ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

General

Sanswire Corp. ("Sanswire," "Globetel", “we”, “us”, “our”, or the “Company”), is engaged in the business of developing high-altitude airships called Stratellites that will be used to provide wireless voice, video, and data services. The airships are designed to provide intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities in a military context.

From 2002 to 2007 Sanswire was involved in the following business sectors: stored value card services; wholesale telecommunications services; voice over IP; wireless broadband; and high altitude airships. These business units operated through various subsidiaries. The Company has discontinued operations in all but the high altitude airship sector.

Beginning in 2007, Sanswire began focusing exclusively on opportunities through its wholly-owned subsidiary Sanswire Networks. The opportunities associated with Sanswire are related to the Lighter Than Air (LTA) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) market. Sanswire seeks to build and run a UAV business that includes low-, mid- and high-altitude, lighter-than-air vehicles. Sanswire intends to provide customers advanced seamless wireless broadband capabilities and surveillance sensor suites utilizing its High Altitude Airship technology. 

Sanswire’s main products are airships, which provide a platform to transmit wireless capabilities from air to ground.

The High Altitude class of prospective airships are generally referred to as HAAs (High Altitude Airships) but have also been called HAPs and HALEs (High Altitude Platforms, High Altitude Long Endurance). They are being designed to be able to keep a station in one location in the Stratosphere, at approximately 65,000 ft for durations of 30 days or more.

Reverse Stock Split

Sanswire is authorized to issue up to 250,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.00001 per share, (subsequent to a 15-for-1 reverse stock split on May 23, 2005 and subsequent to an increase in the authorized shares from 150,000,000 to 250,000,000 at the shareholder meeting on June 21, 2006) and 10,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001. The post split share calculation will be used throughout this report, unless noted. 760,000 shares of Preferred Stock has been allocated into different series of issuance and the remaining 9,240,000 shares is a so-called "blank check" preferred, meaning that its terms such as dividends, liquidation and other preferences, are to be fixed by our Board of Directors at the time of issuance. The dividends, liquidation rights and other preferences for each class of Preferred Stock are explained in Item 7, Financial Statements, Note 12.

Recent Developments

On October 5, 2007, Sanswire received a "Wells Notice" from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in connection with the SEC’s ongoing investigation of the Company. The Wells Notice provides notification that the staff of the SEC intends to recommend to the Commission that it bring a civil action against the Company for possible violations of the securities laws including violations of Sections 5 and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933; Sections 10(b), 13(a), and 13(b)(2)(A) & (B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11, and 13a-13 thereunder; and seeking as relief a permanent injunction, civil penalties, and disgorgement with prejudgment interest. The staff is also considering recommending that the SEC authorize and institute proceedings to revoke the registration of the Company’s securities pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Exchange Act.

On November 26, 2007 the SEC announced that it had filed a civil lawsuit against two former employees of Sanswire alleging that Joseph J. Monterosso, former Chief Operating Officer of Sanswire and former president of the Company’s Centerline Communications Subsidiary, and Luis Vargas, an employee of Centerline, engaged in a scheme to create $119 million in revenue that was subsequently reported in the Company’s financial statements as filed with the Commission. Securities and Exchange Commission v. Joseph J. Monterosso and Luis E. Vargas , Civil Action No. 07-61693 (S.D. Fla., filed on November 21, 2007).

On May 1, 2008 the SEC filed a lawsuit (the “complaint”) against Sanswire and three of the Company's former officers (Securities and Exchange Commission v. GlobeTel Communications Corp., Timothy J. Huff, Thomas Y. Jimenez and Lawrence E. Lynch, Case No. 08-CV-60647 (S.D. Fla., filed May 1, 2008). The complaint filed represents decisions and actions taken by Sanswire's management team during the Company's operations covering 2004-2006. Specifically the complaint concerns former CEO Timothy Huff, former COO and CFO Larry Lynch, and former CFO Thomas Jimenez. The complaint reiterates that former officer Joseph Monterosso and former employee Louis Vargas conspired to and carried out a scheme to fraudulently cause the Company to report 119 million dollars in nonexistent revenue. The Company no longer has any relationship with those individuals. As a result of the alleged schemes and actions of the previous management mentioned in the complaint, the Company is diligently working to come into compliance with all relevant regulations. The Company has formally exited all businesses associated with the alleged schemes and continues to operate under new management with the goal of completing the restructuring of the Company and focusing all its efforts on new opportunities in the aerospace sector.

On September 22, 2008 we filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to which our wholly owned subsidiary, Sanswire Corp., a Delaware corporation, was merged into us. As a result of the filing of the Certificate of Merger, our corporate name was changed from GlobeTel Communications Corp. to Sanswire Corp.
 
Background

We were previously a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Diversified Group, Inc. (“ADGI”). At a special meeting of stockholders of ADGI held on July 24, 2002, the stockholders of ADGI approved a plan (the "Plan") for the exchange of all outstanding shares of ADGI for an equal number of shares of Sanswire.

ADGI was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada as Terra West Homes, Inc. on January 16, 1979. On March 15, 1995, its name was changed to "American Diversified Group, Inc." During the period ended July 24, 2002, ADGI's business activities included (i) sale of telecommunication services primarily involving Internet telephony using VoIP through its Global Transmedia Communications Corporation subsidiary ("Global"), and (ii) wide area network and local area network services provided through its NCI Telecom, Inc. subsidiary ("NCI").
 
Global was acquired by ADGI on February 19, 2000, and NCI was acquired on June 29, 2000. During 2002, Global and NCI were merged with and into ADGI, with ADGI as the surviving corporation.

When ADGI exchanged all of its outstanding shares of common stock for Sanswire common stock, ADGI became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sanswire and Sanswire began conducting the business formerly conducted by ADGI. 

In 2004, we formed wholly-owned subsidiaries: Sanswire Networks, LLC (“Sanswire-FL”) for our Stratellite project; and Centerline Communications, LLC, (“Centerline” or “CLC”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, EQ8, LLC, G Link Solutions, LLC, Volta Communications, LLC, and Lonestar Communications, LLC for the purpose of the recording and managing the sale of wholesale minutes and related network management functions. We have since closed Centerline and its subsidiaries.
 
In 2004, we acquired a 73.15% interest in Consolidated Global Investments, Ltd. (“CGI”), formerly known as Advantage Telecommunications, Ltd. (“ATC”), an Australian company. CGI was to be utilized in the carrier sales sector of our business and was later to be a licensee of the Sanswire Networks, LLC in Australia. However, we have since sold our shares in CGI back to the Company and no longer have any interest in CGI. Certain shares of Sanswire acquired by CGI were sold by CGI. The Securities and Exchange Commission has questioned the validity of the exemption used for the sale of such shares as more fully discussed below in Item 3 “Legal Proceedings.”

