Our company's equipment and property are recorded at cost. Amortization is calculated on the declining balance method, except for the leasehold improvements where the straight-line method is used, at the following annual rates or period:
We have elected to apply the intrinsic value method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). Under the intrinsic value method of accounting, compensation expense is recognized if the exercise price of our employee stock options is less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation for employees is recognized on the straight-line basis over the vesting period of the individual options. Stock options granted to non-employees are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation", which establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based awards, and recognizes compensation expense based on the fair market value of the stock award or fair market value of the goods and services received, whichever is more reliably measurable. Under the provisions of SFAS 123, com panies that elect to account for stock-based awards in accordance with the provisions of APB 25 are required to disclose the pro forma net income (loss) that would have resulted from the use of the fair value based method under SFAS 123.
The financial statements for December 31, 2003 reflect the 2003 purchase of all assets and intellectual property relating to C-Chip technology and share restructuring related thereto. A valuation analysis was applied to determine the purchase price and its allocation in compliance with SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations".
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. We have adopted SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" as of our inception. Pursuant to SFAS 109 we are required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because we cannot be assured it is more likely than not we will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
In the three-month period ending December 31, 2003 we recorded our first revenue: $148,036 from the sales of Credit Manager to a USA distributor. We expect to realize additional revenue from our acquired technology in 2004 and beyond, although we are unable to forecast volumes at this time.
On the acquisition of all of the assets related to the C-Chip technology we discontinued our mineral exploration business and have reallocated all relevant development costs, totaling $602,606 to Loss from Discontinued Operations.
Our company posted a net loss of $605,634 for the three months ending December 31, 2003. The net loss for the six month period ending December 31, 2003 was $2,311,732. Significant non cash expenses incurred during the six month period were: $1,418,451 for the discount on conversion of our Debenture; $137,000 for stock issued in payment of consulting fees; $164,584 for stock based compensation and $88,232 for depreciation and amortization. Had we determined stock based compensation expense based on the fair value at the date of grant for employee stock options, the net loss would have increased to $749,036 for three months December 31, 2003 and to $2,530,672 for the six months ended December 31, 2003. There are no prior period comparisons for our present operations.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Since our acquisition of all of the assets related to the C-Chip technology in early 2003, our company has been engaged in the development and the marketing of wireless solutions that offer complete remote access, control and the management over targeted equipment and services.
As part of interim financing by shareholders, we have purchased management services from Capex Investments Limited, the vendor in the C-Chip asset purchase transaction. Capex and other related parties also paid certain operations expenses directly and advanced funds for working capital. The amounts due are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and have no fixed terms of repayment. The amount due Capex at December 31, 2003 was $223,824 (June 30, 2003: $193,325). $29,552 was due to other related parties at December 31, 2003 (June 30, 2003: $40,241).
In December 2003 we loaned an unrelated company $93,023 (C$120,000) for interim financing as part of an anticipated transaction to acquire the company for shares of C-Chip.
For the six-month period ended December 31, 2003, our company had used net-cash of $532,657 for its operations. This compared to net-cash used of $10,498 in the comparable 2002 period. Until our company is able to generate sufficient cash flow to sustain its ongoing business activity, management plans to obtain capital through sale of its common stock.
As of December 31, 2003 current assets were $634,396, including cash of $537,956. This compares with our current assets of $20,281 at June 30, 2003. As of December 31, 2003, we had working capital of $254,728 compared to a deficiency of $828,127 at June 30, 2003. The substantial improvement in working capital is primarily attributable to proceeds from our private placement of common shares and conversion of a $500,000 Promissory Note to 909,090 shares and 909,090 share purchase warrants.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The requirements of SFAS No. 150 apply to issuers' classification and measurement of freestanding financial instruments, including those that comprise more than one option or forward contract. SFAS No. 150 does not apply to features that are embedded in a financial instrument that is not a derivative in its entirety. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial inst ruments of non-public entities. It is to be implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for financial instruments created before the issuance date of SFAS No. 150 and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.

