Friendly
Auto Dealers’ Auditor has substantial doubts as to Friendly Auto Dealers’
ability to continue as a going concern
|
7
|
If
we complete a financing through the sale of additional shares of
our
common stock in the future, then shareholders will experience
dilution.
|
7
|
Because
we lack an operating history, we face a high risk of business failure,
which may result in the loss of your investment.
|
7
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers may be unable to complete its website, which is necessary
to
promote and market its products.
|
8
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers will rely upon consultants for web-development, and
the
consultant may not complete the work within the set framework and
on
time.
|
8
|
Because
the Internet will be the Company’s main venue to conduct business, any
significant changes or interruptions to the Internet’s existing
infrastructure will affect our ability to sell products to prospective
customers.
|
8
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers’ success is dependent on current management, who may be
unable to devote sufficient time to the development of Friendly Auto
Dealers’ business plan, which could cause the business to
fail.
|
8
|
Because
one existing stockholder owns a majority of the outstanding common
stock,
future corporate decisions will be controlled by this person, whose
interests may differ from the interests of other stockholders, and
may be
adverse to those other shareholders' interests.
|
9
|
There
is currently no market for Friendly Auto Dealers’ common stock, but if a
market for our common stock does develop, our stock price may be
volatile.
|
9
|
Our
stock is a Penny Stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted
by the SEC’s Penny Stock regulations and the NASD’s Sales Practices
requirements, which may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our
stock.
|
9
|
While
Friendly Auto Dealers expects to apply for listing on the OTC Bulletin
Board (OTCBB), we may not be approved, and even if approved, we may
not be
approved for trading on the OTCBB; therefore shareholders may not
have a
market to sell their shares, either in the near term or in the long
term,
or both.
|
10
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers plans to purchase products Overseas, and is therefore
subject
to risks related to currency fluctuations and regulation that may
adversely affect the Company.
|
11
|
The
Company’s inability to source viable promotional products or apparel may
result in a loss of your investment.
|
11
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers has limited financial resources at present, and proceeds
from
the offering may not be used to fully develop its
business.
|
11
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers has no customers to date, and may not develop sufficient
customers to stay in business.
|
11
|
Because
we do not have an Escrow or Trust Account for Investor’s Subscriptions, if
we file for Bankruptcy Protection or are forced into Bankruptcy
Protection, Investors will lose their entire
investment.

Summary: The following summary is supported by reference to the more
detailed information and the financial statements, including the notes thereto,
appearing elsewhere in this Prospectus. Each prospective investor is urged

Company
History
Friendly
Auto Dealers, Inc. ("Friendly Auto Dealers" or “The Company”) is a development
stage enterprise that was incorporated on August 6, 2007, under the laws of
the
State of Nevada.
The
principal offices are located at 4132 South Rainbow Boulevard, Suite 514, Las
Vegas, Nevada. The telephone number is (925) 234-1783. The fax number is (702)
939-0655.
Since
becoming incorporated, Friendly Auto Dealers has not made any significant
purchases or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers,
acquisitions or consolidations. Friendly Auto Dealers has never declared
bankruptcy, it has never been in receivership, and it has never been involved
in
any legal action or proceedings. Our fiscal year end is December
31st.
Friendly
Auto Dealers, Inc. is looking to enter into the promotional branding industry
with the objective of adding value to a wide variety of products by endorsing
them with the corporate logos of the world’s automobile manufacture’s for use by
the company’s employees or as gifts or promotional items. The Company will
concentrate its efforts in the People’s Republic of China and its retail
automotive industry.
Friendly
Auto Dealers intends to establish itself as a specialized brand promotional
merchandising company. The Company will identify a range of casual apparel
and
consumer products that can be manufactured and resold for high mark-ups with
the
product endorsement of corporate logos.
Friendly
Auto Dealers intends to create brand name awareness amongst purchasing managers
or decision makers who are able to place its targeted products into its targeted
market. The targeted market is large to mid-size companies, who are using logo
bearing apparel, essential office products, and leisure products for their
employees as well as for gifts for customers.
Friendly
Auto Dealers will source its raw products (apparel and consumer products with
logos) in China. Once the Company has selected a range of apparel and
promotional products and negotiated pricing it will purchase a small inventory
in order to make promotional samples. The Company will hire
independent contractors within the Peoples Republic of China and the United
States for all graphic design. Embroidery, and screen printing work
necessary to place the prospective company logos on the products will be
performed in China. The Company will profile and market its product
line to the corporate marketplace through online merchandising and an e-catalog
on its website. The website will have online catalogs offering
apparel, office products and leisure products. The site will allow the consumer
to “upload” an electronic version of their company or corporate logo and order
products online through a fully functional e-commerce enabled
website.
As
of
August 31, 2007, the date of company's last audited financial statements,
Friendly Auto Dealers has raised $5,000 through the sale of common stock. There
is approximately $5,000 cash on hand and in the corporate bank account. Friendly
Auto Dealers currently has $300 liabilities which is a result of a loan from
Mr.
Davis, our Treasurer. In addition, Friendly Auto Dealers anticipates additional
costs associated with this offering will be approximately $4,304. As of the
date
of this prospectus, we have not yet generated or realized any revenues from
our
business operations. The following financial information summarizes the more
complete historical financial information as indicated on the audited financial
statements of Friendly Auto Dealers filed with this prospectus.
Management
Currently,
Friendly Auto Dealers has one Officer and one Director. The Officer and Director
has assumed responsibility for all planning, development and operational duties,
and will continue to do so throughout the beginning stages of Friendly Auto
Dealers. Other than the Officers/Director, there are no employees at the present
time and there are no plans to hire employees during the next twelve
months.

