**FORWARD-LOOKING
      STATEMENTS**





Certain
      statements made in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB are “forward-looking
      statements” (within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
      of 1995) regarding the plans and objectives of management for future operations.
      Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors
      that may cause actual results, performance or achievements of Carter Acquisition
      Corp. III (the “Company”) to be materially different from any future results,
      performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking
      statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current
      expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. The Company's plans
      and objectives are based, in part, on assumptions involving the continued
      expansion of business. Assumptions relating to the foregoing involve judgments
      with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market
      conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or
      impossible to predict accurately and many of which are beyond the control of
      the
      Company. Although the Company believes its assumptions underlying the
      forward-looking statements are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove
      inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance the forward-looking
      statements included in this Report will prove to be accurate. In light of the
      significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included
      herein particularly in view of the current state of our operations, the
      inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a statement by us or
      any
      other person that our objectives and plans will be achieved. Factors that could
      cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by
      such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the factors
      set
      forth herein under the headings “Business,” “Plan of Operation” and “Risk
      Factors”. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any
      forward-looking statements for any reason.

**PART
      I**





**Item
      1. Description of Business.**





**Introduction**





Carter
      Acquisition Corp. III (“we”, “us”, “our”, “Carter” or the “Company”) was
      incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 11, 2006 and maintains its
      principal executive offices at c/o Carter Securities LLC, 767 Third Avenue,
      27 th Floor,
      New York, NY 10017. Since inception, the Company has been engaged in
      organizational efforts and obtaining initial financing. The Company was formed
      as a vehicle to pursue a business combination through the acquisition of, or
      merger with, an operating business. The Company filed a registration statement
      on Form 10-SB with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on
      November 8, 2006, and since its effectiveness, the Company has focused its
      efforts to identify a possible business combination.





The
      Company, based on proposed business activities, is a “blank check” company. The
      SEC defines those companies as "any development stage company that is issuing
      a
      penny stock, within the meaning of Section 3(a)(51) of the Securities Exchange
      Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and that has no specific business
      plan or purpose, or has indicated that its business plan is to merge with an
      unidentified company or companies." Many states have enacted statutes, rules
      and
      regulations limiting the sale of securities of "blank check" companies in their
      respective jurisdictions. The Company is also a “shell company,” defined in Rule
      12b-2 under the Exchange Act as a company with no or nominal assets (other
      than
      cash) and no or nominal operations. Management does not intend to undertake
      any
      efforts to cause a market to develop in our securities, either debt or equity,
      until we have successfully concluded a business combination. The Company intends
      to comply with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for
      so
      long as we are subject to those requirements.





The
      Company was organized as a vehicle to investigate and, if such investigation
      warrants, acquire a target company or business seeking the perceived advantages
      of being a publicly held corporation. The Company’s principal business objective
      for the next 12 months and beyond such time will be to achieve long-term growth
      potential through a combination with an operating business. The Company will
      not
      restrict its potential candidate target companies to any specific business,
      industry or geographical location and, thus, may acquire any type of
      business.





**Competition**





The
      Company faces vast competition from other shell companies with the same
      objectives. The Company is in a highly competitive market for a small number
      of
      business opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a
      successful business combination. A large number of established and well-financed
      entities, including small public companies and venture capital firms, are active
      in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable target candidates
      for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater financial
      resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we do;
      consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible
      business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination.
      These
      competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and
      consummating a successful business combination.





**Employees**





We
      have
      no employees other than our sole officer who devotes only a limited amount
      of
      time to our business.





**Risk
      Factors**




**You
      should carefully review and consider the following risks as well as all other
      information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB, including our
      financial statements and the notes to those statements. The following risks
      and
      uncertainties are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and
      uncertainties of which we are currently unaware or which we believe are not
      material also could materially adversely affect our business, financial
      condition, results of operations, or cash flows. To the extent any of the
      information contained in this annual report constitutes forward-looking
      information, the risk factors set forth below are cautionary statements
      identifying important factors that could cause our actual results
      for various financial reporting periods to differ materially from those
      expressed in any forward-looking statements made by or on our behalf and could
      materially adversely effect our financial condition, results of operations
      or
      cash flows.**

***There
      may be conflicts of interest as a result of our management being involved with
      other blank check shell companies.***





Conflicts
      of interest create the risk that management may have an incentive to act
      adversely to the interests of the Company. Our management is currently involved
      with other blank check shell companies, and in the pursuit of business
      combinations, conflicts with such other blank check shell companies with which
      it is, and may in the future become, affiliated, may arise. If we and the other
      blank check shell companies that our management is affiliated with desire to
      take advantage of the same opportunity, then those members of management that
      are affiliated with both companies would abstain from voting upon the
      opportunity. In the event of identical officers and directors, the officers
      and
      directors will arbitrarily determine the company that will be entitled to
      proceed with the proposed transaction.





