PART I
ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS.
Narrative Description of the Business
Our History
We were originally incorporated as FSGI Corporation under the laws of the State of Florida in 1997 as a holding company for the purpose of acquiring Financial Standards Group, Inc. (FSG). That year FSGI Corporation acquired FSG, a Florida company organized in October 1989, to assist credit unions in performing financial services. FSG offered financial services to credit unions as a wholly-owned subsidiary until its sale in January 2000.
On December 21, 1998, FSGI Corporation, at the time a publicly traded company trading on the OTCBB as FSGI, acquired all of the outstanding common stock of The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The Martial Arts Network, Inc. The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc., a company organized under the laws of the State of Florida, was developed in 1996 by its parent company The Martial Arts Network, Inc. as an electronic forum dedicated to promoting education and awareness of martial arts through its web site. Upon issuance of shares, and options to purchase shares of FSGI Corporation's common stock to The Martial Arts Network, Inc., that company became the controlling stockholder of FSGI Corporation.
FSGI then changed its name to TMANglobal.com, Inc. ("TMAN") as the result of a merger between FSGI Corporation and The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc. on December 21, 1998.
Franchise Holdings was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2003. Franchise Holdings International, Inc. completed a merger with TMAN Global.com Inc. on April 30, 2003. This merger was in the nature of a change in domicile of the Florida corporation to the State of Nevada, as well as the acquisition of a new business. Since the inception of our current business operations, we have been in the business of acquiring franchise, license and distribution rights in new and emerging growth companies.
Operations
General
We are engaged in the business of marketing franchises. We currently possess such rights in a tanning and beauty salon.
At the present time, we have no plans to raise any additional funds within the next twelve months. Any working capital will be expected to be generated from internal operations. However, we reserve the right to examine possible additional sources of funds, including, but not limited to, equity or debt offerings, borrowings, or joint ventures. Limited market surveys have never been conducted to determine demand for our products and services. Therefore, there can be no assurance that any of its objectives will be achieved.
Nature of Products and Services
Our principal activities are to acquire franchise, license and distribution rights in new and emerging growth companies.
We currently have such rights to a tanning and beauty salon and are pursuing other franchise and business opportunities.
We currently have franchise, license and distribution rights to Endless Summer Tan- founded in 1999, is a tanning, hair, and beauty salon.
Markets
We plan to continue to market ourselves through the internet and using traditional methods such as print and other media. Currently, we have a marketing strategy, which uses the media, along with our web site, to market our products nationwide. We plan to add new accounts through direct solicitation, mass e-mail marketing, and participation in franchise industry trade shows.
Raw Materials
The use of raw materials is not now a material factor in our operations.
Customers and Competition
The franchise business is a highly competitive and fragmented industry, with no one single company or group of companies having a large market share. Our operational activities focus primarily on the franchise sales business, in which there is a great deal of competition. We anticipate that competition will come from a number of sources, many of which will have greater resources than we do. All franchisors in the United States are potential competitors. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to compete successfully over the short term or long term.
Employees
Currently, we employ one full-time person, our President. We may hire additional employees in the future to facilitate anticipated growth projections. We reimburse our employee for all necessary and customary business related expenses.
We have no plans or agreements which provide health care, insurance or compensation on the event of termination of employment or change in our control.
Proprietary Information
We own no proprietary information.
Government Regulation
We believe that governmental regulation will not be significant to us now or in the future.
Research and Development
We have never spent any amount in research and development activities.
Environmental Compliance
We believe that we are not subject to any material costs for compliance with any environmental laws.
How to Obtain our SEC Filings
We file annual, quarterly, and special reports, proxy statements, and other information with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). Reports, proxy statements and other information filed with the SEC can be inspected and copied at the public reference facilities of the SEC at 100 F Street N.E., Washington, DC 20549. Such material may also be accessed electronically by means of the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Certain statements in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements such as statements relating to future operating results, existing and expected competition, financing and refinancing sources and availability and plans for future development or expansion activities and capital expenditures. Such forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may significantly affect our liquidity and results in the future and, accordingly, actual results may differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those related to effects of competition, leverage and debt service financing and refinancing efforts, general economic conditions, and changes in applicable laws or regulations. The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report.
The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes included in this report.
Results of Operations
We had no revenue for the fiscal years ended September 31, 2011 or 2010.
Operating expenses during the year ended September 30, 2011 totaled $11,908, consisting of professional fees and other miscellaneous costs. Operating expenses during the year ended September 30, 2010 totaled $13,555, consisting of professional fees and other miscellaneous costs.
We had a net loss of $11,908 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, compared to a net loss of $13,555 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.
We believe that overhead cost in current operations should remain fairly constant.
Liquidity and Capital Resources.
At September 30, 2011, we had no cash in the bank.
Net cash used in operating activities was $(13,462) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, compared to cash used by operating activities of $(12,074) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.
Cash flows used or provided by investing activities was $-0- for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, compared to $-0- for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010.
Cash flows provided by financing activities was $12,792 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2011, compared to $12,744 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. The amounts for each year represented contributions from our President and two shareholders.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements with any party.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of results of operations and financial condition are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis, including those related to provisions for uncollectible accounts receivable, inventories, valuation of intangible assets and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
The accounting policies that we follow are set forth in Note 2 to our financial statements as included in this prospectus. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Franchise Holdings International, Inc.:
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Franchise Holdings International, Inc., a development stage company (“the Company”) as of September 30, 2011 and 2010 and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with 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. An audit 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 audit provides 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 Franchise Holdings International, Inc., as of September 30, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.
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 Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company’s significant operating losses raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Franchise Holdings International, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
(1) Nature of Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Organization
Franchise Holdings International, Inc. (referenced as “we”, “us”, “our” in the accompanying notes) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 2, 2003. FSGI Corporation was incorporated in the State of Florida on May 15, 1997, and in a reorganization on December 21, 1998 with another corporation named The Martial Arts Network On-Line, Inc. (originally incorporated in Florida on May 23, 1996) changed its name to TMAN Global.Com, Inc. Franchise Holdings International, Inc. and TMAN Global.Com, Inc. consummated a merger on April 30, 2003 whereby Franchise Holdings International, Inc. exchanged 1 common share for all the 90,861 outstanding common shares of TMAN Global.Com, Inc. The purpose of the transaction was a change of domicile. Pursuant to the merger terms, Franchise Holdings International, Inc. was the surviving corporation and TMAN Global.Com, Inc. ceased to exist. The accompanying financial statements include the activities of Franchise Holdings International, Inc. and its predecessor corporations. Currently we are engaged in evaluating franchise opportunities, and are considered to be in the development stage.
Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, the Company has a limited operating history and has suffered losses since inception. These factors, among others, may indicate that the Company will be unable to continue as a going concern.
In recent years, we have relied upon our president and certain shareholders to contribute capital to maintain our limited operations (see Notes 2 and 3). There is no assurance that these loans will continue, or that we will be successful in raising the capital required to continue our operations.
The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of assets and/or liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to meet our obligations on a timely basis, and, ultimately to attaining profitability.
Development Stage Company
We are in the development stage in accordance with the Accounting and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises Topic of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 915.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles permits management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Franchise Holdings International, Inc.
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to Financial Statements
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid securities with original maturities of three months or less when acquired, to be cash equivalents. We had no cash equivalents at September 30, 2011 and 2010.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and current liabilities approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of these items. These fair value estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment, and, therefore, cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. We do not hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes, nor do we utilize derivative instruments.
The FASB ASC clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. It also requires disclosure about how fair value is determined for assets and liabilities and establishes a hierarchy for which these assets and liabilities must be grouped, based on significant levels of inputs as follows:
|
|
Level 1:
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
|
|
Level 2:
|
Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability.
|
|
|
Level 3:
|
Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.
|
The determination of where assets and liabilities fall within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Earnings (Loss) per Common Share
We report earnings (loss) per share using a dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share excludes the impact of common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings (loss) per share utilizes the average market price per share when applying the treasury stock method in determining common stock equivalents. At September 30, 2011 and 2010, there were no variances between the basic and diluted loss per share as there were no potentially dilutive securities outstanding.
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes as required by the Income Tax Topic of the FASB ASC, which requires recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse.
We have analyzed filing positions in all of the federal and state jurisdictions where we are required to file income tax returns, as well as all open tax years in these jurisdictions. The Company has identified its federal tax return and its state tax return in Colorado as “major” tax jurisdictions, as defined. We are not currently under examination by the Internal Revenue Service or any other jurisdiction. The Company believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained on audit and does not anticipate any adjustments that will result in a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flow. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded.

