NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Alternet Systems Inc. (“Alternet” or the “Company”) designs, markets and sells proprietary software and hardware systems known as “SchoolWeb” and “CommunityWeb”. The Company’s products provide high speed Internet access to schools and rural communities, in North America and internationally. The Company also provides Voice over IP services, primarily in Latin America.
The Company was incorporated on June 26, 2000 in the State of Nevada as North Pacific Capital Corp. and was organized for the purpose of creating a corporate vehicle to locate and acquire an operating business. On December 19, 2001, the Company changed its name to Schoolweb Systems Inc. and on May 14, 2002 the Company changed its name to Alternet Systems Inc. (“Alternet” or the “Company”). On November 6, 2000, the Company filed a Form 10SB registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and as a result is subject to the regulations governing reporting issuers in the United States. On March 14, 2003, the Company was listed for quotation on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board.
By agreement entered into December 31, 2007, Alternet issued 4,000,000 shares of restricted common stock to the shareholders of TekVoice Communications, Inc., a Company incorporated on May 17, 2002 in the State of Florida, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of TekVoice Communications, Inc. (refer to note 6).
The acquisition resulted in the former shareholders of TekVoice Communications, Inc. acquiring 38.92% of the then outstanding shares of the Company and has been accounted for as a reverse merger with TekVoice Communications, Inc., the legal subsidiary, being treated as the accounting parent and Alternet, the legal parent, being treated as the accounting subsidiary. Accordingly, the consolidated results of operations of the Company include those of TekVoice Communications, Inc. for all periods shown and those of Alternet since the date of the reverse acquisition.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-QSB of Regulation S-B. They may not include all information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2007 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-KSB filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The interim unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-KSB. In the opinion of Management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2008.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. At March 31, 2008 the Company had a working capital deficiency of $486,856. The Company’s continued operations are dependent on the successful implementation of its business plan, its ability to obtain additional financing as needed, continued support from creditors, settling its outstanding debts and ultimately attaining profitable operations.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AI Systems Group, Inc., AI Systems Group (Canada) Ltd. and TekVoice Communications, Inc.. All significant intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements are a continuation of the financial statements of TekVoice Communications, Inc. and accordingly reflect the operations of TekVoice for the comparative quarter ended March 31, 2007 and the results of TekVoice and Alternet for the quarter ended March 31, 2008.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments, with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents.
Equipment
Fixed assets are recorded at cost and depreciated at the following rates:
Computer equipment and software | - | 30% declining balance basis |
Equipment | - | 20% declining balance basis |
Impairment of Long lived Assets
Management monitors the recoverability of long-lived assets based on estimates using factors such as current market value, future asset utilization, and future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from its investment or use of the related assets. The Company’s policy is to record any impairment loss in the period when it is determined that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Any impairment loss is calculated as the excess of the carrying value over estimated realizable value.
Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized when title transfers or services are rendered. Telecommunications services are billed at the end of the month the services are provided.
Foreign Currency Translation
The financial statements are presented in United States dollars. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 52, “Foreign Currency Translation”, foreign denominated monetary assets and liabilities are translated to their United States dollar equivalents using foreign exchange rates which prevailed at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the year. Related translation adjustments are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ deficit, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
In accordance with the requirements of SFAS No. 107, the Company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The fair value of financial instruments classified as current assets or liabilities approximate carrying value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under a method, which requires the Company to recognize deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statements carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates. The Company presently prepares its tax returns on the cash basis and financial statement on the accrual basis. No deferred tax assets or liabilities have been recognized at this time, since the Company has shown losses for both tax and financial reporting.
Stock-Based Compensation
Prior to January 1, 2006, the Company accounted for stock-based awards under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion (“APB”) No. 25,“Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” using the intrinsic value method of accounting, under which compensation expense was only recognized if the exercise price of the Company’s employee stock options was less than the market price of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123R“Share Based Payments”, using the modified prospective transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost is recognized for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of January 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, and compensation cost for all share-based payments granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123R. Results for prior periods have not been restated.

March 31, 2008 |
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
All transactions in which goods or services are the consideration received for the issuance of equity instruments are accounted for based on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instrument issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. Equity instruments issued to employees and the cost of the services received as consideration are measured and recognized based on the fair value of the equity instruments issued.
Loss per Share
The Company computes net earnings (loss) per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share”. SFAS No. 128 requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share (EPS) on the face of the statement of operations. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period including warrants using the treasury stock method. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. As the Company has net losses, we did not include common equivalent shares in the computation of diluted net loss per share because the effect would be anti-dilutive.
