Duo World Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

September 30, 2018

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 - Organization and Nature of Operations

 

Duo World Inc. (hereinafter referred to as “Successor” or “Duo”) a reporting company since September 26, 2016, was organized under the laws of the state of Nevada on September 19, 2014.

Duo Software (Pte.) Limited (hereinafter referred to as “DSS” or “Predecessor”), a Singapore based company, was incorporated on June 5, 2007 in the Republic of Singapore as a limited liability company. DSS also includes its wholly-owned subsidiary, Duo Software India (Private) Limited (India), which was incorporated on August 30, 2007, under the laws of India.

 

On December 3, 2014, Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (DSSL) and Duo Software Pte. Limited (DSS) executed a reverse recapitalization with Duo World Inc. (Duo). See Note 4. Duo (Successor) is a holding company that conducts operations through its wholly owned subsidiaries, DSSL and DSS (Predecessors), in Sri Lanka, Singapore and India. The consolidated entity is referred to as the “Company.” The Company, having its development center in Colombo, has been in the space of developing products and services for customer service experience and life cycle management industry. The Company’s applications (“Duo Subscribe,” “Facetone,” and “Smoothflow”) provide solutions in the space of Subscriber management and billing, Customer Life Cycle Management, and Work Flow & Customer Service.

 

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and disclosures necessary for a comprehensive presentation of consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. It is management’s opinion, however, that all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) have been made which are necessary for a fair consolidated financial statements presentation.

 

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report, which contains the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, together with the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, for the year ended March 31, 2018. The interim results for the period ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of results for the full fiscal year.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recovery of the recorded assets or the classification of the liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had a net loss of $206,588 and $916,370 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2018 respectively, net cash provided by operations of $(104,704) and $147,845 in six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 respectively, a working capital deficit of $2,242,701 and $1,428,411 as of September 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 respectively, outstanding statutory dues towards employee provident fund and employee trust fund of $407,535 and $388,630 as of September 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018 respectively and a stockholders´ deficit of $2,934,151 and $2,164,333 as of September 30, 2018 and March 31.2018 respectively.

 

 F-6 
 

 

Furthermore, the Company has entered into significant contracts with the clients for the products launched, and the management is confident that these projects shall generate sufficient revenues to offset the operating losses in the recent future.

 

Note 3 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts and transactions of DSSL and DSS (Predecessors) and Duo (Successor). Duo World Inc. is the parent company of its 100% subsidiaries Duo Software (Pvt.) Limited (DSSL) and Duo Software Pte. Limited (DSS). Duo Software Pte. Limited is the parent company of its 100% subsidiary Duo Software India (Private) Limited (India). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Making estimates and assumptions requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near term due to one or more future non-confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions. The most significant estimates relate to the timing and amounts of revenue recognition, the recognition and disclosure of contingent liabilities and the collectability of accounts receivable.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations are subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, competition and potential risk of business failure. Product revenues are concentrated in the application software industry, which is highly competitive and rapidly changing. Significant technological changes in the industry or customer requirements, or the emergence of competitive products with new capabilities or technologies could adversely affect operating results.

 

Concentrations of Credit Risk

 

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. The Company maintains cash and cash equivalents with various high quality financial institutions and we monitor the credit ratings of those institutions. The Company’s sales are primarily to the companies located in Sri Lanka, Singapore Indonesia and India. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of our customers, and the risk with respect to trade receivables is further mitigated by the diversity, both by geography and by industry, of the customer base. Accounts receivable are due principally from the companies understated contract terms.

 

 F-7 
 

 

Provisions

 

A provision is recognized when the company has present obligations because of past event, it is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and reliable estimate can be made of amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted at their present value and are determined based on the best estimate required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

 

Accounts Receivable and Provision for Doubtful Accounts

 

The Company recognizes accounts receivable in connection with the products sold and services provided and have strong policies and procedures for the collection receivables from its clients. However, there are inevitably occasions when the receivables due to the Company cannot be collected and, therefore, have to be written off as bad debts. While the debt collection process is being pursued, an assessment is made of the likelihood of the receivable being collectable. A provision is therefore, made against the outstanding receivable to reflect that component that may not become collectable. The Company is in the practice of provisioning for doubtful debts based on the period outstanding as per the following:

 

Trade receivables outstanding:   Provision
Over 24 months   100%
Over 18 months   50%
Over 15 months   25%
Over 12 months   10%
Over 9 months   5%

 

Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of September 30, 2018 and March 31, 2018, there were no cash equivalents.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currencies of the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are their local currencies. For financial reporting purposes, these currencies have been translated into United States Dollars ($) and/or USD as the reporting currency. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign functional currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate on the balance sheet date and equity balances are translated at historical rates. Revenues, costs and expenses in foreign functional currencies are translated at the average rate of exchange during the period. Translation adjustments arising from the use of different exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of shareholders’ deficit as “accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).” Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive income /(loss) as other income (expense).

 

 F-8 
 

 

Property and Equipment

 

Fixed assets (including leasehold improvements) are stated at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated salvage value is considered as NIL. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated benefit period of the related assets, which may not exceed 15 years, or the lease term, if shorter. Repairs and maintenance expenditures, which are not considered improvements and do not extend the useful life of the property and equipment, are expensed as incurred. In case of sale or disposal of an asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the consolidated financial statements.

 

Useful lives of the fixed assets are as follows:

 

Furniture & Fittings 5 years
Improvements to lease hold assets Lease term
Office equipment 5 years
Computer equipment (Data Processing Equipment) 3 years
Website development 4 years

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company reviews long-lived assets, such as property, plant, and equipment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized by the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of by sale would be separately presented in the balance sheet and reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell, and are no longer depreciated. The assets and liabilities of a group classified as held for sale would be presented separately in the appropriate asset and liability sections of the balance sheet.

 

Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company measures assets and liabilities at fair value based on an expected exit price as defined by the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements, which represents the amount that would be received on the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability, as the case may be, in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value may be based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

 

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

 F-9 
 

 

 

Post Retirement Benefit Plan

 

The company has gratuity as it post-employment plan for all the eligible employees. The recognition for the gratuity plan is as below:-

 

The expected postretirement benefit obligation (EPBO) is the actuarial present value (APV) as of a specific date of the benefits expected to be paid to the employee, beneficiaries, and covered dependents.

 

Measurement of the EPBO is based on the following:

 

1. Expected amount and timing of future benefits

 

2. Expected future costs

 

3. Extent of cost sharing

 

The EPBO includes an assumed salary progression for a pay-related plan. Future compensation levels represent the best estimate after considering the individual employees involved, general price levels, seniority, productivity, promotions, indirect effects, and the like.

 

The APBO is the APV as of a specific date of all future benefits attributable to service by an employee to that date. It represents the portion of the EPBO earned to date. After full eligibility is attained, the APBO equals the EPBO. The APBO also includes an assumed salary progression for a pay-related plan.

 

Revenue Recognition, Deferred & Accrued Revenue

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related services. The Company revenue recognition policy follows guidance from Accounting Standards Codification(ASC) 606, Revenue from contract with customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company transferred promised goods and services to the customer and in the amount that reflect the consideration to which the company expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.

 

Following five steps are followed in recognizing revenue from contracts:

 

Identify the Contract(s), with a customer;
   
Identify the performance obligation of the contract;
   
Determine the transaction price;
   
Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and;
   
Recognize revenue when or as the company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

One of the revenue models adopted by the Company is that, it licenses its products on a per server, per user basis with the price per customer varying based on the selection of the products licensed, the number of site installations and the number of authorized users. The products offered on this basis are “Duo Subscribe” and “Facetone-enterprise.” Duo sells its software license along with software implementation and annual maintenance services under an agreement with various clients. The Company raises invoice on key milestone basis, as defined in the agreement and recognizes revenue after satisfying the performance obligations. Revenues from consulting and training services are typically recognized as the services are performed.

 

 F-10 
 

 

The Company offers annual maintenance programs on its licenses that provide for technical support and updates to the Company’s software products. Initial Annual Maintenance fees are bundled with license fees in the initial licensing period and recognized when the performance obligation of license fee is met. However, subsequent renewals of annual maintenance are charged separately for renewals. Fair value for maintenance is based upon either renewal rates stated in the contracts or separate sales of renewals to customers. Revenue is recognized ratably, or daily, over the term of the maintenance period, which is typically one year.

