This Registration Statement covers the resale by our selling shareholders of up to 4,005,640 shares of common stock previously issued to such selling shareholders. The offering price has been estimated solely for the purpose of computing the amount of the registration fee in accordance with Rule 457(o). Our common stock is not traded on any national exchange and in accordance with Rule 457; the offering price was determined by the price of the shares that were sold to our shareholders in a private offering. The price of $0.033 is a fixed price at which the selling security holders may sell their shares until our common stock is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board (“OTCBB”) at which time the shares may be sold at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. There can be no assurance that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, which operates the OTC BB, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved.
The Registrant hereby amends this registration statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this registration statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended or until the registration statement shall become effective on such date as the Securities and Exchange Commission, acting pursuant to Section 8(a), may determine.
The information in this prospectus is not complete and may be changed. We may not sell these securities until the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission becomes effective. This prospectus is not an offer to sell these securities and we are not soliciting offers to buy these securities in any state where the offer or sale is not permitted. |

Our common stock is presently not traded on any market or securities exchange. The 4,005,640 shares of our common stock can be sold by selling security holders at a fixed price of $0.033 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices.

We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the shares for the selling security holders. There is no assurance that an active trading market for our shares will develop, or, if developed, that it will be sustained. In the absence of a trading market or an active trading market, investors may be unable to liquidate their investment or make any profit from the investment.
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 2 to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of our common stock.

“We,” “us,” “our company,” “our,” “Quinko” and the “Company” refer to the combined business Quinko-Tek International, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, but do not include the shareholders of Quinko-Tek International, Inc.
Business Overview
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 28, 2010. We are a holding company and conduct our operations through our subsidiary in Canada named 152724 Canada Inc. (“CanCo”). CanCo was incorporated in 1986 and is headquartered in Montreal, Canada. It is a wholesaler and importer of hardware for the furniture and cabinet trade.
In August 2011, we completed a private placement offering by selling 4,005,640 shares of common stock to 111 non-U.S. investors for approximately $130,000.
On December 12, 2011, we formed a company named Quinko-Tek Call Corp. (“CallCo”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) whereby CallCo became our wholly owned subsidiary. On the same day, we formed a company named Quinko-Tek Acquisition Corp. (“AcquisitionCo”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) whereby AcquisitionCo becames a wholly owned subsidiary of CallCo.
On January 26, 2012, we completed a series of transaction by entering into a share exchange agreement, rollover agreement, support agreement, and voting and trust exchange agreement with certain parties. As a result, CanCo become our wholly owned subsidiary. See “Corporate History and Structure” of this prospectus.

