NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and instructions for Form 10-Q. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included. Operating results for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results for any other quarter or for a full year. In connection with the preparation of the condensed financial statements the Company evaluated subsequent events after the balance sheet date of March 31, 2013 through the filing of this report.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 contained in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission dated March 28, 2013.

2.   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Nature of operations

We are a software developer and distributor of financial market data and related services to a global marketplace. We specialize in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data content via the Internet. We develop and license software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets.

b) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Quotemedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quotemedia, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

c) Foreign currency translation and transactions

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of all our company's operations. Foreign currency asset and liability amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for equipment and intangible assets, which are remeasured at historical rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the period, except for expenses related to balance sheet amounts remeasured at historical exchange rates. Exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in income in the period in which they occur.

d) Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, on testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. Under the guidance, testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill has been simplified. The guidance allows an organization the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An organization electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the organization determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is “more likely than not” that the asset is impaired. The guidance is effective for impairment tests for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

3.   FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a) Fair value of financial instruments

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (referred to as Level 1), observable inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly (referred to as Level 2), and unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities (referred to as Level 3).

From time to time we utilize forward contracts that are measured at fair market value on a recurring basis based on Level 2 inputs. At March 31, 2013, the fair market value for forward contracts was an asset of $432 that was included in other current assets. We had no forward contracts outstanding at December 31, 2012.

b) Derivative instruments

A significant portion of our expenses are paid in Canadian dollars, therefore changes to the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollar affect our operating results. To manage this exchange rate risk, from time to time we utilize forward contracts to purchase Canadian dollars. Our Company policy limits contracts to maturities of one year or less from the date of issuance. We do not enter into foreign exchange forward contracts for trading purposes.

We account for derivatives and hedging activities in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, which requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument is dependent upon whether the derivative has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and on the type of hedging relationship.

7

QUOTEMEDIA, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

We have chosen not to elect hedge accounting for these forward contracts; therefore, changes in fair value for these instruments are immediately recognized in earnings and included in our foreign exchange gain (loss). The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts do, however, generally offset the impact of changes in the value of the underlying risk that they are intended to economically hedge.

The following table provides gross notional value of foreign currency derivative financial instruments and the related net asset or liability. The table presents the notional amount (at contract exchange rates) and the fair value of the derivatives in U.S. dollars:

	March 31, 2013				December 31, 2012
	Notional Amount		Net Asset (Liability)		Notional Amount		Net Asset (Liability)
Forward contracts	$	200,000	$	432	$	-	$	-

We are required to maintain a margin deposit with a foreign exchange corporation equal to 5% of the value of each forward contract outstanding. Margin deposits totaling $11,400 are included in other current assets on our March 31, 2013 balance sheet. We had no margin deposits related to forward contracts at December 31, 2012.

4.   RELATED PARTIES

The following table summarizes amounts due to related parties at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012:

	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Purchase of business unit	$	229,626	$	228,721
Computer hosting services		51,052		127,127
Office rent		972,267		970,729
Other		17,276		17,276
Loan		745,938		732,670
Lead generation services		975,110		951,133
Due to Management		3,766,147		3,587,480
	$	6,757,416	$	6,615,136

As a matter of policy all related party transactions are subject to review and approval by the Company’s Board of Directors. All amounts due to related parties have been classified as non-current liabilities as we do not expect to repay amounts due to related parties within a year of the March 31, 2013 balance sheet date. All repayments of amounts due to related parties must be approved by our Board of Directors. Repayments are subject to our company having sufficient cash on hand and are intended not to impair continuing business operations. Our related party creditors have agreed to these repayment terms. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Board approved repayment of $100,000 to related parties, which was paid during the quarter.

5.   STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount recognized.

Total estimated stock-based compensation expense, related to all of the Company’s stock-based awards, recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was comprised as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Sales and marketing	$	426	$	-
General and administrative		2,001		2,001
Total stock-based compensation	$	2,427	$	2,001

At March 31, 2013 there was $34,425 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based payments which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.70 years.

