Overview
 
In 2014 the Company continued to focus its efforts on generating more revenues, increasing shareholder value through increased investment or acquisition in portfolio companies, and managing growth of our invested companies.  Highlights for the year include:

-  
On January 14, 2014, the Company signed a global Machine to Machine (M2M) software licensing and hardware supply agreement with GPS Holdings Ltd, a privately held US company.

-  
On May 5, 2014 the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of Nimbo LLC, a privately held US company that derives its revenues from selling hardware and software services for real-time GPS asset tracking and management solutions for the automotive and fleet industries 
 
-  
On June 16, 2014 the Company announced the signing of a partnership agreement between Nimbo LLC and Auto Knight Motor Club, a subsidiary of Fortegra Financial, for the provision of emergency roadside assistance and stolen vehicle recovery services in North America.
 
-  
Record annual revenues of $724,624, up 398% from the previous year.
 
-  
Record gross profits of $298,435, up 105% from the previous year.

As a result, IGEN exited 2014 with increased assets, a positive balance sheet, record revenues and gross profits, increased investment in M2M companies, new licensing agreements, and several global distribution agreements in place.  Though the Company incurred net losses in 2014, we believe our continued revenue and gross profit growth, combined with our recent March 25 2015 listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange, puts the Company on a solid footing for future profitable growth and the ability to raise the required capital to do so.

The reader is cautioned that the latter comment is forward-looking information, and actual results may vary to the extent that the company may not achieve profitable growth nor raise any required capital.
 
Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Current Assets and Liabilities, Working Capital

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had total current assets of $412,404, an increase of $223,027 or 118% from the end of the year previous. This increase was due primarily to consolidation of $127,503 of receivables and $14,102 in inventories from Nimbo LLC, combined with an increase in cash of $44,663. Nimbo LLC receivables consist of monies owed to Nimbo by customers for products and services sold.  Current assets include $170,918 in receivables owed by Gogiro Internet Group for sales commissions and a combination of development services, IT services and management services provided by IGen to Gogiro.  73% of the Companies current assets are receivables, down from 89% at the end of 2013.
 
The Company’s current liabilities as of December 31, 2014 were $460,080, an increase of $296,318 from the $163,762 reported at the end of the year previous.   The most significant contributors to this increase were an additional $183,071 from consolidation of  payables from Nimbo LLC, an increase of $55,592 due to a convertible debenture coming to term, and an increase of $54,484 from the consolidation of deferred revenues of Nimbo LLC.  76% of the Companies consolidated current liabilities are payables and accrued liabilities, down from 100% at the end of 2013.  Nimbo LLC payables, which make up 59% of the Company’s consolidated payables, are primarily monies owed for cellular carrier services and device hardware.  The remaining payables are made up of contractor fees, legal fees, auditing fees, accounting fees, and include $59,180 in management and consulting fees owed to the Company’s executive officers.
 
IGEN ended 2014 with a negative working capital of ($47,676), down from $25,615 reported at the end of 2013.
 
Total Assets and Liabilities, Net Assets
 
As of December 31, 2014 the Company’s total assets was $1,183,943, an increase of $599,596 from the year prior.  This includes the increase of $223,027 in current assets described previously, and $505,508 in goodwill associated with the acquisition of Nimbo LLC Refer to Note 2 to the financial statements for a specific breakdown of the purchase price allocation.  The Company continues to evaluate the assets and liabilities assumed in this acquisition, and may record adjustments to the purchase price allocation in the future.  The asset increases described above were balanced by a $150,000 impairment of the Company’s equity position in Machlink Inc.  The Company has deemed the value of the investment cannot be recovered.

As of December 31, 2014 the Company’s total liabilities were $540,494, up from $345,110 reported the year prior.  The increase was due to the increase in current liabilities previously discussed, and the addition of non-current liabilities of $80,414 from Nimbo LLC incurred through issuance of a promissory note.
 
 
The above resulted in net assets as of December 31, 2014 being $643,449, a 169% increase of $404,212 from the $239,237 reported at the end of the year prior.

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $6,062,422.

The company is continuing in its efforts to increase its asset base and raise funds to improve its working capital position.

