NEW CENTURY COMPANIES, INC.
 
We are engaged in acquiring, re-manufacturing and selling pre-owned Computer Numerically Controlled ("CNC") machine tools to manufacturing customers. We provide rebuilt, retrofit and remanufacturing services for numerous brands of machine tools.
 
We also manufacture original equipment CNC large turning lathes and attachments under the trade name Century Turn. CNC machines use commands from onboard computers to control the movements of cutting tools and rotation speeds of the parts being produced. Computer controls enable operators to program operations such as part rotation, tooling selection and tooling movement for specific parts and then store the programs in memory for future use. The machines are able to produce parts while left unattended. Because of this ability, as well as superior speed of operation, a CNC machine is able to produce the same amount of work as several manually controlled machines, as well as reduce the number of operators required; generating higher profits with less re-work and scrap. Since the introduction of CNC tooling machines, continual advances in computer control technology have allowed for easier programming and additional machine capabilities. A vertical turning machine permits the production of larger, heavier and more oddly shaped parts on a machine, which uses less floor space when compared to the traditional horizontal turning machine because the spindle and cam are aligned on a vertical plane, with the spindle on the bottom.
 
The primary industry segments in which our machines are utilized to make component parts are in aerospace, power generation turbines, military, component parts for the energy sector for natural gas and oil exploration, medical, aerospace and mining fields.
 
We sell our products to customers in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
 
Over the last several years, we have designed and developed a large horizontal CNC turning lathe with productivity features new to the metalworking industry. We believe that a potential market for the Century Turn Lathe, in addition to the markets mentioned above, is aircraft landing gear.
 
We are also engaged in assembling sound-wall modules made from Quilite(R), a lightweight, graffiti resistant concrete alternative used in freeway sound barriers and in other sound absorbing structures and non-weight bearing applications, where privacy or screening is necessary.
 
Our principal offices are located at 9835 Santa Fe Springs Rd. Santa Fe Springs, CA 90670 and our telephone number is (562) 906-8455. We are a Delaware corporation.

FINANCING TRANSACTIONS
 
We are registering shares of common stock and shares of common stock underlying convertible notes, in connection with the following financing transactions:
 
MOTIVATED MINDS BRIDGE LOAN
 
On February 15, 2006, to obtain funding for our operations, we issued a Series A Convertible Note (the "Note") in the principal amount of $300,000 to Motivated Minds, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (the "Lender"). The Note is convertible into shares of our common stock, at a fixed conversion price of $0.66 per share.
 
The Note bears interest as follows: (i) equal to twenty-four percent (24%) per annum on the unpaid principal balance from the issue date to the sixtieth (60th) day from the issue date; and (ii) twenty-seven percent (27%) per annum after the sixtieth (60th) day from the Issue Date to the Maturity Date.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Note, the Note matured on the earliest date of a closing of a debt or equity financing or May 16, 2006. On March 7, 2006, the Note holder and the Company agreed to extend the Note until May 16, 2006. As a consideration for the extension, we issued 30,000 shares of restricted common stock to the Lender. On August 8, 2006, we entered into an Allonge to the Note pursuant to which Motivated Minds agreed to extend the maturity date of the Note to provide that $150,000 shall be due and payable on August 16, 2006 and $150,000 shall be due on October 16, 2006. In connection with the Allonge, we agreed to issue 45,000 shares of restricted common stock to Motivated Minds. Pursuant to an amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement dated February 15, 2006, the Company granted Motivated Minds piggy back registration rights with respect to the 45,000 shares of common stock. On August 16, 2006 we repaid $150,000 of principal and all accrued interest to Motivated Minds. The due date on the remaining $150,000 principal was extended through December 16, 2006 and we issued an additional 30,000 restricted common stock to the Lender. On December 7, 2006, we repaid $50,000 of principal and the due date on $100,000 balance on Note was extended until January 31, 2007. Additionally, we agreed to add an additional $5,000 to the interest due pursuant to the Note. On January 23, 2007, we repaid the entire principal and interest in the aggregate amount of $105,000 due on the Note.

In connection with the Note, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated February 16, 2006, pursuant to which we granted piggy back registration rights to the Motivated Minds in connection with the shares that were issuabale upon conversion of the Note, the shares issued to Motivated Minds, and issuable upon exercise of the warrants.
 
In connection with the initial issuance of the Note, we paid aggregate fees and expenses of $30,000, issued 30,000 restricted shares of our common stock, and 454,545 warrants to Motivated Minds. The Warrant is exercisable at a price of $0.66 per share and will expire on February 14, 2011. Also, we issued an aggregate of 45,454 warrants to the Placement Agents, Source Capital Group, Inc. and Ascendiant Securities, LLC, which warrants are exercisable at a price of $.66 per share and expire on February 14, 2011.
 
In summary, we have issued to Motivated Minds an aggregate 135,000 restricted shares of common stock, as inducements for the convertible note and extensions of the maturity due date, which are being registered in this Registration Statement of which this prospectus forms a part thereof. The shares were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.
 
Motivated Minds has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to exercise the warrant and convert the Note and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of our common stock held by it and its affiliates, after such conversion does not exceed 4.99% of our then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

The Note and the Warrants were offered and sold to Motivated Minds in a transaction made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. Motivated Minds is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

CAMOFI PRIVATE PLACEMENT

On February 28, 2006, to obtain funding for our operations, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement ("CAMOFI Purchase Agreement") with CAMOFI Master LDC ("CAMOFI") for the sale of (i) $3,500,000 in 12% Senior Secured Convertible Note (the "CAMOFI Note") which are convertible into common stock at a fixed conversion price of $0.63 and (ii) stock purchase warrants (the "Warrant") to purchase 3,476,190 shares of our common stock at a fixed exercise price of $0.63. We closed the financing pursuant to the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement on February 28, 2006.

The CAMOFI Note bears interest at 12% and matures on February 28, 2009. Interest on the aggregate of the unconverted and then outstanding principal amount is payable monthly in arrears, in cash or registered shares of common stock at the Company's election, or a combination thereof, beginning on the first day of the first month after the issuance date of March 1, 2006. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payment in shares of common stock can only occur if during the 20 trading days immediately prior to the payment date, the payment in shares of common stock would not exceed 25% of the volume for any of the previous 20 trading days, we shall have given the holder notice, and the following conditions (the “Equity Conditions”) have been met: (i) we have duly honored conversions and redemptions; (ii) all liquidated damages and other amounts owing in respect of the CAMOFI Note have been paid; (iii) there is an effective registration statement pursuant to which the holder is permitted to resell all of the shares issuable pursuant to the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement; (iv) our stock is listed or quoted for trading on either of the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the American Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or the OTC Bulletin Board and the shares issuable pursuant to the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement are listed for trading; (v) there is sufficient number of authorized but unissued and unreserved shares for the issuance of shares issuable pursuant to the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement; (vi) we are not in default under the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement; (vii) the shares issued or issuable will not exceed 4.99%; (viii) no public announcement of a pending or proposed fundamental transaction (such as a merger or consolidation of the Company, any completed tender offer or exchange, any reclassification of our common stock or compulsory share exchange where our common stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property) or change of control transaction has occurred that has not been consummated; (ix) the closing price of our common stock is at lease 115% of the conversion price of the CAMOFI Note, (as adjusted).

We have the right to prepay in cash, all, or a portion of the CAMOFI Note, at 120% of the principal amount plus accrued interest at the date of prepayment. In addition, we are required to repay the CAMOFI Note at 120% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest to the date of repayment in the event we shall (A) sell all or a portion of the our assets, (B) become subject to change in control transaction, or (C) Quilite International, LLC's audited financial statement are materially worse than its unaudited financial statements. In determining whether Qulite’s audited financial statements are materially worse than its unaudited financial statements, we will rely on a qualified third party accounting expert to determine the differences. The comparison will take place prior to the closing of any transaction between the Company and Quilite. Presently, the Company has not set a time for the consummation of any transactions with Quilite.

On the first day of each month, commencing September 1, 2006, we are required to redeem 1/30th of the original principal amount of the CAMOFI Note plus accrued but unpaid interest, the sum of all liquidated damages and any other amounts then owing to such Holder in respect of the Note which shall be paid in cash, equal to 105% of such amount; provided, however, upon 10 trading days prior written irrevocable notice, in lieu of a cash redemption payment, we may elect to pay 100% of such amount due in shares of our common stock based on a conversion price equal to 85% of the average of the 10 consecutive VWAPs immediately prior to the applicable payment. As of December 31, 2006, we have repaid approximately $467,000 of principal balance of the Note.
 
3


Upon the occurrence of an event of default, at the Holder's election, the full principal amount of the Note, together with interest and any other amounts owed pursuant to the CAMOFI Note shall become immediately due and payable in cash. The aggregate amount payable upon an event of default shall be equal to 120% of the principal amount of the CAMOFI Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other costs, expenses, and liquidated damages due with respect to such CAMOFI Note. Commencing 5 days after the occurrence of any event of default that results in the eventual acceleration of the CAMOFI Note, the interest rate on the Note shall accrue at the rate of 20% per annum, or such lower maximum amount of interest permitted to be charged under applicable law. Pursuant to the terms of the Note, an event of default means (subject to any applicable grace or cure period) (i) any default in the payment of any principal interest or liquidated damages in connection with the Note; (ii) failure to observe any covenant or agreement contained in the Note; (iii) a default under any of the other documents executed in connection with the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement or any other material agreement, lease document or instrument to which the Company or any subsidiary is bound which default is not cured within 10 trading days; (iv) any representation or warranty made in any of the documents or in any written statement delivered to CAMOFI shall be untrue in all material respects as of the date made or deemed made; (v) any proceeding under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws commenced against the Company or its subsidiaries, which remains un-dismissed after 60 days or any adjudication of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt.

In connection with the CAMOFI Purchase Agreement, we entered into an escrow agreement by and among, CAMOFI, Katten Muchin Rosenman, as Escrow Agent, and us and a letter agreement with CAMOFI, pursuant to which $1,500,000 was deposited into escrow by CAMOFI. Pursuant to the terms of the letter agreement, the $1,500,000 will be released to us upon consummation of the acquisition of Quilite International LLC, provided however, (v) the terms of such acquisition are satisfactory to CAMOFI; (w) CAMOFI shall be satisfied, in its sole discretion, with the progress of negotiations for the extension or renewal of our Headquarters lease; (x) no default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing; (y) there shall have been no material adverse change in our business and the business of our subsidiaries or results of operations; and (z) the Equity Conditions shall have all been satisfied. Based upon changed circumstances the parties determined to release the funds held in escrow to the Company as follows: (a) $750,000 on July 10, 2006, which was used for general working capital purposes and (b) $750,000 on August 4, 2006, which was used to repay a portion of the CAMOFI Note.

The Warrant is exercisable at a price of $0.63 per share and will expire on February 28, 2013. In the event that there is no effective registration statement covering the resale of the shares underlying the Warrant, the Warrant may be exercised by means of a cashless exercise. The Warrant provides for certain adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, including, but not limited to, any payment of a stock dividend or distributions to our shareholders; (2) subdivision of our common stock into a larger number of shares; (3) reclassification of our common stock; and (4) the combination of our common stock into a smaller number of shares.

On December 19, 2006, we entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the “Amendment”) with CAMOFI. Pursuant to the Amendment we agreed to file registration statements to cover the resale of the shares issuable upon conversion of the CAMOFI Note and warrants as follows:

 
i)
on or before January 31, prepare and file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) a Registration Statement covering the resale of all common Stock issuable upon conversion of the 12% Senior Secured Convertible Note dated February 28, 2009, up to 33% of our issued and outstanding stock;

 
ii)
within 90 days from effectiveness of the Registration Statement referred to in i) above, prepare and file a Registration Statement covering the resale of all common Stock issuable upon conversion of the 12% Senior Secured Convertible Note dated February 28, 2009 to the extent not registered above plus all shares of common stock underlying the Purchaser Warrants, up to 33% of our issued and outstanding stock;

 
iii)
within 90 days from effectiveness of the Registration Statement referred to in ii) above, prepare and file a Registration Statement covering the resale of all common Stock issuable upon conversion of the 12% Senior Secured Convertible Note dated February 28, 2009 plus all shares of common stock underlying the Purchaser Warrants to extent not registered above, up to 33% of our issued and outstanding stock;

 
iv)
within 90 days from effectiveness of the Registration Statement referred to in iii) above, prepare and file a Registration Statement covering the resale of all additional Purchaser Warrants to extent not registered above, up to 33% of our issued and outstanding stock;
 
4

 
We agreed to use our best efforts to have the registration statements mentioned above declared effective 90 days after each filing date (105 days for the current Registration Statement), or within 120 days, if the applicable registration statement is reviewed by the SEC. In addition, we agreed to use our best efforts to keep each registration statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until all the securities covered by such registration statement have been sold or may be sold without volume restriction pursuant to Rule 144(k).

