EXPLANATORY NOTE
We are amending our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 31, 2008 to comply with the recently adopted accounting pronouncements to include disclosure requirements as required by paragraphs 32 through 35 of SFAS 157, Fair Value Measurements and Management’s Assessment and Report of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. This information was inadvertently omitted from the Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
1. | BUSINESS. |
(a) General Development of Business. Since its inception in 1955, Twenty Services, Inc. (hereinafter sometimes referred to as the “Registrant” or “Company”), has been engaged principally in the general finance business, including the purchase and sale of real estate. In October 1980, the stockholders of the Registrant authorized the Board of Directors to redeploy the Registrant’s assets and reinvest the proceeds derived from such redeployment in a business other than the general finance business. During 1982 and 1983, the Company and an affiliate of Twenty Services Holding, Inc. (“Holding”), the owner of approximately 56% of the Registrant’s outstanding common stock, acquired an interest in the common stock of The Statesman Group, Inc., an insurance holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa (“Statesman”). The investment in Statesman was sold in 1994. The Registrant invested the proceeds in equities and fixed income securities that offer attractive returns commensurate with the risk assumed. In 1995, the Company acquired an interest in the common stock of American Equity Investment Life Holding Company, an insurance holding company based in Des Moines, Iowa (“American Equity”). As of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K the Registrant owns 237,000 shares of common stock of American Equity Investment Life Holding Company.
Depending upon the financial condition of the Registrant, the opportunities available to the Registrant and other matters, the Registrant may acquire majority interests in, and thereafter direct the operations of, other corporations or business entities engaged in one or more active businesses. The Registrant will continue to engage in certain aspects of the general finance business, including extending credit to certain persons and collecting its loan receivables. As of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, the Registrant does not believe that the composition of its investments and the nature of its business activities render it subject to the Investment Act of 1940, and the Board of Directors of the Registrant intend that any future acquisitions by and/or business activities of the Registrant will be structured in a manner so that the Registrant will not become subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940.

(b) Financial Information Regarding Industry Segments.
The Registrant is not required to supply information respecting industry segments. However, for certain information respecting the general finance and other business activities of the Registrant, see the Financial Statements of Twenty Services, Inc., including the notes thereto, which are included elsewhere herein.
(c) Narrative Description of Business.
General Finance Business. As stated above, the Registrant historically has engaged in the general finance business which has consisted of (i) extending credit to finance various real estate projects, including the purchase of single-family dwellings and commercial real estate, and to finance home improvements (the “Real Estate Loans”), and (ii) extending credit for business and miscellaneous purposes (the “Business and Miscellaneous Loans”).
Loan Portfolio. The following tabulation sets forth the outstanding balances of the Registrant’s loan portfolio as of December 31 of each year indicated below (including, if appropriate, unearned interest), classified according to the types of loans comprising the Registrant’s loan portfolio:
Type of Loans |
2007 | 2006 | 2005 | 2004 | ||||||||
Real Estate |
$ | — | $ | — | $ | — | $ | — | ||||
Business and Miscellaneous |
$ | 30,034 | $ | 28,212 | 11,628 | 60,595 | ||||||
Total: |
$ | 30,034 | $ | 28,212 | $ | 11,628 | $ | 60,595 | ||||
Of the Registrant’s aggregate loan portfolio as of December 31, 2007 100% was secured.
Interest Income. The following tabulation sets forth certain information respecting the Registrant’s net interest income for each of the years indicated:
2007 | 2006 | 2005 | |||||||
Interest Income |
$ | 90,811 | $ | 99,333 | $ | 69,832 | |||
Net Interest Income |
$ | 90,811 | $ | 99,333 | $ | 69,832 |
3
The Registrant utilizes the interest (actuarial) method in recognizing income attributable to interest charges. Accrual of interest income on finance receivables is suspended when a loan is contractually delinquent for 90 days or more and resumed when the loan becomes contractually current.