RISK
FACTORS
An
investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk and should be
considered a speculative investment. You should carefully consider the risks
described below and the other information in this prospectus. If any of the
following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition
could be seriously harmed. The trading price of our common stock could decline
due to any of these risks, and you could lose all or part of your
investment.
We
cannot assure any investor that we will successfully address these
risks.
Friendly
Auto Dealers’ Auditor has substantial doubts as to Friendly Auto Dealers’
ability to continue as a going concern.
Our
auditor's report on our August 31, 2007 financial statements expressed an
opinion that substantial doubt exists as to whether we can continue as an
ongoing business. Because our officers may be unable or unwilling to loan or
advance any capital to Friendly Auto Dealers, we believe that if we do not
raise
at least $25,000 from our offering, we may be required to suspend or cease
the
implementation of our business plans within 12 months. Since there is no minimum
and no refunds on sold shares, you may be investing in a company that will
not
have the funds necessary to continue to deploy its business strategies.
See
“August 31, 2007 Audited Financial Statements - Auditors
Report."
Because
the Company has been issued an opinion by its auditors that substantial doubt
exists as to whether the company can continue as a going concern it may be
more
difficult for the company to attract investors.
Friendly
Auto Dealers incurred an accumulative net loss of $7,550 for the period from
inception to August 31, 2007, and we have no revenue. Our future is dependent
upon our ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations
from
the sale of our products. We plan to seek additional funds through private
placements of our common stock. Our financial statements do not include any
adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded
assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be
necessary in the event we cannot continue in existence.
If
we complete a financing through the sale of additional shares of our common
stock in the future, then shareholders will experience
dilution.
The
most
likely source of future financing presently available to us is through the
sale
of shares of our common stock. Any sale of common stock will result in dilution
of equity ownership to existing shareholders. This means that if we sell shares
of our common stock, more shares will be outstanding and each existing
shareholder will own a smaller percentage of the shares then outstanding. To
raise additional capital we may have to issue additional shares, which may
substantially dilute the interests of existing shareholders. Alternatively,
we
may have to borrow large sums, and assume debt obligations that require us
to
make substantial interest and capital payments.
Because
we lack an operating history, we face a high risk of business failure, which
may
result in the loss of your investment.
Friendly
Auto Dealers is a development stage company and has not begun the initial stages
of product sourcing overseas. Thus, we have no way to evaluate the likelihood
that we will be able to operate the business successfully. We were incorporated
on August 6, 2007 and to date have been involved primarily in organizational
activities and market research. We have never been profitable and have never
generated any revenue. Based upon current plans, we expect to incur
operating losses in future periods. This will occur because there are expenses
associated with the sourcing of products, the purchasing of samples, and
marketing products to prospective business customers in order to enable the
company enter into the promotional products business.
We
cannot
guarantee we will be successful in generating revenue in the future or be
successful in raising funds through the sale of shares to pay for the company's
business plan and expenditures.
As
of the
date of this prospectus, we have not earned any revenue. Failure to generate
revenue will cause us to go out of business, which will result in the complete
loss of your investment.
Friendly
Auto Dealers may be unable to complete its website, which is necessary to
promote and market its products.
The
Friendly Auto Dealers’ does not currently have a website as such the Company is
not yet operational. Friendly Auto Dealers intends to use the website as a
promotional and marketing tool for its customers to use. Friendly Auto Dealers
has allocated from
$3,000
up
to $15,000 to develop the website in the next twelve months, if it is able
to
raise capital through this prospectus. Friendly Auto Dealers intends to use
the
website as an "on-line catalogue" for its customers to be able to view the
entire line of product and services. If this website is not available, Friendly
Auto Dealers would not be able to adequately market its products and service
its
potential customers.
Friendly
Auto Dealers will rely upon consultants for web-development, and the consultant
may not complete the work within the set framework and on
time.
Friendly
Auto Dealers is also heavily dependent on the web consultant to develop the
website in a timely matter within budget. If the consultant does not fulfill
his
duties, Friendly Auto Dealers may not be able to find another consultant with
specific expertise to develop it business plan.
Because
the Internet will be the Company’s main venue to conduct business, any
significant changes or interruptions to the Internet’s existing infrastructure
will affect our ability to sell products to prospective
customers.
If
the
Internet infrastructure becomes unreliable, access to the company's website
may
be impaired and its business will be harmed. The Company's success depends
on
its ability to use the Internet to show prospective customers the type of
products the company has available. The company's website will be the initial
tool used by the company in its sales process. Once a prospective customer
has
seen a picture of a product that interests them they will be quoted a price
and
then the company would send the prospective customer a physical sample of the
product. The company's ability to quickly send color pictures of product and
pricing to prospective customers via the Internet is paramount to the sales
and
marketing strategies of the company. The company's website may also be subject
to malicious attacks by hackers and software viruses - such attacks or viruses
could render the company's website inoperable for a substantial amount of time.
There can be no assurance that the company will have the financial means or
technical know how to protect its website from such attacks or recover from
such
an attack. Any long term interruption of Internet service or interference with
the company's website would have a negative impact on the company's ability
to
fulfill its business model and the company could fail.
Friendly
Auto Dealers’ success is dependent on current management, who may be unable to
devote sufficient time to the development of Friendly Auto Dealers’ business
plan, which could cause the business to fail.
Friendly
Auto Dealers is heavily dependent on the extensive industry experience that
our
sole Officer and Director, Tony H. Lam, brings to the company. If something
were
to happen to him, it would greatly delay its daily operations until further
industry contacts could be established. Furthermore, there is no assurance
that
suitable people could be found to replace Mr. Lam. In that instance, Friendly
Auto Dealers may be unable to further its business plan.
Additionally,
Mr. Lam is employed outside of Friendly Auto Dealers. Mr. Lam has
been and continues to expect to be able to commit approximately 10 hours per
week of his time, to the development of Friendly Auto Dealers’ business plan in
the next twelve months. If management is required to spend additional time
with
his outside employment, he may not have sufficient time to devote to Friendly
Auto Dealers, and, Friendly Auto Dealers would be unable to develop its business
plan.
Because
one existing stockholder owns a majority of the outstanding common stock, future
corporate decisions will be controlled by this person, whose interests may
differ from the interests of other stockholders, and may be adverse to those
other shareholders' interests.
Currently,
our Officers and sole Director owns 87.34% of the outstanding shares of the
Company. If we are successful in selling all the shares in this
Offering, the sole Officer and Director will own approximately 74.34% of the
outstanding shares of common stock. Accordingly, they will have significant
influence in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions, including
mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets,
and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of
this stockholder may differ from the interests of the other stockholders, and
they may make decisions, as a stockholder, with which the other stockholders
may
not agree. Such decisions may be detrimental to Friendly Auto Dealers’ business
plan and/or operations and they may cause the business to fail.
There
is currently no market for Friendly Auto Dealers’ common stock, but if a market
for our common stock does develop, our stock price may be
volatile.
There
is
currently no market for Friendly Auto Dealers’ common stock and there is no
assurance that a market will develop. If a market develops, it is anticipated
that the market price of Friendly Auto Dealers’ common stock will be subject to
wide fluctuations in response to several factors including:
|
o
|
The
ability to complete the development of Friendly Auto Dealers in order
to
provide those products to the
public;
|
|
o
|
The
ability to generate revenues from
sales;
|
|
o
|
The
ability to generate brand recognition of the Friendly Auto Dealers
products and services and acceptance by
consumers;
|
|
o
|
Increased
competition from competitors who offer competing services;
and
|
|
o
|
Friendly
Auto Dealers’ financial condition and results of
operations.
|
Our
stock is a Penny Stock. Trading of our stock may be restricted by the
SEC’s Penny Stock regulations and the NASD’s Sales Practices requirements, which
may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our
stock.
The
Company’s common shares may be deemed to be “penny stock” as that term is
defined in Regulation Section “240.3a51 -1” of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “SEC”). Penny stocks are stocks: (a) with a price of less than
U.S. $5.00 per share; (b) that are not traded on a “recognized” national
exchange; (c) whose prices are not quoted on the NASDAQ automated quotation
system (NASDAQ - where listed stocks must still meet requirement (a) above);
or
(d) in issuers with net tangible assets of less than U.S. $2,000,000 (if the
issuer has been in continuous operation for at least three years) or U.S.
$5,000,000 (if in continuous operation for less than three years), or with
average revenues of less than U.S. $6,000,000 for the last three
years.
Section
“15(g)” of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and
Regulation Section “240.15g(c)2” of the SEC require broker dealers dealing in
penny stocks to
(i)
control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that
are
often related to the promoter or issuer
(ii)
manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales
and
false and misleading press releases
(iii)
boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic
price projections by inexperienced sales persons
(iv)
excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling
broker-dealers
(v)
the
wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after
prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting
inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor
losses
Our
management is aware of the abuses that have occurred historically in the penny
stock market. Although we do not expect to be in a position to dictate the
behavior of the market or of broker-dealers who participate in the market,
management will strive within the confines of practical limitations to prevent
the described patterns from being established with respect to our
securities.
While
Friendly Auto Dealers expects to apply for listing on the OTC Bulletin Board
(OTCBB), we may not be approved, and even if approved, we may not be approved
for trading on the OTCBB; therefore shareholders may not have a market to sell
their shares, either in the near term or in the long term, or
both
.
We
can
provide no assurance to investors that our common stock will be traded on any
exchange or electronic quotation service. While we expect to apply to the OTC
Bulletin Board, we may not be approved to trade on the OTCBB, and we may not
meet the requirements for listing on the OTCBB. If we do not meet the
requirements of the OTCBB, our are certain risks inherent in doing business
internationally, such as unexpected changes in regulatory stock may then
be traded on the "Pink Sheets," and the market for resale of our shares would
decrease dramatically, if not be eliminated.
Friendly
Auto Dealers plans to purchase products Overseas, and is therefore subject
to
risks related to currency fluctuations and regulation that may adversely affect
the Company
.
A
significant aspect of the company's strategy is to purchase its products
overseas, mostly in China. There requirements, export restrictions,
trade barriers, difficulties in controlling product supply from foreign
factories, longer than anticipated delivery cycles, fluctuations in currency
exchange rates and overall political instability.
There
can
be no assurance that one or more of such factors will not have a material
adverse effect on the company's potential future operations and, consequently,
on the company's business, operating results and financial
condition.
The
company may purchase its products and services in currencies other than the
United States dollar, which would make the management of currency fluctuations
difficult and expose the company to risks in this regard. The company's results
of operations are subject to fluctuations in the value of various currencies
against the United States dollar. Although management will monitor the company's
exposure to currency fluctuations, there can be no assurance that exchange
rate
fluctuations will not have a material adverse effect on the company's results
of
operations or financial condition.
Furthermore
as a corporation based in the United States, Friendly Auto Dealers may face
difficulties in obtaining and/or enforcing local judgments it may obtain
overseas, particularly in China.
The
Company’s inability to source viable promotional products or apparel may result
in a loss of your investment.
There
can
be no assurance that Friendly Auto Dealers will be able to source viable
promotional products or apparel that will be appealing to its target market.
Even if the company is capable of locating a viable line of promotional products
and apparel from China, it faces inherit risks in the ordering and delivery
of
such products. The company would have little or no recourse against a Chinese
manufacturer that delivered substandard or faulty products and the company
could
lose its entire investment
in
ordering such products
Friendly
Auto Dealers has limited financial resources at present, and proceeds from
the
offering may not be used to fully develop its
business
.
Friendly
Auto Dealers has limited financial resources at present; as of August 31 it
had
$5,000 of cash on hand. If it is unable to develop its business plan, it may
be
required to divert certain proceeds from the sale of Friendly Auto Dealers’
stock to general administrative functions. If Friendly Auto Dealers is required
to divert some or all of proceeds from the sale of stock to areas that do not
advance the business plan, it could adversely affect its ability to continue
by
restricting the Company's ability to become listed on the OTCBB; advertise
and
promote the Company and its products; travel to develop new marketing, business
and customer relationships; and retaining and/or compensating professional
advisors.
Friendly
Auto Dealers has no customers to date, and may not develop sufficient customers
to stay in business.
Friendly
Auto Dealers has not sold any products, and may be unable to do so in the
future. In addition, if Friendly Auto Dealers is unable to develop sufficient
customers for its products, it will not generate enough revenue to sustain
its
business, and may have to adjust its business plan, or it may fail.
Because
we do not have an Escrow or Trust Account for Investor’s Subscriptions, if we
file for Bankruptcy Protection or are forced into Bankruptcy Protection,
Investors will lose their entire investment.
Invested
funds for this offering will not be placed in an escrow or trust account.
Accordingly, if we file for bankruptcy protection or a petition for involuntary
bankruptcy is filed by creditors against us, your funds will become part of
the
bankruptcy estate and administered according to the bankruptcy laws. As such,
you
will
lose
your investment and your funds will be used to pay creditors and will not be
used for the sourcing and sale of promotional products.
These
risk factors, individually or occurring together, would likely have a
substantially negative effect on Friendly Auto Dealers’ business and would
likely cause it to fail.
Forward-Looking
Statements
This
prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. Friendly Auto Dealers uses words such as anticipate, believe,
plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such
forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these
forward-looking statements. Actual results are most likely to differ materially
from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons,
including the risks faced as described in this Risk Factors section and
elsewhere in this prospectus.

