You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not authorized any other person to provide you with information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. We are not making an offer to sell those securities in any jurisdiction where the offer and sale is not permitted. The information appearing in this prospectus is accurate only as of the date on the front cover of this prospectus. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date.
 
 
The following summary highlights selected information contained in this prospectus. This summary does not contain all the information you should consider before investing in the securities. Before making an investment decision, you should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section, the financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. As used throughout this prospectus, the terms “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Celsius Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation, and/or our wholly owned subsidiaries, Celsius Inc. and Celsius Netshipments, Inc., as the case may be.

 
 
Business
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc (the “Company”) is in the business of producing, distributing and marketing functional beverages. We are a Nevada corporation. We operate in the United States through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Celsius Inc. and Celsius Netshipments, Inc. Celsius, Inc. acquired the operating business of Elite FX, Inc. (“Elite”) through a reverse merger on January 26, 2007 (the “Merger Agreement”). Celsius, Inc. is in the business of developing and marketing functional beverages in the functional beverage category of the beverage industry. Celsius® was Elite’s first commercially available product. Celsius is a calorie burning soda. Celsius is currently available in five flavors: cola, ginger ale, lemon/lime, orange and wild berry. Two new flavors will be introduced in September, 2008, green teas with the flavor of peach/mango and raspberry/acai. Celsius Netshipments, Inc., incorporated in Florida on March 29, 2007, is in the business of selling Celsius, Inc.’s products via the internet.
 
We have suffered losses from operations, have a stockholders’ deficit, and have a negative working capital. Our auditors have raised substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. Management entered into a financing agreement on August 8, 2008 with CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“CDS”), to provide funds needed for working capital and marketing expenses.
 
Our principal executive offices are located at 140 NE 4th Avenue, Delray Beach, FL 33483. Our telephone number is (561) 276-2239 and our website is http://www.celsius.com. Through a link on our website we provide free access to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for our directors, officers and employees, available on our website, and we will post on our website any waivers of, or amendments to, such code of ethics. We intend to make certain charters of the committees of our Board of Directors (the “Board”) available on our website in the future. Our website and the information contained therein or linked thereto do not constitute part of and are not incorporated by reference into this Prospectus.
 
The Offering

CDS, a Selling Stockholder under this Prospectus, is offering for sale up to 31,250,000 shares of our Common Stock hereto.  On August 8, 2008, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with CDS.  Under the Purchase Agreement, CDS purchased 2,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock , evidenced by a certificate of designation filed with the Nevada Secretary of State (the “Certificate of Designation”) and the right to purchase up to an additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (two million dollars) consisting of a cash payment of $1,500,000 and the cancellation of two notes in aggregate amount of $500,000 issued by the Company to CD Financial, LLC, an affiliate of CDS (the “Purchase Price”). The purchase of any part of the additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Additional Shares”) will have a consideration of $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock.  CDS has the right to convert the Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock at any time. The conversion price is $0.08 (eight cents) per share of common stock for a period of 200 days from the date on which the Certificate of Designation is effective with the Nevada Secretary of State.  Thereafter, the conversion price shall be the greater of (i) 90% of the Market Price on the conversion date and (ii) $0.08 (eight cents) as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events. Market price means the average of the ten daily volume weighted average prices for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the applicable date of determination.

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into a registration rights agreement with CDS (the “Registration Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Agreement, we are obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the shares of Common Stock underlying the Purchase Agreement.
 
In addition to those shares being offered by CDS as described above, 11,184,016 shares are being offered by CD Financial, LLC (“CDF”), a Florida limited liability company.
 
We issued to CDF a convertible note for $250,000 on December 18, 2007, and an additional note on April 4, 2008 for $500,000. Both notes were converted into 11,184,016 shares of the Company’s Common Stock on June 10, 2008.

An investment in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this Prospectus before investing in our Common Stock. As a result of the risk factors set forth below, actual results could differ materially from those projected in any forward-looking statements.
 
 
 
 
Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently consider to be immaterial, may also impact our business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition. If any such risks occur, our business, operating results, liquidity and financial condition could be materially affected in an adverse manner. Under such circumstances, the trading price of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Please note that throughout this Prospectus, the words “we”, “our” or “us” refer to the Company and not to the Selling Stockholders.

We have a limited operating history with significant losses and expect losses to continue for the foreseeable future.
 
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 26, 2005 under the name “Vector Ventures Corp.” The Company changed its name to “Celsius Holdings, Inc.” on December 26, 2006. We are a holding company and carry on no operating business except through our direct wholly-owned subsidiaries, Celsius, Inc. and Celsius Netshipments, Inc. Celsius, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on January 18, 2007, and merged with Elite on January 26, 2007, which was incorporated in Florida on April 22, 2004. Celsius Netshipments, Inc. was incorporated in Florida on March 29, 2007.
 
It is difficult to evaluate our business future and prospects as we are a young company with a limited operating history. At this stage of our business operations, even with our good faith efforts, potential investors have a high probability of losing their investment. Our future operating results will depend on many factors, including the ability to generate sustained and increased demand and acceptance of our products, the level of our competition, and our ability to attract and maintain key management and employees.
 
We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations.  We have incurred annual operating losses of $3.7 million, $1.5 million and $853,000, respectively, during the past three fiscal years of operation.  We have incurred an operating loss during the first six months ending June 30, 2008 of $2.1 million. As a result, at June 30, 2008 we had an accumulated deficit of $8.2 million. Our revenues have not been sufficient to sustain our operations.  We expect that our revenues will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future.  Our profitability will require the successful commercialization of our current product Celsius® and any future products we develop.  No assurances can be given when this will occur or that we will ever be profitable.
 
We will require additional financing to sustain our operations and without it we may not be able to continue operations.
 
At June 30, 2008, we had a working capital deficit of $1.5 million. The independent auditor’s report for the year ended December 31, 2007, includes an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinion stating that our recurring losses from operations and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  We have an operating cash flow deficit of $1.9 million for the six-month period ending June 30, 2008 and an operating cash flow deficit of $2.6 million and $1.2 million, for the twelve month periods ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.  We do not currently have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations or those of our subsidiaries.  Therefore, we need additional funds to continue these operations.
 
The sale of our Common Stock to Fusion Capital, Golden Gate Investors, LLC, CD Financial, LLC and CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC may cause dilution and the sale of the shares of Common Stock acquired by Fusion Capital, Golden Gate Investors, LLC, CD Financial, LLC and CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC could cause the price of our Common Stock to decline.
 
In connection with entering into a common stock purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Fusion Capital Fund II, LLC (“Fusion Capital”), we authorized the sale to Fusion Capital of up to 13,193,305 shares of our Common Stock.  The number of shares ultimately offered for sale by Fusion Capital is dependent upon the number of shares purchased by Fusion Capital under the Purchase Agreement. The purchase price for the Common Stock to be sold to Fusion Capital pursuant to the Purchase Agreement will fluctuate based on the price of our Common Stock. All 13,193,305 shares registered are freely tradable.  It is anticipated that these shares will be sold over a period of up to twenty-five months until November 16, 2009.  Depending upon market liquidity at the time, a sale of shares under this offering at any given time could cause the trading price of our Common Stock to decline.  Fusion Capital may ultimately purchase all, some or none of the 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock not yet issued but registered.  After it has acquired such shares, it may sell all, some or none of such shares.  Therefore, sales to Fusion Capital by us under the Purchase Agreement may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of our Common Stock. The sale of a substantial number of shares of our Common Stock, or anticipation of such sales, could make it more difficult for us to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future at a time and at a price that we might otherwise wish to effect sales.  However, we have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales of our shares to Fusion Capital and the Purchase Agreement may be terminated by us at any time at our discretion without any cost to us.
 
In connection with issuing a convertible debenture to Golden Gate Investors, LLC (“GGI”), we are not obligated to convert the debenture, if the price of our shares is below $0.20. We have issued 3.5 million shares to GGI between June 16 and August 6, 2008, as partial conversion of the debenture. We may have to issue more than 20 million shares to GGI, upon their requests to convert the debenture.
 
 
 
 
On June 10, 2008, the total amount of $750,000 in notes payable to CD Financial, LLC was converted to 11,184,016 shares of Common Stock of which 7,456,011 shares are freely tradable, as of June 30, 2008.
 
In connection with issuing 2,000 Series A Preferred Shares in August 2008, CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC can convert these into 25 million shares of Common Stock.
 
We have not achieved profitability on an annual basis and expect to continue to incur net losses in future quarters, which could force us to discontinue operations.
 
We recorded a net loss of $1.5 million and $3.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, and 2007, respectively, and a loss of $2.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. We had an accumulated deficit of $8.2 million as of June 30, 2008. We could incur net losses for the foreseeable future as we expand our business. We will need to generate additional revenue from the sales of our products or take steps to reduce operating costs to achieve and maintain profitability. Even if we are able to increase revenue, we may experience price competition that will lower our gross margins and our profitability. If we do achieve profitability, we cannot be certain that we can sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis and we could be forced to discontinue our operations.
 
We depend upon our trademarks and proprietary rights, and any failure to protect our intellectual property rights or any claims that we are infringing upon the rights of others may adversely affect our competitive position.
 
 Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to protect our current and future brands and products and to defend our intellectual property rights. We cannot be sure that trademarks will be issued with respect to any future trademark applications or that our competitors will not challenge, invalidate or circumvent any existing or future trademarks issued to, or licensed by, us. We believe that our competitors, many of whom are more established, and have greater financial and personnel resources than we do, may be able to replicate our processes, brands, flavors, or unique market segment products in a manner that could circumvent our protective safeguards. Therefore, we cannot give you any assurance that our confidential business information will remain proprietary.
 
We rely predominately on wholesale distributors for the success of our business, the loss or poor performance of which may materially and adversely affect our business.
 
We sell our products principally to wholesalers for resale to retail outlets including grocery stores, convenience stores, nutritional and drug stores. The replacement or poor performance of the Company's major wholesalers and or the Company's inability to collect accounts receivable from the Company's major wholesalers could materially and adversely affect the Company's results of operations and financial condition. Distribution channels for beverage products have been characterized in recent years by rapid change, including consolidations of certain wholesalers. In addition, wholesalers and retailers of the Company's products offer products which compete directly with the Company's products for retail shelf space and consumer purchases. Accordingly, there is a risk that these wholesalers or retailers may give higher priority to products of the Company's competitors. In the future, the Company's wholesalers and retailers may not continue to purchase the Company's products or provide the Company's products with adequate levels of promotional support.
 
We may incur material losses as a result of product recall and product liability.
 
 We may be liable if the consumption of any of our products causes injury, illness or death. We also may be required to recall some of our products if they become contaminated or are damaged or mislabeled. A significant product liability judgment against us, or a widespread product recall, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The government may adopt regulations that could increase our costs or our liabilities. The amount of the insurance we carry is limited, and that insurance is subject to certain exclusions and may or may not be adequate.
 
We may not be able to develop successful new products, which could impede our growth and cause us to sustain future losses.
 
Part of our strategy is to increase our sales through the development of new products. We cannot assure you that we will be able to develop, market, and distribute future products that will enjoy market acceptance. The failure to develop new products that gain market acceptance could have an adverse impact on our growth and materially adversely affect our financial condition.
 
Our lack of product diversification and inability to timely introduce new or alternative products could cause us to cease operations. 
 
Our business is centered on healthier functional beverages. The risks associated with focusing on a limited product line are substantial. If consumers do not accept our products or if there is a general decline in market demand for, or any significant decrease in, the consumption of nutritional beverages, we are not financially or operationally capable of introducing alternative products within a short time frame. As a result, such lack of acceptance or market demand decline could cause us to cease operations.
 