As of the date these financial statements were issued the Company believes it has adequate working capital and projected net revenues and cash flows to maintain existing operations for approximately two months without requiring additional funding. The Company’s business plan is predicated on raising further capital for the purpose of further investment and acquisition of targeted technologies and companies, to fund growth in these technologies and companies, and to expand sales and distribution channels for companies it currently owns or is invested. It is anticipated the Company will continue to raise additional capital through private placements or other means in the both the near and medium term.

The reader is cautioned that the Company’s belief in the adequacy of its working capital, the continuation and growth of future revenue, the ability of the Company to operate any stated period without additional funding, and the ability to successfully raise capital are forward looking statements for which actual results may vary, to the extent that the company may need capital earlier than anticipated and/or may not be able to raise additional capital.

As of December 31, 2014 the Company had a net loss of $748,223 (or $0.03 per basic & diluted share), an increase of $154,321 over the net loss reported for the year prior.  However the 2014 net loss includes the $150,000 impairment of the Company’s investment in Machlink Inc.
 
Cash Flows
 
As of December 31, 2014 the Company saw a net increase in cash of $44,663.  The primary source of cash was net proceeds from financing activities of $431,192, (compared with $270,050 in 2013) and the acquisition of $42,672 cash through business acquisition of Nimbo LLC.  The cash provided by financing activities was offset by cash used in operating activities of $424,439 (year 2013 - $291,751).

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To:           the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
 IGEN Networks Corp.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of IGEN Networks Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.  These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IGEN Networks Corp. as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred losses in developing its business, and further losses are anticipated.  The Company requires additional funds to meet its obligations and the costs of its operations.  These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans in this regard are described in Note 1.  The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

IGEN Networks Corp
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013
(expressed in U.S. dollars)
 

1.
Nature and continuance of operations
 
IGEN Networks Corp, (“IGEN”, or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on November 14, 2006.  The Company has been primarily in a development state since inception pursuing a variety of different technologies and markets. Commencing January 1, 2012, the Company is no longer a Development Stage Company, as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (”ASC”) 915, Development Stage Entities, after the Company took on new investment, new management, and a new business model in September of 2011.   IGEN’s primary business is investing in and managing for growth private high-tech companies that offer products and services in the domains of wireless broadband, Software as a Service, and Machine to Machine solutions.   A secondary part of IGEN’s business is negotiating distribution agreements with relevant organizations and selling their products and services through the distribution channels of our portfolio companies, or newly developed IGEN sales channels. Commencing May 5, 2014, the Company was also in the business of providing vehicle tracking and recovery solutions to the automotive and power sport industries after the acquisition of Nimbo, LLC (Note 2).

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which imply the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company generated revenue for the first time in the fourth quarter of 2011 and continued to grow revenue into 2014.  The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued financial support from its shareholders, on the ability of the company to grow its revenue base, on its ability to successfully grow the companies in which it is invested, and on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity financing to both support the latter objectives and to invest in and grow new companies. The Company has recurring losses since inception and had accumulated losses of $6,062,422 as at December 31, 2014.  These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Although there are no assurances that management’s plans will be realized, management believes that the Company will be able to continue operations into the future.  These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2.
Business Acquisition

Effective May 5, 2014 (the “Acquisition Date”), the Company took control of Nimbo, LLC (“Nimbo”), a corporation incorporated in Texas U.S.A., by acquiring 100% of the voting equity interest (the “Acquisition”) of Nimbo. Nimbo is in the business of providing vehicle tracking and recovery solutions to the automotive and power sport industries. The Company intends on applying human resources and capital to help growing Nimbo LLC.  The Company issued 2,500,000 common shares as consideration of the Acquisition. The fair value of these common shares was $475,000, which was determined on the basis of the closing price of Igen’s common share on the Acquisition Date.

In accordance with the FASB ASC 805, the Acquisition has been accounted for as a purchase of a business and the Company is identified as the acquirer. The fair value of the purchase consideration of $475,000 was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on the estimated fair values on the date of acquisition as described below:

3.     Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
a)
Basic of presentation and consolidation

These consolidated financial statements and related notes include the records of IGEN Networks Corp., its wholly owned subsidiary, IGEN Business Solutions Inc (incorporated in Canada) and Nimbo LLC (incorporated in USA).

