ASIARIM CORPORATION |
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2010 |
(UNAUDITED) |
(Stated in US Dollars) |
|
Asiarim Corporation (the "Company") is a Nevada corporation, incorporated on June 15, 2007. In the prior fiscal year, the Company's planned principal operations have commenced and there has been revenue therefrom. The Company was no longer a development stage enterprise. The Accounting Standards Codification ASC 915 "Development Stage Entity" sub-section 915-45-5 stated that the cumulative amounts and addition disclosures need not be shown when the Company is no longer in development stage. The Company's offices are located in Oldenzaal, The Netherlands and in Hong Kong, China and its principal business is the sale and distribution of computer, telecom, gaming and multimedia products and devices under the brand name "Commodore". |
2. UNCERTAINTY OF ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN |
The Company's financial statements are prepared using the 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 not generated significant revenues since inception and has never paid any dividends and is unlikely to pay dividends or generate significant earnings in the immediate or foreseeable future. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the ability of the Company to obtain necessary equity or capital financing to continue operations and the attainment of profitable operations. The management will seek to raise funds from strategic investors and/or the shareholders. |
Since June 15, 2007 (inception) to June 30, 2010, the Company has generated revenue of $121,344 and has incurred an accumulated deficit $929,202. As of June 30, 2010, its current liabilities exceed its current assets by $2,892,523, which may not be sufficient to pay for the operating expenses and debt obligations in the next 12 months. These financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. These factors noted above raise substantial doubts regarding the Company ' s ability to continue as a going concern. |
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES & REALIZATION OF ASSETS |
Basis of Presentation |
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principals generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2009. They do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2009 included in the Company Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and results of operations for the interim period presented have been included. Operating results for the interim period are not necessary indicative of the results that may be expected for the respective full year. |
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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES & REALIZATION OF ASSETS (CONTINUED) |
Principles of Consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements for the period ended June 30, 2010 include the financial statements of the Company, its 100% subsidiary Commodore Asia Holdings Limited ("CAHL"), its 100% subsidiary Asiarim UK Limited ("AUL"), its indirect holding of Commodore Electronics Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of CAHL, its indirect holding of Commodore Licensing B.V. (formerly known as CIC Europe Holding B.V.), a wholly owned subsidiary of AUL, and its indirect holdings of C= Holdings B.V. (formerly known as Commodore International B.V.) and Commodore Europe B.V. (formerly known as CIC Europe B.V.), wholly owned subsidiaries of Commodore Licensing B.V. The results of subsidiaries acquired or sold during the year are consolidated from their effective dates of acquisition or through their effective dates of disposition, respectively. All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation. |
Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) Per Share |
The Company computes net income (loss) per share in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ASC 260 "Earnings Per Share" formerly SFAS No. 128. "Earnings per Share" . ASC 260 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per Share (EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net income (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. |
Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures |
ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" codified SFAS No. 107, "Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments". ASC 820 applies to all entities, transactions, and instruments that require or permit fair value measurements, with specific exceptions and qualifications. The Company is required to disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. Unless otherwise indicated, the fair values of all reported assets and liabilities, which represent financial instruments, none of which are held for trading purposes, approximate are carrying values of such amounts. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents. |
Inventories |
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, cost being determined on the first-in, first-out method. Inventories are written down if the estimated net realizable value is less than the recorded value. |
Intangible Assets |
The Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment, at least on an annual basis and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable from its estimated future cash flows. Recoverability of intangible assets, other long-lived assets and, goodwill is measured by comparing their net book value to the related projected undiscounted cash flows from these assets, considering a number of factors including past operating results, budgets, economic projections, market trends and product development cycles. If the net book value of the asset exceeds the related undiscounted cash flows, the asset is considered impaired, and a second test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss. |

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES & REALIZATION OF ASSETS (CONTINUED) |
Website Development Costs |
The Company recognizes the costs associated with developing a website in accordance with ASC 350-50 "Website Development Cost" that codified the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants ("AICPA") Statement of Position ("SOP") NO. 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" and the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) NO.00-2, "Accounting for Website Development Costs". The website development cost are divided into three stage, planning, development and production. The development stage can further be classified as application and infrastructure development, graphics development and content development, In short, website development cost for internal use should be capitalized except content input and data conversion in content development stage. Costs associated with the website consist primarily of website development costs paid to third party. These capitalized costs will be amortized based on their estimated useful life over three years upon the website becoming operational. Internal costs related to the development of website content will be charged to operations as incurred. |
Income Tax |
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC 740 "Income Taxes" which codified SFAS 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Under the asset and liability method of ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. 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. Under ASC 740, the effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period the enactment occurs. A valuation allowance is provided for certain deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that the Company will not realize tax assets through future operations. |
Revenue Recognition |

The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably measurable. |
Stock-based Compensation |
ASC 718 "Compensation - Stock Compensation" codified SFAS No. 123 prescribes accounting and reporting standards for all stock-based payments award to employees, including employee stock options, restricted stock, employee stock purchase plans and stock appreciation rights, may be classified as either equity or liabilities.