We calculate the fair value of stock options and warrants granted under the provisions of FASB ASC 718 using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Expected dividend yield		N/A		-
Expected stock price volatility		N/A		275	%
Risk-free interest rate		N/A		4	%
Expected life of options		N/A		5.0

As at March 31, 2013 all stock options and warrants have been granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant.

At March 31, 2013 the aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding was $310,917. The aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants exercisable was $299,632. The intrinsic value of stock options and warrants are calculated as the amount by which the market price of our common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option or warrant.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this report. We caution readers regarding certain forward looking statements in the following discussion, elsewhere in this report, and in any other statements, made by, or on behalf of our company, whether or not in future filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements are statements not based on historical information and which relate to future operations, strategies, financial results, or other developments. Forward-looking statements are necessarily based upon estimates and assumptions that are inherently subject to significant business, economic, and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control and many of which, with respect to future business decisions, are subject to change. These uncertainties and contingencies can affect actual results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of, our company. Uncertainties and contingencies that might cause such differences include those risk factors disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 and other reports filed from time to time with the SEC.

We disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements. All references to “we”, “our”, “us”, or “quotemedia” refer to QuoteMedia, Inc., and its predecessors, operating divisions, and subsidiaries.

This report should be read in conjunction with our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Overview

We are a developer of financial software and a distributor of market data and research information to stock exchanges, online brokerages, clearing firms, banks, media properties, public companies and financial service corporations worldwide. Through the aggregation of information from many direct data, news, and research sources, we offer a comprehensive range of solutions for all market related information provisioning requirements.

We have three general product lines: Data Feed Services, Interactive Content and Data Applications, and Portfolio Management Systems.

Our Data Feed Services consist of raw streaming real-time market data delivered over the Internet or via dedicated telecommunication lines, and supplemental fundamental, historical, and analytical data, keyed to the same symbology, which provides a complete market data solution to be offered to our customers. Currently, QuoteMedia’s Data Feed services include complete coverage of North American exchanges and over 70 exchanges worldwide.

Our Interactive Content and Data Applications consist of a suite of software applications that provide publicly traded company and market information to corporate clients via the Internet. Products include stock market quotes, fundamentals, historical and interactive charts, company news, filings, option chains, insider transactions, corporate financials, corporate profiles, screeners, market research information, investor relations provisions, level II, watch lists, and real-time quotes. All of our content solutions are completely customizable and embed directly into client Web pages for seamless integration with existing content.

12

Our Portfolio Management Systems consist of Quotestream, Quotestream Professional, Quotestream Mobile, and our Web Portfolio Management systems. Quotestream Desktop is an Internet-based streaming online portfolio management system that delivers real-time and delayed market data to both consumer and corporate markets. Quotestream has been designed for syndication and private branding by brokerage, banking, and Web portal companies. Quotestream’s enhanced features and functionality – most notably tick-by-tick true streaming data, significantly enhanced charting features, and a broad range of additional research and analytical content and functionality – offer a professional-level experience to non-professional users.

Quotestream Professional is designed specifically for use by financial services professionals, offering exceptional coverage and functionality at extremely aggressive pricing. Quotestream Professional features broad market coverage, reliability, complete flexibility, ultra low-latency tick-by-tick data, as well as completely customizable screens, advanced charting, comprehensive technical analysis, news and research data.

Quotestream Mobile is a true companion product to the Quotestream desktop products (Quotestream and Quotestream Professional) – any changes made to portfolios in either the desktop or wireless application are automatically reflected in the other.

