Development
Stage Company
|
Peak
Resources Incorporated (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada
on September 30, 2005. On August 18, 2008, the Company changed its name to Mine
Clearing Corp. The Company is a Development Stage Company, as defined by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No.7 “Accounting and Reporting for
Development Stage Enterprises”. The Company’s former principal business
was the acquisition and exploration of mineral resource properties. During the
fourth quarter of 2008, the Company changed its principal business and entered
into licensing agreements for the rights to certain intellectual properties in
the landmine scanning, detection, mapping and removal services. Refer to Note
5.
These
financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies
the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in
the normal course of business. The Company has never generated revenues since
inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or
generate earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of
the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support
from its shareholders, the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity
financing to continue operations, and the attainment of profitable operations.
As at November 30, 2008, the Company has accumulated losses of $419,466 since
inception. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability
to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any
adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts
and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.
2. Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
a)
|
Basis
of Presentation
|
These
financial statements and related notes are presented in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and are expressed
in US dollars. The Company’s fiscal year-end is August 31.
|
b)
|
Interim
Financial Statements
|
The
interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) Form 10-Q. They do not include all the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. Therefore, these interim unaudited financial statements
should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited financial statements
and notes thereto for the year ended August 31, 2008, included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 2, 2008 with the SEC.
The
financial statements included herein are unaudited; however, they contain all
normal recurring accruals and adjustments that, in the opinion of management,
are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position at November 30,
2008, and the consolidated results of its operations and consolidated cash flows
for the three months ended November 30, 2008 and November 30, 2007. The results
of operations for the three months ended November 30, 2008 are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for future quarters or the full year
ending August 31, 2009.
|
c)
|
Use
of Estimates
|
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with US generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The
Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to donated
services and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases
its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and
various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances,
the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying
values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are
not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the
Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the
extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual
results, future results of operations will be affected.

|
Basic
and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per
Share
|
The
Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128,
"Earnings per Share".
SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share
(EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net
income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted
EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the
period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the
if-converted method. In computing Diluted EPS, the average stock price for the
period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from
the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive
potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive.
|
e)
|
Comprehensive
Loss
|
SFAS No.
130, “Reporting Comprehensive
Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of
comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at
November 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company has no items that represent a
comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive
loss in the financial statements.
|
f)
|
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
|
The
Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or
less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
|
g)
|
Research
and Development Costs
|
Pursuant
to FAS 2 “Accounting for
Research and Development Costs” the Company expenses all research and
development costs as incurred.
|
h)
|
Mineral
Property Costs
|
The
Company has been in the development stage since its inception on September 30,
2005 and has not yet realized any revenues from its planned operations. The
Company was formerly engaged in the acquisition and development of mining
properties. Mineral property development costs are expensed as incurred. Mineral
property acquisition costs are initially capitalized when incurred using the
guidance in EITF 04-02, “Whether Mineral Rights Are Tangible
or Intangible Assets”. The Company assesses the carrying costs for
impairment under SFAS 144, “Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal of Long Lived Assets” at each fiscal quarter end. When it has
been determined that a mineral property can be economically developed as a
result of establishing proven and probable reserves, the costs then incurred to
develop such property, are capitalized. Such costs will be amortized using the
units-of-production method over the estimated life of the probable reserve. If
mineral properties are subsequently abandoned or impaired, any capitalized costs
will be charged to operations.
|
i)
|
Property
and Equipment
|
Property
and equipment is recorded at cost and is amortized on a straight-line basis over
5 years.
|
j)
|
Long-Lived
Assets
|
In
accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, the Company tests long-lived assets or
asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate
that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could
trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the
market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate
or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount
originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current
period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a
forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current
expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed
significantly before the end of its estimated useful life.
Recoverability
is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value which
is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected
to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as
specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when
the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

