CRYPTOLOGIC LIMITED
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands of US. dollars, except per share disclosure and where indicated otherwise)
Three and six months ended June 30, 2011
 
 
 
1.
Nature of operations
 
CryptoLogic Limited and its subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a provider of commerce-enabling technology, permitting secure, reliable, high-speed and private financial transactions over the Internet.  The Company provides a comprehensive solution including software, network operations, administrative and marketing consulting services to licensed gaming operators (“Hosted Casino”).  The Company also licenses individual games, generally with branded content, to licensed gaming operators (“Branded Games”).  The Company earns substantially all of its revenue from the hosting and service arrangements for the operation of online casino and poker games on behalf of licensed casinos and licensing Branded Games to licensed operators.  Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is earned in U.S. dollars, British pounds and euro from licensees located outside of the United States.  The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar and, consequently, it measures and reports its results in U.S. dollars.
 
2.
Significant accounting policies
 
 
(a)
Statement of Compliance and Conversion to International Financial Reporting Standards
 
The Canadian Accounting Standards Board (“AcSB”) confirmed in February 2008 that International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) would replace Canadian generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for publicly accountable enterprises for financial periods beginning on or after January 1, 2011.
 
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, Interim Financial Reporting (“IAS 34”) using accounting policies consistent with IFRS as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (“IFRIC”).
 
These are the Company’s second IFRS interim condensed consolidated financial statements for part of the period covered by the first IFRS annual consolidated financial statements to be presented in accordance with IFRS for the year endingDecember 31, 2011.  Previously the Company prepared its annual and interim consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP.
 
The accounting policies have been applied consistently by the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
 
 
(b)
Basis of consolidation
 
 
(i)
Business Combinations
 
 
Acquisitions prior to January 1, 2010
 
As part of its transition to IFRS, the Company elected to restate only those business combinations that occurred on or after January 1, 2010.  In respect of acquisitions prior to January 1, 2010, goodwill represents the amount recognized under previous GAAP.
 
 
(ii)
Acquisitions of non-controlling interests
 
Acquisitions of non-controlling interests are accounted for as transactions with shareholders in their capacity as equity holders.  Therefore no goodwill is recognized as a result of such transactions.
 
 
(iii)
Subsidiaries
 
Subsidiaries are entities controlled by the Company.  The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases.  The accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed when necessary to align them with the policies adopted by the Company.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2011
 
 
 
(iv)
Special purpose entities
 
A special purpose entity (SPE) is consolidated if, based on an evaluation of the substance of its relationship with the Company and the SPE’s risks and rewards, the Company concludes that it controls the SPE.  SPEs are considered to be controlled by the Company where the SPE is established under terms that impose strict limitations on the decision-making powers of the SPE’s management and that result in the Company receiving the majority of the benefits related to the SPE’s operations and net assets, being exposed to the majority of risks incident to the SPE’s activities, and retaining the majority of the residual or ownership risks related to the SPE or its assets.
 
The Company has assessed its operations and relationships and concluded that there are no SPEs in respect of which the Company is the primary beneficiary.
 
 
(v)
Transactions eliminated on consolidation
 
Intercompany balances and transactions, and any unrealized income and expenses arising from intercompany transactions, are eliminated in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
Unrealized gains arising from transactions with equity accounted investees are eliminated against the investment to the extent of the Company’s interest in the investee.  Unrealized losses are eliminated in the same way as unrealized gains, but only to the extent that there is no evidence of impairment.
 
 
(c)
Foreign currency
 
Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars, the Company’s functional currency, at exchange rates at the dates of the transactions.  Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the reporting date are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at that date.  The foreign currency gain or loss on monetary items is the difference between amortized cost in the functional currency at the beginning of the period, adjusted for effective interest and payments during the period, and the amortized cost in foreign currency translated at the exchange rate at the end of the period.  Non-monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies that are measured at fair value are retranslated to the functional currency at the exchange rate at the date that the fair value was determined.  Foreign currency differences arising on retranslation are recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).  Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction.
 
 
(d)
Property, plant and equipment
 
 
(i)
Recognition and measurement
 
Items of property, plant and equipment are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.  The cost of certain items of property, plant and equipment was determined by reference to a previous GAAP revaluation.  The Company elected to apply the optional exemption to use this previous revaluation as deemed cost at January 1, 2010, the date of transition (see note 5).  Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the asset.
 
Purchased software that is integral to the functionality of the related equipment is capitalized as part of that equipment.
 
When parts of an item of property, plant and equipment have different useful lives, they are accounted for as separate items (major components) of property, plant and equipment.

Gains and losses on disposal of an item of property, plant and equipment are determined by comparing the proceeds from disposal with the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment, and are recognized net within profit or loss.
 
 
(ii)
Subsequent costs
 
The cost of replacing a part of an item of property, plant and equipment is recognized in the carrying amount of the item if it is probable that the future economic benefits embodied within the part will flow to the Company, and its cost can be measured reliably.  The carrying amount of the replaced part is derecognized.  The costs of the day-to-day servicing of property, plant and equipment are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.
 
 
(iii)
Depreciation
 
Depreciation is calculated over the depreciable amount, which is the cost of an asset less its residual value.  Depreciation is recognized in profit or loss over the estimated useful lives of each part of an item of property, plant and equipment, since this most closely reflects the expected pattern of consumption of the future economic benefits embodied in the asset.
 
Leased assets are depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and their useful lives.
 
