REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Stockholders of

GBS Enterprises Incorporated:

 

We have audited the consolidated balance sheets of GBS Enterprises Incorporated as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the related consolidated statements of operations, equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express and opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluation the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, based on our audits these consolidated financial statements referred to above, present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of GBS Enterprises Incorporated as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 and the results of its consolidated operations, changes in equity and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

As disclosed in Note 3, the Company changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31. Prior to this change, certain entities included in these consolidated statements reported with December 31 year ends without any adjustments for timing differences in the year end. These consolidated financial statements retroactively apply this change so all entities included in these consolidated statements have December 31, 2012 and 2011 year ends. In doing so, these consolidated statements each include a twelve month period of consolidated operations, changes in equity and cash flows, starting at January 1 and ending December 31.

 

Without qualifying our report, and because of the relative significance of the assets, we note that the reported values of goodwill and other intangibles is contingent upon the Company attaining projected revenues from new product lines. Accordingly, failure to attain those projections would negatively affect those reported values.

About Lotus Holdings, Ltd.

 

Lotus is a holding company which was formed under the laws of Gibraltar for the purpose of financing merger and acquisition projects, specifically in the niche market of small or microcap companies listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange with complex shareholder structures and whose stock is trading below one Euro (€1.00) per share. 

 

SPPEFs

 

Lotus typically finances its merger and acquisition projects through the use of Special Purpose Private Equity Funds (“SPPEFs”). Typically, SPPEFs are funded by a company’s major shareholders (the “Major Shareholders”) seeking to raise capital for projects and who fund at least 50% of the SPPEF, with the remaining portion being provided through the investment community and network of investors in Lotus. Each SPPEF is co-managed by a representative of the Major Shareholders (the “Representative Secretary”) and an attorney appointed by Lotus (the “Lotus Representative”).

 

On February 25, 2010, a group of shareholders (the “GROUP Major Shareholders”) of GROUP Software AG, a German public company trading on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under the symbol “INW” (“GROUP”), engaged Lotus to provide financial consulting and advisory services, on a non-exclusive basis, for the primary task of establishing a SPPEF. On March 12, 2010, the GROUP Major Shareholders and Lotus established and funded a SPPEF with $1,400,000, consisting of $1,000,000 from the GROUP Major Shareholders and $400,000 from a Lotus investor (collectively, the “SPPEF Members”).

 

 
 

 

In early April 2010, the SPPEF Members decided to acquire SWAV. As disclosed above, on April 26, 2010, Lotus, on behalf of the SPPEF Members, acquired an aggregate of 11,984,770 shares of SWAV common stock from the selling shareholders of SWAV for an aggregate purchase price of $370,000. The 11,984,770 shares of SWAV common stock shares represented approximately 79.9% of the 15,000,000 outstanding shares of SWAV common stock on April 26, 2010.

 

Transactions following the April 26, 2010 Transaction

 

On November 1, 2010, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 3,043,985 of the 11,984,770 shares of the Company’s common stock originally purchased by Lotus on April 26, 2010. In consideration for these 3,043,985 shares, the Company issued to Lotus a Secured Demand Note, dated November 1, 2010 (the “First Demand Note”), for the principal amount of $300,000, bearing interest at the rate of 5% per annum. The First Demand Note was repaid in September 2011.

 

Effective December 30, 2010, pursuant to securities purchase agreements between the Company and six GROUP Major Shareholders, the Company purchased an aggregate of 7,115,500 shares of GROUP common stock from the six GROUP Major Shareholders in consideration for the 3,043,985 shares of GBS common stock (the “December 2010 Transaction”). As a result, the Company owned approximately 28.2% of the outstanding common stock of GROUP.

 

Reverse Merger

 

After the December 2010 Transaction was completed, the additional GROUP Major Shareholders decided to accept the share swap offer from the Company and to effectuate a reverse merger of GROUP and the Company. To effectuate the reverse merger, on January 5, 2011, the Company repurchased from Lotus an aggregate of 2,361,426 of the 11,984,770 shares of the Company’s common stock originally purchased by Lotus on April 26, 2010. In consideration for these 2,361,426 shares, the Company issued to Lotus a Secured Demand Note, dated January 5, 2011 (the “Second Demand Note”), for the principal amount of $200,000, bearing interest at the rate of 5% per annum. The Second Demand Note was repaid in November 2011.

