This annual report on Form 10-K is for the year ended December 31, 2013. The
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) allows us to “incorporate by reference”
information that we file with the SEC, which means that we can disclose important
information to you by referring you directly to those documents. Information
incorporated by reference is considered to be part of this annual report. In addition,
information that we file with the SEC in the future will automatically update and
supersede information contained in this annual report. In this annual report, “Company,”

This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company has based these forward-
looking statements on the Company’s current expectations and projections about future
events. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and assumptions about us and the Company’s subsidiaries that may cause
the Company’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be
materially different from any future results, levels of activity, performance or
achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. In many cases,
you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,”
“estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,”
“predict,” “should,” “will,” “expect,” “objective,” “projection,” “forecast,” “goal,”
“guidance,” “outlook,” “effort,” “target” and other similar words. However, the
absence of these words does not mean that the statements are not forward-looking.
Factors that might cause or contribute to a material difference include, but are not
limited to, those discussed elsewhere in this Annual Report, including the section entitled
“Risk Factors” and the risks discussed in the Company’s other Securities and Exchange
Commission filings. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
Company’s audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes thereto
included elsewhere in this report.
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
HISTORY
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware under the name BigVault.com Inc.
on April 13, 2000. On April 18, 2000, we merged with BigVault.com, Inc., a New York
corporation with which we were affiliated. We survived the merger, and on December 19,
2000 changed our name to bigVAULT Storage Technologies, Inc. At that time we were
in the business of providing remote, internet-based storage vaulting services and related
ancillary services to end users and resellers (the “Vault Business”).
On February 28, 2006 we sold all of our assets to Digi-Data Corporation
(“DDC”), an unrelated third party, pursuant to the terms of an Asset Purchase Agreement
dated December 21, 2005 (the “APA”), a copy of which is filed herewith as an exhibit.
As consideration for our transfer of assets under the APA, DDC paid certain of our
liabilities and agreed to make certain quarterly and annual revenue sharing payments to
us, as is further described below. Mr. Salerno and Ms. Luqman accepted employment
with DDC in senior management positions post closing, and continued to work for DDC
until February 2009. As of March 1, 2009 Mr. Salerno and Ms. Luqman returned to their
full time management roles with the Company.
On April 5, 2006, we changed our name to iGambit Inc.
1
On October 1, 2009, we acquired the assets of Jekyll Island Ventures, Inc., a New
York corporation doing business as Gotham Photo Company (“Jekyll”) through our
wholly owned subsidiary Gotham Innovation Lab, Inc., a New York corporation
(“Gotham”). Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (“APAPR”), we (i) issued 500,000 shares of our common stock to Jekyll
at closing; (ii) assumed $10,410.59 of Jekyll accounts payable relating to office rent and
health insurance premiums; and (iii) issued Jekyll warrants to purchase 1,500,000 shares
of our common stock, at $0.01 per share, subject to a 3 year vesting schedule and the
attainment by Gotham of certain revenue targets during said 3 year period. The 3 year
period has ended and Gotham did not attain the revenue targets.
On December 28, 2012, we entered into an Asset and Stock Purchase Agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”) to acquire substantially all of the assets of IGX Global Inc. a
Connecticut corporation (“IGXUS”), and all of the issued and outstanding shares of IGX
Global UK Limited a UK Private Limited company (“IGXUK”) through our wholly
owned subsidiary IGXGLOBAL CORP., a Delaware corporation (“IGXGLOBAL”), and
thereby acquired the business operated by IGSUS and IGSUK (the “Acquired Business”).
Thomas Duffy is the sole shareholder of both IGXUK and IGXUS (the “Shareholder”).
The Purchase Agreement was disclosed on the Company’s current report on Form 8-K
filed on January 7, 2013.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement Thomas Duffy was to receive
(i) $1,500,000 payable $ 500,000 in cash and a Promissory Note in the principal sum of
$1,000,000 and (ii) Thomas Duffy was to receive 3.75 million iGambit Inc. Common
voting shares over a three-year period starting on the first through third anniversary of
signing of this agreement, based upon certain criteria. In addition, iGambit was to pay
approximately $2,500,000 of the Acquired Business’s liabilities (the “Assumed
Liabilities”).
The cash portion and certain debt assumed of the Purchase Price was financed
through asset based funding issued by Keltic Financial Partners II LLP for a $6 million
revolving credit line.
On April 8, 2013, iGambit Inc. (“iGambit”) and its wholly owned subsidiary,
IGXGLOBAL, CORP. (“IGXGLOBAL”, and collectively, the "Company"), entered
into, and became obligated under, a transaction to rescind the Company’s Purchase
Agreement dated December 28, 2012 with IGX Global Inc. (“IGXUS”), IGX Global
UK Limited (“IGXUK”, and collectively, “IGXNJ”) and Tomas Duffy (“Duffy”) the sole
shareholder of both IGXUK and IGXUS (the “Shareholder”). The Rescission Agreement
was disclosed on the Company’s current report on Form 8-K filed on April 12, 2013.
Under the terms of the Rescission Agreement, the Company, IGXNJ and
Shareholder (collectively “IGX”), agreed to unwind the Purchase Agreement in its
entirety and to fully restore each to the positions they were respectively in prior to
entering the Purchase Agreement, in every respect other than as otherwise expressly
contemplated by the Rescission Agreement; and key terms as follows:
2
(i) IGX to payback or arrange acceptable payoff of the Keltic Financing;
(ii) Cancellation of any future consideration to IGX;
(iii) IGX to pay to iGambit $625,000 in consideration for its expenses and
inconvenience; and
(v) IGX to assume and pay certain expenses related to the contemplated
Purchase Agreement.
On April 25, 2013 the conditions to closing the Rescission Agreement were
completed.
OUR COMPANY
Introduction
We are a company focused on the technology markets. Presently we have one
operating subsidiary, Gotham Innovation Lab Inc. (“Gotham”). Gotham is in the business
of providing media technology services to the real estate industry. Revenues consist
mostly of revenues from the operation of our Gotham subsidiary ($1,461,183 during year
ended December 31, 2013). . In addition to Gotham’s operations, we earned other income
of $755,000 and income from discontinued operations of $317,625.
Our primary focus is the acquisition of additional technology companies. We
believe that the background of our management and of our Board of Directors in the
technology markets is a valuable resource that makes us a desirable business partner to
the companies that we are seeking to acquire. When we acquire a company, we work to
assume an active role in the development and growth of the company, providing both
strategic guidance and operational support. We provide strategic guidance to our partner
companies relating to, among other things, market positioning, business model and
product development, strategic capital expenditures, mergers and acquisitions and exit
opportunities. Additionally, we provide operational support to help our partner companies
manage day-to-day business and operational issues and implement best practices in the
areas of finance, sales and marketing, business development, human resources and legal
services. Once a company joins our partner company network, our collective expertise is
leveraged to help position that company to produce high-margin, recurring and
predictable earnings and generate long-term value for our stockholders.
Our current intention is to fund the purchase price of acquisitions through a
combination of the issuance of our common stock at closing and the issuance of common
stock purchase or common-stock warrants that would become exercisable only in the
event certain earn-out conditions are satisfied by the acquired company. In addition to
acquiring entire companies, we would also consider entering into joint ventures and
acquiring less than 100 percent of a target company.
3
Our Strategy to Grow the Company
General
We have an overall corporate business plan as a holding company to seek out and
acquire operating companies. Phase one of our strategy is complete. We established new
corporate headquarters and a website, expanded our board to include 3 outside
independent directors, set up periodic board meetings, engaged a sophisticated full
service law firm, engaged a new PCAOB registered auditing firm, engaged an investment
banking firm as advisors to assist in the analysis of target acquisitions, and become an
SEC reporting company. In addition, we have identified and acquired our first target
company, Jekyll Island Ventures Inc. We are working on a daily basis towards phase two
of our strategy, identifying further acquisitions that will expand and or complement our
existing subsidiary.
