Digatrade Financial Corp., a British Columbia corporation (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”), is offering up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock for $0.01 per share, for gross proceeds to the Company of up to $1,000,000, before deduction of offering expenses, assuming all shares are sold. There is no minimum aggregate offering amount, but we will impose a minimum purchase requirement of $10,000 per investor to participate in the offering, unless such minimum is waived by the Company in its sole discretion, which may be done on a case-by-case basis. We may sell significantly fewer shares of common stock than the maximum amount offered hereby. At a closing, the proceeds will be distributed to the Company and the associated shares will be issued to investors. If there are no closings, the investments for this offering will be promptly returned to investors, without deduction and without interest.
 
All shares will be offered on a “best efforts” basis. As there is no minimum offering, upon the approval of any subscription to this offering, the Company may immediately conduct a closing, deposit said proceeds into the bank account of the Company, as applicable, and use the proceeds of such closing in accordance with the “Use of Proceeds” on page 15 and “Securities Being Offered” on page 27.
 
Shares offered by the Company will be sold by our directors and executive officers on behalf of the Company. We may also elect to engage licensed broker-dealers to act as sales agents in this offering. No sales agents have yet been engaged to sell shares. All shares will be offered on a “best-efforts” basis.
 
We expect to commence the offering on the date on which the offering statement of which this offering circular is a part is qualified by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and will terminate one year thereafter or once all offered securities are sold, whichever occurs first. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may extend the offering by an additional 90 days or terminate the offering at any time.
 
Our common stock is not now listed on any U.S. national securities exchange; however, our stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Group Inc.’s OTC marketplace under the trading symbol “DIGAF”.

To understand this offering fully, you should carefully read the entire offering circular, including the section entitled “Risk Factors,” before making a decision to invest in our securities.

The Company
 
The Company is a British Columbia corporation, incorporated on December 28, 2000.
 
The Company was incorporated under the name Black Diamond Holdings Corporation. On June 26, 2007, the Company changed its name from Black Diamond Holdings Corporation to Black Diamond Brands Corporation. On November 21, 2008 the Company changed its name to Rainchief Energy Inc. and on February 19, 2015 to Bit-X Financial Corporation. On October 27, 2015 the Company changed its name to Digatrade Financial Corporation.
 
The Company is listed as a fully reporting issuer on the FINRA OTC bulletin board and trades under the symbol “DIGAF”. The Company is focused on developing blockchain technology services and building a profitable digital OTC trade desk for accredited traders and institutions seeking buyside exposure to cryptocurrency. The Company is exploring new opportunities within the sector including Initial Coin Offerings “ICO’s”, Digital Corporate Finance “DCF” and blockchain security protocol services.
 
In March 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Mega Ideas Holdings Limited, dba ANX (“ANXPRO and ANX International”), a company incorporated and existing under the laws of Hong Kong. ANX owns a proprietary trading platform and provides operational support specializing in blockchain development services and exchange and transaction services for crypto-currencies e.g. Bitcoin and other digital assets. Effective October 17, 2018 the Company closed the online retail trading platform and shared liquidity order book with ANX International owing to low transaction volumes. The Company will continue to offer OTC trading for institutional customers and accredited traders while continuing to seek new opportunities within the blockchain and the financial technology sector.
 
On February 28, 2019 the Company executed its anticipated Definitive Agreement (“DA”) with Securter Inc., a private Canadian Corporation that is developing a proprietary, patent-pending credit card payment platform to significantly increase the security of online credit card payment processing. Securter technology reduces immense losses by financial institutions and merchants that arise from fraudulent credit card use and protects cardholder privacy by eliminating the distribution of personal information to third parties. With the current worldwide surge in online commerce expected to continue for years to come, the problem of credit card security is large and growing. The Definitive Agreement with Securter sets out that Securter’s technology will be launched and commercialized as a Digatrade subsidiary.
  
Organization Structure
 
As of the date of this report the Company has three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Digatrade Limited (a British Columbia corporation), Digatrade Limited (a Nevada corporation) and Digatrade (UK) Limited (a United Kingdom corporation).

RISK FACTORS
 
In addition to the other information provided in this offering circular, we are subject to a number of risks, including risks that may prevent us from achieving our business objectives or that may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and prospects.  You should carefully consider the risks discussed in this section in evaluating our business and before purchasing any of our common stock.
 
Risks Related to the Business
 
We have a history of operating losses and need additional capital to implement our business plan.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we recorded a net loss from operations of $650,672, as compared with a net loss from operations of $346,873 for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The financial statements have been prepared using IFRS applicable to a going concern. However, as disclosed in Note 1 to the interim condensed financial statements, our ability to continue operations is uncertain.
 
We continue to incur operating losses and have a consolidated deficit of $5,826,788 as at September 30, 2018. Operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 have been funded by the issuance of convertible promissory notes and the continued support of creditors.
 
We estimate that we will require at least $1,000,000 to continue developing the OTC Trade Desk for institutions and accredited traders and cover research & development costs with the Securter technology application. Further due diligence on new prospective business opportunities within the blockchain and financial technology sector will be in process and as a result the full implementation of our business plan will be delayed until the necessary capital is raised.
 
We cannot predict when or if we will produce revenues.
 
We have not generated any revenue to date from operations. In order for us to continue with our plans and open our business, we must raise capital. The timing of the completion of the milestones needed to commence operations and generate revenues is contingent on the success of this raise. There can be no assurance that we will generate revenues or that revenues will be sufficient to maintain our business.
 
Our entry into the OTC Trade Desk for institutions and accredited traders may not be successful and there are risks attendant on these activities.
 
The crypto-currency, blockchain and coin exchange platform business is extremely volatile. There are many companies, large and small entering the market with the capital to develop and create new innovative applications resulting in a highly competitive and fast-moving environment. Even with capital and technical expertise, industry, political and compliance risks are significant. Regulatory compliance and the overall ecosystem of crypto-currencies is extremely complex and not yet fully defined by governments and financial institutions worldwide. We may not be able to finance our business plan and marketing plan, there is no assurance that our entry into this business will be successful.
 
Our entry into the development of a secure mobile application for card not present “CNP” transaction business may not be successful and there are risks attendant on these activities.
 