Depreciation is based on the estimated useful lives of the assets using the following methods and annual rates:
 
 Asset  Basis  Rate
 Computer equipment  Diminishing balance   40%
 Office furniture and equipment  Diminishing balance   25%
 Leasehold improvements   Straight-line Term of lease
 
Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted if appropriate.
 
 
(e)
Intangible assets
 
 
(i)
Goodwill
 
Goodwill that arises upon the acquisition of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets.  In respect of acquisitions prior to January 1, 2010, goodwill is included on the basis of its deemed cost, which represents the amount recorded under previous GAAP.  Goodwill is measured at cost less accumulated impairment losses.
 
 
(ii)
Computer software
 
Costs that are directly associated with identifiable and unique computer software products controlled by the Company and that will probably generate economic benefits exceeding costs beyond one year are recognized as intangible assets.  Subsequently, computer software is carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.
 
Expenditure which enhances or extends the performance of computer software programmes beyond their original specifications is recognized as a capital improvement and added to the original cost of the computer software.  Costs associated with the maintenance of computer software programmes are recognized as an expense when incurred.
 
The cost related to the development of software is expensed as incurred unless such costs meet the criteria for capitalization under IFRS.  The Company capitalizes certain computer software

development costs incurred for products designed for internal use.  Capitalized software development costs are included in intangible assets (see note 6).
 
Amortization commences when the computer software is available for use using the following methods and annual rates:
 
Asset Basis  Rate
Computer software and licenses  Straight-line 3 - 5 years
Capitalized software development Straight-line 7 years
 
 
(iii)
Other intangible assets
 
Other intangible assets consist of customer lists, brand names and domain names acquired and have finite useful lives.  Other intangible assets are measured at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment losses.  The carrying value of other intangible assets is reviewed if indications of impairment exist (see note 6).  Other intangible assets are amortized over the useful lives of the respective assets using the following methods and annual rates:
 
 
Asset Basis  Rate
Customer lists Straight-line 3 - 7 years
Brand names Straight-line 12 years
Domain names  Straight-line 12 years

 
 
(f)
Financial instruments
 
 
(i)
Fair value measurement hierarchy
 
IFRS 7 requires certain disclosures which require the classification of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value using a fair value hierarchy that reflects the significance of the inputs used in making the fair value measurement (see note 21).  The fair value hierarchy has the following levels:
 
 
(a)
Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1);
 
(b)
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e., as prices) or indirectly (i.e., derived from prices) (Level 2); and
 
(c)
Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs) (Level 3).
 
The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the financial asset or financial liability is categorized is determined on the basis of the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  Financial assets and financial liabilities are classified in their entirety into only one of the three levels.
 
 
(ii)
Non-derivative financial assets
 
The Company initially recognizes loans and receivables and deposits on the date that they are originated.  All other financial assets (including assets designated at fair value through profit or loss) are recognized initially on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
 
The Company derecognizes a financial asset when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire, or it transfers the rights to receive the contractual cash flows on the financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred.  Any interest in transferred financial assets that is created or retained by the Company is recognized as a separate asset or liability.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
 
The Company has the following non-derivative financial assets: financial assets at fair value through profit or loss, loans and receivables and available-for sale financial assets.
 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
 
A financial asset is classified at fair value through profit or loss if it is classified as held for trading or is designated as such upon initial recognition.  Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss if the Company manages such investments and makes purchase and sale decisions based on their fair value in accordance with the Company’s documented risk management or investment strategy.  Upon initial recognition, attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.  Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value, and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss.
 
Loans and receivables
 
Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.  Such assets are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.
 
Loans and receivables comprise trade and other receivables.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash, restricted cash, security deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Available-for-sale financial assets
 
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale and that are not classified in any of the previous categories.
 
Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses (see note 21) and foreign currency differences on available-for-sale equity instruments (see note 21), are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented within equity in the fair value reserve.  When an investment is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss in other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss.
 
 
(iii)
Non-derivative financial liabilities
 
The Company initially recognizes all financial liabilities (including liabilities designated at fair value through profit or loss) on the trade date at which the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
 
The Company derecognizes a financial liability when its contractual obligations are discharged or cancelled or expire.  Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount presented in the statement of financial position when, and only when, the Company has a legal right to offset the amounts and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realize the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
 
The Company has the following non-derivative financial liabilities: trade payables and accrued liabilities.

Such financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition these financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.
 
 
(iv)
Share capital
 
Common shares
 
Common shares are classified as equity.  Incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of common shares and share options are recognized as a deduction from equity, net of any tax effects.
 
 
(g)
Impairment
 
 
(i)
Financial assets (including receivables)
 
A financial asset not carried at fair value through profit or loss is assessed at each reporting date to determine whether there is objective evidence that it is impaired.  A financial asset is impaired if objective evidence indicates that a loss event has occurred after the initial recognition of the asset, and that the loss event had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset that can be estimated reliably.
 
Objective evidence that financial assets (including equity securities) are impaired can include default or delinquency by a debtor, restructuring of an amount due to the Company on terms that the Company would not consider otherwise, indications that a debtor or issuer will enter bankruptcy, or the disappearance of an active market for a security.  In addition, for an investment in an equity security, a significant or prolonged decline in its fair value below its cost is objective evidence of impairment.
 
The Company considers evidence of impairment for receivables at both a specific asset and collective level.  All individually significant receivables are assessed for specific impairment.  Receivables that are not individually significant are collectively assessed for impairment by grouping together receivables with similar risk characteristics.
 
In assessing collective impairment, the Company uses historical trends of the probability of default, timing of recoveries and the amount of loss incurred, adjusted for management’s judgment as to whether current economic and credit conditions are such that the actual losses are likely to be greater or less than suggested by historical trends.
 
