Foreign Private Issuer Status

Foreign Private Issuer Status:

Reg Technologies, Inc., (hereinafter referred to as the "Company”, or “we”, “it”, “our” or such other context as may be applicable), is a Canadian corporation incorporated under the laws of the Province of British Columbia. Less than 50% of our common stock is held by United States citizens and residents, our business is administered principally outside the United States; and more than 50% of our assets are located outside the United States. As a result, we believe that we qualify as a "foreign private issuer" for continuing to report regarding the registration of our common stock using this Form 20-F annual report format.

PART I

ITEM 1.        IDENTITY OF DIRECTORS, SENIOR MANAGEMENT AND ADVISORS

This Form 20-F is being filed as an annual report under the Exchange Act, and accordingly, the information called for in Item 1 is not required. Please see “Item 6 – Directors, Senior Management and Employees – Directors and Senior Management”.

ITEM 2.        OFFER AND STATISTICS AND EXPECTED TIMETABLE

This Form 20-F is being filed as an annual report under the Exchange Act, and accordingly, the information called for in Item 2 is not required.

ITEM 3.        KEY INFORMATION

A.        SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA

The summary consolidated financial information set forth below should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the Consolidated Financial Statements, as of and for the years ended April 30, 2003 and 2002, together with the notes thereto, which appear elsewhere in this annual report. The Consolidated Financial Statements as of and for the years ended April 30, 2003 and 2002 have been audited by Manning Elliott. The Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. See Note 11 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP.

The selected financial data set forth in the following table is expressed in Canadian dollars. Since June 1, 1970, the Government of Canada has permitted a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the United States dollar. At April 30, 2003, US$1.00 was equal to approximately C$1.4335. The exchange rates for the past five fiscal years ended April 30, are presented in the introduction to this registration statement.

The following represents our selected financial data for each of the past five fiscal years, ending on April 30. The data presented is prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and expressed in Canadian dollars:

D.        RISK FACTORS

The occurrence of any of the following risks could hurt our business, financial condition or results of operations. In such case, the trading price of our shares could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. You should carefully consider the following risks and the other information in this Report and our other filings with the SEC before you decide to invest in us or to maintain or increase your investment. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not now known to us or that we think are immaterial may also adversely impact and impair our business. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, results of operations, or financial condition would likely suffer. In such case, the trading price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Development Stage Enterprise. We are a development stage enterprise and is subject to all of the attendant business risks associated with a development stage enterprise, including constraints on financial and personnel resources, lack of established credit facilities, and uncertainties regarding product development and future revenues. We will continue to be subject to all the risks attendant to a development stage enterprise for the foreseeable future, including competition, complications and setbacks in the development program, and the need for additional capital.

We have reported losses in each year since its inception. At April 30, 2003, we had an accumulated deficit of ($11,373,004) in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our history consists almost entirely of development of its products funded entirely from the sale of our Common Stock in the absence of revenues. We anticipate that it will continue to incur substantial additional operating losses for at least the next 12 months and expects cumulative losses to increase as our development efforts expand.

Although we anticipate receiving future revenues from the sales of engines or the licensing of our technology or pursuant to a joint venture, we have received minimal revenues in preparation for licensing or joint venture activities, and there are no assurances that significant revenues will be derived from this activity in the future. We have received no revenues from sales of any of the products under development. There can be no assurance as to when or if we will be able to develop significant sources of revenue or whether our operations will become profitable, even if we are able to commercialize any product. See "Operating and Financial Review and Prospects," and Notes to Financial Statements.

Ability to develop product. We have no assurance at this time that a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable. Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will be accepted by end users. The RC/DC Engine which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other engines that competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate its potential markets. If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that we or potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine.

- 6 -


Additional Financing will be Required. Our expectations as to the amount of funds needed for development and the timing of the need for these funds is based on our current operating plan, which can change as a result of many factors, and we could require additional funding sooner than anticipated. Our cash needs may vary materially from those now planned because of results of development or changes in the focus and direction of our development program, competitive and technological advances, results of laboratory and field testing, requirements of regulatory agencies and other factors.

We have no credit facility or other committed sources of capital. To the extent capital resources are insufficient to meet future capital requirements, we will have to raise additional funds to continue our development and operations. There can be no assurance that such funds will be available on favorable terms, or at all. To the extent that additional capital is raised through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. If adequate funds are not available, we may be required to curtail operations significantly or to obtain funds on unattractive terms. Our inability to raise capital would have a material adverse effect on us.

Significant Losses for the Foreseeable Future. We expect to incur significant losses for the foreseeable future and cannot be certain when or if we will achieve profitability. Failure to become and remain profitable will adversely affect the value of our Common Shares and our ability to raise capital and continue operations.

Product/Market Acceptance. Our profitability and survival will depend upon our ability to develop a technically and commercially feasible product which will be accepted by end users. The RC/DC Engine and the AVFCS which we are developing must be technologically superior or at least equal to other engines which our competitors offer and must have a competitive price/performance ratio to adequately penetrate our potential markets. A number of rotary engines have been designed over the past 70 years but only one, the Wankel, has been able to achieve mechanical practicality and any significant market acceptance. If we are not able to achieve this condition or if we do not remain technologically competitive, we may be unprofitable and our investors could lose their entire investment. There can be no assurance that we or our potential licensees will be able to achieve and maintain end user acceptance of our engine or the AFVCS.

No Formal Market Survey. We have not conducted a formal market survey but statistics available on the aircraft, marine and industrial markets alone indicate an annual market potential of more than one hundred million dollars.

Lack Of Experience To Manufacture Or Market Product. Assuming we are successful in developing the Rand Cam products, we presently have no proven ability either to manufacture or market the engine. There is no assurance that we will be able to profitably manufacture and market engines.

Going Concern Disclosure In Independent Auditor's Report. The report of our independent auditors with respect to our financial statements included in this Form 20-F includes a "going concern" qualification, indicating that our losses and deficits in working capital and shareholders' equity raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. See " Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” and Notes to Financial Statements.

