TABLE OF CONTENTS
BUSINESS
OF REG TECHNOLOGIES INC.
Reg
Technologies Inc. (“Reg Tech” or “the Company”) is a development stage company engaged in the business
of developing and building an improved axial vane-type rotary engine known as the RadMax® rotary technology (the “Technology”
or the “Rand Cam Engine”), used in the design of lightweight and high efficiency engines, compressors and pumps. Since
no marketable product has yet been developed, we have not received any revenues from operations.
Our
ongoing operation is dependent upon cash flow from successful operations and equity financing. We have incurred a loss of $994,230
in the year ended April 30, 2015 (2014 -$297,653; 2013 -$696,758). These consolidated financial statements do not include adjustments
that would be necessary should it be determined that we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
FINANCIAL
AND OTHER INFORMATION
In
this Annual Report, unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian Dollars (“CDN$” or “$”).
The Government of Canada permits a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian Dollar against the U.S. Dollar
(“US$”).
FOREIGN
PRIVATE ISSUER STATUS
We
are a Canadian corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. Less than 50% of our common stock
is held by United States citizens and residents; our business is administered principally outside the United States; and more
than 50% of its assets are located outside the United States. As a result, we believe that we qualify as a “foreign private
issuer” for continuing to report regarding the registration of the common stock using this Form 20-F annual report format.
FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
Certain
statements in this document constitute “forward-looking statements”. Some, but not all, forward-looking statements
can be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “plan,” “estimate,”
“expect,” and “intend,” statements that an action or event “may,” “might,” “could,”
“should,” or “will” be taken or occur, or other similar expressions. Although we have attempted to identify
important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results, such forward-looking statements
involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements,
or other future events, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by
such forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following risks: the risks associated with outstanding
litigation, if any, risks associated with project development; the need for additional financing; operational risks; uncertainties
and risks related to carrying on business in foreign countries; reliance on key personnel; the potential for conflicts of interest
among certain officers, directors or promoters with certain other projects; the absence of dividends; currency fluctuations; competition;
dilution; the volatility of our common share price and volume; and tax consequences to U.S. Shareholders. All forward-looking
statements speak only as of the date on which they are made. We do not intend to update the forward-looking information to reflect
actual results or changes in the factors affecting such forward-looking information. We advise you to carefully review the reports
and documents we file from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), particularly our
Annual Reports on Form 20-F and our Current Reports on Form 6-K.

SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
The
summary consolidated financial information set forth below should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety
by reference to, our consolidated financial statements, as of and for the years ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, together with the
notes thereto, which appear elsewhere in this annual report. The consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended
April 30, 2015 and April 30, 2014 have been audited by A Chan & Company LLP, Chartered Accountants. The consolidated financial
statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).
The
information in the following table is derived from our financial statements and is expressed in Canadian dollars. Since June 1,
1970, the Government of Canada has permitted a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar as compared
to the United States dollar. At April 30, 2015, US$1.00 was equal to approximately C$1.202. The exchange rates for the past five
fiscal years ended April 30, are presented below.
The
following represents our selected financial data for each of the past five fiscal years, ending on April 30. The data presented
is prepared in accordance with IFRS for 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015.

RISK FACTORS
The
occurrence of any of the following risks could hurt our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case,
the trading price of our shares could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider
the following risks and the other information in this Report and our other filings with the SEC before you decide to invest in
us or to maintain or increase your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional
risks and uncertainties not now known to us or that we think are immaterial may also adversely impact and impair our business.
If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, or financial condition would likely suffer.
In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
RISK
FACTORS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
We
are a development stage enterprise.
We
are a development stage enterprise and are subject to all of the attendant business risks associated with a development stage
enterprise, including constraints on financial and personnel resources, lack of established credit facilities, and uncertainties
regarding product development and future revenues. We will continue to be subject to all the risks attendant to a development
stage enterprise for the foreseeable future, including competition, complications and setbacks in the development program, and
the need for additional capital.
We
have reported losses in each year since its inception. At April 30, 2015, we had an accumulated deficit of $24,055,726. Our history
consists almost entirely of development of its products funded entirely from the sale of our Common Stock in the absence of revenues.
We anticipate that it will continue to incur substantial additional operating losses for at least the next 12 months and expects
cumulative losses to increase as our development efforts expand.
Although
we anticipate receiving future revenues from the sales of engines or the licensing of our technology or pursuant to a joint
venture, we have received minimal revenues in preparation for licensing or joint venture activities, and there are no assurances
that significant revenues will be derived from this activity in the future. We have received no revenues from sales of any of
the products under development. There can be no assurance as to when or if we will be able to develop significant sources of revenue
or whether our operations will become profitable, even if we are able to commercialize any product. See “Operating and Financial
Review and Prospects,” and Notes to Financial Statements.
We
have no assurance that we will be able to develop a commercially feasible product.
We
have no assurance at this time that a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable.
Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will
be accepted by end users. The Rand Cam Engine which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other
engines that competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate its potential markets.
If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our
investors could lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that we or potential licensees will be able to achieve
and maintain end user acceptance of our engine.
We
will require additional financing and we may not be able to secure the financing necessary to continue our development and operations.
There
is no assurance that we will be able to secure the financing necessary to continue our development and operations. Our expectations
as to the amount of funds needed for development and the timing of the need for these funds is based on our current operating
plan, which can change as a result of many factors, and we could require additional funding sooner than anticipated. Our cash
needs may vary materially from those now planned because of results of development or changes in the focus and direction of our
development program, competitive and technological advances, results of laboratory and field testing, requirements of regulatory
agencies and other factors.
We
have no credit facility or other committed sources of capital. To the extent capital resources are insufficient to meet future
capital requirements, we will have to raise additional funds to continue our development and operations. There can be no assurance
that such funds will be available on favorable terms, or at all. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale
of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. If adequate
funds are not available, we may be required to curtail operations significantly or to obtain funds on unattractive terms. Our
inability to raise capital would have a material adverse effect on us.
We
expect to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future.
We
expect to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and cannot be certain when or if we will achieve profitability.
Failure to become and remain profitable will adversely affect the value of our common shares and our ability to raise capital
and continue operations.
We
have no assurance that our products will receive market acceptance.
Our
profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will
be accepted by end users. The Rand Cam Engine which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other
engines which our competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate our potential
markets. A number of rotary engines have been designed over the past 80 years but only one, the Wankel, has been able to
achieve mechanical practicality and any significant market acceptance. If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do
not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment. There can
be no assurance that we or our potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine.
Our
officers lack of experience to manufacture or market our products.
Assuming
we are successful in developing the Rand Cam Engine, we presently have no proven ability either to manufacture or market the engine.
There is no assurance that we will be able to profitably manufacture and market engines.
Our
auditors have indicated that our losses raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue a going concern.
The
report of our independent auditors with respect to our financial statements included in this Form 20-F includes a “going
concern” qualification, indicating that our losses and deficits in working capital and shareholders’ equity raise
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. See ” Operating and Financial Review and Prospects”
and Notes to Financial Statements.
We
are dependent upon certain members of our staff, the loss of which could adversely affect our business.
We
are dependent on certain members of our management and engineering staff, the loss of services of one or more of whom could adversely
affect our business. The loss of any of these key individuals could hamper the successful development of the engine. Our present
officers and directors have other full-time positions or part-time employment unrelated to our business. Some officers and directors
will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only. Our management may devote time
to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us. We do not have “key man” life insurance
on such officers and currently have no plans to obtain such insurance. See “Management”. Our success also depends
on our ability to attract and retain additional skilled employees.
Certain
of our directors and officers are also directors and/or officers and/or shareholders of our potential competitors, giving rise
to potential conflicts of interest.
Several
of our directors and officers are also directors, officers or shareholders of other companies. In particular, Mr. Robertson, and
Mr. Vandeberg are directors and/or officers of both REGI U.S., Inc. and IAS Energy, Inc., each a public company. Additionally,
Mr. Robertson is a director and officer of Linux Gold Corp. and Teryl Resources Corp., each a public natural resource exploration
company that shares office space and administrative staff with our company. Some of our directors and officers are engaged and
will continue to be engaged in the search for additional business opportunities on behalf of other corporations, and situations
may arise where these directors and officers will be in direct competition with our company. Such associations may give rise to
conflicts of interest from time to time. Such a conflict poses the risk that we may enter into a transaction on terms which could
place us in a worse position than if no conflict existed. Conflicts, if any, will be dealt with in accordance with the relevant
provisions of the British Columbia Business Corporations Act. The Board has resolved that any transaction involving a related
party to our company is required to be reviewed and approved by our Audit Committee. Our directors are required by law to act
honestly and in good faith with a view to our best interests and to disclose any interest which they many have in any project
or opportunity in respect of which we are proposing to enter into a transaction.
As
a “foreign private issuer”, we are exempt from the Section 14 proxy rules and Section 16 of the Securities
Act, which may result in shareholders having less complete and timely data.
The
submission of proxy and annual meeting of shareholder information (prepared to Canadian standards) on Form 6-K may result in shareholders
having less complete and timely data. The exemption from Section 16 rules regarding sales of common shares by insiders may result
in shareholders having less data.
We
are dependent upon consultants and outside manufacturing facilities.
Since
our present plans do not provide for a significant technical staff or the establishment of manufacturing facilities, we will be
primarily dependent on others to perform these functions and to provide the requisite expertise and quality control. There is
no assurance that such persons or institutions will be available when needed at affordable prices. It will likely cost more to
have independent companies do research and manufacturing than for us to handle these resources.
Our
business may suffer if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property.
Our
business depends on the protection of our intellectual property and may suffer if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual
property. The success of our business depends on our ability to patent our engine. Currently, we have been granted several U.S.
Patents. We cannot provide assurance that our patents will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged, that the rights granted
under the patents will give us competitive advantages or that our patent applications will be granted.
Our
engines and planned applications may contain product errors which could adversely affect our operations.
Engines
such as the ones proposed by us and our related planned applications may contain errors or defects, especially when first introduced,
or when new versions are released. Our products may not be free from errors after commercial release has occurred. Any errors
that are discovered after such commercial release could result in loss of revenue or delay in market acceptance, diversion of
development resources, damage to our reputation, increased service and warranty costs and liability claims. Any defects in these
products could adversely affect the operation of and market for our products, reduce revenue, increase costs and damage our reputation.
Our
competition possesses greater technical resources and market recognition than us and there is no assurance that we will be able
to compete effectively with these companies.
While
not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting
to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies
which are very concerned about maintaining their market position. These companies possess greater technical resources and market
recognition than us, and have management, financial and other resources not yet available to us. Existing engines are likely to
be perceived by many customers as superior or more reliable than any new product until it has been in the marketplace for a period
of time. There is no assurance that we will be able to compete effectively with these companies.
Market
prices for our products may decline in the future, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.
We
anticipate that market prices for our main products may decline in the future due to increased competition. We expect significant
competition among local and international companies, including from new entrants, may continue to drive equipment prices lower.
We also expect that there may be increases in promotional spending by companies in our industry which would also contribute to
increasing movement of customers between competitors. Such increased competition and the resulting decline of market prices for
our products would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
New
technology or refinement of existing technology could render our Rand Cam products less attractive or obsolete.
New
technology or refinement of existing technology could render our Rand Cam products less attractive or obsolete. Our success depends
in part upon its ability to anticipate changes in technology and industry standards and to successfully develop and introduce
new and improved engines on a timely basis. There is no assurance that we will be able to do so.
Product
liability claims asserted against us in the future could hurt our business.
Product
liability claims asserted against us in the future could hurt our business. If a customer suffers damage from our products, the
customer could sue us on product liability or related grounds, claim damages for data loss or make other claims. We currently
do not carry product liability insurance. While we have not been sued on product liability grounds to date, a successful product
liability or related claim brought against us could harm our business.
Our
success may be dependent on the timing of new product introductions and lack of market acceptance for our new products.
Our
future success may be dependent on the success of our products and services. The success of our business depends on a variety
of factors, including:
● |
the
quality and reliability of our products and services; |
|
|
● |
our
ability to develop new products and services superior to that of our competitors; |
|
|
● |
our
ability to establish licensing relationships and other strategic alliances; |
|
|
● |
our
pricing policies and the pricing policies of our competitors; |
|
|
● |
our
ability to introduce new products and services before our competitors; |
|
|
● |
our
ability to successfully advertise our products and services; and |
|
|
● |
general
economic trends. |
UNCERTAINTIES
AND RISKS RELATING TO COMMON SHARES
There
is only a limited public market for our common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board and the TSX Venture Exchange and those markets
are extremely volatile.
There
is only a limited public market for our common shares on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) and the TSX Venture
Exchange (“TSX.V”), and there is a risk that a broader or more active public trading market for our common
shares will never develop, or be sustained, or that current trading levels will not be sustained.
The
market price for our common shares on the OTCBB and the TSX.V has been and we anticipate will continue to be extremely volatile
and subject to significant price and volume fluctuations in response to a variety of external and internal factors. This is especially
true with respect to emerging companies such as ours. Examples of external factors, which can generally be described as factors
that are unrelated to the operating performance or financial condition of any particular company, include changes in interest
rates and worldwide economic and market conditions, as well as changes in industry conditions, such as regulatory and environment
rules, and announcements of technology innovations or new products by other companies. Examples of internal factors, which can
generally be described as factors that are directly related to our consolidated financial condition or results of operations,
would include release of reports by securities analysts and announcements we may make from time-to-time relative to our operating
performance, advances in technology or other business developments.
Because
we have a limited operating history and no profits to date, the market price for the common shares is more volatile than that
of a seasoned issuer. Changes in the market price of the common shares, for example, may have no connection with our operating
results or prospects. No predictions or projections can be made as to what the prevailing market price for the common shares will
be at any time, or as to what effect, if any, that the sale of shares or the availability of common shares for sale at any time
will have on the prevailing market price.
You
will be subject to the penny stock rules to the extent our stock price on the OTCBB is less than $5.00.
Since
our common shares are not listed on a national stock exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ Market within the United States, trading
in the common shares on the OTCBB is subject, to the extent the market price for the common shares is less than $5.00 per share,
to a number of regulations known as the “penny stock rules”. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer to deliver
a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the SEC, to provide the customer with additional information including current
bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, monthly
account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account, and to make a special written

