Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2015

(Unaudited)

 

1.     Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

 

Mobetize, Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 23, 2012 under the name Slavia, Corp. The Company plans to offer mobile banking technologies and service.

 

The Company’s activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need to secure additional funding to operationalize the Company’s current technology before another company develops competitive products.

 

On September 4, 2013, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Mobetize, Inc. (“Mobetize”), a private corporation formed under the state of Nevada on March 14, 2012. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company acquired the net assets of Mobetize in exchange for 22,003,000 common shares of the Company. After the close of the share exchange agreement, there were 26,633,000 common shares outstanding and the former shareholders of Mobetize controlled approximately 84% of the total issued and outstanding common shares of the Company including 500,000 common shares held by the President and Director of Mobetize, which were acquired in a private transaction prior to the share exchange agreement.

 

Going Concern

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $4,968,862 and a history of net losses and cash used in operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing, and generating profitable operations from the Company’s future operations. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

2.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

a)Basis of Presentation

 

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) and are expressed in U.S. dollars. The Company is a development stage company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 2014–10–Topic–915, Development Stage Entities (note 2q). The Company’s fiscal year end is March 31.

 

b)Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

  Page 7
 

 

The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts receivable, valuation of intangible assets, fair value of stock-based compensation, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

 

c)Financial Statements

 

These financial statements have been prepared in the opinion of management to reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods shown. The results of operations for such periods are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year or for any future period.

 

d)Cash

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

e)Accounts Receivable

 

The Company evaluates the collectability of accounts receivable based on the age of receivable balances and customer credit-worthiness. If the Company determines that financial conditions of its customers have deteriorated, an allowance for doubtful accounts may be made or the accounts receivable written off if all collection attempts have failed.

 

f)Prepaid Expenses

 

The Company pays for some services in advance and recognizes these expenses as prepaid at the balance sheet date. Prepaid expenses are carried at fair value which is deemed to be the gross value of the pre-payment due to the short-term maturity of these payments. If certain prepaid expenses extend beyond one-year, those are classified as non-current assets.

 

g)Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue from licensing and professional fees. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

h)Property and Equipment

 

Property and equipment is accounted for at cost less accumulated amortization and includes computer equipment and office furniture. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are five years.

 

  Page 8
 

 

i)Research and Development Costs

 

The Company incurs research and development costs during the course of its operations. The costs are expensed except in cases where development costs meet certain identifiable criteria for capitalization. Capitalized development costs are amortized over the life of the related commercial production.

 

j)Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.

 

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of determining fair value. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviours. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of consolidated comprehensive loss over the requisite service period.

 

Options granted to consultants are valued at the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or the fair value of the services received, whichever is more reliably measureable.

 

k)Income Taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are measured based on the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are included in the Company’s tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize penalties and interest, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as general and administrative expense.

 

l)Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share

 

The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share. ASC 260 requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has 2,693,697 (2014 – 1,206,858) potentially dilutive shares.

 

  Page 9
 

 

m)Comprehensive Loss

 

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements.

 

n)Fair Instruments / Concentration

 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and ASC 825, Financial Instruments the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective relatively short maturity dates and current market rates for similar instruments. The Company is exposed to credit risk through its cash and accounts receivable, but mitigates this risk by keeping deposits at major financial institutions and advancing credit only to bona fide creditworthy entities. The maximum amount of credit risk is equal to the carrying amount.

 

o)Financial Instruments

 

Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1

 

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2

 

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

 

Level 3

 

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of our cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. We believe that the recorded values of all of our other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

 

  Page 10
 

 

p)Foreign Currency

 

The functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiary, Mobetize USA Inc. is the United States Dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s international subsidiary, Mobetize Canada Inc., is the local currency, which is Canadian dollar. The Company translates the financial statements of this subsidiary to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 740, Foreign Currency Translation Matters using month-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates for the annual period are derived from daily spot rates for revenues and expenses. Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

 

q)Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

 