An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortized cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate.  Losses are recognized in profit or loss and reflected in an allowance account against receivables.  Interest on the impaired asset continues to be recognized through the unwinding of the discount.  When a subsequent event causes the amount of impairment loss to decrease, the decrease in impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss.
 
Impairment losses on available-for-sale investment securities are recognized by transferring the cumulative loss that has been recognized in other comprehensive income, and presented in the fair value reserve in equity, to profit or loss.  The cumulative loss that is removed from other comprehensive income and recognized in profit or loss is the difference between the acquisition cost, net of any principal repayment and amortization, and the current fair value, less any impairment loss previously recognized in profit or loss.  Changes in impairment provisions attributable to time value are reflected as a component of interest income.

(ii)
Non-financial assets
 
The carrying amounts of the Company’s non-financial assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment.  If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.  For goodwill and intangible assets that have indefinite useful lives or that are not yet available for use, the recoverable amount is estimated each year at the same time.
 
The recoverable amount of an asset or cash-generating unit is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell.  In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset.  For the purpose of impairment testing, assets that cannot be tested individually are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generates cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or groups of assets (the “cash-generating unit”, or “CGU”).  For the purposes of goodwill impairment testing, goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to the group of CGUs that is expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination.  This allocation is subject to an operating segment ceiling test and reflects the lowest level at which that goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes.
 
An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of an asset or its CGU exceeds its estimated recoverable amount.  Impairment losses are recognized in profit or loss.  Impairment losses recognized in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the units, and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit (group of units) on a pro rata basis.
 
An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortization, if no impairment loss had been recognized.
 
 
(h)
Leased assets and lease payments
 
Leases in terms of which the Company assumes substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases.  Upon initial recognition, the leased asset is measured at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments.  Subsequent to initial recognition, the asset is accounted for in accordance with the accounting policy applicable to that asset.
 
Minimum lease payments made under finance leases are apportioned between the finance expense and the reduction of the outstanding liability.  The finance expense is allocated to each period during the lease term so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.
 
Other leases are operating leases and the leased assets are not recognized in the Company’s statement of financial position.
 
Payments made under operating leases are recognized in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.  Lease incentives received are recognized as an integral part of the total lease expense over the term of the lease.
 
Contingent lease payments are accounted for by revising the minimum lease payments over the remaining term of the lease when the lease adjustment is confirmed.

(i)
Employee benefits
 
 
(i)
Defined contribution plans
 
A defined contribution plan is a post-employment benefit plan under which an entity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity and will have no legal or constructive obligation to pay further amounts.  Obligations for contributions to defined contribution pension plans are recognized as an employee benefit expense in profit or loss in the periods during which services are rendered by employees.  Prepaid contributions are recognized as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in future payments is available.  Contributions to a defined contribution plan that are due more than 12 months after the end of the period in which the employees render the service are discounted to their present value.
 
 
(ii)
Termination benefits
 
Termination benefits are recognized as an expense when the Company is committed demonstrably, without realistic possibility of withdrawal, to a formal detailed plan either to terminate employment before the normal retirement date, or to provide termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy.  Termination benefits for voluntary redundancies are recognized as an expense if the Company has made an offer of voluntary redundancy, it is probable that the offer will be accepted, and the number of acceptances can be estimated reliably.  If benefits are payable more than 12 months after the reporting period, then they are discounted to their present value.
 
 
(iii)
Share-based payment transactions
 
The grant date fair value of share-based payment awards granted to employees is recognized as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income/(loss), with a corresponding increase in equity, over the period that the employees unconditionally become entitled to the awards.  The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of awards for which the related service isexpected to be met, such that the amount ultimately recognized as an expense is based on the number of awards that doesmeet the related service performance conditions at the vesting date.
 
Fair value is determined by the Black-Scholes valuation model.  The share options plan does not have any performance conditions other than continued service.
 
 
(j)
Provisions
 
A provision is recognized if, as a result of a past event, the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation that can be estimated reliably, and it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle the obligation.  Provisions are determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.  The unwinding of the discount is recognized as finance cost.
 
 
(i)
Provision for jackpots
 
Several of the Company’s licensees participate in progressive jackpot games.  Each time a progressive jackpot game is played, a preset amount is added to a cumulative jackpot for that specific game or group of games.  Once a jackpot is won, the progressive jackpot is reset with a predetermined amount.  The Company is liable for funding the jackpot wins as well as amounts required to reset the progressive jackpot from the pool of funds collected and accrues the jackpot amount for all games on a monthly basis.  The reset amount is accrued, up to the predetermined amount, as wagering occurs.  The accrual for the jackpot at the reporting date is included in trade payables and accrued liabilities (see note 13).This amount is sufficient to cover the full amount of any required payout.

The Company regularly performs an analysis of the accumulation of jackpot funds and amounts required to address jackpot payouts.
 
 
(ii)
Restructuring
 
A provision for restructuring is recognized when the Company has approved a detailed and formal restructuring plan, and the restructuring either has commenced or has been announced publicly.  Future operating losses are not provided for.
 
 
(iii)
Onerous contracts
 
A provision for onerous contracts is recognized when the expected benefits to be derived by the Company from a contract are lower than the unavoidable cost of meeting its obligations under the contract.  The provision is measured at the present value of the lower of the expected cost of terminating the contract and the expected net cost of continuing with the contract.  Before a provision is established, the Company recognizes any impairment loss on the assets associated with that contract.
 