Sources of Target Businesses
We anticipate that target business candidates will be brought to our attention from
various sources, including our management team, investment bankers, venture capital
funds, private equity funds, leveraged buyout funds, management buyout funds,
consulting firms and other members of the financial community who will become aware
that we are seeking business partners via public relations and marketing efforts, direct
contact by management or other similar efforts, who may present solicited or unsolicited
proposals. Any finder or broker would only be paid a fee upon the completion of a
business combination. While we do not presently anticipate engaging the services of
professional firms that specialize in acquisitions on any formal basis, we may decide to
engage such firms in the future or we may be approached on an unsolicited basis. Our
officers and directors, as well as their affiliates, may also bring to our attention target
business candidates that they become aware of through their business contacts. While our
officers and directors make no commitment as to the amount of time they will spend
trying to identify or investigate potential target businesses, they believe that the various
relationships they have developed over their careers together with their direct inquiry,
will generate a number of potential target businesses that will warrant further
investigation. In no event will we pay any of our existing officers, directors, special
advisors or stockholders or any entity with which they are affiliated any finder’s fee or
other compensation for services rendered to us prior to or in connection with the
completion of a business combination. In addition, none of our officers, directors, special
advisors or existing stockholders will receive any finder’s fee, consulting fees or any
similar fees from any person or entity in connection with any business combination
involving us other than any compensation or fees that may be received for any services
provided following such business combination.
Selecting Acquisition Targets
Our management has virtually unrestricted flexibility in identifying prospective
target business and diligently reviews all of the proposals we receive.
4
The criteria we look for in a potential acquisition include, but are not limited to,
the following:
Company Characteristics
§ Established Company with proven track record
o Company with history of strong operating and financial performance, or
o Company undergoing a turnaround that demonstrates strong prospects for
future growth
§ Strong Cash Flow Characteristics.
o Cash flow neutral or positive,
o Predictable recurring revenue stream,
o High gross margins and
o Low working capital and capital expenditure needs
§ Strong Competitive Industry Position
o Leading or niche market position, and/or
o Strong channel relationships that promote barriers to entry
§ Strong Management Team
o Experienced, proven track record in delivering revenue and ability to
execute, or
o A management team that can be complemented with our contacts and
team
§ Diversified Customer and Supplier base
§ Proprietary products or marketing position
Industry Characteristics
§ Non-cyclical
§ Services Consumer or niche market
§ Fragmented with potential for consolidation or growth
§ Emerging markets
Industries of Interest
§ Real Estate Services
§ Managed Security Services Providers (MSSP)
§ IT Solutions Providers specializing in security and network technology
products, services, and support
§ Internet
o Cloud Computing
o Security focused applications
Investment Criteria
5
§ Sales Volumes: $500 thousand to $30 million
§ Cash Flow: Neutral or positive
§ Structure: Controlled ownership. Closely held private company
§ Geography: North America Investment size: $1 million to $5 Million
§ Involvement: Board oversight
§ Controlling Interest: Acquire 100% of controlling interest in target
§ Marketing:
o Target captures a particular segment of the market
o Target has a focused strategic marketing plan.
These criteria are not intended to be exhaustive. Any evaluation relating to the
merits of a particular business combination will be based, to the extent relevant, on the
above factors as well as other considerations deemed relevant by our management in
effecting a business combination consistent with our business objective.
Diligence Process
Upon receipt of a business plan, the procedure is for management to review the
business plan and determine if it satisfies the Company’s acquisition criteria, and whether
the business plan should be rejected or pursued further. If the plan satisfies the
requirements, then Management meets with the target’s management to determine if there
is a synergy that can work and to explore the business plan in greater detail. Generally
this occurs over several meetings and can take some time. Depending on the nature of the
business, management may enlist certain technical or industry consultants to meet with
the target and provide feedback and analysis. Management will also review the target’s
financials. If the analysis suggests the target should be explored further Management will
present the opportunity to the BOD for approval to pursue the opportunity further. One or
two outside directors may meet with the target to make an independent assessment. If the
opportunity is approved for further exploration management will discuss potential
purchase structure with target’s management to be sure that a meeting of the minds exists
for a potential deal. At this point management will request that our investment banking
advisors give their opinion of the industry, the market and potential financing options of
the deal. Often, the investment bankers will meet with target’s management. The
investment banker’s feedback is presented to the board and, if positive, the Board
analyzes the proposed financing structure, discusses effects of a transaction on the
Company as they relate to taxes, capitalization, stock value etc., engaging the necessary
outside consultants. If all appears positive a letter of intent is negotiated and executed,
additional diligence is conducted, and definitive transaction documents are negotiated
and executed.
6
Evaluation of the Target’s Management
We would condition any acquisition on the commitment of management of the
target business to remain in place post closing. Following a business combination, we
may seek to recruit additional managers to supplement the incumbent management of the
target business. We cannot assure you that we will have the ability to recruit additional
managers, or that any such additional managers will have the requisite skills, knowledge
or experience necessary to enhance the incumbent management. Although we intend to
closely scrutinize the management of a prospective target business when evaluating the
desirability of effecting a business combination, we cannot assure you that our
assessment of the target business’s management will prove to be correct.
Competition
In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business, we may encounter
intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to ours. Many
of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and
effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors
possess greater technical, human and other resources than us and our financial resources
will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors, which
may limit our ability to compete in acquiring certain target businesses. This inherent
competitive limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of a target
business.
Companies Currently Under Review
We are constantly in the process of reviewing potential target companies.
Currently, we are not under contract to acquire any companies.
Our Partner Company
Gotham Innovation Lab Inc.
Products and Services
Gotham’s business is directed at providing media technology services to the real
estate community. The range of media services includes Real Estate Sales location
Photography,
the exclusive Gotham EXPO Full Screen Experience; Floorplan
Measurements, and Redraws and E-Brochures, Virtual Staging, Headshots, and HD
Video.
In 2012, Gotham launched its new offering ScreenPLAY. Gotham's ScreenPLAY
is a low cost tool that gets real estate agents listings on YouTube, Wellcomemat, and
other popular video platforms with enhanced visibility on Google quickly. Gotham has
also seen success in its Headshot events for real estate agents, Headshot events offer
professional headshots photo sessions on an individual or company wide basis. Gotham
7
also provides website development services, sales office technology and data interchange
services for many of the real estate firms in New York City.
When it comes to selling real estate every broker or seller listing has to have
pictures. Utilizing the latest technology Gotham’s service offerings provide a full listing
experience for real estate agents’ clients. Gotham service offerings allow brokers and
sellers to present their listings in the best possible light while giving the viewer control of
the show. Gotham’s services integrate images, photos, floor plans, video, virtual staging,
agent and key listing details in an engaging format that immerses the viewer.
All systems are built on accessible web platforms that integrate quickly and
seamlessly into the agent’s workflow.
In addition to natural expansion into the areas surrounding NYC, Gotham is
actively working to expand other geographic locations on the East Coast. Gotham has
already established a presence in Florida, covering the Miami to West Palm Beach area.
Competitive Comparison
Gotham competes with others in the industry by focusing on user interaction,
technology and delivery. Gotham maintains strict standards of photography and a roster
of accomplished photographers who we engage in between their premium assignments
such as fashion shoots, architectural projects, etc.
