BUSINESS.
OVERVIEW
The following discussion and analysis summarizes our plan of
operation for the next twelve months and our results of operations for the year
ended June 30, 2011. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation.
Quantum Solar Power Corp. formerly QV, Quantum Ventures, Inc.
was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on April 14, 2004. From
2004 to 2009 we had been engaged in the software development business. Our
business plan was to develop and commercialize the MediFlow Software Program, a
medical tracking software program that will assist healthcare professionals in
diagnosing and recommending treatment for patients. We decided to shift our
business focus to solar energy in late 2009.
Our principal executive office is located in Vancouver, British
Columbia, Canada. Our principal business is the research, development and
marketing of next generation solar power generation devices utilizing our patent
pending technology (the Next Generation Device or NGD Technology) for
photovoltaic devices that do not use silicon or other, rare earth elements. Once
we have completed development, we expect to derive substantially all revenues
from royalty based licensing arrangements.
We are currently in the business of developing and marketing
our NGD Technology for the production of solar energy utilizing our NGD
Technology. The NGD Technology which is covered by two provisional U.S.
patents, differs from conventional solar technology as it does not require
expensive silicon based absorber components or rare earth elements. Our
researchers at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, Canada have
developed and built a proof of concept prototype of a next generation device
utilizing the NGD Technology (see Technology Acquisition and
NGD
TM
Technology below).
We are a development stage company. We have not earned any
revenue to date nor have we engaged in any licensing agreements to date. We do
not anticipate earning revenue until we have completed the development and
testing of our NGD Technology. We are presently in the development stage of our
business and we can provide no assurance that we will be able to complete
commercial development or successfully sell or license products incorporating
our solar power generation devices, once development and testing is complete. We
have limited operations. We conduct all of our research and development on a
contractual basis with Simon Fraser University. We have relied on the sale of
our securities and loans or capital infusions from our officers and directors to
fund our operations to date.

RECENT CORPORATE DEVELOPMENTS
Since the filing of our Quarterly Report for the fiscal quarter
ended March 31, 2011 with the SEC, we experienced the following significant
corporate developments:
Public Relations Agreement
On June 21, 2011, we entered into a public relations agreement
(the Vorticom Agreement), with Vorticom Inc. (Vorticom). Under the terms of
the Vorticom Agreement, Vorticom has agreed to provide us with public relations
services in the media and with other marking communication activities. The
Vorticom Agreement is effective July 5, 2011 and is for a term of 12 months. In
consideration of Vorticoms business advisory services, we will pay $5,625 USD
per month and grant 1,875 warrants (the Warrants) each month, to purchase
shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 until the earlier of
July 5, 2012 or the termination of the Agreement. The Warrants are to be issued
quarterly. We have agreed to reimburse Vorticom for applicable out-of-pocket
expenses. We may cancel the Agreement at any time by providing 30 days notice.
Advantag Agreement
On July 18, 2011, we entered into a consulting agreement (the “Advantag Agreement”), with Advantag Aktiengesellschaft (“Advantag”), whereby Advantag has agreed to assist us with listing on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. The Advantag Agreement will be in effect for the duration of the listing process. In consideration of Advantag’s services we will pay a total of 18,000 EUR to Advantag as follows:
|
(i)
|
6,000 EUR at the time of execution;
|
|
|
|
|
(ii)
|
6,000 EUR at the time the prospectus is drafted, prior to
its filing; and
|
|
|

