SOLAR QUARTZ TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

These consolidated financial statements of Solar Quartz Technologies Corporation (Solar Quartz or the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. Certain information, accounting policies and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been omitted pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read along with Solar Quartz’s audited financial statements as of September 30, 2016.

 

Going Concern – The Company has incurred cumulative net losses since its inception and will require capital for future operating activities to take place. The Company's ability to raise new funds through the future issuances of debt or common stock is unknown. The obtainment of additional financing, the successful development of a plan of operations, and its transition, ultimately, to the attainment of profitable operations are necessary for the Company to continue operations. The ability to successfully resolve these factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Future issuances of the Company's equity or debt securities will be required in order for the Company to finance operations and continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that may result from the outcome of these aforementioned uncertainties.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

As of December 31, 2016, Solar Quartz’s significant accounting policies were consistent with those discussed in the audited financial statements as of September 30, 2016.

 

Earnings (Loss) Per ShareBasic earnings (loss) per share have been calculated based upon the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share have been calculated based upon the weighted-average number of common and potential common shares. The calculation of diluted weighted-average shares outstanding for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 excludes 62,974 and 79,474 shares, respectively, issuable pursuant to outstanding warrants, stock options and debt conversion features because their effect is anti-dilutive.

SOLAR QUARTZ TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 3 – SUBSEQUENT EVENT

 

On July 1, 2017 the company acquired all of the shares of Solar Quartz Technologies Limited, a company incorporated in New Zealand (“SQTNZ”). These shares were purchased from Solar Quartz Technologies, Inc. (“SQTI”). The agreed value of that company’s assets is US$530 million. We subsequently changed our name from Vanguard Energy Corporation to Solar Quartz Technologies Corporation in Colorado and with FINRA, and have also been cleared by FINRA to use the new trading symbol SQTX. In July 2017 the Company issued 213,402,755 new shares of common stock to SQTI in exchange for 122 (100%) of the common shares of SQTNZ. The issuance of these shares was equivalent to 95% of the Company's shares issued, after we issue an additional 10,021,340 shares of common stock to those holders of our common stock immediately prior to the acquisition. The Company does not anticipate any further reorganization of its common stock. We are currently preparing filing all necessary reports to the SEC with audited financial statements to resume our status as fully reporting with the SEC, and subsequently apply to trade on the more senior OTCQX exchange or NASDAQ.

 

SQTNZ is a corporation that has no prior business activity other than being the title owner of the exclusive mining and development rights for two High Purity Quartz (HPQ) Silica deposits known as Quartz Hill (represented by leases ML 30235, ML 30236 and ML 30237) and White Springs (represented by leases ML 30238 and ML 30239) located in North Queensland, Australia. Together they contain deposits in excess of 15 million tons of 99% pure High Purity Quartz which is feedstock in high demand in the marketplace to be used in the production of High Purity Quartz Sand (HPQS) based on independent professional reports.

 

HPQS is an essential primary material for the manufacture of: Photo-Voltaic (PV) solar panels; Semiconductors; all High-end Electronic products; Fiber Optical cables; Halogen Lamps; HD and LCD television screens; and Epoxy Mounding Compounds (EMC).

 

NOTE 4 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

At December 31, 2016, convertible notes totaling $70,747 remained outstanding together with accrued interest of $38,696.

 

NOTE 5 – INCOME TAXES

 

The Company estimates its annual effective income tax rate in recording its quarterly provision for income taxes in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Statutory tax rate changes and other significant or unusual items are recognized as discrete items in the quarter in which they occur. The Company recorded no income tax expense for the three-month period ended December 31, 2016 because the Company estimates it will record no income tax expense for the tax year ending September 30, 2017. The Company has a valuation allowance that fully offsets net deferred tax assets.

 

NOTE 6 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

 

Preferred Stock— In July 2017 the Company increased its authorized preferred stock from 5,000,000 to 10,000,000 shares authorized none issued or outstanding.

 

Common Stock—In July 2017 the Company increased its authorized common shares from an aggregate of 100,000,000 shares to an aggregate of 500,000,000 shares of common stock with $0.00001 par value.

 

Treasury Stock— There were 14,355 shares previously accounted for as treasury charged to income as a cancellation of treasury shares for the year ended September 30, 2015.

 

Common shares of 866,350 and 23,025 were issued in conjunction with the settlement of debt during the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, resulting in increases to common stock of $866 and $23, respectively and additional paid-in capital of $796,702 and $0, respectively.

 

NOTE 7 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

 

On January 10, 2011, the Board of Directors approved a Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan (the "Plan") which authorizes the issuance of up to 1,500,000 shares of Company common stock to persons that exercise options granted pursuant to the Plan. The Company's employees, directors, officers, consultants and advisors are eligible to be granted options pursuant to the Plan, provided however, that bona fide services must be rendered by such consultants or advisors, and such services must not be in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction. As of December 31, 2016, no options were outstanding.

 

NOTE 8 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

Office Lease – The Company leases a virtual office lease in The Woodlands, Texas until June 30, 2019 at $197 per month.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND PLAN OF OPERATION

 

In July 2017 we acquired Solar Quartz Technologies Limited, a New Zealand corporation, as described in Note 3 to the Financial Statements above. We are now seeking new financings to meet development and general operating obligations and to justify a market for our stock. Absent achieving such a transaction in the near future, our viability is in doubt. As of September 30, 2017, the Company has not been successful in meeting this goal; however, work is underway to secure such financing and we believe that such financing of the Company is possible in the near future.

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

(a) We maintain a system of controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the 1934 Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive and Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As of December 31, 2016, our Chief Executive and Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive and Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Warren Dillard, our Chief Executive and Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2017 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, or the COSO Framework (1992). Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls.

 

Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2016. Material weaknesses are inherent when we are unable to file current and periodic reports with the SEC as required by regulation. This limitation resulted from a general lack of financial support and resources in accounting and financial reporting systems to enable us to provide accurate reports on a timely basis

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Management is in the process of addressing the underlying causes for our weaknesses in internal control. We plan to raise both debt and equity capital in the near future and to use those resources to engage outside consultants to assist with the processing of date and drafting financial reports on a timely basis in future reporting periods.
