SUMMARY INFORMATION AND RISK FACTORS .

Prospectus Summary. The following summary is only a shortened version of the more detailed information, exhibits and financial statements appearing elsewhere in this prospectus. Prospective investors are urged to read this prospectus in its entirety.

SUMMARY

This is a public offering of up to 2,423,333 shares of common stock of Celtic Cross Ltd. These shares are being offered by selling shareholders listed in this prospectus. The shares were acquired by the selling shareholders directly from the Company in private offerings that were relied upon as being exempt from registration under the US Securities laws.

There is no established market for the Company's securities. Further, though the Company will endeavour to establish a public market for its securities, no assurance can be given that a trading market will develop or be maintained in the securities of the Company in the future.

The Company is in the business of providing travel bookings and Timeshare rentals and sales. Celtic Cross Ltd was formed in February 25, 2004 as a "For Profit" corporation for the purpose of acquiring the Timeshare entities discussed herein, and additional like entities going forward including a full sales and service Internet Celtic Cross Travel website.

Our principal executive offices are located at 1109 7 th Court, Fox Island WA 98333 and our phone number is 253-549-4336.

The Offering

Common Stock Offered for Resale                                             2,423,333 shares

Securities to be outstanding after this offering:                              3,390,000 shares

Use of Proceeds

We will not receive proceeds from the resale of the Common Stock described in this Prospectus.

SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The following is a summary of our financial information and is qualified in its entirety by our audited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

 

Revenues

The Company has no operating sales contracts to date and therefore has no revenue.

3


Operating Expenses

Operating expenses totaling $32,576 consisted of organizational costs, product development, consulting, accounting, legal, transfer agent, depreciation, and interest.

Other general and administrative expenses totaled $8,379for the ten months ended December 31, 2004.

Income Taxes

The Company does not anticipate having to pay income taxes in 2004, due to our absence of net profits.

Capital and Liquidity

As of December 31, 2004 we had total current assets of approximately $29,605 and total current liabilities of approximately $2,785 resulting in working capital of approximately $26,820.

During the ten months ended December 31, 2004 the Company received $75,400 in cash from the sale of its common stock.

We had cash on hand of as of December 31, 2004 of $29,605. We have sufficient cash to meet our short-term needs but we will require additional cash, either from financing transactions or operating activities, to meet our long-term goals. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing, either in the form of debt or equity, or that, if such financing is obtained, it will be available to us on reasonable terms. If we are able to obtain additional financing or structure strategic relationships in order to fund existing or future projects, existing shareholders will likely experience further dilution of their percentage ownership of the Company.

RISK FACTORS

Any investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following information about those risks, together with the other information contained in this prospectus and any other filings we make with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission before you decide whether to buy our shares. Should any one or more of these risks actually materialize the results of our operations and our financial condition would likely suffer. In that event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

The Penny Stock Reform Act (Securities Exchange Act Sect. 3(a)(51A)) defines a penny stock as an equity security that is not registered on a national stock exchange or authorized for quotation on NASDAQ, and that sells for under $5.00 per share. Celtic Cross Ltd. will be considered a penny stock under said Act. Since Celtic Cross Ltd. stock will be considered a penny stock, a broker-dealer is required to provide a risk disclosure statement to a customer prior to recommending the sale of its stock. This could severely limit the ability to create a market for shares of Celtic Cross Ltd.'s stock.

Risk Factors Related to CELTIC CROSS LTD.

An investment in shares of our common stock is very risky. You should carefully consider the following factors as well as the other information contained and incorporated by reference in this

4


prospectus before deciding to invest.

Risks Relating to This Offering

Limited Operating History; Lack Of Operating Revenue; Early Stage Of Exploration

Celtic Cross Ltd., a Nevada corporation ("Company"), was organized on February 25, 2004. The business office of the Company is located at 1109 7 th Court, Fox Island, WA 98333. The Company operates on the calendar fiscal year. Currently, the Company has no employees and is being operated by the directors. The Company is in its initial stages of development with no revenues or income and is subject to all the risks inherent in the creation of a new business. Since the Company's principal activities to date have been limited to organizational activities, prospect development, and acquisition of leasehold interests, it has no record of any revenue-producing operations. Consequently, there is no operating history upon which to base an assumption that the Company will be able to achieve its business plans.