Pursuant to the Amendment, CAMOFI agreed to waive any liquidated damages accrued prior to the date of the Amendment. However, failure to meet the timetable set forth above will subject us to liquidated damages equal to 1.5% of the outstanding principal of the Notes for any registrable securities then held by CAMOFI for the first 30 days (or part thereof) after the default date and an additional 1.5% for any subsequent 30-day period (or part thereof), thereafter or a maximum of 10% of the remaining balance of the CAMOFI Notes. If we fail to pay any partial liquidated damages within seven days after the date payable, we will be required to pay interest thereon at a rate of 20% per annum (or such lesser maximum amount that is permitted to be paid by applicable law) to CAMOFI, accruing daily from the date such partial liquidated damages are due until such amounts, plus all such interest thereon, are paid in full.

In connection with the Amendment, we issued to CAMOFI warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares of common stock of our common stock, at an exercise price of $0.35 for a term of seven years. We are also required to register the shares underlying these warrants.

The CAMOFI Note is secured by substantially all of our assets.

CAMOFI has contractually agreed to restrict its ability to convert the CAMOFI Note and exercise the Warrant and receive shares of our common stock such that the number of shares of our common stock held by them and their affiliates after such conversion or exercise does not exceed 4.99% of our then issued and outstanding shares of common stock.

In connection with the CAMOFI Note, we paid aggregate fees and expenses of $377,500 to CAMOFI. In addition, we issued 722,539 warrants to the Placement Agent, Ascendiant Securities, LLC, and its assignee which warrants are exercisable at price of $0.63 and which expire on February 28, 2013. Ascendiant also received 250,000 restricted shares of our common stock.

The CAMOFI Note and corresponding warrants were offered and sold to CAMOFI in a private placement transaction made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder. CAMOFI is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.

For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, we had net income (loss) of $668,359 and $(1,423,359), respectively, and a net loss of $(990,962) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. As of September 30, 2006, we had a working capital deficit of $208,902. We cannot give any assurance that we will generate significant revenue or always have profits. In addition, we anticipate that we will require additional capital commitments during 2007 to sustain our operations. This could have a detrimental effect on the long-term capital appreciation of our stock.
 
THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY.
 
There can be no assurance that we will achieve profitability. Our revenues and operating results may fluctuate from quarter to quarter and from year to year due to a combination of factors, including, but not limited to, cost of production and volume of sales. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to achieve profitability on a quarterly or annual basis. If we do not achieve profitability, our business will be adversely affected and investors may lose all or substantially all of their investment.
 
WE ARE DEPENDENT UPON A FEW KEY PERSONNEL AND THEIR LOSS MAY NEGATIVELY IMPACT OUR RESULTS FROM OPERATIONS
 
Our ability to operate our businesses and implement our strategies depends, in part, on the efforts of our executive officers and other key employees particularly Messrs. Duquette and Czikmantori. In addition, our future success will depend on, among other factors, our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, particularly research professionals, technical sales professionals and engineers. The loss of the services of any key employee or the failure to attract or retain other qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business or business prospects.
 
WE MAY BE EXPOSED TO PRODUCT LIABILITY AND WARRANTY CLAIMS
 
We may be exposed to product liability and warranty claims in the event that the use of our products results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage or our products actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected. While we maintain insurance coverage with respect to certain liability claims, we may not be able to obtain such insurance on acceptable terms in the future, if at all, and any such insurance may not provide adequate coverage against product liability claims. In addition, product liability claims can be expensive to defend and can divert the attention of management and other personnel for significant periods of time, regardless of the ultimate outcome. An unsuccessful defense of a product liability claim could have an adverse affect on our business, results of operations and financial condition and cash flows. Even if we are successful in defending against a claim relating to our products, claims of this nature could cause our customers to lose confidence in our products and our company. Warranty claims are not covered by insurance, and we may incur significant warranty costs in the future for which we would not be reimbursed.
 
WE RELY ON EXTERNAL FINANCING TO MEET OUR CASH REQUIREMENTS
 
6

 
In February 2006, we received $300,000 from Motivated Minds and $3,500,000 in debt financing from CAMOFI. However we will continue to rely upon external financing sources to meet the cash requirements of our ongoing operations. In the future, we may be required to raise additional funds, particularly if we exhaust the funds advanced under that agreement, are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our operations and are required to repay the convertible debentures as a result of Motivated Mind's and CAMOFI's failure to convert the debentures into common stock. To the extent that we are unable to raise sufficient capital, our business plan will require substantial modification and our operations curtailed. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to ultimately attain profitable operations, generate sufficient cash flow to meet its obligations, and obtain additional financing as may be required.
 
WE MAY NEED SIGNIFICANT INFUSIONS OF ADDITIONAL CAPITAL, WHICH MAY RESULT IN DILUTION TO YOUR OWNERSHIP AND VOTING RIGHTS IN US.
 
Based upon our current cash reserves and forecasted operations, we may need to obtain outside funding to implement our plan of operation over the next twelve months. Our need for additional capital to finance our business strategy, operations, and growth will be greater should, among other things, revenue or expense estimates prove to be incorrect. If we fail to arrange for sufficient capital in the future, we may be required to reduce the scope of our business activities until we can obtain adequate financing. We may not be able to obtain additional financing in sufficient amounts or on acceptable terms when needed, which could adversely affect our operating results and prospects and force us to curtail our business operations. Debt financing must be repaid regardless of whether or not we generate profits or cash flows from our business activities. Equity financing may result in dilution to existing stockholders. If we do not receive funding at lower prices, this will have a dilutive effect on the value of our securities issued at higher prices. Further, the sale, or potential sale of large amounts of our securities will, in all likelihood, have a depressive effect on the price of our securities which will affect the value of your investment.
 
OUR AUDITORS HAVE INCLUDED A GOING CONCERN MATTER IN THEIR OPINION
 
Our auditors opinion regarding our financial statements includes concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern, which contemplates among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These concerns arise from the fact that as of December 31, 2005 we had a negative working capital of approximately $2,083,000, an accumulated deficit of approximately $6,959,000 and were in default on certain notes payable. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We intend to fund our operations through anticipated increased sales and debt and equity financing arrangements which management believes may be insufficient to fund our capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2006. We will be required to seek addition funds to finance our long-term operations. There can be no assurance that we will be able to able to obtain additional financing. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, you may lose your entire investment.
 
RISKS RELATING TO OUR COMMON STOCK
 
IF WE FAIL TO REMAIN CURRENT ON OUR REPORTING REQUIREMENTS, WE COULD BE REMOVED FROM THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD WHICH WOULD LIMIT THE ABILITY OF BROKER-DEALERS TO SELL OUR SECURITIES AND THE ABILITY OF STOCKHOLDERS TO SELL THEIR SECURITIES IN THE SECONDARY MARKET.
 
Companies trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As a result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary market.
 
OUR COMMON STOCK IS SUBJECT TO THE "PENNY STOCK" RULES OF THE SEC AND THE TRADING MARKET IN OUR SECURITIES IS LIMITED, WHICH MAKES TRANSACTIONS IN OUR STOCK CUMBERSOME AND MAY REDUCE THE VALUE OF AN INVESTMENT IN OUR STOCK.
 
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted Rule 15g-9 which establishes the definition of a "penny stock," for the purposes relevant to us, as any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share or with an exercise price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. For any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require:
 
 
·
that a broker or dealer approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks; and
 
 
·
the broker or dealer receive from the investor a written agreement to the transaction, setting forth the identity and quantity of the penny stock to be purchased.
 
In order to approve a person's account for transactions in penny stocks, the broker or dealer must:
 
 
·
obtain financial information and investment experience objectives of the person; and
 
7

 
 
·
make a reasonable determination that the transactions in penny stocks are suitable for that person and the person has sufficient knowledge and experience in financial matters to be capable of evaluating the risks of transactions in penny stocks.
 
The broker or dealer must also deliver, prior to any transaction in a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market, which, in highlight form:
 
 
·
sets forth the basis on which the broker or dealer made the suitability determination; and
 
that the broker or dealer received a signed, written agreement from the investor prior to the transaction. Generally, brokers may be less willing to execute transactions in securities subject to the "penny stock" rules. This may make it more difficult for investors to dispose of our common stock and cause a decline in the market value of our stock.
 
Disclosure also has to be made about the risks of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and in secondary trading and about the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative, current quotations for the securities and the rights and remedies available to an investor in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions. Finally, monthly statements have to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account and information on the limited market in penny stocks.
 
OUR SHARE PRICE IS VOLATILE
 
Our Common Stock has experienced, and may continue to experience, substantial price volatility, particularly as a result of variations between our actual or anticipated financial results and the published expectations of analysts and as a result of announcements by us and our competitors. In addition, the stock market has experienced extreme price fluctuations that have affected the market price of many companies and that have often been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. A major decline in the capital markets generally, or in the market price of our securities may negatively impact our ability to make future strategic acquisitions, raise capital, issue debt, or retain employees. These factors, as well as general economic and political conditions, may in turn have a material adverse effect the market price of our Common Stock.
 
RISKS RELATING TO OUR CURRENT FINANCING ARRANGEMENT
 
THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES UNDERLYING OUR SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES AND WARRANTS THAT MAY BE AVAILABLE FOR FUTURE SALE AND THE SALE OF THESE SHARES MAY DEPRESS THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
 
As of December 31, 2006, we had 11,639,660 shares of common stock issued and outstanding, approximately $2,905,000 of convertible notes outstanding that may be converted into an estimated 4,612,000 shares of common stock and outstanding warrants and options to purchase 9,653,728 shares of common stock. All of the shares, including the shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible notes, may be sold without restriction upon effectiveness of a registration statement which includes those shares. The sale of these shares may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
 
THE ISSUANCE OF SHARES UPON CONVERSION OF THE CONVERTIBLE NOTES AND EXERCISE OF OUTSTANDING WARRANTS MAY CAUSE IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION TO OUR EXISTING STOCKHOLDERS.
 
The issuance of shares upon conversion of the secured convertible notes and exercise of warrants may result in substantial dilution to the interests of other stockholders since the selling stockholders may ultimately convert and sell the full amount issuable on conversion. Although Motivated Minds or CAMOFI may not convert their secured convertible notes and/or exercise their warrants if such conversion or exercise would cause them to own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock, this restriction does not prevent Motivated Minds or CAMOFI from converting and/or exercising and selling some of their holdings, selling shares of common stock obtained and then converting further. In this way, Motivated Minds or CAMOFI could sell more than this limit while never holding more than this limit.
 
IF WE ARE REQUIRED FOR ANY REASON TO REPAY OUR OUTSTANDING SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES, WE WOULD BE REQUIRED TO DEPLETE OUR WORKING CAPITAL, IF AVAILABLE, OR RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS. OUR FAILURE TO REPAY THE SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES, IF REQUIRED, COULD RESULT IN LEGAL ACTION AGAINST US, WHICH COULD REQUIRE THE SALE OF SUBSTANTIAL ASSETS.
 