|
Financial
Instruments
|
The fair
value of financial instruments, which include cash, accounts payable, accrued
liabilities and due to related party, were estimated to approximate their
carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturities of these financial
instruments. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian
dollars. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise
from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of
these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to
reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
|
l)
|
Discontinued
Operations
|
Certain
amounts have been reclassified to present the Company’s discontinuance of its
mineral exploration operations, as discontinued operations. Unless otherwise
indicated, information presented in the notes to the financial statements
relates only to the Company’s continuing operations. Information relating to
discontinued operations is included in Note 8.
|
m)
|
Income
Taxes
|
The
Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 “Accounting for Income Taxes”
as of its inception. Pursuant to SFAS No. 109 the Company is required to compute
tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefits
of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is
more likely than not. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been
recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured
it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried
forward in future years.
|
n)
|
Foreign
Currency Translation
|
The
Company’s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar.
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated
in accordance with SFAS No. 52 “Foreign Currency
Translation”, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet
date. Gains and losses arising on settlement of foreign currency denominated
transactions or balances are included in the determination of income. Foreign
currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The Company
has not, to the date of these financials statements, entered into derivative
instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

|
Recent
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
|
In May
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 163,
“Accounting for Financial
Guarantee Insurance Contracts – An interpretation of FASB Statement No.
60”. SFAS 163 requires that an insurance enterprise recognize
a claim liability prior to an event of default when there is evidence that
credit deterioration has occurred in an insured financial obligation. It also
clarifies how Statement 60 applies to financial guarantee insurance contracts,
including the recognition and measurement to be used to account for premium
revenue and claim liabilities, and requires expanded disclosures about financial
guarantee insurance contracts. It is effective for financial statements issued
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, except for some disclosures
about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. SFAS 163 requires
that disclosures about the risk-management activities of the insurance
enterprise be effective for the first period beginning after issuance. Except
for those disclosures, earlier application is not permitted. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company’s financial statements.
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles”. SFAS 162 identifies the sources of accounting
principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States. It is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval
of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411,
“The Meaning of Present Fairly
in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles”. The
adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company’s financial statements.

of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Recently
Issued Accounting Pronouncements
(continued)
|
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB Statement No.
133”. SFAS No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for
derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures
to enable investors to better understand their effects on an entity's financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to
provide enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for under Statement 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008,
with early adoption encouraged. The adoption of this statement is not
expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial
statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements Liabilities –an Amendment of ARB No.
51”. This statement amends ARB 51 to establish accounting and
reporting standards for the Noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the
deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is effective for fiscal years,
and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December
15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not
expected to have a material effect on the Company's Company's financial
statements.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business
Combinations”. This statement replaces SFAS 141 and defines
the acquirer in a business combination as the entity that obtains control of one
or more businesses in a business combination and establishes the acquisition
date as the date that the acquirer achieves control. SFAS 141R requires an
acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any
noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at
their fair values as of that date. SFAS 141R also requires the acquirer to
recognize contingent consideration at the acquisition date, measured at its fair
value at that date. This statement is effective for fiscal years, and interim
periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
Earlier adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not expected
to have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities – Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No.
115”. This statement permits entities to choose to measure
many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of the
provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value
option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities” applies to all entities with
available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the
beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that begins after November 15, 2007.
Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of a fiscal year that begins on
or before November 15, 2007, provided the entity also elects to apply the
provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. The
objective of SFAS 157 is to increase consistency and comparability in fair value
measurements and to expand disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157
defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in
generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair
value measurements. SFAS 157 applies under other accounting pronouncements that
require or permit fair value measurements and does not require any new fair
value measurements. The provisions of SFAS No. 157 are effective for fair value
measurements made in fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The
adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the Company's
financial statements.

