1. BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
Megola,
Inc. was incorporated in Ontario, Canada on August 28, 2000 as Corporation No.
1375595. It was renamed Megola, Inc. on December 21, 2001. Megola was formed to
sell physical water treatment devices to residential, commercial, industrial and
agricultural end-users in the United States, Canada and other international
locations under a license granted by the German manufacturer, Megola GmbH.
Initial operations and sales began in October 2000.
On
November 26, 2003, Megola was acquired by SuperiorClean, Inc. in a transaction
accounted for as a reverse acquisition. Megola’s stockholders were issued
13,389,591 SuperiorClean shares in exchange for 100% of the outstanding common
and preferred stock of Megola, plus $250,000 in cash and $200,000 in notes
payable. Two major stockholders of SuperiorClean and two other persons then
signed consulting contracts for 1,250,000 common shares. Prior to the merger,
SuperiorClean had no assets or operations. SuperiorClean’s name was later
changed to Megola, Inc.
Our
ScaleGuard Systems products are sold under a license granted by the German
manufacturer, Megola GmbH. Under the terms of our agreement with Megola GmbH, we
are the exclusive distributor of ScaleGuard devices in North America, Mexico,
and Asia excluding India. We may not sell competing devices without the
permission of Megola GmbH. Prices we pay are established by Megola GmbH and may
be changed from time to time at the discretion of Megola GmbH. The agreement has
no termination date, but may be terminated for cause as defined in the
agreement. As of June 30, 2006 we have now independently acquired certain
additional patents used in our products directly from the owners of Megola
GmbH.
For
fiscal year ended July 31, 2010 2% of our revenues were generated from sales of
ScaleGuard products under our agreement with Megola GmbH (Germany).
Business
Our
principal executive offices are located at 704 Mara Street, Suite 111, Point
Edward, Ontario N7V 1X4. Our telephone number is (519) 336-0628.
Our
principal product is our ScaleGuard Systems. Megola’s ScaleGuard technology cost
effectively conditions hard water while also eliminating the historical build-up
of scale caused by hard water in residential, commercial and industrial
applications.
ScaleGuard
units are a one-time capital cost as there are no ongoing chemical additives
required and since the units have no moving parts they are essentially
maintenance free. Cost savings on chemical treatments and the associated labor
make ScaleGuard cost effective. ScaleGuard units use electromagnetic technology
to condition and soften water, both preventing the ongoing build-up of scale and
eliminating historical scale build-up in water delivery systems and machinery.
Rather than attempting to prevent - by removing or adding chemicals - the
natural tendency of hard water to form scale, ScaleGuard treatment actually
assists and encourages scale formation by electronic means. The coils that are
wrapped on the exterior of the water pipe introduce variable, high frequency
magnetic impulses that alter the properties of the water in such a manner that
the scale remains suspended in the water rather than forming on surfaces within
the water system. These suspended crystals of scale will also carry away -
slowly but surely - any scale that already exists in the system.
Due to
excessive scale build-up pipes, showers, bathtubs, water heaters, spas, boilers,
nozzles, valves, heat exchange compressors and other equipment need to be
prematurely replaced. Scale can also reduce water flow and pressure and
negatively impact the ability of heating elements. The advantage of ScaleGuard
is that it can be installed on any pipe material in any home or building and
does not require chemical agents and their associated costs and
dangers.
We also
sell air purification, microbiological control and waste water treatment
products.
Air
issues: Airborne germs that result in asthma, flu and colds
Water
(Microbiological) Issues:
Unsanitary
water may be dangerous due to bacteria, viruses, pathogens such as e-coli,
giardia, cryptosporidium.

At July
31, 2010 we had an accumulated deficit of $7,830,207. We had a net loss of
$1,956,432 in fiscal year 2010. Our independent auditors have indicated that
there is substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern over
the next twelve months.
During
the year ending July 31, 2010 our revenues decreased from $516,968 for 2009 to
$336,822 for the year ended July 31, 2010.
PRINCIPAL
PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
Our
principal product is our ScaleGuard Systems. Megola’s ScaleGuard technology cost
effectively conditions hard water while also eliminating the historical build-up
of scale caused by hard water in residential, commercial and industrial
applications. ScaleGuard units use a revolutionary electromagnetic technology to
condition the soften water, both preventing the ongoing build-up of scale and
eliminating historical scale build-up in water delivery systems and
machinery.
Megola,
Inc. is a leading solution provider in physical water treatment, microbiological
control, wastewater treatment and air purification. Our environmentally
friendly, technologically advanced product lines have us positioned at the
forefront of environmental air and water treatment. Our experience in these
fields allows us to provide tailor-made solutions to our clients using the
technology available to us. For more information on Megola products, please go

THE
SCALEGUARD SYSTEM
Description
of ScaleGuard:
Traditionally,
hard water problems - the underlying cause of scale - have been solved with
ion-exchange (salt) water softeners or chemical treatments. These solutions are
often environmentally unfriendly, time-consuming and expensive.
Megola’s
scientists have invented a deceptively simple-looking box containing a
computer-programmable chip that delivers low-voltage, high-frequency magnetic
impulses that can alter the scale-forming properties of water. The company’s
revolutionary solution prevents new scale formation, while eliminating previous
scale build-up.
ScaleGuard is a non-invasive,
physical water treatment device. That is, it does not make any direct contact
with the water, and it neither adds chemicals to nor removes chemicals from the
water.
Due to
the high technological nature of our systems and limited knowledge of the
technical functions by our consumers, Megola, at times, installs systems on
trial basis with prospective industrial customers in an effort to collect data
and prove ScaleGuard’s reliability and success. Megola is confident these trial
installation situations will convert to sales, while increasing product
exposure.
We no
longer offer residential trials. We encourage our dealers to install systems for
their personal use. For commercial and industrial installations we may install
as part of a pilot project with a predetermined time schedule. See following
example:
A
Southwestern Ontario refinery (Suncor) was having a scaling issue with a four
bank tube and shell exchanger. This exchanger was undersized when designed and
needed cleaning every 8-10 weeks as after 10 weeks there was no heat
exchange taking place at all. Megola offered a trial of its ScaleGuard
electronic conditioner for 3 months. The exchanger was cleaned as per its
regular maintenance and the ScaleGuard system
was installed. The operators said they would know within 4 weeks if the
ScaleGuard system
was keeping the exchanger from fouling as the performance of the exchanger
to cool the product was well documented. After 4 weeks there was no loss of
cooling. Normally after an 8 week period this exchanger would lose almost all of
its ability to cool. However with the ScaleGuard system
installed in this exchanger never needed descaling and had only lost one
degree of cooling over the next 21 months (90 weeks). It was approximated that
the refinery saved $60,000 in costs during the time that
the ScaleGuard was in
use. The client purchased the systems.
We have
no retail suggested price, as our dealers offer their own rebates, incentives,
and volume discounts. It is our intention never to undercut our own
dealers.
We are
currently developing a revised business plan to deploy our ScaleGuard devices
through our distribution network throughout the world. We believe that the
increasing data that we have been collecting, and continue to collect on our
systems, and the increasing market exposure we have been getting through our
satisfied customers, can be used as sales tools for our
distributors.
5
ScaleGuard
Models:
We
currently have eight models of ScaleGuard devices, all of which have been used
in trials and sold to customers that have hard water or scale problems. Over the
years, Megola has sold these units all over the world, ranging from residential
applications to large industrial applications. The principal differences between
the eight models, other than cost, are that they are designed to work with
different water flows and pipe sizes.
The final
cost of the individual units may vary, as they may be designed for certain
customers to perform differently based on their specific needs. Also, depending
on the geographic region, some distributors may sell the ScaleGuard products for
more than Megola’s suggested retail price.

