Note 1 – The Company and Nature of Operations

Ikona Gear International, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 20, 2000. The Company is in business to develop and commercialize a unique, patented gearing technology. The Company is commercializing its patented technology in applications it establishes through developing joint development alliances and entering into licensing agreements with strategic partners in vertical industrial markets. The Company is considered to be a development stage company as it has not generated significant revenues from operations.

Effective October 30, 2003, the Company consummated an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) pursuant to which it acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Ikona Gear USA, Inc. (“Ikona USA”). Under the terms of the Agreement, the shareholders of Ikona USA received, pro rata, an aggregate of 15,041,633 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for 100% of the outstanding shares of Ikona USA. A principal shareholder of the Company surrendered for cancellation 14,500,000 shares of common stock, which resulted in the Ikona USA shareholders acquiring shares representing approximately 70% of the total issued and outstanding shares of the Company. As a result, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of Ikona USA.

The consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity (deficiency) and cash flows of the Company prior to October 30, 2003, are those of Ikona USA. The Company’s consolidated date of incorporation is considered to be August 16, 2001, the date of inception of Ikona USA.

On October 31, 2003, the Company incorporated a wholly-owned subsidiary, Ikona Gear Corp., a British Columbia Corporation.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America for interim financial information. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnote disclosures required for an annual set of financial statements prepared under United States generally accepted accounting principles. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of February 28, 2005, and for all periods presented, have been included. Interim results for the six-month period ended February 28, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole.

Note 2 – Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America with the on-going assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business rather than through a process of forced liquidation. However, certain conditions noted below currently exist which raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The operations of the Company have primarily been funded by the issuance of capital stock and advances from related parties. Continued operations of the Company are dependent on the Company's ability to complete additional equity financings or generate profitable operations in the future. Management's plan in this regard is to secure additional funds through future equity financings. Such financings may not be available or may not be available on terms reasonable to the Company.

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies

Stock-Based Compensation

Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS 123”) encourages, but does not require, companies to record compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation plans at fair value. The Company has chosen to account for stock-based employee compensation using Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” (“APB 25”). Accordingly, compensation cost for stock options is measured as the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the Company's stock at the date of the grant over the amount employees are required to pay for the stock.

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123 and the consensus in Emerging Issues Task Force No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”).

The Company generally grants stock options with exercise prices equal to, or in excess of, the quoted market price at the date of the stock option grant. The Company calculates non-employee stock-based compensation expense using the Black-Scholes model to estimate the fair value of options granted to non-employees. The Company classifies non-employee expense according to the nature of services provided.

The following table illustrates the effect on loss and loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation.

Note 3 - Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Recent accounting pronouncements

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 153, “Exchanges of Nonmonetary Assets – an amendment of APB Opinion No. 29” (“SFAS 153”) which amends Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 29, “Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions” to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. SFAS 153 is effective for nonmonetary asset exchanges occurring in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005.

In December 2004, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123R, “Share Based Payment” (“SFAS 123R”). SFAS 123R supersedes APB 25 and its related implementation guidance by requiring entities to recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for awards of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value of those awards (with limited exceptions) and revises SFAS 123 as follows:

i)      Public entities are required to measure liabilities incurred to employees in share-based payment transactions at fair value and nonpublic entities may elect to measure their liabilities to employees incurred in share-based payment transactions at their intrinsic value whereas under SFAS 123, all share-based payment liabilities were measured at their intrinsic value.

ii)      Entities are required to estimate the number of instruments for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered as opposed to accounting for forfeitures as they occur.

iii)     Incremental compensation cost for a modification of the terms or conditions of an award is measured by comparing the fair value of the modified award with the fair value of the award immediately before the modification whereas SFAS 123 required that the effects of a modification be measured as the difference between the fair value of the modified award at the date it is granted and the award’s value immediately before the modification determined based on the shorter of (1) its remaining initially estimated expected life or (2) the expected life of the modified award.

SFAS 123R also clarifies and expands guidance in several areas, including measuring fair value, classifying an award as equity or as a liability and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. SFAS 123R does not change the accounting guidance for share-based payment transactions with parties other than employees provided in SFAS 123 as originally issued and EITF 96-18. SFAS 123R also does not address the accounting for employee share ownership plans which are subject to Statement of Position 93-6, “Employers’ Accounting for Employee Stock Ownership Plans”. Public entities (other than those filing as small business issuers) will be required to apply SFAS 123R as of the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after June 15, 2005. Public entities that file as small business issuers, such as the Company, will be required to apply SFAS 123R in the first interim or annual reporting period that begins after December 15, 2005.