You should carefully consider the risks described below together with all of the other information included in this prospectus before making an investment decision with regard to our securities. The statements contained in or incorporated herein that are not historic facts are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in or implied by forward-looking statements. If any of the following risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be harmed. In that case, you may lose all or part of your investment.
Risks Relating to Our Business
The effects of the recent global economic slowdown may continue to have a negative impact on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
The recent global economic slowdown has caused disruptions and extreme volatility in global financial markets, increased rates of default and bankruptcy, and declining consumer and business confidence, which has led to decreased levels of consumer spending. These macroeconomic developments have and could continue to negatively impact our business, which depends on the general economic environment and levels of consumer spending in Canada and other parts of the world that affect not only the ultimate consumer, but also retailers. As a result, we may not be able to maintain or increase our sales to existing customers, make sales to new customers, or maintain or improve our earnings from operations as a percentage of net sales. If the global economic slowdown continues for a significant period or continues to worsen, our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows could be materially adversely affected.
We cannot assure you that our growth strategy will be successful which may result in a negative impact on our growth, financial condition, results of operations and cash flow.
One of our strategies is to expand our sourcing and supplier network, as well as to increase our sales to the United States. We cannot assure you that we will be able to successfully overcome the obstacles and establish our products in the United States or expand our sales network. Our inability to implement this growth strategy successfully may have a negative impact on our growth, future financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
We currently do not have any agreement with our suppliers or customers. If these suppliers decide not to provide us products or these customers decide not to purchase products from us, our business operations and financial results will be adversely affected.
We currently do not have any agreement with our suppliers or customers. We do not know if these suppliers or customers will continue to cooperate with us although we have good relationships with them. Also, the terms of the transactions are not guaranteed and may be changed from time to time or subject to negotiation based on supply and demand. If these suppliers decide not to provide us products or these customers decide not to purchase products from us, or if the terms of the transaction negatively change, our revenues and operations will be adversely affected.
If we need additional capital to fund our growing operations, we may not be able to obtain sufficient capital and may be forced to limit the scope of our operations.
If adequate additional financing is not available on reasonable terms, we may not be able to expand our production lines and we would have to modify our business plans accordingly. There is no assurance that additional financing will be available to us.
In connection with our growth strategies, we may experience increased capital needs and accordingly, we may not have sufficient capital to fund our future operations without additional capital investments. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including (i) our profitability; (ii) the release of competitive products by our competition; (iii) the level of our investment in research and development; and (iv) the amount of our capital expenditures, including acquisitions. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain capital in the future to meet our needs.
In recent years, the securities markets in the United States have experienced a high level of price and volume volatility, and the market price of securities of many companies have experienced wide fluctuations that have not necessarily been related to the operations, performances, underlying asset values or prospects of such companies. For these reasons, our securities can also be expected to be subject to volatility resulting from purely market forces over which we will have no control. If we need additional funding we will, most likely, seek such funding in the United States and Canada, and the market fluctuations affect on our stock price could limit our ability to obtain equity financing.
If we cannot obtain additional funding, we may be required to: (i) limit our expansion; (ii) limit our marketing efforts; and (iii) decrease or eliminate capital expenditures. Such reductions could materially adversely affect our business and our ability to compete.
Even if we do find a source of additional capital, we may not be able to negotiate terms and conditions for receiving the additional capital that are favorable to us. Any future capital investments could dilute or otherwise materially and adversely affect the holdings or rights of our existing shareholders. In addition, new equity or convertible debt securities issued by us to obtain financing could have rights, preferences and privileges senior to the units. We cannot give you any assurance that any additional financing will be available to us, or if available, will be on terms favorable to us.
Need for additional employees.
Our future success also depends upon our continuing ability to attract and retain highly qualified personnel. Expansion of our business and the management and operation will require additional managers and employees with industry experience, and our success will be highly dependent on our ability to attract and retain skilled management personnel and other employees. There can be no assurance that we will be able to attract or retain highly qualified personnel. Competition for skilled personnel in our industries is significant. This competition may make it more difficult and expensive to attract, hire and retain qualified managers and employees.
Our future success is dependent, in part, on the performance and continued service of Ira Kroo, our president and director. Without his continued service, we may be forced to interrupt or eventually cease our operations.
Our success depends to a significant degree on the services rendered to us by our key employees. If we fail to attract, train and retain sufficient numbers of these qualified people, our prospects, business, financial condition and results of operations will be materially and adversely affected. In particular, we are heavily dependent on the continued services of Ira Kroo, our president and director. Without his continued service, we may be forced to interrupt or eventually cease our operations. The loss of any key employees, including members of our senior management team, and our inability to attract highly skilled personnel with sufficient experience in our industry could harm our business.
Our inability to protect our intellectual property rights may force us to incur unanticipated costs.
Our success will depend, in part, on our ability to obtain and maintain protection in Canada and the United States for certain intellectual property incorporated into our products. Our intellectual properties may be challenged, narrowed, invalidated or circumvented, which could limit our ability to prevent competitors from marketing similar solutions that limit the effectiveness of our trademark protection and force us to incur unanticipated costs.
We may incur significant costs to be a public company to ensure compliance with U.S corporate governance and accounting requirements and we may not be able to absorb such costs.
We may incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers. We are currently evaluating and monitoring developments with respect to these newly applicable rules, and we cannot predict or estimate the amount of additional costs we may incur or the timing of such costs. In addition, we may not be able to absorb these costs of being a public company which will negatively affect our business operations.
We may not be able to meet the internal control reporting requirements imposed by the SEC resulting in a possible decline in the price of our common stock and our inability to obtain future financing.
As directed by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the SEC adopted rules requiring each public company to include a report of management on the company’s internal controls over financial reporting in its annual reports. Although the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act exempts companies with a public float of less than $75 million from the requirement that our independent registered public accounting firm attest to our financial controls, this exemption does not affect the requirement that we include a report of management on our internal control over financial reporting and does not affect the requirement to include the independent registered public accounting firm’s attestation if our public float exceeds $75 million.
While we expect to expend significant resources in developing the necessary documentation and testing procedures required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, there is a risk that we may not be able to comply timely with all of the requirements imposed by this rule. Regardless of whether we are required to receive a positive attestation from our independent registered public accounting firm with respect to our internal controls, if we are unable to do so, investors and others may lose confidence in the reliability of our financial statements and our stock price and ability to obtain equity or debt financing as needed could suffer.
In addition, in the event that our independent registered public accounting firm is unable to rely on our internal controls in connection with its audit of our financial statements, and in the further event that it is unable to devise alternative procedures in order to satisfy itself as to the material accuracy of our financial statements and related disclosures, it is possible that we would be unable to file our Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC, which could also adversely affect the market for and the market price of our common stock and our ability to secure additional financing as needed.
The lack of public company experience of our management team could adversely impact our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of U.S. Securities Laws.
Our management team lacks public company experience, which could impair our ability to comply with legal and regulatory requirements such as those imposed by Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Our senior management has never had responsibility for managing a publicly traded company. Such responsibilities include complying with federal securities laws and making required disclosures on a timely basis. Our senior management may not be able to implement programs and policies in an effective and timely manner that adequately respond to such increased legal, regulatory compliance and reporting requirements, including the establishing and maintaining of internal controls over financial reporting. Any such deficiencies, weaknesses or lack of compliance could have a materially adverse effect on our ability to comply with the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which is necessary to maintain our public company status. If we were to fail to fulfill those obligations, our ability to continue as a U.S. public company would be in jeopardy in which event you could lose your entire investment in our company.
Failure to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act could subject us to penalties and other adverse consequences.
As a Nevada corporation, we are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which generally prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. Some foreign companies, including some that may compete with our company, may not be subject to these prohibitions. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices may occur from time-to-time in the Angola or any other countries in which we conduct our business. However, our employees or other agents may engage in conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Associated with Our Securities
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our capital stock. And we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends or distributions on our capital stock. We currently intend to retain our future earnings, if any, to support operations and to finance expansion and therefore we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on our common stock in the foreseeable future.
The declaration, payment and amount of any future dividends will be made at the discretion of the board of directors, and will depend upon, among other things, the results of our operations, cash flows and financial condition, operating and capital requirements, and other factors as the board of directors considers relevant. There is no assurance that future dividends will be paid, and, if dividends are paid, there is no assurance with respect to the amount of any such dividend.
The offering price of our common stock was determined based on the price of our private offering, and therefore should not be used as an indicator of the future market price of the securities. Therefore, the offering price bears no relationship to our actual value, and may make our shares difficult to sell.
Since our shares are not listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system, the offering price of $0.033 per share for the shares of common stock was determined based on the price of our private offering. The offering price bears no relationship to the book value, assets or earnings of our company or any other recognized criteria of value. The offering price should not be regarded as an indicator of the future market price of the securities.
You will experience dilution of your ownership interest because of the future issuance of additional shares of our common stock and our preferred stock.
In the future, we may issue our authorized but previously unissued equity securities, resulting in the dilution of the ownership interests of our present stockholders. We are currently authorized to issue an aggregate of 160,000,000 shares of capital stock consisting of 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share.
We may also issue additional shares of our common stock or other securities that are convertible into or exercisable for common stock in connection with hiring or retaining employees or consultants, future acquisitions, future sales of our securities for capital raising purposes, or for other business purposes.
Our common stock is considered a penny stock, which may be subject to restrictions on marketability, so you may not be able to sell your shares.
If our common stock becomes tradable in the secondary market, we will be subject to the penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission that require brokers to provide extensive disclosure to their customers prior to executing trades in penny stocks. These disclosure requirements may cause a reduction in the trading activity of our common stock, which in all likelihood would make it difficult for our shareholders to sell their securities.
Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the NASDAQ system). Penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. The broker-dealer must also make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that becomes subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.
There is no assurance of a public market or that our common stock will ever trade on a recognized stock exchange. Therefore, you may be unable to liquidate your investment in our stock.
There is no established public trading market for our common stock. Our shares have not been listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system. There can be no assurance that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with FINRA, which operates the OTCBB, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved or that a regular trading market will develop or that if developed, will be sustained. In the absence of a trading market, an investor may be unable to liquidate their investment.
Our Board of Directors’ ability to issue undesignated preferred stock and the existence of anti-takeover provisions may depress the value of our common stock.
Our authorized capital includes 10,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, of which one (1) share is designated as share of Series A Preferred Stock. Please see “Description of Securities—Series A Preferred Stock.” Our Board of Directors has the power to issue any or all of the shares of preferred stock, including the authority to establish one or more series and to fix the powers, preferences, rights and limitations of such class or series, without seeking stockholder approval. Our Board of Directors may, in the future, consider adopting additional anti-takeover measures. The authority of our board of directors to issue undesignated stock and the anti-takeover provisions of Nevada law, as well as any future anti-takeover measures adopted by us, may, in certain circumstances, delay, deter or prevent takeover attempts and other changes in control of us that are not approved by our Board of Directors. As a result, our stockholders may lose opportunities to dispose of their shares at favorable prices generally available in takeover attempts or that may be available under a merger proposal and the market price, voting and other rights of the holders of common stock may also be affected.
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements are contained principally in the sections entitled “Summary,” “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and “Business.” These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the factors described in the section captioned “Risk Factors” above.
In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terms such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “could,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “may,” “plans,” “potential,” “predicts,” “projects,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and are based on assumptions and subject to risks and uncertainties. Given these uncertainties, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. Also, forward-looking statements represent our estimates and assumptions only as of the date of this prospectus. You should read this prospectus and the documents that we reference in this prospectus, or that we filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, completely and with the understanding that our actual future results may be materially different from what we expect.
Except as required by law, we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements publicly, or to update the reasons actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in any forward-looking statements, even if new information becomes available in the future.
The selling stockholders are selling shares of common stock covered by this prospectus for their own account. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of these shares. We have agreed to bear the expenses relating to the registration of the shares for the selling security holders.
DETERMINATION OF OFFERING PRICE
Since our common stock is not listed or quoted on any exchange or quotation system, the offering price of the shares of common stock was determined by the price of the common stock that was sold to our security holders pursuant to an exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933.
The offering price of the shares of our common stock does not necessarily bear any relationship to our book value, assets, past operating results, financial condition or any other established criteria of value.
Although our common stock is not listed on a public exchange, we will be filing to obtain a quotation on the OTCBB concurrently with the filing of this prospectus. In order to be quoted on the OTCBB, a market maker must file an application on our behalf in order to make a market for our common stock. There can be no assurance that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with FINRA, which operates the OTC Bulletin Board, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved.
In addition, there is no assurance that our common stock will trade at market prices in excess of the initial offering price as prices for the common stock in any public market which may develop will be determined in the marketplace and may be influenced by many factors, including the depth and liquidity.
The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders is common stock that is currently issued. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing shareholders. However, in the future if we decide to issue more shares our existing shareholders will experience dilution.
MARKET FOR OUR SECURITIES AND RELATED SHAREHOLDER MATTERS
There is presently no established public trading market for our shares of common stock. We anticipate on applying for trading of our common stock on the OTC Bulletin Board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms apart. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares of common stock will be traded on the Bulletin Board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.
Holders
As of the date of this prospectus, we had 112 shareholders of our common stock.
Transfer Agent and Registrar
Island Stock Transfer Company is currently the transfer agent and registrar for our common stock. Its address is 15500 Roosevelt Boulevard, Suite 301, Clearwater, Florida 33760. Its phone number is (727) 289-0010.
Dividends
Since inception we have not paid any dividends on our common stock. We currently do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future on our common stock, when issued pursuant to this offering. Although we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to finance the exploration and growth of our business, our Board of Directors will have the discretion to declare and pay dividends in the future. Payment of dividends in the future will depend upon our earnings, capital requirements, and other factors, which our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans
We presently do not have any equity based or other long-term incentive programs. In the future, we may adopt and establish an equity-based or other long-term incentive plan if it is in the best interest of the Company and our shareholders to do so.

