PART I


Item 1. Description of Business.


Introduction.


Avani International Group Inc. ("Avani" or "Company") was organized under the laws of the State of Nevada on November 29, 1995.


Since its inception, Avani constructed a bottling facility and engaged in the business of bottling and distributing a bottled water product under the trade name "Avani Water,” which is an oxygen enriched, purified bottled water produced from proprietary technology developed by the Company.


On July 15, 2005, the Company sold to an unaffiliated third party all of its assets comprising the Company’s 2-1/2 and 5 gallon water business in British Columbia, Canada which included certain of the equipment, business records including customer lists, brochures, and samples. In addition, on June 15, 2006, the Company sold to an unaffiliated  third party all of its real property including land, building and building improvements located at #328-17 Fawcett Road, Coquitlam, British Columbia (Canada) V3K 6V2. Since June 2006, the Company has suspended its bottling operations in Canada, and has moved it bottling equipment to Malaysia. Subject to raising additional capital, the Company intends to re-commence operations in the Far east, including  Malaysia.


Avani’s executive offices are located at 108-2419 Bellevue Avenue, West Vancouver, B.C. V7V 4T4 Canada, and its telephone number is (604) 913 2386.


General.


Avani was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 29, 1995 under the name Rainfresh Technologies, Inc. and changed its name to Avani International Group, Inc. on January 14, 1997. As of December 31, 2005, it has two wholly owned subsidiaries; Avani Oxygen Water Corporation (formerly Avani Water Corporation), and Avani International Marketing Corporation.  


Avani Oxygen Water Corporation was organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia (Canada) on December 8, 1995. Avani International Marketing Corp. was incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia on September 22, 1999.


Unless the context indicates otherwise, (i) all references to Avani or the Company herein include Avani International Group Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries to the exclusion of Avani O2 and (ii) all dollar amounts are expressed in US dollars. Any reference to Canadian dollars shall be indicated as "CDN.”


Following its incorporation, Avani commenced construction of its bottling facility in May 1996 which was completed in August 1996. In September 1996, Avani initiated the production, marketing and sale of its purified, oxygen enriched water under the brand name “Avani Water”. It utilizes a unique technology which injects oxygen into purified water producing an oxygen enriched, purified bottled water.

Avani has sold its product in the greater Vancouver metropolitan area and internationally, from time to time, mainly to the United States, Malaysia and Japan. The Company also provided home and business delivery of 2.5 and 5 gallon bottles in the Vancouver metropolitan area. The Company's sales nationally and internationally, except in Malaysia, have been limited. During 2004, substantially all of the Company’s distribution was made to Avani O2 Water Sdn. Bhd. (“Avani O2”).  As previously disclosed by the Company and as stated in greater detail below, during late 2004 and in 2005, the Company terminated its business relationships with Avani O2.


On July 15, 2005, the Company sold to an unaffiliated third party, certain assets relating to its water delivery and cooler rental business in the Vancouver area. The assets included the Company’s active customer accounts, three vehicles, and related inventory and equipment. The purchaser paid the Company the sum of $40,000 CDN, and assumed the payment of $89,070 CDN in prepaid water cooler and bottle deposits. The Company also agreed not to compete in any business in British Columbia (Canada) involving the production and sale of 2.5 and 5 gallon water bottles.  


On June 15, 2006, the Company sold all of its real estate and improvements located in Coquitlam, British Columbia to Pointer Holdings Ltd., an independent third party. The real estate consisted of approximately 14,000 square feet and was comprised of seven separate buildings. The purchase price was $1,226,000.00 CDN ($1,078,390USD). As of the stated date, the Company has suspended the manufacture and sale of its oxygenated water product. As of the date of this report, the Company does not expect to resume the manufacture and sale of its oxygenated water in Canada, however, it is currently exploring the possibility of resuming operations in other countries in the Far East, including Malaysia.


Prior Agreements with Avani O2.


The Company previously had entered two significant agreements with Avani O2 which are described below.


*

Joint Venture Agreement. On February 18, 2000, Avani and Avani O2 entered into a joint venture agreement, which was later amended on January 15, 2002, January 23, 2003, and April 19, 2004, respectively. The agreement, among other terms, granted Avani O2 licensing rights to establish a bottling facility in Malaysia. Under the agreement,  Avani O2 has the right of first refusal to produce and sell the Company’s proprietary water product on a worldwide basis, except for Canada. Avani contributed bottling equipment relating to its proprietary technology to the Malaysian bottling facility. In exchange, the Company received a 2% royalty from all licensed products and initially a 30% before tax profits interest generated by the bottling equipment. Under the April 2004 amendment, the 30% pre tax net profits interest was replaced with a rental fee payable by Avani O2 to Avani equal to 20,000 Malaysian Ringitt (RM) per each bottling line per month plus 0.19RM per 355ml bottle produced (or 0.00054RM per ml) retroactive to January 1, 2003. Each 3.8 RM equals $1.00 USD. As disclosed in greater detail herein, Avani O2 failed to make certain payments to the Company under the joint venture agreement. On July 1, 2005, the Company terminated the joint venture agreement with Avani O2, along with all licensing rights granted to Avani O2.


*

Asset Sale Agreement. On October 25, 2002, Avani, together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Avani Oxygen Water Corporation entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with Avani O2 (“Asset Sale Agreement”). Pursuant to the Asset Sale Agreement, Avani agreed to sell its real estate, located in Coquitlam, British Columbia,

4

and plant and equipment to Avani O2 for a total consideration of $1,650,000 Canadian Dollars (CDN), subject to other terms and conditions. The total purchase price was payable in 24 monthly instalments of $70,620.00 CDN commencing October 1, 2002 to and continuing on the first date of each month ending September 1, 2004; with a final payment of $220,686.00 CDN due on October 1, 2004. Interest accrued on the unpaid balance at the rate of 8% per annum calculated annually. Accrued and unpaid interest also was due and payable on October 1, 2004. Avani O2 made 24 monthly installments totaling of $1,584,000 CDN (or approximately $1,317,804 USD). However, on October 1, 2004, it failed to make the final payment, with accrued interest, totaling $220,686 CDN (or approximately $183,599 USD) under the Asset Sale Agreement. On December 13, 2004, Avani notified Avani O2 that it has terminated the Asset Sale Agreement, and that all payments were non-refundable under the terms of the Asset Sale Agreement.


Mr. Chin Yen Ong, who is the nephew of the Company’s President, was the largest shareholder of Avani 02 prior to July 1, 2005 when he divested the entirety of his Avani O2 stock. He remains a controlling shareholder of the Company.


As of December 31, 2006, Avani O2 owes the Company $77,386 plus interest of $10,255, and  $446,724 plus interest of $56,918 in royalty and net profits (and rentals fees), respectively, under the February 18, 2000 joint venture agreement, and $412,338 plus interest of $112,626 in past due payments for products sold to Avani O2.