In February 28, 2006, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement for the sale of an aggregate of $3,500,000 principal amount of secured convertible notes. The secured convertible notes are due and payable, with 12% interest, three years from the date of issuance, unless sooner converted into shares of our common stock. In addition, any event of default such as our failure to repay the principal or interest when due, our failure to issue shares of common stock upon conversion by the holder, our failure to timely file a registration statement or have such registration statement declared effective, breach of any covenant, representation or warranty in the Securities Purchase Agreement or related convertible note, the assignment or appointment of a receiver to control a substantial part of our property or business, the filing of a money judgment, writ or similar process against our company in excess of $50,000, the commencement of a bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or liquidation proceeding against our company and the delisting of our common stock could require the early repayment of the secured convertible notes, including a default interest rate of 15% on the outstanding principal balance of the notes if the default is not cured with the specified grace period. If we were required to repay the secured convertible notes, we would be required to use our limited working capital and raise additional funds. If we were unable to repay the notes when required, the note holders could commence legal action against us and foreclose on all of our assets to recover the amounts due. Any such action would require us to curtail or cease operations.
 
8

 
IF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS UNDER THE SECURITIES PURCHASE AGREEMENT, SECURED CONVERTIBLE NOTES, WARRANTS, SECURITY AGREEMENT OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY SECURITY AGREEMENT, THE INVESTORS COULD TAKE POSSESSION OF ALL OUR GOODS, INVENTORY, CONTRACTUAL RIGHTS AND GENERAL INTANGIBLES, RECEIVABLES, DOCUMENTS, INSTRUMENTS, CHATTEL PAPER, AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
 
In connection with the Securities Purchase Agreements we entered into in February 2006, we executed a Security Agreement in favor of CAMOFI granting them a first priority security interest in all of our goods, inventory, contractual rights and general intangibles, receivables, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and intellectual property. The Security Agreement states that upon the occurrence of an event of default as defined in the Notes and pursuant to the Security Agreement, the Investors have the right to take possession of the collateral, to operate our business and the business of our subsidiaries using the collateral, and have the right to assign, sell, lease or otherwise dispose of and deliver all or any part of the collateral, at public or private sale or otherwise to satisfy our obligations under these agreements.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
We and our representatives may from time to time make written or oral statements that are "forward-looking," including statements contained in this prospectus and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, reports to our stockholders and news releases. All statements that express expectations, estimates, forecasts or projections are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Act. In addition, other written or oral statements which constitute forward-looking statements may be made by us or on our behalf. Words such as "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "plans," "believes," "seeks," "estimates," "projects," "forecasts," "may," "should," variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in or suggested by such forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Important factors on which such statements are based are assumptions concerning uncertainties, including but not limited to uncertainties associated with the following:
 
(a) volatility or decline of our stock price;
 
(b) potential fluctuation in quarterly results;
 
(c) our failure to earn revenues or profits;
 
(d) inadequate capital and barriers to raising the additional capital or to obtaining the financing needed to implement its business plans;
 
(e) inadequate capital to continue business;
 
(f) changes in demand for our products and services;
 
(g) rapid and significant changes in markets;
 
(h) litigation with or legal claims and allegations by outside parties;

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

OVERVIEW

We are engaged in acquiring, re-manufacturing and selling pre-owned Computer Numerically Controlled ("CNC") machine tools to manufacturing customers. We provide rebuilt, retrofit and remanufacturing services for numerous brands of machine tools.
 
We also manufacture original equipment CNC large turning lathes and attachments under the trade name Century Turn. CNC machines use commands from onboard computers to control the movements of cutting tools and rotation speeds of the parts being produced. Computer controls enable operators to program operations such as part rotation, tooling selection and tooling movement for specific parts and then store the programs in memory for future use. The machines are able to produce parts while left unattended. Because of this ability, as well as superior speed of operation, a CNC machine is able to produce the same amount of work as several manually controlled machines, as well as reduce the number of operators required; generating higher profits with less re-work and scrap. Since the introduction of CNC tooling machines, continual advances in computer control technology have allowed for easier programming and additional machine capabilities. A vertical turning machine permits the production of larger, heavier and more oddly shaped parts on a machine, which uses less floor space when compared to the traditional horizontal turning machine because the spindle and cam are aligned on a vertical plane, with the spindle on the bottom.

The primary industry segments in which our machines are utilized to make component parts are in aerospace, power generation turbines, military, component parts for the energy sector for natural gas and oil exploration, medical, aerospace and mining fields. We sell our products to customers in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
 
Over the last several years, we have designed and developed a large horizontal CNC turning lathe with productivity features new to the metalworking industry. We believe that a potential market for the Century Turn Lathe, in addition to the markets mentioned above, is aircraft landing gear.
 
10


We are also engaged in assembling sound-wall modules made from Quilite(R), a lightweight, graffiti resistant concrete alternative used in freeway sound barriers and in other sound absorbing structures and non-weight bearing applications where privacy or screening is necessary.
 
.PLAN OF OPERATIONS
 
Our earnings for the three months ended September 30, 2006 were negative as a result of an increase in cost of goods sold.
 
Our current strategy is to expand our customer sales base with our present line of machine products. Our growth strategy also includes strategic acquisitions in addition to growing the current business. Plans for expansion are funded through current working capital from ongoing sales and additional funds in the form of debt or equity. However, there is no guarantee that any capital raised will be sufficient to execute our business plan. To the extent that the capital raised is not sufficient, our business plan will be required to be substantially modified and our operations curtailed.
 
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
FISCAL YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2005 COMPARED TO DECEMBER 31, 2004.
 
Revenues. New Century generated revenues of $6,038,459 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, which was a 31% increase from $4,605,813 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. The increase is the result of an increase in sales based on better market conditions for New Century machines.
 
Gross Profit. There was a substantial increase in gross profit for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, of $2,171,956, due to the increased revenues from higher selling prices and a $739,310 decrease in cost of sales. The decrease in cost of sales is principally related to more efficient use of material and labor resources. Gross profit was $1,714,970, compared to a loss of $(456,986) from the corresponding period in 2004.
 
Net Income . Net income increased to $668,359 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 compared to a net loss of $1,423,359 for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. The increase in net income is primarily attributed to a $2,352,442 increase in operating income, the increase in revenues and the decrease in cost of sales.
 
Interest Expense. Interest expense for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2005 increased to $235,592, compared to $181,468 for the period ended December 31, 2004. The increase of 30% is primarily the result of $47,500 amortization of shares of common stock issued to a Note Payable holder as a consideration for agreement to extend the repayment of the note.
 
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2005.
 
Revenues. The Company generated revenues of $1,996,131 for the three months ended September 30, 2006, which was a $391,280 or a 24% increase from $1,604,851 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is the result of a growth in customer orders, based on an increased demand in the market for machine tools and on the capability to sell the Company’s product at higher contract amounts.
 
Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended September 30, 2006, was $368,900 or 18% of revenues, compared to $596,216, or 37% of revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2005, a 38% decrease. The decrease of gross profit is the result of increased cost of goods sold. The increase in cost is determined by an increase of direct labor expense and the cost of direct material used. Due to expected increase in customer orders, the Company expanded its labor force. A short period of time is required to adequately train new hires to become productive.

Operating Income. Operating loss for the three months ended September 30, 2006, was $(18,661) compared to an operating income of $347,625 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease of $366,286 or 105% in operating income is due to higher direct cost and $128,799 increase in general and administration expense. This increase was primarily due to increases in legal and accounting expenses and lower gross margins.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2006 was $514,302 compared with $63,369 for the three months ended September 30, 2005. The $450,933 increase in interest expense is due primarily to $291,667 amortization of beneficial conversion feature and discount on warrants associated with two convertible notes payable and amortization of deferred financing costs related to warrants and common stock granted to third parties in connection with the convertible notes financing.

Liquidated damages expense. The Company accrued $420,000 of liquidated damages during the quarter ended September 30, 2006 on $3.5 million convertible debt as a penalty for failure to have a registration statement declared effective as required by our previous financing. (See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).
 
11


Derivative liability expense. As of September 30, 2006, a decrease in fair value of the derivative liability associated with the warrants to purchase common stock, granted in connection with the $3.5 million convertible debenture, was $(834,285). The decrease in fair value was reversed to derivative liability expense (See Note 1 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2005.

Revenues. We generated revenues of $5,993,751 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, which was a $1,749,032 or a 41% increase from $4,244,719 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The increase is the result of an increase in customer orders, based on a better market for machine tools and on the capability to sell the Company’s product at higher contract amounts.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, was $1,578,860 or 26% of revenues, compared to $1,354,403, or 31% of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, a 17% increase. The increase of gross profit is the result of increased sales.
 
Operating Income. Operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, was $276,027 compared to operating income of $449,193 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The decrease of $173,166 or 39% in operating income is due to $229,303 increase in general and administration expense. This increase was primarily due to increases in legal and accounting expenses.

Interest Expense. Interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $1,560,740 compared with $182,654 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005. The $1,378,086 increase in interest expense is due primarily to $1,275,173 amortization of beneficial conversion feature and discount on warrants associated with two convertible notes payable and amortization of deferred financing costs related to warrants and common stock granted to third parties in connection with the convertible notes financing.

Liquidated damages expense. We accrued $582,500 liquidated damages during the nine month ended September 30, 2006 on $3.5 million convertible debt as a penalty for failure to have a registration statement declared effective as required by our previous financing. (See Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

Derivative liability expense. As of September 30, 2006, a decrease in fair value of the derivative liability associated with the warrants to purchase common stock, granted in connection with the $3.5 million convertible debenture, was $(869,047). The decrease in fair value was reversed to derivative liability expense (See Note 1).

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES

The net cash increase of the Company during the nine months ended September 30, 2006 was $60,344. The increase is due to $1,670,874 net cash provided by financing activities offset by $1,590,530 net cash used in operating activities and $20,000 net cash used in investing activities used to acquire new equipment. Currently, the Company’s management attracted additional funding in the form of subordinated debt. However, there is no guarantee that the capital raised will be sufficient to execute its business plan. To the extent that the capital raised is not sufficient, the Company's business plan will be required to be substantially modified and its operations curtailed.

The Company is currently improving its liquidity by the following actions:

 
·
The Company continues to implement plans to increase revenues.
     
 
·
The Company continues its program for selling inventory that has been produced or is currently in production.
     
 
·
The Company continues to implement plans to further reduce operating costs by improved process control and greater productivity.
     
 
·
The Company is continually seeking investment capital through the public markets.

However, there is no guarantee that any of these strategies will enable us to meet our financial obligations for the foreseeable future.
 
INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES
 
We do not foresee any adverse effects on our earnings as a result of inflation or changing prices.
 
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
 
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements, as defined in Regulation S-B Section 303.
 
GOING CONCERN
 
Our independent certified public accountants have stated in their report, that we have a working capital deficit, a significant accumulated deficit and are in default on certain notes payable. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. The amounts of assets and liabilities reported on our balance sheet and the amounts of revenues and expenses reported for each of our fiscal periods are affected by estimates and assumptions, which are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for revenue recognition, accounts receivable, doubtful accounts and inventories. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The following critical accounting policies are significantly affected by judgments, assumptions and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements:
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
Service revenues are billed and recognized in the period the services are rendered.
 
The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees and costs in accordance with EITF 00-10 "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." Such fees and costs incurred by the Company are immaterial to the operations of the Company.
 
In accordance with SFAS 48, "Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists," revenue is recorded net of an estimate of markdowns, price concessions and warranty costs. Such reserve is based on management's evaluation of historical experience, current industry trends and estimated costs.
 
Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 ("SAB 104"), "Revenue Recognition," outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Management believes that the Company's revenue recognition policy for services and product sales conforms to SAB 104. The Company recognizes revenue of long-term contracts pursuant to SOP 81-1.
 
METHOD OF ACCOUNTING FOR LONG-TERM CONTRACTS
 
We use the percentage-of-completion method of accounting to account for long-term contracts and, therefore, takes into account the cost, estimated earnings and revenue to date on fixed-fee contracts not yet completed. The percentage-of-completion method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on the contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change within the near term.
 
The amount of revenue recognized at the statement date is the portion of the total contract price that the cost expended to date bears to the anticipated final cost, based on current estimates of cost to complete. It is not related to the progress billings to customers. Contract costs include all materials, direct labor, machinery, subcontract costs and allocations of indirect overhead.
 
