AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE SHAREHOLDERS 

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of Westport Innovations Inc. as at March 31, 2007 
and 2006 and the consolidated statements of operations 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  Canadian  generally  accepted  auditing  standards.  
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  March  31,  2007  and  2006  and  the  results  of  its  operations 
and  its  cash  flows  for  the  years  then  ended  in  accordance  with  Canadian  generally  accepted 
accounting principles.

WESTPORT INNOVATIONS INC. 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 
(Expressed in Canadian dollars) 

Years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 

1.  Nature of operations: 

Westport Innovations Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated under the Business Corporations Act (Alberta) 

on March 20, 1995. 

The  Company  is  involved  in  the  research,  development  and  commercialization  of  environmental 

technologies,  including  high-pressure  direct  injection  (“HPDI”)  combustion  technology  that  allows  diesel 

engines to operate on cleaner burning gaseous fuels such as natural gas without sacrificing performance or 

fuel  economy.    The  Company  also  has  a  joint  venture  interest  in  Cummins  Westport  Inc.  (“CWI”),  a  joint 

venture with Cummins Inc. (“Cummins”), founded in 2001 (note 17).  CWI develops, supports and markets a 

comprehensive  product  line  of  low-emission,  high  performance  engines  and  ancillary  products  using 

proprietary intellectual property developed by the Company and Cummins. 

These consolidated financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which assumes the 

realisation  of  assets  and  the  settlement  of  liabilities  in  the  normal  course  of  operations.    To  date,  the 

Company  has  financed  its  operations  primarily  by  equity  and  debt  financing  and  margins  on  the  sale  of 

products and parts.  If the Company does not have sufficient funding from internal or external sources, it may 

be required to delay, reduce or eliminate certain research and development programs and forego acquisition 

of  certain  equipment.    The  future  operations  of  the  Company  are  dependent  upon  its  ability  to  produce, 

distribute and sell an economically viable product to attain profitable operations. 

2.  Significant accounting policies: 

(a)  Basis of presentation: 

The  consolidated  financial  statements  include  the  accounts  of  the  Company,  its  wholly  owned 

subsidiaries and CWI.  Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. 

Interests  in  Variable  Interest  Entities  (“VIE”)  are  consolidated  by  the  Company  if  the  Company  is  the 

primary beneficiary.  The Company has identified CWI as a VIE and determined that the Company is the 

primary beneficiary.  Accordingly, the Company has consolidated CWI.  The other 50% interest held by 

Cummins  is  reflected  as  “Joint  Venture  Partner’s  share  of  net  assets  from  joint  venture”  in  these 

consolidated financial statements. 

These financial statements are presented in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting 

principles.   

(b)  Cash and cash equivalents: 

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and term deposits with maturities of ninety days or less when 

acquired. 

(c)  Short-term investments: 

Short-term  investments,  consisting  principally  of  investment  grade  commercial  paper,  are  recorded  at 

cost plus accrued interest.

Years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 

2.  Significant accounting policies (continued): 

(d)  Inventories: 

The Company’s inventory consists of the Company’s fuel system products, parts, work-in-progress, and 

CWI engine products.  Inventories are recorded at the lower of cost and net realizable value.  Cost of 

engine product inventory is determined on a specific identification basis.  Cost of fuel system products 

and parts inventory is determined on a weighted average cost basis.  The cost of fuel system product 

inventories  and  work-in-progress  include  materials,  labour  and  production  overhead.    An  inventory 

obsolescence  provision  is  provided  to  the  extent  cost  of  inventory  exceeds  net  realizable  value.    In 

establishing the amount of inventory obsolescence provision, management estimates the likelihood that 

inventory  carrying  values  will  be  affected  by  changes  in  market  demand  and  technology,  which  would 

make inventory on hand obsolete. 

