Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements

The discussion contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (“Annual Report”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and Section 21E of the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Any statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases like “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “target,” “expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend,” “we may,” “we will,” “we should,” “we seek,” “we plan,” the negative of those terms, and similar words or phrases. We base these forward-looking statements on our expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate as of the date of this Annual Report. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted, quantified or controlled and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying the forward-looking statements. Statements in this Annual Report describe factors, among others, that could contribute to or cause these differences. Actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect. Because the factors discussed in this Annual Report could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statement. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which will arise. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. Except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly revise our forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date of this Annual Report or the date of documents incorporated by reference herein that include forward-looking statements.

PART I

Item 1. Business.

Corporate History

We were incorporated as Forever Zen Ltd. on March 20, 2010 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On December 13, 2013, we changed our name to Nownews Digital Media Technology Co Ltd. and planned to enter into the business of internet media and news content. Prior to the Share Exchange described below, we were a development stage company and had not yet realized any revenues from our planned operations.

On November 14, 2014 (the “Closing Date”), we entered into and closed a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), with Worldwide Media Investments Corp., an Anguilla corporation (“Worldwide”), the shareholders of Worldwide, and NOWnews Network Co., Ltd., a Taiwan corporation (“NOWnews”). Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, (i) the Company issued an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Worldwide in exchange for all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Worldwide. Worldwide, through its wholly owned subsidiary, Sky Media Investments Co., Ltd. (“Sky Media”), owns 66% of all the issued and outstanding capital stock of NOWnews (the “Share Exchange”). Immediately following the closing of the Share Exchange, we had a total of 22,412,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock, of which 6,262,400 shares were beneficially held by Alan Chen. As a result of the Share Exchange, Worldwide and Sky Media become our wholly owned subsidiary and NOWnews is now our majority owned subsidiary in which we indirectly holds 66% of the equity interest. Upon consummation of the Share Exchange, we assumed the business of NOWnews and ceased to be a shell company.

In connection with the Share Exchange Agreement, Alan Chen and his spouse, Chiu-Li Tu, executed a personal guarantee in favor of the Company whereby they jointly and severally guarantee to make a cash payment to the Company in the amount of the net loss from operations of the Company, if any, within 15 business days of the date of the issuance of the audited financial statements of the Company for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2015.

Corporate Structure

The diagram below illustrates our corporate structure as of the date of this report.

Worldwide was incorporated in Anguilla on June 4, 2013 under the Anguilla International Business Companies Act, 2000. Its authorized capital stock is 20,000,000 shares all of which are issued and outstanding.

Sky Media was incorporated under the laws of Anguilla on June 4, 2013. Its authorized capital stock is 20,000,000 shares all of which are issued and outstanding.

NOWnews was incorporated in Taipei City, Taiwan on June 8, 2006. Its authorized capital stock is 20,000,000 shares of which 12,070,000 shares are issued and outstanding.

NOWnews owns 55% of the equity interest of Nownews International Marketing Co., Ltd, a Taiwan corporation (“Nownews International”), primarily engaged in sales of advertising spaces in its own newspapers. The operation of Nownews International was terminated in December 2013.

Recent Development

Change in Fiscal Year End

On November 14, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a change in the Company’s fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31.

Change in Principal Executive Offices

In an effort to save costs, we decided to terminate our existing lease with Shin Kong Life Insurance Co., Ltd. for the office space at 4F No. 550, Riuguang Road, Neihu, District, Taipei City 114, Taiwan, for which we pay approximately $10,000 per month. On March 3, 2015, we signed an office lease with Yiqiu International Department Store Co., Ltd. from whom we lease a floor area of approximately 7,117.35 square feet for a term of two years with a monthly rent of approximately $7,336 (NT$231,000). The lease expires on April 14, 2017. Our principal executive offices have been moved to 4F, No. 32, Ln. 407, Sec. 2, Tiding Road, Neihu District, Taipei City 114, Taiwan. On March 15, 2015, we terminated the lease with Shin Kong without any penalty for early termination.

Principal Services

We generate our revenues primarily from online advertising and marketing services and news content licensing.

Advertising and Marketing

Our advertising product offerings consist of banner, button, text-link and video advertisements that appear on pages within our website, and advertising campaign design and management services. Our primary advertising and sponsorship client base for advertising and sponsorships includes international and local companies. We offer brand advertising services in display formats on our website as well as performance-based online marketing solutions, such as promoted feeds on mobile or tablet. Display advertising comprises the text, images and other interactive ads that run across the web on computers and mobile devices, including content specially formatted to be displayed on smartphones, tablets and other mobile personal digital devices.

We also provide advertising campaign design and management services for a fee. Our services include design and implementation of marketing and advertising projects consisting of content advertising through publishing topic news and experience articles, pop-up or embedded advertisements on our website or applications, creation of visual/mobile/audio advertisement, etc. Through these services, we help our clients establish their corporate image and brand and market their products.

News Content Licensing

We have our own team comprising journalists and editors who produce over 350 news articles/reports on a daily basis, covering real-time diversified news including politics, finance, life, technology, sport, entertainment, travel and others. Besides, NOWnews also licenses its self-created news content to major portals and corporate partners with more extensive news network, such as Yahoo Hong Kong, Yahoo Taiwan, MSN Taiwan, Yam, Sina Taiwan, Taiwan Mobile, Chunghwa Telecom, Far EasTone Telecommunications Co. Ltd., Vibo Telecom, etc.

Historically, we provided editing services to customers including selecting, sorting, editing news for other website operators such as Yahoo Taiwan. We ceased this service in December 2013 because this service was not profitable. In addition, we used to provide film/video editing services and licensed copyrights to a related party, Chunghwa Wideband Best Network Co., Ltd., and stopped in later 2013.

E-Commerce

We started our E-commerce business in July 2012 when we partnered with some online shopping websites and received commissions for diverting our website traffic to these shopping websites. We launched our E-commerce platform, NOWshopping, in March 2013 and engaged in the online sales of electronic products including electronics and computers, appliances etc. However, we suspended this line of business in April 2014 due to continuous losses. We are currently in the process of evaluating and adjusting this line of business and may resume operation in 2015.