Other Business Activities. As described above, the Registrant’s stockholders have authorized the Registrant to redeploy the Registrant’s assets by conversion of such assets into cash and the reinvestment of the proceeds thereof in other business entities. The Registrant intends to invest in equities and fixed income securities that offer attractive returns commensurate with the risk assumed. In December 1996, the Company acquired a 19.75% interest in a newly formed insurance holding company, American Equity Investment Life Holding Company. The Chairman of the Des Moines, Iowa based company is also the Chairman of the Board of the Registrant. American Equity acquired a block of individual and group insurance policies in 1995 and 1996. In 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999 American Equity obtained additional equity financing from other investors which reduced the Company’s interest therein to 1.64%.
Competition. With respect to the general finance business, the Registrant is in direct competition with banks and other finance companies located within and without the State of Alabama. Many of these firms are substantially larger than the Registrant, have more capital available for lending activities, pursue more actively new loan activity and enjoy a distinct competitive advantage over the Registrant.
In 2003 American Equity made an initial public offering which decreased the Company’s interest therein to less than one percent. However, the offering had the effect of increasing the value of the Company’s investment by approximately $750,000.
Employees. During 2007and 2006 the Registrant employed two (2) persons to fill two (2) positions; one (l) of such positions was an executive position, and one (l) of such positions was a clerical/administrative position.
At February 2008, the Registrant employed two (2) persons to fill two (2) positions; one (l) of such positions was an executive position and one (l) of such positions was a clerical/administrative position.
The Registrant considers its relationship with its employees to be good.
4
Certain Government Regulations. The Registrant is subject to federal and state regulations relating to consumer credit financing and is subject to periodic examinations by officials of the State of Alabama charged with the responsibility of enforcing such regulations. The last examination of the Registrant by officials of the State of Alabama occurred on August 16, 2007. As a result of such examination, the Registrant was found to be in compliance with the regulations described above, and the Board of Directors of the Registrant believes that the Registrant presently is in compliance with such regulations. No material monetary claim has been made by any borrower against the Registrant respecting failure to comply with such regulations.
The Registrant is not subject in any material way to regulations relating to the discharge of materials into the environment.
5
Other Matters. The Registrant’s business is not seasonal.
No material portion of the contracts or subcontracts of the Registrant is subject to renegotiation by the United States Government.
The business of the Registrant is not dependent upon any raw materials, and as of the date of this annual report on Form 10-K, the Registrant does not own any material patent, trademark, license, franchise or concession. During the last two (2) years, the Registrant has not spent any money on research and development activities.
Due to the nature of its business, the Registrant does not have backlogs of orders believed to be firm. In addition, except as described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, the Registrant does not follow any specified practice with respect to working capital.
The Registrant is not dependent upon a single customer or related customers or a very few customers, the loss of any one (l) or more of which would have a materially adverse effect upon its business.
Financial Information Regarding Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales.
All of the Registrant’s business activities have been conducted within the southeastern portion of the United States.

PART II
5. | MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT’S COMMON STOCK AND RELATED SECURITY HOLDER MATTERS. |
(a) Market Information. No broker or dealer makes an active market in the shares of Common Stock or the Series A-Preferred Stock of the Registrant. Thus, there is no established trading market for the Common Stock or the Series A-Preferred Stock of the Registrant.
(b) Holder of Records. As of December 31, 2007 there were 1,635 holders of record of the outstanding Common Stock of the Registrant, and 983 holders of record of the outstanding Series A-Preferred Stock of the Registrant.
(c) Dividends. During the past two (2) years, no dividends have been paid respecting the shares of Common Stock of the Registrant. Under Alabama law, cash dividends may be paid only out of earned surplus (or retained earnings) of the Registrant.