In addition to superior media, in the opinion of management, Gotham’s
technology tools set us apart from our competition. For example, our expo product
offering utilizes the pre-generation of a multitude of media sets to deliver images sized
perfectly for the users screen, wasting no bandwidth or file size, thereby enabling us to
maintain the speed and efficiency of the product at an optimal level. In the opinion of
management, a majority of our competitors either don’t seem to employ similar measures
in their full screen product offerings or do so, on a more limited basis.
Future Products and Services
Future offerings will include enhanced products that focus on social media
interaction, mobile applications and tools for realtors, as well as multi touch augmented
reality technologies for presentations, etc. Gotham will continue to expand its media
offerings, integrating with and adopting technologies as they become available.
Customers
Gotham currently has approximately 400 client accounts, including accounts
ranging from single agent accounts to large “master accounts” with large firms such as
Douglas Elliman and Halstead. Taking these and other master accounts into
consideration, Gotham does business with over 3,000 New York City real estate agents.
The following five customers constituted approximately 81% of the Company’s sales in
2013: EGR International, Inc. – approximately 24% of sales; Cambridge Who’s Who –
8
approximately 6% of sales; Douglas Elliman Real Estate, LLC – approximately 45% of
sales; Halstead Property Development Marketing LLC – approximately 3% of sales; and
Richard Caplan Photography – approximately 2% of sales. The loss of any of the
foregoing client accounts could have a material adverse affect on the Company’s
financial condition.
Expansion Summary
Gotham’s objective is to be a market leader in offering EXPO, Virtual Tours, and
Video, type services to the real estate industry. Gotham is currently providing services to
a number of realtors and brokers in the New York Metropolitan area including, but not
limited to, Douglas Elliman (“DE”), Corcoran, Trump among others. In addition to
natural expansion into the areas surrounding NYC such as Long Island, Gotham has
recently expanded into Florida, and is actively working to expand by further providing
services to large accounts that exist in both Manhattan and targeted secondary markets,
and through the selective hiring of one-off service providers who are currently operating
in other markets

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Digi-Data Corporation
On October 1, 2012, we filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the
District of Maryland, Baltimore Division, asserting claims against DigiData Corp.
("Defendant") for monetary damages arising from the Defendant's breach of contract
regarding that certain Asset Purchase Agreement dated February 26, 2006 among the
parties, and to enforce payment of outstanding contingency payments due to the
Company pursuant to said agreement.
On or about December 3, 2012, Digi-Data filed its Answer, Affirmative Defenses
and Counterclaim against iGambit. The Counterclaim seeks damages against iGambit for
breach of the Agreement for the alleged failure to indemnify Digi-Data for expenses
related to pending litigation between Verizon Communications, Inc. (one of Digi-Data's
customers) an unrelated third party, Titanide Ventures, LLC, concerning alleged patent
violations (hereinafter "Verizon Patent Litigation").
Upon information and belief, the Verizon Patent Litigation is a "patent troll"
whereby Titanide seeks to extract settlement funds from alleged patent infringers without
seeking actual adjudication of its purported patent rights. iGambit has advised Digi-Data
of what iGambit believes is "prior art" related to the subject intellectual properly that is
at-issue in the Verizon Patent Litigation, a possible defense to the claims by Titanide.
A pre-trial order was issued by the Court with detailed deadlines. E.g., discovery
cut-off and status report (4/29/13) and dispositive motions (5/28/13). iGambit
propounded its initial discovery upon Digi-Data, responses to which were due on or about
March 8, 2013.
On April 4, 2013, Digi-Data provided discovery to iGambit.
On April 4, 2013 an Order of Dismissal in the Verizon Patent Litigation was
filed. The Dismissal is with prejudice with each party to bear its own costs and fees.
On May 24, 2013 we filed a Motion for Summary Judgment with the Court
asking the Court to move in our favor against DDC for the entire outstanding balance due
10
along with attorney’s fees and post and pre-judgment interest as applicable under
Maryland Law.
On December 13, 2013 the Court Granted Summary Judgment in iGambit’s favor
against Digi-Data in the amount of $570,590, plus interest at the Maryland legal rate of
6% per annum from August 31, 2012, and post judgment interest at the Federal statutory
Rate. Furthermore, Digi-Data’s Counterclaim was dismissed.
On February 24, 2014 we entered into a Forbearance Agreement with Digi-Data
pursuant to which Digi-Data shall pay to iGambit Six Hundred Forty-Six Thousand, Six
Hundred Sixty-Eight Dollars and Sixty-Seven Cents ($646,668.67) (the “Settlement
Amount”) in full satisfaction of the Judgment based upon the following terms:
Initial Payment: Digi-Data shall pay the Settlement Amount by delivering
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($25,000.00) to iGambit upon the
execution of this Agreement (“Initial Payment”), and delivering the remaining Six
Hundred Twenty-One Thousand, Six Hundred Sixty-Eight Dollars and Sixty-Seven Cents
($621,668.67), plus interest at a rate of 6% per annum (calculated at Actual/360) (the
“Remaining Balance”) to iGambit.
Monthly Payments: Commencing thirty (30) calendar days after the Effective
Date, and continuing for the three following months, Digi-Data shall make monthly
payments of Twelve Thousand, Five Hundred Dollars and No Cents ($12,500.00) to
iGambit (each, an “Initial Monthly Payment”). Thirty (30) calendar days after the fourth
Initial Monthly Payment is made, Digi-Data shall commence making a monthly payment
of Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($25,000.00) to iGambit until the
Remaining Balance is paid in full (each, a “Subsequent Monthly Payment”). Such Initial
Monthly Payments and Subsequent Monthly Payments shall be credited to payment of
the Settlement Amount and Remaining Balance, with payment being first applied to
accrued and/or outstanding interests, then to principal.
Line of Credit Payments: In the event that Digi-Data obtains a new line of credit
subsequent to the Effective Date under terms acceptable to Digi-Data in the amount of
Three Million Dollars and No Cents ($3,000,000.00) or greater it shall, within fifteen
(15) calendar days upon obtaining such funding, pay the full Remaining Balance to
iGambit (the “LOC Payment”). In the event that Digi-Data obtains a new line of credit
subsequent to the Effective Date under terms acceptable to Digi-Data for any amount less
than Three Million Dollars and No Cents ($3,000,000.00) that is secured by its
receivables it shall, within fifteen (15) calendar days of obtaining such funding, pay
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($25,000.00) to iGambit (the “Receivables
Payment”). Such Receivables Payment shall be credited to payment of the Settlement
Amount and Remaining Balance, with payment being first applied to accrued and/or
outstanding interests, then to principal.
Digi-Data Sale: In the event of a Digi-Data Sale, iGambit shall be paid the
Remaining Balance at closing of any such Digi-Data Sale as provided in paragraph 2,
11
below. iGambit acknowledges that, if the Digi-Data Sale is a sale or sales of the Digi-
Data Assets, there may be insufficient proceeds to pay the Remaining Balance in full. If
the Digi-Data Sale is a sale or sales of the stock of Digi-Data and there are insufficient
proceeds at closing to pay the Remaining Balance in full, iGambit shall continue to
receive the Subsequent Monthly Payment until the full Remaining Balance is paid.
Allied Airbus, Inc.
On November 1, 2011, we commenced collection proceedings against Allied Airbus, Inc.
(“Allied”) for nonpayment of various promissory notes totaling $434,512 at December
31, 2011 in connection with a letter of intent the Company entered into to acquire the
assets and business of Allied, to which a definitive agreement could not be reached. The
claim against Allied included accrued interest at the rate of 6% per annum.
As a result of a settlement reached on June 12, 2012, we received payment of the total
balance, accrued interest and legal fees on June 27, 2012.
