PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
This summary highlights information contained elsewhere in this prospectus. You should read the entire prospectus carefully, including the “Risk Factors” section.
We are a holding company for two subsidiaries that are technology companies in the software industry. Our Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. subsidiary is in the business of selling enterprise solutions that are designed to enhance the operating efficiency and create revenue for State Small Business Development Centers, business associations such as Chambers of Commerce and corporations through the licensing of its turn-key digital service center software, which provides a broad range of digital budgetary, administrative and commercial services applications on a single platform known as the NetPool Data System.
As a software provider, system integrator and Application Service Provider, we generate revenue from license sales, system modifications, system support, and in certain cases a percentage of monthly customer fees.
The NetPool Data System provides our licensees with the ability to operate a turnkey digital service center that is available for use by a large number of end users on a single platform without requiring these entities to have a pre-existing web site or individual software programs. Designed to be branded and administered by our licensees, the system is installed on our licensee’s server or may be hosted by Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. End users may access the system via the licensee’s web site. Utilizing the NetPool Data System, the licensees are able to offer to end users a broad spectrum of business-related software applications including sales, sales management, bid management, sub-contracting and strategic alliance searches, fiscal management, inventory control, regional market analysis and employment services. Our licensees can generate revenue through offering system services and sub-license sales to individual end users. Typically our licensees charge their customers monthly usage and transaction-based fees. The host licensee may also sell sub-licenses to other entities in their states or vertical markets and provide those entities with the ability to offer similar services to their customer/member/consumer base.
Our subsidiary, Secure Blue, Inc., has developed security software that is designed to meet the computer system monitoring needs required to implement internal control systems required by public companies by allowing all sensitive digital files to be tracked and usage of the files to be monitored by designated compliance officers within the organization. This software was released for sale in April 2005 and has not generated any revenue as of the date of this prospectus. No revenue was generated by Secure Blue in 2004.
We were originally incorporated on June 18, 1996, under the laws of the State of Florida under the name Celebrity Steakhouses, Inc. The corporate name was changed to Deerfield Financial Services, Inc. effective October 28, 1996. On January 31, 1998, Deerfield acquired all of the outstanding stock of Optical Concepts of America, Inc., a Delaware corporation, which was formed on April 30, 1996. Prior to the acquisition, the Company had not commenced any active business operations. The corporate name of Optical Concepts of America, Inc. was adopted on July 6, 1998 and we engaged in the development, design and marketing of a collection of fashionable prescription eyeglass frames as well as a line of upscale, ready-to-wear, non-prescription reading eyewear until the end of 2000 when it divested this business. Since that time until November 2003 we redirected our efforts and limited resources to seeking potential new business opportunities or business transactions with other companies. We signed a share exchange agreement to acquire Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. in November 2003 and changed our name to IBSG International, Inc. in November 2003. The share exchange agreement closed on February 13, 2004.
We maintain our principal executive offices at 1132 Celebration Blvd., Celebration, FL 34747. Our telephone number is (321) 939-6321.
The Offering
The prospectus covers up to 11,715,927 of our common stock which may be sold by the selling security holders identified in this prospectus.
RISK FACTORS
Please read this prospectus carefully. You should rely only on the information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus to make your investment decision. We have not authorized anyone to provide you with different information. We are not offering these securities in any state where the offer is not permitted. You should not assume that the information in this prospectus is accurate as of any date other than the date on the front page of this prospectus.
Except for historical information, the information in this prospectus contains forward-looking statements about our expected future business and performance. Our actual operating results and financial performance may prove to be very different from what we might have predicted as of the date of this prospectus.
BUSINESS RISKS
WE HAVE NOT ACHIEVED PROFITABLE OPERATIONS AND MAY NOT BE PROFITABLE IN THE FUTURE.
We incurred a net loss of $2,558,613 in 2004 and a net loss of $376,848 in 2003. Our expenses are currently greater than our revenues. Our ability to operate profitably depends on generating sales and achieving sufficient gross profit margins. We cannot assure you that we will achieve or maintain profitable operations in the future.
OUR INDEPENDENT AUDITORS HAVE EXPRESSED DOUBT AS TO OUR ABILITY TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.
Our financial statements have been prepared assuming we will continue as a going concern. Due to our losses to date, our independent auditors have expressed doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements included elsewhere herein do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
We believe that the additional funding we received in March 2005 along with the cash we expect to generate from our business will be sufficient to enable us to meet our capital needs for at least the next twelve months. However, there can be no assurances that we will be able to successfully achieve profitable operations and positive cash flows from operations and obtaining additional capital to meet present and future working capital demands.
The shares offered by this prospectus are being sold by shareholders and the Company will not receive any of the proceeds of any such sales. We believe the proceeds of the notes we sold in 2005, as detailed in “Recent Financing”, as well as the cash we expect to generate from operations will enable us to meet our capital needs for at least the next twelve months. We may have to curtail our operations if we do not have sufficient funds to pay for the expenses of operating our business. See, “Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations- Liquidity and Capital Resources.”
WE HAVE EXPERIENCED DIFFICULTY IN COLLECTING AMOUNTS DUE US FROM OUR CUSTOMERS
Our customers are generally government agencies and non-profit chambers of commerce. Most of these customers have been exceedingly tardy in paying their obligations to us and some have not been able to pay us all that we were owed. We cannot be sure that we will be able to collect all of the amounts due us from our customers. This may require us to curtail our operations due to lack of funds to operate our business.
WE HAVE A LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY WHICH MAKES YOUR EVALUATION OF OUR BUSINESS DIFFICULT.
Our Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. subsidiary acquired our NetPool Data System software and began servicing licensees of such software in 2004. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in relatively new and rapidly evolving markets. These risks include:
• uncertain commercial acceptance of our products, including our Secure Blue product which was introduced into the commercial marketplace in April 2005;
• technological obsolescence; and
• competition, including competition from other software products which may enable users to achieve the same results as our software.
We cannot assure you that we will succeed in addressing these risks. If we fail to do so, our revenue and operating results could be materially harmed.
LOSS OF A MAJOR CUSTOMER WOULD SUBSTANTIALLY HARM OUR OPERATING RESULTS.
Substantially all of our revenue comes from two customers, both of which are governmental entities. Loss of either of such customers would substantially harm our operating results.
OUR SOFTWARE PRODUCTS MAY NOT ACHIEVE SUFFICIENT MARKET ACCEPTANCE.
We cannot assure you that our current or new products will prove sufficiently attractive to our clients and potential clients to enable us to reach a sufficient level of sales to generate net income and positive cash flows.
REDUCED FUNDING OF SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT CENTERS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUES
Our NetPool Data System product is designed to enhance the operating efficiency and create revenue for State Small Business Development Centers (SBDCs). The centers represent the core potential customer market for the NetPool Data System. These organizations are dependent upon funding from state and Federal governmental sources. Reduced funding to these organizations may force them to cease being our customers or reduce the possibility of our acquiring additional small business development centers in the future.
OUR FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY PROTECT OUR PROPRIETARY RIGHTS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY.
We rely on a combination of contracts, copyrights and other security measures in order to establish and protect our proprietary rights. We can offer no assurance that the measures we have taken or may take in the future will prevent misappropriation of our technology or that others will not independently develop similar products, design around our proprietary technology or duplicate our products.
WE RELY ON A LICENSE FROM OUR CONTROLLING STOCKHOLDER FOR THE SOFTWARE WHICH CURRENTLY ACCOUNTS FOR ALL OF OUR REVENUE. OUR RIGHT TO USE SUCH SOFTWARE MAY BE TERMINATED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.
Under the terms of the license of our NetPool software, the license may be terminated in the event we are acquired or merged, or if any material change occurs in the constitution, management, control or the financial or other circumstances of the Company which, in the reasonable opinion of the licensor is materially detrimental to the interest of the licensor. All improvements, changes or developments in and/or to the software, whether such improvements, changes or developments are designed or created by the Company or the licensor remain the property of the licensor. We may not assign the license or any part of it without the licensor’s prior consent. These terms may make the Company less attractive as a target for potential acquirors and may inhibit another firm from seeking to acquire the Company.
OUR BUSINESS IS DEPENDENT IN PART ON THIRD PARTY LICENSEES WHOM WE DO NOT CONTROL.
We provide our NetPool Data System to certain licensees on a revenue sharing basis whereby we receive a percentage of the revenue generated by our licensees from end users of the product. If these licensees are not successful in developing end users who pay for use of the product then we will not receive the revenues we expect from these arrangements.
OUR BUSINESS AND OPERATING RESULTS WILL SUFFER IF OUR SYSTEMS OR THE INTERNET FAIL, BECOME UNAVAILABLE OR PERFORM POORLY SO THATCURRENT OR POTENTIAL USERS DO NOT HAVE ADEQUATE ACCESS TO OUR PRODUCTS OVER THE INTERNET.
Our NetPool Data System software is generally accessed by end users over the internet. Our ability to provide our products and services to our customers and operate our business depends on the continued operation of our information systems and the internet. A significant or repeated reduction in the performance, reliability or availability of our information systems or the internet could harm our ability to conduct our business, and harm our reputation and ability to attract and retain customers.
OUR INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS EXPOSE OUR BUSINESS TO ADDITIONAL RISKS.
A significant portion of our 2004 revenue was derived from a customer in Nigeria. This may involve risks inherent in doing business on an international level, including difficulties in managing operations due to distance, language and cultural differences, different or conflicting laws and regulations, political instability and difficulty in collection of receivables.
WE MAY HAVE DIFFICULTY IN MEETING THE DEMANDS WHICH MAY ARISE IN THE EVENT OF SIGNIFICANT GROWTH IN OUR OPERATIONS.
In the event we are successful in developing significant additional demand for our products we may experience significant pressure on the Company’s managerial, operational, and financial resources. We may be required to rapidly add to our staff and facilities which may require additional financing. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in meeting the challenges of managing the growth of our business.
SECURITIES RISKS
“PENNY STOCK” RULES MAY MAKE BUYING OR SELLING OUR SECURITIES DIFFICULT.
Trading in our securities will be subject to the “penny stock” rules for the foreseeable future. The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations that generally define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. These rules require that any broker-dealer who recommends our securities to persons other than prior customers and accredited investors must, prior to the sale, make a special written suitability determination for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to execute the transaction. Unless an exception is available, the regulations require the delivery, prior to any transactions involving a penny stock, of a disclosure schedule explaining the penny stock market and the risks associated with trading in the penny stock market. In addition, broker-dealers must disclose commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities they offer. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from recommending transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the liquidity of our securities and consequently adversely affect the market price for our securities.
IF THE SELLING SECURITY HOLDERS ALL ELECT TO SELL THEIR SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AT THE SAME TIME, THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR SECURITIES MAY DECREASE.
It is possible that the selling security holders will offer all or substantially all of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus for sale. Further, because it is possible that a significant number of shares could be sold at the same time hereunder, the sales, or the possibility thereof, may have a depressive effect on the market price of our common stock.
RECENT FINANCING
On March 24, 2005 we closed a financing transaction with four accredited investors pursuant to which we received $1,000,000 in gross cash proceeds from the issuance of senior secured convertible notes in a principal amount of $1,000,000 and warrants to purchase 3,548,388 shares of Common Stock.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATION
The following discussion of our results of operations and liquidity and capital resources should be read in conjunction with our Financial Statements and related Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this prospectus.
Overview
The Company is a holding company for two subsidiaries that are technology companies in the software industry. Our Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. subsidiary is in the business of licensing enterprise solutions that are designed to enhance the operating efficiency and create revenue for State Small Business Development Centers, business associations and corporations through the licensing of its turn-key digital service center software, which provides a broad range of budgetary, administrative and commercial applications on a single platform known as the NetPool Data System.
The NetPool Data System provides our licensees with the ability to operate a turnkey digital service center that is available for use by a large number of entities on a single platform without requiring these entities to have a pre-existing web site or digital catalogue. Branded and administered by our licensees, the system is installed on our licensee’s server or may be hosted by Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. The end users may access the system via the licensee’s web site. Utilizing the NetPool Data System, the licensees are able to offer a broad spectrum of business-related software applications to their end users. Each end user can create individualized business models through the system’s comprehensive on-line billing functions. Our licensees can generate revenue through system services and sub-licenses to individual end users. Typically the licensees charge their end user customers monthly usage and transaction-based fees. The host licensee may also sell sub-licenses to other entities in their states or vertical markets and provide those entities with the ability to offer similar services to their customer/member/consumer base.
We receive revenue from the licensing of the use of the NetPool Data System to our clients, fees for customizing the software for our clients, fees for software maintenance, fees for hosting services and training. We may also receive sublicense fees from the revenue received from the fees our customers charge individual users of the system. We have agreed to waive our customary license and maintenance fees and receive only a share of the revenue generated by two new customers for use of the system. No revenue was received from this sharing arrangement in 2004.
Our subsidiary, Secure Blue, Inc., is developing security software that is designed to meet the computer system monitoring needs required to implement internal control systems required by public companies by allowing all sensitive digital files to be tracked and usage of the files to be monitored by designated compliance officers within the organization. This software was released for sale in April 2005. No revenue was generated by Secure Blue in 2004 or during the first quarter of 2005.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. A critical accounting policy is one that is both very important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results, and requires management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. Typically, the circumstances that make these judgments difficult, subjective and/or complex have to do with the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. We believe the accounting policies below represent our critical accounting policies:
• Revenue recognition;
• Estimating sales returns and the allowance for doubtful accounts;
• Value of long lived assets including purchased software;
• Valuation of services paid for with common stock.
Revenue Recognition. As described below, significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with the revenue recognized in any accounting period. Material differences may result in the amount and timing of our revenue for any period if our management made different judgments or utilized different estimates.
| We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position, or SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended, by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition. The Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. We recognize license revenues when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection of the related receivables is probable, delivery of the license has occurred and the customer has accepted the license (including the expiration of an acceptance period) if the terms of the contract include an acceptance requirement. Licenses are considered delivered once a license agreement has been entered into between the customer and the Company. Actual access to the software, due to the web nature of the software, is provided upon a mutually agreed schedule but the license fee due at time of conveyance and is not contingent upon the customer providing the hardware, staff for training or scheduling conflicts in general. Training and installation are included in the license fee and can be delivered at any time after the license has been conveyed. A portion of the year one license revenue and any subsequent years licenses are amortized on an annual basis commensurate with the start of the license agreement and then each subsequent anniversary date of the license and recognized generally in 12 periods (months) per year. The revenue recognition policy is as follows; 65% of the year one license recognized upfront to cover the costs related to the installation, testing, training and the initial investment/purchase of the license of the System. This revenue is recognized in month one. The original agreement on the purchase of the license of System was to be paid within a payment schedule over a period of time in order to recoup implementation costs. It was agreed that on an average taking 65% license fee would cover this cost, the initial expenses of the employees’ time on business development which includes assisting the customer with public awareness and providing initial marketing assistance and guidance in developing a list of prospect sub-license candidates as well as presentation assistance for the same and initial profit for the license sale. The balance in deferred would be maintenance costs for the remainder of the first year and gross profit. The average contract length is five years. As stated in paragraph 27 of SOP 97-2, the customer intends to utilize the system over that period of time as an integral part of their overall operation and as such can continue to be reflected as fixed or determinable. The length of time that a customer is projected to bring invoices current is 12 months and believed to be atypical for these types of contracts but is expected by management to reduce in time to no more then 9 months to be brought current at such time as our receivables become part of the customers’ accounts payable system. Based on paragraph 28 of SOP 97-2, our contracts are generally long term (greater then 12 months and payments on invoices are not expected to be longer than 12 months, the fee is therefore recognized as fixed and determinable as set forth in paragraph 28. |
