ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OF ASSETS

ITEM 2.03 CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION

ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

On November 7, 2007, WiseBuys Stores, Inc. ("WiseBuys"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Seaway Valley Capital Corporation ("Seaway Valley"), purchased all of the outstanding capital stock of Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, a New York corporation ("Hacketts"). Hacketts, one of the nation's oldest retailers, with roots dating back to 1830, is a full line department store specializing in name brand merchandise and full service hardware. At the time of the acquisition, Hacketts had locations in five towns in upstate New York: Ogdensburg, Potsdam, Watertown, Massena and Canton. Each store features brand name clothing for men, women, and children, and a large selection of athletic, casual, and work footwear. Hacketts also carries domestics, home decor, gifts, seasonal merchandise and sporting goods. Hacketts full service hardware department features traditional hardware, tool, plumbing, paint and electrical departments.

In connection with the acquisition, WiseBuys will contribute all of its retail assets to Hacketts. Management intends to convert its five WiseBuys stores into the Hacketts model, close one Hacketts store, and operate all nine remaining stores under the Hacketts brand. After the store conversions and the closure, the Company will operate nine Hacketts locations - Canton, Gouverneur, Hamilton, Massena, Ogdensburg, Potsdam, Pulaski, Tupper Lake, and Watertown - all in New York.

The shares of Hacketts were purchased from Juliann Hackett Cliff, Patrick Hackett, Jr., and Norman V. Garrelts (the "Sellers"). Neither Seaway Valley nor WiseBuys had any prior relationship with any of the Sellers.

In exchange for the capital stock of Hacketts, WiseBuys paid a total of six million dollars ($6,000,000), as follows:

* $1,500,000 at closing;

* Promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $500,000 due 270 days after closing;

* Promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 due 365 days after closing

* Promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $500,000 due 450 days after closing; and

* Promissory notes in the aggregate amount of $2,500,000 that accrue interest over the first three years, then require payment in equal annual installments of accrued interest and principal over the following five years.

Each of the promissory notes has an interest rate of 8.0% and is personally guaranteed by Thomas Scozzafava, the Chief Executive Officer of Seaway Valley Capital Corporation. In addition, the notes due in 270, 365 and 450 days are secured by a pledge of the capital stock of Hacketts.

Also as part of the transaction, WiseBuys repaid certain Hacketts indebtedness of $493,609 held by Gordon Reid, the Chief Executive Officer of Giant Tiger. The Gordon Reid debt had mandatory "change of control" provisions that necessitated its repayment at the closing of the acquisition. WiseBuys also agreed to execute a guaranty in favour of Community Bank of approximately $1.9 million in debt owed by Hacketts to Community Bank.

In connection with the acquisition, Hacketts entered into executive employment agreements with each of the Sellers. Ms. Cliff's and Mr. Hacketts agreements have five year terms. Mr. Garrelts' agreement has a two year term. Each agreement provides for three years of non-competition after its termination.

 

As part of the transaction, WiseBuys agreed to reserve a five percent equity interest for the benefit of Hacketts management as part of a management incentive program. The details of the program have not yet been finalized, but it is anticipated that the stock reserved for Hacketts management shall be obtained by management via incentive stock options.

Approximately $1.5 million of the acquisition funding resulted from the sale of publicly traded securities held by WiseBuys' wholly owned subsidiary, the Seaway Valley Fund, LLC. The remaining funds were contributed by Seaway Valley Capital Corporation from the proceeds of its sale to Paul L. and Anaflor Graham of a Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $500,000. The Convertible Debenture bears interest at 8% per annum, which is payable in the form of common stock issued by Seaway Valley. The interest and principal are due and payable on September 12, 2012. The holder may convert the principal and accrued interest into common stock of Seaway Valley at a conversion rate equal to the lesser of
(a) $0.024 per share or (b) 90% of the closing market price on the date immediately prior to the date of conversion. The Convertible Debenture may not, however, be converted into an amount of stock which would cause the holder's aggregate holdings to exceed 4.9% of Seaway Valley's outstanding shares.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

January 4, 2008

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc. as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the related statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and the year ended December 31, 2006. Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc.'s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, 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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc. as of September 30, 2007, and December 31, 2006, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and the year ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

PATRICK HACKETT HARDWARE COMPANY, INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

 

For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007 and Year Ended December 31, 2006

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies:

(a) Nature of business:

Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc. (the Company) was incorporated on May 15, 1901 and is engaged in the business of operating five retail stores in Northern New York State. Products sold in the stores include core hardware, sporting goods, gifts and appliances, and apparel and footwear. Some of the stores also rent out construction equipment.

(b) Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(c) Cash and cash equivalents:

For purposes of the Statements of Cash Flows the Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity date of ninety days or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.

