1. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A
summary
of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the
accompanying financial statements follows:
Business
and basis of Presentation
Global
Investor Services, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 10, 2005
under the laws of the State of Nevada. On September 16, 2006, the Company
changed its name to TheRetirementSolution.Com, Inc. and on October 1, 2008
to
Global Investor Services, Inc. The Company currently markets directly and
through its marketing partners as well as online, certain investor products
and
services that provide financial and educational information to its prospective
customers and to its subscribers. During the year ended March 31, 2008, the
Company transitioned from a development stage enterprise to an
operating company. While the Company has generated revenues from its
sale of products, the Company has incurred expenses, and sustained losses.
Consequently, its operations are subject to all risks inherent in the
establishment of a new business enterprise. As of September 30, 2008, the
Company has accumulated losses of $18,092,906.
On
August
30, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with
Voxpath Holdings, Inc. (“Voxpath”). Prior to the merger, Voxpath was an inactive
corporation with no significant assets and liabilities. As a result of the
Agreement, there was a change in control of the public entity. In accordance
with SFAS No. 141, Voxpath was the acquiring entity. While the transaction
is
accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, in substance the
Agreement is a recapitalization of Voxpath’s capital structure. For accounting
purposes, the Company accounted for the transaction as a reverse acquisition
and
Voxpath is the surviving entity. The value of the net assets acquired was $0.
The Company did not recognize goodwill or any intangible assets in connection
with the transaction. Effective with the Agreement, all previously outstanding
shares of common stock were exchanged for an aggregate of 99,999,998 shares
of
the Company’s common stock. The value of the stock issued was the historical
cost of the Company’s net tangible assets, which did not differ materially from
their fair value. The total consideration paid was $86,135.
During
the year ended March 31, 2008, the Company acquired Investment Tools and
Training, LLC (“ITT); a Utah limited liability company founded on November 9,
2006 and Razor Data, LLC (“Razor”); a Utah limited liability company formed July
23, 2002.
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly owned subsidiaries, Voxpath Holdings, Inc., ITT and Razor. All
significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Merger
and Corporate Restructure
On
August
30, 2006, the Company entered into a Share Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”) with
Voxpath Holdings, Inc. (“Voxpath”). As a result of the Agreement, there was a
change in control of the public entity. In accordance with SFAS No. 141, Voxpath
was the acquiring entity. While the transaction is accounted for using the
purchase method of accounting, in substance the Agreement is a recapitalization
of Voxpath’s capital structure.
For
accounting purposes, the Company accounted for the transaction as a reverse
acquisition and Voxpath is the surviving entity. The total purchase price and
carrying value of the net assets acquired was $0. The Company did not recognize
goodwill or any intangible assets in connection with the transaction. The
Company was an inactive corporation with no significant assets and
liabilities.
Effective
with the Agreement, all previously outstanding shares of common stock were
exchanged for an aggregate of 99,999,998 shares of the Company’s common stock.
The value of the stock issued was the historical cost of the Company’s net
tangible assets, which did not differ materially from their fair
value.
The
total
consideration paid was $86,135 and the significant components of the transaction
are as follows:

Revenue
Recognition
For
revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in
accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue
Recognition
("SAB104"), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements
("SAB101"). SAB 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue
can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2)
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price
is
fixed and determinable; and (4) collectibility is reasonably assured.
Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments
regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered
and
the collectibility of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to
customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided
for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any
revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund
until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the
product has been delivered or no refund will be required. SAB 104 incorporates
Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), Multiple-Deliverable
Revenue Arrangements.
EITF
00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or
performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The
effect of implementing EITF 00-21 on the Company's financial position and
results of operations was not significant.

1. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Revenue
arises from subscriptions to the websites/software, workshops, online workshops
and training and coaching/counseling services because the payments are received
before the service has been rendered. We sell our products separately and
in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables that include website/data
subscriptions, educational workshops, online workshops and training, one-on-one
coaching and counseling sessions, along with other products and services. In
accordance with EITF 00-21, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are
divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement
meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a
standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair
value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any
undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control. The fair value
of
each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold
separately. In certain arrangements, we offer these products bundled
together. If there is any discount from the combined fair value of the
individual elements, the discount is allocated to the portion of the revenues
that is attributed to the online courses and training. As per EITF 00-21, if
fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value
does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the
residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered
elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after
allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized
as revenue. The deferral policy for each of the different types of
revenues is summarized as follows:

As
of
September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, the Company’s deferred revenue was
$334,777 and $804,452, respectively
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the
related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the
respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from
disposition, is reflected in earnings. For financial statement purposes,
property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight
line method over their estimated useful lives as follows:
|
5
years
|
|
Software
|
|
3 to 7 years
|
Advertising Costs
The
Company expenses advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $2,545
and $2,641 for the six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007,
respectively.