In the event that we grant a customer the right to specified upgrades and vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for such upgrades, value to the customer is determined on a stand-alone basis and there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the undelivered elements. Professional services and other revenues, when sold with subscription and support offerings, are accounted for separately until we have delivered the specified upgrade or additional service. If professional services are essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement, we defer recognition of revenue until we have satisfied our professional services obligations. To date, professional services have not been essential to the functionality of the other elements, and thus have been accounted for separately.
| | We consider a non-cancelable agreement signed by the customer and us to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery is considered to occur when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier, or the customer is given electronic access to the licensed software. Our typical end user license agreements do not contain acceptance clauses. We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable if the fee is not subject to refund or adjustment. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, we recognize revenue as the amounts become due and payable. The possibility of cancellation is considered “remote” as stated in paragraphs 33, of SOP 97-2. As directed per paragraph 33, no contingency for cancel ability is required. Therefore there are no funding clauses in our agreements and therefore the Company has not adopted any accounting policies for such conditions. If, in the future, such clauses are added to any license agreements, the Company will develop the appropriate policies as described in paragraphs 32 and 33 of SOP 97-2. |
Probable assurance of collection is based upon our assessment of the customer’s financial condition through review of their current financial statements or credit reports. Additional consideration is given to the type of customer. Most of our customers are government or quasi-government agencies and are thus considered low collection risk although payments could take as long as 12 months to be brought current by the customer due to the slow pay nature of such entities. As stated in paragraph 27 of SOP 97-2, the customer intends to utilize the system over that period of time as an integral part of their overall operation and as such can continue to be reflected as fixed or determinable. The length of time that a customer is projected to bring invoices current is 12 months and believed to be atypical for these types of contracts but is expected by management to reduce in time to no more then 9 months to be brought current at such time as our receivables become part of the customers’ accounts payable system. Based on paragraph 28 of SOP 97-2, our contracts are generally long term (greater then 12 months and payments on invoices are not expected to be longer than 12 months, the fee is therefore recognized as fixed and determinable as set forth in paragraph 28. Late payments and interest can be assessed based on unpaid balances on a monthly basis. Contracts do not include Rights of Return. They do include cancellation clauses available to both parties for material breaches of contracts.
For follow-on sales to existing customers, prior payment history is also used to evaluate probability of collection. If we determine that collection is not probable, we will defer the revenue and recognize the revenue upon cash collection. When our software licenses contain multiple elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on the relative fair values of the elements. Multiple element arrangements generally include post-contract support (PCS or maintenance), software products, and end-user subscriptions with billings recorded as received and in some cases, other professional services. Revenue from multiple-element arrangements is allocated to undelivered elements of the arrangement, such as PCS, based on the relative fair values of the elements specific to us. Our determination of fair value of each element in multi-element arrangements is based on vendor-specific objective evidence, which is generally determined by sales of the individual element to third parties or by reference to a renewal rate specified in the related arrangement.
Where vendor-specific objective evidence of fair-value exists for all undelivered elements, but evidence does not exist for one or more delivered elements, we account for the delivered elements in accordance with the Residual Method prescribed by SOP 98-9. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. In most cases, the bundled multiple elements include PCS and the software product. In such cases, when vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all of the undelivered elements (most commonly PCS), the residual or remaining amount is recognized as revenue and the PCS is recognized ratably over the PCS term, which is typically 12 months.
Revenues from professional services consist of training and implementation services. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are not considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement and are accounted for as a separate element. Professional services are recognized as the services are performed for time and materials contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price contracts. A provision for estimated losses on fixed-price professional services contracts is recognized in the period in which the loss becomes known.
Deferred revenues include amounts billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized that generally results from deferred maintenance, consulting or training services not yet rendered and license revenue deferred until all requirements under SOP 97-2 are met. Deferred revenue is recognized upon delivery of our products, as services are rendered, or as other requirements requiring deferral under SOP 97-2 are satisfied.
In 2004 we recognized revenue of $3,295,014 based on the foregoing revenue recognition policies and deferred revenue of $1,347,486.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales Returns. We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts and a sales return allowance to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when we assess the realization of accounts receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts may be required. We initially record a provision for doubtful accounts based on our historical experience, and then adjust this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, we consider (i) the type of entity (government, commercial, retail) and the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable, such as whether it derives from license, professional services or maintenance revenue; (iv) our historical provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customers industry, whether the entity is government, as well as general economic conditions, among other factors.
Should any of these factors change, the estimates that we make may also change, which could impact our future provision for doubtful accounts. For example, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, affecting their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required.
Value of long lived assets including purchased software. We capitalize and amortize the costs incurred in acquiring and developing our software products. The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and reviews long-lived assets and identifiable tangibles whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such assets may not be fully recoverable. We are required to evaluate the carrying values of our long lived assets and may be required to reduce the value in the event we determine that the value is impaired from the current carrying amount based on our estimate as to whether or not the carrying amount of a long-lived asset is recoverable from our estimate of its undiscounted cash flows. The estimates that we make regarding the future revenue we will receive from such assets will impact the whether we will be required to recognize an impairment of such assets and the amount of any impairment. There were no impairment charges in 2004.
Acquired technology consists of the following: The NetPool Software System (the System) which was acquired from the M&K Trust and was valued at the value of the note payable between the Company and the M&K Trust of $958,659. The Company has also acquired the Secure Blue Program for the issuance of 650,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.56 per share for consideration of $364,000 plus cash and payables of $46,089 for total consideration of $$410,089. The Company is amortizing these software assets over periods of 5 years on a straight line basis.
Valuation of services paid for with common stock. Issuances of common stock for services are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the shares issued, whichever is a more reliable measure. We valued such issuances on the market value of our common stock at the time of authorizing such share issuances which we considered to be the more reliable measure. We recognized $1,647,466 of expense in 2004 for the shares issued to the consultants and expect to recognize the balance of the expense, amounting to $5,729,143, over the remaining life of the consulting agreements. We recognized $2,445,843 in compensation expense in 2004 for the 2,267,104 shares issued for services already received. We will review our estimates of the value of the future services to be received under such consulting arrangements against the unamortized value of the shares and may accelerate the recognition of compensation expense if indicated.
Results of operations – Year ended December 31, 2004 and 2003
Revenue
No revenue was realized in 2003. We achieved revenue of $3,295,014 in 2004. Such revenue consisted of license fees, subscription fees and customization fees related to our NetPool Data System software from two customers. We defer revenue from our other customers for the NetPool Data System until cash is received in accordance with our revenue recognition policies. Three of our chamber of commerce clients terminated use of the NetPool Data System during 2004 due to insolvency or management changes.
Our licenses for the state of California for each regional office are sold for $50,000 each for the first year. The Company recognizes 65% of the license fee or $32,500 as revenue upon the activation of the license by a regional office. The balance of 35% is amortized on a straight line basis over a one year period. During the year ended December 31, 2004 we activated 33 licenses for regional offices.
Our licenses for the Government of Nigeria consisted of the following: 1) 1st year license fee of a 5 year term effective from June 1, 2004 to June 1, 2005 for $250,000. Of this amount $162,500 was recognized upon the activation of the license and the balance of $87,500 is being amortized on a straight line basis over the 1 year period. 2) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses at $6.00 per business per month for a period of three (3) months total invoice of $630,000. All of this revenue was recognized in the period of June 1, 2004 to September 1, 2004. 3) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses for the next three months which is being recognized on a straight line basis for the period from September 2004 to November 1, 2004 total invoice of $840,000, and 4) a subscription fee for 35,000 businesses for the six months ended June 1, 2005. The invoice was for $1,260,000 of which $210,000 was recognized for December 2004 and the balance of $1,020,000 is deferred for 2005.
Deferred Revenue
Deferred revenue is comprised of the unrecognized revenue related to unearned license fees, support contracts and other prepayments for which the earnings process has not been completed. Deferred revenue at December 31, 2004 was $1,347,486.
Cost of Sales
Cost of Sales was $223,293 in 2004 or less than 7% of revenues. Cost of sales is the amortization and depreciation of the software assets.
Services paid for with common stock
Stock-based compensation was $4,093,309 in 2004 arising out of the issuance of common stock as compensation for services received and to be received, along with Bonus Shares. We received services relating to business support, marketing and public relations as well as advising the Company of potential business and investment opportunities. We issued 6,342,792 shares of common stock to 6 groups which were valued at the prices of the common stock on the dates of issue. The contracts are for 5 year terms and are being amortized on a straight line basis over the term of the contracts. The total contract values are a combined $6,987,413 and are being amortized at a monthly rate of approximately $116,456 per month. The purpose of the contracts for services were primarily related to the expansion of public awareness, both domestically and abroad. The overseas agreements primarily focus on United Kingdom and several other countries in Europe. 3,075,000 shares were issued to consulting companies controlled or represented by the wife of Geoffrey Birch, our chief financial officer and a director. The Company expects that some service may have to be paid with cash such as overseas programmers or for direct business development services in forming strategic relationships abroad. Programmers with senior experience of 10 years or more with the latest experience in the significant technology being utilized by IT cost less than half of our current programmers, on an hourly basis. The cost for both services is projected to cost less than 10% of the projected revenue from existing contracts and therefore the company does not anticipate there will be a significant negative impact on cash flows for the year.
Amortization and depreciation
Amortization and depreciation expense was $30,757 for 2004. We recognized amortization and depreciation expense on our furniture, fixtures and equipment.
Bad debt expense
Bad debt expense was $172,072 in 2004 and $115,231 in 2003.
General and Administrative Expense
General and administrative expenses were $1,139,555 in 2004 and $202,368 in 2003. General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries, related personnel costs, fees for professional services and other general corporate costs. General and administrative expenses increased in 2004 primarily due to staff size and time period (in 2003 the company had general expenses for only two months while 2004 was a 12 month period.
Loss on extinguishment of related party debt
On June 26, 2004, the Company issued 1,500,000 shares of common stock to the M&K Trust as a partial payment on the note payable. The shares were valued at the closing price on the date of issuance of $0.45 per share. Pursuant to the agreement, the balance on the note payable to the M&K Trust was to be $250,000 after the share issuance. As a result of the share valuation, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $156,765 because the share value of $675,000 exceeded the amount of the debt being extinguished which was $518,235..
Interest
Interest expense was $38,876 in 2004 and $59,249 in 2003.
Net Income (Loss)
As a result, we reported a net loss of $2,558,613 in 2004 and a net loss of $376,848 in 2003.
Results of Operations for the Quarter ended March 31, 2005 and 2004
The Company maintained a conservative revenue recognition policy related to previously held contracts but has recognized new business or new licenses activated under previous contracts according to conservative recognition policies under GAAP. The Company reflected revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2005at $1,108,544 and deferred revenues of $688,942, for total revenues of $1,797,486 (deferred pending recognition based on amortization policies previously stated; See Note 2 of the Financial Statements). Due to the Company’s policy of not recognizing revenue on its license agreements until payment, the Company reflected no revenues on the $671,000 of customization work completed in quarter ended March 31, 2004.
The Company had operating expenses of $926,841 in the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The expenses we incurred in the quarter ended March 31, 2005, were primarily amortization of consulting services, depreciation, and general and administrative expenses.
This reflects an operating profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 of $181,703. The Company has incurred cumulative operating gain in quarter ended March 31, 2005 of $213,483, and a net operating loss of $2,721,978 to date.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We incurred cumulative operating losses through March 31, 2005 of $2,721,978. We have not had earnings or positive cash flow in 2004 or 2003. Net cash used by operating activities was $974,221 in 2004. Net cash used by operating activities was $92,963 in 2003. As a result, our independent auditors have stated that our losses from operations raise doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We made up our cash shortfall in 2004 primarily by sale of common stock. We further addressed our capital requirements in March 2005 by sale of $1,000,000 of Senior Secured Convertible Notes. We believe the proceeds of the notes as well as the cash we expect to generate from operations will enable us to meet our capital needs for at least the next twelve months.
The Company and all of the subsidiaries use approximately $82,000 per month for general operating expenses. Average cost for implementation if new contracts is $23,000 per month for the first 3 months for a total of $69,000 per contract. Projected new business in number of contracts is difficult to project due to the size range of potential contracts. It is estimated that based on calculations of the average smaller contract revenue which is $100,000 license fee year 1 and approximate cash collections, the company would need an additional $600,000 for new contract development, $250,000 for expansion for expansion of Secure Blue product and $150,000 general expenses.
Net cash used in investing activities in 2004 was $1,842,656. Net cash used in investing activities was $123,032 in 2003. Net cash used in investing activities in 2004 was primarily due to the acquisition of fixed assets, a loan to Commerce, Inc. in the amount of $171,072 and advances to our IBSG Group subsidiary prior to consolidation.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $2,819,739 in 2004 and $221,554 in 2003. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2004 was due primarily to the net proceeds from the sale of our common stock and the amount we borrowed from a related party in connection with the purchase of fixed assets.
The Company and all of the subsidiaries use approximately $82,000 per month for general operating expenses. Average cost for implementation if new contracts is $23,000 per month for the first 3 months for a total of $69,000 per contract. Projected new business in number of contracts is difficult to project due to the size range of potential contracts. It is estimated that based on calculations of the average smaller contract revenue which is $100,000 license fee year 1 and approximate cash collections, the company would need an additional $600,000 for new contract development, $250,000 for expansion for expansion of Secure Blue product and $150,000 general expenses.
The ultimate costs and benefits of these additional expenditures are not fully known. We may seek to raise additional funds through public or private equity financing, or through other sources such as credit facilities. The sale of additional equity securities could result in dilution to our shareholders. In addition, in the future, we may enter into cash or stock acquisition transactions or other strategic transactions that could reduce cash available to fund our operations or result in dilution to shareholders.