In August 2011, we completed a private placement offering by selling 4,005,640 shares of common stock to 111 non-U.S. investors for approximately $130,000.
On December 12, 2011, we formed a company named Quinko-Tek Call Corp. (“CallCo”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) whereby CallCo became our wholly owned subsidiary. On the same day, we formed a company named Quinko-Tek Acquisition Corp. (“AcquisitionCo”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) whereby AcquisitionCo became a wholly owned subsidiary of CallCo.
On January 26, 2012, we completed a series of transactions by entering into a share exchange agreement, rollover agreement, support agreement, and voting and trust exchange agreement with certain parties. As a result, CanCo became our wholly owned subsidiary. See “Corporate History and Structure” of this prospectus.
We plan to take the following action to implement our business plan and maintain our growth:
- | Continue expansion and growth in the United States and regions of Canada outside Quebec; |
- | Introduce additional product lines branded under the Q-Line Elite trademark. We hope that each of these new lines will offer new or better options to customers than existing similar product choices; |
- | Strengthen or establish new relationships with manufacturing partners who offer unique and exceptional product lines of their own; |
- | Increase investment in web based marketing and on-line ordering capabilities; |
- | Increase investment in internal operational procedures to enable better inventory control and even better delivery of service and advice; and |
- | Further develop relationships with existing customers and expansion of products they are currently purchasing. |
Foreign Currency Risk
We make purchases and sales in both Canadian (CAD) and USD in the normal course of business. A significant percentage of our goods are purchased in US dollars. A significant percentage of our sales are made in Canadian dollars.
To offset the risk involved in fluctuations in the CAD/USD exchange rate, we have strategically been increasing our sales denominated in USD, even to our Canadian customers. As well, sales to the U.S. market are made in USD. In addition, we use a very conservative policy with regard to our CAD selling prices, including as part of our costing model a significant factor to protect against a negative foreign exchange move.
Finally, we monitor daily the changes in the CAD/USD exchange rate and where appropriate we either cover our USD requirements in spot purchases or protect us with the purchase of futures.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended October 31, 2011 as Compared to the Nine Months Ended October 31, 2010
For the nine months ended October 31, 2011, sales continued to increase and gross profit continued to improve. Growth came in all sectors of operations, both from existing customers and product groups as well as from new customers and new product introductions. Particularly, we gained important growth in the U.S. market, both in terms of a number of new customers and in terms of growth in sales. The markets we have chosen to focus on have been positively responding to the Company’s products and services. We plan to continue our strategies- of expanding into the U.S. markets.
Sales
Sales for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 were approximately $8.78 million as compared to approximately $7.64 million for the same period in 2010, reflecting an increase of 14.9%. The increase in sales during this period is mostly attributed to an increase in the number of customers, the Company’s continued implementation of its strategy to expand into new markets and expand its product lines, and the benefits of a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate.
For the nine months ended October 31, 2011, the number of our U.S. customers increased by 52% as compared to the same period in 2010. and therefore the Sales in the U.S. market increased by 37% during the nine months ended October 31, 2011. For the nine months the percentage of sales from the U.S. market compared to the total sales increased from 4.7% in 2010 to 6.3% in 2011 (of a higher total). For the three months the percentage of sales from the U.S. market compared to the total sales increased from 4.8% in 2010 to 8% in 2011 (of a higher total).
We also continued our expansion into the retail home renovation center section and entered into new geographic regions such as western Canada.
We were also the beneficiary of a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate. The average exchange rate for the nine months ended October 31, 2011was 1.0199 versus an average exchange rate for the same period in 2010 of .9678. Without this foreign exchange translation, the increase in sales was 8.96%.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the nine months of ended October 31, 2011 was approximately $5.90 million as compared to approximately $5.17 million for the same period in 2010. This represents an increase of 14.21%. The increase can be attributed to increased purchases during the period to support the increased sales and a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate, which added 5.83% to the increase in cost of goods sold when translated into USD.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the nine months October 31, 2011 was approximately $2.87 million as compared to approximately $2.48 million for the same period in 2010. Gross profit margin improved from 32.40% to 32.76%.
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the first nine months of 2011 were approximately $2.76 million as compared to approximately $2.36 million for the same period in 2010, reflecting an increase of 16.85%. The increase can be mostly attributed to continued investment in U.S. operations. In July 2010, we opened a warehouse facility in Maryland and engaged a manager responsible for opening the Mid-Atlantic market. We plan to continue to expand this operation going forward.
We also significantly increased investment in displays for the retail home renovation programs in 2011 in order to support our penetration of the sector. Furthermore we hired additional personnel in the Montreal operation in order to handle the increased volume and implemented training programs in preparation for continued growth in the future.
The higher average CAD/USD exchange rate in this period used in the translation of the expenses to the reporting currency also added 5.97% to the increase.
Net Earnings (Loss)
As a result of the above factors, net earnings for the nine months October 31, 2011 were $75,866 as compared to $76,764 for the same period in 2010, reflecting a slight decrease of 1.17%. The decrease was primarily attributable to the increase expenses for the U.S. operations.
Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended October 31, 2011 as Compared to the Three Months Ended October 31, 2010
Sales
Sales for the three months ended October 31, 2011 were approximately $2.89 million as compared to approximately $2.48 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010, reflecting an increase of 16.6%. The increase in sales during this period is mostly attributed to an increase in the number of customers, the Company’s continued implementation of its strategy to expand into new markets, expansion of our product lines, and the benefits of a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate.
For the three months ended October 31, 2011, we continued growth in the U.S. market by gaining new customers. We also continued expansion into the retail home renovation center section and entered into new geographic regions such as western Canada.
We were also the beneficiary of a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate. The average exchange rate for the three months ended October 31, 2011 was .9998 versus an average exchange rate for the same period in 2010 of .9701. Without this foreign currency translation, the increase in sales in our reporting currency was 13.14%.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the three months ended October 31, 2011 was approximately $1.94 million as compared to approximately $1.68 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. This represents an increase of 14.88%. The increase can be attributed to increased purchases during the period to support the increased sales and a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate, which added 3.41% to the increase in the cost of goods sold when translated into USD.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended October 31, 2011 was approximately $0.96 million as compared to approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010. Gross profit margin for the quarter improved year over year from 32.11% to 33.11%.
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the three months ended October 31, 2011 were approximately $0.89 million as compared to approximately $0.8 million for the three months ended October 31, 2010, reflecting an increase of 10.76%. The increase can be mostly attributed to the Company engaging additional personnel in the Montreal operations in order to handle the increased volume and in preparation for continued growth in the future by implementing training programs. Additional financial expenses reflected additional borrowing in order to finance operations.
Net Earnings (Loss)
As a result of the above factors, net earnings for the three months ended October 31, 2011 were $50,164 as compared to a loss of $5,852 for the three months ended October 31, 2010.
Results of Operations for the Year ended January 31, 2011 as Compared to the Year ended January 31, 2010
During the year ended January 31, 2011, expansion and investing in U.S. market was a key strategy of the Company. We were able to increase our sales and gross profit during this period, mainly due to increase in number of new customers and introduction of new products. During the year, we continued our penetration into the U.S. market.
Sales
Sales for the year ended January 31, 2011 were approximately $9.91 million as compared to approximately $8.08 million for the year ended January 31, 2010, reflecting an increase of 22.65%. The increase was mainly due to an increase in customer base and the Company’s expansion geographically to both eastern Canada and U.S. mid-Atlantic markets during the period.
We were also the beneficiary of a higher average CAD/USD exchange rate. The average exchange rate for the year ended January 31, 2011 was .9743 versus .8916 for the year ended January 31, 2010. This added 10.41% to the increase. Without this foreign currency translation addition, the increase in sales was 12.24%.
Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of goods sold for the year ended January 31, 2011 was approximately $6.7 million as compared to approximately $5.69 million for the year ended January 31, 2010. This represents an increase of 18.32%. The increase can be attributed to increased purchases during the period to support the increased sales and the changes in the CAD/USD exchange rate. The average CAD/USD exchange rate was lower during the period. Without this foreign currency translation difference, the cost of goods sold would have been 7.73% higher during the year ended January 31, 2011.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the year ended January 31, 2011 was approximately $3.21 million as compared to approximately $2.39 million for the year ended January 31, 2010. This represents an improvement in gross profit margin from 29.6% to 32.43%. This improvement is primarily a consequence of changes to the mix of products sold and specific management of pricing policies (price lists) designed to increase the overall gross profit.
Total Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses for the year ended January 31, 2011 were approximately $3.13 million as compared to approximately $2.62 million for the year ended January 31, 2010, reflecting an increase of 19.52%. The increase is due to our expansion and investment in the U.S. market during this period. There was no significant expense related to U.S. operations for the year ended January 31, 2010. This component alone added $103,940 to expenses or 3.32%. The increased financial expense reflected additional borrowing in order to finance operations.
The average CAD/USD exchange rate was also higher over the period. This added 10.14% to the increase. Without this foreign currency translation difference, the increase in total operating expenses would have been 9.38%.
Forgiveness of Debt – Advances from Related Parties
For the year ended January 31, 2011, we were the beneficiary of a forgiveness of debt in the amount of $974,300. This was a non-cash transaction. Over the history of CanCo, Vinn Investments, a company controlled by Emil Kroo, had loaned significant amounts to CanCo in order to maintain liquidity and provide working capital. Emil Kroo was formerly a principal shareholder of CanCo and is the father of a current principal shareholder of the Company. On May 4, 2010, Vinn Investments forgave $974,300 of the advances owing by CanCo. See “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.”
Net Earnings (Loss)
As a result of the above factors, net earnings for the year ended January 31, 2011 were $880,403 as compared to a loss of $90,048 for the year ended January 31, 2010.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of October 31, 2011, CanCo had current assets of $6,302,111 and current liabilities of $5,372,146. The following table provides a summary of CanCo’s net cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.
| | For the Nine Months Ended October 31, | | For the Year Ended January 31, |