 
(k)
Revenue recognition
 
The Company earns its revenue primarily from:
 
 
hosting and services arrangements related to the design and operation of casino and poker sites on the internet on behalf of licensed operators
 
licensing individual games, generally with branded content, to licensed operators
 
advertising revenue generated on websites operated by the company; and
 
customizing its software for specific licensees and commerce-based transactions.
 
Revenues from Hosted Casino and Branded Games are recognized as the services are performed, on a daily basis, at the time of the gaming transactions, pursuant to the agreements with the licensees in which the Company participates in a pro rata share of the daily gaming profits, net of certain shared expenses (e.g., promotion costs).  In addition, the Company generally receives a standard monthly fee for the provision of hosting and related services from Hosted Casino licensees.
 
Advertising revenues, which are included in other revenue, are generated by display advertising on casino.co.uk and winneronline.com.  Revenue is earned and recognized as “impressions” are delivered, “click-throughs” occur or “affiliate revenue” is generated.  An “impression” is delivered when an advertisement appears in pages viewed by users.  A “click-through” occurs when a user clicks on an advertiser’s listing.  “Affiliate revenue” is generated when a player is referred from one of the company’s advertising portals to a separate online gaming site and the Company earns a percentage of the revenue generated from that player.
 
Revenue from the initial customization of the software graphics, sound and texts to the specifications of the licensees, or other services contemplated at the date the contract was executed is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the hosting and services agreements.  Revenue from customizations ordered subsequent to and not contemplated at the contract date are generally considered as a separate unit of accounting and recognized as the work is performed.
 
Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.
 
 
(l)
Royalties
 
The Company licenses various royalty rights, generally on an exclusive basis, from several owners of intellectual property rights.  These rights are used to produce games for use in Hosted Casino and also as Branded Games.  Generally, the arrangements require material prepayments of minimum guaranteed amounts which have been recorded as prepaid expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated

statements of financial position.  These prepaid amounts are amortized over the life of the arrangement as gross revenue is generated or on a straight-line basis if the underlying games are expected to have an effective royalty rate greater than the agreed amount.  The amortization of these amounts is recorded as a reduction in revenue.
 
The Company regularly reviews its estimates of future revenues under its license arrangements and, during 2010, the review identified that it was appropriate to begin amortizing certain of these royalties on a straight-line basis, such that substantially all of these royalties are amortized on a straight-line basis.  For the three months ended June 30, 2011, amortization of $853 (2010: $940) was recorded as a reduction of revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, amortization of $1,706 (2010: $1,237) was recorded as a reduction of revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company paid net royalties of $579 (2010: $1,443).  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company paid net royalties of $1,638 (2010: $2,468).  The company is committed to make further royalty payments of $1,588 (see note 19).
 
 
(m)
Finance income and finance costs
 
Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested (including available-for-sale financial assets, gains on the disposal of available-for-sale financial assets and changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss).  Interest income is recognized as it accrues in profit or loss, using the effective interest method.
 
Finance costs comprise interest and bank charges and changes in the fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss.
 
Foreign currency gains and losses are reported on a net basis.
 
 
(n)
Income tax
 
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax.  Current tax and deferred tax are recognized in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to a business combination, or items recognized directly in equity or in other comprehensive income.
 
Current tax is the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.
 
Deferred tax is recognized in respect of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.
 
Deferred tax is not recognized for the following temporary differences: the initial recognition of assets or liabilities in a transaction that is not a business combination and that affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss, and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries and jointly controlled entities to the extent that it is probable that they will not reverse in the foreseeable future.  In addition, deferred tax is not recognized for taxable temporary differences arising on the initial recognition of goodwill.  Deferred tax is measured at the tax rates that are expected to be applied to temporary differences when they reverse, based on the laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date.
 
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.

A deferred tax asset is recognized for unused tax losses, tax credits and deductible temporary differences, to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which they can be utilized.  Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
 
 
(o)
Earnings per share
 
Shares of the Company and of CryptoLogic Exchange Corporation (“CEC”) are participating securities and, accordingly, earnings per share is calculated using the two-class method.  The two-class method determines earnings per share for the Company’s Common Shares and CEC shares according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings which, in the case of the Company, are equal.
 
The Company uses the treasury stock method in computing diluted earnings per common share.  The treasury stock method is a method of recognizing the use of proceeds that could be obtained upon the exercise of options and warrants in computing diluted earnings per share.  It assumes that any proceeds would be used to purchase the Company’s Common Shares at the average market price.
 
 
(p)
Segment reporting
 
An operating segment is a component of the Company that engages in business activities from which it may earn revenues and incur expenses, including revenues and expenses that relate to transactions with any of the Company’s other components.  All operating segments’ operating results are reviewed regularly by the Company’s CEO to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and for which discrete financial information is available.
 
Segment results that are reported to the CEO include items directly attributable to a segment as well as those that can be allocated on a reasonable basis.  Unallocated items comprise mainly corporate assets (primarily the Company’s headquarters), head office expenses, and income tax assets and liabilities.
 
Segment capital expenditure is the total cost incurred during the period to acquire property, plant and equipment, and intangible assets other than goodwill.
 
 
(q)
New standards and interpretations not yet adopted
 
A number of new standards, amendments to standards and interpretations are not yet effective for the period ended June 30, 2011 and have not been applied in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements.
 