 The Financial Technology “Fintech” business is extremely competitive. There are many companies, large and small entering the market with the capital to develop and create new innovative applications resulting in a highly competitive and fast-moving environment. Even with capital and technical expertise, industry, political and compliance risks are significant. Regulatory compliance and the overall ecosystem for secure online payments is extremely complex and not yet fully defined by governments and financial institutions worldwide. We may not be able to finance our business plan and marketing plan, there is no assurance that our entry into this business will be successful.

The loss of key personnel or the inability of replacements to quickly and successfully perform in their new roles could adversely affect our business.
 
We depend on the leadership and experience of our key executive and chairman, Brad Moynes. Mr. Moynes functions as our chairman and executive officer, and as such, we are heavily dependent upon him to conduct our operations. In 2018, the Company added two additional directors which now brings the board to four directors. We do not have key man insurance. If Mr. Moynes resigns or dies, there could be a substantial negative impact upon our operations. If that should occur, until we find other qualified candidates to become officers and/or directors to conduct our operations, we may have to suspend our operations or cease operating entirely. In that event, it is possible you could lose your entire investment.
 
Risks Related to this Offering and Our Stock
 
The market price of our shares may fluctuate significantly.
 
The market price and liquidity of the market for shares may be significantly affected by numerous factors, some of which are beyond our control and may not be directly related to our operating performance. Some of the factors that could negatively affect the market price of our shares include:
 
our actual or projected operating results, financial condition, cash flows and liquidity, or changes in business strategy or prospects;
 
equity issuances by us, or share resales by our stockholders, or the perception that such issuances or resales may occur;
 
loss of a major funding source;
 
actual or anticipated accounting problems;
 
changes in market valuations of similar companies;
 
adverse market reaction to any indebtedness we incur in the future;
 
speculation in the press or investment community;
 
price and volume fluctuations in the overall stock market from time to time;
 
general market and economic conditions, and trends including inflationary concerns, the current state of the credit and capital markets;
 
significant volatility in the market price and trading volume of securities of companies in our sector, which are not necessarily related to the operating performance of these companies;
 
changes in law, regulatory policies or tax guidelines, or interpretations thereof;
 
operating performance of companies comparable to us; and
 
short-selling pressure with respect to shares of our shares generally.
 
As noted above, market factors unrelated to our performance could also negatively impact the market price of our shares. One of the factors that investors may consider in deciding whether to buy or sell our shares is our distribution rate as a percentage of our share price relative to market interest rates. If market interest rates increase, prospective investors may demand a higher distribution rate or seek alternative investments paying higher dividends or interest. As a result, interest rate fluctuations and conditions in the capital markets can affect the market value of our shares. For instance, if interest rates rise, it is likely that the market price of our shares will decrease as market rates on interest-bearing securities increase.
 
 

9
 
 
We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering and may not use them effectively.
 
Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of our common stock. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, cause the price of our common stock to decline and delay the development of our products and services.
 
If we have to raise capital by selling securities in the future, your rights and the value of your investment in the Company could be reduced.
 
If we issue debt securities, the lenders would have a claim to our assets that would be superior to the stockholder rights. Interest on the debt would increase costs and negatively impact operating results. If we issue more common stock or any preferred stock, your percentage ownership will decrease and your stock may experience additional dilution, and the holders of preferred stock (called preference securities in Canada) may have rights, preferences and privileges which are superior to (more favorable) the rights of holders of the common stock. It is likely the Company will sell securities in the future. The terms of such future transactions presently are not determinable.
 
If the market for our common stock is illiquid in the future, you could encounter difficulty if you try to sell your stock.
 
Our stock trades on the OTC Marketplace but it is not actively traded. If there is no active trading market, you may not be able to resell your shares at any price, if at all. It is possible that the trading market in the future will continue to be "thin" or "illiquid," which could result in increased price volatility. Prices may be influenced by investors' perceptions of us and general economic conditions, as well as the market for energy generally. Until our financial performance indicates substantial success in executing our business plan, it is unlikely that there will be coverage by stock market analysts will be extended. Without such coverage, institutional investors are not likely to buy the stock. Until such time, if ever, as such coverage by analysts and wider market interest develops, the market may have a limited capacity to absorb significant amounts of trading. As the stock is a “penny stock,” there are additional constraints on the development of an active trading market – see the next risk factor.
 
The penny stock rule operates to limit the range of customers to whom broker-dealers may sell our stock in the market.
 
In general, "penny stock" (as defined in the SEC’s rule 3a51-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) includes securities of companies which are not listed on the principal stock exchanges, or the Nasdaq National Market or the Nasdaq Capital Market, and which have a bid price in the market of less than $5.00; and companies with net tangible assets of less than $2 million ($5 million if the issuer has been in continuous operation for less than three years), or which has recorded revenues of less than $6 million in the last three years.
 
As a "penny stock" our stock therefore is subject to the SEC’s rule 15g-9, which imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers which sell such securities to persons other than established customers and "accredited investors" (generally, individuals with net worth in excess of $1 million or annual incomes exceeding $200,000, or $300,000 together with their spouses, or individuals who are the officers or directors of the issuer of the securities). For transactions covered by rule 15g-9, a broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchaser and have received the purchaser's written consent to the transaction prior to sale. This rule may adversely affect the ability of broker-dealers to sell our stock, and therefore may adversely affect our stockholders' ability to sell the stock in the public market.
 
Your legal recourse as a United States investor could be limited.
 
The Company is incorporated under the laws of British Columbia. Most of the assets now are located in Canada. Our directors and officers and the audit firm are residents of Canada. As a result, if any of our shareholders were to bring a lawsuit in the United States against the officers, directors or experts in the United States, it may be difficult to effect service of legal process on those people who reside in Canada, based on civil liability under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In addition, we have been advised that a judgment of a United States court based solely upon civil liability under these laws would probably be enforceable in Canada, but only if the U.S. court in which the judgment were obtained had a basis for jurisdiction in the matter. We also have been advised that there is substantial doubt whether an action could be brought successfully in Canada in the first instance on the basis of liability predicated solely upon the United States' securities laws.

Because the risk factors referred to above, as well as other risks not mentioned above, could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict which ones 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 statements.
 
