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, 2009 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, 2009 we had an accumulated deficit of $5,873,775. We had a net loss of
$258,175 in fiscal year 2009. 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, 2009 our revenues increased from $36,399 for 2008 to
$116,968 for the year ended July 31, 2009.
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.

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

presentation at July 31, 2009.
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, 2009, we had 109 holders of record of our common stock.
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, 2009 with the year ended July 31, 2008.
During
the year ending July 31, 2009 our revenues increased from $36,399 for 2008 to
$116,968 for the year ended July 31, 2009, an increase of 221.34% over the prior
year. Our revenues for the year ended July 31, 2009 vs. year ended July 31, 2008
increased due to a royalty payment based on a North American Distribution
Agreement.
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 decreased to $23,216 and, as a percentage of revenues,
decreased to 19.84% in the year ended July 31, 2009, as compared to $32,592 and
89.54% of revenue for the year ended July 31, 2008. The overall decrease in the
cost of sales during 2009 is due to decrease costs of raw material acquisition
and product manufacturing. 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,
2009, $400,000 (2008-$nil) 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 39.33% to $723,502 during 2009
from $519,259 in 2008. The overall increase in general and administrative
(operating) expenses is due to stock warrants and consulting fees that aided in
our product expansion and sales.
Interest
expense increased 27.91% in 2009 to $23,960 from $18,732 in 2008, because of the
Company's increased interest on stockholder loans during the year. As
of Q3, all stockholder interest owing, along with all outstanding stockholder
debt was converted into Preferred “B” stock. (see note 8)
Accumulated
other comprehensive loss increased 19,537.26% in 2009 to $92.327 from $475,
which is directly attributable to the foreign currency translation
adjustment.
Net
Income (Loss)
For the
reasons outlined above, we realized a net loss of $258,175 for the year ended
July 31, 2009 as compared to a net loss of $536,875 for the year ended July 31,
2008, a decrease of 51.91%.

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, 2009
have been prepared assuming we continue as a going concern.
At July
31, 2009, we had an accumulated deficit of $5,873,775.
Cash and
cash equivalents at July 31, 2009 were $nil and $nil at July 31, 2008. Our
inventory increased for the same period from $51,429 to $241,023 or
368.65%;
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.
One
customer accounted for 70% of sales in 2009. One customer accounted for 61% of
sales in 2008. One vendor accounted for 99% of cost of goods sold in 2009. One
vendor accounted for 100% of cost of goods sold in 2008.
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
Shareholders and Board of Directors of Megola, Inc.
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Megola, Inc. (the
“Company”) as of July 31, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of
operations, changes in consolidated Shareholders’ equity and cash flows for the
year ended July 31, 2009. These consolidated financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these consolidated 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. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provided a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Megola, Inc. as of
July 31, 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
years ended July 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.
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.

REPORT OF
INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the
Shareholders of Megola, Inc.
We have
audited the consolidated balance sheets of Megola, Inc. (the “Company”) as at
July 31, 2008 and 2007 and the related consolidated statements of operations and
comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years
then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of
the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We
conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
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.
In our
opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of July 31,
2008 and 2007 and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years then ended in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in the United States of America.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements 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. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. The consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this
uncertainty.
Since the
accompanying consolidated financial statements have not been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and standards in
Canada, they may not satisfy the reporting requirements of Canadian statutes and
regulations.

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 $258,175 and
$536,875 in the 2009 and 2008 fiscal years respectively, has negative cash
flows from operations and a deficit of $5,873,775 as at July 31, 2009. 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
(continued)
|
(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, 2009, the exchange rate for the Canadian
Dollar was $1.00 U.S. for $1.08 Canadian (2008 - $1.00 U.S. for $1.02). The
annual average exchange rate for the 2009 fiscal year was $1.00 U.S. for $1.18
(2008 - $1.00 U.S. for $1.00). The Canadian economy weakened considerably in
relation to the U.S. during the fiscal year of 2009, 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. During the year-ended July 31, 2009 the company incurred an
aggregated foreign currency translation loss of $92,327.
(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.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
|
(i)
Financial Instruments
Fair
Value
The
Company’s financial instruments consist of long-term receivable, bank
overdraft, accrued expenses, accounts payable and accrued interest. The fair
value of bank overdraft, accrued expenses, accounts payable and accrued interest
approximates their carrying amount given short period to receipt or payment
of cash. The fair value of long-term receivable is disclosed in note 17. It is
management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant
interest rate or credit risks arising from these financial
instruments.
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, 2009 and 2008, Megola had $nil 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,
2009 and 2008 impairment expense was $nil and $nil, respectively related to
inventory impairments. In the year ending July 31, 2007, included in the
impairment expense 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, 2009 and 2008 was
$4,465 and $2,691, respectively. Depreciation of property and equipment acquired
and disposed of during the year is recorded at one half of the indicated
rates.

SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(continued)
|
(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 SFAS No. 130 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.
(o)
Concentration of credit risk
SFAS No.
105, "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 Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes.". Under Statement 109, 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 109, 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, 2009 and 2008.
(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 FASB Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payments", and
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, or SAB 107, "Share-Based Payments".
These pronouncements 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.

Recent accounting pronouncements
Accounting Standards Codification
and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles
In June
2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement “FASB” issued
Statement No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy
of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 168”). SFAS No.
168 will become the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), superseding existing FASB,
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”), Emerging Issues
Task Force (“EITF”), and related accounting literature. SFAS No. 168
reorganizes the thousands of GAAP pronouncements into roughly 90 accounting
topics and displays them using a consistent structure. Also included is
relevant Securities and Exchange Commission guidance organized using the same
topical structure in separate sections. SFAS No. 168 will be effective for
financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15,
2009. This statement will have an impact on the Company’s financial
statements since all future references to authoritative accounting literature
will be references in accordance with SFAS No. 168.
Subsequent
Events
In May
2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”. This Statement
establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosures of events that
occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or
are available to be issued. It requires the disclosure of the date through
which an entity has evaluated subsequent events and the basis for that date and
is effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009.
The adoption of SFAS No. 165 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s financial statements.
Determining
Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have
Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not
Orderly
In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume
and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased
and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly". This FSP provides additional
guidance for estimating fair value in accordance with FASB Statement No. 157,
Fair Value Measurements, when the volume and level of activity for the asset or
liability have significantly decreased. This FSP also includes guidance on
identifying circumstances that indicate a transaction is not orderly. FSP FAS
No. 157-4 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after
June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. The implementation of
FSP FAS No. 157-4 did not have a material on the Company’s financial position
and results of operations.
Recognition
and Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments
In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 115-2 and FAS No. 124-2, “Recognition and
Presentation of Other-Than-Temporary Impairments ". The objective of an
other-than-temporary impairment analysis under existing U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) is to determine whether the holder of an investment
in a debt or equity security for which changes in fair value are not regularly
recognized in earnings (such as securities classified as held-to-maturity or
available-for-sale) should recognize a loss in earnings when the investment is
impaired. An investment is impaired if the fair value of the investment is less
than its amortized cost basis. FSP FAS No. 115-2 and FAS No. 124-2 is effective
for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early
adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. Earlier adoption for
periods ending before March 15, 2009, is not permitted. The implementation
of FSP FAS No. 115-2 and FAS No. 124-2 did not have a material impact on the
Company’s financial position and results of operations.

Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In April
2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 107-1 and APB No. 28-1, “Interim Disclosures
about Fair Value of Financial Instruments". This FSP amends SFAS No. 107, Disclosures about Fair Value of
Financial Instruments, to require disclosures about fair value of
financial instruments for interim
reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements.
This FSP also amends APB Opinion No. 28, Interim Financial Reporting,
to require those disclosures in summarized financial information at
interim reporting periods. FSP FAS No. 107-1 is effective for interim reporting
periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods
ending after March 15, 2009. The implementation of FSP FAS No. 107-1 did
not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position and results of
operations
Interim
Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In April
2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position “FSP” No. SFAS 107-1 and APB 28-1,
“Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. This FSP
amends SFAS No. 107 to require disclosures about fair values of financial
instruments for interim reporting periods as well as in annual financial
statements. The FSP also amends Accounting Principles Board Opinions “APB
Opinion” No. 28 to require those disclosures in summarized financial information
at interim reporting periods. This FSP becomes effective for interim
reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for
periods ending after March 15, 2009. The adoption of this FSP is not
expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial
statements.
Amendments
to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20
In
January 2009, the FASB issued FSP Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No.
99-20-1, “Amendments to the Impairment Guidance of EITF Issue No. 99-20". This
FSP amends the impairment guidance in EITF Issue No. 99-20, “Recognition of
Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased Beneficial Interests and Beneficial
Interests That Continue to Be Held by a Transferor in Securitized Financial
Assets,” to achieve more consistent determination of whether an
other-than-temporary impairment has occurred. The FSP also retains and
emphasizes the objective of an otherthan- temporary impairment assessment and
the related disclosure requirements in FASB Statement No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities, and other related guidance. This Issue is
effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after December 15,
2008, and shall be applied prospectively. Retrospective application to a prior
interim or annual reporting period is not permitted. The adoption of FSP EITF
99-20-1 did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements
Accounting
for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance
or Other Financing
In June
2009, the FASB issued FSP Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 09-1,
“Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible
Debt Issuance or Other Financing”. This Issue is effective for fiscal years
beginning on or after December 15, 2009, and interim periods within those fiscal
years for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of those fiscal years.
Share lending arrangements that have been terminated as a result of counterparty
default prior to the effective date of this Issue but for which the entity has
not reached a final settlement as of the effective date are within the scope of
this Issue. This Issue requires retrospective application for all arrangements
outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December
15, 2009. This Issue is effective for arrangements entered into on or after the
beginning of the first reporting period that begins on or after June 15, 2009.
Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact
of FSP EITF 09-1 on its financial position and results of
operations.

Determining
the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not
Active
In
October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of
a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset is Not Active.” This FSP
clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” in a
market that is not active. The FSP also provides examples for determining
the fair value of a financial asset when the market for that financial asset is
not active. FSP FAS No. 157-3 was effective upon issuance, including prior
periods for which financial statements have not been issued. The impact of
adoption was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial condition or
results of operations.
The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting
principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the
preparation of financial statements. SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days
following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles". The implementation of this
standard will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial
position and results of operations.
Determination
of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets
In April
2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS No. 142-3, “Determination of the Useful Life of
Intangible Assets”, which amends the factors that should be considered in
developing renewal or extension assumptions used to determine the useful life of
intangible assets under SFAS No. 142 “Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets”. The intent of this FSP is to improve the consistency between the
useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142 and the period
of the expected cash flows used to measure the fair value of the asset under
SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) “Business Combinations” and other U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles. The implementation of FSP FAS No.
142-3 is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial
statements.
Disclosure
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosure about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of SFAS No.
133.” This statement requires that objectives for using derivative instruments
be disclosed in terms of underlying risk and accounting designation. The Company
was required to adopt SFAS No. 161 on January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS
No.161 on January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Company’s
consolidated financial statements
Fair
Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for
Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an amendment of SFAS No.
115,” which becomes effective on February 1, 2008, permits companies to choose
to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and
report unrealized gains and losses in earnings. Such accounting is optional and
is generally to be applied instrument by instrument. The election of this
fair-value option did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial
condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.

Fair
Value Measurements
In
September 2006, the FASB No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“SFAS No. 157”).
SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair
value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and expands
disclosures about fair value investments. SFAS No. 157 was effective for
financial assets and liabilities on January 1, 2008. The statement deferred the
implementation of the provisions of SFAS No. 157 relating to certain
non-financial assets and liabilities until January 1, 2009. The adoption of SFAS
No.157 on January 1, 2009 for financial assets and liabilities did not have a
material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

In
January 2007, the Company acquired exclusive rights to establish a distribution

If
in the period up to January 2010, the Megola Group purchases, in the

and
|
|
(b)

and
|
|
(c)