ScaleGuard devices were designed and custom manufactured in Germany under the
direction of Megola GmbH. The technology of the product is owned by Megola GmbH
and is protected under intellectual/ software property rights. The units are
pre-assembled in Germany and are then shipped to China where the final assembly
is completed and packaged.

AirGuardian
Power Filter
The
AirGuardian Power Filter uses an active electromagnetic field to magnetize both
airborne particles and the fibers of the disposable filter pad. This creates a
virtual "force field" within the ductwork, capturing many of the smallest, most
dangerous to breathe submicron particles. This 1" filter is a very cost
effective and easy to maintain electronic air cleaner and is an essential
component of any air purification system. Under normal operating conditions,
each disposable filter pad remains at peak operating efficiency for about four
months before needing to be replaced.

Reclassification
Certain

Penny Stock
Considerations
Our
shares will be "penny stocks" as that term is generally defined in the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less
than $5.00. Our shares thus will be subject to rules that impose sales practice
and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions
involving a penny stock.
Under the
penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other
than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special
suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the
purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the
broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth in
excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $100,000 individually or
$300,000 together with his or her spouse is considered an accredited investor.
In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required
to:
*
|
Deliver,
prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule
prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commissions relating to the penny
stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise
exempt;
|
*
|
Disclose
commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered
representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the
securities;
|
*
|
Send
monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the
penny stock held in a customer's account, the account's value and
information regarding the limited market in penny stocks;
and
|
*
|
Make
a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable
investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written agreement
to the transaction, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the
customer's account.
|
Because
of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt
to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling
stockholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and
have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary
market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede
the sale of our securities, if our securities become publicly traded. In
addition, the liquidity for our securities may be decreased, with a
corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our shares in all
probability will be subject to such penny stock rules and our stockholders will,
in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities.
11
Holders
As of
July 31, 2010, we had 157 holders of record of our common stock, 82 holders of
record of our Preferred Series A, and 3 holders of our Preferred Series B
stock. As of July 31, 2010, we had 1,008 NOBO’s on
record.
Dividends
We have
not declared any cash dividends on our common stock since our inception and do
not anticipate paying such dividends in the foreseeable future. We plan to
retain any future earnings for use in our business. Any decisions as to future
payments of dividends will depend on our earnings and financial position and
such other facts, as the board of directors deems relevant.
Reports
to Stockholders
We have
become subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 and will file periodic reports, proxy statements and other
information with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We intend to
voluntarily send an annual report with audited consolidated financial statements
to our security holders.

Management’s
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
This
Annual Report contains forward-looking statements about Megola, Inc.'s (the
Company” or “Megola”) business, financial condition and prospects that reflect
management's assumptions and beliefs based on information currently available.
We can give no assurance that the expectations indicated by such forward-looking
statements will be realized. If any of our management's assumptions should prove
incorrect, or if any of the risks and uncertainties underlying such expectations
should materialize, Megola's actual results may differ materially from those
indicated by the forward-looking statements.
The key
factors that are not within our control and that may have a direct bearing on
operating results include, but are not limited to, acceptance of our services,
our ability to expand our customer base, management’s ability to raise capital
in the future, the retention of key employees and changes in the regulation of
our industry.
There may
be other risks and circumstances that management may be unable to predict. When
used in this Annual Report, words such as, "believes," "expects," "intends,"
"plans," "anticipates," "estimates" and similar expressions are intended to
identify forward-looking statements, as defined in Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, although there may be certain forward-looking statements
not accompanied by such expressions.
The safe
harbors of forward-looking statements provided by Section 21E of the Exchange
Act are unavailable to issuers of penny stock. As we issued securities at a
price below $5.00 per share, our shares are considered penny stock and such safe
harbors set forth under the Reform Act are unavailable to us.
Special
Information Regarding Forward Looking Statements
Some of
the statements in this report are “forward-looking statements.” These
forward-looking statements involve certain known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance
or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance
or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These
factors include, among others, the factors set forth above under “Risk Factors.”
The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” and similar
expressions identify forward-looking statements. We caution you not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation
to update and revise any forward-looking statements or to publicly announce the
result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements in this
document to reflect any future or developments. However, the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 is not available to us as a penny stock issuer and
thus we may not rely on the statutory safe harbor from liability for
forward-looking statements.
Overview
Megola,
Inc. is committed to solving environmental problems without the use of harsh
chemicals that, in the long run, can have deleterious effects on company budgets
and our environment. Megola, Inc. is the exclusive worldwide distributor for
Megola GmbH, a German company that designs and manufactures the ScaleGuard
series of physical water treatment equipment. Megola, Inc. has created a
distribution network throughout the world.
Since the
introduction of the ScaleGuard line of physical water treatment products, Megola
has identified the need for a more comprehensive approach to
environmentally-friendly water treatment. Now, five years later, Megola has
obtained rights to market and distribute technologically advanced products for
the industrial, commercial, residential and agricultural
markets.