ITEM
4. INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY
A.
HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE COMPANY
We
were incorporated in British Columbia on October 6, 1982 as Reg Resources Corp. under a perpetual charter pursuant to the British
Columbia Business Corporations Act. On February 23, 1993, we changed our name to Reg Technologies Inc. in order to better
reflect our main area of business development. We did not consolidate our shares at the time our name was changed.
Our
authorized capital consists of unlimited common shares without par value, unlimited preferred shares with a par value of $1.00
per share and unlimited Class “A” non-voting shares without par value. 49,329,670 common shares were issued and outstanding
as of April 30, 2015 and August 31, 2015. There are no Preferred or Class “A” shares currently outstanding. They are
not subject to any future call or assessment and they all have equal voting rights. There are no special rights or restrictions
of any nature attached to any of the shares and they all rank equally, as to all benefits that might accrue to the holder thereof.
Our
head office is located at #240 -11780 Hammersmith Way, Richmond, B.C., V7A 5E9, Canada. Our telephone number is 604-278-5996 and
our fax number is 604-278-3409.
We
were initially involved in the mineral development and oil and gas business. The mineral development business produced no revenues
from operations and the oil and gas business produced only limited revenues.
On
May 23, 1986, we entered an agreement which was amended October 20, 1986 (“Initial Agreement”) among ourselves,
Rand Cam-Engine Corp. (a private company owned by James L. McCann, the inventor of the Rand Cam Engine, and James L. McCann).
Under the Initial Agreement, we acquired a 40% interest in a company to be formed, by paying $50,000 and agreeing to expend $200,000
on research and development pertaining to the Rand Cam Engine, which utilizes a new type of design for a rotary internal combustion
engine.
The
new company was formed and incorporated in British Columbia in November 1989, as Rand Energy Group Inc. (“Rand Energy”),
which would hold all the rights, agreements and patents to the Rand Cam Engine. We acquired 1,200,000 of the issued and outstanding
shares of Rand Energy Group Inc. while Rand Cam-Engine Corp. acquired 1,800,000 of the issued and outstanding shares.
The
Initial Agreement was superseded by an Energy Group Acquisition Agreement dated March 28, 1990 and a Share Purchase Agreement
dated March 28, 1990, whereby James L. McCann and Rand Cam- Engine Corp. agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in
and to the Rand Cam Engine to Rand Energy for 1,800,000 common shares of Rand Energy in consideration for certain covenants and
warranties along with the $250,000 expended in accordance with the Initial Agreement. We were allotted 1,200,000 common shares
of Rand Energy.
These
agreements resulted in us owning 40% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rand Technologies Inc., with the balance of 60% being
owned by Rand Cam-Engine Corp. Pursuant to an amalgamation agreement between the shareholders of Rand Technologies Inc. and Rand
Energy, the two companies were amalgamated, effective July 31, 1993. The amalgamated company is called Rand Energy Group Inc.
(“Rand Group”) and retains the same ownership structure.
Under
an agreement dated April 27, 1993, between ourselves, Rand Group, Rand Cam-Engine Corp. and James L. McCann, Rand Cam-Engine Corporation
agreed to sell to us 330,000 shares of Rand Group, representing a further 11% interest in Rand Group. In consideration for a controlling
interest in Rand Group, we agreed to pay Rand Cam-Engine Corporation $50,000 (paid), issue 600,000 shares (expired) of our common
shares and grant a participating royalty to a maximum amount of $10,000,000, (“Participating Royalty”). The
Participating Royalty is to be paid in minimum annual installments of $50,000 per year beginning on the date the first revenues
are derived from the license or sale of the patented technology and after shares are issued per above. As part of the minimum
payment, we are to pay 5% of all net profits from sales, licenses, royalties or income derived from the patented technology.
Pursuant
to an agreement with Brian Cherry (“Cherry Agreement”) dated July 30, 1992 , Rand Group was assigned all right,
title and interest in the Rand Cam Engine for all countries excluding the United States of America. Also under the Cherry Agreement,
REGI U.S., Inc. was assigned from Brian Cherry all right, title and interest in and to the Rand Cam Engine for the United States.
Pursuant to a letter of understanding among our company, REGI U.S., Inc. and Rand Group (collectively called the “Grantors”)
and West Virginia University Research Corporation (“WVURC”), the Grantors have agreed that WVURC shall own
5% of all patented technology and will receive 5% of all net profits from sales, licenses, royalties or income derived from the
patented technology. A 1% net profit royalty will be payable to Brian Cherry on all U.S. based sales.
REGI
U.S., INC.
REGI
U.S., Inc. (“REGI”) was, until April 30, 2008, controlled by Rand Group. REGI was formerly controlled our company
by way of a voting trust arrangement, which was cancelled on April 30, 2008.
Our
direct investment in REGI, together with its 51% ownership in Rand Group, gives us control over approximately 3,378,183 shares
of REGI, with a carrying value of US$Nil as of April 30, 2015. We can sell, through a registered broker, up to 327,779 shares
of REGI U.S., Inc., being 1% of the issued shares, during any 90 day period. During the year ended April 30, 2011, Rand Energy
sold 163,000 REGI share for US$57,050, and Reg Tech sold 295,300 REGI shares for US$73,825. During the years ended April 30, 2012
and 2013 we did not sell any REGI shares. During the year ended April 30, 2014 we sold 44,916 REGI shares. During the year ended
April 30, 2015 we did not sell REGI shares.
At
April 30, 2015, the market value of the REGI shares owned by us and Rand Energy was US$266,661.
REGI
was organized under the laws of the State of Oregon on July 27, 1992 as Sky Technologies, Inc. with its name changed on August
1, 1994. It has a total authorized capital of 100,000,000 common shares. As of April 30, 2015, a total of 32,779,298 shares of
common stock of REGI were issued and outstanding, of which 588,567 are owned by Rand Energy and 2,744,700 shares are owned by
Reg Tech.
Together
with REGI, we are in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as
the Rand Cam Engine. The world-wide marketing and intellectual rights, other than the U.S., are held by Rand Energy (our Canadian
subsidiary 51% owned by us) which holds approximately a 1.98% interest in REGI. REGI owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual
rights. Rand Group and REGI have a project cost sharing agreement whereby these companies each fund 50% of the development of
the Technology.
As
at April 30, 2015, REGI owed us $1,318,674 (2014 - $986,825) which will be fully repaid prior to royalty obligation due, and prior
to dividends being paid to the owners of Rand Group.
Minewest
Gold and Silver Inc.
In
July, 2010 we incorporated our 80% owned subsidiary Minewest Gold and Silver Corp. Inc. (“Minewest”), a private
company incorporated in British Columbia for the purpose of acquiring and exploring mineral properties. During the year ended
April 30, 2011, we transferred to Minewest our 100% ownership in our undivided 50% interest subject to a 5% net smelter return
in 33 mining claims (the “Silverknife Property”) in the Tootsee River area of the province of British Columbia for
cash payment of $25,000 and issuance of 8,000,000 common shares of Minewest. Effective December 15, 2010 Minewest purchased 100%
of Rapitan Resources Inc.’s ownership in 25% interest of the Silverknife Property for cash payment of $10,000 and issuance
of 2,0000,000 common shares of Minewest.
Effective
November 17, 2011 Reg Tech obtained court approval for the Plan of Arrangement. On December 14, 2011, Reg Tech declared Minewest
shares as dividend for Reg Tech shareholders on the record date of December 21, 2011, whereby one Minewest shares is to be distributed
for seven Reg Tech shares of holders with a minimum of 100 shares and cash payment to be made to shareholders with fewer than
100 shares. The share distribution and cash payments are subject to Minewest being listed on the CSE (formerly CNSX). As a result
of the dividend declaration, the Company expects to retain approximately 3,287,737 shares of Minewest.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW
Nature
of Our Operations
We
are engaged in the business of developing and building an improved axial vane-type rotary engine used in the design of lightweight
and high efficiency engines, compressors and pumps. We hold the worldwide intellectual and marketing rights to the Rand Cam Engine,
exclusive of the United States, which are held by REGI. REGI owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights and has a project
cost sharing agreement, whereby it will fund 50% of the further development of the Rand Cam Engine and we will fund 50%.
Based
upon testing work performed by independent organizations on prototype models, we believe that the Rand Cam Engine holds significant
potential in a number of other applications ranging from small stationary equipment to automobiles and aircraft. In additional
to its potential use as an internal combustion engine, the Rand Cam Engine design is being employed in the development of several
types of compressors, pumps, expanders and other applications.
To
date, several prototypes of the Rand Cam Engine have been tested and additional development and testing work is continuing. We
believe that such development and testing will continue until a commercially feasible design is perfected. There is no assurance
at this time, however, that such a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable.