The adoption of these new pronouncements are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 4 – Patents and Trademark Rights

In September 2001, the Company acquired patent and trademark rights (the “Acquired Technology”) from Diversified Sciences Limited (“Diversified”) and Ikona Technologies Inc. (“Technologies”), companies related by virtue of a common director, officer and significant shareholder. The patent rights relate to planetary gearing technology and consist of a United States patent, a Canadian patent and a European patent applicable in France, Germany, Italy, Great Britain and Sweden. The US patent has a term of 17 years from the issue date and expires on November 11, 2015. The Canadian patent has a term of 20 years from the filing date and expires on July 29, 2014. The remaining patents have terms of 20 years from the date of filing the European patent and expire on July 26, 2015. The trademark acquired by the Company provides for the exclusive assignment of rights, title and interest in the “IKONA Gear TM” Canadian Trademark.

The patent acquisition agreement with Diversified required the Company to issue 2,180,000 shares of common stock at a value of $109,000 to Diversified and pay $63,000 (C$100,000) less Diversified’s tax credit recoveries of $18,900 (C$30,000) relating to the patents.

The trademark acquisition agreement with Technologies required the Company to issue 20,000 shares of common stock at a value of $1,000 to Technologies, pay $62,000 to Technologies and repay amounts owing of $15,000 on behalf of Technologies.

The Acquired Technology was recorded by the Company at a cost of $231,100.

There is significant uncertainty regarding future revenue to be generated from intangible assets due to the fact that this is a new business with a developing technology and there are currently no comparable businesses in the intended market segments for which any reliable predictions for future revenue generation can be based.

Due to the uncertainties related to expected future undiscounted cash flows, management has concluded that the carrying value of intangible assets had been materially impaired and has written-down the entire value of intangible assets resulting in a charge of $183,763 to operations in August 2004.

Overview

We are commercializing our patented gearing technology (the “Ikona Gearing System”). The Ikona Gearing System utilizes a newly designed, patented tooth shape which enables gears to be much smaller, lighter, stronger and more energy efficient while allowing the highest single stage reduction ratio, lower backlash than any other gear currently available on the market. In high-ratio applications the Ikona Gearing System can replace multiple stage gearing systems with a single stage reduction ratio and is thus more cost effective to manufacture.

Our business strategy is based on building strategic alliances on the strength of our technology. We are not gear manufacturers, we are gear designers who will manufacture a prototype and then allow our clients to manufacture their own gears based on our design, therefore we have no dependency on any principal suppliers of manufacturing materials or labor. Our business model thus, is to develop joint development alliances and licensing agreements with leading industry partners. These partnerships will allow us to develop royalty and licensing revenue streams and to participate in revenues generated from the sale of products stemming from the joint development alliances.

Our goal is to capture 5% of the multi-billion dollar gear design market within seven to ten years (worldwide gear manufacturing sales are in the order of $87 billion annually). Our goal in the current operating year is to enter licensing agreements in three distinctly different vertical markets (for example: automotive, shipping, alternative energy, or robotics) with distinctly different business partners, where we will prove the virtues of our patented gearing technology in applications that generate revenues for us. We have only one revenue-producing licensing agreement; as a result we have insufficient information to predict how differences in these markets could have a significant effect on our revenues.

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on September 20, 2000, as "Oban Mining, Inc.". On October 30, 2003, we acquired Ikona Gear International, Inc. ("IKONA"). As a result of the transaction, we changed our name to Ikona Gear International, Inc. and we changed the name of IKONA to Ikona Gear USA, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ikona Gear International, Inc., (“the Company”). In connection with the name change, we were assigned a new ticker symbol by the NASD, and our common stock now trades on the Over-the-Counter market under the symbol "IKGI."

Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis covers material changes in our results of operations for the six months ended February 28, 2005, and material changes in our results of operations for the three months ended February 28, 2005, as compared to the same periods in 2004.

Each Unit consists of one common share and one full warrant per share of common stock, entitling the holder to purchase one additional share of common stock for $1.00 per share for one year, and $1.40 for the second year.

At March 1, 2005, our current working capital, not considering the subscription advances to April 11, 2005, is expected to be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for approximately three months. At April 11, 2005, our working capital is expected to be sufficient to satisfy our operating requirements for approximately ten months.