Current
Results of Operations and Financial Status
Results
of Operations:
Our
revenues are difficult to forecast and may vary significantly from quarter to
quarter and year to year. In addition, our expense levels for each quarter are,
to a significant extent, fixed in advance based upon our expectation as to the
net revenues to be generated during that quarter. We therefore are generally
unable to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected
shortfall in net revenues. Further, as a result of these factors, any delay in
product introductions, whether due to internal delays or delays caused by third
party difficulties, or any significant shortfall in demand in relation to our
expectations, would have an almost immediate adverse impact on our operating
results and on ability to maintain profitability in a quarter.
Comparison
of the year ended July 31, 2010 with the year ended July 31, 2009.
During
the year ending July 31, 2010 our revenues decreased from $516,968 for 2009 to
$336,822 for the year ended July 31, 2010, a decrease of 34.85% over the prior
year. Our revenues for the year ended July 31, 2010 vs. year ended July 31, 2009
decreased due to a royalty payment based on a North American Distribution
Agreement from 2009.
Cost of
sales consists of direct manufacturing costs and applied overhead expenses for
our cost of raw materials to manufacture the ScaleGuard, Hartindo and other
systems. Cost of sales increased to $99,254 and, as a percentage of revenues,
increased to 327.52% in the year ended July 31, 2010, as compared to $23,216 and
19.84% of revenue for the year ended July 31, 2009. The overall increase in the
cost of sales during 2010 is due to the increase of actual sales with no royalty
payments collected in which royalty payments do not incur any costs of sales. In
note 3(k) we indicated a reduction to inventory during the year-end July 31,
2007. Even though these items have been slow to move, they are still salable and
there is little concern with obsolescence. Future product sales of these slow
moving items will have no corresponding cost of sales due to the reduction
entered above. During the year ended July 31, 2010, $nil (2009-$400,000) of our
revenues were generated from royalties based on a North American Distribution
Agreement. When royalty payments are received, we do not incur any cost of
sales.
General
and administrative (operating) expenses increased 21.41% to $878,425 during 2010
from $723,502 in 2009. The overall increase in general and administrative
(operating) expenses is due to consulting fees that aided in our product
expansion and sales.
Interest
expense decreased 77.12% in 2010 to $5,481 from $23,960 in 2009, because of the
Company's decreased interest on stockholder loans during the year.
It is the
opinion of the management that the Intangible Asset – Distribution Rights
acquired at May 2007 through the issuance of 30,000,000 common shares is fully
impaired and that the fair market value of the asset should be written off due
to the low level of sales attributed to the asset. Our sales forecast for year
ended July 31, 2010 based on contractually binding agreements entered into was
$5.2 million while actual sales were $ 336,822. The considerable
underperformance by our distribution groups relative to their committed
obligations under Agency Agreements and the subsequent expiry of these
agreements leaves the fair market value of the Intangible Asset in question and
as a result viewed as fully impaired.
Accumulated
other comprehensive loss decreased 71.52% in 2010 to $26,428 from $92,802, which
is directly attributable to the foreign currency translation
adjustment.
Net
Income (Loss)
For the
reasons outlined above, we realized a net loss of $1,956,432 for the year ended
July 31, 2010 as compared to a net loss of $258,175 for the year ended July 31,
2009, an increase of 657.79%.

ROYALTY
INCOME:
One of
the company's manufacturers also sells certain Megola products directly
throughout Asia. By agreement, Megola is entitled to a royalty payment for each
of these units. Megola recognizes royalty revenue upon fulfillment of its
contractual obligations and upon sale by the manufacturer of royalty-bearing
products.
On
January 19, 2009 the Company entered into a Distributorship, Sales Agency and
Royalty Agreement with Vulcan Technologies LLC. Vulcan is granted
exclusive distribution and sales rights for the Hartindo line of anti-fire
products in Canada and Mexico as well as co-exclusive rights similarly in the
United States for the Railroad Industry for a ten year term. Megola
receives payments as follows. A payment of $400,000 within five days of
the execution of the Agreement (funds have been received) and an additional
$350,000 due 90 days following the date of this Agreement, provided that, under
various existing contracts, Megola has purchased no less than 100,000 gallons of
Hartindo AF21 in its fully diluted form.
Vulcan
will also pay a commission payment of 25% of Vulcan’s profits on products sold
by any party in the Railroad Industry. They also commit to generating no
less than $3 million on or before the second anniversary of the Agreement.
They also commit to a 15% increase in gross sales for each year
thereafter.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
The
consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ending July 31, 2010
have been prepared assuming we continue as a going concern.
At July
31, 2010, we had an accumulated deficit of $7,830,207.
Cash and
cash equivalents at July 31, 2010 were $nil and $nil at July 31, 2009. Our
inventory decreased for the same period from $241,023 to $209,334 or
13.15%;
Megola is
also pursuing other financial resources to augment its cash requirements for
retirement of debt, expansion of operations and acquisition of suitable
companies and products.
Our
success and ongoing financial viability is contingent upon its selling of our
products and the related generation of cash flows. We evaluate our liquidity and
capital needs on a continuous basis and based on our requirements and capital
market conditions may, from time to time, raise working capital through
additional debt or equity financing. There is no assurance that such financing
will be available in the future to meet our additional capital needs, or that
any such terms or conditions of any such financing would be favorable to us.
Both our current growth and expanded business involve significant financial risk
and require significant capital investment.
During
2010, three customers accounted for 96% of sales respectively (2009 – one
customer accounted for 70%) and two vendors accounted for 97% of purchases (2009
- 99%).
Our
ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to raise
funds to implement our planned development; however we may not be able to raise
sufficient funds to do so. Our independent auditors have indicated that here is
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern over the next
twelve months. Our poor financial condition could inhibit our ability to achieve
our business plan. Because we are currently operating at a substantial loss, an
investor cannot determine if we will ever become profitable.
In order
to become profitable, we will still need to secure additional debt or equity
funding. We hope to be able to raise additional funds from an offering of our
stock in the future. However, this offering may not occur, or if it occurs, may
not raise the required funding. There are no preliminary or definitive
agreements or understandings with any party for such financing. We cannot
predict when, if ever, that will happen.