Overview
Mine
Clearing Corp. (“MCC”) is developing an advanced technology solution to
locating, mapping and removing landmines. Our solution is based on two patented
sensors that will be further developed by our technology provider, Roke Manor
Research Ltd. (“Roke”), for our specific demining solution. The resulting
technology product will be an integrated stand-alone scanning, locating and
mapping system that will utilize Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, GPS mapping software
and specialized training of resident personnel of client countries. MCC expects
that the system will be substantially faster, more efficient and safer than
existing approaches to the dangerous process of landmine detection and
removal.
Roke, a
subsidiary of Siemens AG, are our strategic technology providers and the sensor
technology we have licensed from Roke represents the foundation of our
technology solution. Roke is owned by Siemens and based in Romsey,
Hampshire, UK is an innovative solutions provider and contract R&D
specialist. They have pioneered developments in electronic sensors, networks and
communications technology, providing products and services to Siemens
businesses, government departments, and commercial customers. (Roke employs
approximately 475 people. Orders for the financial year ending 30 September 2007
were £44.85m and turnover for the same period was £42.55 million.)

MCC has
licensed two proprietary sensors for the exclusive use of landmine detection
from Roke via two licensing agreements entered into on August 7, 2008. The
sensor technology will be further developed by Roke through a Development and
Consultancy Support Services Agreement (“Services Agreement”) entered into on
August 7, 2008.
Plan
of Operation
MCC
intends to complete a number of key objectives over the course of the next 12 –
18 months that will result in achieving its goal of becoming a highly profitable
technology and service company in the landmine detection and removal
sector.
The most
important objectives to achieve are the following:
·
|
In
accordance with the global nature of its business, we are targeting
multiple stock exchange listings including a more senior exchange listing
in either Europe or the UK.
|
·
|
Complete
a financing of $5 million to meet our development and commercialization
funding needs for the next 12 months. This includes approximately $1.5
million for technology product development, approximately $1.4 million for
general and administration (including business development) and
approximately $1.5 million in capital costs to deploy our first commercial
unit
|
·
|
Develop
a working model stand alone system that will conduct high level scans and
low level detection of landmines on a variety of landmine contamination
terrains. A series of demonstrations to key decision makers and centers of
influence will be carried out as soon as the prototype systems are
available.
|
·
|
Develop
and market a business model that is based on complex technology but that
delivers direct and significant benefits. Our complex system will scan,
detect, and map the location of buried landmines. Retired military
personnel and civilians, including mine survivors, will provide the bulk
of our human resource needs. Our commitment to our clients will even go as
far as the establishment of product assembly sites, Centers of Excellence
and regional training centers.
|
·
|
Achieve
certification with the United Nations for mine
removal.
|
·
|
Secure
letters of intent, followed by firm contracts with both nation states and
private companies seeking to de-contaminate targeted parcels of
land.
|
·
|
Build
a global organization that can implement an aggressive business model that
will gain the confidence and business of nation states that will benefit
from both a humanitarian and economic development perspective by employing

MCC’s
technology is complex but our development model is not. We intend on building
the best in class solution to the global demining problem. We will market our
solution to nation states that will benefit from mine removal and economic
development benefits inherent in adopting our system.
The
management of MCC has direct experience in developing and growing technology
based companies. We understand that the primary success factor in a thriving
technology venture is delivering a product that meets or, better yet, exceeds
the needs of the client. In our case, this means developing a landmine removal
system/service that is faster, less expensive and safer than existing methods.
We have confidence in our team and in Roke Manor’s patented sensors to meet this
objective.
We also
understand that while the resulting technology is critical, building a better
mousetrap isn’t the only key to success. We have to develop the contacts and
relationships to ensure we can market our systems successfully. To that end we
have generated solid expressions of interest. Potential clients are numerous and
everyone we have communicated with is keenly interested in our proposed product
offering. We have only scratched the surface in terms of business development
and intend to do more over the coming year as we lead to our phased product
demonstrations.
Initially
our marketing efforts will demonstrate that the sensors can scan for and detect
buried landmines. The next demonstrations will show potential clients an
integrated system with scanning, detecting and mapping features. Finally, we
will integrate it all onto an airborne delivery system that will quickly scan
terrain and deliver less expensive, faster and safer land mine removal. These
successive steps will lead to formal commitments and to contracts for work
programs. This is the core of the market development plan.
As we
work with Roke we will continue to forge new relationships that will turn into
solid business relationships in the future. We have been making progress in that
regard and we are convinced there is a huge unmet need for a product/service
that offers the benefits we are developing.
As a new
venture, we are constantly learning more about the dynamics of the market. These
dynamics have convinced us that while it is important to balance our efforts, we
are more convinced than ever that our focus of ensuring the technology
development is of the highest priority is the correct approach. We are confident
that we will continue to make progress in developing an application that will
make the purchase decision easy and at the same time prepare the market for our
launch.