 
 
Our directors and executive officers beneficially own a substantial amount of our Common Stock, and therefore other stockholders will not be able to direct our Company.
 
The majority of our shares and the voting control of the Company is held by a relatively small group of stockholders, who are also our directors and executive officers. Accordingly, these persons, as a group, will be able to exert significant influence over the direction of our affairs and business, including any determination with respect to our acquisition or disposition of assets, future issuances of Common Stock or other securities, and the election or removal of directors. Such a concentration of ownership may also have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of the Company or cause the market price of our stock to decline. Notwithstanding the exercise of the fiduciary duties of these directors and executive officers and any duties that such other stockholder may have to us or our other stockholders in general, these persons may have interests different than yours.
 
We are dependent on our key executives, the loss of which may have a material adverse effect on our Company.
 
Our future success will depend substantially upon the abilities of, and personal relationships developed by, Stephen C. Haley, our Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the Board and majority stockholder, Jan Norelid our Chief Financial Officer, and Mrs. Irina Lorenzi, our Innovations VP. The loss of Messrs. Haley, Norelid and Lorenzi’s services could materially adversely affect our business and our prospects for the future. We do not have key person insurance on the lives of such individuals. Our future success also depends on our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified technical and managerial personnel. Competition for such personnel in the functional beverage industry is intense and we may not be able to retain our key managerial and technical employees or that it will be able to attract and retain additional highly qualified technical and managerial personnel in the future. The inability to attract and retain the necessary technical and managerial personnel could have a material and adverse affect upon our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
Our Common Stock is deemed a low-priced "Penny" stock, therefore an investment in our Common Stock should be considered high risk and subject to marketability restrictions.
 
Since our Common Stock is a penny stock, as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act, it will be more difficult for investors to liquidate their investment. Until the trading price of the Common Stock rises above $5.00 per share, if ever, trading in our Common Stock is subject to the penny stock rules of the Exchange Act specified in rules 15g-1 through 15g-10. Those rules require broker-dealers, before effecting transactions in any penny stock, to:
 
·  
Deliver to the customer, and obtain a written receipt for, a disclosure document;
·  
Disclose certain price information about the stock;
·  
Disclose the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer or any associated person of the broker-dealer;
·  
Send monthly statements to customers with market and price information about the penny stock; and,
·  
In some circumstances, approve the purchaser's account under certain standards and deliver written statements to the customer with information specified in the rules.
 
Consequently, the penny stock rules may restrict the ability or willingness of broker-dealers to sell our Common Stock and may affect the ability of holders to sell their Common Stock in the secondary market and the price at which such holders can sell any such securities. These additional procedures could also limit our ability to raise additional capital in the future.
 
The foregoing list is not exhaustive. There can be no assurance that we have correctly identified and appropriately assessed all factors affecting our business or that the publicly available and other information with respect to these matters is complete and correct.

This Prospectus relates to shares of our Common Stock that may be offered and sold from time to time by the Selling Stockholders.  Any proceeds from CDS we receive for sale of the Series A Preferred Stock under the Purchase Agreement will be used for working capital and marketing expenses. In connection with entering into the Purchase Agreement, we received a cash payment of $1,500,000 and cancelled two outstanding notes issued to CDF totaling $500,000. We may in the future receive up to $1,000,000 if we sell any additional Series A Preferred Stock to CDS pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.  We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock being offered by the Selling Shareholders under this prospectus.
 
 
 
 
 
Each Selling Stockholder will determine at what price they may sell the offered shares, and such sales may be at fixed prices, at prevailing market prices at the time of sale, at prices related to the prevailing market price, at varying prices determined at the time of sale or at negotiated prices.
 
 
General

On August 8, 2008, we entered into the Purchase Agreement with CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC, a Florida limited liability company.  Under the Purchase Agreement, CDS purchased 2,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the right to purchase up to an additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Warrant”) , for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 (two million dollars).  The purchase of any part of the additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to the Warrant will have a consideration of $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock. The face amount of each share is $1,000. The Preferred Stock accrues ten percent dividend annually. The dividend is paid in additional Preferred Stock.
 
The Series A Preferred Stock matures on February 1, 2013 and at CDS’s election can be converted to Common Stock by dividing the aggregate preference liquidation value by the conversion price then in effect. During the 200 days immediately following the date on which the Certificate of Designation is effective with the Nevada Secretary of State the conversion price shall be $0.08 per share of common stock.  Thereafter, the conversion price means the greater of (i) 90% of the average of the prior ten days volume weighted average price of the Common Stock to the conversion date and (ii) $0.08 (eight cents) as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events.
 
The Company can at any time after July 1, 2010, redeem the Preferred Stock, by paying in cash 104% of the aggregate liquidation preference. The early redemption can only take place after a sixty day notice period, during which period CDS can convert the Preferred Stock for Common Stock using the then applicable conversion price.
 
The Company has the intention to fulfill the transaction as it has sufficient shares available to issue all the necessary shares for this transaction.

Effect of Performance of the Purchase Agreement on Our Stockholders

All 31,250,000 shares to be issued pursuant to the Purchase Agreement to CDS and the 11,184,016 shares of Common Stock CDF previously owned being registered in this offering are expected to be freely tradable.  The sale by CDS or CDF of a significant amount of shares registered in this offering at any given time could cause the market price of our Common Stock to decline and to be highly volatile.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Purchase Agreement, we entered into the Registration Agreement with CDS pursuant to which we were obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the shares of Common Stock underlying the Purchase Agreement and the shares CDF previously owned. In addition, we are obligated to use our best efforts to have the registration statement or amendment declared effective by the SEC at the earliest possible date and reasonable best efforts to keep the registration statement effective until the all such shares held by CDS are freely saleable pursuant to Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
Prior transactions with CDS or affiliates to CDS

We issued to CDF a convertible note for $250,000 on December 18, 2007, and an additional note on April 4, 2008 for $500,000. Both notes were converted into a total of 11,184,016 shares of the Company’s Common Stock on June 10, 2008. The conversion price was equal to the 75% of the average of volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock during the 5 trading days prior to conversion.

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 26, 2005 under the name “Vector Ventures Corp.” The Company changed its name to “Celsius Holdings, Inc.” on December 26, 2006.
 
On December 26, 2006, the Company completed a 4 for 1 forward split of its issued and outstanding share capital.
 
We are a holding company and carry on no operating business except through our direct wholly owned subsidiaries, Celsius, Inc. and Celsius Netshipments, Inc. Celsius, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on January 18, 2007, and merged with Elite on January 26, 2007, which was incorporated in Florida on April 22, 2004.  Celsius Netshipments, Inc was incorporated in Florida on March 29, 2007. We expect Celsius and Celsius Netshipments will generate substantially all of our operating revenue and expenses.
 
The Company has not been involved in any bankruptcy, receivership or similar proceeding nor has there been any material reclassification or merger, consolidation or purchase or sale of a significant amount of assets not in the ordinary course of business.
 
Historical Information
 
The Company was formed as an exploration stage company, meaning we were formed to engage in the search for mineral deposits (reserves) which are not in either the development or production stage.  We issued 2,000,000 units (8,000,000 post split units) to thirty-five (35) unrelated Stockholders for cash valued at $0.05 per unit pursuant to our SB-2 offering which closed on March 30, 2006. Each unit consisted of four shares and eight (8) share purchase warrants after taking into account the forward split of the Company completed on December 26, 2006. Each share purchase warrant is valid for a period of two years from the date of the Prospectus, expiring on January 20, 2008 and is exercisable at a price of $0.025 per share taking into account the forward split.  All warrants issued have since been exercised as of January 26, 2007.
 
 
 
Once we obtained funding under our March 30, 2006 SB-2 offering we began Phase I exploration on our one property in the Company's portfolio, the One Gun Project, consisting of 9 unit mineral claims having a total surface area of approximately 473 acres. On October 23, 2006 we received the results of the initial campaign and though these were generally poor, the Dollar Ext Zone was located and good geological information was gained.
 
Given there was a strong  possibility that the One Gun Project claims do not contain any reserves we began to look at other potential mineral properties to explore or other possible business opportunities.  The Company began seriously looking at other opportunities in the fall of 2006 which resulted in us arranging capital through a loan to make a bridge loan to Elite in November 2006.
 
On January 24, 2006, we entered into the Merger Agreement and plan of reorganization with Celsius, Inc, Elite and Stephen C. Haley, the “Indemnifying Officer” and “Securityholder Agent” of Elite pursuant to which Elite was merged into Celsius, Inc. and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on January 26, 2007.
 
As of closing the Merger Agreement, we have changed our business to the business of Elite and have ceased to be an exploration stage company.
 
Current Business of our Company
 
We operate in United States through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Celsius Inc., which acquired the operating business of Elite FX, Inc. (“Elite”) through a reverse merger on January 26, 2007, and Celsius Netshipments, Inc.  Celsius, Inc. is in the business of developing and marketing healthier functional beverages in the functional beverage category of the beverage industry.  Celsius was Elite’s first commercially available product. Celsius is a sparkling beverage that burns calories. Celsius is currently available in five flavors: cola, ginger ale, lemon/lime, orange and wild berry. Two new flavors will be introduced in September, 2008, green teas with the flavor of peach/mango and raspberry/acai.  Celsius Netshipments, Inc., incorporated in Florida on March 29, 2007, distributes the Celsius beverage via the internet. Our focus is on increasing sales of our existing products.
 
We are using Celsius as a means to attract and sign up direct-store-delivery (“DSD”) distributors across the US. DSD beverage distributors are wholesalers/distributors that purchase product, store it in their warehouse and then using their own trucks sell and deliver the product direct to retailers and their store shelves or cooler doors. During this process they make sure that the product is properly placed on the shelves, the invoicing and collection process is managed and local personnel are trained. Most retailers prefer this method to get beverages to their stores. One alternative to DSD is brokers, who supply many different types of products to the retailer chains or independent retailers. There are some retailers that prefer a different method called direct-to-retailer (“DTR”). In this scenario, the retailer is buying direct from the brand manufacturer and the product is delivered to the retailer’s warehousing system. The retailer is then responsible to properly stock the product and get it to the shelves. Our strategy is to cover the country with a network of DSD distributors. This allows us to sell to retailer chains that prefer this method and whose store locations span across distributor boundaries. We believe that a strong DSD network gives us a path to get to the smaller independent retailers who are too small to have their own warehousing and distribution systems and thus can only get their beverages from distributors. Our strategy of building a DSD network will not prohibit us from going DTR when a retailer requests or requires it.
 
We have currently signed up distributors in many of the larger markets in the US (Detroit, Boston, South East Florida, Seattle, Los Angeles, etc). We expect that it will take at least until 2009 before we have most of the United States covered.
 
Our experience has shown that it takes about two to three months to bring on a distributor. From initial interest to actual purchase order and kick off or the launch in that area, the steps include a physical meeting or two to explain the brand, target markets and our marketing plans. As we add sales representatives, we are able to do more of these activities at a time and speed up the process.

Industry Overview
 
The functional beverage market includes a wide variety of beverages with one or more added ingredients to satisfy a physical or functional need.   This category includes the five fastest-growing segments of the functional beverage market: herb-enhanced fruit drinks, ready-to-drink (RTD) teas, sports drinks, energy drinks, and single-serve (SS) fresh juice.
 
 
 
Our Products
 
In 2005, Elite introduced Celsius to the beverage marketplace and it is our first product. Multiple clinical studies have shown that a single 12 ounce serving raises metabolism over a 3 to 4 hour period. Quantitatively, the energy expenditure was on average over 100 calories from a single serving.
 