Our Dependence on Skilled Personnel. We are dependent on certain members of our management and engineering staff, the loss of services of one or more of whom could adversely affect our business. In particular, we depend on the abilities and continued participation of Pat Badgley and other key personnel who have been instrumental in bringing the Rand Cam engine to its present state of development. The loss of any of these key individuals could hamper the successful development of the engine. Our present officers and directors have other full-time positions or part-time employment unrelated to our business. Some officers and directors will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only. Our management may devote time to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us. We do not have "key man" life insurance on such officers and currently have no plans to obtain such insurance. See "Management". Our success also depends on our ability to attract and retain additional skilled employees.

- 7 -


Dependence on Consultants and Outside Manufacturing Facilities. Since our present plans do not provide for a significant technical staff or the establishment of manufacturing facilities, we will be primarily dependent on others to perform these functions and to provide the requisite expertise and quality control. There is no assurance that such persons or institutions will be available when needed at affordable prices. It will likely cost more to have independent companies do research and manufacturing than for us to handle these resources.

Protection of Intellectual Property. Our business depends on the protection of our intellectual property and may suffer if we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property. The success of our business depends on our ability to patent our engine. Currently, we have been granted several U.S. Patents. We cannot provide assurance that our patents will not be invalidated, circumvented or challenged, that the rights granted under the patents will give us competitive advantages or that our patent applications will be granted.

Product Errors. Engines such as the ones proposed by us and our related planned applications may contain errors or defects, especially when first introduced, or when new versions are released. Our products may not be free from errors after commercial release has occurred. Any errors that are discovered after such commercial release could result in loss of revenue or delay in market acceptance, diversion of development resources, damage to our reputation, increased service and warranty costs and liability claims. Any defects in these products could adversely affect the operation of and market for our products, reduce revenue, increase costs and damage our reputation.

Competition. While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position. These companies possess greater technical resources and market recognition than us, and have management, financial and other resources not yet available to us. Existing engines are likely to be perceived by many customers as superior or more reliable than any new product until it has been in the marketplace for a period of time. There is no assurance that we will be able to compete effectively with these companies.

Market prices for our products may decline in the future. We anticipate that market prices for our main products may decline in the future due to increased competition. We expect significant competition among local and international companies, including from new entrants, may continue to drive equipment prices lower. We also expect that there may be increases in promotional spending by companies in our industry which would also contribute to increasing movement of customers between competitors. Such increased competition and the resulting decline of market prices for our products would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Rapid technological change. New technology or refinement of existing technology could render our Rand Cam products less attractive or obsolete. Our success depends in part upon its ability to anticipate changes in technology and industry standards and to successfully develop and introduce new and improved engines on a timely basis. There is no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Timing of new product introductions and lack of market acceptance for our new products. Our future success may be dependent on the success of our products and services. The success of our business depends on a variety of factors, including:

  • the quality and reliability of our products and services;
  • our ability to develop new products and services superior to that of our competitors;
  • our ability to establish licensing relationships and other strategic alliances;
  • our pricing policies and the pricing policies of our competitors;
  • our ability to introduce new products and services before our competitors;
  • our ability to successfully advertise our products and services; and
  • general economic trends.

Volatility of The Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (“OTC BB”) or the TSX Venture Exchange may adversely affect the price of the Common Stock. Certain stocks listed on the OTC BB and/or the TSX Venture Exchange have recently experienced significant price and volume fluctuations and decreases which have adversely affected the market price of our and other stocks listed on the OTC BB and/or the TSX Venture Exchange without any regard to the underlying fundamentals of such stocks. These broad market fluctuations, which may occur in the future, as well as issues more specifically related to our business activities or prospects, our financial performance, intellectual property, may continue to adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock.

Product liability. Product liability claims asserted against us in the future could hurt our business. If a customer suffers damage from our products, the customer could sue us on product liability or related grounds, claim damages for data loss or make other claims. We currently do not carry product liability insurance. While we have not been sued on product liability grounds to date, a successful product liability or related claim brought against us could harm our business.

We do not expect to pay cash dividends. We intend to retain any future earnings to finance our business and operations and any future growth. Therefore, we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Potential lack of attractive investment targets. Continued volatility of stock prices on the OTC BB and the TSX Venture Exchange may have a material adverse effect on our ability to raise capital on the OTC BB or the TSX Venture Exchange or by private investment, and the price of our common stock could fluctuate substantially.

Other Factors. Our areas of business may be affected from time to time by such matters as changes in general economic conditions, changes in laws and regulations, taxes, tax laws, prices and costs, and other factors of a general nature which may have an adverse effect on our business.

Conflict of Interest. Some of our current officers and directors have other unrelated full-time positions or part-time employment. Some officers and directors will be available to participate in management decisions on a part-time or as-needed basis only. Our management may devote its time to other companies or projects which may compete directly or indirectly with us.

ITEM 4.        INFORMATION ON THE COMPANY

A.        HISTORY AND DEVELOPMENT

We were originally incorporated on October 6, 1982 as Reg Resources Corp. under a perpetual charter pursuant to the British Columbia Company Act by registration of our Memorandum and Articles. On February 23, 1993 we changed our name to Reg Technologies Inc. in order to better reflect our main area of business development. We did not consolidate our shares at the time our name was changed.

Our authorized capital consists of 45,000,000 shares consisting of 30,000,000 common shares without par value, 10,000,000 preferred shares with a par value of $1.00 per share and 5,000,000 class "A" non-voting shares without par value. Of the 30,000,000 common shares without par value, 17,078,371 shares were issued and outstanding as of April 30, 2003 and 21,035,181 are outstanding as at the date of this 20-F. There are no Preferred or Class "A" Shares currently outstanding. All the Issuer's outstanding shares are Common Shares. They are not subject to any future call or assessment and they all have equal voting rights. There are no special rights or restrictions of any nature attached to any of the shares and they all rank equally, as to all benefits that might accrue to the holder thereof.

Our head office is located at #1103 -11871 Horseshoe Way, Richmond, B.C., V7A 5H5, Canada. Our telephone number is 604-278-5996 and our fax number is 604-278-3409.

