. During the same period (July 1, 2005 through September 30, 2007), we incurred in excess of $600,000 in expenses associated with the CBSi operations. After reviewing the activities and operations of CBSi, our Board of Directors concluded that the large losses generated by CBSi, and the projected amount of cash required to develop and market the intended CBSi products, did not warrant further investment in CBSi or continued marketing and sale of the CBSi products. Our Board of Directors determined that it was in the best interests of BHCC and our shareholders to focus our efforts on continuing to develop its historical agent marketing business and, on August 31, 2007 we sold our its 100% ownership in CBSi to Carl Silva and ABP, for 24,921 shares of our common stock valued at $56,196 and the retention of $30,844 of CBSi-related accounts payable. In conjunction with this sale, the employment agreement and all benefits related thereto with Carl Silva were terminated and or relinquished. All other agreements with ABP were also terminated. The 24,921 shares of our common stock we received in the transaction were cancelled.

Sale of Proprietary Telecommunications Accounts
On October 13, 2006, we sold our interest in the majority of our telecommunications one plus accounts for which we recorded telecommunications revenue through sales of proprietary products and services. We recorded a gain of approximately $230,000, net of commissions of $9,000 on its sale of these assets.

NOTE 3 GOING CONCERN
Cash flows generated from operations, advances pursuant to our financing arrangements and cash from the issuance of notes payable to BayHill Capital, LC were sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the year ended June 30, 2008, but will not likely be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements for the foreseeable future or provide for expansion opportunities. We had a working capital deficit of $895,782 as of June 30, 2008, incurred $2,337,301 in losses from continuing operations, losses of $44,590 from discontinued operations, and used $186,621 in cash flows from operations for the year ended June 30, 2008. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Throughout the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, BayHill Capital, LC and Vector Capital LLC extended to us a series of loans in the form of short-term and convertible notes in the amount of $695,000. All of these notes, together with $250,000 of notes outstanding as of June 30, 2007 and accrued interest, were converted into 744,330 shares of our common stock in multiple transactions during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008 (see Note 6 to these consolidated financial statements).
Subsequent to June 30, 2008, we obtained an advance of $100,000 in cash funds for use as working capital from Little Hollow Farms, Inc., a company that is affiliated with our Chief Executive Officer. It is our intention that the full amount of the advance will be included as a portion of our next round of equity funding. Currently, we have not reached an agreement with the lender regarding the repayment or conversion of the advances.
In order to continue as a going concern, we plan to obtain additional debt or equity financing, increase revenues, and increase cash flows from operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to secure additional debt or equity financing, that we will be able to reduce our operating costs and expenses, or that cash flows from operations will produce adequate cash flow to enable us to meet all our future obligations or to be able to expand. If we are unable to obtain additional debt or equity financing, we may be required to significantly reduce or cease operations.

NOTE 4 FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Our financing arrangements as of June 30, 2008 consisted of:
Secured Term Loan with VenCore | $ | 166,614 |
Note Payable to Cardelco | 5,000 | |
$ | 171,614 |
Secured Term Loan with VenCore Solutions, Inc.
On October 10, 2006, we entered into an agreement with VenCore Solutions, Inc. (VenCore) to borrow $250,000 under a term loan to be repaid by making monthly payments of $9,000, which included interest at 16.7% per annum. The loan was fully amortizable over 36 months. The loan documents contained certain covenants, which included the requirement of VenCores approval of the disposition of any of our material assets, a prohibition against our incurrence of additional liens on our assets or the change of creditors. As part of our agreement with VenCore, we issued to VenCore warrants to purchase 1,500 shares of our restricted common stock valued at $5,093. The warrants have an exercise price of $6.00 per share and are exercisable for up to seven years from date of grant. We granted VenCore a lien on substantially all of our assets. We also paid to VenCore commitment and documentation fees of $5,500. These fees were amortized over three years as an adjustment to interest expense. As of June 30, 2008 the remaining principal and accrued interest balance was $166,614. In July 2008 we entered in to a Payment Restructure Agreement with VenCore whereby VenCore converted $83,500 of the term loan into an unsecured 12% convertible note due September 30, 2009 which is convertible, at the option of VenCore, into no more than 66,800 shares of our common stock. The interest on this convertible note is payable at our option in common stock priced at a value of $1.25 per share. In addition, VenCore was granted a two-year warrant to purchase 20,875 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.00 per share. The remaining original note balance of $83,321, along with interest at 16.7%, is to be paid in monthly payments of an amount equal to the greater of $5,000 per month or 10% of any debt or equity funding we receive in any given month. We paid VenCore $1,000 for documentation fees in relation to the Payment Restructure Agreement, which was expensed. Based on a calculation using the Black Scholes Model, we believe that during the year ending June 30, 2009 the conversion feature within this convertible promissory note and warrants will result in us recording a beneficial conversion feature of, approximately $14,000 and an increase to debt discount, which will be accreted to interest expense over the term of the note.