In connection with the trade payables due to the Company, the Company filed a Garnishing Order Before Judgment against Avani O2 in the Supreme Court of British Columbia (Canada) and garnished $227,356 CDN of funds held by Avani O2 in a Canadian bank. On September 21, 2005, the court granted a default judgment in favor of the Company against Avani O2 for the total sum of $1,108,596 CDN. The amount includes $800,581 ($981,031 CDN) in amounts past due plus $105,733 ($127,565 CND .On October 25, 2005, the Court transferred to the Company the amount of $227,356.73 CDN which was previously garnished by the Company.


The parties continue to discuss a settlement of the outstanding amounts due the Company. However, the outcome of these discussions can not be predicted.


During fiscal 2005, the Company’s operations were adversely impacted by the loss of Avani O2’s business coupled with Avani 02’s non payment of trade payables and amounts due under the joint venture agreement.  A significant amount of time was devoted by management during fiscal 2005 towards attempting to negotiate and remedy the outstanding payables with Avani O2 without success. This management effort detracted from the Company’s ability to develop other international sales channels during the 2005 period.  As a result of its business dealings with the Malaysian based Avani O2, management recognized Malaysia as a strategic market for its oxygenated water product. Accordingly, during the end of fiscal 2005, the Company determined to wind down its operations in Canada by selling substantially all of its Canadian assets, and determined to re-locate of its operations in the Far East, including Malaysia. As previously disclosed, during 2005 and 2006, the Company divested itself of its local 5 and 2.5 gallon delivery business and its real estate located in Coquitlam, Canada.


As of the date of this report, the Company has not completed a plan of operations for the ensuing 12 month period, which would include a cost analysis of the funds required to re-establish its business in Malaysia. The Company expects that it will be required to raise additional funds in order to re-commence operations in Malaysia.  At this time, the Company has not entered into any binding arrangements regarding its intended Malaysian re-location. Moreover, the Company

5

does not expect any meaningful sales from its Canadian facility in the future. During 2007, the Company has not conducted any operations.


In addition to relocating its operations to Malaysia, the Company intends to aggressively explore other business opportunities for purposes of effecting a business acquisition or combination. At this time, the Company has no plan, proposal, agreement, understanding or arrangement to acquire or merge with any specific business or company. In implementing a structure for a particular business acquisition, the Company may become a party to a merger, consolidation, reorganization, joint venture, franchise or licensing agreement with another corporation or entity.  It also may purchase stock or assets of an existing business.  If a transaction is consumated, it is possible that the present management and shareholders of the Company will not be in control. .  If a transaction is consumated, it also is possible that the Company may be required to sell or spin-off its water business. Substantial dilution may result to existing shareholders upon consumation of such a business combination.


Regulation of Bottled Water Industry.


The Company's bottled water business is subject to various laws and regulations implemented by the Canadian government and local regulators, which require the Company, to obtain licenses for its business and equipment, to be subject to annual inspections, to comply with certain quality standards regarding the Company's bottling plant and equipment, and to continuously control the quality of water sold by the Company. In addition, certain other governments and states within the United States require the Company to obtain certification of its bottled water. The Company believes that it is currently in compliance with these laws and regulations and has passed all regulatory inspections necessary for it to sell its product in its current markets. In addition, the Company will seek approval from other governmental and state agencies in the event its geographical market expands. The Company believes that the cost of compliance with applicable governmental laws and regulations is not material to its business.


Bottled Water Market.


The growth of the world’s bottled water market has increased to 55 billion liters or 14.6 billion US gallons from 1997 to 2002 which total reached to 144 billion liters of bottled water in 2002. Zenith International projected that the continuous growth of the global bottled water consumption from 2002 to 2007 will jump to 200 billion liters.  The sizable contribution is made by the developing countries but the intensive growth of consumption is from the developed world, especially North America.


In 2002, the average consumption per capita is around 23 liters whereas it was only a little over 15 liters per person in 1997.  Particularly in Western Europe and North America, the annual bottled water consumption rates per person are four and three times respectively to the global average.


Germany, Italy and France are the larger population markets with a long established tradition of bottled water consumption.  In spite of the mature market, the consumption keeps on growing.  The average annual consumption per western European has increased from 20 liters in 1997 to more than 100 liters in 2002.  


The bottled water consumption rate per North American per year is just behind the Western Europeans.  The average annual consumption per North American was 15 liters in 1997 and jumped to 75 liters in the course of 5 years to 2002. In spite of long strong home and office

6

delivery market in the United States and Canada, the growth of convenience offerings sharply boosted up the volume sales from around 15 billion liters or 4 billion US gallons to nearly 24 billion liters or 6.3 billion US gallons in year 2002.  According to the Survey for the International Bottled Water Association in 2000, it concluded that bottled water (1.7 eight-ounce servings) is the third most consumed beverage based on average daily consumption, just behind filtered/non-filtered water (3.6 servings per day) and coffee (1.8 servings per day). Volumes in the 420 million citizen zone (including Mexico) stand at over 37 billion liters, giving an average of 89 liters per person in 2002.


Affluence rather than climate is the primary factor to determine the consumption of bottled water especially in the developing world.  Asian consumption increases from 4.4 liters per person per year in 1997 to 10 liters per capita per year in 2002 whereas Africans only consume 3 liters per person per year.  South American countries especially in Mexico and Brazil and oil-rich Middle Eastern countries are high bottled water consumers.     


The growth of 55 billion liters bottled water consumption is contributed by more than 30% from Asia Pacific, 15%-16% from each of North America, South America and Western Europe, 11% from Africa and the Middle East and 7.5% from Eastern Europe.   (Source: Bottled Water Reporter October/November 2003)


The oxygenated water market has been established in North America for a number of years.  Although it remains principally niche product which targets a limited consumer base, it is still growing in double digits in the region in which it was first pioneered. [Source: Zenith Strategic Review Report on Oxygenated Water – February 2003]


Oxygenated water has not seen an explosion of consumption from its early adoption years.  The Company believes that potential continues to exist for strong market growth fueled by health conscious consumers desiring premium beverages which are perceived to provide a clear functional benefit.  Sports and vitamin based drinks are increasing in popularity on the back of the booming sports and health supplement industry.  The calorie free nature of oxygenated water places it on a strong footing against sports drinks in particular.


The Company believes its product appeals to consumers of premium bottled water products and believes that its purity as well as its oxygen enrichment offers a distinct alternative to other premium bottled waters.



Product and Product Features.


In the past, the Company has manufactured and sold its purified, oxygen enriched water in 500 ml and 1.5 liter PET bottles and 2.5 and 5 gallon bottles under the trade name "Avani Water".  


Avani Water contains less than 2 parts per million (ppm) of total dissolved solids (tds). The tds level of Avani water contrasts with other more recognizable products such as Evian water at 309 ppm of tds and Perrier water at 505 ppm of tds. Many regional spring waters fall between 45 and 600 ppm of tds. Total dissolved solids include metals such as iron, copper, and lead, and organic substances such as herbicides and pesticides. The limited tds content of Avani Water is achieved through a comprehensive filtration process used by the Company. The Company believes that this filtration process together with other aspects of its bottling process (reverse osmosis, carbon filtration and oxygen enrichment) enables the Company to deliver a smoother, more polished water when compared to most other bottled waters.