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On February 13, 2004 the Company purchased a software license and other assets from M&K Trust, a Trust controlled by the wife of the President and a controlling shareholder, in exchange for a note payable in the amount of $958,659 payable in one hundred twenty (120) equal installments of $12,132.76 on the last day of each month commencing December 1, 2003, with the final installment due and payable on November 30, 2015, which payments include interest at the rate of 8% per annum. The note was secured by a security agreement covering all of the Company’s tangible and intangible assets. The assets sold to the Company include the exclusive license of software and source codes for the Company’s proprietary software as well as various license/maintenance agreements with the users of such software and accounts receivable generated under such license/maintenance agreements. In June 2004, the Company and the Trust agreed to partially satisfy the note and modify the remaining payment terms. This amendment allowed the Company to substantially reduce its cash requirements to fulfill its obligations to M&K Trust. The Company agreed to issue 1,500,000 shares of its common stock to the M&K Trust and pay $125,000 to the Trust as a partial payment on the note payable. The shares were valued at the closing price on the date of issuance of $0.45 per share. Pursuant to the agreement, the balance on the note payable to the M&K Trust was to be $125,000 after the share issuance and $125,000 payment which was to be paid on January 2, 2005 without further interest. As a result of the share valuation, the Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $156,765 because the shares valued at $675,000 exceeded the amount of the debt being extinguished which was $518,235. During the year ended December 31, 2004, the Company made cash payments of $243,815 on the note payable. M&K Trust also agreed to release its security agreement on the Company’s assets and this was done in 2005. However, in March 2005 a financing statement covering all the assets of IBSG International, Inc. was filed in the State of Florida on behalf of the Rivers Family Trust as the secured party.
During the year ended December 31, 2004, the M&K Trust loaned an additional $42,351 to the Company in addition to the above-referenced note. At December 31, 2004, the Company owed the M&K Trust $238,960. As of June 2, 2005 the Company owed M&K Trust $3,967.
The President of the Company waived the right to receive $100,000 of his 2004 salary which has been accounted for as a contribution to the Company’s capital.
On January 15, 2004, the Company issued 3,075,000 shares of common stock to consulting companies controlled or represented by the wife of Geoffrey Birch, our Chief Financial Officer and a director. These shares were valued at $1.28 per share and were set up as deferred compensation. The deferred compensation of $3,936,000 is being amortized on a straight line basis of 5 years based on the consulting contracts.
The Company loaned $5,009, $171,072 and $115,231 to Commerce, Inc. in the periods ending March 31, 2005, December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003 respectively. These amounts were deemed to be uncollectible due to Commerce’s insolvency. Accordingly the Company recorded a bad debt expense of $171,072 and $115,231 for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. Michael Rivers, the Company’s President and a director is a former officer and director of Commerce. He served as Commerce’s president and as a director for seven years prior to his extended personal leave in September of 2002 and resignation in February 2003.
OUR BUSINESS
We are a holding company for two subsidiaries that are technology companies in the software industry. Our Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. subsidiary is in the business of selling enterprise solutions that are designed to enhance the operating efficiency and create revenue for State Small Business Development Centers, business associations such as Chambers of Commerce and corporations through the licensing of its turn-key digital service center software, which provides a broad range of digital budgetary, administrative and commercial services applications on a single platform known as the NetPool Data System.
The original software of Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. primarily emphasized workforce matters and was substantially modified and revised to develop a fully functioning business platform that would serve as a digital commerce center for the development and support of small to mid-size businesses.
As a software provider, system integrator and application service provider, we generate revenue from license sales, system modifications, system support, and in certain cases a percentage of monthly customer fees.
The NetPool Data System provides our licensees with the ability to operate a turnkey digital service center that is available for use by a large number of end users on a single platform without requiring these entities to have a pre-existing web site or individual software programs. Designed to be branded and administered by our licensees, the system is installed on our licensee’s server or may be hosted by Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. End users may access the system via the licensee’s web site. Utilizing the NetPool Data System, the licensees are able to offer to end users a broad spectrum of business-related software applications including sales, sales management, bid management, sub-contracting and strategic alliance searches, fiscal management, inventory control, regional market analysis and employment services. Our licensees can generate revenue through offering system services and sub-license sales to individual end users. Typically our licensees charge their customers monthly usage and transaction-based fees. The host licensee may also sell sub-licenses to other entities in their states or vertical markets and provide those entities with the ability to offer similar services to their customer/member/consumer base.
Our subsidiary, Secure Blue, Inc., has developed security software that is designed to meet the computer system monitoring needs required to implement internal control systems required by public companies by allowing all sensitive digital files to be tracked and usage of the files to be monitored by designated compliance officers within the organization. This software was released for sale in April 2005. No revenue was generated by Secure Blue in 2004.
Secure Blue will seek to generate revenues from seat licenses, maintenance and monthly subscription fees related to global monitoring across multiple locations. Secure Blue’s technology is based on security software which monitors the key strokes of all users on a network and has had success in the retail market under the name of Spyware. We do not sell this program and purchased the technology underlying this program to expedite the development of the computer system monitoring programs described herein.
Secure Blue expects to release two versions of its software. The first version is referred to as the shrink wrap version and is projected to be sold by bulk seat price for a single network at $6,000 per 25 seats. The enterprise version includes multiple networks and is 100 seat licenses at $25,000. The enterprise version comes with monthly maintenance for the first year and then is $5k per year there after. Multi network wireless reporting is available at $100/network. The shrink version monthly maintenance is an additional $1500 annually.
Market for our products
The potential market for the NetPool Data System includes any entity that has a customer, vendor or membership base comprised of small to mid size business enterprises. The potential markets for Secure Blue are public companies required to establish internal control systems.
The market for the NetPool Data System includes state operated Small Business Development Centers, business organizations such as chambers of commerce, large corporations, and other entities which seek to help small and medium size businesses succeed. When Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. sells a master “host” license to a state SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT CENTER or chamber of commerce, that entity can sell “sub-licenses’ to the other vertical markets in their respective states or markets, from which Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. may receive incremental revenue.
Small Business Development Centers
Many states operate Small Business Development Centers funded by a combination of US Small Business Administration and state resources. The purpose of these centers is to provide a range of assistance and training to the small and mid-size business sector. We currently have a license agreement with California’s small business development center system which has fifty regional offices.
Fortune 1000 Corporations:
Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. suggests that Small business development centers seek to sell Corporate Sponsor subscription licenses to Fortune 1000 corporations for an average of $75,000/year. This license would provide the sponsor with unlimited access to the constituent pool of the Small business development centers small-mid size businesses of which a significant percentage are minority owned in order to facilitate the large corporation’s recruitment of small and minority owned businesses as vendors. The System platform permits end users to interact not only with these large corporations, but also among each other. Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. anticipates receiving 60% of all such licenses sold. To date no such sponsorship licenses have been sold.
Business Associations:
Other business associations such as local chambers of commerce have membership or offer services to small and medium size businesses. We seek to license the NetPool Data System to these organizations as a way of providing additional services and generate additional revenues.
Economic Development Projects/Workforce Projects/Financial Institutions:
These markets reflect a combination of the above market needs. The NetPool Data System can provide them with similar benefits and the ability to create multiple associations with the other markets in a similar fashion as previously described.
Foreign Markets
In 2004 we signed a license agreement with an agency of the country of Nigeria. We may have more difficulty collecting amounts that are owed to us from foreign customers.
Our Customers
Our licenses for the state of California for each regional office are sold for $50,000 each for the first year. The Company recognizes 65% of the license fee or $32,500 as revenue upon the activation of the license by a regional office. The balance of 35% is amortized on a straight line basis over a one year period. During the year ended December 31, 2004 we activated 33 licenses for regional offices.
Our licenses for the Corporate Affairs Commission (Government of Nigeria) consisted of the following: 1) 1st year license fee of a 5 year term effective from June 1, 2004 to June 1, 2005 for $250,000. Of this amount $162,500 was recognized upon the activation of the license and the balance of $87,500 is being amortized on a straight line basis over the 1 year period. 2) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses at $6.00 per business per month for a period of three (3) months total invoice of $630,000.