For the purpose of computing earnings per share in which a reverse takeover occurs and for the year for which comparative statements are presented, the number of shares outstanding for the period from the beginning of the fiscal year to the date of the reverse takeover is the number of shares issued by the Company to the shareholders of TekVoice Communications, Inc., the legal subsidiary. For the period from the date of the reverse takeover to the end of the fiscal year, the number of shares used in the calculation of the earnings per share is the actual number of shares of the Company’s outstanding in that period. The earnings per share for the comparative period are computed by dividing the earnings (loss) of TekVoice Communications, Inc. by the number of shares of the Company’s issued in the reverse takeover transactions.
Risk Management
The Company is exposed to credit risk through accounts receivable and therefore, the Company maintains adequate provisions for potential credit losses.
The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar. The Company operates in foreign jurisdictions, giving rise to exposure to market risks from changes in foreign currency rates. The financial risk is the risk to the Company's operations that arises from fluctuations in foreign exchange rates and the degree of volatility of these rates. Currently, the Company does not use derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to foreign currency risk.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2007, The FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007),Business Combination, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The standard requires the acquiring entity in a business combination to recognize all (and only) the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the transaction; establishes the acquisition-date fair value as the measurement objective for all assets acquired and liabilities assumed; and requires the acquirer to disclose to investors and other users all of the information they need to evaluate and understand the nature and financial effect of the business combination. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s reported financial position or results of operations.
In December 2007, The FASB issued SFAS No. 160,Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. The statement requires all entities to report noncontrolling or minority interests in subsidiaries in the same way as equity in the consolidated financial statements. Moreover, the Statement eliminates the diversity that currently exists in accounting for transactions between an entity and noncontrolling interests by requiring they be treated as equity transactions. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s reported financial position or results of operations.
In March 2008, The FASB issued SFAS No.161,Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. The statement amends and expands the disclosure requirements of Statement 133 and requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s reported financial position or results of operations.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
In May 2008, The FASB issued SFAS No.162,The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411. This statement identifies the sources of accounting principles and framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United states, the GAAP hierarchy. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s reported financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURE NOTES
On February 4, 2008, the Company issued a note payable in the amount of $50,000. The note carries interest at the rate of 8% per annum and is due on May 4, 2008. If the note is not repaid on maturity or in any other event of default, the holder is entitled to convert all or any portion of the original principal face value of the note into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion value equal to 50% of the average market price of the Company’s stock for the 30 days prior to the date of conversion.
On February 13, 2008, the Company issued a note payable in the amount of $50,000. The note carries interest at the rate of 8% per annum and is due on May 13, 2008. If the note is not repaid on maturity or in any other event of default, the holder is entitled to convert all or any portion of the original principal face value of the note into shares of common stock of the Company at a conversion value equal to 50% of the average market price of the Company’s stock for the 30 days prior to the date of conversion.
The Company accounts for debt with embedded conversion features and warrant issues in accordance with EITF 98-5: Accounting for convertible securities with beneficial conversion features or contingency adjustable conversion and EITF No. 00-27: Application of issue No 98-5 to certain convertible instruments. Conversion features determined to be beneficial to the holder are valued at fair value and recorded to additional paid in capital. The Company determines the fair value to be ascribed to the detachable warrants issued with the convertible debentures utilizing theBlack-Scholes method. Any discount derived from determining the fair value to the debenture conversion features and warrants is amortized to financing cost over the life of the debenture. The unamortized costs if any, upon the conversion of the warrants is expensed to financing cost on a pro rata basis over the life of the warrant.
Debt issue with the variable conversion features are considered to be embedded derivatives and are accountable in accordance with FASB 133; Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The fair value of the embedded derivative is recorded to derivative liability. This liability is required to be marked each reporting period. The resulting discount on the debt is amortized to interest expense over the life of the related debt.
NOTE 4 – CAPITAL STOCK
The Company has 100,000,000 shares of Common Stock authorized, of which 62,781,428 shares of Common Stock were outstanding as at December 27, 2007. On December 27, 2007, the Company held its annual and special meeting of shareholders, at which the Company’s shareholders approved a special resolution authorizing a share consolidation of the issued and outstanding common shares on the basis of a ratio of ten existing common shares for one new consolidated common share. After this consolidation, the Company had 6,278,146 outstanding shares. The amendment did not change the total authorized number of shares of capital stock. The par value of the Common Stock remained unchanged at $0.00001 per share. As a result, as of the effective date, the stated capital attributable to the Common Stock on the Company’s balance sheet was reduced proportionately based on the reverse stock split ratio of 10 for 1. The additional paid in capital account has been credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. On December 31, 2007, the Company issued an additional 4,000,000 shares for the acquisition of TekVoice Communications, Inc. (refer to note 7). After this acquisition, the total issued and outstanding shares of common stock as at December 31, 2007 were 10,278,146.
