Nature of Operations and Ability to Continue as a Going Concern

   

The Company was incorporated on September 22, 1995 under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) and commenced operations on that date. On October 2, 1997, the Company was continued under the laws of the Province of Ontario. Effective February 26, 1999, the Company changed its name from Snowbird Vacations International Inc. to inTRAVELnet.com inc. and on April 17, 2002, the Company’s name was changed to Forum National Investments Ltd.

   

The Company earns revenue from investments in life settlement contracts, the sale of travel and fitness club membership and monthly dues from the members of its travel and fitness clubs. As at June 30, 2009, the Company has accumulated deficit of $10,899,966 and working capital of $849,251. The Company anticipates incurring substantial expenditures to further develop its life settlement line of business. The Company’s cash flow from operating activities may not be sufficient to satisfy its obligations as they come due and meet the requirements of its capital investment programs and covenants on its long term debt. The continued existence of the Company is dependent upon its ability to generate profit from its life settlement and vacation club business lines to meet its obligations as they become due. The Company intends to finance the future capital required to acquire life settlement contracts and continued operations from a combination of traditional debt, equity markets and cash flow from operations. However, there is no assurance that (a) traditional debt and equity markets may be accessible as required, or if so, on acceptable terms and, or (b) the demand for and selling prices of the Company’s products, may not be sufficient to meet cash flow. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted with certainty and therefore the Company may not be able to continue operations as planned. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the amounts and classification of assets and liabilities that may be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern

Financial Statement Presentation

   

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in Canada for interim financial information and follow the same accounting policies and methods of their application as the Company’s most recent annual financial statements. These interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the disclosure included in the audited annual consolidated financial statements, and accordingly, these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2008. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.

   

These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. These principles differ in certain respects from those accounting principles and practices that the Company would have followed had its unaudited consolidated financial statements been prepared in accordance with accounting principles and practices generally accepted in the United States.

Significant Accounting Policies

     
(a)

Basis of presentation

     

These interim consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“Canadian GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company and the following wholly owned subsidiaries:


    Incorporating     Date of Acquisition  
Subsidiaries   Jurisdiction     or Incorporation  
             
inTRAVELnet.com inc.   Alberta, Canada     November 9, 1999  
Intravelnet Ltd.   Ontario, Canada     July 25, 2003  
ATM Travel Group Ltd. (“ATM”)   British Columbia, Canada     April 3, 2000  
International Fitness Vacations (BC) Ltd.   British Columbia, Canada     December 31, 2006  
American Life Settlement Society LLC   State of Delaware, USA     November 15, 2007  

 

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

       
  (b)

Revenue recognition

       
  (i)

The Company generates revenues from investments in Life Settlements, yacht charter operations, and the sale of memberships and dues. In accordance with CICA HB 3400, Revenue, the portion of revenue received from members, which entitles members to use the Company’s vacation and travel club privileges at a future date, is deferred and recognized in income evenly over the term of the member’s entitlements. For lifetime memberships, revenue is recognized over a period of five years, which is management’s best estimate of the period over which performance will be required.

       
  (ii)

During the year ended September 30, 2008, the Company entered into the life settlement industry. The Company recorded investments in the life settlement contracts at fair value on each balance sheet date. Any changes to fair value will be recognized in the statements of operations in the period in which the changes occur. During the period ended June 30, 2009, the Company recognized in revenue the difference between the death benefits and the carrying value of the policy when the Company determined that settlement and ultimate collection is reasonably assured.

       
  (c)

Business segments

       
 

The Company’s businesses are organized, managed and internally grouped into segments based on differences in products, technologies and services. The Company continues to manage its operations in two operating business segments: Life Settlement segment and Vacation Club segment.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     
(d)

Stock-based compensation

     

The Company follows the recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA) for stock-based compensation and other stock-based payments. The Company accounts for stock options granted to directors, employees and consultants using the fair value method. The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black- Scholes option pricing model and charged to earnings over the vesting period with a corresponding increase in contributed surplus. Upon exercise of the stock options, consideration received together with the amount previously recognized in contributed surplus is recorded as an increase to capital stock.

     
(e)

Property and equipment

     

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis in order to amortize the cost of depreciable assets over their estimated useful lives. For assets constructed internally, amortization is charged once the asset is complete and brought into use. For assets that are under construction, the Company evaluates recoverability based on the fair value of the asset on the reporting date. When impairment in value is noted, the carrying value of the property and equipment is reduced by a charge to operations.

     

The annual rates applied are as follows:


Asset Basis Rate
Motor vessel Straight-line 4%
Vehicles Straight-line 25%
Vehicles under capital lease Straight-line 33%
Equipment Straight-line 20%
Computers Straight-line 30%
Leasehold improvements Term of lease 5 years

  (f)

Deferred organization costs

     
 

The Company defers the costs relating to the structuring of a proposed trust to fund future growth of the life settlement business. The costs of setting up the trust will be amortized once the proposed trust is operational. The Company expects the trust to be operational during 2009.

