1. | Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business |
Sound Revolution, Inc. (the "Company"), was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. While the Company sponsored one marketing event to promote its intended purpose in fiscal year 2004 and has begun to realize nominal revenues from its website, it continues to be in the development stage. The Company is planning to pursue the business of providing tools and services for music distribution and promotion and is currently designing a website for this purpose. The Company has two wholly-owned subsidiaries: (i) Sound Revolution Recordings, Inc., which was incorporated in British Columbia, Canada on June 20, 2001, for the purpose of carrying on music marketing services in British Columbia, and (ii) Charity Tunes, Inc., which was incorporated in the State of Delaware on June 27, 2005, for the purpose of operating a website for the distribution of songs online.
Going Concern
As shown in the financial statements, the Company is in the development stage and has not yet developed a commercially viable product or generated significant revenues from their intended business activities. In addition, the Company has incurred losses since inception resulting in a net accumulated deficit of $928,275 at November 30, 2008, and has used cash of $438,726 in operating activities since inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company will need additional working capital to continue or to be successful in any future business activities. Therefore, continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the additional working capital necessary to accomplish its objective. Management plans to seek debt or equity financing, or a combination of both, to raise the necessary working capital.
The Company expects that its cash requirements over the next 12 months will not exceed $2,000,000. A major stockholder former CFO of the Company and a company controlled by that person have agreed to make loans to the Company ($558,854 has been drawn through November 30, 2008) to meet part of its capital requirements for that period. For the balance of working capital it requires for the next 12 months, the Company plans to generate cash from the sale of stock to the public and existing stockholders. When possible, the Company plans to issue stock for professional services it may require, except for services provided by the Company’s independent auditor.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company fail in any of the above objectives and is unable to operate for the coming year.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Principles (Continued)
Music Rights
In February 2003, the Company purchased for $298 ($400 Canadian) the rights to represent a musician artist in the release of his first musical album. The artist is a former officer of the Company. Music rights include non-inclusive use of and distribution rights to the songs in various multi-media formats from the musician's first album. The music rights will be tested at least annually for impairment. There has been no impairment of music rights in any of the periods presented. The cost of the music rights will be expensed upon the release of the musician's first album and realization of the related royalties. The cost of music rights will not be carried beyond expiration of the license term on August 31, 2009. Changes in foreign exchange rates since acquisition increased the carrying cost to $342.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with FAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” management tests long-lived assets to be held and used for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. No impairment of intangible assets was recorded during 2008 and 2007.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment, consisting primarily of office equipment, is stated at cost and is depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated lives of the related assets of five years.
Website Development Costs
Website development costs are accounted for in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force EITF 00-2, “Accounting for Web Site Development Costs,” with applicable guidance from AICPA statement of Position 98-1, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use.” The Company’s internal web site development processes are relatively short-term in nature. The costs incurred in the preliminary stages of development are expenses as incurred. Once an application has reached the development stage, internal and external costs, if direct and incremental, will be capitalized and amortized, on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, if management believes such costs are significant. Maintenance and enhancement costs are typically expensed as incurred unless such costs relate to substantial upgrades and enhancements to the web site that result in added functionality in which case the costs will be capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis, over the estimated useful life, if management believes such costs are significant.
Web site development costs are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of one year.
Revenue Recognition and Cost of Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from the online sale music in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” The Company accounts for revenue as a principal using the guidance in EITF 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal vs. Net as an Agent”. Revenue consists of the sale of music and is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product is shipped, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
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. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the useful life and recoverability of long lived assets, stock-based compensation and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Principles (Continued)
Notes Payable to Related Parties
The Company has notes payable to a related party that was bearing interest at 10%. Interest was charged and was payable quarterly on any outstanding balance beginning on September 1, 2004 to February 29, 2008, (prior to that date the borrowings from the related party were non-interest bearing). Starting March 1, 2008, the notes are unsecured, non-interest bearing and payable on demand.
