DigitalTown, Inc.


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)



Note 1. Basis of Presentation


The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial information has been prepared by DigitalTown, Inc. (the “Company”) in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S.”) (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).  Accordingly, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement of this financial information have been included.  Financial results for the interim period presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole or any other interim period.  This financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2015.


Note 2. Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:


Nature of Business and Going Concern


The Company was founded in 1982 under the laws of the State of Minnesota as Command Small Computer Learning Center, Inc., a computer training company and operated under several different names in the computer hardware and training sector. In 2005, the Company began acquiring domain names.  On March 1, 2007, the Company changed its name to DigitalTown, Inc. and began developing a business plan to develop a platform to monetize their domain names.  The Company’s headquarters are located at 11974 Portland Avenue, Burnsville, MN 55337, and its telephone and facsimile numbers are (952) 890-2362 and (952) 890-7451, respectively.  The Company's Internet address is www.digitaltown.com.  The Company’s common stock is traded in the over-the-counter market under the ticker DGTW.


The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared using U.S. GAAP applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.  The Company has a working capital deficit, recurring losses, and negative cash flows from operations. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  










At May 31, 2015, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $29,613,636.  Subsequent to May 31, 2015, the Company has not received any proceeds from the sale of its common stock. The Company anticipates that expected future proceeds from additional financing through the sale of its common stock or other equity-based securities, and additional sales and/or leases of existing domain names will be sufficient to meet its working capital and capital expenditure needs through at least May 31, 2016.  In the event that the Company is unable to obtain additional capital in the future, the Company would be forced to further reduce operating expenses and/or cease operations altogether.


Principles of Consolidation


The Company files consolidated financial statements that include its wholly-owned subsidiaries Tiger Media and The School Network, Inc.  All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Reclassifications  


Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated statement of cash flows have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Proceeds from related party notes payable received in the prior period have been reclassified from the prior period classification.


Use of Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Accounts Receivable


Accounts receivable arose from the sale of and commission earned from display advertising.  The Company evaluates collectability of accounts receivable based on a combination of factors including the age of the receivable or a specific customer’s inability to meet its financial conditions.  In these circumstances, the Company records an allowance to reduce the receivable to an amount it deems collectible.  The Company has determined that an allowance for doubtful accounts is not necessary as of May 31, 2015.


Prepaid Domain Names


The annual domain name renewal fees are currently being amortized over one year.


The increase in prepaid domain name renewal fees as of May 31, 2015 compared to February 28, 2015 is due to the large number of domain name renewals that come due during the quarter ended May 31 as compared to the other quarters of the year.



Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue when the following four criteria have been met:

·

Persuasive evidence that an agreement exists

·

Delivery has occurred

·

The price is fixed and determinable

·

Collectability is reasonably assured


The Company recognizes revenue from certain third party agreements which allow display advertising to be placed on individual spirit sites within DigitalTown’s network.  Per these agreements, the Company receives commissions based on a percentage of the per click or per-impression revenue generated by these ads.  The Company recognizes these commissions received as revenue.


Income Taxes


Deferred tax assets (net of any valuation allowance) and liabilities resulting from temporary differences, net operating loss carryforwards and tax credit carryforwards are recorded using an asset-and-liability method.  Deferred taxes relating to temporary differences and loss carryforwards are measured using the tax rate expected to be in effect when they are reversed or are realized.  Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be ultimately realized.  The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset due to the uncertainty of realizing the related future benefits.

 

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance.  This guidance prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return.  For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities.  The Company’s adoption of these provisions specifically related to uncertain tax positions resulted in no cumulative effect adjustment.  The Company believes its income tax filing positions and deductions will be sustained upon examination and, accordingly, no reserves or related accruals for interest and penalties have been recorded at May 31, 2015 or February 28, 2015.  In accordance with the guidance, the Company has adopted a policy under which, if required to be recognized in the future, interest related to the underpayment of income taxes will be classified as a component of interest expense and any related penalties will be classified in operating expenses in the statements of operations.  The Company has three open years of tax returns subject to examination.


Stock-Based Compensation, Including Options and Warrants


The Company recognizes the cost of stock-based compensation plans and awards in operations on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period of the awards.  The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees, directors, consultants and advisors. The compensation expense for the Company's stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of the grant.


The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This option pricing model involves a number of assumptions, including the expected lives of stock options, the volatility of the public market price for the Company's common stock and interest rates. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.


Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-12, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period. The new guidance requires that share-based compensation that require a specific performance target to be achieved in order for employees to become eligible to vest in the awards and that could be achieved after an employee completes the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. As such, the performance target should not be reflected in estimating the grant-date fair value of the award. Compensation costs should be recognized in the period in which it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved and should represent the compensation cost attributable to the period(s) for which the requisite service has already been rendered. If the performance target becomes probable of being achieved before the end of the requisite service period, the remaining unrecognized compensation cost should be recognized prospectively over the remaining requisite service period. The total amount of compensation cost recognized during and after the requisite service period should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. The requisite service period ends when the employee can cease rendering service and still be eligible to vest in the award if the performance target is achieved. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. Entities may apply the amendments in this Update either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. The adoption of ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10: Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation, to improve financial reporting by reducing the cost and complexity associated with the incremental reporting requirements of development stage entities. The amendments in this update remove all incremental financial reporting requirements from U.S. GAAP for development stage entities, thereby improving financial reporting by eliminating the cost and complexity associated with providing that information. The amendments in this Update also eliminate an exception provided to development stage entities in Topic 810, Consolidation, for determining whether an entity is a variable interest entity on the basis of the amount of investment equity that is at risk. The amendments to eliminate that exception simplify U.S. GAAP by reducing avoidable complexity in existing accounting literature and improve the relevance of information provided to financial statement users by requiring the application of the same consolidation guidance by all reporting entities. The elimination of the exception may change the consolidation analysis, consolidation decision, and disclosure requirements for a reporting entity that has an interest in an entity in the development stage. The amendments related to the elimination of inception-to-date information and the other remaining disclosure requirements of Topic 915 should be applied retrospectively except for the clarification to Topic 275, which shall be applied prospectively. For public companies, those amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2014-10 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Note 3. Deferred Officer Compensation


Richard Pomije, the former CEO, CFO and Chairman of the Company has elected to forego a portion of his salary at various times due to the Company’s limited operating funds. These amounts do not accrue interest and are due and payable as funds become available in the future. During the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Company recorded $25,807 of deferred officer compensation and made payments of $46,250 to Richard Pomije. The total balance recorded as deferred officer compensation at May 31, 2015 and February 28, 2015, was $0 and $352,292, respectively. On May 11, 2015, Mr. Pomije agreed to accept the stock subscriptions receivable in lieu of his deferred officer accrued compensation. The total balance recorded as deferred officer compensation at May 11, 2015 (date of agreement), was $331,849. As a result of the difference between the amount recorded for stock subscriptions receivable and deferred officer compensation, the Company recorded a loss on conversion of deferred officer compensation into equity of $293,633 in May 2015. See Notes 8 and 11 for further information.


Note 4. Stockholders’ Equity


Stock Transactions


During the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Company entered into stock purchase agreements and issued 2,467,000 restricted common shares at $0.25 per share, for total cash proceeds of $616,750.  The restricted common shares were valued based at the market price on the grant date. In addition, 41,000 restricted common shares were issued during this period related to the $11,500 of proceeds received and recorded as stock payable as of February 28, 2015 as the shares had not yet been issued as of February 28, 2015.  See the following two paragraphs for further information related to the $11,500 stock payable balance as of February 28, 2015.


During the three months ended February 28, 2015, the Company entered into stock purchase agreements at $0.25 per share for total cash proceeds of $9,000 for which the 36,000 restricted common shares were not issued as of February 28, 2015. The $9,000 was included in the stock payable balance of $11,500 as of February 28, 2015 and was shown as issued stock when the shares were issued during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 ended May 31, 2015.


On May 6, 2014, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement and issued 5,000 restricted common shares at $0.50 per share, for total cash proceeds of $2,500. The restricted common shares were valued based at the market price on the grant date.  The stockholder purchased 10,000 shares for $5,000 but the transfer agent only issued 5,000 shares (in February 2015).  The other $2,500 received on May 6, 2014 was recorded as stock payable as of February 28, 2015 and was shown as issued stock when the shares were issued during the first quarter of fiscal 2016 ended May 31, 2015.  


On April 25, 2014, the Company entered into a stock purchase agreement and issued 10,000 restricted common shares at $0.50 per share, for total cash proceeds of $5,000. The restricted common shares were valued based at the market price on the grant date.


Stock Warrants


As of May 31, 2015, the Company had 2,225,000 warrants outstanding with an average exercise price of $0.25.  The warrants expire five-ten years from their date of issue and have a weighted average remaining exercise period as of May 31, 2015 of 9.18 years.