Note Payable to Cardelco
On December 31, 2007, we entered into a short-term promissory note with Cardelco, LLC (Cardelco) in the amount of $25,000. The note obligated us to make payments in the amount of $5,000 per month starting February 1, 2008 until fully paid. The note did not bear interest unless default occurred, at which time interest would accrue at 10% per annum. This note was part of a lease termination agreement we executed with Cardelco relating to a lease for office space in San Diego, California. The termination agreement consisted of paying $45,000 to Cardelco, $20,000 of which was paid upon agreeing to the termination agreement and $25,000 was paid in form of a short-term promissory note. As of June 30, 2008, we were in default and $5,000 remained unpaid on the note.
Receivables Purchase Agreement
On December 26, 2003, we entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank which, as subsequently amended, provided for up to $1,000,000 in marketing commissions receivable to be used as collateral for advances under the Receivables Purchase Agreement, of which 80% of the marketing commissions receivable balances were available in cash advances to us. Interest charges were 1.5% per month on the marketing commissions receivable balances used as collateral. Silicon Valley Bank was given a first-position security interest in our assets, including all of our copyrights, trademarks, patents and mask works, as a condition to the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The Receivables Purchase Agreement contains certain positive and negative covenants with respect to our business operations, including but not limited to, the requirement of Silicon Valley Banks approval to the disposition of assets, change in ownership and additional indebtedness. We paid facility, audit and due diligence fees to Silicon Valley Bank upon renewal of the Receivables Purchase Agreement in March of 2007 of approximately $7,000 and extension fees in March 2008 of $2,500. These amounts were amortized into interest expense over one year. Silicon Valley Bank did not renew the Receivables Purchase Agreement and demanded that we repay the outstanding balance by May 8, 2008. On May 12, 2008, we repaid the full amount owing to Silicon Valley Bank pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, and the Receivables Purchase Agreement was terminated.
F - 12
Financing Subsequent to June 30, 2008
Subsequent to June 30, 2008, we obtained an advance of $100,000 in cash funds for use as working capital from Little Hollow Farms, Inc., a company that is affiliated with our Chief Executive Officer. It is our intention that the full amount of the advance will be included as a portion of our next round of equity funding. Currently, we have not reached an agreement with the lender regarding the repayment or conversion of the advances.
Commissions Payable
As part of verbal agreements with certain of our independent marketing agents, we periodically place commissions payable on a deferred payment schedule. As of June 30, 2008 we had placed approximately $200,000 of commissions payable on a deferred payment schedule with interest accumulating at a rate of 10% per annum. These marketing agents have agreed to allow us to use accrued commissions that normally would have been paid to them for our working capital purposes. We have verbally agreed to repay these commissions plus interest when requested by the participating agents. Accrued interest expense, relating to these commissions payable, as of June 30, 2008 was $2,180.
NOTE 5 - INCOME TAXES
We recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in its financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using the enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by the amount of any tax benefits that are not expected to be realized based on available evidence.
Temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of our assets result primarily from differing depreciation and amortization, provision for doubtful accounts, net operating loss carry forwards and the recognition of certain expenses for financial statement purposes and not for tax purposes. We had approximately $4,000,000 of net operating loss carry forwards as of June 30, 2008, which expire in varying amounts through 2028, if unused. A change in our ownership of more than 50% occurred during the year ended June 30, 2008. As such, according to the Internal Revenue Code, our net operating loss carry forwards may be limited as to their utilization in future periods.
Temporary differences and carry forwards giving rise to a significant portion of deferred tax assets (liabilities) at June 30, 2008 were as follows:
Assets: | ||||
Current | ||||
Allowance for doubtful accounts | $ | 55,965 | ||
Vacation accruals | 5,106 | |||
$ | 61,071 | |||
Long-term | ||||
Accrued compensation | 13,124 | |||
Intangibles | 52,888 | |||

Net operating loss carry forwards | 1,339,467 | |||
Less valuation allowance | (1,600,000 | ) | ||
$ | - |
As discussed in Note 1 to these consolidated financial statements, during the year ended June 30, 2008, the Company entered into a series of stock transactions that have culminated in a 50% change in control in the ownership of our common stock. Our ability to utilize the full benefit or our net operating losses for tax purposes may be limited due to the changes in control.
The following is a reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate applied to pre-tax accounting net loss compared to the income taxes in the consolidated statements of operations:

Effective July 1, 2007, we adopted the provision of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting of Uncertainty in Income Taxes-An Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. Under FIN 48, we must recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. We measure the tax benefits recognized in the consolidated financial statements from such a position based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The application of income tax law is inherently complex. Laws and regulation in this area are voluminous and are often ambiguous. As such, we are required to make many subjective assumptions and judgments regarding our income tax exposures. Interpretations of and guidance surrounding income tax law and regulation change over time and may result in changes to our subjective assumptions and judgments which can materially affect amounts recognized in our consolidated financial statements. The result of the assessment of our tax positions in accordance with FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2008. Our federal tax returns for all years after June 30, 2004 and state tax returns after June 30, 2003 are subject to future examination by tax authorities for all our tax jurisdictions. It is our policy to record costs associated with interest and penalties related to tax in the selling, general and administrative line of the consolidated statements of operations.