If a commercially feasible design is perfected, we do, however, expect to derive revenues from licensing the Technology relating
to the Rand Cam Engine regardless of whether actual commercial production is ever achieved. There is no assurance at this time,
however, that revenues will ever be received from licensing the Technology even if it does prove to be commercially feasible.
We
believe that a large market would exist for a practical rotary engine which could be produced at a competitive price and which
could provide a good combination of fuel efficiency, power density and exhaust emissions.
Based
on the market potential, we believe the Rand Cam Engine is well suited for application to internal combustion engines, pumps,
compressors and expansion engines. The mechanism can be scaled to match virtually any size requirement. This flexibility opens
the door to large markets being developed.
Products
and Projects
RadMax™
Pump
The
Company actively pursued the development of the RadMax™ Pump from early 2007 until March 2008. From September 2007 until
March 2008, the Company worked with an industry partner in the water pump industry. The partner evaluated the Pump as a potential
new product offering as part of its fire engine chemical dispersant product line. The evaluation and test period ended when the
partner had a change in its senior management and their leading advocate left the company. Until there is further interest established
in the RadMax™ Pump by an end user, no further work is anticipated.
The
Company then focused all of its technical resources on validating the seals for a compressor application, leading towards the
technology incorporation in the RadMax™ engine.
In
February 2009 the pump was set up in the Company’s Richmond, B.C. laboratory, for demonstration to interested parties. It
is a fully functional prototype capable of pumping twice its internal volume every revolution. Future development would take the
form of customization based on interest from another industry partner. Commercialization requires tooling to significantly reduce
the cost of the pump in a production environment. Until there is further interest established in the RadMax™ Pump by an
end user, no further work is anticipated.
RadMax™
Compressor
The
Company actively pursued the development of high pressure metal seals using the RadMax™ Compressor from July 2007 until
September 2007. The technical concept of high pressure metal seals was validated in a prototype compressor test bed that was fabricated
from residual hardware. There was no immediate interest by an industry partner to continue a joint development of the RadMax™
Compressor. Until there is further interest established in the RadMax™ Compressor by an end user, no further work will be
conducted.
The
compressor is a fully functional prototype design capable of 48 individual compression events every revolution, which represent
twice its internal volume. Future development would take the form of customization based on interest from another industry partner.
Commercialization requires tooling to significantly reduce the cost of the compressor in a production environment. Until there
is further interest established in the RadMax™ Compressor by an end user, no further work will be conducted.
Recent
Development
On
May 27, 2014, we announced that the manufacturing of the more durable seals had been completed by TrelleborgAB of Sweden, a leading
supplier of sealing solutions. A test fixture for analyzing the seal performance had been manufactured by Ebco Industries of Richmond,
BC. Paul Porter, our Chief Engineer and a director of the board, had commenced testing and installation of the new seals for the
demonstration engine, prior to the comprehensive testing for emissions, fuel consumption and wear and tear, using both diesel
and natural gas.
On
September 16, 2014 we announced that the RadMax™ test fixture was completed. Mr. Paul Porter reported:
● |
The
test fixture had been completed and assembled. |
|
|
● |
Several
seal combinations had been tested in the fixture. |
|
|
● |
The
fixture would allow the Company to quickly and inexpensively evaluate sealing combinations, vane designs and lubrication and
cooling methods without risking damage or modifying the current prototype. |
|
|
● |
With
the test fixture, we could evaluate wear patterns, seal life and friction created in the combustion chamber. |
|
|
● |
We
could locate and quantify potential sealing or wear problems rapidly and cost effectively. |
|
|
● |
The
test chamber was a major step toward optimizing the performance of the RadMax™ prototype and all future engine builds. |
|
|
● |
The
test fixture could be easily modified to test vanes for use in both smaller and larger engine builds. |
Mr.
Porter stated that the test fixture would be the key to the rapid development of future engine designs. New prototypes could as
a result be designed and tested with greater confidence, lower costs and with greater efficiency.
On
January 8, 2015 we reported that the vane seal installation tool was completed by Ebco Industries during December 2014. The vane
seal installation tool had been tested and performed perfectly, allowing for better seal placement, retention and prevention of
tearing during the vane installation.
Plans
for companies 350 hp RadMax™ diesel engine were as follows:
● |
The new oil cooler would be tested in the test fixture, along with the
vanes. |
|
|
● |
Static and dynamic testing would be performed in the test
fixture. |
|
|
● |
Upon successful
completion of the
static testing additional
oil, coolers would
be manufactured to allow the prototype to be populated in all 24
slots. |
|
|
● |
Additional testing
would be completed
for fuel consumption,
emissions and wear
and tear. |
On
March 3, 2015 we reported that based on recent successful testing of the new oil cooler design by Mr. Porter, that it had issued
a purchase order to EBCO Industries for 22 additional oil coolers. This would allow up to 375 hp rotary diesel prototype to be
populated in all 24 slots.
Mr
Porter reported the following:
● |
The
new oil cooler design was tested in order to verify the new design. The first test results indicated that the vane seals were
not being torn during installation and the leakage rate appeared to be minimal. |
|
|
● |
The
new installation tool worked perfectly and allowed for the insertion and removal of the vanes as many times as were needed
with no detrimental effects on the vane seal. |
|
|
● |
The
seals on the oil cooler performed as desired with no damage observed during the installation and removal of the oil cooler. |
|
|
● |
The
seals appeared to be working properly and created a sealed combustion chamber as needed for the engine. |
Additional
tests to commence on diesel engine working model were as follows:
● |
Additional
static and dynamic testing would be performed in the test fixture to determine the best configuration of all seals. This would
also give indication of the expected life of the seals. |
|
|
● |
Additional
oil coolers were being manufactured to allow the prototype to be populated in all 24 combustion chambers. |
|
|
● |
Development
of facility requirements to begin dynamometer testing of the prototype. |
On
April 8, 2015 we reported that the Company has submitted a new U.S. patent application, for approval, to the U.S. patent office.
This new patent will integrate a RadMax™ generator into the RadMax™ engine, thus being able to produce electrical
power for use in recharging batteries, putting power into the electrical grid or operating any electrical device.
Paul
Porter, Chief Engineer, stated that the RadMax™ new integrated system would only need one cooling system and one lubrication
system and would double as the starter motor for the engine. This improvement would enable the hybrid car applications to be smaller,
weigh less, fewer emissions, and greatly reduce the number of required components. It would give the hybrid a greater range and
add the option to allow recharging of batteries on electrically powered automobiles.
In
addition, this would allow the RadMax™ to be used as a compact and efficient generator set in remote locations, orphaned
gas wells, and backup power systems for cell towers, hospitals, marine and military applications. By using gas as a fuel for the
generator, the electricity could be transported through the electrical grid rather than the pipeline.
On
June 1, 2015 we announced that Paul Porter, our chief mechanical engineer, was preparing test facilities for the 375hp diesel
engine. He would populate the engine with the new seals and prepare it for full spin testing. This phase of testing should be
the final set of tests prior to placing the engine on a dynamometer. The dynamometer testing would allow us to document friction,
fuel efficiency, net horsepower and emissions.
On
July 31, 2015 we announced that a test bench was fabricated by New Concepts, located in Richmond, BC. The purpose of the new test
bench was to allow the full assembly of the prototype on a bench designed to allow the installation of the oil pump, cooling piping
and starter motor. The bench also must carry the weight of the engine and be stable during the spin testing.
Prototype
Assembly:
● |
All
the new parts required for this engine build have been received and inspected. |
|
|
● |
The
engine was moved to New Concepts and disassembled in order to replace the oil coolers and vanes. |
|
|
● |
All
old parts were cleaned and inspected for damage. |
|
|
● |
The
cams have been stripped and then plated to insure all the surfaces are pristine and do not have any wear or damage from prior
testing. |
|
|
● |
The
assembly process is underway and all new parts have been installed on the rotors with minimal effort. |
Plans:
● |
Complete
assembly of the prototype. |
|
|
● |
Install
the motor and connections needed to perform the spin test. |
|
|
● |
Purchase
and install the oil pump and required piping. |
|