In June 2014, ASU guidance was issued to resolve the diversity of practice relating to the accounting for stock based performance awards that the performance target could be achieved after the employee completes the required service period. The update is effective prospectively or retrospectively for annual reporting periods beginning December 15, 2015. The adoption of the pronouncement did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements. The amendments in this Update remove the definition of a development stage entity from the Master Glossary of the Accounting Standards Codification, thereby removing the financial reporting distinction between development stage entities and other reporting entities. In addition, the amendments eliminate the requirements for development stage entities to (1) present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity, (2) label the financial statements as those of a development stage entity, (3) disclose a description of the development stage activities in which the entity is engaged, and (4) disclose in the first year in which the entity is no longer a development stage entity that in prior years it had been in the development stage. Accordingly, we have elected to adopt ASU No. 2014-10.

 

r)Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, ASU guidance was issued related to revenue from contracts with customers. The new standard provides a five-step approach to be applied to all contracts with customers and also requires expanded disclosures about revenue recognition. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods and is to be retrospectively applied. Early adoption is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this guidance and the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

 

3.     Share Exchange Agreement between Mobetize Corp. and Mobetize Inc.

 

On September 4, 2013, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with Mobetize and the shareholders of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Mobetize.

 

Pursuant to the agreement, the Company acquired the net assets of Mobetize Inc. in exchange for 22,003,000 common shares of the Company. Following the close of the share exchange agreement, there were 26,633,000 common shares outstanding, of which the former shareholders of Mobetize Inc. controlled approximately 22,503,000 common shares, or 84% of the total issued and outstanding common shares of the Company, resulting in a change of control. The 22,503,000 common shares held by former shareholders of Mobetize Inc. were comprised of 22,003,000 common shares from the share exchange agreement and 500,000 common shares held by the President and Director of Mobetize Inc., which were acquired in a private transaction prior to the share exchange agreement.

 

The transaction was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization transaction, as the Company qualified as a non-operating public shell company given the fact that the Company held nominal net monetary assets, consisting primarily of cash at the time of merger transaction. As Mobetize Inc. is deemed to be the purchaser for accounting purposes under recapitalization accounting, these financial statements are presented as a continuation of Mobetize Inc. The equity of Mobetize Inc. is presented as the equity of the combined company and the capital stock account of Mobetize Inc. is adjusted to reflect the part value of the outstanding and issued common stock of the legal acquirer (the Company) after giving effect to the number of shares issued in the purchase and sale agreement. Shares retained by the Company are reflected as issuance as of the acquisition date for the historical amount of the net assets of the acquired entity, which in this case is zero.

On December 24, 2013 the Company completed a debt for equity swap transaction, through which it converted the notes receivable and accrued interest it held from Telupay International Inc. (“Telupay”) into 3,268,097 common shares in Telupay. As a result of this transaction, the Company owned approximately 2.02% of the outstanding share capital of Telupay.

 

The Company recognizes the holding of these shares as an investment available for sale and values it at the fair market value of the shares. As Telupay is a public company on the OTC market, the shares are valued at the market price. During the twelve month period ending March 31, 2015 the Company fully liquidated 3,268,097 common shares of Telupay for $130,527 in cash proceeds, realizing a loss on sale of investment of $1,503,523.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATION

 

PRELIMINARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements, which are included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q (the “Report”). This Report contains forward-looking statements which relate to future events or our future financial performance. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “should,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause our or our industry’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 these forward-looking statements.

 

In evaluating these statements, you should consider various factors which may cause our actual results to differ materially from any forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the predictions reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements. Therefore, actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

 

We are considered a development stage company. Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2015.

 

GENERAL

 

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 23, 2012. Our business office is at 8150 Birch Bay Road, Suite 205, Blaine WA 98230. Our telephone number is (206) 347-4515.

 

Our original business was to provide service to international students who want to study in Canada. We have not generated any revenues and our principal business activities had consisted of creating a business plan and entering into a Referral Agreement dated May 7, 2012 with Novy Mir, Ltd., an independent contractor who was to refer international students to us.