As of December 31, 2007, the Registrant has issued and outstanding 505,110 shares of Series A-Preferred Stock, consisting of four (4) series of such Preferred Stock issued in 1980, 1981, 1982 and 1985. The holders of the Series A-Preferred Stock are entitled to cumulative dividends at the rate of $.07 per share per annum before any dividend may be declared or paid respecting the shares of Common Stock of the Registrant. During 2007 and 2006, the Registrant paid a dividend of $.07 per share respecting the outstanding Series A-Preferred Stock.
The Registrant intends, to the extent that future earnings and its capital surplus permit, to pay dividends respecting the shares of Series A-Preferred Stock. The Registrant believes it is unlikely that dividends will be paid in the future respecting the shares of Common Stock of the Company, although such payment will depend upon the future earnings and business prospects of the Registrant.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Liquidity and Capital Resources. During 2007 the Registrant’s liquidity remained virtually unchanged. The Company has no notes payable nor long term debt and does not anticipate the need for borrowing in the near future. The Registrant has sufficient cash and temporary cash investments to meet its short term liquidity needs. Should long term liquidity needs exceed cash and temporary cash investments, then the Registrant would dispose of marketable securities as it deems appropriate. Current trends and known demands and commitments do not create a need for liquidity in excess of the Company’s current abilities to generate liquidity.
The Company anticipates that its operating activities and investing activities will continue to generate positive net cash flows and that its financing activities will continue to use cash flows.
Results of Operations. The Registrant reported a net income of $9,435 in 2007 as compared to a net loss of $ 246 in 2006. The change was due primarily to income tax benefit in 2007. General and administrative expenses decreased from $148,081 in 2006 to $143,691 in 2007.
Impact of Inflation. Inflation has an impact upon the Registrant’s financial position. Inflationary pressures generally increase the cost of borrowed funds to the Registrant, rendering it less economic for the Registrant to borrow money for re-lending purposes.
8. | FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA. |
The financial statements of the Registrant are set forth at page F-3 through F-20 hereof and are incorporated herein by reference.
9. | DISAGREEMENTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE. |
There has been no disagreement between the Registrant and its independent certified public accountants respecting any matter of disclosure, during the past twenty-four (24) months.
Item 9A. | Controls and Procedures |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:
In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on their evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective in recording, processing, summarizing and reporting, on a timely basis, information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act.
Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in the Exchange Act Rule of 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control system is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’ management and the board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedure may deteriorate.
The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based upon criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on the assessment, management determined that we maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007 based on those criteria.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2007 that have materially affected, or are reasonable likely to materially affect, the Company’ internal control over financial reporting.
10. | RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
SFAS No. 157 emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore, a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, SFAS No. 157 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).
Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs may include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Twenty’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurement. As discussed above, SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Company’s financial assets and liabilities on January 1, 2008. In February 2008, the FASB reached a conclusion to defer the implementation of the SFAS No. 157 provisions relating to non-financial assets and liabilities until January 1, 2009. The FASB also reached a conclusion to amend SFAS No. 157 to exclude SFAS No. 13 Accounting for Leases and its related interpretive accounting pronouncements. SFAS No. 157 is not expected to materially affect how the Company determines fair value. We have adopted SFAS No. 157 effective January 1, 2008 for financial assets and financial liabilities and do not expect this adoption to have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial position but will enhance the level of disclosure for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.
11. | FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE AND INTERNAL CONTROLS |
Twenty Services, Inc. maintains internal controls over financial reporting, which generally include those controls relating to the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. As a small public company Twenty Services, Inc. is subject to the internal control reporting and attestation requirements under Section 13(a)-15 and 15(d)-15 of The Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
Twenty Services, Inc. has established processes to ensure appropriate disclosure controls and procedures are maintained. These controls and procedures as defined by the SEC are generally designed to ensure that financial information required to be disclosed in reports filed with the SEC is reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations, and that such information is communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Twenty Services, Inc.’s senior management is involved in the day-to-day operations of the Company. Management’s interaction and monitoring activities evaluate recent internal and external events to determine whether all appropriate disclosures have been made in reports filed with the SEC. The Forms 10-K and 10-Q are presented to the Board of Directors for approval. Financial results and other financial information are also reviewed with the Audit Committee annually.