 
IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards, amendments regarding Severe Hyperinflation and Removal of Fixed Dates for First-time Adopters
 
IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures, amendments regarding Disclosures — Transfers of Financial Assets
 
IFRS 9 Financial Instruments (to replace IAS 39)
 
IAS 12 Income Taxes, amendments regarding Deferred Tax: Recovery of Underlying Assets
 
The Board of Directors expects that, when these standards or interpretations become effective in future periods, they will not have a material effect on the financial statements of the Company.

Critical accounting estimates and judgments
 
The preparation of the 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, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses.  The areas requiring estimates and judgments that may potentially have a significant impact on the Company’s earnings and financial position include, but are not limited to, provision for jackpots, the estimate useful lives of

property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, share-based payments, income taxes, the reported amounts of revenue and expenses, the fair value of financial instruments, legal proceedings and contingent liabilities.
 
Although these estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events and actions, actual results ultimately may differ from those estimates.
 
 
(a)
Provision for jackpots
 
Several of the Company’s licensees participate in progressive jackpot games.  Each time a progressive jackpot game is played, a preset amount is added to a cumulative jackpot for that specific game or group of games.  Once a jackpot is won, the progressive jackpot is reset with a predetermined amount.  The Company is liable for funding the jackpot wins as well as amounts required to reset the progressive jackpot from the pool of funds collected and accrues the jackpot amount for all games on a monthly basis.  The reset amount is accrued, up to the predetermined amount, as wagering occurs.  The accrual for the jackpot at the reporting date is included in trade payables and accrued liabilities.
 
The Company regularly performs an analysis of the accumulation of jackpot funds and amounts required to address jackpot payouts.
 
 
(b)
Useful life of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets
 
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets are depreciated or amortized over their useful lives.  Useful lives are based on management’s estimates of the period that the assets will generate revenue, which are periodically reviewed for continued appropriateness.
 
Changes to estimates can result in significant variations in the amounts charged to the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income/(loss) in specific periods.
 
 
(c)
Share-based compensation
 
The Company has a share-based remuneration scheme for employees.  The fair value of share options is estimated by using the Black-Scholes model on the date of grant incorporating assumptions regarding risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, volatility factor of the expected market price of the Company’s shares and the expected life of the options.
 
 
(d)
Income taxes
 
The Company is subject to tax in multiple jurisdictions and judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes.  The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes.  Deferred income 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 and operating loss carry-forwards.  Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantively enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred income tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment or substantive enactment date.
 
 
(e)
Fair value of financial instruments
 
The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments that are not quoted using valuation techniques.  Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including discount rates and estimates for future cash flows.  In that regard, the derived fair value estimates cannot always be substantiated by comparison with independent markets and, in many cases, may not be capable of being realized immediately (see note 21).

Legal proceedings and contingent liabilities
 
The Company is involved in certain claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course and conduct of business, including intellectual property matters.  Management assesses such claims and, if considered likely to result in material exposure and, where it is probable that there will be an outflow of economic benefit, provisions for loss are made based on management’s assessment of the likely outcome.  Management does not provide for claims that are considered unlikely to result in a significant loss, claims for which the outcome is not determinable or claims where the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated.  Any settlements or awards under such claims are provided for when reasonably determinable.  Adjustments will be made to the accrual for such amounts as new information is obtained or the claim settled.
 
4.
Changes in accounting estimates
 
The Company licenses various royalty rights, generally on an exclusive basis, from several owners of intellectual property rights.  These rights are used to produce games for use in Hosted Casino and also as Branded Games.  Generally, the arrangements require material prepayments of minimum guaranteed amounts which have been recorded as prepaid expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of financial position.  These prepaid amounts are amortized over the life of the arrangement as gross revenue is generated or on a straight-line basis if the underlying games are expected to have an effective royalty rate greater than the agreed amount.  The amortization of these amounts is recorded as a reduction in revenue.
 
The Company regularly reviews its estimates of future revenues under its license arrangements and, during 2010, the review identified that it was appropriate to begin amortizing certain of these royalties on a straight-line basis, such that substantially all of these royalties are amortized on a straight-line basis.  For the three months ended June 30, 2011, amortization of $853 (2010: $940) was recorded as a reduction of revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, amortization of $1,706 (2010: $1,237) was recorded as a reduction of revenue in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).
 
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company paid net royalties of $579 (2010: $1,443).  During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company paid net royalties of $1,638 (2010: $2,489).  The company is committed to make further royalty payments of $1,588, of which $959 relates to the six months ending December 31, 2011 (see note 19).

The impairment losses are included in the impairment of intangible assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).
 
In January 2007, the Company acquired the poker brand and the customer list of Parbet.  The total cash consideration paid was $11,770, with $11,746 allocated to the brand and $1,332 allocated to the customer list.  In 2008, due to decreasing poker revenues and reduced expectations of the Parbet.com brand, the Company determined that the carrying amounts of the intangible assets exceeded their fair value and recorded an impairment loss of approximately $7,214.
 
In 2010, as a result of reduced expectations of the Parbet brand, the Company reviewed the intangible assets for impairment.  The Company completed a valuation of the intangible assets, using probability-weighted net cash flows expected from the Parbet brand and discounting these cash flows to present value at a discount rate that consideredthe degree of risk or uncertainty associated with the realization of the estimated net revenues.  Using this approach, the Company determined that the carrying amounts of the intangible assets exceeded their fair value and recorded an impairment loss of $2,042.
 