Because long-term contracts may extend over a period of time, changes in job performance, changes in job conditions and revisions of estimates of cost and earnings during the course of the work are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts that require the revision become known. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Contracts that are substantially complete are considered closed for consolidated financial statement purposes. Revenue earned on contracts in progress in excess of billings (under billings) is classified as a current asset. Amounts billed in excess of revenue earned (overbillings) are classified as a current liability.
 
CLASSIFICATION OF WARRANT OBLIGATION
 
In connection with the issuance of the 12% Senior Secured Convertible Notes (See Note 1 of the Company's financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2006), the Company had an obligation to file a registration statement covering the resale of 125% of the Registrable Securities, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement. The obligation to file the registration statement met the criteria of an embedded derivative to be bifurcated pursuant to SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended. Under this transaction, the Company was obligated to register for resale the common shares underlying the warrants, and as a result, the embedded derivative associated with this warrant obligation did not meet the scope exception of paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No. 133. Specifically, at September 30, 2006, the Company did not have any uncommitted registered shares to settle the warrant obligation and accordingly, such obligation was classified as a liability (outside of stockholders' deficit) in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock." The classification of the warrant obligation is evaluated at each reporting date. Under the Amended Registration Rights Agreement executed on December 19, 2006, the Company’s obligation to file a registration statement covering the resale of 125% of the Registrable Securities requirement was eliminated, the Company’s obligation to pay liquidated damages was capped to a maximum of 10% of the aggregate remaining balance of holders subscription amounts, and the Registration Statement filing dates obligation and Effectiveness Date has been pushed forward. (See Exhibit 10.15). Therefore, the obligation to file the registration statement may no longer fall under the embedded derivative criteria pursuant to SFAS No. 133, as amended. Additionally, on December 21, 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued FASB Staff Position No. EITF No. 00-19-2, “Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements,” which could affect the accounting for both the warrants and related registration rights. This pronouncement is effective immediately for registration payment arrangements and the financial instruments subject to those arrangements that are entered into or modified subsequent to the date of issuance of the pronouncement. For registration payment arrangements and financial instruments subject to those arrangements that were entered into prior to the issuance of the pronouncement, the pronouncement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006, and interim periods within those fiscal years. For registration payment arrangements and financial instruments subject to those arrangements that were entered into prior to the issuance of the pronouncement and that continue to be outstanding at the beginning of the period of adoption, transition shall be achieved by reporting a change in accounting principle through a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, or other appropriate components of equity or net assets in the statement of financial position, as of the first interim period for the fiscal year in which the pronouncement is initially applied. The Company has not yet completed its evaluation of the effect of such pronouncement on its current and future consolidated financial statements, nor its effect the accounting for warrants and related registration rights described above.

ESTIMATES
 
Critical estimates made by management are, among others, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, realization of inventories, collectibility of contracts receivable and the estimating of costs for long-term construction contracts. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
 
OTHER SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Other significant accounting policies not involving the same level of measurement uncertainties as those discussed above, are nevertheless important to an understanding of the financial statements. The policies related to consolidation and loss contingencies require difficult judgments on complex matters that are often subject to multiple sources of authoritative guidance. Certain of these matters are among topics currently under reexamination by accounting standards setters and regulators. Although no specific conclusions reached by these standards setters appear likely to cause a material change in our accounting policies, outcomes cannot be predicted with confidence. Also see Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, which discusses accounting policies that must be selected by management when there are acceptable alternatives.
 
BUSINESS
 
SUMMARY
 
We are engaged in acquiring, re-manufacturing and selling pre-owned Computer Numerically Controlled ("CNC") machine tools to manufacturing customers. We provide rebuilt, retrofit and remanufacturing services for numerous brands of machine tools.
 
We also manufacture original equipment CNC large turning lathes and attachments under the tradename Century Turn. CNC machines use commands from onboard computers to control the movements of cutting tools and rotation speeds of the parts being produced. Computer controls enable operators to program operations such as part rotation, tooling selection and tooling movement for specific parts and then store the programs in memory for future use. The machines are able to produce parts while left unattended. Because of this ability, as well as superior speed of operation, a CNC machine is able to produce the same amount of work as several manually controlled machines, as well as reduce the number of operators required; generating higher profits with less re-work and scrap. Since the introduction of CNC tooling machines, continual advances in computer control technology have allowed for easier programming and additional machine capabilities. A vertical turning machine permits the production of larger, heavier and more oddly shaped parts on a machine, which uses less floor space when compared to the traditional horizontal turning machine because the spindle and cam are aligned on a vertical plane, with the spindle on the bottom.
 
The primary industry segments in which our machines are utilized to make component parts are in aerospace, power generation turbines, military, component parts for the energy sector for natural gas and oil exploration , medical, aerospace and mining fields.. We sell our products to customers in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
 
Over the last four years, we have designed and developed a large horizontal CNC turning lathe with productivity features new to the metalworking industry. We believe that a potential market for the Century Turn Lathe, in addition to the markets mentioned above, is aircraft landing gear.
 
We are also engaged in the assembling sound-wall modules made from Quilite(R). A lightweight, graffiti resistant concrete alternative used in freeway sound barriers and in other sound absorbing structures and non-weight bearing applications where privacy or screening is necessary.
 
Corporate History
 
14

 
On May 25, 2001, the Company entered into a merger with New Century Remanufacturing, Inc. Pursuant to the merger, all of the outstanding shares of New Century Remanufacturing, Inc., a California corporation, were exchanged for shares of the Company on a 1/833.33 basis. After the reverse merger, the Company changed its name to New Century Companies, Inc.
 
PRODUCTS
 
Quilite
 
We assemble, on a subcontractor basis, and ship proprietary, privacy/sound-wall modules from Quilite(R) throughout the U.S. and Canada. Quilite(R) is a material that is lighter than standard concrete, graffiti-resistant, available in 16x16 inch blocks with superior sound blocking capability. This material has been used in a number of noise-blocking applications, including airports, community pools, road barriers, residential surroundings, electrical transformer shelters, and others. Quilite(R) can also be used in non-weight bearing applications where privacy or screening is necessary. These include guarded-gate residential communities barriers at sports stadiums and privacy screens on highway medians to prevent driver distraction from oncoming traffic and rubbernecking due to accidents.
 
Remanufactured Machines
 
Our machine tools services are provided to a variety of customers, where the machine remanufacturing typically consists of replacing all components (CASTINGS), realigning the machine, adding updated CNC capability, and electrical and mechanical enhancements. Machines, which create circular products, are all within the scope' of our machines' capabilities. Our machines (Horizontal Turning Lathes, Vertical Turning Lathes, Vertical Boring Mills, and Horizontal Boring Mills etc.) are used to manufacture jet-engine components; airplane landing gear parts; power generation equipment; oil and gas production components; construction materials; casks that store nuclear materials; and bearings for windmills turrets guns, or torpedo tubes in submarines and ship vessels and countless other parts.
 
The machines take raw steel, which in its natural shape needs to be refined into a specific round part, and by utilizing a computer-directed tool, shapes the steel into very precise measurements. Once completed within two to four months, a remanufactured machine becomes a "like new," state-of-the-art machine, which often contains more iron ore and superior standards of strength than a new machine, at a price substantially less than that of a new machine. We pass these savings on to our customers, which include such manufacturers as General Electric Co., General Dynamics Corp., Siemens AG and Gardner Denver Inc.
 
New Machines (Century Turn)
 
We manufacture original equipment under our "Century Turn" brand name. Century Turn products include, but are not limited to lathes and vertical boring mills. These machines are used to machine products such as landing gear and machine valve bodies.
 
Growth Strategy
 
Our goal is to become a leading provider of high precision Computer Numerically Controlled turning centers through organic growth as well as through strategic acquisitions. In addition, we intend to engage in the production of Quilite(R).
 
We market our products and services primarily through direct sales and independent distributors throughout the U S Canada and Mexico. We also intend to advertise our products and services in the industrial trade publications, industry trade shows, and on the Internet. Our focus is also to increase the sales of our proprietary "new" horizontal boring mills and remanufactured vertical boring mills. Our "new" vertical boring mills are designed around our proprietary tooling changer that allows the machinist to utilize a wider range of lighter weight tooling heads increasing the efficiency precision and dependability of the machine and ultimately creating a superior and timely finished product
 
As a natural extension of our precision machine tool business, we plan to capitalize on numerous opportunities in the fragmented machining industry by implementing a (vertical integration) roll-up strategy, where we could merge with and/or acquire high precision large metal ring manufacturing companies This strategy is intended to attract the attention of the leading manufacturing companies by ramping up revenue and income. In addition to our organic growth strategies, we also plan to make tactical and accretive acquisitions.
 
MACHINE TOOL INDUSTRY
 
We manufacture both new and refurbished machines that are used across a variety of industries. These machines are sold to companies who produce various "round" products and parts in different but extremely precise measurements, depending on the industry. These products can be anything from large jet engines, casks that store nuclear materials, bearings for windmills, turrets, guns, or torpedo tubes in submarines and ship vessels, and more. The machines take raw steel, which in its natural shape needs to be refined into a specific round part, and by utilizing a computer-directed tool, shapes the steel into very precise measurements.
 
Many measurements must be so precise that when removing the metal, it must be round within 1/10,000 of an inch (approximately the equivalent of splitting an average hair 30 times). The machines must be able to repeatedly furnish these precise measurements for its products. For example, a jet engine must be precise to 1/10,000 of an inch due to the speed at which it operates. The engine, when in use, is going over 10,000 revolutions per minute (rpms). If the engine itself were not perfectly round, it would vibrate and could detach from the aircraft.

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, the assets of the Company, after the payment of liabilities and any distributions to the holders of outstanding shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, will be distributed pro rata to the holders of the Common Stock. The holders of the Common Stock do not have preemptive rights to subscribe for any securities of the Company and have no right to require the Company to redeem or purchase their shares.
 
Holders of Common Stock are entitled to share equally in dividends when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors of the Company, out of funds legally available therefor. The Company has not paid any cash dividends on its Common Stock, and it is unlikely that any such dividends will be declared in the foreseeable future.
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
The Company has authority to issue 15,075,000 shares of preferred stock, $1.00 par value and 75,000 shares of preferred stock, $25 par value. The preferred stock may be issued in series from time to time with such designation, rights, preferences and limitations as the Board of Directors of the Company may determine by resolution. The rights, preferences and limitations of separate series of preferred stock may differ with respect to such matters as may be determined by the Board of Directors, including, without limitation, the rate of dividends, method and nature of payment of dividends, terms of redemption, amounts payable on liquidation, sinking fund provisions (if any), conversion rights (if any), and voting rights. The potential exists, therefore, that preferred stock might be issued which would grant dividend preferences and liquidation preferences to preferred shareholders. Unless the nature of a particular transaction and applicable statutes require such approval, and subject to the required approval of the Series C Preferred Stockholders for issuances of preferred stock which has liquidation or dividend rights senior to theirs, the Board of Directors has the authority to issue these shares without shareholder approval. The issuance of preferred stock may have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without any further action by shareholders.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
Each Selling Stockholder and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest selling shares received from the named selling stockholder as a gift, partnership distribution or other non-sale-related transfer after the date of this prospectus (all of whom may be a selling stockholder) may sell the common stock offered by this prospectus from time to time on any stock exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the common stock is listed or quoted at the time of sale, in the over-the-counter market, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, at fixed prices that may be changed, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at prices otherwise negotiated. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. A Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling shares:
 
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits Purchaser;
 
 
·
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
 
 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
 
 
·
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
 
 
·
privately negotiated transactions;
 
 
·
settlement of short sales entered into after the date of this prospectus;
 
 
·
broker-dealers may agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such shares at a stipulated price per share;
 
 
·
a combination of any such methods of sale;
 
 
·
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise; or
 
 
·
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
 
The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares under Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if available, rather than under this prospectus.
 
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated. Each Selling Stockholder does not expect these commissions and discounts relating to its sales of shares to exceed what is customary in the types of transactions involved.
 
In connection with the sale of our common stock or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the common stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell shares of our common stock short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the common stock to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or the creation of one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of shares offered by this prospectus, which shares such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
 
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the shares may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Each Selling Stockholder has informed us that it does not have any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Common Stock.
 
