Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Duo World Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Successor” or “Duo”) a private company, was organized under the laws of the state of Nevada on September 19, 2014. Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DSSL” or “Predecessor”), a Sri Lanka based company, was incorporated on 22nd September 2004, in the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, as a limited liability company. Duo Software (Pte.) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DSS” or “Predecessor”), a Singapore based company, was incorporated on 5th June 2007 in the Republic of Singapore as a limited liability company. DSS also includes its wholly owned subsidiary, Duo Software India (Private) Limited (India) which was incorporated on 30th August 2007, under the laws of India.

 

On December 3, 2014, Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (DSSL) and Duo Software Pte. Limited (DSS) executed a reverse recapitalization with Duo World Inc. (Duo). Duo (Successor) is a holding company that conducts operations through its wholly owned subsidiaries DSSL and DSS (Predecessors) in Sri Lanka, Singapore and India. The consolidated entity is referred to as "the Company". The Company, having its development center in Colombo, has been in the space of developing products and services for the subscription-based industry. The Company’s application (“Duo Subscribe”, “Duo Contact”, “Digin”, “Facetone” CloudCharge and SmoothFlow) provide solutions in the space of Data Analytics, Customer Life Cycle Management, Subscriber Billing and Work Flow.

 

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures necessary for a comprehensive presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair consolidated financial statements presentation.

 

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report, which contains the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended March 31, 2016. The interim results for the period ended December 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

 

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

Duo World Inc. is the parent company of its 100% subsidiaries Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (DSSL) and Duo Software Pte Limited (DSS). Duo Software Pte. Limited is the parent company of its 100% subsidiary Duo Software India (Private) Limited (India). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated 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 disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future non-confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates relate to the timing and amounts of revenue recognition, the recognition and disclosure of contingent liabilities and the collectability of accounts receivable.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, competition and potential risk of business failure. Product revenues are concentrated in the application software industry, which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant technological changes in the industry or customer requirements, or the emergence of competitive products with new capabilities or technologies, could adversely affect operating results

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various high quality financial institutions and we monitor the credit ratings of those institutions. The Company’s sales are primarily to the companies located in Sri Lanka, Singapore, Indonesia and India. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, and the risk with respect to trade receivables is further mitigated by the diversity, both by geography and by industry, of the customer base. Accounts receivable are due principally from the companies under stated contract terms.

 

Provisions

 

A provision is recognized when the Company has present obligations as a result of a past event. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and reliable estimate can be made of amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted at their present value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

 

Accounts Receivable and Provision for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company recognizes accounts receivable in connection with the products sold and services provided and have strong policies and procedures for the collection of receivables from its clients. However, there are inevitably occasions when the receivables due to the Company cannot be collected and, therefore, have to be written off as bad debts. While the debt collection process is being pursued, an assessment is made of the likelihood of the receivable being collectable. A provision is, therefore, made against the outstanding receivable to reflect that component that may not become collectable. The Company is in the practice of provisioning for doubtful debts based on the period outstanding as per the following:

 

Trade receivables outstanding:  Provision 
Over 24 months   100%
Over 18 months   50%
Over 15 months   25%
Over 12 months   10%
Over 9 months   5%

 

Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, there were no cash equivalents.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currencies of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are their local currencies. For financial reporting purposes, these currencies have been translated into United States Dollars ($) and/or USD as the reporting currency. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign functional currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate on the balance sheet date and equity balances are translated at historical rates. Revenues, costs and expenses in foreign functional currencies are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of shareholders’ deficit as “accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)”. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive income / (loss) as other income (expense).

Fixed assets

 

Fixed assets (including leasehold improvements) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated salvage value is considered as NIL. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated benefit period of the related assets, which may not exceed 15 years, or the lease term, if shorter. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which are not considered improvements and do not extend the useful life of the property and equipment, are expensed as incurred. In case of sale or disposal of an asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated financial statements.