 

 
 

 

Effective January 6, 2011, pursuant to securities purchase agreements between the Company and the remaining GROUP Major Shareholders, the Company purchased an aggregate of 5,525,735 shares of GROUP common stock from the remaining GROUP Major Shareholders in consideration for the 2,361,426 shares of GBS common stock (the “January 2011 Transaction”). These 5,525,735 GROUP shares represented approximately 21.9% of the outstanding shares of common stock of GROUP. As a result of the December 2010 Transaction and January 2011 Transaction, the Company had acquired an aggregate of 12,641,235 shares of GROUP common stock from the GROUP Major Shareholders in consideration for an aggregate of 5,405,411 shares of GBS common stock, resulting in GBS owning approximately 50.1% of the outstanding GROUP common stock and effectuating a reverse merger of the Company and GROUP whereby GROUP became the accounting acquirer.

On February 27, 2012, the Company acquired an additional 883,765 shares of common stock of GROUP from GAVF LLC for an average purchase price of $0.70 per share, or approximately $619,000, after an outstanding loan of GROUP was converted into an aggregate of 1,750,000 shares of GROUP common stock, thereby increasing GROUP’s outstanding common stock to 26,982,000 shares.

Note 2ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The financial statements and accompanying notes are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the more significant of which are as follows:

 

 
 

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Segment Reporting

 

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) authoritative guidance regarding segment reporting establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about products and services, geographic areas and major customers. The Company has determined that it operates in only one segment – the development and maintenance of computer software programs and support products.

 

Comprehensive Income (Loss)

 

The Company adopted the FASB Codification topic (“ASC”) 220, “Reporting Comprehensive Income”, which establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components in the financial statements. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other gains and losses affecting stockholder's equity that are excluded from net income, such as unrealized gains and losses on investments available for sale, foreign currency translation gains and losses and minimum pension liability. Since inception, the Company’s other comprehensive income represents foreign currency translation adjustments and small net actuarial losses on pension plans.

 

 
 

 

Net Income per Common Share

 

ASC 260, “Earnings per share”, requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) with a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the EPS computations. Basic earnings per share amounts are based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. If applicable, diluted earnings per share would assume the conversion, exercise or issuance of all potential common stock instruments such as options, warrants and convertible securities, unless the effect is to reduce a loss or increase earnings per share. Diluted net income (loss) per share on the potential exercise of the equity-based financial instruments is not presented where anti-dilutive. Accordingly, although the diluted weighted average number of common stock outstanding is disclosed on the statements of operation, the calculated net loss per share is the same for both the basic and diluted as both are based on the basic weighted average of common stock outstanding. There were no adjustments required to net income for the period presented in the computation of diluted earnings per share.

 

Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts and other receivable, financial assets, notes payable, liabilities to banks, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities, due to related parties and retirement benefit obligations. Financial assets and liabilities are measured upon first recognition and reviewed at the financial statement date. Changes in fair value are recognized through profit and loss. Unless otherwise noted, it is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to significant interest or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Currency Risk

 

We use the US dollar as our reporting currency. The functional currencies of our significant foreign subsidiaries are the local currency, which includes the Euro, the British pound and the Bulgarian Lev. Accordingly, some assets and liabilities are incurred in those currencies and we are subject to foreign currency risks.

 

 
 

 

Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, for all financial instruments and non-financial instruments accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis. This new accounting standard establishes a single definition of fair value and a framework for measuring fair value, sets out a fair value hierarchy to be used to classify the source of information used in fair value measurement and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. It does not change existing guidance as to whether or not an instrument is carried at fair value. The Company defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, which are required to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which the Company would transact and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and credit risk.

 

The Company has adopted ASC 825, Financial Instruments, which allows companies to choose to measure eligible financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not required to be measured at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value option for any eligible financial instruments.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with a maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents.

 

Inventories

 

Pursuant to ASC 330 (Inventories), inventories held for sale are recognized under inventories. Inventories were measured at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on a first-in-first out basis, without any overhead component.