|
(iii)
|
6,000 EUR following successful approval by the Federal
Financial Supervisory Authority.
|
We will also pay hourly rates for any consulting services not
directly related to the prospectus.
Appointment of Directors and Chairman
On July 22, 2011, we appointed Steven Pleging as a Director and
Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company. Also on July 22, 2011, we
appointed Andras Pattantyus-Abraham, our Chief Technology Officer as a Director
of the Company.
Quorum Agreement
On August 5, 2011, we entered into a consulting agreement (the
Quorum Agreement), with Quorum Capital Corporation (QCC). Under the terms of
the Quorum Agreement, QCC has agreed to provide consulting services to assist us
in our activities in Germany. The Quorum Agreement is effective July 8, 2011 and
is for a term of 6 months renewing for an additional 6 months automatically at
the end of each term. In consideration of QCC consulting services, we will pay
$5,000 CDN on exercise of the agreement and $2,000 CDN per month commencing
September 8, 2011. We will also grant 2,000,000 options (the Options) to QCC,
to purchase shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 USD until
July 7, 2014. 333,335 of the Options are to be issued on execution and the
remainder of the Options will be issued in monthly increments of 333,333
commencing August 8, 2011. We have agreed to pay a rate of $125 CDN per hour for
any additional hours of work performed and to reimburse QCC for approved
expenses. We may cancel the Agreement at any time by providing 30 days notice.
On August 8, 2011, the Company issued 666,668 of the Options to
QCC in accordance with the terms of the Agreement pursuant to the provisions of
Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933 (the Act). QCC represented that it
was not a "U.S. Person" as defined under Regulation S and is not acquiring the
shares for the account or benefit of a U.S. Person.
4
Foreign Private Placement Offering
On August 9, 2011, our Board of Directors approved a private
placement offering of up to 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of
$1.00 per share (the Foreign Private Placement). This offering will be made to
persons who are not U.S. Persons as defined under Regulation S of the Act.
We intend use the net proceeds from these financings to further
develop its NGD
TM
Technology and for working capital purposes. There
is no assurance that the Foreign Private Placement will be completed on the
above terms or at all.
Appointment of Director and Vice President of Corporate
Development
On August 23, 2011, our Board of Directors appointed Stella Guo
as our Vice President of Corporate Development and as a Director effective
September 1, 2011.
We entered into an employment agreement (the Employment
Agreement) with Ms. Guo, dated August 23, 2011, whereby Ms. Guo will act as
Vice President of Corporate Development of the Corporation effective September
1, 2011. Under the terms of the Agreement, Ms. Guo will receive a salary of
$100,000 US per year and options to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the
Corporations common stock at a price of $1.00 per share until August 31, 2014,
in accordance with the Corporations 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2011 Stock
Incentive Plan"). The Employment Agreement is for a term of one year, renewable
automatically for an additional year at the end of the first and, if renewed, a
second year if no notice of termination has been provided.
Executive Services Agreement
On August 31, 2011, we entered into an executive services
agreement (the Executive Services Agreement) dated for reference August 8,
2011, among Team Solar BV (TSBV), Steven Pleging and the Company. Under the
Executive Services Agreement, TSBV will provide the services of Mr. Pleging who
will act as our Chairman and TSBV will receive 12,000 EUR each month, during the
first three months and 15,000 EUR each month for each subsequent month the
Executive Services Agreement is in effect.
Mr. Pleging is required to achieve the following targets under
the Agreement:
|
(a)
|
obtain cash flow to us of EUR 3,000,000 either through
equity, industry partnering or licensing by January 8, 2012 (the First
Target); and
|
|
|
|
|
(b)
|
generate additional cash flow to us of EUR 5,000,000 by
April 8, 2013 (the Second Target).
|
TSBV or at its option Mr. Pleging, shall receive a bonus of
250,000 shares of the our common stock if Mr. Pleging achieves the First Target
and the Executive Services Agreement has not been otherwise terminated. In the
event Mr. Pleging fails to meet the First Target but raises at least EUR
1,000,000 TSBV or at it option Mr. Pleging, will be entitled to receive a
proportional amount of the 250,000 shares.
The term is for a period of one year, renewing automatically if
notice of termination has not been provided by August 7, 2012. We may terminate
the Executive Services Agreement if Mr. Pleging fails to achieve the First
Target or the Second Target.
If the Executive Services Agreement is extended at the end of
the Term, TSBV or at its option Mr. Pleging, shall receive an additional 250,000
shares of our common stock and Mr. Pleging shall receive options to purchase
1,500,000 shares of our common stock at a price determined by our Board of
Directors in accordance with our 2011 Stock Option Plan (the Options).
TECHNOLOGY ACQUISITION
We acquired the NGD
TM
Technology on December 16,
2009 by an agreement (the Technology Acquisition Agreement) with Canadian
Integrated Optics (IOM) Limited, (CIO). In consideration of the NGD
Technology, we issued 71,500,000 shares of our common stock to CIO (of which CIO
transferred over 99%
5
pursuant to the terms of a takeover bid, under Canadian
Securities Laws) and Desmond Ross, our former director and executive officer,
returned 47,000,000 shares to the treasury. Under the Technology Acquisition
Agreement, we also agreed to pay CIO, or such other parties designated by CIO,
for ongoing development and research costs under CIOs existing research
agreement (the CIO Research Agreement) with Simon Fraser University (SFU).
The initial term of the CIO Research Agreement was until July 30, 2010.
Subsequent to entering into the Technology Acquisition
Agreement, CIO entered into an amendment agreement to the CIO Research
Agreement, whereby SFU agreed to extend the term until December 31, 2010 and in
consideration of which we paid $310,076 CDN. On December 23, 2010, CIO entered
into another amendment agreement dated January 1, 2011, whereby SFU agreed to
further extend the term until July 31, 2011 and in consideration of which we
will pay $476,482 CDN plus expenses, during the term. On July 28, 2011, CIO
entered into another amendment agreement dated July 2, 2011, whereby SFU agreed
to further extend the term until December 31, 2011 and in consideration of which
we will pay $599,593 CDN plus expenses, during the term.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2011 we paid $2,312,977 USD under the CIO Research Agreement.
NGD TECHNOLOGY
Our NGD Technology is a patent pending, technology and proof
of concept prototype for producing solar power without the necessity of
utilizing expensive silicon based absorber components or other rare earth
elements.
Solar cells based on the NGD Technology can reach a regime of
cost and efficiency not obtainable with conventional solar cells. As a result,
we believe our NGD Technology has the potential to enable the manufacture of
solar cells at significantly less cost per Watt than current producers.
Thin Film solar cell technologies have proven inexpensive to
manufacture but are at present only capable of efficiencies in the 10% power
conversion efficient (PCE) range. Crystalline silicon solar cells are in the
15% to 20% PCE range but are very expensive to manufacture due to the cost of
silicon processing. The reason for both these shortfalls is directly linked with
the semiconductors used in the fabrication process.
All currently available solar cell technologies rely on a
photovoltaic effect in which an incoming solar photon knocks loose a negative
charge, leaving behind a positive charge, in a semiconducting material such as
silicon. The positive and negative charges are then collected through separate
conducting layers to be delivered as current to a load. Defects within the
semiconductor layer can affect the power conversion efficiency by reducing the
voltage and the current delivered to the load. Elimination of these defects can
only occur through expensive purification and processing.
The NGD™ Technology’s principle of operation avoids the detrimental effects of defects within the semiconductor absorber layers by disposing of it altogether, and thus has the potential to simultaneously satisfy the requirements of high power conversion efficiencies and low costs. In addition, by eliminating expensive and exotic materials and manufacturing in a continuous rather than batch or wafer based process, we believe module costs can be reduced well below $1 per Watt-peak (W
p
), the nominal price of a solar module widely recognized as the standard of solar commercial enablement.
The market for solar energy has been limited by the costs of
panels and by their low efficiencies. Quantum expects that with its low cost,
high efficiency NGD that the economics of solar power will prove to be superior
to alternatives and that new and unforeseen markets will open for solar devices.
The solar panel business has been in a high growth phase over
the past years however it is not sustainable since the growth has been
fundamentally based on the availability of tax incentives, subsidies and other
inducements. The economics of unsubsidized solar power are not attractive except
in certain niche applications where choices are limited and the high costs can
be justified.
An average crystalline silicon cell solar module has an
efficiency of 15%, an average thin film cell solar module has an efficiency of
6%. Thin film manufacturing costs potentially are lower, though. Crystalline
silicon cell technology forms about 90% of solar cell demand. The balance comes
from thin film technologies.
6
Approximately 45% of the cost of a silicon cell solar module is
driven by the cost of the silicon wafer, a further 35% is driven by the
materials required to assemble the solar module.
Thin film manufacturer First Solar is reported in some
publications to have approximately $6 billion in contracts between 2010 and
2013. If First Solar were to have the opportunity to accept contracts worth $1
trillion and had the manufacturing capability to fulfill these contracts they
would still be inhibited and negatively governed by material availability.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, there is enough tellurium available in
global reserves to meet only 0.02 Terawatts (TRW) of energy provision using
existing thin film technology. The same applies to San Jose, California-based
Nanosolars Indium supply. Both companies current material choices (according to
the Andrea Feltrin, Alex Freundlich Report, Photovoltaics and Nanostructures
Laboratories, Center for Advanced Materials and Physics Department, University
of Houston, Texas) limits these companies forever to sub-Gigawatt energy
production (maximum 0.02 TRW per year).
Current Thin Film companies are coming close to competing
commercially with coal but the materials they use such as tellurium and indium
are very rare and capable of meeting only 0.13% of the worldwide energy demand
even if they accessed the entire worldwide reserves of these materials.
THE INDUSTRY
Energy is the most critical issue of the new century. Energy is
a necessary part of the solution to all of the other great problems of our age
which include access to clean water, wholesome food, a sustainable environment,
an end to poverty, widely available education, democracy and a stable
population. The provision of electrical energy was a $1 trillion per year in
2007 and expected to grow to $2 trillion by 2025. There are a variety of ways in
which electrical energy can be generated; many involve burning fossil fuels
(coal, oil, natural gas, etc.) with the concerns regarding CO2 related climate
change this is becoming a less acceptable solution.
Renewable energy is the fastest growth segment of the
electrical generation market. Solar power may ultimately be the answer to the
energy needs of the world. In 2011, however, solar power remains ill-equipped
for prime time deployment. This is due to the costs of installing such systems
and therefore of the cost of the electrical energy they generate being much
higher than the alternatives. There are at least two easily addressed causes for
the high cost of solar, one is the costs of the panels themselves and the other
is their energy conversion efficiency.
We have developed a revolutionary and disruptive new product
solution for the conversion of solar energy to electricity.
CUSTOMERS
We will not have direct interaction with end users customers.
We plan to license the NGD Technology to original equipment manufacturers
(OEMs) and derive our revenue from licensee fees and royalties from sales by
OEMs. There is no assurance that we will be able to license the technology to
OEMs or if we are able to license the technology, that OEMs will be able to
derive any revenues from which we would receive royalties.
COMPETITION
The renewable energy, solar energy and solar module sectors are
highly competitive and continually evolving as participants strive to
distinguish themselves within their markets and compete within the larger
electric power industry. In addition, we expect to compete with future entrants
to the photovoltaic industry that offer
7
new technological solutions. We may also face competition from
semiconductor manufacturers and semiconductor equipment manufacturers or their
customers, several of which have already announced their intention to start
production of photovoltaic cells, solar modules or turnkey production lines.
Some of these competitors may be part of larger corporations and have greater
financial resources and greater brand name recognition than we do and may, as a
result, be better positioned to adapt to changes in the industry or the economy
as a whole.
We also face competition from companies that currently offer or
are developing other renewable energy technologies (including wind, hydropower,
geothermal, biomass and tidal technologies) and other power generation sources
that burn conventional fossil fuels.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES
We are currently conducting research and development on the
NGD Technology. We expended $2,322,046 on research and development during the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2011.