DILUTION
 
The Company, for business purposes, may from time to time issue additional shares, which may result in dilution of existing shareholders. Dilution is a reduction in the percentage of a stock caused by the issuance of new stock. Dilution can also occur when holders of stock options (such as company employees) or holders of other optionable securities exercise their options. When the number of shares outstanding increases, each existing stockholder will own a smaller, or diluted, percentage of the Company, making each share less valuable. Dilution may also reduce the value of existing shares by reducing the stock’s earnings per share. There is no guarantee that dilution of the Common Stock will not occur in the future.
 
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
 
We are offering up to 100,000,000 shares of our common stock for $0.01 per share, for a total of up to $1,000,000 in gross offering proceeds, assuming all shares of common stock are sold. The minimum investment for any investor is $10,000, unless such minimum is waived by the Company, which may be done in its sole discretion on a case-by-case basis. There is no minimum offering amount, and we may sell significantly fewer shares of common stock than those offered hereby. In fact, there can be no assurances that the Company will sell any or all of the offered shares. At a closing, the proceeds will be distributed to the Company and the associated shares will be issued to investors. All proceeds we receive from the offering will be available to us for uses set forth in the “Use of Proceeds” section of this offering circular. If there are no closings, the investments for this offering will be promptly returned to investors, without deduction and without interest.
 
We believe that the total expenses of this offering will be $50,000, regardless of the number of shares of common stock that are sold.
 
Our common stock is not now listed on any U.S. national securities exchange; however, our stock is quoted on the OTC Markets Group Inc.’s OTC marketplace under the trading symbol “DIGAF”. There is currently only a limited market for our securities and there is no guarantee that a more substantial or active trading market will develop in the future. There is also no guarantee that our securities will ever trade on any listed exchange. Accordingly, our shares should be considered highly illiquid, which inhibits investors’ ability to resell their shares.
 
Upon this offering circular being qualified by the SEC, the Company may offer and sell shares from time to time until all of the shares registered are sold; however, this offering will terminate one year from the initial qualification date of this offering circular, unless extended or terminated by the Company. The Company may terminate this offering at any time and may also extend the offering term by 90 days.
 
Currently, we plan to have our director and executive officers sell the shares offered hereby on behalf of the Company on a “best-efforts” basis. They will receive no discounts or commissions. Our director and executive officers will deliver this offering circular to those persons who they believe might have interest in purchasing all or a part of this offering. The Company may generally solicit investors; however, it must abide by the “blue sky” regulations relating to investor solicitation in the states where it will solicit investors.
 
Our directors and officers will not register as broker-dealers under Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) in reliance upon Rule 3a4-1. Rule 3a4-1 sets forth those conditions under which a person associated with an issuer may participate in the offering of the issuer’s securities and not be deemed to be a broker-dealer. The conditions are that:
 
 

11
 
  
the person is not statutorily disqualified, as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(39) of the Securities Act, at the time of his participation;
 
the person is not at the time of their participation an associated person of a broker-dealer; and
 
the person meets the conditions of paragraph (a)(4)(ii) of Rule 3a4-1 of the Exchange Act, in that he (i) primarily performs, or is intended primarily to perform at the end of the offering, substantial duties for or on behalf of the issuer otherwise than in connection with transactions in securities; and (ii) is not a broker or dealer, or an associated person of a broker or dealer, within the preceding 12 months; and (iii) does not participate in selling and offering of securities for any issuer more than once every 12 months other than in reliance on paragraphs (a)(4)(i) or (a)(4)(iii) of Rule 3a4-1 of the Exchange Act.
 
Our officers and directors are not statutorily disqualified, are not being compensated, and are not associated with a broker-dealer. They are and will continue to hold their positions as officers or directors following the completion of the offering and have not been during the past 12 months and are currently not brokers or dealers or associated with brokers or dealers. They have not nor will they participate in the sale of securities of any issuer more than once every 12 months.
 
As of the date of this offering circular, we have not entered into any arrangements with any selling agents for the sale of the securities; however, we may engage one or more selling agents to sell the securities in the future. If we elect to do so, we will supplement this offering circular as appropriate.
 
All subscription agreements and wire transfers received by the Company for the purchase of shares are irrevocable until accepted or rejected by the Company and should be delivered to the Company as provided in the subscription agreement. A subscription agreement executed by a subscriber is not binding on the Company until it is accepted on our behalf by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or by specific resolution of our board of directors. Any subscription not accepted within 30 days will be automatically deemed rejected. Once accepted, the Company will arrange the delivery of the shares electronically via DWAC to the purchaser within five days upon receipt of the funds from the purchaser; otherwise purchasers’ shares will be issued and held in book-entry format at the Company’s Transfer Agent until further instruction are provided by the purchaser.

OTC Markets Considerations
 
The OTC Markets Group Inc. is separate and distinct from the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq stock market or other national exchange. Neither the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq has a business relationship with issuers of securities quoted on the OTC Markets. The SEC’s order handling rules, which apply to New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq-listed securities, do not apply to securities quoted on the OTC Markets.
 
Although other national stock markets have rigorous listing standards to ensure the high quality of their issuers, and can delist issuers for not meeting those standards; the OTC Markets Group Inc. has limited listing standards. Rather, it is the market maker who chooses to quote a security on the system, files the application, and is obligated to comply with keeping information about the issuer in its files.
 
Investors may have greater difficulty in getting orders filled than if we were on Nasdaq or other exchanges. Trading activity in general is not conducted as efficiently and effectively on OTC Markets as with exchange-listed securities. Also, because OTC Markets stocks are usually not followed by analysts, there may be lower trading volume than New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq-listed securities.

Executive Compensation Plans and Employment Agreements
 
Management Agreements
 
No management agreements were entered into for the period commencing January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017.
 
Equity Compensation Plans; Outstanding Equity Awards
 
Effective December 31, 2010, our Board of Directors adopted the 2010 Stock Option Incentive Plan (“the Stock Option Plan”). The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to enhance the long-term stockholder value of the Company by offering opportunities to directors, officers, key employees and eligible consultants of the Company to acquire and maintain stock ownership in the Company, in order to give these persons the opportunity to participate in the Company's growth and success, and to encourage them to remain in the service of the Company. A maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock are available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan. As of March 25, 2019, 10,000,000 stock options were outstanding with an exercise price of US$0.006.