 

Goodwill and other Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets predominately comprise goodwill, acquired software and capitalized software development services. Intangible assets acquired in exchange for payment are reflected at acquisition costs. If the development costs can be capitalized per ASC 985-20-25, these are reflected as ascribable personnel and overhead costs.

 

Company created software can be intended for sale to third parties or used by the Company itself. If the conditions for capitalization are not met, the expenses are recorded with their effect on profit in the year in which they were incurred.

 

 
 

 

The Company amortizes intangible assets with a limited useful life to the estimated residual book value in accordance with ASC regulations. In addition, in special circumstances according to ASC 350-30, a recoverability test is performed and, if applicable, unscheduled amortization is considered.

 

The useful life of acquired software is between three and five years and three years for Company created software.

 

Intangible assets obtained as part of an acquisition which do not meet the criteria for a separate entry are identified as goodwill. Goodwill is reviewed once a year during an impairment test, whereby the appraised fair value of the invested capital of the reporting unit, is compared with the carrying (book) value of its invested capital amount (including goodwill.) Use value is generally applied in order to determine the recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. The projected financial plan prepared by the management serves as the basis for this determination of use value and the planning assumptions are each adjusted for the current state of knowledge. Reasonable assumptions regarding macroeconomic trends and historical developments are taken into account in making these adjustments. Future estimated cash flows are determined based on the expected growth rates of the markets in question.

 

If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the appraised fair value, the impairment based on use value measures the amount of loss, if any, and an unscheduled amortization expense is recorded. If the appraised value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is not considered to be impaired.

 

Property, Plant and Equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are valued at acquisition or manufacturing costs reduced by scheduled and, if necessary, unscheduled depreciation. Fixed assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis, prorated over their expected useful life. Scheduled depreciation for property, plant and equipment is based on useful lives of 3 to 10 years. Leasehold Improvements are depreciated up to 40 years.

 

 
 

 

If fixed assets are sold, retired or scrapped, the profit or loss arising from the difference between the net sales proceeds and the residual book value are included under other operating earnings and expenses.

 

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its fixed assets and other assets in accordance with ASC topic, 360.10. This guidance requires recognition of impairment of long-lived assets in the event the net book value of such assets exceeds its’ expected cash flows or appraised value In this instance, the asset is considered to be impaired and is written down to fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Sources of Revenues:

 

License revenues

 

Our license revenues consist of revenues earned from the licensing of our software products. These products are generally licensed on a perpetual basis. Pricing models have generally been based either upon the physical infrastructure, such as the number of physical desktop computers or servers, on which our software runs or on a per user basis. License revenues are recognized when the elements of revenue recognition for the licensed software are complete, generally upon electronic shipment of the software and the software key to provide full access to all functionalities for our customers. In general, our invoices reflect license, service and maintenance components. In the case of multi element contracts, the revenues allocated to the software license in most cases represent the residual amount of the contract after the fair value of the other elements has been determined. Certain products of our software offering are licensed on a subscription basis.

 

Software maintenance revenues

 

Software maintenance revenues are recognized ratably on a pro-rata basis over the range of the contract period. Our contract periods typically range from one to five years. Vendor-specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value for software maintenance services is established by the rates charged in stand-alone sales of software maintenance contracts or the stated renewal rate for software maintenance. Customers who are party to software maintenance agreements with us are entitled to receive support, product updates and upgrades on a when-and-if-available basis.

 

 
 

 

Professional services revenues

 

Professional services include pre-project consulting, software design, customization, project management, implementation and training. Professional services are not considered essential to the functionality of our products, as these services do not alter the product capabilities and may be performed by our customers or by other vendors. Professional services engagements performed for a fixed fee, for which we are able to make reasonably dependable estimates of progress toward completion, are recognized on a proportional performance basis based on hours incurred and estimated hours of completion. Professional services engagements that are on a time and materials basis are recognized based on hours incurred. Revenues on all other professional services engagements are recognized upon completion. Our professional services may be sold with software products or on a stand-alone basis. Vendor Specific Objective Evidence (VSOE) of fair value for professional services is based upon the standard rates we charge for such services when sold separately.