(e)  Equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements: 

Equipment,  furniture  and  leasehold  improvements  are  stated  at  cost.    Depreciation  is  provided  as 

follows: 

Assets 

Computer equipment and software 
Furniture and fixtures 
Machinery and equipment 
Leasehold improvements 

(f)  Long-term investments:

Lease term 

The Company accounts for long-term investments in entities which are not consolidated using the equity 

method to the extent that the Company has significant influence over the investee’s strategic operating, 

financing  and  investing  policies.    Under  the  equity  method,  the  Company’s  proportionate  share  of 

income or loss is included in the statement of operations and any dividends received are recorded as a 

reduction of the investment.  All other long-term investments are accounted for using the cost method, 

whereby income is recognised in the statement of operations only to the extent dividends are received 

during  the  year.      All  long-term  investments  are  currently  carried  at  cost.    Long-term  investments  are 

reduced to their fair value only to the extent that the loss in value is other than temporary. 

(g)  Research and development costs: 

Research  costs  are  expensed  as  incurred  and  are  recorded  net  of  government  funding  received  or 

receivable.  Development costs are deferred only if they meet certain stringent criteria generally related 

to technical feasibility, market definition and financing availability for future development; otherwise they 

are expensed as incurred.  Related investment tax credits reduce research and development expenses 

in  the  same  year  in  which  the  related  expenditures  are  charged  to  earnings,  provided  there  is 

reasonable  assurance  the  benefits  will  be  realised.   As at March 31, 2007 and 2006, no development 

costs had been deferred.

(Expressed in Canadian dollars) 

Years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006 

2.  Significant accounting policies (continued): 

(h)  Government assistance: 

The  Company  periodically  applies  for  financial  assistance  under  available  government  incentive 

programs which is recorded in the period it is received or receivable.  Government assistance relating to 

the purchase of equipment, furniture and leasehold improvements is reflected as a reduction of the cost 

of such assets.  Government assistance related to research and development activities is recorded as a 

reduction of the related expenditures. 

(i) 

Intellectual property: 

Intellectual property, consisting primarily of the cost of acquired patents, licenses and other intellectual 

property, is amortized over their estimated useful lives, which currently does not exceed seven years.  

(j) 

Impairment of long-lived assets: 

The Company reviews for impairment of long-lived assets, including equipment, furniture, and leasehold 

improvements  and  intellectual  property,  to  be  held  and  used  whenever  events  or  changes  in 

circumstances  indicate  that  the  carrying  amount  of  the  assets  may  not  be  recoverable.    If  such 

conditions  exist,  assets  are  considered  impaired  if  the  sum  of  the  undiscounted  expected  future  cash 

flows  expected  to  result  from  the  use  and  eventual  disposition  of  an  asset  is  less  than  its  carrying 

amount.    An  impairment  loss  is  measured  at  the  amount  by  which  the  carrying  amount  of  the  asset 

exceeds its fair value.  When quoted market prices are not available, the Company uses the expected 

future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risks associated with the recovery of the 

asset as an estimate of fair value. 

(k)  Warranty liability: 

Estimated warranty costs are recognised at the time the Company sells its products, and are included in 

cost of revenue.  The Company provides warranty coverage on products sold for a period of two years 

from  the  date  the  products  are  put  into  service  by  customers.    Warranty  liability  represents  the 

Company’s  best  estimate  of  warranty  costs  expected  to  be  incurred  during  the  warranty  period.  

Furthermore,  the  current  portion  of  warranty  liability  represents  the  Company’s  best  estimate  of  the 

costs  to  be  incurred  in  the  next  twelve  month  period.    The  Company  uses  historical  failure  rates  and 

cost  to  repair  defective  products  together  with  information  on  known  product  issues  to  estimate  the 

warranty  liability.    The  ultimate  amount  payable  by  the  Company  and  the  timing  will  depend  on  actual 

failure rates and cost to repair failures of its products.  Since many of  the Company’s products are new 

in  the  market,  historical  data  may  not  necessarily  reflect  actual  costs  to  be  incurred  and  exposes  the 

Company to the potential for significant fluctuations in the warranty liability. 

(l)  Extended warranty: 

The  Company  sells  extended  warranty  contracts  which  provide  coverage  in  addition  to  the  basic  two 

year  coverage.    Proceeds  from  the  sale  of  these  contracts  are  deferred  and  amortized  over  the 

extended  warranty  period  commencing  at  the  end  of  the  basic  warranty  period.    On  a  periodic  basis, 

management  reviews  the  estimated  warranty  costs  expected  to  be  incurred  related  to  these  contracts 

and recognises a loss to the extent such costs exceed the related deferred revenue.