In 2008 we incorporated Sanswire Corp., a Florida corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary, to deal directly with airship opportunities based upon our agreement with TAO Technologies, GmbH. We also incorporated Sanswire-TAO Corp., a Florida corporation that is a 50/50 joint venture with TAO Technologies. The agreements with TAO are discussed below.
 
On September 22, 2008 we filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to which our wholly owned subsidiary, Sanswire Corp., a Delaware corporation, was merged into us. As a result of the filing of the Certificate of Merger, our corporate name was changed from GlobeTEl Communications Corp. to Sanswire Corp.
 
Business of Sanswire
 
Sanswire Corp. has sharply refined its operating model ─ focusing exclusively on opportunities in Lighter Than Air (LTA) Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). We seek to build and run a UAV business that includes low-, mid- and high-altitude, lighter-than-air vehicles; adding value to their security, surveillance and broadcasting abilities through the integration of wireless technologies with a wide array of customer payloads. Our long-term objective is to provide commercial and government customers advanced seamless wireless broadband capabilities and surveillance sensor suites utilizing a state of the art High Altitude Airship technology.  Building upon this high altitude technology, Our near term goal is to penetrate the military/government use market for low to mid altitude unmanned airships
 
Our main products are airships, which provide a platform to transmit wireless capabilities from air to ground.
 
The High Altitude class of prospective airships are generally referred to as HAAs (High Altitude Airships) but have also been called HAPs and HALEs (High Altitude Platforms, High Altitude Long Endurance). They are being designed to be able to keep a station in one location in the Stratosphere, at approximately 65,000 ft for durations of 30 days or more. 65,000 ft is the sweet spot in the stratosphere for optimal wind conditions to keep station using the least amount of power.
 
STRATELLITE™
 
Our HAA is the STRATELLITE™, so named because they offer the functionality of a satellite in the stratosphere. This class of airship will consist of several models to suit various purposes. STRATELLITES™ were conceived to help solve infrastructure issues that plague many parts of the world, including the so called "last mile" (building expensive ground based infrastructure for very low density areas) issues.  The STRATELLITE™ can bring a full range of telecommunications or broadcasting capabilities to any area of the world, accessible to people with customer premise equipment that is inexpensive and available.
 
The Stratellite™ is a high altitude long endurance airship intended to populate “near space” with telecommunications capability. A presence in near space with high tech sensors and communications suites offers enormous potential for both commercial and government applications. Whether hovering at 65,000 feet or flying a variety of mission profiles, the Stratellite offers many of the features of satellites with cost savings, refurbishment ability, and opportunity for regular system upgrades.

There is a great need for information-transmission in the future performed by High Altitude Platforms in various fields;

 
·
mobile broadband communications

7

 
·
emergencies, use in disaster areas
 
·
marine radio service
 
·
new traffic engineering systems
 
·
weather observation
 
·
water surveillance (pollution)
 
·
ozone and smog monitoring
 
·
radiation monitoring (UV and radioactive)
 
·
astronomic and terrestrial observation
 
·
documentation of conditions in the upper atmosphere
 
·
border control, coast surveillance
 
·
private communication services like e.g. cellular phones
 
·
transmission of radio- and television programmers etc.

SANSWIRE-TAO
 
Sanswire first entered into an agreement with TAO Technologies in 2005. At that time, TAO provided engineering support to the efforts of Sanswire Networks, LLC then working out of facilities in California. In September 2007, Sanswire entered into a letter of intent with TAO Technologies GmbH, a German company specializing in the design of remotely operated airships. Sanswire had been working with TAO since 2005. Pursuant to the letter of intent Sanswire will purchase 50% of TAO, and TAO will be renamed Sanswire-TAO GmbH. The Company will be focused on the design, development and production of unmanned aerial vehicles. It is expected that Sanswire-TAO will be based chiefly in Stuttgart. The acquisition of 50% of TAO follows the October 2005 development agreement between Sanswire and TAO that resulted in the construction and testing of the Sanswire 2A.

The letter of intent calls for TAO and Sanswire to share sales and marketing rights of various aerial vehicles developed and currently owned by TAO. Additionally, upon closing of definitive agreements, TAO will grant to Sanswire-TAO the respective patents and intellectual property rights covering the products, including the AirChain segmented airship.

In November 2007, the Company entered into a Licensing and Technical Cooperation Agreement with TAO. TAO granted to Sanswire an exclusive license for the territories of the US, Canada, Mexico and Chile for the marketing and distribution of airships based upon the technologies patented and developed by TAO. TAO will also provide testing and engineering support for the development of airships to meet the criteria required by Sanswire customers. Sanswire is obligated to provide TAO with engineering orders of at least $1,000,000 per year and certain cash and stock payments on a quarterly basis.

On June 3, 2008 Sanswire and TAO entered into an agreement to form a 50/50 US based joint venture to place, among other things, the rights to the TAO intellectual property in US, Canada, and Mexico into the US based JV company to be called Sanswire-TAO.  This integration of Sanswire and Stuttgart, Germany-based TAO Technologies Gmbh took place to create various strategic advantages for both companies. Each group entered the relationship with synergistic, yet very distinct core competencies. Sanswire’s business development, its inroads into the U.S. Government review process as well as inroads into overseas markets and other marketing resources complement TAO’s vast airship product research and development ability.

The Sanswire-TAO research and development efforts are centered in Stuttgart, taking advantage of the relationship between TAO and the University of Stuttgart. This relationship provides cost-effective access to aerospace testing facilities including wind tunnels, environmental test chambers, structural testing devices, computer aided design and a legion of aerospace and physics professionals along with their more than 10 years of solar powered airship experience. The Sanswire-TAO joint venture provides the following:

 
(1)
Multiple Airship Platforms – Ranging from short range low altitude platforms to Stratospheric solutions.
 
(2)
Access to Resources – Through contractual relationships with world-renowned universities, including their hometown University of Stuttgart.

8

 
(3)
Research and Development – More than a decade of knowledge and experience resulting from significant data gathered from vital airship testing.
 
(4)
Proprietary Systems – Custom developed systems from the design and modeling of airships to specialized flight control systems.
 
(5)
Intellectual Property – Patented designs and concepts providing worldwide protection.
 
(6)
Constructed Airships – Several platforms built for demonstrations
 
(7)
Testing Facilities – Including aerospace laboratories, assembly and storage hangars, wind tunnels, certified launch and flight facilities, and certified manufacturing and production facilities.

Competitive Business Conditions

We are aware of other companies that are also developing high altitude platforms similar in nature to our Stratellite project. Our competitors, though, may have more resources available to develop their respective products. Furthermore, since the airship projects are currently in the development stage, there can be no assurance that the project will successfully complete the development stage and result in a commercially viable product. Even if a properly functioning, commercially viable product is established there can be no assurance that revenues will be achieved from the sales of Stratellites or other airships or that the costs to produce such revenues will not exceed the revenues or that the project will otherwise be profitable. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully achieve the results we anticipate with this project.