 

Foreign Currency Translation

 

The functional currency of the Company is US dollars. For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the subsidiary companies whose functional currency is other than US dollars were translated into US dollars using the current rate method. Assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rates at the balance sheet dates, revenue and expenses were translated at the average exchange rates and stockholders’ equity was translated at historical exchange rates. Any translation adjustments resulting are not included in determining net income but are included in foreign exchange adjustment to other comprehensive income, a component of stockholders’ equity.

 

Other Provisions

 

According to FASB ASC 450 “Contingencies”, provisions are made whenever there is a current obligation to third parties resulting from a past event which is likely in the future to lead to an outflow of resources and of which the amount can be reliably estimated. Provisions not already resulting in an outflow of resources in the following year are recognized at their discounted settlement amount on the financial statement date. The discount taken is based on market interest rates. The settlement amount also includes the expected cost increases. Provisions are not set off against contribution claims. If the amended estimate leads to a reduction of the obligatory amount, the provision is proportionally reversed and the earnings are recognized in other operating earnings.

 

 
 

 

Deferred Taxes

 

Income taxes are provided in accordance with FASB Codification topic 740, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. A deferred tax asset or liability is recorded for all temporary differences between financial and tax reporting and net operating loss-carry forwards.

 

Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that, that some portion or all of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment. With the objective of reducing the cost and complexity of performing an impairment test for indefinite-lived intangible assets by simplifying how an entity tests those assets for impairment and to improve consistency in impairment testing guidance among long-loved asset categories. The amendments permit an entity first to assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that an indefinite-lived intangible asset is impaired as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test in accordance with Subtopic 350-30, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – General Intangibles Other than Goodwill. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having the likelihood of more than 50 percent. The amendments are effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed beginning April 1, 2013. Adoption of this new standard is not expected to have significant impact to the Company’s financial statement.

 

Off - Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or other commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have not entered into any derivative contracts that are indexed to our shares and classified as shareholder’s equity or that are not reflected in our consolidated financial statements. Furthermore, we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to such entity. We do not have any variable interest in any unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit support to us or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with us.

 

 
 

 

Principles of Consolidation and Reverse Merger

 

As previously disclosed, the Company has exchanged a total of 5,405,411 shares of common stock in exchange for 50.1% of the outstanding common shares of GROUP. Although the Company was the legal acquirer, the transaction was accounted for as a recapitalization of GROUP in the form of a reverse merger, whereby GROUP became the accounting acquirer and is deemed to have retroactively adopted the capital structure of the Company. Accordingly, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the historical consolidated financial statements of GROUP for periods presented prior to January 6, 2011. All costs associated with the reverse merger transaction were expensed as incurred. Those expenses totaled approximately $300,000 and were included in professional fees in administrative expenses.

 

The Company has based its financial reporting for the consolidation with GROUP in accordance with the FASB ASC 805-40 as it relates to reverse acquisitions. Goodwill has been measured as the excess of the fair value of the consideration effectively transferred by the Company, the acquiree, for financial reporting purposes, over the net amount of the Company’s recognized identifiable assets and liabilities.

 

We have recorded the acquired assets and liabilities of Group Business Software Enterprises, Inc. on the acquisition date of January 6, 2011, at their fair value and the operations of Group Business Software Enterprises, Inc. have been included in the consolidated financial statements since the acquisition date.

 

The assets and liabilities of GROUP, the acquirer for financial reporting purposes, are measured and recognized in the consolidated financial statements at their precombination carrying amounts in accordance with ASC 805-40-45-2(a). Therefore, the non-controlling interest reflects the non-controlling shareholders’ proportionate interest in the pre-combination carrying amounts of GROUP’s net assets even though the non-controlling interests in other acquisitions are measured at their fair values at the acquisition date.

 

 
 

 

Note 3CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Fiscal reporting

 

Effective September 19, 2012, the Company changed its fiscal year end from March 31 to December 31. Prior to this change, the company’s subsidiaries, with the exception of SD Holdings, had fiscal year ends of December 31 and in reporting its financial statements, the Company, through the use of Regulation S-X Rule 3A-02 (“the 93 day rule”), consolidated those subsidiaries without any adjustments for timing differences in the period ends. This application was in error. With the change in year end, the Company retroactively adjusted previously released financial statements to reflect this change beginning December 31, 2010. Accordingly, the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, include the accounts of all consolidated companies for the same twelve month period beginning January 1, 2012 and 2011 respectively. The Balance Sheets as at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 have also been adjusted to include the accounts of all consolidated companies as of those dates.

