Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Regional Tire Distributors (Calgary) Inc., which comprise the balance sheets as of February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012, and the related statements of operations, retained earnings and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained in our audits is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Regional Tire Distributors (Calgary) Inc. as of February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises.
Basis of Accounting
As more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements, the Company’s policy is to prepare its financial statements on the basis of Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises which differ from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter. Information relating to the nature and effect of such differences is presented in note 14 to the financial statements.

REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (CALGARY) INC.
Notes to the Financial Statements
February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012
1. Nature of operations
The Company was incorporated under the Alberta Business Corporations Act on October 26, 1987 and operated a wholesale tire distribution business under its original name as South Alta Tire Distributors Ltd. The company changed its name to Regional Tire Distributors (Calgary) Inc. on October 5, 2010.
2. Summary of significant accounting policies
Basis of presentation
These financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian accounting standards for private enterprises.
Revenue recognition
Revenue is recognized when the goods have been delivered, the services have been completed, the transaction has been accepted by the customer and collection is reasonably assured. The Company reports its revenue net of returns, sales discounts and rebates to customers.
Interest revenue is recognized on an annual basis as it is earned.
Rental revenue earned under a lease agreement is recognized as revenue over the term of the underlying lease. All rent increases based on escalation clauses in lease agreements are accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases. Property taxes, other operating cost recoveries, and other incidental income are recognized on an accrual basis.
Vendor Rebates and Allowances
The Company participates in various purchase rebate programs with its major tire vendors including early payment incentives and volume purchase rebates based on defined levels of purchase volume. These arrangements enable the Company to earn rebates that reduce the cost of merchandise purchased. Vendor rebates and allowances are accrued as earned. Vendor rebates and allowances earned are initially recorded as a reduction in the cost of merchandise inventories and are included in operations (as a reduction of cost of goods sold) in the period the related product is sold. Accordingly, the amount of vendor rebates included in operations in any year could include rebates earned in a prior year.
Allowance for doubtful accounts
The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects management’s best estimate of losses on the accounts receivable balances. The company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts that is estimated based on a variety of factors including accounts receivable aging, historical experience and other currently available information, including events such as customer bankruptcy and current economic conditions. Interest is charged on overdue account receivable balances. A provision is recorded in the period in which the receivable is deemed uncollectible.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The cost of inventories comprises all costs of purchase and other costs incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition
7
REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (CALGARY) INC.
Notes to the Financial Statements
February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012
including volume rebates and allowances from vendors. The cost of inventories is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less costs necessary to complete the sale. Inventory is reduced for the estimated losses due to obsolescence. This reduction is determined for groups of products based on purchases in the recent past and/or expected future demand.
Property and equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated amortization.
Amortization is calculated at the following annual rates:
Office equipment | - 20% declining balance basis | |
Computer equipment | - 30%-100% declining balance basis | |
Shop equipment | - 20% declining balance basis | |
Automotive equipment | - 30% declining balance basis | |
Leasehold improvement | - 5 year straight line basis | |
Fencing | - 10% declining balance basis |
Property and equipment are tested for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset is not recoverable when it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected from its use and eventual disposal. In such a case, an impaired loss must be recognized and is equivalent to the excess of the carrying amount of a long-lived asset over its fair value.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is allocated as of the date of the business combination to the Company’s reporting units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the business combination.
Goodwill is tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired. The impairment test consists of a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit to which goodwill is assigned with its carrying amount. Any impairment loss in the carrying amount compared with the fair value is charged to income in the year in which the loss is recognized.
Income taxes
The Company uses the future income taxes method to account for income taxes. Under this method, future 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. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.
Contingent liabilities
A contingent liability is recognized when the Company has a present obligation as a result of a past event, when it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the
8
REGIONAL TIRE DISTRIBUTORS (CALGARY) INC.
Notes to the Financial Statements
February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012
obligation, and when a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. A contingent liability is discounted using a current pre-tax rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability and is re-measured at fair value at each reporting date.
Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises 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 more subjective estimates included in these financial statements are the determination of allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, valuation of inventory, estimated useful lives of property and equipment for purposes of calculating amortization and valuation of contingent liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Financial Instruments
Measurement of financial instruments
The company initially measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value, except for certain non-arm’s length transactions. The Company subsequently measures all its financial assets and financial liabilities at amortized cost. Changes in fair value are recognized in net income.
Financial assets measured at amortized cost include cash, accounts receivable, due from corporate shareholder and loans receivable from related parties.
Financial liabilities measured at amortized cost include accounts payable and accrued liabilities, management remuneration payable, due to corporate shareholders, shareholder’s loan and loans payable to related parties.
Impairment
Financial assets measured at cost are tested for impairment when there are indicators of impairment. The amount of the write-down is recognized in net income. The previously recognized impairment loss may be reversed to the extent of the improvement, directly or by adjusting the allowance account, provided it is no greater than the amount that would have been reported at the date of the reversal had the impairment not been recognized previously. The amount of the reversal is recognized in net income.
Transaction costs
Transaction costs relating to financial instruments that are measured subsequently at fair value are recognized in operations in the year in which they are incurred. For instruments that are subsequently measured at amortized cost, the amount initially recognized is adjusted for transaction costs directly attributable to the origination, acquisition, issuance or assumption.

Notes to the Financial Statements
February 28, 2014, February 28, 2013 and February 29, 2012
14. Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises and US GAAP Reconciliation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises. The material differences between the accounting policies used by the Company under Canadian Accounting Standards for Private Enterprises and US GAAP are disclosed below.
a) Income Taxes
Under US GAAP, the Company recognizes a tax benefit if it is more likely than not that a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return will be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities based on the merits of the position. The tax benefit recognized in the financial statements is measured based on the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50 per cent likely of being realized upon settlement. The difference between a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return and the benefit recognized and measured pursuant to this guidance represents an unrecognized tax benefit. An unrecognized tax benefit is disclosed as a long-term liability unless the Company anticipates a payment or receipt within one year in respect of the position. As a result of implementing these provisions there was no material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Under US GAAP the Company is required to calculate and record corporate income taxes based on enacted corporate income tax rates. Under ASPE, the Company had calculated and recognized corporate income taxes using substantively enacted corporate income tax rates. For the Company, enacted and substantively enacted corporate tax rates are the same; as a result no differences to calculated and recognized corporate income taxes arise. There are no material differences between the Company’s statutory income tax rate and the effective tax rate.
b) Variable Interest Entities
The Company has performed a review of the entities with which it conducts business and has concluded that there are no entities that are required to be consolidated or variable interests that are required to be disclosed under the requirements of ASC Topic 810, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.
c) Preferred shares
Under US GAAP, the Company recognizes preferred shares at stated capital value as part of equity if there is not an unconditional obligation for the Company to redeem the shares by transferring an asset on a specified or determinable date or upon an event that is certain to occur. For the Company, there is no unconditional obligation for the preferred shares to be redeemed at the option of the holder at January 31, 2012, January 31, 2013 and January 31, 2014, therefore the stated value of the preferred shares has been reported as an equity component.
d) Comprehensive Income
US GAAP requires the presentation of a Statement of Comprehensive Income. The Company has no items that would cause such presentation to differ from the amounts presented as Net Income in the accompanying financials statements.
