INTRODUCTION

The phrase “fiscal year” refers to the twelve months ended March 31 of the relevant year. All references to “$” or “dollars” mean U.S. dollars, unless otherwise indicated. All financial information with respect to us has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, unless otherwise indicated.

We were incorporated pursuant to the Company Act (British Columbia) on April 28, 2003, but were continued to the Province of Alberta on September 29th, 2009. We are a natural resource company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of natural resource properties.  We commenced operations on April 28, 2003.  As of the date of this filing, we have no active exploration programs.

We are an exploration stage company and there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit will exist on any of the properties that we are currently exploring, or on any other properties that we may be considering for acquisition.  Exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility is determined.

We publish our financial statements expressed in US Dollars and prepare a compilation statement to comply with U.S. GAAP. In this document, references to “US dollars” or “US$” are to the currency of the United States of America.

Our fiscal year ends on March 31 of each year. References in this document to a particular year are to the fiscal year unless otherwise indicated.

D.           Risk Factors

Company risks:

1.  Because our auditors have issued a going concern opinion we may not be able to achieve our objectives and may have to suspend or cease operations.  Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion.  This means that there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an ongoing business for the next twelve months.  Currently, we need a minimum of US$20,000 in order to survive as a business for the next twelve months and we currently do not have plans to enter into any debt obligations with unrelated third parties in the next twelve months. We had US$2,462.00in cash as of March 31, 2010.  On April 28, 2008, our officer and director, Mr. Bruce Johnstone, made a loan to the company in the amount of US$10,000 to be used in conjunction with our existing funds for working capital, and in October 2009, the Company entered into agreements with Mr. Johnstone for additional shareholder loans in the amount of $15,906.

2.  Because the probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves is extremely remote, in all probability the properties we acquire will not contain any reserves, and any funds spent on exploration will be lost. Looking for mineralized material below the surface of the earth is very speculative.  While equipment can detect mineralized material beneath the surface of the earth, the detection devices cannot determine the type of mineralized material.  The type of mineralized material can only be determined by extracting it from the ground. The likelihood of taking an unexplored piece of land and finding mineralized material is improbable. The likelihood of locating a valuable reserve is remote.  Because the probability of an individual prospect ever having reserves is extremely remote, in all probability any properties that we obtain may not contain any reserves, and any funds spent on exploration will be lost.

3. We lack an operating history and have losses which we expect to continue into the future. As a result, we may have to suspend or cease operations.  We were incorporated on April 28, 2003, and although we have started our business operations, we have not realized any revenues since inception. We have four years of operating history upon which an evaluation of our future success or failure can be made. Our net loss since inception is $2,803,660.  Our ability to achieve and maintain profitability and positive cash flow is dependent upon:

*           our ability to locate, explore and develop a profitable mineral property
*           our ability to generate revenues
*           our ability to reduce exploration costs.

Based upon current plans, we expect to incur operating losses in future periods.  We have not generated any revenues from our operations and we don’t anticipate any in the foreseeable future.  This will happen because there are expenses associated with the research and exploration of mineral properties.  We cannot guarantee we will be successful in generating revenues in the future.  Failure to generate revenues will cause us to go out of business.

4.  We have no interests in any properties, and as yet have no known mineral reserves.  Without mineral reserves we cannot generate income and if we cannot generate income we will have to cease operations which will result in the loss of your investment. We have no interests in any exploration properties, and have no known mineral reserves.  Without mineral reserves, we have nothing to economically remove.  If we have nothing to economically remove from the property, we cannot generate income and if we cannot generate income we will have to cease operation which will result in the loss of your investment.

5.  Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our property acquisitions and exploration and as a result may not find any minerals. Without any property or minerals, we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.  Because we are small and do not have much capital, we must limit our property acquisitions and exploration.  Because we may have to limit our property acquisitions and exploration, we may not find any minerals, even though our properties may contain mineralized material.  Without any minerals we cannot generate revenues and you will lose your investment.

6.  Because our directors have other outside business activities and will only be devoting approximately 4 hours per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic which may result in periodic interruptions or suspensions of exploration.  Because our directors and sole officer have other outside business activities and will only be devoting approximately 4 hours of their time collectively per week to our operations, our operations may be sporadic and occur at times which are convenient to our directors.  As a result, exploration of our properties may be periodically interrupted or suspended.

Industry risks:

7.  We may not have access to all of the supplies and materials we need to begin exploration which could cause us to delay or suspend operations. Competition and unforeseen limited sources of supplies in the industry could result in occasional spot shortages of supplies, such as dynamite, and certain equipment such as bulldozers and excavators that we might need to conduct exploration.  Our exploration efforts will continue as funds permit.  Once further funding is obtained we will attempt to locate products, equipment and materials.  If we cannot find the products and equipment we need we will have to suspend our exploration plans until we do find the products and equipment we need.  Suspension of operations will result in the delay of generation of revenues.

Investment risks:

8.  Because there is a limited public trading market for our common stock, you may not be able to resell your stock. There is currently a limited public trading market for our common stock on the Bulletin Board operated by the National Securities Dealers, Inc.  Therefore, you may not be able to resell you shares.

9.  Because our securities are subject to penny stock rules, you may have difficulty reselling your shares.  Our shares as penny stocks are covered by section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell the Company’s securities including the delivery of a standardized disclosure document; disclosure and confirmation of quotation prices; disclosure of compensation the broker/dealer receives; and, furnishing monthly account statements.  For sales of our securities, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination and receive from its customer a written agreement prior to making a sale.  The imposition of the foregoing additional sales practices could adversely affect a shareholder’s ability to dispose of his stock.

 
9

 

10.  Because all of our assets and most of our directors and sole officer are located outside the United States of America, it may be difficult for an investor to enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or any of our officers and directors. All of our assets are located outside of the United States and we do not currently maintain a permanent place of business within the United States. In addition, most of our directors and officer are nationals and/or residents of countries other than the United States, and all or a substantial portion of such persons’ assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may be difficult for an investor to effect service of process or enforce within the United States any judgments obtained against us or our officers or directors, including judgments predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, there is uncertainty as to whether the courts of Canada and other jurisdictions would recognize or enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against us or our director and officer predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof, or be competent to hear original actions brought in Canada or other jurisdictions against us or our directors and officer predicated upon the securities laws of the United States or any state thereof.

11.  We may become a passive foreign investment company, or PFIC, which could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to U.S. investors.  Since PFIC status will be determined by us on an annual basis and will depend on the composition of our income and assets from time to time (as further discussed below), we cannot assure you that we will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year. Such a characterization could result in adverse U.S. tax consequences to you if you are a U.S. investor. In particular, absent an election described below, a U.S. investor would be subject to U.S. federal income tax at ordinary income tax rates, plus a possible interest charge, in respect of gain derived from a disposition of our shares, as well as certain distributions by us. In addition, a step-up in the tax basis of our shares would not be available upon the death of an individual shareholder. For this reason, if we are treated as a PFIC for any taxable year and you are a U.S. investor, you may desire to make an election to treat us as a “qualified electing fund” with respect to your shares (a “QEF election”), in which case you will be required to take into account a pro-rata share of our earnings and net capital gain for each year, regardless of whether we make any distributions to you. As an alternative to the QEF election, a U.S. investor may be able to make an election to “mark-to-market” our shares each taxable year and recognize ordinary income pursuant to such election based upon increases in the value of our shares. We will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if 50% or more of our assets, including goodwill (based on an annual quarterly average), are passive assets, or 75% or more of our annual gross income is derived from passive assets. The calculation of goodwill will be based, in part, on the then market value of our common shares, which is subject to change. In addition, the composition of our income and assets will be affected by how we spend the cash we raise in any offering.

12.  Because we may issue additional shares of common stock in public offerings or private placements, your ownership interest in us may be diluted.  Because we may issue shares of common stock in public offerings or private placements in order to raise capital for our operations, your ownership interest may be diluted which results in your percentage of ownership in us decreasing.

ITEM 4.                      INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.           History and Development

We are a natural resource company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of natural resource properties.  We commenced operations in 2003.  Natural resource exploration and development requires significant capital and our assets and resources are extremely limited.  Therefore, we anticipate participating in the natural resource industry through the purchase of small interests in either producing properties or natural resource exploration and development projects.  In April of 2005, we optioned two properties worthy of exploration from Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc., a Nevada company, and in February of 2007 we leased a property from Newmont Mining Corp., a company doing business in Nevada.  In 2009, because of a lack of sufficient funds to carry on with exploration activities we had to relinquish all of our interests in the exploration properties back to the respective owners.  Currently we have no interests in any properties.

We are an exploration stage company and there is no assurance that a commercially viable mineral deposit exists on any property we acquire.  Exploration will be required before a final evaluation as to the economic and legal feasibility is determined.

We were incorporated in the Province of British Columbia on April 28, 2003, but on March 27, 2009 the shareholders voted in favor of continuing the Company to the Province of Alberta. On September29th, 2009 the continuance to the Province of Alberta was completed and we are now an Alberta company.

We are engaged in the acquisition and exploration of mining properties. Our Registered Office and Records Office is located at 1000 Canterra Tower, 400 Third Avenue S.W., Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2P 4H2. Our U.S. office is located at 336 – 36th Street, Suite 334, Bellingham, WA, 98225, and is being provided by way of a sharing arrangement with our officer.  As our business operations grow, it may be necessary for us to seek appropriate individual office space. Management believes suitable office space will be available when it is needed.  Our telephone number is (775) 770-0872.

We have no plans to combine with another business, and are not aware of any events or circumstances that might cause us to change our plans.

B.  Business Overview

We are in the business of acquiring, optioning or leasing mineral exploration properties with the intention to explore for gold in the state of Nevada.  Our target is mineralized material.  Our success depends upon finding mineralized material.  Mineralized material is a mineralized body which has been delineated by appropriate spaced drilling or underground sampling to support sufficient tonnage and average grade of metals to justify removal. If we do not find mineralized material or we cannot remove mineralized material, either because we do not have the money to do it or because it is not economically feasible to do it, we will cease operations.

In addition, we may not have enough money to complete the exploration of our property.  If it turns out that we have not raised enough money to complete our exploration program, we will try to raise additional funds from a public offering, a private placement or loans.


 
11

 

On May 9, 2004 we completed our first two private placements whereby we raised US$75,000 and Cdn$2,000.10 by the sale of 45,126 shares at a price of US$2.50, or Cdn$4.00, per share.  No warrants were included with this private placement.  On February 2, 2005, we effected a 3 for 1 forward stock split, which changed the number of shares from 45,126 to 135,394.  This effectively lowered the price paid for each share in this private placement to a cost of US$0.83, or Cdn$1.33 per share.
 