Financial Advisor Contract
Brooks, Houghton & Company, Inc. (BHC)
We entered into a contract with BHC in which BHC would provide financial advisory
services in connection with the Company’s proposed business combinations and related
fund raising transactions. As part of that agreement BHC would be entitled to a “Business
Combination Fee” equal to three percent of the amount of the company’s total proceeds
and other consideration paid or to be paid for the assets acquired, inclusive of equity or
any debt issued; however the fee was to be no less than $300,000. As a result of the IGX
transaction, BHC initially felt entitled to $300,000. We have taken a position that since
the transaction has been rescinded, that the fee is has not been earned and thus not to be
paid. While the ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable, it is the
opinion of management that the resolution of any outstanding claim will not have a
material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA
Not Required
14
ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Our management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results
of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. The preparation of financial statements may require us to make estimates and
assumptions that may affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the related
disclosures at the date of the financial statements. We do not currently have any estimates
or assumptions where the nature of the estimates or assumptions is material due to the
levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or
the susceptibility of such matters to change or the impact of the estimates and
assumptions on financial condition or operating performance is material, except as
described below.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, and amounts due to/from related parties, the
carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Additionally, there
are no assets or liabilities for which fair value is remeasured on a recurring basis.
Revenue Recognition
Our revenues from continuing operations consist of revenues derived primarily
from sales of products and services rendered to real estate brokers. We recognize
revenues when the services or products have been provided or delivered, the fees we
charge are fixed or determinable, we and our customers understand the specific nature
and terms of the agreed upon transactions, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Contingency payment income was recognized quarterly from a percentage of
Digi-Data’s vaulting service revenue, and is included in discontinued operations.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include checking
and money market accounts and any highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable
We analyze the collectability of accounts receivable from continuing operations
each accounting period and adjust our allowance for doubtful accounts accordingly. A
considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization of accounts
receivables, including the creditworthiness of each customer, current and historical
15
collection history and the related aging of past due balances. We evaluate specific
accounts when we become aware of information indicating that a customer may not be
able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its financial condition, lower
credit ratings, bankruptcy or other factors affecting the ability to render payment. No
reserve for bad debts was charged to operations for the year ended December 31, 2013.
Property and equipment and depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation for both financial
reporting and income tax purposes is computed using combinations of the straight line
and accelerated methods over the estimated lives of the respective assets. Computer
equipment is depreciated over 5 years and furniture and fixtures are depreciated over 7
years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. When property
and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is credited or
charged to income.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value
of the net assets acquired in a business combination, specifically the acquisition of Jekyll
by the Company’s subsidiary, Gotham. In accordance with ASC Topic No. 350
“Intangibles – Goodwill and Other”), the goodwill is not amortized, but instead is subject
to an annual assessment of impairment by applying a fair-value based test, and is
reviewed more frequently if current events and circumstances indicate a possible
impairment. If indicators of impairment are present and future cash flows are not
expected to be sufficient to recover the asset’s carrying amount, an impairment loss is
charged to expense in the period identified. A lack of projected future operating results
from Gotham’s operations may cause impairment. At December 31, 2012, we performed
an annual impairment study and determined that present and future cash flows are not
expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of goodwill. Based on our
evaluation of goodwill, an impairment of $111,026 was charged to operations during the
year ended December 31, 2012.
Stock-Based Compensation
We account for our stock-based awards granted under our employee
compensation plan in accordance with ASC Topic No. 718-20, Awards Classified as
Equity, which requires the measurement of compensation expense for all share-based
compensation granted to employees and non-employee directors at fair value on the date
of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the related service period for
awards expected to vest. We use the Black-Scholes option valuation model to estimate
the fair value of our stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes option valuation
model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock
price volatility of the Company’s common stock. Changes in these subjective input
assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate of our stock options and
warrants.
16
Income Taxes
We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance
with ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and
liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and tax bases
of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that are
expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
We apply the provisions of ASC Topic No. 740 for the financial statement
recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the
Company’s financial statements. In accordance with this provision, tax positions must
meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position.
Convertible Note
On September 16, 2013, the Company issued an 8% convertible note in the aggregate
principal amount of $103,500, convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock.
The Note, including accrued interest is due June 18, 2014 and is convertible any time
after 180 days at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at
55% of the average stock price of the lowest 3 closing bid prices during the 10 trading
day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date. Interest
expense on the convertible note of $2,405 was recorded for the year ended December 31,
2013.
Initially the Company had anticipated repaying the obligation prior to the effective date
of the holder electing to convert. Since the effective date of the election to convert has
passed the Company recorded a debt discount related to identified embedded derivatives
relating to conversion features and a reset provisions (see Note 7) based fair values as of
the inception date of the Note. The calculated debt discount equaled the face of the note
and is being amortized over the term of the note. During the year ended December 31,
2013, the Company amortized $40,250 of debt discount.
Derivative Liability
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company issued a convertible note.
The note is convertible into common stock, at the holders’ option, at a discount to the
market price of the Company’s common stock. The Company has identified embedded
derivatives included in these notes as a result of certain anti-dilutive (reset) provisions,
related to certain conversion features. The accounting treatment of derivative financial
instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the
inception date of the convertible note and debt discount amortization to fair value as of
each subsequent reporting date. This resulted in a fair value of derivative liability of
$152,076 in which to the extent of the face value of convertible note was treated as debt
discount with the remainder treated as interest expense.
17
The fair value of the embedded derivatives at December 31, 2013, in the amount of
$152,076, was determined using the Binomial Option Pricing Model based on the
following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%; (2) expected volatility of 243.00%, (3)
weighted average risk-free interest rate of 0.09%, (4) expected lives of 0.72 to 0.75 years,
and (5) estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock of $0.51 per share. The
Company recorded interest expense from the excess of the derivative liability over the
convertible note of $48,576 during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Based upon ASC 840-15-25 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraph 11) the Company has adopted
a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to its outstanding
convertible note. Pursuant to the sequencing approach, the Company evaluates its
contracts based upon earliest issuance date.
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Introduction
iGambit is a company focused on the technology markets. Our sole operating
subsidiary, Gotham Innovation Lab, Inc., is in the business of providing media
technology services to the real estate industry. During the years ended December 31,
2013 and December 31, 2012 Gotham produced approximately $1,460,923 and
$1,528,822 of revenue, respectively. We are focused on expanding the operations of
Gotham by marketing the company to existing and potential new clients. In addition to
Gotham’s operations, we earned $260 and $65,064 in technical consulting fees, other
income of $755,000 from the IGX Rescission and $30,000, and income from
discontinued operations of $317,625 and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and
December 31, 2012, respectively.
Year Ended December 31, 2013 as Compared to Year Ended December 31, 2012
Assets. At December 31, 2013, we had $1,050,746 in current assets and
$1,071,342 in total assets, compared to $716,829 in current assets and $745,919 in total
assets as of December 31, 2012. The increase in total assets was primarily due to an
increase in assets from discontinued operations as a result of reversing the bad debt
allowance for the DDC Judgment and the receivable due from the IGX Rescission
Agreement.
Liabilities. At December 31, 2013, we had total liabilities of $515,155 compared
to $440,221 at December 31, 2012. Our total liabilities at December 31, 2013 consisted
of accounts payable of $316,566, a convertible note payable of $40.250, a derivative
liability for certain provisions of the convertible note of $152,076 and a note to a related
party of $6,263, whereas our total liabilities as of December 31, 2012 consisted of
accounts payable of $433,958, and a note to a related party of $6,263. The increase in
liabilities was primarily due to a derivative liability recorded for the issuance of a
convertible note payable to an unrelated party. We do not have any long term liabilities.
