Note 2 - Basis of Presentation
The Company has prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All amounts in the consolidated financial statements are stated in U.S. dollars.
We have recast certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation, with no impact on consolidated net income or cash flows.
Going Concern
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $706,565 and $229,259 for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively; net cash provided by operations of $(391,511) and $(525,495) for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively; working capital deficit of $1,485,253 and $2,005,313 as of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively; outstanding statutory dues towards employee provident fund and employee trust fund of $194,835 and $243,442, as of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively; and a stockholders´ deficit of $1,616,543 and $2,859,460 as of December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively.

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and transactions of DSSL, DSS and DDPL (Predecessors) and Duo (Successor). Duo World Inc. is the parent company of its 100% subsidiaries Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (DSSL), Duo Software Pte. Limited (DSS) and 80% owned subsidiary of Dial Desk Pte Limited. The 80% of control was created 55% directly under the share purchase agreement signed on September 30, 2022 and % through Muhunthan Canagasooryam Director and shareholder of Duo. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
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 and assumptions 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 and assumptions. 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.
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 understated contract terms.
Provisions
A provision is recognized when the company has present obligations because of past event and when 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.
F-8 |
Accounts Receivable and Provision for Doubtful Accounts
The Company recognizes accounts receivable in connection with the products sold and services provided and has strong policies and procedures for the collection 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, 2022 and March 31, 2022, 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 converted into United States Dollars ($) and/or USD as the reporting currency. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign functional currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate on the balance sheet date and equity balances are converted at historical rates. Revenues, costs and expenses in foreign functional currencies are converted at the average rate of exchange during the period. Conversion 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).
Property and Equipment
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.
F-9 |
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 |
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 to sell, 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.
Post Retirement Benefit Plan
The Company has gratuity as post-employment plan for all the eligible employees. The recognition for the gratuity plan is as below:-
The expected postretirement benefit obligation (“EPBO”) is the actuarial present value (“APV”) as of a specific date of the benefits expected to be paid to the employee, beneficiaries, and covered dependents.
Measurement of the EPBO is based on the following:
1. Expected amount and timing of future benefits
2. Expected future costs
3. Extent of cost sharing
F-10 |
The EPBO includes an assumed salary progression for a pay-related plan. Future compensation levels represent the best estimate after considering the individual employees involved, general price levels, seniority, productivity, promotions, indirect effects, and the like.
The Accumulated postretirement benefit obligation (“APBO”) is the APV as of a specific date of all future benefits attributable to service by an employee to that date. It represents the portion of the EPBO earned to date. After full eligibility is attained, the APBO equals the EPBO. The APBO also includes an assumed salary progression for a pay-related plan.
Revenue Recognition, Deferred & Accrued Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related services. The Company revenue recognition policy follows guidance from Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue from contract with customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company transferred promised goods and services to the customer and in the amount that reflect the consideration to which the company expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.
The following five steps are followed in recognizing revenue from contracts:
● | Identify the Contract(s) with the customer; | |
● | Identify the performance obligation of the contract; | |
● | Determine the transaction price; | |
● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and; | |
● | Recognize revenue when or as the company satisfies a performance obligation |
The consideration for the transaction [performance obligation(s)] is determined as per the agreement, contract or invoice for the services and products.

Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control of promised products or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products or services. We enter into contracts that can include various combinations of products and services, which are generally capable of being distinct and accounted for as separate performance obligations. Revenue is recognized net of allowances for returns and any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
Nature of Products and Services
Licenses for on premise software– The Company sells a perpetual nonexclusive license to the customer and enables the customer to install and use the software and its documentation. Price per customer varies based on the selection of the products licensed, the number of site installations and the number of authorized users. The products offered on this basis are “Duo Subscribe” and “Facetone-enterprise.” The Company charges an Implementation fee on key milestone basis for on premise customers upon completion of performance obligation.
Enterprise software solutions– The Company distributes its software product ‘Facetone- hosted version” with third party telecommunication companies. It is a revenue model where the telecommunication provider hosts the Company’s software applications and makes them available to its customers over the Internet for a monthly subscription fee. The Company charges telecommunication providers a monthly license fee calculated according to number of licenses sold.
Cloud services- The Company sells its product Smoothflow as a “SAAS” product (Software-as-a-Service) and services are provided on a monthly subscription model.
AMC Services- The Company offers annual maintenance programs on its licenses that provide for technical support and updates to the Company’s software products. Initial annual maintenance fees are bundled with license fees in the initial licensing period and recognized when the performance obligation of license fee is met. 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, 2022 and 2021, the Company received only cash as consideration for sale of licenses and related services rendered.
For the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company had following concentrations of revenues with customers:
Customer | December 31, 2022 | December 31, 2021 | ||||||

