Note 1 Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
Organization and Line of Business
GiraSolar, Inc. is broad based solar energy company with business activities in several segments of the solar value chain ranging from silicon raw material supply to system integration. GiraSolar Inc. was established after Legend Investment Corp. acquired a majority of the Dutch GiraSolar BV group in February 2006 and consequently changed its name to GiraSolar Inc. and abandoned all its previous business activities not related to solar energy. GiraSolar BV- the majority owned subsidiary of GiraSolar Inc. which is operating in the field of solar energy and related products - was established in 2003 in Deventer, the Netherlands by W.M. Koornstra, H.J.M. Keijzer and K.H.J.M. Dirven, three seasoned solar energy entrepreneurs with a track record dating back to 1993 for W.M. Koornstra, involving on-grid and off-grid solar and R&D activities. GiraSolar BV operates two fully owned subsidiaries in the Netherlands (DutchSolar BV and GiraMundo BV) and a 51% owned subsidiary in Turkey (GiraSolar Turkey Ltd. Ste.) and a fully owned sales support office in Spain.
These financial statements include the Company and its subsidiary GiraSolar, B.V. The primary activities of GiraSolar, B.V. consist of the production of solar energy equipment; the sale of solar energy applications and equipment; and consultancy of solutions in the field of solar energy applications and equipment.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company incurred a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2007 of $345,490 and at March 31, 2007, had an accumulated stockholders equity of $3,533,726 and a working capital deficit of $2,742,635. These conditions raise substantial doubt as to the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts, or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GiraSolar, B.V. and its two wholly owned subsidiaries and one 51% owned subsidiary, of which the Company has the ability to exercise control and direct operations. All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. The Company recognizes revenue when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to the customer pursuant to applicable laws and regulations, including factors such as when there has been evidence of a sales arrangement, the performance has occurred, or service have been rendered, the price to the buyer is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Revenues from the sale of solar energy equipment are recognized upon delivery.
Revenues from services are recognized in proportion to the services rendered.
Government operating grants are included in the statement of operations in the year to which the subsidized expenses are charged, in which the loss of income is incurred, or in which the operating loss has occurred.
Stock Based Compensation
SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, establishes and encourages the use of the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation arrangements under which compensation cost is
determined using the fair value of stock-based compensation determined as of the date of grant and is recognized over the periods in which the related services are rendered. The statement also permits companies to elect to continue using the current intrinsic value accounting method specified in Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, to account for stock-based compensation. The Company has elected to use the intrinsic value based method and has disclosed the pro forma effect of using the fair value based method to account for its stock-based compensation issued to employees. For options granted to employees where the exercise price is less than the fair value of the stock at the date of grant, the Company recognizes an expense in accordance with APB 25. For non-employee stock based compensation the Company recognizes an expense in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and values the equity securities based on the fair value of the security on the date of grant. For stock-based awards the value is based on the market value for the stock on the date of grant and if the stock has restrictions as to transferability a discount is provided for lack of tradability. Stock option awards are valued using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Companys financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued interest and due to related party, the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statements of cash flows, the Company defines cash equivalents as all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less, plus all certificates of deposit.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. The Company places its cash with high quality financial institutions and at times may exceed the FDIC $100,000 insurance limit. The Company extends credit based on an evaluation of the customers financial condition, generally without collateral. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customers financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required.
Furniture and Vehicles, net
Acquisitions of furniture and vehicles are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements of furniture and vehicles are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of furniture and vehicles are charged to expense as incurred. When furniture and vehicles are retired, their cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reported in the statements of operations. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful life of each class of depreciable assets as follows:
Furniture and fixtures
5 -10 years
Vehicles
3 - 5 years
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
SFAS No. 144 requires that long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including those of discontinued operations, be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing
operations or in discontinued operations. SFAS No. 144 broadens the reporting of discontinued operations to include all components of an entity with operations that can be distinguished from the rest of the entity and that will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the entity in a disposal transaction. SFAS No. 144 also establishes a primary-asset approach to determine the cash flow estimation period for a group of assets and liabilities that represents the unit of accounting for a long-lived asset to be held and used. The Company has no impairment issues to disclose.
Accrued Product Warranties
The Companys product warranty accrual reflects managements estimate of probable liability as a percentage of product sales. Management establishes product warranty accruals based on historical experience and currently available information. The provision was established for the year ended December 31, 2005 is based on 1.75% of the sales of GiraMundo B.V. and DutchSolar B.V. The provision is short-term in nature. Management has determined that no additional accrual was required for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred taxes are provided on the liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, Earnings per Share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented since the effect of the assumed conversion of options and warrants to purchase common shares would have an anti-dilutive effect. The Company had no potential common shares equivalents as of March 31, 2007 and 2006.
All common stock shares are presented to reflect a five for 2 forward stock split approved by the Board of Directors on April 12, 2006. All share and per share information has been retroactively restated to reflect this stock split.