A present obligation to settle in cash or other assets exists if: (a) the option to settle by issuing equity instruments lacks commercial substance or (b) the present obligation is implied because of an entity's past practices or stated policies. If a present obligation exists, the transaction should be recognized as a liability; otherwise, the transaction should be recognized as equity. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation issued to non-employees and consultants in accordance with the provisions of ASC 505-50 "Equity - Based Payments to Non-Employees" which codified SFAS 123 and the Emerging Issues Task Force consensus in Issue No. 96-18 ("EITF 96-18"), "Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services". Measurement of share-based payment transactions with non-employees shall be based on the fair value of whichever is more reliably measurable: (a) the goods or services received; or (b) the equity instruments issued.

Segmented Reporting |
The Company operates in two reportable segments. FASB ASC 280-10 (SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information"), establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in their annual consolidated financial statements. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company's operations segments include business consulting services and trading of computers. However, the Company stopped the consulting services because of adverse market condition. |
Foreign Currency Translation |
The Company ' s functional and reporting currency is the United States dollar. The accounts of the Company's Hong Kong China and European subsidiaries are maintained, in the Hong Kong dollars (HKD), Chinese Renminbi, and European Euro (EUR) respectively. Such financial statements are translated into U.S. Dollars (USD) in accordance with ASC 830 "Foreign Currency Translation" which codified Statement of Financial Accounts Standards ("SFAS") No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation," with the respective currency as the functional currency. According to the Statement, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet date, stockholder's equity are translated at the historical rates and statement of operations items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the year. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income. As of June 30, 2010, the comprehensive income was $518,885 (September 30, 2009: Nil). |
Recent Pronouncements |
Recently Implemented Standards |
ASC 105, Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("ASC 105") (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162) reorganized by topic existing accounting and reporting guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") into a single source of authoritative generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") to be applied by nongovernmental entities. All guidance contained in the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") carries an equal level of authority. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. Accordingly, all other accounting literature will be deemed "non-authoritative". ASC 105 is effective on a prospective basis for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has implemented the guidance included in ASC 105 as of July 1, 2009. The implementation of this guidance changed the Company's references to GAAP authoritative guidance but did not impact the Company's financial position or results of operations. |
ASC 855, Subsequent Events ("ASC 855") (formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 165, Subsequent Events) includes guidance that was issued by the FASB in May 2009, and is consistent with current auditing standards in defining a subsequent event. Additionally, the guidance provides for disclosure regarding the existence and timing of a company's evaluation of its subsequent events. ASC 855 defines two types of subsequent events, "recognized" and "non-recognized". Recognized subsequent events provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the balance sheet and are required to be reflected in the financial statements. Non-recognized subsequent events provide evidence about conditions that did not exist at the date of the balance sheet but arose after that date and, therefore; are not required to be reflected in the financial statements. However, certain non-recognized subsequent events may require disclosure to prevent the financial statements from being misleading. This guidance was effective prospectively for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Company implemented the guidance included in ASC 855 as of April 1, 2009. The effect of implementing this guidance was not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. |