Director Compensation
 
During the most recently completed fiscal year, there are no arrangements (standard or otherwise) under which directors of the Company were compensated by the Company or its subsidiaries for services rendered in their capacity as directors, nor were any amounts paid to the directors for committee participation or special assignments.  There were no arrangements under which the directors would receive compensation or benefits in the event of the termination of that office.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF MANAGEMENT AND CERTAIN SECURITYHOLDERS
 
The following tables set forth the ownership, as of March 25, 2019, of our shares of stock by each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 10% of our outstanding voting stock, our executive officers and director as a group. To the best of our knowledge, the persons named have sole voting and investment power with respect to such shares, except as otherwise noted. There are not any pending or anticipated arrangements that may cause a change in control.
 
The information presented below regarding beneficial ownership of our voting securities has been presented in accordance with the rules of the SEC and is not necessarily indicative of ownership for any other purpose. Under these rules, a person is deemed to be a “beneficial owner” of a security if that person has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of the security or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the security. A person is deemed to own beneficially any security as to which such person has the right to acquire sole or shared voting or investment power within 60 days through the conversion or exercise of any convertible security, warrant, option or other right. More than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities.
 
Except as otherwise indicated below and under applicable community property laws, we believe that the beneficial owners of our common stock listed below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares shown.

SECURITIES BEING OFFERED
 
This offering circular relates to the sale of up to 100,000,000 shares of our common stock by the Company at a price of $0.01 per share, for total offering proceeds to the Company of up to $1,000,000 if all offered shares are sold. There is no minimum offering amount. The minimum amount established for investors is $10,000, unless such minimum is waived by the Company, in its sole discretion. All funds raised by the Company from this offering will be immediately available for the Company’s use.
 
The Company is currently authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares of common stock without par value and 1,100,000 Class “B” Common Shares which are non-participating, voting (voting right of 1,000 votes per share) without par value. As of March 25, 2019, the Company had 230,667,223 shares of common stock and 1,100,000 shares of Class “B” Common Shares issued and outstanding.
 
Except as it relates to Class “B” Common Shares, all holders of common stock have equal voting rights, equal rights to dividends when and if declared, and equal rights to share in assets upon liquidation of the corporation.  The common shares are not subject to any redemption or sinking fund provisions.  Directors serve from year to year, there being no provision for a staggered board; cumulative voting for directors is not allowed.  Between annual general meetings, the existing board can appoint one or more additional directors to serve until the next annual general meeting, but the number of additional directors shall not at any time exceed one-third of the number of directors who held office at the expiration of the last annual meeting.  All issued and outstanding shares are fully paid and non-assessable securities.
 
In order to change the rights of the holders of common stock, the passing of a special resolution by such shareholders is required, being the affirmative vote of not less than 2/3 of the votes cast in person or by proxy at a duly called meeting of shareholders.
 
An annual meeting of shareholders must be called by the board of directors not later than 15 months after the last annual meeting.  The board at any time may call a special meeting of shareholders.  Notice of any meeting must be sent not less than 21 and not more than 50 days before the meeting, to every shareholder entitled to vote at the meeting.  All shareholders entitled to vote are entitled to be present at a shareholders meeting.  A quorum is the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of at least 5% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock.
 
Except under the Investment Canada Act, there are no limitations specific to the rights of non-Canadians to hold or vote our shares under the laws of Canada or our charter documents.  The Investment Canada Act ("ICA") requires a non-Canadian making an investment which would result in the acquisition of control of a Canadian business, the gross value of the assets of which exceed certain threshold levels or the business activity of which is related to Canada's cultural heritage or national identity, to either notify, or file an application for review with, Investment Canada, the federal agency created by the ICA.  The notification procedure involves a brief statement of information about the investment on a prescribed form which is required to be filed with Investment Canada by the investor at any time up to 30 days after implementation of the investment.  It is intended that investments requiring only notification will proceed without intervention by government unless the investment is in a specific type of business related to the scope of the ICA.  If an investment is reviewable under the ICA, an application for review in the prescribed form normally is required to be filed with Investment Canada before the investment is made and it cannot be implemented until completion of review and Investment Canada has determined that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada.  If the agency is not so satisfied, the investment cannot be implemented if not made, or if made, it must be unwound.
 
Market Price, Dividends, and Related Stockholder Matters
 
Our securities are not traded on a national exchange, but are quoted on the OTC Markets Group, Inc.’s OTC.PK marketplace. There is only a limited market for our securities.
 
The last sale price of the Company’s common stock on March 25, 2019 was $0.0104 per share.
 
The Company has approximately 109 beneficial shareholders of record at March 25, 2019.  The number of shareholders holding securities beneficially through street name nominees, as reflected in the record position of Cede & Co. and other intermediaries, is approximately 86.48%
 
 

27
 
 
On February 14, 2019, we entered into an agreement with Pikeminnow Funding LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, which allows Pikeminnow Funding, LLC to purchase up to $1.0 million of our common stock, subject to the qualification of this offering.  As such, none of our securities have been sold under such agreement to date.
 
Effective December 31, 2010, our Board of Directors adopted the 2010 Stock Option Incentive Plan (“the Stock Option Plan”). The purpose of the Stock Option Plan is to enhance the long-term stockholder value of the Company by offering opportunities to directors, officers, key employees and eligible consultants of the Company to acquire and maintain stock ownership in the Company, in order to give these persons the opportunity to participate in the Company's growth and success, and to encourage them to remain in the service of the Company. A maximum of 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock are available for issuance under the Stock Option Plan. As of March 25, 2019, 10,000,000 stock options were outstanding with an exercise price of US$0.006.
 
The Company has not paid any dividends on its common shares. The Company has no present intention of paying dividends on its common shares as it anticipates that all available funds will be invested to finance the growth of its business.
 
 
DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION ON INDEMNIFICATION FOR SECURITIES LIABILITIES
 
Our charter documents contain provisions which allow the Company to indemnify any person against liabilities and other expenses incurred as the result of defending or administering any pending or anticipated legal issue in connection with service to us if it is determined that person acted in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed was in the best interest of the Company. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act, may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

DIGATRADE FINANCIAL CORP.
Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2017 and 2016
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)
 

 
NOTE 1 – NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
 
The Company was incorporated on December 28, 2000, under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. On February 19, 2015, the Company changed its name from Rainchief Energy Inc. to Bit-X Financial Corporation. On October 27, 2015, the Company changed its name from Bit-X Financial Corporation to Digatrade Financial Corp. The Company is focused on increasing scale, further development and branding a digital asset (decentralized blockchain based crypto-currency) exchange platform.
 
