NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



Note 1. Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information has been prepared by DigitalTown, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Accordingly, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of this financial information have been included.  Financial results for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole or any other interim period.  This financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2014.


Note 2. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:


Nature of Business and Going Concern


The Company was founded in 1982 under the laws of the State of Minnesota as Command Small Computer Learning Center, Inc., a computer training company and operated under several different names in the computer hardware and training sector. In 2005, the Company began acquiring domain names.  On March 1, 2007, the Company changed its name to DigitalTown, Inc. and began developing a business plan to develop a platform to monetize the domain names.  The Company’s headquarters are located at 11974 Portland Avenue, Burnsville, MN 55337, and its telephone and facsimile numbers are (952) 890-2362 and (952) 890-7451, respectively.  The Company's Internet address is www.digitaltown.com.  The Company is traded in the over-the-counter market under the ticker DGTW.


The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company has a working capital deficit, recurring losses, and negative cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  


At November 30, 2014, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $28,631,576.  Subsequent to November 30, 2014, the Company has received no proceeds from its stock subscriptions receivable. The Company anticipates that expected future proceeds from its stock subscriptions receivable, additional financing through the sale of its common stock or other equity-based securities, and additional sales and/or leases of existing domain names will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure needs through at least November 30, 2015.  In the event that the Company is unable to obtain additional capital in the future, the Company would be forced to further reduce operating expenses and/or cease operations altogether.

Principles of Consolidation


The Company files consolidated financial statements that include its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tiger Media and The School Network, Inc.  All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Accounts Receivable


Accounts receivable arose from the sale of and commission earned from display advertising.  The Company evaluates collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors including the age of the receivable or a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial conditions.  In these circumstances, the Company records an allowance to reduce the receivable to an amount it deems collectible.  The Company has determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts is not necessary as of November 30, 2014.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue when the following four criteria have been met:

·

Persuasive evidence that an agreement exists

·

Delivery has occurred

·

The price is fixed and determinable

·

Collectability is reasonably assured


The Company recognizes revenue from certain third party agreements which allow display advertising to be placed on individual spirit sites within DigitalTown’s network.  Per these agreements, the Company receives commissions based on a percentage of the per click or per-impression revenue generated by these ads.  The Company recognizes these commissions received as revenue.


Deferred Revenue


Deferred revenue is comprised of contractual billings in excess of recognized revenue and payments received in advance of revenue recognition from customers for which services have not been delivered.


Intangible Assets – Domain Names/Website Development Costs


Domain name costs are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 350-50) guidance pertaining to Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, Website Development Costs.  Certain modules and components of the Company’s overall website development



5




DigitalTown, Inc.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



are ready for their intended use and the Company’s resulting websites are currently operational. Accordingly, the annual domain name renewal fees are currently being amortized over one year and the purchase of any new domain names are the only amounts being capitalized.  Previously, during the infrastructure development stage of its websites, the Company capitalized the purchase of new domain names and the annual domain name renewal fees.  Additionally, since the ownership of each domain name can be renewed for a nominal renewal fee each year prior to their expiration date, the useful lives of the domain names are deemed to be indefinite and no amortization of the capitalized costs for the domain names will be recorded.  


Website development costs are accounted for in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 350-40) guidance pertaining to Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, Internal-Use Software which requires that all internal and external costs incurred to develop the internal-use software necessary to operate the websites be capitalized.  The guidance further states, amortization should begin when an individual module or component of the overall internal-use software is ready for its intended use.  The cost of such module or component will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, as determined by the Company, after taking into account the effects of obsolescence, technology, competition and other economic factors.  The Company has components of its website development that are operational and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a three-year life.


Impairment of Long-Lived Assets


Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment and intangible assets – domain names/website development costs are reviewed for impairment whenever changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized in the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset.  


Income Taxes


Deferred tax assets (net of any valuation allowance) and liabilities resulting from temporary differences, net operating loss carry-forwards and tax credit carry-forwards are recorded using an asset-and-liability method.  Deferred taxes relating to temporary differences and loss carry-forwards are measured using the tax rate expected to be in effect when they are reversed or are realized.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be ultimately realized.  The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the related future benefits.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to FASB guidance.  This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.  The Company’s adoption of these provisions specifically related to uncertain tax positions resulted in no cumulative effect adjustment.  The Company believes its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained upon examination and, accordingly, no reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties have been recorded at November 30, 2014

DigitalTown, Inc.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



or February 28, 2014.  In accordance with the guidance, the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in the future, interest related to the underpayment of income taxes will be classified as a component of interest expense and any related penalties will be classified in operating expenses in the statements of operations.  The Company has three open years of tax returns subject to examination.


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees, directors and consultants on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period of the awards.  The compensation expense for the Company's stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of the grant of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.