Further,
      Carter Securities LLC, a registered broker-dealer, may act as investment banker,
      placement agent or financial consultant to the Company or an acquisition
      candidate or may play some other role in connection with a potential merger
      or
      business combination transaction. John C. Lipman, our sole officer and director,
      as well as our sole stockholder, is currently the Chairman and sole owner of
      Carter Securities LLC. We cannot assure you that conflicts of interest among
      us,
      Carter Securities LLC and our sole stockholder will not develop.





***We
      have a limited operating history.***





We
      have a
      limited operating history and no revenues or earnings from operations since
      inception. We have no significant assets or financial resources. We will, in
      all
      likelihood, sustain operating expenses without corresponding revenues, at least
      until the consummation of a merger or other business combination with a private
      company. This may result in our incurring a net operating loss that will
      increase unless we consummate a business combination with a profitable business.
      We cannot assure you that we can identify a suitable business opportunity and
      consummate a business combination, or that any such business will be profitable
      at the time of its acquisition by us or ever.





***We
      have incurred and may continue to incur losses.***





Since
      September 11, 2006 (inception) through September 30, 2007, we have incurred
      a
      net loss of $(58,898). We expect that we will incur losses at least until we
      complete a merger or other business combination with an operating business
      and
      perhaps after such a combination as well. There can be no assurance that we
      will
      complete a merger or other business combination with an operating business
      or
      that we will ever be profitable.





***We
      face a number of risks associated with potential
      acquisitions.***





We
      intend
      to use reasonable efforts to complete a merger or other business combination
      with an operating business. Such combination will be accompanied by risks
      commonly encountered in acquisitions, including, but not limited to,
      difficulties in integrating the operations, technologies, products and personnel
      of the acquired companies and insufficient revenues to offset increased expenses
      associated with acquisitions. Failure to manage and successfully integrate
      acquisitions we make could harm our business, our strategy and our operating
      results in a material way.




4





***There
      is competition for those private companies suitable for a merger transaction
      of
      the type contemplated by management.***





The
      Company is in a highly competitive market for a small number of business
      opportunities which could reduce the likelihood of consummating a successful
      business combination. We are, and will continue to be, an insignificant
      participant in the business of seeking mergers with, joint ventures with and
      acquisitions of small private and public entities. A large number of established
      and well-financed entities, including small public companies and venture capital
      firms, are active in mergers and acquisitions of companies that may be desirable
      target candidates for us. Nearly all these entities have significantly greater
      financial resources, technical expertise and managerial capabilities than we
      do;
      consequently, we will be at a competitive disadvantage in identifying possible
      business opportunities and successfully completing a business combination.
      These
      competitive factors may reduce the likelihood of our identifying and
      consummating a successful business combination.





***Future
      success is highly dependent on the ability of management to locate and attract
      a
      suitable acquisition.***





The
      nature of our operations is highly speculative, and there is a consequent risk
      of loss of your investment. The success of our plan of operation will depend
      to
      a great extent on the operations, financial condition and management of the
      identified business opportunity. While management intends to seek business
      combination(s) with entities having established operating histories, we cannot
      assure you that we will be successful in locating candidates meeting that
      criterion. In the event we complete a business combination, the success of
      our
      operations may be dependent upon management of the successor firm or venture
      partner firm and numerous other factors beyond our control.





***Management
      intends to devote only a limited amount of time to seeking a target company
      which may adversely impact our ability to identify a suitable acquisition
      candidate.***




While
      seeking a business combination, management anticipates devoting very limited
      time to the Company's affairs. Our sole officer has not entered into a written
      employment agreement with us and is not expected to do so in the foreseeable
      future. This limited commitment may adversely impact our ability to identify
      and
      consummate a successful business combination.





***There
      can be no assurance that the Company will successfully consummate a business
      combination.***





We
      can
      give no assurances that we will successfully identify and evaluate suitable
      business opportunities or that we will conclude a business combination.
      Management has not identified any particular industry or specific business
      within an industry for evaluation. We cannot guarantee that we will be able
      to
      negotiate a business combination on favorable terms.