NOTE 6 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
Special Meeting of the Shareholders
On March 31, 2008, we held a special meeting of shareholders at which our shareholders approved a series of proposals previously approved by our Board of Directors. These proposals consisted of (i) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to effect a reverse split of the outstanding shares of our common stock pursuant to which each 50 shares of our pre-split common stock issued and outstanding as of the effective date of the reverse split would be exchanged for one share of our post-split common stock, (ii) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of our common stock from 300,000,000 shares, $.001 par value per share, to 100,000,000 shares, $.0001 par value per share, and the number of authorized shares of our preferred stock from 20,000,000 shares, no par value per share, to 400,000 shares, $.0001 par value per share, (iii) a proposal to amend our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to BayHill Capital Corporation and make other changes necessary to facilitate the foregoing actions and the re-incorporation of BHCC, (iv) a proposal to re-incorporate BHCC under the laws of the State of Delaware, and (v) a proposal to adopt the Cognigen Networks, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan.
Based upon the approval of our shareholders at the March 31, 2008 special meeting, effective April 23, 2008 our management completed the actions necessary to effect the name change, reverse stock split, Delaware re-incorporation and reduction in the number of authorized shares of common and preferred stock. Our common stock began trading on April 23, 2008 on a post-split basis under the symbol "BYHL." All share and per-share amounts reflected in this report have been restated to reflect the 1 for 50 reverse stock split unless otherwise indicated.
Preferred Stock
On October 17, 2002 we issued 10,000 shares of 8% Convertible Series A Preferred Stock (the Series A Preferred Stock) to Stanford International Bank Limited for $500,000. Each share of the Series A Preferred Stock was convertible, at the option of the holder, into one share of our common stock for a period of five years. After five years, all of the issued and outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock were automatically converted to shares of our common stock. The Series A Preferred Stock did not have voting rights and had a liquidation preference of $50.00 per share. All of the issued and outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock were automatically converted into 10,000 shares of our common stock on October 14, 2007 according to the terms of the Series A Preferred Stock and the 10,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock were cancelled.

As of June 30, 2008 we had authorized 400,000 shares of Preferred Stock. There were no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding as of June 30, 2008.

ITEM 8A Controls and Procedures.
Managements Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of June 30, 2008, the end of our fiscal year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report. This report and our controls were reviewed by our audit committee with no further suggestions for changes.
Managements Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act, as amended). In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with managements authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2008. Our management has concluded that, as of June 30, 2008, our internal control over financial reporting is effective in providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Managements report was not subject to attestation by our independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only managements report in this annual report.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Corporate Governance
Our Board of Directors has standing Audit and Compensation Committees. To date, our Board of Directors has not established a Nominating or Governance Committee, in part because our Board of Directors believes that, at this stage of our development, all of our directors should be actively involved in the matters which would be addressed by such a committee. We may, in the future, establish a Nominating or Governance Committee. We believe each of the directors serving on our Audit and Compensation Committees is an independent director pursuant to NASD Rule 4200(a)(15) and that each of the directors serving on the Compensation Committee is an independent director for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. In evaluating the independence of James U. Jensen, the Chairman of our Board of Directors, and a member of our Compensation Committee, our Board of Directors reviewed and considered the relationship between Clearwater Governance LLC, a limited liability company of which Mr. Jensen is a principal (ClearWater), a firm that provides administrative and corporate governance support to small publicly-traded companies, including BHCC. Based upon its review, our Board of Directors (with Mr. Jensen abstaining) concluded that the compensation we paid to ClearWater was fair and reasonable and priced competitively and that the services ClearWater provides to us are in the best interests of BHCC and our shareholders. Our Board of Directors concluded that the compensation we paid to ClearWater is substantially below the amount specified in regulations that would make Mr. Jensen a non-independent director and unanimously determined (with Mr. Jensen abstaining) that Mr. Jensen is an independent director.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008, our Board of Directors held 11 meetings. No director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and of any committee on which he served. It is our policy that our directors should attend annual meetings of our shareholders. All of our current directors attended our annual meeting of shareholders held on December 10, 2007.
Audit Committee. John D. Thomas and Roy D. Banks serve as members of the Audit Committee, with Mr. Thomas serving as Chair. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Banks satisfies the criteria for an audit committee financial expert under Rule 401(e) of Regulation S-B promulgated by the SEC. Each member of our Audit Committee is able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including our consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations and statements of cash flows. The functions of the Audit Committee are primarily to: (a) facilitate the integrity of our financial statements and internal controls, (b) oversee our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements related to accounting and/or financial controls, (c) evaluate our independent registered public accounting firms qualifications and independence, (d) oversee the performance of our internal audit function and the independent registered public accounting firm, and (e) review our systems of disclosure controls and procedures, internal controls over financial reporting, and compliance with ethical standards related to accounting and/or financial controls we have adopted. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for our Audit Committee, a copy of which is available on the Companys website, www.bayhillcapital.com . Except as otherwise required by applicable laws, regulations or listing standards or our Audit Committee Charter, major decisions regarding our activities and operations are considered by our Board of Directors as a whole. Our Audit Committee met three times during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2008.