The
above figures represent only estimated costs.
International
travel to source products consists of travel to China to visit various
manufacturers of promotional products and/or their agents or representatives.
The main cities to be visited would be Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou.
Shanghai and Shenzhen would have more factory agents or representatives, while
Guangzhou, located in southern China, is a large factory city where many of
Friendly Auto Dealers’ products may be manufactured. Domestic travel
will consist of visits to potential independent contractors for the purpose
of
website development.
Once
the
company has successfully identified the promotional type of products it would
like to carry in its product line, the company will purchase a limited number
of
samples of the selected products to showcase on its website and for shipment
to
prospective customers.
The
company will then hire an Internet consultant to design and build a website
that
would showcase the promotional products the company has to offer to prospective
customers. The design of our website will take place in the United States,
but
upon completion, content will be turned over to contractors for the purpose
of
converting the content to Chinese language.
There
are
several trade shows in Asia that are dedicated to the promotional products
industry. The company would, at a minimum, attend such trade shows and, if
finances allow, have an exhibit booth to display its promotional product
line.
Legal
and
accounting fees refer to the normal legal and accounting costs associated with
filing this Registration Statement.
Readers
will note that Friendly Auto Dealers has already raised a total of $5000 from
the sale of stock. A total of $5000 has been raised from the sale of stock
to
our Officers and sole Director
¾
this stock
is
restricted and is not being registered in this offering. The offering expenses
associated with this offering are believed to be $4,304. As of August 31, 2007,
Friendly Auto Dealers had a balance of $5,000 in cash. Some services related
to
this offering were paid for in Common stock rather than cash payment. This
will
allow Friendly Auto Dealers to pay the entire expenses of this offer from cash
on hand. None of the offering expenses are anticipated to be paid out of the
proceeds of this offering.
One
of
the purposes of the offering is to create an equity market, which allows
Friendly Auto Dealers to more easily raise capital, since a publicly traded
company has more flexibility in its financing offerings than one that does
not.
DETERMINATION
OF OFFERING PRICE
There
is
no established market for the Registrant's stock. Friendly Auto Dealers’
offering price for shares sold pursuant to this offering is set at $0.10. Our
existing shareholders, our Officer/Director paid $0.001 per. share. The
additional factors that were included in determining the sales price are the
lack of liquidity (since there is no present market for Friendly Auto Dealers
stock) and the high level of risk considering the lack of operating history
of
Friendly Auto Dealers.
DILUTION
"Dilution"
represents the difference between the offering price of the shares of common
stock and the net book value per share of common stock immediately after
completion of the offering. "Net book value" is the amount that results
from subtracting total liabilities from total assets. In this offering,
the level of dilution is increased as a result of the relatively low book value
of our issued and outstanding stock. Assuming all shares offered
herein are sold, and given effect to the receipt of the maximum estimated
proceeds of this offering from shareholders net of the offering expenses, our
net book value will be $105,000 or $0.0156134 per share. Therefore, the
purchasers of the common stock in this offering will incur an immediate dilution
of approximately $0.084387 per share while our present stockholders will receive
an increase of $0.0155134 per share in the net tangible book value of the shares
they hold. This will result in a 84.39% dilution for purchasers of stock in
this
offering.
The
following table illustrates the dilution to the purchasers of the common stock
in this offering. While this offering has no minimum, the table below
includes an analysis of the dilution that will occur if only 25% of the shares
are sold, as well as the dilution if all shares are
sold:

