Business Description and Basis of Presentation [Text Block]
1.
Introduction:
 
Nature of business
 
Kidoz Inc. is a kid-tech software developer and owner of the leading mobile KidSafe advertising network (www.KIDOZ.net), incorporated in Anguilla, British West Indies in
2005.
We help create a free and safe Internet for children, by enabling content producers to monetize their apps and video with ads. 
 
For Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM") and Carriers, the Company's KIDOZ Mode is the software solution that powers their youth-dedicated products, including custom content libraries, parental control and kid-friendly monetization.
 
The games on the Rooplay system are designed to both entertain and educate.  Children engaging with Rooplay learn technology, solve puzzles, paint pictures, practice language, learn math, and other educational games.  Kidoz Inc. is developing a content system with Rooplay that builds tech literacy and encourages early learning.
 
Rooplay will generate revenue for the Company from consumer subscriptions which customers pay to unlock the Rooplay game catalog and the licensing of our Rooplay games.
 
Kidoz Ltd.'s other mobile products, Garfield's Bingo (www.garfieldsbingo.com), and Trophy Bingo (www.trophybingo.com), are free-to-play mobile games live in the Apple, Google and Amazon App Stores.  The Company has generated revenue to-date from players making in-app purchases in Trophy Bingo and Garfield's Bingo.
 
Continuing operations
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which presumes the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities in the normal course of operations.  The application of the going concern basis is dependent upon the Company achieving profitable operations to generate sufficient cash flows to fund continued operations, or, in the absence of adequate cash flows from operations, obtaining additional financing.  The Company has reported income from operations for the year ended
December 31, 2020
and losses from operations for the year ended
December 31, 2019
and has an accumulated deficit of
$40,448,481
as at
December 31, 2020. 
This raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.
 
In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts and settlement of the liability amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheets is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do
not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue in existence.
 
Management continues to review operations in order to identify additional strategies designed to generate cash flow, improve the Company's financial position, and enable the timely discharge of the Company's obligations.  If management is unable to identify sources of additional cash flow in the short term, it
may
be required to further reduce or limit operations.
 
In
March 2020
the World Health Organization declared coronavirus COVID-
19
a global pandemic. This contagious disease outbreak, which has continued to spread, and any related adverse public health developments, has adversely affected workforces, economies, and financial markets globally, has led to an economic downturn. It has also disrupted the normal operations of many businesses, including the Company's. In early
March 2020,
the Company's employees commenced working from home and commenced social distancing. This outbreak has affected spending, thereby affecting demand for the Company's product and the Company's business and results of operations. It is
not
possible for the Company to predict the duration or magnitude of the outbreak and at this time its full effects on the Company's business, its future results of operations, or ability to raise funds.