7

The Company's unique oxygenation process yields a water containing 26.4 mg/L (or 26.4 ppm) of dissolved oxygen which is approximately three times higher than the oxygen content level in Evian brand water or ordinary tap water. Internal tests performed by the Company indicate that 24 hours after opening a sealed bottle of Avani Water, the oxygen content is reduced to approximately 24 ppm. Ordinary water and most bottled water (unopened) contain less than 9 ppm of oxygen.


During fiscal years ending December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company had no research and development costs.



Manufacturing Process.


The Company prior manufacturing process consisted of purchasing water from the local municipality which was piped to a holding tank located on premises. From the holding tank, the water travelled through the bottling process at constant pressure. The water initially passed through a 10 micron filter to remove the larger solids and then passes through a series of finer media filters to remove solids greater than 2 microns in size including inorganic metals such as iron, copper and lead. The water then passed through ozonation and carbon filtration processes. Ozonation is the strongest disinfectant and oxidizing agent available for water treatment and is a standard disinfectant for bottled water processing. Activated carbon filtration removed organic compounds such as pesticides and herbicides and associated tastes and odors. The water next passed through a seven membrane reverse osmosis process which removes particles greater than 0.001 micron. The water was demagnetized to remove remaining metals and is exposed to ultraviolet light for aseptic purposes. The water was then placed in a storage tank where high volumes of oxygen (O2) is injected into the purified water under pressure creating an oxygen enriched water product. Following the oxygen enrichment process, the water was piped to the "clean room." The "clean room" is a completely enclosed room with an over-balanced ventilation system which feeds filtered, sterile air to the room. There, the water product was automatically bottled in pre-rinsed bottles, capped and labeled. The bottles are directed to a case packer which automatically loads the bottles into shipping cases for distribution.  


For quality assurance purposes, the Company tested its product every two hours at various points in the bottling process, including its finished products.


The Company purchased the plant equipment in Canada in 1996. The bottling equipment which includes a conveyor system together with an automatic rinsing, filling, capping, labeling and casing system, allows production of approximately 100 to 130 bottles per minute of the 500 ml bottles, 30 to 40 bottles per minute for the 1.5 liter bottles and 300 bottles per hour of the five gallon bottle. The Company is able to produce either the 500 ml or 1.5 liter bottles simultaneously with the production of the 5 gallon bottles. The conversion time to one of the PET sizes from the other requires approximately one hour. As of December 31, 2006, the plant equipment has been disassembled and shipped to Malaysia.


The Company is a member in good standing of NSF International and the International Bottled Water Association.

Sales and Distribution.


The Company’s products have been sold in the greater Vancouver metropolitan area and internationally, from time to time, mainly in the United States, Malaysia, and Japan. During 2004, substantially all of the Company’s international sales were made through Avani O2 in Malaysia, and to a lesser extent through independent distributors located in Japan and Singapore. During 2005, no product sales were made to Avani O2. Substantially all of the Company sales during 2005, albeit limited,  were to the United States and Canada.


During 2004 and part of fiscal 2005, the Company provided delivery of  2.5 and 5 gallon bottles in the Vancouver metropolitan area to business and residential customers, and sells 500 ml and 1.5 liter PET bottles directly to retail outlets in the Vancouver area. During 2004, revenues from its 2.5 and 5 gallon bottles accounted for $203,192 or approximately 25% of total water sales. During 2005, revenues from this segment accounted for $123,124 or approximately 40% of total water sales. As previously disclosed, on July 15, 2005, the Company sold to an unaffiliated third party its local business of delivering 2.5 and 5 gallon bottles and renting water coolers.


As of the date of this report, the Company is currently exploring opportunities to manufacture its water product in Malaysia, among other business opportunities, and as such, has not developed a sales and marketing plan for 2007.


During January 2001, Avani contracted with Mr. Chin Yen Ong, as a consultant in Malaysia, to market and promote its products to the Asian market. In exchange, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Ong the sum of $10,000 CDN per month and to re-imburse all reasonable and customary business expenses not to exceed $1,000 per month. On July 15, 2002, as previously reported by the Company, an agreement was entered into with Mr. Ong pursuant to which the outstanding amount of $124,800 owed to Mr. Ong was cancelled in exchange for issuing 4,160,000 shares of common stock of Avani and stock purchase warrants to acquire 12,480,000 shares of common stock of Avani. Mr. Ong was a controlling shareholder of Avani O2 until July 1, 2005 when he divested himself of his entire equity position in Avani O2. As of December 31, 2005, Mr. Ong is a controlling stockholder of the Company. Mr. Ong is the nephew of the Company’s President. The agreement with Mr. Ong was terminated on January 1, 2005. As of December 31, 2006, the total outstanding consulting fee payable to Mr. Ong is $275,150 ($320,000 CDN).



Backlog.


The Company had no backlog for the year ended December 31 2006.  Historically, there has been no seasonal impact on the Company's worldwide sales.



Facilities.


Presently, the Company does not maintain any production facilities. Its offices consist of 120 square feet and under a month to month lease agreement. The annual lease payment is $4,761.


The Company also maintains an office in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia which it opened on August 1, 2006.  These offices consist of 1,200 square feet and under a month to month lease agreement. The annual lease payment is $3,158.

Competition.


The bottled water industry is extremely competitive and populated by a significant number of large regional, national, and international companies. Well established names in the industry, include Evian and Naya, as well as a significant number of regional products. Many of these companies maintain significantly greater resources (including financial, technical and personnel) in all aspects of business than those available to the Company. In addition, their products have achieved enormous consumer acceptance and loyalty. The principal competitive factors in the bottled water industry are price, taste, packaging, name recognition and water source. However, the Company believes that its smooth taste and its unique oxygen enrichment will enable it to sufficiently compete against other non-oxygenated products in the market.



Proprietary Rights.


The Company has not sought patent protection for its proprietary oxygen enrichment process, rather, it relies, to the extent it can, upon trade secrets to protect its proprietary process.



Environmental Laws.


Due to its non-operating status, the Company is not subject to any environmental laws. If the Company re-commences operations, it intends to comply with all governing laws affecting environmental issues.


Employees.


As of December 31, 2006, Avani has 2 employees in total, including the Company’s President. The Company has no collective bargaining agreements with its employees and believes its relations with its employees are good.



Item 2. Description of Property.


The Company maintains its offices at 108-2419 Bellevue Ave. West Vancouver, B.C. V7V 4T4 Canada. These offices consist of 120 square feet and are leased from a director of the Company under an oral lease agreement on a month to month basis. The annual lease payment is $4,761.


The Company also maintains an office consisting of 1,000 square feet in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia which it opened on August 1, 2006.  These offices are leased under oral lease arrangement on a month to month basis. The annual lease payment including utilities is $3,158.

Although there are no restrictions on the Company’s ability to declare or pay dividends, the Company has not declared or paid any dividends since our inception and do not anticipate paying dividends in the future.


The Company has no  Equity Compensation Plan Information  as of December 31, 2006.


The Company had no recent sales of unregistered securities not previously reported. In addition, during fiscal 2006, the Company made no purchases of equity securities meeting the requirements of Item 7.03 of Regulation S-B.


Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis.