18
Stockholders’ Equity. Our Stockholders’ Equity increased to $556,187 at
December 31, 2013 from $305,698 at December 31, 2012. This increase was due to a
decrease in accumulated deficit from $(2,448,346) at December 31, 2012 to $(2,197,857)
at December 31, 2013 resulting from net income of $250,489 for the year ended
December 31, 2013 compared to net losses of $(1,623,895) for the year ended December
31, 2012.
Revenue and Net Income. We had revenue of $1,461,183 for the year ended
December 31, 2013, compared to revenue of $1,593,886 for the year ended December 31,
2012. The decrease in revenue was due primarily to a decrease in revenue generated by
our Gotham subsidiary as result of transitioning out our customer technical services
division and focusing more on the real estate photography division. In addition to
Gotham’s operations, we earned $260 and $65,064 in technical consulting fees, other
income of $755,000 and $30,000 , and income from discontinued operations of $317,625
and $0 for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Our net income was $250,489 for the year ended December 31, 2013, compared to a net
loss of $(1,623,895) for the year ended December 31, 2012. Therefore net income
resulted from a decrease in our cost of goods sold for the year ended December 31, 2013
due to a decrease in the cost of the outsourced photography vendors utilized by Gotham,
other income from the IGX Rescission Agreement and income from discontinued
operations as a result of the DDC Judgment Award.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and Administrative Expenses
decreased to $1,692,556 for the year ended December 31, 2013 from $2,383,568 for the
year ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended December 31, 2013 our General and
Administrative Expenses consisted of corporate administrative expenses of $269,596,
legal and accounting fees of $153,113, payroll expenses of $1,082,212, Directors and
Officers Insurance of $40,381, employee benefits expenses of $117,079 (medical, dental,
retirement plan, and life insurance), and business advisory fees, commissions and
expenses primarily associated with the IGX purchase and rescission transaction, of
$30,175. For the year ended December 31, 2012 our General and Administrative
Expenses consisted of corporate administrative expenses of $456,097, legal and
accounting fees of $184,848 consulting fees of $45,660, payroll expenses of $1,161,861,
Directors and Officers Insurance of $37,076, goodwill impairment expense of $111,026
and business advisory fees, commissions and expenses associated with the IGX purchase
and rescission transaction, of $387,000. Therefore the decreases from the year ended
December 31, 2012 to the year ended December 31, 2013 relate primarily to a decrease in
payroll and corporate administrative expenses. In the event the company effectuates an
acquisition in 2014 we anticipate additional professional fees associated with the
acquisition.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, at December
31, 2013, we had $26,870 of cash and stockholders’ equity of $556,187. At December
31, 2012, we had $104,721 of cash and stockholders’ equity of $305,698.
19
Our primary capital requirements in 2014 are likely to arise from the expansion of
our Gotham operations, and, in the event we effectuate an acquisition, from: (i) the
amount of the purchase price payable in cash at closing, if any; (ii) professional fees
associated with the negotiation, structuring, and closing of the transaction; and (iii) post
closing costs. It is not possible to quantify those costs at this point in time, in that they
depend on Gotham’s business opportunities, the state of the overall economy, the relative
size of any target company we identify and the complexity of the related acquisition
transaction(s). We anticipate raising capital in the private markets to cover any such
costs, though there can be no guaranty we will be able to do so on terms we deem to be
acceptable. We do not have any plans at this point in time to obtain a line of credit or
other loan facility from a commercial bank.
While we believe in the viability of our strategy to improve Gotham’s sales
volume and to acquire companies, and in our ability to raise additional funds, there can
be no assurances that we will be able to fully effectuate our business plan.
We believe we will continue to increase our cash position and liquidity for the
foreseeable future. We believe we have enough capital to fund our present operations.
Cash Flow Activity
Net cash used by operating activities was $183,151 for the year ended December
31, 2013, compared to net cash used by operating activities of $518,687 for the year
ended December 31, 2012. Our primary source of operating cash flows from continuing
operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2013 was from our Gotham
subsidiary’s revenues of $1,461,183, and $1,528,822 for the year ending December 31,
2012. Additional contributing factors to the change were from a decrease in accounts
receivable of $23,149, a decrease in prepaid expenses of $122,487 and a decrease in
accounts payable of $117,392. Net cash provided by discontinued operating activities
was $0 for the year ended December 31, 2013 and cash provided by discontinued
operating activities was $250,000 for the ended December 31, 2012. For the year ended
December 31, 2012 we received $250,000 in cash payments from DDC which was offset
by a decrease in accounts receivable included in the Assets from Discontinued
Operations.
Cash provided by continuing investing activities was $1,800 and $417,735
respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. For the
year ended December 31, 2013 the entire source of cash provided by investing activities
was a decrease in deposits. For the year ended December 31, 2012 the primary source of
cash provided by investing activities was from the repayment of notes receivable due
from Allied Airbus Inc.
Cash provided by financing activities was $103,500 for the year ended December
31, 2013 compared to cash used by financing activities of $19,127 for the year ended
December 31, 2012. The cash flows provided by financing activities for the year ended
December 31, 2013 was from the issuance of a Convertible note payable to at an
20
unrelated party.
The cash flows used by financing activities for the year ended
December 31, 2012 was from a repayment of loans payable to a related party.
Supplemental Cash Flow Activity
In the year ended December 31, 2013 the company paid interest of $3,524
compared to interest of $1,884 in the year ended December 31, 2012.
OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We have no off balance-sheet arrangements.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We carried out an evaluation, as required by paragraph (b) of Rule 13a-15 and
15d-15 of the Exchange Act under the supervision and with the participation of our
21
management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act as of December 31, 2013. Based upon that evaluation,
our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure
controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2013.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
We are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control
over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-
15(f) and Rule 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by,
or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer (our principal executive officer)
and Chief Financial Officer (our principal accounting and financial officer), and effected
by our board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable
assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial
statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and
procedures that:
§ Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and
fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
§ Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and
our directors; and
§ Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a
material effect on the financial statements.
Our internal control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance to our
management and board of directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of
published financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over
financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may
become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2013. In making this assessment,
management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control — Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
(COSO). Based on management’s assessment, we concluded that, as of December 31,
2013, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.
22
Change in Internal Controls
During the quarter ended December 31, 2013, there were no changes in our
internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely
to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
iGambit, Inc.
Smithtown, New York
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of iGambit, Inc. (the
Company) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements
of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in
the two-year period ended December 31, 2013. The Company’s management is
responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to
have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial
reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as
a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not
for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2013
and 2012, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the
two-year period ended December 31, 2013 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years Ended December 31, 2013 and 2012
Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements presented are those of iGambit Inc., (the
“Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gotham Innovation Lab Inc. (“Gotham”).
The Company was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on April 13,
2000. The Company was originally incorporated as Compusations Inc. under the laws of
the State of New York on October 2, 1996. The Company changed its name to
BigVault.com Inc. upon changing its state of domicile on April 13, 2000. The Company
changed its name again to bigVault Storage Technologies Inc. on December 21, 2000
before changing to iGambit Inc. on April 5, 2006. Gotham was incorporated under the
laws of the state of New York on September 23, 2009. The Company is a holding
company which seeks out acquisitions of operating companies in technology markets.
Gotham is in the business of providing media technology services to real estate agents
and brokers in the New York metropolitan area.
Note 2 –Discontinued Operations
Sale of Business
On February 28, 2006, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement with Digi-
Data Corporation (“Digi-Data”), whereby Digi-Data acquired the Company’s assets and
its online digital vaulting business operations in exchange for $1,500,000, which was
deposited into an escrow account for payment of the Company’s outstanding liabilities.
In addition, as part of the sales agreement, the Company received payments from Digi-
Data based on 10% of the net vaulting revenue payable quarterly over five years. The
Company was also entitled to an additional 5% of the increase in net vaulting revenue
over the prior year’s revenue. These adjustments to the sales price were included in the
discontinued operations line of the statements of operations for the year ended December
31, 2011, the last year of payments.