A key feature of QuoteMedia’s business model is that all of our product lines generate recurring monthly licensing revenue from each client. Contracts to license Quotestream to our corporate clients, for example, typically have a term of one to three years and are automatically renewed unless notice is given at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the current license term. We also generate Quotestream revenue through individual end-user licenses on a monthly or annual subscription fee basis. Interactive Content and Data Applications and Market Data Feeds are licensed for a monthly, quarterly, annual, or biannual subscription fee. Contracts to license our Financial Data Products and Data Feeds typically have a term of one to three years and are automatically renewed unless notice is given 90 days prior to the expiration of the contract term.

Business environment and trends

The global financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and disruption in recent years. As a result, financial institutions globally have acted to control or reduce operational spending. Nevertheless, during this same period we have maintained positive overall revenue growth. While in some areas the anticipated impact of current market conditions may lead to a decision to reduce demand for market data and related services, we expect overall spending on financial information services will grow modestly over the next several years.

Plan of operation

Our plan of operation for the remainder of 2013 will focus on marketing Quotestream for deployments by brokerage firms to their retail clients, and pursuing further expansion into the investment professional market with Quotestream Professional. Licensing Quotestream Mobile as a companion to the Quotestream desktop products will also continue to be a focal point. We will also look to continue the growth of our Data Feed Services client base, and to increase the sales of its Interactive Content and Data Applications, particularly in the context of large-scale enterprise deployments encompassing solutions ranging across several product lines. We have a plan in place to manage costs to ensure that our ongoing expenditures are balanced with our revenue growth rate.

13

One of our larger clients, Penson Worldwide Inc., filed for Chapter 11 protection in January 2013 and is currently in the process of liquidating its assets. The loss of revenue from the Penson Worldwide Inc. contract and its affiliate companies negatively impacted our revenue growth for the first quarter of 2013. However, we expect a return to revenue growth for the 3rd and 4th quarters of 2013 based on new product deployments that have been recently completed or are near completion and on several new opportunities that are emerging for us in the marketplace.

In particular, the recent liquidation of one of our competitors is presenting important opportunities. AlphaTrade, a competitive provider of Web-based market data services, has ceased operations. As part of AlphaTrade’s liquidation proceedings, TMX Group has acquired AlphaTrade's customer list and, in cooperation with QuoteMedia, has approached AlphaTrade clients with the opportunity to replace AlphaTrade services with data services provided through TMX Group.

 We have a plan in place to manage costs to ensure that our ongoing expenditures are balanced with our revenue growth rate. Opportunistically, efforts will be made to evaluate and pursue the development of additional new products that may eventually be commercialized by our company. Although not currently anticipated, we may require additional capital to execute our proposed plan of operation. There can be no assurance that such additional capital will be available to our company, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Our future performance will be subject to a number of business factors, including those beyond our control, such as a continuation of the economic downturn and evolving industry needs and preferences as well as the level of competition and our ability to continue to successfully market our products and technology. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully implement our marketing strategy, continue our revenue growth, or achieve profitable operations.

Results of Operations

Revenue

	2013		2012		Change ($)			Change (%)
Three months ended March 31,
Licensing revenue	$	2,383,985	$	2,564,444	$	(180,459	)		(7	%)

Licensing revenue has decreased 7% when comparing the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. The decrease is primarily a result of lower Portfolio Management Systems revenue.

Interactive Content and Data Application revenue remained relatively unchanged; decreasing $14,751 (1%) when comparing the three month period ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

14

Our Portfolio Management System revenue decreased by a net of $165,709 (13%) when comparing the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012.

Corporate Quotestream revenue decreased $191,635 (20%) from the comparative period in 2012. One of our larger clients, Penson Worldwide Inc., filed for Chapter 11 protection in January 2013 and is currently in the process of liquidating its assets. The loss of revenue from the Penson Worldwide Inc. contract and its affiliate companies negatively impacted our Corporate Quotestream revenue for the first quarter of 2013.

The decrease in Corporate Quotestream revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 is also due to the expiration of our barter licensing agreement. Included in Portfolio Management System revenue in the comparative period is $90,000 of barter revenue earned from licensing of one of our portfolio management applications in exchange for advertising services. Our barter licensing agreement expired on June 30, 2012; therefore there was no barter revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013. See discussion regarding our barter licensing agreement below under “Sales and Marketing”.