     
  (g)

Purchased intangibles

     
 

The Company defers and amortizes the cost of purchased intangibles, which consists of a license to purchase condo accommodation at wholesale prices. Amortization is provided on a straight-line basis over a period of ten years.

     
 

Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are identified and recognized apart from goodwill when they arise from either contractual enterprise and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or with a group of related assets or liabilities. Intangible assets with definite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. When the carrying amount of goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in the statement of operations. The Company has identified two reporting units.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     
(h)

Foreign currency translation

     

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency have been translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and non-monetary items are translated at rates of exchange in effect when the assets were acquired or obligations incurred. Revenues and expenses are translated at the rates in effect at the time of the transaction. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in the determination of net income for the period.

     
(i)

Advances against future revenue streams

     

The Company has entered into arrangements whereby future streams of certain financed membership cash flows are sold to a third party (“Lender”) while the Company is committed to provide the future services under these membership contracts. The Company receives cash proceeds on the sale at a discount to the future proceeds that the Lender is expected to receive from the customers. The Lender has recourse against the Company should the amounts become uncollectible, and the Company establishes a reserve for such amounts. For accounting purposes, the discounted proceeds have been recorded as a liability at the time of the transaction, which is credited to the gross value through a charge to interest expense over the term of the membership contracts. The related revenue is recorded as a reduction of the liability to reflect the membership services rendered by the Company with the resulting reduction in the Company’s potential obligation, in accordance with its revenue recognition policy (note 3(b)).

     
(j)

Earnings per share

     

Basic earnings-per-share is calculated based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The Company uses the treasury stock method for calculating diluted earnings per share.

     
(k)

Income taxes

     

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Future income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis and operating loss carry-forwards. Future income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on future income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the substantial enactment date. To the extent that it is more likely than not those future income tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance is provided for the excess.

Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

     
(l)

Impairment of long lived assets

     

Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying value of a long-lived asset intended for use exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows is expected from its use and eventual disposition. The impairment loss is measured as the excess of the carrying value of the asset over its fair value.

     
(m)

Use of estimates

     

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with Canadian 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. Significant areas requiring the use of estimates include the valuation of accounts receivable, impairment of assets, including intangible assets, rates for amortization and revenue recognition, balances of accrued liabilities, valuation allowance for future income tax assets, and the determination of the variables used in the calculation of stock-based compensation. While management believes the estimates used are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and could impact future results of operations and cash flows.

     
(n)

Cash and cash equivalents

     

Securities with original maturities of three months or less are considered cash equivalents, at cost. The securities are highly liquid and can be converted to known amounts of cash at any time, and are held at major financial institutions. Accrued interest on the guaranteed investment certificates, included as cash equivalents, is at the stated interest rate over the term of the instrument and included in accounts receivable.

     
(o)

Deferred costs

     

Sales commissions are deferred and amortized to operations on the same basis as the related membership sales are recognized as revenue.

     
(p)

Comprehensive income

     

Comprehensive income includes both net earnings and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income (“OCI”) includes holding gains and losses on available for sale investments, gains and losses on certain derivative financial instruments and foreign currency gains and losses relating to self-sustaining foreign operations, all of which are not included in the calculation of net earnings until realized. The Company does not have any comprehensive income items for the periods presented.

(q)

Financial instruments

     

Financial instruments are initially recognized at fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount of consideration that would be agreed upon in an arm’s-length transaction between knowledgeable, willing parties who are under no compulsion to act. Fair values of financial instruments are based on independent prices quoted in active markets. In the absence of an active market, fair values are determined based on valuation models such as discounted cash flows, which require the use of assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and discount rates. Subsequent measurement depends on management’s classification of the financial assets as held-for-trading, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity or loans and receivables, and financial liabilities as held-for-trading or other liabilities. The classification of financial instruments depends on the nature and purpose of the financial instruments, management’s choice and in some circumstances, management’s intentions.

     
    Held-for-trading
     
    Financial instruments classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value with the realized and unrealized changes in fair value recognized each reporting period through interest and financing costs, net on the consolidated statement of earnings.
     

Available-for-sale

     

Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value with the unrealized changes in fair value recorded each reporting period in OCI. Investments in equity instruments classified as available-for-sale that do not have the quoted price in an active market are recorded at cost. Each reporting period, available-for-sale assets are written down to fair value through interest and financing costs, net on the consolidated statement of earnings to reflect impairments that are considered to be other than temporary.

     

Held-to-maturity, loans and receivables and other liabilities

     

Financial instruments classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables and other liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

     

The following table summarizes the Company’s selected financial instrument classifications based on its intentions:


  Financial instrument Classification
  Cash and cash equivalents Held-for-trading
  Short-term deposits Held-to-maturity
  Accounts and notes receivable Loans and receivables
  Life Settlements receivable Loans and receivables
  Other receivables Loans and receivables
  Investment Available for sale
  Life Settlements Held-for-trading
  Accounts payable and accrued liabilities Other liabilities
  Debentures Other liabilities
  Long-term debt Other liabilities
  Loans from related parties Other liabilities

Business segments

   

Transactions among reportable segments are recorded at cost. The Company is an integrated enterprise characterized by substantial intersegment cooperation and cost allocations, therefore, management does not represent that these segments, if operated independently, would report the operating income and financial information shown. The allocations resulting from the shared utilization of shared assets are not necessarily indicative of the underlying activity for segment assets, depreciation and amortization, and capital expenditures.