The assets of the discontinued operations are presented in the balance sheets under the
captions “Assets from discontinued operations”. The underlying assets of the
discontinued operations consist of accounts receivable of $570,590 and $320,590 as of
December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively, and of accrued interest
receivable of $67,625 as of December 31, 2013.
Accounts Receivable
Assets from discontinued operations, net includes accounts receivable which represents
50% of contingency payments earned for the previous quarters. The reserve for bad debts
of $250,000 charged to operations in 2010 was reversed in connection with the Summary
Judgment and Forbearance Agreement described in Note 11. Also included is accrued
interest receivable of $67,625 recorded for interest granted on the balance due from Digi-
data through December 31, 2013.

Note 3 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiary, Gotham Innovation Lab, Inc. All intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, and amounts due to related parties, the carrying
amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. Additionally, there are no
assets or liabilities for which fair value is remeasured on a recurring basis.
Revenue Recognition
The Company’s revenues are derived primarily from the sale of products and services
rendered to real estate brokers. The Company recognizes revenues when the services or
products have been provided or delivered, the fees charged are fixed or determinable, the
Company and its customers understand the specific nature and terms of the agreed upon
transactions, and collectability is reasonably assured.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs for the years
ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 were $5,786 and $26,439, respectively.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include checking and
money market accounts and any highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity
of three months or less.
Accounts Receivable
The Company analyzes the collectability of accounts receivable from continuing
operations each accounting period and adjusts its allowance for doubtful accounts
accordingly. A considerable amount of judgment is required in assessing the realization
F-9
of accounts receivables, including the creditworthiness of each customer, current and
historical collection history and the related aging of past due balances. The Company
evaluates specific accounts when it becomes aware of information indicating that a
customer may not be able to meet its financial obligations due to deterioration of its
financial condition, lower credit ratings, bankruptcy or other factors affecting the ability
to render payment. Allowance for doubtful accounts was $17,865 and $37,954 at
December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. There was no bad debt expense charged to
operations for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Property and equipment and depreciation
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation for both financial reporting and
income tax purposes is computed using combinations of the straight line and accelerated
methods over the estimated lives of the respective assets. Computer equipment is
depreciated over 5 years and furniture and fixtures are depreciated over 7 years.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. When property and
equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated
depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss is credited or
charged to income.
Depreciation expense of $6,694 and$8,750was charged to operations for the years ended
December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the aggregate purchase price over the fair value of the
net assets acquired in a business combination, specifically the acquisition of Jekyll by the
Company’s subsidiary, Gotham. In accordance with ASC Topic No. 350 “Intangibles –
Goodwill and Other”, goodwill is not amortized, but instead is subject to an annual
assessment of impairment by applying a fair-value based test, and is reviewed more
frequently if current events and circumstances indicate a possible impairment. If
indicators of impairment are present and future cash flows are not expected to be
sufficient to recover the asset’s carrying amount, an impairment loss is charged to
expense in the period identified. At December 31, 2012, the Company performed its
annual impairment study and determined that present and future cash flows were not
expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying amount of goodwill, and the goodwill
was written off.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for its stock-based awards granted under its employee
compensation plan in accordance with ASC Topic No. 718-20, Awards Classified as
Equity, which requires the measurement of compensation expense for all share-based
compensation granted to employees and non-employee directors at fair value on the date
of grant and recognition of compensation expense over the related service period for
awards expected to vest. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to
estimate the fair value of its stock options and warrants. The Black-Scholes option
F-10
pricing model requires the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected
stock price volatility of the Company’s common stock, the risk free interest rate at the
date of grant, the expected vesting term of the grant, expected dividends, and an
assumption related to forfeitures of such grants. Changes in these subjective input
assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate of the Company’s stock options
and warrants.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in
accordance with ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred tax
assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between financial reporting and
tax bases of assets and liabilities, and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws
that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse.
The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic No. 740 for the financial statement
recognition, measurement and disclosure of uncertain tax positions recognized in the
Company’s financial statements. In accordance with this provision, tax positions must
meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the
financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has reviewed recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in
order to determine their effects, if any, on its results of operations, financial position or
cash flows. Based on that review, the Company believes that none of these
pronouncements will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.
Note 4 – Earnings Per Common Share
The Company calculates net earnings (loss) per common share in accordance with ASC
260 “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”). Basic and diluted net earnings (loss) per
common share was determined by dividing net earnings (loss) applicable to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the
period. The Company’s potentially dilutive shares, which include outstanding common
stock options and common stock warrants, have not been included in the computation of
diluted net earnings (loss) per share for all periods as the result would be anti-dilutive.

Note 5–Stock Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense for all stock-based award programs, including grants
of stock options and warrants, is recorded in accordance with "Compensation—Stock
Compensation", Topic 718 of the FASB ASC. Stock-based compensation expense, which
is calculated net of estimated forfeitures, is computed using the grant date fair-value and
amortized over the requisite service period for all stock awards that are expected to vest.
The grant date fair value for stock options and warrants is calculated using the Black-
Scholes option pricing model. Determining the fair value of options at the grant date
requires judgment, including estimating the expected term that stock options will be
outstanding prior to exercise, the associated volatility of the Company’s common stock,
expected dividends, and a risk-free interest rate. Stock-based compensation expense is
reported under general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations.
Options
In 2006, the Company adopted the 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "2006 Plan").
Awards granted under the 2006 Plan have a ten-year term and may be incentive stock
options, non-qualified stock options or warrants. The awards are granted at an exercise
price equal to the fair market value on the date of grant and generally vest over a three or
four year period. The Plan expired on December 31, 2009, therefore as of December 31,
2013, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based
compensation arrangements granted under the 2006 plan.
The 2006 Plan provided for the granting of options to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares
of common stock. 8,146,900 options have been issued under the plan to date of which
7,157,038 have been exercised and 692,962 have expired to date. There were 296,900
options outstanding under the 2006 Plan on its expiration date of December 31, 2009. All
options issued subsequent to this date were not issued pursuant to any plan.

Note 6 – Convertible Note Payable
On September 16, 2013, the Company issued an 8% convertible note in the aggregate
principal amount of $103,500, convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock.
The Note, including accrued interest is due June 18, 2014 and is convertible any time
after 180 days at the option of the holder into shares of the Company’s common stock at
55% of the average stock price of the lowest 3 closing bid prices during the 10 trading
day period ending on the latest complete trading day prior to the conversion date. Interest
expense on the convertible note of $2,405 was recorded for the year ended December 31,
2013.
Initially the Company had anticipated repaying the obligation prior to the effective date
of the holder electing to convert. Since the effective date of the election to convert has
passed the Company recorded a debt discount related to identified embedded derivatives
relating to conversion features and a reset provisions (see Note 7) based fair values as of
the inception date of the Note. The calculated debt discount equaled the face of the note
F-14
and is being amortized over the term of the note. During the year ended December 31,
2013, the Company amortized $40,250 of debt discount.
Note7 - Derivative Liability
Convertible Note
During the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company issued a convertible note (see
Note 6 above).
The note is convertible into common stock, at the holders’ option, at a discount to the
market price of the Company’s common stock. The Company has identified embedded
derivatives included in these notes as a result of certain anti-dilutive (reset) provisions,
related to certain conversion features. The accounting treatment of derivative financial
instruments requires that the Company record the fair value of the derivatives as of the
inception date of the convertible note and debt discount amortization to fair value as of
each subsequent reporting date. This resulted in a fair value of derivative liability of
$152,076 in which to the extent of the face value of convertible note was treated as debt
discount with the remainder treated as interest expense.