Compensation Committee. John M. Knab and James U. Jensen serve as members of the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, with Mr. Knab serving as Chair. The functions of our Compensation Committee are primarily to: (a) to oversee
19
the discharge the responsibilities of the Board relating to compensation, and (b) to ensure that our compensation plans, programs and values transferred through cash pay, stock and stock-based awards, whether immediate, deferred, or contingent are fair and appropriate to attract, retain and motivate management and are reasonable in view of company economics and of the relevant practices of other, similar companies. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for our Compensation Committee, a copy of which is available on the Companys website, www.bayhillcapital.com . The Compensation Committee met once during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008.
Director Nominations . Our Board of Directors will consider recommendations for director nominees by shareholders if the names of those nominees and relevant biographical information are submitted in writing to our Corporate Secretary in the manner described for shareholder nominations below under the heading Proposals of Shareholders. All director nominations, whether submitted by a shareholder or the Board of Directors, will be evaluated in the same manner.
Code of Ethics
On May 12, 2008, our Board of Directors adopted a new Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the Code of Ethics) to replace our previous Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The Code of Ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing by our employees and to promote honest and ethical conduct, full, fair and accurate disclosure, compliance with laws, prompt internal reporting and accountability to adherence to the Code of Ethics. The Code of Ethics is applicable to all of our employees, as well as employees of our subsidiaries, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer. A copy of the Code of Ethics is being filed with SEC as Exhibit 14.1 to this report and is posted on the Companys website, www.bayhillcapital.com .

ITEM 14 Principal Accountant Fees and Services.
For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, we were billed fees in the following amounts for services by Ehrhardt Keefe Steiner & Hottman PC (EKS&H), our independent registered public accounting firm.
Fiscal Year | Fiscal Year | ||
Ended | Ended | ||
June 30, 2008 | June 30, 2007 | ||
Audit fees (including fees for review of quarterly 10QSBs) | $71,000 | $66,500 | |
Audit-related fees | $3,000 | $0 | |
Tax fees | $8,500 | $6,500 | |
All other fees | $6,700 | $0 |
Audit fees consist of EKS&Hs fees for services related to their audits of our annual financial statements, including managements assessment, their review of financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-QSB, EKS&Hs review of SEC-filed registration statements and issuance of consents, and comfort letters. Audit-related fees consist primarily of fees rendered for services in connection with employee benefit plan audits and consultation regarding financial accounting and reporting standards. Tax fees consist of fees rendered for services on tax compliance matters, including tax return preparation, claims for refund and assistance with tax audits of previously filed tax returns, tax consulting and advisory services consisting primarily of tax advice rendered by EKS&H in connection with the formulation of our tax strategy and assistance in minimizing custom, duty and import taxes. Audit fees related to the annual financial statements were $30,000 and $36,000, respectively, for the years ended June 30, 2008 and June 30, 2007. Additionally, for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively, audit fees included $28,500 and $30,500 related to reviews of Forms 10-QSB and $12,500 and $0, respectively, related to the audit of Commission River financial statements. Tax compliance and preparation fees were $8,500 and $6,500 respectively, for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Assistance provided related to research, SEC comment letters and other miscellaneous items were $6,700 and $0, respectively, for the years ended June 30, 2008 and 2007.
All audit, audit-related, tax, and any other services performed for us by our independent registered public accounting firm are subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and were pre-approved by the Audit Committee prior to such services being rendered. Our Audit Committee determined that the services provided by, and fees paid to, EKS&H were compatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firms independence.
Shareholder ratification of the selection of EKS&H as our independent registered public accounting firm is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise. However, the Audit Committee intends to submit the selection of EKS&H to our shareholders for ratification at our upcoming annual meeting of shareholders as a matter of good corporate governance. If our shareholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of BHCC and our shareholders.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT (1)
The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors has reviewed and discussed with management our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2008.
The Audit Committee discussed with EKS&H, our independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61. The Audit Committee has received, reviewed, and discussed with EKS&H the written disclosures and the letter from them required by Independence Standards Board Statement No. 1 and discussed with EKS&H their independence.
Based upon these reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee has recommended to our Board of Directors, and our Board of Directors has approved, that our audited financial statements be included in this report.

EXHIBIT 14.1
BayHill Capital Corporation
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Summary
The BayHill Capital Corporation Code of Business Conduct and Ethics outlines the principles, policies and laws that govern the activities of the company, and to which our employees and others who work with, or represent us directly or indirectly, must adhere. All employees of BayHill Capital Corporation, its subsidiaries and their affiliates (BayHill) are required to read and follow this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the Code).