***The
      time and cost of preparing a private company to become a public reporting
      company may preclude us from entering into a merger or acquisition with the
      most
      attractive private companies.***





Target
      companies that fail to comply with SEC reporting requirements may delay or
      preclude acquisition. Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act require
      reporting companies to provide certain information about significant
      acquisitions, including certified financial statements for the company acquired,
      covering one, two, or three years, depending on the relative size of the
      acquisition. The time and additional costs that may be incurred by some target
      entities to prepare these statements may significantly delay or essentially
      preclude consummation of an acquisition. Otherwise suitable acquisition
      prospects that do not have or are unable to obtain the required audited
      statements may be inappropriate for acquisition so long as the reporting
      requirements of the Exchange Act are applicable.





***The
      Company may be subject to further government regulation which would adversely
      affect our operations.***





Although
      we are subject to the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, management
      believes we are not subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act
      of
      1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), since we are not engaged in the
      business of investing or trading in securities. If we engage in business
      combinations which result in our holding passive investment interests in a
      number of entities, we could be subject to regulation under the Investment
      Company Act. If so, we would be required to register as an investment company
      and could be expected to incur significant registration and compliance costs.
      We
      have obtained no formal determination from the SEC as to our status under the
      Investment Company Act and, consequently, violation of the Investment Company
      Act could subject us to material adverse consequences.




5





***Any
      potential acquisition or merger with a foreign company may subject us to
      additional risks.***





If
      we
      enter into a business combination with a foreign company, we will be subject
      to
      risks inherent in business operations outside of the United States. These risks
      include, for example, currency fluctuations, regulatory problems, punitive
      tariffs, unstable local tax policies, trade embargoes, risks related to shipment
      of raw materials and finished goods across national borders and cultural and
      language differences. Foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably
      from
      the United States economy in growth of gross national product, rate of
      inflation, market development, rate of savings, and capital investment, resource
      self-sufficiency and balance of payments positions, and in other
      respects.





***The
      Company may be subject to certain tax consequences in our business, which may
      increase our cost of doing business.***





We
      may
      not be able to structure our acquisition to result in tax-free treatment for
      the
      companies or their stockholders, which could deter third parties from entering
      into certain business combinations with us or result in being taxed on
      consideration received in a transaction. Currently, a transaction may be
      structured so as to result in tax-free treatment to both companies, as
      prescribed by various federal and state tax provisions. We intend to structure
      any business combination so as to minimize the federal and state tax
      consequences to both us and the target entity; however, we cannot guarantee
      that
      the business combination will meet the statutory requirements of a tax-free
      reorganization or that the parties will obtain the intended tax-free treatment
      upon a transfer of stock or assets. A non-qualifying reorganization could result
      in the imposition of both federal and state taxes that may have an adverse
      effect on both parties to the transaction.





***Our
      business will have no revenue unless and until we merge with or acquire an
      operating business.***





We
      are a
      development stage company and have had no revenue from operations. We do not
      expect to realize any revenue unless and until we successfully merge with or
      acquire an operating business.





***Because
      we may seek to complete a business combination through a “reverse merger”,
      following such a transaction we may not be able to attract the attention of
      major brokerage firms.***





Additional
      risks may exist since we expect to assist a privately held business to become
      public through a “reverse merger.” Securities analysts of major brokerage firms
      may not provide coverage of our Company since there is no incentive to brokerage
      firms to recommend the purchase of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share
      (the “Common Stock”). No assurance can be given that brokerage firms will want
      to conduct any secondary offerings on behalf of our post-merger company in
      the
      future.





***We
      cannot assure you that following a business combination with an operating
      business, our Common Stock will be listed on NASDAQ or any other securities
      exchange.***




Following
      a business combination, we may seek the listing of Common
      Stock on
      NASDAQ
      or the American Stock Exchange. However, we cannot assure you that following
      such a transaction, we will be able to meet the initial listing standards of
      either of those or any other stock exchange, or that we will be able to maintain
      a listing of Common
      Stock on
      either
      of those or any other stock exchange. After completing a business combination,
      until the Common
      Stock is
      listed
      on the NASDAQ or another stock exchange, we expect that the Common
      Stock would
      be
      eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board, another over-the-counter quotation
      system, or on the “pink sheets,” where our stockholders may find it more
      difficult to dispose of shares or obtain accurate quotations as to the market
      value of the Common
      Stock .
      In
      addition, we would be subject to an SEC rule that, if it failed to meet the
      criteria set forth in such rule, imposes various practice requirements on
      broker-dealers who sell securities governed by the rule to persons other than
      established customers and accredited investors. Consequently, such rule may
      deter broker-dealers from recommending or selling the Common
      Stock ,
      which
      may further affect its liquidity. This would also make it more difficult for
      us
      to raise additional capital following a business combination.