We Are Dependent Upon Financing Activities to Fund Our Operations

The funds available to the Company from the first four private offerings (see Part II Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities) will be adequate for it to develop the concept in the areas in which it intends to operate. The Company has approximately $26,820working capital. The Company's continued operations therefore will depend upon its ability to raise additional funds through bank borrowings, equity or debt financing, or asset sales. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain additional funding when needed, or that such funding, if available, can be obtained on terms acceptable to the Company. If the Company cannot obtain needed funds, it may be forced to curtail or cease its activities. If additional shares were issued to obtain financing, current shareholders may suffer a dilutive effect on their percentage of stock ownership in the Company. If we are unable to raise capital from the sale of securities, loans, or industry partnerships in the future, we will have to scale back our operations and may, at some point, become insolvent.

We are Dependent upon Certain Officers, Key Employees, and Consultants

The Company is substantially dependent upon the efforts of a few key officers, directors, and consultants to the Company. Should any of these individuals cease to be affiliated with the Company for any reason before qualified replacements could be found, there could be material adverse effects on the Company's business and prospects. The Company's management team is small and has limited experience in establishing and managing large-scale operations. There can be no assurance, that if the Company is able to generate increased revenues, that the management will be able to manage such growth. We are dependent on the services of Howard Bouch, President, Secretary and Chief Financial Officer of Celtic Cross Ltd. We are also dependent on certain key employees in connection with our business activities. The loss of one or more of these individuals could materially and adversely impact our operations. We have not entered into employment agreements with any of these individuals, and do not maintain key-man life insurance on any Celtic Cross Ltd. officers or employees.

5


We Are Thinly Staffed

The day-to-day activities are being executed by the directors of the Company. Unless and until additional employees are hired, our attempt to manage our projects and obligations with such a limited staff could have serious adverse consequences, including without limitation, a possible failure to meet a material, contractual, or SEC deadline, or a possible failure to consummate investment or acquisition opportunities.

The Travel and Timeshare Industry Is Highly Competitive, and We Are At a Competitive Disadvantage

The travel and timeshare industry is highly competitive. Most of our current and potential competitors have far greater financial resources and a greater number of experienced and trained managerial and technical personnel than we do. We can provide no assurance that we will be able to compete with, or enter into cooperative relationships with, any such firms.

Other Risks Relating to the Common Stock

Most of our outstanding shares will be free trading and, if sold in large quantities, may adversely affect the market price for our common stock.

2,423,333 of the 3,390,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2004, will be free-trading or are eligible for resale under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Although the resale of certain of these shares may be subject to the volume limitations and other restrictions under Rule 144, the possible resale of the remaining shares may have an adverse effect on the market price for our common stock.

Possible Anti-Takeover Effects of Authorized but Unissued Stock.

The Company's authorized but unissued capital stock consists of 71,610,000 shares of common stock. There are no shares of preferred stock issued or authorized. One effect of the existence of authorized but unissued capital stock may be to enable the Board of Directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest, or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of the Company's management. If, in the due exercise of its fiduciary obligations, for example, the Board of Directors were to determine that a takeover proposal was not in the Company's best interests, such shares could be issued by the Board of Directors without stockholder approval in one or more private placements or other transactions that might prevent, or render more difficult or costly, completion of the takeover transaction by diluting the voting or other rights of the proposed acquiror or insurgent stockholder or stockholder group, by creating a substantial voting block in institutional or other hands that might undertake to support the position of the incumbent Board of Directors, by effecting an acquisition that might complicate or preclude the takeover, or otherwise.

We Have No Warrants, Options or Debentures Outstanding

As of December 31, 2004 there are no outstanding warrants and options to purchase common stock of the Company. Should the Company choose to offer incentive options to its key employees, the

6


existence of these options may hinder our future equity offerings, and the exercise of these options would further dilute the interests of all of our shareholders. Future resale of the shares of common stock issuable on the exercise of warrants and options may have an adverse effect on the prevailing market price of our common stock. Furthermore, the holders of warrants and options may exercise them at a time when we would otherwise be able to obtain additional equity capital on terms more favorable to us.

