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, 2017.

 

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 AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation— The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Solar Quartz Technologies Corporation and its subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") and pursuant to the accounting and disclosure rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements follows.

 

Use of Estimates -The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Significant estimates include but are not limited to the estimate of percentage of completion on construction contracts in progress at each reporting period which we rely on as a primary basis of revenue recognition, estimated useful lives of equipment for purposes of depreciation and the valuation of common shares issued for services, equipment and the liquidation of liabilities.

 

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation using the fair value method. The fair value attributable to stock options is calculated based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model and is amortized to expense over the service period which is equivalent to the time required to vest the stock options.

Table of Contents

  

Earnings Per Share - Basic earnings 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 shares.

 

Reclassifications - Certain amounts previously presented for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on net loss, working capital or equity previously reported.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements - Various accounting standards updates have been recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or were applicable to specific industries. Recently accounting pronouncements have been issued that are likely to have a material impact to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. These include accounting standards as they apply to leases. The Company will treat its development of mineral rights under standards for operating leases commonly applied in mineral extraction industries.

 

NOTE 3 – CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE

 

The Company’s indebtedness as of March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2017 were as follows:

NOTE 4 –  RELATED PARTY

 

In the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 we reported $418,755 due to affiliated parties that was an obligation on the books of Solar Quartz Technologies Limited upon its acquisition. That amount on March 31, 2018 was $439,448, represented by an increase on the books of Solar Quartz Technologies Limited (SQTL) to its affiliate, Australian Oil and Gas Holdings, Inc. (AOGH) the owner of nearly 95% of the shares of the Company and the CEO of Solar Quartz Technologies. Receivables from AOGH reported in the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 was $26,890, increasing to $28,671 at March 31, 2018. The offsetting amounts of the receivables were payables of $410,777 and $391,865 at March 31, 2018 and September 30, 2017 respectively.

 

NOTE 5 – STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

 

1,616,667 common shares were issued for $160,803 in cash during the six months ended March 31, 2018, resulting in an increase to Common Stock of $16 and Additional Paid-in Capital of $160,787.

 

8,200,000 shares of common stock were issued for services provided by members of board of directors and associated parties; which resulted in an increase of Common Stock of $82 and Additional Paid-in Capital of $1,286,166.

 

208,252 shares of common stock were issued to Vanguard shareholders who held all of the shares of the company prior to the acquisition in July 2017 of Solar Quartz Technologies Limited in order to adjust their respective holdings to reflect the terms of the acquisition agreement. This resulted in an increase in common stock of $2 and a reduction in Additional Paid-in Capital of $2.

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

 

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the related notes, and other financial information included in this Form 10-Q.

 

Our Management's Discussion and Analysis contains not only statements that are historical facts, but also statements that are forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are, by their very nature, uncertain and risky. Although the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report reflect the good faith judgment of our management, such statements can only be based on facts and factors currently known by them. Consequently, and because forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, the actual results and outcomes may differ materially from the results and outcomes discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are urged to carefully review and consider the various disclosures made by us in this report as we attempt to advise interested parties of the risks and factors that may affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations and prospects.

 

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The information contained in this Form 10-Q contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including among other things, statements regarding our capital needs, business strategy and expectations. Any statement which does not contain a historical fact may be deemed to be a forward-looking statement. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as "may", "will", "should", "expect", "plan", "intend", "anticipate", "believe", "estimate", "predict", "potential" or "continue", the negative of such terms or other comparable terminology. In evaluating forward looking statements, you should consider various factors outlined in our Form 10-K report for the year ended September 30, 2017, filed with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, from time to time, in other reports we file with the SEC. These factors may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statement. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update these statements or disclose any difference between our actual results and those reflected in these statements.

 

Overview

 

In July 2017 we acquired Solar Quartz Technologies Limited, a New Zealand corporation, as described in Note 1 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 March 31, 2018, 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.

 

Current Business and Operations

 

With the acquisition of Solar Quartz Technologies Limited we now own mining exploration and development rights to significant deposits of High Purity Quartz that we have determined in our evaluation of independent reports and considered judgment to have an aggregate market value of $530,000,000. The reserves are adequate to provide the Company with adequate resources for 25-30 years of production. See Item 1 Business for greater details.

Table of Contents

 

We are currently actively seeking interim working capital in order to complete mining plans and build a pre-processing plant in Townsville, North Queensland, Australia, build upon our already significant management team and market HPQ and HPQS to established markets with whom our management team have had prior relationships. These organizational efforts will also include securing significant new capital for the acquisition of a site and the building of the pre-processing plant. Upon completion, that plant will enable the Company to upgrade its newly mined HPQS to a higher level of purity (HPQS) that has a significant world-wide demand for use in the production of advanced PV solar Panels and all high-end electronics, lighting, telecom, optic and microelectronics. Failure to secure these financings will have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018 we generated no revenues, and thus no cost of sales or gross profits.

 

For the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2017 and March 31, 2018, we incurred $4,014 and $1,439,606 respectively in operating expenses. The operating expense increases are due to the acquisition of Solar Quartz Technologies Limited, which had much more administrative activity in the current fiscal year, primarily in the form of professional services and other general and administrative expenses. These expenses were especially high in the current period due to the one-time issuance of common shares to members of management, the board of directors and advisors for services over the past 6 months, representing fair value totaling $1,286,256.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure 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 March 31, 2018, 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 March 31, 2018 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 March 31, 2018. 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.