On April 3, 2015, one consultant was issued 300,000 warrants as compensation to purchase shares of the Company stock at the closing price as of April 2, 2015 of $0.15 per share.  The warrants vested immediately and are exercisable until April 3, 2025. The total estimated value using the Black-Scholes Model, based on a volatility rate of 122% and a call option value of $0.14 was $42,808.


On May 5, 2015, Jeffrey Mills, a Director, was issued 200,000 warrants as compensation to purchase shares of the Company stock at the closing price as of May 4, 2015 of $0.25 per share.  The warrants vested immediately and are exercisable until May 5, 2025. The total estimated value using the Black-Scholes Model, based on a volatility rate of 125% and a call option value of $0.24 was $47,817.


On May 5, 2015, one consultant was issued 200,000 warrants as compensation to purchase shares of the Company stock at the closing price as of May 4, 2015 of $0.25 per share.  The warrants vested immediately and are exercisable until May 5, 2025. The total estimated value using the Black-Scholes Model, based on a volatility rate of 125% and a call option value of $0.24 was $47,817.


On May 5, 2015, one consultant was issued 50,000 warrants as compensation to purchase shares of the Company stock at the closing price as of May 4, 2015 of $0.25 per share.  The warrants vested immediately and are exercisable until May 5, 2025. The total estimated value using the Black-Scholes Model, based on a volatility rate of 125% and a call option value of $0.24 was $11,954.


On May 5, 2015, Darvin Habben, Chairman of the Board, was issued 400,000 warrants as compensation to purchase shares of the Company stock at the closing price as of May 4, 2015 of $0.25 per share.  The warrants vested immediately and are exercisable until May 5, 2025. The total estimated value using the Black-Scholes Model, based on a volatility rate of 125% and a call option value of $0.24 was $95,634.


On April 21, 2014, the Company canceled 300,000 stock purchase warrants issued to four consultants on January 10, 2014.    


The Company utilized the following key assumptions in computing the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes pricing model:

The Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $246,030 and $0 for all outstanding stock warrants for the three months ended May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.  This expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense.


Note 5. Stock Options


The Company has one stock option plan called The 2006 Employee Stock and Option Plan. As of May 31, 2015, an aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of common stock may be granted under this plan as determined by the Board of Directors. The stock options may be granted to officers and employees of the Company.  Options granted under this plan are non-qualified stock options and have exercise prices and vesting terms established by the Board of Directors at the time of each grant.  Vesting terms of the outstanding options range from immediate to four years from the date of grant.  The terms of the options range from five to ten years from the date of grant.


For the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Company granted 500,000 options to three employees with a term of 10 years and the options vested on the grant date of May 5, 2015. The fair value of the Company’s stock options have been estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, which requires assumptions as to expected dividends, the option’s expected life, volatility and risk-free interest rate at the time of the grant.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.


For stock options granted during the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Company utilized the following key assumptions in computing fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model:

The total fair value of the stock options granted by the Company for the three months ended May 31, 2015 was $105,343.


For the three months ended May 31, 2014, the Company granted 25,000 options to an employee with a term of 10 years and the options vested on the grant date of March 18, 2014. The fair value of the Company’s stock options have been estimated using the Black-Scholes pricing model, which requires assumptions as to expected dividends, the option’s expected life, volatility and risk-free interest rate at the time of the grant.  The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting periods in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

The total fair value of the stock options granted by the Company for the three months ended May 31, 2014 was $9,857.


Total stock compensation expense for all option grants was $105,343 and $59,417 for the three months ended May 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. This expense is included in selling, general and administrative expense. As of May 31, 2015, the Company has not recorded any tax benefit from this non-cash expense due to the Company having a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.  The compensation expense impacted the three months ended May 31, 2015 and 2014 basic earnings per common share by $(0.003) and $(0.002), respectively.  As of May 31, 2015, there was no remaining unrecognized compensation expense to be recognized over future periods.

Note 9. Earnings (Loss) Per Share


The Company computes earnings per share using two different methods, basic and diluted, and presents per share data for all periods in which statements of operations are presented. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock equivalents outstanding.


The following tables provide a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in calculating basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three month periods ended May 31, 2015 and 2014:

Company Overview  


GENERAL


DigitalTown, Inc. (DigitalTown or the Company) owns and operates a nationwide network of hyper-local online communities.  The Company’s emphasis is on the development of a network of high school sports websites.


The Company’s core asset is a portfolio of 21,547 domains matching the largest high schools in the United States.  The portfolio corresponds to a standard pattern of school and mascot names, e.g., from AbbevilleGenerals.com to ZwolleHawks.com.


