NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
NATURE OF BUSINESS
XL Generation International Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated in Nevada on March 18, 2004 as Cygni Systems Corporation and changed its name to XL Generation International Inc. on August 23, 2005. On August 19, 2005, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (”SEA”) with XL Generation AG ("XLG") pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of XLG in exchange for the issuance of fifteen million shares of restricted common stock (the "Common Stock").
In connection with the SEA, the Company commenced actions to provide for the revision of the Company's capital structure. Pursuant to such actions, DT Crystal Holdings Ltd., the controlling shareholder of the Company prior to entry into the SEA, as inducement to the shareholders of XLG to enter into the SEA, agreed to cancel four million shares of the Company’s Common Stock and accept in consideration thereof an option exercisable for 500,000 shares of the Company. In addition, the Company made a stock dividend to shareholders of record of the Company of nine shares of Common Stock for each one share of Common Stock held of record, provided, however, each of DT Crystal Holdings Ltd. and the Alain Lemieux Trust, a trust formed in the Jersey Islands, and Mr. Albert Beerli waived their respective rights to such stock dividend. The record date for such dividend was set as August 29, 2005.
The Company now serves as the holding company for XLG. The Company has no other operations other than XLG.
XLG was incorporated in 1991, and was inactive until March of 2004, when it was granted the exclusive worldwide right to manufacture, promote and sell XL Turf products. XL Turf is an artificial pitch used primarily in soccer stadiums and indoor recreational facilities. XLG has its operational headquarters in Zug, Switzerland. XLG is a provider of artificial turf to international soccer clubs, educational institutions and other leisure providers across North America, Europe and Asia. XLG has developed new artificial turf systems for sports fields. XLG holds the worldwide commercial and manufacturing rights for the "XL technology." The “XL technology” consists of six patents. Of these six patents, one is patented in 38 countries, with patents pending in 6 more countries; another is patented in 16 countries, with patents pending in 28 more; two of these patents are pending in seven countries; and two of the six patents are pending in one country each. XLG produces its owned product lines under the "XL Generation" trademark, including the "genuine" XLTURF sport systems. XLG also distributes its products worldwide through an extensive licensed distribution network, designing and manufacturing private labeled products using the "XL technology."
XLG is represented in Canada by XL Generation Canada Inc. (XLG Canada) which was incorporated on November 11, 2003 under the name of Symbior Marketing NA Inc., under the Companies Act, part 1A (Quebec). From inception until March 2004, XLG Canada had no active operations. The head office was, and is still today, situated at 1000, de la Gauchetière West, Suite 2900, Montreal, Quebec, H3B 4W5, Canada. From the incorporation date to April 5, 2004 the sole shareholder of XLG Canada was Symbior Marketing AG. On April 5, 2004, Symbior marketing AG transferred all the issued and outstanding shares of XLG Canada to XL Generation AG for nominal consideration. Subsequently, on September 1, 2004, XL Generation AG transferred all the issued and outstanding shares of XLG Canada to Albert Beerli. Mr. Beerli is a Director of XLG and a Director of the Company and a shareholder of both XLG and the Company. The transfer was made for a nominal consideration. In February 2004, XLG entered into a Management Agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with XLG Canada. The Management Agreement provided that XLG Canada would act as XLG’s representative in Canada. The Management Agreement provided that XLG Canada would (i) register with Canadian tax authorities; (ii) employ the staff required by XLG in Canada; (iii) pay the salary of XLG’s Canadian staff; (iv) reimburse employees of XLG, upon the approval of XLG; (v) pay certain consulting fees on behalf of XLG; (vi) pay certain fees to Polyprod Inc. (a related party service provider to the Company); (vii) maintain a separate bank account; (viii) represent XLG in transactions with Polyprod Inc.; and (ix) serve as the vendor for any sales of XLG products in Canada. The Management Agreement further provides that in the event of a change of control, XLG Canada would continue to act on behalf of XLG in Canada, but any profits would be paid to XLG. In the event of a change of control, XLG would have the right to appoint another party to act as its agent in Canada. The Management Agreement provides that in the event of a change of control, in consideration for the services to be rendered by XLG Canada to XLG, a fee would be negotiated by the parties which shall represent the fair market value of services rendered. The Management Agreement has no set termination date, but may be terminated at any time by a written notice sent to the other party at least two (2) months prior to the termination date. XLG Canada has never charged a fee to XLG for services rendered. Mr. Beerli, acting both on his own behalf and on behalf of XLG has executed a memorandum (the “Memorandum”) with XLG and the Company, memorializing certain oral agreements previously reached between the Company, XLG and XLG Canada. Pursuant to the Memorandum, Mr. Beerli is not entitled to receive any compensation or equity benefit from XLG Canada or for his ownership of XLG Canada. Any profits from the sales of products of XLG in Canada shall pass-through XLG Canada to XLG. All advances made to XLG Canada shall be allocated solely for the benefit of XLG.
