Eurocan Holdings Ltd. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 11, 2004. Effective September 1, 2006, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Michael Williams Web Design Inc. (“MWWD”); a private US based company, in exchange for 7,500,000 shares of common stock of the Company. MWWD was incorporated in the State of New York on February 26, 2004 and was owned by the President of the Company.

 

The acquisition resulted in the sole shareholder of MWWD having voting and operating control of the combined company, and, prior to the acquisition, the Company was a non-operating shell corporation with nominal net assets. The acquisition was considered a capital transaction in substance and therefore has been accounted for as a recapitalization. Under recapitalization accounting MWWD is considered the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes, and acquired the assets and assumed the liabilities of the Company. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are reported at their historical amounts. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company since the effective date of the recapitalization being September 1, 2006 and the historical accounts of the business of MWWD since inception being February 26, 2004.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business.