We Have The Right To, and Expect to, Issue Additional Shares of Common Stock Without Shareholder Approval.

Celtic Cross Ltd. has authorized capital of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and no shares of preferred stock. As of December 31, 2004, there were 3,390,000 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. Our board of directors has authority, without action or vote of our shareholders, to issue all or part of the authorized but un-issued shares. Any issuance of shares described in this paragraph will dilute the percentage ownership of our shareholders and may dilute the book value of the common stock.

We Have Not Paid Any Dividends and Do Not Expect To Pay Dividends In the Near Future

We have not paid, and do not plan to pay, dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future, even if we become profitable. Earnings, if any, are expected to be used to advance our activities and for general corporate purposes, rather than to make distributions to shareholders.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

You should carefully consider the risk factors set forth above, as well as the other information contained in this prospectus. This prospectus contains forward-looking statements regarding events, conditions, and financial trends that may affect our plan of operation, business strategy, operating results, and financial position. You are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those included within the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. Cautionary statements in the "risk factors" section and elsewhere in this prospectus identify important risks and uncertainties affecting our future, which could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements made in this prospectus.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will realize no proceeds from the sale by selling shareholders of the shares covered by this registration statement. Since no new shares are being issued as a result of this offering, there is no dilution to the current shareholders.

DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE

Celtic Cross Ltd. will not determine the offering price of the common stock. The offering price will be determined by market factors and the independent decisions of the selling shareholders. See Plan of Distribution below.

7


DILUTION

Since no new shares are being issued as a result of this offering, there is no dilution to the current shareholders.

SELLING SHAREHOLDERS

The Selling Shareholders are offering hereby a total of up to 2,423,333 shares of our Common Stock. The following table sets forth certain information with respect to the Selling Shareholders as of December 31, 2004.

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have not paid dividends on our common stock, and we do not have retained earnings from which to pay dividends. Even if we were able to generate the necessary earnings, it is not anticipated that dividends will be paid in the foreseeable future.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Shareholders are free to offer and sell their common shares at such times, in such manner and at such prices as they may determine. The types of transactions in which the common shares are sold may include transactions in the over-the-counter market (including block transactions), negotiated transactions, the settlement of short sales of common shares, or a combination of such methods of sale. The sales will be at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices. Such transactions may or may not involve brokers or dealers. The Selling Shareholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of its securities. The Selling Shareholders do not have an underwriter

10


or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the common shares.

The Selling Shareholders may effect such transactions by selling common stock directly to purchasers or to or through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals. Such broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions, or commission from the Selling Shareholders. They may also receive compensation from the purchasers of common shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions).

Each Selling Shareholder is, and any broker-dealer that acts in connection with the sale of common shares may be deemed to be, an "underwriter" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act. Any commissions received by such broker-dealers and any profit on the resale of the common shares sold by them while acting as principals might be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions.

Because the Selling Shareholders are "underwriters" within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act, they will be subject to prospectus delivery requirements.

We have informed the Selling Shareholders that the anti-manipulation rules of the SEC, including Regulation M promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act, may apply to their sales in the market and have provided each Selling Shareholder with a copy of such rules and regulations.

The Selling Shareholders also may resell all or a portion of the common shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities and Exchange Act, provided it meets the criteria and conforms to the requirements of such Rule.

The Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of 75,000,000 shares of common stock, with a par value of $0.001. The holders of the Shares: (a) have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available therefore, when, as, and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company; (b) are entitled to share ratably in all of the assets of the Company available for distribution upon winding up of the affairs of the Company; (c) do not have preemptive subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund applicable thereto; and (d) are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which shareholders may vote at all meetings of shareholders. These securities do not have any of the following rights: (a) cumulative or special voting rights; (b) preemptive rights to purchase in new issues of Shares; (c) preference as to dividends or interest; (d) preference upon liquidation; or (e) any other special rights or preferences. In addition, the Shares are not convertible into any other security. There are no restrictions on dividends under any loan, other financing arrangements or otherwise.