Seasonality

We have experienced seasonality in our online advertising business. Historically, the periods from May through August and from November to January have seen increase of more than 20% in advertising revenues due to the summer break and the winter holiday season. February has historically been the worst month for our advertising business as it is after the Lunar New Year holidays when advertising revenues are generally down nationwide. Past performance may not be indicative of future trends, as the mix of advertising industry sectors, which may have different seasonality factors, may shift from quarter to quarter. There is no seasonality in its licensing business.

Regulation

Regulatory Authorities

We are subject to the supervision of the National Communications Commission of Republic of China (the “NCC”). The NCC was established in February 2006.

Permits, Licenses and Approvals

Pursuant to the Provisions on Broadcasting and Television Program Supply, to obtain the permit to engage in broadcasting and TV program supply business, we are required to meet two criteria: (i) minimum registered capital of NT$1,200,000 and (ii) minimum office area of approximately 377square feet. The operating permit should be obtained from Ministry of Culture before we apply for the business license for regular companies. As of the date of this report, NOWnews has obtained the approval for (i) production and distribution of radio and TV programs and (ii) radio and TV advertisement.

We believe we have all requisite permits, approvals and licenses to conduct our businesses.

Rating of Internet Content

The Regulations for the Rating of Internet Content was abolished by the NCC in 2012. At present, the rating of internet content is governed by Article 46 of the Protection of Children and Youths Welfare and Rights Act (last amended on February 4, 2015), which requires that all internet platform providers adopt their own rules implementing “clear and practicable” protection measures in accordance with the internet content supervisory institutions engaged by the NCC and other relevant authorities to prevent youth and children from having access to harmful internet contents. An internet platform provider is required to restrict children and youths from having access to internet content upon the relevant authority’s notification that such internet contents may be harmful or that such internet platform provider failed to implement “clear and practicable” protection measures.

Personal Data Protection Act

On May 26, 2010, the President of the Republic of China announced the amendment of the Personal Information Protection Act, or PIPA, which replaced the former Computer-Processed Personal Data Protection Act, or CPPDPA, and became fully effective on October 1, 2012, except for its Articles 6 and 54 that await further determination by the Executive Yuan. Under the PIPA, every individuals or governmental or non-governmental agencies, including us, should be subject to certain requirements and restrictions for collecting, processing or using personal data. The definition of “personal data” is extended to cover a broad scope, including name, birthday, ID, special features, fingerprints, marriage status, family, education, occupation, medical records, medical history, generic information, sex life, health examination report, criminal records, contact information, financial status, social activities, and any other data which is sufficient to directly or indirectly identify a specific person. If we fail to comply with the PIPA, we may be subject to serious punishment for civil claims, criminal offenses and administrative liabilities: the ceiling of the aggregate compensation amount for damages payable in a single case will be up to NT$200 million or the actual value of loss arising from our violation provided the amount of actual value of such loss is higher than NT$200 million; the defendant may be subject to an imprisonment of up to five years; and the penalty for administrative liabilities will be up to NT$500,000 for each violation, and may be imposed consecutively if such violation continues.

Foreign Investment

Pursuant to the provisions of the Statute for Investment by Foreign Nationals, there are only a few industries where foreign investments are restricted. None of the businesses of NOWnews fall under the restricted industries. Therefore, there is no restriction on foreign ownership in NOWnews. However, Taiwan restricts investments by the PRC nationals. In accordance with the Rules on Investment Permit by Nationals from the People’s Republic of China, only certain industries are open to the PRC nationals. The following businesses of NOWnews are open to the PRC nationals: Online and catalog shopping, non-store retail, portal website operation, data processing, website management and related services.

News Regulation

As a news generator, we are subject to regulations on contents of news. We are prohibited from creating or distributing certain news including but not limited to the following:

News that damages people’s reputation

News that invades people’s privacy

News that involves information on national defense

News that might influence judicial proceedings

Depending on the circumstances, in the event of violation of any of the foregoing restrictions, we may be subject to fines or criminal liabilities. In addition, we need to comply with requirements on news regarding election, public polls, and pharmaceuticals, etc.

Regulation on Advertisement

Companies are prohibited from using false or misleading advertising language and advertising agencies cannot help its clients design or create untrue or misleading advertisements. Otherwise, the agencies may be subject to the same liabilities as their clients.

Foreign Exchange

Foreign exchange regulation in Taiwan is primarily governed by the Ordinance of Foreign Exchange Administration, latest amended on April 29, 2009 (the “Foreign Exchange Ordinance”). Under the Foreign Exchange Ordinance, foreign exchange refers to foreign currency, bills and marketable securities. The authority managing the administration of foreign exchange is Ministry of Finance of Republic of China, while the authority managing the practical operation of foreign exchange business is Central Bank of Republic of China. The Foreign Exchange Ordinance also specifies the allocated power of Ministry of Finance and Central Bank, respectively. To the extent that any foreign exchange receipts, payments or transactions reach the threshold of NT$500,000 ($16,653) or equivalent in foreign currency, it must be reported to the Central Bank or its designated authorities. Upon incurrence of any of the following events, the State Council of Republic of China may determine and announce that for a period of time, to close the foreign exchange market, suspend or restrict all or partial foreign exchange payment, order a mandatory sale or deposit of all or partial foreign exchange into a designed bank, or dispose in any other manner as it deems necessary:

the disorder in domestic or international economy to the detriment of the stability of Taiwan’s economy; or

Taiwan suffers serious trade deficit.

Tax

The current principal regulations governing tax in Taiwan include the following:

Income Tax Law, latest amended on June 4, 2014;

The Implementation Rules of Income Tax Law, latest amended on September 30, 2014;

Value-Added and Non-Value-Added Business Tax Law, latest amended on June 4, 2014; and

The Implementation Rules of Value-Added and Non-Value-Added Business Tax Law, latest amended on May 2, 2014.

Under the Income Tax Law, there are two kinds of income tax, comprehensive income tax for individuals and income tax for enterprises operating for profit, respectively.