Administration
The BayHill Board of Directors is responsible for setting the standards of business conduct contained in this Code and updating these standards as it deems appropriate to reflect changes in the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company, the business practices within the companys industry, the companys own business practices, and the prevailaing ethical standards of the communities in which the company operates. While the companys President will oversee the procedures designed to implement this Code, it is the individuals responsibility to comply with this Code.
Introduction
BayHill expects all of its representatives to act in accordance with the highest standards of personal and professional integrity in all aspects of their activities and to comply with all applicable laws, regulations and company policies. We must never compromise that integrity, either for personal benefit or for BayHills purported benefit. In accepting a position with BayHill, each of us becomes accountable for compliance with the law, with this Code, and with other policies of BayHill. This Code applies to all BayHill representatives, including its directors, employees, temporary workers, independent contractors and consultants.
If you have any questions about the Code, you should discuss them with your supervisor; the Compliance Officer, human resources representative, or other person designated by BayHill. Waivers may be granted to executive officers or directors, however, any waiver may be made only by the Board of Directors and must be disclosed promptly in a filing with the SEC.
BayHill expects you to act in full compliance with the policies set forth in this Code and in a manner consistent with the highest ethical standards. Failure to observe these policies may result in disciplinary action, up to and including immediate termination of employment or other relationship with BayHill. Furthermore, violations of this Code may also be violations of the law and may result in civil or criminal penalties for you, your supervisors and/or BayHill.
This Code neither constitutes nor should be construed to constitute a contract of employment for a definite term or a guarantee of continued employment.
1. Responsibilities to BayHill
1.1 Raising Ethical Issues
Maintaining ethical standards, including appropriate accounting and internal accounting controls, is the responsibility of every member of the BayHill family. Early identification and resolution of ethical issues that may arise are critical to maintaining our commitment to world-class business practices. BayHill personnel and other representatives are expected to treat compliance with ethical standards as a critical element of their responsibilities. Although this Code endeavors to address a wide range of business practices and procedures, BayHill cannot anticipate every issue that may arise. If you are unsure of what to do in any situation, you should seek additional guidance and information before you act. You should use your judgment and common sense; if something seems unethical or improper, it probably is.

If you have any questions regarding the best course of action in a particular situation, or if you suspect or become aware of a possible violation of a law, regulation or ethical standard, you should promptly contact your supervisor, a human resources representative, the Compliance Officer, or a member of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors.
You may report violations of this Code, on a confidential or anonymous basis, by contacting the Audit Committee by e-mail at:
auditcommitee@bayhillcapital.com.
While we prefer that you identify yourself when reporting violations so that we may follow-up with you, as necessary, for additional information, you may leave messages anonymously if you wish.
BayHill strongly encourages its personnel and other representatives to raise possible ethical issues. BayHill prohibits any retaliatory action against any individual for raising legitimate concerns or questions regarding ethics, discrimination or harassment matters or for reporting suspected violations.
1.2 Investigations
You are required to cooperate fully with any appropriately authorized internal or external investigations, including but not limited to those involving ethical issues or complaints of discrimination or harassment. Making false statements to or otherwise misleading internal or external auditors, BayHill counsel, BayHill representatives or regulators is grounds for immediate termination of employment or other relationship with BayHill and may also be a criminal act that can result in severe penalties. You must never withhold or fail to communicate information that raises ethical questions and thus should be brought to the attention of higher levels of management. In addition, you are required to report suspected insider trading, fraud or attempted fraud, and any mysterious disappearance of funds or securities immediately.
1.3 Protecting BayHill Assets
You are responsible for safeguarding the tangible and intangible assets of BayHill and its clients, suppliers and distributors that are under your control. BayHill assets may be used only for proper company purposes. Assets include cash, securities, business plans, client information, supplier information, distributor information, intellectual property, physical property and services.
Misappropriation of BayHill assets is a breach of your duty to BayHill and may constitute an act of fraud against BayHill. Similarly, carelessness or waste with regard to BayHill assets is also a breach of your duty to BayHill.
BayHills telephone, e-mail, voice-mail and computer systems are primarily for business purposes. You may not use these systems in a manner that could be harmful or embarrassing to BayHill. Personal communications using these systems must be kept to a minimum.
All BayHill employees are required to disclose and assign to BayHill all interest in any invention, improvement, discovery or work of authorship you make or conceive that arises out of or in connection with your employment with BayHill. If your employment is terminated, all rights to property and information generated or obtained as part of your employment relationship remain the exclusive property of BayHill. Copying, selling, using or distributing information, software and other forms of intellectual property in violation of license agreements is prohibited.