 

Our business plan was to help international students enroll in appropriate universities, institutes, colleges or schools in Canada. We also had planned to help students obtain student visas and find accommodations in the cities of study. Our service was to start from preliminary consultation and end when the client was enrolled to the program, entered to the destination country and accommodated at a desired place.

 

Unfortunately, we were not able to raise sufficient capital to fund our business development and consequently our management began considering alternative strategies, such as business combinations or acquisitions to create value for our shareholders.

 

On July 9, 2013, we entered into an asset purchase and sale agreement with Mobetize Inc. (“Priveco”), a State of Nevada corporation and formerly “Telupay Inc.”. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, we agreed to acquire substantially all the assets of Priveco in exchange for the issuance by our company of 22,003,000 shares of our common stock to Priveco.

 

  Page 18
 

On July 12, 2013, Ms. Shpeyzer had resigned as our President, Principal Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer and Director. Ms. Shpeyzer’s resignation was not the result of any disagreement with our company regarding our operations, policies, practices or otherwise. Concurrently with Ms. Shpeyzer’s resignation, Mr. Stephen Fowler was appointed as our President, Principal Financial Officer, Principal Accounting Officer and as a director.

 

In accordance with board approval, we filed a Certificate of Change dated August 8, 2013 with the Nevada Secretary of State to give effect to a forward split of our authorized, issued and outstanding shares of common stock on a 7 new for 1 old basis, such that our authorized capital increased from 75,000,000 to 525,000,000 shares of common stock and, correspondingly, our issued and outstanding shares of common stock was increased from 3,290,000 to 23,030,000 common shares, all with a par value of $0.001.  

 

Further, effective August 13, 2013, in accordance with approval from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), our company changed its name from “Slavia, Corp.” to “Mobetize Corp.”.  The name change and forward split became effective with the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board at the opening of trading on August 14, 2013 under the symbol SAVID”. Effective October 1, 2013, our stock symbol changed from “SAVID” to “MPAY” to better reflect the new name of our company. 

 

In connection with the asset purchase and sale agreement, Mr. Fowler agreed to return for cancellation 18,400,000 shares of our common stock on September 4, 2013. Concurrently, we closed the asset purchase and sale by issuing the required 22,003,000 common shares to Priveco. Also pursuant to the asset purchase and sale agreement, on September 4, 2013, Ajay Hans was appointed as a director and Principal Executive Officer of our company.

 

On September 20, 2013, Stephen Fowler had resigned as our Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer.

On March 14, 2014 our company issued 200,000 common shares at a deemed price of $0.20 a share to Bacarrat Overseas Ltd upon conversion of the outstanding notes payable to equity.

 

On March 26, 2014 our company entered in to a debt for equity settlement agreement with the president of our company. Under the terms of this agreement, the Company settled debts of $112,500 owed to the president of our company in return for the issuance of 150,000 common shares. This transaction was valued at the prevailing market price of $1.35 per share, so our company incurred an interest charge of $90,000 as a result of this transaction.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

 

Our original business was to provide service to international students who want to study in Canada. We did not generate any revenues and our principal business activities consisted of creating a business plan. Our business plan was to help international students enrol in appropriate universities, institutes, colleges or schools in Canada. We also had planned to help students obtain student visas and find accommodations in the cities of study. Our service was to start from preliminary consultation and will end when the client is enrolled to the program, entered to the destination country and accommodated at desired place.

 

Unfortunately, we were not able to raise sufficient capital to fund our business development and consequently our management began considering alternative strategies, such as business combinations or acquisitions to create value for our shareholders.

 

As such, we purchased all or substantially all of the business assets of Mobetize Inc. on September 4, 2013 and our new business offers us the opportunity to become a leading online and mobile commerce platform provider for telecom operators, payment service providers and banks. Our platform is brand-able and enables telecom operators, employers and prepaid card issuers to simplify the delivery of mobile financial services.  We ensure end-to-end integration for services such as retail/online payments, air-time top ups, international remittances/money transfer, P2P transfers and Visa/Mastercard programs on mobile devices. We seamlessly integrate and white label our secure mobile money platform with our delivery partners to help increase their average revenue per customer (ARPU), decrease customer service costs, and increase loyalty to existing offerings. 