As of the date of this Form S-2, the Company had 3,390,000 of common stock outstanding.

Non-Cumulative Voting.

The holders of Shares of Common Stock of the Company do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding Shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining Shares will not be able to elect any of the Company's directors.

All outstanding shares of Common Stock offered hereby will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

As a consequence of their ownership of Common Stock, the current stockholders of the Company will continue to control a majority of the voting power of the Company and, accordingly, will be able to elect all of the Company's directors.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

We have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") is against public policy as expressed in the Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities is asserted by one of our directors, officers, or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our legal counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy to court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court's decision.

ORGANIZATION WITHIN LAST FIVE YEARS

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General

The Company is in the business of providing travel bookings and timeshare rentals and sales. Celtic Cross Ltd was formed in February 25, 2004 as a "For Profit" corporation for the purpose of acquiring the Timeshare entities discussed herein, and additional like entities going forward including a full sales and service Internet Celtic Cross Travel website. Our website is currently under construction and is estimated to be completed in the second quarter of 2005.

Management believes that a substantial international market already exists for independent full service internet travel websites and the non-owned casual usage of fully developed timeshare properties. The timeshare facilities are located in every major resort and holiday venue and lend themselves to single visitation temporary rental programs as planned by Celtic Cross Ltd. Shared vacation ownership and timeshare is a relatively new real estate based business opportunity.

Marketing

Our target market wants to spend time with family and less time planning trips.  Unlike standard hotel rooms, timeshare rental, often with two or three bedrooms, can easily accommodate larger families with children and friends or couples traveling together in a well-appointed accommodation with social activities, entertainment, pools, tennis courts and other free amenities.

While most vacation ownership condominiums have two bedrooms and two baths, unit sizes range from studios to three or more bedrooms. Most units include a fully equipped kitchen with dining area, washer and dryer, stereo, televisions, VCRs and more. Timeshare resort amenities rival those of other top-rated resort properties and may include planned children's activities, swimming pools, tennis, spa, golf and bicycles as well as spa and exercise facilities. Others feature boating, skiing, restaurants and equestrian facilities on-site or nearby.

With vacation rentals, consumers have the opportunity to purchase time at quality resorts offering an array of amenities in popular international destinations. In fact, there are now more than 5,400 resorts in some 100 countries around the world and annual vacation ownership sales are estimated to be in excess of $9.4 billion. Today, 3 million U.S. households own 4.9 million weeks at nearly 1,600 resorts.

15


Outlook

According to the American Resort Development Association, the concept was originated in the French Alps in the 1960s. Now, 44 years later, it is firmly positioned as one of the most popular vacation options enjoyed by today's leisure travelers. Millions of owners have found timeshare's spacious floor plans and home-like amenities very attractive when compared with traditional hospitality products. Truly a home away from home, vacation ownership provides the space and flexibility needed to easily accommodate families and larger traveling parties in single, full service accommodations with multi bedroom or attached units. Celtic Cross Ltd believes an even larger market exists for one time single usage of these facilities by individuals and families who do not wish to own, but would rather rent on an "as needed" basis from a company such as Celtic Cross Ltd..

Competition

The Company will compete against established companies with significantly greater financial, marketing, research and development, personnel, and other resources than the Company. Such competition could have a material adverse effect on the Company's profitability.

Government Regulation

There are no government regulations regulating the time share rental and sales industry at this time.

Employees

The Company does not have any full time employees at this time. All management activities are undertaken by the company's Officers and Directors.

Insurance

The Company does not have Insurance coverage at this time.

Intellectual Property

The Company does not have substantial intellectual property.

Reports to Security Holders

We will be filing this Form SB2 with the Commission and will file reports , including quarterly and annual reports, with the Commission pursuant to Section 12(b) or (g) of the Exchange Act. These reports and any other materials filed with the SEC may be read and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, NW, Washington, D.C. 20549.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

THE FOLLOWING PLAN OF OPERATION SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE DECEMBER 31, 2004 FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE RELATED NOTES ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. THIS DISCUSSION CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS BASED UPON CURRENT EXPECTATIONS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES, SUCH AS OUR PLANS, OBJECTIVES, EXPECTATIONS AND INTENTIONS. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS AND THE TIMING OF CERTAIN EVENTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF CERTAIN FACTORS, INCLUDING THOSE SET FORTH UNDER "RISK FACTORS," "BUSINESS" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. SEE "RISK FACTORS."