6
XLG products are produced by Polyprod Inc. (“Polyprod”), a Canadian Corporation, pursuant to an Exclusive Manufacturing License Agreement (the “Exclusive Agreement”) entered into as of January 2, 2005. Polyprod Inc. provides the assembly of the final XLG products, using a combination of turf, glue, and Expanded Polypropylene (EPP). Pursuant to the Exclusive Agreement. Polyprod manufactures XLG’s products on a cost-plus basis. The Exclusive Agreement has a term of ten (10) years.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary XLG after the elimination of inter-company accounts and transactions up to the transaction date. As required by the SEC in Reverse Takeover transactions, the operating entity, in this case XLG, is deemed to be the acquirer whose results are reported in these financial statements. Any additional stock issued after August 19, 2005 will be recorded as additional share capital, as if it was XLG issuing the stock. Any inter-company assets, liabilities and internal transactions are eliminated, including any profit based on inter-company trading.
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities not exceeding three months to be cash equivalents.
INVENTORIES
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost determined on the first-in, first-out method or market.
PROPERTY & OFFICE EQUIPMENT
Equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over 3 to 10 years.

REVENUE RECOGNITION
The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product has been shipped or the services have been provided to the customer, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectibles are reasonably assured. The Company reduces revenue for estimated customer returns, rotations and sales rebates when such amounts are estimable. When not estimable, the Company defers revenue until the product is sold to the end customer. As part of its product sales price, the Company provides support, which is generally utilized by the customer shortly after the sale.
7
INCOME TAXES
The asset and liability approach is used to account for income taxes by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized.
LOSS PER COMMON SHARE
The basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss, adjusted on an "as if converted" basis, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus potential dilutive securities.
WARRANTY PROVISIONS
The Company provides a reserve based upon management experience and assessment of potential replacement costs. Company management will continue to monitor the stability of its products and will adjust the provision accordingly. During 2005, management undertook a major review of the warranty policies and reserves required as a consequence of significant warranty request from customers in North America and Europe. In the second half of the year we found that our product during warm weather and direct sun did not withstand the expansion of the product’s sub-base. As a result the Company developed a “roll system” to counter the problem and improved the malleability of the product. During the second half of 2005 we commenced a replacement process by replacing problematic outdoor products with the new roll system. As at December 31, 2005 we were due to replace two products in Switzerland and Vancouver, Canada. The reserves required to replace these products were estimated at approximately $500,000. During the first quarter of 2006 we replaced the field in Wohlen, Switzerland at a cost of approximately $350,000 including transport and installation. In addition, we also replaced faulty products in the US for an additional $150,000. The product failure in Wohlen was due to problems with the connectivity of the panels in warm weather. The original product used a Tongue and Groove system which we have discontinued. In the US we have replaced different products for different reasons some of which were caused due to chemical complications in connection with using the surface for paintball sport. In August 2005 the Company installed a product in Interlaken, Switzerland. This product was our first type using the “click” connection system. As with the tongue and groove system the “click” would not sustain a playable surface in the variation of temperatures which were experienced in the area. The management therefore took the view to make a provision to replace the Interlaken which will be approximately $350,000. We therefore made a warranty reserve release provision of $500,000)to replace products in the future in the event that any other installed products would fail or not sustain the variation of temperatures.
USE OF ESTIMATES
In preparing financial statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities in the balance sheet and revenue and expenses in the income statement. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on its results of operations, financial position or cash flow. For further information regarding recent accounting pronouncements, please see Note 12.
8
NOTE 2 - GOING CONCERN
The Company's consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. During the three months period ended March 31, 2006, the Company has incurred losses of $3,812,690. The Company has negative working capital of $3,076,177 at March 31, 2006, and a stockholders deficiency of $ 3,014,882 at March 31, 2006. As at March 31, 2006 current assets less current liabilities was a net liability of $ 3,076,177. These factors among others raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
Management's plans for the Company's continued existence include selling additional stock and borrowing additional funds to pay overhead expenses while current marketing efforts continue to raise its sales volume.