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Board of Directors and
Stockholders
of Megola, Inc.
We have
audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Megola, Inc as of July
31, 2010 and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity (deficiency), and cash flows
for each of the years then ended. Megola, Inc.’s management is responsible for
these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over
financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our
opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Megola, Inc. as of July 31, 2010
and 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the
years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America.
The
accompanying financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in note 2 to the
consolidated financial statements, the continuance of the Company is dependent
on its future profitability and the ongoing support of its stockholders,
affiliates and creditors. Management’s plans as to these matters are also
described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments
that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty

NATURE
OF BUSINESS
|
Megola,
Inc. ("Megola" or "the Company") was incorporated in Ontario, Canada on
August 28, 2000. Megola was formed to sell physical water treatment devices
to a wide range of end-users in the United States, Canada and internationally
under a license granted by Megola GmbH in Germany.
The
Company presently distributes the following product lines: physical
water treatment; water filtration; air purification; microbiological
control; waste water treatment and fire safety.
2.
|
GOING
CONCERN
|
These
consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis
which contemplates the realization of assets and the payment of liabilities in
the ordinary course of business. As shown in the accompanying consolidated
financial statements, Megola incurred recurring net losses of $1,956,432 and
$258,175 in the 2010 and 2009 fiscal years respectively, and negative
cash flows from operations of $221,738 and a deficit of $7,830,207 as at
July 31, 2010. These conditions create an uncertainty as to Megola's ability to
continue as a going concern. At present, the Company does not have sufficient
resources to fund its current working capital requirements. The Company's
financing plans include obtaining additional capital through various debt and/or
equity financing arrangements to service its current working capital
requirements; any additional or unforeseen obligations and to fund the
implementation of future opportunities. Should the Company be unable to continue
as a going concern, it may be unable to realize the carrying value of its assets
and to meet its liabilities as they become due. These consolidated financial
statements do not include any adjustments for this uncertainty.
Management
has undertaken the following initiatives that it believes will be instrumental
in leading to better management of cash flows and more profitable
operations:
• Outsourcing of much of the
manufacturing activities has been established along with appropriate analysis
ensuring cost competitiveness to minimize capital outlay and provide for rapid
potential growth in production levels
• Establishment of policies and
procedures for production processes to ensure timely delivery of product to
distribution groups and customers
• Established relationships with
Distribution groups that can provide the necessary expertise in
commercialization of the Company’s entire product line to ensure maximum market
penetration
• Signing of Definitive
Sales and Agency Agreements, pertaining to the distribution rights, that have
purchase/sale order requirements expected to generate substantial sales in the
next five years
• Requirement for cash deposit
with sales orders to minimize drain on working capital

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
(a) Basis
of presentation
These
consolidated financial statements are presented in U.S. dollars and have
been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("US GAAP") and the
rules of the Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC").
(b)
Principles of consolidation
The
Company's consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Megola and
its wholly owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
(c) Use
of estimates
The
preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP
requires 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 the financial statements, and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from these estimates. Significant estimates are comprised of
depreciation, accrued expenses, impairment of intangible asset, and
recoverability of deferred tax asset. These consolidated financial statements
have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable
limits of materiality and within the framework of the accounting policies
summarized in these consolidated financial statements.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

(d)
Foreign currency translation
Megola
determined that its functional currency is the Canadian Dollar as substantially
all of its operations are in Canada. Megola’s reporting currency is U.S.
dollars. Transactions and balances originally denominated in U.S. dollars are
presented at their original amounts. Transactions and balances in other
currencies are converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with SFAS No. 52,
Foreign Currency Translation, and are included in determining net income or
loss. For foreign operations with the local currency as the functional currency,
assets and liabilities are translated from the local currencies into U.S.
dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Revenues and
expenses are translated at weighted average exchange rates for the period to
approximate translation at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates those
elements are recognized in the consolidated financial statements. Translation
adjustments resulting from the process of translating the local currency
consolidated financial statements into U.S. dollars are included in determining
comprehensive loss. As of July 31, 2010, the exchange rate for the Canadian
Dollar was $1.00 U.S. for $.9725 Canadian (2009 - $1.00 U.S. for $.9281). The
annual average exchange rate for the 2010 fiscal year was $1.00 U.S. for $.9532
(2009 - $1.00 U.S. for $.8508). The Canadian economy strengthened considerably
in relation to the U.S. during the fiscal year of 2010, and as a result currency
fluctuations have affected Megola's operations. In the future, inflation rates
and the devaluation or valuation of the Canadian Dollar in relation to the U.S.
dollar may have significant effects on Megola's consolidated financial
statements. As of the year ended July 31, 2010 the company
incurred an aggregated foreign currency translation loss of $26,443
(e) Cash
equivalents
For the
purposes of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers
all highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of 90
days or less to be cash equivalents.
(f)
Revenue recognition
Revenue
is recognized when it is realized or realizable and earned. Megola considers
revenue realized or realizable and earned when persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, services have been provided, and collectability is
reasonably assured. In the case of exclusive agreements with distributors,
finished goods are shipped directly FOB manufacturer/point of assembly. Megola
offers no independent warranty and refers any warranty claims to the
manufacturer for products it sells. Therefore, Megola recognizes revenue under
these agreements when the goods are shipped. Megola recognizes royalty revenue
as the Company is informed that such payments are due.
(g)
Shipping and Handling
Megola
provides all customers the option of having product delivered or making their
own shipping arrangements. All shipping and handling costs are disclosed in the
pricing estimate. Megola contacts its primary shipping facility for shipping
costs at the time orders are received and provides to customer in the pricing
estimate.
(h)
Intangible assets
Intangible
assets include distribution rights acquired from an independent party.
Intangible assets with an indefinite life are not amortized.
Indefinite-lived intangible assets are tested for impairment annually and will
be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or
circumstances change that would indicate that the carrying amount may be
impaired. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows used in determining the
fair value of the asset. At year end the management has performed an impairment
analysis and determined that an impairment allowance is not required. The amount
of the impairment loss to be recorded is calculated by the excess of the
asset’s carrying value over its fair value. Fair value is generally determined
using a discounted cash flow analysis.
It is the
opinion of the management that the Intangible Asset – Distribution Rights
acquired at May 2007 through the issuance of 30,000,000 common shares is fully
impaired and that the fair market value of the asset should be written off due
to the low level of sales attributed to the asset. Our sales forecast for year
ended July 31, 2010 based on contractually binding agreements entered into was
$5.2 million while actual sales were $ 336,822. The considerable
underperformance by our distribution groups relative to their committed
obligations under Agency Agreements and the subsequent expiration of these
agreements leaves the fair market value of the Intangible Asset in question and
as a result viewed as fully impaired.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
|
(i)
Financial Instruments
The
carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments
including cash and cash equivalents, inventory, account payable, accrued
expenses, notes payables, and other accrued liabilities approximate fair value
because of their short maturities. The Company measures and reports fair value
in accordance with ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure” defines
fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair
value investments.
Fair
value, as defined in ASC 820, is the price that would be received to sell an
asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market
participants at the measurement date. The fair value of an asset should reflect
its highest and best use by market participants, principal (or most
advantageous) markets, and an in-use or an in-exchange valuation premise. The
fair value of a liability should reflect the risk of nonperformance, which
includes, among other things, the Company’s credit risk.
Valuation
techniques are generally classified into three categories: the market approach;
the income approach; and the cost approach. The selection and application of one
or more of the techniques may require significant judgment and are primarily
dependent upon the characteristics of the asset or liability, and the quality
and availability of inputs. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value
under ASC 820 must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
unobservable inputs. ASC 820 also provides fair value hierarchy for inputs and
resulting measurement as follows:
Level
1
Quoted
prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement
date for identical assets or liabilities;
Level
2
Quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for
identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active;
inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;
and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable
market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities;
and
Level
3
Unobservable
inputs for the asset or liability that are supported by little or no market
activity and that are significant to the fair values.
Fair
value measurements are required to be disclosed by the Level within the fair
value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements in their entirety fall.
Fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (in Level 3
measurements) are subject to expanded disclosure requirements including a
reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, separately presenting
changes during the period attributable to the following: (i) total gains or
losses for the period (realized and unrealized), segregating those gains or
losses included in earnings, and a description of where those gains or losses
included in earning are reported in the statement of income.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