Research and Development Expenses
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Earnings Per Share
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 128, "Earnings per Share". SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company’s outstanding stock options were excluded since their effect is anti-dilutuve due to the Company’s net loss
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with SFAS No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.
In July 2006, the FASB issued Financial Interpretation No. 48 (“FIN 48”), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, as an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS 109”). This Interpretation clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with SFAS 109 and prescribes a recognition threshold of more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination. Measurement of the tax uncertainty occurs if the recognition threshold has been met. This Interpretation also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2006. Differences between the amounts recognized in the statements of financial position prior to the adoption of FIN 48 and the amounts reported after adoption should be accounted for as a cumulative-effect adjustment recorded to the beginning balance of retained earnings. The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact to the Company. Since the Company has not filed a US federal income tax returnsince inception all tax years remain open to IRS audit.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Financial instruments consist of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses, and the note payable to related parties. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying amounts due to their short-term nature and/or approximation of current market interest rates.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments,”,using the fair value method.
All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2008 COMPARED TO THE NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2007, AND FOR THE PERIOD FROM JUNE 4, 2001 (DATE OF INCEPTION) TO NOVEMBER 30, 2008.
Revenue:
During the nine months ended November 30, 2008, we realized total revenue of $136 compared to $645 for the nine months ended November 30, 2007 and we incurred a net loss of $156,150 for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 compared to a net loss of $269,718 for the same period in 2007. During the three months ended November 30, 2008, our total revenue were $0 as compared to $171 in revenue for the three months ended November 30, 2007. Also during the three months ended November 30, 2008, we incurred a net loss of $8,792 as compared to the net loss of $71,840 incurred during the same period in 2007.
From June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 we have accumulated revenue of $5,371, total expenses of $1,004,593, and a net loss of $928,275. Although we have realized nominal revenue from website activity, we still consider ourselves to be in the development stage for financial statement presentation.
Expenses:
The major components of our expenses for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 are management fees, professional fees, depreciation and amortization, and general administrative expenses which include telephone fees, couriers, postage, and corporate fees including corporate expenses, software development and office supplies.
Our management fees for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 were $25,000 compared to $47,700 for the same period ended November 30, 2007. For the three months ended November 30, 2008, our management fees were $0 compared to $15,900 for the same period in 2007. The decrease is due to the resignation of Garry Newman as our director, and to the fact that we have not yet completed any compensation arrangements regarding the compensation of our sole officer and director, Catherine LeBlanc. Our total accumulated management fees from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 are $171,281.
For the nine months ended November 30, 2008 we did not incur any expense related to director’s fees, whereas we spent $34,260 on director’s fees during the nine months ended November 30, 2007. Our director’s fees for the three months ended November 30, 2008 were $0 compared to $22,988 for the same period ended November 30, 2007. Our total accumulated director’s fees from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 are $22,485.
We incurred no interest expense during the nine months ended November 30, 2008. For the nine months ended November 30, 2007 our interest expense amounted to $24,904. Our interest expense for the three months ended November 30, 2008 was $0 compared to $9,265 for the same period ended November 30, 2007. The drop in the interest expense was the result of the latest amendment to the loan agreement between Penny Green, Bacchus Entertainment Ltd. and us. Our total accumulated interest expense from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 is $61,977.
For the nine months ended November 30, 2008 our marketing expenses came to $0 as compared to $12,171 for the same period of 2007. During the three months ended November 30, 2008 we also did not incur any marketing expenses, whereas we spent $7,639 on marketing during the period ended November 30, 2007. The decrease in marketing expenses during the current fiscal year resulted from a general decrease in our marketing activities in an effort to reduce our operating costs. Our total accumulated marketing expense from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 is $56,972.
Our general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 were $8,223 compared to $47,121 for the nine months ended November 30, 2007. During the three months ended November 30, 2008 our general and administrative expenses were $891, compared to $1,981 for the three months ended November 30, 2007. The decrease in our general and administrative expenses during the current fiscal year is mainly the result of decreased software development costs. Our accumulated general and administrative expenses from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 are $157,579.