We are required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by us incident to the registration of the shares. We have agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
Because Selling Stockholders may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, they will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. In addition, any securities covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than under this prospectus. Each Selling Stockholder has advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriter or broker-dealer regarding the sale of the resale shares. There is no underwriter or coordinating broker acting in connection with the proposed sale of the resale shares by the Selling Stockholders.
 
23

 
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the shares may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume limitations by reason of Rule 144(e) under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the shares have been sold pursuant to the prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The resale shares will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the resale shares may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

AVAILABLE INFORMATION
 
We have filed a registration statement on Form SB-2 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the shares of common stock being offered by this prospectus, and reference is made to such registration statement. This prospectus constitutes the prospectus of our company filed as part of the registration statement, and it does not contain all information in the registration statement, as certain portions have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that require us to file reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such reports, proxy statements and other information may be inspected at public reference facilities of the SEC at 100 F Street N.E., Washington D.C. 20549. Copies of such material can be obtained from the Public Reference Section of the SEC at Judiciary Plaza, 450 Fifth Street N.W., Washington, D.C. 20549 at prescribed rates. The public could obtain information on the operation of the public reference room by calling the Securities and Exchange Commission at 1-800-SEC-0330. Because we file documents electronically with the SEC, you may also obtain this information by visiting the SEC's Internet website at http://www.sec.gov.
 
INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES
 
Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated, provide to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, that our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision of our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers. Our By Laws also provide that the Board of Directors may also authorize us to indemnify our employees or agents, and to advance the reasonable expenses of such persons, to the same extent, following the same determinations and upon the same conditions as are required for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to our directors and officers. As of the date of this Registration Statement, the Board of Directors has not extended indemnification rights to persons other than directors and officers.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
New Century Companies, Inc. and Subsidiary
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of New Century Companies, Inc. and Subsidiary (the "Company") as of December 31, 2005, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our 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 New Century Companies, Inc. and Subsidiary as of December 31, 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2005 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 negative working capital of approximately $2,083,000, an accumulated deficit of approximately $6,959,000 and is in default on certain notes payable. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding these matters are also described in Note 1. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2005
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS
 
New Century Companies, Inc. and Subsidiary (collectively, the “Company”), a California corporation, was incorporated March 1996 and is located in Southern California. The Company provides after-market services, including rebuilding, retrofitting and remanufacturing of metal cutting machinery.
 
The Company currently sells its services by direct sales and through a network of machinery dealers across the United States. Its customers are generally medium to large sized manufacturing companies in various industries where metal cutting is an integral part of their businesses. The Company grants credit to its customers who are predominately located in the western United States.
 
The Company trades on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board under the symbol “NCNC.OB.”
 
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
 
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Century Companies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, New Century Remanufacturing (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
GOING CONCERN
 
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of December 31, 2005, the Company has negative working capital of approximately $2,083,000, an accumulated deficit of approximately $6,959,000 and is in default on certain notes payable. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company intends to fund operations through anticipated increased sales and debt and equity financing arrangements which management believes may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the year ending December 31, 2006. Therefore, the Company will be required to seek additional funds to finance its long-term operations. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.
 
In response to these problems, management has taken the following actions:
 
 
·
The Company continues its aggressive program for selling inventory.
 
 
·
The Company continues to implement plans to further reduce operating costs.
 
 
·
The Company is seeking investment capital through the public and private markets (see Note 10).
 
The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to recoverability and classification of assets carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NEW CENTURY COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2005
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
GOING CONCERN (CONTINUED)
 
During 2004 and 2005, management settled with several vendors and was able to obtain a fifty percent reduction in the amounts due to those specific vendors. Additionally, the Company converted certain notes payable to common stock during December 2005 resulting in approximately $216,000 of credits to earnings (see Note 5). As a result, the accompanying consolidated statements of operations include a gain on forgiveness of accounts and notes payable totaling approximately $319,000 and $544,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The effect on basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share was $0.03 and $0.08 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
 
CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISKS
 
Cash is maintained at various financial institutions. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insures accounts at each financial institution for up to $100,000. At times, cash may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit of $100,000. The Company had no uninsured bank balances at December 31, 2005.
 
The Company sells products to customers throughout the United States. The Company’s ability to collect receivables is affected by economic fluctuations in the geographic areas served by the Company. Although the Company does not obtain collateral with which to secure its contracts receivable, management periodically reviews contracts receivable and assesses the financial strength of its customers and, as a consequence, believes that the receivable credit risk exposure could, at times, be material to the financial statements.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2004, sales to two customers approximated 19% of net sales. No single customer net sales were more than 10% for the year ended December 31, 2005. Management reviews the collectibility of contract receivables periodically and believes no allowance for losses was needed at December 31, 2005.
 
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
 
The Company operates in an industry that is subject to intense competition. The Company’s operations are subject to significant risks and uncertainties including financial, operational, technological and other risks associated with operating a business including the potential risk of business failure.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2005
 
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management are, among others, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, realization of inventories, collectibility of contracts receivable and the estimation of costs for long-term construction contracts. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
 
The Company considers all highly liquid fixed income investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of acquisition, to be cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2005.
 
INVENTORIES
 
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Inventories represent cost of work in process on units not yet under contract. Cost includes all direct material and labor, machinery, subcontractors and allocations of indirect overhead. Net realizable value is based on management’s forecast for sales of the Company’s products or services in the ensuing years. The industry in which the Company operates is characterized by technological advancement and change. Should demand for the Company’s products prove to be significantly less than anticipated, the ultimate realizable value of the Company’s inventories could be substantially less than the amount shown in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. At December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had inventory reserves approximating $418,000 and $486,000, respectively.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets ranging from three to five years. Equipment under capital lease obligations are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated useful life or the term of the lease. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Significant renewals and betterments are capitalized. At the time of retirement or other disposition of property and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
The Company accounts for long-lived asset impairments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (“SFAS No. 144”). SFAS No. 144 requires a three-step approach for recognizing and measuring the impairment of assets to be held and used. The Company recognizes impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. The impairment loss is measured by comparing the fair value of the asset to its carrying amount. Fair value is estimated based on discounted future cash flows. Assets to be sold must be stated at the lower of the assets’ carrying amount or fair value and depreciation is no longer recognized. The Company believes that no impairment of property and equipment exists at December 31, 2005.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
The Company’s revenues consist of contracts with vendors. The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of accounting to account for long-term contracts and, therefore, takes into account the cost, estimated earnings and revenue to date on fixed-fee contracts not yet completed. The percentage-of-completion method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on the contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used will change within the near term.
 
In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) issued Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 101, “Revenue Recognition,” as amended and superseded by SAB No. 104, which outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. Management believes that the Company’s revenue recognition policy conforms to SAB No. 104. The Company recognizes revenue of contracts pursuant to SOP 81-1.
 
The amount of revenue recognized at the statement date is the portion of the total contract price that the cost expended to date bears to the anticipated final cost, based on current estimates of cost to complete. It is not related to the progress billings to customers. Contract costs include all materials, direct labor, machinery, subcontract costs and allocations of indirect overhead.
 
Because contracts may extend over a period of time, changes in job performance, changes in job conditions and revisions of estimates of cost and earnings during the course of the work are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts that require the revision become known. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements.
 
Contracts that are substantially complete are considered closed for consolidated financial statement purposes. Costs incurred and revenue earned on contracts in progress in excess of billings (under billings) is classified as a current asset. Amounts billed in excess of costs and revenue earned (over billings) are classified as a current liability.

REVENUE RECOGNITION (CONTINUED)
 
The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees and costs in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-10 “Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs.” Such fees and costs incurred by the Company are immaterial to the operations of the Company.
 
In accordance with SFAS 48, “Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists,” revenue is recorded net of an estimate of markdowns, price concessions and warranty costs. Such reserve is based on management’s evaluation of historical experience, current industry trends and estimated costs.
 
WARRANTY
 
The Company provides a warranty on certain products sold. Estimated future warranty obligations related to certain products and services are provided by charges to operations in the period in which the related revenue is recognized. At December 31, 2005, the warranty obligation was immaterial to the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
 
ADVERTISING
 
The Company expenses the cost of advertising when incurred as selling expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Advertising expenses were approximately nil and $84,000 for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
 
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
 
INCOME TAXES
 
Under SFAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. A valuation allowance is provided for significant deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that such assets will not be recovered.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
BASIC AND DILUTED INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE
 
Under SFAS 128, “Earnings Per Share,” basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive (under the treasury stock method, there were 650,000 and 179,000 additional potential common shares at December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively).
 
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
SFAS 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of general-purpose financial statements. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company had no items of comprehensive income.
 
SEGMENTS OF BUSINESS
 
SFAS 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” changes the way public companies report information about segments of their business in their quarterly reports issued to stockholders. It also requires entity-wide disclosures about the products and services an entity provides, the material countries in which it holds assets and reports revenues and its major customers. The Company currently operates in one segment.
 
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
 
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to employees using the intrinsic value based method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25 (“APB 25”), “Accounting for Stock issued to Employees.” Under the intrinsic value based method, compensation expense is the excess, if any, of the fair value of the stock at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense, if any, is recognized over the applicable service period, which is usually the vesting period.
 
SFAS 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” if fully adopted, changes the method of accounting for employee stock-based compensation plans to the fair value based method. For stock options and warrants, fair value is determined using an option pricing model that takes into account the stock price at the grant date, the exercise price, the expected life of the option or warrant, stock volatility and the annual rate of quarterly dividends. Compensation expense, if any, is recognized over the applicable service period, which is usually the vesting period.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
STOCK BASED COMPENSATION (CONTINUED)
 
The adoption of the accounting methodology of SFAS 123 is optional and the Company has elected to continue accounting for stock-based compensation issued to employees using APB 25; however, pro forma disclosures, as the Company adopted the cost recognition requirement under SFAS 123, are required to be presented (see below). For stock-based compensation issued to non-employees, the Company uses the fair value method of accounting under the provisions of SFAS 123.
 
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 44 (“FIN 44”), “Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation, an Interpretation of APB 25” clarifies the application of APB 25 for (a) the definition of employee for purpose of applying APB 25, (b) the criteria for determining whether a plan qualifies as a non compensatory plan, (c) the accounting consequence for various modifications to the terms of a previously fixed stock option or award and (d) the accounting for an exchange of stock compensation awards in a business combination. Management believes that the Company accounts for transactions involving stock compensation in accordance with FIN 44.
 
SFAS 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 123,” provides alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, this statement amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 to require prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results.
 
At December 31, 2005, the Company has one stock-based employee compensation plan and one stock-based non-employee compensation plan, which are described more fully in Note 7. There was no employee stock-based compensation cost recognized in net income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Additionally, there was no unvested portion of previous grants for which the requisite service has not been rendered as of December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the Company had no pro forma expense when applying the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123, as amended, to stock-based employee compensation. However, the above pro forma effects of applying SFAS 123 are not necessarily representative of the impact on reported net income (loss) for future years (see below).
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123-R, “Share-Based Payments,” as subsequently interpreted by SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, “Share-Based Payments,” which replaces SFAS No. 123, and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. As originally issued, SFAS 123 established as preferable a fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payment transactions with employees. However, that pronouncement permitted entities to continue applying the intrinsic-value-based model of APB Opinion No. 25, provided that the financial statements disclosed the pro forma net income or loss based on the fair-value method. The Company will be required to apply SFAS 123-R as of January 1, 2006. Thus, the Company’s financial statements will reflect an expense for (a) all share-based compensation arrangements granted beginning January 1, 2006 and for any such arrangements that are modified, cancelled, or repurchased after that date, and (b) the portion of previous share-based awards for which the requisite service has not been rendered as of that date, based on the grant-date estimated fair value of those awards.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
The Company follows SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (as intepreted by EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued To Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services” ) to account for transactions involving services provided by third parties where the Company issues equity instruments as part of the total consideration.
 