|
Foreign
Currency Risk
The
company is exposed to currency risks due to potential variation of the
currencies in which it operates.
Principal
currencies include the United States dollar and Canadian Dollar. The company
monitors the foreign currency exposure regularly to minimize the foreign
currency risk exposure.
Liquidity
Risk
The
company is exposed to liquidity risk as its continued operations are dependant
upon obtaining additional capital to satisfy its liabilities as they come
due.
(j)
Allowance for doubtful accounts
Megola
does not require collateral from its customers with respect to accounts
receivable but performs periodic credit evaluations of such customers’ financial
conditions. Megola determines any required allowance by considering a number of
factors including lengths of time accounts receivable are past due and Megola’s
previous loss history. Megola provides reserves for accounts receivable when
they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such
receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Megola requires
payment in full for most orders, which minimizes collection requirements.
Certain customers are able to provide us with a deposit of 50% up front with the
balance due on shipping. Our standard procedures related to any delayed payments
are to follow up within 10 days with a friendly reminder phone call and a letter
in 30 days. After 60 days, we will have a letter drafted by our lawyer go out
demanding payment in full along with any outstanding interest charges. Failure
to make payment in the next 15 days will result in the account being forwarded
to a collection agency for recovery. Receivables will be classified as doubtful
after 120 days and written off as Bad Debt. Interest charges will start to
accumulate on the 30th day
following the Invoice for any unpaid balances at a rate of 18% per annum
calculated daily.
As of
July 31, 2010 and 2009, Megola had $120,022 and $nil respectively as an
allowance for doubtful accounts.
(k)
Inventory
Inventory
is valued at the lower of cost (determined on a first -in, first-out method) and
net realizable value. Megola records provisions to write down
its inventory for estimated obsolescence or unmarketable inventory equal to the
difference between cost of the inventory and its estimated net realizable value
based on assumptions about future market demand and market conditions. If future
demand or market conditions are less favorable than currently expected,
additional inventory provisions may be required. During the fiscal years ended
July 31, 2010 and 2009 impairment expense was $nil and $nil, respectively
related to inventory impairments. In the year ending July 31, 2007, included in
the impairment reserve is $245,032 for slow moving products. These products
are in good condition and are still expected to be sold.
(l)
Property and equipment
Property
and equipment are stated on the basis of historical cost less
accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line
method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from 3 to
7 years. Depreciation expense for the years ended July 31, 2010 and 2009 was
$5,427 and $4,465, respectively. Depreciation of property and equipment acquired
and disposed of during the year is recorded at one half of the indicated
rates.
(m)
Impairment of long-lived assets
Long-lived
assets other than intangible assets require the recognition of an impairment
loss whenever it is indicated that an asset may be impaired and the future
cash flows from that asset are less than the asset’s carrying
value.
(n)
Comprehensive income (loss)
The
Company has adopted ASC 220 Reporting Comprehensive Income. This
standard requires companies to disclose comprehensive income (loss) in
their consolidated financial statements. In addition to items included in
net income, comprehensive income (loss) includes items currently charged or
credited directly to stockholders’ deficiency, such as foreign
currency translation adjustments.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

|
(o)
Concentration of credit risk
"Disclosure
of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk and
Financial Instruments with Concentration of Credit Risk",
requires disclosure of any significant off-balance sheet risk and credit
risk concentration. The Company does not have significant off-balance sheet
risk or credit concentration.
(p)
Income taxes
Megola
accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes.".
Under Statement 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Under Statement 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period
that includes the enactment date. There was no current or deferred income
tax expense or benefits for the period ending July 31, 2010 and
2009.
(q) Net
earnings (loss) per common share
Basic
loss per share is calculated by dividing the loss for the year by the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss
per share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method,
the diluted weighted average number of shares is calculated assuming the
proceeds that arise from the exercise of stock options and other dilutive
instruments are used to repurchase the Company’s shares at their weighted
average market price for the period.
(r)
Share-based compensation
The
Company has adopted the requirements of ASC Topic 718, "Share-Based Payments".
This pronouncement require that the fair value method of accounting be
applied to all share-based compensation payments to both employees and
non-employees respectively.
The fair
value method of accounting is used to account for share based payments granted
to directors, officers, employees and others whereby the fair value of
share based payments granted is recorded as an expense in the consolidated
financial statements. The expense is based on the estimated fair value at
the time of the grant and recognized over any vesting period.
The fair
value of share based payments granted to employees and non-employees is
determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