 

This is Amendment No. 3 to the financial statements and notes for December 31, 2012.

 

In accordance with ASC 250, effects of this restatement to the previously reported statements for years ending December 31, 2012 and comparative December 31, 2011 are shown below. Where there were no changes between Amendment No. 3 and Amendment No. 2, these have been grouped together.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company sold SD Holdings, Ltd., and the operating assets of ebVokus GmbH, the effect of which was to reduce the goodwill associated with these subsidiaries.

 

The adjustment in GROUP Business Software AG arose as a result of the swap of liabilities into equity.

 

An impairment charge in 2012 arose as a result of repositioning GROUP Business Software Corp. and a recognition that previous capitalizations were no longer applicable.

 

Also in early 2012, the Company focused on the then emerging modernization and migration market in general but with a specific concentration towards the IBM Lotus Notes/Domino portion of the market. There was a particular geographic orientation on addressing the needs of the North America segment of that market. Strategically, the Company utilized the Transformer technology and a variety of associated analytic tools to position itself in the market. This technology represents the major portion of the Company’s total development expenses of $10.2 million in 2012. In order to align the intangible assets of the company with the fast changing market, management decided to write off the Goodwill in GBS Corp., which is associated to the classical core business entirely in the amount of $2.8 million, and to write off the capitalized development through 1/1/12 on the former Transformer technology in the amount of 1,569 KUSD.

 

 
 

 

Note 13INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Software Development costs

 

The costs of developing new software products and updating products already marketed by the Company are generally recognized as expenses in the period in which they arise. Provided they meet the conditions for capitalization as per FASB ASC 985-20-25, they are capitalized. Capitalized development costs can be attributed to the defined products. These products are technically realizable and there is a target market for them.

 

The development costs arising in the reporting period result from the personnel costs attributed to the development work as well as overhead costs, provided that these are related to the development work and do not represent general administrative costs. The ascribable overhead costs are directly recognized.

 

Capitalized development costs are generally amortized over a period of three years starting with the date of marketability of the new products or major releases.

 

Concessions, Industrial Property Rights, Licenses

 

The intangible financial assets carried in this item are licenses acquired in exchange for payment.

 

These financial assets are measured at acquisition cost less scheduled straight-line amortization. The assets added in the scope of the cost price allocation of the business divisions acquired this year.

 

The useful life spans were based uniformly throughout the Company according to those used by the parent company. Scheduled amortization is performed over a period from three to ten years.

 

The useful life of the domain “gbs.com”, was estimated as unlimited. This is because no other legal, contractual or other factors exist which would limit its useful life. It is not systematically amortized, but rather annually. Should there exist signs indicating towards impairment it is tested for recoverability and, if necessary, written down to the amount which could be obtained for it if sold.

 

 
 

 

Amortization of concessions, industrial property and similar rights and assets, as well as licenses to such rights and assets are presented in the profit and loss statement under "Depreciation and Amortization."

Options

 

The Company has not issued any options, so that none are outstanding as at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

Warrants

 

The Company has issued warrants in four different manners. In each instance, the warrant allows the holder to purchase a common share within a three year period from issuance at a specific price per share. In the first instance, warrants have been issued as part of a private placement offering wherein the investor purchases a common share, and a warrant. The fair value of those warrants has been determined (and is shown below) by utilizing the residual method, whereby the current market value of the stock is deducted from the unit price and the remainder is allocated to the warrant. The valuation of the warrants issued is for disclosure purposes only and has no impact to the financial statements. A description of those warrants has been described above under common shares.

 

The second manner in which warrants are issues is in respect to financing by way of the issuance of notes payable or the conversion of debt into shares. In these instances, the fair value of the warrant has been determined using the effective interest rate method whereby the note is discounted when the interest rate is less than other similar notes and discount is allocated to the warrant and credited to additional paid in capital. The corresponding charge to discount is then amortized over the life of the note. Where there is no difference in interest terms, no value is attributable to the warrant.

 

 
 

 

The Company has also sold warrants at nominal value to certain investors. In this instance the fair value of the warrants has been determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with volatility, equity value and interest rate inputs noted below. The valuation of the warrants issued is for disclosure purposes only and has no impact to the financial statements.