Pursuant to paragraph 8 of SFAS No. 123, the Company accounts for such transactions using the fair value of the consideration received (i.e. the value of the goods or services) or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company applies EITF 96-18, in transactions, when the value of the goods and/or services are not readily determinable and (1) the fair value of the equity instruments is more reliably measurable and (2) the counterparty receives equity instruments in full or partial settlement of the transactions, using the following methodology:
 
(a) For transactions where goods have already been delivered or services rendered, the equity instruments are issued on or about the date the performance is complete (and valued on the date of issuance).
 
(b) For transactions where the instruments are issued on a fully vested, non-forfeitable basis, the equity instruments are valued on or about the date of the contract.
 
(c) For any transactions not meeting the criteria in (a) or (b) above, the Company re-measures the consideration at each reporting date based on its then current stock value.
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
SFAS 107, “Disclosures About Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments when it is practicable to estimate that value. The carrying amount of the Company’s cash (bank overdraft), contracts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and notes payable approximates their estimated fair values because related interest rates offered to the Company approximate current offered rates. The fair value of the notes receivable from stockholders are not determinable as these transactions are with related parties.
 
SIGNIFICANT RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets, an amendment of APB Opinion 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions”. The amendments made by SFAS No. 153 are based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured using the estimated fair value of the assets exchanged. SFAS No. 153 eliminates the narrow exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a broader exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has “commercial substance” if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the transaction. This pronouncement is effective for nonmonetary exchanges in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

SIGNIFICANT RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, “Accounting Changes and Error Corrections,” which replaces APB Opinion No. 20, “Accounting Changes” and FASB Statement No. 3, “Reporting Accounting Changes in Interim Financial Statements.” This pronouncement applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle, and revises the requirements for accounting for and reporting a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 requires retrospective application to prior periods’ financial statements of a voluntary change in accounting principle, unless it is impracticable to do so. This pronouncement also requires that a change in the method of depreciation, amortization, or depletion for long-lived, non-financial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate that is affected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS No. 154 retains many provisions of APB Opinion No. 20 without change, including those related to reporting a change in accounting estimate, a change in the reporting entity, and correction of an error. The pronouncement also carries forward the provisions of FASB No. 3 which govern reporting accounting changes in interim financial statements. SFAS No. 154 is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Statement does not change the transition provisions of any existing accounting pronouncements, including those that are in a transition phase as of the effective date of SFAS No. 154. The adoption of this pronouncement is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s future consolidated financial statements.
 
In February 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 155 entitled “Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments,” an amendment of SFAS No. 133 (“Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”) and SFAS No. 140 (“Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities”). In this context, a hybrid financial instrument refers to certain derivatives embedded in other financial instruments. SFAS No. 155 permits fair value re-measurement of any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 155 also establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets in order to identify interests that are either freestanding derivatives or “hybrids” which contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation. In addition, SFAS No. 155 clarifies which interest/principal strips are subject to SFAS No. 133, and provides that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative. When SFAS No. 155 is adopted, any difference between the total carrying amount of the components of a bifurcated hybrid financial instrument and the fair value of the combined “hybrid” must be recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment of beginning deficit/retained earnings.

At December 31, 2004, the Company had $206,000 accrued as an estimated legal settlement for a dispute with a former customer who had purchased a machine during 2001. Such claim was settled in December 2005. The settlement required the former customer to return the machine to the Company and the Company to pay $275,000 to the former customer. The Company decided to utilize the machine to manufacture materials used in its production. As a result, the Company recorded the $275,000 cost of the machine (which management believes equals the fair value) as machinery and equipment and recorded a corresponding credit (reduction) to selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
As of December 31, 2005, the Company had loans to two stockholders approximating $506,000, including accrued interest. The loans accrue interest at 6% and are due on demand. The Company has included the notes receivable from stockholders in stockholders’ equity (deficit) as such amounts have not been repaid during 2005 or 2004. For each of the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, total interest income from notes receivable from stockholders approximated $20,000.
 
5. NOTES PAYABLE
 
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company entered into an unsecured note payable (“Note A”) with a third party for $250,000. Note A accrues interest at a fixed rate of 18% per annum and matured in December 2003, as amended. Note A is personally guaranteed by a stockholder and was in default at December 31, 2004. At December 31, 2004, the total outstanding principal balance on Note A was $250,000. In December 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with the note holder to settle the entire principal balance of $250,000 plus accrued interest of approximately $125,000 in exchange for 400,000 shares of restricted common stock. As a result of this conversion and final settlement, the Company recorded a gain on forgiveness of notes payable totaling approximately $127,000.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company entered into a note payable (“Note B”) with a third party for $215,000. Note B accrues interest at a fixed rate of 15% per annum and matured in March 2002. Note B is secured by certain assets of the Company, as defined, and was in default at December 31, 2004. During 2005, the Company and the note holder executed a mutual agreement to fully settle the debt whereby by the Company agreed to make fifteen monthly installments of $12,000 (totaling $180,000) beginning January 2006 and to issue 100,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $62,000 (estimated based on the market price of the stock on the date of the agreement) to the holder. Accrued interest on the note totaled approximately $116,000 on the date of the transaction. As a result of the effective reduction in principal balance of $35,000, the forgiveness of approximately $116,000 of accrued interest and the issuance of restricted common stock valued at $62,000, the Company recorded a gain on forgiveness of notes payable totaling approximately $89,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005.
 
In January 2003, the Company entered into a note payable agreement (“Note C”) with two individuals in the amount of $500,000 with an interest rate of 11% per annum, which matured in April 2003. Note C is secured by certain assets of the Company. At December 31, 2005, the total outstanding principal balance on Note C was $500,000 and accrued interest totaled approximately $172,000.
 
In December 2002, the Company entered into a note payable agreement (“Note D”) with two individuals in the amount of $250,000 with an interest rate of 11% per annum, which matured in February 2003. Note D is secured by certain assets of the Company. At December 31, 2005, the total outstanding principal balance on Note C was $250,000 and accrued interest totaled approximately $104,000.

5. NOTES PAYABLE (continued)
 
In April, 2005, the Company and the note holders of Notes C and D (the “Noteholder”) executed a mutual agreement (the “Extension Agreement”) whereby the Noteholder agreed not to foreclose on the security interest of the two notes payable, before the earlier of a funding or August 13, 2005. As consideration to effectively extend the due date of the two notes until August 13, 2005, the Company issued 250,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock to the Noteholder. Additionally, the Extension Agreement required the Company to register the shares by August 13, 2005, or it would need to pay penalties of 1,000 additional shares being issued for each day of delay up to thirty days and 2,500 additional shares for each day thereafter. The estimated fair value of the 250,000 shares (based on the trading price of the Company’s stock on the date of issuance) totaling $47,500 was recorded on the date of issuance as a debt discount against the face value of the notes and was amortized to interest expense over the extension period in accordance with EITF 96-19, “Debtor’s Accounting for a Modification or Exchange of Debt Instruments.” Subsequently, the Noteholder waived its right to the penalty shares and has not attempted to foreclose on the notes. Such notes are in default at December 31, 2005.
 
During November 2004, the Company borrowed $80,816 on two notes payable (“Note E”) to one individual. Note E is unsecured, matured in January 2005, has an interest rates of 6% and is currently in default. At December 31, 2005 the total outstanding principal balance on Note E was approximately $81,000 and accrued interest totaled approximately $6,000.

The valuation allowance decreased by $267,000 and increased by $533,000 during the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively. The current provision for income taxes for the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 is not significant and due primarily to certain state taxes.
 
At December 31, 2005, the Company had net tax operating loss carryforwards of approximately $10.4 million and $7.2 million available to offset future taxable federal and state income, respectively. If not utilized to offset future taxable income, the federal and state carryforwards will expire in various years through 2025 and 2015, respectively. In the event the Company were to experience a greater than 50% change in ownership as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the utilization of the Company’s tax net operating loss carryforwards could be severely restricted.

PREFERRED STOCK
 
The Company has authorized 15,000,000 shares of cumulative, convertible Series B Preferred Stock (“Series B”) with a par value of $1 per share. The Series B has a mandatory cumulative dividend of $1.25 per share, which is payable on a semi-annual basis, and convertible into 1.67 shares of the Company’s common stock, does not have any voting rights, and has liquidation preference equal to $25 per share before any payment or distribution shall be made on common stock. As of December 31, 2001, in accordance with the conversion terms of the Series B, 95,023 shares of the common stock remained un-issued and committed, which the Company has reclassified to common stock during the year ended December 31, 2002 because the stock had constructively been issued.
 
In March 2002, the Board of Directors authorized 75,000 shares of 5% cumulative, convertible Series C Preferred Stock (“Series C”) with a par value of $1 per share. The Series C has a mandatory cumulative dividend of $1.25 per share, which is payable on a semi-annual basis in June and December each year to holders of record on November 30 and May 31, does not have any voting rights and has liquidation preferences, as defined. Each share of Series C is convertible at the option of the holder into 16.667 shares of the Company’s common stock.
 
During the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, the Company issued 530,001 and 47,000 shares of restricted common stock, respectively, upon conversion of 31,800 and 2,820 shares of Series C, respectively, at a conversion rate of 16.667-to-1.
 
At December 31, 2005, the Company had a total of 28,980 shares of Series C issued and outstanding, with accumulated dividends totaling approximately $463,000, which is included in dividends payable in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company issued a Private Placement Memorandum (“PPM”) in which the Company offered to eligible investors, as defined, a maximum of 30,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock (“Series D”), with a required minimum offering of 1,000 shares of Series D to be sold at $25 per share. During the year ended December 31, 2004 and pursuant to the PPM, the Company issued 23,640 shares of Series D to eligible investors for proceeds totaling $521,000, net of $30,000 paid to the broker/dealer and $40,000 of accounts payable which were exchanged for shares. Such offering costs were included as an offset to additional paid-in capital in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Since the related conversion rate is 50:1, the effective conversion rate of $0.50 resulted in a deemed dividend of $153,660, which was included in accumulated deficit. The deemed dividend is also reflected as an increase in the net loss attributable to common shareholders for 2004 (see Note 8). Additionally, the broker/dealer was granted Three-Year Placement Warrants, as defined in the PPM, with a cashless exercise feature to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at prices ranging from $0.50 to $1.00. No expense was recorded related to the granting of such warrants as they were considered an offering cost. The warrants vested immediately and expire in February 2007.

COMMON STOCK
 
During the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company received a subscription receivable of $87,500 from a member of the Board of Directors in exchange for shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. The subscription receivable bears interest at an annual rate of 6%. Principal and any unpaid interest were due on October 6, 2001. As of December 31, 2005, the subscription receivable remains unpaid.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company received two subscriptions receivable totaling $375,000 in exchange for 250,000 restricted shares of common stock. The receivables bear interest at an annual rate of 5%. Principal and any unpaid interest on both subscriptions receivable were due on August 22, 2003, and are in default as of December 31, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the subscription receivable remains unpaid. The related accrued interest receivable and interest income are insignificant to the consolidated financial statements.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company issued 350,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $165,000 (estimated based on the market price on the dates of grant) to three consultants for services rendered in relation to corporate finance, investor relations and management services that were substantially completed during 2004. Approximately $157,000 was recorded as consulting expense during the year ended December 31, 2004 and approximately $8,000 remained unamortized as deferred consulting fees at December 31, 2004, which was recorded as an offset to stockholders equity (deficit). Such unamortized amount was entirely amortized to consulting expense during the year ended December 31, 2005.
 
In April 2005, the Company issued 250,000 shares of restricted common stock, valued at $47,500 (estimated based on the market price on the dates of grant) to one of its creditors (see Note 5) as consideration to extend the maturity date of certain notes payable.
 
On April 25, 2005 the Company issued 300,000 shares of restricted common stock to a holder of the Company’s Series D under a verbal agreement as the sole consideration and remedy for failure to register the common shares underlying the Series D. Accordingly, the Company expensed the fair value of the 300,000 common shares (based on the trading price of the Company’s stock on such date of issuance) totaling $90,000. The extent of the registration rights of the Series D was that the Company would use its best efforts to file a registration statement underlying the conversion shares, however, the Company’s board of directors decided to issue the penalty shares as a good faith measure to maintain a good relationship with the investor.
 