In March 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Mega Ideas Holdings Limited, dba ANX (“ANX”), a company incorporated and existing under the laws of Hong Kong. ANX owns and operates a technology platform and provides operational and technology support specializing in blockchain applications and crypto-currency exchange services. In addition, they provide transaction and settlement services, debit card solutions along with blockchain development services.
 
This services agreement is in line with the Company’s business model restructuring which is to focus on licensing, developing, and branding a digital exchange trading platform and peer-to-peer electronic payment processing network.
 
The head office, principal address, and records office of the Company are located at 1500 West Georgia Street, Suite 1300, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2Z6.
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards on the basis that the Company is a going concern and will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Several conditions as set out below cast uncertainties on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the financial support from its creditors, shareholders, and related parties, its ability to obtain financing for its development projects, and upon the attainment of future profitable operations.
 
The Company has not yet achieved profitable operations and has accumulated losses of $5,176,116 since inception and working capital deficiency of $782,107 as at December 31, 2017; accordingly, the Company will need to raise additional funds through future issuance of securities or debt financing. Although the Company has raised funds in the past, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds in the future, in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations as they come due in the normal course of business. It is not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful or if the Company will attain a profitable level of operations.
 
The current cash resources are not adequate to pay the Company’s accounts payable and to meet its minimum commitments at the date of these consolidated financial statements, including planned corporate and administrative expenses, and other project implementation costs, accordingly, there is significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a)
Basis of Presentation
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified as available-for-sale that have been measured at fair value. Cost is the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for net assets.
 
b)
Statement of Compliance
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
 
These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on April 27, 2018.
 
c)
Basis of Consolidation
 
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The following companies have been consolidated within these consolidated financial statements:
 
Entity
Country of Incorporation
Holding
Functional Currency
 
 
 
 
Digatrade Financial Corp.
Canada
Parent Company
Canadian Dollar
Digatrade Limited
Canada
100%
Canadian Dollar
Digatrade (UK) Limited
United Kingdom
100%
Pounds Sterling
Digatrade Limited
USA

US Dollar
 
The Company’s former subsidiaries, Jaydoc Capital Corp. and Rainchief Renewable-1 S.R.L., were de-registered during the year ended December 31, 2015.
 
d)
Foreign Currency
 
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the functional currency of the parent company. Each subsidiary determines its own functional currency (Note 2(c)) and items included in the financial statements of each subsidiary are measured using that functional currency.
 
i)
Transactions and Balances in Foreign Currencies
 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective entity using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss.
 
Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and are not retranslated. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined.
 
ii)
Foreign Operations
 
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date and their revenues and expenses are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognized in earnings and recognized as part of the gain or loss on disposal.
 
 

37
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
e)
Financing and Finder’s Fees
 
Financing and finder’s fees relating to financial instruments with a term of one year or less are expensed in the period incurred. For financial instruments with a term of over one year, the fees are netted against the financial instruments and amortized over the term of the financial instruments.
 
f)
Share Capital
 
The Company records proceeds from share issuances, net of commissions and issuance costs.  Shares issued for other than cash consideration are valued at the quoted price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board in the United States based on the earliest of: (i) the date the shares are issued, and (ii) the date the agreement to issue the shares is reached.
 
g)
Share-Based Payments
 
The fair value method of accounting is used for share-based payment transactions. Under this method, the cost of stock options and other share-based payments is recorded based on the estimated fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date and charged to profit over the vesting period. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of equity instruments expected to vest.
 
Upon the exercise of stock options and other share-based payments, consideration received on the exercise of these equity instruments is recorded as share capital and the related share-based payment reserve is transferred to share capital. The fair value of unexercised equity instruments are transferred from reserve to retained earnings upon expiry.
 
h)
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is comprised of consulting fees and commissions earned on trades executed on the digital currency trading platform. Consulting fee income is recognized as the consulting services are provided. Commission is considered earned when a trade is completed by the Company’s customers. As the platform is not yet fully live, commissions and consulting fees earned have been accounted for as a recovery of development costs incurred.
 
i)
Loss per Share
 
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the issuance of shares on the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants is anti-dilutive. The loss per share in prior periods has been adjusted to take into account the consolidation of the Company’s common stock on June 8, 2016 (Note 10(b)(i)).
 
j)
Income Taxes
 
Tax expense recognized in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
 
i)
Current Income Tax
 
Current income tax assets and liabilities comprise those claims from, or obligations to, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
 
 

38
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
ii)
Deferred Income Tax
 
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply to their respective period of realization, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.
 
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilized against future taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Company has a right and intention to offset current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
 
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss, except where they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.
 
k)
Financial Instruments
 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss) are added to, or deducted from, the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured subsequently as described below. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments.
 
i)
Financial Assets
 
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss;
 
Loans and receivables;
 
Held-to-maturity investments; and
 
Available-for-sale financial assets.
 
  39
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
k)
Financial Instruments (Continued)
 
i)
Financial Assets (Continued)
 
The category determines subsequent measurement and whether any resulting income and expense is recognized in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income.
 
All financial assets except for those at fair value through profit or loss are subject to review for impairment at least at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied for each category of financial assets, which are described below.
 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are either classified as held for trading or that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The Company’s cash falls into this category of financial instruments.
 
Loans and receivables – Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial recognition, these are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any provision for impairment. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company’s accounts receivable falls into this category of financial instruments.
 
Held-to-maturity investments – Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity, other than loans and receivables. Investments are classified as held-to-maturity if the Company has the intention and ability to hold them until maturity. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category.
 
Held-to-maturity investments are measured subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired as determined by reference to external credit ratings, then the financial asset is measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows. Any changes to the carrying amount of the investment, including impairment losses, are recognized in profit or loss.
 