 

Telecom Products and Solutions:

Adoption of the smart phone has created an unprecedented increase in the use of the mobile devices for financial transactions.  This paradigm is changing the way people receive financial services across the globe. MFS are part of a long-term strategy for telecom operators worldwide to enhance their relationship with their subscribers and increase Average Revenue Per User (“ARPU”). For telcos with predominantly prepaid customer bases, we assist them in significantly increasing their enterprise value, as we effectively convert pre-paid subscribers in to post-paid subscribers. We have commenced operations with our first products designed and ready for sale and/or implementation.

With more than 8 million foreign residents from 140 different countries, the international money transfer remittance market is very large in the UAE. According to the UAE Government, over US$20 billion was remitted from the UAE during 2012 and other money transfer experts have stated remittances from UAE were nearly US$30 Billion for 2013. Many expatriate workers in the UAE and consumers need better information about their finances, and desire the ease and convenience of conducting financial transactions via a mobile device. Although these workers and consumers often have insufficient access to financial services, their access to mobile phones is widespread. According to Nielsen, there is 78 percent smartphone penetration in the UAE, which is one of the highest penetration rates in the MENAP region. In fact, 81 percent of mobile owners age 16-34 now own smartphones, and penetration is rising steadily among other age groups as well.

 

Our smartWallet platform will enable SurePay, on a white label basis, to offer a rich mobile wallet feature set and services to employers and their expatriate workers including features such as user registration, customized account settings, balance view, and stored payment methods. According to the terms of the three-year agreement, we will initially provide SurePay's users our smartWallet platform, smartRemit international money transfer service, and our smartCharge mobile phone airtime top-up/ recharge service. Additional services, including bill payments, POS payments, prepaid cards and other services will be added to the wallet.

For the three months ended September 30, 2015 operating costs were $357,423 compared with $381,720 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. This $24,297 decrease is primarily attributed to the following: $44,069 decrease to investor relations as we eliminated an investor relations services contract, and $25,530 decrease in management salaries and consulting fees as we internalized certain roles while optimizing the management structure to reduce overhead cost, which was offset by a $14,246 increase in research and development as we continued to focus on and invest in our product development, and a $29,578 increase in sales and marketing expense as we began efforts to increase market awareness.

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2015, our company recorded a net loss of $713,486 compared with a net loss of $754,050 for the six months ended September 30, 2014. During the three months ended September 30, 2015, our company recorded a net loss of $353,681 compared with a net loss of $379,305 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. Revenues during each of these periods was not significant, therefore any change to net loss can be best explained through the analysis of total operating costs above.

The increase in the cash balance was primarily attributed to proceeds from the sale of common stock and warrant exercise offset cash used from operating activities. The increase in total assets was also primarily due to the increase in the cash balance offset somewhat by reductions in accounts receivable and prepaid expenses and deposits.

 

As at September 30, 2015, our company had total liabilities of $170,419 compared with total liabilities of $163,215 as at March 31, 2015.

Cash flow used in Operating Activities

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2015, our company used $611,355 of cash for operating activities compared to $593,681 of cash used in operating activities during the six months ended September 30, 2014. The $17,643 increase in cash used in operating activities is primarily attributed to the following the fact that net loss after adding back shares issued for services and amortization expense was $103,805 higher in 2014 which was offset by a decrease in prepaid expenses and increase in payable and accrued liabilities in the 2015 period.

 

Cash flow used in Investing Activities

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2015 our company used $1,606 of cash in investing activities compared to $7,124 in 2014. Cash used in investing activities during the six months ended September 30, 2015 was due to the purchase of computer equipment while cash used in investing activities during the same period in 2014 was due to investment in software development costs.

 

Cash flow from Financing Activities

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2015, our company received $794,802 of proceeds from financing activities compared to $783,622 during the six months ended September 30, 2014. Both periods benefitted from private placements share subscriptions that during the six months ended September 30, 2015 included approximately $228,000 of investment by the Chief Executive Office and the Chief Financial Officer of the company.