In April 2005, the Company issued 100,000 shares of restricted common stock to one of its former customers as an inducement and partial legal settlement for a pending claim related to the sale of one its machines. The former customer then refused to accept the shares and the Company then granted the shares to the attorney which was representing the Company in the lawsuit. Accordingly, the Company immediately expensed the fair value of such common stock totaling $20,000 (estimated based on the trading price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant) and the attorney agreed to accept the shares as payment for outstanding fees of such amount. At December 31, 2004, the Company had $206,000 accrued as an estimated legal settlement for this dispute. Such claim was settled in December 2005. The settlement required the former customer to return the machine to the Company and the Company to pay $275,000 to the former customer. The Company decided to utilize the machine to manufacture materials used in its production. As a result, the Company recorded the $275,000 cost of the machine (which management believes equals the fair value) as machinery and equipment and recorded a corresponding credit (reduction) to selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2005.

In December 2005, The Company issued 75,000 shares of restricted common stock to its securities counsel as payment for past due legal fees totaling $46,500, which equaled the fair value of the stock on the date of settlement (estimated based on the trading price of the Company’s stock on the date of settlement).
 
During 2005, the Company issued 1,050,000 shares of restricted common stock under several consulting contracts for management consulting and investor relations. The contracts do not contain a “performance commitment” as defined in EITF 96-18 and, therefore, a measurement date does not exist until the services are complete. As a result, the fair value of each stock issuance (estimated based on the trading price of the Company’s stock on the dates of the respective agreements) was recorded as deferred consulting fees on the initial measurement dates and subsequently adjusted (based on the then-current fair value at each reporting date) through deferred consulting fees and is being amortized to consulting expense over the periods of service until such time the respective agreements are complete. The terms of the agreements range from three months to one year. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the marked-to-market fair value of the 1,050,000 shares of common stock totaling $519,000 with amortization of the related deferred consulting fees totaling approximately $265,000 for the year ended December 31, 2005. At December 31, 2005, three of these contracts had not been completed and the remaining deferred consulting fees approximated $255,000.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF OPERATIONS

New Century Companies, Inc. and Subsidiary (collectively, the "Company"), a California corporation, was incorporated March 1996 and is located in Southern California. The Company provides after-market services, including rebuilding,retrofitting and remanufacturing of metal cutting machinery. Once completed, a remanufactured machine is "like new" with state-of-the-art computers, and the cost to the Company's customers is substantially less than the price of a new machine.

The Company currently sells its services by direct sales and through a network of machinery dealers across the United States. Its customers are generally medium to large sized manufacturing companies in various industries where metal cutting is an integral part of their businesses. The Company grants credit to its customers who are predominately located in the western United States.

The Company trades on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol "NCNC.OB".

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of New Century Companies, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, New Century Remanufacturing (collectively, the Company". All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") have been omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations; nevertheless, the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements and the notes hereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, accounting policies and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2005, filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly, in accordance with GAAP, the Company's financial position as of September 30, 2006, and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented, have been made. Such adjustments consist only of normal recurring adjustments. The results of operations for the nine moths ended September 30, 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

GOING CONCERN

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates, among other things, the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has negative working capital of $208,902 and an accumulated deficit of $7,704,934 at September 30, 2006, and had net cash used in operating activities of $1,590,530 for the nine months ended September 30, 2006. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about the

F-34

 
NEW CENTURY COMPANIES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For The Nine Months Ended September 30, 2006 And 2005
(Unaudited)

Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company funds operations through increased sales and debt and equity financing arrangements which management believes may be insufficient to fund its capital expenditures, working capital and other cash requirements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2006. Therefore, the Company will be required to seek additional funds to finance its long-term operations. The successful outcome of future activities cannot be determined at this time and there is no assurance that if achieved, the Company will have sufficient funds to execute its intended business plan or generate positive operating results.

In response to these problems, management has taken the following actions:

 
·
The Company continues its aggressive program for selling inventory.
     
 
·
The Company continues to implement plans to further reduce operating costs.
 
 
·
The Company is seeking investment capital through the public markets.

The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

INVENTORY

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined under the first-in, first-out method. Inventories represent cost of work in process on units not yet under contract. Cost includes all direct material and labor, machinery, subcontractors and allocations of indirect overhead.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company's revenues consist of contracts with vendors. The Company uses the percentage-of-completion method of accounting to account for long-term contracts and, therefore, takes into account the cost, estimated earnings and revenue to date on fixed-fee contracts not yet completed. The percentage-of-completion method is used because management considers total cost to be the best available measure of progress on the contracts. Because of inherent uncertainties in estimating costs, it is at least reasonably possible that the estimates used
will change within the near term.

Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 104, "Revenue Recognition" outlines the basic criteria that must be met to recognize revenue and provides guidance for presentation of revenue and for disclosure related to revenue recognition policies in financial statements filed with the SEC. Management believes that the Company's revenue recognition policy conforms to SAB No. 104. The Company recognizes revenue on contracts pursuant to SOP 81-1.

The amount of revenue recognized at the statement date is the portion of the total contract price that the cost expended to date bears to the anticipated final cost, based on current estimates of cost to complete. It is not related to the progress billings to customers. Contract costs include all materials, direct labor, machinery, subcontract costs and allocations of indirect overhead.

Because contracts may extend over a period of time, changes in job performance, changes in job conditions and revisions of estimates of cost and earnings during the course of the work are reflected in the accounting period in which the facts that require the revision become known. At the time a loss on a contract becomes known, the entire amount of the estimated ultimate loss is recognized in the consolidated financial statements.

Contracts that are substantially complete are considered closed for consolidated financial statement purposes. Costs incurred and revenue earned on contracts in progress in excess of billings (under billings) are classified as a current asset. Amounts billed in excess of costs and revenue earned (over billings) are classified as a current liability.

The Company accounts for shipping and handling fees and costs in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 00-10 "Accounting for Shipping and Handling Fees and Costs." Such fees and costs incurred by the Company are immaterial to the operations of the Company.
 
In accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 48,"Revenue Recognition when Right of Return Exists," revenue is recorded net of an estimate of markdowns, price concessions and warranty costs. Such reserve is based on management's evaluation of historical experience, current industry trends and estimated costs.

BASIC AND DILUTED LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

Under SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share," basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. There were 877,922 potentially dilutive and 13,372,330 potential common shares at September 30, 2006, which include common stock purchase warrants and shares underlying convertible preferred stock and convertible notes payable.

The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005:

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123-R,"Share-Based Payment," ("SFAS No. 123-R"). SFAS No. 123-R requires employee stock options and rights to purchase shares under stock participation plans to be accounted for under the fair value method and requires the use of an option pricing model for estimating fair value. Accordingly, share-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award. The Company previously accounted for awards granted under its equity incentive plan under the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations, and provided the required pro forma disclosures prescribed by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," as amended. The exercise price of options is generally equal to the market price of the Company's common stock (defined as the closing price as quoted on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board
administered by Nasdaq) on the date of grant. Accordingly, no share-based compensation was recognized in the financial statements prior to January 1, 2006.

Under the modified prospective method of adoption for SFAS No. 123-R, the compensation cost recognized by the Company beginning January 1, 2006 includes (a) compensation cost for all equity incentive awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of April 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and (b) compensation cost for all equity incentive awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123-R.

From time to time, the Company's Board of Directors grants common share purchase options or warrants to selected directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors in payment of goods or services provided by such persons on a stand-alone basis outside of any of the Company's formal stock plans. The terms of these grants are individually negotiated and generally expire within five years from the grant date.

Under the terms of the Company's 2000 Stock Option Plan, options to purchase an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock may be issued to officers, key employees and consultants of the Company. The exercise price of any option generally may not be less than the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. The term of each option generally may not be more than five years.

At September 30, 2006, the Company had 3,750,000 options available for future issuance under their equity compensation plans.

The effects of share-based compensation resulting from the application of SFAS No. 123-R to options granted outside of the Company's Stock Option Plan resulted in zero expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2006. Share-based compensation recognized as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R as well as pro forma disclosures according to the original provisions of SFAS No. 123 for periods prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123-R use the Black Scholes option pricing model for estimating fair value of options granted.

In accordance with SFAS No. 123-R, the Company's policy is to adjust share-based compensation on a quarterly basis for changes to the estimate of expected award forfeitures based on actual forfeiture experience. The effect of adjusting the forfeiture rate for all expense amortization after December 31, 2006 is recognized in the period the forfeiture estimate is changed. Since the Company had no unvested options during the nine month period ended September 30, 2006, the effect of forfeiture adjustments in the three and nine month periods was not applicable.

Pro forma information required under SFAS No. 123 for periods prior to 2006 as if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 to options granted under and outside of the Company's equity incentive plans was as follows:

Pro forma compensation expense reported in the above table is generally based on the vesting provisions in the related stock option grants. Since all options granted prior to January 1, 2005 had been completely vested prior to such date, there is no pro forma compensation expense to disclose for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, as reflected in the above table, nor any weighted average assumptions to disclose.

The expected volatility is based on the historical volatility. The expected life of options granted is based on the "simplified method" described in the SEC's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 due to changes in the vesting terms and contractual life of current option grants compared to the Company's historical grants.

The Company follows SFAS No. 123 (R) (as interpreted by EITF Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued To Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services") to account for transactions involving services provided by third parties where the Company issues equity instruments as part of the total consideration. Pursuant to paragraph 7 of SFAS No. 123 (R), the Company accounts for such transactions using the fair value of the consideration received (i.e. the value of the goods or services) or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The Company applies EITF Issue No. 96-18, in transactions, when the value of the goods and/or services are not readily determinable and (1) the fair value of the equity instruments is more reliably measurable and (2) the counterparty receives equity instruments in full or partial settlement of the transactions, using the following methodology:

a) For transactions where goods have already been delivered or services rendered, the equity instruments are issued on or about the date the performance is complete (and valued on the date of issuance).

b) For transactions where the instruments are issued on a fully vested, non-forfeitable basis, the equity instruments are valued on or about the date of the contract.

c) For any transactions not meeting the criteria in (a) or (b) above, the Company re-measures the consideration at each reporting date based on its then current stock value.

DEFERRED FINANCING COSTS

Direct costs of securing debt financing are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the straight-line method. When a loan is paid in full, any unamortized financing costs are removed from the related accounts and charged to operations. During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company amortized approximately $84,000.

STOCK PURCHASE WARRANTS ISSUED WITH NOTES PAYABLE

The Company granted warrants in connection with the issuance of certain notes payable. Under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 14, "Accounting for Convertible Debt and Debt Issued With Stock Purchase Warrants," the relative estimated fair value of such warrants represents a discount from the face amount of the notes payable. Such discounts are amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes.

BENEFICAL CONVERSION FEATURE OF CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

The convertible feature of certain notes payable provides for a rate of conversion that is below market value. Such feature is normally characterized as a "Beneficial Conversion Feature" ("BCF"). Pursuant to EITF Issue No. 98-5, "Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or Contingently Adjustable Conversion Ratio" and EITF No. 00-27, "Application of EITF Issue No. 98-5 To Certain Convertible Instruments," the estimated fair value of the BCF is recorded in the consolidated financial statements as a discount from the face amount of the notes. Such discounts are amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes.

CLASSIFICATION OF WARRANT OBLIGATION

In connection with the issuance of the 12% Senior Secured Convertible Notes (See Note 3), the Company has an obligation to file a registration statement covering the resale of 125% of the Registrable Securities, as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement. The obligation to file the registration statement meets the criteria of an embedded derivative to be bifurcated pursuant to SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended.
 
Under this transaction, the Company is obligated to register for resale the common shares underlying the warrants, and as a result, the embedded derivative associated with this warrant obligation does not meet the scope exception of paragraph 11(a) of SFAS No. 133. Specifically, at the commitment date, the Company did not have any uncommitted registered shares to settle the warrant obligation and accordingly, such obligation has been classified as a liability (outside of stockholders' equity) in accordance with EITF Issue No. 00-19, "Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially Settled in, a Company's Own Stock." The classification of the warrant obligation will be evaluated at each reporting date and as such, it will continue to be reported as a liability until such time all of the criteria necessary for equity classification have been met.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

Recent accounting pronouncements discussed in the notes to the December 31, 2005 financial statements filed previously with the Securities and Exchange Commission in Form 10-KSB that are required to be adopted during the year ending December 31, 2006 did not or will not have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

During the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company made cash payments of $116,667 to reduce the principal balance on one of its outstanding secured convertible notes payable. As of September 2006, the principal balance is approximately $3,383,000 which is presented net of debt discounts totaling approximately $564,000.