The fair value of the embedded derivatives at December 31, 2013, in the amount of
$152,076, was determined using the Binomial Option Pricing Model based on the
following assumptions: (1) dividend yield of 0%; (2) expected volatility of 243.00%, (3)
weighted average risk-free interest rate of 0.09%, (4) expected lives of 0.72 to 0.75 years,
and (5) estimated fair value of the Company’s common stock of $0.51 per share. The
Company recorded interest expense from the excess of the derivative liability over the
convertible note of $48,576 during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Based upon ASC 840-15-25 (EITF Issue 00-19, paragraph 11) the Company has adopted
a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to its outstanding
convertible note. Pursuant to the sequencing approach, the Company evaluates its
contracts based upon earliest issuance date.
Note 8 - Income Taxes
The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 740, Income Taxes
(“ASC 740”) which requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the
expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial
statements or tax returns. Under such method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective
tax bases using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are
expected to reverse. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending on
the classification of the assets and liabilities to which they relate.
The income tax provision (benefit) at December 31 consists of the following:

carryforwards of approximately $1.3 million and $3.1 million, respectively, which expire
at various dates from 2023 through 2033. These net operating loss carryforwards may be
used to offset future taxable income and thereby reduce the Company’s U.S. federal and
state income taxes.
In accordance with ASC 740, a valuation allowance must be established if it is more
likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized. This assessment is based
upon consideration of available positive and negative evidence, which includes, among
other things, the Company’s most recent results of operations and expected future
profitability. Based on the Company’s cumulative losses in recent years, a full valuation
allowance against the Company’s deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2012 has been
established as Management believes that the Company will not realize the benefit of
those deferred tax assets.
The Company complies with the provisions of ASC 740-10 in accounting for its
uncertain tax positions. ASC 740-10 addresses the determination of whether tax benefits
claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial
statements. Under ASC 740-10, the Company may recognize the tax benefit from an
uncertain tax position only if it is more likely that not that the tax position will be
sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the
position. Management has determined that the Company has no significant uncertain tax
positions requiring recognition under ASC 740-10.
The Company is subject to income tax in the U.S., and certain state jurisdictions. The
Company has not been audited by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or any states in
connection with income taxes. The Company’s tax years generally remain open to
examination for all federal and state income tax matters until its net operating loss
carryforwards are utilized and the applicable statutes of limitation have expired. The
federal and state tax authorities can generally reduce a net operating loss (but not create
taxable income) for a period outside the statute of limitations in order to determine the
correct amount of net operating loss which may be allowed as a deduction against income
for a period within the statute of limitations.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits, if
incurred, as a component of income tax expense.

Note 9 -Retirement Plan
Gotham has adopted the Gotham Innovation Lab, Inc. SIMPLE IRA Plan, which covers
substantially all employees. Participating employees may elect to contribute, on a tax-
deferred basis, a portion of their compensation in accordance with Section 408 (a) of the

were $14,572 and$8,714, respectively.
Note 10 – Concentrations and Credit Risk
Sales and Accounts Receivable
Gotham had sales to two customers which accounted for approximately 45% and 24%,
respectively of Gotham’s total sales for the year ended December 31, 2013. One
customer accounted for approximately 53% of accounts receivable at December 31,
2013.
Gotham had sales to three customers which accounted for approximately 42%, 15% and
10%, respectively of Gotham’s total sales for the year ended December 31, 2012. Two of
the customers accounted for approximately 43% and 14%, respectively of accounts
receivable at December 31, 2012.
Cash
Cash is maintained at a major financial institution and, at times, balances may exceed
federally insured limits. The Company has never experienced any losses related to these
balances. All of the Company’s non-interest bearing cash balances were fully insured at
December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the Company had no amounts of cash or
cash equivalents in financial institutions in excess of amounts insured by agencies of the
U.S. Government, the limit of which is $250,000. The Company did not have any
interest-bearing accounts at December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
Note 11 - Fair Value Measurement
The Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic
825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”) on January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10 defines
fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or
permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most
advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market
participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer
restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy
that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of
F-18
unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of
inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
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 with insufficient volume or infrequent
transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant
inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable
market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the
measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.
All items required to be recorded or measured on a recurring basis consist of derivative
liabilities and are based upon level 3 inputs.
To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or
unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In
certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the
fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level is the fair value
hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based
on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Upon adoption of ASC 825-10, there was no cumulative effect adjustment to beginning
retained earnings and no impact on the financial statements.
The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible note payable), and other
current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not have any items that would be
classified as level 1 or 2 disclosures.
The Company recognizes its derivative liabilities as level 3 and values its derivatives
using the methods discussed in Note 7. While the Company believes that its valuation
methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, it recognizes that
the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain
financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting
date. The primary assumptions that would significantly affect the fair values using the
methods discussed in Note 7 are that of volatility and market price of the underlying
common stock of the Company.
As of December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not have any derivative
instruments that were designated as hedges.
F-19
The derivative liability as of December 31, 2013, in the amount of $152,076 has a level 3
classification. Further, there were no changes in fair value of the Company’s level 3
financial liabilities during the year ended December 31, 2013.
Fluctuations in the Company’s stock price are a primary driver for the changes in the
derivative valuations during each reporting period. As the stock price decreases for each
of the related derivative instruments, the value to the holder of the instrument generally
decreases, therefore decreasing the liability on the Company’s balance sheet.
Additionally, stock price volatility is one of the significant unobservable inputs used in
the fair value measurement of each of the Company’s derivative instruments. The
simulated fair value of these liabilities is sensitive to changes in the Company’s expected
volatility. A 10% change in pricing inputs and changes in volatilities and correlation
factors would currently not result in a material change in value for the level 3 financial
liability.
Note 12 - Related Party Transactions
Note Payable – Related Party
Gotham was provided a loan from an entity that is controlled by the officers of Gotham,
such amounts outstanding were $6,263 at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

Litigation
Digi-Data Corporation
In connection with the asset purchase agreement discussed in Note 2, the Company filed
a complaint against Digi-Data on October 1, 2012 for unpaid contingency payments
owed to the Company totaling $570,590 at December 31, 2013, exclusive of an
allowance for bad debts of $250,000. On or about December 3, 2012, Digi-Data filed its
Answer, Affirmative Defenses and Counterclaim against the Company. The
Counterclaim seeks damages against the Company for breach of the Agreement for the
alleged failure to indemnify Digi-Data for expenses related to pending litigation between
Verizon Communications, Inc. (one of Digi-Data's customers) and an unrelated third
party, Titanide Ventures, LLC, concerning alleged patent violations (hereinafter "Verizon
Patent Litigation").The Verizon Patent Litigation is a result of a "patent troll" whereby
Titanide seeks to extract settlement funds from alleged patent infringers without seeking
actual adjudication of its purported patent rights. The Company has advised Digi-Data of
what it believes is "prior act" related to the subject intellectual property that is at-issue in
the Verizon Patent Litigation, a possible defense to the claims by Titanide. A pre-trial
order was issued by the Court with detailed deadlines regarding among other items,
discovery cut-off and status report deadline date of April 29, 2013 and dispositive
motions deadline date of May 28, 2013. The Company propounded its initial discovery
upon Digi-Data, responses to which were due on or about March 8, 2013. On April 4,
2013, Digi-Data provided discovery to the On April 4, 2013, an Order of Dismissal in
the Verizon Patent Litigation was filed. The Dismissal is with prejudice with each party
to bear its own costs and fees. On May 24, 2013, the Company filed a Motion for
Summary Judgment with the Court asking the Court to move in its favor against DDC for
the entire outstanding balance due along with attorney’s fees and post and pre-judgment
interest as applicable under Maryland Law. On June 11, 2013, Digi-Data filed its
Response to the Motion for Summary Judgment and, for the first time, purported to
liquidate certain alleged damages for which Digi-Data seeks a set-off against the amounts
admittedly owed by Digi-Data to iGambit and alludes the existence of additional
although not yet quantified damages. The Response relies entirely upon the Affidavit of
a Vice President of Digi-Data for its evidentiary support. Notwithstanding, Digi-Data
failed to produce documentary support for its alleged damages and to explain why it
failed to disclose such information during the discovery period or thereafter.