Sources and Availability of Hardware and Software

Equipment for the Stratellite, SAS-51 and the prototypes thereof are custom made for those products and are dependent upon either single or limited number of suppliers for certain goods. Failure of a supplier could cause significant delays in delivery of the airships if another supplier cannot be promptly found.

Sources and Availability of Technical Knowledge and Component Parts

The Sanswire project requires a high level of technological knowledge and adequately functioning component parts and sub-assemblies to continue the project and achieve commercial viability. We have current and contemplated arrangements for supply of both internal and external technical knowledge to provide the intellectual capital to continue with this project. Specifically, there is a high level of interest and anticipated cooperation from technical experts within the government, military, and commercial sectors. Similarly, we have current and contemplated arrangements for supply required component parts, both internally developed, as well as, outsourced from specialty contractors to provide component parts to continue with this project in the near term.

Dependence on a Few Customers

As discussed below in Item 6, Management Discussion and Analysis and Plan of Operation, we are currently dependent on a limited number of customers. As we expand our products, services, and markets, we expect to substantially broaden our customer base and reduce our dependence upon just a few customers. However, there is no guarantee that we will be able to broaden our customer base.

Trademarks

We have filed for registration of the names "Stratellite" and "Sanswire" under the Madrid Protocol (that includes the United States) and in many non-Madrid Protocol countries

We intend to file for patents covering unique design and intellectual property covering the design and engineering of the Stratellite, but will wait until these are finalized. We have additionally entered into an agreement with TAO Technologies GmbH, with whom Sanswire has collaborated since 2005. This agreement provides exclusive licensing and patent rights for TAO’s airship technologies and allows Sanswire to register the TAO patents in the United States.

Regulatory Matters

The export of the Stratellite or SkySat may be subject to United States State Department restrictions on the transfer of technology. We are currently investigating whether or not the export of the Sanswire products would require export licenses and how the production of these vehicles in Germany through our agreement with TAO Technologies, GmbH would impact this.

During 2007, Sanswire and its subsidiaries incurred payroll tax liability during the normal course of business at each payroll cycle. The Company submitted certain withholding tax payments during the first quarter through a payroll processor, ADP. Subsequent thereto, the Company no longer processed its payroll through ADP. During this time, the Company did not file the appropriate tax forms or deposit the appropriate withholding amounts. The Company has recognized this issue and contacted the IRS accordingly to bring its filings up-to-date and pay any taxes due. The Company may be subject to penalties and interest from the IRS.

Number of Total Employees and Number of Full-Time Employees

As of September 1, 2008 we have 6 full-time employees, including our executive officers and employees of our subsidiaries. We do not believe that we will have difficulty in hiring and retaining qualified individuals for our general operations and any technical personnel required for the aerospace projects will primarily be hired overseas to work with the existing TAO personnel.
 
ITEM 2. DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY
Sanswire’s corporate offices are now located at 101 NE 3 rd Ave., Suite 1500, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33301. Base rent is $1,486 per month plus the cost of services used by Sanswire. The lease is for a period of 6 months.
 
The Company previously leased office facilities at 9050 Pines Blvd., Suite 110, Pembroke Pines, Florida 33024, as of April 1, 2004. This lease will expire in June 2009, and had a initial monthly rent of $5,462. In November 2004, the Company leased additional adjacent space at the Pembroke Pines, Florida location under the same terms and period as the existing lease, bringing the total monthly rent to $9,186. 

In June 2005, we negotiated with the landlord to lease an additional 5,000 square feet office on the second floor of our prior facility, 9050 Pines Blvd., Pembroke Pines, Florida 33024. The Company began occupancy of this office in April 2006 and the lease expires in June 2009 with a monthly rent of $9,186 (including sales tax). The Company vacated the premises in March 2006, having turned over the space as part of the sale of the Stored Value assets. However, there was unpaid rent due on both the first and second floor suites. In August 2007, the landlord received a judgment in the amount of $206,730.

Until September 2007, the Company leased a 66,000 square foot space hanger in Palmdale, California. The initial lease, between Sanswire Networks, LLC and the City of Los Angeles World Airports, was for a term of three months, ended July 22, 2005 with a monthly rent of $19,990. On June 8, 2005 the lease term was amended for fifteen months, commencing June 8, 2005 through September 7, 2006, with two one-year options. Concurrently with the signing of the amended lease, the parties entered into a reimbursement agreement to share the cost of certain improvements.

As of October 2007, Sanswire no longer occupies a hangar at Palmdale Regional Airport, the monthly cost of this space was $20,847. This facility was adjacent to the United States Air Force’s Plant 42 and Edwards Air Force Base. Sanswire constructed and tested Stratellite and Sky Sat prototypes at the facility. The hangar also included administrative office space. Sanswire is indebted to Los Angeles World Airports, the lessor of the hangar, in the amount of $161,761.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Securities and Exchange Commission

On September 28, 2006, the Company received a formal order of investigation from the SEC. The formal order only named the Company and was not specific to any particular allegations. Through the use of subpoenas, the SEC has requested documentation from certain officers and directors of the Company. In subsequent subpoenas, the SEC has asked for additional documents and information.

On October 5, 2007, Sanswire received a "Wells Notice" from the SEC in connection with the SEC’s ongoing investigation of the Company. The Wells Notice provides notification that the staff of the SEC intends to recommend to the Commission that it bring a civil action against the Company for possible violations of the securities laws including violations of Sections 5 and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933; Sections 10(b), 13(a), and 13(b)(2)(A) & (B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11, and 13a-13 thereunder; and seeking as relief a permanent injunction, civil penalties, and disgorgement with prejudgment interest. The staff is also considering recommending that the SEC authorize and institute proceedings to revoke the registration of Company’s securities pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Exchange Act.

On May 2, 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Sanswire Corp. (the “Company”) and three former officers of the Company, Timothy J. Huff, Thomas Y. Jimenez and Lawrence E. Lynch. The SEC alleges, among other things, that the Company recorded $119 million in revenue on the basis of fraudulent invoices created by Joseph Monterosso and Luis Vargas, two individuals formerly employed by the Company who were in charge of its wholesale telecommunications business.

The SEC alleges that the Company violated Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11 and 13a-13 under the Exchange Act. The SEC seeks as relief a permanent injunction, civil penalties, and disgorgement with prejudgment interest. In response to the Complaint, the Company has filed a motion to dismiss, which motion is still pending before the Court. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this action.