The operational plan Celtic Cross Ltd. is to acquire deeded real-estate property rights in the fully developed secondary market at deep discounts to the retail prices being solicited by the timeshare developers today. Celtic will then offer these rights on a rental basis at a profit to individuals seeking vacation opportunities not currently available to them through direct marketing and the Internet.

  1. To increase Celtic Cross Ltd. brand awareness throughout the United States, Europe, the Caribbean, and all international markets the Internet reaches.

  2. To increase recognition and world wide market awareness using the following means:

  3. a. Target market advertising

    b. Internet advertising

    c. Referral incentive programs

    d. Affiliating with regional rental organizations and travel agents

  4. To develop a Corporate Convention rental program.

  5. To Initiate cross-selling programs of various Timeshare brands

  6. To initiate a "GLOBAL" brand identity for Celtic Cross Ltd.

  7. To effectively increase net operating margins through add-on acquisitions and marketing agreements.

Celtic Cross Ltd. and its management's mission is to become a central focus point in the international Timeshare rental marketplace and Internet travel bookings through the dedication of our staff, integrity, superior products and competitive pricing. Celtic Cross' goal is to provide the customer with products of high quality accommodations at a fair price.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Other than as set forth in this Item 7, there are no relationships, transactions, or proposed transactions to which the registrant was or is to be a party, in which any of the named persons set forth in Item 404 of Regulation SB had or is to have a direct or indirect material interest.

On April 22, 2004 the company entered into a six-month Consulting Agreement with Wannigan Capital Corp., a company, whose President and Director is Kevin M. Murphy. Mr. Murphy was a Director of Celtic Cross, Ltd. from inception (February 25, 2004) until December 30, 2004. Wannigan Capital Corp received $15,000 cash payment as remuneration. .

MARKET FOR COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

No Public Market for Common Stock

There is presently no public market for the common stock. Celtic Cross Ltd. anticipates applying for trading of the common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, Celtic Cross Ltd. can provide no assurance that the shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.

Holders of Common Stock

Non-Cumulative Voting.

The holders of Shares of Common Stock of the Company do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of such outstanding Shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose. In such event, the holders of the remaining Shares will not be able to elect any of the Company's directors.

Stock Option Grants

There are no Stock Options granted at this time.

Registration Rights

The Company has granted certain demand and piggyback registration rights to the Selling Shareholders, which rights have been satisfied in connection with the filing of the registration statement covering this Prospectus.

Dividends

The Company does not currently intend to pay cash dividends. The Company's proposed dividend policy is to make distributions of its revenues to its stockholders when the Company's Board of Directors deems such distributions appropriate. Because the Company does not intend to make cash distributions, potential shareholders would need to sell their shares to realize a return on their

18


investment. There can be no assurances of the projected values of the shares, nor can there be any guarantees of the success of the Company.

A distribution of revenues will be made only when, in the judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, it is in the best interest of the Company's stockholders to do so. The Board of Directors will review, among other things, the investment quality and marketability of the securities considered for distribution; the impact of a distribution of the investee's securities on its customers, joint venture associates, management contracts, other investors, financial institutions, and the company's internal management, plus the tax consequences and the market effects of an initial or broader distribution of such securities.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

(a) No officer or director of the Company is receiving any remuneration at this time.

(b) There are no annuity, pension or retirement benefits proposed to be paid to officers, directors, or employees of the corporation in the event of retirement at normal retirement date pursuant to any presently existing plan provided or contributed to by the corporation or any of its subsidiaries.

(c) No remuneration is proposed to be paid in the future directly or indirectly by the corporation to any officer or director under any plan which is presently existing.

Director Compensation

The Directors of the Company do not receive compensation at his time.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

 

 

To the Board of Directors

Celtic Cross, Ltd.