NOTE
PAYABLE
|
Megola,
FireStop USA, LLC ("FSU"), an unrelated party, and Pacific Channel Ltd. ("PCL")
have agreed that FSU will loan $250,000 to Megola under a note payable and
security agreement. FSU specified that no interest on the loan will be due if
the loan is repaid in full within six months. Any amounts owing after six months
will be subject to interest at 15% per annum. As security for the loan, Megola
pledged a first priority interest in the U.S. manufacturing rights for the
Hartindo line of products. No interest has been accrued or paid on the
loan for the year ended July 31, 2008.
On March
1, 2008, FSU assigned the loan to PCL with modifications as follows: the
security pledge to FSU was voided; the due date was extended to December 31,
2009 per agreement; PCL reserved the right to further extend the due date and
interest-free period at their sole discretion.
On October 22, 2007, Megola signed a note and security
agreement with PCL to obtain additional funding in the amount of $292,980.
Megola, upon receipt of the loan, will incur no interest should the loan be
repaid after specified time period. Any amounts still owing after the period,
unless such date is extended by PCL, will be subject to a 15% rate of interest.
The due
date on the entire amounts loaned will be December 31, 2009.
As
security for the loan, Megola has pledged to PCL the right to revoke Megola’s
Licensing Agreement to the Hartindo line of products. No interest has been
accrued or paid on the loan for the year ended July 31, 2008.
During
the year, PCL assumed several vendor invoices on behalf of the company in the
amount of $42,690. The amount is non-interest bearing and PCL waived their
right to demand payment before January 1, 2010. PCL reserved the right to
further extend the due date and interest-free period at their sole
discretion. The amount of imputed interest for the year ended July 31,
2008 is not material.
On April
30, 2009, Megola satisfied this entire note by issuing Preferred B stock in
exchange for the debt.

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.

RESEARCH
AND DEVELOPMENT
|
In 2008,
Megola had $38,831 in research and development related expenditures. Much work
had been completed in furthering the potential marketability of the Hartindo
product line. In 2009, expenses were significantly reduced
to $12,527 due to securing the services of our distribution groups. Each of our
distribution groups has focused their research and development efforts around
their prospective sales prospects and opportunities.

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. The Company's deferred tax
assets, in the amount of $2,055,821 ($1,230,100 in 2008) consist entirely of
benefit from net operating loss (NOL) carry forwards.
The
Company’s deferred tax assets are offset by a valuation allowance due to the
uncertainty of the realization of the net operating loss carry forwards. Net
operating loss carry forwards in the amount of $4,375,471 ($3,465,072 in 2008)
may be further limited by a change in ownership and other provisions of the tax
laws.
Income
taxes at the combined federal and state rates are as follows:

EARINING
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, 2009, 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.

DISCLOSURE

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, 2009. 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, 2009, 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,
2009 and for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2009 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, 2009 and for the
fiscal year ending July 31, 2009, 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, 2009.
There is
a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of July
31, 2009 and for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2009 covered by the Annual
Report filed on Form 10-K. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination
of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that
there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s
annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a
timely basis.
The
Company is in the process of evaluating its material weaknesses and has already
begun remediation procedures to address these weaknesses. In an effort to
remediate the identified material weaknesses and enhance its internal controls,
the Company has initiated, or plans to initiate, the following series of
measures:
|
·
|
Recently
hired a CFO
|
|
·
|
identify
a communication process such that transactions entered into by executive
management are communicated in a timely and effective manner to avoid
unnecessary financial reporting delays and
adjustments;
|
|
·
|
establish
comprehensive formal general accounting policies and procedures and
require employees, or consultants in areas such as accounting, reporting
and administration, to facilitate sign off of such policies and procedures
with executive management as documentation of their understanding of and
compliance with Company policies;
and
|
|
·
|
finalize
formal policies governing accounting transaction and financial reporting
processes which were started as part of this
endeavor.
|
37
The
Company continued to have the material weaknesses outlined above throughout
2008; however due to increased personnel in 2009, the Company believes that it
will be able to implement the above remedial measures by July 31, 2010.
Additionally, the Company plans to test its updated internal control over
financial reporting by 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-KSB.
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, 2009,
that materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the
Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Code
of Ethics
We do not
currently have a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial
or accounting officer.
Compliance
with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act
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 2009
beneficial owners complied with Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to
them.

Inc. has formed an Advisory Board that consist of individuals that it believes
to be an important group of people that will play an integral role in assisting
Megola in the overall growth of the company. The Company will turn, from time to
time, to its Advisory Board for direction and advice on certain business matters
of the company. Nothing has been compensated to these individuals but maybe
figured into the future.
Item
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 51,189,000 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.

Independence
Director
Independence
We are
not subject to the listing requirements of any national securities exchange or

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.