PLAN
OF DISTRIBUTION
The
offering consists of a maximum number of 1,000,000 shares being offered by
Friendly Auto Dealers of $0.10 per share.
Company
Offering
Friendly
Auto Dealers is offering for sale common stock. If Friendly Auto Dealers is
unable to sell its stock and raise money, it may not be able to complete its
business plan and may fail.
There
will be no underwriters used, no dealer's commissions, no finder's fees, and
no
passive market making for the shares being offered by Friendly Auto Dealers.
All
of these shares will be issued to business associates, friends, and family
of
the current Friendly Auto Dealers’ shareholders. The Officers and Director of
Friendly Auto Dealers, Tony H. Lam, will not register as broker-dealers in
connection with this offering. Tony H. Lam will not be deemed to be a broker
pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Rule 3a4-1 of the Securities and
Exchange Act of 1934, since he is not subject to statutory disqualification,
will not be compensated directly or indirectly from the sale of securities,
is
not an associated person of a broker or dealer, nor has he been so associated
within the previous twelve months, and primarily performs substantial duties
as
Officer and Director that are not in connection with the sale of securities,
and
has not nor will not participate in the sale of securities more than once every
twelve months.
Our
Common Stock is currently considered a "penny stock" under federal securities
laws (Penny Stock Reform Act, Securities Exchange Act Section 3a (51(A)) since
its market price is below $5.00 per share. Penny stock rules generally impose
additional sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who
sell
or recommend such shares to certain investors.
Broker-dealers
who sell penny stock to certain types of investors are required to comply with
the SEC's regulations concerning the transfer of penny stock. If an exemption
is
not available, these regulations require broker-dealers to: make a suitability
determination prior to selling penny stock to the purchaser; receive the
purchaser's written consent to the transaction; and, provide certain written
disclosures to the purchaser. These rules may affect the ability of
broker-dealers to make a market in, or trade our shares. In turn, this may
make
it very difficult for investors to resell those shares in the public
market

DISCLOSURE
OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT
LIABILITIES
Our
By-laws provide for the elimination of the personal liability of our officers,
directors, corporate employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by
the
provisions of Nevada law. Under such provisions, the director, officer,
corporate employee or agent who in his capacity as such is made or threatened
to
be made, party to any suit or proceeding, shall be indemnified if it is
determined that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner
he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of our
company. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and persons controlling
our
company pursuant to the foregoing provision, or otherwise, we have been advised
that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy
as
expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 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 a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by
the
court's decision.

DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS
Business
Development
Friendly
Auto Dealers Inc. was incorporated on August 6, 2007, in the state of Nevada.
Friendly Auto Dealers has never declared bankruptcy, it has never been in
receivership, and it has never been involved in any legal action or proceedings.
Since becoming incorporated, Friendly Auto Dealers has not made any significant
purchase or sale of assets, nor has it been involved in any mergers,
acquisitions or consolidations. Friendly Auto Dealers is not a blank check
registrant as that term is defined in Rule 419(a)(2) of Regulation C of the
Securities Act of 1933, since it has a specific business plan or
purpose.
Business
of Issuer
General
Friendly
Auto Dealers Inc. is a development stage enterprise and was organized on August
6, 2007 to enter into the promotional apparel and products industry. The Company
intends to sell products to the automotive dealers in China and other parts
of
Asia as well as in the United States.
According
to a study sponsored by the Promotional Products Association International
and
conducted by researchers at Louisiana State University and Glenrich Business
Studies, the promotional products industry in the United States was estimated
to
be $17.3 billion dollars in 2004.
Friendly
Auto Dealers plans to source and then sell novel promotional products initially
to Chinese automobile dealers as well as other corporations and associations
that use promotional products as part of their overall advertising and marketing
strategies. The Company plans to hire contractors in China to emblaze,
embroider, or otherwise affix a customer’s corporate logo or message to the
products.
According
to a study of more than 15,000 promotional product distributors conducted by
researchers at Louisiana State University and Glenrich Business Studies, over
29% of all sales of promotional products are what the industry calls
“wearables”. This product category includes t-shirts, golf-shirts, aprons, caps,
headbands, neckwear and footwear. These are the same products that will be
offered to the Chinese market.
The
largest market category for promotional products is business gifts, accounting
for almost 18% of industry sales. Trade show giveaways account for over 12%
of
industry sales.
Competition
The
promotional apparel and products industry is mature and has many levels of
competition. The industry in general is very fragmented - although
many large, well-capitalized companies exist on a national level, most of our
competition will come from companies focused within their local or regional
market. Most companies have two channels of
distribution: sales through corporate efforts or independent sales
agents; and sales through their internet website.
Examples
of large competitors include
Allied Specialty Company,
of Davie,
Florida, which has been operating for over fifty years and does business
throughout the United States while also exporting to
Canada,
Latin America and Western Europe, as well as
Bernco Specialty
Advertising
of Bethpage, New York, in business since 1947. Many
companies are regionally focused firms in terms of
distribution. Examples include
Elite Design,
with offices in
Clinton Township, Michigan, and manufacturing facilities in Mansfield, Ohio,
and
Promotional Concepts, Inc
. in Alameda, CA, who has operated
successfully since 1992. Hundreds of smaller competitors exist
nationwide who thrive in their local markets only. In Las Vegas,
Nevada, Friendly Auto Dealers’, local market, several well established companies
exist doing business both locally and regionally. However, an
internet search was done by management of Friendly Auto Dealers, and no direct
competitor who used the internet as its primary marketing method could be found
in the Peoples Republic of China.
There
can
be no assurance that Friendly Auto Dealers will ever be able to compete with
any
of the competitors described herein. In addition, there may be other
competitors the company is unaware of at this time that would also impede or
prevent the company’s success.
Please
see RISK FACTORS described herein.
Marketing
Once
the
company has secured its initial promotional products and has purchased its
sample inventory, the company intends to embark on a two-pronged marketing
campaign. The company will, through direct marketing and telephone solicitation,
contact corporations that use promotional products as an integral part of their
overall marketing and brand awareness plan. Many of these organizations will
have giveaway promotional products at special corporate events (trade shows,
vendor meetings, employee meetings, etc.).
The
types
of products used for giveaways include name badges, balls, cell phone holders,
drink containers, key rings, mouse pads, writing pens and stickers bearing
the
sponsors logo.
The
company will develop a website to place pictures of the promotional products
it
wishes to sell to its perspective customers. Customers will be able to visit
the
web site and view products categorized by both type and price. The
website will allow a customer
to
“upload” an electronic version of the company logo that they want embossed,
embroidered or otherwise affixed to the product they are
purchasing.
The
second prong of the company's marketing efforts would commence once the company
has secured an agreement to use a known brand or logo on its line of promotional
products. The company will, through direct marketing efforts, begin to approach
large retailers who may be interested in the company's promotional product
line
with known branding and logos. The company will also display the branded
products on its website for consumers to buy and will also use other electronic
marketing outlets like eBay and Yahoo auction sites serving mainland
China.
Products
and Services
The
company will travel to Asia to locate low cost, high margin products from
reputable manufacturers and subsequently offer these products to corporations
for promotional purposes. Even though the company intends to have a base line
of
promotional products, it does intend to find specific products when requested
to
do so from a prospective customer. The company intends to focus on products
in
two price ranges: one line of products (approximately 40) will be under the
two
dollar range to be marketed for corporate giveaways for special events and
tradeshows. Examples include key rings, writing pens, mouse pads,
letter openers, golf tees and tools, drink holders, luggage tags, and other
inexpensive items commonly used in both business and leisure environments.
The
company also intends to seek out premium promotional products in the “wearable”
sector including t-shirts, polo shirts, denim shirts, aprons, hats, headbands,
outerwear, neckwear and footwear, all priced in the $10 - $50 price
range.
Product
Launch
The
company anticipates traveling to China within 60 days of completing this
offering to source its initial promotional product line. Once the company has
chosen its product line, it will order its samples. The company anticipates
it
will take an additional 60 days for the samples to arrive in North America.
Once
the samples arrive, the company intends to begin the development of its website
and begin direct telephone marketing to corporations who may be interested
in
purchasing its products or to corporations that have recognized brands and
logos
that would be interested in licensing its brands and logos for a royalty on
product sales through traditional retail outlets. The samples will be
photographed and placed on its Chinese language website.
Competitive
Advantages
There
are
many competitors in the promotional products industry in North America. Current
statistics estimate that over 21,000 companies supply promotional products.
The
company feels it will have a competitive advantage over most of its competitors
because the company intends to travel to China and purchase products directly
from the manufacturer resulting in a pricing advantage over its competitors
as
well a marketing its products in the rapidly growing Chinese market.. Products
will not be shipped first to North America and then reshipped to China. Instead,
all manufacturing and fulfillment will be done in China. Marketing only will
occur in the United States. Most promotional companies tend to attend trade
shows in North America to purchase their products from representatives based
in
Hong Kong or America. Friendly Auto Dealers plans to attend trade
shows in China and other Asian countries to not only promote its products,
but
gain access to the manufacturers of our raw products. Prices offered by such
representatives typically include a mark-up of 20% - 40% that can be eliminated
if purchasing directly from the manufacturers in China. In addition, by
maintaining inventory in China, shipping costs can also be eliminated and
therefore fulfillment can be achieved at costs consistent with maintaining
a
competitive position. Many companies do not feel comfortable traveling and
doing
business in China and feel they can source most of their products by attending
North American trade shows. The company's market research to date shows that
it
can purchase products directly from China-based manufacturers at a significant
cost reduction to the pricing currently available from representatives in Hong
Kong or North America.
Website
Consultant
As
of the
date of this Prospectus, Friendly Auto Dealers has not hired any Consultants
to
assist in the development of our website. When and if this
registration becomes effective, the Company will interview and hire a Website
Consultant to perform the following:
|
·
|
Design,
construct and implement the website
|
|
·
|
Create
and optimize graphics interface and HTML files to be uploaded onto
a web
server
|
|
·
|
Create
navigation functionality and link set up onto multiple HTML
pages
|
|
·
|
Assist
in developing an overall internet marketing strategy to include links
to
industry related sites, placement of banners ads, search engine
positioning, and email marketing
campaigns.
|
Employees
Other
than Friendly Auto Dealers’ Director and Executive Officer who is currently
donating his time to the development of the Company, there are no employees
of
the Company. Friendly Auto Dealers has no intention to hire employees until
the
business has been successfully launched with sales revenues flowing into it.
Friendly Auto Dealers’ Officer and Director intends to do whatever work is
necessary to bring the Company to the point of earning revenues from the sale
of
the products. Human resource planning will be part of an ongoing process that
will include constant evaluation of operations and revenue
realization.
REPORTS
TO SECURITY HOLDERS
Friendly
Auto Dealers is not required to provide annual reports to security holders.
After the registration of the shares to be sold by way of this prospectus,
Friendly Auto Dealers is expected to be fully reporting and will make available
an annual report in the form of its report on Form 10-KSB, which will include
audited financial statements.
Upon
effectiveness of this Form SB-2, Friendly Auto Dealers expects to be subject
to
the reporting requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC")
and
will file reports including, but not limited to, Annual Reports on Form 10-KSB,
Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB, Current Event Reports on Form 8-K, and Proxy
Statements on Schedule 14.
The
public may read and copy any materials Friendly Auto Dealers files with the
SEC
at the SEC's Public Reference Room at 450 Fifth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C.
20549. The Public may obtain information on the operation of the Public
Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-800-SEC-0330. The SEC maintains an
Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and
other
information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC and the
address of that site is www.sec.gov.
PLAN
OF OPERATION
This
section of the prospectus includes a number of forward-looking statements that
reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial
performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like:
believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions,
or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place
undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of
the
date of this prospectus. These forward-looking states are subject to certain
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from historical results or our predictions.
We
are a
start-up corporation attempting to enter into the promotional products industry.
We have not yet generated or realized any revenues from business
operations.
Our
auditors have issued a going concern opinion. This means that there is
substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business for the next
twelve months unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is
because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated
until
we begin marketing our products to customers. Accordingly, we must raise cash
from sources other than revenues generated from the sale of our promotional
products. Our only other source for cash at this time is investments
by others in this offering.
We
must
raise cash to implement our project. The minimum amount of funds raised from
the
offering that we feel will allow us to implement our business strategy is
$25,000. We feel if we can raise the maximum amount of the offering ($100,000),
the company will be able to accelerate the implementation of
its business strategy by hiring more experienced marketing
consultants and by attending more customer-oriented trade shows.
The
line
of promotional products the company chooses to purchase and the appeal of those
products to both corporations and consumers will determine our success or
failure.
It
is
essential to the company's success that it can demonstrate timely delivery
of
the product orders it generates from its customers. The company anticipates
in
the giveaway promotional market that orders will be time sensitive, as they
will
be used at a specific event on a specific date.
The
company's success is also reliant on its ability to purchase products directly
from the manufacturer. We cannot state whether we will be successful in
negotiating competitive pricing from these manufacturers. The company will
not
attempt to begin sourcing products until we have raised capital from this
offering.
To
meet
our need for cash, we are attempting to raise funds from this offering. Whatever
funds we do raise, will be applied to the items set forth in the Use of Proceeds
section of this prospectus. If we can source a desirable promotional line that
we can purchase and we receive a positive reaction from our potential customers,
it is feasible we may have to attempt to raise additional money through a
subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans to purchase
additional inventory or finance large product orders. If we do not raise all
of
the funds we need from this offering to complete our initial promotional product
sourcing and sample purchases, we will have to find alternative sources, like
a
second public offering, a private placement of securities, or loans from our
officers or others.
At
present, our officer is unwilling to make any commitment to loan us any money
at
this time, but may reconsider if we source desirable promotional products at
reasonable pricing. At the present time, we have not made any
arrangements to raise additional cash, other than through this offering. If
we
need additional cash and can't raise it, we will either have to suspend
marketing operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely.
If we raise the maximum amount of money from this offering, it is estimated
that
it will satisfy expenditures for twelve to fourteen months. Other than as
described in this paragraph, we have no other financing plans.
If
we are
unable to complete any phase of our promotional product sourcing or marketing
efforts because we don't have enough money, we will cease our sourcing and
or
marketing operations until we raise more money. Attempting to raise additional
capital after failing in any phase of our promotional product-sourcing plan
would be difficult. As such, if we cannot secure additional proceeds we will
have to cease operations and investors would lose their entire
investment.
Management
does not plan to hire additional employees at this time. Our President will
be
responsible for the initial promotional product sourcing. Once the company
is
ready to build its Internet website, it will hire an independent consultant
to
build the site. The company also intends to hire sales representatives initially
on a commission only basis to keep administrative overhead to a
minimum.
From
inception to August 31, 2007 the company's business operations have primarily
been focused on developing an executive marketing strategy, along with industry
market research and competitive analysis. The Company has also dedicated time
to
the preparation of its registration statement, including accounting and
auditing.
Over
the
next 12 months the company must raise additional capital after this registration
statement becomes effective. The company must begin the process of sourcing
its
products in order to supply perspective customers with product samples. The
company must develop a web site in order to showcase its products, hire
commission only sales staff and begin a sales and marketing
campaign.
The
Company anticipates it will be able to begin sourcing products within 120 days
of this registration statement becoming effective and shares registered
thereunder sold The sourcing process would entail the company's
management deciding which factories in China it would like to visit to purchase
product samples and negotiate pricing and delivery of the products chosen.
Once
the company has identified its potential product suppliers the company's
President will travel to Asia and visit the identified product manufacturers.
The company anticipates it will have its initial product samples within 180
days
of this registration statement becoming effective. The company anticipates
the
minimum cost of travel and initial sample orders to be $8,000.
Once
the
company has taken physical delivery of its initial product samples the company
will have to develop a website to showcase its product line to prospective
customers. The company anticipates that the cost to fully develop the web site
would be $15,000. The company anticipates that the web site could be functional
approximately 270 days after this registration becomes effective.
The
company will have to hire a commission sales person to begin its sales and
marketing efforts. The company anticipates it will hire a commission sales
person within approximately 270 days of this registration statement becoming
effective.
The company
anticipates the costs of its sales and marketing efforts to be approximately
$40,000. The company anticipates the sales cycle (the length of time between
initial customer contact and sale completion) to be a minimum of 90 days. The
company anticipates it would complete initial product sales 360 days after
this
registration statement becomes effective.
Limited
Operating History; Need for Additional Capital
There
is
no historical financial information about us upon which to base an evaluation
of
our performance. Friendly Auto Dealers was incorporated in the State of Nevada
on August 6, ,2007; we are a development stage company attempting to enter
into
the promotional products industry and have not generated any revenues from
operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business
operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent in the establishment
of a
new business enterprise, including limited capital resources, and implementation
of our business strategies.(See "Risk Factors").
To
become
profitable and competitive, we must first source desirable promotional products
overseas; negotiate favorable pricing and delivery, and purchase initial samples
to provide to prospective customers.
We
are
seeking equity financing though this offering to provide for the capital
required to source our initial promotional products. Equity financing could
result in additional dilution to existing shareholders. There is no assurance
we
will receive the required financing to complete our initial promotional product
sourcing.
Even
if
we are successful in raising proceeds from this offering we have
no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable
terms. If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be
unable to continue, develop or expand our operations.
At
the
present time, Friendly Auto Dealers has sufficient funds to address the
administrative costs of this offering only. This assumption is based on the
fact
that, as of August 31, 2007, Friendly Auto Dealers had cash on hand (less
outstanding checks) of $5,000. As per Other Expenses Of Issuance And
Distribution on page 32, Friendly Auto Dealers intends to spend $4,304 related
to this offering. As of August 31, 2007, none of the $4,304 has been spent,
thereby leaving all of the $4,304 estimated to be spent on this offering to
be
spent. This leaves $696 for general operating expenses while Friendly Auto
Dealers waits for this filing to become effective. However, as explained in
Note
1 of the August 31, 2007 financial statements, Friendly Auto Dealers has no
established source of revenue and has suffered an operating loss in its initial
periods of operations.
Friendly
Auto Dealers has no plans to undertake product research and development during
the term covered by this registration. There are also no plans or expectations
to purchase or sell any plant and or significant equipment in the first year
of
operations. Management also has no intention of hiring a significant number
of
employees during the first year of operations.

