RAINCHIEF ENERGY INC. |
Notes to the Unaudited Interim Consolidated Financial Statements |
June 30, 2010 |
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars) |
NOTE 1 – NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
Rainchief Energy Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated on December 28, 2000 under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. The Company changed its name from Black Diamond Brands Corporation to Rainchief Energy Inc. on November 21, 2008. The Company has no active operations and is currently analyzing project opportunities.
The Company carried on its oil and gas exploration, and wine and spirit distribution operations through its wholly-owned subsidiaries. During the year ended December 31, 2009, the Company disposed of its interests in these subsidiaries.
While these consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the assumption that the Company is a going concern and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business, certain events and conditions cast substantial doubt on this assumption. The Company continues to incur significant operating losses and has no current source of revenue. As at June 30, 2010, the Company has a consolidated deficit of $3,005,008 and a working capital deficiency of $116,964.
The Company’s ability to continue operations is uncertain and is dependent upon generating profitable operating, maintaining current financing obligations and obtaining new sources of financing. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. Although the Company has arranged private placements of units raising gross proceeds of US$182,200 in 2010 (Note 7(b) and Note 8) and has been successful in obtaining financing in the past, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful with future financing ventures in light of the current economic climate.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments to the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities, which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue operations.
These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles and follow the same accounting policies and principles as disclosed in the Company’s most recent audited annual financial statements. Accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Certain items in the prior periods’ financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the financial statement presentation adopted in the current period. Such reclassifications are for presentation purposes only and have no effect on prior periods’ net loss and deficit.
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Future Accounting Change–International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)
In February 2008, the CICA announced that Canadian GAAP for publicly accountable enterprises will be replaced by IFRS for fiscal years beginning on or after January 01, 2011. Companies will be required to provide IFRS comparative information for the previous fiscal year. Accordingly, the conversion from Canadian GAAP to IFRS will be applicable to the Company’s reporting for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011, with restatement of comparative information presented. The financial reporting impact of the transition to IFRS on the Company’s consolidated financial statements cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

The total amount of claim against the Company was US$50,625 (C$53,607). The company recorded a contingent liability for this amount as at March 31, 2009.In December 2009 the copyright holder filed a claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia in the amount of $60,750.

NOTE 9 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks:
a) | Fair Values |
| |
| The carrying values of cash, bank indebtedness, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to and from related parties approximate their fair value as at the balance sheet date. |
| |
b) | Liquidity Risk |
| |
| Liquidity risk refers to the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is dependent upon on the availability of credit from its suppliers and its ability to generate sufficient funds from equity and debt financing to meet current and future obligations. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company. |
| |
c) | Credit Risks |
| |
| Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counter party’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. Management considers that risks related to credit are not significant to the Company at this time. |
| |
d) | Interest rate risk |
| |
| Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Management considers that risks related to interest are not significant to the Company at this time. Amounts owed from and to related parties are non-interest bearing. |
| |
e) | Foreign Exchange Risk |
| |
| The Company operates in Canada and the United States and some of its material expenditures are payable in U.S. dollars. The Company is therefore subject to currency exchange risk arising from the degree of volatility of changes in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. |
| |
| As at June 30, 2010, the Company had the following financial instruments in U.S. dollars: |
| | US$ | |
Cash | | 6,883 | |
Accounts Payable and Accrued Liabilities | | (32,633 | ) |
| | (25,750 | ) |

NOTE 10 – CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
The Company’s objective for managing its capital structure is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to ensure it has the financial capacity, liquidity and flexibility to fund its on-going operations and capital expenditures including investment in resource properties it has or may acquire.
The Company manages its share capital as capital, which as at June 30, 2010 totalled $2,521,643 (December 31, 2009 - $2,241,445). At this time the Company’s access to the debt market is limited and it relies on equity issuances and the support of shareholders to fund its investments in capital assets and resource properties. The Company monitors capital to maintain a sufficient working capital position to fund annualized administrative expenses and capital investments.
As at June 30, 2010 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $116,964. The Company will issue shares and may from time to time adjust its capital spending to maintain or adjust the capital structure. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain debt or equity capital in the case of operating cash deficits.
The Company’s share capital is not subject to external restrictions. The Company has not paid or declared any dividends since the date of incorporation, nor are any contemplated in the foreseeable future. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the period ended June 30, 2010.