We made our initial public offering of 500,000 Common Shares in July 1983 at a price of $0.50 per share to residents of British Columbia. Following the completion of that offering, our shares were listed on the Vancouver Stock Exchange (which is now the TSX Venture Exchange, previously the Canadian Venture Exchange).

We were initially involved in the mineral development and oil and gas business. The mineral development business produced no revenues from operations and the oil and gas business produced only limited revenues.

On May 23, 1986 we entered an agreement which was amended October 20, 1986 ("Initial Agreements") among ourself, Rand Cam-Engine Corp (a private company owned by James L. McCann, the inventor of the Rand Cam Engine) and James L. McCann. Under this agreement we acquired a 40% interest in a company to be formed, by paying $50,000 and agreeing to expend $200,000 on research and development pertaining to the Rand Cam Engine, which utilizes a new type of design for a rotary internal combustion engine.

The company to be formed referred to above was incorporated in November 1989, by registration of its Memorandum and Articles pursuant to the British Columbia Company Act as Rand Energy Group Inc. (REGI), which company would hold all the rights, agreements and patents to the Rand Cam Engine. We acquired 1,200,000 of the issued and outstanding shares of REGI while Rand Cam-Engine Corp. acquired 1,800,000 of the issued and outstanding shares.

The Initial Agreements were superseded by an "Energy Group Acquisition Agreement" dated March 28, 1990 and a "Share Purchase Agreement" dated March 28, 1990 whereby James L. McCann and Rand Cam- Engine Corp. agreed to transfer all rights, title and interest in and to the Rand Cam Engine to REGI for 1,800,000 common shares of REGI in consideration for certain covenants and warranties along with the $250,000 expended in accordance with the Initial Agreements. We were allotted 1,200,000 common shares of REGI.

These agreements resulted in us owning 40% of the issued and outstanding shares of Rand Technologies Inc., with the balance of 60% being owned by Rand Cam-Engine Corp. Pursuant to an amalgamation agreement between the shareholders of Rand Technologies Inc. and REGI, the two companies were amalgamated effective July 31, 1993. The amalgamated company is called Rand Energy Group Inc. and retains the same ownership structure.

Under an agreement dated April 27, 1993, between ourself, REGI, Rand Cam-Engine Corporation and James L. McCann (the "Agreement"), Rand Cam-Engine Corporation agreed to sell to us 330,000 shares of REGI, representing a further 11% interest in REGI. In consideration for a controlling interest in REGI, we agreed to pay Rand Cam-Engine Corporation $50,000, issue 600,000 shares of our Common Stock (the "Purchase Price") and grant a participating royalty to a maximum amount of $10,000,000, ("Participating Royalty"). On July 14, commencing in 1995 and for each consecutive year thereafter, the Participating Royalty is to be paid in the form of instalments by us. A minimum of $50,000 per year must be paid by us to the Rand Cam-Engine Corporation. As part of the minimum payment, we are to pay to Rand Cam-Engine Corporation, 5% of any after-tax net profits receive by us from REGI.

Pursuant to the Agreement, we were and are to distribute the 600,000 Common Shares to Rand Cam-Engine Corporation as follows: (a) 100,000 shares upon receiving regulatory approval; (b) a further 100,000 shares within five days of receiving written approval of the then Vancouver Stock Exchange following the successful testing of the Alpha version of the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Engine, and an independent engineer's report recommending further expenditures be made. Regulatory approval was received on April 11, 1995 and the shares were issued April 20, 1995 at $1.69 per share;

(c) a further 150,000 shares within five days after the latter of: receipt of written approval of the Vancouver Stock Exchange of an independent assessment report confirming that the Beta version of the RC/DC Engine has commercial or military applications; July 17, 1993; or the date the shares issued in (b) above;

(d) a final 250,000 shares within five days after written approval from the Vancouver Stock Exchange


- 10 -


following the latter of: the signing of a contract to build and sell the RC/DC Engine or the execution of a License Agreement with an independent company; July 17, 1994; or the date the shares are issued in (c) above.

Under the terms of the Agreement, if any of the 600,000 shares to be issued as set out above remain unissued after ten years from the date of the Agreement, these shares will not be issued and we shall be relieved of any further obligations in respect to the issuance of these shares.

Pursuant to an agreement with Brian Cherry ("Cherry Agreement") dated July 30, 1992 , REGI was assigned all rights, title and interest in the Direct Charge Rotary Engine for all countries excluding the United States of America. Also under the Cherry Agreement, Sky Technologies Inc. (now called REGI U.S., Inc.) was assigned from Brian Cherry all right, title and interest in and to the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Rotary Engine for the United States.

REGI U.S., INC.

REGI U.S., Inc. ("REGI U.S.") is 28.5% owned U.S. subsidiary of Rand Energy Group Inc. which is in turn controlled through 51% ownership by us. REGI U.S. was organized under the laws of the State of Oregon on July 27, 1992 as Sky Technologies, Inc. with its name changed on August 1, 1994. It has a total authorized capital of 20,000,000 common shares. As of April 30, 2003, a total of 17,687,935 shares were issued of which 5,043,200 are owned by Rand Energy Group Inc. In 1993 Sky completed an offering of 500,000 units consisting of one share of the Common Stock with no par value and one Warrant to purchase one share of Sky. Each Warrant entitled the holder to purchase one share of Sky at $1.25 until August 24, 1994 and then at a price of $1.50 during the following 12 month period, or extension thereof.

Pursuant to an agreement dated July 30, 1992 and amendments thereto between Brian Cherry, Sky and ourself (the "Cherry Agreement"), we acquired and then assigned to Sky the U.S. technology rights to the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Rotary Engine (the "Rand Cam/Direct Charge Rotary Engine") from Brian Cherry. REGI will retain a 5% interest in the net profits from the United States rights. In consideration, Mr. Cherry received, subject to regulatory approval, 100,000 shares of the Company, and a 1% net profits interest in REGI U.S. Brian Cherry purchased 300,000 shares of Sky/REGI at US $0.01.