Recent accounting pronouncements
Accounting Standards Codification

Principles
In May
2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update No. 2010-19 “Foreign Currency”.
(“ASU No. 2010-19”). ASU 2010-19, codifies the SEC staff announcement made at
the March 18, 2010, EITF meeting. The ASU “provides the SEC staff’s views on
certain foreign currency issues related to investments in Venezuela.” These
issues relate to Venezuela’s highly inflationary status. The ASU became
effective on March 18, 2010. The adoption of this guidance has not had and is
not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
|
In April 2010, the FASB issued
Accounting Standard Update No. 2010-18. “Receivables” (Topic 310). ASU
No.2010-18 provides guidance on accounting for acquired loans that have evidence
of credit deterioration upon acquisition. Paragraph 310-30-15-6 allows acquired
assets with common risk characteristics to be accounted for in the aggregated as
a pool. Upon establishment of the pool, the pool becomes the unit of accounting.
When loans are accounted for as a pool, the purchase discount is not allocated
to individual loans; thus all of the loans in the pool accrete at a single pool
rate (based on cash flow projections for the pool). Under subtopic 310-30, the
impairment analysis also is performed on the pool as a whole as opposed to each
individual loan. Paragraphs 310-40-15-4 through 15-12 establish the criteria for
evaluating whether a loan modification should be classified as a troubled debt
restructuring. Specifically paragraph 310-40-15-5 states that “a restructuring
of a debt constitutes a troubled debt restructuring for purposes of this
subtopic if the creditor for economic or legal reasons related to the debtor’s
financial difficulties grants a concession to the debtor that it would not
otherwise consider.” The ASU is effective for modification of loans accounted
for within pools under subtopic 310-30 occurring in the first interim or annual
period ending on or after July 15, 2010. The amendments are to be applied
prospectively. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance has
not had and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued
Accounting Standard Update No. 2010-17. “Revenue Recognition-Milestone Method”
(Topic 605) ASU No.2010-17 provides guidance on defining a milestone and
determining when it may be appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue
recognition for research or development transactions. An entity often recognizes
these milestone payments as revenue in their entirety upon achieving a specific
result from the research or development efforts. A vendor can recognize
consideration that is contingent upon achievement of a milestone in its entirety
as revenue in the period in which the milestone is achieved only if the
milestone meets all criteria to be considered substantive. Determining whether a
milestone is substantive is a matter of judgment made at the inception of the
arrangement. The ASU is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within
those fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early application is
permitted. Entities can apply this guidance prospectively to milestones achieved
after adoption. However, retrospective application to all prior periods is also
permitted. The adoption of this guidance has not had and is not expected to have
a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued
Accounting Standard Update No. 2010-13 “Stock Compensation” (Topic 718). ASU
No.2010-13 provides amendments to Topic 718 to clarify that an employee
share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of
a market in which a substantial portion of the entity's equity securities trades
should not be considered to contain a condition that is not a market,
performance, or service condition. Therefore, an entity would not classify such
an award as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. The amendments in
this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those
fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2010. The amendments in this
Update should be applied by recording a cumulative-effect adjustment to the
opening balance of retained earnings. The cumulative-effect adjustment should be
calculated for all awards outstanding as of the beginning of the fiscal year in
which the amendments are initially applied, as if the amendments had been
applied consistently since the inception of the award. The cumulative-effect
adjustment should be presented separately. Earlier application is permitted. The
adoption of this guidance has not had and is not expected to have a material
impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In April 2010, the FASB issued
Accounting Standard Update No. 2010-12. “Income Taxes” (Topic 740). ASU
No.2010-12 amends FASB Accounting Standard Codification subtopic 740-10 Income
Taxes to include paragraph 740-10-S99-4. On March 30, 2010 The President signed
the Health Care & Education Affordable Care Act reconciliation bill that
amends its previous Act signed on March 23, 2010. FASB Codification topic 740,
Income Taxes, requires the measurement of current and deferred tax liabilities
and assets to be based on provisions of enacted tax law. The effects of future
changes in tax laws are not anticipated.” Therefore, the different enactment
dates of the Act and reconciliation measure may affect registrants with a
period-end that falls between March 23, 2010 (enactment date of the Act), and
March 30, 2010 (enactment date of the reconciliation measure). However, the
announcement states that the SEC would not object if such registrants were to
account for the enactment of both the Act and the reconciliation measure in a
period ending on or after March 23, 2010, but notes that the SEC staff “does not
believe that it would be appropriate for registrants to analogize to this view
in any other fact patterns.” The adoption of this guidance has not had and is
not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

DISTRIBUTION
RIGHTS
In
January 2007, the Company acquired exclusive rights to establish a distribution
network for the Hartindo line of fire safety products (“Hartindo”) from
Pacific Channel Ltd. (“PCL”), an unrelated party. These rights were acquired for
$1,350,000 were paid by the issuance of 30,000,000 common shares of the
Company and are considered to have an indefinite life.
Per terms
of the distribution agreement, for each contract the company enters into, the
following applies:
50% of
all up-front fees received by the Company and 50% of all other forms of
consideration received by the Company as a one-time payment for the grant of the
distribution license shall be paid to PCL and 50% shall be retained by
Megola
All
payments are to be made quarterly within 30 days of the end each calendar
quarter.
This
agreement, as amended subsequent to year-end, shall remain in full force and
effect so long as the Company and its Hartindo dealers, sub-agents and/or sales
representatives (the “Megola Group”) purchase Hartindo products in the aggregate
amounts specified below, namely:
|
(a)
|
If
in the period up to January 2010, the Megola Group purchases, in the
aggregate, a minimum of US $200,000 Hartindo Products, the distribution
agreement shall be extended until January 31, 2011;
and
|
|
(b)
|
If
in the period up to January 31, 2011, the Megola Group purchases, in the
aggregate, a minimum of US $300,000 Hartindo products, the distribution
agreement shall be extended until January 31, 2012;
and
|
|
(c)
|
If
in the period up to January 31, 2012, the Megola Group purchases, in the
aggregate, a minimum of US $400,000 Hartindo products, the distribution
agreement shall be extended until January 31, 2013;
and
|
|
(d)
|
If
in the period up to January 31, 2013, the Megola Group purchases, in the
aggregate, a minimum of US $500,000 Hartindo products, the distribution
agreement shall be extended until January 31, 2014;
and
|
|
(e)
|
If
in the period up to January 31, 2014, the Megola Group purchases, in the
aggregate, a minimum of US $750,000 Hartindo products, the distribution
agreement shall be extended for 25 years from January 31, 2014, or for
such longer period as the Company retains the Hartindo product marketing
rights for Canada, without any further performance conditions to be
met.
|
The
Company shall deliver to PCL on or before the end of February in each and every
year, a statement showing the aggregate Hartindo purchases made by the Megola
Group in the 12 month period ended January 31 in the prior year.
Failure
to meet any of the above conditions shall give PCL the right to terminate the
distribution agreement by a written notice to the company with the agreement
remaining in force until all payments owing by one party to another have been
made. In December 2008, the sales/performance quotas in the agreement
with PCL have been moved forward starting January 31, 2010.
It is the
opinion of the management that the Intangible Asset – Distribution Rights
acquired at May 2007 through the issuance of 30,000,000 common shares is fully
impaired and that the fair market value of the asset should be written off due
to the low level of sales attributed to the asset. Our sales forecast for year
ended July 31, 2010 based on contractually binding agreements entered into was
$5.2 million while actual sales were $ 336,822. The considerable
underperformance by our distribution groups relative to their committed
obligations under Agency Agreements and the subsequent expiry of these
agreements leaves the fair market value of the Intangible Asset in question and
as a result viewed as fully impaired.