In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2002. The transition provisions did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure requir ements of SFAS No. 148 on January 1, 2003.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 on January 1, 2003. The effect of adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.
The FASB has also issued SFAS No. 145, 147 and 149 but they do not have any relationship to the operations of the Company therefore a description of each and their respective impact on the Company's operations have not been disclosed.

Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not have an audit committee financial expert. We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive. Further, because we are only beginning our commercial operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.
Conflicts of Interest
The only conflict that we foresee is that our officers and directors devote time to projects that do not involve us.
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation of Directors
We do not have any plans to pay our directors any money. We do intend to grant our directors options for serving on our board of directors. For fiscal year ending June 30, 2004, we have not determined the compensation that we may grant our directors.
Indemnification
Under our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the corporation, we may indemnify an officer or director who is made a party to any proceeding, including a law suit, because of his position, if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in our best interest. We may advance expenses incurred in defending a proceeding. To the extent that the officer or director is successful on the merits in a proceeding as to which he is to be indemnified, we must indemnify him against all expenses incurred, including attorney's fees. With respect to a derivative action, indemnity may be made only for expenses actually and reasonably incurred in defending the proceeding, and if the officer or director is judged liable, only by a court order. The indemnification is intended to be to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Nevada.
Regarding indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, which may be permitted to directors or officers under Nevada law, we are informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification is against public policy, as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Common Stock
Our authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share. The holders of our common stock:
| * | have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our board of directors; |
| * | are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs; |
| * | do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and |
| * | are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote. |
All shares of common stock now outstanding are fully paid for and non-assessable and all shares of common stock which are the subject of this offering, when issued, will be fully paid for and non-assessable. We refer you to our Articles of Incorporation, Bylaws and the applicable statutes of the state of Nevada for a more complete description of the rights and liabilities of holders of our securities.
-36-
Non-cumulative voting
Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors. After this offering is completed, assuming the sale of all of the shares of common stock, present stockholders will own approximately 58.3% of our outstanding shares.
Cash dividends
As of the date of this prospectus, we have not paid any cash dividends to stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.
Warrants
Currently there are 3,873,637 warrants outstanding. The warrants are exercisable now and the warrants are exerciseable have various expiration dates. See "Selling Warrant Holders." One warrant will entitle the warrant holder to acquire one (1) shares of common stock at a price of $1.00. If the warrant holder does not exercise the warrant within said time period, the warrant will expire and be of no value.
Anti-takeover provisions
There are no Nevada anti-takeover provisions that may have the affect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

EXPERTS
Our financial statements for the period from inception to June 30, 2002, included in this prospectus have been audited by Williams and Webster, P.C., Independent Certified Public Accountants, Bank of America Financial Center, 601 West Riverside Avenue, Suite 1940, Spokane, Washington 99201. Our financial statements for the period from July 1, 2002 to June 30, 2003, included in this prospectus have been audited by Manning Elliott, Chartered Accountants, 11th Floor, 1050 West Pender Street; Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 3S7, as set forth in their report included in this prospectus.
Change of Auditors
On October 7, 2002, we dismissed Williams & Webster, P.S. as our independent auditors. During the two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim period, there were no disagreements on matters of accounting principles and practices, financial disclosure, or auditing scope of procedure between Williams & Webster and us. Williams & Webster, P.S. was dismissed because we determined that it was in our best interests to have our auditor located in Vancouver, British Columbia where our corporate headquarters are located.
The report of Williams & Webster, P.S. on the Registrant's financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2002 did not contain an adverse, qualified or disclaimer of opinion. However, the Reports did contain an explanatory paragraph wherein Williams & Webster expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We requested Williams & Webster to furnish us with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether or not it agreed with the statements made by us in response to Item 4 of our Form 8-K, and, if not, stating the respects in which it did not agree. We delivered a copy of the Form 8-K report to Williams & Webster on October 18, 2002, via facsimile. Williams & Webster replied and its letter agreeing with the statements contained therein was attached as Exhibit 16.1 to our Form 8-K.
On October 7, 2002, our board of directors engaged Manning Elliott, Chartered Accountants, 11th Floor, 1050 West Pender Street, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada V6E 3S7, as its independent auditor for its fiscal year ending June 30, 2003 and subsequent years. Manning Elliott accepted such appointment on October 11, 2002. Prior to their appointment, we did not consult with Manning Elliott on any matters related to accounting or the type of opinion they may issue.