Our individual Quotestream revenue increased by $25,926 (7%) from the comparative period, resulting from an increase in the number of subscribers and an increase in the average revenue per subscriber. The increase in subscribers is due mainly to acquiring customers of a competitor, AlphaTrade, who ceased operations in January 2013.

Gross profit	$	1,112,759		$	1,388,739		$	(275,980	)		(20	%)
Gross margin %		47	%		54	%

Our cost of revenue consists of fixed and variable stock exchange fees and data feed provisioning costs. Cost of revenue also includes amortization of capitalized application software costs. We capitalize the costs associated with developing new products once technological feasibility has been established.

Cost of revenue increased 8% when comparing the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. The increases are primarily due to increases in variable stock exchange, data feed, and bandwidth usage charges resulting from the growth in the number of Quotestream clients from the comparable period. The increase is also due to the acquisition of data content required to support the new products and features that we have recently developed and the amortization expense related to additional capitalized application software costs.

Overall, the cost of revenue increased as a percentage of sales, as evidenced by our gross margin percentage which decreased to 47% for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 from 54% in the respective comparative period in 2012.

Sales and Marketing

Sales and marketing consists primarily of sales and customer service salaries, investor relations, travel and advertising expenses. Sales and marketing expenses decreased $71,056 (15%) for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 when compared to the same period in 2012.

The decrease from the comparative period is primarily due to a decrease in noncash advertising costs. We had no noncash advertising expenses for the three month period ended 2013 compared to $90,000 of non-cash advertising costs in the same period in 2012. We received advertising credits with a large national magazine in exchange for subscription services until the Company’s barter licensing agreement expired on June 30, 2012.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries expense, office rent, insurance premiums, and professional fees. General and administrative expenses increased $13,606 (3%) for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 when compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is primarily due to an increase in bad debt expense from the comparative period in 2012.

Software Development

Software development expenses consist primarily of costs associated with the design, programming, and testing of our software applications prior to the establishment of technological feasibility. Software development expenses also include costs incurred to maintain our software applications.

Software development expenses increased $11,862 (4%) for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 when compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is due to an increase in salary expense for software development personnel. Salary expense for software development personnel increased from the comparative periods due to competitive salary adjustments made for existing employees and the hiring of additional software development personnel in 2013.

16

We capitalized $188,792 of development costs for the three months ended March 31, 2013, compared to $180,379 for the same period in 2012. These costs relate to the development of application software used by subscribers to access, manage, and analyze information in our databases. Capitalized costs associated with application software are amortized over their estimated economic life of three years.

Other Income and (Expense) Summary

	2013			2012
Three months ended March 31,
Foreign exchange gain (loss)	$	21,761		$	(34,176	)
Interest expense		(165,486	)		(152,615	)
Total other income and (expenses)	$	(143,725	)	$	(186,791	)

Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss)

We recognized foreign exchange gain of $21,761 for the three month period ended March 31, 2013, compared to foreign exchange loss of $34,176 for the same period in 2012. Exchange gains and losses primarily arise from the re-measurement of Canadian dollar monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars. The change in fair value for outstanding foreign exchange forward contracts is also included in foreign exchanges gains and losses as well as gains and losses recognized from foreign exchange forward contracts exercised during the period.

The foreign exchange gain for the three month period ended March 31, 2013 is primarily due to the gain arising from the re-measurement of Canadian dollar monetary assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars as we have a net Canadian dollar liability and the Canadian dollar depreciated slightly versus the U.S. dollar from December 31, 2012 to March 31, 2013.

Interest Expense

Interest is accrued on certain amounts owed to related parties. Interest expense increased for the three months ended March 31, 2013 due to additional accruals related to unpaid related party expenses incurred since the comparative period in 2012. Interest is accrued at 10% per annum. Interest income earned on cash balances is netted against interest income.