6





***Our
      sole stockholder may have a minority interest in the Company following a merger
      or other business combination with an operating
      business.***





If
      we
      consummate a merger or business combination with a company with a value in
      excess of the value of our Company and issue shares of Common
      Stock to
      the
      stockholders of such company as consideration for merging with us, our sole
      stockholder would own less than 50% of the Company after the business
      combination. The stockholders of the acquired company would therefore be able
      to
      control the election of our Board of Directors and control our Company.





***There
      is currently no trading market for our Common Stock, and liquidity of shares
      of
      our Common Stock is limited.***





Shares
      of
      our Common
      Stock are
      not
      registered under the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and
      accordingly there is no public trading market for the Common
      Stock .
      Further, no public trading market is expected to develop in the foreseeable
      future unless and until the Company completes a business combination with an
      operating business and the Company thereafter files a registration statement
      under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Therefore,
      outstanding shares of Common
      Stock cannot
      be
      offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred unless subsequently registered
      pursuant to, or exempt from registration under, the Securities Act and any
      other
      applicable federal or state securities laws or regulations. S hares
      of Common
      Stock cannot
      be
      sold under the exemptions from registration provided by Rule 144 under or
      Section 4(1) of the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), in accordance with the letter
      from Richard K. Wulff, Chief of the Office of Small Business Policy of the
      Securities and Exchange Commission’s Division of Corporation Finance, to Ken
      Worm of NASD Regulation, dated January 21, 2000 (the “Wulff Letter”). The Wulff
      Letter provides that certain private transfers of the shares of common stock
      also may be prohibited without registration under federal securities laws.
      The
      SEC has approved codifying certain aspects of the Wulff Letter and adjusting
      some of its provisions. The adjustments include allowing stockholders of a
      company that was formerly a shell company to be able to utilize the exemption
      from registration under Rule 144 under certain circumstances following such
      time
      as the company is no longer a shell company and certain disclosures have been
      completed.  The changes, which will apply retroactively to the
      purchasers, become effective on February 15, 2008, but are not effective as
      of this time.





Compliance
      with the criteria for securing exemptions under federal securities laws and
      the
      securities laws of the various states is extremely complex, especially in
      respect of those exemptions affording flexibility and the elimination of trading
      restrictions in respect of securities received in exempt transactions and
      subsequently disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or state
      securities laws.





***There
      are issues impacting liquidity of our securities with respect to the SEC’s
      review of a future resale registration statement.***





Since
      shares of our Common
      Stock issued
      prior to a business combination or reverse merger cannot currently, nor will
      they for a considerable period of time after we complete a business combination,
      be available to be offered, sold, pledged or otherwise transferred without
      being
      registered pursuant to the Securities Act, we will likely file a resale
      registration statement on Form SB-2 or Form S-1, or some other available form,
      to register for resale such shares of Common
      Stock .
      We
      cannot control this future registration process in all respects as some matters
      are outside our control. Even if we are successful in causing the effectiveness
      of the resale registration statement, there can be no assurances that the
      occurrence of subsequent events may not preclude our ability to maintain the
      effectiveness of the registration statement. Any of the foregoing items could
      have adverse effects on the liquidity of our shares of Common
      Stock .

