PART I
 
Item 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 to www.megola.com.

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.

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 Models:
TFK
SG
SG100
SG200
SG300
SG400
SG500
SG1000

Manufacturing:

The 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

 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.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.

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.

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

MEGOLA, INC.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the Years ended July 31, 2010 and 2009
(Amounts expressed in US dollars)

1. 
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 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

3.
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, 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. During the year-ended July 31, 2010 the company incurred an aggregated foreign currency translation loss of $118,769.

(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

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, accounts receivable and payable approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
Fair value 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 cost 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 (continued)

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 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, 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 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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

(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, 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 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.

The fair value of share based payments granted to employees and non-employees is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

(s) Recent accounting pronouncements
 
Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting 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.

INTANGIBLE ASSET
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.

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.

CAPITAL STOCK AND ADDITIONAL PAID IN CAPITAL (continued)

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; however, an error was made in the transmittal of the request and subsequently was not processed until this time.

That value will be based on the average closing bid price of the common stock for each of the ten (10) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the date 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 sale any units related to CY Holding’s equipment.

12.
CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

On July 16, 2010, a third party loaned the Company $20,000. The loan bears a rate of interest of 9% per annum and is payable on April 6, 2011 or such earlier date as this Debenture is required or permitted to be repaid as provided hereunder (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest to the Holder on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of this Debenture at the rate of 9% per annum, payable on the Maturity Date, unless the Debenture is converted to shares of common stock in accordance with the terms and conditions herein.. The holder of the note has the right to convert the note into common stock of the Company at a price of $0.01 per share of common stock or a price of seventy percent (70%) of the average of the two lowest volume weighted average prices (“VWAPs”), determined on the then current trading market for the Company’s common stock, for ten (10) trading days prior to conversion (the “Set Price”), at the option of the Holder, in whole at any time and from time to time. 

13.
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.

14.
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.

15.
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 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
 
None—Not Applicable
 
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 currently have a Code of Ethics applicable to our principal executive, financial or accounting officer.


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.

Item 11. Executive Compensation

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 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.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

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 required to have our board comprised of a majority of “independent directors.” 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.