Also, during the three months ended September 30, 2006, the Company made cash payments of $150,000 to reduce the principal balance on one of its outstanding convertible notes payable. As of September 2006, the balance on such note is $150,000. The balance is due on October 16, 2006, and is currently in default.

4. EQUITY TRANSACTIONS

On July 25, 2006, in connection with the Motivated Minds convertible note dated February 15, 2006, the Company issued 45,000 restricted shares of common stock to Motivated Minds for extension of the maturity date of $150,000 of principal balance of the note until August 16, 2006, and the remaining principal balance of $150,000 of the note until October 16, 2006. The common stock was recorded at the estimated fair value of the common stock on the date of the transaction totaling approximately $23,000, which was recorded as interest expense for the quarter ended September 30, 2006.

In July 2006, the Company issued 100,000 shares of common stock valued at $41,000 (based on the market price of the shares) to a third party for consulting services under one month contract.

5. CONTINGENCIES

On February 28, 2006, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement ("the Note") with CAMOFI whereby CAMOFI agreed to purchase, up to $5,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 12% Senior Secured Convertible Notes, due February 28, 2009 (up to $3,500,000 to be purchased at the closing and up to an additional $1,500,000 to be purchased pursuant to an Additional Investment Right), secured by a first priority lien on all assets of the Company and its current and future subsidiaries (including a pledge of the shares of the Company's current and future Subsidiaries). The Note is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at a fixed price of $0.63 at any time at CAMOFI's option. Additionally, $1,500,000 of the $3,500,000 proceeds from the closing were placed into an escrow account, which was originally intended to be used for a potential private company business acquisition. Accordingly, such amount has been recorded as restricted cash in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2006. In connection with the Note, the Company issued 3,476,190 warrants at an exercise price of $0.63 to CAMOFI. The warrants vested and became fully exercisable on their issuance date. Based upon changed circumstances and the immediate need of the Company for the funds for general working capital purposes, the parties decided to release the funds held in escrow to the Company as follows: (a) $750,000 on July 10, 2006 and (b) $750,000 on August 4, 2006. The Company utilized the first $750,000 funds for general working capital purposes. The balance of $750,000 is restricted solely for payment of the principal balance of the Note.

CAMOFI has not exercised its $1,500,000 Additional Investment Right. Additionally, CAMOFI has certain registration rights for the common stock underlying both the warrants and the convertible debt. The related registration rights agreement includes financial penalties because the Company failed to meet the registration statement effectiveness deadline, which was June 28, 2006. Such penalties, which are 1.5% of the outstanding principal balance of the Note for the first 30 days and an additional 1.5% for each 30 day period thereafter, can be paid in common stock at the option of the Company.

As of September 30, 2006, the Company has accrued $582,500 for such estimated liquidated damages, which are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet. Of such amount, $43,500 was accrued during the three months ended March 31, 2006, $119,000 was accrued during the three months ended June 30, 2006, and $420,000 was accrued during the three month ended September 30, 2006, based on the estimate that the registration statement will become effective at the current year end. As a result of not meeting these deadlines, this condition may be deemed an "Event of Default" if not cured to the satisfaction of CAMOFI prior to the expiration of thirty days from the Event Date, as defined in the registration rights agreement, and could possibly allow CAMOFI to call the debt or seek other remedy at such time.

PART II
 
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
Our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated, provide to the fullest extent permitted by the corporate law of the State of Nevada, that our directors or officers shall not be personally liable to us or our shareholders for damages for breach of such director's or officer's fiduciary duty. The effect of this provision on our Articles of Incorporation, as amended and restated, is to eliminate our rights and our shareholders (through shareholders' derivative suits on behalf of our company) to recover damages against a director or officer for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer (including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior), except under certain situations defined by statute. We believe that the indemnification provisions in our Articles of Incorporation, as amended, are necessary to attract and retain qualified persons as directors and officers.
 
Our By Laws also provide that the Board of Directors may also authorize the Company to indemnify our employees or agents, and to advance the reasonable expenses of such persons, to the same extent, following the same determinations and upon the same conditions as are required for the indemnification of and advancement of expenses to our directors and officers. As of the date of this Registration Statement, the Board of Directors has not extended indemnification rights to persons other than directors and officers.

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
 
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to:
 
(1) File, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
 
(i) Include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
 
(ii) Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of the securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement, and
 
(iii) Include any additional or changed material information on the plan of distribution.
 
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of the securities offered, and the offering of the securities at that time to be the initial bona fide offering.
 
(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
 
(4) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
 
(5) For determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those securities.
 
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
 
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question 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.

Re:  New Century Companies, Inc.
  Registration Statement on Form SB-2

 
Ladies and Gentlemen:

The Company had previously filed a registration statement on Form SB-2, File No. 333-137412 (the “Prior Registration Statement”). On October 31, 2006, the Company withdrew the Prior Registration Statement.

We have set forth below the comments issued by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Staff”) by letter dated October 11, 2006. The Company has entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with CAMOFI Master LDC, one of the Selling Stockholders. Each comment, to the extent still applicable, is followed by the Company’s response.

General

1.
Given the nature arid size of the transaction being registered, advise the staff of the company’s basis for determining that the transaction is appropriately characterized as a transaction that is eligible to be made on a shelf basis under Rule 415(a)(l)(i) of the Securities Act.

Response:
 
In response to the Staff’s Comment, the Company and the Selling Stockholders have reduced the number of shares being registered to 4,235,000 shares or approximately 36% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company.
 
Based upon the number of shares the Company intends to include for resale in the registration statement, and the manner in which such shares will be issued and resold, we do not believe that the transaction being registered is an indirect public offering, either due to the nature or size of the transaction for the following reasons:


 
Transaction is a Sale of Secured Notes
 
The primary transaction between the Company and CAMOFI Master LDC, who is an accredited investor, was the sale of a senior secured convertible note in a transaction that satisfies the requirements of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company is obligated to repay the note in cash. Although CAMOFI generally has a right to convert the note into shares of common stock under certain circumstances, the note permits the Company to prepay in cash all or a portion of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest upon certain conditions being met. Accordingly, although it is likely that some or all of the Note will be repaid through the conversion to common stock, there is no assurance that any common stock will be issued to and resold by CAMOFI. Further, it is important to note that the investor bears a substantial amount of risk, which risk includes the fact that any ultimate proposed resale of the shares of common stock remains subject to numerous factors including, but not limited to, the amount of time for which their investment is at risk (which will depend, in part, upon the Company’s ability to have a registration statement declared effective by the Commission), and the ability to resell the securities (which will depend, in part, upon the market for the Company’s shares should the notes be repaid, in whole or in part, through the conversion to common stock).

Offering is not Akin to Offering by Company
 
Unlike a best efforts public offering on behalf of the Company, the Company will not receive any additional proceeds from the purchase and sale of the notes upon the effectiveness of the registration statement, regardless of when or if any shares are ultimately issued to or resold by CAMOFI. In addition, the decision to sell the registered shares rests solely with CAMOFI, not the Company, or any person or entity acting on behalf of the Company.

Selling Shareholders are not Affiliates
 
Finally, it should be noted that CAMOFI is not an affiliate of the Company, in that:

·
it has no ability directly or indirectly to control the actions of the Company either by contract or through management or exercise of voting rights;
·
it does not have any greater access than other shareholders to information about the Company, its operations or financial results; and
·
it is contractually restricted from owning more than 4.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock. It is well settled case law that such restrictions are legally effective to prevent the holder from being considered an affiliate of the issuer pursuant to the beneficial ownership rules set forth in Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Commission has always been a strong supporter of this position, See: Amicus Brf. of Sec. Exc. Comm., in Levy v. Southbrook Int’l., No. 00-7630. Within that Brief we note the discussion cited by the Commission at p.9-10, in reference to the district court case, “The court was confident that Section 16(b) “was not intended to reach this hypothetical investor” because such an interpretation “would extend the statute’s sweep beyond those with insider power and information”(emphasis added). Although the matter at hand does not relate to Section 16(b), the importance of the position that such holders do not possess insider control is equally applicable.

Conclusion
 
In light of the foregoing, we do not believe there is any indicia of affiliation between the Company and the selling stockholder, nor is there is any basis under which the selling stockholder in the subject offering can be considered an alter ego of the registrant. Rule 415 (a)(1)(i) clearly permits an offering of securities to be made on a continuous or delayed basis provided that the registration statement pertains only to securities which are to be offered or sold solely by or on behalf of a person or persons other than the registrant. The Commission has always permitted the use of Registration Statements on Form SB-2 for the purpose of conducting or completing an offering to be made on a continuous or delayed pursuant to Rule 415.

For the reasons set forth above, we do not believe there is a basis in current law to deny the registration of the shares of common stock underlying the debentures in subject offering, nor do we believe that the transaction being registered in the prospectus constitutes an indirect primary offering, but rather a secondary offering to be made on a resale basis by a bona fide selling stockholder, who bears the full economic burden of its investment.

Registration Statement Fee Table

2.
We note from footnote 4 to Schedule I to your response letter dated September 18, 2006 that you calculated the 1,627,512 shares underlying interest in the amount of $589,322 by dividing that interest amount by the interest conversion rate of $0.3621. We note, however, from your disclosure at the end of the second paragraph under “CAMOFI Private Placement” on page 3 of your registration statement that payment of interest on the note with your shares of common stock can only occur if, among other things, the closing price of your common stock is at least 115% of the conversion price of the CAMOFI Note, which is fixed at $0.63. As such, please tell us how you determined an interest conversion rate of $0.3621. Also, given that the principal amount of the note is $3,500,000, that the note was issued on February 28, 2006 and accrues interest at the rate of 12%, please show us how you calculated the $589,322 in interest.

3.
At this time, the Company is registering shares issuable upon conversion of the principal owed pursuant to the Note. We also note from Schedule I to your response letter dated September 18, 2006 that you are registering an additional 406,878 shares of common stock, in accordance with your registration rights agreement, representing an additional 25% of the shares that maybe issuable upon the conversion of the principal of the note and the payment of interest accrued thereon. It is not clear from your response, however, why compliance with the contractual obligations under your registration rights agreement provides a basis for a reasonable good faith estimate of the number of shares of common stock that will be issuable upon the conversion of the principal of the note and the payment of interest accrued thereon in the form of your common stock. Please revise your registration statement to register an amount of shares based on such reasonable good faith estimate. In addition, please provide support in your response letter for such number, including the specific calculations you performed and the justification for any assumptions you relied upon in making such calculations. For example, with respect to the shares issuable upon payment of the interest accrued on the note, please tell us your justification, such as recent stock price history and volatility, for the market price used in the calculation of the number of shares that may be issued for the payment of interest. Also, please explain why you need to register additional shares for the conversion of the principal amount of the note when the conversion price appears to be fixed.

We note your response to prior comment 5 as well as footnote 3 to Schedule I to your response letter dated September 18, 2006. Please provide the disclosure required by Item 701 of Regulation S-B with respect to the 75,000 shares issued to Motivated Minds as consideration for extending the due date of the note.
 
Response:
 
We have revised to include the required disclosure.

5.
We note your response to comment 3 of our letter dated August 24, 2006. Please expand your response to that comment to include a discussion of the effects the provisions of Section 4(d) of the note, filed as Exhibit 10.6 to your registration statement, have on the investor’s discretion as to whether to receive shares as an interest payment. If the investor does have discretion, by refusing to sell shares to come under contractual ownership caps or otherwise, the private placement of the shares related to interest is not yet complete and it is premature to register those shares for resale.
 
Response:
 
 
The Company is not registering any shares underlying interest payable to CAMOFI. The Company is registering shares that are issuable upon conversion of the principal amount of the convertible note issued to CAMOFI.
