CREATOR CAPITAL LIMITED
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2010
(Stated in US Dollars)
Note 1 | Nature and Continuance of Operations |
| |
| Creator Capital Limited (the “Company”) is a Bermuda exempted company, which in June 1997, changed its name from Sky Games International Ltd. to Interactive Entertainment Limited and on September 27, 2000 changed its name to Creator Capital Limited. At the 2010 Annual General Meeting the Shareholders approved to change the name of the Company to Fireflies Environmental Limited. At the next Annual General Meeting the Company will be requesting shareholder approval for returning the Company name to Creator Capital Limited |
| |
| The Company is publicly quoted on the NASD Over the Counter Bulletin Board in the United States of America. |
| |
| The Company is engaged in providing in-flight gaming and entertainment software and services by developing, implementing and operating or licensing computerized video gaming and other entertainment software on, but not limited to the aircraft of international commercial air carriers. Gaming software is marketed using the name Sky Games® and the entertainment software is marketed using the name Sky Play®. |
| |
Note 2 | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| |
| These consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting of the International Financial Reporting Standards” (known by its abbreviation “IFRS”). These Interim Financial Statements are the Company’s first IFRS interim financial statements after its transition to reporting in accordance with IFRS and before the issuance of its first publicly issued consolidated annual IFRS financial statements. IFRS 1, “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” (herein addressed as “IFRS 1”) has been applied to these consolidated interim financial statements. An explanation of how the transition to IFRS has affected the reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows statements of the Company is provided in Note 13. |
| |
| Differences with respect to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are described in Note 13. Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates, which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results may differ from these estimates. |
| |
| The consolidated financial statements have, in management’s opinion, been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below: |
| a) | Principles of Consolidation |
| | |
| | The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: |
| | |
| | Creator Capital (Nevada) Inc., (formerly Sky Games International Corp.) (a Nevada corporation); and Creator Island Equities Inc. (a British Columbia corporation). |
Creator Capital Limited September 30, 2011 Interim Financials Page - -
Note 2 | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d) |
| | | The subsidiary companies are inactive. All material inter-company accounts and transactions |
have been eliminated on consolidation.
| | | As at the end of the current Interim period there are no current equipment assets. |
| c) | Website Development Costs |
| | As at the end of the current interim period there are no current website development costs. |
| | The carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments, consisting of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accrued dividends payable and notes payable approximate their fair value due to the short-term maturity of such instruments. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or currency risk arising from these financial instruments. For accounts receivable, the Company estimates, on a continuing basis, the probable losses and provides a provision for losses based on the estimated realizable value. |
| e) | Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share |
| | Basic loss per share (“LPS”) is calculated by dividing loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the year. Diluted LPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if potentially dilutive securities are exercised or converted to common stock. The dilutive effect of options and warrants and their equivalent is computed by application of the treasury stock method and the effect of convertible securities by the “if converted” method. Fully diluted amounts are not presented when the effect of the computations are anti-dilutive due to the losses incurred. Accordingly, there is no difference in the amounts presented for basic and diluted loss per share. |
| | The Company recognizes revenues when the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an agreement exists, shipment has occurred, the price to the buyer is fixed and determinable, and collection is reasonably assured. |
| g) | Foreign Currency Translation |
| | The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate in effect at the end of the year. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate prevailing when the assets were acquired or liabilities assumed. Revenues and expenses are translated at the rate approximating the rate of exchange on the transaction date. All exchange gains and losses are included in the determination of net loss for the year. |
| h) | Impairment of Long-lived Assets |
| | Long-lived assets and intangibles held and used by the Company are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset that an entity expects to hold and use may not be recoverable, future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its disposition must be estimated. If the undiscounted value of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, impairment is recognized. |
Note 2 | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – (cont’d) |
Creator Capital Limited September 30, 2011 Interim Financials Page - -
| i) | Stock-based Compensation |