Financial Instruments

     
(a)

Credit risk

     

Credit risk is the risk that a party to one of the Company’s financial instruments will cause a financial loss to the Company by failing to discharge an obligation. The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets, which represent the maximum exposure to credit risk, are as follows:


      June 30,     September 30,  
      2009     2008  
               
               
  Cash and cash equivalents $  4,357,989   $  227,795  
  Short-term deposits   14,210     14,210  
  Accounts and notes receivable   440,004     749,612  
  Life Settlement receivable       5,371,606  
  Other receivables   7,853     4,981  
               
               
  Total $  4,820,056   $  6,368,204  

Cash and cash equivalents and short term deposits: Credit risk associated with these assets is minimized substantially by ensuring that these financial assets are placed in debt instruments of the Canadian Federal government and well-capitalized financial institutions.

Accounts and notes receivable and Other receivables: Credit risk associated with these assets is minimized due to their nature. All notes receivable are carried at net after allowing for bad debts 12

and unearned interest. The provision for doubtful accounts receivable is estimated based on an assessment of individual accounts and the length of time balances have been outstanding.

Financial Instruments (continued)

 

 

(b)

Liquidity risk

 

 

Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities. The Company manages liquidity risk by regularly monitoring forecasted and actual cash flows as well as maturity profiles of financial assets and financial liabilities. The Company expects the following maturities of its financial liabilities (including interest) and operating leases and contracts:


      Expected payments by period as at June 30, 2009  
                        More        
      Within 1 yr     2-3 yrs     4-5 yrs     than 5 yrs       Total  
                                 
  Accounts payable and                              
   accrued liabilities $ 1,506,385               $ 1,506,385  
  Accounts payable – other   1,210,050                 1,210,050  
  Life settlement premiums   1,313,713     2,627,426     2,627,426         6,568,565  
  Operating lease and contracts   87,207     36,225     7,187         130,619  
                                 
                                 
  Total $ 4,117,355   $ 2,663,651   $ 2,634,613       $ 9,415,619  

Operating leases and contracts include property leases for the Company’s travel operations. The Company believes that it will not encounter difficulty in meeting the obligations associated with its financial liabilities and further believes that, if necessary, it would be able to access the capital markets for additional financial resources at prevailing market rates.

   
(c)

Market risk

   

Market risk is the risk that fair value of future cash flows of financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in interest rates and/or foreign currency exchange rates. With exception of its long-term loan, the carrying amounts of the Company’s financial instruments are not subject to interest rate risk.

   

The following table sets out a sensitivity analysis of the effect of the Company’s financial instruments that are subject to foreign currency risk by applying reasonably possible changes in foreign currency rates relative to the Company’s functional currency, the Canadian dollar.


            Foreign Currency Risk        
            -25%           +25%        
      Carrying amount     Net           Net

   Long-term debt   5,705,590     1,426,398         (1,426,398 )

Financial Instruments (continued)

     
(c)

Market risk (continued)

     

The Company is exposed to currency risk in relation to their US dollar financing referred to in note 7. The Company has not entered into any foreign currency contracts to mitigate this risk.

     
(d)

Fair value

     

Carrying amounts of certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts and notes receivable, and accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair values due to their short-term maturities. The fair value of the convertible debentures is not readily determinable as these instruments were issued to related parties and comparable market rates are not available.

     
6.

Life Settlements

     

The Company purchases Life Settlement contracts for long term investment purposes and accounts for these investments under CICA HB 3855. The Company designated the investments in Life Settlement contracts as held-for-trading and are recorded at fair value on each reporting dates. As of June 30, 2009 the Company has the following investment in Life Settlement contracts.


  Period   Carrying     Premiums     Face  
  Ending   value     payable     value  
                     
  June 30, 2009   6,647,120     1,313,713     27,483,207  
  September 30, 2008   3,511,639     1,313,713     27,483,207  

Fair value is estimated using good-faith estimates calculated by a valuation committee. The committee considered the following factors: cost at date of purchase; recent purchases and sales of similar investments; financial standing of the issuer; changes in economic conditions affecting the issuer; standard, actuarially developed mortality tables; and industry life expectancy reports.

For the fiscal period presented on the current statement of operations and deficit, nine months ended June 30, 2009, and nine months ended June 30, 2008 the investments experienced the following gains:

  Period   Realized     Unrealized  
  Ended   Gains     Gains  
               
  June 30, 2008   -     478,503  
  June 30, 2009   -     1,135,935
