(a development stage company)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
As of January 31, 2010
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ORGANIZATION
Organization
ASPIRE JAPAN, INC. (f/k/a Dream Media, Inc.) (“the Company”) was incorporated on February 2, 2005 in the State of Delaware. In September 2006, the Company became actively engaged in raising capital in order to implement its business plan to deliver products from American sources directly to the Japanese consumer in the form of mail-order business. In August 2008, after accumulating over $2 million, the Company decided to abandon the mail-order business. Then, the Company entered into the Intellectual Property Rights Trading Business. In August 2008, the Company was unsuccessful in a business transaction for the Intellectual Property Rights Trading. The Company still intends to generate revenue and profits with the Intellectual Property Rights Trading Business at this point. The Company has not had any signif icant operations or activities from inception; accordingly, the Company is deemed to be in the development stage.
Use of Estimates:
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those results.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 605 - Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements. In all cases, revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured.
Cash and Cash Equivalents, and Credit Risk:
For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts with maturities of 90 days or less and which are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties, as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying balance sheet.
The Company maintains a portion of its deposits in a financial institution that insures its deposits with the FDIC insurance up to $250,000 per depositor and deposits in excess of such insured amounts represent a credit risk to the Company. At January 31, 2010 and January 31, 2009 the Company had $0 in cash that was uninsured. In addition, at January 31, 2010 and 2009, the Company had total cash of $0 and $138, respectively in a Japanese bank which is uninsured.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of five years.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Total advertising costs charged to operations for the years ended January 31, 2010 and 2009 and the period February 2, 2005 (Inception) to January 31, 2010 amounted to $0, $0, and $156,562 respectively.
Reclassification of Prior Period Accounts
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
Going Concern
The Company's financial statements have been presented on the basis that it is a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a net loss of $3,485,479 from inception, a working capital deficiency of $1,803,782 and a stockholders’ deficit of $1,803,307 as of January 31, 2010 and used cash in operations of $1,640,289 from inception. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management continues to actively seek additional sources of capital to fund current and future operations. There is no assurance that the Company will be successful in continuing to raise additional capital and establish probab le or proven reserves. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.
Stock Compensation
The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation for share based payments to employees. The Company follows FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 505 for share based payments to Non-Employees.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments including prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, loans and notes payable, and loans payable-related party approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of the Company is the United States Dollar. The financial statements of the Company are translated to United States dollars using year-end exchange rates as to assets and liabilities and average exchange rates as to revenues and expenses. Capital accounts are translated at their historical exchange rates when the capital transaction occurred. Net gains and losses resulting from foreign exchange translations are included in the statements of operations and stockholders’ equity as other comprehensive income (loss).
Earnings Per Share:
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period as required by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) under FASB Accounting Standards Codification No. 260 - Earnings Per Share. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings. As of January 31, 2010 and 2009 there were no common share equivalents outstanding.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under FASB Codification Topic 740-10-25 (“ASC 740-10-25”). Under ASC 740-10-25, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Under ASC 740-10-25, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 860 – Transfers and Servicing. FASB ASC No. 860 improves the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a reporting entity provides in its financial statements about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance, and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement, if any, in transferred financial assets. FASB ASC No. 860 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of FASB ASC No. 860 wil l have on its financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 810 – Consolidation. FASB ASC No. 810 is effective as of the beginning of each reporting entity’s first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009, for interim periods within that first annual reporting period, and for interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of FASB ASC No. 810 will have on its financial statements.
In June 2009, the FASB issued Financial Accounting Standards Codification No. 105-GAAP. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“Codification”) will be the single source of authoritative nongovernmental U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Rules and interpretive releases of the SEC under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. FASB ASC No. 105 is effective for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. All existing accounting standards are superseded as described in FASB ASC No. 105. All other accounting literature not included in the Codification is nonauthoritative. The Adoption of FASB ASC No. 105 did not have an impact on our financial statements.
In October 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables. The ASU significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. The ASU will be effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, provided that the guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2009-13 to have any effect on its financial statements upon its required adoption on January 1, 2011.