Individuals who have income with a source within Taiwan must pay comprehensive income tax on their income sourced within Taiwan; while non-resident individuals having income with a source within Taiwan, except otherwise provided in the Income Tax Law, shall pay tax based on the amount attributable to the sources of their income.

The enterprise with head office located in Taiwan shall pay profit-seeking income tax on its global income both within and outside Taiwan; while the enterprises with head office outside Taiwan shall only pay profit-seeking income tax on its business income sourced from within Taiwan.

Rate of Income Tax

The individual comprehensive income tax exemption threshold is NT$60,000 ($1,998) per person per year. Any income beyond such exemption threshold is subject to a progressive tax rate ranging from 5% to 45%.

With respect to enterprises operating for profit, the exemption threshold is NT$120,000 ($3,961). Any income beyond such exemption threshold is subject to 17% tax rate on its taxable income.

Sale of goods or service, import of goods in Taiwan are subject to a Value-Added or Non-Value-Added Business Tax. The Rate of business tax, except as otherwise stipulated in the relevant tax law, ranges from 5% to 10% as determined by the State Council of Taiwan.

Enforceability of Judgments in Taiwan

All of our directors and executive officers named in this report are residents of Taiwan and substantially all of our assets and the assets of those persons are located in Taiwan. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process upon us or those persons outside of Taiwan, or to enforce against them judgments obtained in courts outside of Taiwan. Any final judgment obtained against us in any court other than the courts of the Republic of China in connection with any legal suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to our securities will be enforced by the courts of the Republic of China without further review of the merits only if the court of the Republic of China in which enforcement is sought is satisfied that:

•

the court rendering the judgment has jurisdiction over the subject matter according to the laws of the Republic of China;

•

the judgment and the court procedure resulting in the judgment are not contrary to the public order or good morals of the Republic of China;

•

if the judgment was rendered by default by the court rendering the judgment, we, or our officers and directors, were duly served within a reasonable period of time in accordance with the laws and regulations of the jurisdiction of the court or process was served on us with judicial assistance of the Republic of China; and

•

judgments at the courts of the Republic of China are recognized and enforceable in the court rendering the judgment on a reciprocal basis.

A party seeking to enforce a foreign judgment in the Republic of China would be required to obtain foreign exchange approval from the Central Bank of the Republic of China (Taiwan) for the payment out of Taiwan of any amounts recovered in connection with the judgment denominated in a currency other than NT dollars if a conversion from NT dollars to a foreign currency is involved.

Market Opportunities

Our current primary focus is on the Taiwan market. The success of our business is tied to the size and vitality of Taiwan’s economy. According to the World Bank, Taiwan’s gross domestic product in 2013 grew 3.74% year over year to 489.21 billion US dollars and the gross national income per capita is $20,910 in 2013.

Taiwan has one of the most advanced telecommunications networks in Asia. With excellent telecommunications infrastructure in place and the innovative use of breakthrough information technologies, Taiwan continues to be well placed to drive both mobile and data communications services. As reported by the International Telecommunication Union, the number of Internet users in Taiwan reached 18.69 million as of December 31, 2013. In 2013, the total broadband penetration had been lifted to over 100% when considering both fixed-line and mobile services. The proportion of the population who are internet users had reached 80% coming into 2014. There has been a rapid transition to 3G with these subscribers accounting for almost 90% of the total mobile subscriber base by the end of 2013. The increasing user base and high penetration of internet access makes Taiwan an attractive market for our company to expand our product offerings and to grow our revenue streams.

Competition

The market for Web sites offering online content and services targeting the global Chinese community is competitive and we expect competition to increase in the future. Many of the companies attempting to address this market offer portal, content and e-commerce services. The following table lists the Chinese-language Web sites that we believe are currently our primary competitors in Taiwan:

udn.com

appledaily.com.tw

Chinatimes.com

ltn.com.tw

ettoday.net

As internet usage in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan (collectively, the “Greater China”) increases and the Greater China market becomes more attractive to advertisers and for conducting fee-based services, large global competitors, such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Google, Twitter, Line, Kakao and WhatsApp, may increasingly focus their resources on the Greater China market. We cannot assure you that we will succeed in competing against the established and emerging competitors in the market. The increased competition could result in reduced traffic, loss of market share and revenues, and lower profit margins.

Our ability to compete successfully depends on many factors, including the quality of our content, the breadth, depth and ease of use of our services, our sales and marketing efforts and the performance of our technology. See also our discussion of competition under the “Risk Factors” contained in our current report on Form 8-K/A, filed on January 9, 2015 with the SEC.

Competitive Strength

We provide online content and services for the global Chinese community with a focus on Taiwan, including but not limited to informational features, social media and social networking services as well as other fee-based services. This industry can be characterized as highly competitive and rapidly changing due to the fast growing market demand. Barriers to entry are relatively low, and current and new competitors can launch new websites or services at a relatively low cost. Many companies offer various content and services targeting this community that compete with us. Many of our competitors have greater financial resources, a longer history of providing online services, a larger and more active user base, more established brand names and currently offer a greater breadth of products that may be more popular than our online offerings. However, we believe that we possess the following competitive strengths that enable us to compete effectively:

We have an outstanding editorial team which produces hundreds of news on a daily basis, covering real-time diversified news including politics, finance, life, technology, sport, entertainment, travel and others. Besides, we license our self-created news content to major portals and corporate partners with a stable and extensive news network. We believe this is very critical to attract readers and increase traffic volume of our website.

We have been focusing on new media operations and interaction with its members and fans. We believe we are the first news media which opened official accounts on LINE and WeChat, two very popular mobile messengers in Asia and created NOWnews fan group on Facebook.

With the growing popularity of mobile devices, we are the first to develop applications on mobile devices offering users real-time news anywhere at any time. The current daily traffic on our website exceeds 14 million and is mobile website has a daily traffic volume of approximately 4 million.