Sales & Market Strategy
Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. current marketing effort primarily consists of “word of mouth” referrals from existing or potential customers, various conventions and trade shows and cold calling entities with resources and marketing research. The most effective and powerful marketing tool is the demonstration of the system and its comprehensive features. Demonstrations and contract negotiations are handled on a personal basis.
To achieve our growth plans Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. needs to employ more business developers, present a more visible presence at conventions and accelerate contract implementation. We also anticipate the need to provide enhanced training and marketing services to its customers, which can best be achieved by acquiring existing service companies with expertise in that field. The addition of more technical staff will accelerate contract implementation and add-on work (system modifications) as the customer base is extended. There can be no assurance that we will be able to meet our growth plans or have sufficient financial resources to provide the enhanced services.
Marketing, Sales and Support
The Company markets its products primarily through direct contact of potential customers, referrals from existing customers or potential customers and conferences that are market specific. The key to the marketing of the various products is the ability under the NetPool product to enable customers to act as channel partners through the ability to sell sub-licenses of the system and provide a revenue generating digital service center to their customers. This makes us dependent on the efforts of our customers since we have no direct way to communicate with those parties which may be potential ultimate users of the NetPool product. Secure Blue has direct market application focusing primarily on the small cap public companies.
Secure Blue is currently seeking to establish channel partner arrangements with Investor Relation firms that primarily target the small cap market. Secure Blue will also seek to expand its marketing efforts to include telemarketing and direct target contact through telemarketing firms that specializes in software sales. There can be no assurance that Secure Blue will be able to establish satisfactory channels of distribution for its product or that the product will generate success in the marketplace.
Customer Support
The Company believes that strong customer support is crucial to both the initial marketing of its products and maintenance of customer satisfaction, which in turn will enhance our reputation and generate repeat orders. In addition, we believe that customer interaction and feedback involved in our ongoing support functions provide us with information on market trends and customer requirements that is critical to future product development efforts. Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. provides toll free and web site support. However, the first line of support is built into the systems through a self diagnostic feature which is enhanced by the system being capable of providing instructions to navigate a user error or auto report a potential system “bug” which is directed to the technical center’s program team which can correct the anomaly on-line and auto down load the correction to all systems.
Research and Development
We believe that our success will depend in large part on our ability to maintain and enhance our current product lines, develop new products, maintain technological competitiveness and meet an expanding range of customer requirements. The Company constantly requests and receives comments on desired functionality or system changes from not only the company’s customers but the customer’s, customer. The Company also intends to hold focus groups taking a sample population of customers and discussing in an open forum the potential revisions of the various systems.
Competition
We believe we are the leading provider of digital commerce and management systems for small and medium businesses provided over the internet. However our products compete against a variety of individual software programs designed to provide similar functions for small and medium sized business users. Additionally, many digital commerce solutions are available to small businesses through established internet portals such as Yahoo. Many internet hosting providers help their customers set up e-commerce sites and provide software for such sites. Internet based service providers are increasingly targeting the small and medium business market. A wide variety of consultants market e-commerce solutions to small businesses and offer a more personalized service than are available through small business development centers.
Secure Blue has a fairly dense competition pool for its base system but most of the competition is focused on the Fortune 500 markets whereas Secure Blue is focused on the small cap public market. However, a number of these competitors have established distribution channels which our product has not achieved.
Manufacturing
Our products are principally composed of user manuals and storage media, such as diskettes tapes, and/or CD-ROM. All coding and revisions are done at the central offices of the Company for all subsidiaries’ products. All servers related to initial back up and developments are at the same location. The Company does very limited “hosting” which is done on-site. The Company follows the standard course for treatment of development software and storage with back up power supplies, redundant server farms and off site back up services.
Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
We have a license agreement with M&K Trust as licensor under which we have the exclusive right to use the NetPool Data System software which currently provides all of our revenue. We purchased the license from M&K Trust as set forth in “Related Party Transactions.” The license may be terminated in the event we are acquired or merged, or if any material change occurs in the constitution, management, control or the financial or other circumstances of the Company which, in the reasonable opinion of the licensor is materially detrimental to the interest of the licensor. A material change would also include existing management having less than fifty percent representation on a revised board of directors. All improvements, changes or developments in and/or to the software, whether such improvements, changes or developments are designed or created by the Company or the licensor remain the property of the licensor. We may not assign the license or any part of it without the prior consent of the licensor. These terms may make the Company less attractive as a target for potential acquirors.
The Company currently relies upon a combination of trademark, copyright, and trade secret laws and contractual provisions to protect proprietary rights in its products. The source code for the Company’s products is protected both as a trade secret and as an unpublished copyrighted work. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use the Company’s products or technology without authorization. In addition, the laws of various countries in which the Company’s products may be sold may not protect the Company’s products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States. Because the software industry is characterized by rapid technological change, the Company believes that factors such as the technological and creative skills of its personnel, new product developments, frequent product enhancements, name recognition and reliable product maintenance are more important to establishing and maintaining a technology leadership position than the various legal protections of its technology. There can be no assurance that the Company’s competitors will not independently develop technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to the Company’s technology. There can also be no assurance that the measures taken by the Company to protect its proprietary rights will be adequate to prevent misappropriation of the technology or independent development by others of similar technology.
Although the Company believes that its products and other proprietary rights do not infringe upon the proprietary rights of third parties there can be no assurance that third parties will not assert intellectual property infringement claims against the Company in the future or that any such claims will not require the Company to enter into royalty or cross-license arrangements or result in costly litigation.