On February 26, 2006, we completed a private placement whereby we raised US$250,000 by the sale of 2,000 Units at a price of US$125 per Unit.  Each Unit consists of (a) one share of common stock (the “Shares”) of the Company, (b) one Class A warrant (the “Class A Warrant”) being exercisable beginning twelve (12) months from the Closing for five years thereafter to purchase one Share at an exercise price of US$150 per Share, and (c) one Class B warrant (the “Class B Warrant”) being exercisable beginning twenty-four (24) months after the Closing for four years thereafter to purchase one Share at an exercise price of US$175 per Share.

On March 23, 2007, we issued 5,000 shares of common stock for $300,000 to settle a loan with a shareholder.  The shares were valued at $60 per share.

On March 30, 2007, we completed a private placement whereby we raised US$451,200 by the sale of 7,520 Units at a price of US$60 per Unit. Each Unit consists of (a) one share of common stock (the “Shares”) of the Company, (b) one half of one Class A warrant (the “Class A Warrant”), each full warrant being exercisable beginning twelve (12) months from the Closing for five years thereafter, to purchase one Share at an exercise price of US$75 per Share.

Over the past six months we have been working to raise additional money to fund our exploration programs in Nevada.  At present, no additional funding has been realized, but efforts are ongoing in this regard. There is no assurance that we will be able to raise additional money in the future.  If we need additional money and cannot raise it, we will have to suspend or cease operations.

On April 11, 2005, the Board voted to increase the number of seats from one director to three, and a resolution was adopted adding Mr. David Mallo and Mr. George Eliopulos to the Board of Directors.  Both Mr. Mallo and Mr. Eliopulos are senior geologists with 25 and 30 years experience respectively. They add significant knowledge and experience to the management team and are responsible for the technical operations of the Company.

On April 20, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc. which gives us the sole exclusive right and option to earn a 100% interest in two Nevada exploration properties known as Bell Flat, and Montgomery Pass.  Having signed an agreement for these properties, we must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals that are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.

The Bell Flat and Montgomery Pass properties were acquired by means of an option agreement whereby we pay an annual fee and work expenditures on both properties (collectively), over a five-year term as follows:

1.           Paying the sum of US$20,000 to the Optionor by way of cash upon signing, and

2.           on or before April 30, 2006:
 
a.
make a work commitment in the aggregate amount of $125,000 on the properties;
b.           and paying $30,000 to the Optionor;


3.           on or before April 30, 2007:
 
a.

As of March 31, 2008, expenditures in the amount of US$264,978.59 have been paid collectively on both properties.

On February 1, 2007, Homeland Exploration, Inc. (HEI), a wholly owned Nevada registered subsidiary of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. signed a definitive agreement with Newmont Mining Corp., a mining company doing business in Nevada.  The agreement is a five-year lease of the Water Canyon Property, the details of which are as follows:

Subject to HEI’s right to terminate the Agreement pursuant to Section 11 of the agreement, HEI shall make Expenditures (defined below) in the total amount of Two Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($2,700,000) in accordance with the following schedule:

 
Due Date
Expenditure Amount
 
On or before one year from the Effective Date
$
150,000
 
On or before two years from the Effective Date
An additional $
300,000
 
On or before three years from the Effective Date
An additional $
500,000
 
On or before four years from the Effective Date
An additional $
750,000
 
On or before five years from the Effective Date
An additional $
1,000,000

As of March 31, 2009, expenditures in the amount of $342,515 had been paid.

HEI’s obligation to make One Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($150,000) in Expenditures on or before one year from the Effective Date is a firm commitment, which shall not be affected by any termination of the Agreement.

Excess Expenditures during any period specified above shall be carried forward and credited against Expenditures required in the subsequent period or periods.  Except as provided in the agreement, if HEI fails to make the required Expenditures during any specified period, HEI shall pay to Newmont in cash, within 30 days after the end of that period, the amount of such deficit.  Upon Newmont’s receipt of that payment, HEI shall be deemed to have satisfied the Expenditure requirement for that period.

HEI can terminate the agreement at any time after the first year’s obligation has been completed.

On June 26, 2008, the Bell Flat and Montgomery Pass projects were terminated and the properties relinquished to the owner.

On November 22, 2008 notice was given to Newmont Mining Corp. of our intention to terminate the agreement with Newmont regarding the Water Canyon Project.

On March 27, 2009 at the Annual and Special General Meeting of the shareholders of the Company, the following items were approved.

 
(1)
A special resolution authorizing the directors to implement a reverse stock split of our common stock on the basis of one post-consolidation share for each 100 pre-consolidation shares.

 
14

 


 
(2)
A special resolution approving an amendment to the Company’s Notice of Articles and Articles to increase the number of authorized common shares from 300,000,000 common shares without par value to an unlimited number of common shares without par value.

 
(3)
A special resolution approving the continuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia to the Province of Alberta.

On May 12, 2009, the aforementioned reverse stock split was complete whereby one post-consolidation share was issued for each 100 pre-consolidation shares.  The result of this reverse stock split was that the issued and outstanding shares of the Company was reduced from 14,989,800 shares of common stock to 149,914 shares of common stock.

On August 25, 2009 consent was received from the British Columbia Registrar of Companies to allow the continuance of the Company out of the Province of British Columbia, and into the Province of Alberta.  On September 29th, 2009 the continuance of the Company to the Province of Alberta was completed.

Our exploration programs are designed to economically explore the properties that we have secured. We do not know if we will find mineralized material, and we do not claim to have any minerals or reserves whatsoever.

If we are unable to complete exploration because we do not have enough money, we will cease operations until we raise more money. If we cannot or do not raise more money, we will cease operations. If we cease operations, we don’t know what we will do and we don’t have any plans to do anything else.

We do not have a plan to take our company to revenue generation. That is because we have not located an ore body yet and it is impossible to project revenue generation from nothing.

If we explore a property and do not find mineralized material, we will allow the option to expire.

Properties

Bell Flat Property

On June 26, 2008, the Bell Flat project was terminated and the property relinquished to the owner.  We determined that continuing with this project was unwarranted due to a lack of encouraging results from our exploration efforts and the property was relinquished to the owner.

Montgomery Pass Panorama Property

On June 26, 2008, the Montgomery Pass Panorama project was terminated and the property relinquished to the owner.  This project also failed to produce encouraging results and the property was relinquished to the owner.

Water Canyon Property

On August 4, 2006, through our wholly owned subsidiary, Homeland Exploration, Inc., we signed a letter of intent with Newmont USA Limited, a subsidiary of Newmont Mining Corporation, to lease the Water Canyon Project. Located adjacent to Newmont’s Mule Canyon Mine, the Water Canyon property consists of approximately 2,560 acres (4 sq. miles) which sits immediately along strike of the Mule Canyon Complex.  Situated in north central Nevada, Water Canyon lies within the Battle Mountain-Eureka Trend and Northern Nevada Rift.  This area has seen prolific precious metal production since the early 1900’s, and large-scale precious metal production continues to this day.

In early March, 2007, we engaged Fritz Geophysics (Fritz) and Zonge Geoscience Inc. (Zonge) to plan out and undertake a 66 line-kilometer Gradient Array Inverse Polarization Survey and a Ground Magnetic survey of the Water Canyon Property.  Zonge performed the field work for both surveys and Fritz did all the data interpretation.  Both surveys were performed in late June and continued into July.  The data interpretation has been completed with encouraging results.  From these results, drill locations were chosen and a Phase 1 rotary drill program was planned for the fall of 2007.  As of August 1, 2007, HEI had already met the Year 1 expenditure obligation of $150,000.  The cost of the fall, 2007 Phase 1 drill program will therefore be considered as part of the Year 2 expenditure requirement.

In October and early November of 2007, we completed 5,325 ft. (1,623 m) of Phase I Reverse Circulation drilling at our Water Canyon gold property, Lander County, Nevada.  Ore grade gold was encountered in one of eight holes, spread out over 8,000 ft. of structure.  Drill hole WC-07-3 encountered 65 ft. of 0.027 opt Au starting at a depth of 240 ft., including 25 feet of .052 opt Au from 265-290 ft. Elevated gold values were also found in WC-07-6, approx. 7,000 ft. north of WC-07-3, in an area where anomalous drill results were found in previous drill programs by Newmont and Santa Fe.  The results begin to suggest a trend of mineralization that appears to be controlled by the major structural margin of the Tertiary graben that defines the Northern Nevada Rift.

From November 2007 to November 22, 2008, no additional exploration work was performed on the Water Canyon project.  All work commitments as of the November 22, 2008 date were completed and the Company’s agreement with Newmont was in good standing at that time.  However, due to insufficient exploration funds, we had to give notice to Newmont that we would be unable to meet the next year’s commitment and would therefore have to terminate the agreement.  Failure to give this notice would have put us in default.  Newmont expressed an interest in amending the agreement in a way that would allow us time to secure further exploration funding, but as of the date of this filing, we have heard nothing from Newmont regarding this amendment, and our attempts to contact the appropriate people at Newmont have been unsuccessful.  As a result of this, and the fact that our attempts to raise further exploration funding has proven unsuccessful, we consider this project terminated.

Competitive Factors

The gold mining industry is fragmented.  We will be competing with other exploration companies looking for gold.  We are one of the smallest exploration companies in existence.  We are an infinitely small participant in the gold mining market.  While we may be competing for property, once the property is optioned, there will be no competition for the exploration or removal of minerals from the property.  Readily available gold markets exist in Canada and around the world for the sale of gold.  Therefore, we will be able to sell any gold that we are able to recover.

Environmental Law and Regulations

The prospecting on our claims is provided under the existing 1872 Mining Law and all permits for exploration and testing must be obtained through the local Bureau of Land Management (BLM) office of the Department of Interior. Obtaining permits for minimal disturbance as envisioned by this exploration program will require making the appropriate application and filing of the bond to cover the reclamation of the test areas. From time to time, an archeological clearance may need to be contracted to allow the testing program to proceed.
 
We will secure all necessary permits for exploration and, if development is warranted on the property, will file final plans of operation before we start any mining operations. We anticipate no discharge of water into active stream, creek, river, lake or any other body of water regulated by environmental law or regulation. No endangered species will be disturbed. Restoration of the disturbed land will be completed according to law. All holes, pits and shafts will be sealed upon abandonment of the property. It is difficult to estimate the cost of compliance with the environmental law since the full nature and extent of our proposed activities cannot be determined until we start our operations and know what that will involve from an environmental standpoint.

We are in compliance with all laws and will continue to comply with the laws in the future. We believe that compliance with the laws will not adversely affect our business operations.