2.  Significant accounting policies (continued): 

(m)  Revenue recognition: 

Product  and  parts  revenue  is  recognised,  net  of  estimated  costs  of  returns,  allowances,  and  sales 

incentives,  when  the  products  are  shipped  and  title  passes  to  the  customers.    Revenue  also  includes 

fees earned from performing research and development activities for third parties, as well as for granting 

technology  licenses  to  third  parties.    Revenue from research and development activities is recognised 

as the services are performed.  Revenue from technology licenses is recognised over the duration of the 

licensing  agreement.    Amounts  received  in  advance  of  revenue  recognition  are  recorded  as  deferred 

revenue. 

(n)  Income taxes: 

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Under this method, 

future  income  tax  assets  and  liabilities  are  determined  based  on  temporary  differences  between  the 

accounting  and  tax  basis  of  the  assets  and  liabilities  and  for  loss  carry  forwards,  and  are  measured 

using the tax rates expected to apply when these tax assets and liabilities are recovered or settled.  The 

effect on future tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rate is recognised in income in the period that 

includes the substantive enactment date.  A valuation allowance is recorded against any future income 

tax asset if it is not “more likely than not” that the benefit of these assets will be realised. 

(o)  Stock-based compensation plans: 

The  Company  has  a  stock  option  plan,  which  is  described  in  note  13(c).    The  Company  accounts  for 

stock-based  compensation  related  to  stock  options  granted  to  employees  and  directors  using  the  fair 

value  method  and  recognises  stock-based  compensation  in  results  from  operations  over  the  vesting 

period.    The  Company  has  an  employee  share  purchase  plan,  which  is  described  in  note  13(d).    The 

Company matches the employees’ contribution and recognizes this cost as an expense in the period it 

is incurred. 

The Company has a Performance Share Unit (“PSU”) Plan as described in note 14.  The value of the 

units is calculated based on the market price of the Company’s common shares on the date of grant and 

is recorded as compensation expense in the period earned, which generally is the period over which the 

PSU’s vest. 

(p)  Post-retirement benefits: 

The Company has implemented a group registered retirement savings plan (“RRSP”) in which full-time 

employees of the Company are eligible to participate.  Eligible employees may make contributions up to 

their personal eligible contribution room under the Canadian Income Tax Act.  The Company contributes 

up  to  a  maximum  combined  total  of  5%  of  the  employee’s  regular  base  pay  to  the  RRSP  and/or  the 

employee  share  purchase  plan  and  recognises  this  cost  as  an  expense  in  the  period  it  is  incurred.  

During  the  year  ended  March  31,  2007,  the  Company  recognised  $355,887  (2006  -  $317,113)  of 

expense associated with the RRSP.

2.  Significant accounting policies (continued): 

(q)  Foreign currency: 

Monetary items denominated in foreign currency are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates 

in effect at the balance sheet date and non-monetary items are translated at rates of exchange in effect 

when the assets were acquired or obligations incurred.  Revenue and expenses are translated at rates 

in effect at the time of the transactions.  Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in results from 

operations. 

(r)  Use of estimates: 

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that 

affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the 

financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period.  Significant 

areas  requiring  the  use  of  estimates  include  amortization  of  equipment,  furniture  and  leasehold 

improvements,  the  determination  of  future  cash  flows  and  discount  rates  for  impairment  of  long-lived 

assets,  valuation  of  long-term  investments,  valuation  of  future  income  tax  assets  and  the  accrual  of 

warranty liability.  Actual results could differ from estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated 

financial statements. 

(s)  Loss per share: 

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the 

period.    Diluted loss per share is computed similarly to basic loss per share, except that the weighted 

average  number  of  shares  outstanding  are  increased  to  include  additional  shares  from  the  assumed 

exercise  of  conversion  options,  stock  options,  warrants,  and  performance  share  units,  if  dilutive.    For 

stock  options,  warrants  and  performance  units,  the  number  of  additional  shares  is  calculated  by 

assuming that outstanding stock options, warrants, and performance share units were exercised at the 

beginning  of  the  year  or  when  granted  and  that  the  proceeds  from  such  exercises  were  used  to 

repurchase  shares  of  common  stock  at  the  average  market  price  during  the  period.    For  conversion 

options, the Company uses the if-converted method which assumes that the conversion of options are 

exercised at the beginning of the year or when granted. 

