Sanwire Corp - Quarter Report: 2013 June (Form 10-Q)

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

The Company recognizes allowances for doubtful accounts to ensure accounts receivable are not overstated due to the inability or unwillingness of its customers to make required payments. The allowance is based on the age of receivable and the specific identification of receivables the Company considers at risk.

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company depreciates the cost of property and equipment over their estimated useful lives at the following annual rates:

Intangible assets are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company’s intangible asset is the iPMine technology which is being amortized straight-line over 10 years.

In accordance with ASC 360, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition price over the fair value of identifiable net assets acquired. Goodwill is allocated at the date of the business combination. Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually, during the fourth quarter, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate the asset may be impaired. These events and circumstances may include a significant change in legal factors or in the business climate, a significant decline in the Company’s share price, an adverse action of assessment by a regulator, unanticipated competition, a loss of key personnel, significant disposal activity and the testing of recoverability for a significant asset group.

The Company consists of a single reporting unit. The impairment test is carried out in two steps. In the first step, the carrying amount of the reporting unit including goodwill is compared with its fair value. The estimated fair value is determined utilizing a market-based approach, based on the quoted market price of the Company’s stock in an active market, adjusted by an appropriate control premium. When the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered to be impaired and the second step is necessary.

In the second step of the goodwill impairment test, the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is compared with its carrying amount to measure the amount of the impairment loss, if any. The implied fair value of goodwill is determined in the same manner as the value of goodwill is determined in a business combination using the fair value of the reporting unit as if it were the acquisition price. When the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess and is presented as a separate line item in the consolidated statements of operations. Establishing an implied fair value of goodwill requires the Company to make estimates for key inputs into complex valuation models and to apply significant judgment in the selection of estimates, assumptions and methodologies required to complete the analysis. Areas of judgment include, but are not limited to, development of multi-year business cash flow forecasts, the selection of discount rates and the identification and valuation of unrecorded assets.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into the currency of measurement at the exchange rates in effect on the transaction date. Monetary balance sheet items expressed in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting exchange gains and losses are recognized in income.

The Company’s integrated foreign subsidiaries are financially or operationally dependent on the Company. The Company uses the temporal method to translate the accounts of its integrated operations into U.S. dollars. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated at historical rates. Revenues and expenses are translated at average rates for the period, except for amortization, which is translated on the same basis as the related asset. The resulting exchange gains or losses are recognized in income.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. The asset and liability method provides that deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and for operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is believed more likely than not to be realized.

The Company earns revenue from the provision of advanced telecommunications and broadband services. The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition”. Revenue is recognized when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been performed, and collectability is reasonably assured.

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The Company’s financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, loans payable, convertible debt, and amounts due to related parties. Pursuant to ASC 820, the fair value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective maturity dates or durations.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

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

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

The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share" which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti dilutive. As at June 30, 2013, the Company had 13,230,000 dilutive potential shares outstanding.

ASC 220, “Comprehensive Income,” establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the financial statements. As at June 30, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no items that represent a comprehensive loss and, therefore, has not included a schedule of comprehensive loss in the consolidated financial statements.

The Company has implemented all new accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations.

On May 28, 2013 the Company completed a stock purchase agreement with all the shareholders of Aero Networks, LLC (“Aero”). The Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Aero by issuing 2,400,000 shares of common stock and 3,000,000 share purchase warrants in three 1,000,000 blocks expiring in 2014, 2015, and 2017 at an exercise price of $0.50, $0.75, and $1.00 respectively. The Company also agreed to issue future earn-out performance bonus shares based on revenue growth and extended a three year agreement to Aero’s management team. Refer to Note 11(f).

As a result, the Company issued 2,400,000 shares of common stock with a fair value of $600,000, and 3,000,000 share purchase warrants with a fair value of $699,765 to the shareholders of Aero. The Company determined the fair value of the share purchase warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 0.63%, expected life of 2.9 years, expected volatility of 256%, and no expected dividends.

On May 10, 2013, the Company issued convertible promissory notes to two companies controlled by the President of the Company for the $9,980,000 debt that arose from the purchase of the iPMine system. Refer to Note 4. The notes are non-interest bearing, unsecured, and due eighteen months from the date of issuance. The unpaid amount of principal can be converted at any time at the holder’s option into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of $1.00 per share.

The convertible loan was recorded using the relative fair value method where the loan has been bifurcated into a debt component and equity component comprised of the convertible feature embedded within the liability. The value of the liability component, at the time of issuance was determined using a net present value calculation assuming a discount rate of 15% per annum. The fair value of the equity component was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 0.18%, dividend of 0%, expected life of 1.5 years, and expected volatility of 266%. The equity component was determined to be $2,119,502 which was recorded as equity and an equivalent discount on the convertible debt which will be accreted to the face value of $9,980,000 over the term of the debt.

THE FOLLOWING ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION OF SANWIRE CORPORATION (FORMERLY, NT MINING CORPORATION) FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2013 SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH SANWIRE CORPORATION’S INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, INCLUDING THE NOTES THERETO CONTAINED ELSEWHERE IN THE FORM 10-Q.

 

Our interim consolidated financial statements are stated in United States Dollars and are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.

 

Overview

 

Sanwire was incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 10, 1997. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Bullmoose Mines Ltd. (“BML”), was incorporated in the Northwest Territories, Canada on February 29, 2000. On October 14, 2008, the Company acquired BML.

 

The Company was formerly named Clear Water Mining, Inc. (to March 11, 1999), E-Casino Gaming Corporation (to June 21, 1999), E-Vegas.com Inc. (to July 20, 2000), 1st Genx.com Inc. (to October 18, 2001), Oasis Information Systems, Inc. (to January 27, 2005), 777 Sports Entertainment, Corp. (to September 26, 2008) and NT Mining Corporation (to March 8, 2013). On December 15, 2007, the Company’s former president died and the Company then discontinued its business operations.

 

Our Current Business

 

The Company changed its business focus during 2007 and in 2008 and completed the changeover to mining exploration and development, which was the concept utilized when the Company was incorporated. In order to complete the transformation, the Company completed a reverse stock split during 2008, settled the majority of its liabilities through a share exchange for debt and acquired a privately held Canadian mining corporation with a single mining asset, former gold producer "The Bullmoose Mine", located in the Northwest Territory of Canada. In 2009 and 2010, the company completed a limited program on the mining properties in Canada, sufficient to maintain the lease and mineral claims in good standing.

 

In 2011, the Company settled litigation it had initiated to assert its interest in the Bullmoose Mine. Under the settlement the Company’s acquisition of Bullmoose will be rescinded. More particularly, the 120,000 shares issued by the company as consideration for the acquisition will be cancelled and $75,000 of the $85,000 paid as part consideration for the acquisition, will be returned to the Company. The closing date has been set for June 30, 2012. Until that date and afterwards, if the settlement does not close, the Company continues to retain title to Bullmoose.

 

On January 2, 2013, the Company signed an exclusive licensing and distribution agreement to sell and market the iPMine communication and mine-safety system for underground mines for the European continent. The terms of the agreement includes exclusivity for the European market for a 5-year term renewable for an additional 5-year term and first right of refusal to acquire the entire iPMine intellectual property.

 

On March 22, 2013, the Company exercised its option under the recently executed License and Distribution Agreement for 100% ownership of the iPMine communications and mine-safety system. The iPMine system will continue to operate under the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, iPTerra Technologies, Inc.

 

On April 30, 2013, the Company announced the appointment of Mr. Naiel Kanno as its new President and Chief Executive Officer replacing Mr. Carman Parente. Mr. Kanno continues to hold a seat on the Company’s board of directors.

On April 30, 2013, the Company announced the appointment of Mr. Carman Parente as Chairman of the board. Mr. Parente continues to hold a seat on the Company’s board of directors.

On May 1, 2013, Mr. J Roland Vetter assumed the position of the Company’s Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Vetter continues to hold a seat on the Company’s board of directors.

On May 28, 2013, the Company acquired Tulsa, Oklahoma-based Aero Networks, LLC. In consideration for the acquisition, the Company shall issue two million and four hundred thousand (2,400,000) common shares plus three million (3,000,000) warrants from treasury in accordance with Rule 144 of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Expenses had increased for the current six month period as compared to $123,523 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012. The increase in costs over this six month period is due to the increase in management/consulting fees and amortization of the technology intellectual property.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the six month period ended June 30, 2013, Sanwire satisfied its working capital needs by carefully managing its cash flow and deferring payments to its services vendors. As June 30, 2013, the Company had cash on hand in the amount of $2,413 (December 31, 2012 - $1,094) and current liabilities of $1,719,661 (December 31, 2012 - $1,373,130). As June 30, 2013, Sanwire has $581,294 in accounts payable, $132,339 in accrued liabilities, $673,624 in loans payable, and $332,404 payable to related parties. Given the current financial situation of Sanwire, management does not expect that the current level of cash on hand will be sufficient to fund its operation for the next twelve month period.

 

To achieve our goals and objectives for the next 12 months, we plan to manage our operating expenses, negotiate with creditors to defer payments, or convert debt into equity. In addition management is actively seeking long term funding and seeking investors to invest in the company; refer to Note 13 - Subsequent Events.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

On October 22, 2010, the Company initiated a claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia against a former officer of the Company and certain other companies controlled directly or indirectly by the former officer (collectively the “Defendant”), to assert its interest in Bullmoose. On October 14, 2008, the Company had acquired Bullmoose. However, on or about August 10, 2010, the Company and its directors and officers other than the Defendant discovered that the Defendant had apparently taken steps to sell the Company’s interest in Bullmoose to a third party in which that Defendant had a significant interest.

 

On or about December 15, 2010, the Company entered into a settlement agreement underwhich the Company’s acquisition of Bullmoose will be rescinded (the “Settlement Agreement”). More particularly, the 120,000 shares issued by the Company as consideration for the acquisition will be cancelled and $75,000 of the $85,000 as part consideration for the acquisition, will be returned to the Company. The Company continues to retain title to Bullmoose as of March 31, 2013.

 

On the Closing Date (July 3, 2012, the first business day after June 30, 2012) all parties to the Settlement Agreement, except those responsible to return the $75,000 to the Company, tendered signed Settlement documents. As a result, the Company cancelled the 120,000 shares and commenced an action in the Supreme Court of British Columbia to recover the $75,000. The Company takes the position that until this sum is paid, it continues to hold title to the mineral properties through its ownership of all issued Bullmoose shares.

 

We know of no other material, active or pending legal proceedings against our Company, nor are we involved as a plaintiff in any other material proceeding or pending litigation. There are no proceedings in which any of our directors, officers or affiliates, or any registered or beneficial shareholder, is an adverse party or has a material interest adverse to our interest.