● |
Development
of facility requirements to begin dynamometer testing of the prototype. |
Description
of the Markets in Which We Compete
We
currently face and will continue to face competition in the future from established companies engaged in the business of developing,
manufacturing and marketing engines and other products. While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors,
the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because
most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position.
Such competitors are already well established in the market and have substantially greater resources than us. Internal combustion
engines are produced by automobile manufacturers, marine engine manufacturers, heavy equipment manufacturers and specialty aircraft
and industrial engine manufacturers. We expect that our engine would be used mainly in industrial and marine applications.
Except
for the Wankel rotary engine built by Mazda of Japan, no competitor, that we are aware of, presently produces in a commercial
quantity any rotary engine similar to the engines we are developing. The Wankel rotary engine is similar only in that it is a
rotary engine rather than a reciprocating piston engine. Without substantially greater financial resources than is currently available
to us, however, it is very possible that it may not be able to adequately compete in the engine business. One competitor, Rotary
Power International, is presently producing the first production SCORE rotary (Wankel type) engines. Our Rand Cam Engine is more
fuel efficient, smaller, quieter, costs less to produce and will have fewer exhaust emissions.
We
believe that if and when our engine is completely developed, in order to be successful in meeting or overcoming competition which
currently exists or may develop in the future, our engine will need to offer superior performance and/or cost advantages over
existing engines used in various applications.
We
believe strong competition can be expected in the engine market with new patents being taken out on a continuous basis and that
we may have a time advantage over some of the competitive products as far as niche markets which we may enter, however there is
no way to accurately determine or predict whether this situation is or will continue to be true.
The
conventional piston type internal combustion engine is the prime competitor of the Rand Cam Engine. Due to the substantial infrastructure
built up to support the standard combustion engine, substantial barriers to entry exist into this market.
A
number of the new engine designs over the last decade have offered advantages on the thermodynamics front (e.g. more efficient
use of energy through better combustion, better heat transfer, etc.). In the case of the Rand Cam Engine, its strong point it
believed to be in its mechanism, not in its thermodynamics. Whether or not the engine’s mechanism alone will provide the
competitive edge necessary to result in a marketable and successful product is unknown at this time.
Since
we do not have management experience in manufacturing engines, it hopes to be able to follow the same strategy as that of other
companies such as Orbital and Wankel, where it would be licensing its technology and would therefore not be directly engaged in
manufacturing.
An
extensive manufacturing study has not been performed to date and it could turn out that the costs to manufacture are prohibitive
for one or more reasons. However, the computer modeling done can be utilized to generate manufacturing drawings which could be
used to obtain preliminary costing estimates.
The
development of our business and our ability to maintain our competitive and technical position has depended and will depend, in
part, upon our ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, engineering, managerial and manufacturing personnel.
Significant
competition exists from engine manufacturers and engineering firms specializing in the development of internal combustion engines
technology for the automotive, marine, motorcycle and small engine industry. Such competition also exists in the pump and compressor
markets which may utilize the Rand Cam technology in their products. Many of these companies have substantially greater resources
for research, development and manufacturing than us. It is possible that our competitors may succeed in developing technologies
and products that are more effective or commercially acceptable. We believe, based on the testing of the Rand Cam Engine that
the engine is a superior overall engine package to the reciprocating piston engine. This assessment is made on the basis of the
Rand Cam Engine’s potential for reduced engine weight and packaging volume, improved performance, and possibly lower manufacturing
costs.
Technology
development is taking place on many fronts and competitors may have, unknown to us, a product or products under development which
may be technologically superior to ours which may be more acceptable to the market. Competition with engines employing Rand Cam
technology may also include other lean burn engines, electric motors, gas turbine engines, solar power and hybrid vehicles, and
may include concepts not yet known to us.
Seasonality
We
believe that there is no seasonality which affects our products.
Availability
of Raw Materials
Since
we are not in production and there are no plans at this time for us to enter the engine manufacturing business, raw materials
are not of present concern. At this time, however, there does not appear to be any foreseeable problem with obtaining any materials
or components, which may be required in the manufacture of its potential products.
Marketing
Strategy
We
intend to pursue the development of the Rand Cam Engine by entering into licensing and/or joint venture arrangements with other
larger companies, which have the financial resources to maximize the potential of the technology. We have no current plans to
become actively involved in either manufacturing or marketing any engine or other product which it may ultimately develop to the
point of becoming a commercial product.
Our
current objective is to complete and test the Rand Cam Engine. Based on the successful testing, the prototypes will be used for
presentation purposes to potential license and joint venture partners.
We
expect revenue from license agreements with the potential end users based on the success of the design from the compressor, pump,
and diesel engine prototypes. Based on of successful testing of the Rand Cam prototypes, we expect to have joint venture or license
agreements finalized, which would result in royalties to us. However, there is no assurance that the tests will be successful
or that we will ever receive any such royalties.
Dependence
on Certain Commercial Agreements
We
do not have any material agreements upon which we are dependent.
Patents
and Licenses
Patents
Patent
2,496,157 for the RadMax™ design was granted on June 25, 2013. The term of the patent is for twenty years from the date
of the application on February 8, 2005. The title of the patent is Vane-Type Rotary Apparatus with Split Vanes. U.S. patent 5,429,084
was granted on July 4, 1995, to James McCann, Brian Cherry, Patrick Badgley and four other individuals for various improvements
incorporated in the RC/DC Engine, This patent has been assigned to us. The patent to the original Rand Cam engine, U.S. Patent
4,401,070, was issued on August 30, 1983 to James McCann and the marketing rights are held by Rand Energy.
The
RC/DC Engine is composed basically of a disk shaped rotor with drive shaft, which turns, and the housing or stator, which remains
stationary. The rotor has two or more vanes that are mounted perpendicular to the direction of rotation and slide back and forth
through it. As the rotor turns, the ends of the vanes ride along the insides of the stator housing which have wave-like depressions,
causing the vanes to slide back and forth. In the process of turning and sliding, combustion chambers are formed between the rotor,
stator walls and vanes where the fuel/air mixture is injected, compressed, burned and exhausted.
Two
additional patents have been issued for improvements to the engine including: U.S. Patents 5,509,793 “Rotary Device with
Slidable Vane Supports, issued April 24, 1996 and 5,551,853 “Axial Vane Rotary Device and Sealing System” issued September
3, 1996.
The
worldwide patents cover Canada and several countries in Europe, namely, Germany, France, Great Britain, and Italy.
Royalty
Payments
We
are required to pay Rand Group semi-annually a royalty of 5% of any net profits to be derived by us from revenues received as
a result of our license of the Rand Cam Engine. We are required to pay Brian Cherry a royalty of 1% semi-annually on any net profits
derived by us from revenue received as a result of our licensing the Rand Cam Engine.
Other
provisions of the April 1993 Agreement call for is (a) to pay to Rand Group a continuing royalty of 5% of the net profits derived
from the Technology by us and (b) to pay to Brian Cherry a continuing royalty of 1% of the net profits derived by us from the
Technology.
Pursuant
to the letter of understanding dated December 13, 1993, among us, Rand Group, REGI and WVURC, WVURC will receive 5% of all net
profits from sales, licenses, royalties or income derived from the patented technology relating to the Rand Cam Engine and the
RC/DC Engine.
Material
Effects of Government Regulation
Our
engine products will be subject to various exhaust emissions standards depending upon the application and the country in which
it is produced and/or sold. As each product becomes ready for sale, it will be necessary to have the engine certified according
to the standards in effort at that time.
C.
ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE
As
of the date of this report, we own approximately 26.10% interest in Minewest Silver and Gold Inc., a private British Columbia
company, and a 51% interest in Rand Energy Group Inc., which owns a 1.80% interest in REGI. We also own an 8.37% interest in REGI.
D.
PROPERTY, PLANTS AND EQUIPMENT
We
own no properties. We currently utilize office space in a commercial business park building located in Richmond, British Columbia,
Canada, a suburb of Vancouver, shared by several companies related by common officers and directors.
Plan
of Operations
The
following contains forward-looking statements relating to revenues, expenditures and sufficiency of capital resources. Actual
results may differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements for a number of reasons, including those described in
this Form 20-F Annual Report. We do not intend to update the forward-looking information to reflect actual results or changes
in the factors affecting such forward-looking information.
Source
of Funds for Fiscal 2014 and 2015
Our
primary source of funds since incorporation has been through the issuance of equity securities.
We
have been successful in the past in acquiring capital through the issuance of common shares and through advances from related
parties. Although we intend to continue utilizing these sources, there has been no assurance in the past that these sources and
methods would continue to be available in the future.
The
audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going-concern. As discussed in
Note 1 to the audited consolidated financial statements, we have no revenues and limited capital, which together raise substantial
doubt about our ability to continue as a going-concern. Management plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note
1. The audited consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
In
the event that no other sources of capital were available to us in the future, on a reasonable financial basis, we would face
the same obstacles as many small, undercapitalized companies do, and, in the worst case, we could be forced to reorganize or liquidate,
either of which consequence would likely have an adverse financial effect upon our shareholders.
Use