In
      addition, the SEC has recently disclosed that it has developed internal informal
      guidelines concerning the use of a resale registration statement to register
      the
      securities issued to certain investors in private investment in public equity
      (PIPE) transactions, where the issuer has a market capitalization of less than
      $75 million and, in general, does not qualify to file a Registration Statement
      on Form S-3 to register its securities. The SEC has taken the position that
      these smaller issuers may not be able to rely on Rule 415 under the Securities
      Act (“Rule 415”), which generally permits the offer and sale of securities on a
      continued or delayed basis over a period of time, but instead would require
      that
      the issuer offer and sell such securities in a direct or "primary" public
      offering, at a fixed price, if the facts and circumstances are such that the
      SEC
      believes the investors seeking to have their shares registered are underwriters
      and/or affiliates of the issuer. It appears that the SEC in most cases will
      permit a registration for resale of up to one third of the total number of
      shares of common stock then currently owned by persons who are not affiliates
      of
      such issuer and, in some cases, a larger percentage depending on the facts
      and
      circumstances. Staff members also have indicated that an issuer in most cases
      will have to wait until the later of six months after effectiveness of the
      first
      registration or such time as substantially all securities registered in the
      first registration are sold before filing a subsequent registration on behalf
      of
      the same investors. Since, following a reverse merger or business combination,
      we may have little or no tradable shares of Common
      Stock ,
      it is
      unclear as to how many, if any, shares of Common
      Stock the
      SEC
      will permit us to register for resale, but SEC staff members have indicated
      a
      willingness to consider a higher percentage in connection with registrations
      following reverse mergers with shell companies such as the Company. The SEC
      may
      require as a condition to the declaration of effectiveness of a resale
      registration statement that we reduce or “cut back” the number of shares of
      common stock to be registered in such registration statement. The result of
      the
      foregoing is that a stockholder’s liquidity in Common
      Stock may
      be
      adversely affected in the event the SEC requires a cut back of the securities
      as
      a condition to allow the Company to rely on Rule 415 with respect to a resale
      registration statement, or, if the SEC requires us to file a primary
      registration statement.





***We
      have never paid dividends on our Common Stock.***





We
      have
      never paid dividends on our Common
      Stock and
      do
      not presently intend to pay any dividends in the foreseeable future. We
      anticipate that any funds available for payment of dividends will be re-invested
      into the Company to further its business strategy.





***The
      Company intends to issue more shares in a merger or acquisition, which will
      result in substantial dilution.***





Our
      Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of a maximum of
      75,000,000 shares of Common
      Stock and
      a
      maximum of 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.0001 per share
      (the
“Preferred Stock”). Any merger or acquisition effected by us may result in the
      issuance of additional securities without stockholder approval and the
      substantial dilution in the percentage of Common Stock held by our then existing
      stockholders. Moreover, the Common Stock issued in any such merger or
      acquisition transaction may be valued on an arbitrary or non-arm’s-length basis
      by our management, resulting in an additional reduction in the percentage of
      Common Stock held by our current stockholder. Our Board of Directors has the
      power to issue any or all of such authorized but unissued shares without
      stockholder approval. To
      the
      extent that additional shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock are issued
      in
      connection with a business combination or otherwise, dilution to the interests
      of our stockholder will occur and the rights of the holder of Common Stock
      might
      be materially and adversely affected.





***Our
      sole stockholder may engage in a transaction to cause the Company to repurchase
      his shares of Common Stock.***





In
      order
      to provide an interest in the Company to a third party, our sole stockholder
      may
      choose to cause the Company to sell Company securities to third parties, with
      the proceeds of such sale being utilized by the Company to repurchase his shares
      of Common Stock. As a result of such transaction, our management, stockholder(s)
      and Board of Directors may change.




8





***Our
      Board of Directors has the power to issue shares of Preferred Stock with certain
      rights without stockholder approval.***





Our
      Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares
      of Preferred Stock with designations, rights and preferences determined from
      time to time by its Board of Directors. Accordingly, our Board of Directors
      is
      empowered, without stockholder approval, to issue shares of Preferred Stock
      with
      dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting, or other rights which could adversely
      affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of the Common
      Stock .
      In the
      event of issuance, the Preferred Stock could be utilized, under certain
      circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change
      in
      control of the Company. Although we have no present intention to issue any
      shares of our authorized Preferred Stock, there can be no assurance that we
      will
      not do so in the future.





***Control
      by John C. Lipman.***





Our
      sole
      stockholder is John C. Lipman, who is also our sole officer and director. John
      C. Lipman currently owns all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of
      the
      Company. Consequently, this stockholder controls the operations of the Company
      and will
      have
      the ability to control all matters submitted to stockholders for approval,
      including:





·
            Election
                of the board of directors;





·
            Removal
                of any directors;





·
            Amendment
                of the Company’s certificate of incorporation or bylaws;
                and





·
            Adoption
                of measures that could delay or prevent a change in control or impede
                a
                merger, takeover or other business
                combination.