As discussed in Note 2, as of the completion of the Acquisition on May 5, 2014, the Company has started to consolidate the results of operation and cash flow of Nimbo to the Company’s consolidated financial statement.  As a result, the consolidated statements of operations and consolidated statements of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2013 (collectively the “2013 Comparative Figures”) include only the accounts of Igen.

All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. These consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, expressed in US dollars, and, in management’s opinion, have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized as in the following:
 
b)
Use of estimates

The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to donated expenses, and deferred income tax asset valuations. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company’s estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

c)
Loss per share

Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted earnings per share give effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including stock options, using the treasury stock method, and convertible preferred stock, using the if-converted method. In computing diluted earnings (loss) per share, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted earnings (loss) per share exclude all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Because the effect of conversion of the Company’s dilutive securities is anti-dilutive, diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share for the periods presented.

The Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10-50, “Fair Value Measurements”. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of fair value measurement and enhances disclosure requirements for fair value measures. The three levels are defined as follows:
- Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
- Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the assets or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
- Level 3 inputs to valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair measurement.
 
The fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying values due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Foreign currency transactions are primarily undertaken in Canadian dollars. The fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs and the fair value of derivative liability with convertible debt is determined based on “Level 2” inputs. The financial risk is the risk to the Company’s operations that arise from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility to these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk. Financial instrument that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consists of cash. The Company places its cash in what it believes to be credit-worthy financial institutions.
 
e)
Equipment

Office equipment and computer are recorded at cost. Amortization is provided annually at rates and methods over their estimated useful lives as follows, except in the year of acquisition when one half of the rate is used. Management reviews the estimates of useful lives of the assets every year and adjust them on prospective basis, if needed.
 
 
Office equipment
20% declining balance
 
 
Computer
55% declining balance
 
 
Software
3 years straight line
 
 
Property, plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in the circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. If the total of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized for the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the asset during the year the impairment occurs. Subsequent expenditure relating to an item of office equipment is capitalized when it is probable that future economic benefits from the use of the assets will be increased.

 f)    Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when earned, specifically when all the following conditions are met:

- Services are provided or products are delivered to customers.
- There is clear evidence that an arrangement exists.
- Amounts are fixed or can be determined.
- The ability to collect is reasonably assured.
- There is no significant obligation for future performance.
- The amount of future returns can be reasonably estimated.

g)
Foreign currency transaction balances

The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. The consolidated financial statements of the Company are translated to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using the exchange rate prevailing at the balance sheet date. Gains and losses arising on translation or settlement of foreign currency denominated transactions or balances are included in the determination of income.

Assets and liabilities of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at the year-end exchange rates, and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates during the period. Exchange differences arising on translation are disclosed as a separate component of stockholders’ equity.

3.      Summary of Significant Accounting Principles (continued)

h)
Income taxes

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) has issued FASB ASC 740-10. FASB ASC 740-10 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with prior literature FASB Statement No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This standard requires a company to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based upon the technical merits of the position. If the more likely than not threshold is met, a company must measure the tax position to determine the amount to recognize in the financial statements. As a result of the implementation of this standard, the Company performed a review of its material tax positions in accordance with recognition and measurement standards established by FASB ASC 740-10.

Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax basis. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

i)
Stock-based compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation”, using the fair value method. All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable.

The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the fair value of stock-based awards. This model is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company’s expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of operations over the requisite service period.

j)
Inventories

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market with cost being determined on a first-in, first-Out (FIFO) basis.  Inventories as at December 31, 2014 were solely finished goods that can be resold. There was no provision for inventory recorded during the year ended December 31, 2014.

k)
Deferred revenue

As at December 31, 2014, the Company had deferred revenues of $54,484. Annual service renewal fees are recorded as a component of deferred revenue in the balance sheets at the inception of the contract and are recognized as revenue evenly over the contract period, which is generally one year.

l)    Changes in accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements

The Company has not adopted new accounting policies since it most recent year ended December 31, 2013.  The Company does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

Investment in an associates and Investment
 
Investment
The Company’s investment consists of 43 common shares of Machlink Inc. (“Machlink”) which is a private company conducting information technology business. The Company is not considered having significant influence in Machlink’s operations. The shares of Machlink do not have quoted market prices in an active market.  On December 31, 2013 and September 30, 2014, the Company’s investment in Machlink had a carrying value of $150,000 and $Nil which is the Company’s cost in this investment’s less impairment.