Comprehensive Loss
SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Loss, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. Total comprehensive loss consists of the net income for the respective periods, the foreign currency translation adjustments, and the unrealized loss on available for sale securities.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation No. 48 (FIN 48), Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance for the recognition, measurement, classification and disclosure of the financial statement effects of a position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return (tax position). The financial statement effects of a tax position must be recognized when there is a likelihood of more than 50 percent that based on the technical merits, the position will be sustained upon examination and resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the recognition threshold must be measured initially and subsequently as the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority. The interpretation is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. The Company does not expect its adoption of FIN 48 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial portion, results of operations or cash flows.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 (SFAS No. 157), Fair Value Measurements. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, or the Companys fiscal year ending September 30, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flow.
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158, Employers Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. This Statement improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial position and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. This Statement also improves financial reporting by requiring an employer to measure the funded status of a plan as of the date of its year-end statement of financial position, with limited exceptions. The effective date to initially recognize the funded status and to provide the required disclosures is for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2006, or the Companys fiscal year ending September 30, 2007. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008, or the Companys fiscal year
ending September 30, 2009. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new standard to have a material impact on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. This Statement permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. The objective is to improve financial reporting by providing entities with the opportunity to mitigate volatility in reported earnings caused by measuring related assets and liabilities differently without having to apply complex hedge accounting provisions. The Company is currently assessing the impact the adoption of this pronouncement will have on the financial statements.
Foreign Currency Translation
GiraSolar, B.V. maintains its books and records in Euros, the currency of the Netherlands. The Euro is the Companys functional currency, as the Companys business activities are located in the Netherlands and dominated in Euros. Assets, and liabilities are translated into United States Dollars have been made at the rate of $1.3374 (US$), the exchange rate prevailing at March 31, 2007. Revenue and expenses are translated into United States Dollars at the rate of $1.31093, the average exchange rate during the three months ended March 31, 2007. No representation is made that the Euro amount could have been, or could be converted into US$ at that rate or at any other rate. Foreign currency translation gains or losses are recorded as other comprehensive income in the stockholders equity section of the balance sheet.
Note 2 Inventories
Inventories of raw materials, consumables, and finished goods are valued at the lower of cost or market, on a first-in, first-out basis. The market value is determined by individual assessment of the inventories.

Note 3 Accounts Receivable and Allowance For Doubtful Accounts
Trade accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the year in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.
Dutch income taxes have been recorded on the net income of the consolidating entities which are not a fiscal unity for the Dutch income tax. In addition, an income tax refund receivable has been recorded for one of the consolidating Dutch entities, which has a net operating loss. The receivable is recorded as another asset since it will not be received until that Company has taxable income.
Substantially all of the undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries are considered permanently invested and, accordingly, no federal income taxes thereon have been provided. Should those earnings be distributed, foreign tax credits would reduce the federal income tax that would be payable. Availability of credits is subject to limitations; accordingly, it is not practicable to estimate the amount of the ultimate deferred tax liability, if any, on accumulated earnings.
Note 12 Acquisitions
On February 21, 2006, the Company completed the acquisition of 51% of the capital stock of GiraSolar, B.V., a Netherlands corporation, in exchange for a private placement transaction of five million shares of the Companys restricted common stock (as adjusted for the five for two forward stock split), with an additional 7,500,000 shares issued on October 12, 2006.
The fair market value of the Companys common stock on February 21, 2006 and October 12, 2006, was used to determine the purchase price of $5,830,000. The purchase price was allocated to tangible and intangible assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition as follows:
Current assets | $1,068,935 |
Property and equipment | 6,978 |
Other assets | 217,843 |
Customer list | 2,423,936 |
Goodwill | 3,334,625 |
Total assets | $7,025,317 |
Less Total liabilities | 1,222,317 |
$5,830,000 |
The acquisition was accounted for as a purchase transaction, and accordingly, the assets and liabilities of GiraSolar, B.V. were recorded at their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition.
Intangible assets consisting of the customer list will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of six years. The fair value of the customer list was based on the estimated discounted net cash flows after income taxes over the estimated life of the customer list. Amortization of the customer list included in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 totaled $121,197. Amortization expense related to the customer list of GiraSolar, B.V. for the each of the years ending December 31, 2007, through 2011, is estimated to be $403,989, and for the year ending December 31, 2012 is estimated to be $309,865.
Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of the GiraSolar, B.V. acquisition over the fair value of the related net assets at February 21, 2006. Under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill is subject to annual impairment testing or more frequent testing if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the carrying value of the 51% ownership in GiraSolar, B.V. below its fair value. The impairment testing involves determining the fair market value of the 51% ownership of the issued capital stock of GiraSolar, B.V. Based upon this assessment, the Company has determined that there has been no required adjustment to the carrying value of the goodwill associated with the acquisition of GiraSolar, B.V. any future impairment of goodwill could have a material impact on the Companys financial position and its results of operations.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2006 include the results of GiraSolar, B.V. from its acquisition date of February 21, 2006.