The Company's future success is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of Common Stock or borrow additional funds.
The Company's inability to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations and its ability to continue in existence. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
NOTE 3 - NOTE RECEIVABLE - Related party
The Company reimbursed $327,271 to XLG Canada Inc as payments for services. The note bears interest at a rate based upon a percentage of sales pursuant to a related sales agreement.

NOTE 6 - NOTE PAYABLE - SUPPLIER
On April 6, 2006, the Company, XL Generation AG and Stadium SA entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Stadium Stock Purchase Agreement") pursuant to which Stadium SA agreed to accept 1,236,824 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock in lieu of repayment of XL Generation AG indebtedness to Stadium SA of 2,950,000 Euros (approximately $3,584,545). Previously, the Terenvi Society had loaned XL Generation AG 1,600,000 Euros pursuant to a loan agreement dated December 16, 2004 (the “Terenvi Loan”). The Terenvi Society subsequently assigned the right to receive re-payment of the Terenvi Loan to Stadium SA. XL Generation AG previously entered into a distribution agreement with the Soreve Society on April 13, 2004 (the “Soreve Distribution Agreement”). The Soreve Society subsequently transferred to Stadium SA its payment rights under the Soreve Distribution Agreement. Pursuant to the Stadium Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to intervene and resolve the indebtedness of XL Generation AG in respect of the Terenvi Loan and Soreve Distribution Agreement by issuing shares of restricted Company Common Stock in satisfaction of XL Generation AG obligations.
NOTE 7 - PAYABLE - SHARE HOLDERS
Mr. Albert Beerli, a significant shareholder, continued to support the Company with additional shareholder loans through payment of certain Company overhead obligations. The total note balance at March 31, 2006 was $655,640. The note carries an interest of 4.5% and is payable on demand.
On the 30 December of 2005 the Company received loans from shareholder CAPEX Investment Limited in the amount of $300,000. This loan was an advance on Warrants as part of the Private Placements executed November 17, 2005. The advance was carrying an interest rate of 10% per annum and was converted into restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock on March 30, 2006.
NOTE 8 - CAPITAL STOCK
The company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock (par value $0.001) of which 32,891,444 were issued and outstanding at of March 31, 2006. During the first quarter 2006, the Company issued a total of 2,841,111 restricted shares of the Company’s Common Stock in connection with various private placements and the exercise of warrants.
NOTE 9 - INCOME TAXES
Income taxes are not due since the Company has incurred a loss since inception. The Company has deductible net operating losses of approximately $7,321,193 at March 31, 2006. These losses expire as follows: in 2023 $626,000 will expire and in 2024 $2,142,000 will expire.
Components of deferred tax assets and liabilities at March 31, 2006 are as follows:
March 31, 2006: | ||||
Deferred tax asset | $ | 2,768,000 | ||
Valuation allowance | (2,768,000 | ) | ||
Net deferred tax asset | $ | 0 |
The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax asset since it believes it is more likely than not that such deferred tax asset will not be realized.
10
NOTE 10 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is committed under an operating lease for its New York office that calls for minimum annual rental of approximately $96,000 per year and expires August 2008.
NOTE 11- RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Mr. Beerli undertook to advance payments on behalf of the Company during the year to cover general overhead items related to the running cost of the Zug office. The balance as of March 31, 2006 was $655,640.
XLG was charged $88,159 during the first quarter of 2006 for fees and expenses for the period of January to March 2006 by Greendale Consulting Limited (“Greendale”). In April of 2005, XLG entered into a verbal agreement, pursuant to which Greendale, an entity formed in the United Kingdom, would provide financial and commercial consulting and support services to the Company. Greendale is controlled by Flemming Munck, who is a director of the Company, as well as the Company's CFO and Treasurer. Since May of 2005, XL Generation AG has been paying 6,600 GBP (approximately $11,638) per month to Greendale. The outstanding amount owed to Greendale Consult Ltd as of March 31, 2006 was $0 ($0 for 2005).
On September 25, 2005 XLG signed an agreement with Mr. Daniel Courteau for the transfer of his rights in the bankruptcy of Symbior Technology Ltd for an amount of $60,000 Canadian Dollars (CAD). The outstanding amount as at March 2006 was $0 ($50,000 as of December 31, 2005).