ITEM
5. OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included
elsewhere herein. The audited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS for fiscal 2014 and
2015.
Overview
We
are a development stage company engaged in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type
rotary engine known as the Rand Cam Engine.
As
a development stage company, we devote most of our activities to establishing our business. Planned principal activities have
not yet produced significant revenues. We have undergone losses to date totaling $24,055,726 and further losses are expected until
we complete a licensing agreement with a manufacturer and reseller. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to
continue as a going concern. Our ability to emerge from the development stage with respect to our planned principal business activity
is dependent upon our successful efforts to raise additional equity financing, receive funding from affiliates and controlling
shareholders, and develop a market for our products.

B.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Liquidity
Fiscal
year ended April 30, 2015
As
of April 30, 2015 we had a cash and cash equivalent position of $175,254 compared to $941,914 as at April 30, 2014, representing
a decrease of $766,660. As at April 30, 2015 we had a working capital of $1,381,756, compared to a working capital of $2,097,116
as at April 30, 2014.
During
the year ended April 30, 2014, we raised $1,188,000 from issuance of 9,900,000 units of private placement. During the year ended
April 30, 2015 we did not raise funds from our financing activities.
As
at April 30, 2015, we were owed $1,318,674 (April 30, 2014 - $986,825) by REGI. REGI and the Company is each responsible for 50%
of the costs for RadMax Engine research and development and related administrative support.
Capital
Resources
We
are still in the development stage of our business and expect to continue with research and development activities and mineral
exploration activities for the near future. We do not expect to generate significant revenues in the near future and will have
to continue to rely upon the sale of equity securities to raise capital or shareholder loans. Fluctuations in our share price
may affect our ability to obtain future financing and the rate of dilution to existing shareholders.
We
have no funding commitments or arrangements for additional financing at this time and there is no assurance that we will be able
to obtain any additional financing on terms acceptable to us, if at all. Any additional funds raised will be used for general
and administrative expenses, and to continue with our research and development activities. The quantity of funds to be raised
and the terms of any equity financing that may be undertaken will be negotiated by management as opportunities to raise funds
arise.
We
estimate that we will require approximately $250,000 to fund our general and administrative expenses for the next twelve months.
We will also require approximately $250,000 to fund our share of the costs for the Rand Cam Engine, being the master design integrator,
prototype fabrication and labour expense. We do not currently have sufficient working capital to carry out our current operations.
In order to continue, we will need to raise funds by way of an equity financing. The quantity of funds to be raised and the terms
of any equity financing that may be undertaken will be negotiated by management as opportunities to raise funds arise.
Since
our incorporation, we have financed our operations almost exclusively through the sale of our common shares to investors and by
borrowing from related parties. We expect to finance operations through the sale of equity in the foreseeable future as we do
not currently generate any revenues from business operations. There is no guarantee that we will be successful in arranging financing
on acceptable terms. To a significant extent, our ability to raise capital is affected by trends and uncertainties beyond our
control. Our ability to attain our business objectives may be significantly impaired if the Technology cannot be commercialized.
Our
objectives when managing capital are to safeguard our ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the development
of the Technology and to maintain a flexible capital structure for our projects for the benefit of our stakeholders. As we are
not earning any revenues from operations, our principal source of funds is from the issuance of common shares.
C.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND LICENSES, ETC.
The
basic research and development work on the Rand Cam Engine is being coordinated and funded by our company and REGI as to 50% each.
We
plan to contract with outside individuals, institutions and companies to perform most of the additional research and development
work which we may require to benefit from our rights to the Rand Cam Engine.
During
the last two fiscal years, we spent $58,402 and $47,668 on research and development in fiscal 2015 and 2014 respectively.

B.
COMPENSATION
During
the financial year ended April 30, 2015, we had two Named Executive Officer (“NEO”) being John Robertson, Chief
Executive Officer (“CEO”) and President and James Vandeberg, Chief Financial Officer.
“Named
Executive Officer” or “NEO” means: (a) each CEO, (b) each CFO, (c) each of the three most highly
compensated executive officers, or the three most highly compensated individuals acting in a similar capacity, other than the
CEO and CFO, at the end of the most recently completed financial year whose total compensation was, individually, more than $150,000;
and (d) each individual who would be a NEO under (c) above but for the fact that the individual was neither an executive officer
of a company, nor acting in a similar capacity, at the end of that financial year.
Compensation
Objectives and Principles
The
primary goal of our executive compensation program is to attract and retain the key executives necessary for our long term success,
to encourage executives to further our development and our operations, and to motivate top quality and experienced executives.
The key elements of our executive compensation program are: (i) base salary; (ii) potential annual incentive award; and (iii)
incentive stock options. Our directors are of the view that all elements of the total program should be considered, rather than
any single element.
Compensation
Discussion and Analysis
Our
executive officers make recommendations to the Board regarding compensation policies and the compensation of senior officers.
We do not have a Compensation Committee. The compensation of the senior executives comprises two components; namely, a base salary
or consulting fees and the grant of stock options pursuant to our stock option plan. These forms of compensation are chosen to
attract, retain and motivate the performance of selected directors, officers, employees or consultants of high caliber and potential.
Each senior executive is employed for his or her skills to perform specific tasks and the base salary and number of options is
fixed accordingly.
Senior
executives generally enter into an employment agreement, with standard clauses covering salaries and termination and change of
control provisions. The highlights of the employment agreements for the NEOs are outlined below under the section entitled “Management
Contracts” and Narrative Discussion under the Summary Compensation Table.
Option-based
Awards
The
grant of option-based awards to the senior executives is determined by the recommendation of executive officers to the Board pursuant
to the terms of our stock option plan. Previous grants of option-based awards are taken into account when considering new grants.
The options are always granted at market price.
Benefits
and Perquisites
Our
NEOs do not receive any benefits or perquisites other than as disclosed herein.
Summary
Compensation Table
The
following table provides a summary of the compensation earned by, paid to, or accrued and payable to, each NEO during the fiscal

Common
Share Description
Our
authorized capital consists of unlimited common shares without par value, unlimited preferred shares with a par value of $1.00
per share and Class “A” non-voting shares without par value. 49,329,670 shares were issued and outstanding as of April
30, 2015 and 2014. There are no Preferred or Class “A” Shares currently outstanding. All the Issuer’s outstanding
shares are Common Shares. They are not subject to any future call or assessment and they all have equal voting rights. There are
no special rights or restrictions of any nature attached to any of the shares and they all rank equally, as to all benefits that
might accrue to the holder thereof.
Holders
of common shares are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be acted upon by the shareholders. Holders
of common shares are entitled to receive such dividends as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors, in its
discretion, out of funds legally available therefore.
Upon
our liquidation, dissolution or winding up, holders of common shares are entitled to receive pro rata our assets, if any,
remaining after payments of all debts and liabilities.
No
shares have been issued subject to call or assessment. There are no pre-emptive or conversion rights and no provisions for redemption
or purchase for cancellation, surrender, or sinking or purchase funds.
Provisions
as to the modification, amendment or variation of such shareholder rights or provisions are contained in the Business Corporations
Act (British Columbia). Unless the Act or our Articles otherwise provide, any action to be taken by a resolution of the shareholders
may be taken by an ordinary resolution, being approved by a vote of a majority of the votes cast in respect of the matter at the
shareholders’ meeting.
There
are no restrictions on the repurchase or redemption of our common shares while there is any arrearage in the payment of dividends
or sinking fund installments.

MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
Our
Memorandum and Articles are incorporated by reference to the information in our registration statement on Form 20-F filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission, in Washington, D.C. on June 15, 1994, to which our Articles of Incorporation and Memorandum
were filed as exhibits.
We
were originally incorporated on October 6, 1982 as Reg Resources Corp. under a perpetual charter pursuant to the British Columbia
Business Corporations Act (formerly the Company Act) by registration of our Memorandum and Articles. On February
23, 1993 we changed our name to Reg Technologies Inc. in order to better reflect our main area of business development. We did
not consolidate our shares at the time our name was changed.
C.
MATERIAL CONTRACTS
During
the past two years ended April 30, 2015 and April 30, 2014, we were not subject to or entered into any material contracts except
equity transactions.
D.
EXCHANGE CONTROLS
There
are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada relating to restrictions on the export of capital affecting the remittance
of interest, dividends or other payments to nonresident holders of the Registrant’s shares. Any such remittances, however,
are subject to withholding tax. See Item 7, “Taxation”.
There
are no limitations under the laws of Canada, the Province of British Columbia or in the charter or any other constituent documents
of our company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote our shares. However, under the provisions of the Investment Canada
Act, when control of a Canadian business is acquired by a non- Canadian, the transaction may be reviewable in certain circumstances
by Investment Canada, an agency of the federal government of Canada. Reviewable transactions are those in which a non-Canadian
acquires the assets of a Canadian business or the voting shares of a Canadian corporation the value of which assets or shares
exceeds $5 million (Canadian). Also, certain transactions are specifically exempted from review.
E.
TAXATION
Certain
Canadian Federal Income Tax Consequences
The
discussion under this heading summarizes the principal Canadian federal income tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing
of shares of our common stock for a shareholder of ours who is not a resident of Canada but is a resident of the U.S. and who
will acquire and hold our common shares as capital property for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Canadian
Tax Act”). This summary does not apply to a shareholder who carries on business in Canada through a “permanent
establishment” situated in Canada or performs independent personal services in Canada through a fixed base in Canada
if the shareholder’s holding in Reg Technologies Inc. is effectively connected with such permanent establishment or fixed
base. This summary is based on the provisions of the Canadian Tax Act and the regulations thereunder and on an understanding of
the administrative practices of Canada Revenue Agency, and takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Tax
Act or regulations made by the Minister of Finance of Canada as of the date hereof. It has been assumed that there will be no
other relevant amendment of any governing law although no assurance can be given in this respect. This discussion is general only
and is not, nor is it intended to provide a detailed analysis of the income tax implications of any particular shareholder’s
interest. Investors are advised to obtain independent advice from a shareholder’s own Canadian and U.S. tax advisors with
respect to income tax implications pertinent to their particular circumstances. The provisions of the Canadian Tax Act are subject
to income tax treaties to which Canada is a party, including the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980), as
amended (the “Convention”).
Dividends
on Common Shares and Other Income
Under
the Canadian Tax Act, a non-resident of Canada is generally subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25 percent on dividends
paid or deemed to have been paid to him or her by a corporation resident in Canada. We are responsible for withholding of tax
at the source. The Convention limits the rate to 15 percent if the shareholder is a resident of the U.S. and the dividends are
beneficially owned by and paid to such shareholder, and to 5 percent if the shareholder is also a corporation that beneficially
owns at least 10 percent of the voting stock of the payor corporation.
The
amount of a stock dividend (for tax purposes) would generally be equal to the amount by which the paid up or our stated capital
had increased by reason of the payment of such dividend. We will furnish additional tax information to our shareholders in the
event of such a dividend. Interest paid or deemed to be paid on our debt securities held by non-Canadian residents may also be
subject to Canadian withholding tax, depending upon the terms and provisions of such securities and any applicable tax treaty.
The
Convention generally exempts from Canadian income tax dividends paid to a religious, scientific, literary, educational or charitable
organization or to an organization constituted and operated exclusively to administer a pension, retirement or employee benefit
fund or plan, if the organization is a resident of the U.S. and is exempt from income tax under the laws of the U.S.
Dispositions
of Common Shares
Under
the Canadian Tax Act, a taxpayer’s capital gain or capital loss from a disposition of a share of our common stock is the
amount, if any, by which his or her proceeds of disposition exceed (or are exceeded by, respectively) the aggregate of his or
her adjusted cost base of the share and reasonable expenses of disposition. The capital gain or loss must be computed in Canadian
currency using a weighted average adjusted cost base for identical properties. The capital gains net of losses included in income
are as follows. For gains net of losses realized before February 28, 2000, as to 75%. For gains net of losses realized after February
27, 2000 and before October 18, 2000, as to 66 2/3%. For gains net of losses realized after October 17, 2000, as to 50%. There
are special transitional rules to apply capital losses against capital gains that arose in different periods. The amount by which
a shareholder’s capital loss exceeds the capital gain in a year may be deducted from a capital gain realized by the shareholder
in the three previous years or any subsequent year, subject to certain restrictions in the case of a corporate shareholder.
Under
the Canadian Tax Act, a non-resident of Canada is subject to Canadian tax on taxable capital gains, and may deduct allowable capital
losses, realized on a disposition of “taxable Canadian property.” Shares of our common stock will constitute taxable
Canadian property of a shareholder at a particular time if the shareholder used the shares in carrying on business in Canada,
or if at any time in the five years immediately preceding the disposition 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series
in our capital stock belonged to one or more persons in a group comprising the shareholder and persons with whom the shareholder
and persons with whom the shareholder did not deal at arm’s length and in certain other circumstances.
The
Convention relieves U.S. residents from liability for Canadian tax on capital gains derived on a disposition of shares unless:
(a)
|
the
value of the shares is derived principally from “real property” in Canada, including the right to explore
for or exploit natural resources and rights to amounts computed by reference to production; |
|
|
(b)
|
the
shareholder was resident in Canada for 120 months during any period of 20 consecutive years preceding, and at any time during
the 10 years immediately preceding, the disposition and the shares were owned by him when he or she ceased to be resident
in Canada; or |
|
|
(c)
|
the
shares formed part of the business property of a “permanent establishment” that the holder has or had in
Canada within the 12 months preceding the disposition. |

Disclosure
Controls and Procedures
We
maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports
that we file with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. As required
by SEC Rule 15d-15(b), we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including
our principal executive and financial officers, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based
on the foregoing, our principal executive and financial officers concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not
effective to ensure the information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded,
processed and reported properly within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Our
management and board of directors strive to remedy the deficiencies by thoroughly reviewing the requirements for filings and the
contents of the filings. In addition, we will consult accounting and legal experts on disclosure requirements, and engage them
for extensive reviews prior to our filings with the SEC.
Management’s
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management
is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f)
and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting refers to the process designed by, or under the
supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, and effected by our Board of Directors, management and
other personnel, 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, and includes those policies and
procedures that:
●
|
pertain
to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions
of our assets; |
|
|
● |
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 are being made only in accordance with authorizations
of our management and directors; and |
|
|
● |
provide
reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets
that could have a material effect on our 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.
Our
management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has used the framework set forth in the
report entitled Internal Control Integrated Framework published by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
to conduct an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on its evaluation, our management
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective because certain deficiencies involving internal
controls constituted a material weakness. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal
control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim
financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
We
concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as at April 30, 2015 due to inadequate segregation
of duties and ineffective risk assessment. Once we have adequate funding in place, we will commence a process to enhance and improve
the design of our internal controls over financial reporting. We intend to remediate the material weakness identified above. To
remediate such weakness, we plan to appoint additional qualified personnel to address inadequate segregation of duties and ineffective
risk management, and adopt sufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting. These remediation
efforts are largely dependent upon securing additional financing to cover the costs of implementing the changes required. If we
are unsuccessful in securing such funds, remediation efforts may be adversely affected.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, all internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems
determined to be effective may not prevent or detect misstatements and can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial
statement preparation and presentation. 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.
Attestation
Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
This
annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over
financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant
to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During
the fiscal year ended April 30, 2015, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

16A. AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT
Committees
of the Board and Financial Expert
Audit
Committee
The
Board of directors has determined that it does not have a member that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert”
as defined in Form 20-F of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
We
have been unable to retain the services of a person who qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert”. Until
we appoint such a person, we believe that the members of our Board of Directors are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating
our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. Moreover, the audit committee
is comprised of seasoned business professionals.
On
this basis, we believe that the audit committee has adequate resources available to it when financial expertise and advice are
necessary.
ITEM
16B. CODE OF ETHICS
Code
of Ethics
Our
Board of Directors’ is committed to encouraging and promoting a culture of ethical business conduct and integrity throughout
our company. In order to achieve this objective, efforts are made to the implementation, monitoring and enforcement of our Code
of Ethics (“Code”). This is accomplished by: (a) taking prompt action against violations of the Code; ensuring
employees and consultants are aware that they may discuss their concerns with their supervisor or directly to the Compliance Officer;
the Compliance Officer reporting suspected fraud or securities law violations for review by the Audit Committee and reporting
same to the Board of Directors. We distribute to each new director, officer, employee and consultant our Code.
No
waivers of any provision of this Code of Ethics may be made except by the Board of Directors. Any waiver or amendment shall be
reported as required by law or regulation. There have been no waivers of the Code since its implementation.
A
copy of the Code is available from us on written request, and the text of the code of business conduct and ethics is attached
as an exhibit hereto and posted on our website at www.regtech.com.
Assessments
The
Board of Directors is ultimately responsible for our stewardship, which means that it oversees the day-to-day management delegated
to the President and Chief Executive Officer and our other officers. The Board is charged with the responsibility of assessing
the effectiveness of itself, its committee(s) and the contributions of individual directors.
The
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter was constituted by the Board of Directors to assist the Board and its officers,
employees, and consultants to fulfill fundamental issues including: (a) the regular assessment of our approach to corporate governance
issues; (b) ensuring that such approach supports our effective functioning with a view to the best interests of our shareholders
and effective communication between the Board of Directors and management; and (c) the process, structure and effective system
of accountability by management to the board of directors and by the board to the shareholders, in accordance with applicable
laws, regulations and industry standards for good governance practices. A copy of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
Charter is available on our website at www.regtech.com.
Additionally,
directors and officers are subject to the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, whereby they are required to act honestly,
in good faith and in our best interests.