We have audited the balance sheet of Celtic Cross, Ltd. (a development stage company) (the Company) as of December 31, 2004, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period from February 25, 2004 (date of inception) through December 31, 2004. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the Standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Celtic Cross, Ltd. as of December 31, 2004, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from February 25, 2004 (date of inception) through December 31, 2004, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 5 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered net losses since inception and is still considered a development stage company, as it has not yet obtained revenues from its planned principle operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to meet its obligations and to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 5. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2004

 

1. Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

This summary of significant accounting policies of Celtic Cross, Ltd. (a development stage company) (the Company) is presented to assist in understanding the Company's financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements. The Company has not realized revenues from its planned principal business purpose and, accordingly, is considered to be in its development stage.

Business Description

Celtic Cross, Ltd. (the Company) is a Nevada corporation organized on February 25, 2004 to acquire timeshares and similar properties and facilitate rentals and sales of the properties via its full-service travel website. The Company has elected a fiscal year end of December 31st.

Income Taxes

The Company recognizes the tax effects of transactions in the year in which such transactions enter into the determination of net income, regardless of when reported for tax purposes. Deferred taxes are provided in the financial statements under Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 109 to give effect to the resulting temporary differences which may arise from differences in the bases of fixed assets, depreciation methods, allowances, and start-up costs based on the income taxes expected to be payable in future years. Minimal development stage deferred tax assets of approximately $16,000 arising as a result of net operating loss carrforwards have been offset completely by a valuation allowance due to the uncertainty of their utilization in future periods. Operating loss carryforwards generated during the period from February 25, 2004 (date of inception) through December 31, 2004 of approximately $41,000 will begin to expire in 2024.

Estimates

Preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates. Depreciation is an example of estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements at December 31, 2004. Because of the use of estimates inherent in the financial reporting process, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the accelerated double-declining method based on estimated useful lives of 3 years.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

For the purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $29,605 in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2004.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144, " Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles held and used by an entity be periodically reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 has not materially affected the Company's reported earnings, financial condition or cash flows.

Earnings Per Share

The computation of net income (loss) per share of common stock is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period presented.

2.  Related Party Transactions

On April 22, 2004, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with an entity owned by its president/director. The entity was engaged to perform consulting services for the Company for a term of six months commencing April 22, 2004, in exchange for $15,000. On December 30, 2004, the president/director resigned from his position with the Company.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2004

 

5.  Going Concern Considerations

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has incurred losses since its inception and has not yet been successful in establishing profitable operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. Unanticipated costs and expenses or the inability to generate revenues could require additional financing, which would be sought through bank borrowings, equity or debt financing, or asset sales. To the extent financing is not available, the Company may not be able to, or may be delayed in, developing its services and meeting its obligations. The Company will continue to evaluate its projected expenditures relative to its available cash and to evaluate additional means of financing in order to satisfy its working capital and other cash requirements. The accompanying financial statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS

During the Company's first fiscal year and up to the present time, the principal independent accountant for the Company has neither resigned (or declined to stand for reelection) nor been dismissed. The independent accountant for the Company is Child, Sullivan & Company, 1284 W. Flint Meadow Drive, Suite D, Kaysville, UT 84037. This firm was engaged on or about March 1, 2004.

PART II

INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS

INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS

No director of the Company will have personal liability to the Company or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director involving any act or omission of any such director since provisions have been made in the Articles of Incorporation limiting such liability. The foregoing provisions shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or, which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under applicable Sections of the Nevada Revised Statutes, (iv) the payment of dividends in violation of Section 78.300 of the Nevada Revised Statutes or, (v) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.

The By-laws provide for indemnification of the directors, officers, and employees of the Company in most cases for any liability suffered by them or arising out of their activities as directors, officers, and employees of the Company if they were not engaged in willful misfeasance or malfeasance in the performance of his or her duties; provided that in the event of a settlement the indemnification will apply only when the Board of Directors approves such settlement and reimbursement as being for the best interests of the Corporation. The Bylaws, therefore, limit the liability of directors to the maximum extent permitted by Nevada law (Section 78.751).