In August 2007, the Company acquired 100% of the assets and operations of Casino.co.uk, a gaming portal, for a purchase price of $6,098, including $182 related to the costs of acquisition.  In 2010, as a result of reduced expectations of the Casino.co.uk portal, the Company reviewed the intangible assets for impairment.  The Company completed a valuation of the intangible assets, using probability-weighted net cash flows expected from the Casino.co.uk portal and discounting these cash flows to present value at a discount rate that consideredthe degree of risk or uncertainty associated with the realization of the estimated net revenues.  Using

The Company acquired control over all of the issued and outstanding common shares of CryptoLogic Inc., an Ontario company, which, through the Arrangement, became an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.  As consideration for the acquisition, the Company issued either an equivalent amount of its Common Shares or, in the case of taxable Canadian residents, exchangeable shares of CEC, an indirect subsidiary of the Company.  The CEC shares can be exchanged by the holders for an equal number of CryptoLogic Limited Common Shares at any time.
 
 
As a result of the reorganization, a total of 12.6 million CryptoLogic Limited Common Shares and 1.3 million CEC shares were issued.  Since June 1, 2007, 425,037 CEC shares have been exchanged, with the remaining shares of CEC being reflected as non-controlling interest as at June 30, 2011.  On June 1, 2014, the Company will redeem all of the then outstanding CEC shares in return for CryptoLogic Limited Common Shares.
 
11.
Share-based compensation
 
Under the share option plan, the Company may grant options to directors, officers and other key employees to purchase Common Shares.  All outstanding options of CryptoLogic Inc. as of the date of the Arrangement were fully assumed by CryptoLogic Limited under the same terms and conditions as originally granted by CryptoLogic Inc.  Under the plan, a maximum of 3,900,000 Common Shares may be issued.  The exercise price of the options may not be less than the market value of the underlying Common Shares on the date of grant.  The Company generally grants share options with an exercise price at the closing price on the date of grant.  There were 1,030,962 common shares available to be issued under the share option plan as at June 30, 2011 (December 31, 2010: 1,256,712).  Options typically vest over a period of three or four years, as determined at the date of grant, and the term of the options may not exceed five years.
 
Historically, the Company has granted options with an exercise price at the closing price on the Toronto Stock Exchange on the date of grant.  Since the Company’s Common Shares are now more actively traded on NASDAQ, the Company has granted options with an exercise price at the closing price on NASDAQ on the date of grant.

The Company expenses the cost of all share option grants, determined using the fair value method.  The estimated fair value of the options is recorded over the periods that the options vest.  The fair value of options granted was estimated using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
 
  2011  2010
 Dividend yield   0.0%  0.0%
 Risk-free interest rate  0.3%  0.3%
 Expected volatility  75%  73%
 Expected life of options in years   3  3
 
The weighted average fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $0.72 (2010: $1.51).
 
Included in operating costs is the cost of share options in the amount of $63 (2010: $150).

Non-controlling interest
 
Pursuant to a business reorganization implemented by way of an Ontario, Canada Superior Court of Justice court approved plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) and approved by the shareholders on May 24, 2007, CryptoLogic Limited acquired control over all of the issued and outstanding common shares of CryptoLogic Inc., an Ontario company, which, through the Arrangement, became an indirect subsidiary of CryptoLogic Limited.  As part of the Arrangement, CryptoLogic Limited issued either an equivalent amount of its Common Shares or, in the case of taxable Canadian residents, exchangeable shares of CryptoLogic Exchange Corporation (“CEC”), an indirect subsidiary of CryptoLogic Limited.  The CEC shares are, as nearly as practicable, the economic equivalent of CryptoLogic Limited Common Shares.  These CEC shares participate equally in voting and dividends with the shareholders of the Company.  No additional shares of CEC will be issued after June 1, 2007.
 
As part of its transition to IFRS, the Group elected to restate only those business combinations that occurred on or after January 1, 2010; accordingly, the Arrangement has been accounted for using the continuity of interest method under previous GAAP, which recognizes CryptoLogic Limited as the successor entity to CryptoLogic Inc.

These condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flows as if the Company has always carried on the business formerly carried on by CryptoLogic Inc. and its subsidiaries, with all assets and liabilities recorded at the carrying values of CryptoLogic Inc.  The interest held by CEC shareholders has been presented as non-controlling interest in these condensed consolidated financial statements, as required under IFRS.  As a result of the Arrangement, a total of 12.6 million and 1.3 million shares of the Company and CEC were issued, respectively.
 
The shares issued by CEC are considered a non-controlling interest of the Company for accounting purposes and, consequently, a proportionateamount of the Company’s shareholders’ equity isrecorded separately as non-controlling interest on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position and a similar proportionateshare of the profit or loss associated with subsidiaries directly or indirectly owned by CEC is included in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income/(loss) as non-controlling interest. In addition, dividends paid to CEC shareholders reduce non-controlling interest on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position.  For accounting purposes, when CEC shares are exchanged, the proportionateshare of the non-controlling interest recorded on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position is reduced and share capital increased based on the pro-rata number of shares exchanged to the total number of CEC shares outstanding.  Since June 1, 2007, a total of 425,037 CEC shares have been exchanged for the Company’s shares.

Segment reporting
 
The Company provides a comprehensive solution including software, network operations, administrative and marketing consulting services to licensed gaming operators that allows licensees to provide online casino and poker games as well as licensees of Branded Games and considers these to be one operating and reporting segment.
 
The Company reviews performance by reference to group-wide reporting measures and the revenues derived from the following products:
 
 
Hosted Casino
 
Branded Games
 
Poker
 
Other
 
The Company licenses various royalty rights, generally on an exclusive basis, from several owners of intellectual property rights.  These rights are used to produce games for use in Hosted Casino and also as Branded Games.  Generally, the arrangements require material prepayments of minimum guaranteed amounts which have been recorded as prepaid expenses in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of financial position.  These prepaid amounts are amortized over the life of the arrangement as gross revenue is generated or on a straight-line basis if the underlying games are expected to have an effective royalty rate greater than the agreed amount.  The amortization of these amounts is recorded as a reduction in revenue.