NOTE 2 - PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
During the years ended January 31, 2010 and 2009, and the period February 2, 2005 (Inception) to January 31, 2010 the Company recorded depreciation expense of $0, $1,598 and $2,429 respectively.

NOTE 5 - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS SALES AGREEMENT
On August 13, 2008, we entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Sales Agreement (the “Eiwa Agreement”) with Eiwa Kokudo Kankyo, Inc. (“Eiwa”). Pursuant to the Eiwa Agreement, we agreed to pay approximately $5,454,545 (equal to 600 Million YEN) to Eiwa for the Intellectual Property of the Aqua-make system. In addition, we are entitled to sell the rights of this Intellectual Property to the third party upon signing the agreement. Pursuant to the agreement the Company entered into an agreement with EIWA to pay the purchase price in the following manner:
1. | August 29, 2008, 50 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $454,545) |
| |
2. | September 12, 2008, 50 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $454,545) |
3. | September 30, 2008, 200 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $1,818,182) |
| |
4. | January 31, 2009, 300 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $2,727,273) |
On November 27, 2008, we notified Eiwa that we were unilaterally canceling the agreement. We have not made any payments and we are in default under the payment terms of the agreement. If Eiwa does not agree to cancel the agreement, we might be required to make the payments as per the agreement. To date, are not aware of Eiwa pursuing any remedies associated with the cancellation. It is very possible that we will incur a material liability as a result of this cancelled agreement if Eiwa pursues legal remedies.
The reason no liability has been recorded for the cancelled purchase agreement with Eiwa is because we have not recorded any amounts due under the intangible purchase agreement as no property has been received – we do not receive the IP until all payments have been made. Since no payments have been made and no property has been received, this is disclosed as a commitment only.
Thereafter, on August 15, 2008, we entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Sales Agreement with Global Investment Service, Inc. (“GIS”) to sell the Intellectual Property of the Aqua-make system to GIS for $14,545,455 (equal to 1.6 Billion YEN). Pursuant to the GIS Agreement, we have the right of first refusal to buy Intellectual Property back from GIS in the event that GIS agrees to sell the intellectual property within three years from August 15, 2008 by issuing 3.2 million shares of our common stock. We also need to agree to purchase the Intellectual Property to exercise the buy back option. As part of such conditions, we have agreed not to split our stock for the next three years. Pu rsuant to the agreement, GIS entered into a note with us to pay the purchase price in the following manner:
1. | August 29, 2008, 200 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $1,818,182) |
| |
2. | September 30, 2008, 400 Million Japanese Yen (Approximately $3,636,354) |
3. | January 31, 2009, 1 Billion Japanese Yen (Approximately $9,090,909) |
Pursuant to the agreement, we are required to pay a fixed royalty amount of 13,340,000 Japanese Yen (Approximately $121,273) monthly to GIS for the license to operate the business and to use our best efforts to market the product in the United States. As of April 21, 2010, we have not made any royalty payments.
As of October 31, 2008, we received payments of approximately $84,949 and Global Investment Services, Inc. is in default under the payment terms of the agreement. On November 30, 2008, we received notice of termination of the agreement from Global Investment Services, Inc. As of January 31, 2009, we have recorded a gain in liquidated damages of $84,949.

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
Our accountant is Webb & Company, P.A. Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm. We do not presently intend to change accountants. At no time have there been any disagreements with such accountants regarding any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) (the Company’s principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting.
The management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company. Our internal control system was designed to, in general, provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and board regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements, but because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2010. The framework used by management in making that assessment was the criteria set forth in the document entitled “ Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on that assessment, our management has determined that as of January 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was not effective for the purposes for which it is intended based on the following material weaknesses:
- We do not have a system in place to ensure all of our consulting agreements are timely reconciled to the financial statements.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
We made the following changes in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report, fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2010 that materially affected our internal control over financial reporting.
We developed a plan to ensure that all information was recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and we will continue to educate our management personnel to comply with the disclosure requirements and financial reporting controls necessary and we will increase management oversight of accounting and reporting functions in the future.
The following summarizes the occupation and business experience during the past five years for our sole officer and directors.