Our stock currently trades on the OTC BB under the symbol REGRF and on the TSX Venture Exchange as RRE.

B.        BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Nature of the Company’s Operations

We are engaged in the business of developing and building an improved axial vane-type rotary engine known as the Rand CamTM Direct Charge (“RC/DC”) Engine, which is a variation of the Original Engine. The Original Engine is an axial vane rotary engine, the worldwide marketing rights to which are held by RAND. A United States patent was issued for the RC/DC Engine on July 4, 1995, and assigned to us. Since no marketable product has yet been developed, we have not received any revenues from operations.

The RC/DC Engine is based upon the Original Engine patented in 1983. Brian Cherry, a former officer and director of the Company, has done additional development work on the Original Engine that resulted in significant changes and improvements for which the U.S. patent has been issued and assigned to us. We believe the RC/DC Engine offers important simplification from the basic Original Engine, which will make it easier to manufacture and will also allow it to operate more efficiently.

Based upon testing work performed by independent organizations on prototype models, we believe that the RC/DC Engine holds significant potential in a number of other applications ranging from small stationary equipment to automobiles and aircraft. In additional to its potential use as an internal combustion engine, the RC/DC Engine design is being employed in the development of several types of compressors, pumps, expanders and other applications.


- 11 -


To date, several prototypes of the RC/DC Engine have been tested and additional development and testing work is continuing. We believe that such development and testing will continue until a commercially feasible design is perfected. There is no assurance at this time, however, that such a commercially feasible design will ever be perfected, or if it is, that it will become profitable. If a commercially feasible design is perfected, we do, however, expect to derive revenues from licensing the Technology relating to the RC/DC Engine regardless of whether actual commercial production is ever achieved. There is no assurance at this time, however, that revenues will ever be received from licensing the Technology even if it does prove to be commercially feasible.

We believe that a large market would exist for a practical rotary engine which could be produced at a competitive price and which could provide a good combination of fuel efficiency, power density and exhaust emissions.

Based on the market potential, we believe the RC\DC Engine is well suited for application to internal combustion engines, pumps, compressors and expansion engines. The mechanism can be scaled to match virtually any size requirement. This flexibility opens the door to large markets being developed.

We have built prototypes for these products including air pumps for fuel cell applications and air conditioning compressors. Our strategy is to develop engines and compressors for low to medium horsepower applications, then apply the Technology to larger applications. We plan to license the Technology or enter into joint venture arrangements for other specific applications. The licensee or joint venture partners will then provide funding for research and development of the specific applications. To date, we have, through our subsidiary REGI US, completed three license agreements with Advanced Ceramics for 10 H.P. or less for remote piloted vehicles, a license agreement with Radian MILPARTS for greater than 10 H.P. for military applications and to Rotary Power International for Generator applications. The agreement with Advanced Ceramics has terminated due to Phase II funding not being completed. A previous agreement with Trans Air to test an air conditioning Rand Cam™ compressor is still pending.

PRODUCTS AND PROJECTS

Rand Cam Technology

Rand Cam Cold Turbine Engine

On May 7, 2003 we announced that Rotary Power International has been granted a license agreement for the power generator applications. On June 9, 2003 we announced that the license had been extended to December 31, 2003.

Gasoline and Diesel Engine

Two prototype engines were built in 1993 and 1994 by the WVURC to run on gasoline. Testing on these prototypes suggested that the concept is fundamentally sound and that with a program of engine review, design, testing and development, a technically successful range of engines can be developed. The current prototype design for the diesel engine was designed by a consortium made up of Alliant Techsystems (formerly Hercules Aerospace Company) ("Alliant"), WVURC and us. Alliant was involved in the design and development including drawings for the RC/DC diesel engine. In addition Alliant performed extensive analysis on the diesel engine including bearings, cooling, leakage, rotor, vanes, housing, vane tip heating, geometry and combustion. This engine was designed as a general purpose power plant for military and commercial applications. A prototype of the diesel engine has been assembled and tested.

The design phase of the 42 Horsepower Diesel Engine for unmanned vehicle applications for helicopters is complete and fabrication of the engine has commenced. Planning for the test facility and test plan is also underway.

Compressor

We contracted Coltec, Inc., a Columbus, Indiana engineering firm, to fabricate the Rand Cam (TM) air conditioning compressor for buses. The testing is to be conducted by Trans/Air Manufacturing Corporation, one of the largest manufacturers of air conditioning units for buses, which has agreed to jointly develop and manufacture the working model compressor. The prototype compressor was delivered to Trans/Air in January 2001 and is presently awaiting testing in a bus.

A special 3.2 SCFM air compressor has been designed and built for a large fuel cell customer. The customer has reviewed the design and his comments including type of drive motor, inlet and outlet piping arrangements and mounting considerations were incorporated and final drawings were prepared.

On November 13, 2002 we announced that Trans/Air had notified us that testing of our special Rand Cam™ air conditioning compressor was delayed due to lack of personnel. Trans/Air promised to have the necessary people available for testing this year.

Hydrogen Separator

We purchased the rights to the H2O Hydrogen Separator Technology consisting of a hydrogen separator based, which is a unique system for extracting hydrogen from water.

In consideration for a 50% interest for the rights to the Hydrogen Separator Technology Reg Technologies, Inc. (“Reg”) agrees that we shall apply for a patent in the U.S. for the Hydrogen Separator Technology at Reg’s expense; and Reg agrees to build a prototype of the Hydrogen Separator Technology as designed by GHM, Inc. We declined the option to purchase an additional 50% interest. To date, neither patent confirmation nor approval has been received by Reg.

Rand CamTM Steam Expander

We are working with Blasingame on adapting the Rand Cam concept as a steam engine expander. These engines span a horsepower range from 25 to 10,000 horsepower. A proposal for a funded analysis, design, fabrication and test program has been prepared and submitted to Blasingame.

We have a license agreement with Radian Milparts to build and design a 42 horsepower diesel engine for military unmanned air applications for 90 horsepower and up. Three 42 horsepower engines have been built and testing is being completed.