Effective January 29, 2008, the Company adopted a Retainer Stock Plan for Professional and Consultants (the “2008 Professional/Consultant Stock Compensation Plan”) for the purpose of providing the Company with the means to compensate, in the form of common stock of the Company, eligible consultants that have previously rendered services or that will render services during the term of this 2008 Professional/Consultant Stock Compensation Plan. A total of 6,000,000 post consolidated common shares may be awarded under this plan. The Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-8 to register the underlying shares included in the 2008 Plan. To date, 5,325,000 common shares valued at $133,125 relating to services provided have been awarded, leaving a balance of 675,000 shares which maybe awarded under this plan.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2008 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31 2007
Net Sales
For the three months ended March 31 2008, the Company had sales of $379,805 compared to sales of $71,102 for the corresponding period in 2007. This represents an 82% increase in sales over the period ending March 31 2007 and was primarily due to the launch of the distribution program to sell the prepaid products from its subsidiary TekVoice Communications, Inc.
Gross Profit
Gross profit was ($7,282) in the three months ended March 31, 2008 compared to $41,187 for the three months ended March 31, 2007. This represents a decrease of $48,469 and was due to an increase in the direct cost of sales of the Company’s VOIP telecom product in the quarter ending March 31, 2008.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
For the three months ended March 31 2008, the Company had office and general expenses of $13,587, marketing expenses of $31,057, management and consulting fees of $200,543, and professional fees of $62,899.
For the corresponding period in 2007 the Company incurred office and general expenses of $335; marketing expenses of $6,260; management and consulting fees of $675,437; and nil professional fees. The Company paid $23,764 in rent in the three months ended March 31 2008, a $23,764 increase over the same period in 2007, which was nil.
Office and general expenses increased $13,252 compared to the corresponding period in 2007. Marketing expense increased 80% this period, compared to the corresponding period in 2007, and is a result of increased activity in marketing the SchoolWeb and electronic transaction products internationally. Professional fees increased by $62,899 in the current period compared to the corresponding period ending March 31 2007, due to fees incurred in the acquisition of TekVoice.
Management and consulting expense decreased 70% to $200,543 for the three months ended March 31 2007, compared to $675,437 in the corresponding period in 2007. The decrease was due to a decrease in management fees billed to the Company during the period ending March 31 2008 compared to the prior period ending March 31 2007, which had accrued management fees paid during the period ending March 31 2007.
Accounts payable were $444,820 at March 31, 2008. This was a 11% increase when compared to accounts payable of $394,095 at March 31 2007.
Net Loss
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company had a net loss of $522,789 or $(0.03) per share, which was a decrease of 18.29% when compared to the net loss for the corresponding period to March 31 2007 of $639,790 or $(0.07) per share. The decreased loss was due primarily to a decrease in accrued management consulting expenses, which was partially offset by an increase in the direct cost of sales of the Company’s VOIP telecom products.
Interest and other expenses
For the three months ended March 31, 2008, the Company incurred interest expenses of $60,988 resulting from the issuance of convertible debenture notes during this period. This amount is reported as Financing Costs on the Statement of Loss.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company had current assets and cash on hand of $10,205 as at March 31 2008. The Company also had a net loss of $522,789 during the three months ended March 31 2008.
The net loss of $522,789 was a decrease of 18.29% when compared to a loss of $639,790 in the corresponding three months ended March 31 2007. The decreased net loss was primarily due to a decrease in management expenses which was partially offset by a increase in direct cost of sales. The Company had a working capital deficiency of $486,856 at March 31 2008. Management of the Company has determined that the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on maintaining low expense levels, raising additional capital and achieving increased sales.
Management can give no assurance that any sales will occur in the future and if they do occur, may not be enough to cover the Company’s operating expenses or any other costs. Should this be the case, we would be forced, unless sufficient working capital can be raised, to suspend operations and possibly liquidate the assets and wind up and dissolve the Company.
RISK FACTORS
The Company is exposed to a number of risks, including the following:
- The Company may be unable to market and sell its software and sales of its telecommunications products could decline;
- The Company has a history of operating its software business at a significant loss;
- The Company requires additional equity financing to continue operations and may be unable to obtain this financing;
- If further equity financing is obtained, it will dilute the value of existing shareholders’ stock;
- The Company has limited working capital with which to continue operations;
- The telecom and software industries are extremely competitive and the Company faces competition from more established distributors and producers with greater financial resources and established sales and distribution capabilities;
- The Company has a significant number of shares outstanding which may be eligible for resale under Rule 144 and which, if sold, could depress the market price of the Company’s shares;
- The profit margins in the telecom industry have been steadily eroding such that, even if it is able to make sales for its products, the Company may be unable to do so at a profitable margin.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. The standard requires companies to provide additional information that will help investors and other users of financial statements to more easily understand the effect of the company’s choice to use fair value on its earnings. It also requires entities to display the fair value of those assets and liabilities for which the company has chosen to use fair value on the face of the balance sheet. The new Statement does not eliminate disclosure requirements included in other accounting standards, including requirements for disclosures about fair value measurements included in FASB Statements No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, and No. 107, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. This standard is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s reported financial position or results of operations.