| CCL records a compensation cost attributable to all stock options granted at fair value at the grant date,. The Black-Scholes valuation model is used and the cost is expensed over their vesting period, with a corresponding increase to the equity account, Additional Paid-in Capital. Upon exercise of the share purchase options, the consideration paid by the option holder, together with the amount previously recognized in the Additional Paid-in Capital, is recorded as an increase to Share capital. |
| The Black Scholes option valuation model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including price volatility, if any. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate. |
| j) | Change in Accounting Policy |
| A number of new standards, and amendments to standards and interpretations, are not yet effective for the period ended March 31, 2011, and have not been applied in preparing these consolidated interim financial statements: |
| (i) Effective for annual periods beginning on or after July 1, 2011 are the Amendments to IFRS 7, “Financial Instruments: Disclosures”. This addresses the increase in disclosure with regards to the transfer of financial assets, especially if there is a disproportionate amount of transfer transactions that take place around the end of a reporting period. |
| |
| (ii) Effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 are the New Standard IFRS 9, “Financial Instruments”, New Standard IFRS 13,”Fair Value Measurement”. |
| IFRS 13 replaces the fair value measurement guidance currently dispersed across different IFRS standards with a single definition of fair value and extensive application guidance. IFRS 13 provides guidance on how to measure fair value and does not introduce new requirements for when fair value is required or permitted. It also establishes disclosure requirements to provide users of the financial statements with more information about fair value measurements. |
| The Company has not early adopted these revised standards and is currently assessing the impact that these standards will have on the financial statements. |
| IFRS 39 stipulates that the Company’s financial liabilities be measured at ‘amortized cost’. This is defined as the originally recorded amount: less any principal repayments; plus or minus the cumulative amortization, using the effective interest method’ of any difference between the originally recorded amount and the maturity amount. The various loan amounts, represented by the Notes Payable, have been recorded at their principal amount at the date of each loan, which are deemed to be fair value. No premium was paid on any of these Notes Payable. No transaction costs were incurred in the borrowing of these funds. The interest bearing Notes Payable have their interest cost calculated and recorded monthly. Hence, the use of the measurement of value of the Notes Payable at amortized cost would not be materially different from the amounts presented. |

BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
CCL's business is focused on providing inflight gaming software systems and services by developing, implementing and operating a computer-based interactive video entertainment system of gaming and other entertainment activities on, but not limited to, the aircraft of international commercial air carriers. The Company offers two suites of entertainment: Sky Play® - a catalogue of popular interactive amusement games, and Sky Games® an inflight Gaming system consisting of the more popular casino games.

Sky Play® is currently used by Sri Lankan Airways.
The Product
Sky Play®
Sky Play® PC Interactive Games offers airlines the choice of up to 19 amusement games. Unlike Nintendo-style games, which are designed to keep the player challenged and interested over long periods of time, and which generally require player skill developed over a period of time, CCL has selected and developed the Sky Play® amusement games which have very simple rules, are already well known or easy to learn, and are very simple to play. Games are licensed to airlines for a monthly license fee on a per-game, per aircraft basis.

The Industry
According to Boeing Company's 2010-2029 Current Market Outlook (“CMO”) annualized world GDP is forecast to grow at an average of 3.2% per year over the next 20 years beginning in 2008, an increase of 0.1%. The report noted that, the total market potential for new commercial airplanes is 29,000. Over the long term, CCL believes these forecasts represent a substantial market for In-flight Entertainment (“IFE”) systems and in-flight content over the long-term. CCL’s financial performance is dependent on the environment in which its business operates. During the second half of 2008, global economic growth slowed as the US entered a recession. As the global economic growth entered the recession it was assumed it would slow market growth over the next couple of years. However, the CMO noted during the first half of 2010 the industry rebounded with passenger traffic projected to rise 6.0% for that year.
Boeing has observed the resilience that global airline markets have shown over time is reflected in average annual passenger traffic growth of 4.9 percent and air cargo growth of 5.4 percent over the past 20 years. This growth was founded on world economic growth of 3.2 percent and further stimulated by liberalization of market regulations in many countries. Looking ahead over the next 20 years, the world economy is set to grow at 3.2 percent.
The introduction and acceptance of portable (non embedded or installed) IFE units is growing steadily. The positive impact of these portable IFE units/systems is the trend towards lighter, less expensive IFE architecture, with the focus of such architecture being the individual seating area of each passenger. Boeing has found that there is a shifting balance toward smaller twin-aisle airplanes in the future is driven by passengers who prefer to travel directly between their points of origin and destination.