Research
and Development
The
Company accounts for research and development costs in accordance with the
Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 2 (“SFAS 2”), “Accounting for Research and Development Costs.”
Under SFAS 2, all research and development costs must be charged to expense
as
incurred. Accordingly, internal research and development costs are expensed
as
incurred. Third-party research and developments costs are expensed when the
contracted work has been performed or as milestone results have been achieved.
Company-sponsored research and development costs related to both present and
future products are expensed in the period incurred. For the six month period
ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s expenditures on research and
product development were immaterial.
Reclassification
Certain
reclassifications have been made in prior year’s financial statements to conform
to classifications used in the current year.
Intangible
Assets and Goodwill
The
Company accounts for acquisitions in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
No.
141, “Business
Combinations.”
The
Company assigns to all identifiable assets acquired (including intangible
assets), and to all identifiable liabilities assumed, a portion of the cost
of
the acquired company equal to the estimated fair value of such assets and
liabilities at the date of acquisition. The Company records the excess of the
cost of the acquired company over the sum of the amounts assigned to
identifiable assets acquired less liabilities assumed, if any, as
goodwill.
As
a
result of the acquisitions of ITT and Razor on January 15, 2008, the Company
acquired intangible assets in the aggregate amount of $30,652,920.
The
Company allocated $2,920,000 and $499,747 to identifiable intangible assets
including a developed software and customer lists, respectively. The remaining
$27,233,173 was allocated to goodwill.
The
Company amortized its identifiable intangible assets using the straight-line
method over their estimated period of benefit. The estimated useful
lives of the developed software and the customer lists are three years. The
Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and
takes
into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful
lives or indicate that impairment exists.
The
Company accounts for and reports acquired goodwill and other intangible assets
under SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“SFAS No. 142”). In
accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company tests its intangible assets for
impairment on an annual basis and when there is reason to suspect that their
values have been diminished or impaired. Any write-downs will be included in
results from operations.

The
Company does not amortize goodwill. The Company recorded goodwill in the amount
of $27,233,173 as a result of the acquisition of Razor Data & ITT
during the year ended March 31, 2008, the Company has determined that the value
of goodwill has not been impaired based upon managements assessment of
operating results and forecasted discounted cash flow.
Impairment
of long lived assets
The
Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 (SFAS
144). The Statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable
intangibles held and used by the Company be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an
asset
may not be recoverable. Events relating to recoverability may include
significant unfavorable changes in business conditions, recurring losses, or
a
forecasted inability to achieve break-even operating results over an extended
period. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets based
upon
forecasted undiscounted cash flows. Should impairment in value be indicated,
the
carrying value of intangible assets will be adjusted, based on estimates of
future discounted cash flows resulting from the use and ultimate disposition
of
the asset. SF AS No. 144 also requires assets to be disposed of is reported
at
the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell.
Fair
value of financial instruments
Fair
value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions
and
pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2008 and
March
31, 2008. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial
instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include
cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying
values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their
carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.
Concentrations
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments and related items which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and
trade receivables. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments
with credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess
of
the FDIC insurance limit. The Company periodically reviews its trade receivables
in determining its allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for refunds
was $799 and $6,200 at September 30, 2008 and March 31, 2008, respectively.
Website
Development Costs
The
Company recognizes website development costs in accordance with Emerging Issue
Task Force ("EITF") No. 00-02, "Accounting for Website Development Costs."
As
such, the Company expenses all costs incurred that relate to the planning and
post implementation phases of development of its website. Direct costs incurred
in the development phase are capitalized and recognized over the estimated
useful life. Costs associated with repair or maintenance for the website are
included in cost of net revenues in the current period expenses. During the
six
month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not capitalize
any costs associated with the website development.