We have won numerous awards and is highly recognized and rated among our peers. Recognition and awards include:

14th among the top 100 websites in Taiwan in the survey conducted by comScore

18th on the “Top 100 Hottest Websites in Taiwan” and first among the original news websites by Digital Times in 2014

22th on the “Top 100 Most Popular Fan Clubs in Taiwan” by Digital Times in 2013

The Seventh and Eighth Quality Journalism Awards by the Ministry of the Interior of Taiwan

The 13th Cross-Strait News Reporting Award – Citizen News

The 2011 Excellent Alliance Partners by Yahoo Shopping Center

We are not only committed to the provision of quality news content, but also have ventured into the e-commerce business. We started trial operation of NOWshopping, an online shopping mall, in 2013. Despite that we have incurred continuous loss in the past and temporarily suspended our E-commerce business, we believe the existing membership base and high daily traffic volume on our website will put us in a very favorable position for online shopping business, particularly after we adjust our operating strategy for E-commerce business and re-launch it in the near future.

We have a very large member base, which includes approximately 1.6 million members, 320,000 shopping members, 160,000 Facebook fans and 700,000 LINE subscribers and 100,000 Wechat subscribers. We believe this member base will keep increasing and we will leverage this membership base to expand our business.

PRC implements strict control over the media. However, we are the only Taiwan internet media to which the PRC residents have full access – this, we believe, provides us with access to a very large potential reader base and tremendous business opportunities. Currently, approximately 7% of our traffic is from the PRC. Through our platform, we can build a cross-strait service system where we can promote Taiwan’s services or products to readers in the PRC. However, PRC regulatory authorities may find the contents on our website/mobile applications objectionable and block users in China from accessing our website and/or mobile applications. See our discussion in the “Risk Factors” section contained in our current report on Form 8-K/A, filed on January 9, 2015 with the SEC.

Our Web pages are generated, served and cached by servers hosted at various co-location Web hosting sites in Taiwan and the United States.

Our servers run on our own web-based platforms. These servers are maintained at Amazon in the United States and our offices in Taiwan. We believe that our hosting partners provide significant operating advantages, including an enhanced ability to protect our systems from power loss, break-ins and other potential external causes of service interruption. They provide continuous customer service, multiple connections to the Internet and a continuous power supply to our systems. In addition, we conduct online monitoring of all our systems for accessibility, load, system resources, network-server intrusion and timeliness of content.

Sales and Marketing

We enhance our brand images and visibility through participating in various public events, exchanging resources with other companies, and establishing partnership with other media companies. In addition, we focus on keyword marketing and search engine optimizing to increase the search ranking of our news content.

Research and Development

We do not have an in-house research and development (“R&D”) team but utilizes the R&D personnel and facilities of Chunghwa United Holding Group, a related company for technical support. For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, we did not incur any R&D expenses.

Currently, we focus on (i) developing the Drupal platform to host our website and (ii) using Drupal to build daily news from personal blogs and company applications. Drupal is an open source content management platform powering millions of websites and applications. It’s built, used, and supported by an active and diverse community of people around the world and has thousands of add-on modules and designs available for us to build and improve our website.

Intellectual Property

We rely on a combination of copyright, trademark, patent and trade secret laws and restrictions on disclosure to protect our intellectual property rights. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary rights, unauthorized parties may attempt to copy or otherwise obtain and use our technology. Monitoring unauthorized use of our products is difficult and costly, and we cannot be certain that the steps we have taken will prevent misappropriation of our technology, particularly in foreign countries where the laws may not protect our proprietary rights as fully as in the United States. From time to time, we may have to resort to litigation to enforce our intellectual property rights, which could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources.

In addition, third parties may initiate litigation against us alleging infringement of their proprietary rights. In the event of a successful claim of infringement and our failure or inability to develop non-infringing technology or license the infringed or similar technology on a timely basis, our business could be harmed. In addition, even if we are able to license the infringed or similar technology, license fees could be substantial and may adversely affect our results of operations. See also our discussion of protection of our intellectual property under the “Risk Factors” contained in our current report on Form 8-K/A, filed on January 9, 2015 with the SEC.

Based on the agreements entered by NOWnews and the Five Companies, if any news content provided by NOWnews violates any regulations or infringes on any copyrights, NOWnews shall be responsible for any losses that may occur.

Overview

We were incorporated as Forever Zen Ltd. on March 20, 2010 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On December 13, 2013, we changed our name to NOWnews Digital Media Technology Co Ltd. and planned to enter into the business of internet media and news content. Prior to the Share Exchange, we were a development stage company and had not yet realized any revenues from our planned operations.

As a result of the consummation of the Share Exchange on November 14, 2014, NOWnews became, indirectly through Worldwide and Sky Media, a majority-owned subsidiary of the Company and the business of NOWnews became the business of the Company. We are now, through NOWnews, engaged in creating, collecting and distributing news and information through our website http://www.nownews.com/ and our applications on mobile phones or tablets.

We generate revenue primarily from online advertising and marketing services and news content licensing. In addition, we historically had revenues from online product sales in the E-commerce business and editing services for customers. Since our editing service was not profitable, we ceased this service in December 2013. In addition, we also suspended our E-commerce business in April 2014 due to the continuous loss from this business.

Net Revenue

Our net revenue for the year 2014 was $2.93 million, a decrease of $0.3 million or 9% from $3.23 million for the year 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the decrease in licensing revenue and E-commerce revenue, partially offset by the increase in advertisement revenue.

Advertising

Our advertising avenue was $2.36 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $0.49 million, or 26%, from $1.87 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The increase was because we focus on the more profitable internet advertising and marketing.

Licensing

Our revenue from content licensing was $0.30 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $0.27 million, or 47%, from $0.57 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. In 2014, we did not license as much content to Yahoo Taiwan, Inc., our top customers for the past two years (“Yahoo Taiwan”) during the year 2014 due to low gross profit margin. In addition, we terminated our low-profit news editing services to Yahoo Taiwan. Such services were supplementary to our licensing arrangements with them.

E-Commerce

Our E-commerce revenue was $0.25 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $0.46 million, or 65%, from $0.71 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was primarily attributable to suspension of our E-Commerce business in April 2014 due to continuous losses. We are currently in the process of evaluating and adjusting this line of business.