C-Chip Technologies Corporation
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
December 31, 2003
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
(Unaudited)
Nature of Operations
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 26, 2000 as Keystone Mines Limited. In June 2000 the Company purchased four mineral claims, situated in the Greenwood Mining Division in the Province of British Columbia, Canada.
The Company's principal business plan was to acquire, explore and develop mineral properties and to ultimately seek earnings by exploiting the mineral claims. On December 23, 2002 the Company was advised that mineral properties held were not economically viable. On January 7, 2003 the Company acquired assets and intellectual property and changed its business focus to the development of C-Chip Technology (see Note 3). In February, 2003 the Company changed its name to C-Chip Technologies Corporation.
The Company was in the exploration stage since its formation in June 2000 and did not realize any revenues from its original planned operations. Effective December 23, 2002 the Company discontinued its mining operations to devote most of its activities to commercializing the C-Chip Technology and raising sufficient funds to further its new business plan. Planned principal activities have commenced. The ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage with respect to any planned principal business activity is dependent upon its successful efforts to commercialize its development of products and patents, attaining profitable business operations, and/or raising additional equity financing.
The Company expects to fund itself in the next twelve months through issuance of shares or by loans from shareholders and/or directors. During the six-month period ended December 31, 2003, the Company completed a private placement by the issuance of 3,000,910 common shares for total proceeds of $764,500 (See Note 8(c)). The Company also plans to raise funds through the sale of products and through cost re-imbursements. The Company's shares trade on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol CCHI.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale including discontinued operations. SFAS 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations.
e) Foreign Currency Transactions/Balances
The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. Occasional transactions occur in U.S. dollars, and management has adopted SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation". Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Average rates for the year are used to translate revenues and expenses.
f) Development Costs
The Company is in the development stage and all costs relating to research and development are charged to operations as incurred.
g) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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 differ from those estimates.

h) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The requirements of SFAS No. 150 apply to issuers' classification and measurement of freestanding financial instruments, including those that comprise more than one option or forward contract. SFAS No. 150 does not apply to features that are embedded in a financial instrument that is not a derivative in its entirety. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial instruments of non-p ublic entities. It is to be implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for financial instruments created before the issuance date of SFAS No. 150 and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2002. The transition provisions did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure requirements of SFAS N o. 148 on January 1, 2003.

h) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. The Company adopted SFAS No. 146 on January 1, 2003. The effect of adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.
The FASB has also issued SFAS No. 145, 147 and 149 but they do not have any relationship to the operations of the Company therefore a description of each and their respective impact on the Company's operations have not been disclosed.
i) Financial Instruments
Financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, loan receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and related party payables. The fair values approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.
j) Comprehensive Loss
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at December 31, 2003, the Company has no items that represent comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
k) Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earning per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted net loss per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the year by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potential common stock outstanding during the period, if dilutive.

l) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has elected to apply the intrinsic value method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). Under the intrinsic value method of accounting, compensation expense is recognized if the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options is less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation for employees is recognized on the straight-line basis over the vesting period of the individual options. Stock options granted to non-employees are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), which establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based awards, and recognizes compensation expense based on the fair market value of the stock award or fair market value of the goods and services received, whichever is more reliably measurable. Under the provisions of SFAS 123, companies that elect to account for stock-based awards in accordance with the provisions of APB 25 are required to disclose the pro forma net income (loss) that would have resulted from the use of the fair value based method under SFAS 123.
During the three month period ended December 31, 2003, the Company granted 686,905 stock options pursuant to a non-qualified stock option plan at exercise prices ranging from $0.00001 to $0.76 per share. Stock options granted to non-employees totalled 46,905 and vested immediately. Stock options granted to employees vest over a period of one year.
The fair value of the options granted during the period was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2.48%, expected volatility of 108%, an expected option life of 1.7 years and no expected dividends. The weighted average fair value of options granted was $0.28 per share. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the date of grant for its employee stock options, the net loss would have increased by $143,402 for the three months ended December 31, 2003. On April 22, 2003 the Company filed a Form S-8 Registration Statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission to register 5,000,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the Company's 2003 Nonqualified Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). The determination of those eligible to receive options under this Plan, and the amount, type, price and timing of each stock option and the terms and conditions shall rest at the sole discretion of the Company's Compensation Committee, subject to the provisions of the Plan.