The Company aims to create and operate the leading direct to consumer online media network for high school sports.


Market Opportunity


In the U.S., sports media is a large business with professional sports leading the way.  According to Forbes’ 2015 report, Major League Baseball (MLB) teams have risen to a record valuation of $36 billion while the National Football League (NFL) teams have risen to a value of $45 billion. National Basketball Association (NBA), National Hockey League (NHL), Major League Soccer (MLS) and other leagues are further examples of the business of professional sports.


By the same token, college sports, which produce vastly more sporting events per year relative to professional sports, have also become a large business. In 2012, ESPN agreed to a $7.3 billion contract to televise college football playoffs, validating the large and growing value of college sports. While the true value of college sports franchises has not been appraised, it is conceivable that due to the large number of college sports franchises, the total value of the college sports franchises may even exceed that of the professional leagues.


Unlike professional leagues and college leagues, high school sports remain relatively undeveloped both as media assets and as brands. The number of high school sports participants far exceeds the number of participants in college sports with many high school athletes growing to national prominence even in the absence of regular mainstream sports media coverage.


According to the National High School Center, the number of enrolled high school students in the U.S. is 14.3 million. According to the National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS) in their most recent report, 7.6 million students participate in organized athletics in U.S. schools. 18,150 schools have a boy’s basketball team. Football has the most participants among all high school sports, with more than 1.1 million students playing at 14,000 schools.


A primary barrier to the development of a national media network for high school sports has been access to broadcast-worthy content. While reporting of high school sports statistics has matured, delivery of video and audio is virtually undeveloped broadcasting beyond state championship football. The emergence of mobile data networks and high quality Internet-enabled video cameras has dramatically simplified the ease with which content can be captured and disseminated for broadcast distribution, both streamed as a live event as well as for archival access. DigitalTown aims to be among the first to capitalize on this opportunity.


The monetization of these sports portals is expected to be comprised of (1) advertising and sponsorship sales, (2) merchandise sales, (3) sale of vanity email addresses that use the high school domain name, (4) revenue share from processing of transactions such as ticket sales, and (5) premium fees for access to high definition live stream of events.


Sales of local advertising and sponsorships represent the largest immediate sales opportunity.  According to the National Retail Federation, there are more than 3.7 million retail businesses in the U.S. alone. The vast majority of these businesses are believed to operate within a five-mile radius of a high school. These businesses are natural advertisers for local sports media and are increasingly sophisticated in their use of online advertising products.


High schools are traditionally unsophisticated in their approach to selling sponsorships and advertising, traditionally relying on some combination of students, coaches and booster clubs to solicit local sponsors with little in the way of formal methods for salesforce management, yield optimization or reporting of advertising effectiveness.


As the DigitalTown audience network grows, it is expected that we will be able to appeal to national sponsors either through direct sales as well as through partnerships with national advertising partners catering to sports media audiences. One unique advantage of the DigitalTown network is the ability to provide hyper-local targeting, e.g., a national pizza chain with a national campaign through DigitalTown can display a local phone number for ordering on each website.


The network of online sports portals currently under development at DigitalTown is scheduled to be in operation during calendar Q3 2015 in time for the 2015-16 academic year.


Intellectual Property


Domain Name Portfolio: The Company’s primary intellectual property asset is a portfolio of 21,547 active domain name registrations. Of these, 21,523 are of the prestigious .COM domains and are rendered without hyphens, thereby making them the “high ground” from a branding perspective among the range of domains that could be conceivably registered either by the school itself or by a would-be imitator of the Company’s business model. The median registration age of the domain portfolio is more than nine years old, a key signal to search engines of a website’s trustworthiness.


Software: The Company is developing a proprietary platform for managing the sports media network, including the network of sports sites, a master website, and back office management tools. The Company continues to invest heavily in software but will do so with an emphasis on capital efficiency and return on investment.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


THREE MONTHS ENDED MAY 31, 2015 AND 2014


During the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Company recorded revenues of $583 and cost of revenues of $39,534 for a negative gross profit of $(38,951) compared to revenues of $200 and cost of revenues of $45,623 for a negative gross profit of $(45,423), for the same period in 2014.  For the three months ended May 31, 2015, revenue mainly consisted of commissions generated from advertising on our websites of $58 and domain name lease revenue of $525.  For the comparable period, revenue consisted of commissions generated from advertising on our websites.  Cost of revenue consisted of amortization of prepaid annual domain name renewal fees of $39,524 for 2015 compared to $45,613 for 2014 and server/bandwidth expense of $10 for both 2015 and 2014.