(t)  Comparative amounts: 

Certain  comparative  amounts  have  been  reclassified  to  conform  with  the  presentation  adopted  in  the 

current year.

(a)  As at March 31, 2007, the Company owned an approximate 6% (2006 - 8%) interest in Clean Energy 

Fuels  Corp.  (“CEFC”)  prior  to  CEFC’s  initial  public  offering  and  carries  this  investment  at  cost.  

Subsequent to March 31, 2007, CEFC priced its initial public offering of 10,000,000 common shares at 

US$12 per share, diluting the Company’s interest in CEFC to approximately 5%.  CEFC is an owner and 

operator of natural gas refueling facilities. 

(b)  The  Company  also  has  a  15.86%  (2006  -  100%)  interest  in  Wild  River  Resources  Ltd.  (“WRRL”) 

(formerly Westport Research Inc. (“WRI”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company prior to June 13, 

2006), an oil and gas company, and carries this investment at cost.  On June 13, 2006, the Company 

entered into an agreement with Matco Capital Ltd. (“Matco”), an unrelated party, to reorganize WRI.  As 

part  of  the  reorganization,  the  Company  substantially  transferred  all  of  the  assets,  liabilities  and 

operations  of  WRI  to  another  wholly  owned  subsidiary  of  the  Company  which  carries  on  the  business 

previously carried on by WRI.  WRI was then renamed WRRL.  Pursuant to the agreement with Matco, 

the  Company  sold  45%  of  its  investment  in  WRRL  to  Matco  for  cash  consideration.    This  transaction 

resulted in a net gain of $3,891,376.  Subsequently, on February 8, 2007, WRRL issued shares to third 

parties further diluting the Company’s interest from 55% to 17.38%.  This transaction resulted in a net 

dilution gain of $4,004,461.  The Company sold a further 1.52% interest in WRRL for a gain of $224,648 

reducing its investment to 15.86% of the outstanding shares of WRRL.  Effective February 8, 2007, the 

Company  no  longer  controls  WRRL.    Accordingly,  the  Company  no  longer  consolidates  WRRL  and 

accounts for this investment on a cost basis.

The Company has a credit facility for maximum borrowings of $13,000,000.  Borrowings may be drawn in the 

form  of  demand  instalment  loans,  lease  financing,  letters  of  credit,  foreign  exchange  contracts,  corporate 

credit cards and operating lines of credit.  Outstanding amounts of the demand instalment loans drawn under 

this credit facility bear interest at prime and are repayable over a 60-month period. As at March 31, 2007, the 

outstanding amount payable of $1,612,917 is included in current liabilities as it is repayable on demand by 

the bank.

9.  Long-term debt (continued): 

(b)  Under the terms of the agreement with Matco (note 4(b)), Matco facilitated access to a limited recourse 

credit facility up to $7,346,280.  Interest was payable at prime plus 1% until December 31, 2006, after 

which time the interest is payable by Matco.  Repayments of the amount drawn under this credit facility 

will be made only from the proceeds related to the sale by the Company of its interest in WRRL and any 

remaining balance outstanding under the credit facility is due on or before January 31, 2008.  During the 

year,  the  Company  drew  the  maximum  available  under  the  credit  facility  of  $7,346,280  and  re-paid 

$605,000 to March 31, 2007, leaving a balance of $6,741,280.  If no further proceeds are received from 

the sale of the Company’s interest in WRRL by December 31, 2007, Matco is obligated to acquire the 

Company’s  remaining  shares  in  WRRL  for  $6,741,280  which  will  be  used  to  repay  any  amounts 

remaining under the credit facility. 