Software
Development Costs
The
Company accounts for software development costs intended for sale in accordance
with SFAS No. 86,
Accounting for Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise
Marketed (“SFAS 86”).
SFAS No. 86 requires product development costs to be charged to expense as
incurred until technological feasibility is attained and all other research
and
development activities for the hardware components of the product have been
completed. Technological feasibility is attained when the planning, design
and
testing phase related to the development of the Company’s software has been
completed and the software has been determined viable for its intended use,
which typically occurs when beta testing commences.
Stock-Based
Compensation
On
January 1, 2006 the company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123 (revised 2004) "Share-Based
Payment"
(SFAS
123 (R)) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense
for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including
employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to a Employee Stock
Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. SFAS 123 (R) supersedes the
company's previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25,
"Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees"
("APB
25") for the periods beginning fiscal 2006.
The
company adopted SFAS 123 (R) using the modified prospective transition method,
which required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1,
2006.
The company's Financial Statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2007
reflects the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective
transition method, the company's Financial Statements for the prior periods
have
not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of SFAS 123 (R).
Stock based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123 (R) for the year
ended March 31, 2007 was $1,440,776.
For
the
six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, the Company did not grant
stock options to employees and consultants. The fair value of options granted
in
previous years vesting during the six month period ended September 30, 2008
and
2007 of $412,200 was recorded as a current period charge to
earnings.
Segment
Information
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”) establishes standards for
reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented
in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS 131 also establishes
standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic
areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about
which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by
the
chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions
how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed
herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the
Company’s principal operating segment.
Income
taxes
The
Company follows Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No.109, Accounting
for Income Taxes (SFAS No.109) for recording the provision for income taxes.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based upon the difference
between the financial statement and income tax basis of assets and liabilities
using the enacted marginal tax rate applicable when the related asset or
liability is expected to be realized or settled. Deferred income tax expenses
or
benefits are based on the changes in the asset or liability during each period.
If available evidence suggests that it is more likely than not that some portion
or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized, a valuation allowance
is
required to reduce the deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely
than not to be realized. Future changes in such valuation allowance are included
in the provision for deferred income taxes in the period of change. Deferred
income taxes may arise from temporary differences resulting from income and
expense items reported for financial accounting and tax purposes in different
periods. Deferred taxes are classified as current or non-current, depending
on
the classification of assets and liabilities to which they relate. Deferred
taxes arising from temporary differences that are not related to an asset or
liability are classified as current or non-current depending on the periods
in
which the temporary differences are expected to reverse

Comprehensive
Income (Loss)
The
Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130; “Reporting
Comprehensive Income” (SFAS) No. 130 establishes standards for the reporting and
displaying of comprehensive income and its components. Comprehensive income
is
defined as the change in equity of a business during a period from transactions
and other events and circumstances from non-owners sources. It includes all
changes in equity during a period except those resulting from investments by
owners and distributions to owners. SFAS No. 130 requires other comprehensive
income (loss) to include foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized
gains and losses on available for sale securities.
Liquidity
As
shown
in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements,
the
Company incurred a net loss of $4,422,278 for the six month period ended
September 30, 2008. The Company's current liabilities exceeded its current
assets by $7,977,084 as of September 30, 2008.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash includes demand deposits, saving
accounts and money market accounts. The Company considers all highly liquid
debt
instruments with maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents.
Loss
per Share
The
Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 128,
"Earnings Per Share," specifying the computation, presentation and disclosure
requirements of earnings per share information. Basic earnings per share have
been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding. Stock options and warrants have been excluded as common stock
equivalents in the diluted earnings per share because they are either
antidilutive, or their effect is not material.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities –
Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”
(“SFAS
No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of
the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value
option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”
applies
to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS
No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the
beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided
the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair
Value Measurements”. The
adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on its consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business