RISK FACTORS.
If photovoltaic technology is not suitable for widespread
adoption, or if sufficient demand for solar modules does not develop or takes
longer to develop than we anticipate, we may never earn revenues or become
profitable.
The solar energy market is at a relatively early stage of
development and the extent to which solar modules will be widely adopted is
uncertain. If photovoltaic technology proves unsuitable for widespread adoption
or if demand for solar modules fails to develop sufficiently, we may be unable
to grow our business or generate sufficient net sales to sustain profitability.
In addition, demand for solar modules in our targeted may not develop or may
develop to a lesser extent than we anticipate. Many factors may affect the
viability of widespread adoption of photovoltaic technology and demand for solar
modules, including the following:
1.
|
cost-effectiveness of the electricity generated by
photovoltaic power systems compared to conventional energy sources and
products, including conventional energy sources, such as natural gas, and
other non-solar renewable energy sources, such as wind;
|
2.
|
availability and substance of government subsidies,
incentives and renewable portfolio standards to support the development of
the solar energy industry;
|
3.
|
performance and reliability of photovoltaic systems
compared to conventional and other non-solar renewable energy sources and
products;
|
4.
|
success of other renewable energy generation
technologies, such as hydroelectric, tidal, wind, geothermal, solar
thermal, concentrated photovoltaic, and biomass;
|
5.
|
fluctuations in economic and market conditions that
affect the price of, and demand for, conventional and non-solar renewable
energy sources, such as increases or decreases in the price of oil,
natural gas and other fossil fuels; and
|
6.
|
fluctuations in capital expenditures by end-users of
solar modules, which tend to decrease when the economy slows and interest
rates increase.
|
An increase in interest rates or lending rates or tightening
of the supply of capital in the global financial markets (including a reduction
in total tax equity availability) could make it difficult for end-users to
finance the cost of a photovoltaic
system and could reduce the demand for
solar modules utilizing our NGD Technology and/or lead to a reduction in the
average selling price for photovoltaic modules.
Many of potential solar technology customers will depend on
debt financing to fund the initial capital expenditure required to develop,
build and purchase a photovoltaic system. As a result, an increase in interest
rates or lending rates could make it difficult for our potential customers to
secure the financing necessary to develop, build, purchase or install a
photovoltaic system on favorable terms, or at all, and thus lower demand for our
solar modules which could limit our growth or reduce our net sales. Due to the
overall economic outlook, our end-users may change their decision or change the
timing of their decision to develop, build, purchase or install a photovoltaic
system. In addition, we believe that a significant percentage of our end-users
install photovoltaic systems as an investment, funding the initial capital
expenditure through a combination of equity and debt. An increase in interest
rates and/or lending rates could lower an investors return on investment in a
photovoltaic system, increase equity return requirements or make alternative
investments more attractive relative to photovoltaic systems, and, in each case,
could cause these end-users to seek alternative investments. A reduction in the
supply of project debt financing or tax equity investments could reduce the
number of solar projects that receive financing and thus lower demand for solar
modules.
Existing regulations and policies and changes to these
regulations and policies may present technical, regulatory and economic barriers
to the purchase and use of photovoltaic products, which may significantly reduce
demand for our solar modules.
The market for electricity generation products is heavily
influenced by foreign, federal, state and local government regulations and
policies concerning the electric utility industry, as well as policies
promulgated by electric utilities. These regulations and policies often relate
to electricity pricing and technical interconnection of customer-owned
electricity generation. In the United States and in a number of other countries,
these regulations and policies have been modified in the past and may be
modified again in the future. These
9
regulations and policies could deter end-user purchases of
photovoltaic products and investment in the research and development of
photovoltaic technology. For example, without a mandated regulatory exception
for photovoltaic systems, utility customers are often charged interconnection or
standby fees for putting distributed power generation on the electric utility
grid. If these interconnection standby fees were applicable to photovoltaic
systems, it is likely that they would increase the cost to our end-users of
using photovoltaic systems which could make them less desirable, thereby harming
our business, prospects, results of operations and financial condition. In
addition, electricity generated by photovoltaic systems mostly competes with
expensive peak hour electricity, rather than the less expensive average price of
electricity. Modifications to the peak hour pricing policies of utilities, such
as to a flat rate for all times of the day, would require photovoltaic systems
to achieve lower prices in order to compete with the price of electricity from
other sources.
We anticipate that solar modules utilizing our technology and
their installation will be subject to oversight and regulation in accordance
with national and local ordinances relating to building codes, safety,
environmental protection, utility interconnection and metering and related
matters. It is difficult to track the requirements of individual states and
design equipment to comply with the varying standards. Any new government
regulations or utility policies pertaining to our solar modules may result in
significant additional expenses to us, our resellers and their customers and, as
a result, could cause a significant reduction in demand for our solar modules.
We face intense competition from manufacturers of
crystalline silicon solar modules, thin film solar modules and solar thermal and
concentrated photovoltaic systems; if global supply exceeds global demand, it
could lead to a reduction in the average selling price for photovoltaic modules.
The solar energy and renewable energy industries are both
highly competitive and continually evolving as participants strive to
distinguish themselves within their markets and compete with the larger electric
power industry. Within the global photovoltaic industry, we face competition
from crystalline silicon solar module manufacturers, other thin film solar
module manufacturers and companies developing solar thermal and concentrated
photovoltaic technologies.
Even if demand for solar modules continues to grow, the rapid
expansion plans of many solar cell and module manufacturers could create periods
where supply exceeds demand.
During any such period, our competitors could decide to reduce
their sales price in response to competition, even below their manufacturing
cost, in order to generate sales. As a result our partners may be unable to sell
solar modules based on our technology at attractive prices, or for a profit,
during any period of excess supply of solar modules, which would reduce our net
sales and adversely affect our results of operations. Also, we may decide to
lower our average selling price to certain customers in certain markets in
response to competition.
Our failure to further refine our technology and develop and
introduce improved photovoltaic products could render solar modules based on our
technology uncompetitive or obsolete and reduce our net sales and market share.
We will need to invest significant financial resources in
research and development to continue to improve our module conversion efficiency
and to otherwise keep pace with technological advances in the solar energy
industry. However, research and development activities are inherently uncertain
and we could encounter practical difficulties in commercializing our research
results. We seek to continuously improve our products and processes, and the
resulting changes carry potential risks in the form of delays, additional costs
or other unintended contingencies. In addition, our significant expenditures on
research and development may not produce corresponding benefits. In addition,
other companies could potentially develop a highly reliable renewable energy
system that mitigates the intermittent power production drawback of many
renewable energy systems, or offers other value-added improvements from the
perspective of utilities and other system owners, in which case such companies
could compete with us even if the levelized cost of electricity associated with
such new system is higher than that of our systems. Our solar modules may be
rendered obsolete by the technological advances of our competitors, which could
reduce our net sales and market share.
10
Our failure to protect our intellectual property rights may
undermine our competitive position and litigation to protect our intellectual
property rights or defend against third-party allegations of infringement may be
costly.
Protection of our proprietary processes, methods and other
technology is critical to our business. Failure to protect and monitor the use
of our existing intellectual property rights could result in the loss of
valuable technologies. We rely primarily on patents, trademarks, trade secrets,
copyrights and contractual restrictions to protect our intellectual property.
Our existing provisional patents and future patents could be challenged,
invalidated, circumvented or rendered unenforceable. Our pending patent
applications may not result in issued patents, or if patents are issued to us,
such patents may not be sufficient to provide meaningful protection against
competitors or against competitive technologies.
We also rely upon unpatented proprietary manufacturing
expertise, continuing technological innovation and other trade secrets to
develop and maintain our competitive position. While we generally enter into
confidentiality agreements with our associates and third parties to protect our
intellectual property, such confidentiality agreements are limited in duration
and could be breached and may not provide meaningful protection for our trade
secrets or proprietary manufacturing expertise. Adequate remedies may not be
available in the event of unauthorized use or disclosure of our trade secrets
and manufacturing expertise. In addition, others may obtain knowledge of our
trade secrets through independent development or legal means. The failure of our
patents or confidentiality agreements to protect our processes, equipment,
technology, trade secrets and proprietary manufacturing expertise, methods and
compounds could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition,
effective patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may be
unavailable or limited in some foreign countries, especially any developing
countries into which we may expand our operations. In some countries we have not
applied for patent, trademark or copyright protection.
Third parties may infringe or misappropriate our proprietary
technologies or other intellectual property rights, which could have a material
adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results.
Policing unauthorized use of proprietary technology can be difficult and
expensive. Also, litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual
property rights, protect our trade secrets or determine the validity and scope
of the proprietary rights of others. We cannot assure you that the outcome of
such potential litigation will be in our favor. Such litigation may be costly
and may divert management attention and other resources away from our business.
An adverse determination in any such litigation may impair our intellectual
property rights and may harm our business, prospects and reputation. In
addition, we have no insurance coverage against litigation costs and would have
to bear all costs arising from such litigation to the extent we are unable to
recover them from other parties.
We have yet to attain profitable operations and we will need
additional financing to fund continued development of solar energy products.
We have incurred a net loss of $6,376,254 for the period from
inception to June 30, 2011, and have earned no revenues to date. We expect to
spend additional capital in order produce and market solar energy products which
we are licensed to do, and establish our infrastructure and organization to
support anticipated operations. We cannot be certain whether we will ever earn a
significant amount of revenues or profit, or, if we do, that we will be able to
continue earning such revenues or profit. Also, any economic weakness may limit
our ability to continue development and ultimately market our products and
services. Any of these factors could cause our stock price to decline and result
in investors losing a portion or all of their investment. These factors raise
substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern. We have
cash in the amount of $343,289 as at June 30, 2011.
Subsequent to our year end we received subscriptions for
530,000 shares of our common stock under our Foreign Private Placement offering
at a price of $1.00 per share.
We believe that we have obtained sufficient financing to fund
our anticipated expenditures for the next four months. However, business
activities beyond the next four months will require additional funding in the
event that our cash on hand is insufficient for any additional work proposed.
Our financial statements included with this Annual Report have
been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. If we are not
able to earn revenues, then we may not be able to continue as a going concern
and our financial condition and business prospects will be adversely affected.
These factors raise
11
substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going
concern and adversely affect our ability to obtain additional financing.
Our short operating history makes our business difficult to
evaluate, accordingly, we have a limited operating history upon which to base an
evaluation of our business and prospects.
Our business is in the early stage of development and we have
not generated any revenues or profit to date. We commenced our operations in
April, 2004. Because of our limited operating history, investors may not have
adequate information on which they can base an evaluation of our business and
prospects. To date, we have done the following:
1.
|
Completed organizational activities;
|
2.
|
Developed a business plan;
|
3.
|
Obtained interim funding;
|
4.
|
Engaged consultants for professional services;
and
|
5.
|
Acquired NGD Technology.
|
In order to establish ourselves as a technology supplier, we
are dependent upon continued funding and the successful development of the NGD
Technology and products. Failure to obtain funding for continued development and
marketing would result in us having difficulty establishing licensing agreements
for our technology or achieving profitability. Investors should be aware of the
increased risks, uncertainties, difficulties and expenses we face as a
development stage company and our business may fail and investors may lose their
entire investment.
We have a limited operating history upon which to base an
evaluation of our business and prospects. Our business and prospects must be
considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently
encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly
companies in new and rapidly evolving markets such as renewable energy. These
risks include the initial completion of a developed product, the demand for the
companys product, the companys ability to adapt to rapid technological change,
the level of product and price competition, the companys success in setting up
and expanding distribution channels and whether the company can develop and
market new products and control costs.
To address these risks, we must successfully implement our
business plan and marketing strategies. We may not successfully implement all or
any of our business strategies or successfully address the risks and
uncertainties that we encounter. We have no history of earning revenues and
there is no assurance that we will be able to generate revenues from sales or
that the revenues generated will exceed the operating costs of our business.
Operating results are difficult to predict, with the result
that we may not achieve profitability and our business may fail.
Our future financial results are uncertain due to a number of
factors, many of which are outside our control. These factors include:
1.
|
Our ability to successfully license our technology to
OEMs and the ability of licensees to attract customers;
|
2.
|
Our ability to generate revenue through the licensing of
the NGD Technology;
|
3.
|
The amount and timing of costs relating to expansion of
our operations;
|
4.
|
The announcement or introduction of competing
distributors and products of competitors; and
|
5.
|
General economic conditions and economic conditions
specific to the solar power generation.
|
We believe that we can compete favorably on these factors.
However, we will have no control over how successful our competitors are in
addressing these factors. These factors could negatively impact on our financial
results, with the result that we may not achieve profitability and our business
may fail.
We will require additional financing and may not be able to
continue operations if additional financing is not obtained.
12
As of June 30, 2011, we had cash in the amount of $343,289. Our
total expenditures over the next twelve months are anticipated to be
approximately $12,600,000, the majority of which is due to the development and
marketing of our products and general, legal, accounting and administrative
expenses associated with our reporting obligations under the Exchange Act.
Depending on the success of our initial marketing efforts, we estimate that we
will require further funding to implement an advertising campaign to establish
and enhance awareness of our products.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
assuming that we will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 of our
June 30, 2011 year end audited financial statements, we are in the development
stage of operations, have had losses from operations since inception, and have
insufficient working capital available to meet ongoing financial obligations
over the next fiscal year. After the fiscal year end, we will require additional
financing for any operational expenses and to pursue our plan of operation. We
will require additional capital and financing in order to continue otherwise our
business will fail. We have no agreements for additional financing and there can
be no assurance that additional funding will be available to us on acceptable
terms in order to enable us to complete our plan of operation.
We will depend on recruiting and retaining qualified
personnel and the inability to do so would seriously harm our business.
Our success is dependent in part on the services of certain key
management personnel, including Steven Pleging, our Chairman, Daryl J.
Ehrmantraut, our Chief Executive Officer and President, Dr. Andras
Pattantyus-Abraham, our Chief Technology Officer, Graham R. Hughes, our Chief
Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer, and Stella Guo, our Vice President
of Corporate Development. We have an employment agreement with Mr. Ehrmantraut,
Mr. Pleging and Ms. Guo. We do not have employment agreements with Mr. Hughes or
Dr. Pattantyus-Abraham. We do not have any employment agreements with any third
parties providing services to us. The experience of these individuals is an
important factor contributing to our success and growth and the loss of one or
more of these individuals could have a material adverse effect on our company.
Our future success also depends on our attracting, retaining and motivating
highly skilled personnel and we may be unable to retain our key personnel or
attract, assimilate or retain other highly qualified personnel in the
future.
We may become liable for defects or patent disputes that
arise and this could negatively affect our business.
We may become liable for any defects that exist in the NGD
Technology, or any patent disputes. If we are deemed to be liable for any
defects or licensing issues, this will have a material adverse impact on our
financial condition and results of operation.
Because we are significantly smaller and less established we
may lack the financial resources necessary to compete effectively and sustain
profitability.
Our future success depends on our ability to compete
effectively with other distributors of other solar technology. Many of these
competitors are more established, offer more products, services and features,
have a greater number of clients, locations, and employees, and also have
significantly greater financial, technical, marketing, public relations, name
recognition, and other resources than we have. While our objective is to
continue to develop our technology, if we do not compete effectively with
current and future competitors, we may not generate enough revenue to be
profitable. Any of these factors could cause our stock price to decline and
result in investors losing a portion or all of their investment. Increased
competition may result in increased operating costs and the inability to
generate revenues, any one of which could materially adversely affect our
business, results of operations and financial condition. Many of our current and
potential competitors have significantly greater financial, marketing, customer
support, technical and other resources than us. As a result, such competitors
may be able to attract potential customers away from us, and they may be able to
devote greater resources to the development and promotion of their products than
we can.
We do not intend to pay dividends in the near future.
We have not declared any dividends and we do not plan to
declare any dividends in the foreseeable future. Our board of directors
determines whether to pay dividends on our issued and outstanding shares. The
13
declaration of dividends will depend upon our future earnings,
our capital requirements, our financial condition and other relevant factors.
The Nevada Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends
where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1.
|
We would not be able to pay our debts as they become due
in the usual course of business; or
|
|
|
2.
|
Our total assets would be less than the sum of our total
liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy the rights of
stockholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the
distribution.
|
Our board does not intend to declare any dividends on our
shares for the foreseeable future.
Our business is exposed to foreign currency fluctuations
causing negative changes in exchange rates to result in greater costs.
A portion of our expenses and capital spending will be
transacted in Canadian dollars. We do not have a foreign currency hedging
program in place. Due to the unpredictable behavior of foreign currency exchange
rate fluctuations we cannot assure that this will not have a material adverse
impact on our financial condition and results of operation.
Because our stock is a penny stock, stockholders will be
more limited in their ability to sell their stock.
The SEC has adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices
in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally
equity securities with a price of less than $5.00, other than securities
registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ
system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to
transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or quotation
system.
Because our securities constitute "penny stocks" within the
meaning of the rules, the rules apply to us and to our securities. The rules may
further affect the ability of owners of shares to sell our securities in any
market that might develop for them. As long as the quotation price of our common
stock is less than $5.00 per share, the common stock will be subject to Rule
15g-9 under the Exchange Act. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer,
prior to a transaction in a penny stock, to deliver a standardized risk
disclosure document prepared by the SEC, that:
1.
|
contains a description of the nature and level of risk in
the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary
trading;
|
|
|
2.
|
contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties
to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer
with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of
securities laws;
|
|
|
3.
|
contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a
dealer market, including bid and ask prices for penny stocks and the
significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
|
|
|
4.
|
contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on
disciplinary actions;
|
|
|
5.
|
defines significant terms in the disclosure document or
in the conduct of trading in penny stocks; and
|
|
|
6.
|
contains such other information and is in such form,
including language, type, size and format, as the SEC shall require by
rule or regulation.
|
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any
transaction in a penny stock, the customer with: (a) bid and offer quotations
for the penny stock; (b) the compensation of the broker-dealer and its
salesperson in the transaction; (c) the number of shares to which such bid and
ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and
liquidity of the market for such stock; and (d) a monthly account statements
showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account. In
addition, the
14
penny stock rules require that, prior to a transaction in a
penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, the broker-dealer must make a
special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for
the purchaser and receive the purchaser's written acknowledgment of the receipt
of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving
penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement.
These disclosure requirements may have the effect of reducing the trading
activity in the secondary market for our stock.