The following discusses the results of operations and the financial position of the consolidated accounts of the Company, and its two wholly owned subsidiaries for the period ended December 31, 2006. As discussed above, during 2006, the Company has suspended the production and sale of its oxygenated water. As a result, the year to year comparisons are no longer meaningful in potentially assessing future operations of the Company.


Results of Operations.


Fiscal year end 2006 compared with Fiscal year end 2005.


Revenues for fiscal year ended December 31, 2006 were $99,307 representing a decrease of

11

$207,887 or 67.7% from revenues of $307,194 for the comparable period in 2005. The Company’s revenues in 2006 consisted solely of water sales (a decrease of $196,361 or 66.4% from $295,668 for the prior period). During the 2005 period, the Company had $11,526 in cooler rentals and equipment sales. The Company sold its local water delivery business, which included cooler sales and rentals, during the 2005 period, and thus had no such sales in 2006. During 2006, substantially all of its water sales were to Japan and the United States. During 2005, substantially all of its total water sales were national sales. The decrease in revenues for the 2006 period reflects the continued deterioration of the Company’s market for its water product, coupled with the sale of its local water delivery business which occurred in 2005. This market deterioration is  due in principal part to the Company’s inability to locate other meaningful sales channels in the overseas market to replace the sales experienced by the Company through Avani O2 during the 2003 and 2004 periods.  Since the termination of its marketing arrangements with Avani O2 during the 2005 period, the Company’s revenues have experienced significant erosion during each successive annual period.  


Cost of revenue for the 2006 period totaled $211,527 or 213% of total revenue contrasted with $349,948 or 114% of total revenue for the 2005 period. Cost of revenue in 2006 consisted of $143,525 in direct materials (bottled water, supplies, coolers and related equipment), labor, production overhead, and delivery costs (a decrease of $50,871 or 26.1% from $194,396 for the prior period) and $68,002 in depreciation (a decrease of $87,550 or 56.3% from $155,552 for the prior period). The decrease in cost of revenue as a percentage of sales for the 2006 period reflects the impact  of fixed costs on significantly reduced revenues. Gross loss for the 2006 period was $122,220 contrasted with $43,754 for the prior 2005 period for the reasons discussed above.


Operating expenses which include marketing expenses and general and administrative expenses for the 2006 period totaled $258,208 representing a decrease of $329,521 or 56.1% from $587,729 for the prior period. Marketing expenses totaled $51,230 for the 2006 period, representing a decrease of $12,803 or 20% from $64,033 for the prior period. The decrease in marketing expenses reflects the result of the Company’s past decision to reduce overall international marketing efforts. General and administrative expenses totaled $435,322 for the 2006 period, representing a decrease of $145,538 or 25.1% from $580,860 for the 2005 period. General and administrative costs in 2006 includes salaries to the Company’s President (of $72,000) and related expenses (of $76,764), salaries for other employees, and other office expenses. No research and development costs were incurred in 2006 or 2005. During 2006, the Company had a gain on the sale of assets in the amount of $253,129 from the sale of its real estate, and in 2005, the Company had a gain on the sale of its water delivery business in the amount of $109,024. The Company experienced a foreign exchange loss of $24,865 in 2006 compared with $51,860 in 2005. The decrease in 2006 is due to the reduction in overseas sales compared with the prior period.


Interest expense on outstanding loans totaled $7,054 for the 2006 period, representing an increase of $451 or 6.8% from $6,603 for the prior period. The interest expense in Canadian Dollars is the same for both periods, however, the decrease in US Dollars reflects the strengthening of the US Dollar during the 2006 period. Loss from the discontinued operations in 2005 which consists of  a write off of outstanding payables due from Avani O2 and equipment held by Avani O2 was $710,591.  No comparable loss occurred in 2006. Miscellaneous income which represents unclaimed customer security deposits of $56,516 for the 2006 period representing a decrease of $4,762 from $51,754 for the prior year.


Net loss before extra-ordinary income was $321,046 for the 2006 period compared with a net loss of $1,295,923 for the 2005 fiscal period for the reasons discussed above.

12

In 2005, the Company recorded an extra-ordinary gain of $1,361,995 relating to the payments received from Avani O2 under the Asset Sale Agreement which were forfeited by Avani O2 under the terms of the agreement. No comparable gain occurred in 2006.  Net loss for the 2006 period was $321,046 compared with a gain for the 2005 period of $66,072. Foreign currency adjustment in 2006 was $46,038 compared with $12,272 for the 2005 period. Comprehensive loss for the 2006 period was $275,008 compared with $78,344 for the 2005 period for the reasons discussed above. Gain per share, basic and diluted, was ($0.02) for the 2006 period contrasted with $0.01 per share.


Liquidity and Capital Resources.


Working capital as of December 31, 2006 was ($38,718) compared with working capital as of December 31, 2005 of $689,799. The increase in working capital for 2006 reflects the gain on the sale of the Company’s real estate which occurred in 2006.


Total assets as of December 31, 2006  were $1,017,054 a decrease of $213,080 from total assets of $1,230,134  as of December 31, 2005.


Property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $20,781 on December 31, 2006. Property, plant and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, totaled $916,246 on December 31, 2005. The decrease is due to the sale of the Company’s real estate which occurred in 2006.


The Company continues to experience significant losses from operations. The Company is uncertain as to when it will achieve profitable operations. As discussed herein, the Company has sold its real estate located in Canada and intends to re-locate is water manufacturing business to Malaysia or another country in the Far East, however, the locations has not been determined at this time. In order to re-commence operations, the Company expects that it will need to raise additional working capital to support its operations. At this time, the Company can not predict the amount of funds required, nor can it predict whether it will be successful in raising such funds.  


If the Company is required to raise additional funds, it likely will attempt to do so pursuant to the private placement of debt or equity. The private placement of its capital stock may result in significant dilution to shareholders (See disclosure relating to cautionary statements below). At this time, the Company has no commitments for any such financing, and no assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in these endeavors. If the Company is unsuccessful in raising required funds, it will have a material adverse impact on the Company and its ability to conduct its business in the future. Accordingly, the Company’s financial statements contain note disclosures describing the circumstances that lead to doubt over the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern. In their report on the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006, respectively, the Company’s independent registered accountants included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as going concern.


Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement


As the Company has adopted FIN 46R effective January 1, 2004, there are no off-balance sheet arrangement at the end of the 2006 fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Policies.


Revenue Recognition.   Revenue on sales of bottled water, coolers and equipment is recognized when the products are delivered and title transfers to customers. Sales terms generally do not permit a right of return.  Revenue from leasing of water coolers and filters is accounted for as operating leases and, accordingly, rental income is reported over the terms of the leases.


Deposits received for bottles and coolers are accrued as liabilities until refunded upon return of bottles and coolers.  Freight charges billed to customers are included in Revenue while associated freight costs are included in Cost of Revenue.



Stock-based Compensation.  The Company applies SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation for Non-Employees” and has elected to continue to measure compensation cost for employees under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations.  Generally, under APB 25, compensation cost is recognized for stock options granted to employees at prices below the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.