("SFAS No. 141(R)"), which establishes principles and requirements for how
an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable

after December 15, 2007, however, on February 6, 2008, FASB issued a
final Staff Position indefinitely deferring the effective date and prohibiting
early adoption of SOP 07-1 while addressing implementation issues.
In
December 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus in EITF Issue No. 07-1,
“Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (EITF 07-1). EITF 07-1
defines collaborative arrangements and requires collaborators to present the
result of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and
report any payments received from (made to) the other collaborators based on
other applicable authoritative accounting literature, and in the absence of
other applicable authoritative literature, on a reasonable, rational and
consistent accounting policy is to be elected. EITF 07-1 also provides for
disclosures regarding the nature and purpose of the arrangement, the entity’s
rights and obligations, the accounting policy for the arrangement and the income
statement classification and amounts arising from the agreement. EITF 07-1
will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, which
will be the Company’s fiscal year 2009, and will be applied as a change in
accounting principle retrospectively for all collaborative arrangements existing
as of the effective date. The Company has not yet evaluated the potential impact
of adopting EITF 07-1 on our consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
In
March
2008, the FASB” issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – an amendment to FASB
Statement No. 133”
(“SFAS
No. 161”). SFAS
No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments
and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors
to
better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide
enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008,
with early adoption encouraged. We are currently evaluating the
impact of SFAS No. 161, if any, will have on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.

1. SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In
April
2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3,“Determination
of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”.
This FSP
amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension
assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset
under SFAS No. 142,“Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets”. We
are required to adopt FSP 142-3 on September 1, 2009, earlier adoption is
prohibited. The guidance in FSP 142-3 for determining the useful life
of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible
assets acquired after adoption, and the disclosure requirements shall be applied
prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to,
adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of FSP 142-3 on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In
May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles"
("SFAS No. 162"). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of
accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in
the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the
GAAP hierarchy). SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days
following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in
Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles." We do not
expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In
May
2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 14-1 "Accounting
for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion
(Including Partial Cash Settlement)
" ("FSP
APB 14-1"). FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets)
on
conversion to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion
option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's
non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FSP APB 14-1 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 on a retroactive
basis. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of
the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
SFAS
No. 163.
In May
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Statement on
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 163, “Accounting for Financial
Guarantee Insurance Contracts – an interpretation of SFAS No. 60” (“SFAS
163”). The FASB believes that diversity exists in practice in accounting for
financial guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB
Statement No. 60, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises.” That
diversity results in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of
claim
liabilities because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred
under
SFAS No. 5 “Accounting for Contingencies.” SFAS No. 163 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008,
and all interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures
about the insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. The Company is not
an insurance enterprise and thus standard will not have any impact on its
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
Other
recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging
Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the SEC did not, or are not believed by
management to, have a material impact on the Company’s present or future
consolidated financial statements.

6. NOTES
PAYABLE (continued)
Under
the
terms of the Convertible Note, if the existing president should resign or be
dismissed, the monies loaned to the Company, including all accrued interest,
would immediately be due and payable. The president resigned on February 19,
2006, thus accelerating the payment of the loan, plus accrued
interest.
On
April
24, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with the Noteholder regarding
his forbearance of collecting the debt owed to him due to the resignation of
its
former President. The Company will pay from the proceeds of a Private Placement,
10% of the first $500,000 of funds raised and 20% of the next $500,000 raised,
for a total of $150,000. The remaining balance will be due on December 31,
2007,
including interest at 10% compounding semi-annually. If the Private Placement
raises less than $1,000,000 by October 2006, the Company will pay 10% of all
additional capital raised by the Company. If no Private Placement Offering
is
circulated, the balance will be due immediately. Additionally, as consideration
for his forbearance, the Company granted the Noteholder 500,000 shares (411,523
shares after pre-merger adjustment) of the Company’s common stock which was
issued to him on April 24, 2006. (Note in default.)
Note
Payable to Related Party
In
March
2007, the Company entered into an agreement with a corporation that is majority
owned by a former president and CEO of the Company and which provides ongoing
management services under a consulting agreement as described in Note 11. Per
the terms of the employment and separation agreement, upon termination of his
employment the company became obligated for one year of severance pay. Upon
termination of the agreement in March 2007, and in exchange for the remaining
payments due, a promissory note was issued to the majority shareholder in the
amount of $128,386; with interest at 8.00% annually, payable in monthly
installments of $5,807.