Holders of Our Common Stock
As of August 23, 2011, there were 146,987,692 shares of our
common stock issued and outstanding that are held of record by 216
registered stockholders. We believe that a number of stockholders hold stock
on deposit with their brokers or investment bankers registered in the name of
stock depositories.
Performance Graph
The performance graph above shows the total stockholder return
of investment made on June 30, 2011 for our common stock, the NASDAQ composite
and the Russell 3000 Technology. All values assume reinvestment of the full
amount of all dividends. We have selected the Russell 3000 Technology index for
comparison purposes, as we do not believe we can reasonably identify an
appropriate peer group index. The comparisons

show in the graph below is not indicative of, nor is it
intended to forecast, the future performance of our common stock.
Dividends
We have not declared any dividends on our common stock since
our inception. There are no dividend restrictions that limit our ability to pay
dividends on our common stock in our Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws. Our
governing statute, Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statute (NRS), does
provide limitations on our ability to declare dividends. Section 78.288 of the
NRS prohibits us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the
distribution of the dividend:
(a)
|
we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due
in the usual course of business; or
|
|
|
(b)
|
our total assets would be less than the sum of our total
liabilities plus the amount that would be needed, if we were to be
dissolved at the time of distribution, to satisfy the preferential rights
upon dissolution of stockholders who may have preferential rights and
whose preferential rights are superior to those receiving the distribution
(except as otherwise specifically allowed by our Articles of
Incorporation).

As of June 30, 2011, we had cash on hand of $343,289. Since our
inception, we have used our common stock to raise money for our operations and
for our acquisition. We have not attained profitable operations and are
dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our plan of operation. For these
reasons, our auditors
17
stated in their report to our audited financial statements for
the year ended June 30, 2011, that there is substantial doubt that we will be
able to continue as a going concern.
We have no revenues to date from our inception. We anticipate
continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to continue to
fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in
dilution to our existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will
achieve any of additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or
other financing for to fund our planned business activities.