Joseph Monterosso

In October 2007 the Company filed a lawsuit in the Circuit Court for Broward County, Florida against Joseph J. Monterosso alleging Libel, Slander and Defamation, Tortuous Interference, Violations of FS § 836.05 (Threats Extortion)  and violations of FS §517 (Securities Fraud). Mr. Monterosso has not yet been served with the complaint.

Wachovia v. GlobeTel

In connection with the operations of Globetel Wireless Europe GmbH and the acquisition of Altvater GmbH, the Company guaranteed a letter of credit in the amount of $600,000. Upon Globetel Wireless Europe GmbH ceasing operations, the letter of credit was drawn upon. The letter of credit was not collateralized. In September 2007, Wachovia filed a lawsuit in Broward County in an attempt to recover the amount through arbitration with the American Arbitration Association. On June 2, 2008, the American Arbitration Association awarded Wachovia $762,902.

Richard Stevens v. GlobeTel

The Company and its directors were sued in the case RICHARD STEVENS vs. GLOBETEL COMMUNICATIONS CORP., et al. Case No.: 06-cv 21071. The original allegations of the complaint were that the Company’s proposed transaction to build wireless networks in Russia was a sham. The amended complaint alleged that the transaction was not a sham, but that the Company refused to accept payment of $300 million. Recently, the officers and directors with the exception of Timothy Huff have been dismissed from the case.
 
11

In February 2008, the Company and the Plaintiff reached a settlement in principle that has been filed with the Court for approval. Under the terms of the proposed settlement agreement in the class action, the Company’s D&O insurance carrier will make a cash payment to the class of $2,300,000, less up to $100,000 for potential counsel fees and expenses. All claims in the class action will be dismissed with prejudice. The US District Court for the Southern District of Florida has approved the settlements reached in its pending securities class action and a shareholder derivative action on February 4, 2008.

Derivative Action

On July 10, 2006 a derivative action was filed against the officers and directors of Sanswire alleging that they have not acted in the best interest of the Company or the shareholders and alleged that the transaction to install wireless networks in Russia was a sham. The lawsuit is pending in the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Florida (Civil Case No. 06-60923). The Company believes that the suits are without merit and will vigorously defend against it. The Company has hired outside counsel to defend it in this action. The Company and the Plaintiff have reached an agreement in principle to settle this action and have submitted such settlement with the Court for its approval. Under the terms of the settlement, Company’s D&O insurance carrier will pay $60,000 in attorneys’ fees to plaintiff’s counsel, the Company will implement or maintain certain corporate governance changes, and all claims will be dismissed with prejudice.

Mitchell Siegel v. Globetel

On February 2, 2007, Sanswire was sued in the Circuit Court for Broward County, Florida entitled Mitchell Siegel v. Globetel Communications Corp. , Case no. 0702456 (“the Siegel Lawsuit”). In this action, Siegel sued Sanswire for breach of contract in regards to a Key Executive Employment Agreement. On February 15, 2008, both parties entered into a settlement agreement whereas Mr. Siegel would receive $175,000 worth of stock, payable over 12 months, and 50% of the gross proceeds, up to a total amount of $300,000, received from an October 2006 agreement.

Former Consultants

The Company is a defendant in two lawsuits filed by Matthew Milo and Joseph Quattrocchi, two former consultants, filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York (Richmond County, Case no. 12119/00 and 12118/00). These matters were subsequently consolidated as a result of an Order of the court and now bear the singular index number 12118/00. The original lawsuits were for breach of contract. The complaint demands the delivery of 10,000,000 pre split shares of ADGI stock to Milo and 10,000,000 to Quattrocchi. Sanswire was entered into the action as ADGI was the predecessor of the Company. The suit also requests an accounting for the sales generated by the consultants and attorneys fees and costs for the action.

The lawsuits relate to consulting services that were provided by Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi and a $50,000 loan advanced by these individuals, dated May 14, 1997, of which $35,000 has been repaid.

The Company entered into an agreement with Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi as consultants on June 25, 1998. The agreement was amended on August 15, 1998. On November 30, 1998, both Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi resigned from their positions as consultants to the Company without fulfilling all of their obligations under their consulting agreement. The Company issued 3 million pre split shares each to Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi as consideration under the consulting agreement. The Company has taken the position that Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi received compensation in excess of the value of the services that they provided and the amounts that they advanced as loans.

Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi disagreed with the Company’s position and commenced action against us that is pending in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi claim that they are entitled to an additional 24,526,000 pre split shares of common stock as damages under the consulting agreement and to the repayment of the loan balance. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses to the Milo and Quattrocchi action, and the Company has counterclaims against Mr. Milo and Mr. Quattrocchi.
 
12

With regard to the issues related to original index number 12119/00, as a result of a summary judgment motion, the plaintiffs were granted a judgment in the sum of $15,000. The rest of the plaintiff's motion was denied. The court did not order the delivery of 24,526,000 pre split shares of ADGI common stock as the decision on that would be reserved to time of trial.

An Answer and Counterclaim had been interposed on both of these actions. The Answer denies many of the allegations in the complaint and is comprised of eleven affirmative defenses and five counterclaims alleging damages in the sum of $1,000,000. The counterclaims in various forms involve breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duty by the plaintiffs.

For the most part, the summary judgment motions that plaintiffs brought clearly stated their theories of recovery and the documents that they will rely on in prosecuting the action. The case was assigned to a judicial hearing officer and there was one week of trial. The trial has been since adjourned with no further trial dates having been set.

It is still difficult to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome at this time in light of the fact that there has been no testimony with regard to the actions. However, the plaintiffs have prevailed with regard to their claim of $15,000 as a result of the lawsuit bearing the original index Number 12119/00.

This case went before a Judicial Hearing Officer on July 6 and 7, 2006. No resolution occurred during the July hearing and the Judicial Hearing Officer has asked for written statements of facts and law. The outcome cannot be projected with any certainty.  However, the Company does not believe that it will be materially adversely affected by the outcome of the proceeding. The Company has not been informed of any further developments since the hearing.

Trimax Wireless

On July 3, 2007 Sanswire filed suit against its former employee Ulrich Altvater and his company Trimax Wireless seeking the return of certain equipment held at the former GlobeTel Wireless offices and for the return of $175,000 lent to Altvater by the Company. The replevin action against Trimax was dismissed on the basis of venue and the Company intends to refile the suit with regard to Trimax in Collier County, Florida.
 
On July 12, 2007, the Company terminated its agreement with Mr. Altvater and his company, Trimax Wireless, Inc.
 
In August 2007, Altvater and Trimax filed suit against Sanswire alleging, defamation, conversion, breach of contract and seeking injunctive relief. Sanswire successfully moved to have the two cases consolidated and has filed a Motion to Dismiss this suit. The Company intends to vigorously defend this suit, but no assurance can be given about the outcome of the litigation.
 