Provision for Income Taxes

For the three month period ended March 31, 2013, the Company recorded Canadian income tax expense of $992, compared to $1,496 in the comparative period in 2012.

17

Net Loss for the Period

As a result of the foregoing, net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $291,809 or $(0.00) per share compared to a net loss of $104,987 or $(0.00) per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our cash totaled $499,212 at March 31, 2013, as compared with $658,100 at December 31, 2012, a decrease of $158,888. Net cash of $30,708 was provided by operations for the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to the increase in accounts payable and amounts due to related parties, offset by the net loss for the period adjusted for non-cash charges. Net cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $189,596 resulting from capitalized application software costs and the purchase of new computer equipment. There were no financing activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2013.

Our current liabilities include deferred revenue of $522,823. The costs expected to be incurred to realize the deferred revenue in the next 12 months are minimal.

Our long term liabilities include $6,757,416 due to related parties. All repayments of amounts due to related parties must be approved by our Board of Directors. Repayments are subject to our company having sufficient cash on hand and are intended not to impair continuing business operations.

Based on the factors discussed above, we believe that our cash on hand and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to fund our current operations for at least the next 12 months. However, to implement our business plan may require additional financing. Additional financings may come from future equity or debt offerings that could result in dilution to our stockholders.

Our long-term liquidity requirements will depend on many factors, including the rate at which we expand our business, and whether we do so internally or through acquisitions. To the extent that the funds generated from operations are insufficient to fund our activities in the long term, we may be required to raise additional funds through public or private financing. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available or that, if it is available, it will be on terms acceptable to us.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Audit Committee, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we completed an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, we and our management have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures at March 31, 2013 were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC, and are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in these reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. In the three months ended March 31, 2013, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

We will consider further actions and continue to evaluate the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and internal controls and procedures on an ongoing basis, taking corrective action as appropriate. Management does not expect that disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls can prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable and not absolute assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. While management believes that its disclosure controls and procedures provide reasonable assurance that fraud can be detected and prevented, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

3 Months Ended

Mar. 31, 2013

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

a) Fair value of financial instruments

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (referred to as Level 1), observable inputs other than Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly (referred to as Level 2), and unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities (referred to as Level 3).

From time to time we utilize forward contracts that are measured at fair market value on a recurring basis based on Level 2 inputs. At March 31, 2013, the fair market value for forward contracts was an asset of $432 that was included in other current assets. We had no forward contracts outstanding at December 31, 2012.

b) Derivative instruments

A significant portion of our expenses are paid in Canadian dollars, therefore changes to the exchange rate between the U.S. and Canadian dollar affect our operating results. To manage this exchange rate risk, from time to time we utilize forward contracts to purchase Canadian dollars. Our Company policy limits contracts to maturities of one year or less from the date of issuance. We do not enter into foreign exchange forward contracts for trading purposes.

We account for derivatives and hedging activities in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, which requires that all derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet at their respective fair values. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument is dependent upon whether the derivative has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and on the type of hedging relationship.

We have chosen not to elect hedge accounting for these forward contracts; therefore, changes in fair value for these instruments are immediately recognized in earnings and included in our foreign exchange gain (loss). The fluctuations in the value of these forward contracts do, however, generally offset the impact of changes in the value of the underlying risk that they are intended to economically hedge.

The following table provides gross notional value of foreign currency derivative financial instruments and the related net asset or liability. The table presents the notional amount (at contract exchange rates) and the fair value of the derivatives in U.S. dollars:

	March 31, 2013				December 31, 2012
	Notional Amount		Net Asset (Liability)		Notional Amount		Net Asset (Liability)
Forward contracts	$	200,000	$	432	$	-	$	-

We are required to maintain a margin deposit with a foreign exchange corporation equal to 5% of the value of each forward contract outstanding. Margin deposits totaling $11,400 are included in other current assets on our March 31, 2013 balance sheet. We had no margin deposits related to forward contracts at December 31, 2012.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Nature of operations