The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This option pricing model involves a number of assumptions, including the expected lives of stock options, the volatility of the public market price for the Company's common stock and interest rates.


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The new guidance requires that share-based compensation that require a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards and that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation costs should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in this Update either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

DigitalTown, Inc.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10: Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation, to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity associated with the incremental reporting requirements of development stage entities. The amendments in this update remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, thereby improving financial reporting by eliminating the cost and complexity associated with providing that information. The amendments in this Update also eliminate an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic 810, Consolidation, for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of investment equity that is at risk. The amendments to eliminate that exception simplify U.S. GAAP by reducing avoidable complexity in existing accounting literature and improve the relevance of information provided to financial statement users by requiring the application of the same consolidation guidance by all reporting entities. The elimination of the exception may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a reporting entity that has an interest in an entity in the development stage. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 should be applied retrospectively except for the clarification to Topic 275, which shall be applied prospectively. For public companies, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-10 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In July 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-11: Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carry-forward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carry-forward Exists. The new guidance requires that unrecognized tax benefits be presented on a net basis with the deferred tax assets for such carry-forwards. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new provisions to have a material impact on its financial condition or results of operations.

Note 3. Deferred Officer Compensation


Richard Pomije, CEO, CFO and Chairman of the Company has elected to forego a portion of his salary at various times due to the Company’s limited operating funds. These amounts do not accrue interest and are due and payable as funds become available in the future. During the three months ended November 30, 2014, the Company recorded $37,500 of deferred officer compensation and made payments of $11,300 to Richard Pomije. During the nine months ended November 30, 2014, the Company recorded $112,500 of deferred officer compensation and made payments of $14,300 to Richard Pomije. The total balance recorded as deferred officer compensation at November 30, 2014 and February 28, 2014, was $331,392 and $233,192, respectively.


Note 4. Stockholders’ Equity


Stock Transactions


During the three months ended November 30, 2014, the Company entered into stock purchase agreements and issued 268,000 restricted common shares at $0.25 per share, for total cash proceeds of $67,000.

The weighted average remaining exercise period for the warrants as of November 30, 2014 is 3.56 years.


On October 4, 2014 and November 4, 2014, 5,000 stock purchase warrants expired on each date. The warrants were issued to a stockholder for a late payment fee on October 5, 2013 and November 5, 2013.

The stock options may be granted to directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors of the Company.  Options granted under this plan are non-qualified stock options and have exercise prices and vesting terms established by the Board of Directors at the time of each grant.  Vesting terms of the outstanding options range from immediate to four years from the date of grant.  The terms of the options range from five to ten years from the date of grant.


For the nine months ended November 30, 2014, the Company granted 25,000 options to an employee with a term of 10 years and the options vested on the grant date of March 18, 2014. The fair value of the Company’s stock options have been estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, which requires assumptions as to expected dividends, the option’s expected life, volatility and risk-free interest rate at the time of the grant.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The total fair value of the stock options granted by the Company for the nine months ended November 30, 2014 was $9,857.


Total stock compensation expense for all option grants was $(41,125) and $(190,368) for the three months ended November 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $67,851 and $370,589 for the nine months ended November 30, 2014 and 2013. This expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense. As of November 30, 2014, the Company has not recorded any tax benefit from this non-cash expense due to the Company having a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.  The compensation expense impacted the three months ended November 30, 2014 and 2013 basic earnings per common share by $0.001 and $0.007, respectively, and the nine months ended November 30, 2014 and 2013 basic earnings per common share by $(0.002) and $(0.013).  There remains $14,035 of total unrecognized compensation expense, which is expected to be recognized over future periods through February 3, 2015.

Effective September 1, 2014, the existing lease was terminated and the two parties agreed to a month-to-month agreement requiring rental payments of $1,050 per month.

Note 9. Earnings (Loss) Per Share


The Company computes earnings per share using two different methods, basic and diluted, and presents per share data for all periods in which statements of operations are presented. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.


The following tables provide a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in calculating basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and nine-month periods ended November 30, 2014 and 2013:

Future lease revenue for these 19 domain names for the remaining 59 months of the lease term would equal $16,815 before an allowance for early cancelations and other related administrative fees. For the comparable period, revenue mainly consisted of commissions generated from advertising on our websites of $451.  Cost of revenue consisted of amortization of prepaid annual domain name renewal fees of $42,529 for 2014 compared to $50,092 for 2013, server/bandwidth expense of $7 for 2014 and $10 for 2013, and amortization of website development fees of $0 for 2014 and $21,888 for 2013.