 

Useful lives of the fixed assets are as follows:

 

Furniture & Fittings   5 years 
Improvements to lease hold assets   Lease term 
Office equipment   5 years 
Computer equipment (Data Processing Equipment)   3 years 
Website development   4 years 

 

For the financial year ending March 31, 2016, the useful life of Computer Equipment and Website development were assumed to be 5 years.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events or 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 a 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 by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of by sale would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs related to the sale, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

 

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Revenue Recognition, Deferred& Accrued Revenue

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related services in accordance with ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC Topic 605 sets forth guidance as to when revenue is realized or realizable and earned, which is generally, when all of the following criteria are met:

 

Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. Evidence of an arrangement generally consists of a contract or purchase order signed by the customer.
   
Delivery has occurred or services have been performed. Services are considered delivered as the work is performed or, in the case of maintenance, over the contractual service period. The Company uses written evidence of customer acceptance to verify delivery or completion of any performance terms.
   
The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable. The Company assesses whether the sales price is fixed or determinable based on payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment.
   
Collectability is reasonably assured. The Company assesses collectability primarily based on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and related analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history, economic conditions in the customer’s industry and geographic location and general economic conditions. If we do not consider collection of a fee to be probable, we defer the revenue until the fees are collected, provided all other conditions for revenue recognition have been met.

 

The Company typically licenses its products on a per server, per user basis with the price per customer varying based on the selection of the products licensed, the number of site installations and the number of authorized users. Currently, Duo is offering three products from which it generates its revenue; they are “Duo Contact”, “Duo Subscribe” and “Facetone”. In the case of “Duo Contact”, Duo offers license to use software to its clients under an agreement. Invoices are raised monthly over the term of agreement, and it recognizes revenue monthly over the term of the underlying arrangement. In the case of “Duo Subscribe” and “Facetone”, Duo sells its software license along with software implementation and annual maintenance services under an agreement with various clients. The Company raises invoices on a key milestone basis, as defined in the agreement. Revenue recognition is based on stage of completion basis. Revenues from consulting and training services are typically recognized as the services are performed.

 

The Company offers annual maintenance programs on its licenses that provide for technical support and updates to the Company’s software products. Maintenance fees are bundled with license fees in the initial licensing period and charged separately for renewals of annual maintenance in subsequent years. Fair value for maintenance is based upon either renewal rates stated in the contracts or separate sales of renewals to customers. Revenue is recognized ratably, or daily, over the term of the maintenance period, which is typically one year.

 

For the nine months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company received only cash as consideration for sale of licenses and related services rendered.

 

For the nine months ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had following concentrations of revenue with customers:

 

Customer  December 31, 2016   December 31, 2015 
Megamedia   38.51%   32.22%

Deferred Revenue - Deferred revenue represents advance payments for software licenses, services, and maintenance billed in advance of the time revenue is recognized. As at December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, deferred revenue was $23,312 and $9,954 respectively.

 

Accrued Revenue/Unbilled Accounts Receivable - Accrued revenue/Unbilled accounts receivable primarily occur due to the timing of the respective billings, which occur subsequent to the end of each reporting period. As at December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, unbilled/accrued revenues were $20,681 and $31,154 respectively.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue mainly includes purchases, product implementation costs, amortization of product development, developer support and implementation, and consultancy fees related to the products offered by Duo. The aggregate cost related to the software implementations, including support and consulting services pertaining to the revenue recognized during the reporting period, is recognized as Cost of Revenue.

 

Product research and development

 

Product research and development expenses consist primarily of salary and benefits for the Company’s development and technical support staff, contractors’ fees and other costs associated with the enhancements of existing products and services and development of new products and services. Costs incurred for software development prior to technological feasibility are expensed as product research and development costs in the period incurred. Once the point of technological feasibility is reached, which is generally upon the completion of a working prototype that has no critical bugs and is a release candidate development costs are capitalized until the product is ready for general release and are classified within "Intangibles assets" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes capitalized software development costs using the greater of the ratio of the products’ current gross revenues to the total of current gross revenues and expected gross revenues or on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic life of the related product, which is typically four years.

 

During the nine months ending on December 31, 2016 and 2015, product research and development cost of $294,507 and $189,174 respectively, were capitalized as “Intangible assets”.