Subcontractors

We intend to use the services of subcontractors for manual labor exploration work on any properties that we may acquire.  Mr. Johnstone will handle our administrative duties, and a project manager will be subcontracted for the oversight of any work programs. Mr. Mallo will be responsible for reviewing any progress reports provided to us from the project manager.  The subcontractors we hire will determine the number of persons it will employ for surveying, exploration, and excavating of the property. Further, we will hire geologists and engineers as independent contractors on an as needed basis.

Employees and Employment Agreements

At present, we have no employees, other than our management team which consists of our two directors, one of which is our sole officer.  Our management team work part-time for our company and do work for other companies as well.  They will devote four hours collectively per week to our operation.  Our directors and sole officer do not have employment agreements with us.  We presently do not have pension, health, annuity, insurance, profit sharing or similar benefit plans; however, we may adopt plans in the future.  There are presently no personal benefits available to our directors and sole officer other than the following option plan. On April 8, 2005, we filed a Form S-8 registration with the SEC for an option plan for our company that allows up to a maximum of fifty thousand options to be issued to management, staff, and consultants to the company.

We are a natural resource company engaged in the acquisition and exploration of natural resource properties. We do not own any properties, plants or equipment.


ITEM 5.                      OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance.  Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like: believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events.  You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this annual report. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical results or our predictions.

We are an exploration stage corporation that does not have any interests in any ore bodies, and have not yet generated or realized any revenues from our business operations.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion.  This means that although we believe we have enough money to fund our operations for the next twelve months, there is substantial doubt that we can continue as an on-going business unless we obtain additional capital to pay our bills. This is because we have not generated any revenues and no revenues are anticipated until we obtain an interest in a producing property, find mineralized material and delineate an ore body on one or both of our existing exploration properties, and begin removing and selling minerals.  As of March 31, 2010, we had US$2,462 in cash. On April 28, 2008, our officer and director, Bruce Johnstone, made a loan to the company of US$10,000 which is to be used in conjunction with our existing funds for working capital.  In October of 2009 Mr. Johnstone made additional loans of $15,906 to the Company. We believe that the combined amount stated above is enough to fund our activities for the next twelve months.

Exploration Expenditures and Working Capital

We cannot be specific about the application of funds for exploration as we currently do not have any active projects and do not know what projects we might be able to secure. If we attempted to be too specific, every time an event occurred that would change our allocation, we would have to amend this annual filing. We believe that the process of amending the annual filing would take an inordinate amount of time and not be in your best interest in that we would have to spend money for legal fees which could then not be spent on exploration.

Our basic overhead cost is the cost related to operating our office.  It is comprised of expenses for mail, stationary and other office supplies, and legal and accounting fees related to filing reports with the SEC.  Office equipment, and minor office services are provided free of charge as an accommodation by our officer and director, Mr. Bruce Johnstone.

We have allocated a range of money for operations.  That is because we do not know how much will ultimately be needed for exploration.    When we are able to secure a project, and a detailed analysis of expenditures is made, we will be better able to budget for these expenditures.

 
18

 


If we discover significant quantities of mineralized material, we will begin technical and economic feasibility studies to determine if we have reserves.  Only if we have reserves will we consider developing the property.

If through early stage exploration we find mineralized material and it is feasible to expand the exploration program beyond what we have allocated funds for, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans from officers or others.

We have discussed this matter with our officer and Board of Directors, however, with the exception of the US$10,000 and US$15,906 loans from our officer, our directors and sole officer are unwilling to make any commitment to loan us any significant amounts of money at this time.   Over the past twelve months we have been working to raise additional money to fund our exploration programs in Nevada. At present, no additional funding has been realized, but efforts are ongoing in this regard. If we need additional cash and can’t raise it we will either have to suspend operations until we do raise the cash, or cease operations entirely.

We are not going to buy or sell any plant or significant equipment during the next twelve months.  We will not buy any equipment until we have located a body of minerals and we have determined they are economical to extract from the land.

If we are unable to complete any phase of exploration because we don’t have enough money, we will cease operations until we raise more money.  If we can’t or don’t raise more money, we will cease operations.  If we cease operations, we don’t know what we will do and we don’t have any plans to do anything.

We do not intend to hire any employees at this time.  Any work that needs to be done on any properties that we may secure, will be conducted by unaffiliated independent contractors that we will hire.  The independent contractors will be responsible for surveying, geology, engineering, exploration, and excavation.  Our geologists will evaluate any information derived from any exploration and excavation and contracted engineers will advise us on the economic feasibility of removing any mineralized material if we find any.

As we have no interests in any properties at this time, our plan of operation is to continue looking for additional funding for the Company and to look for properties that might be available for us to negotiate an interest in.

As of March 31, 2010, we have determined an operations budget for the 2010-2011 fiscal year.  These figures have been estimated based on past experience, but the actual amounts that we spend may vary because costs may fluctuate depending on what we are able to secure for a project.  The budget is estimated as follows:

Bell Flat Property

No work was performed over the last year on the Bell Flat property. Work previously completed on the Bell Flat property consisted of rock sampling, geological mapping and auger drilling.  In late September 2005, an auger drill program was undertaken, and an additional 18 claims were filed for the Bell Flat property.  This filing brought the land area on the Bell Flat property up to 400 acres in size.  The auger drill program took about 10 days to complete, and the samples collected from these grid drill holes were sent to ALS Chemex in Sparks, Nevada, for analysis.  The cost for the auger drilling was $10,396.  The cost of analysis was $5,092.  The analysis yielded broad anomalous gold values on the south end of the property and higher discrete values on the north end. This work program defined new areas of precious metal mineralization that correlate with the previous geophysical survey anomalies identified by Hemlo Gold in 1993, and supports the findings outlined in the re-analysis of the geophysical survey done earlier this year by Fritz Geophysics. The auger sampling anomalies, along with the surface rock chip samples previously collected from the property, define a discrete zone of alteration and mineralization that can be followed for over 1600 meters (1 mile). There are no plans for a follow up drill program as there were insufficient signs that further expenditures on this property were warranted. On June 26, 2008, this project was terminated and the property relinquished to the owner.  No reclamation work was required or performed on this property.

Montgomery Pass Panorama Property

In early September 2007, drilling resumed on the Montgomery Pass property in a zone called the QC Target, located in the north central part of the property.  Previous drilling by Primero in 1997 intersected a vein or veins from surface to 115 feet in their Hole 97-4.  The entire interval averaged about 1.48 g/t gold and 15 g/t silver.  Our 2007 drill program was intended to offset Primero’s hole 97-4 immediately adjacent updip, east and west.  Our holes were 50 to 75 feet offsets from west to east except hole 07-02 which was positioned near Primero’s hole 97-4 and drilled at a -50 degree angle compared to Primero’s -70 degree angle.  Hole 0701 was drilled vertically to 350 feet and intersected 115 feet of anomalous to ore grade material from 0 to 115 feet.  The hole was drilled vertically to determine the dip of the contact and to drill obliquely to the veins.  Hole 0701 may have intersected 4 separate veins from a few feet to over 10 feet thick.  Intervals between the mineralized zones carried only meager gold values.  Hole 0702 was located 50 feet east of Primero hole 97-04 and angled at -50 degrees at a bearing of due north to a depth of 270 feet.  This hole had a single intercept at or near the contact of the carbonate/volcanic fault.  No obvious veining was observed elsewhere in the hole.  The intercept of 3.2 g/t over 5 feet was highest value encountered in the drilling to date.  Hole 0703 was drilled approximately 100 feet to the east from hole 0702 and angled at -60 degrees at a bearing of due

 
20

 

north to a depth of 220 feet.  The best five foot interval of 0.163 g/t Au, occurred at the top of the hole.  The hole was positioned on top of an adit dump.  Although significant vein material was intersected within the hole adjacent to the contact, gold values did not reach ore grades.  Hole 0704 was drilled another 100 feet east of hole 0703 and angled at -70 degrees at a bearing of 020 degrees to a depth of 250 feet.  The entire hole was anomalous in gold with the first 70 feet averaging the best grades.  No ore grades were encountered in the hole.

No exploration work was performed on this property since the completion of the September 2007 drill program.  The results from drilling were insufficient to warrant further exploration on this property.  In May of 2008, reclamation work was performed on the property as per the requirements of the National Forest Service.  In August, 2008, the reclamation work was inspected by the National Forest Service and approved on a conditional basis.  This means that the re-growth to date was acceptable for the elapsed time frame, and a partial refund of the reclamation bond was returned.  On September 19, 2008 we received a cheque for US$750, and on January 10, 2009 we received a cheque for US$2400, both of which were partial refunds of the US$5,750 bond originally paid. This leaves a refund balance still owed to us of US$2,600.  Further refunds will continue as future inspections of the reclamation work are performed.

On June 26, 2008, this project was terminated and the property relinquished to the owner, however the Company is still responsible for the completion and final acceptance of the property reclamation by the National Forest Service.  This should be complete sometime in the upcoming year.

Water Canyon Property

On February 1, 2007, the definitive agreement with Newmont Mining Corporation and Homeland Precious Metals Corp.’s wholly owned subsidiary, Homeland Exploration, Inc. (HEI) became effective.  The property consists of about 2600 acres (approximately 4 square miles) of fee lands and unpatented mining claims situated approximately 1.5 miles north of Newmont’s Mule Canyon Gold Mine. This agreement requires us to spend a minimum of $150,000 on the property by the anniversary date of the first year.

In early March, 2007, we engaged Fritz Geophysics and Zonge Geoscience Inc. to plan out and undertake a Gradient Array Inverse Polarization Survey and a Ground Magnetic survey of the Water Canyon Property.  Zonge Geoscience performed the field work for both surveys and Fritz Geophysics did all the data interpretation.  Both surveys were performed in late June 2007 and continued into July 2007.  The data interpretation was completed with encouraging results. The collected data outlined a series of six sets of anomalous IP Chargeability highs that are direct analogs of the type of IP expression encountered at Newmont Mining Corporation’s adjacent Mule Canyon Mine. The cost for the IP and ground magnetics survey was US$109,562.91.  Other costs associated with this project, such as claim fees, insurance, land title providence and other sundry expenses amounted to US$41, 519.34 for a total project cost as of August 30, 2007 of US$151,082.25.