NINE MONTHS ENDED NOVEMBER 30, 2014 AND 2013

For the comparable period, revenue mainly consisted of commissions generated from advertising on our websites of $1,003.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the most current nine months decreased by $596,655 to $296,383 compared to a year ago.  Stock compensation expense, included in selling, general and administration



17






expenses, was $67,851 for the nine months ended November 30, 2014, compared to $370,589 for the nine months ended November 30, 2013, a decrease of $302,738, compared to a year ago.  Excluding non-cash stock compensation expense for the two comparable periods, selling, general, and administrative expenses were $228,532 for the nine months ended November 30, 2014, compared to $522,449 for the nine months ended November 30, 2013.  The decrease of $293,917 was primarily due to a decrease in payroll expense of $191,253, a decrease in professional fees of $27,072 and a $32,258 decrease in benefits expense.  The Company’s overall net loss for the current nine months decreased by $718,332 to $436,314.

·

Beginning October 5, 2009, and each month thereafter, 1/36 payments are due on the 5th of every month.

·

The Company, at its option, may call up to 1/12 of the (gross) receivable note per month if the preceding 30-day average trading price is at or above $7.00 per share.  Minimum trading volume must be 5,000 shares per day.

In summary, we believe our current cash reserves, the amounts we expect to collect on our outstanding stock subscriptions receivable, future proceeds from the issuance of our common stock and proceeds from the sale and/or lease of current domain names should be sufficient to enable us to operate for the next 12 months.  In the event that we are unable to collect our stock subscriptions receivable as needed or raise additional capital through the sale of our common stock or sell and/or lease additional domain names on acceptable terms, we would be forced to reduce operating expenses and/or cease operations altogether.


Critical Accounting Policies


The discussion and analysis of DigitalTown, Inc.’s financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  Management reviews its estimates on an ongoing basis.  Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions 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. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  While DigitalTown Inc.’s significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 to its consolidated financial statements, management believes the following accounting policies to be critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its financial statements:


Intangible Assets – Domain Names/Website Development Costs


Domain name costs are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 350-50) guidance pertaining to Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, Website Development Costs.  Certain modules and components of the Company’s overall website development are ready for their intended use and the Company’s resulting websites are currently operational. Accordingly, the annual domain name renewal fees are currently being amortized



20






over one year and the purchase of any new domain names are the only amounts being capitalized.  Previously, during the infrastructure development stage of its websites, the Company capitalized the purchase of new domain names and the annual domain name renewal fees.  Additionally, since the ownership of each domain name can be renewed for a nominal renewal fee each year prior to their expiration date, the useful lives of the domain names are deemed to be indefinite and no amortization of the capitalized costs for the domain names will be recorded.  


Website development costs are accounted for in accordance with the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 350-40) guidance pertaining to Intangibles-Goodwill and Other, Internal-Use Software which requires that all internal and external costs incurred to develop the internal-use software necessary to operate the websites be capitalized.  The guidance further states, amortization should begin when an individual module or component of the overall internal-use software is ready for its intended use.  The cost of such module or component will be amortized on a straight-line basis over its estimated useful life, as determined by the Company, after taking into account the effects of obsolescence, technology, competition and other economic factors.  The Company has components of its website development that are operational and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over a three-year life.


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees and directors on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period of the awards.  The compensation expense for the Company's stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of the grant of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.


The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This option pricing model involves a number of assumptions, including the expected lives of stock options, the volatility of the public market price for the Company's common stock and interest rates.


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements is included in Note 2 to the current period’s consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION


Any statements contained herein related to future events are forward-looking statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.  DigitalTown, Inc. undertakes no obligation to update any such statements to reflect actual events.


ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


The Company has not entered into, and does not expect to enter into, financial instruments for trading or hedging purposes.  The Company does not currently anticipate entering into interest rate swap and/or similar instruments.  Our primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is to changes in interest rates, which would only impact interest income earned on such instruments.  As of November 30, 2014, the Company did not have any material currency exchange or interest rate risk exposure.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.


Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of November 30, 2014, of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13(a)-13(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”).  The purpose of this evaluation was to determine whether as of the evaluation date our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC”), under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on their evaluation, our management has concluded, as previously discussed in Item 9A of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2014, that material weaknesses continue to exist in our internal control over financial reporting as of November 30, 2014, and as a result our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.  Notwithstanding the material weaknesses that continue to exist as of November 30, 2014, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”).


 (b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

Management continues to evaluate the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting to ensure that the design and implementation of corrective procedures are adequate to remediate the previously identified material weaknesses from our Form 10-K at February 28, 2014.  Due to the small number of employees dealing with general administrative and financial matters and the expenses associated with increases to remediate the disclosure controls and procedures that have been identified, the Company continued to operate without changes to its internal controls over financial reporting for the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q while continuing to evaluate and improve to remediate the material weaknesses at an appropriate cost benefit basis.

During the fiscal quarter ended November 30, 2014, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