 

SUBSEQUENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

From October 1, 2015 through November 3, 2015  2,630,000 stock options from the Stock Option Plan  were issued to directors, employees, advisors and consultants for the exercise of up to 2,630,000 common shares with a $0.60 exercise price, a 5 year life, and vesting terms ranging from immediate to 32 months depending, generally, on the tenure of staff.

 

PLAN OF OPERATION AND FUNDING

 

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of our existing funds and further issuances of securities. Our working capital requirements are expected to increase in line with the growth of our business.

 

Existing working capital, further advances and debt instruments, and anticipated cash flow are expected to be adequate to fund our operations over the next twelve months. We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements. Generally, we have financed operations to date through the proceeds of the private placement of equity and advances from directors. In connection with our business plan, management anticipates additional increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures relating to: (i) acquisition of inventory; (ii) developmental expenses associated with a start-up business; and (iii) marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of securities, and debt issuances. Thereafter, we expect we will need to raise additional capital and generate revenues to meet long-term operating requirements. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for the above purposes will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company. Additional issuances of equity or convertible debt securities will result in dilution to our current shareholders. Further, such securities might have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our common stock. Additional financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. If adequate funds are not available or are not available on acceptable terms, we may not be able to take advantage of prospective new business endeavors or opportunities, which could significantly and materially restrict our business operations.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

 

GOING CONCERN

 

The independent auditors' report accompanying our March 31, 2015 financial statements contained an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

There is significant doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

These financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for September 30, 2015 have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that our company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. As of September 30, 2015, our company has an accumulated deficit of $4,968,862 and has accumulated other comprehensive losses of $7,366. The continuation of our company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its management, and its ability to identify future investment opportunities and obtain the necessary debt or equity financing, and generating profitable operations from our company’s future operations. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should our company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in note 2 to our financial statements. While the selection and application of any accounting policy may involve some level of subjective judgments and estimates, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to our financial statements, potentially involve the most subjective judgments in their selection and application, and are the most susceptible to uncertainties and changing conditions.

 

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from licensing and professional fees. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.

 

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of determining fair value. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the statement of consolidated comprehensive loss over the requisite service period.

 

  Page 32
 

Options granted to consultants are valued at the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or the fair value of the services received, whichever is more reliably measureable.

As we are a smaller reporting company, as defined by Item 10 of Regulation S-K, we are not required to provide the information required by this item.

 

 

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms adopted by the SEC, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Management, with the participation of the President and the Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on such evaluation, the President and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. Our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the "material weaknesses" described below under "Management's report on internal control over financial reporting," which are in the process of being remediated as described below under "Management Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses."

 

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our President and Chief Financial Officer and affected 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 GAAP. 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 GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and our Board of 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 our financial statements

 

  Page 33
 

Because of its inherent limitations, a system of internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met and may not prevent or detect misstatements. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting.

 

However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process, and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Further, over time control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015. In making its assessment, management used the criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"). Based on its assessment, management has concluded that we had certain control deficiencies described below that constituted material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting. As a result, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2015.

 

A "material weakness" is defined under SEC rules as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of a company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by the company's internal controls. As a result of management's review of the investigation issues and results, and other internal reviews and evaluations that were completed after the end of quarter related to the preparation of management's report on internal controls over financial reporting required for this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, management concluded that we had material weaknesses in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following:

 

1. lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;
2. insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of US GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements;

 

We do not believe the material weaknesses described above caused any meaningful or significant misreporting of our financial condition and results of operations for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

 

Management Plan to Remediate Material Weaknesses

 

Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth above did not have an effect on our financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and the lack of a majority of outside directors on our board of directors results in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, which could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods. In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:

 

  Page 34
 

We plan to appoint one or more outside directors to our board of directors who shall be appointed to an audit committee resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures such as reviewing and approving estimates and assumptions made by management when funds are available to us.

 

We believe the remediation measures described above will remediate the material weaknesses we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above.

 

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

There have been no changes in our company’s internal control over financial reporting during the last quarterly period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our company's internal control over financial reporting.