During late August and early September 2007, our geologists worked with the geophysicists to detail and outline a reverse circulation drill program for Water Canyon.  From this, an eight-hole, 1623 meter Phase l reverse circulation drill program was planned.  In October 2007, a drilling company was contracted for the drill program, and eight holes were drilled in two of the six IP Chargeability highs on the property. The highlight of our initial drilling evaluation at Water Canyon was hole 07-03, located approximately two miles north of the North Pit within Newmont Mining Corporation’s Mule Canyon Mine complex.  Within hole 07-03, a highly anomalous 20-metre interval graded 0.933 g/t

 
21

 

gold from 73 to 93 meters.  This same interval contains a 7.6 meter section between 80.0 and 88.4 meters which returned an average grade of 1.78 g/t gold and included a 3-meter section grading 2.67 g/t.  Further, hole 07-03 hosts elevated gold values down-hole to 198 meters ranging to 0.470 g/t over 1.5 meters from 193.5 to 195 meters; 0.380 g/t over 1.5 m from 141.7 to 143.2 meters; and 0.382 g/t over 1.5 m from 175.2 to 176.7 meters.  Another of our drill holes, 07-06, located approximately 2 miles further north from drill hole 07-03, bottomed in anomalous gold mineralization (0.398 g/t gold over a 1.5 meter interval) within clay altered tuffaceous volcaniclastics.  Difficult ground conditions forced the early termination of hole 07-06 within the gold mineralization.

From November 2007 to November 22, 2008, no additional exploration work was performed on the Water Canyon project.  All work commitments as of the November 22, 2008 date were completed and our agreement with Newmont was in good standing at that time.  However, due to insufficient exploration funds, we had to give notice to Newmont that we would be unable to meet the next year’s commitment, and would therefore have to terminate the agreement.  Failure to give this notice would have put us in default.  Newmont expressed an interest in amending the agreement in a way that would allow us time to secure further exploration funding, but as of the date of this filing we have heard nothing from Newmont regarding this amendment despite our attempts to contact the appropriate people at Newmont.  As a result of this, and the fact that our attempts to raise further exploration funding has proven unsuccessful, we consider this project terminated.

Operating History

We now have seven years of operations upon which to base an evaluation of our performance.  We are an exploration stage corporation and have not generated any revenues from operations. We cannot guarantee we will be successful in our business operations. Our business is subject to risks inherent to that of a resource exploration business enterprise, including limited capital resources, possible delays in the exploration of properties we may secure, and possible cost overruns due to price and cost increases in services.

We will not have to retain experts to assist us in locating appropriate projects, as we have a veteran geologist on our Board of Directors that can oversee this aspect of our business enterprise. In order to assist in deciding if we should invest in a particular project, we will first obtain at least the following:

*           A description of the project and the location of the property;
*           The lands that will be subject to the exploration project;
*           The royalties, net profit interest or other charges applicable to the subject lands;
*           The estimated cost of any geophysical work contemplated; and
 
*
The estimated acquisition costs, exploration costs and development costs of the property.

To become profitable and competitive, we will have to conduct research and exploration of the properties we have acquired, to determine if there is an economical ore body on which we may start production.

We have no assurance that future financing will be available to us on acceptable terms.  If financing is not available on satisfactory terms, we may be unable to continue, develop or expand our operations.  Equity financing could result in additional dilution to existing shareholders.

Results of Operations

From Inception on April 28, 2003

Since inception, we obtained a small shareholder loan and have used our common stock to raise money for our start up expenses and initiate operations. Cash provided by financing activities from inception on April 28, 2003 to March 31, 2008 is $877,726 of which $701,200 was raised through four private placements. On March 15, 2005 we obtained a loan of $100,000 from a minority shareholder, and on March 23, 2007, this loan was expunged by issuing 5,000 shares of common stock to the lender as per the terms of the loan.

On April 20, 2005, we entered into an agreement with Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc. which gives us the sole exclusive right and option to earn a 100% interest in two Nevada exploration properties known as Bell Flat, and Montgomery Pass.  Having signed an agreement for these properties, we must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on our properties and if any minerals that are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.

The Bell Flat and Montgomery Pass properties were acquired by means of an option agreement whereby we pay an annual fee and work expenditures on both properties (collectively), over a five-year term.

On March 30, 2007, Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc. amended the terms of the aforementioned agreement whereby we pay an annual fee and work expenditures on both properties (collectively), over a five-year term.

As of March 31, 2008, expenditures in the amount of US$264,978.59 have been paid collectively on both properties.

In August of 2005, Fritz Geophysics, and independent analytical company, did a re-interpretation of an IP-Resistivity survey that we had from a previous operator on the property, and produced a positive report that confirmed our belief that further exploration on the property should be conducted.  Because of this new information, we decided to expand our land position surrounding the Bell Flat property, and in September of 2005, filed an additional 18 claims to increase the Bell Flat property to 400 acres in size.

In September, 2005, we initiated an auger drill program to test the overburden material for mineral content, and the results of this auger drill program yielded broad anomalous gold values on the south end of the property and higher discrete values on the north end, and defined new areas of precious metal mineralization that correlate with the previous geophysical survey anomalies identified by Hemlo Gold in 1993, and supports the findings outlined in the re-analysis of the geophysical survey done earlier this year by Fritz Geophysics.

In December of 2005, we obtained permitting for a planned drill program on our Montgomery Pass property.  Because it was winter, and the property is at elevation, the drill program was planned for the following work season.

In July of 2006 the planned work program for Montgomery Pass was initiated, but because of poor performance from the drill contractor and weather related obstacles, only half of the planned holes were actually drilled.  The holes drill were on the Hound Dog target which is located on the northeastern portion of the property and encompasses an altered flow dome or flow unit approximately 4500 feet long and 50 to 650 feet wide.  Previous drilling by others encountered ore grade mineralization. Our drill program was designed to offset the previous best hole (97-08) on the east and above the high grade intercept. We drilled four holes with a combined total of 1220 feet.  Mineralized vein continuity was not upheld with the best assay being 0.42 g/t gold over 5 feet.

In September of 2007, drilling resumed on the Montgomery Pass property Phase l drill program with a 4 hole drill program on the QC Target.  The target is in the north central part of the property. Of the four holes drilled on the QC Target, hole H0702 showed the highest intercept of 3.2 g/t gold over 5 feet and was the highest value encountered in our drilling to date.  Only slightly anomalous mineralization was encountered in the other holes.  It is recommended that before any further drilling is planned, that additional geologic mapping be done.  New advances in deposit modeling should be coupled with a new geologic map and possibly a geophysical survey to further define the target.

On March 29, 2006, we completed a private placement with a single person whereby we raised US$250,000 by the sale of 2,000 Units at a price of US$125per Unit. Each Unit consisted of (a) one share of common stock (the “Shares”) of the Company, (b) one Class A warrant (the “Class A Warrant”), exercisable beginning twelve (12) months from the Closing (as defined below) for five years thereafter, to purchase one Share at an exercise price of US$150 per Share, and (c) one Class B warrant (the “Class B Warrant”; and together with the Class A Warrant, the “Warrants”), exercisable beginning twenty-four (24) months from the Closing (as defined below) for four years thereafter, to purchase one Share at an exercise price of US$175 per Share.

On March 15, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement for a loan with a shareholder in the amount of $100,000. On March 23, 2007, the Company settled this loan by issuing 5,000 restricted common shares.

On March 30, 2007, we completed a private placement whereby we raised US$451,200 by the sale of 7,520 Units at a price of US$60 per Unit. Each Unit consists of (a) one share of common stock (the “Shares”) of the Company, a British Columbia corporation, (b) one half of one Class A warrant (the “Class A Warrant”), each full warrant being exercisable beginning twelve (12) months from the Closing for five years thereafter, to purchase one Share at an exercise price of US$75 per Share.

On February 1, 2007, Homeland Exploration, Inc. (HEI), a wholly owned Nevada registered subsidiary of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. signed a definitive agreement with Newmont Mining Corp., a mining company doing business in Nevada.  The agreement is a five-year lease of the Water Canyon Property.  HEI can terminate the agreement at any time after the first year’s obligation has been completed.

In early March, 2007, we engaged Fritz Geophysics (Fritz) and Zonge Geoscience Inc. (Zonge) to plan out and undertake a 66 line-kilometer Gradient Array Inverse Polarization Survey and a Ground Magnetic survey of the Water Canyon Property.  Zonge performed the field work for both surveys and Fritz did all the data interpretation.  Both surveys were performed in late June and continued into July.  The data interpretation was completed with encouraging results.  From these results, drill locations were chosen and a Phase 1 rotary drill program planned for the fall of 2007.

In October and early November of 2007, we completed 5,325 ft. (1,623 m) of Phase I Reverse Circulation drilling at our Water Canyon gold property, Lander County, Nevada.  Ore grade gold was encountered in one of eight holes, spread out over 8,000 ft. of structure.  Drill hole WC-07-3 encountered 65 ft. of 0.027 opt Au starting at a depth of 240 ft., including 25 feet of .052 opt Au from 265-290 ft. Elevated gold values were also found in WC-07-6, approx. 7,000 ft. north of WC-07-3, in an area where anomalous drill results were found in previous drill programs by Newmont and Santa Fe.  The results begin to suggest a trend of mineralization that appears to be controlled by the major structural margin of the Tertiary graben that defines the Northern Nevada Rift.  Further drilling is supported, and plans for this are currently being reviewed.

No exploration work was done in the 2008-2009 fiscal year due to lack of funding.

In May of 2008, reclamation work was performed on the property as per the requirements of the National Forest Service.

On June 26, 2008, the Montgomery Pass Panorama project was terminated and the property relinquished to the owner, however the Company is still responsible for the completion and final acceptance of the property reclamation by the National Forest Service.

On June 26, 2008, the Bell Flat project was terminated and the property relinquished to the owner.  No reclamation work was required or performed on this property.

In August, 2008, the reclamation work was inspected by the National Forest Service and approved on a conditional basis.  This means that the re-growth to date was acceptable for the elapsed time frame, and a partial refund of the reclamation bond was returned. On September 19, 2008 we received a cheque for US$750, and on January 10, 2009 we received a cheque for US$2400, both of which were partial refunds of the US$5,750 bond originally paid. This leaves a refund balance still owed to us of US$2,600.  Further refunds will continue as future inspections of the reclamation work are performed.

On November 22, written notice was given to Newmont Mining Corporation that we would be unable to meet our future work commitments on the Water Canyon project, and that we would therefore have to terminate the agreement.  A verbal response from Newmont was that they would like to consider an amendment to our agreement so as to allow us the time to raise additional exploration funding for the project, but as of the date of this filing we have heard nothing further from Newmont.  We must therefore consider this project terminated as per our notice of November 22, 2008.

On March 27, 2009 at the Annual and Special General Meeting of the shareholders of the Company, the following items were approved.

 
(1)
A special resolution authorizing the directors to implement a reverse stock split of our common stock on the basis of one post-consolidation share for each 100 pre-consolidation shares.

 
(2)
A special resolution approving an amendment to the Company’s Notice of Articles and Articles to increase the number of authorized common shares from 300,000,000 common shares without par value to an unlimited number of common shares without par value.