ASC 944, Financial Services - Insurance ("ASC 944") contains guidance that was previously issued by the FASB in May 2008 as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance Contracts - an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 that provides for changes to both the recognition and measurement of premium revenues and claim liabilities for financial guarantee insurance contracts that do not qualify as a derivative instrument in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (formerly included under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities). This financial guarantee insurance contract guidance also expands the disclosure requirements related to these contracts to include such items as a company's method of tracking insured financial obligations with credit deterioration, financial information about the insured financial obligations, and management's policies for placing and monitoring the insured financial obligations. ASC 944, as it relates to financial guarantee insurance contracts, was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, except for certain disclosures related to the insured financial obligations, which were effective for the third quarter of 2008. The Company does not have financial guarantee insurance products, and, accordingly, the implementation of this portion of ASC 944 did not have an effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. |
ASC 805, Business Combinations ("ASC 805") (formerly included under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (revised 2007), Business Combinations) contains guidance that was issued by the FASB in December 2007. It requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value, with certain exceptions. Additionally, the guidance requires changes to the accounting treatment of acquisition related items, including, among other items, transaction costs, contingent consideration, restructuring costs, indemnification assets and tax benefits. ASC 805 also provides for a substantial number of new disclosure requirements. ASC 805 also contains guidance that was formerly issued as FSP FAS 141(R)-1, Accounting for Assets Acquired and Liabilities Assumed in a Business Combination That Arise from Contingencies which was intended to provide additional guidance clarifying application issues regarding initial recognition and measurement, subsequent measurement and accounting, and disclosure of assets and liabilities arising from contingencies in a business combination. ASC 805 was effective for business combinations initiated on or after the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. The Company implemented this guidance effective January 1, 2009. Implementing this guidance did not have an effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations; however it will likely have an impact on the Company's accounting for future business combinations, but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions, if any, that are made in the future. |
ASC 810, Consolidation ("ASC 810") includes new guidance issued by the FASB in December 2007 governing the accounting for and reporting of noncontrolling interests (previously referred to as minority interests). This guidance established reporting requirements which include, among other things, that noncontrolling interests be reflected as a separate component of equity, not as a liability. It also requires that the interests of the parent and the noncontrolling interest be clearly identifiable. Additionally, increases and decreases in a parent's ownership interest that leave control intact shall be reflected as equity transactions, rather than step acquisitions or dilution gains or losses. This guidance also requires changes to the presentation of information in the financial statements and provides for additional disclosure requirements. ASC 810 was effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company implemented this guidance as of January 1, 2009. The effect of implementing this guidance was not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. |

ASC 825, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825") includes guidance which was issued in February 2007 by the FASB and was previously included under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. The related sections within ASC 825 permit a company to choose, at specified election dates, to measure at fair value certain eligible financial assets and liabilities that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. The specified election dates include, but are not limited to, the date when an entity first recognizes the item, when an entity enters into a firm commitment or when changes in the financial instrument causes it to no longer qualify for fair value accounting under a different accounting standard. An entity may elect the fair value option for eligible items that exist at the effective date. At that date, the difference between the carrying amounts and the fair values of eligible items for which the fair value option is elected should be recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. The fair value option may be elected for each entire financial instrument, but need not be applied to all similar instruments. Once the fair value option has been elected, it is irrevocable. Unrealized gains and losses on items for which the fair value option has been elected will be reported in earnings. This guidance was effective as of the beginning of fiscal years that began after November 15, 2007. The Company does not have eligible financial assets and liabilities, and, accordingly, the implementation of ASC 825 did not have an effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. |
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820") (formerly included under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements) includes guidance that was issued by the FASB in September 2006 that created a common definition of fair value to be used throughout generally accepted accounting principles. ASC 820 applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, with certain exceptions. This guidance established a hierarchy for determining fair value which emphasizes the use of observable market data whenever available. It also required expanded disclosures which include the extent to which assets and liabilities are measured at fair value, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measures on earnings. ASC 820 also provides additional guidance for estimating fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased. The emphasis of ASC 820 is that fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants, under current market conditions. ASC 820 also further clarifies the guidance to be considered when determining whether or not a transaction is orderly and clarifies the valuation of securities in markets that are not active. This guidance includes information related to a company's use of judgment, in addition to market information, in certain circumstances to value assets which have inactive markets. |
Fair value guidance in ASC 820 was initially effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and for interim periods within those fiscal years for financial assets and liabilities. The effective date of ASC 820 for all non-recurring fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities was fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. Guidance related to fair value measurements in an inactive market was effective in October 2008 and guidance related to orderly transactions under current market conditions was effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009. |
The Company applied the provisions of ASC 820 to its financial assets and liabilities upon adoption at January 1, 2008 and adopted the remaining provisions relating to certain nonfinancial assets and liabilities on January 1, 2009. The difference between the carrying amounts and fair values of those financial instruments held upon initial adoption, on January 1, 2008, was recognized as a cumulative effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings and was not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. The Company implemented the guidance related to orderly transactions under current market conditions as of April 1, 2009, which also was not material to the Company's financial position or results of operations. |