m) Revenue Recognition
The Company is still in the development stage and has generated limited commercial sales. The Company plans to recognize revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collectibility is reasonably assured. The Company developed prototypes for testing by potential customers which were billed for a portion of the costs incurred. The Company recorded these cost recoveries when paid as a credit to the respective expense in the statement of operations. During the current quarter, the company produced and sold a number of production units and recorded revenue in the period.
n) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Amortization is calculated on the declining balance method, except for the leasehold improvements where the straight-line method is used, at the following annual rates or period:
Computer equipment | | 30% |
Furniture | | 20% |
Leasehold improvements | | 5 years |
Machinery and equipment | | 20% |

o) Inventory
Inventory consists of the Company's Credit Manager Product and is available for sale to customers. Inventory is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined on a weighted average cost basis.
p) Purchased Intangible Assets
An acquired intangible asset that represents technology that has reached technological feasibility is capitalized at cost. Amortization will be calculated using the straight-line method over four years and recorded commencing in the first quarterly period following acquisition. Acquired in-process research and development is charged to operations on acquisition.
q) Income Tax
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 as of its inception. The Company has incurred net operating losses. Pursuant to SFAS 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.
q) Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.
r) Interim Financial Statements
These interim unaudited financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.

Acquisition of Assets
The financial statements for December 31, 2003 reflect the January 7, 2003 purchase of all assets and intellectual property relating to C-Chip Technology and share restructuring related thereto. The C-Chip Technology acquired is a new patent-pending wireless communications set of tools that offers complete remote control and access over targeted equipment and services. It allows selective enabling, disabling and other commands from/to anywhere in the world. The Company's initial marketing effort will be focused on North America, with services expanded later to Europe and Asia. A valuation analysis was applied to determine the purchase price and its allocation in compliance with SFAS 141. The consideration paid was 5,000,000 restricted shares of common stock with a fair value of $25,000, a non-interest bearing promissory note in the amount of $500,000 due January 31, 2003, and a convertible debenture in the amount of $2,000,000 with a fair value of $803,000, maturing on January 15, 2008 and carrying a coupon of 2.5% payable at the option of the holder in restricted shares of common stock. On July 25, 2003, the debenture, together with accrued interest to July 25, 2003, was converted into 3,910,120 restricted common stock at a 15% discount from market, using the face value of $2,000,000. As part of the asset purchase agreement the Company also paid the vendor $40,000 for-C-Chip development expenses incurred during the acquisition period bringing the total purchase price to $1,368,000. The payment of the promissory note was extended until September 2003 at which time it was applied to acquire 909,090 units of the private placement.
The purchase price was allocated to the following asset categories:
| | $ |
| | |
Property and equipment | | 67,725 |
Patents and trademarks | | 75,990 |
In-process research and development | | 650,000 |
C-Chip Technology
|
| 574,285
|
| | |
|
| 1,368,000
|
| | |
The in-process research and development was charged to operations on acquisition. The remaining intangible assets, patents and trademarks and C-Chip Technology, will be evaluated annually to determine their continuing value.