American Express

American Express Travel Related Services Company, Inc. has filed a lawsuit against Sanswire and Sanswire Networks LLC (CASE NO: CACE 08-013239, Broward County Florida), seeking to recover a total of $394,919 for unpaid charges on the Companies’ corporate purchasing account. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this action.

In December 2004, we established our 2004 Stock Option Bonus Plan, wherein the board of directors authorized the issuance of stock options totaling 1,765,833 shares to the officers and employees of the Company as payment of accrued bonuses through December 31, 2004. The stock options are exercisable at the lower of $.675 per share or 50% of the closing market price at the date of exercise.

In December 2004, the board of directors authorized the issuance of stock options totaling 247,886 shares to the directors of the Company as payment of accrued board members' stipends through December 31, 2004. The stock options are exercisable at the lower of $.5865 per share or 50% of the closing market price on date of exercise.

In January 2005, the option holders exercised their rights to convert a portion of the stock options pursuant to the Officers Stock Grant Plan, the 2004 Stock Option Bonus Plan, and the options for accrued directors' stipends into common stock at $.675, and, as a result, we issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock in January 2005, in accordance with the stock option agreements.

In November 2005, the Company established its 2005 Stock Option Bonus Plan, wherein the board of directors authorized the issuance of stock options for restricted shares totaling 1,509,180 shares to the officers and employees of the Company as payment of accrued bonuses through December 31, 2005. The stock options are exercisable at $2.12, based on the closing market price of the Company's free-trading shares on the date the options were granted. Through the date of this report, none of these options have been exercised.

During 2005, the board of directors authorized the issuance of stock options for restricted shares totaling 199,490 shares to the directors of the Company as board members’ compensation for services through December 31, 2005. The stock options are exercisable at various amounts, ranging from $1.99 to $4.35 per share, based on the closing market price of the Company's free-trading shares on the date the options were granted, except for a now former director who was issued 37,500 and 30,000 options shares at $1.49 and $0.99, respectively. Through the date of this report, none of these options have been exercised.
 
During 2006, the board of directors authorized the issuance of stock options for restricted shares totaling 2,003,215 shares to the directors of the Company as board members’ compensation for services through December 31, 2006. The stock options are exercisable at various amounts, ranging from $1.21 to $2.30 per share, based on the closing market price of the Company's free-trading shares on the date the options were granted.

15

In addition to the above parties, the Corporate Secretary / General Counsel and the Senior Vice-President were awarded .75% and 2%, respectively, of the total shares outstanding, at the fair market value of the Company's stock on the date the options were granted. Also, a board member, Randolph Dumas, was awarded 2.5% of the total shares outstanding, exercisable at $1.79 per share. A total of 13,992,374 and 6,654, options shares were granted for 2005.

In addition, certain employees, vendors, professionals and consultants were paid with common stock (see Note 10 to financial statements) and with stock options (see Note 11 to financial statements) and certain investment banking and broker's fees were paid with preferred stock (see Note 12 to financial statements) in lieu of cash compensation.
 
ITEM 6. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION

GENERAL

Twelve months ended December 31, 2007 ("Fiscal 2007" or "2007" or "the current year") compared to twelve months ended December 31, 2006 ("Fiscal 2006" or "2006" or "the prior year").

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUES. During fiscal 2007, our gross sales were $53,754, representing a increase of 42.2% over the prior year when our gross sales were $37,808. Our revenues increased primarily due to an increase in revenues from network management fees.

COST OF SALES. Our cost of sales consists primarily of the wholesale cost network bandwidth. During fiscal 2007, we had cost of sales of $15,529 representing a decrease of 83.9% from $96,168 for fiscal 2006.

GROSS MARGIN (LOSS). Our gross margin was $38,225 or 71.1% for fiscal 2007, compared to our gross loss of $58,360 or 254% for fiscal 2006, an increase of $96,585 or 165.5%. The increase is primarily due to the higher margin achieved for the network management revenue due to diminishing bandwidth costs.

OPERATING EXPENSES. Our operating expenses consist primarily of payroll and related taxes, professional and consulting services, expenses for executive and administrative personnel and insurance, bad debts, investment banking and financing fees, investor and public relations, research and development, sales commissions, telephone and communications, facilities expenses, travel and related expenses, and other general corporate expenses. Our operating expenses for fiscal 2007 were $7,496,801 compared to fiscal year 2006 operating expenses of $13,158,474 an decrease of $5,661,673 or 43%.

The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in officers' and directors' compensation to $696,790 (including non-cash compensation), from $1,931,774 in the prior year.

In addition, employee payroll and related taxes for fiscal 2007 were $3,611,596 compared to $3,916,409, a decrease of $304,813 or 7.8%. This decrease was due to a reduction of our operations, facilities and workforce during 2007.
 
16

During 2007, Sanswire and its subsidiaries incurred payroll tax liability during the normal course of business at each payroll cycle. The Company submitted certain withholding tax payments during the first and second quarters through a payroll processor, ADP. Subsequent thereto, the Company no longer processed its payroll through ADP. The Company did not file the appropriate tax forms until 2008 and has failed to deposit the appropriate withholding amounts. The Company has recognized this issue and contacted the IRS accordingly to make arrangement to pay any taxes due, which is currently estimated to be at least $150,000. The Company may be subject to penalties and interest from the IRS.

We incurred $1,635,303 of consulting fees, an increase of $1,012,084 or 162.4% for 2007 compared to $623,219 in 2006. This increase is primarily related to additional services required to develop and expand our geographical and product markets and projects in Mexico that was $550,000 in stock compensation, as well as increased professional fees in maintaining and expanding a public company, which included the fees related to the accounting department.
 
We received a $14,856 of research and development refund for our Sanswire project during 2007, compared to $1,573,150 during 2006, a decrease of $1,588,006 or 100.9%. During 2007, there were no direct expenses for development and building of the airship, as compared to $1,573,150 of direct expenses during 2006. This is due mainly to the fact that Company had no capital available to further the development. The Company believes that further development will increase during 2008 and thus associated expenses are expected to increase for 2008.

During 2007, we incurred $1,567,968 of general and administrative expenses as compared to $4,730,437 during 2006. The $3,162,469 decrease was due to a reduction expenses related to our operations, facilities and workforce during 2007.

During 2007, we incurred no depreciation expenses as compared to $289,914 during 2006. All the companies assets were impaired, sold or written down during 2006 leaving no assets to be depreciated.

LOSS FROM OPERATIONS. We had an operating loss of ($7,458,576) for fiscal year 2007 as compared to an operating loss of ($13,216,834) for fiscal 2006, primarily due to decreased operating expenses as described above, including lower operating costs and reductions of our various programs.

OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE). We had net other expenses totaling ($2,228,096) during fiscal year 2007 compared to ($6,484,551) during fiscal 2006. This variance was due primarily to the impairment of assets related to the Stored Value assets of ($5,222,066) and the write-off of other assets of ($682,695) in 2006.

Interest expense for fiscal year 2007 was $2,482,296 compared to $579,790 for the prior year. Interest expense increase was primarily due to noncash financing charges associated with the Company’s convertible debentures as well as the accrual of interest associated with its unsecured notes.

LOSS FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS. During 2007 we had a loss of ($1,918,806) related to our discontinued operations compared to ($7,566,882) during fiscal year 2006. See note 2 in the financial statements for more information regarding the discontinued operations.

NET LOSS. We had a net loss of ($11,605,478) in fiscal year 2007 compared to a net loss of ($27,268,267) in fiscal 2006. The decrease in net loss is primarily attributable to the decrease in the operating expenses as discussed above.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

ASSETS. At December 31, 2007, we had total assets of $441,956 compared to total assets of $508,905 as of December 31, 2006.

The current assets at December 31, 2007, were $50,956 compared to $454,525 at December 31, 2006. As of December 31, 2007, we had $32,278 of cash and cash equivalents compared to $4,243 at December 31, 2006.
 
17

The Company had deposits of $391,000 as of December 31, 2007 compared to $72,987 as of December 31, 2006. The $391,000 relates to payments toward an agreement reached in May 2008 for the intellectual property of TAO Technologies. During 2007, a rental deposit for Los Angeles World Airport related to the Palmdale Hanger occupied by Sanswire Networks, LLC in the amount of $72,000 was used to pay rent obligations on the Palmdale Hangar that is no longer occupied by Sanswire.

During 2007 our accounts receivable, which consisted of a reimbursement check from our insurance provider, of $271,262 as of December 31, 2006 was received leaving no accounts receivable as of December 31, 2007.

We had $18,678 of current assets from discontinued operations as of December 31, 2007 as compared to $106,033 at December 31, 2006. We also had no other assets from discontinued operations as of December 31, 2006 as compared to $54,380 at December 31, 2005. See note 3 in the financial statements for more information regarding the discontinued operations.

LIABILITIES. At December 31, 2007, we had total liabilities of $13,666,678 compared to total liabilities of $14,694,994 as of December 31, 2006.

The current liabilities at December 31, 2007 were $13,666,678 compared to $10,096,661 at December 31, 2006, an increase of $2,807,115. The increase is principally due to the current portion of payments due on the notes payable for $6,262,598 (see note 6 of the financial statements), the increase in accounts payable of $692,117, and the increase in accrued salaries and payroll taxes of $607,258.
 
The Company had no long-term liabilities as of December 31, 2007 compared to $4,598,333 in 2006 due to stock being issued in 2007 as contemplated for the long term portion of the due to a related party - Hotzone Wireless as well as for the debt owed to its former employee.

CASH FLOWS. Our cash used in operating activities was $2,286,113 compared to $14,140,328 for the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to the decreased level of operations and operating activities and changes in our current assets and liabilities.

During 2007 there was $372,500 used in investing activities of which $130,000 was used as a deposit for the Sanswire-Tao joint venture and $242,500 from its discontinued operations compared to $255,182 in the prior year which was mainly attributed to cash payments made towards the purchase additional equipment.
 
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,686,648 principally from the exercise of warrants and the conversion of notes and loan payables totaling $2,701,312, as compared to $13,333,803 in the prior year.

In April 2007, we received approximately $750,000 from the exercise of warrants by certain investors. With this funding, we will still require additional capital resources to fund our operations and capital requirements as presently planned over the next twelve months.

Throughout 2007 and continuing into 2008, the Company has been dependent upon monthly funding from its existing debt holders. Funding decisions have typically not extended beyond thirty days at any given time, and the Company does not currently have a defined funding source. Funding delays and uncertainties have seriously damaged vendor relationships, new product development and revenues. In the absence of continued monthly funding by its current debt holders, the Company would have insufficient funds to continue operations. There is no assurance that additional funding from the current debt holders will be available or available on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company.
 
18

During 2008, the Company has subsequently raised approximately $690,000 from investors; however this is not adequate funding to cover the estimated working capital deficit of approximately $8 million or the net loss for 2007 of approximately $11 million.
As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, during the year ended December 31, 2007 we had a net loss of ($11,605,478) compared to a net loss of ($27,268,267) during 2006. Consequently, there is an accumulated deficit of ($120,395,726) at December 31, 2007 compared to ($108,790,248) at December 31, 2006.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE

Trade and other accounts receivable are reported at face value less any provisions for uncollectible accounts considered necessary. As of December 31, 2006, the accounts receivable consists of a reimbursement from the Company’s Directors and Officers insurance for legal and accounting expenses that were paid above the Company’s deductible which was received in August 2007.
 
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
 
In connection with the sale of debt or equity instruments, we may enter into Registration Rights Agreements. Generally, these Agreements require us to file registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register common shares that may be issued on conversion of debt or preferred stock, to permit re-sale of common shares previously sold under an exemption from registration or to register common shares that may be issued on exercise of outstanding options or warrants.
 
These Agreements usually require us to pay penalties for any time delay in filing the required registration statements, or in the registration statements becoming effective, beyond dates specified in the Agreement. These penalties are usually expressed as a fixed percentage, per month, of the original amount we received on issuance of the debt or preferred stock, common shares, options or warrants. We account for these penalties as a contingent liability and not as a derivative instrument.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues for voice, data, and other services to end-users are recognized in the month in which the service is provided. Amounts invoiced and collected in advance of services provided are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenues for carrier interconnection and access are recognized in the month in which the service is provided.

Sales of telecommunications networks are recognized when the networks are delivered and accepted by the customer. Sales of computer hardware, equipment, and installation are recognized when products are shipped to customers. Provisions for estimated returns and allowances are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Revenues on service contracts are recognized ratably over applicable contract periods. Amounts billed and collected before services are performed are included in deferred revenues.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
 
19

STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment , which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees . In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment , relating to SFAS No. 123(R). The Company has applied applicable provisions of SAB No. 107 in its adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).
 
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first day of its year ended December 31, 2006. In accordance with this transition method, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of, SFAS No. 123(R). The Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS No. 123(R). Upon adopting SFAS No. 123(R), for awards with service conditions and graded-vesting, a one-time election was made to recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
 
Stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS No. 123(R) for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $1,667,107 and $321,729, respectively.  

The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant uses the Black-Scholes model, which is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors.  Forfeitures are recognized as incurred.
 