Notes to Financial Statements
Fiscal Year-end
The Company operates on a September 30 year-end.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for under ASC 718 (formerly - SFAS No. 123 (revised 2004)), "Share-Based Payment", using the modified prospective method. ASC 718 requires the recognition of the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments in the financial statements and is measured based on the grant date fair value of the award. ASC 718 also requires the stock option compensation expense to be recognized over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (generally the vesting period).
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, FASB approved the FASB Accounting Standards FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) as the single source of authoritative non-governmental GAAP. All existing accounting standard documents, such as FASB, American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, Emerging Issues Task Force and other related literature, excluding guidance from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), have been superseded by the FASB ASC. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the FASB ASC has become non-authoritative. The FASB ASC did not change GAAP, but instead introduced a new structure that combines all authoritative standards into a comprehensive, topically organized online database. The FASB ASC was effective for us beginning September 15, 2009, and impacts our financial statements, as all future references to authoritative accounting literature are now referenced in accordance with the FASB ASC. There have been no changes to the content of our financial statements or disclosures as a result of implementing the FASB ASC during the years ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASC 605 (formerly - ASU 2009-13), “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605) — Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements.” This ASU eliminates the requirement that all undelivered elements must have objective and reliable evidence of fair value before a company can recognize the portion of the consideration that is attributable to items that already have been delivered. This may allow some companies to recognize revenue on transactions that involve multiple deliverables earlier than under the current requirements. Additionally, under the new guidance, the relative selling price method is required to be used in allocating consideration between deliverables and the residual value method will no longer be permitted. This ASU is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified beginning in fiscal 2011. A company may elect, but will not be required, to adopt the amendments in this ASU retrospectively for all prior periods. We are currently evaluating the requirements of this ASU and do not expect its provisions to have a material effect on our financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASC 605 (formerly -ASU 2009-13), “Revenue Recognition – Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.” This ASU is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early adoption is permitted. If a vendor elects early adoption and the period of adoption is not the beginning of the entity’s fiscal year, the entity should apply the amendments retrospectively from the beginning of the year of adoption. We do not expect the provisions of this pronouncement to have a material effect on our financial statements.