FINANCIAL
CONDITION
AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
|
PLAN OF OPERATION
The following discussion and analysis summarizes our plan of
operation for the next twelve months, our results of operations for the year
ended June 30, 2011 and changes in our financial condition from June 30,
2010
.
If we can obtain sufficient financing we intend to continue the
final development of our NGD Technology, and identify and engage original
equipment manufacturers (OEMs) interested in licensing our technology. We
anticipate that the licensing agreements will be between us and OEMs with the
expertise and facilities required to mass manufacture solar cells based on our
NGD Technology and that the OEMs will distribute the solar cells worldwide
using their existing sales and marketing channels and at their expense. The cost
of manufacture will be solely the responsibility of the OEMs. We expect to
receive revenue on royalties based on the number of cells produced by the OEMs.
This business model should allow us to maximize capital resources available at
startup and through our OEM licensees positively address the demand for high
efficiency solar cell devices. This business model should enable us to increase
revenues and create brand recognition without the time, capital and risk
associated with manufacturing plant construction.
There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain sufficient
financing to proceed with our plan of operation.
RESULTS OF OPERATION
For the period from inception on April 14, 2004 to June 30,
2011, we have not earned any operating revenue. We had an accumulated net loss
of $6,376,254 since inception. We incurred total operating expenses of
$6,270,254 since inception.
We have not earned any revenues since inception. We do not
anticipate earning revenues until such time as we complete further development
of, and enter into licensing agreements for our NGD Cell Technology. We are
presently in the development stage of our business and we can provide no
assurance that we will be able to generate revenues from sales of our product or
that the revenues generated will exceed the operating costs of our business.
Administrative Expenses
We have incurred administrative expenses in the amount of
$6,270,254 for the period from April 14, 2004 (inception) to June 30, 2011.
Administrative expenses for this period included the following expenses:

Our administrative expenses for the fiscal year ended 2011 have
increased primarily as a result of increased operations in the development of
our NGD
TM
Technology. This has resulted in increased research and
development activities and general and administrative expenses. All expenses
increased from fiscal 2010 to 2011.
Professional fees related to the acquisition of the NGD
TM
Technology and meeting our ongoing reporting requirements with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
We anticipate our operating expenses will increase as we
undertake our plan of operation. The increase will be attributable to our
development, of our NGD solar cell technology. We also anticipate our ongoing
operating expenses will also increase as a result of our ongoing reporting
requirements under the Exchange Act.
Net Loss
We incurred a loss in the amount of $6,376,254 for the period
from inception to June 30, 2011. Our loss was attributable to the costs of
operating expenses which primarily consisted of research and development costs,
general and administrative expenses and professional fees paid in connection
with acquiring our assets, preparing and filing our Current, Quarterly and
Annual Reports.

As at June 30, 2011, we had cash of $343,289 and a working
capital surplus of $182,548.
The change in our working capital at June 30, 2011 from our
year ended June 30, 2010 are primarily a result of the decreases in accounts
payable and accrued liabilities, subscription received in advance and our
revolving line of credit with CIO. The increase in our cash used during the
period ended on June 30, 2011, from the comparable periods of the preceding
fiscal years are due to the cost of our research and development activities
related to our NGD
TM
Technology and our professional fees related to
the preparation of our current, quarterly and annual reports filed on Forms 8-K,
10-Q and 10-K respectively, with the SEC and from the fact that we had no
revenue on June 30, 2011.
The decreases in our working capital at June 30, 2010 from our
year ended June 30, 2009 are primarily a result a result of the increases in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities, subscriptions received in advance and

period ended on June 30, 2010, from the comparable periods of the preceding

TM
Technology and our professional fees related to the acquisition thereto and the
preparation of our current, quarterly and annual reports filed on Forms 8-K,
10-Q and 10-K respectively, with the SEC and from the fact that we had no
revenue on June 30, 2010.
Future Financings
As of June 30, 2011, we had cash on hand of $343,289. Since our
inception, we have used our common stock to raise money for our operations and
for our acquisition. We have not attained profitable operations and are
dependent upon obtaining financing to pursue our plan of operation. For these
reasons, our auditors stated in their report to our audited financial statements
for the year ended June 30, 2011, that there is substantial doubt that we will
be able to continue as a going concern.
We have no revenues to date from our inception. We anticipate
continuing to rely on equity sales of our common stock in order to continue to
fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in
dilution to our existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will
achieve any of additional sales of our equity securities or arrange for debt or
other financing for to fund our planned business activities.
Foreign Private Placement
Our Board of Directors approved a private placement offering of
up to 3,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $1.00 per share (the
Foreign Private Placement). This offering will be made to persons who are not
U.S. Persons as defined under Regulation S of the Securities Act. We have not
issued any securities under this offering as at June 30, 2011.
We intend to use the net proceeds from these financings to
further develop its NGD
TM
Technology and for working capital
purposes. There is no assurance that the Foreign Private Placement will be
completed on the above terms or at all.
The above does not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy any of Quantums securities in the United
States. The securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may
not be offered or sold within the United States or to U.S. persons unless an
exemption from such registration is available.
Significant Trends, Uncertainties and Challenges
We believe that the significant trends, uncertainties and
challenges that directly or indirectly affect our financial performance and
results of operations include:
-
Our ability to achieve module efficiencies and other performance targets,
and to obtain necessary or desired certifications for our photovoltaic
modules, in a timely manner;
-
Our ability to license the technology to effective manufacturers and/or
distributers;
-
Our ability to achieve projected operational performance and cost metrics;
20
-
Our ability to consummate strategic relationships with key partners,
including original equipment manufacturer (OEM) customers, system integrators,
value added resellers and distributors who deal directly with manufacturers
and end-users.
-
The effect that currency fluctuations may have on our capital equipment
purchases, manufacturing costs and the price of our planned photovoltaic
modules;
-
Changes in the supply and demand for photovoltaic modules as well as
fluctuations in selling prices for photovoltaic modules worldwide;
-
Our ability to raise additional capital on terms favorable to us;
-
Our future strategic partners expansion of their manufacturing facilities,
operations and personnel; and
-
Our ability and the ability of our distributors, suppliers and customers to
manage operations and orders during financial crisis and financial downturn.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Our critical accounting policies are included in the Notes to
our Financial Statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
ITEM
7A.
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Foreign Currency Exchange Risk
The Company is actively engaged in research and development
activities internationally and is exposed to foreign currency risk. We currently
conduct significant research and development operations on a contractual basis
at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia, Canada.
We do not hold any derivative instruments and do not engage in
any hedging activities. Because most of our purchases and sales will made in
Canadian dollars, any exchange rate change affecting the value of the in
Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar could have an effect on our
financial results as reported in U.S. dollars. If the Canadian dollar were to
depreciate against the U.S. dollar, amounts reported in U.S. dollars would be
correspondingly reduced. If the in Canadian dollar were to appreciate against
the U.S. dollar, amounts reported in U.S. dollars would be correspondingly
increased.
Although our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar, we may
conduct business and incur costs in the local currencies of other countries in
which we may operate, make sales and buy materials. As a result, we are
21
subject to currency translation risk. Further, changes in
exchange rates between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar could affect our
future net sales and cost of sales and could result in exchange losses.
We cannot accurately predict future exchange rates or the
overall impact of future exchange rate fluctuations on our business, results of
operations and financial condition.
Interest Rate Risk
Our exposure to market risks for changes in interest rates
relates primarily to our cash equivalents. This can also have an effect on the
ability of manufacturers and consumers to obtain sufficient financing to
license, manufacture, distribute or purchase a device using our technology.
Commodity and Component Risk
Failure to receive timely delivery of production tools by our
future licensees equipment suppliers could delay manufacturing capacity and
materially and adversely affect our results of operations and financial
condition in future periods. The failure of any suppliers to perform could
disrupt our future licensees supply chain and impair our operations.
If delivery of production tools or raw materials are not made
on schedule or at all, then our licensees might be unable to carry out our
commercialization and manufacturing plans, produce photovoltaic modules in the
volumes and at the times that we expect or generate sufficient revenue from
operations, and our business, results of operations and financial condition
could be materially and adversely affected.
Credit Risk
We currently do not hold financial instruments that subject us
to credit risk.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Quantum Solar
Power Corp.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Quantum Solar
Power Corp. (the Company) as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related
statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years
ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from April 14, 2004 (Inception)
to June 30, 2011. Quantum Solar Power Corp.'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. An audit
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 the Company
as of June 30, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and for the period from April
14, 2004 (Inception) to June 30, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note
1 to the financial statements, the Company generated negative cash flows from
operating activities during the past year. The Company has an accumulated
deficit of approximately $6,748,254 for the year ended June 30, 2011. This
raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going
concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might
result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Companys
internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2011, based on criteria
established in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework
issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO), and our
report dated September 12, 2011 expressed an adverse opinion on the Companys
internal control over financial reporting because of material weaknesses.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Quantum Solar
Power Corp.
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting
of Quantum Solar Power Corp. (the Company) as of June 30, 2011 based on
criteria established in
Internal Control Integrated Framework
issued by
the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The
Companys management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control
over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal
control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Managements
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on the Companys internal control over financial reporting
based on our audit.
We conducted our audit 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 effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in
all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal
control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness
exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of
internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing
such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A companys internal control over financial reporting is a
process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of
financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external
purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A
companys internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable
detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the
assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are
recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with
authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized
acquisition, use, or disposition of the companys assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections
of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk
that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Companys annual or
interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely
basis. The following material weaknesses have been identified and included in
managements assessment: Management concluded that the Companys entity-level
controls related to the control environment, control activities, and monitoring
functions have not been designed adequately. With respect to the control
environment, control activities, and monitoring functions, management determined
that these material weaknesses were primarily attributable to a lack of
formalized policies and procedures, lack of independent directors and audit
committee, lack of segregation of duties in the expenditure cycle, lack of
controls to monitor financial reporting, lack of formalized accounting approval
and review procedures, and a lack of compliance and internal control function.
These material weaknesses contributed to the other material weaknesses described
below as well as to an environment where there is a reasonable possibility that
a material misstatement of the Companys annual or interim financial statements
will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Management also concluded
that inadequate segregation of duties and independent review have resulted in
ineffective controls in the expenditures, financial closing and reporting and
treasury processes. These material weaknesses were considered in determining the
nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audits of the financial
statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2011 of the Company, and this
report does not affect our report on those financial statements.
F-2
In our opinion, because of the effect of the material
weaknesses identified above on the achievement of the objectives of the control
criteria, the Company has not maintained effective internal control over
financial reporting as of June 30, 2011, based on the criteria established in
Internal ControlIntegrated Framework
issued by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the
Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the balance sheets of
the Company as of June 30, 2011 and the related statements of operations,
stockholders equity and cash flows for the years then ended and our report
dated September 12, 2011 expressed an unqualified opinion.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To The Stockholders and Board of Directors
of Quantum Solar Power Corp.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Quantum Solar Power Corp. (A Development Stage Company) as of June 30, 2009 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in consolidated stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2009. These 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 audit.
We conducted our audit 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 audit provides 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 Quantum Solar Power Corp. as of June 30, 2009, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended June 30, 2009 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements referred to above have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 1, the Company’s need to seek new sources or methods of financing or revenue to pursue its business strategy, raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans as to these matters are also described in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