The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued to non-employees for goods and services using the guidance of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 96-18: “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” whereby the fair value of such option and warrant grants is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the earlier of the date at which the non-employee’s performance is completed or a performance commitment is reached.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157)
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157. This Statement defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosure related to the use of fair value measures in financial statements. SFAS No. 157 does not expand the use of fair value measures in financial statements, but standardizes its definition and guidance in GAAP. The Standard emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement and not an entity-specific measurement based on an exchange transaction in which the entity sells an asset or transfers a liability (exit price). SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy from observable market data as the highest level to fair value based on an entity’s own fair value assumptions as the lowest level. SFAS No. 157 is to be effective for its financial statements issued in 2008. The Company believes that SFAS No. 157 will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (SFAS No. 159)
 
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159. The Fair Value Option of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 provides an option to report selected financial assets and financial liabilities using fair value. The standard establishes required presentation and disclosures to facilitate comparisons with companies that use different measurements for similar assets and liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with early adoption allowed if SFAS No. 157 is also adopted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 159 on its consolidated financial statements.
 
20

SFAS No. 141 (R), Business Combinations (SFAS No. 141R) and SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements (SFAS No. 160)
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations, and SFAS No. 160, Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. SFAS No. 141R requires an acquirer to measure the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree at their fair values on the acquisition date, with goodwill being the excess value over the net identifiable assets acquired. SFAS No. 160 clarifies that a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary should be reported as equity in the consolidated financial statement. The calculation of earnings per share will continue to be based on income amounts attributable to the parent. SFAS No. 141R and SFAS No. 160 are effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The Company has not yet determined the effect on our financial statements, if any, upon adoption of SFAS No. 141R or SFAS No. 160.

SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (SFAS No. 161)

In March 2008, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities”. The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. FAS 161 is effective for the Company in fiscal 2010.

Management does not believe that there are any recently-issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, which could have a material effect on the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements

ITEM 7. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of:
Sanswire Corp. (formerly known as Globetel Communications Corp.) and Subsidiaries

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Sanswire Corp. (formerly known as Globetel Communications Corp.) and Subsidiaries (the “Company”), as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' deficits, and cash flows for the years then ended. The consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with 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 consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated 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.

We were not engaged to examine management’s assertion about the effectiveness of Sanswire Corp. (formerly known as Globetel Communications Corp.) and Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 included in the Company’s Item 8A “Controls and Procedures” in the Annual Report on Form 10-KSB and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion thereon.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Sanswire Corp. (formerly known as Globetel Communications Corp.) and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has experienced net losses and negative cash flows from operations and expects such losses to continue. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

As discussed in Note 1, on May 2, 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against GlobeTel Communications Corp. (the “Company”) and three former officers of the Company, Timothy J. Huff, Thomas Y. Jimenez and Lawrence E. Lynch. The SEC alleges, among other things, that the Company recorded $119 million in revenue on the basis of fraudulent invoices created by Joseph Monterosso and Luis Vargas, two individuals formerly employed by the Company who were in charge of its wholesale telecommunications business. The SEC alleges that the Company violated Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11 and 13a-13 under the Exchange Act. The SEC seeks as relief a permanent injunction, civil penalties, and disgorgement with prejudgment interest. The Company has advised that it intends to vigorously defend itself in this action. The SEC lawsuit states that the staff is also considering recommending that the SEC authorize and institute proceedings to revoke the registration of Company’s securities pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Exchange Act. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

SANSWIRE CORP. (FORMERLY GLOBETEL COMMUNICATIONS CORP.) AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006


NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES

NATURE OF OPERATIONS
From 2002 to 2007 Sanswire Corp. (formerly known as Globetel Communications Corp.) ("Sanswire") (the “Company”) was involved in the following business sectors: stored value card services; wholesale telecommunications services; voice over IP; wireless broadband; and high altitude airships. These business units operated through various subsidiaries. The Company has discontinued operations in all but the high altitude airship sector.

On September 22, 2008 we filed a Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware pursuant to which our wholly owned subsidiary, Sanswire Corp., a Delaware corporation, was merged into us. As a result of the filing of the Certificate of Merger, our corporate name was changed from GlobeTel Communications Corp. to Sanswire Corp. The opportunities associated with Sanswire are related to the Lighter Than Air (LTA) Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) market. Sanswire seeks to build and run a UAV business that includes low-, mid- and high-altitude, lighter-than-air vehicles. Sanswire intends to provide customers advanced seamless wireless broadband capabilities and surveillance sensor suites utilizing its High Altitude Airship technology. 

Sanswire’s main products are airships, which provide a platform to transmit wireless capabilities from air to ground.

The High Altitude class of prospective airships are generally referred to as HAAs (High Altitude Airships) but have also been called HAPs and HALEs (High Altitude Platforms, High Altitude Long Endurance). They are being designed to be able to keep a station in one location in the Stratosphere, at approximately 65,000 ft for durations of 30 days or more.

ORGANIZATION AND CAPITALIZATION
The Company was organized in July 2002, under the laws of the State of Delaware. Upon its incorporation, Sanswire was a wholly-owned subsidiary of American Diversified Group, Inc. (ADGI). ADGI was organized January 16, 1979, under the laws of the State of Nevada. ADGI had two other wholly-owned subsidiaries, Global Transmedia Communications Corporation (Global), a Delaware corporation, and NCI Telecom, Inc. (NCI), a Missouri corporation.

On July 1, 2002, both Global and NCI were merged into ADGI. On July 24, 2002, ADGI stockholders approved a plan of reincorporation for the exchange of all outstanding shares of ADGI for an equal number of shares of the Company. Subsequently, ADGI was merged into the Company, which is now conducting the business formerly conducted by ADGI and its subsidiaries, and all references to ADGI in these financial statements now apply to Sanswire interchangeably.

In July 2002, pursuant to the reincorporation, the Company authorized the issuance of up to 1,500,000,000 (pre-split) shares of common stock, par value of $0.00001 per share and up to 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value of $0.001 per share.

In May 2005, the Company approved a reverse split of shares of common stock on a one for fifteen (1:15) basis and changed the number of shares authorized to 100,000,000. In the Company's annual shareholders meeting on August 1, 2005, the shareholders voted to increase the shares authorized from 100,000,000 to 150,000,000.

All common stock amounts in this report have been retroactively restated to account for the reverse stock split, unless otherwise noted.
 
33
 
In the Company's annual shareholders meeting on June 21, 2006, the shareholders voted to increase the shares authorized from 150,000,000 to 250,000,000.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The financial statements include the accounts of Sanswire Corp. ("Sanswire," the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Sanswire Networks, LLC(“Sanswire Networks”); GlobeTel Wireless Corp.; GlobeTel Wireless Europe GmbH, a German corporation, and Centerline Communications, LLC, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, EQ8, LLC, EnRoute Telecom, LLC, G Link Solutions, LLC, Volta Communications, LLC, and Lonestar Communications, LLC; High Valley Property Ltd., a British Virgin Islands corporation; as well as the accounts GTCC de Mexico, S.A. de C.V, which GlobeTel owns 99%.