Cash used in operating activities
Cash used in operating activities increased by $78,850 for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 as compared to the nine months ended October 31, 2010. This reflects a significant increase in accounts receivable and a decrease in accounts payable partially offset by a reduction in inventory and net earnings.
Cash used in operating activities decreased by $327,407 for the year ended January 31, 2011 as compared to the year ended January 31, 2010. This reflects a significant increase in inventory offset partially by a significant increase in accounts payable. It should be noted that $212,000 of the inventory increase is directly attributable to the difference in the value of the CAD versus USD on January 31, 2011 (.9985) as compared to January 31, 2010 (.9352). The increase in inventory in the reporting currency was $1.144 million. It should also be noted that the Company imports a significant amount of its product from China which each year has a three week suspension in production beginning in the second half of January. Consequently, we must purchase significant quantities of product just prior to this temporary shutdown and these goods that are in transit as of the fiscal year end of the Company are included in the inventory asset on the balance sheet.
Cash provided by financing activities
Cash provided by financing activities was $389,663 for the nine months ended October 31, 2011 which consisted of proceeds from bank indebtedness, proceeds of loans payable and advances from related parties. For the nine months ended October 31, 2010, the Company received $502,072 from financing activities. Increased use of the Company’s line of credit and short term loans from external financing provided the funds required to offset the net outflow.
Cash provided by financing activities was $407,002 for the year ended January 31, 2011 as compared to $62,646 for the year ended January 31, 2010.
Cash used in investing activities
For the nine months ended October 31, 2011, investment in equipment amounted to $21,957 and non-cash amortization amounted to $64,134. For the nine months ended October 31, 2010, investment in equipment amounted to $47,101 and non-cash amortization amounted to $66,955.
Cash used for the acquisition of property and equipment was $65,116 for the year ended January 31, 2011 and $48,167 for the year ended January 31, 2010.
Working capital is adequate for current operations, however is not considered enough to support the expected future growth. Consequently we are striving to continue to reduce inventory levels while at the same time pursuing additional financing opportunities. These may be in the form of increased borrowing from our current lenders, private placements or short term financing from third parties. As our sales and profits grow there will also be the contribution of increased earnings.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized once products are delivered to the customer and the transfer of ownership risks and benefits inherent to the property occurs. Revenue is recognized if persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Inventory
Inventory is comprised of finished goods that the Company intends to resell to its customers. It is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Cost includes components of invoice cost, foreign exchange, freight and duties. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less applicable variable selling costs. The Company records lower of cost or market value adjustments based upon changes in market pricing, customer demand, or other economic factors for on-hand excess or slow-moving inventory.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 740 Income Taxes which prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates. The effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.
Under ASC No. 740 income taxes are recognized for the following: a) amount of tax payable for the current year, and b) deferred tax liabilities and assets for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized differently in the financial statements than for tax purposes.
Foreign Currency Translation
Management has determined that the functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. The Company's accounts have been translated into United States dollars in accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 830 Foreign Currency Matters. Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are denominated in US dollars and European Euros. In accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 830, transaction gains and losses on these assets and liabilities are included in the determination of income for the relevant years.
Adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements from their functional currencies to US dollars are accumulated as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income and have not been included in the determination of net income for the relevant years.
Comprehensive Income
ASC No. 220 Comprehensive Income establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive income is presented in the statements of changes in stockholders' equity, and consists of foreign currency translation adjustments. ASC No. 220 requires only additional disclosures in the financial statements and does not affect the Company's financial position or results of operations.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, is provided using the under noted annual rates and methods:
| Equipment | 20% declining balance |
| Furniture and fixtures | 20% declining balance |
| Computer hardware | 30% declining balance |
| Computer software | 30% declining balance |
| Leasehold improvements | 10 years straight line |
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to an investment in our securities.
CORPORATE HISTORY AND STRUCTURE
We were incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 28, 2010 as Quinko-Tek International, Inc. (“USCo”). We are a holding company and conduct our operations through our subsidiary in Canada named 152724 Canada Inc. (“CanCo”). CanCo was incorporated in 1986 and is headquartered in Montreal, Canada. It is a wholesaler and importer of hardware for the furniture and cabinet trade.
In August 2011, we completed a private placement offering by selling 4,005,640 shares of common stock to 111 non-U.S. investors for approximately $130,000.
On December 12, 2011, USCo formed a company named Quinko-Tek Call Corp. (“CallCo”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) whereby CallCo became the wholly owned subsidiary of USCo. On the same day, USCo formed a company named Quinko-Tek Acquisition Corp. (“AcquisitionCo”) in accordance with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario) whereby AcquisitionCo becomes the wholly owned subsidiary of CallCo.
On January 26, 2012, USCo entered into a share exchange agreement with CanCo and Joshua Kroo, a former shareholder of CanCo, pursuant to which USCo issued 3,838,191 shares of its common stock to Joshua Kroo in exchange for 210 common shares of CanCo owned by Joshua Kroo. In connection with the foregoing share exchange transaction, Ira Kroo transferred 445 shares of common stock of CanCo to AcquisitionCo, for the issuance of a total of 8,133,309 non-voting class of shares (“Exchangeable Shares”) in the capital stock of AcquisitionCo, pursuant to a rollover agreement by and between Ira Kroo and AcquisitionCo, dated January 26, 2012. As a result of the transaction, AcquisitionCo owns 67.94% of the capital stock of CanCo while USCo owns the remaining 32.06% of CanCo. Exchangeable Shares shall mean non-voting shares of AcquisitionCo issued to a person or persons that have the right to be issued common shares of USCo on a one to one basis, subject to certain adjustment, in exchange for the redemption or cancellation of each Exchangeable Share.
On January 26, 2012, USCo filed with the State of Nevada Secretary of State a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations for Series A Preferred Stock”). Such Series A Preferred Stock consists of one (1) share, $0.001 par value per share, which was issued to Patriquin Law Professional Corporation (the “Trustee”). The holder of Series A Preferred Stock has equivalent voting rights to the common stock of USCo, as if the holder of Series A Preferred Stock held the number of shares of common stock of USCo equals to the number of Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding at that point in time, pursuant to a support agreement and a voting and exchange trust agreement entered into by and among the USCo, AcquisitionCo, CallCo and the Trustee, dated January 26, 2012. See “Description of Securities – Series A Preferred Stock” of this prospectus.
The support agreement and the Exchangeable Shares provisions create certain obligations for the USCo, including the obligation to reserve sufficient common shares in its stock to issue to the owners of the Exchangeable Shares, the obligation to ensure that equivalent dividends are paid to the owners of the Exchangeable Shares if dividends are paid on the common shares of USCo while any Exchangeable Shares are outstanding, and the obligation to not issue any special voting shares or designate or issue any other shares in its capital that are superior to the Series A Preferred Stock, except with the consent of the owners of the Exchangeable Shares.
The voting and exchange trust agreement creates a trust for the benefit of the registered holders of the Exchangeable Shares that enables the Trustee to exercise voting rights on behalf of the holders of the Exchangeable Shares, until such time as the exchangeable shareholders (or their designates, transferees or assignees) are issued common shares of USCo in exchange for their Exchangeable Shares. The voting and exchange trust agreement shall remain in force until the date that all the Exchangeable Shares are exchanged for shares of common stock in the USCo. At that time, the share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed for cancellation for nominal consideration.
The following chart reflects our organizational structure as of the date of this prospectus:
Overview
We operate our business through CanCo, which is a distributor of functional hardware, decorative and complementary products used in the manufacture of furniture and kitchen cabinets. We sell our products in Canada, the United States and Central and South America.
Our Industry
The industry consists of distributors and wholesalers of products generally used in the manufacture or renovation of furniture, kitchens and vanity cabinets, commercial and architectural millwork and similar end uses. Customers can be large-scale manufacturers, woodworkers, home renovation centers, construction projects and do-it-yourself consumers. The overall market is relatively stable due to the broad range customers and the multitude of new construction as well as renovation.
Although the current economic environment is very difficult to predict new housing and new construction, there is an ongoing demand for the products offered by the Company for renovation and improvement of existing homes and commercial properties.
Products and Growth Strategy
We import and resell hardware for the furniture and cabinet trade. We are committed to achieving growth, enhancing profitability and generating positive cash flows through building strong relationships with our suppliers and making arrangements for exclusive distribution across wide geographic areas. Our current product lines and growth strategies are as follows:
- | Building on our trademarked Q-Line Elite line of hardware products, |
- | Maintaining our unique relationships with our supplier factories and developing relationships with new supplier factories, |
- | Continuing our strong emphasis on service to our customers, |
- | Broadening our distribution networks, and, |
- | Distributing and marketing specific product lines for which we have exclusive distribution agreements for specific geographic regions. |
Keys to Organic growth, Competitive Advantages and Q-Line Elite
Sourcing and Supplier Relationships
We do not manufacture the products. We have been importing approximately 65% of our products from the Far East since our inception and we were one of the earliest companies in the industry to begin sourcing in China in 1991 when China first began to open its borders to the world. As such, an extraordinary amount of experience has been accumulated over the years with regard to determining the very best factories to work with.
We consciously source each of our product lines from different factories and even sub-divide our product lines in order to ensure specialization from our supplier factories. Once we have determined that a product line is to be added to our company’s product families, a very specific approach has been developed with regard to the research and procedure undertaken to find the right “partner” supplier.
This approach is quite unique in the industry and as a result the relationships we have with our various factory suppliers is exceptional. In many cases it provides the company with strong competitive advantages in the market both with regard to quality and price. It has also allowed us to develop our own brand which gradually is becoming more and more known amongst customers: Q-Line Elite. We have products manufactured at the various factories and branded with the Q-Line Elite trademark.
All manufacturers must meet our very specific and very high quality and technical standards. We regularly test our products once received in Montreal with our own testing machinery to ensure the quality technical features meet our requirements.
A number of our factory suppliers have also agreed to grant us exclusive distribution rights of their production for either Canada or all of North America and these rights can be leveraged to great effect as the company expands geographically.
We also purchase from suppliers in North America, Europe, Taiwan, Columbia, and Brazil.
Insofar as the Company distributes many product lines and given the specific corporate strategy of purchasing from many factories, each specializing in a particular product line or sub-products line, the company’s purchases are spread across a broad spectrum of suppliers and there is no dependence of significance on any one supplier.
Experienced Personnel
Our corporate philosophy with regard to personnel is that success can only be achieved if the best people available are in place at all positions in the company. Our senior personnel are very experienced, dedicated, motivated and have complete belief in the future and potential of our company. In the future, we also intend to recruit more group leaders, other than the management, to join our company to increase the product sales and achieve the growth of the Company.
Personal Attention
It is also a very specific corporate philosophy that all customers and suppliers must at all times feel they can receive personal attention from the staff at our company and in particular from senior management. Our staffs are trained to give personal attention to our customers and suppliers. Most of our customers, new and old, consider this level of service as one of the most important elements we provide to them and the marketplace.
Intellectual Property
We have registered the trademark “Q-Line Elite” in Canada and United States.
Suppliers
We do not manufacture our products. We distribute the products purchased from our suppliers in North America or imported from various countries including but not limited to People’s Republic of China, Taiwan, Columbia, South America and Brazil. We purchase from a large number of manufacturers who meet our high standards of quality control and technical features. Therefore, such factory suppliers must specialize in the particular product line which we purchase from. None of our suppliers accounted for 10% or more of the total purchase price for the year ended January 31, 2011.
Marketing, Sales & Distribution
Geographic expansion into the U.S. market
In 2008, we began to sell our products in the New York and New Jersey markets through several regional distributors. In late 2009, we began to sell directly in the New York market through an independent sales agency. In July 2010, we opened a small warehouse in the Mid-Atlantic region in the United States. The reception of customers to these sales initiatives over the last three years has been very positive and has proven the potential for growth in these markets. We are also considering expansion into other geographic areas in the United States.
We maintain inventories for our regional operations by regular deliveries from our central warehouse in Montreal. All transportation, both to the regional operations and to their respective customers is via independent carriers.
Internet
Over the past six months, we have been developing a website www.qlineshop.com targeting small and medium sized woodworkers as well as individuals (who do their own home improvements or are simply looking for decorative hardware to enhance their existing homes). All products offered on the site are those which the Company inventories and sells in its normal day to day business. The site is designed to reach the end user/consumer who would either be buying in a home renovation store or on-line from another site. These are customers not currently served by the Company. Further, as the internet reaches a global market, the site is a vehicle to make its products available across the entire United States and Canada and even overseas.
Purchase of goods from internet websites has become a multi-billion dollar business and while there are already a number of sites offering furniture hardware and complementary decorative products on-line, a well designed site which is well marketed can generate very significant sales and high profit margins. We have done extensive research with regard to competitive websites and there is a major opportunity for a well-designed site which can take advantage of our existing purchasing power and product knowledge. We expect to generate significant and increasing sales from the web site over the next two to three years.
