We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Regional Tire Distributors (Edmonton) Inc., which comprise the balance sheets as of February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012, and the related statements of operations, retained earnings and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Regional Tire Distributors (Edmonton) Inc. as of February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises.

Basis of Accounting

As more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s policy is to prepare its financial statements on the basis of Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises which differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in note 11 to the financial statements.

REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (EDMONTON) INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012

1. Nature of operations

The Company was incorporated under the Alberta Business Corporations Act on December 3, 2004 and operates a wholesale tire distribution business, which fully commenced operations in the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009 as North Alta Tire Limited and subsequently changed its name to Regional Tire Distributors (Edmonton) Inc.

2. Summary of significant accounting policies

Basis of presentation

These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises.

Revenue recognition

Revenue is recognized when the goods have been delivered, the services have been completed, the transaction has been accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured. The Company reports its revenue net of returns, sales discounts and volume rebates to customers.

Interest revenue is recognized on an annual basis as it is earned.

Vendor rebates and allowances

The Company participates in various purchase rebate programs with its major tire vendors including early payment incentives and volume purchase rebates based on defined levels of purchase volume. These arrangements enable the Company to earn rebates that reduce the cost of merchandise purchased. Vendor rebates and allowances are accrued as earned. Vendor rebates and allowances earned are initially recorded as a reduction in the cost of merchandise inventories and are included in operations (as a reduction of cost of goods sold) in the period the related product is sold. Accordingly, the amount of vendor rebates included in operations in any year could include rebates earned in a prior year.

Allowance for doubtful accounts

The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects management’s best estimate of losses on the accounts receivable balances. The company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts that is estimated based on a variety of factors including accounts receivable aging, historical experience and other currently available information, including events such as customer bankruptcy and current economic conditions. Interest is charged on overdue account receivable balances. A provision is recorded in the period in which the receivable is deemed uncollectible.

Inventories

Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition including volume rebates and allowances from vendors. The cost of inventories is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less costs necessary to complete the sale. Inventory is reduced for the estimated losses due to obsolescence. This reduction is determined for groups of products based on purchases in the recent past and/or expected future demand.

REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (EDMONTON) INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012

 

Equipment

Equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.

Amortization is calculated at the following annual rates:

 

Office equipment

   -  20% declining balance basis

Computer equipment

   -  30% declining balance basis

Shop equipment

   -  20% declining balance basis

Equipment is tested for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposal. In such a case, an impaired loss must be recognized and is equivalent to the excess of the carrying amount of a long-lived asset over its fair value.

Investments

The company accounts for its investments using the cost method. The carrying value of each investment is reviewed annually and written down below cost if there is a loss of value.

Income taxes

The Company uses the future income taxes method to account for income taxes. Under this method, future 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 bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Future income tax assets are recognized only to the extent it is more likely than not that the asset will be realized.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The more subjective estimates included in these financial statements are the determination of allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, valuation of inventory and the recognition of vendor rebates and allowance. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial Instruments

Measurement of financial instruments

The company initially measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, except for certain non-arm’s length transactions.

The Company subsequently measures all its financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost, except for equity instruments that are quoted in an active market, which are measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognized in net income.

REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (EDMONTON) INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012

 

Financial assets measured at amortized cost include cash, accounts receivable, dividend receivable and loans receivable from related parties.

Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, management remuneration payable, loans payable to related parties and shareholders’ loan.

Impairment

Financial assets measured at cost are tested for impairment when there are indicators of impairment. The amount of the write-down is recognized in net income. The previously recognized impairment loss may be reversed to the extent of the improvement, directly or by adjusting the allowance account, provided it is no greater than the amount that would have been reported at the date of the reversal had the impairment not been recognized previously. The amount of the reversal is recognized in net income.

Transaction costs

Transaction costs relating to financial instruments that are measured subsequently at fair value are recognized in operations in the year in which they are incurred. For instruments that are subsequently measured at amortized cost, the amount initially recognized is adjusted for transaction costs directly attributable to the origination, acquisition, issuance or assumption.

10. Financial Instruments

Credit Risk

The Company is susceptible to credit risk on its accounts receivable and mitigates this risk through an extensive credit evaluation process.

Liquidity Risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is exposed to this risk mainly in respect to its accounts payable and accrued liabilities and its management remunerations payable. At February 28, 2014 the company had a working capital balance of $2,950,726 (February 28, 2013—$3,448,205; February 29, 2012—$2,333,056).

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk refers to adverse consequences of interest rate changes on the Company’s cash flows and financial position. Management does not believe the Company is exposed to significant interest rate risk.

11. Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises and US GAAP Reconciliation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises (“ASPE”). The material differences between the accounting policies used by the Company under ASPE and US GAAP are disclosed below.

a) Income Taxes

The difference between a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefit recognized and measured pursuant to this guidance represents an unrecognized tax benefit. An unrecognized tax benefit is disclosed as a long-term liability unless the Corporation anticipates a payment or receipt within one year in respect of the position. As a result of implementing these provisions there was no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Under US GAAP the Company is required to calculate and record corporate income taxes based on enacted corporate income tax rates. Under the Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises, the Company had calculated and recognized corporate income taxes using substantively enacted corporate income tax rates. For the company, enacted and substantively enacted corporate tax rates are the same; as a result no differences to calculated and recognized corporate income taxes arise. There are no material differences between the Company’s statutory income tax rate and the effective tax rate.

b) Variable interest entities

The Company has performed a review of the entities with which it conducts business and has concluded that there are no entities that are required to be consolidated or variable interest that are required to be disclosed under the requirements of ASC Topic 810, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.

c) Wholly owned subsidiaries and investments subject to significant influence

US GAAP requires the consolidation of subsidiaries, whereas under ASPE the Company elected to record the investment in subsidiaries on the cost method. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries include Tirecraft Western Canada Ltd., 1773503 Alberta Ltd., and Tire Storage Direct (Edmonton) Ltd.

REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (EDMONTON) INC.

Notes to the Financial Statements

February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012

 

The Company also has significantly influence investments in Regional Tire Distributors (Calgary) Inc., Regional Tire Distributors Manitoba (6631208 Manitoba Ltd.), Integra Tire and Auto Centres Canada, and Regional Tire Distributors (Saskatchewan) Inc. Under US GAAP, significantly influenced investments are required to be accounted for using the equity method, whereby the investment is initially recorded at cost, and adjusted to recognize the Company’s share of after tax earnings or losses, and reduced by dividends received, however under ASPE the Company elected to record the significantly influenced investments on the cost method. The accompanying financial information includes consolidated financial statements which reflect the equity method of accounting for these investments and condensed financial statements for each investee company.

The following financial information presents the financial statement as at February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012 on a consolidated basis.

d) Comprehensive Income

US GAAP requires the presentation of a Statement of Comprehensive Income. The Company has no items that would cause such presentation to differ from the amounts presented as Net Income in the accompanying financials statements.