Description of the Markets in Which the Company Competes

We currently face and will continue to face competition in the future from established companies engaged in the business of developing, manufacturing and marketing engines and other products. While not a highly competitive business in terms of numbers of competitors, the business of developing engines of a new design and attempting to either license or produce them is nonetheless difficult because most existing engine producers are large, well financed companies which are very concerned about maintaining their market position. Such competitors are already well established in the market and have substantially greater resources than us. Internal combustion engines are produced by automobile manufacturers, marine engine manufacturers, heavy equipment manufacturers and specialty aircraft and industrial engine manufacturers. We expect that our engine would be used mainly in industrial and marine applications.

Except for the Wankel rotary engine built by Mazda of Japan, no competitor, that we are aware of, presently produces in a commercial quantity any rotary engine similar to the engines we are developing. The Wankel rotary engine is similar only in that it is a rotary engine rather than a reciprocating piston engine. Without substantially greater financial resources than is currently available to us, however, it is very possible that it may

- 13 -


not be able to adequately compete in the engine business. One competitor, Rotary Power International, is presently producing the first production SCORE rotary (Wankel type) engines. Our RC\DC Engine is more fuel efficient, smaller, quieter, costs less to produce and will have fewer exhaust emissions.

We believe that if and when our engine is completely developed, in order to be successful in meeting or overcoming competition which currently exists or may develop in the future, our engine will need to offer superior performance and/or cost advantages over existing engines used in various applications.

Seasonality

We believe that there is no seasonality which affects the sales of our products.

Availability of Raw Materials

Since we are not in production and there are no plans at this time for us to enter the actual engine manufacturing business, raw materials are not of present concern. At this time, however, there does not appear to be any foreseeable problem with obtaining any materials or components, which may be required in the manufacture of its potential products.

Marketing Strategy

We intend to pursue the development of the RC/DC Engine and the air pump, compressor and other products by entering into licensing and/or joint venture arrangements with other larger companies, which have the financial resources to maximize the potential of the technology. At the present time, we have signed license agreements with Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc., Radian, Inc. and Rotary Power Generation, Incorporated. We have no current plans to become actively involved in either manufacturing or marketing any engine or other product which it may ultimately develop to the point of becoming a commercial product.

Our current objective is to complete and test the various compressor, pump and diesel engine prototypes. Based on the successful testing, the prototypes will be used for presentation purposes to potential license and joint venture partners.

We expect revenue from license agreements with the potential end users based on the success of the design from the compressor, pump, and diesel engine prototypes. Based on of successful testing of the Rand Cam prototypes, we expect to have joint venture or license agreements finalized, which would result in royalties to us. However, there is no assurance that the tests will be successful or that we will ever receive any such royalties.

The following marketing activities are all currently underway:

AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR - An agreement with Trans Air Manufacturers has been completed to use the Rand Cam(TM) compressor in air conditioning units in bus applications. We have delivered a compressor prototype for testing. We are awaiting test results from Trans Air.

AIR PUMP – A prototype air pump for a Fuel Cell Application has been completed and will be delivered to the Fuel Cell manufacturer and others. We plan to build several additional air pumps for demonstration purposes for other fuel cell uses.

DIESEL ENGINE – We have signed a license agreement with Radian MILPARTS to further develop our Rand Cam Technology for a 42 horsepower engine. Our license agreement with Radian calls for a 6% royalty to us and one working model 42 horsepower diesel engine for our own use for demonstration purposes for the other commercial applications.

Dependence on Certain Commercial Agreements

We do not have any material agreements upon which we are dependent.

Patents and Licenses

Patents

We have patents on the Rand Cam Engine for Canada, Mexico and the United States to protect certain aspects of the Rand Cam engine. U.S. patent 5,429,084 was granted on July 4, 1995, to James McCann, Brian Cherry, Patrick Badgley and four other individuals for various improvements incorporated in the RC/DC Engine, This patent has been assigned to us. The patent to the original Rand Cam engine, U.S. Patent 4,401,070, was issued on August 30, 1983 to James McCann and the marketing rights are held by Rand Energy.

The RC/DC Engine is composed basically of a disk shaped rotor with drive shaft, which turns, and the housing or stator, which remains stationary. The rotor has two or more vanes that are mounted perpendicular to the direction of rotation and slide back and forth through it. As the rotor turns, the ends of the vanes ride along the insides of the stator housing which have wave-like depressions, causing the vanes to slide back and forth. In the process of turning and sliding, combustion chambers are formed between the rotor, stator walls and vanes where the fuel/air mixture is injected, compressed, burned and exhausted.

Two additional patents have been issued for improvements to the engine including: U.S. Patents 5,509,793 “Rotary Device with Slidable Vane Supports) issued April 24, 1996 and 5,551,853 “Axial Vane Rotary Device and Sealing System Therefor) issued September 3, 1996.

Royalty Payments

The August 1992 Agreement calls for us to pay RAND semi-annually a royalty of 5% of any net profits to be derived by us from revenues received as a result of its license of the Original Engine. The August 1992 Agreement also calls for us to pay Brian Cherry a royalty of 1% semi-annually any net profits derived by us from revenue received as a result of our licensing the Original Engine.

Other provisions of the April 1993 Agreement call for is (a) to pay to RAND a continuing royalty of 5% of the net profits derived from the Technology by us and (b) to pay to Brian Cherry a continuing royalty of 1% of the net profits derived by us from the Technology.

Pursuant to the letter of understanding dated December 13, 1993, among us, RAND, Reg Tech and WVURC, WVURC will receive 5% of all net profits from sales, licenses, royalties or income derived from the patented technology relating to the Original Engine and the RC/DC Engine.

No royalties are to be paid to Alliant or Adiabatics, Inc.

Competition and Alternative Technologies

We believe strong competition can be expected in the engine market with new patents being taken out on a continuous basis and that we may have a time advantage over some of the competitive products as far as niche markets which we may enter, however there is no way to accurately determine or predict whether this situation is or will continue to be true.