 

During 2018, Duo also commenced distribution of its software product ‘Facetone-hosted version” with third part telecommunication companies. It’s a revenue model where the Tele-communication provider hosts Duo’s software applications and makes them available to its customers over the Internet for a monthly subscription fee.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company received only cash as consideration for sale of licenses and related services and not in kind.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company had the following concentrations of revenues with customers:

 

Customer   September 30, 2018     September 30, 2017  
             
A     58.92 %     50.03 %
B     20.36 %     0.00 %
C     6.86 %     3.30 %
D     3.81 %     3.20 %

Significant Judgments

 

The company’s contract with customers includes multiple Software products and services to deliver and in the most of the contract the price of the separately identifiable features are stated separately. In the event the price of the multiple product and services are not mentioned in the agreement company allocate transaction price estimating the standalone selling price of the promised Products and the services. The determination of standalone selling price for each performance obligation requires judgments. Company determines standalone selling price for performance obligations based on overall pricing strategies, which consider market in which the company operates, historical data analysis, number of users of the product or services, size of the customer and the market price of the hardware used.

 

Contract Balances

 

When the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing for contract with customers deferred revenue and accrued revenue/ unbilled accounts receivables recognized by the Company. Revenue under Software Implementation contracts are invoices on stages of completion as stipulates in the agreement and the revenue recognized when the performance obligations are met and customer sign the user acceptance test (UAT). Company invoice software license fee and royalty fee at the end of the period according to the customer agreement and accrued revenue/ Unbilled revenue is recognized for the relevant period. The maintenance fee is invoiced beginning of the period and company recognize as Deferred revenue in the financial statements.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2018 Company recognized $75,602 revenue from a contract with customer as the performance obligations are completed, and has a contract balance of $101,881 from the same customer as at September 30, 2018. Company is waiting for the customer confirmation to deliver the balance product and services.

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue mainly includes purchases, product implementation costs, amortization of product development, developer support and implementation, and consultancy fees related to the products offered by Duo. The aggregate cost related to the software implementations, including support and consulting services pertaining to the revenue recognized during the reporting period, is recognized as Cost of Revenue.

 

Product research and development

 

Product research and development expenses consist primarily of salary and benefits for the Company’s development and technical support staff, contractors’ fees and other costs associated with the enhancements of existing products and services and development of new products and services. Costs incurred for software development prior to technological feasibility are expensed as product research and development costs in the period incurred. Once the point of technological feasibility is reached, which is generally upon the completion of a working prototype that has no critical bugs and is a release candidate; development costs are capitalized until the product is ready for general release and are classified within “Intangibles assets” in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company amortizes capitalized software development costs using the greater of the ratio of the products’ current gross revenues to the total of current gross revenues and expected gross revenues or on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic life of the related product, which is typically four years.

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, product research and development cost of $113,945 and $139,020, respectively, were capitalized as “Intangible assets”.

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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers: Topic 606 and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance in August 2015, March 2016, April 2016, May 2016, September 2017 and November 2017 within ASU 2015-04, ASU 2016-08, ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12, ASU 2017-13 and ASU 2017-14, respectively (collectively, Topic 606). Topic 606 requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers and will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. Topic 606 defines a five-step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates will be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under current GAAP (Accounting Standards Codification 605). Topic 606 is effective for the Company’s annual and interim reporting periods beginning January 1, 2018 (“effective date”).

 

The guidance permits two methods of adoption: retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method), or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying the guidance recognized at the date of initial application (modified retrospective method). The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method.

 

The Company has adopted implementation of ASC 606 with effect from April 1, 2018 as a result of it $0.21 million impact which was provided as at March 31, 2018 has been reversed.

 

Note 4 – Reverse Recapitalization

 

Duo (Successor) merged with DSSL (Predecessors) on December 3, 2014, and merged with DSS (Predecessors) on December 3, 2014 (Predecessors), and DSSL and DSS became the surviving corporations, in a transaction treated as a reverse recapitalization. Duo did not have any material operations and majority-voting control was transferred to DSSL.