(c)  On June 12, 2006, the Company agreed to issue up to $22,092,000 in five year secured, subordinated 

convertible notes with a coupon rate of 8% to funds managed by Perseus, L.L.C. (“Perseus”), a private 

equity  fund  management  group.    The  notes  were  issued  in  two  tranches  of  $13,800,000  and 

$8,292,000, respectively, with the closings of the first tranche having been completed on June 12, 2006 

and  July  14,  2006  and  the  second  tranche  closing  on  January  16,  2007.    Interest  is  payable  semi-

annually  in  arrears  on  June  30  and  December  31,  in  additional  notes  or  shares,  at  the  Company’s 

option, for the first two years.  After the first two years, interest will be calculated at a rate of 8% on the 

outstanding principal amount only for the number of trading days in the period on which the share price 

is  below  $3.00  and  is  payable  semi-annually  in  cash,  additional  convertible  notes  or  shares  at  the 

Company’s option.  The number of shares to be issued if interest is paid in shares will be based on the 

market  price  of  the  common  shares  on  the  date  interest  is  due.    The  first  tranche  is  convertible  to 

common shares at a conversion price of $1.30 at any time during the term of the notes and the second 

tranche is convertible to common shares at a conversion price equal to $1.40.  At the time of issuance 

of  the  notes,  the  noteholder  also  received  warrants  to  acquire,  at  an  exercise  price  equal  to  the 

conversion  price  of  the  accompanying  notes,  common  shares  of  the  Company  equal  to  25%  of  the 

number of common shares into which the notes were convertible.  The warrants expire four years from 

the  date  of  issuance  and  include  a  cashless  exercise  provision  which  would  allow  the  noteholder  to 

receive the number of common shares having a value equal to the net gain that would be realized by 

the noteholder had the warrant been exercised for cash and the related shares sold at the market price 

on the date the option is exercised.  Any warrants converted under the cashless exercise provision will 

be cancelled. 

On June 12, 2006, the Company issued $5,500,000 of the first tranche of notes and 1,062,115 warrants.  

On  July  14,  2006,  the  Company  issued  the  remaining  $8,300,000  of  the  first  tranche  of  notes  and 

1,593,173  warrants.    On  January  16, 2007, the Company issued $8,292,000 of the second tranche of 

notes and 1,479,375 warrants.  Of the $22,092,000 cash proceeds received in the year, the Company 

assigned  $7,568,465  to  the  conversion  option,  $1,420,302  to  the  warrants  and  $13,103,233  to  the 

convertible  notes.    The  amount  assigned  to  the  convertible  notes  is  being  accreted  to  the  principal 

amount using the effective interest rate method over the term to maturity. 

During  the  year,  $553,208  of  interest  was  paid  to  Perseus  of  which  $55,323  was  paid  in  cash  and 

$497,885  paid  in  common  shares.    On  March  31,  2007,  interest  of  $406,735  was  payable  to  Perseus 

and included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

(a)  The  Company  renegotiated  its  existing  long-term  lease  agreements  for  its  corporate  offices  and 

research  facilities  in  2004  and  2005  which  included  certain  lease  inducements.    These  inducements 

included leasehold improvements and other costs funded by the lessor and periods with reduced rental 

payments.    The  amounts  related  to  leasehold  improvements  funded  by  the  lessor  are  amortized  on  a 

straight-line basis over the term of the lease as a reduction to rent expense.  For lease contracts with 

escalating  lease  payments,  total  rent  expense  for  the  lease  term  is  expensed  on  a  straight  line  basis 

over the lease term.  The difference between amounts expensed and amounts paid is recorded as an 

increase or reduction in deferred lease inducements. 

(b)  The  Company  receives  cash  in  advance  including  upfront  fees,  customer  deposits,  fees  for  research 

and development activities and extended warranty contracts which are included in deferred revenue and 

are  recognised  into  earnings  over  the  contract  period,  as  research  and  development  activities  are 

completed or over the warranty period as applicable. 

11.  Government assistance: 

From time to time, the Company enters into agreements for financial assistance with government agencies.  

During  the years ended March 31, 2007 and 2006, government assistance of $5,150,357 and $8,689,159, 

respectively, was received or receivable by the Company, which has been recorded as a reduction of related 

research and development expenditures (note 15). 