Significant Judgments
The Company’s contracts with customers include multiple Software products and services to deliver and in the most of the contract the price of the separately identifiable features are stated separately. In the event the price of the multiple product and services are not mentioned in the agreement the Company allocate transaction price estimating the standalone selling price of the promised Products and the services. The determination of standalone selling price for each performance obligation requires judgments. The Company determines standalone selling price for performance obligations based on overall pricing strategies, which consider market in which the company operates, historical data analysis, number of users of the product or services, size of the customer and the market price of the hardware used.
Contract Balances
When the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing for contract with customers, differed revenue and accrued revenue/ unbilled accounts receivables are recognized by the Company. Revenue under Software Implementation contracts are invoiced on stages of completion as stipulates in the agreement and the revenue recognized when the performance obligations are met and customer sign the user acceptance test (UAT). The Company invoices software license fee and royalty fee at the end of the period according to the customer agreement and accrued revenue/ unbilled revenue is recognized for the relevant period. The maintenance fee is invoiced beginning of the period and the Company recognizes as deferred revenue in the financial statements and is ratably recognized over a period of service.
The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects our best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. We determine the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence.

Segment Information
The Company has determined that its Chief Executive Officer is its Chief Operating Decision Maker. The Company’s executive reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis for the purposes of assessing the performance and making decisions on how to allocate resources. Accordingly, the Company has determined that it operates in a single reportable segment.
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, 2022 and March 31, 2022, the Company recognized deferred revenue $8,207 and $1,211, 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, 2022 and March 31, 2022, unbilled /accrued revenues were $603 and $813, respectively.
The Company had no contract liabilities and assets recognized for cost to fulfill a requirement of a customer as at December 31, 2022.
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 the Company. 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 ended December 31, 2022, product development cost of $ 200,000 were capitalized as intangible assets and no product research and development cost was capitalized in the same period 2021.
Advertising Costs
The Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising cost of $ 8,030 was expensed in the nine months ended December 31, 2022 and no expenses were incurred during the nine months ended December 31, 2021.

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. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized in the current financials due to recurring tax losses and the uncertainty of the realization of the tax allowances.
Withholding taxes deducted from the source of income from foreign operations are debited to profit and loss account due to non-refundable status.
Comprehensive Income
The Comprehensive Income Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes standards for reporting and presentation of comprehensive income and its components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive income from April 1, 2015 through December 31, 2022, includes only foreign currency conversion gains (losses), and is presented in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income.
Changes in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) by Component during the periods ending on December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022 were as follows:
Foreign Currency Translation gains (losses) | ||||
Balance, March 31, 2022 | $ | 1,245,916 | ||
Translation rate gain (loss) | 315,749 | |||
Balance, June 30, 2022 | $ | 1,561,665 | ||