Personnel
As of March 15, 2005 the Company, including all subsidiaries had a total of 21 employees, 6 of which were engaged in marketing, sales and related customer support services, 10 were in research and development, and 5 were in general and administrative functions. Our success depends in significant part upon the performance of our senior management and certain key employees. Competition for highly skilled employees, including sales, technical and management personnel is intense in the software industry. There can be no assurance that the Company will retain its key managerial and technical employees. The Company’s failure to attract, assimilate or retain highly qualified sales, technical and managerial personnel could materially adversely affect the Company’s business. None of the Company’s employees are represented by a labor union. The Company has never experienced any work stoppages. None of our employees has a written employment agreement.
Sales & Market Strategy
Intelligent Business Systems Group Inc. currently has two active customers for its NetPool Data System. We additionally have __ other customers with whom we have signed agreements, but have not yet delivered the software. These customers are not reflected in our results of operations. Our historic dependence on a small number of customers may result in substantial swings in our operating results.

Steven Gold and Double U Master Fund LP invested an aggregate of $1,000,000 in our senior notes and Stock purchase warrants as more fully described under “Recent Financing”. The shares listed represent shares which these investors may acquire upon the exercise of warrants to purchase our common stock and conversion of our senior notes into our common stock and represents approximately 150% of the number of shares which we would issue upon such exercise and conversion. We agreed to register such additional amount pursuant with our agreement with these investors. |
We are not a party to any agreement, arrangement, or understanding regarding the sale of any of these shares by the selling shareholders.
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The shares of common stock owned, or which may be acquired, by the selling shareholders may be offered and sold by means of this prospectus from time to time as market conditions permit in the over-the-counter market, or otherwise, at prices and terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then-current market price, or in negotiated transactions. These shares may be sold by one or more of the following methods, without limitation:
* a block trade in which a broker or dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
* purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;
* ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers; and
* face-to-face transactions between sellers and purchasers without a broker/dealer.
In effecting sales, brokers or dealers engaged by the selling shareholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Such brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from selling shareholders in amounts to be negotiated.
The selling shareholders and any broker/dealers who act in connection with the sale of the shares hereunder may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of section 2(11) of the Securities Acts of 1933, and any commissions received by them and profit on any resale of the shares as principal might be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions under the Securities Act. We have agreed to indemnify the selling shareholders, and any securities broker/dealers who may be deemed to be underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act as underwriters or otherwise.
We have advised the selling shareholders that they and any securities broker/dealers or others who may be deemed to be statutory underwriters will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements under the Securities Act. We have also advised each selling shareholder that in the event of a “distribution” of the shares owned by the selling shareholder, such selling shareholder, any “affiliated purchasers”, and any broker/dealer or other person who participates in such distribution, may be subject to Rule 102 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 until their participation in that distribution is completed. Rule 102 makes it unlawful for any person who is participating in a distribution to bid for or purchase stock of the same class as is the subject of the distribution. A “distribution” is defined in Rule 102 as an offering of securities “that is distinguished from ordinary trading transactions by the magnitude of the offering and the presence of special selling efforts and selling methods”. We have also advised the selling shareholders that Rule 101 under the 1934 Act prohibits any “stabilizing bid” or “stabilizing purchase” for the purpose of pegging, fixing or stabilizing the price of the common stock in connection with this offering.
We do not intend to distribute or deliver the prospectus by means other than by hand or mail.
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
As of June 24, 2005, we have 48,858,292 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. This does not include shares that may be acquired under outstanding warrants to purchase common stock., or conversion of convertible promissory notes.
We cannot predict the effect, if any, that market sales of common stock or the availability of these shares for sale will have on the market price of our shares from time to time. Nevertheless, the possibility that substantial amounts of common stock may be sold in the public market could negatively damage and affect market prices for our common stock and could damage our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity securities.
TRANSFER AGENT
The transfer agent for our shares of common stock is Florida Atlantic Stock Transfer Co., Inc. located at 7130 Nob Hill Road, Tamarac, Florida33321.
REPORTS TO SECURITY HOLDERS
We file annual, quarterly and special reports, proxy and in foundation statements with the Security and Exchange Commission. See, “Where you can find more information.” We intend to furnish our security holders with annual reports containing audited financial statements. We may disseminate such other unaudited interim reports to security holders, as we deem appropriate.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
There is no material litigation pending or, to our knowledge, threatened against us.
LEGAL MATTERS
Joel Bernstein, Esq., Miami, Florida will render an opinion concerning the legality of the shares being distributed hereby.