Included  in  the  above  amounts  is  funding  of  $2,204,590  (2006  -  $2,623,346)  from  Industry  Canada’s 

Industrial Technologies Office (formerly Technology Partnerships Canada) (“TPC”) and $3,779,040 remains 

receivable from TPC at March 31, 2007 (2006 - $1,574,450).  Under the terms of the original TPC funding 

agreement entered into on March 27, 2003, TPC will fund 30% of the eligible costs of, among other research 

projects, the adaptation of the Company’s technology to diesel engines with a scheduled project completion 

date of March 31, 2006.  During the year, the Company was in discussions to extend the project completion 

date  and  extend  the  agreement  by  two  years.    In  the  fourth  quarter  of  fiscal  2007,  TPC  substantially 

completed  its  review  of  the  proposed  amended  statement  of  work  and  approval  has  been  received  from 

TPC.  Under the amended terms of the agreement, from fiscal 2009 to fiscal 2015, inclusive, the Company is 

obligated to pay annual royalties equal to the greater of $1,350,000 or 0.33% of the Company’s annual gross 

revenue  from  all  sources,  provided  that  gross  revenue  exceeds  $13,500,000  in  any  of  the  aforementioned 

fiscal  years.    The  royalty  payment  period  may  be  extended  until  the  earlier  of  March  31,  2018  or  until 

cumulative royalties total $28,189,000.  In addition, the Company is required to provide TPC with common 

share purchase warrants having a value of $4,000,000 as at September 30, 2008 calculated based on the 

Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The value of the warrants have been accreted on a straight-line basis 

to September 30, 2006, the original issuance date, as a charge to research and development expenses.

11.  Government assistance (continued): 

The  Company  is  also  obligated  to  pay  royalties  to  the  Government  of  Canada’s  Department  of  Natural 

Resources  and  British  Columbia’s  Green  Economy  Development  Fund  relating to funding received in prior 

years.  The royalty to the Department of Natural Resources is 1% of future revenue from engines for power 

generators  until  the  earlier  of  ten  years  from  the  project  completion  date  (August  30,  2004)  or  when 

cumulative royalties total $1,000,000.  As at March 31, 2007, there have been no revenue from the sales of 

engines  for  power  generators  and,  therefore,  no  royalty  payments  have  been  paid  or  are  payable.    The 

royalty to the Green Economy Development Fund is 0.75% of gross revenue received by the Company on 

certain natural gas fuel systems and the obligation will cease on the earlier of the seventh anniversary of the 

funding  contribution  date  (April  10,  2001)  or  when  the  cumulative  royalties  paid  by  the  Company  equal 

$800,000.  As at March 31, 2007, no royalties have been paid or are payable.

Under the terms of the agreement with TPC, the Company  has an obligation to issue warrants with a 

fair value of $4,000,000 based on the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  The value of these warrants 

was recognized on a straight-line basis from the date of the original agreement to September 30, 2006, 

the  original  issuance  date.    For  the  year  ended  March  31,  2007,  accretion  totaling  $571,428  (2006  - 

$1,142,857)  has  been  included  in  research  and  development  expenses.    The  Company  negotiated  a 

two year extension to the TPC agreement and, as a result, will not issue the warrants until September 

30, 2008.  Accordingly, the amount has been classified as a long-term liability as at March 31, 2007. 

(b)  Shares to be issued: 

Under  the  terms  of  the  agreement  with  GVH  Entwicklungsgesellschaft  für  Verbrennungsmotoren  und

through issuance of shares.  The entire obligation was settled during the year.

The  fair  value  of  the  options  granted  was  determined  using  the  Black-Scholes  option  pricing  model 

using  the  following  weighted  average  assumptions:    expected  dividend  yield  -  nil%  (2006  -  nil%); 

expected  stock  price  volatility  -  59%  (2006  -  65%);  risk  free  interest  rate  -  4.79%  (2006  -  4.20%); 

expected  life  of  options  -  5  years  (2006  -  5  years).    The  weighted  average  grant  date  fair  value  was 

$0.70  for  options  granted  for  the  year  ended  March  31,  2007  (2006  -  $0.87).    During  the  year  ended 

March 31, 2007, the Company recognized $530,704 (2006 - $1,851,684) in stock-based compensation 

related to stock options. 