Leases
Lessor
There are no significant changes in recognizing the Lessor under ASC 842 compared to the previous model. Changes were made to the accounting guidance of lessor and lessee, and the key aspects of the introduced model is to align the recognition criteria with new revenue recognition standard ASC 606. Under the new guidance, contract consideration is allocated to its lease components and non-lease components (such as maintenance). For the Company as a lessor, non-lease components of the contract will be accounted under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, unless the Company elects a lessor practical expedient to not separate the non-lease components from the associated lease component. The amendments in ASU 2018-11 also provide lessors with a practical expedient, by class of underlying asset, to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component. To elect the practical expedient, the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease and non-lease components must be the same and the lease component must meet the criteria to be classified as an operating lease. If these criteria’s are met, the single component can be accounted either ASC 842 or ASC 606, depending on the predominant component(s). The lessor practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the associated component must be elected for all existing and new leases.
F-15 |
As lessor, the Company expects that post-adoption substantially all existing leases will have no change in the timing of revenue recognition until their expiration or termination. The Company expects to elect the lessor’s practical expedient to not separate non-lease components such as maintenance from the associated lease for all existing and new leases and to account for the combined component as a single lease component. The timing of revenue recognition is expected to be the same for the majority of the Company’s new leases as compared to similar existing leases; however, certain categories of new leases could have different revenue recognition patterns as compared to similar existing leases.
For the leases that are accounted as operating leases, income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease contract. Generally, when a lease is more than 180 days delinquent (where more than three monthly payments are owed), the lease is classified as being on nonaccrual and the Company has to stops recognizing leasing income on that date. Payments received from leases in nonaccrual status generally reduce the lease receivable. Leases on nonaccrual status remain classified as such until there is sustained payment performance that, in the Company’s judgment, would indicate that all contractual amounts will be collected in full.
Lessee
The Company adopted ASU 2016-02 effective April 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective approach. The new standard establishes a right-of-use model (“ROU”) that requires a lessee to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. In connection with the adoption, the Company will elect to utilize the modified retrospective presentation whereby the Company will continue to present prior period financial statements and disclosures under ASC 840. In addition, the Company will elect the transition package of three practical expedients permitted within the standard, which eliminates the requirements to reassess prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. Further, the Company will adopt a short-term lease exception policy, permitting us to not apply the recognition requirements of this standard to short-term leases (i.e. leases with terms of 12 months or less) and an accounting policy to account for lease and non-lease components as a single component for certain classes of assets.
The Company categorizes leases at their inception as either operating or capital leases. On certain lease agreements, the Company may receive rent holidays and other incentives. The Company recognizes lease costs on a straight-line basis without considering the deferred payment terms, such as rent holidays, that defer the commencement date of required payments.

A. Business overview:
Duo World, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Successor” or “Duo”), a reporting Company since September 26, 2016, 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. Dial Desk (Pte) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DDPL” or “Predecessor”), a Singapore based company, was incorporated on September 30, 2022.
Effective December 3, 2014, DSSL and DSS executed a reverse recapitalization with Duo. On September 30, 2022 Duo acquired its 80% own subsidiary Dial Desk (Pte) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DDPL” or “Predecessor”). Duo (“Successor”) is a holding company that conducts operations through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, DSSL, DSS and DDPL (“Predecessors”) in Sri Lanka and Singapore. The consolidated entity is referred to as the “Company.” The Company, having its development center in Colombo, Sri Lanka, specializes in the space of Customer Life Cycle Management & Contact Center solutions and Business Intelligence in the Asia Pacific Region. Driven by innovation, Duo World has served the enterprises in many ways, including efficiency, cost reduction, revenue optimization and continuous value addition to their product or service offerings. Duo World has been in the business of developing products and services for the subscription-based industry.
Further the Duo World Inc. has its wholly owned subsidiary which is Duo World Canada Inc., incorporated under the laws of Canada (Canada Business Corporations Act.) on June 08, 2020. On October 18, 2022 the Management has decided to wind up the Company.

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. The Company’s revenue recognition policy follows guidance from Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers promised goods and services to the customer and in the amount that reflect the consideration to which the company expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.
4 |
The following five steps are followed in recognizing revenue from contracts:
● | Identify the contract, or contract with the customer; | |
● | Identify the performance obligation of the contract; | |
● | Determine the transaction price; | |
● | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and; | |
● | Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation. |
The consideration for the transaction [performance obligation(s)] is determined as per the agreement, contract or invoice for the services and products.
Facetone
“Facetone” is a communication and collaboration platform, which provides users the capability of operating and running a high-performance contact center operation efficiently while saving cost and maximizing revenue opportunities. In-built Facetone CRM feature provides the opportunity for contact centers to deliver a superior customer experience and build a better relationship by linking customers and data in real time.
Smoothflow
“Smoothflow” automates customer engagements, including building ChatBots, VoiceBots and IoTBots to deliver an Omni channel customer service experience. The product uses the power of artificial intelligence to keep improving the conversational flow and user experience.
DialDesk
DialDesk is a SaaS contact center software which caters the SME segment of the market with its low cost, cloud based platform. Businesses can buy their virtual number from DialDesk and set up their contact center within few minutes. With its easy to uses user interface and agility DialDesk will help businesses improve the productivity of their contact center operations.
Provisions
A provision is recognized when the Company has present obligations as a result of past events. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and reliable estimates can be made of amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted at their present value and are determined based on the best estimates 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. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