(d) Sales tax:

The Company collects New York State sales tax and remits payments as required. Sales tax is reported net of sales in the Statements of Operations.

(e) Accounts receivable:

The Company advances credit in the normal course of operations to individuals and corporations, in the immediate area. No security or collateral is required. Account statements are sent out monthly. Finance charges are accrued on accounts over 30 days old at a rate of 1.5% per month. After nine to ten months of nonpayment, delinquent accounts are turned over for collection. Finance charges are no longer accrued at that time. Revolving accounts require 10% of the principal balance to be paid each month. A finance charge of 1.5% on the balance is charged each month plus an additional charge of $3 if the required 10% of principal balance is not paid.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and the year ended December 30, 2006, all uncollectible accounts were written off no allowance for uncollectible accounts was considered necessary by management.

 

Notes to the Financial Statements, page 2

 

Note 1 - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued):

(f) Inventories:

Inventories are stated at the lower of average cost or market.

(g) Property, plant and equipment:

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost. All expenditures for betterments and additions are charged to the property, plant and equipment accounts. Expenditures in the nature of normal repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.

Depreciation is calculated using the declining balance and straight line methods for financial statement presentation. For tax purposes the accelerated cost recovery system (ACRS) and the modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS) methods are used to calculate depreciation. Depreciation is recorded over the estimated useful lives of the assets and for leasehold improvements over the shorter of the useful life or the term of the lease. Useful lives for equipment and leasehold improvements range from five to fifteen years and forty years for buildings and related improvements.

(h) Income taxes:

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus deferred taxes related primarily to differences between the bases of certain assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. The deferred taxes represent the future tax return consequences of those differences, which will either be deductible or taxable when the assets and liabilities are recovered or settled. Deferred income taxes are recorded using currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax asset or liability is expected to reverse.

The Company recognizes a deferred tax liability for taxable temporary differences and a deferred tax asset for deductible temporary differences and for tax credit carry forwards and operating loss carry forwards. A valuation allowance would be established to reduce net tax assets if it is more likely than not that all, or some portion, of such deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

(i) Floor plan financing:

Floor plan financing is provided by Kawasaki Motors Corp., U.S.A. and their related finance companies. The financing is secured with purchase money security interests in the new unit inventories of motorcycles and other Kawasaki products sold by the Company. As inventory is sold, a portion of the proceeds is used to pay down the outstanding floorplan obligation. Interest is charged on the floorplan at a rate of _______.

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expense as incurred. Advertising expense was $233,795 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, and $289,414 for the year ended December 31, 2006.

(k) Fair value of financial instruments:

The Company maintains various financial instruments in the ordinary course of business, which consist mainly of accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt, line-of-credit and obligations under the interest rate swap.

The interest rates applicable to the Company's long-term debt and line-of-credit approximate market rates and therefore, the carrying value of these instruments approximates their fair value. The market value of the obligation under the interest rate swap was determined by a financial institution using current market rates of interest.

All other financial instruments are short-term in nature and their fair values are based on the amounts that they have been or will be settled for subsequent to the balance sheet date and approximate their carrying value.

(l) Store closing expenses:

At the time a decision is made to close a store, a provision is made for estimated losses consisting of the present value of any net lease liability, the net book value of any leasehold improvements and any other obligation specified by the lease agreement and any other committed costs of closing.

(m) Net income (loss) per share:

Net income (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding in each period.

Note 2 - Cash in bank:

Cash on deposit amounted to $237,013 as of September 30, 2007, and $265,489 at December 31, 2006. Due to the fact that the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation only insures bank accounts to $100,000, the excess of $137,013 and $165,489, respectively, is subject to possible uninsured loss or "credit risk".

Note 3 - Other receivables:

Other receivables as of the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and year ended December 31, 2006 consist of the following:

 

 

                                               2007       2006
----------------------------------------------------------------
 Due from Giant Tiger                       $ 13,919    $  8,236

Note 4 - Income taxes:

Temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax liability and deferred tax asset as of September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2006, are as follows:

 

                                                   2007        2006
     ------------------------------------------------------------------------
     Deferred tax asset:
     Net operating loss carryforward          $ 123,582     $      -

     Other                                       12,852       18,934
     ------------------------------------------------------------------------
      Current deferred tax assets, net         $ 191,934     $ 74,434
     ========================================================================
      Deferred tax liabilities:
     Net operating loss carryforward           $(121,800)   $      -
     Interest rate swap                           (5,100)    (10,900)
     Depreciation                                174,900     179,700
     --------------------------------------------------------------------
      Long-term deferred tax liabilities, net  $  48,000   $ 168,800

          =================================================================

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, requires a valuation allowance against tax assets if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The Company believes that no uncertainty exists with respect to the above asset. Therefore, the Company has not made any such allowance. The Company believes NOL carryforwards will be recognized during the remainder of 2007 and prior to the expiration date of the carryforwards, which is 2023.