As required by applicable regulatory pronouncements, the CEO and CFO review and make various certifications regarding the accuracy of Twenty Services’ periodic public reports filed with the SEC, as well as the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls over financial reporting.
Twenty Services, Inc.’s stock is not listed or traded and, therefore, not required to comply with corporate governance listing standards.

REPORT OF MANAGEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
We, as members of the Management of Twenty Services, Inc. (The “Company”), are responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. Twenty’s internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of the Company’s financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes self-monitoring mechanisms, and actions are taken to correct deficiencies as they are identified.
All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations and may not prevent or detect misstatements in the Company’s financial statements, including the possibility of circumvention or overriding of controls. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Twenty Services, Inc. assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, we used the criteria set forth by the Commission of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in its Internal Control Over Financial Reporting—Guidance For Small Public Companies.
Based upon our assessment, we believe and assert that, as of December 31, 2007, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective based on these criteria.

The Shareholders and the Board of Directors
Twenty Services, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Twenty Services, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in stockholders’ equity for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. 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 audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Twenty Services, Inc. at December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules of marketable securities for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006 are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Years Ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005
Note 1 – Accounting Policies
Income Recognition - Interest income from finance receivables is recognized using the interest (accrual) method. Accrual of interest income on finance receivables is suspended when a loan is contractually delinquent for 90 days or more and resumed when the loan becomes contractually current.
Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Credit Losses - Provisions for credit losses are charged to income in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance at a level considered adequate to cover the losses of principal and interest in the existing portfolio. The Company’s charge-off policy is based on a loan-by-loan review for all receivables that are charged off when they are deemed uncollectible.
Cash Equivalents - Holdings of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and investments in money market funds are considered to be cash equivalents.
Marketable Securities - On January 1, 1995, the Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities.”
Management determines the appropriate classification of its investment in debt and equity securities at the time of purchase and re-evaluates such determination at each balance sheet date. The Company’s securities are classified in two categories and accounted for as follows:
• | Securities Held-to-Maturity. Bonds, notes, certain preferred stocks and other debt securities for which the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are reported at cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts which are recognized in interest income using methods which approximate level yields over the period to maturity. |
• | Securities Available-for-Sale. Bonds, notes and certain preferred stocks not classified as held-to-maturity and common stocks are reported at fair value. |
Declines in the fair value of individual held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities below their cost that are other than temporary result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. The write-downs are included in earnings as realized losses.
Unrealized holding gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, on securities available-for-sale are reported as a net amount in a separate component of stockholders’ equity until realized.
Realized gains and losses on the sale of securities available-for-sale are determined using the specific-identification method.
Income Taxes - Deferred income taxes are recognized for the effects of temporary differences between financial statement and tax reporting.
Earnings Per Common Share - Earnings per common share are determined by dividing net income (loss), after giving effect to preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding for each of the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 was 1,283,068.

Note 2 – Nature of Operations, Risks, and Uncertainties
The Company is primarily engaged in the general finance business. The Company grants commercial and personal real estate loans and general business and personal loans to customers located primarily in Alabama. The majority of the loan portfolio is secured by various types of collateral including mortgages and security interests in equipment and other property with a significant concentration in loans collateralized by residential real estate.
Note 3 – Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments,” requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The following sets forth a comparison of fair values and carrying values of the Company’s financial instruments subject to the provisions of SFAS No. 107.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair values of financial instruments:
• | Short-term financial instruments are carried at their carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet that are reasonable estimates of fair values due to the relatively short period to maturity of the instruments. This approach applies to cash and temporary investments, finance receivables, notes receivable from related parties and other receivables. |
• | Marketable securities are valued at quoted market values. |