 
25

 

 
(3)
A special resolution approving the continuance of the Company from the Province of British Columbia to the Province of Alberta.

On May 12, 2009, the aforementioned reverse stock split was complete whereby one post-consolidation share was issued for each 100 pre-consolidation shares.  The result of this reverse stock split was that the issued and outstanding shares of the Company were reduced from 14,989,800 shares of common stock to 149,914 shares of common stock.

On August 25, 2009 consent was received from the British Columbia Registrar of Company’s to allow the continuance of the Company out of the Province of British Columbia.

On September 29th, 2009 the continuance of the Company to the Province of Alberta was completed.

No exploration work was done in the 2009-2010 fiscal year due to lack of funding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of the date of this annual filing, we have yet to generate any revenues from our business operations.

We issued 135,394 (including rounding shares of 16)  shares of common stock in 2003 in consideration of US$75,000 and CDN$2,000.  The foregoing 135,394 shares reflects a 3 for 1 stock split which occurred on February 3, 2005, and then a 100 for 1 reverse stock split which occurred on May 12, 2009.

On March 29, 2006, we issued an additional 2,000 shares as part of a private placement which raised $250,000 for our company.

On March 23, 2007, we issued an additional 5,000 shares to settle a US$100,000 loan from a shareholder that was taken out on March 15, 2005.

On March 30, 2007, we issued an additional 7,520 shares as part of a private placement which raised $451,200 for our company.

In the fiscal periods ending March 31, 2010 and March 31, 2009, we used cash for operational activities in the amounts of US$16,113 and US$36,540 respectively.

As of March 31, 2010, our total assets were US$2,462 in cash and $2,600 in restricted cash and our total liabilities were $30,996 which consisted of accounts payable, a shareholder loan and funds set aside for the estimated remediation of our exploration properties.  Our assets are comprised of the funds raised from the aforementioned financing activities.

On April 28, 2008, our officer and director, Mr. Bruce Johnstone, made a loan to the Company in the amount of US$10,000 for working capital.  On September 9, 2009 we issued 1,000,000 restricted common shares, with a market price of $.05 per share or $50,000, to settle this US$10,000 loan and recorded interest expense of $40,000.

ITEM 9.                      THE OFFER AND LISTING

A.           Offer and Listing Details

We are required to file an annual report on Form 20-F with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Form 6-K. Form 6-K is required to be filed when the laws of Alberta require us to disclose information. The Form 6-K must be filed promptly after information is made public by us. As a foreign private issuer, we will not be subject to the reporting obligations of section 13, except as set forth above; the proxy rules of section 14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934; or, the insider reporting or short-swing profit rules of section 16 of the Exchange Act.

On October 14, 2004, our securities began trading on the over-the-counter on the Bulletin Board operated by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. under the symbol “HPMEF.” On June 8, 2009, the trading symbol was changed to “HPMFF” as a result of a 100 for 1 reverse split that occurred on May 12, 2009.  As trading is thin and sporadic, a shareholder may therefore be unable to resell the securities referred to herein should he or she desire to do so.  Furthermore, it is unlikely that a lending institution will accept our securities as pledged collateral for loans unless a regular trading market develops. On March 21, 2005, the bid price was $0.05 and a last trade price was $0.02. The following sets forth a summary of trading prices from June 30, 2007 through August 30, 2010.

The shares were split 3:1 effective February 3, 2005, and then were reverse split 100:1 on May 12, 2009.  The following figures are adjusted for these splits.

Our shares are covered by section 15(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended that imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors (generally institutions with assets in excess of $5,000,000 or individuals with net worth in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 jointly with their spouses). For transactions covered by the Rule, the broker/dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase and have received the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction prior to the sale. Consequently, the Rule may affect the ability of broker/dealers to sell our securities and also may affect your ability to sell your shares in the secondary market.

Section 15(g) also imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker/dealers who sell penny securities. These rules require a one page summary of certain essential items. The items include the risk of investing in penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary marketing; terms important to in understanding of the function of the penny stock market, such as bid and offer quotes, a dealers spread and broker/dealer compensation; the broker/dealer compensation, the broker/dealers’ duties to its customers, including the disclosures required by any other penny stock disclosure rules; the customers’ rights and remedies in cases of fraud in penny stock transactions; and, the FINRA’s toll free telephone number and the central number of the North American Administrators Association, for information on the disciplinary history of broker/dealers and their associated persons.

ITEM 10.                      ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

A.           Share Capital

Common Stock

Our authorized common stock consists of unlimited shares, no par value per share. The holders of our common stock:

*
have equal ratable rights to dividends from funds legally available if and when declared by our board of directors;

*
are entitled to share ratably in all of our assets available for distribution to holders of common stock upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our affairs;

*
do not have preemptive, subscription or conversion rights and there are no redemption or sinking fund provisions or rights; and

*
are entitled to one non-cumulative vote per share on all matters on which stockholders may vote.

All shares of common stock, now outstanding, are fully paid for and non-assessable and all shares of common stock will be fully paid for and non-assessable. We refer you to our articles of incorporation, bylaws and the applicable statutes of the laws of Alberta for a more complete description of the rights and liabilities of holders of our securities.

Non-cumulative voting

Holders of shares of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights, which means that the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares, voting for the election of directors, can elect all of the directors to be elected, if they so choose, and, in that event, the holders of the remaining shares will not be able to elect any of our directors.

Cash dividends

As of the date of this annual filing, we have not paid any cash dividends to our stockholders. The declaration of any future cash dividend will be at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend upon our earnings, if any, our capital requirements and financial position, our general economic conditions, and other pertinent conditions. It is our present intention not to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future, but rather to reinvest earnings, if any, in our business operations.

Preferred Stock

We are authorized to issue up to 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, no par value.  No preferred shares are outstanding.  The preferred shares were not subject to the stock split that occurred on February 3, 2005 or the reverse stock split that took place on May 12, 2009.


 
36

 

Anti-takeover provisions

There are no Alberta anti-takeover provisions that may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.

E.           Taxation

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

This description is our counsel's opinion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations to investors who hold our common shares as a capital asset.   This discussion is based upon, as of the date hereof, the applicable provisions of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury Regulations promulgated or proposed thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretation thereof, all of which are subject to change either prospectively or retroactively, or are subject to different interpretations. We have not obtained nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service as to any United States federal income tax consequences discussed below and there can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service will not take contrary positions.

As used herein, the term "U.S. Holder" means a beneficial owner of common shares that is for United States federal income tax purposes:

*
a citizen or resident of the United States;
*
a corporation, or other entity taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof;
*
an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or
*
a trust, if both (a) a United States court is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust, and (b) one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust. The discussion below does not address all of the United States federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to U.S. Holders in light of their particular circumstances, nor does it address the tax consequences to U.S. Holders subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, such as:
 
*
certain financial institutions;
*
insurance companies;
*
traders in securities that elect to mark-to-market;
*
securities dealers;
*
partnerships or other entities classified as partnerships for United States federal income tax purposes;
*
tax-exempt organizations;
*
persons that hold the common shares as part of an integrated investment (including a straddle);
*
persons owning, directly, indirectly or constructively, 10% or more of voting stock of Homeland Precious Metals Corp.; and
*
persons whose Afunctional currency@ is not the U.S. dollar. The discussion also does not address the tax consequences arising under the laws of any foreign, state or local jurisdiction.

General

Distributions

Subject to the discussion under "Special Tax Provisions" below, distributions of cash or property made by Homeland Precious Metals Corp. with respect to the common shares will constitute dividends to U.S. Holders, to the extent that the distributions are made out of current or accumulated earnings and profits of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. (as determined for United States federal income tax purposes). Dividends paid by Homeland Precious Metals Corp. are includable in a U.S. Holder's gross income and are taxable as ordinary income. We may pay dividends in U.S. dollars or we may pay dividends in Canadian dollars.  We will make that determination, if and when we decide to pay a dividend and not before. If a portion of a distribution made by Homeland Precious Metals Corp. with respect to the common shares exceeds its current and accumulated earnings and profits, that portion will be treated as nontaxable return of capital, which will reduce the U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the common shares (but not below zero). To the extent a distribution exceeds the U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the common shares; the distribution will constitute capital gain.   Dividends received by a corporate U.S. Holder from Homeland Precious Metals Corp. will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction.

For United States foreign tax credit purposes, a distribution treated as a dividend for United States federal income tax purposes will constitute income from sources outside the United States. In the case of U.S. Holders who are not residents of Canada, the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention (1980), as amended (the "Convention"), provides that dividends received in respect of the common shares generally will be subject to a 15% Canadian withholding tax. Subject to limitations set forth in the Code, as modified by the Convention, including certain minimal holding periods, U.S. Holders may elect to claim a foreign tax credit against their U.S. federal income tax liability for Canadian tax withheld from dividends paid in respect of common shares. The limitation on foreign taxes eligible for the foreign tax credit is calculated separately with respect to specific classes of income. For this purpose, dividends paid by Homeland Precious Metals Corp. generally will constitute "passive income," or in the case of certain U.S. Holders, "financial services income." The rules relating to the United States foreign tax credit are extremely complex and the availability of the foreign tax credit depends on numerous factors. Prospective investors are urged to consult their own tax advisors concerning the application of the United States foreign tax credit rules in light of their particular circumstances.
   
If a dividend is paid in a currency other than the U.S. dollar, the amount includible in a U.S. Holder's gross income will be the U.S. dollar value of the dividend, calculated by reference to the exchange rate in effect on the date the U.S. Holder receives the dividend, regardless of whether the payment actually is converted into U.S. dollars. Gain or loss, if any, that a U.S. Holder realizes as a result of currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date the U.S. Holder includes the dividend in gross income to the date the U.S. Holder converts the payment into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss for United States federal income tax purposes.  This gain or loss  will be from sources within the United States for United States foreign tax credit purposes.


 
41

 

Dispositions

Subject to the discussion of "Special Tax Provisions" immediately below, upon a sale or other taxable disposition of the common shares, a U.S. Holder will recognize taxable gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash and the fair market value of other property that the U.S. Holder receives in the sale or other taxable disposition (the "amount realized") and the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the common shares. Subject to the passive foreign investment company rules discussed below, the U.S. Holder's gain or loss will be capital gain or loss.  The gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the common shares were held by the U.S. Holder for more than one year.

Long-term capital gains recognized by certain non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals) are eligible for preferential United States federal income taxation rates.  Any gain or loss recognized by U.S. Holders on a sale or other taxable disposition of the common shares will be treated as derived from U.S. sources for United States foreign tax credit purposes.