 

Lastly, the Company has issued warrants to outside consultants in consideration for services rendered. The warrants are issued as “cashless” warrants and have been valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with volatility, equity value and interest rate inputs noted below. The fair value of warrants issued for financing are determined for disclosure purposes as there is no impact to the financial statements. The fair value for other services, namely legal, and consulting have been recorded in the financial statements with a charge to the corresponding expense account and a credit to additional paid in capital.

 

Black-Scholes assumptions for warrants issued were as follows:

 

For the period ending:  12/31/2012   12/31/2011 
Volatility   120.6 - 134.3%    77.1%
Risk free interest rate   0.34 - 0.51%    1.19%
Expected Life (years)   3    3 
Dividend Rate   Nil    Nil 

 

The following share purchase warrant transactions have not been disclosed elsewhere:

 

On April 1, 2011, the former CFO was issued 100,000 share purchase warrants, which gave him the option of purchasing 100,000 shares of common stock for a period of 3 years at a price of $1.50 per common share. The value of this issuance, using the Black-Scholes pricing model was determined to $34,000 and this amount was recorded as a consulting expense.

 

In March, 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 2,020,000 warrants to five “accredited investors” pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) (formerly Section 4(2)) of the Securities Act. Each investor warrant is exercisable for the three-year period commencing from the date of issuance for $0.50 per share of Common Stock and has the same terms as the Private Placement Warrants. As noted above, investors immediately exercised warrants and purchased 900,000 shares of common stock for $450,000.

 

 
 

 

On March 27, 2012, the Company issued an aggregate of 250,000 warrants to 3 outside consultants pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) (formerly Section 4(2)) of the Securities Act. Each warrant is exercisable for the three-year period commencing from the date of issuance for $1.10 per share of Common Stock and has the same terms as the Private Placement Warrants. The value of this issuance, using the Black-Scholes pricing model was determined to $270,208 and this amount was recorded as a professional expense.

 

In December, 2012, the Company issued 16,875 warrants to an outside consultant pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) (formerly Section 4(2)) of the Securities Act. Each warrant is exercisable for the three-year period commencing from the date of issuance for $0.21 per share of Common Stock and has the same terms as the Private Placement Warrants. The value of this issuance, using the Black-Scholes pricing model was determined to $2,624 and this amount was recorded as a consulting expense

Assumptions:

 

The following table presents the weighted average actuarial assumptions that were used to determine benefit obligations and net periodic benefit costs for both pension plans.

 

 
 

 

       Pension Benefits 
   12/31/12   2012   2011 
Assumption to determine benefit obligations:               
Discount rate   3.4%   5.9%   5.7%
Rate of compensation increase   1%   1%   N/A 
Assumptions to determine net periodic benefit cost:               
Discount rate   6.0%   6.0%   6.0%
Expected return on plan assets   N/A    N/A    N/A 
Rate of compensation increase   N/A    N/A    N/A 

 

Discount rate — Future pension obligations are discounted at the end of each year based on the rate at which obligations could be effectively settled, considering the timing of estimated future cash flows related to the plans. This rate is based on high-quality bond yields, after allowing for call and default risk. High quality corporate bond yield indices are considered when selecting the discount rate.

 

Rate of compensation increase — the expected DBO for end of 2012/ 2013 is estimated to increase from $150 KUSD in 2011/ 2012 to $172 KUSD. The expected increase of the assets is estimated end of 2012/ 2013 by $5 KUSD

 

Expected return on plan assets — the expected rate of return on plan assets was determined by evaluating input from external consultants and economists as well as long-term inflation assumptions. The Company expects the long-term asset allocation to approximate the targeted allocation. Therefore, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is based on the target allocation of investment types in such assets. See plan assets discussion below for more information on GROUP AG’s target allocations.

 

Pension Plan Assets

 

GROUP AG’s overall investment objective for its pension plans’ is to eliminate further risks. Therefore, all permitted benefits are reinsurance. In total, the benefits from the permitted pension correspond to the benefits of the reinsurances which have been signed for these pension promises.

Obligations are paid when the employee retires or resigns from the company and payable only if employees serve at least five years of employment with the Company.