(d)  Employee share purchase plan: 

The  Company  has  an  employee  share  purchase  plan  (“ESPP”)  in  which  full-time  employees  of  the 

Company are eligible to participate.  Eligible employees may make contributions to the ESPP of up to 

10% of their regular base pay.  The Company contributes up to a maximum combined total of 5% of the 

employee's regular base pay to the employee’s RRSP and/or ESPP.  Shares contributed to the ESPP 

are  purchased  by  the  Company  on  a  semi-monthly  basis  on  the  open  market.    Shares  purchased  on 

behalf  of  the  employee  with  the  employee’s  contribution  vest  with  the  employee  immediately.    Shares 
purchased  with  the  Company’s  contribution  vest  on  December  31st  of  each  year,  so  long  as  the 
employee is still employed with the Company. 

(e)  Loss per share: 

Diluted  loss  per  share  does  not  differ  from  basic  loss  per  share  as  the  impact  of  dilutive  securities, 

including all conversion options, stock options, warrants, and performance share units, is anti-dilutive.

Value  assigned  to  performance  share  units  (“Units”)  relates  to  Units  granted  pursuant  to  the  Company’s 

2003  Performance  Share  Unit  Plan  (“2003  Unit  Plan”)  as  amended  and  restated  (the  “Amended  and 

Restated  Unit  Plan”).    At  the  Company's  2006  annual  general  meeting,  the  shareholders  of  the  Company 

ratified and approved the Amended and Restated Unit Plan and reserved 7,500,000 common shares under 

this plan.  The Amended and Restated Unit Plan is in addition to the Performance Share Unit Plan approved 

by  the  shareholders  on  September 10,  2001  (the  “2001  PSU  Plan”).    Each  performance  share  issued 

pursuant  to  the  Amended  and  Restated  Unit  Plan  or  the  2001  PSU  Plan  is  exercisable  into  one  common 

share  of  the  Company  for  no  additional  consideration.    Any  employee,  contractor,  director  or  executive 

officer of the Company who is selected by the Board of Directors of the Company is eligible to participate in 

the  Amended  and  Restated  Unit  Plan.    The  Executive  and  Senior  Management  Total  Compensation 

Program  sets  out  provisions  where  the  Units  will  be  granted  to  the  Company’s  executive  management  if 

performance  milestones  are  achieved  as  determined  at  the  discretion  of  the  Human  Resources  and 

Compensation  Committee  of  the  Company’s  Board  of  Directors  in  consultation  with  the  Company’s 

management.    These  performance  milestones  are  focused  on  achievement  of  key  cash  management, 

profitability and revenue growth objectives.  Vesting periods for each Unit granted pursuant to the Amended 

and Restated Unit Plan is at the discretion of the Board of Directors and may include time based, share price 

or other performance targets. 

The value assigned to issued Units and the amounts accrued are recorded as other equity instruments.  As 

Units  are  exercised  and  the  underlying  shares  are  issued  from  treasury  of  the  Company,  the  value  is 

reclassified to share capital.  During the year ended March 31, 2007, the Company recognised $1,558,952 

(2006 - $1,082,158) of stock-based compensation associated with the 2001 PSU Plan and the Amended and 

Restated Unit Plan. 

The  stock-based  compensation  associated  with  the  Unit  plans  and  the  stock  option  plan  as  described  in 

note 13(c) is included in operating expenses as follows:

16.  Income taxes (continued): 

(b)  Continued: 

In  determining  the  valuation  allowance,  management  considers  whether  it  is  more  likely  than  not  that 

some  portion  or  all  of  the  future  tax  assets  will  not  be  realised.    The  ultimate  realisation  of  future  tax 

assets  is  dependent  on  the  generation  of  income  during  the  future  periods  in  which  those  temporary 

differences become deductible.  Since evidence does not exist that the future income tax assets will be 

fully realised, a valuation allowance has been recorded.  A portion of the valuation allowance related to 

CWI  has  been  reversed  as  CWI  has  generated  taxable  income  for  two  consecutive  tax  years  and the 

Company expects that CWI will generate taxable income in the future. 

Current  tax  expense  consists  of  $404,208  payable  outside  of  Canada.    Future  income  tax  recovery 

relates to temporary differences in the United States. 