On August
5, 2009, Megola issued 3,200,000 shares of its common stock, for consulting
services, under an agreement valued at $64,000. These shares were
affected by the 1:50 reverse split that took place on November 25, 2009 and were
converted into 64,000 shares.
On
September 28, 2009, Megola’s common stock decreased by 41,500 shares, due to a
tender offer to the company’s Series A Convertible Preferred
stock. These shares were submitted for tender prior to the deadline
of June 15, 2009; however, an error was made in the transmittal of the request
and subsequently was not processed until this time. These shares were affected
by the 1:50 reverse split that took place on November 25, 2009 and were
converted into 830 shares.
On
November 25, 2009 Megola approved a corporate action of a reverse 1:50 stock
split. The Management and Board of Directors of Megola Inc. have
reviewed the recent activity and events of the company and feel that the
company's common stock is vastly undervalued. Megola has therefore initiated a
comprehensive plan to increase the share value of the common stock.
On
January 21, 2010, Megola’s common stock decreased by 1,143,500 shares, due to a
tender offer to the company’s Series A Convertible Preferred
stock. These shares were submitted late due to a late conversion
instruction provided to the transfer agent. These shares were
affected by the 1:50 reverse split that took place on November 25, 2009 and were
converted into 22,838 shares.
On May
29, 2010, all Preferred series A stock were eligible for conversion back to
common stock. During the period of May 29, 2010 to July 31, 2010, 867 shares of
Preferred series A stock were converted into 21,678 shares of common stock. One
share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock was received for each 25 shares of
common tendered.
During
the period of May 1, 2010 to July 31, 2010, all Preferred series B stock were
eligible for conversion back to common stock. 111,885 shares of
Preferred series B stock were converted into 11,188,500 shares of common
stock.
The
shareholder of each common share is entitled to one vote. Megola’s
common stock currently has no additional rights or
privileges.
b)
Preferred “A”
On April
24, 2009, the company offered all common shareholders of record the opportunity
to tender their shares in exchange
for the company’s Series A Convertible Preferred stock. As of the offer
expiration date, June 15, 2009, 47,798,610
common shares had been tendered. One share of Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock was received for each 25
shares of common tendered. There is a mandatory holding period for the
Series A Convertible that expires May 29,
2010, before shareholders can then convert back to common shares. The
stated value of the Series A Convertible
is $5. per share or $.20 per common share. On May 29, 2010 Preferred A
shareholders may convert their
shares back to common at $.20 per common share or market, whichever is less. Each
Preferred Series A still represents
25 shares of common. The holders of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock
have 100 votes for each full share
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.
Each
Series A Preferred also has a warrant attached which allows the owner to
purchase 10 common shares at $.45 per
share. The warrant applies only to shareholders that have not yet
converted their Preferred A shares back to common on
the date they exercise their warrants. These warrants expire on May 29,
2011.
On
September 28, 2009, the company’s Series A Convertible Preferred stock increased
by 1,660 shares and common stock
decreased by 41,500 shares, due to a tender offer for the company’s Series A
Convertible Preferred stock. These
shares were submitted for tender prior to the deadline of June 15, 2009;

Convertible Preferred Stock into common stock. For purposes of conversion,

CONTINGENCIES
|
On March
30, 2010, the Company entered in a Master Distributor agreement with CY Holding
Company. Through this agreement the Company acquired exclusive rights to sell
the equipment of CY Holding Company in North America. This agreement
is contingent on the minimum annual sales of 10,000 – 20,000 units during any
calendar twelve month period. As of July 31, 2010, the Company had not sold any
units related to CY Holding’s equipment.
12.
|
ROYALTY
INCOME
|
One of
the Company's manufacturers also sells certain Megola products directly
throughout Asia. By agreement, Megola is entitled to a royalty payment for each
of these units. Megola recognizes royalty revenue upon fulfillment of its
contractual obligations and upon sale by the manufacturer of royalty-bearing
products. There was no royalty income received during the fiscal year due to the
manufacturer moving its facilities to a new location in Southeast Asia, thereby
not producing or selling any additional units.
On
January 19, 2009 the Company entered into a Distributorship, Sales Agency and
Royalty Agreement with Vulcan Technologies LLC. Vulcan is granted
exclusive distribution and sales rights for the Hartindo line of anti-fire
products in Canada and Mexico as well as co-exclusive rights similarly in the
United States for the Railroad Industry for a ten year term. Megola
receives payments as follows. A payment of $400,000 within five days of
the execution of the Agreement (funds have been received) and an additional
$350,000 due 90 days following the date of this Agreement
provided that, under various existing contracts, Megola has purchased no less
than 100,000 gallons of Hartindo AF21 in its fully diluted form.
Vulcan
will also pay a commission payment of 25% of Vulcan’s profits on products sold
by any party in the Railroad Industry. They also commit to generating no
less than $3 million on or before the second anniversary of the Agreement.
They also commit to a 15% increase in gross sales for each year
thereafter.
13.
|
RESEARCH
AND DEVELOPMENT
|
In 2009,
Megola had $12,527 in research and development related expenditures. Much work
had been completed in furthering the potential marketability of the Hartindo
product line. In 2010, expenses were significantly reduced
to $7,369
due to such initiatives being directly undertaken by our distribution
groups.
14.
|
CONCENTRATIONS
|
During
2010, three customers accounted for 96% of sales respectively (2009 – one
customer accounted for 70%) and two vendors accounted for 97% of purchases (2009
- 99%).
During
2010, 36% of the recognized sales were related to the Hartindo product line, and
27% were related to technical and administrative revenue. As of July 31, 2010,
the Company only had one main supplier of the Hartindo raw materials needs for
the Hartindo product line.