This
      stockholder will thus have complete control over our management and affairs.
      Accordingly, this ownership may have the effect of impeding a merger,
      consolidation, takeover or other business consolidation, or discouraging a
      potential acquirer from making a tender offer for our c ommon
      stock .





**Item
      2. Description of Property.**





The
      Company neither rents nor owns any properties. The Company utilizes the office
      space and equipment of its sole officer and director at no cost. Management
      estimates such amounts to be immaterial. The Company currently has no policy
      with respect to investments or interests in real estate, real estate mortgages
      or securities of, or interests in, persons primarily engaged in real estate
      activities .





**Item
      3. Legal Proceedings.**





Presently,
      there are not any material pending legal proceedings to which the Company is
      a
      party or as to which any of its property is subject, and no such proceedings
      are
      known to the Company to be threatened or contemplated against it.

**Common
      Stock**





Our
      Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 75,000,000 shares
      of Common Stock. Our Common Stock is not listed on a publicly-traded market.
      As
      of December 31, 2007, there was one holder of record of our Common
      Stock.

**Preferred

Our
      Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares
      of Preferred Stock. The Company has not yet issued any of the Preferred Stock.




**Dividend
      Policy**





The
      Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on Common Stock and does
      not
      intend to declare or pay any cash dividend in the foreseeable future. The
      payment of dividends, if any, is within the discretion of the Board of Directors
      and will depend on the Company’s earnings, if any, its capital requirements and
      financial condition and such other factors as the Board of Directors may
      consider.





**Securities
      Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans**





None.





**Recent
      Sales of Unregistered Securities**





The
      Company did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the
      Securities Act during the period covered by this Annual Report.





On
      September 11, 2006, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of Common Stock to
      John
      C. Lipman, our President, Secretary and sole director, for an aggregate purchase
      price equal to $25,000. The Company sold these shares of Common Stock under
      the
      exemption from registration provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act.





No
      securities have been issued for services. Neither the Company nor any person
      acting on its behalf offered or sold the securities by means of any form of
      general solicitation or general advertising. No services were performed by
      any
      purchaser as consideration for the shares issued.





**Item
      6. Management’s Discussion and Analysis or Plan of
      Operation.**





**Plan
      of Operation**





The
      Company has not realized any revenues from operations since inception, and
      its
      plan of operation for the next twelve months is to locate a suitable acquisition
      or merger candidate and consummate a business combination. The Company may
      need
      additional cash advances from its stockholder or loans from other parties to
      pay
      for operating expenses until the Company consummates a merger or business
      combination with a privately-held operating company. Although it is currently
      anticipated that the Company can satisfy its cash requirements with additional
      cash advances or loans from other parties, if needed, for at least the next
      twelve months, the Company can provide no assurance that it can continue to
      satisfy its cash requirements for such period.





Since
      our
      formation on September 11, 2006, our purpose has been to effect a business
      combination with an operating business which we believe has significant growth
      potential. We are currently considered to be a “blank check” company in as much
      as we have no specific business plans, no operations, revenues or employees.
      We
      currently have no definitive agreements or understanding with any prospective
      business combination candidates and have not targeted any business for
      investigation and evaluation nor are there any assurances that we will find
      a
      suitable business with which to combine. The implementation of our business
      objectives is wholly contingent upon a business combination and/or the
      successful sale of securities in the company.




10




As
      a
      result of our limited resources, we expect to effect only a single business
      combination. Accordingly, the prospects for our success will be entirely
      dependent upon the future performance of a single business. Unlike certain
      entities that have the resources to consummate several business combinations
      or
      entities operating in multiple industries or multiple segments of a single
      industry, we will not have the resources to diversify our operations or benefit
      from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses. A target business
      may be dependent upon the development or market acceptance of a single or
      limited number of products, processes or services, in which case there will
      be
      an even higher risk that the target business will not prove to be commercially
      viable.





Our
      sole
      officer is only required to devote a very limited portion of his time to our
      affairs on a part-time or as-needed basis. We expect to use outside consultants,
      advisors, attorneys and accountants as necessary, none of which will be hired
      on
      a retainer basis. We do not anticipate hiring any full-time employees so long
      as
      we are seeking and evaluating business opportunities.





We
      expect
      our present management to play no managerial role in the Company following
      a
      merger or business combination. Although we intend to scrutinize closely the
      management of a prospective target business in connection with our evaluation
      of
      a business combination with a target business, our assessment of management
      may
      be incorrect. We cannot assure you that we will find a suitable business with
      which to combine.