Available-for-sale financial assets – Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated to this category or do not qualify for inclusion in any of the other categories of financial assets. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category. Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and reported within the available-for-sale reserve within equity, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange differences on monetary assets, which are recognized in profit or loss. When the asset is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from the equity reserve to profit or loss, and presented as a reclassification adjustment within other comprehensive income.
 
For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.
 
In respect of available-for-sale financial assets, impairment losses previously recognized in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the revaluation reserve.
 
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred.
 
 

40
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
ii)
Financial Liabilities
 
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, or other financial liabilities upon initial recognition.
 
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss – Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities that are either classified as held for trading or that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Liabilities in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The Company does not hold financial liabilities in this category.
 
Other financial liabilities – Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the effective interest rate method amortization process. The Company’s trade and other payables, liabilities to customers, and promissory notes payable fall into this category of financial instruments.
 
A financial liability is derecognized when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired.
 
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
 
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies which are described in Note 2, management is required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 
 
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.
 
Significant judgments, estimates, and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are described below.
 
Deferred Tax Assets
 
Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unutilized tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Company will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize recognized deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the net deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.
 
 

41
 
 
NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE
 
A number of new accounting standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations have been issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company intends to adopt the following standards, if applicable, when they become effective.
 
a)
IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments
 
IFRS 9 as issued reflects the first phase of the IASBs work on the replacement of IAS 39 and applies to classification and measurement of financial assets as defined in IAS 39. The standard was initially effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2013, but amendments to IFRS 9 Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition Disclosures, issued in December 2011, moved the mandatory effective date to January 1, 2018. The Company has determined that there is no material impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
 
b)
IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers
 
IFRS 15 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were notpreviously addressed comprehensively, and improve guidance for multiple-element arrangements. The standard is effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and is to be applied retrospectively. The Company has determined that there is no material impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
 
c)
IFRS 16 – Leases
 
IFRS 16 provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring the recognition of assets and liabilities for all leases, unless the least term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged from IAS 17 and the distinction between operating and finance leases is retained. The standard is effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2019.

NOTE 15 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
 
The Company is exposed to various risks in relation to financial instruments. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities by category are summarized in Note 2(k). The Company’s risk management is coordinated in close co-operation with the board of directors and focuses on actively securing the Company’s short to medium-term cash flows and raising finances for the Company’s capital expenditure program. The Company does not actively engage in the trading of financial assets for speculative purposes.
 
The most significant financial risks to which the Company is exposed are as follows:
 
a)
Liquidity risk
 
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company is dependent upon the availability of credit from its suppliers and its ability to generate sufficient funds from equity and debt financing to meet current and future obligations. The Company has a working capital deficiency of $782,107 as at December 31, 2017. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.

b)
Interest Rate Risk
 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. The Company is not exposed to significant interest rate risk.
 
c)
Credit Risk
 
Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counter party’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company is in the development stage and has not yet commenced commercial production or sales. Therefore, the Company is not exposed to significant credit risk.
 
d)
Foreign Exchange Risk
 
Foreign exchange risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in foreign exchange rates. The Company is exposed to foreign exchange risk to the extent it incurs currency exchange platform service and development expenditures and operating costs in foreign currencies including the U.S. Dollar. The Company does not hedge its exposure to fluctuations in the related foreign exchange rates.
 
  49
 

NOTE 15 – FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES (Continued)
 
e)
Fair Values
 
The Company uses the following hierarchy for determining fair value measurements:
 
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
 
Level 2: Other techniques for which all inputs which have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable, either directly or indirectly.
 
Level 3: Techniques which use inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value that are not based on observable market data.
 
The level within which the financial asset or liability is classified is determined based on the lowest level of significant input to the fair value measurement. The Company’s financial instruments were measured at fair value use Level 1 valuation technique during the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016. The carrying values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities approximate their fair values.
 
NOTE 16 – CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
 
The Company’s objective for managing its capital structure is to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to ensure it has the financial capacity, liquidity and flexibility to fund its ongoing operations and capital expenditures.
 
The Company manages its share capital as capital, which as at December 31, 2017, amounted to $4,106,207. At this time, the Company’s access to the debt market is limited and it relies on equity issuances and the support of shareholders to fund the development of its trading platform. The Company monitors capital to maintain a sufficient working capital position to fund annualized administrative expenses and capital investments.
 
As at December 31, 2017, the Company had working capital deficiency of $782,107. The Company will issue shares and may from time to time adjust its capital spending to maintain or adjust the capital structure. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain debt or equity capital in the case of operating cash deficits.
 
The Company’s share capital is not subject to external restrictions. The Company has not paid or declared any dividends since the date of incorporation, nor are any contemplated in the foreseeable future. There were no changes in the Company’s approach to capital management during the year ended December 31, 2017.

DIGATRADE FINANCIAL CORP.
Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements 
September 30, 2018
(Expressed in Canadian Dollars)

 
NOTE 1 – NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS
 
The Company was incorporated on December 28, 2000, under the Company Act of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. On February 19, 2015, the Company changed its name from Rainchief Energy Inc. to Bit-X Financial Corporation. On October 27, 2015, the Company changed its name from Bit-X Financial Corporation to Digatrade Financial Corp. The Company is focused on increasing scale, further development and branding a digital asset (decentralized blockchain based crypto-currency) exchange platform.
 
In March 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Mega Ideas Holdings Limited, dba ANX (“ANX”), a company incorporated and existing under the laws of Hong Kong. ANX owns and operates a technology platform and provides operational and technology support specializing in blockchain applications and crypto-currency exchange services. Effective October 17, 2018 the Company closed the online retail trading platform and shared liquidity order book with ANX International (see Note 13).
 
The head office, principal address, and records office of the Company are located at 1500 West Georgia Street, Suite 1300, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2Z6.
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards on the basis that the Company is a going concern and will be able to meet its obligations and continue its operations for its next fiscal year. Several conditions as set out below cast uncertainties on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the financial support from its creditors, shareholders, and related parties, its ability to obtain financing for its development projects, and upon the attainment of future profitable operations.
 
The Company has not yet achieved profitable operations and has accumulated losses of $5,826,788 since inception and working capital deficiency of $ 151,759 as at September 30, 2018; accordingly, the Company will need to raise additional funds through future issuance of securities or debt financing. Although the Company has raised funds in the past, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to raise sufficient funds in the future, in which case the Company may be unable to meet its obligations as they come due in the normal course of business. It is not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful or if the Company will attain a profitable level of operations.
 