We are a software developer and distributor of financial market data and related services to a global marketplace. We specialize in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data content via the Internet. We develop and license software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets.

b) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Quotemedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quotemedia, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

c) Foreign currency translation and transactions

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of all our company's operations. Foreign currency asset and liability amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for equipment and intangible assets, which are remeasured at historical rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the period, except for expenses related to balance sheet amounts remeasured at historical exchange rates. Exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in income in the period in which they occur.

d) Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, on testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. Under the guidance, testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill has been simplified. The guidance allows an organization the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An organization electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the organization determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is “more likely than not” that the asset is impaired. The guidance is effective for impairment tests for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Significant Accounting Policies Policies

Nature of operations

We are a software developer and distributor of financial market data and related services to a global marketplace. We specialize in the collection, aggregation, and delivery of both delayed and real-time financial data content via the Internet. We develop and license software components that deliver dynamic content to banks, brokerage firms, financial institutions, mutual fund companies, online information and financial portals, media outlets, public companies, and corporate intranets.

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Quotemedia, Ltd., a wholly owned subsidiary of Quotemedia, Inc. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Foreign currency translation and transactions

The U.S. dollar is the functional currency of all our company's operations. Foreign currency asset and liability amounts are remeasured into U.S. dollars at end-of-period exchange rates, except for equipment and intangible assets, which are remeasured at historical rates. Foreign currency income and expenses are remeasured at average exchange rates in effect during the period, except for expenses related to balance sheet amounts remeasured at historical exchange rates. Exchange gains and losses arising from remeasurement of foreign currency-denominated monetary assets and liabilities are included in income in the period in which they occur.

Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU No. 2012-02, on testing indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment. Under the guidance, testing the decline in the realizable value (impairment) of indefinite-lived intangible assets other than goodwill has been simplified. The guidance allows an organization the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test. An organization electing to perform a qualitative assessment is no longer required to calculate the fair value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset unless the organization determines, based on a qualitative assessment, that it is “more likely than not” that the asset is impaired. The guidance is effective for impairment tests for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012. We adopted this guidance on January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards that have been issued by the FASB or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 5. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

FASB ASC 718, Stock Compensation requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized as compensation expense over the service period (generally the vesting period) in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. The impact of forfeitures that may occur prior to vesting is also estimated and considered in the amount recognized.

Total estimated stock-based compensation expense, related to all of the Company’s stock-based awards, recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was comprised as follows:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Sales and marketing	$	426	$	-
General and administrative		2,001		2,001
Total stock-based compensation	$	2,427	$	2,001

At March 31, 2013 there was $34,425 of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based payments which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.70 years.

We calculate the fair value of stock options and warrants granted under the provisions of FASB ASC 718 using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:

	Three months ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Expected dividend yield		N/A		-
Expected stock price volatility		N/A		275	%
Risk-free interest rate		N/A		4	%
Expected life of options		N/A		5.0
Weighted average fair value of options granted		N/A	$	0.04

The following table represents stock option and warrant activity for the three months ended March 31, 2013:

				Weighted-
				Average
	Options and Warrants			Exercise Price
Outstanding at December 31, 2012		13,837,803		$	0.05
Stock options and warrants forfeited/expired		(110,000	)	$	0.04
Outstanding at March 31, 2013		13,727,803		$	0.05

The following table summarizes our non-vested stock option and warrant activity for the three months ended March 31, 2013:

$	0.11-0.40		500,000		1.63	$	0.40		500,000	$	0.40

As at March 31, 2013 all stock options and warrants have been granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the market value of the underlying common shares on the date of grant.

At March 31, 2013 the aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants outstanding was $310,917. The aggregate intrinsic value of options and warrants exercisable was $299,632. The intrinsic value of stock options and warrants are calculated as the amount by which the market price of our common stock exceeds the exercise price of the option or warrant.