To the Board of Directors of
IBSG International, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Celebration, Florida
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of IBSG International, Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2004, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall consolidated financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IBSG International, Inc. and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has recorded significant losses from operations, and has insufficient revenues to support operational cash flows, which together raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 8. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2004 and 2003
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION
| The consolidated financial statements presented include those of IBSG International, Inc. (International) and its wholly owned subsidiaries Intelligent Business Systems Group, Inc. (Group) and Secure Blue, Inc. (Secure Blue). Collectively they are referred to as ‘the Company’. All material intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. |
| International was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in June 1996 as Celebrity Steakhouses, Inc. It changed it name to Deerfield Financial Services, then to Optical Concepts of America, Inc. and then in November 2003, it changed its name to IBSG International, Inc. International has not conducted any meaningful business activities and prior to the reverse merger with Group was a shell company. |
| Group was incorporated in the State of Delaware on January 9, 2003. Group was incorporated for the purpose of providing software solutions to small business development and banking and business association markets. |
| Secure Blue was established as a new subsidiary in June 2004 to utilize acquired security technology in addressing the digital monitoring of records for purposes of satisfaction of certain accounting control requirements of public companies. |
| Pursuant to a Share Exchange Agreement dated November 10, 2003, which was effective on February 13, 2004, International acquired 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Group, in exchange for 15,000,000 shares of its common stock. These shares were issued to the stockholders of Group in exchange for their wholly owned interest in Group. At the time of acquisition, the stockholders of Group acquired control of International and accordingly, for accounting purposes, Group was treated as the acquiring entity. International is the continuing entity for legal purposes. There was no adjustment to the carrying value of the assets or liabilities of Group. The Companies began planned principle operations as of the date of the reverse merger. |
| Concurrent with the Share Exchange Agreement, M&K Trust (a trust controlled by the wife of the president and chairman of the Company) (Trust) sold certain assets to International in exchange for a note payable of $958,659. The note bears interest at 8.00% per annum and is secured by a security agreement naming all of the tangible and intangible assets of International. The assets sold to the Company include the exclusive license of software and source codes for the Company’s proprietary software as well as various license/maintenance agreements with the users of such software. Group assumed the obligations of a previous company as licensor under such agreements. The trust obtained these assets from a company that was controlled by the president and chairman of the Company. Because of the related party nature of this transaction, the assets were valued at predecessor costs and represent actual cash which were paid to the previous company by the Trust for the development and commercialization of the software. |

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION (Continued)
| a. Organization (Continued) |
| International completed an acquisition of certain assets of RedHand International, a UK based company, which included sophisticated security software and a channel partner agreement. International created a new company called Secure Blue which will (1) market the aquired software as a comprehensive solution for Sarbanes-Oxley compliance; (2) integrate the software into it’s other subsidiary Group’s digital commerce platform with the benefits of adding monitoring capabilities as well as position businesses utilizing the platform to be Sarbanes-Oxley compliant and: (3) to cross market the products into receptive vertical markets. The purchase of RedHand consisted of 650,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.56 per share totaling $364,000 plus $46,088 of amounts due to be paid in cash. The entire purchase price of $410,088 was allocated to the software purchased which will be amortized over a 5 year period on a straight line basis. |
NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
| The consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual method of accounting. The Company has elected a calendar year end |
| 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 the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. |
| c. Cash and Cash Equivalents |
| The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents |

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
| Our license agreements typically run for five years. A first year license fee, inclusive of installation, integration and training, is payable at the initiation of the license. However, neither of our customers paid at the initiation of the license. License maintenance is payable on the second through fifth anniversary date of the license. Each fee covers the license/maintenance fee for one year. Such fees are accounted as unearned revenue and recognized as revenue ratably over each annual period. We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position, or SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended, by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition. The Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. We recognize license revenues when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection of the related receivables is probable, delivery of the license has occurred and the customer has accepted the license (including the expiration of an acceptance period) if the terms of the contract include an acceptance requirement. Licenses are considered delivered once a license agreement has been entered into between the customer and the Company. Actual access to the software, due to the web nature of the software, is provided upon a mutually agreed schedule but the license fee due at time of conveyance and is not contingent upon the customer providing the hardware, staff for training or scheduling conflicts in general. Training and installation are included in the license fee and can be delivered at any time after the license has been conveyed. A portion of the year one license revenue and any subsequent years licenses are amortized on an annual basis commensurate with the start of the license agreement and then each subsequent anniversary date of the license and recognized generally in 12 periods (months) per year. In the event that we grant a customer the right to specified upgrades and vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for such upgrades, value to the customer is determined on a stand-alone basis and there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the undelivered elements. Professional services and other revenues, when sold with subscription and support offerings, are accounted for separately until we have delivered the specified upgrade or additional service. If professional services are essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement, we defer recognition of revenue until we have satisfied our professional services obligations. To date, professional services have not been essential to the functionality of the other elements, and thus have been accounted for separately. |
| We consider a non-cancelable agreement signed by the customer and us to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery is considered to occur when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier, or the customer is given electronic access to the licensed software. Our typical end user license agreements do not contain acceptance clauses. We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable if the fee is not subject to refund or adjustment. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, |