|
NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
|
|
|
|
Quantum Solar Power Corp. (the Company) was
incorporated in Nevada on April 14, 2004. The Company is a development
stage company engaged in the business of developing and commercializing
next generation solar power technology under the name Next Generation
Device abbreviated NGD. Quantums NGD is a patent pending, functioning,
laboratory model that demonstrates its utility in solar power
conversion.
|
|
|
|
The Company operates in one reportable segment being the
research and development of solar power technology in Canada and the
United States of America. Revenues will be substantially derived from
royalty based licensing arrangements in this reporting segment.
|
|
|
|
Going Concern
|
|
|
|
These financial statements have been prepared consistent
with accounting policies generally accepted in the United States (U.S.
GAAP) assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. Currently,
the Company has no sales and has incurred a net loss of $4,728,538 for the
year ended June 30, 2011 and an accumulated loss of $6,376,254 for the
period from April 14, 2004 (inception) to June 30, 2011. The Company also
relies on patents and contractual restrictions to protect intellectual
property. The existing provisional and future patents could be challenged.
The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain
financing and protect its proprietary process upon future profitable
operations from development and commercialization of an NGD. Management
has plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public
offerings of its common stock. These factors raise substantial doubt that
the Company will be able to continue as a going concern.
|
|
|
|
Management's plans for the continuation of the Company as
a going concern include financing the Company's operations through
issuance of its common stock. If the Company is unable to complete its
financing requirements or achieve revenue as projected, it will then
modify its expenditures and plan of operations to coincide with the actual
financing completed and actual operating revenues. There are no
assurances, however, with respect to the future success of these
plans.
|
|
|
|
The accompanying financial statements do not include any
adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary
should the Company fail in any of the above objectives and is unable to
operate for the coming year.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
|
|
|
|
Basis of Presentation
|
|
|
|
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with U.S. GAAP and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The
financial statements have been prepared under the guidelines of Accounting
and Reporting by Development Stage Enterprises. A development stage
enterprise is one in which planned principal operations have not
commenced, or if its operations have commenced, there have been no
significant revenues therefrom. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had not
commenced its planned principal operations.
|
|
|
|
Use of estimates
|
|
|
|
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of these financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Significant accounts that require estimates relate to the valuation of
deferred tax assets, stock- based compensation, the estimated useful life
of equipment, and the valuation of shares issued for technology, bonuses
and services.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(contd)
|
|
|
|
Start-up expenses
|
|
|
|
The Company has adopted Standard of Position (SOP)
No.98-5 Reporting the Costs of Start-up Activities, which requires that
costs associated with start-up activities be expensed as incurred.
Accordingly, start-up costs associated with the Company's formation have
been included in the Company's general and administrative expenses for the
period from inception on April 14, 2004 to June 30, 2011.
|
|
|
|
Foreign currency translation
|
|
|
|
The Companys functional currency is the United States
dollar. There are significant transactions in Canadian dollars; these are
recorded in US dollars using the exchange rates in effect on the date the
transaction is recorded. The Company used the United States dollar as its
reporting currency for consistency with registrants of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Assets and liabilities that are denominated in a
foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the year
end and capital accounts are translated at historical rates. Income
statement accounts are translated at the average rates of exchange
prevailing during the period. Translation adjustments from the use of
different exchange rates from period to period are included in the
comprehensive income statement account in stockholders equity, if
applicable. There were no translation adjustments as of June 30,
2011.
|
|
|
|
Loss per Share and Potentially Dilutive
Securities
|
|
|
|
Basic loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss
available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding in the period. Diluted loss per share takes into
consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic earnings per
share) and potentially dilutive securities. The effect of 1,800,000
outstanding options and 50,000 outstanding warrants were not included in
the computation of diluted earnings per share because it was anti-dilutive
due to the Companys losses.
|
|
|
|
Fair value of financial instruments
|
|
|
|
The Company measures the fair value of financial assets
and liabilities based on the guidance of Fair Value Measurements which
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and
expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Effective July 1, 2008,
the Company adopted the policy for financial assets and liabilities, as
well as for any other assets and liabilities that are carried at fair
value on a recurring basis. The adoption of the provisions of this
accounting policy did not materially impact the Companys financial
position and results of operations.
|
|
|
|
The policy defines fair value as the exchange price that
would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit
price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the
measurement date. The policy also establishes a fair value hierarchy,
which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and
minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The
policy describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value:
|
Level 1
quoted prices in
active markets for identical assets and liabilities
Level 2
quoted prices for
similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are
observable
Level 3
inputs that are
unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)

Fair value of financial instruments
(contd)
|
|
|
|
Fair values
|
|
|
|
The fair value of receivables, line of credit and
accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their financial
statement carrying amounts due to the short-term maturities of these
instruments.
|
|
|
|
In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs
utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets.
Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are
observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair
values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the
asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any,
market activity for the asset. The Companys cash was measured using Level
1 inputs.
|
|
|
|
Foreign currency risk
|
|
|
|
The Company operates in Canada, which gives rise to the
risk that cash flows may be adversely impacted by exchange rate
fluctuations. The Company has not entered into any forward exchange
contracts or other derivative instrument to hedge against foreign exchange
risk.
|
|
|
|
Credit risk
|
|
|
|
Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a
counterpartys inability to fulfill its payment obligations. Management
believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to financial
instruments included in cash is remote. Receivables are due primarily from
consultants and are non-interest bearing.
|
|
|
|
Comprehensive loss
|
|
|
|
As of June 30, 2011 the Company has no items that
represent comprehensive loss and therefore, has not included a schedule of
comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
|
|
|
|
Income taxes
|
|
|
|
The Company accounts for income taxes under an asset and
liability approach, whereby deferred income tax liabilities or assets at
the end of each year are determined using the tax rate expected to be in
effect when the taxes are actually paid or recovered. A valuation
allowance is recognized on deferred tax assets when it is more likely than
not that some or all of these deferred tax assets will not be
realized.
|
|
|
|
Impairment of assets
|
|
|
|
The Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets
when applicable to determine if any events or changes in circumstances
have transpired which indicate that the carrying value of its assets may
not be recoverable. The Company determines impairment by comparing the
undiscounted future cash flows estimated to be generated by its assets to
their respective carrying amounts. If impairment is deemed to exist, the
asset will be written down to fair value. During the years ended June 30,
2011, 2010 and 2009, the Company determined that there was no
impairment.
|
|
|
|
Equipment
|
|
|
|
Computer equipment is recorded at cost less accumulated
amortization. Amortization is provided annually on assets placed in use on
a straight-line basis over 3 years.