The deduction of capital losses is subject to certain limitations under the Code. A capital loss realized by a non-corporate U.S. Holder is allowable as an offset against capital gain and up to $3,000 of ordinary income. Any capital loss not utilized in any taxable year by a non-corporate U.S. Holder may be carried forward indefinitely and used to offset capital gain and up to $3,000 of ordinary income in any future taxable year of the non-corporate U.S. Holder. A capital loss realized by a corporate U.S. Holder is allowable as an offset only against capital gain. Any capital loss not utilized by a corporate U.S. Holder first must be carried back and applied against capital gain in the three years preceding the year of the sale or other taxable disposition giving rise to the capital loss, and then may be carried forward to the five taxable years subsequent to the year of the sale or other taxable disposition.  The amount that a corporate U.S. Holder  may carry back is limited, however, to an amount that does not increase or produce a net operating loss in the carry back year.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Backup withholding and information reporting requirements may apply to distributions made by Homeland Precious Metals Corp. to a U.S. Holder with respect to the common shares, or to the proceeds of a sale, redemption or other disposition of the common shares. Under the backup withholding rules, a paying agent may be required to withhold tax from a U.S. Holder's distributions or proceeds, if the U.S. Holder fails to furnish a correct taxpayer identification number and comply with certain certification procedures, or otherwise fails to comply with the applicable requirements of the backup withholding rules. Some U.S. Holders (including, among others, corporations) are exempt from the backup withholding requirements.  Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules  may be claimed by a U.S. Holder as a credit against the U.S. Holder's United States federal income tax liability and the U.S. Holder may be entitled to receive a refund, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.  We will assume responsibility for withholding any taxes.


 
42

 

Special Tax Provisions

Some provisions of the Code specifically deal with the United States federal income tax treatment of investments by U.S. persons in foreign corporations and may alter the United States federal income tax consequences described above or propose special rules for United States foreign tax credit purposes.

Passive Foreign Investment Company

U.S. persons owning shares of a "passive foreign investment company" ("PFIC") are subject to a special United States federal income tax regime with respect to specified distributions received from the PFIC and gain from the sale or disposition of PFIC stock.  A foreign corporation will be classified as a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes in any taxable year in which, after applying relevant look-through rules with respect to the income and assets of subsidiaries, either:

*
at least 75% of its gross income is "passive income;" or
*
on average at least 50% of the gross value of its assets is attributable to assets that produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income.

                For this purpose, passive income includes, among other things, dividends, interest, rents, royalties, gains from the disposition of passive assets and gains from commodities transactions, other than gains derived from "qualified active sales" of commodities and "qualified hedging transactions" involving commodities, within the meaning of applicable Treasury Regulations. Based on certain estimates of the gross income and gross assets of Homeland Precious Metals Corp., Homeland Precious Metals Corp. does not believe that it currently is a PFIC, nor does Homeland Precious Metals Corp. anticipate becoming a PFIC in the foreseeable future.  However, since PFIC status will be determined by Homeland Precious Metals Corp. on an annual basis and PFIC status depends upon the composition of Homeland Precious Metals Corp.'s income and assets (including, among others, less than 25% owned equity investments), and the nature of its activities, from time to time, there can be no assurance that Homeland Precious Metals Corp. will not be considered a PFIC for any taxable year.  We are unable to obtain an opinion of counsel at this time regarding PFIC status because the opinion of counsel is dependent upon the existing facts at the time the opinion is obtained.   Further, no ruling will be sought from the Internal Revenue Service, regarding the characterization of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. as a PFIC for United States federal income tax purposes.

If Homeland Precious Metals Corp. is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held common shares, some adverse consequences could apply to the U.S. Holder (see discussion below). For this reason, if Homeland Precious Metals Corp. is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, a U.S. Holder may desire to make an election to treat Homeland Precious Metals Corp. as a "qualified electing fund" (a "QEF") with respect to the electing U.S. Holder.  A QEF election should be made on or before the due date for filing the electing U.S. Holder's United States federal income tax return for the first taxable year in which the common shares are held by the U.S. Holder and Homeland Precious Metals Corp. is treated as a PFIC.


 
43

 

If a timely QEF election is made, whether or not distributed by Homeland Precious Metals Corp., the electing U.S. Holder will be required to annually include in gross income (a) as ordinary income, a pro-rata share of the ordinary earnings of Homeland Precious Metals Corp., and (b) as long-term capital gain, a pro-rata share of the net capital gain of Homeland Precious Metals Corp.. An electing corporate U.S. Holder will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction with respect to the income or gain included in gross income under this rule. In addition, in the event that Homeland Precious Metals Corp. incurs a net loss for a taxable year, the loss will not be available as a deduction to an electing U.S. Holder, and may not be carried forward or back in computing the ordinary earnings and net capital gain of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. in other taxable years. In some cases in which a QEF does not distribute all of its earnings in a taxable year, electing U.S. Holders may be permitted to elect to defer the payment of some or all of their United States federal income taxes on the QEF's undistributed earnings, subject to an interest charge on the deferred tax amount.

If Homeland Precious Metals Corp. is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. Holder held common shares, Homeland Precious Metals Corp. will provide to a U.S. Holder, upon written request, all information and documentation that the U.S. Holder is required to obtain in connection with making a QEF election for United States federal income tax purposes.

A U.S. Holder fails to make a timely QEF election (or mark-to-market election, see discussion below) for any taxable year that Homeland Precious Metals Corp. is treated as a PFIC, the United States federal income tax consequences to the U.S. Holder will be determined under the so-called "interest charge" method.  Under the interest charge regime:

*
any gain derived from the disposition of PFIC stock (possibly including a gift, an exchange in a corporate reorganization, or a grant as security for a loan), as well as any "excess distribution" that is received from the PFIC (i.e., a distribution that exceeds 125% of the average distributions from the shorter of the prior three years, or the U.S. Holder's holding period for the stock), will be treated as ordinary income that was earned ratably over each day in the U.S. Holder's holding period for the PFIC stock;
*
the portion of the gain or distribution that is allocable to prior taxable years, other than any year before Homeland Precious Metals Corp. became a PFIC, will be subject to United States federal income tax at the highest rate applicable to ordinary income for the relevant taxable years, regardless of the tax rate otherwise applicable to the U.S. Holder; and
*
an interest charge will be imposed on the resulting United States federal income tax liability as if such liability represented a tax deficiency for the past taxable years, other than any year before Homeland Precious Metals Corp. became a PFIC. In addition, a step-up in the tax basis of the PFIC stock may not be available upon the death of a non-corporate U.S. Holder.
 
In many cases, application of the interest charge regime will have substantially more onerous United States federal income tax consequences than would result if a timely QEF election is made by a U.S. holder. Accordingly, if Homeland Precious Metals Corp. is treated as a PFIC for any taxable year, U.S. holders are urged to carefully consider whether to make a QEF election and the consequences of not making the election.


 
44

 

As an alternative to the QEF election, a U.S. Holder of "marketable stock" in a PFIC may make a "mark-to-market" election, provided the PFIC stock is regularly traded on a "qualified exchange". Under applicable Treasury Regulations, a "qualified exchange" includes a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC or the national market system established under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Under applicable Treasury Regulations, PFIC stock traded on a qualified exchange is regularly traded on the exchange for any calendar year during which the stock is traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter. Homeland Precious Metals Corp. cannot assure U.S. Holders that the common stock will be treated as regularly traded on a qualified exchange.

If a valid mark-to-market election is made, the electing U.S. Holder  would (a) include in gross income, entirely as ordinary income, an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of the PFIC stock as of the close of the taxable year and the U.S. Holder's adjusted basis in the PFIC stock, and (b) deduct as an ordinary loss the excess, if any, of the adjusted tax basis of the PFIC stock over its fair market value at the end of the taxable year, but only to the extent of the amount previously included in income as a result of the mark-to-market election.

We will make assessments annually and notify shareholders of our determinations as to whether we are a PFIC.

Foreign Personal Holding Company

U.S. persons owning, directly or indirectly (on the last day of the corporation's taxable year), shares of a foreign corporation that is a "foreign personal holding company" ("FPHC") are required to include in their gross income a pro rata share of the FPHC's "foreign personal holding company income" that has not been distributed by the corporation to its shareholders during its taxable year. A foreign corporation will constitute a FPHC if more than 50% of its stock (by vote or value) is owned (directly or indirectly) by five or fewer individuals who are U.S. citizens or residents and at least 60% (50% in certain years following the year in which the corporation becomes a FPHC) of its gross income consists of "foreign personal holding company income." "Foreign personal holding company income" includes interest, dividends, royalties, certain rents, and gain from the sale of stock or securities. Based upon the expected size and distribution of common shares in the offering and among current holders, Homeland Precious Metals Corp. does not expect to meet the FPHC stock ownership test immediately after the offering and, therefore, will not be a FPHC at such time. Homeland Precious Metals Corp. does not expect to meet the income test immediately after the offering and, therefore, will not qualify as a FPHC based upon our income. However, future changes of ownership and income could cause Homeland Precious Metals Corp. to become a FPHC.

We will make assessments annually and notify shareholders of our determinations as to whether we are a FPHC.

CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion is our counsel's opinion of material Canadian federal income tax considerations applicable to the holders of common shares acquired pursuant to this offering who at all relevant times hold such common shares as capital property, deal at arm's length with Homeland Precious Metals Corp., and are not affiliated with Homeland Precious Metals Corp., all within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the "Canadian Tax Act").  Our counsel is Conrad C. Lysiak, Attorney at Law, 601 West First Avenue, Suite 903, Spokane, Washington 99201.  The common shares will be considered to be capital property to you unless held in the course of carrying on a business, in an adventure in the nature of trade, or as "mark-to-market property" for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act.  Shareholders who will not hold their Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares as capital property should consult their own tax advisors regarding their particular circumstances, as this summary does not apply to these holders. This summary does not take into account the potential application to certain "financial institutions," as defined in the Canadian Tax Act, of the "mark-to-market" rules.  This summary is based on the current provisions of the Canadian Tax Act, the regulations thereunder, and counsel's understanding of the current published administrative practices and policies of the Canada Revenue Agency, all in effect as of the date of this document. This summary takes into account all specific proposals to amend the Canadian Tax Act or the regulations publicly announced by the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date of this document, although no assurances can be given that the proposed amendments will be enacted in the form proposed, or at all. This summary does not take into account or anticipate any other changes in law, whether by judicial, governmental or legislative action or decision, nor does it take into account provincial, territorial or foreign income tax legislation or considerations, which may differ from the Canadian federal income tax considerations described herein.