E. Financial condition as at December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016

 

F. Liquidity and capital reserves

 

G. Milestones for next twelve months

 

A.Business overview:

 

Duo World Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Successor” or “Duo”) a private company, was organized under the laws of the state of Nevada on September 19, 2014. Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DSSL” or “Predecessor”), a Sri Lanka based company, was incorporated on September 22, 2004, in the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, as a limited liability company. Duo Software (Pte.) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DSS” or “Predecessor”), a Singapore based company, was incorporated on June 5, 2007 in the Republic of Singapore as a limited liability company. DSS also includes its wholly-owned subsidiary, Duo Software India (Private) Limited (India) which was incorporated on August 30, 2007, under the laws of India.

Effective December 3, 2014, DSSL and DSS executed a reverse recapitalization with Duo. Duo (Successor) is a holding company that conducts operations through its wholly owned subsidiaries DSSL and DSS (Predecessors) in Sri Lanka, Singapore and India. The consolidated entity is referred to as “the Company”. The Company, having its development center in Colombo, Sri Lanka, has been in the business of developing products and services for the subscription based industry. The Company’s applications (“DuoSubscribe” & “DuoCLM”) run on its core platform “Duo World” and is a provider of solutions for its customers for Customer Life Cycle Management, Subscriber Management, Customer Care, Billing and Contact Center Management.

 

Our authorized capital consists of 100,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value, of which 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.001 par value.

 

B.Critical Accounting Policies:

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.

 

Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations because they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of the matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related services in accordance with ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. ASC Topic 605 sets forth guidance as to when revenue is realized or realizable and earned, which is generally, when all of the following criteria are met:

 

  Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists. Evidence of an arrangement generally consists of a contract or purchase order signed by the customer.
     
  Delivery has occurred or services have been performed. Services are considered delivered as the work is performed or, in the case of maintenance, over the contractual service period. The Company uses written evidence of customer acceptance to verify delivery or completion of any performance terms.
     
  The seller’s price to the buyer is fixed or determinable. The Company assesses whether the sales price is fixed or determinable based on payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment.
     
  Collectability is reasonably assured. The Company assesses collectability primarily based on the creditworthiness of the customer as determined by credit checks and related analysis, as well as the customer’s payment history, economic conditions in the customer’s industry and geographic location and general economic conditions. If we do not consider collection of a fee to be probable, we defer the revenue until the fees are collected, provided all other conditions for revenue recognition have been met.

The Company typically licenses its products on a per server, per user basis with the price per customer varying based on the selection of the products licensed, the number of site installations and the number of authorized users. Currently, Duo is offering three products from which it generates its revenue; they are “Duo Contact”, “Duo Subscribe” and “FaceTone”. In the case of “DuoContact”, Duo offers license to use software to its clients under an agreement. Invoices are raised monthly over the term of agreement, and it recognizes revenue monthly over the term of the underlying arrangement. In the case of “Duo Subscribe” and “FaceTone”, Duo sells its software license along with software implementation and annual maintenance services under an agreement with various clients. The Company raises invoice on key milestone basis as defined in the agreement. Revenue recognition is based on stage of completion basis. Revenues from consulting and training services are typically recognized as the services are performed.

 

The Company offers annual maintenance programs on its licenses that provide for technical support and updates to the Company’s software products. Maintenance fees are bundled with license fees in the initial licensing period and charged separately for renewals of annual maintenance in subsequent years. Fair value for maintenance is based upon either renewal rates stated in the contracts or separate sales of renewals to customers. Revenue is recognized ratably, or daily, over the term of the maintenance period, which is typically one year.

 

Provisions

 

A provision is recognized when the company has present obligations as a result of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and reliable estimate can be made of amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted at their present value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

 

We are exposed to financial market risks, primarily changes in interest rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

 

Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. All of our revenues are normally generated in U.S. dollars or Sri Lankan rupees. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, which are primarily in Asia and to a lesser extent in the U.S. Our results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. To date, we have not engaged in any foreign currency hedging strategies. As our international operations grow, we plan to generate revenues in foreign currencies and we will continue to reassess our approach to manage our risk relating to fluctuations in currency rates.

Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in the last three fiscal years. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases.

The Company had revenues amounting to $282,385 and $351,183, respectively, for three months ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Following is a breakdown of revenues for both periods:

The company is no longer marketing DuoCLM and DuoSubscribe actively, as the newer products are being introduced to the market. FaceTone is an advanced version of DuoCLM, and it is generating a lot of interest in the market, because of its superior features and flexibility.