parts. The maximum royalty limit the Company shall be required to pay is
£250,000 GBP (US$486,000) over a ten year period commencing upon completion of
the Services Agreement.
Funding
for the obligations to Roke Manor Research to complete the research and
development program and pay the upfront licensing fees will financed through
sales of MCC’s common stock. There are no assurances that MCC will be able to
achieve further sales of its common stock or any other form of additional
financing. If MCC is unable to achieve the financing necessary to
continue its plan of operations, then MCC will not be able to execute its
business plan of developing a demining technology solution and its business will
fail.
Management
intends to raise the balance of MCC’s cash requirements of $4.3 million for the
next 12 months from private placements, shareholder loans or possibly a
registered public offering (either self-underwritten or through a broker-dealer)
within the next few months. If MCC is unsuccessful in raising enough
money through future capital raising efforts, MCC may review other financing
possibilities such as bank loans. At this time MCC does not have any
commitments from any broker-dealer to provide MCC with financing.
Net
Cash Used in Operating Activities
For the
three month period ended November 30, 2008, net cash used in operating
activities totalled $ 205,723 compared with $4,822 for the previous fiscal
year.
As at
November 30, 2008, MCC had a cash balance of $63,902 and had working capital of
$6,169. During the fiscal three month period ended November 30, 2008,
MCC used $205,723 in cash for operating activities. This was
primarily a result of an operating loss of $227,971, offset by non-cash items
for amortization of $246, and a net increase in accounts payable and accrued
liabilities of $26,198. During the three month period
ended November 30, 2008, MCC paid $nil towards accounts
payable. There were also changes in prepaid expenses and due to
related parties resulting in a net use of cash of $4,196.

ended November 30, 2008 as compared with $(5,218) of cash used for the
previous year.
MCC used
net cash of $0 in investing activities during the three month period
ended November 30, 2008. For the three month period
ended November 30, 2008, MCC’s monthly cash requirement was approximately
$68,585 in operating activities and approximately $0 in investing
activities. Management anticipates that after January 2009 if MCC
intends to execute its business plan its monthly expenses will increase to

(including business development). This includes an average of $43,000 for human
resources and staffing, an average of $127,000 for research and development,
$30,000 for business development including travel costs, and $33,000 for public
company, legal, accounting, marketing and office costs. During the

Item 4. Controls and
Procedures.
Internal Controls over
Financial Reporting
Our
management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting. Under the supervision of our Chief Executive
Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our
internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2008 using the
criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the
Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO).
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 Company’s annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In its
assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as
of November 30, 2008, the Company determined that there were control
deficiencies that constituted material weaknesses, as described
below.
|
1.
|
Certain
entity level controls establishing a “tone at the top” were considered
material weaknesses. The Company has no audit committee. There is no
policy on fraud and no code of ethics at this time. A whistleblower policy
is not necessary given the small size of the
organization.
|
2.
|
Due
to the significant number and magnitude of out-of-period adjustments
identified during the year-end closing process, management has concluded
that the controls over the period-end financial reporting process were not
operating effectively. A material weakness in the period-end financial
reporting process could result in us not being able to meet our
regulatory filing deadlines and, if not remediated, has the potential to
cause a material misstatement or to miss a filing deadline in the future.
Management override of existing controls is possible given the small size
of the organization and lack of personnel.
|
|
3.
|
There
is no system in place to review and monitor internal control over
financial reporting. The Company maintains an insufficient complement of
personnel to carry out ongoing monitoring responsibilities and ensure
effective internal control over financial
reporting.

Management
is currently evaluating remediation plans for the above control
deficiencies.
Accordingly,
the Company concluded that these control deficiencies resulted in a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial
statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company’s
internal controls.