Holders Resident in Canada

The following section of this summary applies to a holder of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares who, for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and any applicable tax treaty or convention, is or is deemed to be resident in Canada at all relevant times (referred to in this summary as a "Canadian holder"). A Canadian holder whose Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares might not otherwise qualify as capital property may be entitled to obtain such qualification in certain circumstances by making an irrevocable election permitted by subsection 39(4) of the Canadian Tax Act.

Taxation of Dividends

In the case of a Canadian holder who is an individual, dividends received or deemed to be received by the holder on Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares will be included in computing the holder's income and will be subject to the gross-up and dividend tax credit rules normally applicable to taxable dividends received from taxable Canadian corporations.  Dividends received by a corporation on Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares must be included in computing the corporation's income but will be deductible in computing its taxable income.  A "private corporation" (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act) or any other corporation resident in Canada and controlled or deemed to be controlled by or for the benefit of an individual or a related group of individuals, will be liable under Part IV of the Canadian Tax Act to pay a refundable tax of 33 1/3% of dividends received or deemed to be received on Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares to the extent that such dividends are deductible in computing its taxable income.

 
46

 

Disposition of Common Shares by Residents of Canada

A disposition or deemed disposition of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares by a Canadian holder will generally result in a capital gain (or capital loss) equal to the amount by which the proceeds of disposition, net of any reasonable costs of disposition, exceed (or are less than) the adjusted cost base to the Canadian holder of such shares immediately before the disposition. Under the provisions of the Canadian Tax Act, one-half of any capital gain realized by a Canadian holder will be required to be included as a taxable capital gain in computing income for the year of disposition. One-half of any capital loss (an "allowable capital loss") realized by a Canadian holder may be deducted against taxable capital gains realized in the year of disposition. Subject to detailed rules contained in the Canadian Tax Act, any excess of allowable capital losses over taxable capital gains may be carried back up to three taxation years or forward indefinitely and deducted against net taxable capital gains of those other taxation years.

Capital gains realized by an individual or trust (other than certain specified trusts) may be subject to alternative minimum tax under the Canadian Tax Act. If the Canadian holder of common shares is a corporation, the amount of any capital loss realized on the disposition or deemed disposition of a common share may be reduced by the amount of dividends received or deemed to have been received by it on such common share to the extent and under the circumstances prescribed by the Canadian Tax Act. Similar rules may apply where a corporation is a member of a partnership or beneficiary of a trust that owns common shares or that is itself a member of a partnership or a beneficiary of a trust that owns common shares.

A Canadian-controlled private corporation (as defined in the Canadian Tax Act), may also be liable to pay a 6 2/3% refundable tax on certain investment income, including taxable capital gains. We have determined that we are not a Canadian-controlled private corporation and accordingly not liable to pay said 6 2/3% refundable tax.

Disposition of Common Shares by Non-Canadian Residents

A Non-Resident Shareholder will not be subject to tax under the Canadian Tax Act in respect of any capital gain realized on the disposition of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares.

Holders Not Resident In Canada

The following portion of the summary is applicable to Homeland Precious Metals Corp. shareholder:

*
who, at all relevant times, is neither a resident nor deemed to be a resident of Canada for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act and any applicable tax treaty or convention;
*
who does not use or hold (and will not use or hold) and is not deemed to use or hold Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares in, or in the course of, carrying on a business in Canada; and
 
*
to whom the Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares do not constitute "taxable Canadian property" for purposes of the Canadian Tax Act (referred to in this summary as a "Non-Resident Shareholder"). Special rules which are not discussed in this summary apply to a non-resident that carries on an insurance business in Canada or elsewhere.
   
*
The March 2010 Canadian budget amended the capital gains taxation rules in a way that will benefit foreign venture capitalists by excluding our shares from the definition of Taxable Canadian Property, thereby eliminating the need for section 116 clearance certificates on capital gains in these cases.

Taxation of Dividends

           Dividends on Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares paid or credited or deemed under the Canadian Tax Act to be paid or credited to a Non-Resident Shareholder will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 25%, subject to any applicable reduction in the rate of withholding in any applicable tax treaty where the holder is a resident of a country with which Canada has an income tax treaty. If the Non-Resident Shareholder is a United States resident entitled to benefits under the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention, dividends on Homeland Precious Metals Corp. common shares will be subject to Canadian withholding tax at the rate of 15%.  The purpose of the treaty is to prevent fiscal evasion and double taxation and U.S. shareholders will be entitled to the benefit thereof.

Rule 144.

In general, under Rule 144, a person, or group of persons whose shares are aggregated, that has beneficially owned any of our common shares that are restricted securities, as defined in Rule 144, for at least one year, is entitled to sell in the United States within any three-month period commencing 90 days after the date of this prospectus a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:

Rule 701.

In general under Rule 701, any of our employees, officers, directors, consultants or advisors who purchased or received shares from us before this offering under a compensatory stock or option plan or written agreement will be eligible to resell their shares in the United States in reliance on Rule 144. Non-affiliates will be able to sell their shares in the United States subject only to the manner of sale provisions of Rule 144.

ITEM 15.                      CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We conducted an evaluation (the “Evaluation”), under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (“Disclosure Controls”) as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on this Evaluation, our CEO and CFO concluded that our Disclosure Controls were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Our management, including our CEO and CFO, does not expect that our Disclosure Controls and internal controls will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of a simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management or board override of the control.


 
51

 

The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

CEO and CFO Certifications

Appearing immediately following the Signatures section of this report there are Certifications of the CEO and the CFO. The Certifications are required in accordance with Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the Section 302 Certifications). This Item of this report, which you are currently reading is the information concerning the Evaluation referred to in the Section 302 Certifications and this information should be read in conjunction with the Section 302 Certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.

Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance to our management and board of directors regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal controls over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention of overriding controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2010. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we believe that, as of March 31, 2010, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective based on those criteria.

 
52

 

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ITEM 16.

A.           AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

We do not have an audit committee financial expert.  We do not have an audit committee financial expert because we believe the cost related to retaining a financial expert at this time is prohibitive.  Further, because we have limited operations, at the present time, we believe the services of a financial expert are not warranted.

B.           CODE OF ETHICS

We have adopted a corporate code of ethics. We believe our code of ethics is reasonably designed to deter wrongdoing and promote honest and ethical conduct; provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in public reports; comply with applicable laws; ensure prompt internal reporting of code violations; and provide accountability for adherence to the code.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS


Homeland Precious Metals Corp.
(An Exploration Stage Company)

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. (An Exploration Stage Company) as of March 31, 2010, and 2009, and the related consolidated statements of operations, and cash flows for the two years ended March 31, 2010, and 2009, and the cumulative since April 28, 2003 (inception) to March 31, 2010, and the consolidated statement of stockholder’s equity since April 28, 2003 (inception) to March 31, 2010.  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 audit to obtain reasonable assurance about 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 included 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, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. (An Exploration Stage Company) as of March 31, 2010, and 2009 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the two years ended March 31, 2010, and 2009 and the cumulative since April 28, 2003 (inception) to March 31, 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred net losses since inception, and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
(Expressed in US dollars)

1.
ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
 
Nature of Business
 
Homeland Precious Metals Corp. (“Homeland” or the “Company”) is engaged in the acquisition and exploration of natural resource properties. The Company commenced operations on April 28, 2003, and on April 20, 2005 it entered into an agreement with Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc., a Nevada exploration company, which gave the Company the sole exclusive right and option to earn a 100% interest in two Nevada exploration properties known as Bell Flat, and Montgomery Pass. In May of 2005, preliminary exploration on these properties began. Effective March 31, 2009, the Company decided to relinquish its rights on the two properties due to unsatisfactory exploration results.

On February 1, 2007, the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Homeland Exploration, Inc. (“HEI”) signed an agreement with Newmont Mining Corporation (“Newmont”) for the Water Canyon property. This five-year agreement gave the Company the sole and exclusive right to earn a 100% interest in the property, with a back in right for Newmont to buy into the project. During the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company was not able to raise additional funds to carry on the exploration work on the Water Canyon property. Accordingly, the Company gave notice to Newmont Mining Corp. and terminated the agreement.
 
Organization and Basis of Presentation
 
The Company was incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada on April 28, 2003.  On March 27, 2009 the shareholders voted in favour of continuing the Company to the Province of Alberta.  On September 29th, 2009, the continuance of the Company to Alberta was completed.  These financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”) and include the accounts of Homeland and its wholly owned subsidiary, HEI.
 
Nature of Operations and Going Concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles applicable to a “going concern”, which assume that the Company will continue in operation for at least one year and will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations.

Several conditions and events cast doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a “going concern”. The Company has incurred net losses of approximately $2,804,000 for the period from April 28, 2003 (inception of exploration) to March 31, 2010 and has no source of revenues. The Company had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $2,462 as of March 31, 2010, which it believes will not be sufficient to continue current exploration activities for the next 12 months, and will require additional financing in order to finance its business activities on an on-going basis. The Company is actively pursuing alternative financing and has had discussions with various third parties, although no firm commitments have been obtained. In the interim, shareholders of the Company have committed to meeting its minimal operating expenses.

1.      ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION (continued)
 

The Company’s future capital requirements will depend on numerous factors including, but not limited to, the results from the current exploration programs on its existing properties, and the locating and acquiring interests in various other mining opportunities.

These financial statements do not reflect adjustments that would be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a “going concern”. While management believes that the actions already taken or planned, will mitigate the adverse conditions and events which raise doubt about the validity of the “going concern” assumption used in preparing these financial statements, there can be no assurance that these actions will be successful.

If the Company were unable to continue as a “going concern”, then substantial adjustments would be necessary to the carrying values of assets, the reported amounts of its liabilities, the reported expenses, and the balance sheet classifications used.
 
2.
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 

This summary of accounting policies for Homeland is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s financial statements. The accounting policies conform to US GAAP and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the financial statements.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents to the extent the funds are not being held for investment purposes.
 
Pervasiveness of Estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Foreign Currency Translation
 
The Company’s primary functional currency is the US dollar. Monetary assets and liabilities resulting from transactions with foreign suppliers and customers are translated at year-end exchange rates while income and expense accounts are translated at average rates in effect during the year. Gains and losses on translation are included in income.
 
Concentration of Credit Risk
 
The Company has no significant off-balance-sheet concentrations of credit risk such as foreign exchange contracts, options contracts or other foreign hedging arrangements. The Company had cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $2,669 and $2,462 as of March 31, 2009 and 2010, respectively, which are fully covered by federal depository insurance.

2.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 
 
Financial Instruments
 
The Company’s financial instruments, as defined under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (‘SFAS”) No. 107, “Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, include its cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Except as otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest of credit risks arising from these financial instruments. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates their carrying values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.
 