The conventional piston type internal combustion engine is the prime competitor of the Rand Cam Engine. Due to the substantial infrastructure built up to support the standard combustion engine, substantial barriers to entry exist into this market.

- 15 -


A number of the new engine designs over the last decade have offered advantages on the thermodynamics front (e.g. more efficient use of energy through better combustion, better heat transfer, etc.). In the case of the Rand Cam Engine, its strong point it believed to be in its mechanism, not in its thermodynamics. Whether or not the engine's mechanism alone will provide the competitive edge necessary to result in a marketable and successful product is unknown at this time.

Since we do not have management experience in manufacturing engines, it hopes to be able to follow the same strategy as that of other companies such as Orbital and Wankel, where it would be licensing its technology and would therefore not be directly engaged in manufacturing.

An extensive manufacturing study has not been performed to date and it could turn out that the costs to manufacture are prohibitive for one or more reasons. However, the computer modelling done can be utilized to generate manufacturing drawings which could be used to obtain preliminary costing estimates.

The development of our business and its ability to maintain its competitive and technical position has depended and will depend, in part, upon its ability to attract and retain qualified scientific, engineering, managerial and manufacturing personnel.

Significant competition exists from engine manufacturers and engineering firms specializing in the development of internal combustion engines technology for the automotive, marine, motorcycle and small engine industry. Such competition also exists in the pump and compressor markets which may utilize the Rand Cam technology in their products. Many of these companies have substantially greater resources for research, development and manufacturing than us. It is possible that our competitors may succeed in developing technologies and products that are more effective or commercially acceptable. We believe, based on its testing of the Rand Cam engine that the engine is a superior overall engine package to the reciprocating piston engine. This assessment is made on the basis of the Rand Cam engine's potential for reduced engine weight and packaging volume, improved performance, and possibly lower manufacturing costs.

Technology development is taking place on many fronts and competitors may have, unknown to us, a product or products under development which may be technologically superior to ours which may be more acceptable to the market. Competition with engines employing Rand Cam technology may also include other lean burn engines, electric motors, gas turbine engines, solar power and hybrid vehicles, and may include concepts not yet known to us.

Material effects of Government

Our engine products including the spark ignited engine, Diesel engine and Cold Turbine engine will be subject to various exhaust emissions standards depending upon the application and the country in which it is produced and/or sold. As each product becomes ready for sale, it will be necessary to have the engine certified according to the standards in effort at that time.

C.        ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

For a list of our significant subsidiaries, see “Item 10 – Additional Information – Subsidiary Information”.

D.        PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

We own no properties. We currently utilizes office space which we lease in a commercial business park building located in Richmond, British Columbia, Canada, a suburb of Vancouver. The monthly rent for our portion of this office space is $500.00. The present facilities are believed to be adequate for meeting our needs for the immediate future. However we expect that we will likely acquire separate space when the level of business activity requires us to do so. We do not anticipate that we will have any difficulty in obtaining such additional space at favorable rates. There are no current plans to purchase or lease any properties in the near future.

ITEM 5.        OPERATING AND FINANCIAL REVIEW AND PROSPECTS

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere herein. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP. See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP. The following discussion is derived from the U.S. GAAP reconciliation.

A.        OPERATING RESULTS

We are a development stage company engaged in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand Cam/Direct Charge Engine (the "RC/DC Engine").

As a development stage company, we devote most of our activities to establishing our business. Planned principal activities have not yet produced significant revenues and we have a working capital deficit. We have undergone mounting losses to date totaling $11,373,004 and further losses are expected until we complete a licensing agreement with a manufacturer and reseller. Our working capital deficit is $743,558. Our major assets are our tangible and intangible assets, being patents and intellectual property rights, totaling $201,996 which represents 96% of total assets. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to emerge from the development stage with respect to our planned principal business activity is dependent upon our successful efforts to raise additional equity financing, receive funding from affiliates and controlling shareholders, and develop a market for our products.

Fiscal 2003 compared to 2002

Results of operations was a net loss of $8,000 ($0.01 per share) for 2003 as compared to net income of $166,000 ($0.01 per share) for 2002.

No revenues from the sale or licensing of any technology were realized in 2003 or 2002. We entered into license agreements with Advanced Ceramics Research, Inc. and Rotary Power Generation Incorporated in 2002.

In 2003, the Company recognized a loss of $216,000 as a result of its subsidiary issuing shares outside the consolidated group for cash proceeds of $476,000 which resulted in a deemed disposition of 16% of its ownership in the subsidiary. In 2002 there was a gain of $217,000 on proceeds of $423,000. In 2002 a loss of $30,000 was recognized due to the write-down of the AVFS rights and development costs as compared to nil in 2003. Administrative expenses increased by $91,000 to $441,000 in 2003 from $350,000 in 2002. This increase is a result of services donated to REGI U.S., Inc by directors of the subsidiary; professional fees decreased by $13,000 to $42,000 in 2003 from $55,000 in 2002; travel and promotion decreased by $6,000 to $1,000 in 2003 from $7,000 in 2002.

Research and development expenses increased by $77,000 to $47,000 spent in 2003 compared to a $30,000 recover in 2002. Technical consulting continued to consist of Patrick Badgley and Paul LaMarche, resulting in a decrease of $26,000 to $71,000 in 2003 from $97,000 in 2002. Prototype development costs of $54,000 were recovered in 2003 compared to $97,000 spent in 2002. Accounts payable of $259,000 were written off during 2002. The majority of prototype developments are now being borne by the licesencees and manufacturers.

The Company did not issue any common shares during the year.

- 17 -


B.        LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

In the past, we have derived most of our development and operating capital primarily from the issuance of our capital stock and our subsidiary REGI U.S., Inc. We have also caused our subsidiary, Rand Energy Group Inc. to sell shares it owned in REGI U.S., Inc.

We have been successful in the past in acquiring capital through the issuance of shares of our Common Stock, and through advances from related parties. Although we intend to continue utilizing these sources, there has been no assurance in the past that these sources and methods would continue to be available in the future.