The Company has reviewed the recoverability of a receivable from XL Generation Canada Inc., a related party. The Company has taken a charge of $2,217,607 in the first quarter of 2006 in respect of such receivable. The funds underlying the receivable were previously forwarded to XL Generation Canada Inc. for Company-related activities in Canada, including building up inventory with our suppliers to facilitate shorter delivery periods. As XL Generation Canada Inc. does not have sufficient cash resources to repay the advance, management determined to take a charge for the full amount of such outstanding advances.
Note 12 - RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
In December 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued FASB Interpretation Number 46-R ("FIN 46-R") "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." FIN 46-R, which modifies certain provisions and effective dates of FIN 46, sets forth criteria to be used in determining whether an investment in a variable interest entity should be consolidated. These provisions are based on the general premise that if a company controls another entity through interests other than voting interests, that company should consolidate the controlled entity. The Company believes that currently, it does not have any material arrangements that meet the definition of a variable interest entity, which would require consolidation.
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151, "Inventory Costs - An Amendment of ARB No. 43, Chapter 4" (SFAS No. 151). SFAS No. 151 requires all companies to recognize a current-period charge for abnormal amounts of idle facility expense, freight, handling costs and wasted materials. This statement also requires that the allocation of fixed production overhead to the costs of conversion be based on the normal capacity of the production facilities. SFAS No. 151 will be effective for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.123(R), "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS No. 123(R). This statement replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB 25. SFAS 123(R) requires all stock-based compensation to be recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such compensation be measured according to the grant-date fair value of stock options. SFAS 123 (R) will be effective for annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company currently does not provide for any stock-based compensation and it will evaluate the impact this statement will have on its consolidated financial statements if such compensation were to take place in the future.
11
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 153, "Exchanges on Nonmonetary Assets An Amendment of APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions" (SFAS 153). SFAS 153 eliminates the exception from fair value measurement for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets in paragraph 21(b) of APB Opinion No. 29, "Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions," and replaces it with an exception for exchanges that do not have commercial substance. SFAS 153 specifies that 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 fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of this statement to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In May 2005, the FASB issued SFAS No. 154, "ACCOUNTING FOR CHANGES AND ERROR CORRECTIONS, A REPLACEMENT OF APB OPINION NO. 20 AND FASB STATEMENT NO. 3" SFAS 154 applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principles and requires retrospective application to prior periods' financial statements of changes in accounting principle. This statement also requires that a change in depreciation, amortization, or depletion method for long-lived, nonfinancial assets be accounted for as a change in accounting estimate effected by a change in accounting principle. SFAS 154 carries forward without change the guidance contained in Opinion No. 20 for reporting the correction of an error in previously issued financial statements and a change in accounting estimate. This statement is effective for accounting changes and corrections of errors made in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2005. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations, or liquidity.
Note 13 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company was incorporated in the State of Nevada on March 18, 2004 as Cygni Systems Corporation. On August 19, 2005, the Company entered into the Share Exchange Agreement with XL Generation AG ("XLG"). Pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock of XLG in exchange for the issuance at closing of an aggregate of fifteen million shares of restricted Common Stock of the Company.
In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, the Company commenced actions to provide for the revision of the Company's capital structure. Pursuant to such actions, DT Crystal Holdings Ltd., the controlling shareholder of the Company prior to entry into the Share Exchange Agreement, as inducement to the shareholders of XLG to enter into the Share Exchange Agreement, agreed to cancel four million shares of the Company’s Common Stock and accept in consideration thereof an option exercisable for 500,000 shares of the Company. In addition, the Company made a stock dividend to shareholders of record of the Company of nine shares of Common Stock for each share of Common Stock held, provided, however, each of DT Crystal Holdings Ltd. and the Alain Lemieux Trust, a trust formed in the Jersey Islands, and Mr. Albert Beerli waived their respective rights to such stock dividend (the record date for such dividend was set as August 29, 2005).
XLG, based in Zug, Switzerland, designs specific flooring products for sports, recreational and commercial markets. XLG has developed new artificial turf systems for sports fields. XLG holds the worldwide commercial and manufacturing rights for the "XL technology." The “XL technology” consists of six patents. XLG produces its owned product lines under the "XL Generation" trademark, including the "genuine" XLTURF sport systems. XLG also distributes its products worldwide through an extensive licensed distribution network, designing and manufacturing private labeled products using the "XL technology."