It is our belief that clinical studies proving product claims will become more important as more and more beverages are marketed with functional claims. Celsius was one of the first beverages to be launched along with a clinical study. Celsius is also one of very few that has clinical research on the actual product. Some beverage companies that do mention studies backing their claims are actually referencing independent studies conducted on one or more of the ingredients in the product. We believe that it is important and will become more important to have studies on the actual product.
 
Two different research organizations have statistically proven the Celsius calorie burning capability in four clinical studies.  This product line, which is referred to as our “core brand”, competes in the “functional beverage” segment of the beverage marketplace with distinctive flavors and packaging.  A functional beverage is a beverage containing one or more added ingredients intended to satisfy a physical or functional need, which often carries a unique and sophisticated imagery and a premium price tag. This segment includes herb-enhanced fruit drinks, ready-to-drink (RTD) teas, sports drinks, energy drinks, and single-serve (SS) fresh juice. By raising metabolism for the extended period of three to four hours, Celsius provides a negative calorie effect (burn more than you consume) as well as energy.
 
We currently offer five flavors: cola, ginger ale, lemon/lime, orange and wild berry. Two new flavors will be introduced in September, 2008, green teas with the flavor of peach/mango and raspberry/acai.  We have developed and own the formula for this product including the flavoring. The formulation and flavors for these products are produced under contract by concentrate suppliers.
 
Celsius is currently packaged in distinctive (12 fl oz) glass bottles with full-body shrink-wrapped labels that are in vivid colors in abstract patterns and cover the entire bottle to create a strong on-shelf impact.  In April 2007, we introduced Celsius in twelve ounce cans. The cans are sold in single units or in packages of four. The graphics and clinically tested product are important elements to Celsius and help justify the premium pricing of $1.99 per bottle/can.
 
Clinical Studies
 
We have funded four U.S. based clinical studies for Celsius. Each conducted by research organizations and each studied the total Celsius formula. The first study was conducted by the Ohio Research Group of Exercise Science and Sports Nutrition. The s second, third and fourth studies were conducted by the Applied Biochemistry & Molecular Physiology Laboratory of the University of Oklahoma. We entered into a contract with the University of Oklahoma to pay for part of the cost of the clinical study. In addition, we provided Celsius beverage for the studies and paid for the placebo beverage used in the studies. None of our officers or directors is in any way affiliated with either of the two research organizations.
 
The first study was conducted by the Ohio Research Group of Exercise Science and Sports Nutrition. The Ohio Research Group of Exercise Science & Sports Nutrition is a multidisciplinary clinical research team dedicated to exploring the relationship between exercise, nutrition, dietary supplements and health, www.ohioresearchgroup.com. This placebo-controlled, double-blind cross-over study compared the effects of Celsius and the placebo on metabolic rate. Twenty-two participants were randomly assigned to ingest a twelve ounce serving of Celsius and on a separate day a serving of twelve ounces of Diet Coke®. All subjects completed both trials using a randomized, counterbalanced design. Randomized means that subjects were selected for each group randomly to ensure that the different treatments were statistically equivalent. Counterbalancing means that individuals in one group drank the placebo on the first day and drank Celsius on the second day. The other group did the opposite. Counterbalancing is a design method that is used to control ‘order effects’. In other words, to make sure the order that subjects were served does not impact the results and analysis.
 
Metabolic rate (via indirect calorimetry, measurements taken from breaths into and out of calorimeter) and substrate oxidation (via respiratory exchange ratios) were measured at baseline (pre-ingestion) and for 10 minutes at the end of each hour for 3 hours post-ingestion. The results showed an average increase of metabolism of twelve percent over the three hour period, compared to statistically insignificant change for the control group. Metabolic rate, or metabolism, is the rate at which the body expends energy. This is also referred to as the “caloric burn rate”. Indirect calorimetry calculates heat that living organisms produce from their production of carbon dioxide. It is called “indirect” because the caloric burn rate is calculated from a measurement of oxygen uptake. Direct calorimetry would involve the subject being placed inside the calorimeter for the measurement to determine the heat being produced. Respiratory Exchange Ratio is the ratio oxygen taken in a breath compared to the carbon dioxide breathed out in one breath or exchange. Measuring this ratio can be used for estimating which substrate (fuel such as carbohydrate or fat) is being metabolized or ‘oxidized’ to supply the body with energy.
 
The second study was conducted by the Applied Biochemistry & Molecular Physiology Laboratory of University of Oklahoma. This blinded, placebo-controlled study was conducted on a total of sixty men and women of normal weight.
 
 
 
 
An equal number of participants were separated into two groups to compare one serving (12oz) of Celsius to a placebo of the same amount. According to the study, those subjects consuming Celsius burned significantly more calories versus those consuming the placebo, over a three hour period. The study confirmed that over the three hour period, subjects consuming a single serving of Celsius burned sixty-five percent more calories than those consuming the placebo beverage and burned an average of more than one hundred calories compared to placebo. These results were statistically significant.
 
The third study, also conducted by the Applied Biochemistry & Molecular Physiology Laboratory of University of Oklahoma, extended our second study with the same group of sixty individuals and protocol for 28 days and showed the same statistical significance of increased calorie burn (minimal attenuation). While the University of Oklahoma study did extend for 28 days, more testing would be needed for long term analysis of the Celsius calorie burning effects. Also, these studies were on relatively small numbers of subjects, they have statistically significant results. Additional studies on a larger number and wider range of body compositions can be considered to further the analysis.
 
Our fourth study, also conducted by the Applied Biochemistry & Molecular Physiology Laboratory of University of Oklahoma, combined Celsius with exercise. This 10-week placebo-controlled, randomized and blinded study was conducted on a total of 37 subjects. Participants were randomly assigned into one of two groups: Group 1 consumed one serving of Celsius per day, and Group 2 consumed one serving of an identically flavored and labeled placebo beverage. Both groups participated in 10 weeks of combined aerobic and weight training, following the American College of Sports Medicine guidelines of training for previously sedentary adults. The results showed that consuming a single serving of Celsius prior to exercising may enhance the positive adaptations of exercise on body composition, cardio-respiratory fitness and endurance performance. The researchers of the study presented its preliminary results at the annual meeting of the International Society of Sports Nutrition in June 2008. According to the presentation and abstract, subjects consuming a single serving of Celsius lost significantly more fat mass and gained significantly more muscle mass than those subjects consuming the placebo - a 93.8% greater loss in fat and 50% greater gain in muscle mass, respectively. The study also confirmed that subjects consuming Celsius significantly improved measures of cardio-respiratory fitness and the ability to delay the onset of fatigue when exercising to exhaustion.
 
Manufacture and Supply of Our Products
 
Our products are produced by beverage co-packers. A co-packer is a manufacturing plant that provides the service of filling bottles or cans for the brand owner. We believe the benefit of using co-packer is we do not have to invest in the production facility and can focus our resources on brand development, sales and marketing. It also allows us produce in multiple locations strategically placed throughout the country. Currently our products are produced in Mooresville, North Carolina, and Monroe, Wisconsin. We usually produce about 25,000 cases (24 units per case) of Celsius in a production run. We supply all the ingredients and packaging materials. The co-pack facility assembles our products and charges us a fee, by the case. We follow a “fill as needed” manufacturing model to the best of our ability and we have no significant backlog of orders. The shelf life of the Celsius is specified as 14 months for both cans and bottles.
 
Substantially all of the raw materials used in the preparation, bottling and packaging of our products are purchased by us or by our contract packers in accordance with our specifications. Generally, we obtain the ingredients used in our products from domestic suppliers and each ingredient has several reliable suppliers. The ingredients in the Celsius Beverage include Green Tea (EGCG), Ginger (from the root), Caffeine, B-Vitamins, Vitamin C, Taurine, Guarana, Chromium, Calcium, Glucuronolactone and Sucralose, and Celsius is packaged using a supplements facts panel. We have no major supply contracts with any of our suppliers. As a general policy, we pick ingredients in the development of our products that have multiple suppliers and are common ingredients. This provides a level of protection against a major supply constriction or calamity.
 
We believe that if we grow, we will be able to keep up with increased production demands. We believe that our current co-packing arrangement has the capacity to handle increased business we may face in the next twelve (12) months. To the extent that any significant increase in business requires us to supplement or substitute our current co-packer, we believe that there are readily available alternatives, so that there would not be a significant delay or interruption in fulfilling orders and delivery of our products. In addition, we do not believe that growth will result in any significant difficulty or delay in obtaining raw materials, ingredients or finished product.
 
 
 
Our Primary Markets
 
We target a niche in the soft drink industry known as functional beverages. The soft drink industry generally characterizes beverages as being made with nutritional and mineral additives, with upscale packaging, and often creating and utilizing new and unique flavors and flavor combinations.
 
Celsius is ultimately sold across many retail segments or channels. We group the grocery, convenience, drug, mass and club channel into one group as major channels. We classify health clubs, spas, gyms etc as our Health and Fitness channel. We are expanding our distribution into each channel. We reach these channels through sales to DSD distributors or brokers, who in turn sell to different channels or through sales to DTR customers. We cannot accurately estimate how much is sold in each channel, because the sales information comes through our DSD distributors’ sales information, and each one may or may not utilize the same sales channel classification as we do.
 
Distribution, Sales and Marketing
 
Our predecessor Elite initiated a grassroots marketing strategy to launch Celsius in 2005.  This marketing strategy leveraged the significant media interest in the results of the clinical trial which confirmed the product’s functional benefit.  Celsius was subsequently unveiled at the International Society for Sports Nutrition (ISSN) annual scientific symposium in June of 2005.  Media interest in the category-creating positioning and clinical proof generated national coverage. Over 200 TV news stations aired over 800 segments highlighting Celsius, as well as articles in a multitude of news papers and magazines and their websites.
 
Once initial distribution was achieved in the southeastern United States, a top-tier branding agency was retained to develop a comprehensive integrated marketing communications program for use in regional and national roll-out.  These materials included Point of Sale graphics, billboards, print advertising layouts, coupon graphics, radio scripts and other creative components. Over time the point of sale materials have evolved and changed with input from employees and outside consultants. All of these are not used in every market but provide a good foundation of promotional materials as we do launch in a specific area or with a specific distributor.
 
Celsius and the Beverage Supply Chain
 
Consumers buy their beverages in various ways. Most beverages are purchased at retailers which can be segmented by type of store such as grocery, drug, convenience/gas, mass and club. Some health focused beverages can be purchased in gyms, health clubs and spas. Some beverages are purchased from vending machines and some consumers order beverages over the internet to be delivered to their homes or offices.
 
Celsius is a brand that can sell through all of these channels and we are doing so now in the US. We intend to grow our volumes through each channel through various means. We classify the channels into four sub-groups, Major Channel (grocery, drub, convenience, club and mass), Health & Fitness (gyms, health clubs, etc), Vending and Internet Sales. If we grow our distribution network, we believe the largest percentage of sales will come from the major channels.
 
In the future we will sell Celsius internationally and will group those sales in two large groups, export (an importer buys the product and resells it) and license (a bottler will license the rights to produce locally and then they will sell and distribute in their respective countries.) In the immediate future we are focused on the US market.
 
Selling to and Growing the DSD Distribution Network
 
We are currently marketing to distributors using a number of marketing strategies, including direct solicitation, telemarketing, trade advertising and trade show exhibition. These distributors include established distributors of other beverages such as beer, energy drinks, soft drinks, water and ready to drink teas. Our distributors sell our products directly to retail chains, convenience stores, drugstores and mainstream supermarkets for sale to the public. We maintain direct contact with the distributors through our in-house sales managers. In limited markets, where the use of our direct sales managers is not cost-effective, we utilize food brokers and outside representatives.  A DSD distributor will have a defined territory (usually determined by a set of counties).  In many cases we will work with the distributor under a contractual arrangement. For the right to sell Celsius in their territory, they agree to certain duties of which one is a quarterly or yearly minimum of sales.
 