During the year ended December 31, 2014, this investment was fully written off as management determined the investment cannot be recovered and the Company recorded an impairment loss of $150,000.

Investment in an associate
Pursuant to an option agreement, the Company incurred $50,000 and $50,000 (totaling $100,000) to acquire 200,000 and 200,000 (totaling 400,000) common shares of Gogiro Internet Group (“Gogiro”), a private Canadian Company, on November 23, 2011 and October 17, 2012 respectively.

On March 12, 2013, the Company signed an agreement to acquire 2,078,080 shares of Gogiro through the issuance of 1,744,747 restricted common shares of the Company (the “Gogiro Acquisition”).  Neil Chan, CEO and Director of both companies, would exchange 2,000,000 Gogiro shares for 1,666,667 restricted common shares of the Company.  The proceeds of Gogiro Acquisition was $174,475 which was the fair value of the 1,744,747 restricted shares of the Company.

Upon the completion of the Gogiro Acquisition in March 2013, the Company’s interest on Gogiro increased to more than 30%.  As a result, the Company has changed its method to account for its investment in Gogiro from “cost less impairment value” method to equity method as the Company’s interest on Gogiro has surpassed 20% whereby the Company is considered having significant influence on Gogiro. The Company’s weighted average ownership on Gogiro was 31.12% and 30.44% during the March 12 to December 31, 2013 and Year Ended December 31, 2014 respectively. Consequently the Company has included Gogiro’s losses in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance to the percentage ownership (31.12% for fiscal 2013; 30.44% for fiscal 2014). In addition, gains and losses resulting from 'upstream' and 'downstream' transactions between IGEN and Gogiro are recognized in IGEN’s consolidated financial statements only to the extent of unrelated investors' interests in Gogiro. Changes in carrying value of the Company’s investment in Gogiro are as follows:

8.       Convertible debt and derivative liabilities
 
On May 4, 2013 and May 31, 2013, the Company issued two convertible debentures (“CDs”) in the principal of CAD$100,000 ($94,000) and CAD$50,000 ($ 47,000) respectively (totalling CAD$150,000 or $141,000). The CD with the principal of CAD$100,000 (“CD#1) and the CD with the principal of CAD 50,000 (“CD#2”) were agreed to mature on January 1, 2015 upon issuance.  These CDs are non-secured, carry interest of 14% per annum payable monthly or at term. Subject to the approval of the holder of the CDs, IGEN may convert any of all of the principal and/or interest at any time following the 6 month anniversary of the issuance date of the CDs into common shares of IGEN at a price per share equal to a 20% discount to the fair market value of IGEN’s common share.
 
As the CDs are denominated in Canadian dollars (a currency different from the functional currency of the Company) and the exercise prices are not fixed (a 20% discount to the fair market value of IGEN’s common share), a derivative is recognized as a liability. The derivative liability is recorded at fair value and re-measured each period with the movement being recorded as a gain or loss in consolidated income (loss).  The CDs are classified as a liability, less the portion relating to the derivative feature. As a result, the Company recorded derivative liabilities of $101,823 and convertible notes of $39,177 at dates of issuance of the CDs.
 
On March 31, 2014, the maturity of CD#1 was extended to July 1, 2015.  However, the CD#1 was exercised into 611,995 common shares of the Company in July 2014. As a result, the Company recorded a net gain of $1,467 to account for the extension and the exercise of the CD#1.
 
The Company records accretion expense over the term of the convertible notes up to their principal when these CDs come due.  During 2014, accretion expenses of $62,418 (2013 - $39,405) was recorded. Interest expense on the CDs is composed of the interest calculated on the face value of the CDs at 14% per annum which amounted to $12,574 during 2014 (2013 - $13,096).
 
During 2014, the Company recorded a gain on the change in fair value of the derivative liability of $98,992 (2013 - $2,831). The Continuity of these convertible debentures is as follows:

9.    Note payable

Non-current
During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued a promissory note with principal of $95,000 in exchange for a settlement of accounts payable of the same amount. This promissory is non-secured, will expire on December 31, 2016, and carries interest of 5% per annum.
 