Mineral Producing Activities
 
The Company is in the exploration stage and has not yet realized any revenue from its planned operations. It is primarily engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of high grade, economical precious metal properties. Under US GAAP, exploration and prospecting costs are charged to expense as incurred, as are development costs for projects not yet determined by management to be commercially feasible. Expenditures for mine development are capitalized when the property is determined to have economically recoverable proven reserves but is not yet producing at a commercial level. Prior to commencing commercial production, revenues relating to development, net of mining costs associated with its production, are offset against mine development costs. Mine development costs incurred to access reserves on producing mines are also capitalized. Capitalization of all exploration, development, and acquisition costs commences once the Company identifies proven and probable reserves that relate to specific properties.

The mining property is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. If estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the mining project and its eventual disposition are less than the carrying amount of the mining property, an impairment is recognized based upon the estimated fair value of the mining property. Fair value generally is based on the present vale of estimated future net cash flows for the mining property, calculated using estimates of proven and probable mining reserves, future prices, operating costs, capital requirements and reclamation costs.

The Company has no determinable proven or probable mineral property reserves at this time.
 
Loss per Share
 
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing the net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted loss per share is calculated using the treasury stock method, which assumes that all outstanding stock option grants are exercised, if dilutive, (shares issuable upon exercise of 16,700 options and 2,000 warrants as of March 31, 2010 and 2009 were antidilutive) and the assumed proceeds are used to purchase the Company’s common shares at the average market price during the year.
 
Stock-based Compensation
 
The Company has adopted the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation recommended by of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718 (formerly SFAS No. 123(R)), "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation". The Company has a stock option plan that is described more fully in note 11.

Comprehensive Income
 
The Company has adopted ASC 220 (formerly SFAS No. 130), "Reporting Comprehensive Income", which establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. The Company is disclosing this information on its Statement of Stockholders' Equity (Deficiency). Comprehensive income is comprised of net income (loss) and all changes to capital deficit except those resulting from investments by owners and distribution to owners.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. and its wholly owned subsidiary, HEI.  All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
 
Accounting Pronouncements
 
In December 2007, the FASB issued ASC 805 (formerly SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007) (“SFAS 141 (R)”)) “Business Combinations”, which replaces SFAS 141 “Business Combinations”. This Statement improves the relevance, completeness and representational faithfulness of the information provided in financial reports about the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed in a business combination. This Statement requires an acquirer to recognize the assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree at the acquisition date, measured at their fair values as of that date, with limited exceptions specified in the Statement. Under SFAS 141(R), acquisition-related costs, including restructuring costs, must be recognized separately from the acquisition and will generally be expensed as incurred. That replaces SFAS 141’s cost-allocation process, which required the cost of an acquisition to be allocated to the individual assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. SFAS 141(R) shall be applied prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual report period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The adoption of this pronouncement will affect the Company’s accounting treatment for any future business combinations.

In May 2008, the FASB issued ASC 105-10 (formerly Statement No. 162) — “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“SFAS No. 162”). The new standard is intended to improve financial reporting by identifying a consistent framework, or hierarchy, for selecting accounting principles to be used in preparing financial statements that are presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP for nongovernmental entities. SFAS No. 162 will be effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The adoption of SFAS No. 162 did not impact the company’s financial statements.

2.      SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
 

ASC 855-10 (formerly SFAS No. 165), "Subsequent Events" ("SFAS 165"), establishes general standards of accounting for and disclosure of events that occur after the balance sheet date, but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued.  SFAS 165 establishes (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity should evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements; (2) the circumstances under which an entity should recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements; and (3) the disclosures that an entity should make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date.  SFAS 165 is effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009.  The adoption of SFAS 165 did not have a material impact on the financial statements.  The Company has evaluated subsequent events through the filing date of these financial statements.

 
3.      INCOME TAXES
 

The Company is a Canadian corporation and thus pays Canadian income taxes. As of March 31, 2010, the Company had a net operating loss carryforward for income tax reporting purposes of approximately $1,184,268 that may be offset against future taxable income through 2029. Current tax laws limit the amount of loss available to be offset against future taxable income when a substantial change in ownership occurs. Therefore, the amount available to offset future taxable income may be limited. No tax benefit has been reported in the financial statements, because the Company believes there is a 50% or greater chance the carryforwards will expire unused. Accordingly, the potential tax benefits of the loss carryforwards are offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount.

The provision for income taxes differ from the amount computed using the federal Canadian statutory income tax rate as follows:

   
2010
   
2009
 
Loss before income taxes
  $ (66,742 )   $ (28,560 )
Tax rate

3.      INCOME TAXES (continued)
 

The significant components of the Company's future income tax assets and liabilities are as follows:

   
2010
   
2009
 
Deferred income tax assets relating to:
           
Non-capital loss carryforwards
  $ 296,100     $ 228,100

Valuation allowance
    (296,100 )     (228,100 )
Net deferred tax asset (liability)
  $ -     $ -  

The Company evaluates its valuation allowance requirements based on projected future operations. When circumstances change and causes a change in management’s judgment about the recoverability of deferred tax assets, the impact of the change on the valuation ($68,000) is reflected in current income.

 
4.
UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS
 

Effective April 1, 2007, the company adopted the provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”). FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more-likely-than-not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The adoption of the provisions of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. At April 1, 2008, the company had no liability for unrecognized tax benefits and no accrual for the payment of related interest and penalties. The Company did not record a cumulative effect adjustment relating to the adoption of FIN 48.

Interest costs related to unrecognized tax benefits are classified as “Interest expense, net” in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Penalties, if any, would be recognized as a component of “Selling, general and administrative expenses”. The Company recognized $nil of interest and penalties expense related to unrecognized tax benefits during 2009 and 2008. In many cases the company’s uncertain tax positions are related to tax years that remain subject to examination by relevant tax authorities. With few exceptions, the company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2006. The following describes the open tax years, by major tax jurisdiction, as of March 31, 2010:

EXPLORATION STAGE COMPANY/GOING CONCERN
 

The Company has begun principal operations but, as is common with an exploration stage company, the Company has had recurring losses. Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining the additional working capital necessary to be successful in its planned activity, and the management of the Company has developed a strategy, which it believes will accomplish this objective through additional equity funding and long term financing, which will enable the Company to operate for the coming year.
 
6.
ESTIMATED ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION
 

The Company has adopted ASC 410 (formerly Statement of Financials Accounting Standards No. 143), Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations ("SFAS 143"). This statement applies to obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets that result from the acquisition, construction and development of the assets.

SFAS 143 requires that the fair value of a liability for a retirement obligation be recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. The Company had a bond of $5,750 as of March 31, 2008. In addition a liability of $5,750 was booked as of March 31, 2006. During the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company completed $3,869 of environmental remediation work and reduced its liability to $2,111.
 
7.
MINERAL PROPERTIES
 

On April 20, 2005, the Company entered into an agreement with Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc., which gave the Company the exclusive right and option to earn a 100% interest in two Nevada exploration properties known as Bell Flat, and Montgomery Pass. Having signed an agreement for these properties, the Company must conduct exploration to determine what amount of minerals, if any, exist on its properties and if any minerals that are found can be economically extracted and profitably processed.

The Bell Flat and Montgomery Pass properties were acquired by means of an option agreement whereby the Company pay an annual fee and work expenditures on both properties (collectively). On March 30, 2007, Desert Pacific Explorations, Inc. amended the terms of the aforementioned agreement whereby the Company pay an annual fee and work expenditures on both properties (collectively), over a five-year term as follows:

As of March 31, 2008, expenditures in the amount of $264,979 had been paid collectively on both properties.

Effective March 31, 2009, the Company decided to relinquish its rights on the two properties and absolved itself of any further obligations.

MINERAL PROPERTIES (continued)
 
On February 1, 2007, HEI, a wholly owned Nevada registered subsidiary of Homeland Precious Metals Corp. signed a definitive agreement with Newmont Mining Corp., a mining company doing business in Nevada. The agreement was a five-year lease of the Water Canyon property. Subject to HEI’s right to terminate the agreement pursuant to Section 11 of the agreement, HEI was to make expenditures (defined below) in the total amount of $2,700,000 in accordance with the following schedule:

Due Date
 
Expenditure Amount
 
On or before February 1, 2008
  $ 150,000  
On or before February 1, 2009

On or before February 1, 2011
    1,700,000  
On or before February 1, 2012
  $ 2,700,000  
         

As of March 31, 2009, the Company paid $342,515 in expenditures and accordingly had not met its obligations under the agreement with Newmont Mining Corp. During the year ended March 31, 2009, the Company was not able to raise additional funds to carry on the exploration work on the Water Canyon property. Accordingly, the Company gave notice to Newmont to terminate the definitive agreement.
 
8.
SHAREHOLDER LOAN
 

In April 2008, the Company entered into an agreement for a loan from a shareholder in the amount of $10,000. The note is due within 10 days written notice.  There are no terms of interest on the loan.  On September 9, 2009, the Company settled with the shareholder regarding the above- mentioned loan of $10,000.  In lieu of a cash re-payment, the shareholder instead accepted 1,000,000 shares of restricted common stock, with a market value of $0.05 per share or $50,000, of the Company as re-payment.  The company recorded interest expense on this transaction in the amount of $40,000.  In October 2009, the Company entered into additional agreements for loans from a shareholder in the amount of $15,906.  The note is due within 10 days written notice.  There are no terms of interest on the loan.
 
9.
COMMON STOCK
 

The Company was incorporated to allow for the issuance of up to 300,000,000 shares of no par value common stock.

On April 28, 2003 (inception), the Company issued 3 shares of common stock to its president.

On April 30, 2003, the Company issued 45,000 shares of common stock to its president for $1,140 ($1,500 Canadian). The shares were valued at $0.1 per share.

On May 9, 2003, the Company issued 90,375 shares of common stock to various people for $75,386. The shares were valued at $2.50 per share.

On December 23, 2004, all of the shareholders of the Company voted unanimously to approve a three for one forward stock split, and with this authorization the Company increased its authorized common shares to 300,000,000. As a result of this action, the total number of outstanding shares was increased from 45,126 to 135,394 (includes 16 rounding shares). All references to common stock in the financial statements have been changed to reflect the stock split.

On March 29, 2006, the Company completed a private placement with a single person whereby it raised $250,000 by the sale of 2,000 units at a price of $125.00 per unit. Each unit consists of one share of common stock of the Company; one Class A warrant, exercisable from March 29, 2007 to March 29, 2012, to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $150.00 per Share; and one Class B warrant exercisable from March 29, 2008 to March 29, 2012 to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $175.00 per share of common stock.