The
Company has adopted Financial Accounting Standard No. 109 which requires the
recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future
tax
consequences of events that have been included in the financial statement or
tax
returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined
based on the difference between financial statements and tax bases of assets
and
liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the
differences are expected to reverse. Temporary differences between taxable
income reported for financial reporting purposes and income tax purposes are
insignificant.
At
September 30, 2008 the Company has available for federal income tax
purposes a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $18,000,000 expiring
in the year 2026, that may be used to offset future taxable income. The Company
has provided a valuation reserve against the full amount of the net operating
loss benefit, since in the opinion of management based upon the earnings history
of the Company; it is more likely than not that the benefits will not be
realized. Due to significant changes in the Company's ownership, the future
use
of its existing net operating losses may be limited. Components of deferred
tax
assets as of September 30, 2008 are as follows:

15. GOING
CONCERN MATTERS
The
Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared
using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern
which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities
in
the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses
which
have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $18,092,906 at September 30, 2008
which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern. The accompanying unaudited condensed 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.
Continuation
as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and upon
the
Company’s attaining profitable operations. The Company will require a
substantial amount of additional funds to complete the development of its
products, to build a sales and marketing organization, and to fund additional
losses which the Company expects to incur over the next few years. The
management of the Company intends to seek additional funding through a Private
Placement Offering which will be utilized to fund product development and
continue operations. The Company recognizes that, if it is unable to raise
additional capital, it may find it necessary to substantially reduce or cease
operations.
16. SUBSEQUENT
EVENTS
On
October 6, 2008, the Company received $220,000 in advances for marketing under
the same terms and conditions as described in Note 5 above
In
October 2008, the Company issued 13,375 shares of its common stock in payment
of
accrued interest on convertible debentures.

of entry level investors, active investors in the on-line brokerage sector
and
higher-end users of financial information, services and financial

The
Company’s marketing strategy is designed to grow the business and to deliver
high customer value in education and investor services at the lowest possible
cost. These goals will be achieved through on-line customer acquisition, product

Customer
acquisition is realized via the company’s marketing partners and through on-line
marketing. Our partners have the marketing and operations capability to attract
customers by way of low cost introductory courses and products which then allows
for upsell opportunities to a complete on-line education curriculum and expanded
investor services. Customer service is supported by a comprehensive client
management system that tracks the customer throughout the purchase, education
and added services cycle which also includes live data feeds, news and
investment letters.
On-line
education delivery is completed starting with early stage courses through a
complete curriculum of learning modules, podcasts, webinars and webisodes.
In
addition, our customer management system follows every student at this level
in
the form of surveys, competency assessments, learning assignments, hotline,
coaching and mentoring.
The
Company has a number of different delivery formats that is focused on a
structured investing methodology that focuses on searching for an investment,
industry group analysis, fundamental analysis, technical analysis, and portfolio
management. The objective is to provide a complete investor education experience
for both beginning and experienced investors and to help them better understand
the investment decision process.
The
company’s longer term goals include the expansion to other markets beyond the
United States. The comprehensive investor education curriculum and related
investor services will be marketed and delivered on-line in target markets
principally via joint venture arrangements in other countries.

Our
selling, general and administrative expenses are up significantly compared
to
same period last year primarily due to our acquisitions of ITT and Razor.
Additionally our stock based compensation for the three month period ended
September 30, 2008 was $377,916 compared to $206,100 for the three month period
ended September 30, 2007.
Depreciation
and amortization increase is due to the additional assets acquired with the
acquisition of ITT and Razor which represented 99% of the increase.

Our
selling, general and administrative expenses are down 11% compared to same
period last year primarily due stock based compensation paid in the six months
ended September 30, 2007 net with the increase from our acquisitions of ITT
and
Razor.
Depreciation
and amortization increase is due to the additional assets acquired with the
acquisition of ITT and Razor which represented 38,317% of the
increase.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
As
of
September 30, 2008, the Company had a working capital deficit of $7,977,084.
The
Company generated a deficit in cash flow from operating activities of $1,289,481
for the six month period September 30, 2008. This deficit is primarily
attributable to the Company's net loss from operations of $4,422,278 and is
partially offset by following: A charge for the value of options issued for
services of $412,200, recognition of an imbedded beneficial conversion of
convertible debentures of $642,477, stock issued for services of $1,162,550,
amortization of deferred compensation costs of $89,664, amortization and
depreciation expense of $469,069, and changes in the balances of current assets
and liabilities. Accounts receivable, unbilled revenue and other current assets
decreased by 890,182, net. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities decreased
by
$95,251 and deferred revenue decreased by $469,575.
The
Company met its cash requirements during the six month period ended September
30, 2008 through net proceeds from convertible debentures of $275,000, advances
for marketing of $549,561 and a preferred stock subscription of $500,000 net
with repayments of related party advances and other notes payable of $127,912.
While
we
have raised capital to meet our working capital and financing needs in the
past,
additional financing is required in order to meet our current and projected
cash
flow deficits from operations and development. We are seeking financing, which
may take the form of debt, convertible debt or equity, in order to provide
the
necessary working capital. There is no guarantee that we will be successful
in
raising the funds required.
We
estimate that during the next twelve months we will need approximately
$2,000,000 in additional capital to fully implement our business plan. Our
business plan encompasses investing behind our business development strategy,
our marketing campaigns and in building our business operations. As of the
date
of this filing, we have minimal operating capital to continue our business
and
marketing initiatives for the next twelve months. If we are not successful
in
generating sufficient cash flow from operations or in raising sufficient capital
resources to finance our growth, on terms acceptable to us, this could have
a
material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, liquidity and
financial condition, we will have to adjust our planned operations and
development on a more limited scale and, ultimately, may cease to continue
our
business.
Critical
Accounting Policies
The
preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and
judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses,
and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates
and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we
believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may
differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there
are a
number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial
statements; we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the
most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and
judgments.
34
Revenue
Recognition
For
revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in
accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue
Recognition
("SAB104"), which superseded Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements
("SAB101"). SAB 101 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue
can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2)
delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price
is
fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured.
Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments
regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered
and
the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to
customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided
for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers
any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund
until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the
product has been delivered or no refund will be required. The Company had
deferred revenues of $334,777 and $804,452 as of September 30, 2008 and March
31, 2008, respectively. SAB 104 incorporates Emerging Issues Task Force 00-21
("EITF 00-21"), Multiple-Deliverable
Revenue Arrangements.
EITF
00-21 addresses accounting for arrangements that may involve the delivery or
performance of multiple products, services and/or rights to use assets. The
effect of implementing EITF 00-21 on the Company's financial position and
results of operations was not significant.
Stock-Based
Compensation
On
January 1, 2006 we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
123
(revised 2004) "Share-Based
Payment"
(SFAS
123 (R)) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense
for all share-based payment awards made to employees and directors including
employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to a Employee Stock
Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values. SFAS 123 (R) supersedes the
company's previous accounting under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.
25,
"Accounting
for Stock Issued to Employees"
("APB
25") for the periods beginning fiscal 2006.
We
adopted SFAS 123 (R) using the modified prospective transition method, which
required the application of the accounting standard as of January 1, 2006.
The
company's Financial Statements as of and for the year ended March 31, 2007
reflects the impact of SFAS 123(R). In accordance with the modified prospective
transition method, the company's Financial Statements for the prior periods
have
not been restated to reflect, and do not include the impact of SFAS 123 (R).
Stock based compensation expense recognized under SFAS 123 (R) for the year
ended March 31, 2007 was $1,440,776.
For
the
six month period ended September 30, 2008 and 2007, we did not grant stock
options to employees and consultants. The fair value of options granted in
previous years vesting during the six month period ended September 30, 2008
and
2007 of $412,200 was recorded as a current period charge to
earnings.
Segment
Information
Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information” (“SFAS 131”) establishes standards for
reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial
statements and requires selected information for those segments to be presented
in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. SFAS 131 also establishes
standards for related disclosures about products and services and geographic
areas. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise about
which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by
the
chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in making decisions
how to allocate resources and assess performance. The information disclosed
herein materially represents all of the financial information related to the
Company’s principal operating segment.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities -
Including an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 115”
(“SFAS
No. 159”). SFAS No. 159 permits entities to choose to measure many
financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. Most of
the provisions of SFAS No. 159 apply only to entities that elect the fair value
option. However, the amendment to SFAS No. 115 “Accounting
for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities”
applies
to all entities with available-for-sale and trading securities. SFAS
No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an entity’s first fiscal year that
begins after November 15, 2007. Early adoption is permitted as of the
beginning of a fiscal year that begins on or before November 15, 2007, provided
the entity also elects to apply the provision of SFAS No. 157, “Fair
Value Measurements”. The
adoption of SFAS No. 159 did not have a material impact on its consolidated
financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
35
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), "Business
Combinations"
("SFAS No. 141(R)"), which establishes principles and requirements for how
an acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in
an
acquiree, including the recognition and measurement of goodwill acquired in
a
business combination. SFAS No. 141R is effective as of the beginning of the
first fiscal year beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption
is prohibited and the Company is currently evaluating the effect, if any that
the adoption will have on its consolidated financial position results of
operations or cash flows.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, "Noncontrolling
Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB
No. 51”
(“SFAS
No. 160”), which will change the accounting and reporting for minority
interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and
classified as a component of equity within the consolidated balance sheets.
SFAS
No. 160 is effective as of the beginning of the first fiscal year beginning
on
or after December 15, 2008. Earlier adoption is prohibited and the Company
is currently evaluating the effect, if any that the adoption will have on its
consolidated financial position results of operations or cash
flows.
In
June 2007, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee issued Statement of
Position 07-1, “Clarification of the Scope of the Audit and Accounting Guide
Investment Companies and Accounting by Parent Companies and Equity Method
Investors for Investments in Investment Companies” (“SOP 07-1”). SOP 07-1
provides guidance for determining whether an entity is within the scope of
the
AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide Investment Companies (the “Audit Guide”). SOP
07-1 was originally determined to be effective for fiscal years beginning on
or
after December 15, 2007, however, on February 6, 2008, FASB issued a
final Staff Position indefinitely deferring the effective date and prohibiting
early adoption of SOP 07-1 while addressing implementation issues.
In
December 2007, the FASB ratified the consensus in EITF Issue No. 07-1,
“Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” (EITF 07-1). EITF 07-1
defines collaborative arrangements and requires collaborators to present the
result of activities for which they act as the principal on a gross basis and
report any payments received from (made to) the other collaborators based on
other applicable authoritative accounting literature, and in the absence of
other applicable authoritative literature, on a reasonable, rational and
consistent accounting policy is to be elected. EITF 07-1 also provides for
disclosures regarding the nature and purpose of the arrangement, the entity’s
rights and obligations, the accounting policy for the arrangement and the income
statement classification and amounts arising from the agreement. EITF 07-1
will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, which
will be the Company’s fiscal year 2009, and will be applied as a change in
accounting principle retrospectively for all collaborative arrangements existing
as of the effective date. The Company has not yet evaluated the potential impact
of adopting EITF 07-1 on our consolidated financial position, results of
operations or cash flows.
In
March
2008, the FASB” issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures
about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities - an amendment to FASB
Statement No. 133”
(“SFAS
No. 161”). SFAS
No. 161 is intended to improve financial standards for derivative instruments
and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures to enable investors
to
better understand their effects on an entity's financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. Entities are required to provide
enhanced disclosures about: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are
accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related interpretations; and (c) how
derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. It is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008,
with early adoption encouraged. We are currently evaluating the
impact of SFAS No. 161, if any, will have on our consolidated financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
In
April
2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3,“Determination
of the Useful Life of Intangible Assets”.
This FSP
amends the factors that should be considered in developing renewal or extension
assumptions used to determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset
under SFAS No. 142,“Goodwill
and Other Intangible Assets”. We
are required to adopt FSP 142-3 on September 1, 2009, earlier adoption is
prohibited. The guidance in FSP 142-3 for determining the useful life
of a recognized intangible asset shall be applied prospectively to intangible
assets acquired after adoption, and the disclosure requirements shall be applied
prospectively to all intangible assets recognized as of, and subsequent to,
adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact of FSP 142-3 on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
36
In
May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, "The
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles"
("SFAS No. 162"). SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of
accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in
the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (the
GAAP hierarchy). SFAS No. 162 will become effective 60 days
following the SEC's approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
amendments to AU Section 411, "The Meaning of Present Fairly in
Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles." We do not
expect the adoption of SFAS No. 162 will have a material effect on our
consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.
In
May
2008, the FASB issued FSP Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 14-1 "Accounting
for Convertible Debt Instruments That May Be Settled in Cash upon Conversion
(Including Partial Cash Settlement)
" ("FSP
APB 14-1"). FSP APB 14-1 requires the issuer of certain
convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash (or other assets)
on
conversion to separately account for the liability (debt) and equity (conversion
option) components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer's
non-convertible debt borrowing rate. FSP APB 14-1 is effective
for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 on a retroactive
basis. We are currently evaluating the potential impact, if any, of
the adoption of FSP APB 14-1 on our consolidated financial position,
results of operations or cash flows.
SFAS
No. 163.
In May
2008, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Statement on
Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 163, “Accounting for Financial
Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of SFAS No. 60” (“SFAS 163”).
The FASB believes that diversity exists in practice in accounting for financial
guarantee insurance contracts by insurance enterprises under FASB Statement
No.
60, “Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises.” That diversity results
in inconsistencies in the recognition and measurement of claim liabilities
because of differing views about when a loss has been incurred under SFAS No.
5
“Accounting for Contingencies.” SFAS No. 163 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and all
interim periods within those fiscal years, except for some disclosures about
the
insurance enterprise’s risk-management activities. The Company is not an
insurance enterprise and thus standard will not have any impact on its financial
position, results of operations or cash flows.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
The
Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably
likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues,
results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.
Trends,
Risks and Uncertainties
We
have
sought to identify what we believe to be the most significant risks to our
business, but we cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks
may be realized nor can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks
that might arise. Investors should carefully consider all of such risk factors
before making an investment decision with respect to our Common
Stock.
Cautionary
Factors That May Affect Future Results
We
have
sought to identify what we believe are significant risks to our business, but
we
cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any of such risks may be realized
nor
can we guarantee that we have identified all possible risks that might
arise.
Potential
Fluctuations in Annual Operating Results
Our
annual operating results may fluctuate significantly in the future as a result
of a variety of factors, most of which are outside our control, including:
the
demand for our products and services; seasonal trends in purchasing, the amount
and timing of capital expenditures and other costs relating to the commercial
and consumer financing; price competition or pricing changes in the market;
technical difficulties or system downtime; general economic conditions and
economic conditions specific to the consumer financing sector.
Our
annual results may also be significantly impacted by the impact of the
accounting treatment of acquisitions, financing transactions or other matters.
Particularly at our early stage of development, such accounting treatment can
have a material impact on the results for any quarter. Due to the foregoing
factors, among others, it is likely that our operating results may fall below
our expectations or those of investors in some future quarter.
37
Dependence
Upon Management
Our
future performance and success is dependant upon the efforts and abilities
of
our Management. To a very significant degree, we are dependent upon the
continued services of Nicholas S. Maturo, our Chief Executive Officer and member
of our Board of Directors, and William Kosoff, our President and Chief Financial
Officer and member of our Board of Directors. If we lost the services of Mr.
Maturo, Mr. Kosoff, or other key employees before we could get qualified
replacements, the loss could materially adversely affect our business. The
Company has obtained a “Key Man” life insurance policy on Mr. Maturo and has
initiated applications to obtain key man life insurance on Mr. Kosoff, President
and CFO.
Our
officers and directors are required to exercise good faith and high integrity
in
our Management affairs. Our bylaws provide, however, that our directors shall
have no liability to us or to our shareholders for monetary damages for breach
of fiduciary duty as a director except with respect to (1) a breach of the
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) acts
or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (3) liability which may be specifically defined by law or
(4)
a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.
Management
of Growth
We
may
experience growth, which will place a strain on our managerial, operational
and
financial systems resources. To accommodate our current size and manage growth
if it occurs, we must devote management attention and resources to improve
our
financial strength and our operational systems. Further, we will need to expand,
train and manage our sales and distribution base. There is no guarantee that
we
will be able to effectively manage our existing operations or the growth of
our
operations, or that our facilities, systems, procedures or controls will be
adequate to support any future growth. Our ability to manage our operations
and
any future growth will have a material effect on our stockholders.
If
we
fail to remain current on our reporting requirements, we could be removed from
the OTC Bulletin Board which would limit the ability of broker-dealers to sell
our securities and the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in
the
secondary market.
Companies
trading on the OTC Bulletin Board, such as us, must be reporting issuers under
Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and must be
current in their reports under Section 13, in order to maintain price quotation
privileges on the OTC Bulletin Board. If we fail to remain current on our
reporting requirements, we could be removed from the OTC Bulletin Board. As
a
result, the market liquidity for our securities could be severely adversely
affected by limiting the ability of broker-dealers to sell our securities and
the ability of stockholders to sell their securities in the secondary
market.