On August 23, 2005, the Company filed a Certificate of Amendment with the State of Nevada, changing its name to "XL Generation International Inc." The Company also changed its stock symbol to XLGI.
The Company now serves as the holding company for XLG. The Company has adopted XLG's fiscal year end and the following Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations describes the financial condition and results of operations for XLG. The Company has no other operations other than XLG and has no employees other than those employed by XLG.
XLG was incorporated in 1991 and was inactive until March of 2004, when WKF/5 Ltd granted it the exclusive worldwide right to manufacture, promote and sell XL Turf products. XL Turf is an artificial pitch used primarily in soccer stadiums and indoor recreational facilities.
Results of Operations
Three Months Ended March 31, 2006 and 2005
Overview
The Company posted a net loss of $3,816,863 for the three months ending March 31, 2006, compared to a net loss of $1,670,607 for the three months ending December 31, 2005.
Sales
Total amounts of gross sales for the three months ended March 31, 2006 were $1,210,971, compared to total gross sales of $2,355 for the three months ended March 31, 2005. Of all the sales, 90% were realized in Europe, the remaining 10% was executed in North America with no significant single orders. The Company has closed three significant sales, mostly XL Pro EF products, two in Switzerland, one for the Municipalitie of Riehen ($277,000) and the second one for the Municipalitie of Buhrain ($389,000). The third sale closed in Norway for the Hammar Olympic Properties ($419,000). The latter sale was the first large project we have implemented in Norway and extends our coverage in the Scandinavian market.
13
Total Cost and Expenses
Total costs and expenses for the year ended March 31, 2006 were $5,027,833 compared to total costs and expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2005 of $960,810. The increases in costs and losses were caused in part by costs associated with corporate overhead, sponsoring of major events, marketing and merchandising, additional provisions for warranty cost and provisions against advances made to a related party.
Cost of Sales
During first quarter 2006 we realized a gross margin of 33.3% which reflects a substantial improvement against what has previously been achieved in any reported quarter. This was achieved as result of continually producing the same product line over a longer period of time. Management efficiencies obtained in our supply chain facilitated improvement in the Company’s position to buy in bulk and obtain better prices. We will continue where possible to plan our production schedule with our suppliers of raw materials to achieve the lowest prices as possible.
SG&A
New staff positions were created while the responsibilities of other staff positions were altered to improve the Company’s ability to respond to regulatory and market requirements. Additional management positions were created in the sales and marketing area as well as operations areas to work towards the Company’s goals of producing quality products, increasing sales, and lowering prices. We re-organized the sales department and took on two new sales staff in France and a new Sales Director in the United States.
We continued to work with the United Nations to establish the World Sports Alliance (WSA). This requires certain resources which we have allocated in Europe and the US for this purpose. The resources required are in the areas of sales, promotions, legal and marketing. In addition to their duties with WSA these individuals will also assist in Company sales projects in their geographical area as applicable. During the first quarter of 2006 we spent approximately $180,000 on this purpose, whereas there were no expenditures relating to WSA in the first quarter of 2005.
Warranty
The Company provides a reserve based upon management experience and assessment of potential replacement costs. Company management will continue to monitor the stability of its products and will adjust the provision accordingly. During 2005, management undertook a major review of the warranty policies and reserves required as a consequence of significant warranty request from customers in North America and Europe. In the second half of the year we found that our product during warm weather and direct sun did not withstand the expansion of the product’s sub-base. As a result the Company developed a “roll system” to counter the problem and improved the malleability of the product. During the second half of 2005 we commenced a replacement process by replacing problematic outdoor products with the new roll system. As at December 31, 2005 we were due to replace two products in Switzerland and Vancouver, Canada. The reserves required to replace these products were estimated at approximately $500,000. During the first quarter of 2006 we replaced the field in Wohlen, Switzerland at a cost of approximately $350,000 including transport and installation. In addition, we also replaced faulty products in the US for an additional $150,000. The product failure in Wohlen was due to problems with the connectivity of the panels in warm weather. The original product used a Tongue and Groove system which we have discontinued. In the US we have replaced different products for different reasons some of which were caused due to chemical complications in connection with using the surface for paintball sport. In August 2005 the Company installed a product in Interlaken, Switzerland. This product was our first type using the “click” connection system. As with the tongue and groove system the “click” would not sustain a playable surface in the variation of temperatures which were experienced in the area. The management therefore took the view to make a provision to replace the Interlaken which will be approximately $350,000. We therefore made a warranty reserve provision of $500,000) to replace products in the future in the event that any other installed products would fail or not sustain the variation of temperatures.