Inter-company balances and transactions were eliminated in the consolidation.

GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $11,605,478 and a negative cash flow from operations of $2,286,113 for the year ended December 31, 2007, and had a working capital deficiency of $12,833,722 and a stockholders’ deficit of $13,224,722 at December 31, 2007.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to raise additional funds and implement its business plan. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Additional cash will still be needed to support operations. Management believes it can continue to raise capital from various funding sources, which when added to budgeted sales and current working capital, will be sufficient to sustain operations at its current level through December 31, 2008. However, if budgeted sales levels are not achieved and/or if significant unanticipated expenditures occur, or if it is unable to obtain the necessary funding, the Company may have to modify its business plan, reduce or discontinue some of its operations or seek a buyer for all or part of its assets to continue as a going concern. As of the date of this report the Company has continued to raise capital to sustain its current operations which have been reduced since January 1, 2008.  The Company will need to periodically seek investment to provide cash for operations until such time that operations provide sufficient cash flow to cover expenditures. (see also next paragraph)

On May 2, 2008, the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida against GlobeTel Communications Corp. (the “Company”) and three former officers of the Company, Timothy J. Huff, Thomas Y. Jimenez and Lawrence E. Lynch. The SEC alleges, among other things, that the Company recorded $119 million in revenue on the basis of fraudulent invoices created by Joseph Monterosso and Luis Vargas, two individuals formerly employed by the Company who were in charge of its wholesale telecommunications business. The SEC alleges that the Company violated Sections 5(a), 5(c), and 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Sections 10(b), 13(a), 13(b)(2)(A) and 13(b)(2)(B) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and Rules 10b-5, 12b-20, 13a-1, 13a-11 and 13a-13 under the Exchange Act. The SEC seeks as relief a permanent injunction, civil penalties, and disgorgement with prejudgment interest. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in this action. The staff is also considering recommending that the SEC authorize and institute proceedings to revoke the registration of Company’s securities pursuant to Section 12(j) of the Exchange Act. (also see Note 9)
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents.
 
34
 
BANK OVERDRAFT

The Company records any negative balances in its bank accounts as a bank overdraft. 

ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Trade and other accounts receivable are reported at face value less any provisions for uncollectible accounts considered necessary. As of December 31, 2006, the accounts receivable consists of a reimbursement from the Company’s Directors and Officers insurance for legal and accounting expenses that were paid above the Company’s deductible which was received in August 2007.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS
 
In connection with the sale of debt or equity instruments, we may enter into Registration Rights Agreements. Generally, these Agreements require us to file registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register common shares that may be issued on conversion of debt or preferred stock, to permit re-sale of common shares previously sold under an exemption from registration or to register common shares that may be issued on exercise of outstanding options or warrants.
 
These Agreements usually require us to pay penalties for any time delay in filing the required registration statements, or in the registration statements becoming effective, beyond dates specified in the Agreement. These penalties are usually expressed as a fixed percentage, per month, of the original amount we received on issuance of the debt or preferred stock, common shares, options or warrants. We account for these penalties as a contingent liability and not as a derivative instrument.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION

Revenues for voice, data, and other services to end-users are recognized in the month in which the service is provided. Amounts invoiced and collected in advance of services provided are recorded as deferred revenue. Revenues for carrier interconnection and access are recognized in the month in which the service is provided.

Sales of telecommunications networks are recognized when the networks are delivered and accepted by the customer. Sales of computer hardware, equipment, and installation are recognized when products are shipped to customers. Provisions for estimated returns and allowances are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Revenues on service contracts are recognized ratably over applicable contract periods. Amounts billed and collected before services are performed are included in deferred revenues.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes are computed under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement No. 109 (SFAS 109), Accounting for Income Taxes. SFAS 109 is an asset and liability approach that requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of the difference in events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements compared to the tax returns.

ADVERTISING AND MARKETING COSTS

Advertising and marketing costs are charged to operations in the period incurred. Advertising and marketing expense for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, were $24,087 and $230,329, respectively, and are included in "General and Administrative" in the consolidated statements of income (loss).
 
35
 
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Financial instruments, including cash, receivables, securities, accounts payable, and notes payable are carried at amounts which reasonably approximate their fair value due to the short-term nature of these amounts or due to variable rates of interest which are consistent with market rates.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK AND ECONOMIC DEPENDENCE

Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk, are cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company had cash balances of $32,278 and $4,243 as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. As of December 31, 2007, the Company had no balances in excess of federally insured limits.
 
The Company operates worldwide. Consequently, the Company's ability to collect the amounts due from customers may be affected by economic fluctuations in each of the geographical locations in which the Company provides its services.
 
USE OF ESTIMATES

The process of preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires the use of estimates and assumptions regarding certain types of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Such estimates primarily relate to unsettled transactions and events as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, upon settlement, actual results may differ from estimated amounts.
BASIC AND DILUTED NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE

Basic and diluted net loss per common share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. The basic and diluted net loss is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. In periods where losses are reported, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding excludes common stock equivalents because their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. If all outstanding options, warrants and convertible shares were to be converted or exercised as of December 31, 2007, the shares outstanding would be 178,910,697.
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company follows FASB Statement No. 144 (SFAS 144), "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS 144 requires that long-lived assets to be held and used are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the related carrying amount may not be recoverable. When required, impairment losses on assets to be held and used are recognized based on the fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of, if any, are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell.
 
STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 
On January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment , which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all stock-based awards made to employees and directors based on estimated fair values. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes the Company’s previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees . In March 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment , relating to SFAS No. 123(R). The Company has applied applicable provisions of SAB No. 107 in its adoption of SFAS No. 123(R).

The Company adopted SFAS No. 123(R) using the prospective transition method, which requires the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006, the first day of its year ended December 31, 2006. In accordance with this transition method, the Company’s consolidated financial statements for prior periods have not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of, SFAS No. 123(R). The Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 reflect the impact of SFAS No. 123(R). Upon adopting SFAS No. 123(R), for awards with service conditions and graded-vesting, a one-time election was made to recognize stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
 
Stock-based compensation expense recognized under SFAS No. 123(R) for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 were $1,667,107 and $321,729, respectively.  

The Company’s determination of fair value of share-based payment awards to employees and directors on the date of grant uses the Black-Scholes model, which is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. These variables include, but are not limited to our expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors.  Forfeitures are recognized as incurred.
 
The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued to non-employees for goods and services using the guidance of SFAS No. 123 and Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) No. 96-18: “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services,” whereby the fair value of such option and warrant grants is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the earlier of the date at which the non-employee’s performance is completed or a performance commitment is reached.