1.4 Accuracy of Records and Reporting
The records, data and information owned, collected, used and managed by BayHill must be accurate and complete. You are personally responsible for the integrity of the information, reports and records under your control. Records must be maintained in sufficient detail as to reflect accurately all BayHill transactions. Financial statements must always be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and fairly present, in all material respects, BayHills financial condition and results. You must use common sense and observe standards of good taste regarding content and language when creating business records and other documents (such as e-mail) that may be retained by BayHill or a third party. You should keep in mind that at a future date, BayHill or a third party may be in a position to rely on or interpret the document with the benefit of hindsight and/or the disadvantage of imperfect recollections. You are prohibited from destroying any records that are
2

Adopted by the Board May 12, 2008
potentially relevant to a violation of law or any litigation or any pending, threatened or foreseeable government investigation or proceeding.
2. Workplace Responsibilities
2.1 Fair Employment Practices and Diversity
BayHill believes that diversity in our staff is critical to our success and we seek to recruit, develop and retain the most talented people from a diverse candidate pool. Advancement at BayHill is based on talent and performance. We are fully committed to equal employment opportunity and compliance with the letter and spirit of the full range of fair employment practices and nondiscrimination laws. In addition, retaliation against individuals for raising claims of discrimination or harassment is prohibited.
2.2 Discrimination and Harassment
BayHill values a work environment where diversity is embraced, and where our employees differences are valued and respected. We prohibit sexual or any other kind of discrimination, harassment or intimidation, whether committed by or against a supervisor, co-worker, client, vendor or visitor. Discrimination and harassment, whether based on a persons race, gender, gender identity or expression, color, creed, religion, national origin, citizenship, age, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, ancestry, veteran status or socioeconomic status, are completely inconsistent with our tradition of providing a respectful, professional and dignified workplace.
You must never use BayHill systems to transmit or receive electronic images or text of a sexual nature or containing ethnic slurs, racial epithets or any other material of a harassing, offensive or lewd nature. If you believe that you are being subjected to discrimination or harassment, or if you observe or receive a complaint regarding such behavior, you should report it to your supervisor or a human resources representative, or other senior manager. BayHill will promptly investigate all allegations of harassment or discrimination and will take appropriate corrective action to the fullest extent permitted by local law. Retaliation against individuals for raising claims of harassment or discrimination is prohibited.
2.3 Drug-Free Workplace
To meet our responsibilities to employees, clients and investors, BayHill must maintain a healthy and productive work environment. Misusing controlled substances or selling, manufacturing, distributing, possessing, using or being under the influence of illegal drugs on the job is prohibited.
2.3 Safety in the Workplace
The safety of people in the workplace is a primary concern of BayHill. Each of us must comply with all applicable health and safety policies. We maintain compliance with all local and international laws, and internal guidelines have been developed to help maintain secure and healthy work surroundings. Questions about these laws and guidelines should be directed to your supervisor or a human resources representative.
3. Representing BayHill to Clients and Other External Constituencies
3.1 Fair Treatment
BayHill is committed to dealing fairly with its clients, suppliers, competitors and employees. No person may take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of confidential information, misrepresentation of material facts or other unfair dealing practice.
3.2 Fiduciary Duties
BayHill acts as a fiduciary in certain client relationships. You should determine when fiduciary duties arise and keep in mind that a fiduciary has a legal duty to act in the best interests of its clientsputting its clients interests ahead of its own interests, or the interests of its affiliates or employees. A fiduciary must disclose conflicts of interest with its clients or, in some cases,
3
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Adopted by the Board May 12, 2008
avoid such conflicts entirely due to legal requirements. A fiduciarys duties also require it to treat clients fairly and not to favor one client over another.
3.3 Medial, Publishing and Public Appearances
Before publishing, making speeches, giving interviews or making public appearances that are connected to BayHills business interests, you must get approval from your supervisor. If a publication, speech, interview or appearance might in any way be connected to your position with BayHill, you must notify a senior member of management.
Only officially designated spokespersons may provide comments for the media. BayHill has issued guidelines to ensure that employees do not violate public disclosure requirements when communicating with investors, analysts or the press. These guidelines are part of BayHills commitment to full compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commissions Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure). To ensure compliance with these guidelines, employees should consult with a senior member of management prior to arranging or participating in any investor or analyst meetings.
3.4 Gifts and Entertainment
Accepting Gifts and Entertainment
In general, you may not accept gifts or the conveyance of anything of value (including entertainment) from current or prospective BayHill clients or suppliers. You may never accept a gift under circumstances in which it could even appear to others that your business judgment has been compromised. Similarly, you may not accept or allow a close family member to accept gifts, services or preferential treatment from anyoneclients, suppliers or othersin exchange for a past, current or future business relationship with BayHill.
Gifts may be accepted when permitted under applicable law if they are (1) noncash gifts of nominal value (less than or equal to $100); (2) customary and reasonable meals and entertainment at which the giver is present, such as the occasional business meal or sporting event; or (3) gifts from family or friends with whom you have a nonbusiness relationship. If you have any question about the appropriateness of accepting a gift or invitation, you should discuss the matter with your supervisor, a senior member of management, or the Compliance Officer prior to acceptance.