In the event that no other sources of capital were available to us in the future, on a reasonable financial basis, we would face the same obstacles as many small, undercapitalized companies do, and, in the worst case, we could be forced to reorganize or liquidate, either of which consequence would likely have an adverse financial effect upon our shareholders.

Fiscal 2003 compared to 2002

During the fiscal year ended April 30, 2003, we derived most of our development and operating capital primarily from the $141,000 in proceeds received from related companies ($365,000 in 2002).

During the year, we raised a further $42,000 in subscriptions received pursuant to private placements in both the Company and its subsidiary, REGI U.S., Inc. These funds raised do not provide enough working capital to fund ongoing operations for the next twelve months. We may also raise additional funds through the exercise of stock options, if exercised. Options with respect to 1,325,000 shares at $0.10 per share may be exercised to net $132,500, if exercised.

Our investment in research and development activities totaled $64,284 during the 2003 fiscal year, down 36% from the $101,219 spent during the 2002 fiscal year.

C.        RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT, PATENTS AND LICENSES, ETC.

The basic research and development work on the RC/DC Engine and other products is being coordinated and funded by Reg Tech and funded as to 50%.

We plan to contract with outside individuals, institutions and companies to perform most of the additional research and development work which we may require to benefit from our rights to the RC/DC Engine and other products.

During the last two fiscal years, we spent $165,503 on research and development. During the last year, the majority of the costs were paid directly toward the building of the 42 horsepower prototypes by Radian Milparts and by Advanced Ceramics for the 10 horsepower ceramic engine for unmanned aerial applied uses.

Our directors are elected by the shareholders to hold office for a term of one year or until re-elected at the next annual general meeting.

Not applicable.

B.        MEMORANDUM AND ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION

Our Memorandum and Articles are incorporated by reference to the information in our registration statement on Form 20-F filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in Washington, D.C. on June 15, 1994, to which our Articles of Incorporation and Memorandum were filed as exhibits.

C.        MATERIAL CONTRACTS

We did not enter into any material contracts which were not made in the ordinary course of business.

D.        EXCHANGE CONTROLS.

There are no governmental laws, decrees or regulations in Canada relating to restrictions on the export of capital affecting the remittance of interest, dividends or other payments to nonresident holders of the Registrant's shares. Any such remittances, however, are subject to withholding tax. See Item 7, "Taxation".

There are no limitations under the laws of Canada, the Province of British Columbia or in the charter or any other constituent documents of the Company on the right of foreigners to hold or vote our shares. However, under the provisions of the Investment Canada Act, when control of a Canadian business is acquired by a non- Canadian, the transaction may be reviewable in certain circumstances by Investment Canada, an agency of the federal government of Canada. Reviewable transactions are those in which a non-Canadian acquires the assets of a Canadian business or the voting shares of a Canadian corporation the value of which assets or shares exceeds $5 million (Canadian). Also, certain transactions are specifically exempted from review.

E.        TAXATION.

Withholding

Generally, cash dividends paid by Canadian corporations to nonresident shareholders are subject to a withholding tax of 25 percent. However, pursuant to Article X[2] of the Canada-United States tax treaty, dividends paid to a resident if a company of the United States are only subject to a 15 percent withholding tax. Further, if the United states resident owns 10 percent or more of the voting shares of the Canadian company paying the dividends, the withholding tax is reduced to 10 percent. In addition to dividend withholding, interest paid to United States residents is subject to a 15 percent withholding tax pursuant to Article XI[2] of the Canada-United States tax treaty.

Capital Gains

A nonresident purchaser who holds our shares as capital property will not be subject to tax on capital gains realized on the disposition of such shares unless such shares are "taxable Canadian property" within the meaning of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and no relief is afforded under any applicable tax treaty. Our shares would be taxable Canadian property of a nonresident purchaser if the nonresident purchaser used the shares in carrying on a business in Canada or if at any time during the five-year period immediately preceding the disposition not less than 25 percent of the issued shares of any class of the Company belonged to the particular purchaser, persons with whom the purchaser did not deal at arm's length or any combination thereof.

Holders of our Common Shares should seek independent advice from their own professional tax advisors with respect to the Canadian Income Tax consequences arising from the holding of our Common Shares.

ITEM 11.        QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133. "Accounting For Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." This statement establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, and for hedging activities. SFAS No. 133 was effective for our fiscal year beginning March 1, 2002. The Company believes that it does not have any material exposure to interest or commodity risks. The Company does not own any derivative instruments, does not engage in any hedging transactions and does not have any outstanding long-term debt. Because we are not involved in any activities covered by SFAS No. 133, the adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material effect on our financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 15.        CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Based on review and evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(c) and 15(d)-15(c), our principle executive officer and our principle financial officer have concluded that they:

1. are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures;
   
2.
have designed such disclosure controls and procedures to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including our consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the periods in which this 20-F is being prepared;
   
3.
have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing of this 20-F (the “Evaluation Date”);
   
4. along with the Company’s other certifying officers, have disclosed, based on their most recent evaluation, to the Company’s auditors and the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors:
     
  a.
all significant deficiencies, if any, in the design or operation of internal controls which could adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial data and have identified for the Company’s auditors any material weaknesses, if any, in internal controls; and
     
  b.
any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls; and
     
5.
can advise that there were no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date of their most recent evaluation, including any corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material weaknesses..

ITEM 16A.        AUDIT COMMITTEE FINANCIAL EXPERT

We do not currently have a financial expert in our audit committee due to our relatively small size. In 2003, we had only no employees and we relied upon the services of a chartered accountant in Vancouver, BC, Canada, to prepare our interim unaudited quarterly consolidated financial statements. Also, we retained the audit services of Manning Elliott chartered accountants to perform the audit on our year-end consolidated financial statements, and the review engagements to our unaudited quarterly interim statements.

- 28 -


Moreover, the audit committee is comprised of seasoned business professionals, whereby one member has over 25 years of experience in the investment business and is a board member of several corporations.

On these bases, we believe that the audit committee has adequate resources available to it when financial expertise and advice are necessary.