INCOME
TAXES
|
Deferred
income taxes arise from timing differences resulting from income and expense
items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different periods. A
deferred tax asset valuation allowance is recorded when it is more likely than
not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. A valuation allowance of 100%
of the deferred tax assets was made; there are no deferred taxes as of July 31,
2010. There was no income tax expense for the years ended July 31, 2010 and 2009
due to the Company’s net losses.
The
Company’s tax benefit differs from the “expected” tax benefit for the years
ended July 31, 2010 and 2009, which is computed by applying the Federal
Corporate tax rate of 35% to loss before taxes), as follows:

EARNING
PER SHARE
|
Basic
earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to common
shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that
could occur if stock options and other commitments to issue common stock were
exercised or equity awards vest resulting in the issuance of common stock or
conversion of notes into shares of the Company’s common stock that could
increase the number of shares outstanding and lower the earnings per share of
the Company’s common stock. This calculation is not done for periods
in a loss position as this would be antidilutive. As of July 31,
2010, there were no stock options or stock awards that would have been included
in the computation of diluted earnings per share that could potentially dilute
basic earnings per share in the future. The information related to
basic and diluted earnings per share is as follows:

LONG
TERM RECEIVABLE
|
The
accounts receivable balance represents an amount owing by a supplier and will be
offset against the Company’s future purchases of inventory. Since the amount
will not be collected in the next 12 months, the balance has been classified as
long-term accounts receivable. The fair value of the long-term receivable has
been estimated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated rate of 6%.
The fair value of long-term receivable is $121,466.
On April
9, 2010, the Board of Directors of Pacific Channel Limited and majority of
shareholders have passed resolution to dissolve the company effectively
immediately, therefore the outstanding receivable is deemed uncollectible and a
corresponding adjusting entry to bad debt expense has been entered.

Item
9A(T). Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
We
carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of
our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) at July 31, 2010. This evaluation was carried out under
the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer
and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, at July 31, 2010, our disclosure
controls and procedures are effective.
Disclosure
controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or
submitted under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and
reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and
procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our
reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer,
to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
The
Company has established disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that
information disclosed in this annual report on Form 10-K was properly recorded,
processed, summarized and reported to the Company’s Board of Directors. A
control system, no matter how well conceived or operated, can provide only
reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system
are met.
Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting
Under the
supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the
effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the
framework stated by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway
Commission.
The
Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer has evaluated
the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of July 31,
2010 and for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2010 covered by this Annual
Report on Form 10-K. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of July 31, 2010 and for the
fiscal year ending July 31, 2010, the Company’s disclosure controls and
procedures were not effective as required under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Exchange Act. This conclusion by the Company’s Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer does not relate to reporting
periods after July 31, 2010.
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company s registered
public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting.
Management s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public
accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide
only management’s report in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Changes in Internal Control
Over Financial Reporting
No change in the Company s internal
control over financial reporting occurred during the year ended July 31, 2010,
that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Code
of Ethics
We do not

Section
16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires our directors
and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a
registered class of our equity securities, to file reports of beneficial
ownership and changes in beneficial ownership of our securities with the SEC on
Forms 3 (Initial Statement of Beneficial Ownership), 4 (Statement of Changes of
Beneficial Ownership of Securities) and 5 (Annual Statement of Beneficial
Ownership of Securities). Directors, executive officers and beneficial owners of
more than 10% of our Common Stock are required by SEC regulations to furnish us
with copies of all Section 16(a) forms that they file. Based solely on review of
the copies of such forms furnished to us, or written representations that no
reports were required, we believe that for the fiscal year ended July 31, 2010

them.

12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management
and Related Stockholder Matters.
As of the
date of this Annual Report, the following table sets forth certain information
with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock by each stockholder
known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our common stock and
by each of our current directors and executive officers. Each person has sole
voting and investment power with respect to the shares of common stock, except
as otherwise indicated. Beneficial ownership consists of a direct interest in
the shares of common stock, except as otherwise indicated. As of the date of
this Annual Report, there are 33,570,455 shares of common stock issued and
outstanding.
The
following tables set forth the ownership, as of the date of this prospectus, of
our common stock by each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more
than 5% of our outstanding common stock, our directors, and our executive
officers and directors as a group. To the best of our knowledge, the persons
named have sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares, except
as otherwise noted. There are not any pending or anticipated arrangements that
may cause a change in control.
The
information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of our voting
securities has been presented in accordance with the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other
purpose. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a
security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of
the security or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security.
A person is deemed to own beneficially any security as to which such person has
the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power within 60 days
through the conversion or exercise of any convertible security, warrant, option
or other right. More than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of
the same securities. The percentage of beneficial ownership by any person as of
a particular date is calculated by dividing the number of shares beneficially
owned by such person, which includes the number of shares as to which such
person has the right to acquire voting or investment power within 60 days, by
the sum of the number of shares outstanding as of such date plus the number of
shares as to which such person has the right to acquire voting or investment
power within 60 days. Consequently, the denominator used for calculating such
percentage may be different for each beneficial owner. Except as otherwise
indicated below and under applicable community property laws, we believe that
the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below have sole voting and
investment power with respect to the shares shown. The business address of the
shareholders is 704 Mara Street, Suite 111, Point Edward, ON N7V
1X4.

Director
Independence
We are
not subject to the listing requirements of any national securities exchange or
national securities association and, as a result, we are not at this time

Currently, we have only one director and we believe that such directors
currently does not meet the definition of "independent" as promulgated by the
rules and regulations of Nasdaq.