Distributors sell to the stores in their area. In many cases, the distributor services a chain of retail stores that have a corporate office or buying office that is outside their territory. We make the calls on those stores either on our own or through the neighboring distributor that does have the buying office in their territory. See Selling to Retail Stores for more detail.
 
Selling to Retail Stores
 
We are currently marketing to retail stores by utilizing trade shows, trade advertising, telemarketing, direct mail pieces and direct contact with retailers we believe would be interested our products. Our regional sales managers, working with our National Accounts personnel, will make sales calls to and meet with the buyers of these larger chains.
 
 
 
Our strategy is for the chain to be serviced by our DSD distributors or by brokers. Examples of major retail chains that carry Celsius and get their product through our DSD distributors include: Hannafords (Northeast), Walgreens (Georgia, Michigan and Ohio), Meijers (Michigan), QFC (Washington) and through brokers include Walgreens (Florida). In some cases, the retailers are so large that they have established their own distribution and warehousing systems and in these cases we will sell DTR. Examples of these are Vitamin Shoppes (across United States), Krogers, and Raley’s (California).
 
Vending
 
We believe that vending is a way to not only get Celsius into the hands of more consumers, in addition, when the machines are labeled or branded with our graphics; they become great promotional signage to help build awareness. The vending operators will buy Celsius either from our DSD distributors or vending distributors strategically located across the US.
 
Sales Direct to Consumers (Internet Sales)
 
Consumers are able to purchase Celsius directly from our website. We have customers that choose this method of purchase and delivery in all 48 contiguous states and a few sales in Hawaii and Alaska. We are not focused on building this channel but it helps us build brand awareness in areas that do not have strong retailer or distributor presence yet.
 
Marketing to Consumers
 
Advertising. We intend to utilize several marketing strategies to market directly to consumers. Advertising in targeted consumer magazines such aimed at consumers interested in weight loss, diet and fitness, in-store discounts on the products, in-store product demonstration, street corner sampling, coupon advertising, consumer trade shows, event sponsoring and our website http://www.celsius.com are all among consumer-direct marketing devices we intend to utilize in the future.
 
In-Store Displays. As part of our marketing efforts, we intend to offer in-store displays in key markets. We also believe that our unique packaging is an important part of making successful products.
 
Seasonality of Sales
 
Sales of our beverages are seasonal, with the highest sales volumes generally occurring in the second and third fiscal quarters, which correspond to the warmer months of the year in our major markets.
 
Competition
 
Our products compete broadly with all beverages available to consumers. The beverage market is highly competitive, and includes international, national, regional and local producers and distributors, many of whom have greater financial, management and other resources than us.
 
Our direct competitors in the functional beverage market include but are not limited to The Coca-Cola Company, Cadbury Schweppes, PepsiCo, Inc., Nestlé, Waters North America, Inc., Hansen Natural Corp., Red Bull and Glaceau.
 
While we believe that we offer a unique product which will be able to compete favorably in this marketplace, the expansion of competitors in the functional beverage market, along with the expansion of our competitor’s products, many of whom have substantially greater marketing, cash, distribution, technical and other resources than we do, may impact our products ultimate sales to distributors and consumers.
 
Proprietary Rights
 
In connection with our acquisition of the business of Elite, we, through our wholly owned subsidiary Celsius, Inc., have acquired the Celsius® trademark, which is registered in the United States.
 
We will continue to take appropriate measures, such as entering into confidentiality agreements with our contract packers and exclusivity agreements with our flavor houses, to maintain the secrecy and proprietary nature of our flavor concentrates. We consider our trademarks and flavor concentrate trade secrets to be of considerable value and importance to our business. No successful challenges to our registered trademarks have arisen and we have no reason to believe that any such challenges will arise in the future.
 
Research and Development
 
Throughout 2008, the Company will focus its full efforts on Celsius, limiting new product development to flavor line extensions of this high-potential brand.  Two new flavors, peach/mango and raspberry/acai, were recently developed and is being launched September 2008.
 
Beyond 2008, we intend to target development and launch one high-potential new product per year.  We followed a detailed process to identify, qualify and develop Celsius. As our distribution network increases, we are beginning the process for the next brand that we plan to launch into the distribution network. Last year, we hired a R&D professional to work full time on this process, however, due to budget restrictions, we had to utilize her expertise in other areas, such as marketing and quality control.
 
 
 
The objective is to allow the majority of the Company to stay focused on the current product, Celsius, and the distribution expansion while insuring that there will be additional follow on brands.
 
Government Regulation
 
The production, distribution and sale of our products in the United States is subject to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994, the Occupational Safety and Health Act, various environmental statutes and various other federal, state and local statutes and regulations applicable to the production, transportation, sale, safety, advertising, labeling and ingredients of such products. California law requires that a specific warning appear on any product that contains a component listed by California as having been found to cause cancer or birth defects. The law exposes all food and beverage producers to the possibility of having to provide warnings on their products because the law recognizes no generally applicable quantitative thresholds below which a warning is not required. Consequently, even trace amounts of listed components can expose affected products to the prospect of warning labels. Products containing listed substances that occur naturally in the product or that are contributed to the product solely by a municipal water supply are generally exempt from the warning requirement. While none of our products are required to display warnings under this law, we cannot predict whether an important component of any of our products might be added to the California list in the future. We also are unable to predict whether or to what extent a warning under this law would have an impact on costs or sales of our products.
 
Measures have been enacted in various localities and states that require that a deposit be charged for certain non-refillable beverage containers. The precise requirements imposed by these measures vary. Other deposit, recycling or product stewardship proposals have been introduced in certain states and localities and in Congress, and we anticipate that similar legislation or regulations may be proposed in the future at the local, state and federal levels, both in the United States and elsewhere.
 
Our facilities in the United States are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Compliance with these provisions has not had, and we do not expect such compliance to have, any material adverse effect upon our capital expenditures, net income or competitive position.
 
Environmental Matters
 
Based on our current operations, environmental protection requirements do not have a significant financial and operational effect on the capital expenditures, earnings and competitive position of our company in the current financial year and are not expected to have a significant effect in the reasonably foreseeable future.
 
Employees
 
As of July 31, 2008, we employed a total of twenty employees on a full-time basis. Of our twenty employees, we employ four in administrative capacities and sixteen persons in sales and marketing capacities. We have not experienced any work stoppages. We have not entered into any collective bargaining agreements. We consider our relations with employees to be good. We also contract with a number of persons independently, who at time to time will work for us at events and samplings.
 
 
 Our executive offices are located at 140 NE 4th Avenue, Suite C and A, Delray Beach, FL 33483. We are currently being provided with space at this location by an unrelated third party, pursuant to a twelve month lease for $6,717 per month.
 
The Company has no warehouses or other facilities. We produce our products through a packing, or co-pack, facility in Monroe, Wisconsin for our bottles and in Mooresville, North Carolina for our cans. We have approved three other facilities for co-packing of bottles in New York, Tennessee and Oregon and Tennessee for cans, but are not currently producing product at these facilities.
 
 
We know of no material, active or pending legal proceedings against our Company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial stockholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
 
On January 24, 2007, the Company entered into a merger agreement and plan of reorganization with Celsius, Inc., Elite and Stephen C. Haley, the “Indemnifying Officer” and “Securityholder Agent” of Elite pursuant to which Elite was merged into Celsius, Inc. and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on January 26, 2007 (the “Merger”).
 
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued:
 
·  
70,912,246 shares of its Common Stock to the stockholders of Elite as full consideration for the shares of Elite;
 
·  
1,391,500 shares of its Common Stock and a promissory note in the amount of $250,000.00 to Specialty Nutrition Group, Inc. (“SNG”) as consideration for termination of a consulting agreement and assignment of certain trademark rights to the name “Celsius”. The note is non-interest bearing and requires the Company to pay SNG $15,000 a month for eight (8) months starting March 30, 2007 and a lump sum payment of $130,000 on November 30, 2007.
 
These shares of our Common Stock and the note qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offerings were not “public offerings” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, and manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares or notes to a high number of investors. In addition, these stockholders and the note holder had and agreed to the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2). Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for these transactions.

The Company believes that all of the foregoing sales qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance of the notes and shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offerings were not “public offerings” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, and manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares or notes to a high number of investors. In addition, these stockholders and the note holder had and agreed to the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2). Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Section S promulgated under the Securities Act for these transactions.
 
We did not employ an underwriter in connection with the issuance of the securities described above. We believe that the issuance of the foregoing securities was exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
 
 
General
 
The following is a discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of Celsius Holdings, Inc. comparing the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 and the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006. We operate in the United States through our wholly-owned subsidiaries Celsius Netshipments, Inc. and Celsius Inc. (“Sub”), which acquired the operating business of Elite FX, Inc. (“Elite”) through a reverse merger on January 26, 2007. You should consider the foregoing when reviewing Celsius Holdings, Inc.’s consolidated financial statements attached to this Registration Statement on Form S-1 and this discussion. You should read this section together with the Company’s consolidated financial statements including the notes to those financial statements for the years mentioned above. Dollar amounts of $1.0 million or more are rounded to the nearest one tenth of a million; all other dollar amounts are rounded to the nearest one thousand and all percentages are stated to the nearest one tenth of one percent.
 
Overview
 
We operate in United States through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Celsius Inc., which acquired the operating business of Elite FX, Inc. (“Elite”) through a reverse merger on January 26, 2007, and Celsius Netshipments, Inc.  Celsius, Inc. is in the business of developing and marketing healthier functional beverages in the functional beverage category of the beverage industry.  Celsius was Elite’s first commercially available product. Celsius is a sparkling beverage that burns calories. Celsius is currently available in five flavors: cola, ginger ale, lemon/lime, orange and wild berry. Two new flavors will be introduced in September, 2008, green teas with the flavor of peach/mango and raspberry/acai. Celsius Netshipments, Inc., incorporated in Florida on March 29, 2007, distributes the Celsius beverage via the internet. Our focus is on increasing sales of our existing products.
 
We are using Celsius as a means to attract and sign up direct-store-delivery (“DSD”) distributors across the US. DSD beverage distributors are wholesalers/distributors that purchase product, store it in their warehouse and then using their own trucks sell and deliver the product direct to retailers and their store shelves or cooler doors. During this process they make sure that the product is properly placed on the shelves, the invoicing and collection process is managed and local personnel are trained. Most retailers prefer this method to get beverages to their stores. One alternative to DSD is brokers, who supply many different types of products to the retailer chains or independent retailers. There are some retailers that prefer a different method called direct-to-retailer (“DTR”). In this scenario, the retailer is buying direct from the brand manufacturer and the product is delivered to the retailer’s warehousing system. The retailer is then responsible to properly stock the product and get it to the shelves. Our strategy is to cover the country with a network of DSD distributors. This allows us to sell to retailer chains that prefer this method and whose store locations span across distributor boundaries. We believe that a strong DSD network gives us a path to get to the smaller independent retailers who are too small to have their own warehousing and distribution systems and thus can only get their beverages from distributors. Our strategy of building a DSD network will not prohibit us from going DTR when a retailer requests or requires it.
 
We have currently signed up distributors in many of the larger markets in the US (Detroit, Boston, South East Florida, Seattle, Los Angeles, etc). We expect that it will take at least until 2009 before we have most of the United States covered.
 