ITEM 16B.        AUDIT CODE OF ETHICS

We have not adopted a formal written code of ethics given our relatively small size, whereby we had no employees in 2003.

Directors are subject to the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada, whereby they are required to act honestly, in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.

ITEM 16C.        PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES

Auditors’ Report

To the Shareholders of
Reg Technologies Inc.

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Reg Technologies Inc. as at April 30, 2003 and 2002, and the consolidated statements of loss and deficit and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards used in Canada. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.

In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects the financial position of the Company as at April 30, 2003 and 2002, and the results of its operations and the changes in its cash flows for the years then ended, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles used in Canada. As required by The British Columbia Company Act we report that, in our opinion, these principles have been applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

Comments by Auditors for
U.S. Readers on Canada - U.S. Reporting Conflict

We also conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards used in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes 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 the United States, reporting standards for auditors require the addition of an explanatory paragraph (following the opinion paragraph) when the financial statements are affected by significant uncertainties and contingencies such as those referred to in Note 2 to these financial statements. Our report to the shareholders dated September 13, 2003 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such uncertainties in the auditors’ report when the uncertainties are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

Reg Technologies Inc.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
For the Years Ended April 30, 2003 and 2002

1.

Consolidated Financial Statements

These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its 51% owned subsidiary, Rand Energy Group Inc., which owns a 28.5% interest in REGI US, Inc., a U.S. public company listed on the OTC Bulletin Board in the United States. REGI US, Inc. continues to be considered a controlled subsidiary for consolidation purposes by way of control through irrevocable voting trusts with other affiliated companies giving the Company the ability to control REGI US, Inc.

   
2.

Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

The Company is in the business of developing and commercially exploiting an improved axial vane type rotary engine known as the Rand Cam™/Direct Charge Engine and other RandCam™ applications, such as compressors and pumps (the “RC/DC Engine”). The world-wide marketing and intellectual rights, other than the U.S., are held by Rand Energy Group Inc. which controls REGI US, Inc. REGI US, Inc. owns the U.S. marketing and intellectual rights. Rand Energy Group Inc. and REGI US, Inc. have a project cost sharing agreement whereby the companies each fund 50% of the further development of The RC/DC Engine and its related industrial applications.

These financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has not generated any revenues from the sale or licensing of The RC/DC Engine or related applications or achieved operational profitability since inception. The Company’s activities are in the development stage and additional costs for the further advancement and application diversification of The RC/DC Engine and related applications must be incurred. There is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to generate revenues and to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent on its ability to obtain financing and/or the attainment of revenues and profitable operations.

The Company also owns a 51% interest in Rand Energy Group, which owns 5,043,000 shares of REGI U.S. Inc., a U.S. company trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, which shares had a value of approximately US$2,068,000 as of September 17, 2003. The Company can sell up to 177,000 shares of REGI US, Inc., being 1% of the issued shares, during any 90 day period.

Significant Accounting Policies
     
 
[a]

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the original purchase consideration paid for Rand Energy Group Inc. over fair market value of net identifiable assets acquired and contingent consideration paid. Goodwill is evaluated in each reporting period and is written down to its net recoverable amount when there is a permanent decline in value.

     
 
[b]

Development costs

Costs incurred by the Company in development of The RC/DC Engine and related applications are capitalized as incurred. Costs will be amortized over the estimated useful life of specific licensed products or rights following commencement of commercial activity, or written-off should The RC/DC Engine and/or AVFS be determined not to be commercially viable. The AVFS rights and development costs were written-off during the year.

     
 
[c]

Property and equipment

Costs to register and protect patents are capitalized. Costs to acquire intellectual property such as technological rights and design drawings are capitalized. Costs of patents and intellectual property are being amortized to development costs on a straight-line basis over 20 years or written-off should The RC/DC Engine and/or AVFS be determined by management not to be commercially viable.

Computer equipment is amortized over three years on a straight-line basis.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
     
 
[d]

Accounting basis

These financial statements are prepared using Canadian generally accepted accounting principles. See Note 11 regarding adjustments from Canadian generally accepted accounting principles to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

     
 
[e]
Foreign currency translation
     
 
[i]

Translation of foreign currency transactions and balances

Revenue, expenses and non-monetary balance sheet items in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the transaction dates. Monetary balance sheet items are translated at the rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. The resulting exchange gain or loss is included in operations.

     
 
[ii]

Translation of foreign subsidiary balances

Assets and liabilities of REGI US, Inc. are translated into Canadian dollars at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date. The foreign subsidiary’s operating results are translated into Canadian dollars using the average exchange rate for the year with any translation gain or loss deferred and included as a separate component of shareholders’ equity.

The accumulated foreign exchange gain, totalling $178,042 to April 30, 2003, is a result of translating assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange on April 30, 2003 as compared to the exchange rate accumulated from the inception of REGI US, Inc.

     
 
[f]

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, particularly the recoverability of capital assets and goodwill, and recording of 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 the estimates.

   
4.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment includes tangible and intangible assets stated at cost less accumulated amortization.

Differences Between Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in Canada and Those in the United States

The material differences between Canadian and U.S. accounting principles is the treatment of the following items:

     
  [a]

Development costs

Development costs, under Canadian accounting principles, may be deferred, until the processes reach commercial production, at which time they are amortized on a systematic basis by reference to the sale or use of the processes, or until the project is sold or abandoned, at which time the costs are written-off.

Under U.S. accounting principles, development costs must be expensed as incurred requiring that development costs of $8,335,425 be expensed.

     
  [b]

Capital assets

Intellectual property and goodwill are treated as capital assets under Canadian accounting principles. Under U.S. accounting principles, these relate to and thus, are treated as, research and development, which must be expensed as incurred, requiring the net book value of capital assets totalling $508,175 be expensed.

     
  [c]

Non-controlling interest.

The amounts written-off to operations in (a) and (b) above would be reduced by $3,020,985 which represents non-controlling interest therein.

     
  [d]

Accumulated foreign exchange

Foreign exchange gains and losses recognized on translation of self-sustaining foreign operations are included in the statement of operations under U.S. accounting principles.