The note payable was accounted for at amortized cost using the effective interest rate method with the effective interest      rate of 14% per annum. The debt discount of $16,163 was credited to Additional paid-in capital, debited to note payable and being amortized over the term of the note.
 
During the year ended December 31, 2014, there was an accretion expense of $1,577 (2013 - $Nil) in connection with the note recorded and the promissory note was accredited up to $80,414. The Company also accrued an interest of $1,197 (included in the Company’s accounts payable) during year 2014.
 
Current
As at December 31, 2014, the Company had a convertible debenture outstanding balance of $52,592 (Note 8 – CD#2) which has been matured on January 1, 2015. This CD#2 was not converted into the Company’s shares and changed into a non-secured payable on demand promissory note with interest rate of 14% per annum. As a result, this CD#2 has been reclassified from convertible debenture into promissory note as at December 31, 2014.
 
10.   Financial instruments

Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents. The Company deposits cash and cash equivalents with high credit quality financial institutions as determined by rating agencies.  As a result, credit risk is considered insignificant.

Currency Risk
The Company’s major expenses and payables are in United States dollars and are expected to continue to incur in United States dollars.  Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the United States dollar and other currency may have a material effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.  The Company is subject to foreign exchange risk for transactions in its Canadian subsidiary and its investment in Gogiro, a Canadian company, as at December 31, 2014. The Company does not actively hedge against foreign currency fluctuations.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company has cash balances and no interest bearing debt. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in high yield term deposits and bankers’ acceptance. The Company regularly monitors its cash management policy. As a result, interest rate risk is considered not significant.

10.  Financial instruments (Continued)
 
Liquidity Risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with its financial liabilities.

As at December 31, 2014, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $47,676 (December 31, 2013 – working capital of $25,615).

The Company has adopted FASB ASC 740-10 to account for income taxes.  The Company currently has no issues creating timing differences that would mandate deferred tax expense.  Net operating losses would create possible tax assets in future years.  Due to the uncertainty of the utilization of net operating loss carry forwards, an evaluation allowance has been made to the extent of any tax benefit that net operating losses may generate.  A provision for income taxes has not been made due to net operating loss carry-forwards of $4,664,000 and $4,111,000 as of December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, which may be offset against future taxable income through to 2034.
 
The Company did not have any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease within the next 12 months.

The tax years that remain subject to examination by major taxing jurisdictions are those for the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006.
 
 
Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
 
The Company did effect a change of accountants in 2010:  on March 5, 2010, the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors approved the dismissal of Child Van Wagoner & Bradshaw, PLLC (CVWB) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, and on the same date the audit committee engaged ACAL Group, which has since combined with A Chan & Company LLP, the Company’s current auditors, to serve as the Company’s independent accounting firm.

However there was no disagreements or any reportable events of the types described in paragraphs (a)(1)(iv) and (a)(1)(v) of Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K  in connection with this change, and there have been no disagreements with accountants over the past two years.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
The Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures with the participation of all the Company’s executives, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2014.  The conclusions of the Company’s principal executives was that the controls and procedures in place were effective such that the information required to be disclosed in our SEC reports was a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and b) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive offer and chief operation officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 
As of December 31, 2014, management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting.  The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintain adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company.  Internal control over financial reporting is a set of processes designed by or under the supervision of the Company’s CEO, COO and CFO (or executives performing equivalent functions) to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP and includes those policies and procedures that:
 
-  
pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions and dispositions of our assets;
-  
provide reasonable assurance our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of our financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors;
-  
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives.  In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control – Integrated Framework.  Based on that evaluation, they concluded that during the period covered by this report, though there are weaknesses in the Company’s internal controls, given the current size of the organization, such internal controls and procedures as were in place were adequately effective to detect the inappropriate application of US GAAP.

Item 9B. Other Information.
 
During the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 there was no information required to be reported on Form 8K which was not previously reported.

Compensation Committee Report
 
As a smaller reporting company, the Company is not required to report the Compensation Discussion and Analysis required by Item 402(b) of Regulation S-K, and as such there was no review or recommendation as to its inclusion in this report.