Our experience has shown that it takes about two to three months to bring on a distributor. From initial interest to actual purchase order and kick off or the launch in that area, the steps include a physical meeting or two to explain the brand, target markets and our marketing plans. As we add sales representatives, we are able to do more of these activities at a time and speed up the process.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2007
 
Revenue
 
Sales for the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were $1.0 million and $376,000, respectively. The increase of 166.2 percent was mainly due to one large international order and to lesser extent to increased sales both to new distributors and for re-orders from established distributors.
 
Gross profit
 
Gross Profit was 36.9 percent in the second quarter 2008 as compared to 19.7 percent for the same period in 2007. The increase in gross profit was mainly due to a product mix change from bottles to a majority of cans being shipped, and to improved production efficiencies for our cans, offset to a less extent by lower margin on our export shipments and higher cost for our bottles.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Sales and marketing expenses has increased substantially from one year to the next, $705,000 for the second quarter of 2008 as compared to $373,000 for the same three month period in 2007, or an increase of $332,000. This was mainly due to increased employee cost by $90,000, local advertising and sampling by $182,000, and sales and marketing travel expense by $46,000, offset to a lesser extent by reduced other marketing expense of $24,000. The general and administrative expenses increased from $378,000 for the second quarter of 2007 to $423,000 for the same period in 2008, an increase of $45,000. This was mainly due to increased cost for issuance of options to employees and consultants of $132,000, increased cost of personnel of $32,000, and increased research and development expense of $27,000, offset to a lesser extent by reduction of legal and professional fees of $70,000, reduced investor relations expense of $96,000.
 
Other expense
 
The net interest expense increased from $50,000 for the second quarter in 2007 to $157,000, during the second quarter in 2008, or an increase of $107,000. This increase was mainly due to amortization of debt discount of $133,000, incurred when issuing convertible notes, offset to a lesser extent by an increase in interest income of $25,000.
 
 
 
 
Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2008 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2007
 
Revenue
 
Sales for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 were $1.5 million and $617,000, respectively. The increase of 148.5 percent was due to one large international order and to increased sales both to new distributors and re-orders from established distributors, mainly sales directly or indirectly to Walgreens of $289,000, which is a new customer this year.
 
Gross profit
 
Gross profit was 39.3 percent in six months ended June 30, 2008 as compared to 22.7 percent for the same period in 2007. The increase in gross profit was mainly due to a product mix change from bottles to a majority of cans being shipped, and to improved production efficiencies on our cans, offset to a lesser extent by lower margins on our export sales and increased cost for our bottles.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Sales and marketing expenses have increased substantially from one year to the next, $1.6 million for the first half of 2008 as compared to $718,000 for the same six month period in 2007, or an increase of $836,000. Sales and marketing employee cost increased by $281,000, local advertising and sampling by $303,000, sales and marketing travel expense by $109,000, and national advertising by $120,000. The general and administrative expenses increased from $687,000 for the first half of 2007 to $888,000 for the same period in 2008, an increase of $201,000. This increase was mainly due to increased cost for issuance of options to employees and consultants of $104,000, expense for issuance of shares to a distributor of $120,000, increased cost of personnel of $55,000, and increased research and development expense of $137,000, offset to a lesser extent by reduction of legal and professional fees of $59,000, reduced investor relations expense of $101,000, and reduced insurance expense of $63,000.
 
We recognized an expense for termination of a consulting agreement in January of 2007 of $500,000. Coinciding with the reverse merger, the Company issued 1.4 million shares, valued at $250,000 and an interest-free note for $250,000 as consideration for termination of a consulting agreement and assignment of the Celsius trademarks.
 
Other expense
 
The net interest expense increased from $81,000 for the first 6 months of 2007 to $260,000, during the same period in 2008, or an increase of $179,000. This increase was mainly due to amortization of debt discount of $188,000, incurred when issuing convertible notes, offset to a lesser extent by an increase in interest income of $51,000.
 
Results of Operations for the Fiscal Year 2007 Compared to the Fiscal Year 2006
 
Revenue
 
Revenue increased 26.8 % for the year 2007 to $1.6 million, as compared to $1.3 million in 2006. The increase of $348,000 was mainly due to increase of our sales of Celsius in sleek cans, which we started to ship in May of 2007. We have seen a trend of more sales of cans compared to bottles. If we look at our sales by quarter, we can see a downward trend during 2006 and an upward trend during 2007. For instance, our revenue during the fourth quarter of 2007 was 95% higher than the same quarter in 2006.
 
Gross Profit
 
Cost of sales was 62.9% during the year 2007 as compared to 65.5% in 2006. The decrease in cost of sales was mainly due improved margins on cans compared to bottles, which was partially offset by some returns from customers in the middle of the year 2007, when we were shifting some of our distributors to new distributors that we believe will better serve us in the future.
 
Operating Expenses
 
Sales and marketing expenses increased to $1.5 million in 2007 as compared to $1.0 million in 2006, an increase of $547,000. This increase was mainly due to increased cost for personnel, $341,000; increased cost of sampling events, $96,000 and other various marketing expenses, partially offset by reduced royalty fees of $66,000 and reduced print and radio media advertising. We have shifted our focus on sales and marketing expenditure. We spend more on direct distributor support and less on public relations expense. General and administrative expenses increased to $2.1 million in 2007 as compared to $791,000 in 2006, an increase of $1.3 million. The increase was mainly due to increased cost for personnel, $655,000, for professional fees and investor relations expenses, $239,000 and for product development cost, $203,000, as well as increased insurance expense, office expense, etc.
 
 
 
 
We recognized an expense for termination of a consulting agreement in the first quarter of 2007 of $500,000. Coinciding with the Merger, the Company issued 1.4 million shares of Common Stock, valued at $250,000, and an interest-free note for $250,000, as consideration for termination of a consulting agreement.
 
Other Expense
 
Other expense consists of interest on outstanding loans of $181,000 in 2007 as compared to $112,000 in 2006. The increase of $70,000 was mainly due to increased loans. As part of this expense, we recorded amortization of debt discounts on two convertible notes for a total of $8,000. The remaining un-amortized debt discount was $236,000 as of December 31, 2007.
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We have yet to establish any history of profitable operations. We have incurred annual operating losses of $3.7 million, $1.5 million and $853,000, respectively, during the past three years of operation, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and a loss during the first six months of 2008 of $2.1 million. As a result, at June 30, 2008, we had an accumulated deficit of $8.2 million. At June 30, 2008, we had a working capital deficit of $1.5 million. The independent auditor’s report for the year ended December 31, 2007, includes an explanatory paragraph to their audit opinion stating that our recurring losses from operations and working capital deficiency raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We have an operating cash flow deficit of $2.6 million, $1.2 million and $813,000, for last three years, respectively. Our revenue has not been sufficient to sustain our operations. We expect that our revenue will not be sufficient to sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. Our profitability will require the successful commercialization of our current product Celsius® and any future products we develop. No assurances can be given when this will occur or that we will ever be profitable.
 
We fund part of our working capital from two lines of credit. One line of credit with a factoring company was renewed in January 2008 and is for $500,000. The line of credit lets us borrow 80% of eligible receivables. The factoring flat fee is 1.5% of the invoice amount; in addition we incur an interest charge of prime rate plus three percent on the average outstanding balance. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2008 was $114,000.
 
We renewed a second line of credit on February 28, 2008 for inventory financing. The line of credit is also for $500,000 and lets us borrow up to 50% of our cost of eligible finished goods. The line of credit carries an interest charge of 1.5% per month of the outstanding balance and a monitoring fee of 0.5% of the previous month’s average outstanding balance. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2008 was $265,000.
 
In April 2007, the Company received $250,000 in bridge financing from Brennecke Partners LLC. The note was restructured in January 2008. The remaining balance of the original note was exchanged for one million shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $121,555 and a new note for $105,000. The new note had 7 monthly principal payments of $15,000 starting March 1, 2008. The note does not carry interest. The outstanding balance on the note as of June 30, 2008 was $45,000.
 
We borrowed in 2004 and 2005 a total of $500,000 from one of our stockholders with interest of a rate variable with the prime rate. There is no repayment date or any plan in place to repay the loan. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2008 was $669,000.
 
We borrowed $50,000 from the CEO of the Company in February 2006. The loan carries interest of seven percent. There is no fixed repayment date; the plan is to pay off the loan as funds are available. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2008 was $33,000. As of June 30, 2008, we also owe the CEO $171,000 for accrued salaries from 2006 and 2007.
 
We terminated a consulting agreement with a company controlled by one of our former directors. As partial consideration we issued a note payable for $250,000. The outstanding balance as of June 30, 2008 was $125,000.
 
We issued in December 2007 a convertible note for $1.5 million and received $250,000 in cash and a note receivable for $1.3 million; see further discussion below on our purchase agreement with Golden Gate Investors.
 
We issued in December 2007, a convertible note to CD Financial LLC (“CDF”) for $250,000. The note carries 8 percent interest and was due on April 16, 2008. The note was refinanced in April at the time CDF lent us additional $500,000. The combined note was converted in June 2008 to 11.2 million shares of our Common Stock.
 
We issued in June and July, 2008, two separate convertible notes to CDF, each for $250,000. The notes carry 8 percent interest. In August of 2008, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC, an affiliate of CDF, pursuant to which we received $1.5 million in cash, cancelled the two convertible notes issued to CD Financial, LLC and issued 2,000 Series A Preferred Shares, and the right to purchase additional 1,000 Series A Preferred Shares.
 
We received during 2007 a total of $400,000 as deposits against future orders from an international customer. We received a purchase order from the customer, and shipped products in April and June offsetting the deposit. There is no outstanding balance as of June 30, 2008.
 
 
 
We entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement with Fusion Capital in June 2007. During 2007, we received $1.4 million in proceeds from sales of shares to Fusion Capital. We can sell shares for a consideration of up to $14.6 million to Fusion Capital until October 2009, when and if the selling price of the shares to Fusion Capital exceeds $0.45.
 
We will require additional financing to sustain our operations. Management estimates that we need to raise an additional $2.0 to $3.0 million in order to implement our revised business plan over the next 12 months. We are able to implement an alternative business plan with less financing, which is more in line to funds received and financing that we have already negotiated to receive. We do not currently have sufficient financial resources to fund our operations or those of our subsidiaries. Therefore, we need additional funds to continue these operations. No assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise sufficient financing.
 
The following table summarizes contractual obligations and borrowings as of December 31, 2007, and the timing and effect that such commitments are expected to have on our liquidity and capital requirements in future periods (in thousands). We expect to fund these commitments primarily with raise of debt or equity capital.

Our securities purchase agreement with CDS Ventures of South Florida, LLC
 
On August 8, 2008, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with CDS, a Florida limited liability company.  Under the Purchase Agreement, CDS purchased 2,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock , evidenced by a certificate of designation filed with the Nevada Secretary of State (the “Certificate of Designation”) and the right to purchase up to an additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock, for an aggregate purchase price of $2,000,000 consisting of a cash payment of $1.5 million and the cancellation of two notes in aggregate amount of $500,000 issued to CD Financial, LLC, an affiliate of CDS (the “Purchase Price”).  The purchase of any part of the additional 1,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Additional Shares”) will have a consideration of $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock.  CDS has the right to convert the Series A Preferred Stock to Common Stock at any time. The conversion price is $0.08 (eight cents) per share of common stock for a period of 200 days from the date on which the Certificate of Designation is effective with the Nevada Secretary of State.  Thereafter, the conversion price shall be the greater of (i) 90% of the Market Price on the conversion date and (ii) $0.08 (eight cents) as appropriately adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and similar events. Market price means the average of the ten daily volume weighted average prices for the 10 trading days immediately preceding the applicable date of determination.
 