Looking ahead, the Asia-Pacific, Latin America and Africa regions’ traffic are growing at the fastest rates of 6.9%, 6.4% and 6.4% respectively. Boeing’s CMO 2009 predicts that the Asia-Pacific (including within China) will become the largest internal market over the next 20 years, overtaking the market within North America. Markets in Asia-Pacific have powerful combinations of large economies, rapid economic growth, and liberalizing markets. These figures are a positive factor in CCL’s continuing strategy for initially targeting airlines in the Asia Pacific region.
Regional traffic trends are an important factor in CCL’s marketing strategies. According to the Boeing CMO annual passenger traffic will grow by 7.1 % in the Asia Pacific region; 6.0% in the Transpacific Region; 2.8% within North America; 4.1% within Europe; 7.1% within Latin America; 5.7% in Africa. IMDC also states that key growth markets will be China and India. However, the longer haul, twin aisle market will remain the focus for CCL’s Sky Games.
An observation by Sally Gethin in her March 2007 article in Aircraft Interiors International “All bets are off?” confirms CCL’s research and conclusions regarding the potential of Gaming on International airlines: She states that gaming is a numbers game: “Gambling over existing airline IFE systems could provide phenomenal returns for airlines – higher even than existing games offered on board according to research conducted by IMDC, which provides forecasting and surveys for airlines and IFE manufacturers.”
Gethin also quotes the 1995 Department of Transportation report to the US Congress that states that potential earnings of US$1 million per aircraft per annum are indeed possible.
Gethin also mentions CCL in the article under its former name; “During the 1990s, a company called IEL offered low stakes in-flight gambling to the international airline business and worked with Singapore Airlines to install the necessary software. This was short-lived due to incompatibility issues with the software and the IFE hardware, which impacted upon reliability.” Such incompatibilities no longer exist. Technology has improved to the point of offering not only much more sophisticated, embedded hardware, but also the very viable option of portable units. Such portability echoes of CCL’s initial concept of a portable gaming device, which could be issued on the aircraft in exactly the same manner as the portable IMS Pea in the Pod and the DigePlayers are issued today.
Competition
There are currently four companies supplying the in-flight interactive PC games marketplace: Creator Capital, DTI, Nintendo, and Western Outdoor Interactive. Creator is a distant fourth in the industry.
Creator Capital Limited September 30, 2011 Interim Financials Page - -
Competition (cont’d)
IMDC reports that there are three main types of interactive software packages offered by games suppliers; games; gambling software, and educational software. Not all suppliers supply in all three areas. CCL currently offers games and gambling software.
Market and Marketing
In the very competitive airline market, airlines are seeking a distinctive, competitive edge to attract and retain paying customers. Entertainment and service systems form a part of the airlines’ current business strategy. CCL believes that the principal benefit of its product to the airlines is the ability to enhance entertainment offerings to passengers. IFE systems are capital intensive; however, providing passenger service and comfort, especially for first and business class travelers, is a major area of competition for airlines. The target market for Sky Play® has been domestic and foreign airlines, which have committed to the purchase of, or already have installed IFE systems.
CCL's primary target market has been Asian and Pacific Rim airlines whose passengers, with certain exceptions, generally have a broad cultural acceptance of gaming. The Company also believes that the Latin American markets also hold significant potential.
CCL believes that the principal benefits of its product to the airlines will be passenger satisfaction and airline participation in a potential alternate “non-ticket” revenue stream. IFE systems are capital intensive; however, providing passenger service and comfort, especially for first and business class travelers, is a major area of competition for airlines. The Company believes that new methods of increasing revenues while providing a high level of service will be seriously considered by the airlines; however, there can be no assurance that in-flight gaming will be among the alternatives considered by airlines. Although the system is designed for gaming using currency, the system could be adapted to "pay-for-play" mode in those circumstances where gaming utilizing currency is not legal and that a system utilizing frequent flyer credits and other rewards can be integrated as part of the gaming program.