Income tax expense includes the following components as of the nine months ended September 30, 2007 and year ended December 31, 2006:

   

                                                             2007         2006

Note 4 - Income taxes (continued):

The current portion of Federal and New York State taxes payable was eliminated by the net operating loss generated for the nine months ended September 30, 2007.

The provision for income taxes differs from taxes that would result from applying Federal statutory rates because of the following:

 

                                        Nine Months Ended              Year Ended
                                       September 30, 2007            December 31, 2006

                                   =======================================================

In 2007, the Company adopted the provision of FASB Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes". The adoption of this interpretation had no effect on the financial statements.

Notes to the Financial Statements, Page 11

Note 15 - Stockholders' Equity & Capital Transactions:

On January 15, 2006, the Company distributed a total of four (4) shares of common stock, valued at $29,500 as a stock dividend. On the same day the two (2) shareholders of record sold and transferred 16 shares each of their common stock to the President of the Company. After this second transaction, the three (3) shareholders each have 32 shares of stock and equal ownership of the Company.

Note 16 - Interest rate swap:

The Company's variable rate mortgage (initially for $1,400,000 and secured by its Ogdensburg store) bears interest at a rate of the London Interbank Offered Rate(LIBOR) plus 1.80%. Under the swap contract, the Company pays interest at 8.20% and receives interest at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 1.80%. The notional amount under the swap decreases as principal payments are made on the note so that the notional amount equals the principal outstanding under the note.

The swap was issued at market terms so that it had no fair value at its inception. The carrying amount of the swap has been adjusted to its fair value at the end of the Company's reporting periods. The benefit or obligation is classified as current for the current period ending September 30, 2007 because the swap will be settled on August 1, 2008 and noncurrent for the year ending December 31, 2006. The Company has not elected hedge accounting for the swap and, therefore, the change in its fair value is included in pretax income.

Note 17 - Subsequent events:

On November 7, 2007, WiseBuys Stores, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Seaway Valley Corporation, purchased all of the outstanding stock of the Company for a total purchase price of $6,000,000. The purchase price was paid with $1,500,000 at closing and the issuance of a series of promissory notes for the remaining purchase price. These notes carry an interest rate of 8% and mature in varying amounts and at various times from August 2008 through November 2015. As part of the transaction, certain outstanding debt of the Company in the amount of approximately $500,000 was repaid by WiseBuys.

The pro-forma adjustments are based on available information and certain assumptions described in the notes to the pro-forma consolidated financial statements that Seaway Valley Capital Corporation’s management believes are reasonable in the circumstances.  The pro-forma consolidated statements of operations assume that the Acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2006.  The pro-forma consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2007, assumes the Acquisitions occurred on September 30, 2007.

 

The pro-forma financial statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of Seaway Valley Capital Corporation, WiseBuys Stores, Inc. and Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc.  The pro-forma consolidated financial statements presented are not necessarily indicative of that which would have been attained had the transaction occurred at an earlier date.

 

The Acquisitions will be accounted for under the Acquisition Method of Accounting.  The total purchase cost of each acquisition will be allocated to the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of WiseBuys Stores, Inc. and Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc. based upon their respective fair values.  Such allocation will be made based upon valuations and other studies that have not been finalized.  Accordingly, the allocations of the purchase cost included in the pro-forma statements are preliminary.  The final values will differ from those set forth in the historical financial statements of WiseBuys Stores, Inc. and Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc.

 

On October 23, 2007, Seaway Valley Capital Corporation acquired all of the capital stock of WiseBuys Stores, Inc. and repaid certain stockholder debentures in exchange for 1,458,236 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock.  The shares are convertible into shares of common stock of Seaway Valley Capital Corporation.  The shares had an estimated fair value of approximately $6,400,000 based on the fair value of Seaway Valley Capital Corporation had the shares been converted at the date of the acquisition.

 

On November 7, 2007, WiseBuys Stores, Inc. purchased all of the outstanding stock of Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc.  Cash of $1,500,000 was disbursed at closing and a series of notes maturing at various dates ranging from 270 days to 8 years in the amount of $4,500,000, were also issued.  These notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 8%.  In addition, outstanding debt of Patrick Hackett Hardware Company, Inc. of approximately $500,000 was repaid and the fixed interest rate on certain existing debt assumed was increased from 8% to 12% per annum.  In addition, as part of the transaction, certain relatives of a selling shareholder were granted postretirement medical benefits.

(e)                 Represents the unallocated excess of the purchase price over the cost of assets acquired.  No preliminary allocation of this amount has been made to any intangible assets; therefore, the entire amount is shown as goodwill.

(f)                  Represents the cash payment of $1,500,000 at the closing:

 

Marketable securities                                                                        $        913,912
