Any forward-looking statements represent management's best judgment as to what may occur in the future. However, forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and important factors beyond our control that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from historical results of operations and events and those presently anticipated or projected. We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statement or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

PART II


ITEM 5. MARKET FOR EQUITY SECURITIES AND OTHER SHAREHOLDER MATTERS


MARKET INFORMATION


There is a limited public market for our common shares.  Our common shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol “LTNR”.  Trading in stocks quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board is often thin and is characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices due to many factors that may be unrelated to a company’s operations or business prospects.  We cannot assure you that there will be a market in the future for our common stock.



5





 

OTC Bulletin Board securities are not listed or traded on the floor of an organized national or regional stock exchange.  Instead, OTC Bulletin Board securities transactions are conducted through a telephone and computer network connecting dealers in stocks.  OTC Bulletin Board issuers are traditionally smaller companies that do not meet the financial and other listing requirements of a regional or national stock exchange.

 

As of June 6, 2011, their was no trading of our shares of common stock.


As of the date of this Annual report we had 29 shareholders of record.


DIVIDENDS


We have never paid or declared any dividends on our common stock and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.


SECURITIES AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER EQUITY COMPENSATION PLANS


We currently do not have any equity compensation plans.


ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA


Not Applicable.


ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, including the notes thereto, appearing elsewhere in this annual report. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates  and  beliefs.  Our actual  results  could  differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements.  Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include,  but are not limited to those discussed  below and elsewhere in this Annual Report, particularly in the section entitled "Risk Factors".  Our audited financial statements are stated in United States Dollars  and are  prepared  in  accordance  with  United  States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


We have incurred recurring losses to date. Our financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include adjustments relating to the recoverability and realization of assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue in operation.



6





We expect we will require additional capital to meet our long term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of equity or debt securities.


FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2011 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2010.


Our net loss for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011 was $14,439 compared to a net loss of $208 from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010. During fiscal year ended April 30, 2011, we have generated $14,866 in revenue.


During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011, we incurred expenses of $29,305 compared to $208 incurred from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010.  These expenses incurred during the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011 consisted of: bank charges and interest of $369 (2010:  $34); transfer agent fees of $1,386 (2010:  $-0-); professional fees of $16,655 (2010: $-0-); advertising $-0- (2010: $-0-); and  miscellaneous charges of  $10,895 (2010: $174).


The weighted average number of shares outstanding  are  4,201,781 for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011 compared to 322,580 for the period from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES


FISCAL YEAR ENDED APRIL 30, 2011


As of April 30, 2011, our current assets were $19,584 and our total liabilities were $1,131. As of April 30, 2011, current assets were comprised of $12,395 in cash and $7,189 in prepaid expenses; total liabilities were comprised of $575 in accounts payables and of $556 in advances from a director.


As of April 30, 2011, our total assets were $19,584 comprised entirely of current assets. Stockholders’ equity increased from $3,792 as of April 30, 2010 to $18,453 as of April 30, 2011.  


Cash Flows from Operating Activities


We have not generated positive cash flows from operating activities. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011, net cash flows used in operating activities was ($21,053) consisting  of a net loss of ($14,439) and accounts payables of $575 and prepaid expenses of ($7,189). For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2010, net cash flows used in operating activities was ($208) consisting  of a net loss of ($208). Net cash flows used in operating activities was ($21,261) for the period from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2011.   




7





Cash Flows from Financing Activities


We have financed our operations primarily from either advancements or the issuance of equity and debt instruments. For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011, net cash from financing activities was $29,457, consisting of $357 in advance from director and $29,100 proceeds from sale of common stock. For the period from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010, net cash from financing activities was $4,199. For the period from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2011, net cash provided by financing activities was $33,656 consisting of $33,100 proceeds received from issuances of common stock and $556 in advances from a director.


PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING


We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.


Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flows are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next six months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and debt instruments. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (ii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.


MATERIAL COMMITMENTS


As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any material commitments.


PURCHASE OF SIGNIFICANT EQUIPMENT


We do not intend to purchase any significant equipment during the next twelve months.


OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS


As of the date of this Annual Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

GOING CONCERN


The independent auditors' report accompanying our April 30, 2011 and April 30, 2010 financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements have been prepared "assuming that we will continue as a going concern," which contemplates that we will realize our assets and satisfy our liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders

Loton, Corp.


We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Loton, Corp. (A Development Stage Company) as of April 30, 2011 and 2010, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year ended April 30, 2011, from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010 and from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2011. Loton, 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over the financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Loton, Corp (A Development Stage Company) as of April 30, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended April 30, 2011, from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010 and from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, which raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

LOTON, CORP

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(AUDITED)


NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS


Loton, Corp was founded in the State of Nevada on December 28, 2009. We are a Montreal-based 3D studio and intend to provide 3D rendering, animation and architectural visualization services to architects, builders, advertising agencies, interior designers, home renovators, home owners and various sectors which have need of 3D visualization in North America. The Company is in the development stage as defined under Statement on Financial Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 915-205 "Development-Stage Entities.”  Since inception through April 30, 2011, the Company has generated $14,866 in revenue and has accumulated losses of $14,647.



NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES


Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.


Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.  The Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $14,647 as of April 30, 2011 and further losses are anticipated in the development of its business raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or to obtain the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. Management intends to finance operating costs over the next twelve months with existing cash on hand and loans from directors and/or private placement of common stock.  These financials do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classifications of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.


Cash and Cash equivalents

For purposes of Statement of Cash Flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity date of three months or less to be cash equivalents.


Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with 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 period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

LOTON, CORP

(A DEVELOPMENT STAGE COMPANY)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(AUDITED)


NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying value of cash and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximates their fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments.  Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.


Income Taxes

The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying values and their respective income tax basis (temporary differences).  The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.


Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

The Company computes loss per share in accordance with “FASB ASC-260”, “Earnings per Share” which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of outstanding common shares during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period.  Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.


The Company has no potential dilutive instruments and accordingly basic loss and diluted loss per share are the same.


Research and Development

The Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC-730”), “Research and Development”. Under ASC-730, all research and development costs must be charged to expense as incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed as incurred.  Third-party research and development costs are expensed when the contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved. Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and future products are expensed in the period incurred. The Company incurred expenditures $0 from the period from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2011.


Revenue Recognition

The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification No. 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC-605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)


The Company will defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.  


Advertising

The Company follows the policy of charging the costs of advertising to expenses incurred. The Company incurred $0 in advertising costs during the period from Inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2011.


Income Taxes

Income taxes are accounted for under the assets and liability method.  Deferred  tax  assets  and  liabilities are recognized for  the  estimated future tax consequences attributable  to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing  assets  and  liabilities and their respective  tax  bases and operating loss and tax credit  carry  forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates  in effect for the year in which  those  temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.


Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company records stock based compensation in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 718 which requires the Company to recognize expenses related to the fair value of its employee stock option awards. This eliminates accounting for share-based compensation transactions using the intrinsic value and requires

instead that such transactions be accounted for using a fair-value-based method. The Company recognizes the cost of all share-based awards on a graded vesting basis over the vesting period of the award.


Concentrations

For the year ended April 30, 2011 and 2010, two customers accounted for 100% of sales.  


NOTE 3 - COMMON STOCK


The authorized capital of the Company is 75,000,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001 per share.


On April 21, 2010, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share, to its sole Director, for total cash proceeds of $4,000.


In January 2011, the Company issued 430,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.03 per share for total cash proceeds of $12,900.


In February and March, 2011  the Company issued 540,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.03  per share for total cash proceeds of $16,200.


Since inception (December 28, 2009), the Company sold a total of 4,970,000 shares of common stock for total cash proceeds of $33,100.

NOTE 4 –RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS


On April 21, 2010, the Company issued 4,000,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.001 per share, to its sole Director, for total cash proceeds of $4,000.


The Director loaned $556 to the Company.  The amount is due on demand, non-interest bearing and unsecured.   


NOTE 5 –INCOME TAXES


For the year  ended  April  30,  2011 and from inception (December 28, 2009) to April 30, 2010,  the  Company  incurred  net operating  losses  and,  accordingly,  no  provision  for income  taxes has been recorded.  In addition, no benefit for income taxes has been recorded due to the uncertainty of the realization of any tax assets. At April 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company had  approximately  $14,647  and  $208 of federal and state net operating losses. The net operating loss carryforwards,  if not utilized,  will begin to expire  in 2030.  The  provision  for  income  taxes  consisted  of the following components for the periods ended April 30:



Components of net deferred tax assets,  including a valuation allowance,  are as follows for the periods ended April 30:

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of April 30, 2011 and 2010 was $5,126 and  $73,  respectively.  In  assessing  the recovery of the deferred  tax assets,  management  considers  whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the  deferred  tax assets will not be realized.  The ultimate  realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible.  Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax liabilities, projected  future taxable income,  and tax planning  strategies in making this assessment.  As a result, management  determined it was more likely than not the  deferred  tax assets would not be realized as of April 30, 2011 and 2010, and recorded a full valuation allowance.

ITEM 9A(T). CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Company management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, have evaluated our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-K. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that the information we are required to disclose in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including cost limitations, the possibility of human error, judgments and assumptions regarding the likelihood of future events, and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.  Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.



19





CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING


There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or 15d-15 promulgated under the Exchange Act that occurred during the last fiscal quarter of the fiscal year ended April 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.  Management is aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties at our company due to the limited number of employees dealing with general administrative and financial matters.  At this time management believes that, given the individuals involved and the control procedures in place, the risks associated with such lack of segregation are insignificant, and that the potential benefits of adding additional employees to segregate duties more clearly do not justify the associated added expense.  Management will continue to evaluate this segregation of duties.  In addition, management is aware that many of our currently existing internal controls are undocumented.  Our management will be working to document such internal controls over the coming year.