| d. Revenue Recognition (Continued) |
| we recognize revenue as the amounts become due and payable. Probable assurance of collection is based upon our assessment of the customer’s financial condition through review of their current financial statements or credit reports. Additional consideration is given to the type of customer. Most of our customers are government or quasi-government agencies and are thus considered low collection risk although payments could take as long as 12 months to be brought current by the customer due to the slow pay nature of such entities. Late payments and interest can be assessed based on unpaid balances on a monthly basis. Contracts do not include Rights of Return. They do include cancellation clauses available to both parties for material breaches of contracts. |
| For follow-on sales to existing customers, prior payment history is also used to evaluate probability of collection. If we determine that collection is not probable, we will defer the revenue and recognize the revenue upon cash collection. When our software licenses contain multiple elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on the relative fair values of the elements. Multiple element arrangements generally include post-contract support (PCS or maintenance), software products, and end-user subscriptions with billings recorded as received and in some cases, other professional services. Revenue from multiple-element arrangements is allocated to undelivered elements of the arrangement, such as PCS, based on the relative fair values of the elements specific to us. Our determination of fair value of each element in multi-element arrangements is based on vendor-specific objective evidence, which is generally determined by sales of the individual element to third parties or by reference to a renewal rate specified in the related arrangement. |
| Where vendor-specific objective evidence of fair-value exists for all undelivered elements, but evidence does not exist for one or more delivered elements, we account for the delivered elements in accordance with the Residual Method prescribed by SOP 98-9. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. In most cases, the bundled multiple elements include PCS and the software product. In such cases, when vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all of the undelivered elements (most commonly PCS), the residual or remaining amount is recognized as revenue and the PCS is recognized ratably over the PCS term, which is typically 12 months. |
| Revenues from professional services consist of training and implementation services. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are not considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement and are accounted for as a separate element. Professional services are recognized as the services are performed for time and materials contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price contracts. A provision for estimated losses on fixed-price professional services contracts is recognized in the period in which the loss becomes known. |

| d. Revenue Recognition (Continued) |
| Deferred revenues include amounts billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized that generally results from deferred maintenance, consulting or training services not yet rendered and license revenue deferred until all requirements under SOP 97-2 are met. Deferred revenue is recognized upon delivery of our products, as services are rendered, or as other requirements requiring deferral under SOP 97-2 are satisfied. |
| Our licenses for the state of California for each regional office are sold for $50,000 each for the first year. The Company recognizes 65% of the license fee or $32,500 as revenue upon the activation of the license by a regional office. The balance of 35% is amortized on a straight line basis over a one year period. During the year ended December 31, 2004 we activated 33 licenses for regional offices. |
| Our licenses for the corporate affairs commission (Government of Nigeria) consisted of the following: 1) 1st year license fee of a 5 year term effective from June 1, 2004 to June 1, 2005 for $250,000. Of this amount $162,500 was recognized upon the activation of the license and the balance of $87,500 is being amortized on a straight line basis over the 1 year period. 2) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses at $6.00 per business per month for a period of three (3) months total invoice of $630,000. All of this revenue was recognized in the period of June 1, 2004 to September 1, 2004. 3) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses for the next three months which is being recognized on a straight line basis for the period from September 2004 to November 1, 2004 total invoice of $840,000, and 4) a subscription fee for 35,000 businesses for the six months ended June 1, 2005. The invoice was for $1,260,000 of which $210,000 was recognized for December 2004 and the balance of $1,020,000 is deferred for 2005. |
| Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales Returns |
| We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts and a sales return allowance to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when we assess the realization of accounts receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts may be required. We initially record a provision for doubtful accounts based on our historical experience, and then adjust this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, we consider (i) the type of entity (government, commercial, retail) and the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable, such as whether it derives from license, professional services or maintenance revenue; (iv) our historical provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customers industry, whether the entity is government, as well as general economic conditions, among other factors. |

| Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales Returns (Continued) |
| Should any of these factors change, the estimates that we make may also change, which could impact our future provision for doubtful accounts. For example, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, affecting their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. |
| The Company records the values for the common stock issuances based on the closing prices of the common stock on the date of authorization for services, extinguishments of debt or any other consideration other than cash. From time to time, the Company will enter the equity market and raise cash from unaffiliated 3rd party investors. These issuances are valued at the cash prices that the Company is able to sell the stock for. |
| We currently have two (2) customers, the State of California and the Government of Nigeria. Our accounts receivable are as follows at December 31, 2004: |
| |
Corporate Affairs Commission (Nigeria) | | | $ | 2,965,075 | |
State of California | | | | 1,650,000 | |
| | | $ | 4,615,075 | |

| The Company has excluded 1,475,000 warrants because their effect is antidilutive. |
| Deferred taxes are provided on a liability method whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amount of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely then not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment. |

| h. Income Taxes (Continued) |
| The income tax provision differs from the amount of income tax determined by applying the U.S. federal and state income tax rates of 39% to pretax income from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 due to the following: |
| 2004 | 2003 |
Book income | | | $ | (1,009,559 | ) | $ | (146,971 | ) |

| | | | |
| At December 31, 2004, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $3,200,000 that may be offset against future taxable income from the year 2004 through 2024. No tax benefit has been reported in the December 31, 2004 financial statements since the potential tax benefit is offset by a valuation allowance of the same amount. |
| Due to the change in ownership provision of the Tax Reform Act of 1986, net operating loss carryforwards for Federal income tax reporting purposes are subject to annual limitations. Should a change in ownership occur, net operating loss carryforwards may be limited to use in future years. |
| i. Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
| On December 16, 2004 the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, which is an amendment to SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. This new standard eliminates the ability to account for share-based compensation transactions using Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and generally requires such transactions to be accounted for using a fair-value-based method and the resulting cost recognized in our financial statements. This new standard is effective for awards that are granted, modified or settled in cash in interim and annual periods beginning after June 15, 2005. In addition, this new standard will apply to unvested options granted prior to the effective date. We will adopt this new standard effective for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2005, and have not yet determined what impact this standard will have on our financial position or results of operations. |

| i. Recent Accounting Pronouncements (Continued) |
| In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No.153, Exchange of Nonmonetary Assets. This Statement addresses the measurement of exchanges of nonmonetary assets. The guidance in APB Opinion No. 29, Accounting for Nonmonetary Transactions, is based on the principle that exchanges of nonmonetary assets should be measured based on the fair value of the assets exchanged. The guidance in that Opinion, however, included certain exceptions to that principle. This Statement amends Opinion 29 to eliminate the exception for nonmonetary exchanges of similar productive assets and replaces it with a general exception for exchanges of nonmonetary assets that do not have commercial substance. A nonmonetrary exchange has commercial substance if the future cash flows of the entity are expected to change significantly as a result of the exchange. This Statement is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. Earlier application is permitted for nonmonetary asset exchanges incurred during fiscal years beginning after the date of this statement is issued. Management believes the adoption of this Statement will have no impact on the financial statements of the Company. |
| The implementation of the provisions of these pronouncements are not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statement presentation. |
| Cost of sales in comprised of the amortization of the capitalized software costs. |
| The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 142 and reviews long-lived assets and identifiable tangibles whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company evaluates the recoverability of long-lived assets by measuring the carrying amounts of the assets against the estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with these assets. At the time such evaluation indicates that the future undiscounted cash flows of certain long-lived assets are not sufficient to recover the assets’ carrying value, the assets are adjusted to their fair values (based upon discounted cash flows). |
| l. Research and Development Expenses |
| The Company expenses Research and Development expenses as incurred. During the years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 the Company expense $0, and $0, respectively. |

Revenues had not been sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern.