In August 2009, the FASB issued ASC Update ("ASU") No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Measuring Liabilities at Fair Value ("ASC Update No. 2009-05"). This update amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures and provides further guidance on measuring the fair value of a liability. The guidance establishes the types of valuation techniques to be used to value a liability when a quoted market price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, such as the use of an identical or similar liability when traded as an asset. The guidance also further clarifies that a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are both Level 1 fair value measurements. If adjustments are required to be applied to the quoted price, it results in a level 2 or 3 fair value measurement. The guidance provided in the update is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The Company does not expect that the implementation of ASC Update No. 2009-05 will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. |
In September 2009, the FASB issued ASC Update ("ASU") No. 2009-12, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820): Investments in Certain Entities that Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent) ("ASC Update No. 2009-12"). This update sets forth guidance on using the net asset value per share provided by an investee to estimate the fair value of an alternative investment. Specifically, the update permits a reporting entity to measure the fair value of this type of investment on the basis of the net asset value per share of the investment (or its equivalent) if all or substantially all of the underlying investments used in the calculation of the net asset value is consistent with ASC 820. The update also requires additional disclosures by each major category of investment, including, but not limited to, fair value of underlying investments in the major category, significant investment strategies, redemption restrictions, and unfunded commitments related to investments in the major category. The amendments in this update are effective for interim and annual periods ending after December 15, 2009 with early application permitted. The Company does not expect that the implementation of ASC Update No. 2009-12 will have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. |
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU No. 2009-13, Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)." ("ASC Update No. 2009-13). This updates set forth the guidance on the existing multiple-element arrangement currently in FASB Topic 605-25 (Revenue Recognition - Multiple-Element Arrangements). This new guidance eliminates the requirement that all undelivered elements have objective evidence of fair value before a company can recognize the portion of the overall arrangement fee that is attributable to the items that have already been delivered. Further, companies will be required to allocate revenue in arrangements involving multiple deliverables based on the estimated selling price of each deliverable, even though such deliverables are not sold separately by either company itself or other vendors. This new guidance also significantly expands the disclosures required for multiple-element revenue arrangements. The revised guidance will be effective for the first annual period beginning on or after June 15, 2010. The Company does not expect that the implementation of ASU No. 2009-13 will have a material effect on its financial statements. |

In June 2009, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R) ("Statement No. 167"). Statement No. 167 amends FASB Interpretation No. 46R, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities an interpretation of ARB No. 51 ("FIN 46R") to require an analysis to determine whether a company has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. This analysis identifies the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity as the enterprise that has a) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and b) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. The statement requires an ongoing assessment of whether a company is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity when the holders of the entity, as a group, lose power, through voting or similar rights, to direct the actions that most significantly affect the entity's economic performance. This statement also enhances disclosures about a company's involvement in variable interest entities. Statement No. 167 is effective as of the beginning of the first annual reporting period that begins after November 15, 2009. Although Statement No. 167 has not been incorporated into the Codification, in accordance with ASC 105, the standard shall remain authoritative until it is integrated. The Company does not expect the adoption of Statement No. 167 to have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. |
In June 2009, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets an amendment of FASB Statement No. 140 ("Statement No. 166"). Statement No. 166 revises FASB Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Extinguishment of Liabilities a replacement of FASB Statement 125 ("Statement No. 140") and requires additional disclosures about transfers of financial assets, including securitization transactions, and any continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. It also eliminates the concept of a "qualifying special-purpose entity", changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets, and enhances disclosure requirements. Statement No. 166 is effective prospectively, for annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009, and interim and annual periods thereafter. Although Statement No. 166 has not been incorporated into the Codification, in accordance with ASC 105, the standard shall remain authoritative until it is integrated. The Company does not expect the adoption of Statement No. 166 will have a material impact on its financial position or results of operations. |
Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective |
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standard update, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (Topic 820), Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. The Update would affect all entities that are required to make disclosures about recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The Board concluded that users will benefit from improved disclosures in this Update and that the benefits of the increased transparency in financial reporting will outweigh the costs of complying with the new requirements. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 30, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact this update will have on our financial statements. |