Report
of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To
the
Board of Directors
Friendly
Auto Dealers, Inc.
Las
Vegas, Nevada
We
have
audited the accompanying balance sheets of Friendly Auto Dealers, Inc. (A
Development Stage Enterprise) as of August 31, 2007 the related statements
of
operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the period August 6, 2007
(inception) through August 31, 2007. 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. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such
opinion. An audit 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 provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In
our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Friendly Auto Dealers, Inc. (A
Development Stage Enterprise) as of August 31, 2007 and the results of its
operations and cash flows for period August 6, 2007 (inception) through August
31, 2007, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial
statements, the Company has limited operations and has no established source
of
revenue. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue
as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also
described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any
adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note
1.
|
Nature
of Business and Significant Accounting
Policies
|
Nature
of business:
Friendly
Auto Dealers, Inc. (“Company”) was organized August 6, 2007 under the laws of
the State of Nevada for the purpose of providing promotional items with
corporate logos to the automotive industry in China. The Company
currently has no operations or realized revenues from its planned principle
business purpose and, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard (SFAS) No. 7, “
Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage
Enterprises
,” is considered a Development Stage Enterprise.
A
summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is as
follows:
Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
Cash
For
the
Statements of Cash Flows, all highly liquid investments with maturity of three
months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. There were no
cash equivalents as of August 31, 2007.
Income
taxes
Income
taxes are provided for using the
liability method of accounting in accordance with SFAS No. 109
“Accounting for Income
Taxes,”
and clarified by
FIN
48,
“Accounting for
Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement
No. 109.”
A deferred tax asset
or
liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax
reporting. Temporary differences are the differences between the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax
basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when,
in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion
or
all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and
rates on the date of enactment.
Share
Based Expenses
In
December 2004, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 123R “
Share Based Payment
.”
This
statement is a revision to
SFAS 123 and supersedes Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion
No. 25, “
Accounting for Stock
Issued to
Employees
,” and amends
FASB Statement No. 95, “
Statement of Cash
Flows.
” This statement
requires a public entity to expense the cost of employee services received
in
exchange for an award of equity instruments. This statement also provides
guidance on valuing and expensing these awards, as well as disclosure
requirements of these equity arrangements. The Company adopted SFAS
No. 123R upon creation of the company and expenses share based costs in the
period incurred.