Independent Auditors' Report
To the Stockholders
C-Chip Technologies Corporation
(formerly Keystone Mines Limited)
(A Development Stage Company)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of C-Chip Technologies Corporation (formerly Keystone Mines Limited) as of June 30, 2003, and the related statement of operations, cash flows and stockholders' deficit for the year then ended. 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 audit. The accompanying balance sheet of C-Chip Technologies Corporation as of June 30, 2002, and the related statement of operations, cash flows and stockholders' deficit accumulated for the period from June 26, 2000 (Date of Inception) to June 30, 2002 and the year ended June 30, 2002, was audited by other auditors in their report dated July 28, 2002. Those auditors expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements and included an explanatory paragraph describing the substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the aforementioned financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of C-Chip Technologies Corporation (formerly Keystone Mines Limited) as of June 30, 2003, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has not generated any revenues since inception and will need additional financing to sustain operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also discussed in Note 1. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

C-Chip Technologies Corporation
(formerly Keystone Mines Limited)
(A Development Stage Company)
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2003
(Expressed in U.S. Dollars)
- Nature of Operations
The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on June 26, 2000 as Keystone Mines Limited. In June 2000 the Company purchased four mineral claims, situated in the Greenwood Mining Division in the Province of British Columbia, Canada.
The Company's principal business plan was to acquire, explore and develop mineral properties and to ultimately seek earnings by exploiting the mineral claims. On December 23, 2002 the Company was advised that mineral properties held were not economically viable. On January 7, 2003 the Company acquired assets and intellectual property and changed its business focus to the development of C-Chip Technology (see Note 3). In February, 2003 the Company changed its name to C-Chip Technologies Corporation.
The Company was in the exploration stage since its formation in June 2000 and did not realize any revenues from its original planned operations. Effective December 23, 2002 the Company discontinued its mining operations to devote most of its activities to commercializing the C-Chip Technology and raising sufficient funds to further its new business plan. Planned principal activities have not yet commenced. The ability of the Company to emerge from the development stage with respect to any planned principal business activity is dependent upon its successful efforts to commercialize its development of products and patents, attaining profitable business operations, and/or raising additional equity financing. Management has plans to seek additional capital through a private placement and public offering of its common stock. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to complete any of the above objectives. There is substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company expects to fund itself in the next twelve months through issuance of shares or by loans from shareholders and/or directors. The Company also plans to raise funds through the sale of products and through cost re-imbursements. The Company's shares trade on the OTC Bulletin Board under the symbol CCHI.
Subsequent to June 30, 2003, the Company is in the process of completing a private placement of common shares (see Note 11(b)).
- Summary of Significant Accounting Principles
a) Year End
The Company's year-end is June 30.
b) Basis of Accounting
These financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and are presented in US dollars.
c) Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.
d) Long-Lived Assets
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale including discontinued operations. SFAS 144 requires that these long-lived assets be measured at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or discontinued operations.

- Summary of Significant Accounting Principles (continued)
e) Foreign Currency Transactions/Balances
The Company's functional currency is the Canadian dollar. Occasional transactions occur in U.S. dollars, and management has adopted SFAS No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation". Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US dollars at rates of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at rates of exchange in effect at the date of the transaction. Average rates for the year are used to translate revenues and expenses.
f) Development Costs
The Company is in the development stage and all costs relating to research and development are charged to operations as incurred. Acquired in-process research and development costs of $650,000 were amortized during the period.
g) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure 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 differ from those estimates.
h) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2003, the FASB issued SFAS No. 150, "Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity". SFAS No. 150 establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. It requires that an issuer classify a financial instrument that is within its scope as a liability (or an asset in some circumstances). The requirements of SFAS No. 150 apply to issuers' classification and measurement of freestanding financial instruments, including those that comprise more than one option or forward contract. SFAS No. 150 does not apply to features that are embedded in a financial instrument that is not a derivative in its entirety. SFAS No. 150 is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective at the beginning of the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, except for mandatory redeemable financial inst ruments of nonpublic entities. It is to be implemented by reporting the cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle for financial instruments created before the issuance date of SFAS No. 150 and still existing at the beginning of the interim period of adoption. Restatement is not permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.
In December 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation - Transition and Disclosure," which amends SFAS No. 123 to provide alternative methods of transition for a voluntary change to the fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation. In addition, SFAS No. 148 expands the disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 to require more prominent disclosures in both annual and interim financial statements about the method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation and the effect of the method used on reported results. The transition provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for fiscal years ended after December 15, 2002. The transition provisions did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position and results of operations. The disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 148 are effective for financial statements for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2002. The Company adopted the disclosure requirement s of SFAS No. 148 on January 1, 2003.

h) Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". The provisions of this Statement are effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002, with early application encouraged. This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)". This Statement requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. The Company will adopt SFAS No. 146 on January 1, 2003. The effect of adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position.
The FASB has also issued SFAS No. 145, 147 and 149 but they do not have any relationship to the operations of the Company therefore a description of each and their respective impact on the Company's operations have not been disclosed.
i) Financial Instruments
Financial instruments include cash and equivalents, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, related party payables, and a promissory note payable. The fair values approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. The convertible debenture payable has a face value of $2,000,000 and was determined to have a fair value of $803,000 on the date of the asset purchase agreement (Note 3).
j) Comprehensive Loss
SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income," establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at June 30, 2003, the Company has no items that represent comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the financial statements.
k) Net Loss Per Share
The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, "Earning per Share" (SFAS 128). SFAS 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted net loss per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the year by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and potential common stock outstanding during the period, if dilutive.

Summary of Significant Accounting Principles (continued)
l) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has elected to apply the intrinsic value method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB 25). Under the intrinsic value method of accounting, compensation expense is recognized if the exercise price of the Company's employee stock options is less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Stock-based compensation for employees is recognized on the straight-line basis over the vesting period of the individual options. Stock options granted to non-employees are accounted for under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123), which establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based awards, and recognizes compensation expense based on the fair market value of the stock award or fair market value of the goods and services received, whichever is more reliably measurable. Under the provisions o f SFAS 123, companies that elect to account for stock-based awards in accordance with the provisions of APB 25 are required to disclose the pro forma net income (loss) that would have resulted from the use of the fair value based method under SFAS 123.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003, the Company granted 20,000 stock options pursuant to a non-qualified stock option plan at an exercise price of $0.00001 per share when the prevailing market price was $0.47 per share, and granted 50,000 stock options pursuant to the Plan at an exercise price of $0.00001 per share when the prevailing market price was $0.20 per share. These stock options vested and were exercised immediately. The Company also granted 2,425,000 stock options at an exercise price of $0.20 per share when the prevailing market price was $0.20 per share. Of these, a total of 606,250 stock options vested immediately with the remaining balance exercisable over a period of one year. The Company charged compensation expense of $19,400 to operations during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2003.
The following table illustrates the effect on net loss per share as if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding and unvested awards in each period.

m) Revenue Recognition
The Company is still in the development stage and has not generated any commercial sales. The Company plans to recognize revenue in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed, and collectibility is reasonably assured.