CCL expects to derive its income from a split of gaming revenues with the airline. The Company does not anticipate selling its gaming products in order to generate revenue. Airlines will receive a percentage of net revenue generated by Sky Games® on their respective flights. Passenger payouts and certain direct operating costs will be deducted from revenue and the "win" will be split on a negotiated basis. Airlines have utilized similar revenue-sharing arrangement with other product/service providers, such as in-flight communication companies (e.g. GTE Airfone). CCL would provide certain training, banking, accounting and administrative functions. The airline will provide the aircraft, the equipment, the passengers and in-flight personnel.
CCL is currently reviewing its future strategies in the airline market by researching and evaluating the process of developing several new games for the Sky Play® PC Interactive Games Catalogue, while updating some of the current games. This will enable CCL to offer current client fresh material, while affording an opportunity to re-visit previous clients and potential new clients. CCL is also currently re-evaluating and redesigning the Sky Games®® In-flight Gaming System in order to ensure its smooth integration in to the newer, more sophisticated IFE hardware platforms being developed and introduced to the Airline Industry today.
Major Customers
The Company’s Sky Play® customer is Sri Lankan Airways.
The World Economy
As with all businesses selling products during these current unstable economic times, the short-term will be very challenging. Economic forecasts are being constantly challenged with the slow and erratic effort of the Worldwide Economy to recover from the Recession. Being involved in the airline industry, with its volatile economic fluctuations, the period of time it takes for the Global economy to climb out of the Worldwide Recession may be longer than the Company’s business can financially survive. With all of Revenues generated in the Asian Region, the Company’s business is subject to that volatile region’s ability to recover.

DISCUSSION OF OPERATION AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
Fiscal Nine Month Interim Period Ended September 30, 2011 with comparatives to the Fiscal Nine Month Interim Period Ended September 30, 2010
REVENUES
Revenue consists of fees generated from the licensing of the Sky Play® PC based amusement games to the Airline Industry. Airline clients install the games on their inflight entertainment systems (IFE) as part of the inflight entertainment offered to passengers.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At September 30, 2011, the Company had a working capital deficit of $7,419,601 (2010: $6,714,208). The moving of the Preferred Share amount from Equity to the current Liability designation has contributed to this deficit. The Company had a loss from operations during the nine months Interim period ended September 30, 2011 of $536,738 ($457,936 for 2010). The diminished revenue is now not sufficient to provide the necessary funds for marketing, for continued development of the Company's products nor to fund payment of the Company's dividend obligations on outstanding preference shares. The Company negotiated a restructuring and reduction of certain amounts owed to two of its largest creditors and to a best effort deferred payment plan on these obligations. One of the Notes Payable creditors completed their bankruptcy with total liquidation. Despite the Company’s efforts with the Receiver they ended up with a judgment against the Company. To date, no further correspondence has been received. Due to the operating losses of the past years, the Company’s continuance as a “going concern” is dependent upon its ability to obtain adequate financing and to reach profitable levels of operation. It is not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful or if the Company will attain profitable levels of operations in its current business activities.
CAPITAL FINANCING
There were no capital financings during the period. All operations and expenses were funded by the cash flow generated by revenues and accounts payable.

Results for quarters ended March 31, 2011 and March 31, 2010 are prepared under “IFRS”. Results in all other Quarters were prepared under Canadian generally accepted accounting principles included in Part V of the CICA Handbook (pre-changeover Canadian GAAP).
For the Quarters June 30, 2009 to December 31, 2009, the above results were recorded under the Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, as governed and regulated by the CICA Handbook. The March 31, 2010 Quarter’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting of the International Financial Reporting Standards” (known by its abbreviation “IFRS”). For the Quarters March 31, 2010 to December 31, 2010 there is no difference to the results under the IFRS, as compared to the Canadian generally accepted accounting principles, as governed and regulated by the CICA Handbook.
The invoicing arrangement with the Company’s client is for bi-monthly invoicing for the prior sixty day business periods. The Client provides the details of the Sky Play games’ usage during the prior sixty days. The Company issues the invoice, submitting it to the client for approval. With the client’s acceptance, the invoice is deemed issued and the amount is recognized as revenue. Such bi-monthly invoicing does not allow for a consistent Quarterly flow of revenue. Hence, there is a consistent difference each Quarter in the recording of Revenue.