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement under which the Company agreed to file a registration statement for the common stock issuable upon conversion of Series A Preferred Shares.
 
The Series A Preferred Stock accrues dividends on the stated share value at an annual rate of ten percent.  Dividends on the Series A Preferred Stock are payable annually on the last business day of each fiscal year of the Company in additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock.
 
Our purchase agreement with Golden Gate Investors, Inc.
 
On December 19, 2007, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with Golden Gate Investors, Inc (“GGI”). The agreement includes four tranches of $1,500,000 each.  Each tranche consists of a 7.75% convertible debenture (the “Debenture”) issued by the Company, in exchange for $250,000 in cash and a promissory note for $1,250,000 issued by GGI which matures on February 1, 2012. The promissory note contains a prepayment provision which requires GGI to make prepayments of interest and principal of $250,000 monthly upon satisfaction of certain conditions. One of the conditions to prepayment is that Company’s shares issued pursuant to the conversion rights under Debenture must be freely tradable under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933. The Debenture can be converted at any time with a conversion price as the lower of (i) $1.00, or (ii) 80% of the average of the three lowest daily volume weighted average price during the 20 trading days prior to GGI’s election to convert. The Company is not required to issue the shares unless a corresponding payment has been made on the promissory note.
 
 
 
GGI made its first monthly payment of $250,000 in the end of June 2008 and made its monthly payment in July and August, plus all accrued interest.  GGI converted $40,000 of its convertible debenture in June 2008 to 604,000 shares. Subsequent to the quarter-end, GGI has converted additionally $305,000 of its convertible debenture to approximately 4.4 million shares.
 
Tranches 2, 3 and 4 can be consummated at the election of GGI at any time beginning upon the execution of the Debenture, or successive debenture, until the balance due under the Debenture, or each successive debenture, decreases below $250,000. Tranches 2, 3 and 4 of the agreement with Golden Gate Investors, Inc. may be rescinded and not effectuated by either party, subject to payment of a penalty.
 
Related Party Transactions
 
We received advances from one of our stockholders at various instances during 2004 and 2005, $76,000 and $424,000, respectively. The total amount outstanding, including accrued interest, as of June 30, 2008 was $669,000.

Going Concern
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The Company is diligently trying to raise financing; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its endeavors.
 
 
On August 4, 2006, we received the resignation of our principal independent accountant, Armando C. Ibarra, C.P.A.
 
Armando C. Ibarra, C.P.A. had served as our principal independent accountant from inception (April 26, 2005) and the fiscal year September 2005, inclusive through August 4, 2006.
 
The principal independent accountant’s report issued by Armando C. Ibarra, C.P.A. for the year ended September 30, 2005 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and it was not modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles, other than their opinion, based on our lack of operations and our net losses, there was substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.  The financial statements did not include any adjustments that might have resulted from the outcome of that uncertainty.
 
We are able to report that during the year ended September 30, 2005 through August 4, 2006 there were no disagreements with Armando C. Ibarra, C.P.A., our former principal independent accountant, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement  disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Armando C. Ibarra, C.P.A.’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement(s) in connection with its reports on our consolidated financial statements for such periods. We have requested that Armando C. Ibarra, C.P.A. furnish us with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not it disagrees with the above statements.  A copy of such letter is filed herewith as Exhibit 16.1.

During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2005 and 2006 and the subsequent interim period through March 8, 2007, there were no disagreements with Park on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Park, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its reports on the financial statements for such years.

FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Statutes and our articles of incorporation. We have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 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 whether such indemnification is against public policy to a court of appropriate jurisdiction. We will then be governed by the court's decision.
 
 
On close of the Merger Agreement, the Sub assumed employment agreements with the Messrs. Stephen C. Haley, Jan Norelid, Richard McGee and Ms. Janice Haley, previously executed by Elite.  The Company issued 50,000 shares of Elite to Jan Norelid in compensation on January 19, 2007. The Company recorded a charge of $25,000.
 
On September 30, 2006, we issued 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock to our previous president, Mr. Kostovski at a value of $0.0025 per share in exchange for organizational services and expenses, proprietary rights, business plans, and cash in for total aggregate consideration of $10,000. On April 30, 2006, a total of 3,200,000 shares of Common Stock were issued in exchange for mining claims valued in the amount of $8,000 U.S., or $.0025 per share to Mr. Kostovski. These issuances were made to Mr. Kostovski, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and were restricted shares as defined in the Act.  On January 26, the 7.2 million shares issued to Mr. Kostovski were cancelled as part of the Merger Agreement.
 
On January 26, 2007, the Company retired the loan provided by Mr. Kostovski to the Company which amounted to an aggregate total of $1,800 ($500 cash loan and another $1,300 owed to him for use of his office space). This amount was retired as part of the requirement of the Merger Agreement.  This loan was unsecured, due on demand and did not bear interest.
 
The Company generated revenue from Specialty Beverage Distributors, Inc. (“SBD”) of $128 and $296,640 during the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. SBD is 50% owned by Mr. Haley and 50% owned by Lucille Santini, a stockholder of the Company. During 2006, the Company delivered and invoiced SBD $69,832 for products, no revenue was recorded as the collectibility was not reasonably assured. At the end of 2005, Elite recorded $60,640 in allowance for bad debt for outstanding receivable from SBD. SBD ceased operations in 2006.
 
Elite operated during 2005 and most of 2006 from temporary offices in the home of Mr. Haley, who has also guaranteed certain of the Elite’s liabilities.
 
We accrued the CEO’s salary from March 2006 through May 30, 2007.  The total accrued salary as of June 30, 2008 was $171,000. Since June 1, 2007 we have paid his salary in full. The CEO also lent the Company $50,000 in February 2006. In April 2008, $25,000 was repaid and the outstanding amount as of June 30, 2008 was $33,000. In August 2008 we restructured the debt and combined it into one note with three percent interest annually. Twenty-nine monthly payments of $5,000 in principal and interest are due from August 31, 2008, onwards, and a final payment on January 31, 2011 of $64,042.
 
The CEO has guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the factoring agreement with Bibby Financial Services, Inc. (“Bibby”). The outstanding balance to Bibby as of June 30, 2008 was $114,000. The CEO has also guaranteed the financing of a vehicle on behalf of the Company, and was previously guaranteeing the office lease for the Company. The CEO was not compensated for issuing the guarantees.
 
Included in a consulting agreement, we acquired the rights to the trademark “Celsius” from one of our directors. Upon termination of the agreement certain payment was due.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
 
1.  
ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Vector Ventures Corp.) (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 26, 2005.  The Company was formed to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties. On December 26, 2006 the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from Vector Ventures Corp. as well as increase the authorized shares to 350,000,000 $0.001 par value common shares and 50,000,000 $0.001 par value preferred shares.

Celsius Holdings, Inc. is a holding company and carries on no operating business except through its wholly owned subsidiaries, Celsius, Inc. and Celsius Netshipments, Inc. Celsius, Inc. was incorporated in Nevada on January 18, 2007, and merged with Elite FX, Inc. (“Elite”) on January 26, 2007 (the “Merger”), which was incorporated in Florida on April 22, 2004. Celsius Netshipments, Inc. was incorporated in Florida on March 28, 2007.

Prior to January 26, 2007, the Company was in the exploration stage with its activities limited to capital formation, organization, development of its business plan and acquisition of mining claims.  On January 24, 2007, the Company entered into a merger agreement and plan of reorganization with Celsius, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Sub”), Elite FX, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Elite”), and Steve Haley, the “Indemnifying Officer” and “Securityholder Agent” of Elite, (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement Elite was merged into Sub and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on January 26, 2007 (the “Merger”).

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued:
 
·  
70,912,246 shares of its common stock to the stockholders of Elite, including 1,337,246 shares of common stock issued as compensation, as full consideration for the shares of Elite;
·  
warrants to Investa Capital Partners Inc. to purchase 3,557,812 shares of common stock of the Company for $500,000, the warrants were exercised in February 2007;
·  
1,391,500 shares of its common stock as partial consideration of termination of a consulting agreement and assignment of certain trademark rights to the name “Celsius”;
·  
options to purchase 10,647,025 shares of common stock of the Company in substitution for the options currently outstanding in Elite;
·  
1,300,000 shares of its common stock concurrent with the Merger in a private placement to non-US resident investors for aggregate consideration of US$650,000 which included the conversion of a $250,000 loan to the Company.

Celsius Holdings, Inc’s majority stockholder, Mr. Kristian Kostovski, cancelled 7,200,000 shares of common stock of the Company held by him shortly after the close of the Merger Agreement.
 
For financial accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as a recapitalization of Celsius Holdings, Inc with the former stockholders of Celsius Holdings, Inc retaining approximately 24.6% of the outstanding stock. This transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and accordingly the transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of Elite, with Elite as the accounting acquirer.
 
 
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
 
The historical financial statements are a continuation of the financial statements of the accounting acquirer, and any difference of the capital structure of the merged entity as compared to the accounting acquirer’s historical capital structure is due to the recapitalization of the acquired entity.
 
After the merger with Elite FX the Company changed its business to become a manufacturer of beverages. The calorie burning beverage Celsius® is the first brand of the Company.
 
2.  
BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein have been prepared by us, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, (the “SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of the management, the interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the statement of the results for the interim periods presented.
 
Going Concern — The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. The Company has suffered losses from operations, has a stockholders' deficit, and has a negative working capital that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management is currently seeking new capital or debt financing to provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund growth, and implement its business plan. However, no assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise any additional funds. If not successful in obtaining financing, the Company will have to substantially diminish or cease its operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Consolidation Policy — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Celsius Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Significant Estimates — The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates, and such differences could affect the results of operations reported in future periods.
 
Concentrations of Risk — Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is derived from the sale of the Celsius beverage.
 
The Company uses single supplier relationships for its raw materials purchases and bottling capacity, which potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of business risk. If these suppliers had operational problems or ceased making product available to the Company, operations could be adversely affected.
 
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high-quality financial institutions. At times, balances in the Company’s cash accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company did not have any investments with maturities greater than three months.
 
Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value. The Company has established an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors pertaining to the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. Delinquent accounts are written-off when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible. At June 30, 2008, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.
 
Inventories — Inventories include only the purchase cost and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the average method. Inventories consist of raw materials and finished products. The Company writes down inventory during the period in which such materials and products are no longer usable or marketable. At June 30, 2008 there was a write down of inventory of $16,444.
 
Property, Fixtures, and Equipment — Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of furniture, fixtures, and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset generally ranging from three to seven years. Depreciation expense recognized in the first six months of 2008 was $11,124.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — Asset impairments are recorded when the carrying values of assets are not recoverable.
 
The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, or at least annually. If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of assets exceeds the fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset.
 
The Company recognized an impairment charge during the first six months of 2007 of $26,000 and no impairment in 2008.
 
Intangible Assets — Intangible assets consist of the web domain name Celsius.com and other trademarks and trade names, and are subject to annual impairment tests. This analysis will be performed in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards (‘‘SFAS’’) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Based upon impairment analyses performed in accordance with SFAS No. 142 in fiscal years 2007 and 2006, an impairment was recorded of $26,000 and $0, respectively. The impairment was recorded for domain names and international registration of trademarks. During the Company’s annual review of long-lived assets in July of 2008, the Company concluded that no further impairment was required.
 
Revenue Recognition — Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered, invoiced at a fixed price and the collectibility is reasonably assured. Any discounts, sales incentives or similar arrangement with the customer is estimated at time of sale and deducted from revenue.
 