The current cash resources are not adequate to pay the Company’s accounts payable and to meet its minimum commitments at the date of these consolidated financial statements, including planned corporate and administrative expenses, and other project implementation costs, accordingly, there is significant doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. These consolidated financial statements do not give effect to adjustments that would be necessary to the carrying amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
a)
Basis of Presentation
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis except for financial instruments classified as available-for-sale that have been measured at fair value. Cost is the fair value of the consideration given in exchange for net assets.
 
 

57
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
b)
Statement of Compliance
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
 
These consolidated financial statements were approved and authorized for issue by the Board of Directors on August 20, 2018.
 
c)
Basis of Consolidation
 
These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements. The following companies have been consolidated within these consolidated financial statements:
 
Entity
Country of Incorporation
Holding
Functional Currency
 
 
 
 
Digatrade Financial Corp.
Canada
Parent Company
Canadian Dollar
Digatrade Limited
Canada
100%
Canadian Dollar
Digatrade (UK) Limited
United Kingdom
100%
Pounds Sterling
Digatrade Limited
USA
100%
US Dollar
 
The Company’s former subsidiaries, Jaydoc Capital Corp. and Rainchief Renewable-1 S.R.L., were de-registered during the year ended December 31, 2015.
 
d)
Foreign Currency
 
These consolidated financial statements are presented in Canadian dollars, which is also the functional currency of the parent company. Each subsidiary determines its own functional currency (Note 2(c)) and items included in the financial statements of each subsidiary are measured using that functional currency.
 
i)
Transactions and Balances in Foreign Currencies
 
Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency of the respective entity using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the re-measurement of monetary items at year-end exchange rates are recognized in profit or loss.
 
Non-monetary items measured at historical cost are translated using the exchange rate at the date of the transaction and are not retranslated. Non-monetary items measured at fair value are translated using the exchange rate at the date when fair value was determined.
  
ii)
Foreign Operations
 
On consolidation, the assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into Canadian dollars at the exchange rate prevailing at the reporting date and their revenues and expenses are translated at exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. The exchange differences arising on the translation are recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the currency translation reserve in equity. On disposal of a foreign operation, the component of other comprehensive income relating to that particular foreign operation is recognized in earnings and recognized as part of the gain or loss on disposal.

 

58
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
e)
Financing and Finder’s Fees
 
Financing and finder’s fees relating to financial instruments with a term of one year or less are expensed in the period incurred. For financial instruments with a term of over one year, the fees are netted against the financial instruments and amortized over the term of the financial instruments.
 
f)
Share Capital
 
The Company records proceeds from share issuances, net of commissions and issuance costs.  Shares issued for other than cash consideration are valued at the quoted price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board in the United States based on the earliest of: (i) the date the shares are issued, and (ii) the date the agreement to issue the shares is reached.
 
g)
Share-Based Payments
 
The fair value method of accounting is used for share-based payment transactions. Under this method, the cost of stock options and other share-based payments is recorded based on the estimated fair value using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model at the grant date and charged to profit over the vesting period. The amount recognized as an expense is adjusted to reflect the number of equity instruments expected to vest.
 
Upon the exercise of stock options and other share-based payments, consideration received on the exercise of these equity instruments is recorded as share capital and the related share-based payment reserve is transferred to share capital. The fair value of unexercised equity instruments are transferred from reserve to retained earnings upon expiry.
 
h)
Revenue Recognition
 
Revenue is comprised of consulting fees and commissions earned on trades executed on the digital currency trading platform. Consulting fee income is recognized as the consulting services are provided. Commission is considered earned when a trade is completed by the Company’s customers. As the platform is not yet fully live, commissions and consulting fees earned have been accounted for as a recovery of development costs incurred.
 
i)
Loss per Share
 
Basic loss per share is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of common shares issued and outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is the same as basic loss per share, as the issuance of shares on the exercise of stock options and share purchase warrants is anti-dilutive. The loss per share in prior periods has been adjusted to take into account the consolidation of the Company’s common stock on June 8, 2016 (Note 10(b)(i)).
   
j)
Income Taxes
 
Tax expense recognized in profit or loss comprises the sum of deferred tax and current tax not recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.
 
i)
Current Income Tax
 
Current income tax assets and liabilities comprise those claims from, or obligations to, fiscal authorities relating to the current or prior reporting periods that are unpaid at the reporting date. Current tax is payable on taxable profit, which differs from profit or loss in the consolidated financial statements. Calculation of current tax is based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period.
 
ii)
Deferred Income Tax
 
Deferred income taxes are calculated using the liability method on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated, without discounting, at tax rates that are expected to apply to their respective period of realization, provided they are enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax liabilities are always provided for in full.
 
 

59
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
ii)
Deferred Income Tax (Continued)
 
Deferred tax assets are recognized to the extent that it is probable that they will be able to be utilized against future taxable income. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset only when the Company has a right and intention to offset current tax assets and liabilities from the same taxation authority.
 
Changes in deferred tax assets or liabilities are recognized as a component of tax income or expense in profit or loss, except where they relate to items that are recognized in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, in which case the related deferred tax is also recognized in other comprehensive income or equity, respectively.
 
k)
Financial Instruments
 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized when the Company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the financial instrument.
 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value. Transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of financial assets and financial liabilities (other than financial assets and financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss) are added to, or deducted from, the fair value of the financial assets or financial liabilities, as appropriate, on initial recognition. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition of financial assets or financial liabilities classified at fair value through profit or loss are recognized immediately in profit or loss.
 
Financial assets and financial liabilities are measured subsequently as described below. The Company does not have any derivative financial instruments.
 
i)
Financial Assets
 
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial assets other than those designated and effective as hedging instruments are classified into the following categories upon initial recognition:
 
Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss;
Loans and receivables;
Held-to-maturity investments; and
Available-for-sale financial assets.
 
The category determines subsequent measurement and whether any resulting income and expense is recognized in profit or loss or in other comprehensive income.
 