Reorganization
 
The Company announced a plan for reorganization of its business in 2009 after completing a comprehensive review.  As a result of that review, the Company decided to reduce costs by outsourcing non-core activities, including integrating its poker network with one of the world’s leading gaming technology and services companies, transitioning certain functions to lower cost jurisdictions and eliminating certain redundant functions.  In 2010, the Company commenced an additional reorganization plan consolidating its Cyprus activities and the majority of its UK activities at a new location in Malta, together with headcount reductions across all locations.
 
The following is a summary of the reorganization accrual:
 
 
 Included in trade payables and accrued liabilities, December 31, 2010   $ 54

Earnings/(loss) per Common Share
 
Earnings/(loss) per share is calculated using the two-class method, whereby Common Shares of the Company and the fully-participating exchangeable common shares of CEC are used to determine the weighted average number of shares outstanding for both basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share.
 
The earnings/(loss) attributable to the Common Shares in calculating the basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share is as follows:

Basic and diluted earnings/(loss) per share has been calculated by dividing the earnings/(loss) by the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during the period.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, options to purchase 389,250 Common Shares were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share as the exercise price exceeded the average market price of the Common Shares for the period.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, potentially dilutive securities have been excluded, as they would be anti-dilutive due to the recorded loss.

Financial instruments
 
The fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their carrying amounts at the reporting date.
 
The nominal value less any estimated credit adjustments for financial assets and liabilities with a maturity of less than one year are assumed to approximate their fair values.  The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate available to the Company for similar financial instruments.
 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss
 
A financial asset is classified at fair value through profit or loss if it is classified as held for trading or is designated as such upon initial recognition.  Financial assets are designated at fair value through profit or loss if the Company manages such investments and makes purchase and sale decisions based on their fair value in accordance with the Company’s documented risk management or investment strategy.  Upon initial recognition, attributable transaction costs are recognized in profit or loss as incurred.  Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are measured at fair value and changes therein are recognized in profit or loss.
 
Loans and receivables
 
Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market.  Such assets are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, loans and receivables are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses.
 
Loans and receivables comprise trade and other receivables.

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash, restricted cash, security deposits and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.
 
Available-for-sale financial assets
 
Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are designated as available-for-sale and that are not classified in any of the previous categories.
 
Subsequent to initial recognition, they are measured at fair value and changes therein, other than impairment losses and foreign currency differences on available-for-sale equity instrument, are recognized in other comprehensive income and presented within equity in the fair value reserve.  When an investment is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss in other comprehensive income is transferred to profit or loss.
 
Trade payables and accrued liabilities
 
Such financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value plus any directly attributable transaction costs.  Subsequent to initial recognition, these financial liabilities are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method.

Financial risk management
 
 
(a)
Overview
 
The Company is exposed to interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, and currency risk arising from the financial instruments held.
 
The Company’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and controls, and to monitor risks and adherence to limits.
 
Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities.
 
 
(b)
Interest rate risk
 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in market interest rates.  The Company is exposed to interest rate risk principally on its cash and cash equivalents which generally have maturity dates of less than 90 days.  The Company has no interest-bearing debt.  The Company’s management monitors the interest rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly.
 
At the reporting date, the interest rate profile of interest-bearing financial instruments was:
 
   
As at
June 30,
2011
   
As at
December 31,
2010
 
Variable rate instruments:
           
 Financial assets   $ 16,087     $ 17,168  
 
The weighted average effective interest rate on its cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2011 was 0.11% (2010: 0.34%).
 
Sensitivity analysis
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of 100 basis points in interest rates would have increased income by $35 (2010: $51).  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, an increase of 100 basis points in interest rates would have increased income by $22 (2010: $21).  This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular foreign exchangerates, remain constant.  For an equivalent decrease, there would be an equal and opposite impact on the income/(loss) and total comprehensive income/(loss).

(c)
Credit risk
 
Credit risk arises when a failure by counterparties to discharge their obligations could reduce the amount of future cash inflows from financial assets on hand at the reporting date.  The Company has no significant concentration of credit risk.  The Company has policies in place to ensure that sales of services are made to customers with an appropriate credit history and monitors on a continuous basis the ageing profile of its receivables.  Cash balances are held with high credit quality financial institutions and the Company has policies to limit the amount of credit exposure to any financial institution.
 
The Company does not have any material accounts receivable balances greater than 90 days outstanding.  As a result, the Company believes that its accounts receivable represent a low credit risk and has never recorded a material expense associated with a credit risk exposure.
 
The Company holds investments, according to Company investment policy, only in banks carrying an S&P rating of BBB+/A-3+ and higher or government guaranteed banks with a similar rating.
 
 
(d)
Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that arises when the maturity of assets and liabilities does not match.  An unmatched position potentially can increase the risk of losses.  The Company has procedures with the object of minimizing such losses such as maintaining sufficient cash and other highly liquid current assets.
 
The following tables detail the Company’s remaining contractual maturity for its financial liabilities.  The tables have been drawn up based on the undiscounted cash flows of financial liabilities based on the earliest date on which the Company can be required to pay.  The table includes both interest and principal cash flows.