Technologies Inc. |
We
have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Reg Technologies Inc. (the “Company”), which comprise
the consolidated statements of financial position as at April 30, 2015 and April 30, 2014, and the consolidated statements of
operations and comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of cash flows and consolidated statements of changes in equity for
the years ended April 30, 2015 and April 30, 2014, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s
Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management
is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with International
Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board, and for such internal control as management
determines is necessary to enable the preparation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’
Responsibility
Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits
in accordance with Canadian generally accepted auditing standards and the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. We were not engaged
to perform an audit of the Company’s 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 financial reporting.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An
audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The
procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of
the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the
financial statements.
We
believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In
our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company
as at April 30, 2015 and April 30, 2014, and its financial performance and its cash flows for the years ended April 30, 2015 and
April 30, 2014 in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standards
Board.
Emphasis
of Matter
Without
qualifying our opinion, we draw attention to Note 1 in the consolidated financial statements which indicates that the Company
has incurred losses to date. This condition, along with other matters as set forth in Note 1, indicates the existence of a material
uncertainty that may cast substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Notes

(Expressed

For
the Years Ended April 30, 2015 and 2014
1. |
Nature
and Continuance of Operations |
Reg
Technologies Inc. (“Reg Tech” or the “Company”) is a development stage company in the business of developing
and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand CamTM/Direct Charge Engine
and other RandCamTM/RadMax® applications, such as compressors and pumps (the “Technology”). The worldwide
marketing and intellectual rights, other than in the U.S., are held by the Company, which as at April 30, 2015 owns a 10.17% interest
in REGI U.S, Inc. (“REGI”) (a U.S. public company). REGI owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights. The Company
and REGI have a project cost sharing agreement whereby these two companies each fund 50% of the development of the Technology.
On
July 6, 2010, Reg Tech incorporated a wholly owned subsidiary Minewest Silver and Gold Inc. (“Minewest”) under the
laws of British Columbia. Pursuant to a Plan of Arrangement with Minewest, Reg Tech signed an asset transfer agreement (the “Transfer
Agreement”) on August 5, 2010 with Minewest to transfer Reg Tech’s undivided 45% interest in mineral claims in the
Liard Mining Division, located in northern British Columbia (the “Silverknife Claims”) to Minewest for consideration
of cash payment of $25,000 and issuance of 8,000,000 common shares of the Company.
Effective
November 17, 2011 Reg Tech obtained court approval for the Plan of Arrangement. On December 14, 2011, Reg Tech declared Minewest
shares as dividend for Reg Tech shareholders on the record date of December 21, 2011, whereby one Minewest share is distributed
for seven Reg Tech shares. As a result of the dividend declaration, the Company expects to retain approximately 3,287,737 shares
of Minewest.
In
a development stage company, management devotes most of its activities to establishing a new business. Planned principal activities
have not yet produced any revenues and the Company has incurred recurring operating losses as is normal in development stage companies.
The Company has accumulated losses of $24,055,726 since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s
ability to continue as a going-concern. The ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage with respect to its planned
principal business activity is dependent upon its successful efforts to raise additional equity financing, receive funding from
affiliates and controlling shareholders, and develop a market for its products.
Management
is aware that material uncertainties exist, related to current economic conditions, which could adversely affect the Company’s
ability to continue to finance its activities. The Company receives interim support from affiliated companies and plans to raise
additional capital through debt and/or equity financings. The Company may also raise additional funds through the exercise of
warrants and stock options.
There
is no certainty that the Company’s efforts to raise additional capital will be successful. These financial statements do
not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of
liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in normal operations.

Statement
of compliance |
These
consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, including comparatives, have been prepared in accordance
with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board
(“IASB”).
These
consolidated financial statements were reviewed by the Audit Committee and approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors
on August 28, 2015.

Significant
Accounting Policies |
Basis
of preparation
These
consolidated financial statements were prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention, except for the
revaluation of certain financial instruments.
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also
requires management to exercise judgment in applying the Company’s accounting policies. The areas involving a higher degree
of judgment or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the financial statements are disclosed
in Note 4.
Basis
of consolidation and presentation
These
financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its 80% owned subsidiary Minewest Silver and Gold Inc. (“Minewest”)
until November 18, 2011 when the Company lost control (Note 1) and its 51% owned subsidiary, Rand Energy Group Inc. (“Rand”),
which owns a 1.80% (2014 – 1.80%) interest in REGI. Reg Tech also owns an 8.37% (2014 – 8.41%) interest in REGI. Prior
to April 30, 2008, REGI was considered a controlled subsidiary for consolidation purposes by way of control through an annually
renewable voting trusts agreement, with other affiliated companies. This trusts agreement gave the Company 50% control of the
voting shares of REGI. The agreement could be cancelled by the President of the 51% owned subsidiary with seven days’ written
notice to the affiliated companies. Effective April 30, 2008, the voting trusts agreement was cancelled and consequently the investment
in REGI has been accounted for as investment in associates.
Starting
from November 18, 2011, the accounts of Minewest ceased to be consolidated as a result of Reg Tech’s loss of control in
Minewest and consequently were accounted for as investment in associates.
All
significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Investment
in associates
Investments
in which the Company has the ability to exert significant influence but does not have control are accounted for using the equity
method whereby the original cost of the investment is adjusted annually for the Company’s share of earnings, losses and
dividends during the current year.

Cash
equivalents
Cash
equivalents consist of highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash with original maturities of three months
or less when purchased.
Equipment
Equipment
consists of office furniture and equipment, and computer hardware recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over
a five-year and three-year period, respectively.
Research
and development costs
The
Company carries on various research and development activities to develop its technology. Research costs are expensed in the periods
in which they are incurred. Development costs that meet all of the criteria to be recognized as an intangible asset, including
reasonable expectation regarding future benefits, are capitalized and are amortized over their expected useful lives. To date
the Company has not capitalized any development costs.
Foreign
currency translation
The
functional currency of an entity is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates. The functional
currency of the Company and each of its subsidiaries is the Canadian dollar. The functional currency determinations were conducted
through an analysis of the consideration factors identified in IAS 21, The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates.
Transactions
in currencies other than the Canadian dollar are recorded at exchange rates prevailing on the dates of the transactions. At the
end of each reporting period, monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the year end
exchange rate while non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated
at the exchange rates approximating those in effect on the date of the transactions. Exchange gains and losses arising on translation
are included in comprehensive loss.

Share
- based compensation
The
Company’s share option plan allows Company employees, directors, officers and consultants to acquire shares of the Company.
The fair value of options granted is recognized as share-based compensation expense with a corresponding increase in equity. An
individual is classified as an employee when the individual is an employee for legal or tax purposes (direct employee) or provides
services similar to those performed by a direct employee.
Fair
value is measured at grant date, and each tranche is recognized using the graded vesting method over the period during which the
options vest. The fair value of the options granted is measured using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, taking into account
the terms and conditions upon which the options were granted. At each financial position reporting date, the amount recognized
as an expense is adjusted to reflect the actual number of share options that are expected to vest. In situations where equity
instruments are issued to consultants and some or all of the goods or services received by the entity as consideration cannot
be specifically identified, they are measured at the fair value of the share-based payment. Otherwise, share-based payments are
measured at the fair value of goods or services received.
Income
taxes
Income
tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates
to items recognized directly in equity. Current tax expense is the expected tax payable on taxable income for the year, using
tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at period end, adjusted for amendments to tax payable with regards to previous years.
Deferred
tax is recorded using the liability method, providing for temporary differences, between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities
for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes. Temporary differences are not provided for relating
to goodwill not deductible for tax purposes, the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor
tax loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable
future. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realization or settlement of the carrying amount
of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.
A
deferred tax asset is recognized only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against
which the asset can be utilized. To the extent that the Company does not consider it probable that a future income tax asset will
be recovered, it does not recognize the asset.

Loss
per share
Basic
loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The Company uses
the treasury stock method for calculating diluted loss per share. Under this method the dilutive effect on loss per share is recognized
on the use of the proceeds that could be obtained upon exercise of options, warrants and similar instruments. It assumes that
the proceeds would be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the period. However, diluted loss per
share is not presented where the effects of various conversions and exercise of options and warrants would be anti-dilutive. Shares
held in escrow, other than where their release is subject to the passage of time, are not included in the calculation of the weighted
average number of common shares outstanding.
Financial
instruments
Initial
recognition and measurement
Financial
assets and liabilities are initially recognized at fair value. Financial assets are classified at initial recognition as financial
assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables, held-to-maturity investments, or available-for-sale financial
assets. The Company does not use any hedging instruments. Financial instruments measured at fair value are classified into one
of three levels in the fair value hierarchy according to the reliability of the inputs used to estimate the fair values. The three
levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level
1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level
2 - inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and
Level
3 - inputs that are not based on observable market data.
At
April 30, 2015, all of the financial instruments measured at fair value are included in Level 1.
The
Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, from and to related parties and Minewest, and accounts payable; the fair
values of which are considered to approximate their carrying value due to their short-term maturities or ability of prompt liquidation.

Subsequent
measurement
The
subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on their classification. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
includes financial assets held-for-trading which represent assets that are acquired for the purpose of selling or repurchasing
in the near term. These financial assets are initially recorded in the statement of financial position at fair value with changes
in fair value recognized in the statement of comprehensive loss.
Loans
and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial
measurement at fair value, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest rate
method, less impairment. Any amortization of the effective interest rate method and any impairment is recognized in the statement
of comprehensive loss.
Held-to-maturity
investments represent assets to be held until a specific time period and are initially measured at fair value, including transaction
costs. After initial measurement at fair value, such financial assets are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective
interest rate method, less impairment. Any amortization of the effective interest rate method and any impairment is recognized
in the statement of comprehensive loss.
Available-for-sale
financial assets are investments in equity instruments that are measured at fair value with gains and losses, net of applicable
taxes, included in other comprehensive income until the asset is removed from the statement of financial position. Once this occurs,
the resultant gains or losses are recognized in comprehensive loss. Any permanent impairment of available-for-sale financial assets
is also included in the statement of comprehensive loss.
Financial
liabilities are initially recorded at fair value and are designated as fair value through profit or loss or other financial liabilities.
Derivative financial liabilities are classified as fair value through profit or loss and are initially recorded in the statement
of financial position at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in finance income or finance cost in the statement of
comprehensive loss. Non-derivative financial liabilities are recorded at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method.
Any amortization of the effective interest rate method is recognized in the statement of comprehensive loss.
Financial
assets, others than those at fair value through profit and loss are assessed for indicators of impairment at each period end.
Financial assets are impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after initial
recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been impacted. The amount of impairment
loss is recognized in the statement of comprehensive loss. Any subsequent reversals of impairment are also recognized in the statement
of comprehensive income (loss), except for those related to available-for-sale financial assets.

Mineral
property or exploration and evaluation
The
Company follows the practice of capitalizing all costs relating to the acquisition of, exploration and development of mineral
claims and crediting all proceeds received for farm-out arrangements or recovery of costs against the cost of the related claims.
Such costs include, but are not exclusive to, geological, geophysical studies, exploratory drilling and sampling. At such time
as commercial production commences, these costs will be charged to operations on a unit-of-production method based on proven and
probable reserves. The aggregate costs related to abandoned mineral claims are charged to operations at the time of any abandonment
or when it has been determined that there is evidence of a permanent impairment. An impairment charge relating to a mineral property
is subsequently reversed when new exploration results or actual or potential proceeds on sale or farm-out of the property result
in a revised estimate of the recoverable amount but only to the extent that this does not exceed the original carrying value of
the property that would have resulted if no impairment had been recognized.
The
recoverability of amounts shown for exploration and evaluation assets is dependent upon the discovery of economically recoverable
reserves, the ability of the Company to obtain financing to complete development of the properties, and on future production or
proceeds of disposition.
The
Company recognizes in income the costs recovered on mineral properties when the amounts received or receivable are in excess of
the carrying amount.
Upon
transfer of “Exploration and evaluation costs” into “Mine Development”, all subsequent expenditure on
the construction, installation or completion of infrastructure facilities is capitalized within “Mine development”.
After production starts, all assets included in “Mine development” are transferred to “Producing Mines”.

Mineral
property or exploration and evaluation (Cont’d)
All
capitalized exploration and evaluation expenditure is monitored for indications of impairment. Where a potential impairment is
indicated, assessments are performed for each area of interest. To the extent that exploration expenditure is not expected to
be recovered, it is charged to the results of operations. Exploration areas where reserves have been discovered, but require major
capital expenditure before production can begin, are continually evaluated to ensure that commercial quantities of reserves exist
or to ensure that additional exploration work is underway as planned.
Asset
retirement and environmental obligations
The
fair value of a liability for an asset retirement or environmental obligation is recognized when a reasonable estimate of fair
value can be made. The asset retirement or environmental obligation is recorded as a liability with a corresponding increase to
the carrying amount of the related long-lived asset. Subsequently, the asset retirement or environmental cost is charged to operations
using a systematic and rational method and the resulting liability is adjusted to reflect period-to-period changes in the liability
resulting from the passage of time and revisions to either the timing or the amount of the original estimate of undiscounted cash
flow. As of April 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company does not have any asset retirement or environmental obligations.
Impairment
of assets
The
carrying amount of the Company’s assets (which includes the exploration and evaluation asset) are reviewed at each reporting
date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset
is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss. An impairment loss is recognized whenever the carrying amount
of an asset or its cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. Impairment losses are recognized in the statement of comprehensive
loss.
The
recoverable amount of assets is the greater of an asset’s fair value less cost to sell and value in use. In assessing value
in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the
current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. For an asset that does not generate
cash inflows largely independent of those from other assets, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit
to which the asset belongs. An impairment loss is only reversed if there is an indication that the impairment loss may no longer
exist and there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount, however, not to an amount higher
than the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognized in previous years. Assets that
have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortization and are tested annually for impairment.

New
standards and interpretations
The
following standard has been issued but is not yet effective:
(i)
Financial instruments
The
IASB has issued IFRS 9 - Financial Instruments (“IFRS 9”) which intends to replace IAS 39 – Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement (“IAS 39”) in its entirety with three main phases. IFRS 9 will be the new standard for
the financial reporting of financial instruments. The IASB tentatively decided to defer the mandatory effective date until January
1, 2018 with earlier adoption still permitted. The Company will evaluate the impact the final standard will have on its financial
statements based on the characteristics of its financial instruments at the time of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating
the impact of the standard on its financial performance and financial statements disclosures but expects that such impact will
not be material.
The
Company has adopted the following new accounting standards effective May 1, 2014. These changes were in made in accordance with
the applicable transitional provisions and had no impact on the financial statements.
(i)
Levies
The
IASB issued IFRIC 21 - Levies (“IFRIC 21”), an interpretation of IAS 37 - Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent
Assets (“IAS 37”), on the accounting for levies imposed by governments. IAS 37 sets out criteria for the recognition
of a liability, one of which is the requirement for the entity to have a present obligation as a result of a past activity or
event (“obligating event”) described in the relevant legislation that triggers the payment of the levy. IFRIC 21 is
effective for annual periods commencing on or after January 1, 2014.

the recoverable amount of an asset or CGU to periods in which an impairment loss has been recognized or reversed. The amendments
also expand and clarify the disclosure requirements applicable when an asset or CGU’s recoverable amount has been determined
on the basis of fair value less cost of disposal. The amendments are effective for annual periods beginning on or after January
1, 2014 and should be applied retrospectively.

Critical
Accounting Estimates and Judgments |
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in accordance with IFRS requires management to make estimates and assumptions about the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities, and the results of operations. Significant areas requiring the use of management
estimates include determination of accrued liabilities, deferred tax assets and stock-based compensation. Actual results could
differ from the estimates made.
The estimates and underlying assumptions
are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimates is revised
if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and further periods if the review affects both current
and future periods.
Use of judgements
Critical accounting judgements
are accounting policies that have been identified as being complex or involving subjective judgements or assessments with a significant
risk of material adjustment in the next year.
|
(i) |
Determination
of functional currency |
The Company determines the functional
currency through an analysis of several indicators such as expenses and cash flow, financing activities, retention of operating
cash flows, and frequency of transactions with the reporting entity.

(ii) |
Valuation
of share-based payments |
The Company uses the Black-Scholes
Option Pricing Model for valuation of share-based payments. Option pricing models require the input of subjective assumptions
including expected price volatility, interest rate, and forfeiture rate. Changes in the input assumptions can materially affect
the fair value estimate and the Company’s earnings and equity reserves.
In assessing the probability of
realizing income tax assets, management makes estimates related to expectations of future taxable income, applicable tax opportunities,
expected timing of reversals of existing temporary differences and the likelihood that tax positions taken will be sustained upon
examination by applicable tax authorities. In making its assessments, management gives additional weight to positive and negative
evidence that can be objectively verified.
The assessment of the Company’s
ability to execute its strategy by funding future working capital requirements involves judgment. The directors monitor future
cash requirements to assess the Company’s ability to meet these future funding requirements.

Financial
Instruments and Risk Management |
Foreign exchange risk
The Company is primarily exposed
to currency fluctuations relative to the Canadian dollar through expenditures that are denominated in US dollars. Also, the Company
is exposed to the impact of currency fluctuations on its monetary assets and liabilities.
The operating results and the financial
position of the Company are reported in Canadian dollars. Fluctuations in exchange rates will, consequently, have an impact upon
the reported operations of the Company and may affect the value of the Company’s assets and liabilities.
The Company currently does not
enter into financial instruments to manage foreign exchange risk.
The Company is exposed to foreign
currency risk through the following financial assets and liabilities that are denominated in United States dollars:

|
At April 30, 2015 with other variables
unchanged, a +/-10% change in exchange rates would increase/decrease pre-tax loss by approximately +/- $76,023.
Interest rate and credit risk
As at April 30, 2015, the Company
has minimal cash balances and no interest-bearing debt. The Company has no significant concentrations of credit risk arising from
operations. The Company’s current policy is to invest any significant excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit
certificates issued by reputable financial institutions with which it keeps its bank accounts and management believes the risk
of loss to be remote. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its
banks.
Receivables consist of goods and
services tax due from the Federal Government. Management believes that the credit risk concentration with respect to receivables
is remote.
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that
the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company manages liquidity risk through
the management of its capital structure and financial leverage as outlined in Note 11.

The Company’s objectives
when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern in order to pursue the development
of its technologies and to maintain a flexible capital structure for its projects for the benefit of its stakeholders. As the
Company is in the development stage, its principal source of funds is from the issuance of common shares.
In the management of capital, the
Company includes the share capital as well as cash, receivables, related party receivables and advances to equity accounted investee.
The Company manages the capital
structure and makes adjustments to it in light of changes in economic conditions and the risk characteristics of the underlying
assets. To maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may attempt to issue new shares, acquire or dispose of assets
or adjust the amount of cash and short-term investments.
The Company expects its capital
resources, which include a share offering and the sale of investee shares and warrants, will be sufficient to carry its research
and development plans and operations through its current operating period.
The Company is not subject to externally
imposed capital requirements and there were no changes in its approach to capital management during the year ended April 30, 2015.
There has been no significant subsequent