(c)  The  Company  has  non-capital  loss  carry  forwards  in  Canada  available  to  offset  future  taxable income 

which expire as follows:

(d)  The Company has no unclaimed scientific and experimental and investment tax credits. 

17.  Investment in Cummins Westport Inc.: 

The  Company  entered  into  a  joint  venture  with  Cummins  on  March  7,  2001.    The  joint  venture,  CWI,  was 

formed  to  explore  a  range  of  product  and  technology  opportunities  using  natural  gas  as  the  primary  fuel.  

The Company provided personnel, financing and key technologies for the venture, while Cummins provided 

an existing product line, manufacturing, product distribution and customer service functions, as well as key 

management and engineering personnel.  

From inception until December 31, 2003, the Company was responsible for all capital contributions to fund 

operations.    Initially  and  to  December  31,  2003,  the  Company  owned  100%  of  the  common  shares  and 

Cummins owned 100% of the non-participating preferred shares which were convertible into common shares 

for no consideration at the option of Cummins.

17.  Investment in Cummins Westport Inc. (continued): 

On  December  16,  2003,  the  Company  and  Cummins  amended  the  joint  venture  agreement  to  have  CWI 

focus  on  and  develop  markets  for  alternative  fuel  engines.    In  addition,  the  two  companies  signed  a 

Technology  Partnership  Agreement  that  creates  a  flexible  arrangement  for  future  technology  development 

between Cummins and the Company.  Under the terms of the amended joint venture agreement, Cummins 

exercised the conversion feature of the preferred shares effective January 1, 2004.  However, the Company 

remained responsible for funding the profit and loss of CWI through CWI’s fiscal 2004 year which ran from 

January  1  to  December  31,  2004.    Based  on  its  economic  interest  in  CWI,  the  Company  continued  to 

consolidate 100% of the results of operations from CWI until December 31, 2004. 

Subsequent to December 31, 2004, Cummins shares equally in the profits and losses of CWI.  However, the 

Company has determined that CWI is a VIE and that the Company is the primary beneficiary.  Accordingly, 

the  Company  continues  to  consolidate  CWI with Cummins’ share of CWI’s income and losses included as 

“Joint Venture Partner’s share of net income from joint venture”.   

Assets,  liabilities,  revenue  and  expenses  of  CWI  included  in  the  consolidated  financial  statements  of  the 

Company as at and for the periods presented are as follows:

19.  Financial instruments: 

(a)  Fair values: 

The  carrying  amounts  reported  in  the  balance  sheets  for  cash  and  cash  equivalents,  short-term 

investments,  accounts  receivable,  and  accounts  payable  and  accrued  liabilities  approximate  their  fair 

values  due  to  the  short  terms  to  maturity  of  these  instruments.    The  carrying  value  of  the  warranty 

obligation represents management’s best estimate of its fair value. 

The  carrying  value  reported  in  the  balance  sheets  for  obligations  under  capital  lease,  which  is  based 

upon  discounted  cash  flows,  approximates  its  fair  value.    The  fair  value  of  the  Company’s  demand 

instalment  loan  and  other  long-term  debt  obligations  is  not  materially  different  from  its  carrying  value 

based on market rates of interest. 

Clean Energy Fuels Corp., as described in note 4(a) is now listed on the NASDAQ and the Company’s 

investment has an estimated fair value as at March 31, 2007 of approximately $29,225,000. 

The  fair  value  of  the  Company’s  long-term  investment  in  WRRL,  a  private  company,  as  described  in 

note 4(b) is not determinable with sufficient reliability due to the absence of a readily available market for 

the shares of WRRL. 

The  fair  value  of  the  Company’s  subordinated  convertible  notes  as  described  in  note  9(c)  is  not 

determinable  with  sufficient  reliability  due  to  the  absence  of  a  readily  available  market  for  similar 

instruments. 

The fair value of the Company’s financial instruments as described in note 12 represents management’s 

best estimate of its fair value. 

(b)  Concentrations of credit risk: 

The  Company  is  exposed  to  credit  risk  only  with  respect  to  uncertainties  as  to  timing  and  amount  of