On July 9, 2013, the Company filed its Reply to Digi-Data’s Response and, thereby,
advised the Court of Digi-Data’s apparent litigation-by-ambush tactic such as
withholding allegations of damages until the end of discovery and attempting to use such
previously withheld information to defeat summary judgment, and the legal inadequacy
F-21
of same. Pursuant to the Maryland District Court’s Local Rules, Digi-Data is not
authorized to file a Surreply without Court order.
On December 13, 2013 the Court Granted Summary Judgment in iGambit’s favor
against Digi-Data in the amount of $570,590, plus interest at the Maryland legal rate of
6% per annum from August 31, 2012, and post judgment interest at the Federal statutory
Rate. Furthermore, Digi-Data’s Counterclaim was dismissed.
On February 24, 2014 the Company entered into a Forbearance Agreement with Digi-
Data pursuant to which Digi-Data shall pay to iGambit Six Hundred Forty-Six
Thousand, Six Hundred Sixty-Eight Dollars and Sixty-Seven Cents ($646,668.67) (the
“Settlement Amount”) in full satisfaction of the Judgment.
Initial Payment: Digi-Data shall pay the Settlement Amount by delivering Twenty-Five
Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($25,000.00) to iGambit upon the execution of this
Agreement (“Initial Payment”), and delivering the remaining Six Hundred Twenty-One
Thousand, Six Hundred Sixty-Eight Dollars and Sixty-Seven Cents ($621,668.67), plus
interest at a rate of 6% per annum (calculated at Actual/360) (the “Remaining Balance”)
to iGambit.
Monthly Payments: Commencing thirty (30) calendar days after the Effective Date, and
continuing for the three following months, Digi-Data shall make monthly payments of
Twelve Thousand, Five Hundred Dollars and No Cents ($12,500.00) to iGambit (each, an
“Initial Monthly Payment”). Thirty (30) calendar days after the fourth Initial Monthly
Payment is made, Digi-Data shall commence making a monthly payment of Twenty-Five
Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($25,000.00) to iGambit until the Remaining Balance is
paid in full (each, a “Subsequent Monthly Payment”). Such Initial Monthly Payments
and Subsequent Monthly Payments shall be credited to payment of the Settlement
Amount and Remaining Balance, with payment being first applied to accrued and/or
outstanding interests, then to principal.
Line of Credit Payments: In the event that Digi-Data obtains a new line of credit
subsequent to the Effective Date under terms acceptable to Digi-Data in the amount of
Three Million Dollars and No Cents ($3,000,000.00) or greater it shall, within fifteen
(15) calendar days upon obtaining such funding, pay the full Remaining Balance to
iGambit (the “LOC Payment”). In the event that Digi-Data obtains a new line of credit
subsequent to the Effective Date under terms acceptable to Digi-Data for any amount less
than Three Million Dollars and No Cents ($3,000,000.00) that is secured by its
receivables it shall, within fifteen (15) calendar days of obtaining such funding, pay
Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($25,000.00) to iGambit (the “Receivables
Payment”). Such Receivables Payment shall be credited to payment of the Settlement
Amount and Remaining Balance, with payment being first applied to accrued and/or
outstanding interests, then to principal.
Digi-Data Sale: In the event of a Digi-Data Sale, iGambit shall be paid the Remaining
Balance at closing of any such Digi-Data Sale as provided in paragraph 2, below.
iGambit acknowledges that, if the Digi-Data Sale is a sale or sales of the Digi-Data
F-22
Assets, there may be insufficient proceeds to pay the Remaining Balance in full. If the
Digi-Data Sale is a sale or sales of the stock of Digi-Data and there are insufficient
proceeds at closing to pay the Remaining Balance in full, iGambit shall continue to
receive the Subsequent Monthly Payment until the full Remaining Balance is paid.
Allied Airbus, Inc.
On November 1, 2011, the Company commenced collection proceedings against Allied
Airbus, Inc. (“Allied”) for nonpayment of various promissory notes totaling $434,512 at
December 31, 2011 in connection with a letter of intent the Company entered into to
acquire the assets and business of Allied, to which a definitive agreement could not be
reached. The claim against Allied included accrued interest at the rate of 6% per annum.
As a result of a settlement reached on June 12, 2012, the Company received payment of
the total balance, accrued interest and legal fees on June 27, 2012.
Financial Advisor Contract
Brooks, Houghton & Company, Inc. (BHC)
The Company had entered into a contract with BHC in which BHC would provide
financial advisory services in connection with the Company’s proposed business
combinations and related fund raising transactions. As part of that agreement BHC would
be entitled to a “Business Combination Fee” equal to three percent of the amount of the
company’s total proceeds and other consideration paid or to be paid for the assets
acquired, inclusive of equity or any debt issued; however the fee was to be no less than
$300,000. As a result of the IGX transaction, as described in Note 12, BHC initially felt
entitled to $300,000. The Company has taken a position that since the transaction has
been rescinded, that the fee is has not been earned and thus not to be paid. While the
ultimate outcome of this matter is not presently determinable, it is the opinion of
management that the resolution of any outstanding claim will not have a material adverse
effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company.
Note 14 – Rescission of Purchase Agreement for Acquisition of IGX Global Inc. and
IGX Global UK Limited
On April 8, 2013, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, IGXGLOBAL,
CORP.entered into, and became obligated under, a transaction to rescind the Company’s
purchase agreement dated December 28, 2012 (the “Purchase Agreement”) with IGX
Global Inc.(“IGXUS”), IGX Global UK Limited (“IGXUK”) and Tomas Duffy
(“DUFFY”) the sole shareholder of both IGXUK and IGXUS.
Under the Purchase Agreement, the Company intended to purchase,as of December 31,
2012, substantially all of the assets of IGXUS and all of the issued and outstanding shares
of IGXUK and thereby the acquired business operated by IGXUS and IGXUK (the
“Acquired Business”). The original agreement called for a $500,000 payment at closing,
a $1,000,000 Promissory Note, assumption of certain liabilities of the IGXUS up to
F-23
$2,500,000 and 3.75 million shares of iGambit stock to be earned over a three year period
based upon certain revenue and earnings targets. The Company had arranged financing at
the original effective date of the purchase to pay the $500,000 payment and payoff
certain liabilities of IGXUS.
On April 8, 2013, under the terms of a Rescission Agreement, the Company, IGXUS,
IGXUK and Duffy (IGX), agreed to unwind the Purchase Agreement in its entirety and to
fully restore each to the positions they were respectively prior to entering into the
Purchase Agreement. This included IGX obtaining financing to payoff the entire balance
of the financing the Company had obtained to fund the upfront payment and certain
liabilities at the original closing date; IGX also assumed and paid certain expenses related
to the purchase. Also as consideration for iGambit’s expenses and inconvenience, the
Company received $130,000 prior to the effective date of the rescission from IGX, and
upon the effective date of the rescission, an additional payment of $275,000, and will
receive an additional $350,000 payable in equal monthly installments over 18 months.
The consideration from IGX totaling $755,000 is reported as Other Income in the
Statements of Operations. The balance due from IGX was $239,779 at December 31,
2013.