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
 
Advertising Costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company uses mainly radio, local sampling events and printed advertising. The Company incurred expenses of $529,000 and $166,000, during the first six months of 2008 and 2007, respectively.
 
Research and Development — Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred and consist primarily of consulting fees, raw material usage and test productions of soda. The Company incurred expenses of $138,000 and $1,000, during the first six months of 2008 and 2007, respectively.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The carrying value of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximates fair value. The carrying value of debt approximates the estimated fair value due to floating interest rates on the debt.
 
Income Taxes — Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than changes in the tax law or rates. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is deemed more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be not realized.
 
Earnings per Share — Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, convertible notes and warrants (calculated using the reverse treasury stock method). As of June 30, 2008 there were options to purchase 13.3 million shares outstanding, which exercise price averaged $0.07. The dilutive common shares equivalents, including convertible notes and warrants, of 11.1 million shares were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share, because the inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
 
Reclassifications — Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements; rather, it applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The adoption of SFAS 157 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
 
In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”).  SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities.  SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.  The adoption of SFAS 159 did not have on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations (“SFAS 141R”). SFAS 141R significantly changes the accounting for business combinations in a number of areas including the treatment of contingent consideration, pre-acquisition contingencies, transaction costs, in-process research and development, and restructuring costs. In addition, under SFAS 141R, changes in an acquired entity’s deferred tax assets and uncertain tax positions after the measurement period will impact income tax expense. SFAS 141R is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of SFAS 141R will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No 51 (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 changes the accounting and reporting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified as a component of equity. This new consolidation method significantly changes the accounting for transactions with minority interest holders. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2008. These standards will change our accounting treatment for business combinations on a prospective basis.
 
In April 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets.” This guidance is intended to improve the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under SFAS No. 141R when the underlying arrangement includes renewal or extension of terms that would require substantial costs or result in a material modification to the asset upon renewal or extension. Companies estimating the useful life of a recognized intangible asset must now consider their historical experience in renewing or extending similar arrangements or, in the absence of historical experience, must consider assumptions that market participants would use about renewal or extension as adjusted for SFAS No. 142’s entity-specific factors. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and is applicable to the Company’s fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this FSP will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
 
In March 2008 and May 2008, respectively, the FASB issued the following statements of financial accounting standards, neither of which is anticipated to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial position:
 
     
 
• 
SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133;” and
 
• 
SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.”

13.  
LONG TERM DEBENTURE
 
On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into a $6 million security purchase agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with Golden Gate Investors, Inc (“GGI”), a California corporation. Under the Security Agreement, the Company issued as a first tranche a $1.5 million convertible debenture maturing on December 19, 2011. The debenture accrues seven and 3/4 percent interest per annum.  As consideration the Company received $250,000 in cash and a note receivable for $1,250,000. The note receivable accrues eight percent interest per annum and is due on February 1, 2012. The note has a pre-payment obligation of $250,000 per month when certain criteria are fulfilled. The most significant criteria is that the Company can issue freely tradable shares under the debenture for an equivalent value. The Company estimates that according to Rule 144, the shares will be freely tradable at different dates in 2008. The Company is not obligated to convert the debenture to shares, partially or in full, unless GGI prepays the respective portion of its obligation under the note. The Security Agreement contains three more identical tranches for a total agreement of $6 million. Each new tranche can be started at any time by GGI during the debenture period which is defined as between December 19, 2007 until the balance of the existing debentures is $250,000 or less. Either party can, with a total penalty payment of $45,000 for the Company, and $100,000 for GGI, cancel any or all of the three pending tranches.
 
The debenture is convertible to common shares at a conversion rate of eighty percent of the average of the three lowest volume weighted average prices for the previous 20 trading days. The Company is not obligated to convert the amount requested to be converted into Company common stock, if the conversion price is less than $0.20 per share. GGI’s ownership in the company cannot exceed 4.99% of the outstanding common stock. Under certain circumstances the Company may be forced to pre pay the debenture with a fifty percent penalty of the pre-paid amount.
 
The Company recorded a debt discount of $186,619 with a credit to additional paid in capital for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the conversion option at the time of issuance. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the debenture. The Company recorded $23,328 as interest expense amortizing the debt discount during the first six months of 2008. The Company considered SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19 and concluded that the conversion option should not be bifurcated from the host contract according to SFAS 133 paragraph 11 a, and concluded that according to EITF 00-19 the conversion option is recorded as equity and not a liability.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors
Celsius Holdings, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet s of Celsius Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006,  and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. These consolidated 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 audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the 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 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 statements presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006,  and the results of their operations and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered losses from operations, has a stockholders' deficit, and has a negative working capital all of which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regards to these matters are described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

1.  
BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Business —Celsius Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Vector Ventures Corp., the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 26, 2005.  The Company was formed to engage in the acquisition, exploration and development of natural resource properties. On December 26, 2006 the Company amended its Articles of Incorporation to change its name from Vector Ventures Corp. as well as increase the authorized shares to 350,000,000, $0.001 par value common shares and 50,000,000, $0.001 par value preferred shares.
 
Prior to January 26, 2007, the Company was in the exploration stage with its activities limited to capital formation, organization, development of its business plan and acquisition of mining claims.  On January 24, 2007, the Company entered into a merger agreement and plan of reorganization with Celsius, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Sub”), Elite FX, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Elite”), and Steve Haley, the “Indemnifying Officer” and “Securityholder Agent” of Elite, (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement Elite was merged into Sub and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on January 26, 2007 (the “Merger”).
 
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued:
 
·  
70,912,246 shares of its common stock to the stockholders of Elite, including 1,337,246 shares of common stock issued as compensation, as full consideration for the shares of Elite;
 
·  
warrants to Investa Capital Partners Inc. to purchase 3,557,812 shares of common stock of the Company for $500,000. The warrants were exercised in February 2007;
 
·  
1,391,500 shares of its common stock as partial consideration for termination of a consulting agreement and assignment of certain trademark rights to the name “Celsius”;
 
·  
options to purchase 10,647,025 shares of common stock of the Company in substitution for the options currently outstanding in Elite;
 
·  
1,300,000 shares of its common stock concurrent with the Merger in a private placement to non-US resident investors for aggregate consideration of US$650,000 which included the conversion of a $250,000 loan to the Company.
 
Celsius Holdings, Inc’s majority stockholder, Mr. Kristian Kostovski, cancelled 7,200,000 shares of common stock of the Company held by him shortly after the close of the Merger Agreement.
 
For financial accounting purposes, the Merger was treated as a recapitalization of Celsius Holdings, Inc with the former stockholders of the Celsius Holdings, Inc retaining approximately 24.6% of the outstanding stock. This transaction has been accounted for as a reverse acquisition and accordingly the transaction has been treated as a recapitalization of Elite FX, Inc., with Elite FX, Inc. as the accounting acquirer. The historical financial statements are a continuation of the financial statements of the accounting acquirer, and any difference of the capital structure of the merged entity as compared to the accounting acquirer’s historical capital structure is due to the recapitalization of the acquired entity.
 
 
 
 
CELSIUS HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Going Concern — The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on a going concern basis. The Company has suffered losses from operations, has a stockholders' deficit, and has a negative working capital that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management is currently seeking new capital or debt financing to provide funds needed to increase liquidity, fund growth, and implement its business plan. However, no assurances can be given that the Company will be able to raise any additional funds. If not successful in obtaining financing, the Company will have to substantially diminish or cease its operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Consolidation Policy — The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Celsius Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Significant Estimates — The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Concentrations of Risk — Substantially all of the Company’s revenue derives from the sale of the Celsius beverage.
 
The Company uses single supplier relationships for its raw materials purchases and bottling capacity, which potentially subjects the Company to a concentration of business risk. If these suppliers had operational problems or ceased making product available to the Company, operations could be adversely affected.
 
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with high-quality financial institutions. At times, balances in the Company’s cash accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 2007, the Company did not have any investments with maturities greater than three months.
 
Accounts Receivable — Accounts receivable are reported at net realizable value. The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors pertaining to the credit risk of specific customers, historical trends, and other information. Delinquent accounts are written-off when it is determined that the amounts are uncollectible. At December 31, 2007, there was no allowance for doubtful accounts.
 
Inventories — Inventories include only the purchase cost and are stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined using the average method. Inventories consist of raw materials and finished products. The Company writes down inventory during the period in which such materials and products are no longer usable or marketable.
 
Property, Fixtures, and Equipment — Furniture, fixtures and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of furniture, fixtures, and equipment is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset generally ranging from three to seven years.
 
 
 
 
CELSIUS HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets — Asset impairments are recorded when the carrying values of assets are not recoverable.
 
The Company reviews long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or at least annually. If the sum of the undiscounted expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment loss. Impairment losses are measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of assets exceeds the fair value of the asset. When fair values are not available, the Company estimates fair value using the expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the asset.
 
Intangible Assets — Intangible assets consist of the web domain name Celsius.com and other trademarks and trade names, and are subject to annual impairment tests. This analysis will be performed in accordance with Statement of Financial Standards (‘‘SFAS’’) No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Based upon impairment analyses performed in accordance with SFAS No. 142 in fiscal years 2007 and 2006, impairment was recorded of $26,000 and $0, respectively. The impairment was recorded was for domain names and international registration of trademarks. During the Company’s annual review of long-lived assets in July of 2007, the Company cannot estimate a positive cash flow from the internet business or international business and therefore impaired these assets completely.
 
Revenue Recognition — Revenue is recognized when the products are delivered, invoiced at a fixed price and the collectability is reasonably assured. Any discounts, sales incentives or similar arrangements with the customer are estimated at time of sale and deducted from revenue.
 
Advertising Costs — Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. The Company uses mainly radio, local sampling events and printed advertising. The Company incurred advertising expense of $561,000 and $452,000, during the fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
Research and Development — Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred and consists primarily of consulting fees, raw material usage and test productions of beverages. The Company incurred expenses of $214,000 and $11,000, during the fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively.
 
Fair Value of Financial Instruments — The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximates fair value. The carrying value of debt approximates the estimated fair value due to floating interest rates on the debt.
 
Income Taxes — Income taxes are accounted for using an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. In estimating future tax consequences, the Company generally considers all expected future events other than changes in the tax law or rates. A valuation allowance is recorded when it is deemed more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be not realized.
 
Earnings per Share — Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing income available to stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and dilutive common share equivalents outstanding during the period. Dilutive common share equivalents consist of shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants (calculated using the reverse treasury stock method). Common share equivalents outstanding were 8,534,864 and 0, as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Share-Based Payments — In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R) "Share-Based Payment," (“SFAS 123(R)”), which replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Under SFAS 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No.107 "SAB 107'. SAB 107 expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staffs views regarding the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company has fully adopted the provisions of SFAS 123(R) and related interpretations as provided by SAB 107. As such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant as the fair value of the share-based payments. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" (SFAS 157). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements; rather, it applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. The provisions of SFAS 157 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS 157 to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
 
In September 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 108, “Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements,” which eliminates the diversity in practice surrounding the quantification and evaluation of financial statement errors. The guidance outlined in SAB 108 is effective for the Company in 2008 and is consistent with our historical practices for assessing such matters when circumstances have required such an evaluation. Accordingly, the Company does not believe that adoption of SAB 108 will have any impact on the Company.
 