The officers and directors of the Company are accountable to the Company as fiduciaries, which means they are required to exercise good faith and fairness in all dealings affecting the Company. In the event that a shareholder believes the officers and/or directors have violated their fiduciary duties to the Company, the shareholder may, subject to applicable rules of civil procedure, be able to bring a class action or derivative suit to enforce the shareholder's rights, including rights under certain federal and state securities laws and regulations to recover damages from and require an accounting by management. Shareholders who have suffered losses in connection with the purchase or sale of their interest in the Company in connection with such sale or purchase, including the misapplication by any such officer or director of the proceeds from the sale of these securities, may be able to recover such losses from the Company.

RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

On March 1, 2004, the Company undertook a private offering of 900,000 shares of its common stock, with an offering price of $0.001 per share. The proceeds from this offering were to be used to cover further start-up and organizational costs of the Corporation. This offering was undertaken directly by the Corporation. The Corporation prepared and distributed a private offering memorandum in connection with this offering to all prospective investors, made all filings, and paid all fees, as required under federal and state securities laws and regulations to properly qualify this offering under said laws and regulations, including but not limited to Regulation D promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. All 900,000 shares were subscribed, resulting in proceeds to the Company of $900.

On March 7, 2004 the Company commenced an offering of 1,000,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at an offering price of $0.01 per Share pursuant to the terms of a confidential private offering memorandum dated March 7, 2004 for the purpose of providing additional working and development capital for the Company. The minimum investment required was $250.00. No discounts or commissions were paid in connection with this offering. On March 8, 2004, this offering was closed, resulting in the sale of 950,000 Shares and proceeds to the Company, before costs of the offering, of $9,500.

On March 9, 2004, the Company commenced an offering of 1,000,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at an offering price of $0.03 per Share pursuant to the terms of a confidential private offering memorandum dated March 9, 2004, for the purpose of providing additional working and development capital for the Company. The minimum investment required was $250.00. No discounts or commissions were paid in connection with this offering. On March 9, 2004, this offering was closed, resulting in the sale of 1,000,000 Shares and proceeds to the Company, before costs of the offering, of $30,000.

32


On March 10, 2004, the Company commenced an offering of 500,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at an offering price of $0.05 per Share pursuant to the terms of a confidential private offering memorandum dated March 10, 2004, for the purpose of providing additional working and development capital for the Company. The minimum investment required was $250.00. No discounts or commissions were paid in connection with this offering. On March 17, 2004, this offering was closed, resulting in the sale of 380,000 Shares and proceeds to the Company, before costs of the offering, of $19,000.

On March 19, 2004, the Company commenced an offering of 200,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at an offering price of $0.10 per Share pursuant to the terms of a confidential private offering memorandum dated March 19, 2004, for the purpose of providing additional working and development capital for the Company. The minimum investment required was $250.00. No discounts or commissions were paid in connection with this offering. On March 29, 2004, this offering was closed, resulting in the sale of 160,000 Shares and proceeds to the Company, before costs of the offering, of $16,000.

All of these offerings were undertaken pursuant to the limited offering exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 as provided in Rule 504 under Regulation D as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. These offerings met the requirements of Rule 504 in that: (a) the total of funds raised in the five offerings does not exceed $1,000,000; and (b) the offer and sale of the Shares was not accomplished by means of any general advertising or general solicitation.

The class of persons to whom these offering were made were "sophisticated investors." As a result, offers were made only to persons that the Company believed, and had reasonable grounds to believe, either (a) have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the proposed investment, or (b) can bear the economic risks of the proposed investment (that is, at the time of investment, could afford a complete loss). Additionally, sales were made only to persons whom the Company believed, and had reasonable ground to believe immediately prior to such sale and upon making reasonable inquiry, (a) are capable of bearing the economic risk of the investment, and (b) either personally possess the requisite knowledge and experience, or, together with their offeree representative, have such knowledge and experience.

UNDERTAKINGS

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement.

(i) To include any Prospectus required by Section l0 (a) (3) of the Securities Act of l933;

(ii) To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement, including (but not limited to) any addition or deletion of a managing underwriter.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of l933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered, which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of l933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

(5) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide

35


offering of those securities.