Other

Other revenue includes revenue from film/video editing services and licensing copyrights to Chunghwa Wideband Best Network Co., Ltd. Other revenue was $0.02 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of $0.06 million, or 75%, from $0.08 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the termination of editing services and decrease in licensing copyrights charged to Chunghwa Wideband Best Network Co., Ltd.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue mainly consists of advertisement costs, content licensing costs, E-commerce costs, copyright costs, website maintenance costs, and labor costs.

Cost of revenue was $1.82 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $2.79 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $0.97 million, or 35%. The decrease was mainly due to a decrease of $0.48 million in cost of goods sold in E-commerce, a decrease in labor costs of $0.42 million due to the decrease in the number of employees in the year 2014 as a result of our efforts to reduce our operating costs and expenses.

Gross Profit

Gross profit increased approximately $0.67 million, an increase of 154% as compared to last year due to the substantial decrease in cost of revenue. Gross margin was 38% for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to 14% for the prior year.

Selling Expenses

Total selling expenses consist primarily of payroll, labor and health insurance, and advertisement expenses. The amount decreased by $0.39 million or 39% from $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $0.61 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in selling expenses was primarily due to the decrease in advertisement expenses related to E-commerce and the decrease in labor costs due to decrease in the number of salespersons.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses primarily consist of payroll, welfare, labor and health insurance, post-retirement benefits, office rent and management fees, depreciation & amortization expenses, professional services, litigation settlement payments, loss on film costs, and expenses for other general corporate activities. General and administrative expenses decreased by approximately $0.58 million or 29% from $1.96 million for the year ended December 31, 2013 to $1.38 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. The decrease in general and administration expenses was principally due to the decrease in payroll resulting from reduction in the number of employees.

Interest Expense

Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $25,103 compared to $25,267 for the year ended December 31, 2013, a decrease of $164, or 1%. The decrease in interest expense was primarily due to reduced bank loans incurred for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared with the year ended December 31, 2013. The loans were used for working capital and capital expenditures.

Net Loss

As a result of the above factors, we have net loss of approximately $0.70 million for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to net loss of approximately $1.71 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, representing a decrease of loss of approximately $1.01 million or approximately 59%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following summarizes the key component of our cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:

	December 31,			December 31,
	2014			2013
Net cash used in operating activities of continuing operations		(1,383,018	)		(1,475,963	)
Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations		(166	)		(186,276	)
Net cash provided by financing activities of continuing operations		1,136,537			1,922,301
Net cash (used in) provided by discontinued operations		(2,263	)		6,699
Effect of exchange rate change on cash and cash equivalents		(8,012	)		(1,425	)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents		(256,922	)		265,336

Net cash used in operating activities of continuing operations was approximately $1.38 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $1.48 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The decrease of $0.09 million was primarily due to the decrease in net loss.

Net cash used in investing activities of continuing operations was $166 for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to approximately $186,276 for the year ended December 31, 2013. The cash used in investing activities for 2013 was mainly for capital contribution to the establishment of Nownews International in August 2013 and the purchase of fixed and intangible assets in 2013.

Net cash provided by financing activities of continuing operations amounted to approximately $1.14 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, compared to approximately $1.92 million for the year ended December 31, 2013, representing a decrease of approximately $0.79 million. The decrease in net cash provided by financing activities was mainly due to decrease of $0.32 million in net proceeds from loans from related parties and decrease of $0.40 million in net proceeds from capital contributions.

There was no significant impact on our operations as a result of inflation for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

We believe that our current levels of cash, cash flows from operations, and bank/related party borrowings, will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. However, we may need additional cash resources in the future if we experience changed business conditions or other developments. We may also need additional cash resources in the future if we find and wish to pursue opportunities for investment, acquisition, strategic cooperation or other similar actions. If we ever determine that our cash requirements exceed our amounts of cash and cash equivalents on hand, we may seek to issue debt or equity securities or obtain a credit facility. Any future issuance of equity securities could cause dilution for our shareholders. Any incurrence of indebtedness could increase our debt service obligations and cause us to be subject to restrictive operating and financial covenants. It is possible that, when we need additional cash resources, financing will only be available to us in amounts or on terms that would not be acceptable to us, if at all.

Critical Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Since Worldwide and NOWnews were entities under common control prior to the restructuring transaction, Worldwide has recast prior period financial statements to reflect the conveyance of NOWnews to Sky Media as if the restructuring transaction had occurred as of January 1, 2013. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated.

The functional currency of NOWnews and NOWnews International is the New Taiwan dollars, however the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been translated and presented in United States Dollars ($). In the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes, “$”, “US$” and “U.S. dollars” mean United States dollars, and “NT$” and “NT dollars” mean New Taiwan dollars.

Use of estimates and assumptions:

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 consolidated financial statements and the amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made. However, actual results could differ materially from those results. The most significant estimates reflected in the consolidated financial statements include depreciation, useful lives of property and equipment, deferred income taxes, useful life of intangible assets and contingencies. Estimates and assumptions are periodically reviewed and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be necessary.

Cash and cash equivalents:

The Company considers all cash on hand and in banks, certificates of deposit and other highly-liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, when purchased, to be cash and cash equivalents. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company has uninsured deposits in banks of approximately $0 and $222,553, respectively.

Accounts receivable:

The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company assessed the allowance for doubtful accounts of $34,232 and $36,003, respectively.

Film costs:

In accordance with ASC 926, “Entertainment –Films” (“ASC 926”), Film Entertainment costs include capitalizable production costs, production overhead, interest, development costs and acquired production costs and are stated at the lower of cost, less accumulated amortization, or fair value. These costs, as well as participations and talent residuals, are recognized as operating expenses based on the ratio that gross revenues of the current period bear to management’s estimate of total ultimate gross revenues. Television production costs incurred in excess of the amount of revenue contracted for each episode in the initial market are expensed as incurred on an episode-by-episode basis. Estimates for initial syndication and basic cable revenues are not included in the estimated lifetime revenues of network series until such sales are probable. Television production costs incurred subsequent to the establishment of secondary markets are capitalized and amortized. Marketing costs and development costs under term deals are charged as operating expenses as incurred. Development costs for projects not produced are written-off at the earlier of the time the decision is made not to develop the story or after three years.