Research and development
|
|
|
|
All research costs are charged to operations in the year
of expenditure. Development costs are capitalized if they meet the
criteria for capitalization and amortized over the period of the expected
life. Development costs are written off when there is no longer an
expectation of future benefits.
|
|
|
|
Stock-based compensation
|
|
|
|
The Company uses the fair value based method of
accounting for stock options granted to employees and directors and
compensatory warrants issued on private placements in accordance with the
recommendations of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting
Standards Codification (FASB ASC) 718, Compensation Stock
Compensation. Under this method, the fair value of the stock options at
the date of the grant, as determined using the Black-Scholes option
pricing model, is recognized to expense over the vesting period, and the
fair value of compensatory warrants at the date of issuance, as determined
using the Black-Scholes model, is recognized as share issuance costs, with
the offsetting credit to contributed surplus.

|
Recent accounting pronouncements
|
|
|
|
Recent accounting pronouncements that the Company has
adopted or will be required to adopt in the future are summarized
below.
|
|
|
|
In September 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB) issued authoritative guidance regarding
multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. This guidance addresses how to
separate deliverables and how to measure and allocate consideration to one
or more units of accounting. Specifically, the guidance requires that
consideration be allocated among multiple deliverables based on relative
selling prices. The guidance establishes a selling price hierarchy of (1)
vendor-specific objective evidence, (2) third-party evidence and (3)
estimated selling price. This guidance is effective for annual periods
beginning after June 15, 2010 but may be early adopted as of the beginning
of an annual period. The Company adopted the standard and it has no impact
on the financial statements.
|
|
|
|
In January 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-06, Improving
Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements, which amends ASC 820, Fair
Value Measures and Disclosures. ASU 2010-06 requires disclosure of
transfers into and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements, and
also requires more detailed disclosure about the activity within Level 3
fair value measurements. The changes to the ASC as a result of this update
are effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after
December 15, 2009 (adopted July 1, 2010), except for requirements related
to Level 3 disclosures, which are effective for annual and interim
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010 (July 1, 2011 for the
Company). This guidance requires new disclosures only, and had no impact
on the financial statements.
|
|
|
|
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-09,
Subsequent Events (Topic 855). This update provides amendments to
Subtopic 855-10-50-4 and related guidance within U.S. GAAP to clarify that
an SEC registrant is not required to disclose the date through which
subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential
conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SECs requirements. The Company
has adopted this standard and it will have no impact on the financial
statements.

|
|
|
|
In July 2010, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards
Update No. 2010-20, Receivables, Disclosure about the Credit Quality of
Financing Receivables and Allowances for Credit Losses. The standard
requires additional disclosure related to the credit quality of financing
receivables, troubled debt restructurings and significant purchases or
sales of financing receivables during the period. The standard requires
that these disclosures and existing disclosures be presented on a
disaggregated basis, similar to the manner that the entity uses to
evaluate its credit losses. Disclosures of information as of the end of a
reporting period are effective for interim and annual periods ending after
December 15, 2010 and disclosures of activity that occurred during a
reporting period are effective for interim and annual periods beginning
after December 15, 2010. The Company has adopted this standard on July 1,
2010, and it will have no impact on the financial statements for the year
ended June 30, 2011, due to the receivables being short-term in nature and
are therefore not financing receivables.
|
|
|
|
In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-13, Compensation
- Stock Compensation (Topic 718), amending ASC 718. ASU 2010-13 clarifies
that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the
currency of a market in which the entitys equity securities trade should
not be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity. ASU
2010-13 also improves GAAP by improving consistency in financial reporting
by eliminating diversity in practice. ASU 2010-13 is effective for interim
and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010 (July 1,
2011 for the Company). The Company is currently evaluating the impact of
ASU 2010-09, but does not expect its adoption to have a material impact on
the Companys financial reporting and disclosures.
|
|
|
|
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-28When to
Perform Step 2 of the Goodwill Impairment Test for Reporting Units with
Zero or Negative Carrying Amounts. This update provides amendments to
Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 350Intangibles, Goodwill
and Other that requires an entity to perform Step 2 impairment test even
if a reporting unit has zero or negative carrying amount. The first step
is to identify potential impairments by comparing the estimated fair value
of a reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the
carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value, a
second step is performed to measure the amount of impairment, if any. The
second step is to determine the implied fair value of the reporting units
goodwill, measured in the same manner as goodwill is recognized in a
business combination, and compare that amount with the carrying amount of
the goodwill. If the carrying value of the reporting unit goodwill exceeds
the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized
in an amount equal to that excess. ASU No. 2010-28 is effective beginning
January 1, 2011. As a result of this standard, goodwill impairments may be
reported sooner than under current practice. The Company does not expect
ASU No. 2010-28 to have a material impact on the financial
statements.
|
|
|
|
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, which
contains updated accounting guidance to clarify the acquisition date that
should be used for reporting pro forma financial information when
comparative financial statements are issued. This update requires that a
company should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as
though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year
had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting
period only. This update also requires disclosure of the nature and amount
of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments. The provisions of this
update, which are to be applied prospectively, are effective for business
combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning
of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15,
2010, with early adoption permitted. The impact of this update on the
Companys financial statements will depend on the size and nature of
future business combinations.
|
|
|
|
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value
Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value
Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs, which is
intended to improve comparability of fair value measurements presented and
disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial
Reporting

Standards. This standard clarifies the application of
existing fair value measurement requirements including (1) the application
of the highest and best use valuation premise, (2) the methodology to
measure the fair value of an instrument classified in a reporting entitys
shareholders equity, (3) disclosure requirements for quantitative
information on Level 3 fair value measurements and (4) guidance on
measuring the fair value of financial instruments managed within a
portfolio. In addition, the standard requires additional disclosures of
the sensitivity of fair value to changes in unobservable inputs for Level
3 securities. This standard is effective for interim and annual reporting
periods ending on or after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this
guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the Companys
financial statements.
|
|
|
|
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05,
Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which requires that comprehensive
income be presented either in a single continuous statement of
comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. The
standard also requires entities to disclose on the face of the financial
statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified
from other comprehensive income to net earnings. This standard no longer
allows companies to present components of other comprehensive income only
in the statement of equity. This standard is effective for interim and
annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption
of this guidance is not expected to have a significant impact on the
Companys financial statements other than the prescribed change in
presentation.

TECHNOLOGY PURCHASE AGREEMENT
|
|
|
|
On April 15, 2008, the Company entered into a License
agreement (The Agreement) with Canadian Integrated Optics International
Ltd. of Douglas, Isle of Man (CIOI), to manufacture and market CIOIs
patent pending solar technology based on a new approach for the generation
of solar power. On May 7, 2008 the Agreement was subsequently amended and
executed by CIOI and on May 16, 2008 the agreement was executed by the
Company and is subject to certain terms and conditions. The purchase price
paid in cash for the License was $100,000. These costs were later
written-off and charged to operations in fiscal 2008.
|
|
|
|
In December 2009, the Company executed an agreement with
CIOI to purchase technology and associated provisional patents related to
the development of certain solar technology in exchange for 71,500,000
common stock of the Company valued at $1,611,559. The two provisional
patents and the pending patent application have an estimated useful life
of 21 years. The Company has recorded $115,111 in accumulated amortization
as at June 30, 2011.

|
|
|
During fiscal 2011, the Company granted 1,300,000 options
(2010 500,000) to directors, former directors, employees and consultants
of the Company, with a weighted average fair value of $0.73 (2010 - $1.91)
per option, which are being recognized over the vesting periods of the

ITEM 9.
|
CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON
ACCOUNTING AND
FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE.
|
On August 9, 2010, we dismissed Jewett, Schwartz, Wolfe &
Associates (Wolf & Associates), as our independent public accountants. Our
Board of Directors approved the dismissal of Wolf & Associates.
Wolf & Associates reports on our financial statements for
the years ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 did not contain an adverse opinion or
disclaimer of opinion, nor were they modified or qualified as to uncertainty,
audit scope or accounting principles with the exception of a statement regarding
the uncertainty of our ability to continue as a going concern.
There have been no disagreements during the fiscal years ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008 and the subsequent interim period up to and including the
date of dismissal between the Company and Wolf & Associates on any matter of
accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing
scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Wolf &
Associates, would have caused them to make reference to the subject matter of
the disagreement in connection with Wolf & Associates report for the
financial statements for the past year and any subsequent interim period up to
and including to the date of Wolf & Associates dismissal.
We requested in writing that Wolf & Associates provide a
letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or
not they agree with the above disclosures. We received a copy of Wolf &
Associates letter and it was filed as an exhibit to our Current Report on Form
8-K filed with the SEC on August 20, 2010.
On August 9, 2010, we appointed Davidson & Company LLP,
Chartered Accountants, ("Davidson") as our new independent registered public
accounting firm. Our Board of Directors approved the engagement of Davidson. We
elected to change accounting firms because of Davidsons Canadian and U.S.
expertise. In addition, we wanted our accounting firm to be closer to our
operations in British Columbia, Canada.
We did not consult with Davidson during the fiscal years ended
June 30, 2009 and 2008 and any subsequent interim period prior to their
engagement regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific
completed or proposed transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be
rendered on our financial statements, and either a written report was provided
to us or advice was provided that the newly appointed accountant concluded was
an important factor in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or
financial reporting issue; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a
disagreement or a reportable event in response to paragraph (a)(1)(iv) of Item
304 of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended.
ITEM
9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e)
and 15d-15(e)) as of June 30, 2011 (the Evaluation Date). 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 our
disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the Evaluation Date
as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial
reporting discussed below.
Notwithstanding the assessment that our internal control over
financial reporting was not effective and that there were material weaknesses as
identified in this report, we believe that our financial statements contained in
our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011 fairly present
our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in all material
respects.
Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining
adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in
Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, for the Company.
24
Internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that: (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of our assets; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions
are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts
and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of its
management and directors; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding
prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition
of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in
the effectiveness of any system of internal control, and accordingly, even
effective internal control can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to
financial statement preparation and may not prevent or detect material
misstatements. In addition, effective internal control at a point in time may
become ineffective in future periods because of changes in conditions or due to
deterioration in the degree of compliance with our established policies and
procedures.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination
of significant deficiencies, that results in there being a more than remote
likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, management conducted an
evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial
reporting, as of the Evaluation Date, based on the framework set forth in
Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on its evaluation under
this framework, management concluded that our internal control over financial
reporting was not effective as of the Evaluation Date.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal
control over financial reporting as of Evaluation Date and identified the
following material weaknesses:
Inadequate Segregation of Duties
: We have an inadequate
number of personnel to properly implement control procedures.
Insufficient Written Policies & Procedures:
We have
insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial
reporting.
Inadequate Financial Statement Closing Process:
We have
an inadequate financial statement closing process.
Management is committed to improving its internal controls and
will (1) continue to use third party specialists to address shortfalls in
staffing and to assist the Company with accounting and finance responsibilities,
(2) increase the frequency of independent reconciliations of significant
accounts which will mitigate the lack of segregation of duties until there are
sufficient personnel, (3) prepare and implement sufficient written policies and
checklists for financial reporting and closing processes and (4) may consider
appointing outside directors and audit committee members in the future.
Management has discussed the material weaknesses noted above
with our independent registered public accounting firm. Due to the nature of
these material weaknesses, there is a more than remote likelihood that
misstatements which could be material to the annual or interim financial
statements could occur that would not be prevented or detected.
Davidson & Company LLP, our registered independent public accounting firm, audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and issued a report on our internal control over financial reporting which is included under Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data in this Annual Report.
25
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial
reporting that occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2011 that have
materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
Limitations on the effectiveness of controls and procedures
Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and the
Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that the our controls and procedures will
prevent all potential errors or fraud. A control system, no matter how well
conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance
that the objectives of the control system are met.

Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, filed with the SEC on May 17,

including implicit waivers, from a provision of our Code of Ethics to our chief
executive officer, chief financial officer, or certain other finance executives,

to whom it applies in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC.
COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a) OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT

Compensation Discussion and Analysis
We seek to provide a level of compensation for our executive
officers that is competitive with publicly-traded companies similar in both size
and industry. We hope to attract, retain, and reward executive officers who
contribute to our success, to align executive officer compensation with our
performance, and to motivate executive officers to achieve our business
objectives. We compensate our senior management through a mix of base salary,
bonus and equity compensation.
30
Our Board of Directors determines the compensation of our
executive officers. The Board also administers any stock option issuances. The
Board reviews base salary levels for our executive officers at the end of each
fiscal year and recommends raises and bonuses based upon our achievements,
individual performance, and competitive and market conditions. The Board may
delegate certain of its responsibilities, as it deems appropriate, to committees
or to our officers, but it has not elected to do so. The Board has engaged
management consultants to provide a market analysis of cash, equity and short
term incentives for comparisons to our current compensation package and based on
that analysis provide recommendations of compensation adjustments and overall
compensation philosophy to the Board of Directors.
Compensation Committee
We do not have a standing compensation committee. Our entire
Board of Directors participates in the consideration of executive officer and
director compensation. Because of the small size of the Company, we feel it is
prohibitive to develop a formal compensation committee at this time. We have
relied on the fiduciary duties of our Directors in determining what levels of
compensation are in the best interests of the Company.
Employment Agreements
On January 1, 2010 we entered into a CEO employment agreement
with Daryl J. Ehrmantraut (the CEO Employment Agreement). Under the terms of
the agreement, Mr. Ehrmantraut is paid an annual salary of $120,000. In addition
to Mr. Ehrmantrauts base salary, he is eligible to receive a bonus for each
calendar quarter in an amount, if any, as determined by our Board of Directors
at its discretion. Mr. Ehrmantraut received 500,000 options to purchase shares
of our common stock vested quarterly over a three year period commencing on the
execution date of the CEO Employment Agreement. The Option exercise price is
$0.50 and they expire January 13, 2013. Under the terms of the CEO Employment
Agreement, Mr. Ehrmantraut is required to devote the substantial portion of his
entire business time, attention and energy exclusively to the business and
affairs of the Company.
On August 23, 2011, we entered into an employment agreement
with Stella Guo (the Employment Agreement) dated effective September 1, 2011.
Under the terms of the agreement, Ms. Guo is paid an annual salary of $100,000.
Ms. Guo received 1,000,000 options to purchase shares of our common stock vested
quarterly over a three year period commencing on the effective date of the
Employment Agreement. The Option exercise price is $1.00 and they expire August
31, 2014. Under the terms of the Employment Agreement, Ms. Guo is required to
devote the substantial portion of her entire business time, attention and energy
to the business and affairs of the Company.
On August 31, 2011, we entered into an Executive Services
Agreement with Team Solar BV (TSBV) and Steven Pleging (the Executive
Services Agreement) dated for reference August 8, 2011. Under the terms of the
agreement, TSBV shall receive 36,000 EUR during the first three months and
135,000 EUR during the remaining nine months. Subject to certain conditions of
the Executive Services Agreement, TSBV at its option Mr. Pleging could receive
up to 500,000 shares of our common stock and Mr. Pleging could receive options
to purchase 1,500,000 shares of our common stock at a price determined by our
Board of Directors. Mr. Pleging is required to devote a substantial portion of
his entire business time, attention and energy to the business and affairs of
the Company

Under Rule 13d-3, a beneficial owner of a security
includes any person who, directly or indirectly, through any contract,
arrangement, understanding, relationship, or otherwise has or shares: (i)
voting power, which includes the power to vote, or to direct the voting of
shares; and (ii) investment power, which includes the power to dispose or
direct the disposition of shares. Certain shares may be deemed to be
beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share
the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition,
shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has
the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option)
within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In
computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares
outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned
by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition
rights. As a result, the percentage of outstanding shares of any person as
shown in this table does not necessarily reflect the persons actual
ownership or voting power with respect to the number of shares of our
Common Stock actually outstanding on the date of this Annual Report. As at
August 23, 2011, we had 146,987,692, shares of our Common Stock issued and
outstanding.

Mr. Ehrmantraut holds 150,000 shares of our Common Stock

Mr. Ehrmantraut was granted 500,000 stock options under his
employment agreement dated January 1, 2010. These options were granted prior to
the adoption of our 2011 Stock Option Plan.
Subsequent to the year end Stella Guo was granted 1,000,000
stock options with an exercise price of $1.00 per share.
2011 Stock Option Plan
On February 28, 2011, our Board of Directors adopted the 2011
Stock Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan"). The purpose of the 2011 Plan is to
enhance the long-term stockholder value of the Company by offering opportunities
to directors, officers, employees and eligible consultants of the Company
(Participants) to acquire and maintain stock ownership in the Company in order
to give these persons the opportunity to participate in the Company's growth and
success, and to encourage them to remain in the service of the Company.
The 2011 Plan allows the Company to grant options to its
officers, directors and employees. In addition, the Company may grant options to
individuals who act as consultants to the Company, so long as those consultants
do not provide services connected to the offer or sale of the Companys
securities in capital raising transactions and do not directly or indirectly
promote or maintain a market for the Companys securities.
A total of 14,650,000 shares of the Companys common stock are
available for issuance under the Plan.
The Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options and
non-qualified stock options. Incentive stock options granted under the Plan are
those intended to qualify as incentive stock options as defined under
33
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. However, in order to
qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue
Code, the Plan must be approved by the stockholders of the Company within 12
months of its adoption. The Plan has not been approved by the Companys
stockholders. Non-qualified stock options granted under the Plan are option
grants that do not qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the
Internal Revenue Code.
ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS
AND
RELATED
TRANSACTIONS,
AND
DIRECTOR
INDEPENDENCE.
|
None of the following parties has, during the past two fiscal
years, had any material interest, direct or indirect, in any transaction with us
or in any presently proposed transaction that has or will materially affect us,
other than as noted in this section:
|
(i)
|
Any of our directors or executive officers;
|
|
(ii)
|
Any person proposed as a nominee for election as a
director;
|
|
(iii)
|
Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly,
shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to our
outstanding shares of common stock;
|
|
(iv)
|
Any of our promoters; and
|
|
(v)
|
Any member of the immediate family (including spouse,
parents, children, siblings and in-laws) of any of the foregoing
persons.
|
Pursuant to the terms of a takeover bid, under Canadian
Securities Laws, Canadian Integrated Optics (IOM) Ltd. (CIO), our largest
shareholder, has transferred over 99% of its 71,500,000 shares of our common
stock to 47 different shareholders. As a result of the transaction, CIO no
longer holds a significant amount of our common shares.
We still contract with CIO to perform our Research and
Development activities at Simon Fraser University in British Columbia.
Director Independence
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board
inter-dealer quotation system, which does not have director independence
requirements. Under NASDAQ Rule 5605(a)(2), a director is not considered to be
independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the
corporation. All of our directors are considered executive officers under Rule
3b-7 of the Exchange Act. Therefore, none of our directors are independent.
As a result of our limited operating history and minimal
resources, our management believes that it will have difficulty in attracting
independent directors. In addition, we would likely be required to obtain
directors and officers insurance coverage in order to attract and retain
independent directors. Our management believes that the costs associated with
maintaining such insurance is prohibitive at this time.

Policy on Pre-Approval by Audit Committee of Services
Performed by Independent Auditors
The policy of our Audit Committee is to pre-approve all audit
and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditors
during the fiscal year. Non-audit services that are prohibited to be provided by
our independent auditors may not be pre-approved. In addition, prior to the
granting of any pre-approval, our Audit Committee must be satisfied that the
performance of the services in question will not compromise the independence of
the independent auditors.