**Results
      of Operations**





The
      Company has not conducted any active operations since inception, except for
      its
      efforts to locate a suitable acquisition or merger transaction. No revenue
      has
      been generated by the Company during such period, and it is unlikely the Company
      will have any revenues unless it is able to effect an acquisition of or merger
      with another operating company, of which there can be no assurance.





**Off-Balance
      Sheet Arrangements**





The
      Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a
      current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in
      financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity,
      capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

To
      the
      Board of Directors


Carter
      Acquisition Corp. III





We
      have
      audited the accompanying balance sheet of Carter Acquisition Corp. III (a
      development stage company) (“the Company”) as of September 30, 2007, and the
      related statements of operations, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the
      year then ended and the period September 11, 2006 (inception) through September
      30, 2006, and the cumulative period September 11, 2006 (inception) through
      September 30, 2007. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial
      statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
      statements based on our audits.





We
      conducted our audits in accordance with 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 audits included consideration of internal
      control over financial reporting as a basis for designing auditing procedures
      that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing
      an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
      reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
      examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
      in
      the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
      significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
      financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
      reasonable basis for our opinion.





In
      our
      opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
      material respects, the financial position of Carter Acquisition Corp.
      III as of
      September 30, 2007 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
      the
      year ended September 30, 2007, the period September 11, 2006 (inception) through
      September 30, 2006, and the cumulative period September 11, 2006 (inception)
      through September 30, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally
      accepted in the United States of America.





As
      discussed in Note 3, certain conditions indicate that the Company may be unable
      to continue as a going concern. The accompanying financial statements do not
      include any adjustments to the financial statements that might be necessary
      should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

**(A
      Development Stage Company)**


**Notes
      to Financial Statements**


**September
      30, 2007**





**Note
      1 - Development Stage Company** **:**





Carter
      Acquisition Corp. III, a development stage company (the “Company”), was
      incorporated in the State of Delaware on September 11, 2006. The Company is
      looking to acquire an existing company or acquire the technology to begin
      operations.





**Note
      2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** **:**





The
      accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting
      principles generally accepted in the United States. Significant accounting
      policies follow:





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





Income
      Taxes :
      The
      Company utilizes the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under
      the
      liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based
      on
      the differences between financial reporting basis and tax basis of the assets
      and liabilities and are measured using enacted tax rates that will be in effect
      when the differences are expected to reverse. An allowance against deferred
      tax
      assets is recognized, when it is more likely than not, that such tax benefits
      will not be realized.





Loss
      per Common Share :
      Basic
      loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares
      outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per share includes potentially
      dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants, using various
      methods such as the treasury stock or modified treasury stock method in the
      determination of dilutive shares outstanding during each period. The Company
      does not have any potentially dilutive instruments.





Fair
      Value of Financial Instruments :
      The
      carrying value of current assets and liabilities approximate fair value due
      to
      their short term nature.





New
      Accounting Pronouncements :




In
      June
      2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FIN 48, Accounting for
      Uncertainty in Income Taxes, which will be effective for the Company’s year
      commencing October 1, 2007. The Company has not yet determined what the effect
      of the adoption of FIN 48 will have, if any, on its financial
      statements.

**Notes
      to Financial Statements**


**September
      30, 2007**





**Note
      2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont’d)** **:**





New
      Accounting Pronouncements (Cont’d) :




In
      September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (“FAS 157”), Fair Value Measurements,
      which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value
      in
      generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), and expands disclosures about
      fair value measurements. FAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements
      that require or permit fair value measurements. Prior to FAS 157, there were
      different definitions of fair value and limited guidance for applying those
      definitions in GAAP. Moreover, that guidance was dispersed among the many
      accounting pronouncements that require fair value measurements. Differences
      in
      that guidance created inconsistencies that added to the complexity in applying
      GAAP. The changes to current practice resulting from the application of FAS
      157
      relate to the definition of fair value, the methods used to measure fair value,
      and the expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. FAS 157 is effective
      for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
      2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company presently
      does
      not expect the adoption of FAS 157 to have an effect on its financial
      statements.





In
      February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 159 (“FAS 159”), The Fair Value Option for
      Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, which permits entities to choose
      to
      measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value which
      are not currently required to be measured at fair value. FAS 159 is effective
      for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
      2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company presently
      does
      not expect the adoption of FAS 159 to have an effect on its financial
      statements.