Costs of film and television productions are subject to regular recoverability assessments, which compare the estimated fair values with the unamortized costs. The Company bases these fair value measurements on the Company's assumptions about how market participants would price the asset at the balance sheet date, which may be different than the amounts ultimately realized in future periods. The amount by which the unamortized costs of film and television productions exceed their estimated fair values is written off.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company has incurred accumulated costs of film production in the amount of $134,321. The film has been completed but not released as of December 31, 2014. Because estimates of total revenues indicate that the film produced by the Company has a fair value that is less than its unamortized costs, management has assessed and recognized a loss on film costs of $134,321 during the year ended December 31, 2013. There was no additional film costs incurred as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Property and equipment:

Property and equipment are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation. Gains or losses on disposals are reflected as gain or loss in the year of disposal. The cost of improvements that extends the life of property, and equipment are capitalized. These capitalized costs may include structural improvements, equipment, and fixtures. All ordinary repair and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred.

Depreciation for financial reporting purposes is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or lease term as follows:

Electronic Equipment		3 years

Computer Equipment		3 to 5 years

Office Equipment and Furniture		3 to 5 years

Leasehold Improvement		Lesser of term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the assets

Long-lived assets:

The Company applies the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 360 (ASC 360), “Property, Plant, and Equipment” which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets to be held and used in accordance with ASC 360, at least on an annual basis. ASC 360 requires the impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair market values are reduced for the cost of disposal.

Intangible assets:

Intangible assets consist of software, trademark, and copyrights (see Note 6). At least annually, the Company evaluates intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are less than its carrying amount. Estimating future cash flows related to an intangible asset involves significant estimates and assumptions. If the Company’s assumptions are not correct, there could be an impairment loss or, in the case of a change in the estimated useful life of the asset, a change in amortization expense. There was no impairment of intangible assets as of and for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Revenue recognition:

Product and service revenue is recognized when the following fundamental criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or the service has been performed, (iii) the Company’s price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collection of the resulting accounts receivable is reasonably assured. Payments received before satisfaction of all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are recorded as unearned revenue. The Company recognizes revenue for product sales upon transfer of title to the customer. The Company recognizes revenue for services upon performance of the service. Customer purchase orders and/or contracts will generally be used to determine the existence of an arrangement. Shipping documents and the completion of any customer acceptance requirements, when applicable, will be used to verify product delivery or that services have been rendered. The Company will assess whether a price is fixed or determinable based upon the payment terms associated with the transaction and whether the sales price is subject to refund or adjustment. The Company will record reductions to revenue for estimated product returns and pricing adjustments in the same period that the related revenue is recorded. These estimates will be based on industry-based historical data, historical sales returns, if any, analysis of credit memo data, and other factors known at the time.

Post-retirement and post-employment benefits:

NOWnews adopted the government mandated defined contribution plan pursuant to the Labor Pension Act (the “Act”) in Taiwan. Such labor regulations require that the rate of contribution made by an employer to the Labor Pension Fund per month shall not be less than 6% of the worker's monthly salaries. Pursuant to the Act, NOWnews makes monthly contribution equal to 6% of employees’ salaries to the employees’ pension fund. NOWnews has no legal obligation for the benefits beyond the contributions made. The total amounts for such employee benefits, which were expensed as incurred, were $82,900 and $128,492 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Other than the above, the Company does not provide any other post-retirement or post-employment benefits.

Foreign currency translation:

The Company uses the United States dollar ("U.S. dollars") for financial reporting purposes. The Company maintains the books and records in its functional currency, being the primary currency of the economic environment in which its operations are conducted. For reporting purpose, the Company translates the assets and liabilities to U.S. dollars using the applicable exchange rates prevailing at the balance sheet dates, and the statements of income are translated at average exchange rates during the reporting periods. Gain or loss on foreign currency transactions are reflected on the income statement. Gain or loss on financial statement translation from foreign currency are recorded as a separate component in the equity section of the balance sheet and is included as part of accumulated other comprehensive income. The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries in Taiwan is New Taiwan Dollars.

Statement of cash flows:

In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 230, “Statement of Cash Flows,” cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies, and translated to the reporting currency using an average foreign exchange rate for the reporting period. As a result, amounts related to changes in assets and liabilities reported on the statement of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the balance sheets.

Income taxes:

Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The deferred income tax assets were $0 as of both December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The Company applied the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes”, which provides clarification related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our financial statements. Audit periods remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part, upon the results of operations for the given period. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, management considered that the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.

The Company is subject to the tax authority in Taiwan for years since incorporated.

Earnings per share (EPS):

Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260. Basic earnings per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock instruments were converted or exercised. Options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period if the average stock price for the period is greater than the exercise price of the warrants and options. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, no options or warrants were issued or outstanding.

Discontinued operations:

Results of the Company’s discontinued entity have been presented in discontinued operations in the financial statements. See Note 1 and Note 13 for additional information.

Reclassifications:

Certain classifications have been made to the prior year financial statements to conform to the current year presentation. . The reclassification had no impact on previously reported net loss or accumulated deficit.

Recent accounting pronouncements:

In February 18, 2015, FASB issued ASU 2015-02—Consolidation (Topic 810). The amendments in this Update affect reporting entities that are required to evaluate whether they should consolidate certain legal entities. All legal entities are subject to reevaluation under the revised consolidation model. Specifically, the amendments: (1) Modify the evaluation of whether limited partnerships and similar legal entities are variable interest entities (VIEs) or voting interest entities; (2) Eliminate the presumption that a general partner should consolidate a limited partnership; (3) Affect the consolidation analysis of reporting entities that are involved with VIEs, particularly those that have fee arrangements and related party relationships; (4) Provide a scope exception from consolidation guidance for reporting entities with interests in legal entities that are required to comply with or operate in accordance with requirements that are similar to those in Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 for registered money market funds. The amendments in this Update are effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-15 – Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40). The amendments in this Update states the disclosure of uncertainties about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. An entity’s management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). When management identifies conditions or events that raise substantial doubt, management should consider whether its plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. When substantial doubt is raised but is alleviated by management’s plans, the entity should disclose following information: (a) Principal conditions or events that raised substantial doubt (before consideration of management’s plans); (b) Management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations; (c) Management’s plans that alleviated the substantial doubt.