SFAS No. 123, requires the Company to provide pro-forma information regarding net income as if compensation cost for the Company's stock options granted to employees had been determined in accordance with the fair value based method.  The value of stock options granted to consultants is recognized in these consolidated financial statements as compensation expense using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Such compensation is amortized over the contract services period or, if none exists, from the date of grant until the options vest.  Compensation associated with unvested options is remeasured on each balance sheet date using the Black Scholes option pricing model.


SFAS 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure“ amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 so that entities will have to make more prominent disclosures regarding the pro forma effects of using the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation, Accordingly, the pro-forma information as described in SFAS 123 are disclosed in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 9 of the financial statements.


Valuation and Disposition of Long-lived Assets.  The Company evaluates the future recoverability of its property, plant and equipment and trademarks and licenses in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets".  SFAS No. 144 requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to such assets.  It requires that those long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are to be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost of sale whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations.  No impairment was required to be recognized during the periods presented in these consolidated financial statements


SFAS No. 144 also requires that long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale continue to be classified as assets held-and-used until such time that all of the criteria for classifying assets as held-for-sale are met. Accordingly, those long-lived assets that are included in the sale agreement with Avani O2 are continued to be classified as Property, Plant and Equipment on the consolidated balance sheet.

New Accounting Pronouncements.  


On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS No. 123(R) would require the Company to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and record such expense in its consolidated financial statements. In addition, SFAS No. 123(R) will require additional accounting related to the income tax effects and additional disclosure regarding the cash flow effects resulting from share-based payment arrangements. For public entities that file as a small business issuer, SFAS No. 123(R) is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2005.


In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151 “Inventory Costs: an Amendment of ARB 43, Chapter 4” which clarifies the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material (spoilage).  SFAS No. 151 requires that these items be recognized as a current period charge regardless of whether they meet the criterion specified in ARB 43.  In addition, this statement requires the allocation of fixed production overheads to the facilities.  SFAS No. 151 is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005.


In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 to amend Opinion 29 by eliminating the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance.  A non-monetary exchange is defined to have commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange.


The Company is assessing the effect that the implementation of these new standards will have on the consolidated financial statements.


Disclosure Regarding Forward Looking and Cautionary Statements.


Forward Looking Statements. Certain of the statements contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB include "forward looking statements" within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"). All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this Form 10-KSB regarding the Company's financial position, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations and capital expenditures, and other matters, are forward looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon management's expectations of future events. Although the Company believes the expectations reflected in such forward looking statements are reasonable, there can be no assurances that such expectations will prove to be correct. Additional statements concerning important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company's expectations ("Cautionary Statements") are disclosed below in the Cautionary Statements section and elsewhere in this Form 10-KSB. All written and oral forward looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on behalf of the Company subsequent to the date of this Form 10-KSB are expressly qualified in their entirety by the Cautionary Statements.


Cautionary Statements. Certain risks and uncertainties are inherent in the Company's business. In addition to other information contained in this Form 10-KSB, the following Cautionary Statements should be considered when evaluating the forward looking statements contained in this Form 10-KSB:

15

1. UNCERTAIN FUTURE OF COMPANY’S BUSINESS. As mentioned herein,  the Company has suspended its Canadian operations, and has determined to re-locate its business to Malaysia, or another country in the Far East. While the Company believes that significant demand exists in Malaysia for its oxygenated water, since its inception, the Company, except for a brief period in which it sold products through Avani O2, has been unable to establish any meaningful sales of its water product. Accordingly, the Company cannot predict with certainty the future of its business.


2. THE COMPANY’S ACCOUNTANTS HAVE ISSUED A GOING CONCERN OPINION AND THE COMPANY HAS LIMITED WORKING CAPITAL, NEGATIVE NET WORTH AND SUBSTANTIAL CURRENT LOSSES. To date, the Company has met its working capital requirements through the private placement of its securities and loans.  To support its operations and planned re-location, the Company will require additional funds as described in greater detail below.  Since its inceptions, the Company has not generated any significant revenue other than through Avani O2 and has experienced substantial losses.  The Company also has very limited working capital and, as at December 31, 2006 recorded an accumulated deficit of $8,012,065. For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company reported a comprehensive loss of approximately $275,008.


3. THE COMPANY CAN NOT PREDICT WHETHER IT WILL BE PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE. If the Company re-locates its water business in Malaysia, in order for it to be successful, the Company, among other factors,  will be required to establish and maintain meaningful channels of distribution. The Company can not predict whether it will be successful in developing and maintaining its new business.


4. NEED FOR ADDITIONAL CAPITAL/SIGNIFICANT DILUTION. The Company has not completed its plan of operations for the next 12 months. The Company will need  additional capital in order to re-establish and then maintain operations of its water business. No assurances can be given that the Company will be successful in raising the capital necessary for both near term and future operations. In addition, if the Company is successful in raising additional funds, it is likely that any such additional capital will be in the form of the sale and issuance of the Company’s common stock. The sale and issuance of common stock may substantially increase the number of shares of common stock outstanding and cause significant dilution to shareholders. If the Company is unsuccessful in raising additional capital, it likely will preclude the Company’s ability to re-commence and maintain operations in Malaysia.


5. THE COMPANY MAY CONSULTANTS AND EMPLOYEES IN STOCK AS CONSIDERATION FOR THEIR SERVICES WHICH MAY RESULT IN STOCKHOLDER DILUTION.


Due to the Company’s limited cash availability, the Company has in the past and may in the future pay consultants and employees in stock, warrants or options to purchase shares of our common stock rather than cash.  As of the date of this filing, the Company owes its President the sum of $521,191 in past due compensation and re-imbursements. Payments for services in stock may materially and adversely affect the Company’s stockholders by diluting the value of outstanding shares of our common stock.   


6. SEEKING OTHER BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES. As a result of the termination of its business relationship with Avani O2, the Company is seeking to acquire other business opportunities by merger, share exchange or other combination. However, at this time, the Company has no plan, proposal, agreement, understanding or arrangement to acquire or merge

16

with any specific business or company, and Company has not identified any specific business or company for investigation and evaluation. In the event the Company does acquire a business opportunity, a change of control of the Company may result. The change of control may occur through the issuance of common stock to the owners of the acquired company which may exceed greater than fifty percent of the Company’s total issued and outstanding capital stock. Generally, the amount of stock issued in such a transaction results in significant dilution to existing shareholders. In addition, the officers and directors of the acquired company may replace part or all of the existing officers and directors. The Company cannot predict when or if an acquisition will occur, or if it does occur, whether it will result in profitable operations.


7. LIMITED DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS. As of December 31, 2006, the Company has limited distribution channels in its markets. Following the relocation of its operations in Malaysia, it will be required to seek a new distribution base for its product. Although the Company continues to seek distributors to advance sales, to date it has been unsuccessful in establishing any meaningful distributor arrangements.


8. COMPETITION. The bottled water industry is extremely competitive and populated by a significant number of large regional, national, and international companies. Many of these companies maintain significantly greater resources (including financial, technical and personnel) in all aspects of business than those available to the Company. In addition, many of its competitors’ products have achieved enormous consumer acceptance and loyalty. The principal competitive factors in the bottled water industry are price, taste, packaging, name recognition and water source. Although the Company believes that its smooth taste and its unique oxygen enrichment offers a competitive distinction in the bottled water market, to date the Company has been unable to effectively compete in this market.