Sub-distributors
In 2007, we started a program to establish relationships with a network of independent regional sub-distributors across Quebec, Canada. On average these sub-distributors which had a base of at least 300 customers. We offered a breadth of product families that was far greater than the sub-distributors had access to, a large inventory to rely upon for supply, territorial protection and joint marketing programs.
To date the network comprises twenty-four sub-distributors and they are located not only in Quebec but also in other provinces of Canada as well as the northeastern US. Each sub-distributor essentially becomes an extension of our sales network and allows to reach a much broader universe of customers then we could reach with a direct sales force.
We plan to add to the network as we expand to more and more geographic areas.
New product lines
It is the Company’s plan to introduce new product lines in the future. The Company is often approached by manufacturers to take on the distribution of a product line and each such opportunity is evaluated with regard to the fit with the company’s existing product lines, customer base and the terms of the distribution arrangement.
Several examples of relatively new arrangements are:
WoodMaax Premium Screw Line
This product line is for sale under our Q-Line Elite brand. We are entitled to exclusive distribution rights in the United States market and non-exclusive distribution rights in Canada.
It is the first and only family of screws developed exclusively for the woodworking industry, featuring many unique and highly desirable features. Virtually all woodworking requires screws. It was first introduced to the Canadian market in 2009. There is a program targeted towards the volume manufacturing industry with the appropriate package quantities and pricing and there is a different program intended for distribution through the home renovation centers with smaller package quantities and higher pricing. We sell such products either to industry or retail buyers. In addition, we sell them on the website www.qlineshop.com, which is discussed below under Marketing, Sales and Distribution.
Kitchen Cabinet Doors
Most kitchens and closets have cabinet doors made from one of the three materials: solid wood, composite wood with laminated surfaces and composite wood with thermofoil surfaces. Thermofoil is a very thin decorative paper vacuum sealed to the substrate. All cabinet doors are custom made as the dimensions vary with the design of each kitchen or closet, particularly high end designs. Due to this constraint there are no inventory implications; the critical success factors are selection, quality, price and service.
We have negotiated oral agreements with two companies manufacturing cabinet doors. One is actually a customer currently purchasing laminates from us and has developed a very unique and European look series of cabinet door options using our laminates which we sell to them, the other is based in Ontario.
We are entitled to exclusive distribution rights in the United States market. This is a new product for our company, which we believe has great potential.
Initial presentations to customers of all three materials have been met with great success. We have been able to exceed the competition in all four of the critical factors that the customers are sensitive to. We have already started to market and sell this product line but on a limited basis as we continue to research and develop our approach to the market and the existing competition.
Natural Wood Finishing and Maintenance Oils and Treatments
We are the U.S. distributor for the only 100% natural and environmentally wood finishing and wood maintenance line available today on the market. The manufacturer is in Quebec and we are targeting customers who are small woodworkers and consumers.
We are entitled to exclusive distribution rights in the United States market and non-exclusive distribution rights in Ontario and Eastern Canada.
The manufacturing company has been in business since the mid 1990’s and developed the all natural and green formulas for these finishing oils and wood treatments in the mid 2000’s. They have been extremely well received in the Quebec market and particularly lend themselves to internet marketing, with descriptions of the natural ingredients used and on-line user forums, etc. The fact that they are completely natural makes them extremely appealing in today’s market and also makes them unique with regard to the competition.
Customers
We have a broad base of customers with no single customer accounting for more than 10% of sales for the year ended January 31, 2011 and 2010. We are in a strong growth mode geographically and expect to further broaden our base of customers as we widen our geographic markets. In addition, as we add new products to our existing product lines we will increase the sales to our existing customers.
Competition
In general, the hardware distribution industry is very fragmented with many small companies serving local or regional markets. Such companies are similar to the sub-distributors already within the company distribution network as described in the section above titled “Sub-distributors.”
However, there are also very large distributors who have much broader coverage of the market with warehouses in located in multiple geographic locations across North America. In recent years they have been acquiring a number of the smaller distributors and consequently there has been some degree of consolidation within the industry.
These large distributors have sales representatives in the various geographic regions, but the common characteristic of all of them distributors is that the number of SKU’s these companies offer are very high (40,000 or more) and all of them offer products made by different manufacturers but which serve the same function with regard to the construction of a piece of furniture or a kitchen cabinet. The result is that it is very difficult for their own personnel to have in-depth knowledge of their entire range of products and furthermore it is difficult for them to inform their customers about which of the several brands of similar products a customer should buy. Customer service is very poor and personal attention is non-existent.
One of the large competitors in Canada is Richelieu Hardware. It is a distribution company with minor manufacturing operations. Its sales were over $400 million for its 2010 fiscal year end. Other large competitors in the North America market include Hafele, Wurth Group, Hettich Group and Blum Group, etc., all of which have more than $1 billion in sales worldwide and $200 million in North America.
In contrast, Quinko-Tek International is by design a competitor that has as its highest priority service and product knowledge. All sales and service personnel are trained to ‘find solutions to the customer’s problems’. In addition our product offerings are focused and the Q-Line Elite brand name in particular has established itself as brand representing excellent value. As we enter new markets and introduce ourselves to new customers, the success ratio of opening new accounts exceeds 65 to 70.
Insurance
We currently have adequate insurance in place for all aspects of our business.
Regulation and Environment Protection
There are no requirements for government approvals for any of the products that we distribute. As we are a distribution company only, there are no requirements regarding environmental protection.
Properties
Our corporate office and warehouse are located at 1855 Hymus Blvd., Dorval, Quebec, Canada H9P 1J8. We rent the premises for $283,421 per year through May 31, 2013 and for $312,341 per year through May 31, 2016.
Employees
As of the date hereof, we have approximately 28 full-time employees.
Litigation
152724 Canada Inc. has been named as the defendant in a lawsuit involving claims of approximately $62,000. 152724 Canada Inc. has retained counsel to represent it on this matter and it intends to vigorously contest the allegations. We do not believe the lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Transactions with Related Parties
On January 26, 2012, we entered into a share exchange agreement with CanCo and Joshua Kroo, a former shareholder of CanCo, pursuant to which USCo issued 3,838,191 shares of its common stock to Joshua Kroo in exchange for 210 common shares of CanCo owned by Joshua Kroo. In connection with the foregoing share exchange transaction, Ira Kroo transferred 445 shares of common stock of CanCo to AcquisitionCo, for the issuance of a total of 8,133,309 Exchangeable Shares of AcquisitionCo, pursuant to a rollover agreement by and between Ira Kroo and AcquisitionCo, dated January 26, 2012. As a result of the transaction, AcquisitionCo owns 67.94% of the capital stock of CanCo while USCo owns the remaining 32.06% of CanCo.
We also issued one share of Series A Preferred Stock to Patriquin Law Professional Corporation as Trustee. The holder of Series A Preferred Stock has equivalent voting rights to the common stock of USCo, as if the holder of Series A Preferred Stock held the number of shares of common stock of USCo equals to the number of Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding at that point in time, pursuant to a support agreement and a voting and exchange trust agreement entered into by and among the USCo, AcquisitionCo, CallCo and the Trustee, dated January 26, 2012. See “Description of Securities – Series A Preferred Stock” of this prospectus. The support agreement provides that USCo shall issue shares of common stock to owners of Exchangeable Shares on a one to one basis as the Exchangeable Shares are redeemed or otherwise cancelled. The voting and exchange trust agreement creates a trust for the benefit of the registered holders of the Exchangeable Shares that enables Patriquin Law Professional Corporation, acting as the Trustee, to exercise voting rights on behalf of Ira Kroo, the holder of the Exchangeable Shares, similar to those of holders of common stock of USCo. Therefore, Ira Kroo, as beneficiary, is entitled to instruct the Trustee to vote.
On October 31, 2011 and January 31, 2011, CanCo had advances from related parties which are unsecured, non-interest bearing, and have been subordinated in favor of the banking covenant imposed by HSBC Bank Canada, except for the advances from Quinko-Tek Quebec which are due on demand.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Authorized Capital Stock
Our authorized stock consists of 160,000,000 shares: 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share. There are currently 7,843,831 shares of common stock issued and outstanding held by 112 shareholders and one share of Series A Preferred Stock was issued and outstanding. Further, there are 8,133,309 shares of common stock reserved for issuance to owners of the Exchangeable Shares.
Common Stock
Each share of our common stock entitles its holder to one vote in the election of each director and on all other matters voted on generally by our stockholders, other than any matter that (1) solely relates to the terms of any outstanding series of preferred stock or the number of shares of that series and (2) does not affect the number of authorized shares of preferred stock or the powers, privileges and rights pertaining to the common stock. No share of our common stock affords any cumulative voting rights. This means that the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares voting for the election of directors can elect all directors to be elected if they choose to do so.
Holders of our common stock will be entitled to dividends in such amounts and at such times as our Board of Directors in its discretion may declare out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends. We currently intend to retain our entire available discretionary cash flow to finance the growth, development and expansion of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends on the common stock in the foreseeable future. Any future dividends will be paid at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors, including:
| ● | general business conditions; |
| ● | industry practice; |
| ● | our financial condition and performance; |
| ● | our future prospects; |
| ● | our cash needs and capital investment plans; |
| ● | our obligations to holders of any preferred stock we may issue; |
| ● | income tax consequences; and |
| ● | the restrictions Nevada and other applicable laws and our credit arrangements then impose. |
If we liquidate or dissolve our business, the holders of our common stock will share ratably in all our assets that are available for distribution to our stockholders after our creditors are paid in full and the holders of all series of our outstanding preferred stock, if any, receive their liquidation preferences in full.
Our common stock has no preemptive rights and is not convertible or redeemable or entitled to the benefits of any sinking or repurchase fund.
Preferred Stock
Our Board has the authority, within the limitations and restrictions in our certificate of incorporation, to issue 10,000,0000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of any series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of shares of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control without further action by the stockholders. The issuance of shares of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock, including voting rights, of the holders of our common stock. In some circumstances, this issuance could have the effect of decreasing the market price of our common stock.
Undesignated preferred stock may enable our Board to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a tender offer, proxy contest, merger or otherwise, and thereby to protect the continuity of our management. The issuance of shares of preferred stock may adversely affect the rights of our common stockholders. For example, any shares of preferred stock issued may rank prior to the common stock as to dividend rights, liquidation preference or both, may have full or limited voting rights and may be convertible into shares of common stock. As a result, the issuance of shares of preferred stock, or the issuance of rights to purchase shares of preferred stock, may discourage an unsolicited acquisition proposal or bids for our common stock or may otherwise adversely affect the market price of our common stock or any existing preferred stock.
Series A Preferred Stock
On January 26, 2012, the Board has agreed to create from the 10,000,000 shares of the preferred stock, a series of preferred stock designated as “Series A Preferred Stock.” The authorized number of shares constituting the Series A Preferred Stock shall be one (1). Patriquin Law Professional Corporation received one share of Series A Preferred Stock as Trustee. Ira Kroo, as beneficiary, is entitled to instruct the Trustee to vote.
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on all matters on which the holders of common stock are entitled to vote. The holders of shares of common stock and the holders of shares of any other capital stock of the Company having general voting rights shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Company. As of any record date or other determination date, each holder shall be entitled to the number of votes equal to the number of Exchangeable Shares issued and outstanding at that point in time, as if the holder held the same number of shares of common stock of the USCo. Exchangeable Shares shall mean non-voting shares of AcquisitionCo issued to a person or persons that have the right to be issued common shares of USCo on a one to one basis, subject to certain adjustment, in exchange for the redemption or cancellation of each Exchangeable Share. As of the date hereof, a total of 8,133,309 Exchangeable Shares were issued to Ira Kroo.
The Company shall have the right to redeem the Series A Preferred Stock in accordance with the terms of the voting and exchange trust agreement once all Exchangeable Shares have been redeemed or otherwise cancelled, and the common stock of the Company has been issued to the holders of the Exchangeable Shares in accordance with the support agreement.
For so long as any shares of Series A Preferred Stock are outstanding, the Company shall not, directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions (including by means of merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) without the prior approval (by vote or written consent) of each of the holders of Series A Preferred Stock: (i) amend, repeal, alter or add, delete or otherwise change the powers, preferences, rights or privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock; (ii) amend or waive any provision of its certificate of incorporation in a manner that would change the powers, preferences, rights or privileges of the Series A Preferred Stock; (iii) effect any stock split or combination or classify, reclassify or issue any additional shares of Series A Preferred Stock; or (iv) enter into any agreement with respect to the foregoing clauses (i) through (iii).
Holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions (whether in cash, stock or property of the Company) in respect of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by them. Likewise, holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive any distributions upon liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company in respect of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by them. The holder of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any rights to convert the Series A Preferred Stock into common stock.
We are registering a total of 4,005,640 shares of common stock issued in the private placement financing transaction completed in August 2011.

