Item 4.02. Non-Reliance on Previously Issued Financial Statements or a Related Audit Report or Completed Interim Review.
On May 29, 2015, Next 1 Interactive Inc.’s (the “Company”) management determined that the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of and for the quarter ended November 30, 2014, should be restated, and should no longer be relied upon.
The restatement resulted from a re-examination of the Company’s ownership interest in Realbiz Media Group, Inc. (“Realbiz”). Such re-examination resulted in the finding and conclusion that although the composition of the board of directors of each of the Company and Realbiz were substantially the same, the Company no longer had control over the operating and financial policies of Realbiz due to the Company’s decreased ownership interest in Realbiz. The Company has been deemed to no longer have controlling interest in its consolidated subsidiary during the third quarter ending November 30, 2014 and is required to deconsolidate as of that time requiring an amendment to, and restatement of, the consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, financial results of Realbiz that had been consolidated with the financial results of the Company, should be deconsolidated. After November 30, 2014, the Company is a standalone company focused solely on media and marketing of travel, membership programs and employment but still maintaining a non-controlling investment in Realbiz. Realbiz, the former consolidated subsidiary, is now a standalone company focused exclusively on technology solutions for the real estate industry. When the Company originally made its majority controlled investment in Realbiz in October 2012, it was its intention to reduce its investment to the level that the two companies would deconsolidate. Once completed the restated financials statements will reflect only the operations from the Company as opposed to the current combined operations.
Management discussed the matters disclosed in this Current Report on Form 8-K with the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm.