9. PENNY STOCK REGULATION. The Company's common stock is deemed a "penny stock" under federal securities laws. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations that define a "penny stock" generally to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These regulations impose additional sales practice requirements on any broker/dealer who sells such securities to other than established investors and accredited investors. For transactions covered by this rule, the broker/dealer must make certain suitability determinations and must receive the purchaser's written consent prior to purchase. Additionally, any transaction may require the delivery prior to sale of a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission. Disclosure also is required to be made of commissions payable to the broker/dealer and the registered representative, as well as current quotations for the securities.  Finally, monthly statements are required to be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stock held in the account of the customers and information on the limited market in penny stocks. These requirements generally are considered restrictive to the purchase of such stocks, and may limit the market liquidity for such securities.


10. VOLATILE PRICES AND LIMITED VOLUME FOR THE COMPANY’S COMMON STOCK. Historically, there has been a limited trading market for the Company’s common stock. The price of the common stock has been extremely volatile. Due to the low price of the common stock, many brokerage firms may refrain or be prohibited from trading in the Company’s common stock. This could have an adverse effect on sustaining any market for the Company’s common stock. Consequently, shareholders may not be able to sell their shares at a desirable time, if at all.




17

11. THE COMPANY DOES NOT INTEND TO PAY DIVIDENDS ON ITS COMMON

STOCK.  The Company has never declared or paid dividends on its common stock.  It intends to retain future earnings to develop and commercialize its products and therefore it does not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.


Item 7. Financial Statements.


The Financial Statements that constitute Item 7 of this Annual Report on Form 10-KSB are included in Item 13 below.



Item 8. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.


None.



Item 8A. Controls and Procedures.


Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Company’s President and Principal Financial Officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operations of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of December 31, 2006 for the Form 10-KSB. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s  President and Principal Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the material information required to be included in our Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable SEC rules and forms relating to the Company’s reporting obligations, and was made known to them by others within the Company, particularly during the period when this report was being prepared. In addition, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter of 2006 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the small business issuer's internal control over financial reporting.


Item 8B. Other Information.

None

The Company maintains its offices at 108-2419 Bellevue Ave. West Vancouver, B.C. V7V 4T4 Canada. These offices consist of 120 square feet and are leased from a director of the Company under an oral lease agreement on a month to month basis. The annual lease payment is $4,761.


As disclosed herein, the Company has entered into two significant agreements with Avani O2 (See “Item 1 Description of Business – Prior Agreements with Avani O2” for a detailed discussion of these agreements). On October 25, 2002, the Company entered into a Sale and Purchase Agreement with Avani O2, pursuant to which, the Company agreed to sell to Avani O2 all of the assets of its subsidiary consisting of its plant, equipment, and real estate to Avani O2 for a total consideration of $1,650,000 Canadian Dollars (CDN) (or $1,272,657 USD at year end exchange rates). In February 2000, the Company entered into an agreement with Avani O2, pursuant to which Avani O2 received, among other rights, the right and license to construct manufacturing facilities, and to produce and sell the Company’s proprietary water product worldwide, subject to certain conditions of the agreement. The rights granted Avani O2 are exclusive worldwide except for Canada and worldwide sales from the Company’s Vancouver operations. Mr. Chin Yen Ong, a significant shareholder of the Company, is a director and a 30% shareholder of Avani O2. Mr Ong also is the nephew of the Company’s President.


On May 13, 2002, the Company completed private placements with Mao-Lin Hsiao, and Hsien-Ho Lee pursuant to which such parties purchased 1,575,017 and 950,000 shares of common stock of the Company, respectively, at a price per share equal to $0.03. The total consideration received by the Company was $75,751. In addition, the Company issued to Mao Lin Hsiao and Hsien Ho Lee stock purchase warrants to acquire 4,725,051 and 2,850,000 shares of common stock of the Company, respectively. The stock purchase warrants are exercisable at $0.03 per share on or before May 13, 2004, $0.05 per share on or before May 13, 2006, and $0.07 per share on or before May 13, 2007. In connection with the transactions, the Company paid Chin Yen Ong a finder’s fee equal to 10% of the stock and stock purchase warrants received by the investors as described above. Mr. Ong received 252,502 shares of common stock and stock purchase warrants to acquire 757,506 shares of common stock of the Company. The stock purchase warrants are exercisable on the same terms and conditions as those of the investors.

22

During January 2001, the Company contracted with Mr. Ong, as a consultant in Malaysia, to market and promote the Company’s products to the Asian market. In exchange, the Company has contracted to pay the consultant the sum of $10,000 CDN per month and to re-imburse all reasonable and customary business expenses not to exceed $1,000 per month. On July 15, 2002, as reported by the Company, an agreement was entered into with Mr. Ong pursuant to which the outstanding amount of $124,800 owed Mr. Ong was cancelled in exchange for 4,160,000 shares of common stock of the Company and stock purchase warrants to acquire 12,480,000 shares of common stock of the Company. As of December 31, 2005, Mr. Ong is a controlling stockholder of the Company, and formerly was a controlling shareholder of Avani O2. Mr. Ong is the nephew of the Company’s President. The agreement with Mr. Ong was terminated on January 1, 2005. As of December 31, 2005, the total outstanding consulting fee payable to Mr. Ong is $275,150 ($320,000 CDN).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF

AVANI INTERNATIONAL GROUP INC.

(A NEVADA CORPORATION)


We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Avani International Group Inc. as of December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.  


We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.


In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Avani International Group Inc. as of December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005, and the results of its operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and its cash flows for the two years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.


The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations. This raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are described in Note 1. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Avani International Group Inc.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(Expressed in US Dollars)

December 31, 2006 and 2005

Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements are expressed in US dollars and have been prepared in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.  Included in the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 are the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (Avani Oxygen Water Corporation and Avani International Marketing Corporation).  

 

All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.  The Company’s previous business combinations were accounted for using the purchase method.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could materially differ from these estimates.

Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, due from related party, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, debts payable and obligations payable.  Unless otherwise noted, it is management's opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest, currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.  With the exception of the portion of obligation payable related to the assignment of net profits,  the fair value of financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to the immediate or short term maturity of these financial instruments.  The carrying amount for the portion of obligations payable related to the assignment of net profits interest was not practicable to determine.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

The parent company's functional currency is the United States dollar, however, the functional currency of the consolidated entity is the Canadian dollar as substantially all of the Company's operations have been in Canada.  The Company uses the United States dollar as its reporting currency for consistency with other registrants of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").

33/F-6



Avani International Group Inc.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(Expressed in US Dollars)

December 31, 2006 and 2005

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions - Continued

Assets and liabilities of the subsidiary denominated in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate in effect at the period end.  The Statement of Operations is translated at the average rates of exchange prevailing during the periods.  Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates from period to period are included in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss account in Stockholders' Equity (Capital Deficit).