In
      December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 141R (“FAS 141R”), Business Combinations,
      which establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes
      and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired,
      the
      liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, goodwill
      acquired in the business combination or a gain from a bargain purchase. FAS
      141R
      is effective for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of
      the
      first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The
      Company presently does not expect the adoption of FAS 141R to have an effect
      on
      its financial statements.





In
      December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
      Financial Accounting Standards No. 160 (“FAS 160”), Noncontrolling Interests in
      Consolidated Financial Statements, which establishes accounting and reporting
      standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the
      deconsolidation of a subsidiary. FAS 160 is effective for financial statements
      issued for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, and interim
      periods within those fiscal years. The Company presently does not expect the
      adoption of FAS 160 to have an effect on its financial statements.





Management
      does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective
      accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the
      accompanying financial statements.

**Notes
      to Financial Statements**


**September
      30, 2007**





**Note
      3 - Going Concern** **:**





The
      accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company
      will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the recoverability of
      assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of
      business.





The
      Company has had no revenue and has incurred accumulated net losses from
      September 11, 2006 (inception) through the period ended September 30, 2007
      of
      $58,898. In addition, the Company’s development activities since inception have
      been financially sustained through equity financing.





The
      ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its
      ability to find a suitable acquisition/merger candidate, raise additional
      capital from the sale of common stock, receive additional paid-in capital from
      its shareholder and, ultimately, the achievement of significant operating
      revenues. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments
      that might be required should the Company be unable to recover the value of
      its

**Notes
      to Financial Statements**


**September
      30, 2007**





**Note
      5 - Income Taxes (Cont’d)** **:**





The
      Company has, resulting from deferred start-up costs, approximately $10,000
      and
      $1,000 in gross deferred tax assets at September 30, 2007 and 2006,
      respectively. A valuation allowance has been recorded to fully offset these
      deferred tax assets because the future realization of the related tax benefits
      is uncertain.





The
      difference between the statutory federal income tax rate of 34% and the
      effective tax rate of 0% is due to the entire tax asset being fully
      reserved.





**Note
      6 - Related Party Transactions** **:**





The
      Company utilizes the office space and equipment of its sole stockholder at
      no
      cost. Management estimates such amounts to be immaterial.

**Item
      8A. Controls and Procedures.**





Evaluation
      of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.




We
      maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that
      information required to be disclosed in our reports filed pursuant to the
      Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
      periods specified in the SEC’s rules, regulations and related forms, and that
      such information is accumulated and communicated to our principal executive
      officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely
      decisions regarding required disclosure.





As
      of
      September 30, 2007, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and
      with
      the participation of our principal executive officer and our principal financial
      officer of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure
      controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive
      officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure

(b)
      Significant Employees.





As
      of the
      date hereof, the Company has no significant employees.




(c)
      Family Relationships.





None.





(d)
      Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings.




There
      have been no events under any bankruptcy act, no criminal proceedings and no
      judgments, injunctions, orders or decrees material to the evaluation of the
      ability and integrity of any director, executive officer, promoter or control
      person of Company during the past five years.




**Compliance
      with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act**




Section 16(a)
      of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s directors and officers, and persons
      who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity
      securities, to file reports of beneficial ownership and changes in beneficial
      ownership of the Company’s securities with the SEC on Forms 3, 4 and 5.
      Officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by SEC
      regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) forms
      they file.




Based
      solely on the Company’s review of the copies of the forms received by it during
      the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007 and written representations that no
      other reports were required, the Company believes that the no persons who,
      at
      any time during such fiscal year, was a director, officer or beneficial owner
      of
      more than 10% of Common Stock failed to comply with all Section 16(a)
      filing requirements during such fiscal year.





**Code
      of Ethics**





We
      have
      not adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our principal
      executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer
      or
      controller, or persons performing similar functions because there is only one
      person involved in the management of the Company and he devotes only a limited
      amount of time to our business.





**Nominating
      Committee**





We
      have
      not adopted any procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees
      to
      our Board of Directors.





**Audit
      Committee**





The
      Board
      of Directors acts as the audit committee. The Company does not have a qualified
      financial expert at this time because it has not been able to hire a qualified
      candidate. Further, the Company believes that it has inadequate financial
      resources at this time to hire such an expert. The Company intends to continue
      to search for a qualified individual for hire.