When substantial doubt is raised but is not alleviated by management’s plans,, an entity should include a statement in the footnotes indicating that there is substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued), and disclose the following information: (a) Principal conditions or events that raise substantial doubt; (b) Management’s evaluation of the significance of those conditions or events in relation to the entity’s ability to meet its obligations; (c) Management’s plans that are intended to mitigate the conditions or events that raise the substantial doubt.

The amendments in this Update are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is still in progress of evaluating future impact of adopting this standard.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve the core principle, an entity should apply the following steps:

Step 1: Identify the contract(s) with a customer.

Step 2: Identify the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 3: Determine the transaction price.

Step 4: Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

Step 5: Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation.

An entity should disclose sufficient information to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. For a public entity, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. Early application is not permitted. For all other entities (nonpublic entities), the amendments in this Update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. A nonpublic entity may elect to apply this guidance earlier. The Company has begun evaluating future impact of adopting this standard on the Company’s consolidated financial position and operating results.

In April 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360). The amendments in this Update change the requirements for reporting discontinued operations in Subtopic 205-20. A discontinued operation may include a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity, or a business or nonprofit activity. A disposal of a component of an entity or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s operations and financial results. The amendments in this Update require an entity to present, for each comparative period, the assets and liabilities of a disposal group that includes a discontinued operation separately in the asset and liability sections, respectively, of the statement of financial position. The amendments in this Update require a public business entity and a not-for-profit entity that has issued, or is a conduit bond obligor for, securities that are traded, listed, or quoted on an exchange or an over-the-counter market to provide disclosures about a disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. The amendments in this Update require all other entities to provide disclosures about a disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations presentation in the financial statements. The amendments in this Update expand the disclosures about an entity’s significant continuing involvement with a discontinued operation. Those disclosures are required until the results of operations of the discontinued operation in which an entity retains significant continuing involvement are no longer presented separately as discontinued operations in the statement where net income is reported (or statement of activities for a not-for-profit entity). The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In January 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-02, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Accounting for Goodwill. The amendments in this Update allow an accounting alternative for the subsequent measurement of goodwill. An entity within the scope of the amendments that elects the accounting alternative in this Update should amortize goodwill on a straight-line basis over 10 years, or less than 10 years if the entity demonstrates that another useful life is more appropriate. An entity that elects the accounting alternative is further required to make an accounting policy election to test goodwill for impairment at either the entity level or the reporting unit level. Goodwill should be tested for impairment when a triggering event occurs that indicates that the fair value of an entity (or a reporting unit) may be below its carrying amount. The disclosures required under this alternative are similar to existing U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, an entity that elects the accounting alternative is not required to present changes in goodwill in a tabular reconciliation. The accounting alternative, if elected, should be applied prospectively to goodwill existing as of the beginning of the period of adoption and new goodwill recognized in annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

In December 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-12, “Definition of a Public Business Entity”. The Board has decided that it should proactively determine which entities would be within the scope of the Private Company Decision-Making Framework: A Guide for Evaluating Financial Accounting and Reporting for Private Companies (Guide). This will aim to minimize the inconsistency and complexity of having multiple definitions of, or a diversity in practice as to what constitutes, a nonpublic entity and public entity within U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) on a going-forward basis. This Update addresses those issues by defining public business entity. The Accounting Standards Codification includes multiple definitions of the terms nonpublic entity and public entity. The amendment in this Update improves U.S. GAAP by providing a single definition of public business entity for use in future financial accounting and reporting guidance. The amendment does not affect existing requirements. There is no actual effective date for the amendment in this Update. However, the term public business entity will be used in Accounting Standards Updates which are the first Updates that will use the term public business entity. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

NOWnews Digital Media Technology Co. Ltd.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of NOWnews Digital Media Technology Co. Ltd. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, equity and cash flows for the years then ended. The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of NOWnews Digital Media Technology Co. Ltd. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred significant negative cash flows from operative activities, and continuing net losses and working capital deficits. The Company’s viability is dependent upon its ability to obtain future financing and the success of its future operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plan in regard to these matters is also described in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Worldwide is a holding company and has not carried out substantive business operations of its own. Mr. Alan Chen is the sole director and controlling beneficiary shareholder of Worldwide.

NOWnews Network Co., Ltd, (“NOWnews Network”) was incorporated in Taipei City, Taiwan on June 8, 2006. NOWnews Network is a media company with operations in Taiwan. NOWnews Network operates a news website and generates revenue from fees paid by advertisers in connection with the display of graphical and non-graphical advertisements. In addition, NOWnews Network provides editing services of news articles, pictures, and videos, and sells the broadcasting rights of its news articles, pictures, and videos.

Mr. Shu-sen Chang, the former Chairman and current director of NOWnews Network, and one other shareholder, own 10% and 35% of NOWnews International, respectively. The primary business of NOWnews International is to sell advertisement spaces in its own newspapers.

On December 27, 2013, the Board of Directors of NOWnews Network approved the termination of operations of NOWnews International. The results of NOWnews International have been presented as discontinued operations in the consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. NOWnews Network has reclassified the assets and liabilities of the discontinued entity in the accompanied consolidated financial statements.

During September through December 2013, Sky Media Investments, Co., Ltd. (“Sky Media”), a company incorporated in Anguilla and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, acquired 7,999,945 common shares (or 66.3%) of NOWnews Network from Mr. Alan Chen for $1,522,388 (or NT$45 million). Mr. Alan Chen owned 10,169,945 shares (or 84.3%) of common stock of NOWnews Network prior to the above transaction (the “Restructuring Transaction”).

On November 14, 2014, the Company entered into and closed a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”), with Worldwide, the shareholders of Worldwide, and NOWnews Network. Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement, (i) the Company issued an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Worldwide in exchange for all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Worldwide.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31st.

