NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Business
Scio Diamond Technology Corporation (the Company) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada as Krossbow Holding Corp. on September 17, 2009. The original business plan of the Company was focused on offsetting C02 emissions through the creation and protection of forest-based carbon sinks. The Company has since abandoned its original business plan and restructured its business to focus on man-made diamond technology development and commercialization.
On July 13, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company resolved to authorize a 2-for-1 forward split of its issued and outstanding common shares, whereby every one (1) old share of common stock was to be exchanged for two new shares of the Companys common stock, effective on August 5, 2011. As a result, once the forward split was declared effective by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the issued and outstanding shares of common stock increased from 3,200,000 prior to the forward split to 6,400,000 following the forward split. The forward split shares are payable upon surrender of certificates to the Companys transfer agent. The accompanying financial statements and notes give retroactive effect to the forward split for all periods presented.
Going Concern
The Company has not generated any revenue to date and consequently its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the establishment of a new business enterprise. For the period from inception, September 17, 2009, through December 31, 2011, the Company has accumulated losses of ($1,224,863).
These factors raise substantial doubt about the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. Management has responded to these circumstances by taking the following actions:
* Focused efforts on the construction and start-up of its state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in South Carolina in order to begin production and generate revenues.
* Ongoing solicitation of investment in the Company in the form of a private placement of common shares to accredited investors.
* Responded to potential customer contacts in order to meet potential orders immediately upon production start-up.
In the opinion of management, these actions will be sufficient to provide the Company with the liquidity it needs to meet its obligations and continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company will successfully implement these plans. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Accounting Basis
The accompanying unaudited financial statements of Scio Diamond Technology Corporation (formerly Krossbow Holding Corp.) (referred to herein as the Company, we, us, or our) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the Companys financial position as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2011 and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and for the period September 17, 2009 (inception) through December 31, 2011. All interim amounts have not been audited, and the results of operations for the interim periods herein are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Companys audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Form 10-K Annual Report of Scio Diamond Technology Corporation (formerly Krossbow Holding Corp.) for the year ended March 31, 2011.
Development Stage Company
The financial statements have been prepared following the requirements of GAAP for development-stage companies. A development-stage company is one in which planned principal operations have not commenced or if its operations have commenced, there have been no significant revenues therefrom.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
Net loss per share is presented under two formats: basic net loss per common share, which is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, and diluted net loss per common share, which is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, and the weighted average dilutive potential common shares outstanding, computed using the treasury stock method. Currently, for all periods presented, diluted net loss per share is the same as basic net loss per share as the inclusion of weighted average shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants would be anti-dilutive.
The following table summarizes the number of securities outstanding at each of the periods presented, which were not included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share as their inclusion would be anti-dilutive:

Property, Plant and Equipment
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment is on a straight line basis beginning at the time it is placed in service, based on the following estimated useful lives:
Years
Machinery and equipment 315
Furniture and fixtures 310
Engineering equipment 512
Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the lesser of the remaining term of the lease or the life of the asset (generally three to five years).
Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are capitalized. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Equipment has not been placed into service as of December 31, 2011.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets, such as acquired in-process research and development costs, are considered to have an indefinite useful life until such time as they are put into service at which time they will be amortized on a straight-line basis over the shorter of their economic or legal useful life. Management evaluates indefinite life intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and on an interim basis if events or changes in circumstances between annual impairment tests indicate that the asset might be impaired. The ongoing evaluation for impairment of its indefinite life intangible assets requires significant management estimates and judgment. Management reviews definite life intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. There were no impairment charges in 2011.
Fair Value Measurement
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The fair value hierarchy prescribed by the accounting literature contains three levels as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
In addition, GAAP requires the Company to disclose the fair value for financial assets on both a recurring and non-recurring basis. At December 31, 2011, the Company has issued ADI subscription rights valued at $11,040,000 for the purchase of assets disclosed in Note 2 measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. The fair value of the ADI subscription rights was determined based on an appraisal which used the Black-Scholes model whose assumptions were considered by management to be a level 3 input.
As of December 31, 2011 the Company also had 370,014 warrants outstanding with exercise prices of $.70 per share. The warrants expire in 2016 and 2017. The warrants were issued by the Company as compensation for consulting work and are valued at $.52 per warrant using the Black-Scholes model.
The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents including restricted cash, accounts receivable, other assets and trade accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.
Restatement
As previously reported, on August 31, 2011, the Company acquired certain assets of Apollo Diamond, Inc. (ADI) (the ADI Asset Purchase), consisting primarily of diamond growing machines and intellectual property related thereto. Also as previously announced, on June 5, 2012, the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of Apollo Diamond Gemstone Corporation (ADGC) (the ADGC Asset Purchase), consisting primarily of cultured diamond gemstone-related know-how, inventory, and various intellectual property.
As previously reported, each of ADI and ADGC had originally contracted in March 2011 to complete the ADI Asset Purchase and the ADGC Asset Purchase with a different, privately held, Nevada company which also had the name Scio Diamond Technology Corporation (Private Scio). In connection with obtaining the stockholder approvals for those transactions and the redemption of the outstanding ADI and ADGC shares for $0.01 per share, each of ADI and ADGC arranged for Private Scio to agree to issue warrants to purchase common stock of Private Scio, exercisable for $0.01 per share, to stockholders of ADI and ADGC that were accredited investors and that agreed to have their shares of ADI and ADGC redeemed by such companies. As previously disclosed, on August 5, 2011, Private Scio sold its name to the Company in exchange for 13 million shares of the Companys common stock. On August 31, 2011, the Company completed the ADI Asset Purchase. In September 2011, the Company delivered a letter to certain former ADI and ADGC stockholders stating that, in connection with the Companys acquisition of assets from ADI and ADGC, the Company would provide a right to buy Company common stock for $0.01 per share to such stockholders (the ADI Shareholder Purchase Rights or ADI subscription rights and the ADGC Shareholder Purchase Rights, respectively) that were accredited investors, provided certain information to the Company regarding their intentions to purchase such shares of Company common stock, and accepted payment from ADI or ADGC, as applicable, for the repurchase of such stockholders shares in ADI and ADGC, respectively. However, the Company did not have a definitive written agreement with ADGC with respect to the ADGC Asset Purchase at the time, and based on advice of its then counsel, the Company concluded that it did not have an obligation to issue the common stock purchase documents or an obligation to disclose the proposed sale of such common stock until the Company reached a definitive agreement with ADGC to complete the ADGC Asset Purchase.
The Company has reviewed and further analyzed its previously completed ADI Asset Purchase and the background of the ADGC Transaction, and the Company has concluded that it was obligated to complete the ADI Shareholder Purchase Rights offering at the time of the ADI Asset Purchase on August 31, 2011 and that it was obligated to complete the ADGC Shareholder Purchase Rights offering at the time of the ADGC Asset Purchase on June 5, 2012. After extensive review of the above events, the Company concluded that the ADI Shareholder Purchase Rights offering should have been treated as part of the purchase price of the ADI assets pursuant to the ADI Asset Purchase and that, as a result, the Company should restate its quarterly financial statements and related Form 10-Q filings for each of the quarters ended September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2011 as a result.
The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2011, and has refiled its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended September 31, 2005 to reflect the proper accounting treatment.
Effects of the restatement by line item follow for the periods presented in this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-Q:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Guidance on Testing Goodwill for Impairment. ASU 2011-08 gives entities testing goodwill for impairment the option of performing a qualitative assessment before calculating the fair value of a reporting unit in Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test. If entities determine, on the basis of qualitative factors, that the fair value of a reporting unit is more likely than not less than the carrying amount, the two-step impairment test would be required. Otherwise, further testing would not be needed. ASU 2011-08 will be effective for fiscal and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this accounting standard will not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
In July 2012 the FASB issued new ASU No. 2012-02, Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment (the revised standard). The revised standard is intended to reduce the cost and complexity of testing indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill for impairment. It allows companies to perform a "qualitative" assessment to determine whether further impairment testing of indefinite-lived intangible assets is necessary, similar in approach to the goodwill impairment test. The revised standard is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. Early adoption is permitted. The Company will adopt this new standard in 2013.
There are currently no other accounting standards that have been issued that will have a significant impact on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows upon adoption.