(1) | Under applicable SEC rules, a person is deemed to beneficially own securities which the person has the right to acquire within 60 days through the exercise of any option or warrant or through the conversion of a convertible security. Also under applicable SEC rules, a person is deemed to be the “beneficial owner” of a security with regard to which the person directly or indirectly, has or shares (a) voting power, which includes the power to vote or direct the voting of the security, or (b) investment power, which includes the power to dispose, or direct the disposition, of the security, in each case, irrespective of the person’s economic interest in the security. Each listed selling security holder has the sole investment and voting power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by such selling security holder, except as otherwise indicated in the footnotes to the table. |

To our knowledge, none of the selling shareholders or their beneficial owners:
- | has had a material relationship with us other than as a shareholder at any time within the past three years; or |
- | has ever been one of our officers or directors or an officer or director of our predecessors or affiliates or |
- | are broker-dealers or affiliated with broker-dealers. |
The selling security holders may sell some or all of their shares at a fixed price of $0.033 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTCBB and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. Prior to being quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, shareholders may sell their shares in private transactions to other individuals. Although our common stock is not listed on a public exchange, we will be filing to obtain a quotation on the OTCBB concurrently with the filing of this prospectus. In order to be quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, a market maker must file an application on our behalf in order to make a market for our common stock. There can be no assurance that a market maker will agree to file the necessary documents with FINRA, which operates the OTC Bulletin Board, nor can there be any assurance that such an application for quotation will be approved. However, sales by selling security holder must be made at the fixed price of $0.033 until a market develops for the stock.
Once a market has developed for our common stock, the shares may be sold or distributed from time to time by the selling stockholders, who may be deemed to be underwriters, directly to one or more purchasers or through brokers or dealers who act solely as agents, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices, at negotiated prices or at fixed prices, which may be changed. The distribution of the shares may be effected in one or more of the following methods:
| · | ordinary brokers transactions, which may include long or short sales, |
| · | transactions involving cross or block trades on any securities or market where our common stock is trading, market where our common stock is trading, |
| · | through direct sales to purchasers or sales effected through agents, |
| · | through transactions in options, swaps or other derivatives (whether exchange listed of otherwise), or exchange listed or otherwise), or |
| · | any combination of the foregoing. |
In addition, the selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers who may engage in short sales, if short sales were permitted, of shares in the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers that require the delivery by such broker-dealers of the shares, which shares may be resold thereafter pursuant to this prospectus. To our best knowledge, none of the selling security holders are broker-dealers or affiliates of broker dealers.
We will advise the selling security holders that the anti-manipulation rules of Regulation M under the Exchange Act may apply to sales of shares in the market and to the activities of the selling security holders and their affiliates. In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus (as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time) available to the selling security holders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. The selling security holders may indemnify any broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving the sale of the shares against certain liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.
Brokers, dealers, or agents participating in the distribution of the shares may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agent or to whom they may sell as principal, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer may be in excess of customary commissions). Neither the selling stockholders nor we can presently estimate the amount of such compensation. We know of no existing arrangements between the selling stockholders and any other stockholder, broker, dealer or agent relating to the sale or distribution of the shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares of the selling security holders pursuant to this prospectus. We have agreed to bear the expenses of the registration of the shares, including legal and accounting fees, and such expenses are estimated to be approximately $88,000.
Notwithstanding anything set forth herein, no FINRA member will charge commissions that exceed 8% of the total proceeds of the offering.
The validity of the common stock offered by this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Anslow & Jaclin, LLP, Manalapan, New Jersey.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Quinko-Tek International Inc.
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Quinko-Tek International Inc. (a Development Stage Company) as of October 31, 2011 and the related statements of operations, changes stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period from December 28, 2010 (date of inception) to October 31, 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audit, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Quinko-Tek International Inc. (a Development Stage Company) as of October 31, 2011, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period then endeed in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE PERIOD FROM DECEMBER 28, 2010 (DATE IF INCEPTION) TO OCTOBER 31, 2011
NOTE 1 - NATURE OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESESTATION
Quinko-Tek International, Inc. (a Development Stage Company) was incorporated on December 28, 2010 in the State of Nevada (the “Company”). The Company intends to serve as a vehicle to effect an asset acquisition, merger, exchange of capital stock or other business combination with a domestic or foreign business.
The Company’s financial statements are presented as those of a development stage enterprise. Activities during the developmental stage primarily include equity based financing and further implementation of the Company’s business plan. The Company has not generated any revenues since inception.
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
This summary of significant accounting policies is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles, generally accepted in the United States of America, and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for cash, approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE PERIOD FROM DECEMBER 28, 2010 (DATE IF INCEPTION) TO OCTOBER 31, 2011
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Income Taxes
The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year; and, (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. 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. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if, based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
ASC 740-10 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition of a tax position taken or expected to be taken on a tax return. Under ASC 740-10, a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position taken or expected to be taken may be recognized only if it is “more likely than not” that the position is sustainable upon examination, based on its technical merits. The tax benefit of a qualifying position under ASC 740-10 would equal the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority having full knowledge of all the relevant information. A liability (including interest and penalties, if applicable) is established to the extent a current benefit has been recognized on a tax return for matters that are considered contingent upon the outcome of an uncertain tax position. Related interest and penalties, if any, are included as components of income tax expense and income taxes payable.
Earnings (Loss) per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income, or loss, by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income, or loss, by the weighted average number of shares of both common and preferred stock outstanding for the period.
There were no dilutive equity instruments for the period from December 28, 2010 October 31, 2011.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTSFOR THE PERIOD FROM DECEMBER 28, 2010 (DATE IF INCEPTION) TO OCTOBER 31, 2011
New Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.
NOTE 3 - STOCKHOLDER’S EQUITY
During the period ended October 31, 2011 the Company issued 4,005,640shares of common stock at par value of $0.001 to the founders of the corporation, for a total consideration of $131,655.
NOTE 4 - INCOME TAX | | | |
|
As of October 31, 2011, deferred tax assets consist of: | | | |
Non-capital losses available for carryforward | | $ | 125,419 | |
Valuation allowance | | | (125,419 | ) |
Net deferred tax assets | | $ | - | |
Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences and net operating loss carry forwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. As the achievement of required future taxable income is uncertain, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance.
The difference between the statutory tax rate of 15% and the effective tax rate of 0% is due to the valuation allowance for deferred income tax assets.
NOTE 5 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 27, 2012 the Company consummated a Share Exchange Agreement, whereby it acquired100% of the shares of 152724 Canada Inc., in exchange for the issuance of 3,838,191shares of common stock and 8,133,309 shares exchangeable into shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001.
The above transaction has been accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization) with the Company being deemed the legal acquirer and 152724 Canada Inc. being deemed the accounting acquirer.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
152724 Canada Inc. (o/a Quinko-Tek International)
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of 152724 Canada Inc. (o/a Quinko-Tek International) as of January 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in stockholders' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits, these financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of 152724 Canada Inc. (o/a Quinko-Tek International) as of January 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2011 AND 2010
(Expressed in United States Dollars)
152724 Canada Inc. operating as Quinko-Tek International (the "Company" or "Quinko-Tek") was incorporated in 1986 under the federal laws of Canada and operates primarily in Montreal, Canada. The Company is a wholesaler and importer of hardware for the furniture and cabinet trade.
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
The accounting policies of the Company are in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Presented below are those policies considered particularly significant:
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized once products are delivered to the customer and the transfer of ownership risks and benefits inherent to the property occurs. Revenue is recognized if persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Inventory
Inventory is comprised of finished goods that the Company intends to resell to its customers. It is valued at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined on a first-in, first-out basis. Cost includes components of invoice cost, foreign exchange, freight and duties. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the normal course of business, less applicable variable selling costs. The Company records lower of cost or market value adjustments based upon changes in market pricing, customer demand, or other economic factors for on-hand excess or slow-moving inventory.
Trade receivables
The Company's accounts receivable and related allowance for doubtful accounts are analyzed in detail on a quarterly basis and all significant customers with delinquent balances are reviewed to determine future collectability. Reserves are established in the quarter in which the Company makes the determination that the account is deemed uncollectible. As at January 31, 2011 and 2010, the allowance for doubtful accounts was assessed as $136,548 and $58,712, respectively.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED JANUARY 31, 2011 AND 2010
(Expressed in United States Dollars)
2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 740 Income Taxes which prescribes the use of the liability method whereby deferred tax asset and liability account balances are determined based on differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates. The effects of future changes in tax laws or rates are not anticipated.
Under ASC No. 740 income taxes are recognized for the following: a) amount of tax payable for the current year, and b) deferred tax liabilities and assets for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized differently in the financial statements than for tax purposes.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These estimates are reviewed periodically, and, as adjustments become necessary, they are reported in earnings in the period in which they become known. The Company's significant estimates include the allowance for doubtful accounts, the provision for slow-moving inventory, the useful lives and impairment of capital assets, the valuation allowance for deferred income taxes, accrued amounts for contingent and other liabilities, exchange rates used in foreign currency translation, fair values of financial instruments, and provisions for sales and purchase returns..
Earnings or Loss Per Share
The Company accounts for earnings per share pursuant to ASC No. 260 Earnings Per Share, which requires disclosure on the financial statements of "basic" and "diluted" earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents (if dilutive) related to stock options and warrants for each year.
There were no dilutive equity instruments for the years ended January 31, 2011 and 2010.