NOTE 2: GOING CONCERN

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant losses and has not demonstrated the ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations to satisfy its liabilities and sustain operations. The Company had accumulated deficits of $3,922,379 and $3,225,091, and stockholders’ deficits of $1,162,292 and $510,057 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The net losses attributable to common stockholders of $697,287 and $1,709,344 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In addition, current liabilities exceed current assets by $1,418,978 and $642,567 as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, representing significant working capital deficits. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company obtaining adequate capital to fund operating losses until it becomes profitable. If the Company is unable to obtain adequate capital, it could be forced to cease operations. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

NOWNEWS DIGITAL MEDIA TECHNOLOGY CO. LTD. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Management’s Plan to Continue as a Going Concern

In order to continue as a going concern, the Company will need, among other things, additional capital resources. Management’s plans to obtain such resources for the Company include (1) obtaining capital from the sale of its equity securities, (2) sales of the Company’s services, (3) short-term and long-term borrowings from banks, and (4) short-term borrowings from stockholders or other related party(ies) when needed. However, management cannot provide any assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing any of its plans.

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon its ability to successfully accomplish the plans described in the preceding paragraph and eventually to secure other sources of financing and attain profitable operations.

NOTE 3: BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which the net operating losses and temporary differences become deductible. Management considered projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company accrued 100% valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets based on the assessment of the probability of future realization.

NOTE 10: STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

As of December 31, 2014 the Company was authorized to issue a total of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share.

On June 4, 2013, Worldwide issued 17,000,000 common shares to Mr. Alan Chen as founder’s shares for no consideration exchanged. As a result, a discount on capital of $17,000,000 was recorded. On the same date, Mr. Chen conveyed 1,000,000 shares, 8,548,000 shares, 3,816,000 shares, and 3,636,000 shares to Legend Media Investments Co., Ltd., Pioneer Media Investments Co., Ltd., Intelligent Media Investments Co., Ltd., and Core Winner Investment Limited, respectively (collectively, the “Recipients”). All of the recipients are entities under Mr. Chen’s common control. During the year 2014, Mr. Chen transferred 2,847,725, 410,000, and 11,687,600 shares to Ms. Chiu-li Tu, the Company’s employees, and other non-related parties, respectively. Mr. Chen and Ms. Tu are husband and wife (see Note 14). Prior to November 14, 2014, Mr. Chen holds 2,054,675 shares of Worldwide.

On September 16, 2013, Worldwide entered into a written Definitive Agreement with GIA Investments Corp. (“GIA”), an unrelated party (the “Definitive Agreement”). Pursuant to the provisions of the Definitive Agreement, Worldwide would acquire NOWnews Network pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, and Worldwide will fund the operations of NOWnews Network for a period of approximately 8 months. Additionally, Worldwide desires to be acquired by an unidentified company (defined in the Definitive Agreement as “Company A”), pursuant to a stock exchange agreement, and Company A will be a participant in the OTCQB. As specified in the Definitive Agreement, GIA intends to acquire 15% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company A’s common stock for $3,000,000, and Worldwide intends that its existing shareholders will acquire 84% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company A’s common stock.

Mr. Alan Chen owned 10,169,945 shares (or 84.3%) of common stock of NOWnews Network prior to the above transaction. Since Worldwide and NOWnews Network were both entities under Mr. Chen’s common control prior to the transaction, it was deemed a restructuring transaction (the “Restructuring Transaction”) and the $1,522,388 disbursed from Sky Media to Mr. Chen was recorded as a return of capital.

Pursuant to the Share Exchange Agreement entered on November 14, 2014 (see Note 1), the Company issued an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of common stock to the shareholders of Worldwide in exchange for all the issued and outstanding capital stock of Worldwide.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

None.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that this information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation with the participation of the Company’s management, including Yih-Jong Shy, the Company’s chief executive officer, and Tsung-Chien Chiang, the Company’s chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over our financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act. The Company’s management is also required to assess and report on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“Section 404”). Internal control over financial reporting is a process to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the Company’s financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Internal control over financial reporting includes policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the Company’s transactions; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of the Company’s financial statements and that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate.

The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, it used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework. This evaluation was conducted by Yih-Jong Shy, the Company’s chief executive officer, and Tsung-Chien Chiang, the Company’s chief financial officer. Based on our evaluation, we determined that, as of December 31, 2014, our internal control over financial reporting was effective.

This Annual Report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. The management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on Controls

Management does not expect that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures or the Company's internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based upon certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. The Company's disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective at that reasonable assurance level.

Item 9B. Other Information.

None.

Material Changes to the Procedures by which Security Holders May Recommend Nominees to the Board of Directors

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Board of Directors.

Code of Ethics

As of the date of this report, we had not adopted a Code of Ethics for Financial Executives, which would include our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. We plan to adopt a code of ethics as we develop our business.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Since November 14, 2014, we have separated the roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer. Although the separation of roles has been appropriate for us during that time period, in the view of the board of directors, the advisability of the separation of these roles depends upon the specific circumstances and dynamics of our leadership.

As Chairman of the Board, Mr. Chen serves as the primary liaison between the CEO and the Board and provides strategic input and counseling to the CEO. With input from other members of the board of directors and management, he presides over meetings of the board of directors. Mr. Chen has developed an extensive knowledge of our company, its challenges and opportunities and has a productive working relationship with our senior management team.

The board of directors, as a unified body and through committee participation, organizes the execution of its monitoring and oversight roles and does not expect its Chairman to organize those functions. Our primary rationale for separating the positions of Board Chairman and the CEO is the recognition of the time commitments and activities required to function effectively as Chairman and as the CEO of a company with a relatively flat management structure. The separation of roles has also permitted the board of directors to recruit senior executives into the CEO position with skills and experience that meet the board of director’s planning for the position who may not have extensive public company board experience.

Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the company faces, while the board of directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the board of directors has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed.

The board of directors believes that establishing the right “tone at the top” and that full and open communication between executive management and the board of directors are essential for effective risk management and oversight. Our CEO communicates frequently with members of the board to discuss strategy and challenges facing the company.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

As of the date of this report, we are not subject to Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