During the year ended September 30, 2010, our president and two shareholders contributed $12,744 to us for working capital to support our development stage operations. These contributions are included in the accompanying financial statements as Additional paid-in capital.
During the year ended September 30, 2009, an officer contributed $82,260 to us for working capital to support our development stage operations. In addition, the officer gave 26,000 shares of his own stock in Franchise Holdings International, Inc. to other debtors in settlement of $18,000 in stock subscriptions payable and $170,729 in notes payable, which the officer then contributed to capital. Total contributions of $270,989 are included in the accompanying financial statements as Additional paid-in capital.
(3) Notes Payable
At September 30, 2008, we had $271,759 in notes payable outstanding to non-related parties, currently due, bearing interest at rates from 10 to 12 percent per annum, and convertible into common stock at $1 to $3 per share. Accrued interest payable under the notes at September 30, 2008 was $238,580. During 2009, the noteholders agreed to cancel the conversion feature and settle their notes upon payment of cumulative settlement amounts totaling $25,650 in cash and 20,000 common shares. The note settlements were finalized in the first quarter of fiscal year September 30, 2009. An officer provided (out of his personal shares in Franchise Holdings International, Inc.) the 20,000 shares for the note settlement. Pursuant to the note settlement, the noteholders, who were owed a total of $510,339, were given 20,000 of the Company’s common shares (by an officer out of his personal holdings) in settlement of $170,729 and $25,650 in cash as full settlement, resulting in a gain on debt relief for the Company totaling $313,960.
In 2003, an $18,000 note with an automatic conversion feature was recorded as a stock subscription payable for 6,000 common shares upon conversion. During the year ended September 30, 2009, an officer provided (out of his personal shares in Franchise Holdings International, Inc.) the 6,000 shares to settle the stock subscription payable.

At September 30, 2011, deferred tax assets consisted of a net tax asset of $349,534, due to operating loss carryforwards of approximately $887,000, which was fully allowed for in the valuation allowance of $349,534. The valuation allowance offsets the net deferred tax asset for which there is no assurance of recovery. The changes in the valuation allowance for the year ended September 30, 2011 totaled $2,255. The net operating loss carryforward expires at various times through the year 2031.

Notes to Financial Statements
At September 30, 2010, deferred tax assets consisted of a net tax asset of $347,279, due to operating loss carryforwards of approximately $875,000, which was fully allowed for in the valuation allowance of $347,279. The valuation allowance offsets the net deferred tax asset for which there is no assurance of recovery. The changes in the valuation allowance for the year ended September 30, 2010 totaled $2,267.
The valuation allowance will be evaluated at the end of each year, considering positive and negative evidence about whether the deferred tax asset will be realized. At that time, the allowance will either be increased or reduced; reduction could result in the complete elimination of the allowance if positive evidence indicates that the value of the deferred tax assets is no longer impaired and the allowance is no longer required.
Should we undergo an ownership change as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, our net tax operating loss carryforwards generated prior to the ownership change will be subject to an annual limitation, which could reduce or defer the utilization of these losses.
(5) Contingency
On January 22, 2002 the Company received a notice from the Commonwealth of Kentucky Revenue Cabinet that was addressed to the Company's predecessor, FSGI Corporation, requiring the payment of $10,118 including balances on FSGI's corporation income and license accounts. The Company's management believed that it received the notice in error as the notice amounts assessed related to the Company's formation in 1998. In 2002 the Company attempted to resolve this matter with the Revenue Cabinet staff. After contacting the Revenue Cabinet in 2009, the Company believes that the Revenue Cabinet considers the case closed with no amounts due.
(6) Subsequent Events
We have evaluated the effects of all subsequent events from October 1, 2011 through December 16, 2011, the date the accompanying financial statements were available for use.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.

Accordingly, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2011.