NOTES
TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note
1.
|
Nature
of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
(continued)
|
Going
concern
The
Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern. This
contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in
the
normal course of business. Currently, the Company does not have cash
nor material assets, nor does it have operations or a source of revenue
sufficient to cover its operation costs and allow it to continue as a going
concern. The Company will be dependent upon the raising of additional
capital through placement of our common stock in order to implement its business
plan, or merge with an operating company. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be successful in either situation in order to continue
as
a going concern. The officers and directors have committed to
advancing certain operating costs of the Company.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2006, the SEC Staff issued SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 107,
“Implementation Guidance for FASB 123 (R).” The
staff believes the guidance in the SAB will assist issuers in their
initial implementation of Statement 123R
and enhance the information received by
investors and other users of
financial statements, thereby assisting them
in making investment and other decisions. This SAB
includes interpretive guidance related to share-based payment
transactions with non-employees, the transition from nonpublic to
public entity status, valuation methods (including assumptions such as
expected volatility and
expected term), the accounting for
certain redeemable financials instruments issued under share-based payment
arrangements,
the classification of compensation expense, non-GAAP financial measures,
first-time adoption of Statement 123R in an interim
period, capitalization of compensation cost related to
share-based payment arrangements, the
accounting for income tax effects
of share-based payment arrangements upon adoption
of Statement 123R and disclosures of MD&A subsequent to adoption of
Statement 123R.
In
September 2006, the SEC Staff issued
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year
Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in the Current Year Financial
Statements” (“SAB No. 108”). SAB No. 108 requires the use of two
alternative approaches in quantitatively evaluating materiality of
misstatements. If the misstatement as quantified under either approach is
material to the current year financial statements, the misstatement must be
corrected. If the effect of correcting the prior year misstatements, if any,
in
the current year income statement is material, the prior year financial
statements should be corrected. In the year of adoption (fiscal years ending
after November 15, 2006 or calendar year 2006 for us), the misstatements
may be corrected as an accounting change by adjusting opening retained earnings
rather than being included in the current year income statement. We do not
expect that the adoption of SAB No. 108 will have a material impact on our
financial condition or results of operations.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (SFAS
157). SFAS 157 provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and
liabilities. SFAS 157 addresses the requests from investors for expanded
disclosure about the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities
at
fair value, the information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair
value measurements on earnings. SFAS 157 applies whenever other standards
require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, and
does
not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective
for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2007 and will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year
2009. We do not expect that the adoption of SFAS 157 will have a
material impact on our financial condition or results of
operations.