(e)
Currency risk
 
Currency risk is the risk that the value of financial instruments will fluctuate due to changes in foreign exchange rates.  Currency risk arises when future commercial transactions and recognized assets and liabilities are denominated in a currency that is not the functional currency of the Company.  The Company is exposed to currency risk arising from various currency exposures primarily with respect to the British pound, euro and Canadian dollar.  The Company’s management monitors the foreign exchange rate fluctuations on a continuous basis and acts accordingly.

Sensitivity analysis
 
Gross balance sheet exposure:
 
A 10% strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in the above table (gross balance sheet exposure) at June 30, 2011 would have increased the income by approximately $24(at December 31, 2010: decreased the loss by $481).  This analysis assumes that all other variables remain constant and represents the Company’s gross balance sheet exposure at June 30, 2011.  A 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar against the same would have had an equal but opposite effect.
 
Net revenue exposure:
 
A 10% strengthening on average of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in the above table for the three months ended June 30, 2011 would have decreased revenue, and correspondingly decreased income, by approximately $848(2010: $447).A 10% strengthening on average of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in the above table for the six months ended June 30, 2011 would have decreased revenue, and correspondingly increased loss, by approximately $1,090 (2010: $912).  This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remained constant during the quarter, and represents the exposure of

the Company’s revenues denominated in foreign currencies to the relative strength of its functional currency.  A 10% weakening of the U.S. dollar against the same would have had an equal but opposite effect.
 
Expense exposure:
 
A 10% strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in the above table for the three months ended June 30, 2011 would have decreased expenses, and correspondingly increased income, by approximately $633 (2010: $1,170).  A 10% strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the currencies in the above table for the six months ended June 30, 2011 would have decreased expenses, and correspondingly increased income, by approximately $1,245 (2010: $2,266).  This analysis assumes that all other variables, in particular interest rates, remained constant during the quarter, and represents the exposure of the

Foreign exchange:
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized a total foreign exchange gain of $22 (2010: $98).  For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized a total foreign exchange gain of $98 (2010: $458).  Foreign exchange gains and losses recognized in the period are recorded in net finance costs in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).

Explanation of transition to International Financial Reporting Standards
 
As stated in note 2, these are the Company’s first condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS.
 
The accounting policies set out in note 2 have been applied in preparing the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the comparative information presented in these financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010 and in the preparation of an opening IFRS condensed consolidated statement of financial position at January 1, 2010 (the Company’s date of transition).
 
In preparing the opening IFRS statement of financial position, the Company has adjusted amounts reported previously in financial statements prepared in accordance with Canadian GAAP (previous GAAP).  An explanation of how the transition from previous GAAP to IFRS has affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and notes that accompany the tables.
 
The guidance for the first time adoption of IFRS is set out in IFRS 1 First-time Adoption of International Financial Reporting Standards.  IFRS 1 provides for certain mandatory exceptions and optional exemptions for first-time adopters of IFRS.  The Company elected to take the following IFRS 1 optional exemptions:
 
 
To apply the requirements of IFRS 3 Business Combinations prospectively from the Company’s date of transition.
 
To apply the requirements of IFRS 2 Share-based Payments only to equity instruments granted after November 7, 2002 which had not vested at the date of transition.

Three and six months ended June 30, 2011
 
 
A.
Share-based payments
 
The Company has a share option plan for directors, officers and other key employees.  Under Canadian GAAP, share option grants were accounted for as capital transactions at the time of the grant and were reflected as share options in the total equity attributable to the shareholders of the Company.  The fair value of the options was measured at grant date using the Black-Scholes pricing model, and was recognized over the period that the employee earns the options.  The fair value was recognized as an expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss) with a corresponding increase in equity.  The amount recognized as expense was adjusted to reflect the number of share options expected to vest.  The Company did not estimate forfeitures in determining the expense to be recognized over the service period and forfeitures were accounted for as they occurred.
 
Under IFRS, share options for directors, officers and other key employees are measured initially, based on the fair value of the options, using an option-pricing model.  Each vesting instalment over the vesting period of the options is accounted for as a separate arrangement and the Company estimates the number of options for which the requisite service is expected to be rendered.
 
B.
Deferred tax
 
In January 2007, the Company acquired the poker brand and the customer list of Parbet and the assets and operations of Casino.co.uk, a gaming portal.  Included in the allocation of the purchase price, the Company recorded future income tax liabilities.
 
Under IFRS, a deferred tax liability is not recognized if it arises from the initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction that is not a business combination and, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting profit nor taxable profit.
 
C.
Non-controlling interest
 
Under Canadian GAAP, the Company classified non-controlling interest (minority interest) as a separate component between liabilities and equity in the condensed consolidated statements of financial position.
 
Under IFRS, non-controlling interest is classified as a component of equity separately disclosed from the parent shareholders’ equity.
 
In addition, the Company has elected to avail of the exemption under IFRS 1 not to retrospectively restate any business combinations under IFRS 3 Revised.
 
D.
Property, plant and equipment
 
Under Canadian GAAP, the Company classified computer software licenses and capitalized software development costs as property, plant and equipment.
 
Under IFRS, computer software licenses and capitalized software development costs are classified as intangible assets.
 
E.
User funds held on deposit
 
Under Canadian GAAP, the Company classified user funds held on deposit as a separate component of non-current assets.  Under IFRS, user funds held on deposit are reclassified as current assets.
 
F.
Finance costs
 
Under Canadian GAAP the company classified foreign exchange gains and losses as a component of operating expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income/(loss).  Under IFRS, foreign exchange gains and losses other than those arising on financial instruments measured at fair value through the profit and loss are recorded as a component of net finance income/costs.  Finance costs are shown on the face of