Summary of Significant Accounting Principles (continued)
m) Revenue Recognition (continued)
The Company has developed prototypes for testing by potential customers which have been billed for a portion of the costs incurred. The Company records these cost recoveries as a credit to the respective expense in the statement of operations. Recoveries from demonstrations and prototype installations of $28,192 were applied to reduce general and administrative expenses.
n) Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Amortization is calculated on the declining balance method, except for the leasehold improvements where the straight-line method is used, at the following annual rates or period:
Computer equipment | 30% |
Furniture | 20% |
Leasehold improvements | 5 years |
Machinery and equipment | 20% |
o) Purchased Intangible Assets
An acquired intangible asset that represents technology that has reached technological feasibility is capitalized at cost. Amortization will be calculated using the straight-line method over four years and recorded commencing in the first quarterly period following acquisition. Acquired in-process research and development is charged to operations on acquisition.
p) Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year's financial statements to conform to the current period's presentation.
Acquisition of Assets
The financial statements for June 30, 2003 reflects the January 7, 2003 purchase of all assets and intellectual property relating to C-Chip Technology and share restructuring related thereto. The C-Chip Technology acquired is a new patent-pending wireless communications set of tools that offers complete remote control and access over targeted equipment and services. It allows selective enabling, disabling and other commands from/to anywhere in the world. The Company's initial marketing effort will be focused on North America, with services expanded later to Europe and Asia. A valuation analysis was applied to determine the purchase price and its allocation in compliance with SFAS 141. The consideration paid was 5,000,000 restricted shares of common stock with a fair value of $25,000, a non-interest bearing promissory note in the amount of $500,000 due January 31, 2003, and a convertible debenture in the amount of $2,000,000 with a fair value of $803,000, maturing on January 15, 2008 and ca rrying a coupon of 2.5% payable at the option of the holder in restricted shares of common stock. (See Note 11(a)). The debenture is convertible into restricted common stock at a 15% discount from market, using the face value of $2,000,000. The convertible debenture will be accreted to $2,000,000 over 5 years at $239,400 per year. As part of the asset purchase agreement the Company also paid the vendor $40,000 for-C-Chip development expenses incurred during the acquisition period bringing the total purchase price to $1,368,000. The due date of the note was subsequently extended to permit completion of a private placement of common stock to fund the acquisition and provide working capital. (See Note 11(b)).

The fair value of the options granted during the period was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions: risk free interest rate of 2.27%, expected volatility of 197%, an expected option life of one year and no expected dividends. The weighted average fair value of options granted was $0.14 per share. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the date of grant for its employee stock options, the net loss would have increased by $82,329 for the year ended June 30, 2003. During the year ended June 30, 2003, the Company recognized stock-based compensation for non-employees in the amount of $19,400.
- Discontinued Operations
Discontinued operations consist of the Company's former activities in mineral exploration. In December 2002 the Company's Board of Directors approved the termination of mining activity and the acquisition of C-Chip Technology (Note 3).
- Income Tax
Potential benefits of income tax losses are not recognized in the accounts until realization is more likely than not. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 109 as of its inception. The Company has incurred net operating losses of $164,000, which expire starting in 2015. Pursuant to SFAS 109 the Company is required to compute tax asset benefits for net operating losses carried forward. Potential benefit of net operating losses have not been recognized in these financial statements because the Company cannot be assured it is more likely than not it will utilize the net operating losses carried forward in future years.

ITEM 26. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.
Since inception, the registrant has sold the following securities which were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
a) | In June 2000, we issued 5,000,000 shares of common stock to Hugh Grenfal and Mike Muzylowski, our founders. |
b) | On December 23, 2002, we acquired all physical assets and intellectual property related to certain C-Chip technology owned by Capex Investments Limited ("Capex"), a corporation incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Mauritius. Capex was owned and controlled by Forever Profit (China) Limited. . The assets acquired were used by Capex to develop and commercialize wireless solutions targeting the credit and security management industries and the emerging pay-per-use management industry. The consideration paid by us for the technology was: (1) a promissory note in the amount of $500,000 bearing no interest and payable in full on January 30, 2003; (2) 250,000 restricted shares of common stock; and, (3) a convertible debenture of $2,000,000 maturing on January 15, 2007 and carrying a coupon rate of 2.5% payable at the option of Capex into restricted shares of the registrant's common stock at a discount of 15% from the market price of the common stock. In addition, we assumed up to a maximum of $40,000 of the amounts disbursed by Capex from December 1, 2002 to closing in order for Capex to maintain on-going operations related to the C-Chip technology. |
c) | The Debenture Payable including accrued interest was converted into 3,910,120 restricted common shares at a 15% discount from market, using the face value of $2,000,000.00. This resulted in a discount on conversion of debt in the amount of $1,418,451, which is included in additional paid-in capital. |

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
1. | To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
| a. To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
| b. Reflect in the prospectus any facts or events which, individually or together, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Not withstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) (Section 230.424(b) of this chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement. |
| c. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any change to such information in the registration statement. |
2. | That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
3. | To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