We did not have any research and development expenses for the nine months ended November 30, 2008, whereas we expended $30,273 on research and development in the same period of 2007 which mainly related to the development cost on our website. Our research and development costs for the three months ended November 30, 2008 and for the three months ended November 30, 2007 were $0. Our accumulated research and development costs from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 are $77,629.
For the nine months ended November 30, 2008 we spent $75,648 on professional fees as compared to $19,193 for the same period of 2007. Our professional fees for the three months ended November 30, 2008 were $6,541 compared to $183 for the same period ended November 30, 2007. Our professional fees are mainly attributable to our auditor costs. Our total accumulated professional fees from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 are $229,582.
During the nine months ended November 30, 2008 we had no share based compensation expense, whereas we spent $25,670 on share based compensation during same period in 2007. We had no share based compensation during the three months ended November 30, 2008 or during the same period ended November 30, 2007. From June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 we issued $109,726 in stock based compensation. The decrease in stock based compensation during our past quarterly period is the result of decreased activities and the corresponding issuance of stock as payment for consulting services, promotional services, research & development services, and for capital equipment.
Net Losses:
We incurred a net loss of $156,150 and a loss per share of $0.60 for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 as compared to a net loss of $269,718 and a loss per share of $1.05 for the same period in 2007. For the three months ended November 30, 2008 our net loss was $8,792 and our loss per share was $0.03, compared to our net loss of $71,840 and loss per share of $0.28 for the same period in 2007. Our net loss from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 is $928,275.
Liquidity and Capital Resources:
As of November 30, 2008, we had cash of $722. We intend to continue to make financial investments in marketing, digital music rights acquisitions, technology, software development and website development. We expect to incur substantial losses over the next year.
As a result of our operating loss of $1,006,818 from inception on June 4, 2001 through November 30, 2008, a gain on the write off of debt equal to $88,718; a write off of investment equal to $10,000, and a loss of $175 incurred on the sale of our subsidiary, Buzz Tub Media Inc., we generated a net deficit accumulated during the development stage of $928,275. We met our cash requirements during the development stage through the receipt of $497,822 advanced by Penny Green, our former Director and Chief Financial Officer, and by Bacchus Entertainment Ltd. a company 100% owned by Penny Green, as well as $63,622 received in exchange for the sales of our common stock in private placements. We have generated nominal revenue in this period, and realized a negative cash flow from operations of $115,356 for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 compared to a negative cash flow from operations of $157,105 for the same period in 2007. From June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008, we have realized a negative cash flow from operations of $438,726. We have achieved liquidity from June 4, 2001 (date of inception) to November 30, 2008 principally from $497,822 advanced by Penny Green and Bacchus Entertainment.
On November 30, 2004, Penny Green and Bacchus Entertainment entered into an agreement with us whereby the net amount of monies borrowed by us from Penny Green and Bacchus Entertainment would all convert to a loan owed by us to Bacchus and that Bacchus would make further loans to us from time to time with interest accruing at the annual rate of 10% up to an aggregate of $70,000. On November 30, 2004, pursuant to an addendum, the parties agreed that interest on the loan monies would accrue quarterly and would be due within 45 days of the end of each quarter. On January 1, 2007 the loan agreement was again amended so that additional amounts loaned to us by Penny Green or Bacchus Entertainment will be subject to the loan agreement and so monthly payments will not be required until September 1, 2007. On June 30, 2007 this agreement was further amended to extend the payment period to January 1, 2008. On January 1, 2008, this agreement was further amended to waive the January 1, 2008 payment deadline and to make the payment due upon demand.
On May 30, 2008, Penny Green and Bacchus Entertainment entered into an agreement with us whereby all monies and interest owed by us to Bacchus Entertainment were assigned to Penny Green. Under the agreement the parties agreed that effective as March 1, 2008, no further interest will be charged on any outstanding balance of the monies loaned and we shall pay the full amount of the loan on demand to Penny Green.