Selling, general and administrative expenses for the current three months increased by $299,787 to $434,654 compared to a year ago.  Stock-based compensation expense, included in selling, general and administration expenses, was $351,373 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, compared to $59,417 for the three months ended May 31, 2014, an increase of $291,956, compared to a year ago.  Excluding non-cash stock compensation expense for the two comparable periods, selling, general, and administrative expenses were $83,281 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, compared to $75,450 for the three months ended May 31, 2014.  The increase of $7,831 was primarily due to an increase in salary expense of $14,143 partially offset by a decrease in rent expense of $6,808.  The Company’s overall net loss for the current three months increased by $560,102 to $740,339.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Monthly cash operating expenses for the three months ended May 31, 2015, were approximately $40,000 per month.  Based on current projections, the Company’s monthly cash operating expenses going forward should be approximately $62,000 per month which includes the monthly cost for the renewal of the existing domain names of approximately $16,000. In addition to the normal monthly operating expenses, the Company’s committed cash requirements for the 12 months ending May 31, 2016 include the balance due of $30,000 for expenses pertaining to the Company’s Strategic Partnership Agreement with the NIAAA and $22,500 pertaining to a software development maintenance agreement. From June 1, 2015 to July 13, 2015, the Company did not receive any cash proceeds from the sale of its common stock.  


Prior to May 11, 2015, the Company had the 2007 and 2010 stock subscription agreements outstanding.  See Notes 8 and 11 to the current period’s consolidated financial statements for further information.


For the three months ended May 31, 2015, the Company did not receive any stock subscription payments and prior to May 11, 2015, the Company had related party stock subscriptions receivable aggregating $625,482 for the 2007 and 2010 agreements which have since been settled against deferred officer compensation.


In summary, we believe our current cash reserves, future proceeds from the issuance of our common stock and proceeds from the sale and/or lease of current domain names should be sufficient to enable us to operate for the next 12 months.  In the event that we are unable to raise additional capital through the sale of our common stock or sell and/or lease additional domain names on acceptable terms, we would be forced to reduce operating expenses and/or cease operations altogether.


Critical Accounting Policies


The discussion and analysis of DigitalTown, Inc.’s financial condition and results of operations are based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  Management reviews its estimates on an ongoing basis.  Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  While DigitalTown Inc.’s significant accounting policies are described in more detail in Note 2 to its consolidated financial statements, management believes the following accounting policies to be critical to the judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its financial statements:


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company recognizes the cost of stock-based compensation plans and awards in operations on a straight-line basis over the respective vesting period of the awards.  The Company measures and recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payment awards made to employees, directors, consultants and advisors. The compensation expense for the Company's stock-based payments is based on estimated fair values at the time of the grant.


The Company estimates the fair value of stock-based payment awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. This option pricing model involves a number of assumptions, including the expected lives of stock options, the volatility of the public market price for the Company's common stock and interest rates. Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that are ultimately expected to vest.



Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

Information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements is included in Note 2 to the current period’s consolidated financial statements.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION


Any statements contained herein related to future events are forward-looking statements.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.  DigitalTown, Inc. undertakes no obligation to update any such statements to reflect actual events.


ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK


The Company has not entered into, and does not expect to enter into, financial instruments for trading or hedging purposes.  The Company does not currently anticipate entering into interest rate swap and/or similar instruments.  Our primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is to changes in interest rates, which would only impact interest income earned on such instruments.  As of May 31, 2015, the Company did not have any material currency exchange or interest rate risk exposure.


ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.


Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness, as of May 31, 2015, of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13(a)-13(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”).  The purpose of this evaluation was to determine whether as of the evaluation date our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that the information we are required to disclose in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC”), under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  Based on their evaluation, our management has concluded, as previously discussed in Item 9A of our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2015, that material weaknesses continue to exist in our internal control over financial reporting as of May 31, 2015, and as a result our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.  Notwithstanding the material weaknesses that continue to exist as of May 31, 2015, our Chief Executive Officer has concluded that the financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”).


 (b) Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting.

Management continues to evaluate the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting to ensure that the design and implementation of corrective procedures are adequate to remediate the previously identified material weaknesses from our Form 10-K at February 28, 2015.  Due to the small number of employees dealing with general administrative and financial matters and the expenses associated with increases to remediate the disclosure controls and procedures that have been identified, the Company continued to operate without changes to its internal controls over financial reporting for the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q while continuing to evaluate and improve to remediate the material weaknesses at an appropriate cost benefit basis.

During the fiscal quarter ended May 31, 2015, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