The June, 2009 Quarterly Revenue experienced an increase of $1,750 from the March, 2009 Quarter’s Revenue of $14,020: the difference being the date of one client’s bimonthly invoice. The increase in the Loss of $24,385 for the Quarter from the March, 2009 Loss of $43,626 was a result of the Texas lawsuit expense.
The September, 2009 Quarterly Revenue results were a decrease of $1,830 from the June, 2009 Quarterly Revenue:
the difference being the date of one client’s bimonthly invoice and the reduction in the other client’s invoice for the month. The increase in the loss is due to the recording of additional audit fees during the quarter.
The December, 2009 Quarterly Revenue was $15,650, an increase from the three months September, 2009 Quarter of $13,940: the difference being the date of one client’s bimonthly invoice and the reduction in the other client’s invoice for the month. The substantial increase in the loss is related to the auditors correction to the amount of the Preferred Dividends recorded. There is a cumulative dividend on outstanding dividends that was not previously recorded annually.
Creator Capital Limited September 30, 2011 Interim Financials Page - -
This correction was made in this fourth quarter of the year.
The March, 2010 Three Months Quarterly Revenue results were a decrease of $2,650 from December, 2009 Three Months Quarterly Revenue: the difference being the date timing of one client’s bimonthly invoice and the reduction in the other client’s invoice for the month. Jalux has been slowly retiring its older airliners that have the Sky Play games installed. The inclusion of the Quarterly recording of the cumulative dividend feature was not included in this Quarter for the auditors had not informed the Company of this until the next Quarter.
The June, 2010 Quarterly Revenue experienced a decrease of $4,100 from the March, 2010 Quarter’s Revenue. The Jalux airliner retirement is the cause. The loss is due to the addition in this Quarter of the March, 2010 cumulative dividend feature as well as this Quarter’s cumulative dividend. During the Quarter, a new legal counsel was consulted.
The September, 2010 Quarterly Revenue results were a decrease of $1750, from the June, 2010 Quarterly Revenue: the difference being the date of one client’s bimonthly invoice. The decrease in the loss is due to the recording of only the Quarter’s Preferred Share dividend.
The December, 2010’s Quarterly revenues of $3,500 reflected the closing of the Jalux account. With their bankruptcy proceedings accelerating the retirement of all their older inefficient airliners, Sky Play is no longer on any of their airplanes.
The March, 2011 Three Months Quarterly Revenue of $1,750 is from the one client in Asia. This is a bimonthly invoicing. The increase in the loss reflects the loss of Jalux, as well as an auditor’s recommended adjustment to the outstanding Preferred Dividend balance.
The June, 2011 Quarterly Revenue experienced an increase of $1,750 from the March, 2011 Quarter’s Revenue of $1,750: the difference being the date of the client’s bimonthly invoice.
The September, 2011 Quarterly Revenue results were a decrease of $1750 from the June, 2011 Quarterly Revenue: the difference being the date of the client’s bimonthly invoice. A contributing factor to the increase in the loss is increase in legal fees incurred by the new corporate legal counsel.
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)
In 2006, AcSB published a new strategic plan that will significantly affect financial reporting requirements for all reporting Companies, including this Company. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five year transitional period. In February, 2008, the AcSB announced that the year 2011 is the changeover year for publicly-listed companies to use IFRS, replacing Canadian GAAP. The date is for interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The transition date of January 1, 2010 required the restatement of comparative purposes of amounts reported by the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010.
These consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting of the International Financial Reporting Standards” (known by its abbreviation “IFRS”). These Interim Financial Statements are the Company’s first IFRS interim financial statements after its transition to reporting in accordance with IFRS and before the issuance of its first publicly issued consolidated annual IFRS financial statements. IFRS 1, “First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards” (herein addressed as “IFRS 1”) has been applied to these consolidated interim financial statements.
An explanation of how the transition to IFRS has affected the reported financial position, financial performance and cash flows statements of the Company is provided in Notes 2 & 11 to the Financial Statements.
Because a precise determination of many assets and liabilities is dependent upon future events, the preparation of financial statements for a period necessarily involves the use of estimates, which have been made using careful judgment. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