Our losses for the nine months ended November 30, 2008 were $156,150 or $17,350 per month compared to $269,718 or approximately $29,969 per month for the same period 2007.
We estimate that our expenses over the next 12 months (beginning in November 2008) will be approximately as follows:
Planned Expenses | Amount |
Legal and Accounting | $30,000 |
Accounts Payable | $35,492 |
Note Payable to Related Parties | $558,854 |
General Administration and working capital (includes office supplies and expenses, travel) | $20,000 |
Total | $644,346 |
As of November 30, 2008, we had cash of $722 and we believe that we need approximately an additional $644,346 to meet our basic minimum capital requirements over the next 12 months.. We intend to seek additional financing of approximately $1,000,000 to cover our current debt. We will consider strategic alternatives to our current business model in order to attract financing. For example, we may decide to enter into a reverse merger agreement.
If we are unable to raise necessary capital to meet our capital requirements, we may not be able to pay our auditor which could result in a failure to comply with accounting disclosure requirements.
The effect of inflation on our operating results has not been significant. Our operations are located primarily in Canada. There are no legal or practical restrictions on our ability to transfer funds between Sound Revolution and our subsidiary companies.
Research and Development
During the nine and three months ended November 30, 2008, we incurred no expenses related to research and development. We do not anticipate that we will incur any expenses related to research and development over the next 12 months, unless we significantly change our business or enter into a reverse merger transaction.
Purchase of Significant Equipment
None.
Employees
We currently have no employees. Catherine, LeBlanc, our sole Director, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer, Secretary and Treasurer currently provides her services to us as a consultant and without remuneration. We anticipate entering into a consultancy agreement with Ms. LeBlanc in due course.
On September 8, 2008, Robin Ram resigned as our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director. On September 14, 2008, we accepted a resignation of Penny Green, who was our Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer.
On September 15, 2008, Catherine LeBlanc was appointed as our sole Director, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer, Secretary and Treasurer. The terms of Ms. LeBlanc’s engagement and compensation for services as an officer and Director have not been finalized as of the date of this report. Also on September 15, 2008, we moved our executive office to Barrie, Ontario.
Subsequent Events
During the three month period ended November 30, 2008, the Company was engaged in ongoing discussions regarding a potential merger agreement whereby the Company would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the potential merger candidate. As of January 14, 2009, although discussions regarding the potential merger continue, there is no agreement between the Company and the potential merger candidate regarding the merger.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our critical accounting policies, including their underlying assumptions and judgments, are disclosed in the Notes to the consolidated Financial Statements. These policies have been consistently applied in all material respects and address such matters as revenue recognition and depreciation methods. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the 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. The accounting treatment of a particular transaction is specifically dictated by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, with no need for the application of management’s judgment. There are also areas in which management’s judgment in selecting any viable alternative would not produce a materially different result. The following are what management considers Sound Revolution’s critical accounting policies to be:
Revenue Recognition and Cost of Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from the online sale music in accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” The Company accounts for revenue as a principal using the guidance in EITF 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal vs. Net as an Agent”. Revenue consists of the sale of music and is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product is shipped, and collectibility is reasonably assured.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with SFAS No. 123R “Share Based Payments” using the fair value method.
All transactions in which goods or services are of consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.
Known Material Trends and Uncertainties
As of November 30, 2008 we have no off balance sheet transactions that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
We believe that the above discussion contains a number of forward-looking statements. Our actual results and our actual plan of operations may differ materially from what is stated above. Factors which may cause our actual results or our actual plan of operations to vary include, among other things, decisions of our board of Directors not to pursue a specific course of action based on its re-assessment of the facts or new facts, changes in the online music sales or music distribution industry, or general economic conditions.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk.
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized,and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2008. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ended February 29, 2008, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
Changes in internal control
We have not been able to implement any of the recommended changes to our internal control over financial reporting listed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 29, 2008. As such, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act, during the quarter ended November 30, 2008, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