All financial assets except for those at fair value through profit or loss are subject to review for impairment at least at each reporting date. Financial assets are impaired when there is any objective evidence that a financial asset or a group of financial assets is impaired. Different criteria to determine impairment are applied for each category of financial assets, which are described below.
 
● Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss – Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets that are either classified as held for trading or that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. All derivative financial instruments fall into this category, except for those designated and effective as hedging instruments. Assets in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The Company’s cash falls into this category of financial instruments.
 
 

60
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
i)
Financial Assets (Continued)
 
Loans and receivables – Loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. After initial recognition, these are measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method less any provision for impairment. Discounting is omitted where the effect of discounting is immaterial. The Company’s accounts receivable falls into this category of financial instruments.
 
Held-to-maturity investments – Held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturity, other than loans and receivables. Investments are classified as held-to-maturity if the Company has the intention and ability to hold them until maturity. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category.
 
Held-to-maturity investments are measured subsequently at amortized cost using the effective interest method. If there is objective evidence that the investment is impaired as determined by reference to external credit ratings, then the financial asset is measured at the present value of estimated future cash flows. Any changes to the carrying amount of the investment, including impairment losses, are recognized in profit or loss.
  
Available-for-sale financial assets – Available-for-sale financial assets are non-derivative financial assets that are either designated to this category or do not qualify for inclusion in any of the other categories of financial assets. The Company currently does not hold financial assets in this category. Available-for-sale financial assets are measured at fair value. Gains and losses are recognized in other comprehensive income and reported within the available-for-sale reserve within equity, except for impairment losses and foreign exchange differences on monetary assets, which are recognized in profit or loss. When the asset is disposed of or is determined to be impaired, the cumulative gain or loss recognized in other comprehensive income is reclassified from the equity reserve to profit or loss, and presented as a reclassification adjustment within other comprehensive income.
 
For financial assets measured at amortized cost, if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases and the decrease can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment was recognized, then the previously recognized impairment loss is reversed through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the investment at the date the impairment is reversed does not exceed what the amortized cost would have been had the impairment not been recognized.

In respect of available-for-sale financial assets, impairment losses previously recognized in profit or loss are not reversed through profit or loss. Any increase in fair value subsequent to an impairment loss is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in the revaluation reserve.
 
Financial assets are derecognized when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire, or when the financial asset and all substantial risks and rewards are transferred.
 
ii)
Financial Liabilities
 
For the purpose of subsequent measurement, financial liabilities are classified as either financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss, or other financial liabilities upon initial recognition.
 
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss – Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities that are either classified as held for trading or that meet certain conditions and are designated at fair value through profit or loss upon initial recognition. Liabilities in this category are measured at fair value with gains or losses recognized in profit or loss. The Company does not hold financial liabilities in this category.
 
 

61
 
 
NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
 
ii)
Financial Liabilities (Continued)
 
Other financial liabilities – Other financial liabilities are subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognized in the income statement when the liabilities are derecognized as well as through the effective interest rate method amortization process. The Company’s trade and other payables, liabilities to customers, and promissory notes payable fall into this category of financial instruments.
 
A financial liability is derecognized when it is extinguished, discharged, cancelled or expired.
 
NOTE 3 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING JUDGMENTS, ESTIMATES AND ASSUMPTIONS
 
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies which are described in Note 2, management is required to make judgments, estimates, and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
 
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods, if the revision affects both current and future periods.
 
Significant judgments, estimates, and assumptions that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognized in the consolidated financial statements are described below.
 
Deferred Tax Assets
 
Deferred tax assets, including those arising from unutilized tax losses, require management to assess the likelihood that the Company will generate sufficient taxable earnings in future periods in order to utilize recognized deferred tax assets. Assumptions about the generation of future taxable profits depend on management’s estimates of future cash flows. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods. To the extent that future cash flows and taxable income differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize the net deferred tax assets recorded at the reporting date could be impacted.
 
NOTE 4 – ACCOUNTING STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE
 
A number of new accounting standards, amendments to standards, and interpretations have been issued but not yet effective up to the date of issuance of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company intends to adopt the following standards, if applicable, when they become effective.
 
a)
IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments
 
IFRS 9 as issued reflects the first phase of the IASBs work on the replacement of IAS 39 and applies to classification and measurement of financial assets as defined in IAS 39. The standard was initially effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2013, but amendments to IFRS 9 Mandatory Effective Date of IFRS 9 and Transition Disclosures, issued in December 2011, moved the mandatory effective date to January 1, 2018. The Company has determined that there is no material impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
 
b)
IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers
 
IFRS 15 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers. IFRS 15 will also result in enhanced disclosures about revenue, provide guidance for transactions that were not previously addressed comprehensively, and improve guidance for multiple-element arrangements. The standard is effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2018 and is to be applied retrospectively. The Company has determined that there is no material impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements.
 
c)
IFRS 16 – Leases
 
IFRS 16 provides a single lessee accounting model, requiring the recognition of assets and liabilities for all leases, unless the least term is 12 months or less or the underlying asset has a low value. Lessor accounting remains largely unchanged from IAS 17 and the distinction between operating and finance leases is retained. The standard is effective for annual period beginning on or after January 1, 2019.

NOTE 14 – FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 
The Company’s financial instruments are exposed to certain financial risks:
 
a)
Fair Values
 
The carrying values of cash, bank indebtedness, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and amounts due to and from related parties approximate their fair value as at the balance sheet date.
 
b)
Liquidity Risk
 
Liquidity risk refers to the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. The Company is dependent upon on the availability of credit from its suppliers and its ability to generate sufficient funds from equity and debt financing to meet current and future obligations. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available on terms acceptable to the Company.
 
c)
Credit Risks
 
Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counter party’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. Management considers that risks related to credit are not significant to the Company at this time.
 
d)
Interest rate risk
 
Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial instrument will fluctuate because of changes in market interest rates. Management considers that risks related to interest are not significant to the Company at this time. Amounts owed from and to related parties are non-interest bearing.
 
e)
Foreign Exchange Risk
 
The Company operates in Canada and the United States and some of its material expenditures are payable in U.S. dollars. The Company is therefore subject to currency exchange risk arising from the degree of volatility of changes in exchange rates between the Canadian dollar and the U.S. dollar. The Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.

NOTE 15 – CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