18



Our ability to satisfy projected working capital requirements is dependent upon our ability to secure additional funding through public or private sales of securities, including equity securities. There is no assurance that we will secure the necessary capital on terms acceptable to us. If we are unable to raise additional capital when needed, this could have a material adverse affect on us, including possibly requiring us to curtail or cease our operations.

Our Company is in the development stage and we expect to remain in the development stage for the current operating year. We do not expect to generate significant net cash flow from operations in the present year.

In the six months ended February 28, 2005, our operations consumed $693,040. Our net loss of $815,132 was partially offset by amortization and depreciation of $39,497, and by $92,957 of non-cash stock-based compensation.

In the six months ended February 28, 2005, we spent $49,544 on property and equipment. Our total cash consumed in the six months ended February 28, 2005, was $742,584.

Trends and Uncertainties

US Patent re-investigation

We were informed by Magna Advanced Technologies in March 2004, that a patent search report from the European Patent Office on November 23, 1995, turned up an existing relevant patent (GB, A, 1 101 522 issued on 31 January 1966) (“the Rolls Royce Patent”) as prior art, filed with the European Patent Office. We subsequently convinced the European Patent Office that the Rolls Royce Patent did not conflict with our European Patent application and we were granted our European patents.

Regardless of the fact that the correspondence occurred and did not impair our ability to file a European Patent, it has been suggested to us that management had a responsibility to disclose to the US Patent Office the European search report and its findings, and our subsequent response.

We have been evaluating with our Vancouver based Patent attorneys the best course of action to follow to remedy or mitigate the management oversight. We have been advised that we could request a re-examination of the US Patent, providing the additional European disclosures. We have been advised that a re-examination could take between one and two years, and that there are no assurances that, through the re-examination with the additional European disclosures, we would remedy the oversight and ensure that our US Patent remains in force in its present form. We approached a US Patent Attorneys office and we are seeking a second opinion prior to deciding how to proceed and whether a response is required at all. Management believes at this time, prior to having received an opinion from our US Patent Attorneys, that a re-examination will be requested and the additional European disclosures will be brought to the attention of the US Patent Office in an attempt to remedy and mitigate any real or perceived weakness with the our US Patent No. 5,505,668.

Marketing Plan and Engineering Progress

We have developed a marketing plan for vertical, industry-specific applications of the proprietary Ikona Gearing System for applications which capitalize on the unique high torque and low weight attributes of the Ikona Gearing System, including but not limited to:

Magna Advanced Technologies Progress

In September 2004, we initiated phase two of our agreement with Magna Advanced Technologies (“Magna”). We are aware of at least two automotive applications developed within Magna between September 2004 and February 28, 2005. We have been approached by Magna, in March 2005, with a request to formalize our commercial arrangements with them and we have responded with a request to complete our Licensing Agreement and minimum royalty arrangements with Magna, as required in our original agreement with them. We anticipate formal negotiations over the next two to three months prior to finalizing our Licensing Agreement and royalty provisions and the resulting revenue expectations from this vertical market.

Other Engineering Progress and Implications for our Business Model

Aside from the table above, we previously entered into a Licensing Agreement for royalties in the medical device market for a gear in the Mayo Clinic arm-brace. Though this application is generating revenues on a quarterly basis for us, it is a niche application, of which we would need many if we were to break even at our present expense levels.

Our marketing and engineering efforts thus far have supported our marketing plan in concluding that there are very many, as well as many varied, applications where the Ikona Gear is of interest to engineering product applications. Thus far we are maintaining our assertion that engineering product developers will pay royalties for the rights to license our patented gearing technology in their applications.

We are presently attempting to leverage a large reseller arrangement in the automotive sector, as well as dealing directly with several smaller niche applications of our gearing technology. Based on our marketing research, we are aware that the automotive market is roughly half of the global gearing market in terms of annual revenues. Therefore, once we have concluded our negotiations with Magna in the automotive sector, and at least one application in the industrial gearing sector, we believe we will have quantifiable information upon which to base our revenue expectations. Upon the conclusion of a Licensing Agreement we will better be able to establish our potential to generation profits from our patented technology, marketed in a business model that proposes to sell the patent rights via a royalty determined under a licensing arrangement.

Item 3 Controls and Procedures

Laith Nosh, President and Chief Executive Officer and Raymond L. Polman, Chief Financial Officer of the Company have established and are currently maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for the Company. The disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company is made known to them as soon as it is known by others within the Company.

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer conducted an update and a review and evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures and have concluded, based on their evaluation at February 28, 2005, that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective for gathering, analyzing and disclosing the information we are required to disclose in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There have been no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of the previously mentioned evaluation.