 

In the recapitalization, Duo issued 28,000,000 shares of common stock, 5,000,000 series “A” preferred shares and $310,000 in cash in exchange for all of DSSL’s 5,000,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Duo also issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock in exchange for all of DSS’s 10,000 issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The transaction resulted in DSSL’s shareholder and DSS’s shareholder acquiring approximately 100% control.

 

The transaction also required a recapitalization of DSSL and DSS. Since DSSL and DSS acquired a controlling voting interest, they were deemed the accounting acquirer, while Duo was deemed the legal acquirer. The historical financial statements of the Company are those of combined financial statements of DSSL and DSS and of the consolidated entities from the date of recapitalization and subsequent.

 

 F-14 
 

 

Since the transaction is considered a reverse recapitalization, the presentation of pro-forma financial information was not required. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to the earliest periods presented to reflect the transaction.

B. Critical Accounting Policies:

 

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of consolidated financial statements also requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ significantly from the estimates made by our management. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. We believe that the accounting policies discussed below are critical to understanding our historical and future performance, as these policies relate to the more significant areas involving management’s judgments and estimates.

 

Critical accounting policies and estimates are those that we consider the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations because they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of the matters that are inherently uncertain.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of software licenses and related services. The Company’s revenue recognition policy follows guidance from Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606, Revenue from contracts with customers. Revenue is recognized when the Company transfers promised goods and services to the customer and in the amount that reflect the consideration to which the company expected to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services.

 

The following five steps are followed in recognizing revenue from contracts:

 

 

Identify the Contract(s), with a customer;

     
  Identify the performance obligation of the contract;
     
  Determine the transaction price;
     
  Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and;
     
  Recognize revenue when or as the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

 

One of the revenue models adopted by the Company is that it licenses its products on a per server, per user basis with the price per customer varying based on the selection of the products licensed, the number of site installations and the number of authorized users. The products offered on this basis are “Duo Subscribe” and “Facetone-enterprise.” Duo sells its software license along with software implementation and annual maintenance services under an agreement with various clients. The Company raises invoices on key milestone basis, as defined in the agreement and recognizes revenue after satisfying the performance obligations. Revenues from consulting and training services are typically recognized as the services are performed.

 

The Company offers annual maintenance programs on its licenses that provide for technical support and updates to the Company’s software products. Initial Annual Maintenance fees are bundled with license fees in the initial licensing period and recognized when the performance obligation of license fee is met. However, subsequent renewals of annual maintenance are charged separately for renewals. Fair value for maintenance is based upon either renewal rates stated in the contracts or separate sales of renewals to customers. Revenue is recognized ratably, or daily, over the term of the maintenance period, which is typically one year.

 

During 2018, Duo also commenced distribution of its software product ‘Facetone-hosted version” with third party telecommunication companies. It is a revenue model where the telecommunication provider hosts Duo’s software applications and makes them available to its customers over the Internet for a monthly subscription fee.

Provisions

 

A provision is recognized when the Company has present obligations as a result of past events. It is probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefits will be required to settle the obligations and reliable estimates can be made of amount of the obligation. Provisions are not discounted at their present value and are determined based on the best estimates required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. These estimates are reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimates.

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. 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.

 

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

 

We are exposed to financial market risks, primarily changes in interest rates. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market rates and prices.

 

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

 

Our results of operations and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. All of our revenues are normally generated in U.S. dollars or Sri Lankan rupees. Our expenses are generally denominated in the currencies in which our operations are located, which are primarily in Asia and to a lesser extent in the U.S. Our results of operations and cash flows are, therefore, subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be adversely affected in the future due to changes in foreign exchange rates. To date, we have not engaged in any foreign currency hedging strategies. As our international operations grow, we plan to generate revenues in foreign currencies and we will continue to reassess our approach to manage our risk relating to fluctuations in currency rates.

 

Inflation

 

We do not believe that inflation had a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations in the last three fiscal years. If our costs were to become subject to significant inflationary pressures, we may not be able to fully offset such higher costs through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.