In February 2007, FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is assessing the impact the adoption of SFAS 159 will have on the Company’s financial position and results of operations for fiscal 2008.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements—an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). SFAS 160 requires companies with noncontrolling interests to disclose such interests clearly as a portion of equity but separate from the parent’s equity. The noncontrolling interest’s portion of net income must also be clearly presented on the Income Statement. SFAS 160 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscals years beginning after December 15, 2008 and will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Company does not believe that adoption of SFAS 160 will have any impact on the Company.
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (R), “Business Combinations (revised 2007)” (“SFAS 141 (R)”). SFAS 141 (R) applies the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations established in SFAS 141 to all acquisitions where the acquirer gains a controlling interest, regardless of whether consideration was exchanged. Consistent with SFAS 141, SFAS 141 (R) requires the acquirer to fair value the assets and liabilities of the acquiree and record goodwill on bargain purchases, with the application to all acquisitions where control is achieved. SFAS 141 (R) is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and will be adopted by the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. The Company does not believe that adoption of SFAS 141 (R) will have any impact on the Company.

LONG TERM DEBENTURE
 
On December 19, 2007, the Company entered into a $6 million security purchase agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with Golden Gate Investors, Inc (“GGI”), a California corporation. Under the Security Agreement, the Company issued as a first tranche a $1.5 million convertible debenture maturing on December 19, 2011. The debenture accrues seven and 3/4 percent interest per annum.  As consideration the Company received $250,000 in cash and a note receivable for $1,250,000. The note receivable accrues eight percent interest per annum and is due on December 19, 2012. The note has a pre-payment obligation of $250,000 per month when certain criteria are fulfilled. The most significant criteria is that the Company can issue freely tradable shares under the debenture for an equivalent value. The Company estimates that according to Rule 144, the shares will be freely tradable on June 19, 2008. The Company is not obligated to convert the debenture to shares, partially or in full, unless GGI prepays its obligation under the note. The Security Agreement contains three more identical tranches for a total agreement of $6 million. Each new tranche can be started at any time by GGI during the second debenture period which is defined as between December 19, 2007 until the balance of the existing debentures is $250,000 or less. Either party can, with a total penalty payment of $45,000 for the Company, and $100,000 for GGI, cancel any or all of the three pending tranches.
 
The debenture is convertible to common shares at a conversion rate of eighty percent of the average of the three lowest volume weighted average prices for the previous 20 trading days. GGI’s ownership in the company can not exceed 4.99% of the outstanding common stock. Under certain circumstances the Company may be forced to pre pay the debenture with a fifty percent penalty of the pre-paid amount.
 
The Company recorded a debt discount of $186,619 with credit to additional paid in capital for the intrinsic value of the beneficial conversion feature of the conversion option at the time of issuance. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the debenture. The Company recorded $1,533 as interest expense amortizing the debt discount in December 2007. The Company considered SFAS 133 and EITF 00-19 and concluded that the conversion option should not be bifurcated from the host contract according to SFAS paragraph 11 a, and concluded that according to EITF 00-19 the conversion option is recorded as equity and not liability.

In assessing the ability to realize a portion of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and projected future taxable income in making the assessment. The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006 was $2.2 million and $ 817,063 , respectively. The increase in valuation allowance was $1.3 million and $570,000 in 2007 and 2006, respectively. The increase in valuation allowance was primarily attributable to the increase in net operating losses. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance at December 31, 2007 of $2,235,000 or 100% of the assets.

In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes – an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” ((“FIN48”). This Interpretation prescribes a consistent recognition threshold and measurement standard, as well as clear criteria for subsequently recognizing, derecognizing and measuring tax positions for financial statement purposes. The Interpretation also requires expanded disclosure with respect to uncertainties as they relate to income tax accounting. Fin 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management has evaluated all of its tax positions and determined that FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations during its year ended December 31, 2007.

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
The Company adopted an Incentive Stock Plan on January 18, 2007. This plan is intended to provide incentives which will attract and retain highly competent persons at all levels as employees of the Company, as well as independent contractors providing consulting or advisory services to the Company, by providing them opportunities to acquire the Company's common stock or to receive monetary payments based on the value of such shares pursuant to awards issued under the plan. While the plan terminates 10 years after the adoption date, issued options have their own schedule of termination. Until 2017, options to acquire up to16.0 million shares of common stock may be granted at no less than fair market value on the date of grant. Upon exercise, shares of new common stock are issued by the Company.
 
The Company has issued approximately 11.7 million options to purchase shares at an average price of $0.09 with a fair value of $631,293. For the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company recognized approximately $138,000, of non-cash compensation expense (included in Selling, General and Administrative expense in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations). As of December 31, 2007, the Company had approximately $488,000 of unrecognized pre-tax non-cash compensation expense which the Company expects to recognize, based on a weighted-average period of 1.3 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of fully vested stock options is $19,000. The Company used the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and straight-line amortization of compensation expense over the two to three year requisite service or vesting period of the grant. The following is a summary of the assumptions used:

(a) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, except an action by or in the right of the corporation, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation, against expenses, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (a) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
 
(b) A corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (a) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; or (b) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation. Indemnification may not be made for any claim, issue or matter as to which such a person has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to the corporation or for amounts paid in settlement to the corporation, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper.
 
(c) To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation shall indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense.
 
 
 
 
Articles of Incorporation and Other Arrangements of the Registrant
 
Our articles of incorporation provide for the indemnification of every person that is or was a director or officer of the Company or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director or officer of another corporation, or as its representative in a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.  The articles of incorporation provide that such right of indemnification shall be a contract right which may be enforced in any manner desired by such person.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions described above, 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 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than our payment of expenses incurred or paid by our director, officer or controlling person 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, we will, unless in the opinion of our 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
On January 24, 2007, the Company entered into a merger agreement and plan of reorganization with Celsius, Inc., a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Sub”), Elite FX, Inc., a Florida corporation (“Elite”), and Stephen C. Haley, the “Indemnifying Officer” and “Securityholder Agent” of Elite, (the “Merger Agreement”). Under the terms of the Merger Agreement Elite was merged into Sub and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company on January 26, 2007 (the “Merger”).
 
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued:
 
·  
70,912,246 shares of its Common Stock to the stockholders of Elite as full consideration for the shares of Elite;
 
·  
1,391,500 shares of its Common Stock and a promissory note in the amount of $250,000.00 to Specialty Nutrition Group, Inc. (“SNG”) as consideration for the termination of a consulting agreement and the assignment of certain trademark rights to the name “Celsius”. The note is non-interest bearing and requires the Company to pay SNG $15,000 a month for eight (8) months starting March 30, 2007 and a lump sum payment of $130,000 on November 30, 2007.
 
These shares of our Common Stock and the note qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offerings were not “public offerings” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, and manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares or notes to a high number of investors. In addition, these stockholders and the note holder had and agreed to the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2). Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for these transactions.
 
In addition, under the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company issued:
 
·  
warrants to Investa Capital Partners Inc. representing 3,557,812 shares of Common Stock of the Company which were exercised by on February 9, 2007 for an aggregate consideration of $500,000 in cash.
 
·  
1,300,000 shares of its Common Stock concurrent with the Merger in a private placement to non-US resident investors for aggregate consideration of US$650,000 which included the conversion of a $250,000 loan to the Company
 
 
 
 
On November 8, 2006, the Company issued a promissory note in the principal amount of US$250,000 to Barca Business Services (“Barca”).  Prior to the execution of the Note, there was no relationship between the Company and Barca. The Note bore interest at an annual rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and was due and payable in full one year from the date of issuance. The note was converted into 500,000 shares of its Common Stock as part of a private placement conducted concurrent with the close of the Merger Agreement.
 
On February 23, 2007 the Company issued 3,557,812 shares of Common Stock to Investa Capital Partners Inc. for an aggregate consideration of $500,000 in cash representing their exercise of the warrant issued under the terms of the Merger Agreement.
 
On May 15, and June 2, 2007, the Company issued 30,000 and 50,000 shares of Common Stock, respectively to RedChip Companies as consideration for investor relations services. The shares were valued at $70,500 based on the then current market price.
 
On June 15, 2007, the Company issued 25,000 shares of Common Stock to Fusion Capital as non-allocable expense reimbursement to cover such items as travel expenses and other expenses in connection with their due diligence of a finance transaction with the Company.
 
On June 22 and July 16, 2007 the Company issued a total of 3,168,305 for a total consideration of $1.0 million as part of the Purchase Agreement with Fusion Capital.
 
In September and October, 2007 the Company issued a total of 250,000 unregistered shares for a total consideration of $100,000 as part of a private placement.
 
On October 1, 2007, the Company issued 30,000 unregistered shares as consideration for a trademark agreement. The shares were valued at $16,500 based on the then current market price.
 
On October 25, 2007, the Company issued 100,000 unregistered shares as consideration for a licensing agreement. The shares were valued at $53,000 based on the then current market price.
 
On January 22, 2008 the Company issued 1,000,000 unregistered common stock and note for $105,000 in exchange for a note and accrued interest of an aggregate value of $225,155 to Brennecke Partners, LLC.
 
On February 15, 2008 the Company issued 16,671 unregistered shares of common stock in accordance to its 2006 Stock Incentive Plan to an employee exercising vested options.
 
In February, 2008 the Company issued a total of 3,198,529 unregistered shares of common stock in private placements for an aggregate consideration of $298,900, net of commissions.
 
In March, 2008 the Company issued a total of 750,000 unregistered shares of common stock as compensation to an international distributor with an aggregate consideration of $120,000.
 
In March, 2008 the Company issued a total of 10,000,000 unregistered shares of common stock in a private placement, for an aggregate consideration of $500,100. In addition, the investor received a warrant to purchase seven million unregistered shares of common stock during a 3-year period, at an exercise price of $0.13 per share. Of the total consideration, $100,000 was paid in March 2008 and the remaining $400,100 was paid on April 7, 2008.
 
In June 2008 the Company issued 11.2 million shares as conversion for a $750,000 convertible note that was originally issued in December 2007 and April 2008.
 
Since June 2008 to date , the Company issued 9.5 million shares for $590.000 at an average price of $0.062 , as partial conversion of a convertible debenture issued in December 2007.
 
In July and August, 2008, the Company issued 4,430,229 shares as partial conversion of a convertible debenture issued in December 2007.
 
In June and July 2008, the Company issued two convertible notes of $250,000, each; the notes were cancelled as part of the CDS Transaction.
 
 
 
In September, 2008, the Company granted 25,000 shares to a distributor, with a value of $1,450, as compensation for purchases of products from the Company.
 
The Company believes that all of the foregoing sales notes and shares qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance of the notes and shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offerings were not “public offerings” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, and manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares or notes to a high number of investors. In addition, these stockholders and the note holder had and agreed to the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2). Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and Section S promulgated under the Securities Act for these transactions.
 
We did not employ an underwriter in connection with the issuance of the securities described above. We believe that the issuance of the foregoing securities was exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

ITEM 17.  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:
 
(a) To include any Prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”);
 
(b) To reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement, or most recent post-effective amendment, which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement; and 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 prospects filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in the 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.
 
2. 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.
 
3. 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.
 
4. For determining liability of the undersigned small business issuer under the Securities Act to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned small business issuer undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned small business issuer pursuant to this Registration Statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned small business issuer will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
 
 
 
(a) Any preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus of the undersigned small business issuer relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 of the Securities Act;
 
(b) Any free writing Prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer or used or referred to by the undersigned small business issuer;
 
(c) The portion of any other free writing Prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned small business issuer or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned small business issuer; and
 
(d) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned small business issuer to the purchaser.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the provisions above, 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, 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 our directors, officers, or controlling persons in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding, 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 counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and we will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B of the Securities Act or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A of the Securities Act, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