NOTE 2 ASSET PURCHASE
The Company purchased certain assets from Apollo Diamond Inc. (ADI) on August 31, 2011, consisting primarily of diamond growing machines and certain intellectual property related thereto. The purchase price consisted of an aggregate of $2,000,000 in a combination of cash and a promissory note bearing interest at 4.00% annually and due and owing in full on September 1, 2012, plus the subscriptions rights for certain current and former stockholders of ADI to acquire approximately 16 million shares of common stock of the Company for $0.01 per share (the ADI Offering). The Company has estimated the fair value of these ADI subscription rights to acquire shares of common stock of the Company for $0.01 per share to be $0.69 per right. At the date of the transaction, the fair value of the subscriptions rights was $11,040,000, and this amount was credited to additional paid-in capital. The fair value of the ADI subscription rights was determined using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: estimated volatility of 100%, risk free interest rate of 0.1%, and an expected life of 1 year.
The following table reflects our purchase price allocation of the assets:

The Company completed a third-party valuation to determine the fair value of the assets acquired. The final amounts allocated to the assets acquired are based upon the results of that valuation appraisal.

NOTE 4 NOTES PAYABLE
In conjunction with the purchase of certain assets from ADI on August 31, 2011, the Company entered into a promissory note bearing interest at 4.00% annually and due and payable in full on September 1, 2012. As of December 31, 2011, $125,000 of the promissory note to ADI remained unpaid.

The authorized capital of the Company is 75,000,000 common shares with a par value of $ 0.001 per share.
In December 2009, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock, post 2-for-1 forward split, at a price of $0.002 per share for total cash proceeds of $4,000.
In January through March 2010, the Company issued 4,400,000 shares of common stock, post 2-for-1 forward split, at a price of $0.005 per share for total cash proceeds of $22,000.
During the three months ended September 30, 2011, the Company issued 18,717,570 shares of common stock on August 5, 2011. 3,200,000 shares were issued in a 2-for-1 forward split from Krossbow Holding Corp. shareholders. As part of a private placement, 2,517,570 shares were issued at a price of $0.70 per share for total cash proceeds, net of fees, of $1,679,064. 13,000,000 shares were issued at a market value price of $0.02 per share purchasing the name Scio Diamond Technology Corporation (the Scio name) for a total purchase price of $260,000. The Company purchased the Scio name from a privately-held Nevada corporation (Private Scio) that also had the Scio name. The Company and Private Scio are entities under common control. Accounting Standards Codification 805-50-30-5 states that when accounting for a transfer of assets between entities under common control, the entity that receives the asset shall initially measure the recognized asset at the carrying amount in the accounts of the transferring entity at the date of the transfer. As the Scio name acquired had no carrying value, the value of the shares given to purchase the Scio name were recorded as a deemed distribution so that the accounting basis of the Scio name remained at zero. In addition, the Company issued 16 million subscription rights with an exercise price of $0.01 per share to certain current and former stockholders of ADI as part of the asset purchase discussed in Note 2.
During the three months ended December 31, 2011, the Company issued 3,908,000 shares at a price of $0.70 per share for total cash proceeds, net of fees, of $2,672,059. The Company has 25,825,570 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2011.
As of December 31, 2011 the Company had 370,014 warrants outstanding with exercise prices of $.70 per share. The warrants expire in 2016 and 2017. The warrants were issued by the Company as compensation for consulting work and valued at $.52 per warrant using the Black-Scholes model.