There can be no assurance that the Company can or will be able to complete any debt or equity financing. If these are not successful, management is committed to meeting the operational cash flow needs of the Company. |

| NOTE 2- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
| Our license agreements typically run for five years. A first year license fee, inclusive of installation, integration and training, is payable at the initiation of the license. However, neither of our customers paid the license fee at the initiation of the license. License maintenance is payable on the second through fifth anniversary date of the license. Each fee covers the license/maintenance fee for one year. Such fees are accounted as unearned revenue and recognized as revenue ratably over each annual period. We recognize revenue in accordance with Statement of Position, or SOP 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition,” as amended, by Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition. The Company adopted Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-21, Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables. We recognize license revenues when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection of the related receivables is probable, delivery of the license has occurred and the customer has accepted the license (including the expiration of an acceptance period) if the terms of the contract include an acceptance requirement. Licenses are considered delivered once a license agreement has been entered into between the customer and the Company. Actual access to the software, due to the web nature of the software, is provided upon a mutually agreed schedule but the license fee is due at the time of conveyance and is not contingent upon the customer providing the hardware, staff for training or scheduling conflicts in general. Training and installation are included in the license fee and can be delivered at any time after the license has been conveyed. A portion of the year one license revenue and any subsequent years licenses are amortized on an annual basis commensurate with the start of the license agreement and then each subsequent anniversary date of the license and is recognized generally in 12 periods (months) per year. In the event that we grant a customer the right to specified upgrades and vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for such upgrades, value to the customer is determined on a stand-alone basis and there is objective and reliable evidence of fair value of the undelivered elements. Professional services and other revenues, when sold with subscription and support offerings, are accounted for separately until we have delivered the specified upgrade or additional service. If professional services are essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement, we defer recognition of revenue until we have satisfied our professional services obligations. To date, professional services have not been essential to the functionality of the other elements, and thus have been accounted for separately. |

| NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) |
| d. | Revenue Recognition (Continued) |
| We consider a non-cancelable agreement signed by the customer and us to be evidence of an arrangement. Delivery is considered to occur when media containing the licensed programs is provided to a common carrier, or the customer is given electronic access to the licensed software. Our typical end user license agreements do not contain acceptance clauses. We consider the fee to be fixed or determinable if the fee is not subject to refund or adjustment. If the fee is not fixed or determinable, we recognize revenue as the amounts become due and payable. Probable assurance of collection is based upon our assessment of the customer’s financial condition through review of their current financial statements or credit reports. Additional consideration is given to the type of customer. Most of our customers are government or quasi-government agencies and are thus considered low collection risk although payments could take as long as 12 months to be brought current by the customer due to the slow pay nature of such entities. Late payments and interest can be assessed based on unpaid balances on a monthly basis. Contracts do not include Rights of Return. They do include cancellation clauses available to both parties for material breaches of contracts. |
| For follow-on sales to existing customers, prior payment history is also used to evaluate probability of collection. If we determine that collection is not probable, we will defer the revenue and recognize the revenue upon cash collection. When our software licenses contain multiple elements, we allocate revenue to each element based on the relative fair values of the elements. Multiple element arrangements generally include post-contract support (PCS or maintenance), software products, and end-user subscriptions with billings recorded as received and in some cases, other professional services. Revenue from multiple-element arrangements is allocated to undelivered elements of the arrangement, such as PCS, based on the relative fair values of the elements specific to us. Our determination of fair value of each element in multi-element arrangements is based on vendor-specific objective evidence, which is generally determined by sales of the individual element to third parties or by reference to a renewal rate specified in the related arrangement. |
| Where vendor-specific objective evidence of fair-value exists for all undelivered elements, but evidence does not exist for one or more delivered elements, we account for the delivered elements in accordance with the Residual Method prescribed by SOP 98-9. Under the residual method, the fair value of the undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee is recognized as revenue. In most cases, the bundled multiple elements include PCS and the software product. In such cases, when vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value exists for all of the undelivered elements (most commonly PCS), the residual or remaining amount is recognized as revenue and the PCS is recognized ratably over the PCS term, which is typically 12 months. |

| d. | Revenue Recognition (Continued) |
| Revenues from professional services consist of training and implementation services. Training revenues are recognized as the services are performed. Professional services are not considered essential to the functionality of the other elements of the arrangement and are accounted for as a separate element. Professional services are recognized as the services are performed for time and materials contracts or upon achievement of milestones on fixed price contracts. A provision for estimated losses on fixed-price professional services contracts is recognized in the period in which the loss becomes known. |
| Deferred revenues include amounts billed to customers for which revenue has not yet been recognized that generally results from deferred maintenance, consulting or training services not yet rendered and license revenue deferred until all requirements under SOP 97-2 are met. Deferred revenue is recognized upon delivery of our products, as services are rendered, or as other requirements requiring deferral under SOP 97-2 are satisfied. |
| Our licenses for the state of California for each regional office are sold for $50,000 each for the first year. The Company recognizes 65% of the license fee or $32,500 as revenue upon the activation of the license by a regional office. The balance of 35% is amortized on a straight line basis over a one year period. During the year ended December 31, 2004 we activated 33 licenses for regional offices. |
| Our licenses for the Corporate Affairs Commission (Government of Nigeria) consisted of the following: 1) 1st year license fee of a 5 year term effective from June 1, 2004 to June 1, 2005 for $250,000. Of this amount $162,500 was recognized upon the activation of the license and the balance of $87,500 is being amortized on a straight line basis over the 1 year period. 2) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses at $6.00 per business per month for a period of three (3) months total invoice of $630,000. All of this revenue was recognized in the period of June 1, 2004 to September 1, 2004. 3) A subscription fee for 35,000 businesses for the next three months which is being recognized on a straight line basis for the period from September 2004 to November 1, 2004 total invoice of $840,000, and 4) a subscription fee for 35,000 businesses for the six months ended June 1, 2005. The invoice was for $1,260,000 of which $210,000 was recognized for December 2004 and the balance of $1,020,000 is deferred for 2005. In the period of January 1, 2005 to March 31, 2005, $630,000 was recognized on the balance of |

| $1,020,000 that was deferred the prior period, leaving a deferred balance of around $390,000, which will be recognized in the 2nd quarter for the balance of the contract. There was also $22,055 from the invoicing of the 1 year license which was also recognized in the period ending March 31, 2005, leaving a deferred balance of $20,136 which will be recognized in the 2nd quarter for the balance of the contract. |
| Our license fee for the organization, Buzgate for the first year contract was $100,000. The Company recognizes 65% of the license fee or $65,000 as revenue upon the activation of the agreement. The balance of 35% is amortized on a straight line basis over a one year period. This contract will be finance by the Company. Per the contract the Company will receive 60% instead of the standard 30% of all Subscription Fees from here on. |
| Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and Sales Returns |
| We maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts and a sales return allowance to reduce amounts to their estimated realizable value. A considerable amount of judgment is required when we assess the realization of accounts receivables, including assessing the probability of collection and the current credit-worthiness of each customer. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in an impairment of their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts may be required. We initially record a provision for doubtful accounts based on our historical experience, and then adjust this provision at the end of each reporting period based on a detailed assessment of our accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts. In estimating the provision for doubtful accounts, we consider (i) the type of entity (government, commercial, retail) and the aging of the accounts receivable; (ii) trends within and ratios involving the age of the accounts receivable; (iii) the customer mix in each of the aging categories and the nature of the receivable, such as whether it derives from license, professional services or maintenance revenue; (iv) our historical provision for doubtful accounts; (v) the credit worthiness of the customer; and (vi) the economic conditions of the customers industry, whether the entity is government, as well as general economic conditions, among other factors. |
| Should any of these factors change, the estimates that we make may also change, which could impact our future provision for doubtful accounts. For example, if the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, affecting their ability to make payments, an additional provision for doubtful accounts could be required. |
| The Company records the values for the common stock issuances based on the closing prices of the common stock on the date of authorization for services, extinguishments of debt, or any other consideration other than cash. From time to time, the Company will enter the equity market and raise cash from unaffiliated 3rd party investors. These issuances are valued at the cash prices that the Company is able to sell the stock for. |

| NOTE 5 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
| The Company in April 2005 made a settlement agreement with American Express for payment of $53,000 of the $105,000 owed, which has been paid and forgiveness of the balance has been recorded under “Gain on Release of Debt”. |
| On September 7, 2004, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Redwood Consultants, LLC. As consideration for the consulting agreement, the Company granted 325,000 warrants exercisable at $0.55 per warrant, 325,000 warrants exercisable at $0.75 per warrant, 325,000 warrants exercisable at $1.00 per warrant and 500,000 warrants exercisable at $1.75 per warrant. The Company calculated the fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes fair value model and determined that the fair value of the warrants was $216,366.

| The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred cumulative operating losses through March 31, 2005 of $2,721,978. Revenues had not been sufficient to cover its operating costs and to allow it to continue as a going concern. The potential proceeds from the sale of common stock, other contemplated debt and equity financing, and increases in operating revenues from new development would enable the Company to continue as a going concern. There can be no assurance that the Company can or will be able to complete any debt or equity financing.

Item 28. Undertakings
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement during any period in which offers or sales are being made:
| (i) to include any Prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
| (ii) to reflect in the Prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually, or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) ((S)230.424(b) of this Chapter) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement; and
|
| (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement of any material change to such information in the Registration Statement. |
(2) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of this offering.
(3) To provide to the Underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriter to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
(4) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and this offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(5) That, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising from the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(6) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of Prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or Rule 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective.