Giving Gifts and Providing Entertainment
If a gift could be seen by others as engaging in bribery or a consideration for an official or business favor, you must not give the gift. Appropriate entertainment may be offered to clients by persons authorized to do so, subject to the business expense reimbursement requirements applicable to your business. Many countries, states and local jurisdictions have laws restricting gifts (e.g., meals, entertainment, transportation, lodging or other things of value) that may be provided to government officials. In addition, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (FCPA) outlines very serious provisions against bribery, including the payment, or promise of payment, of anything of value to foreign officials (including any person employed by or representing a foreign government, officials of a foreign political party, officials of public international organizations and candidates for foreign office). Payment made indirectly through a consultant, contractor or other intermediary is also prohibited.
Facilitating payments are small payments to low-level government officials to expedite or secure performance of a nondiscretionary, routine governmental action. There are rules regarding facilitating payments, and many countries prohibit such payments. Facilitating payments may not be made without specific prior approval of the business legal or compliance officer and then only when such payments are not against local law. To ensure compliance with both local laws and the FCPA, gifts to government officials must be precleared with the senior member of management and/or the Compliance Officer. Under no circumstances may you offer anything of value to a government official for the purpose of influencing the recipient to take or refrain from taking any official action, or to induce the recipient to conduct business with BayHill.
3.5 Political Activities and Contributions
You have the right to voluntarily participate in the political process. No one in BayHill may require you to contribute to, support or oppose any political group or candidate. If you choose to participate in the political process, you must do so as an individual, not as a BayHill representative. You may not work on a political fundraiser or other campaign activity while on company time or use BayHill property for these activities. Any overt, visible and partisan political activity that could cause
4
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Adopted by the Board May 12, 2008
someone to believe that your actions reflect the views or position of BayHill requires the prior approval of senior management of the company. Employees of certain business units, including those involved in the U.S. securities industry and those engaged in transactions with state and local governments, may be subject to additional restrictions on political contributions.
3.6 Lobbying
BayHill encourages every employee to take an active interest in government processes. Any participation in a political process is to be undertaken as an individualnot as a representative of BayHill. As a general matter, you should not engage in lobbying activities on behalf of BayHill.
Lobbying activity generally includes attempts to influence the passage or defeat of legislation, and it may trigger registration and reporting requirements. The U.S. government and many states extend the definition of lobbying activity to cover efforts to influence rulemaking by executive branch agencies or other official actions of agencies, including the decision to enter into a contract or other financial arrangement.
4. Privacy/Confidentiality
4.1 Proprietary and Confidential Information
While working for BayHill and continuing after you cease your employment or association with BayHill, you must protect the confidentiality of nonpublic information you obtain or create in connection with your activities for BayHill. You must not disclose proprietary or confidential information about BayHill or its employees, or confidential information about a client, supplier or distributor, to anyone (including other BayHill personnel) who is not authorized to receive it or has no need to know the information. The only exceptions are when such disclosure is authorized by the client, supplier or distributor, or by applicable law (e.g., to supervisory regulators), appropriate legal process (e.g., subpoena) or appropriate BayHill authorities.
Examples of proprietary and confidential information include any system, information or process that gives BayHill an opportunity to obtain an advantage over our competitors; nonpublic information about BayHills operations, results, strategies and projections; nonpublic information about BayHills business plans, business processes and client relationships; nonpublic employee information; nonpublic information received in the course of your employment about clients, suppliers and distributors; and nonpublic information about BayHills technology, systems and proprietary products.
You must take precautionary measures to prevent unauthorized disclosure of proprietary and confidential information. Accordingly, you should also take steps to ensure that business-related paperwork and documents are produced, copied, faxed, filed, stored and discarded by means designed to minimize the risk that unauthorized persons might obtain access to proprietary or confidential information. You should also ensure that access to work areas and computers is properly controlled. You should not discuss sensitive matters or confidential information in public places such as elevators, hallways, restaurants, restrooms and public transportation; and except under the most urgent circumstances, you should not discuss proprietary or confidential information on cellular phones. Great care also should be exercised when discussing such information on speakerphones.
4.2 Privacy of Client Information and Data Protection
Our most important asset is our clients trust. Keeping client information secure and using it appropriately is therefore a top priority for all of us at BayHill. You must safeguard any confidential information our clients share with us. You must also ensure that we use client information only for the reasons for which the information was gathered, unless further use is allowed by law. BayHill and various of its subsidiaries have in place privacy principles that detail their specific commitments to clients, and processes that define, document, monitor and manage the security of information. In addition, many countries have data protection and privacy laws that affect the collection, use and transfer of personal client information.