Other Charges
The Company has reviewed the recoverability of a receivable from XL Generation Canada Inc., a related party. The Company has taken a charge of $2,217,607 in the first quarter of 2006 in respect of such receivable. The funds underlying the receivable were previously forwarded to XL Generation Canada Inc. for Company-related activities in Canada, including building up inventory with our suppliers to facilitate shorter delivery periods. As XL Generation Canada Inc. does not have sufficient cash resources to repay the advance, management determined to take a charge for the full amount of such outstanding advances.
14
Interest
The Company calculates interest in accordance with the respective note payable. For the three months ending March 31, 2006 we took a charge of $ 42,152 against $732 for the comparative period of 2005. The significant increase mirrors the increase liabilities, which the company has assumed as well as calculated interest on all loan notes.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At March 31, 2006, the Company had $450,430 in cash, as opposed to $262,446 in cash at December 31, 2005. Cash requirements for total operations for the quarter-ended March 31, 2006 were $4,002,744. Management estimates that cash requirements for the second quarter 2006 will be between $2 million to $3.5 million. As of the date of this report, the Company does not currently have available resources sufficient to cover the expected cash requirements through the end of the second quarter 2006 or the balance of the year. As a result, there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business without obtaining additional financing. Management's plans for maintaining Company operations and continued existence include selling additional equity securities and borrowing additional funds to pay operational expenses with enhanced efforts to market and sell Company products. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of Common Stock or borrow additional funds. The Company's inability to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and the Company's ability to continue in existence. If our losses continue and we are unable to secure additional financing, we may ultimately be required to seek protection from creditors under applicable bankruptcy laws.
At March 31, 2006, the Company had total assets of $872,640 compared to total assets of $1,568,533 at December 31, 2005. The decrease is mainly due to provisions made against advances to XL Generation Canada Inc., an operational agent based in Montreal, providing financial and accounting services for the bureau liaison in Montreal, Canada.
At March 31, 2006, the Company had total current liabilities of $3,983,351. The liabilities are mainly due to (i) accrued operational costs; (ii) loan notes from shareholders and suppliers; and (iii) warranty costs, in particular for replacement of fields in Vancouver, Canada and Interlaken, Switzerland, of an aggregate of $500,000.
The prepaid expenses and sundry current assets are composed of accounts receivable $169,872, security deposit for the New York office $15,967 and subscription receivable $38,385 for a total of $224,224 at March 31, 2006.
Since its formation, XL Generation AG has received advances from Mr. Albert Beerli, a stockholder and (since March 2006) director, to cover the general overhead and running costs of XL Generation AG's offices in Zug, Switzerland. The total balance of amounts advanced as of March 31, 2006 was equal to $676,873 (the same as of December 31, 2005).
Between April 2005 and September 2005, Capex Investments Limited (which is affiliated with Capex Investments (Canada) Limited) loaned the Company $1,500,000. On September 12, 2005, Capex Investments Limited entered into a Loan Agreement with the Company, pursuant to which Capex Investments Limited loaned the Company an additional $500,000.
During the first quarter of 2006 the Company received an advance of approximately $478,000 on future finance initiatives.
In the first quarter of 2006, the Company focused considerable resources on further developing its outdoor turf products. In addition, the Company also experienced increased costs of sales and marketing, employee travel and operational expenses in connection with entering into new sales agreements.
The financial conditions of the Company raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plan for the Company's continued existence includes selling additional stock through private placements and borrowing additional funds to pay overhead expenses while maintaining marketing efforts to raise the Company’s sales volume. The future success of the Company is dependent upon its ability to achieve profitable operations, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of Common Stock or borrow additional funds. The inability of the Company to obtain additional cash could have a material adverse effect on its financial position, results of operations and its ability to continue as a going concern.

ITEM 3. Control and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on their evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions on required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms. There have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the Company’s most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Prospective Corporate Structure Modification
In order to improve the efficiency of the Company and to adapt to new markets, the Board of Directors is considering the development of a Company corporate structure modification plan (the “Plan”).
