Item 4.02 Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review
The following information was previously reported in our quarterly report on Form 10-QSB, which was filed on March 15, 2007. The restated financial statements for the quarter ended October 31, 2006 referenced herein were filed on Form 10-QSB/A on March 16, 2007.
On March 13, 2007, the Board of Directors determined that we need to restate our financial statements included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-QSB for the quarter ended October 31, 2006, and such financial statements should no longer be relied upon.
The purpose of the restatement of our financial statements for the period ended October 31, 2006 is to eliminate certain non-cash post reorganization, subsidiary level stock based compensation and consulting expenses. These items should have been eliminated on consolidation because the full cost was already included in the purchase price of the acquisition of the non-controlling (minority) interest of OQI Sask. The net result is to decrease the amount of stock based compensation and consulting expenses on our consolidated statements of operations and, as a result, to decrease our net loss and net loss per share.
Our Chief Financial Officer and our Audit Committee discussed the matters disclosed above with our independent accountant.
Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 17, 2007, the Company issued a press release pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, announcing a proposed unregistered offering of securities. The press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.
On April 18, 2007, the Company issued a press release pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, disclosing the terms of the proposed unregistered offering of securities previously announced on April 17, 2007. The press release is filed as Exhibit 99.2 to this report and is incorporated by reference herein.