 

Transactions undertaken in currencies other than the functional currency of the entity are translated using the exchange rate in effect as of the transaction date. Any exchange gains and losses are included in Other Income (Expenses) on the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue on sales of bottled water, coolers and equipment is recognized when the products are delivered and title transfers to customers. Sales terms generally do not permit a right of return.  Revenue from leasing of water coolers and filters is accounted for as operating leases and, accordingly, rental income is reported over the terms of the leases.

 

Deposits received for bottles and coolers are accrued as liabilities until refunded upon return of bottles and coolers.

 

Freight charges billed to customers are included in Revenue while associated freight costs are included in Cost of Revenue.

  




Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Avani International Group Inc.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(Expressed in US Dollars)

December 31, 2006 and 2005

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company records an allowance for doubtful accounts based on specifically identified amounts that are believed to be uncollectible and all receivables that are outstanding for more than 120 days.  The criteria for allowance provision are determined based on historical experience and the Company’s assessment of the general financial conditions affecting its customer base.  If the Company’s actual collections experience changes, revisions to the allowance may be required.

Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) and market.  Market is determined based on the net realizable value of finished goods and the replacement cost for supplies.  Inventory is comprised of small bottles, packaging containers, supplies and water coolers for resale.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is recorded at half the annual rate in the year such assets are acquired and is not recorded in the year of disposition.  Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the assets at the following annual rates:

 

Coolers  

-

20%

Plant equipment

-

10%

Office furniture and equipment

-

10% to 20%

Building

-

2.5%

Vehicle

-

10%

Other Assets

Trademarks and licenses are recorded at cost and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of 10 years in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the provisions of SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires the Company to recognize tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's financial statements or tax returns using the liability method.  Under this method, tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided for all deferred tax assets when it is more-likely-than-not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(Expressed in US Dollars)

December 31, 2006 and 2005

Loss Per Share

Loss per share is computed in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share".  Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year.  Diluted earnings per share reflect the potential dilution of securities that could share in earnings of an entity.  In a loss year, potentially dilutive common shares are excluded from the loss per share calculation as the effect would be anti-dilutive.  Basic and diluted loss per share are the same for the years presented.

 

For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, potentially dilutive common shares (relating to options and warrants outstanding at year end) totalling 21,812,557 (2005 – 26,352,557) were not included in the computation of loss per share because their effect was anti-dilutive.

Comprehensive Income

The Company has adopted SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances.  The Company is disclosing this information on its Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss.  Comprehensive income (loss) is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes (loss) to stockholders' equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company applies SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation for Non-Employees” and has elected to continue to measure compensation cost for employees under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations.  

 

SFAS No. 123, requires the Company to provide pro-forma information regarding net income as if compensation cost for the Company's stock option plan had been determined in accordance with the fair value based method.  The value of stock options granted to consultants is recognized in these consolidated financial statements as compensation expense using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Such compensation is amortized over the contract services period or, if none exists, from the date of grant until the options vest.  Compensation associated with unvested options is remeasured on each balance sheet date using the Black Scholes option pricing model.

Stock Based Compensation - Continued

SFAS 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation—Transition and Disclosure“ amends the disclosure requirements of SFAS 123 so that entities will have to make more prominent disclosures regarding the pro forma effects of using the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation.

The Company applies Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25 and related interpretations in accounting for stock options granted to employees.  Generally, under APB No. 25 compensation expense is recognized for the difference between the market price of the underlying stock and the exercise price of the stock options.  Accordingly, no compensation has been recognized in connection with options granted to employees as the exercise price of these options is greater than the market price of the underlying stock. Had compensation cost been determined based upon the fair value of the stock options at the grant date consistent with the fair value method prescribed in Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (“SFAS”) No. 123, (based on a dividend yield of Nil; risk-free interest rate of 0.57%; expected volatility of 289%; and expected life of 2 years) the Company's net loss and loss per share would have been increased as follows:

Valuation and Disposition of Long-lived Assets

The Company evaluates the future recoverability of its property, plant and equipment and trademarks and licenses in accordance with SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets".  SFAS No. 144 requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to such assets.  It requires that those long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale are to be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost of sale whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued

38

operations.  No impairment was required to be recognized during the periods presented in these consolidated financial statements.

December 31, 2006 and 2005

Change in Accounting Policy

In January 2003, the FASB issued FIN No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB 51." The primary objectives of FIN No. 46 are to provide guidance on the identification of entities for which control is achieved through means other than voting rights (variable interest entities or "VIEs") and how to determine when and which business enterprise should consolidate the VIE. This new model for consolidation applies to an entity for which either: (1) the equity investors do not have a controlling financial interest; or (2) the equity investment at risk is insufficient to finance that entity’s activities without receiving additional subordinated financial support from other parties. In addition, FIN No. 46 requires that both the primary beneficiary and all other enterprises with a significant variable interest in a VIE make additional disclosures.  As amended in December 2003, the effective dates of FIN No. 46 for public entities that are small business issuers, as defined ("SBIs"), are as follows: (a) For interests in special-purpose entities: periods ended after December 15, 2003; (b) For all VIEs created before January 31, 2003: periods ending after December 15, 2004; and (c) For all VIEs created after January 31, 2003, FIN 46 is applicable immediately. The December 2003 amendment of FIN No. 46 also includes transition provisions that govern how an SBI which previously adopted the pronouncement (as it was originally issued) must account for consolidated VIEs.   

 

Avani O2 Water Sdn. Bhd. (“Avani O2”) was incorporated in July 1999 in Malaysia mainly to explore the opportunities of developing and marketing bottled water in South East Asia. In 2000, Avani O2 entered into a joint-venture agreement to establish a bottling facility in Malaysia and granted the world-wide rights and licenses, except in Canada, to access and use for all purposes the Company’s technology of producing oxygen enriched bottled water.  

 

Avani O2 was considered a VIE of the Company because, pursuant to the joint-venture agreement, the Company was entitled to, among other things, receive a 2% royalty on all revenue from all licensed products and 30% of the before tax

39

profits generated by the bottling line contributed by the Company to Avani O2 (replaced by a rental fee as amended in 2004) and to appoint two of the three directors on the Board of Directors of Avani O2.  As a result, it was determined that the equity investors of Company did not have a controlling financial interest in the Company and the Company was the primary beneficiary of Avani O2, the VIE. According to the above-noted requirements, the Company commenced consolidating Avani O2 in 2004.

Effective July 1, 2005, as a result of the Company terminating the royalty and net profits agreement with Avani O2, changes in Avani O2’s equity holding, and other maters, management of the Company determined that the Company no longer meets the criteria of being a primary beneficiary (as described under FIN No. 46R, “Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB51”) of Avani O2 and as such was no longer required to consolidate the financial information of Avani O2. As a result, the assets and liabilities of Avani O2 and results of operations for the year for the periods contained in this report no longer form part of these consolidated financial statements.

In addition, in connection with a dispute between the Company and Avani O2 over, among other matters, payment of accounts owing to the Company (which at December 31, 2004, were eliminated on consolidation), the Company obtained a Garnishing Order against Avani O2 in the amount of Approximately $704,855 (CDN $863,728). On October 25, 2005, as ruled by the Court, an amount of approximately $195,542 (CDN$227,357) was received by the Company, garnished from Avani O2’s bank account, as partial payment for Avani O2’s balances owing to the Company. While management continues its best efforts to collect all amounts owing from Avani O2, as a result of the difficulties that have arisen in the past with the collection of these accounts receivable, management has decided to write off all receivables due from Avani O2 (excluding the garnished amounts received on October 25, 2005), which has resulted in a charge to discontinued operations of $427,906 for the year ended December 31, 2005 (Note 7).

New Accounting Pronouncements

On December 16, 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment.” SFAS No. 123(R) would require the Company to measure all employee stock-based compensation awards using a fair value method and record such expense in its consolidated financial statements. In addition, SFAS No. 123(R) will require additional accounting related to the income tax effects and additional disclosure regarding the cash flow effects resulting from share-based payment arrangements. For public entities that file as a small business issuer, SFAS No. 123(R) is effective for the first interim or annual reporting period beginning after December 31, 2005.

 

In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153 to amend Opinion 29 by eliminating the exception for non-monetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of non-monetary assets that do not have commercial substance.  A non-monetary exchange is defined to have commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange.

 

The Company is assessing the effect that the implementation of these new standards will have on the consolidated  financial statements.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Expressed in US Dollars)

December 31, 2006 and 2005

1.

Nature of Business and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

 

Avani International Group Inc. (the "Company"), a Nevada corporation, incorporated on November 29, 1995, has constructed a bottling facility in Coquitlam, British Columbia and has been engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and distributing an oxygen enriched, purified bottled water under the trade name "Avani Water" for domestic and export sales.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The Company has incurred losses to date of $8,012,065 which includes a comprehensive loss of $275,008 for the current year.  The continuation of the Company is dependent upon the continuing financial support of creditors and stockholders, refinancing debts payable, obtaining additional long-term financing, as well as achieving and maintaining a profitable level of operations.  The Company plans to raise additional equity and debt capital as necessary to finance the operating and capital requirements of the Company.  Amounts raised will be used to provide financing for the marketing and promotion of the Company's export business and for other working capital purposes.  While the Company is expending its best efforts to achieve the above plans, there is no assurance that any such activity will generate sufficient funds for operations.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might arise from this uncertainty.

During the year ended December 31, 2002, as discussed above, the Company entered into an joint venture agreement with Avani O2 ("the Licensee") to establish a bottling facility in Malaysia, and granted the Licensee the first right of refusal of the exclusive worldwide (except Canada) rights and licenses to the Company's oxygen enrichment technology.  The Company is also allowing the Licensee the use of approximately $208,481 net of depreciation (2004 - $237,314), of bottling and processing equipment, located in Malaysia, required to produce the product.  In exchange, the Company is entitled to receive a 2% royalty on all revenue from all licensed products and 30% of the before-tax profits generated by the contributed bottling line (which was replaced by a rental fee as amended in 2004).  These transactions were eliminated upon consideration.  During 2002, the Company assigned certain of its rights to the Net Profits Interest to certain lenders in satisfaction of outstanding loans (Note 7).  

 

In October 2002, the Company entered into an Asset Sale Agreement with Avani O2 whereby the Company agreed to sell its Canadian building and related land in Canada and production equipment in Canada and Malaysia to Avani O2 with a carrying amount of approximately $1,065,000 for proceeds of CDN$1,650,000 (US$1,418,745 at the December 31, 2005 year end exchange rates) plus interest charges at 8% per annum and applicable taxes.  The proceeds were to be received over two years in twenty-four monthly installments of CDN$70,620 (US$58,752) and a final payment of CDN$220,686 (US$183,600) due October 1, 2004.  Total installment of US$1,360,275 (CDN $1,582,000) was received by the Company by the year ended December 31, 2004. Avani O2 failed to make the final payment of CDN$220,686 (US$183,600) even after an extension was provided, and the Company terminated the agreement. (Note 13). As a result, the installment of $1,360,275 was forfeited and recorded as an extra-ordinary income for the year ended December 31, 2005.

The trademark and license is carried on the consolidated balance sheet at net book value of $21,507 (2004 - $27,131) which is calculated based on the original cost of the asset at $53,631 net of accumulated amortization of $32,124.  Amortization expense of $5,360 was charged to the Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss in 2005 (2005 – $5,536) and annual amortization of approximately $5,300 is estimated to be expensed in each of the next five years.

During 2002, the Company agreed with a number of lenders to fully settle the loan payables totaling $475,771.  Pursuant to the agreements, the Company assigned a fully reserved account receivable in the amount of $200,944 to certain lenders in complete satisfaction of $190,026 of the loan payable.  In addition to the assignment of the account receivable, the Company also assigned its before tax net profits interest in production equipment located in Malaysia (the "Net Profits Interest”) to two of the lenders  Pursuant to an amendment to the agreement, the assignment of Net Profits Interest to these lenders will revert back to the Company when the lenders have received from such interest, an amount equal to $285,745, the principal amount of the cancelled loans.  The Company has classified amounts related to these assignments of Net Profits Interests as obligations payable and will record reductions in this account as Net Profits Interests are received by the lenders.  The Net Profits Interest was replaced by a rental fee payable by Avani O2 to the Company in 2004.

c)

During the year ended December 31, 2003, the Company granted 1,100,000 stock options to certain consultants as compensation for consulting services.  Each option entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at $0.05 per share during the first year and $0.30 per share in the second year.  Of these options, 30% vested immediately with the remaining 70% to be vested on the one year anniversary of the date of grant. The Company also granted 500,000 fully vested options to a consultant, which entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company's common stock at $0.05 per share for a three-year period. On November 18, 2002, the Company granted 300,000 stock options to a consultant as compensation for consulting services.  Each option entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at $0.05 per share during the first year and $0.30 per share in the second year. Of these options, 30% vested immediately with the remaining 70% to be vested one year after the date of grant. The above described options expired during fiscal  2006.

  

The Company follows SFAS No.123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which requires compensation cost associated with stock options granted to other than employees to be valued based on the fair value of the stock options, where such fair value was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Unvested stock options are remeasured on each balance sheet date for the purpose of determining stock option compensation.  The weighted average grant date fair value of the options granted during 2003 ($0.04 per option) was estimated using the following weighted average assumptions and remeasured in 2004:

Compensation expense was amortized over the vesting period and expenses totaling $Nil for the year ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, and $83,363 for the year ended December 31, 2004, were included in general and administration expenses.

  

On June 10, 2003, the Company granted 1,950,000 stock options to Company employees and directors. Of this amount, 1,150,000 stock options have an exercise period of two years.   Each option entitles the holder to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at $0.05 per share during the first year and $0.30 per share in the second year. Only 30% of the options granted during the period are exercisable immediately with the remaining 70% to be vested on the one year anniversary of the date of grant. Another 800,000 fully vested stock options have an exercisable period of 3 years and an exercise price of $0.05 per share. The above described options expired during fiscal 2006.

As there was no stock-based compensation awarded to employees during the year ended December 31, 2005, the pro-forma information for the period ended December 31, 2006 equals the information as reported on the statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