4.3 Privacy of Employee Information
BayHill recognizes and protects the privacy and confidentiality of employee medical and personnel records. Such records must not be shared or discussed outside BayHill, except as authorized by the employee or as required by law, rule, regulation or a subpoena or order issued by a court of competent jurisdiction or requested by a judicial, administrative or legislative body. Requests for such records from anyone outside BayHill under any other circumstances must be approved by counsel.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Adopted by the Board May 12, 2008
5. Investments and Outside Activities
5.1 Insider Trading
BayHill policy and the laws of many countries prohibit trading in the securities (including equity securities, convertible securities, options, bonds and any stock index containing the security) of any company while in possession of material, nonpublic information (also known as inside information) regarding the company. This prohibition applies to BayHill securities as well as to the securities of other companies. It applies also to accounts in which you have a financial or beneficial interest, or the power to affect or ability to influence trading or investment decisions, either directly or indirectly. Such accounts typically include accounts of spouses, domestic partners, children and other members of your household, and accounts over which you have investment discretion.
If you believe you have come into possession of inside information, you may not execute any trade in the securities of the subject company without first consulting with counsel. The definition of material, nonpublic information is broad. Information is material (and hence, potentially subject to the prohibition on insider trading) if there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider the information important in determining whether to trade in a security, or if the information, if made public, likely would affect the market price of a companys securities. Information may be material even if it relates to future, speculative or contingent events, and even if it is significant only when considered in combination with publicly available information. Information is considered to be nonpublic unless it has been publicly disclosed, and adequate time has passed for the securities markets to digest the information. Examples of adequate disclosure include public filings with securities regulatory authorities and the issuance of press releases, and may also include meetings with members of the press and public.
It is also illegal to tip or pass on inside information to any other person if you know or reasonably suspect that the person receiving such information from you will misuse such information by trading in securities or passing such information on further, even if you do not receive any monetary benefit from the tippee.
5.2 Personal Investments in BayHill Securities
BayHill supports employee stock ownership. Investments in BayHill securities (or the securities of its publicly traded subsidiaries) for personal accounts should be made with a long-term orientation and as part of a broader investment strategy. In order to comply with applicable law and avoid the appearance of impropriety, certain general restrictions apply to all transactions in BayHill securities.
You are prohibited from trading in BayHill securities for your personal accounts if you possess material nonpublic information about BayHill. BayHill directors and our most senior officers are subject to reporting and other legal restrictions regarding their personal trading of BayHill securities.
5.3 Conflicts of Interest
You must be sensitive to any activities, interests or relationships that might interfere with, or even appear to interfere with, your ability to act in the best interests of BayHill and its clients. The following are only some of the areas in which real or perceived conflicts of interest may arise. Because it is impossible to describe every potential conflict, BayHill necessarily relies on your commitment to exercise sound judgment, to seek advice when appropriate and to adhere to the highest ethical standards in the conduct of your professional and personal affairs.
Use of BayHill Name, Facilities or Relationships
You should not use BayHills name (including on corporate letterhead or personal websites), facilities or relationships for personal benefit or for outside work. Use of BayHills name, facilities or relationships for charitable or pro bono purposes can be made only with prior approval from your supervisor or other senior member of management.
6
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Adopted by the Board May 12, 2008
Corporate Opportunities
You owe a duty to BayHill to advance its legitimate interests when the opportunity to do so arises. You may not take for yourself a corporate opportunity that is discovered in the course of your BayHill employment or representation or through the use of corporate property, information or position, nor may you compete against BayHill.
Related Party Business Dealings
You must notify your supervisor of any business relationship or proposed business transaction BayHill may have with any company in which you or a related party has a direct or indirect interest or from which you or a related party may derive a benefit, or where a related party member is employed, if such a relationship or transaction might give rise to the appearance of a conflict of interest (for example, if you or a family member owns or controls property of significant value that BayHill is either purchasing or leasing). This requirement generally does not apply if the interest exists solely as a result of your ownership of less than 1% of the outstanding publicly traded equity securities of such company.
6. Antitrust Compliance
BayHill may be subject to complex laws known antitrust laws designed to preserve competition among enterprises and to protect consumers from unfair business arrangements and practices. You are expected to comply with these laws at all times.
Many situations create the potential for unlawful anticompetitive conduct and should be avoided. These include:
proposals from competitors to share price or other competitive marketing information or to allocate markets or clients;
attempts by clients or potential clients to preclude BayHill from doing business with, or contracting with, another client; or
discussions at industry trade association meetings on competitively sensitive topics, such as prices, pricing policies, costs and marketing strategies.
If a competitor or a client tries to discuss subjects with you that raise concerns about anticompetitive conduct, you should refuse to do so and ask the person to stop immediately. If necessary, you should leave or otherwise terminate the conversation and report the matter to supervisor.
We at BayHill aspire to the highest standards of moral and ethical conductworking to earn client trust, day in and day out. We affirm our commitment to this Code of Conduct and to deliver value to our clients, our people, our shareholders and our communities.
Acknowledgement

I understand that my agreement to comply with the Code neither constitutes nor should be construed to constitute either a contract of employment for a definite term or a guarantee of continued employment.