Nature
of Business and Significant Accounting Policies
(continued)
|
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS
No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other
Postretirement Plans” (“SFAS No. 158”). SFAS No. 158 requires
companies to recognize in their statement of financial position an asset for
a
plan’s overfunded status or a liability for a plan’s underfunded status and to
measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as
of the end of the company’s fiscal year. Additionally, SFAS No. 158
requires companies to recognize changes in the funded status of a defined
benefit postretirement plan in the year that the changes occur and those changes
will be reported in
comprehensive
income. The provision of
SFAS No. 158 that will require us to recognize the funded status of our
postretirement plans, and the disclosure requirements, will be effective for
us
as of
December 31,
2006
.
We
do not expect that the adoption of
SFAS No. 158 will have a material impact on our consolidated financial
statements.
FAS 123(R)-5 was issued on
October 10, 2006
. The
FSP provides that instruments that
were originally issued as employee compensation and
then modified, and that modification is made to the terms of the instrument
solely to reflect an
equity restructuring that occurs when
the holders are no longer employees, then no change in the
recognition or the measurement (due to a change
in classification) of
those instruments will result if both of the following
conditions are met: (a). There is no increase in fair value of the award (or
the
ratio of intrinsic value
to
the exercise price
of the award is preserved, that is, the holder is made whole), or the
antidilution provision is not added to the terms of the award
in contemplation of an
equity restructuring; and (b). All holders of the same
class of equity instruments (for example, stock options) are treated in the
same
manner. The provisions in this FSP shall be applied in the first
reporting period beginning after the date the FSP is posted to the FASB
website. We will evaluate whether the adoption will have any impact
on your financial statements
.
In
February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities - Including an amendment of FASB Statement
No.
115” (hereinafter “SFAS No. 159”). This statement 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. This statement is expected to expand the use of fair
value measurement, which is consistent with the Board’s long-term measurement
objectives for accounting for financial instruments. This statement is effective
as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November
15, 2007, although earlier adoption is permitted. Management has not determined
the effect that adopting this statement would have on the Company’s financial
condition or results of operations.

issuance of 5,000,000 shares of its $.001 par value common stock at $0.001
per

issuance of 725,000 shares at $0.01 per share for $7,250 in legal and business
services. As of August 31, 2007, the shares were unissued and
considered subscribed.
The

a
par value of $.001. The Company has no preferred stock issued or

Net
loss per common share
Net
loss
per share is calculated in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “
Earnings Per
Share.
” The weighted-average number of common shares outstanding
during each period is used to compute basic loss per share. Diluted
loss per share is computed using the weighted averaged number of shares and
dilutive potential common shares outstanding. Dilutive potential
common shares are additional common shares assumed to be exercised.
Basic
net
loss per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares of
common stock outstanding during 2007 and since inception. As of
August 31, 2007 and since inception, the Company had no common shares
outstanding. As of August 31, 2007 and since inception, the Company
had no dilutive potential common shares.
We
did
not provide any current or deferred U.S. federal income tax provision or benefit
for any of the periods presented because we have experienced operating losses
since inception. Per Statement of Accounting Standard No. 109 – Accounting for
Income Tax and FASB Interpretation No. 48 - Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No.109, when it is more likely than
not that a tax asset cannot be realized through future income the Company must
allow for this future tax benefit. We provided a full valuation allowance
on the net deferred tax asset, consisting of net operating loss carryforwards,
because management has determined that it is more likely than not that we will
not earn income sufficient to realize the deferred tax assets during the
carryforward period.

PART
II - INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN THE PROSPECTUS
INDEMNIFICATION
OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Our
officers and directors are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised
Statutes (the “NRS”) and our bylaws.
Under
the
NRS, director
immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary
liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a
company's articles of incorporation that is not the case with our articles
of
incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are:
|
1.
|
A
willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its shareholders
in
connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict
of
interest;
|
|
2.
|
A
violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause
to
believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause
to
believe that his or her conduct was
unlawful);
|
|
3.
|
A
transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
profit;
and
|
Our
bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest
extent not prohibited by Nevada law; provided, however, that we may modify
the
extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and
officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify
any
director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof)
initiated by such person unless:
|
1.
|
Such
indemnification is expressly required to be made by
law;
|
|
2.
|
The
proceeding was authorized by our Board of
Directors;
|
|
3.
|
Such
indemnification is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant
to the
powers vested us under Nevada law;
or
|
|
4.
|
Such
indemnification is required to be made pursuant to the
bylaws.
|
Our
bylaws provide that we will advance all expenses incurred to any person who
was
or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending
or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative
or
investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was our director or officer,
or is or was serving at our request as a director or executive officer of
another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior
to
the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request. This
advancement of expenses is to be made upon receipt of an undertaking by or
on
behalf of such person to repay said amounts should it be ultimately determined
that the person was not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or
otherwise.
Our
bylaws also provide that no advance shall be made by us to any officer in any
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the
board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who
were not parties to the proceeding; or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable,
or,
even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by
independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the
decision- making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate
clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner
that
such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to our best
interests.

UNDERTAKINGS
The
undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
To
file,
during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective
amendment to this registration statement:
(a)
To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of
1933;
(b)
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together,
represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that
which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus
filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the
changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee"
table in the effective registration statement; and
(c)
To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this registration statement or any material change
to
such information in the registration statement.
That,
for
the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
To
remove
from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered hereby which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to the directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the
provisions above, or otherwise, Friendly Auto Dealers has been advised that
in
the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification
is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore,
unenforceable.
In
the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities, other than
the
payment by us of expenses incurred or paid by one of the directors, officers,
or
controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding, is asserted by one of the directors, officers, or controlling
persons in connection with the securities being registered, Friendly Auto
Dealers 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 whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in
the Securities Act, and Friendly Auto Dealers will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant