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Effective (Continued) |
In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standard update to address implementation issues related to the changes in ownership provisions in the Consolidation-Overall Subtopic (Subtopic 810-10) of the FASB Accounting Standards CodificationTM, originally issued as FASB Statement No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements. Subtopic 810-10 establishes the accounting and reporting guidance for noncontrolling interests and changes in ownership interests of a subsidiary. An entity is required to deconsolidate a subsidiary when the entity ceases to have a controlling financial interest in the subsidiary. Upon deconsolidation of a subsidiary, an entity recognizes a gain or loss on the transaction and measures any retained investment in the subsidiary at fair value. The gain or loss includes any gain or loss associated with the difference between the fair value of the retained investment in the subsidiary and its carrying amount at the date the subsidiary is deconsolidated. In contrast, an entity is required to account for a decrease in its ownership interest of a subsidiary that does not result in a change of control of the subsidiary as an equity transaction. |
In December 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standard update for improvements to financial reporting by enterprises involved with Variable Interest Entities. The subsections clarify the application of the General Subsections to certain legal entities in which equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the legal entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support [FIN 46(R), paragraph 1, sequence 55.1] or, as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack any one of the following three characteristics: [FIN 46(R), paragraph 1, sequence 55.2: |
a. The power, through voting rights or similar rights, to direct the activities of a legal entity that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance [FIN 46(R), paragraph 1, sequence 55.2.1]; |
b. The obligation to absorb the expected losses of the legal entity [FIN 46(R), paragraph 1, sequence 55.2.2]; |
c. The right to receive the expected residual returns of the legal entity. [FIN 46(R), paragraph 1, sequence 55.2.3]. |
The amendments in this update to the Accounting Standards Codification are the result of FASB Statement No. 167, Amendments to FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). The adoption of this update to improving the financial reporting by enterprises involved with Variable Interest Entities, as codified in ASC 810, did not have any impact on the Company's financial statements. |
In December 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued an accounting standard update, Transfers and Servicing (Topic 860) Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. The amendments in this update to the Accounting Standards Codification are the result of FASB Statement No. 166, Accounting for Transfers of Financial Assets. The adoption of this update did not have any impact on the Company's financial statements. |

The consideration for the acquisition is a payment of up to EUR 2,000,000 and the issuance of 15,520,000 shares of the Company's common stock valued at $0.01 per share. |
The number of shares held by the Company's original shareholders (i.e. shareholders of Asiarim before the issuance of 15,520,000 issues) after the acquisition is 14,693,333, which accounts for approximately 54.72% of the total number of shares issued and outstanding, i.e. 26,850,000. Having considered the fact that the Company has a controlling financial interest in this acquisition, the Company is regarded as acquirer and the acquisition of the Commodore Licensing B.V. by Asiarim is not a reverse takeover. |
In February 2010, the Group entered into an agreement to acquire 51% of C= Holdings B.V. for a consideration of EUR 300,000. After the purchase, C= Holdings B.V. became an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. |

8. INCOME TAX |
No provision was made for income tax for the period from June 15, 2007 (Inception) to June 30, 2010 as the Company and its subsidiary had operating losses. For the period from June 15, 2007 (Inception) to June 30, 2010, the Company and its subsidiary incurred net operating losses for tax purposes of approximately $433,698 and $495,504, respectively. Total net operating losses carried forward at June 30, 2010, (i) for Federal and State purposes were $433,698 and $433,698, respectively and (ii) for its entities outside of the United States were $495,504 for the period ended June 30, 2010. The net operating loss carry-forward may be used to reduce taxable income through the year 2026. The availability of the Company's net operating loss carry-forwards is subject to limitation if there is a 50% or more change in the ownership of the Company's stock. |
There was no significant difference between reportable income tax and statutory income tax. The gross deferred tax asset balance as of June 30, 2010 was approximately $182,839 of which $65,055 was for US federal income tax and $11,826 was for Hong Kong income tax and $105,958 was for Europe income tax. A 100% valuation allowance has been established against the deferred tax asset, as the utilization of the loss carry-forwards cannot reasonably be assured. |
As reconciliation between the income taxes computed at the United States and Hong Kong statutory rate and the Group's provision for income taxes is as follows: |

Overview
Asiarim Corporation, a Nevada corporation, was formed on June 15, 2007. We were originally formed to be a business consulting firm with a mission to provide business consulting services (i.e. strategic business planning and management consulting, etc.) to small domestic companies as well as to assist "small to medium" sized companies in the Asia Pacific Region, particularly in China, to establish a business presence in the United States. The Company also offered a range of electronic document conversion service for companies and individuals that need to file periodically with the SEC EDGAR system; however in the current fiscal year, the Company has stopped its consulting services business and this filing business so that it can focus on the other businesses in the Group. |
In January 2009, the Company entered into an agreement to source, manufacture, market, sell and distribute of Commodore branded products. The Company commenced purchasing and sale of samples of Commodore products at the ended March 31, 2009 and commenced commercial sales operation for its consumer electronics in May 2009. |
In September 2009, the Company entered into a conditional Participation Agreement to acquire the 49% interests in the "Commodore" brand, the entire European operation of Commodore and the remaining interests of our Asian operation for a total cash consideration of up to Euro 2,000,000 and the issuance of 15,520,000 shares of the Company. This transaction consolidates all the Commodore operations worldwide under the Company. On January 6, 2010, the Company closed this transaction. |
In February 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the other 51% interests in the "Commodore" brand for EUR 300,000. After this transaction, the Company owns the rights for the Commodore brand and the extended operations in Europe. We believe that acquiring such assets will enable us to provide future growth to the Group. |
At the date hereof, the Company still has not made any payment in respect of these acquisitions and will need to raise money to pay off the payment obligations. |
As announced in a Form 8K filed on July 8, 2010, the Company entered into a conditional agreement with Ascenda Corporation ("Ascenda") to set up a joint venture company ("JV Company") to be engaged in the business of design, sourcing, development, procurement, trade financing and product support for certain computer and mobile (smart) phone products and other products, from time to time, under the "Commodore" brand name. Ascenda is an experienced electronic sourcing company in China and they will head the manufacturing and sourcing of computer and mobile devices. |
During the period under review, the Group refocused its efforts to work with a new manufacturing and sourcing partner, Ascenda. The Group has also expanded its product line to include mobile (smart) devices in anticipation of providing gaming applications in its products. |
Business Overview |
Business Overview - Consulting services |
The financial meltdown of the global economy has put many businesses in a very conservative operation for 2009. Our management consulting business was detrimentally affected by the overall sentiments of the capital market as businesses conserved or stopped expansion or postponed development efforts in their businesses. The Company therefore stopped its consulting services business during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 and focused exclusively in the computer electronics business. |
Business Overview - Consumer Electronics Business |
On January 5, 2009 the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Commodore Licensing B.V. (formerly known as CIC Europe Holding B.V.), a former subsidiary of Reunite Investments Inc. (formerly known as Commodore International Corporation ("CIC")) to form a 50/50 joint venture company named Commodore Asia Holdings Limited ("CAHL") to facilitate the manufacturing and distribution of computer products under the brand name of Commodore for the territories of Asia and Africa. Under the terms of the joint venture agreement and exclusive trademark license agreement, CIC will contribute the exclusive license brand to Asia and Africa for a period of 5 years plus an automatic extension of a further 5 years, and the Company will contribute up to a maximum of $7 million. CIC shall also have the right to exchange its 50% interests in the joint venture for 50% interests in the Company, subject to the joint venture company achieving certain sales conditions. The joint venture company shall be responsible for providing sourcing and developing of new products for CIC and its affiliates worldwide, and the marketing and distributing of Commodore branded products in Asia and Africa. |

In September 2009, the Company entered into a conditional Participation Agreement to acquire the 49% interests in the Commodore brand, the entire European operation of Commodore and the remaining interests of our Asian operation for a total cash consideration of up to EUR 2,000,000 and the issuance of 15,520,000 shares of the Company. On January 6, 2010, the Company closed this transaction, effectively solidifying the worldwide Commodore operation under the Company. |
In February 2010, the Company entered into an agreement to acquire the other 51% of C= Holdings B.V. (formerly known as Commodore International B.V.) for a total amount of EUR 300,000. After the acquisition, the Company now has the ownership rights for the Commodore brand and have now secured the extended operation in Europe. We believe that acquiring such assets will enable us to provide future growth to the Group. At the date hereof, the Company still has not made any payment in respect of these acquisitions and will need to raise money to pay off the payment obligations. |
History |
Commodore was a pioneer in the computer industry. The Commodore C64 was one of the most popular computer models of its time. From 1982 to 1994, more than 17 million units of the Commodore C64 were being sold. |
The trade name Commodore can be dated back to 1954 and is one of the oldest and most well respected name in the consumer electronics and computer industry. |
Business Segment and Development |
As disclosed in our 10K Filing for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009 the Company has started setting up the corporate structure and the business operations in Asia. The Company has 1) set up the manufacturing operations with our manufacturing partners, 2) set up the sales fulfillment network with selective countries in the Asia Pacific and Africa, 3) opened selected markets in Asia and Africa and 4) introduced a new exciting line of netbook computers, notebook computers, pen touch computers and monitors, pen touch tablet computers, a multimedia internet device ("MID"), and a line of entertainment devices. |
During the three months ended June 30, 2010, the Company continued to prepare the product line up for 2010, and in particular to follow up on the leads from the 2010 CES show In Las Vegas. We have focused mainly to identify and secure the product line for 2010. During this quarter we have made organization and structure change. Furthermore we are working with our customers on indication 2010 orders, and we are still working to secure such sales orders with proper guarantee payments to the factories. For 2010, our primary focus will be in the notebook and netbooks, and the smart phone markets. We will let the other product lines to be launched in 2011. |
With the completion of the acquisition of Commodore Licensing B.V. in January 2010, we have now consolidated the worldwide operation under the Company. After securing the plan we plan to introduce our new line of computer and entertainment products into the USA and European markets in the second half of 2010. We will select distributors in each region and countries to represent our products. Furthermore with additional funding, the Asia Pacific operation expects to select distributors in Australia, Malaysia, China and select countries in Africa in the coming 6 months. |
In January 2010, the Company presented its products at the 2010 Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas with overwhelming interests from retailers and distributors. We expect to carry these interests into sales orders for the coming year. Although the computer market is extremely competitive, the Commodore name still carries many nostalgic memories for computer users where it represents their first computer experience. Thus we believe that our quality products and brand name will stir up the emotional response for users and choose our products over our competitors due to affiliation to the Commodore brand. |
Our efforts now are to realize some of these interests into sales opportunities. Going forward, the Company will establish sales networks in United Kingdom, USA, China and Australia to launch our products. |
Our business will be divided into 3 segments: Product Development and Manufacturing, Media Content and Brand Licensing & Distribution. |
31
Product Development and Manufacturing |
We will work with our manufacturing partners and outside product design houses as part of our team to develop innovative products. In the coming year we will continue to focus on innovative devices in all our product lines including convergent devices connecting the communication and computers into a single seamless integrated device. |
We will also introduce a line of Pen Touch computers and Notebook computers to reposition the brand into the mainstream computer markets. |
Media Content |
In line with the COMMODORE strategy for our branded products, we will have all our products and devices link to our content portal at www.commodoreworld.com. Certain of our products will be equipped with a hotkey for a one touch linkup. Our customers will be offered services to keep and manage all their digital files, including but not limited to, online entertainment, news and personal entertainment center. We expect to commence activities in the Media Content in second half of 2010 by setting up the servers in Hong Kong. We shall also arrange for cooperation with content providers to offer contents on our Commodore portal for our device owners. |
Brand Licensing & Distribution |
The Company has introduced the re-launch of Commodore branded products at the 2010 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas to its customers worldwide. We are working on securing the orders for the coming year. |

higher penetration levels within our existing customers through increases in the products offered and sold; |
|
* |
development and sales of new products not presently being offered by us; |
|
* |
expansion of our existing customer base through our sales staff and outside sales representative organizations; |
|
* |
continuation in capitalizing on the Commodore trademarks through outward license agreements with third parties to license the Commodore trademarks for products not currently being sold, and in geographic areas not presently being served; and |
|
* |
expansion through strategic mergers with and acquisitions of other business. |
We believe that the Commodore trademark is recognized in many countries. A principal component of our growth strategy is to utilize this global recognition of our brand name and our reputation for quality and cost competitive products to aggressively promote our products in these geographic territories. We believe that we will be able to compete more effectively by combining innovative approaches to our current product line and augmenting our product line with complementary products. We intend to pursue such plans either independently or through partnership with other companies as well as license arrangements, distributorship agreements and joint ventures. |
Sales and Distribution |
We have an integrated system to coordinate the purchasing, sales and distribution aspects of our operations. We receive orders from our customers, via electronic data interface, facsimile, telephone or mail. We do not have long-term contracts with any of our customers, but rather receive orders on an ongoing basis. Products sourced by us, generally from the southern China, are shipped by ocean or air freight. |
Marketing |
We will market and distribute our products in the USA, Europe, Asia Pacific and Africa primarily through: | ||
* |
mass merchandisers; |
|
* |
discount retailers; |
|
* |
electronics retailers; and |
|
* |
distributors and specialty catalogers. |
Design and Manufacturing |
Our products are and will be manufactured by several original equipment manufacturers in accordance with our specifications. |
We have cooperation with a design team based in Shenzhen, China which is responsible for product development and works closely with the manufacturers. We work with the engineers to determine the detailed cosmetic, electronic and other features for new products, which typically incorporate commercially available electronic parts to be assembled according to our design. Accordingly, the exterior designs and operating features of the products reflect our judgment of current styles and consumer preferences. Our designs are tailored to meet the consumer preferences worldwide. |
33
Warranties |
We offer limited warranties for our multi-media consumer electronics products. Such warranties typically consist of a one year manufacturing defects for UMPCs under the condition that we or the manufacturer will provide spare parts to fix, or offer a new or similar unit in exchange for a non-performing unit, depending on the circumstances. |
Competition |
The industry is characterized by the short life cycle of products, which requires continuous re-design, improvement and development efforts. |
We primarily compete in the medium-priced sector of the netbook and multimedia products market. Management estimates that we have several dozen competitors that are manufacturers and/or distributors, many of which are much larger and have greater financial resources than Asiarim. We compete primarily on the basis of: |
||
* |
brand recognition; |
|
* |
reliability; |
|
* |
quality; |
|
* |
price; |
|
* |
design; |
|
* |
consumer acceptance of our products; and |
|
* |
high quality service and support to retailers and their customers. |
We also compete at the retail level for shelf space and promotional displays, all of which have an impact on our success in established and proposed distribution channels. |

OPERATING EXPENSES |
For the three months period ended June 30, 2010, our gross profit was $9 and our total operating expenses were $120,880, all of which were selling, general and administrative expenses. We also had $27,784 in interest expenses and net loss to our shareholders for the three months period ended June 30, 2010 was $148,655. This is in comparison to the same period ended June 30, 2009 where our gross profit was $1,427 and our total operating expenses were $24,706, all of which were general and administration expenses. We also had loss attributable to minority interest of $9,057 and the net loss to our shareholders was $14,222 for the three months ended June 30, 2009. |
34
For the nine months period ended June 30, 2010, our gross profit was $930 and our total operating expenses were $837,717, all of which were selling, general and administrative expenses, and loss attributable to minority interest of $13,442. We also had $50,814 in interest expenses. Our net loss to our shareholders for the nine months period ended June 30, 2010 was $874,159. This is in comparison to the same period ended June 30, 2009 where our gross profit was $5,858 and our total operating expenses were $54,116, all of which were general and administration expenses. We also had $86 in interest expenses and the loss attributable to minority interest of $18,463. Our net loss to our shareholders was $29,881 for the nine months ended June 30, 2009. The main factor for the increase in the losses were the compensation agreement with a former representative of Commodore Licensing B.V. for $350,000, the increase in costs attributable from the European operation with administration costs of about $288,848. In the nine months ended June 30, 2009 there were no such costs of this nature. |
Liquidity and Capital Resources |
We do not have sufficient resources to effectuate our business. As of June 30, 2010, we had $2,298 in cash. With the acquisition of the European operation and the Commodore brand, we expect to incur a minimum of $1,000,000 in expenses during the next twelve months of operations on top of our debt obligation as shown in the financial statements of the Company. We estimate that this will be comprised of the following expenses: $600,000 in product development and production costs, $10,000 website development; $100,000 in marketing expenses, and $290,000 in general administrative expenses such as for salaries, corporate, legal and accounting fees, office overhead and general working capital. |
In January 2010, the Company closed the transaction to acquire the Commodore European operation and to acquire 49% of the Commodore brand. In February 2010, the Company entered into agreement to acquire the remaining 51% of the brand company for EUR 300,000. In total the Company has obligations of about EUR 1.8 million or about US$2.4 million in respective of these acquisitions. In addition, the Company entered into a compensation agreement for a total amount of $350,000 to be paid in installments in 2010. At the date hereof the Company has not made any payments. |
We may have to raise funds to pay for our expenses and our debt obligations. We may have to borrow money from shareholders or issue debt or equity or enter into a strategic arrangement with a third party. There can be no assurance that additional capital will be available to us. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have no such arrangements or plans currently in effect, our inability to raise funds for our operations will have a severe negative impact on our ability to remain a viable company. |
Going Concern Consideration |
Our independent auditors included an explanatory paragraph in their report on the financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2009 regarding concerns about our ability to continue as a going concern. During the quarter ended June 30, 2010 the Company had revenues of $269 and incurred a net profit of $9; and an accumulated net loss of $929,202 for the period from June 15, 2007 (inception) to June 30, 2010. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern must be considered in light of the problems, expenses and complications frequently encountered in emerging markets and the competitive environment in which the Company operates. The Company is pursuing financing for its operations. In addition the Company is seeking to expand its revenue base by adding new clients to our customer base and entering into new profitable businesses. Failure to secure such financing, to raise additional equity capital and to expand its revenue base may result in the Company depleting its available funds and not being able to pay its obligations. These financial statements do not include any adjustment to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amount sand classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern. |