2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
Foreign Currency Translation
Management has determined that the functional currency of the Company is the Canadian dollar. The Company's accounts have been translated into United States dollars in accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 830 Foreign Currency Matters. Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are denominated in US dollars and European Euros. In accordance with the provisions of ASC No. 830, transaction gains and losses on these assets and liabilities are included in the determination of income for the relevant years. Adjustments resulting from the translation of the financial statements from their functional currencies to US dollars are accumulated as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income and have not been included in the determination of net income for the relevant years.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with the requirements of ASC No. 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. ASC No. 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:
Level 1 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 - Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.
The nature and valuation of the Company's financial instruments are discussed in note 12.
Comprehensive Income
ASC No. 220 Comprehensive Income establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive income is presented in the statements of changes in stockholders' equity (deficit), and consists of foreign currency translation adjustments. ASC No. 220 requires only additional disclosures in the financial statements and does not affect the Company's financial position or results of operations.

2. | SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
Leases
The Company leases property and equipment in the ordinary course of business. Significant lease obligations relate to vehicles, equipment, and premises. These leases have varying terms and may or may not include purchase or buyout options and guaranteed residuals. The terms of these leases are considered when determining whether a lease is classified as operating or capital.
Assets under capital lease are capitalized using interest rates appropriate at the inception of each lease and are amortized over their estimated useful lives, using the same method as similar assets that the Company owns. The present value of the lease payments is recorded as a debt obligation.
Other leases are classified as operating when lease terms are significantly shorter than the assets' economic useful lives, or minimum lease payments are significantly lower than the purchase cost of the asset. Management expects that in the normal course of business, these leases will be renewed, replaced with new leases, or replaced with fixed asset expenditures. Minimum lease payments for the next five years are disclosed in note 10.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at historical cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation, based on the estimated useful lives of the assets, is provided using the under noted annual rates and methods:
| Equipment | 20% declining balance |
| Furniture and fixtures | 20% declining balance |
| Computer hardware | 30% declining balance |
| Computer software | 30% declining balance |
| Leasehold improvements | 10 years straight line |
Valuation of Long-Lived Assets
In accordance with ASC No. 360 Property, Plant, and Equipment, long-lived assets to be held and used are analyzed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicated that the related carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company evaluates at each balance sheet date whether events and circumstances have occurred that indicate possible impairment. If there are indications of impairment, the Company uses future undiscounted cash flows of the related asset or asset grouping over the remaining life in measuring whether the assets are recoverable. In the event such cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded asset values, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or fair value of the asset less costs to sell. Management has assessed that there is no impairment of long-lived assets as of January 31, 2011 and 2010.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), clarifying the existing measurement and disclosure requirements and expanding the disclosure requirements for certain fair value measurements. This new standard would be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2012. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), requiring entities to present net income and other comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement or in two consecutive statements of net income and other comprehensive income. Reclassification adjustments between net income and other comprehensive income must be shown on the face of the statement(s), with no resulting change in net earnings. This new standard would be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2012. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
The carrying amounts of trade accounts receivable are reduced by an allowance that reflects management’s best estimate of the amounts that will not be collected. On January 31, 2011 and 2010, the allowance was $136,548 and $58,712, respectively. Management individually reviews all accounts receivable balances and creates an allowance for doubtful accounts based on the credit worthiness of specific accounts and an estimate of other uncollectible accounts based on historical performance and current economic conditions.

10. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCY (Continued) |
Contingency
The Company has been named as the defendant in a lawsuit involving claims of approximately $62,000. In the opinion of management, this lawsuit is without merit and no provision has been made for these claims in the financial statements. Should any loss result from these claims, such amount would be a reduction in net income in the year in which the loss occurs.
11. | RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS |
The following transactions with related parties as described in note 9 were in the normal course of operations and were measured at the exchange value which represented the amount of consideration established and agreed to by the related parties.
a) | Sales to Quinko-Tek Quebec in the amount of $448,915 (2010 - $472,857) |
b) | Purchases from Quinko-Tek Quebec in the amount of $247,887 (2010 - $297,024) |
c) | Management fees from Quinko-Tek Quebec in the amount of $19,486 (2010 - $23,776). |
| On May 4, 2010, Vinn Investments forgave $974,300 of the advances owing by Quinko-Tek. The remaining balance of these advances are described in note 9. Forgiveness of these advances are included in calculation of net earnings for the year ended January 31, 2011. |
e) | Included in accounts payable is an amount owing of $333,309 (2010 - $46,598) to Quinko-Tek Quebec and an amount owing of $Nil (2010 - $12,029) to a shareholder. |
12. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
Fair Values
The Company's financial instruments include accounts receivable and payable, bank indebtedness, income taxes payable, loans payable, and advances from related parties.
The estimated fair value of financial instruments has been determined by the Company using available market information and valuation methodologies. Considerable judgment is required to estimate fair value. Accordingly, the estimates may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. As of January 31, 2011 and 2010, the carrying amounts of the above financial instruments approximate their fair values due to the short term maturities of these instruments. The long term advances from related parties are due on demand but have been subordinated in favor of the banking convenants imposed by HSBC. Since the date of repayment of these advances cannot be determined at this time, their fair values are not practical to estimate.

12. | FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) |
Credit Risk Management
Credit risk is the risk that a counterparty will fail to meet its obligations to the Company for amounts owed. The Company is exposed to credit risk on the accounts receivable from its customers. In order to reduce its credit risk, the Company monitors the financial condition of its customers and reviews the credit history of each new customer. Management regularly reviews the credit terms of their customers and adjusts them to correspond to historical trends or changing economic circumstances. As of January 31, 2011, 15% of accounts receivable were due from one customer.
Foreign Currency Risk
Foreign currency risk is the risk that fluctuations in the rates of exchange between foreign currencies and the Canadian dollar will impact future cash flows. The Company is exposed to foreign currency risk on the settlement of certain assets and liabilities which are denominated in foreign currencies other than the Company's functional currency, most notably the United States Dollar and European Euro.
As of January 31, 2011, assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies were as follows:
| | US Dollars | | | Euros | |
Cash (included in bank indebtedness) | | | 17,671 | | | | 14,802 | |
Accounts receivable | | | 520,405 | | | | - | |
Accounts payable | | | 804,905 | | | | 73,788 | |
The Company enters into foreign exchange contracts to hedge future cash flows in US dollars and Euros whereby it purchases specific amounts of currencies at predetermined dates and exchange rates. These contracts are matched with anticipated operational cash flows in US dollars and Euros, the amounts of which are estimated based on current conditions in the Company's markets and past experience. The Company does not trade in foreign exchange contracts for speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that fair value of future cash flows from a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk on its operating line of credit, which is interest bearing at a variable rate based on the HSBC prime rate.

NOTES TO PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
The following unaudited pro forma balance sheet gives effect to the Share Exchange Agreement entered into between Quinko-Tek International Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Quinko USA” or the “Company”) and 152724 Canada Inc. (O/A Quinko –Tek International), a corporation organized in 1986 pursuant to the federal laws of Canada (“Quinko”). The unaudited pro forma balance sheet has been prepared from the historical financial statements of Quinko USA and Quinko and should be read in conjunction therewith.
On January 26, 2012 the Company consummated a Share Exchange Agreement, whereby it acquired 100% of the shares of Quinko in exchange for the issuance of 3,838,191 shares of common stock and 8,133,309 exchangeable shares into common stock of the Company, par value $0.001. As a result of the transaction, the former shareholders of Quinko will have received approximately 75% ownership of the Company.
The above transaction has been accounted for as a reverse merger (recapitalization) with the Quinko USA being deemed the legal acquirer and Quinko being deemed the accounting acquirer. Accordingly, the historical financial information presented in the financial statements is that of Quinko as adjusted to give effect to any difference in the par value of the issuer’s and the accounting acquirer’s stock with an offset to additional paid in capital. The basis of the assets and liabilities of Quinko, the accounting acquirer, has been carried over in the recapitalization. The terms of the Agreement were consummated on January 26, 2012 and Quinko USA now owns 100% of the equity interests of Quinko.
Management believes that the assumptions used provide a reasonable basis on which to present the unaudited pro forma financial data. The unaudited pro forma financial statement information has been provided for informational purposes only and should not be considered indicative of the Company’s financial position or results of operations. In addition, the unaudited pro forma financial statement information does not purport to represent the future financial position or results of operations of the Company.
PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS
The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements incorporate the following pro forma adjustments:
(a) | Common stock has been reduced by $459 to eliminate the shares of Quinko upon consolidation |
(b) | To record the reverse merger and recapitalization of Quinko, including the elimination of Quinko USA’s losses and accumulated deficit and the issuance of 8,133,309 shares of common stock and 3,838,191 exchangeable shares into common stock of the Company, par value $0.001. |

Nevada Revised Statutes 78.7502 provides as follows with respect to indemnification of directors, officers, employees and agents:
| (a) | We may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action, except an action by us, by reason of the fact that he is or was our director, officer, employee or agent, or is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other person at our request, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he: (i) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties as a director or officer pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; and (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. |

| (b) | We may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any action by us, by reason of the fact that he is or was our director, officer, employee or agent, or is or was serving as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other person at our request, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he: (i) is not liable for breach of his fiduciary duties pursuant to Nevada Revised Statutes 78.138; and (ii) acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to our best interest. We may not indemnify him for any claim, issue or matter as to which he has been adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction, after exhaustion of all appeals therefrom, to be liable to us or for amounts paid in settlement to us, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the action or suit was brought or other court of competent jurisdiction determines upon application that in view of all the circumstances of the case, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court deems proper. |
| | |
| (c) | To the extent that our director, officer, employee or agent has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, we are required to indemnify him against expenses, including attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense. |
Our Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws provide for elimination of any liability of our directors and officers and indemnity of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.
The above-described provisions relating to the exclusion of liability and indemnification of directors and officers are sufficiently broad to permit the indemnification of such persons in certain circumstances against liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to our directors and officers and to persons controlling us pursuant to the foregoing provisions, we have been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable.
Item 15. Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities
In August 2011, we sold 4,005,640 shares of common stock for approximately $130,000. The restricted shares were sold to 111 non-U.S. investors pursuant to a private placement offering at $0.033 per share. Such securities were not registered under the Securities Act. The issuance of these securities was exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act. We made this determination based on the representations of Investors, which included, in pertinent part, that such shareholders were not a “U.S. person” as that term is defined in Rule 902(k) of Regulation S under the Act, and that such shareholders were acquiring our securities, for investment purposes for their own respective accounts and not as nominees or agents, and not with a view to the resale or distribution thereof, and that the shareholders understood that the shares of our common stock may not be sold or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption therefrom.
On January 26, 2012, we issued 3,838,191 shares to Joshua Kroo in exchange for his 210 shares in CanCo. These shares were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and were issued as founders shares. These shares of our common stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered.
Pursuant to the rollover agreement and the support agreement, on January 26, 2012, we reserved 8,133,309 shares of common stock for issuance to individuals and entities as designated by the owners of the Exchangeable Shares in exchange for 445 outstanding shares of CanCo. Such securities were not registered under the Securities Act. These securities qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act since the issuance securities by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a “public offering” as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of securities offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of securities to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such securities are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act. This restriction ensures that these securities would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a “public offering.” Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act for this transaction.

Item 17. Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
i. To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
ii. To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement.
iii. To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(4) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(5) Each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities: The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
i. Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
ii. Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
iii. The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
iv. Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of Quebec, Canada, on February 29, 2012.
