Summary
Movito Holdings Ltd.
We were incorporated on September 25, 2002 under the laws of the State of Nevada. Our principal offices are located at 750 West Pender Street, Suite 804, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, V6C 2T8. Our telephone number is 604-682-8468. All financial information located throughout this prospectus is in U.S. dollars in conformity with our audited financial statements.
Through our subsidiary, 657333 B.C. Ltd., we are engaged in cash transaction processing and monitoring services to the retail sector in connection with automated teller machines (“ATMs”). We currently have four service and management agreements with retail operators whereby ATMs have been installed in their business locations. We also have a cash transaction processing agreement with Calypso Canada Inc. that allows our retail clients to process their ATM transactions through different electronic fund transfer networks such as Interac, Cirrus and Plus Exchange. We earn revenue by retaining a portion of service fees charged on cash withdrawals from the ATMs.
On October 22, 2003, we entered into an asset purchase agreement with Net Cash Services Inc. to purchase certain assets from Net Cash Services, Inc. Specifically, the assets included ATM service and management agreements with four retail operators in the Vancouver area. In consideration of these assets, we issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock in our capital at a deemed price of $0.001 per share to Mr. Nasir Verjee, the owner of Net Cash Services Inc.

Risk Factors
An investment in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below before investing in our common stock. If any of the following risks occur, our business, operating results and financial condition could be seriously harmed.
WE WILL REQUIRE ADDITIONAL FINANCING TO ACHIEVE EXPANSION OF OUR BUSINESS OPERATIONS, OUR BUSINESS MAY FAIL.
As of December 31, 2002, we had cash on hand of $39,983. While we have generated revenue from ATM transaction fees, such funds do not cover our ongoing general and administrative expenses. Our business plan calls for ongoing expenses in connection with the execution of additional ATM service agreements. Our current cash on hand is less than necessary to complete this plan.
Presently, we incur approximately $2,390 per month in general and administrative expenses. In order to expand our business operations, we anticipate that we will have to raise additional funding. If we are not able to raise the funds necessary to fund our business expansion objectives, we may have to delay the implementation of our business plan.
We do not currently have any arrangements for financing and we can provide no assurance to investors that we will be able to find such financing if required. Obtaining additional financing would be subject to a number of factors, including general
market conditions, investor acceptance of our business plan and investor sentiment. These factors may make the timing, amount, terms or conditions of additional financing unavailable to us. The most likely source of future funds presently available to us is through the sale of equity capital.
BECAUSE WE ARE A DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE COMPANY WHICH HAS ONLY RECENTLY COMMENCED BUSINESS OPERATIONS, WE FACE A HIGH RISK OF BUSINESS FAILURE.
We are a development stage company which was incorporated on September 25, 2002 and to date have been involved primarily in organizational activities and the acquisition of business assets. We have not earned significant revenues as of the date of this prospectus and have incurred total losses of $10,042 from our incorporation on September 25, 2002 to December 31, 2002.
Accordingly, you can evaluate our business, and therefore our future prospects, based only on a limited operating history. Potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by companies and the high rate of failure of such enterprises.
OUR AUDITORS HAVE RAISED SUBSTANTIAL DOUBT AS TO OUR CONTINUANCE AS A GOING CONCERN WHICH MAY MAKE IT DIFFICULT FOR US TO RAISE ADDITIONAL DEBT OR EQUITY FINANCING
Our business condition, as indicated in the audit report of Labonte & Co., Chartered Accountants, raises substantial doubt as to our continuance as a going concern. To date, we have completed only part of our business plan and we can provide no assurance that we will be able to generate enough revenue from our cash transaction processing business in order to achieve profitability. It is not possible at this time for us to predict with assurance the potential success of our business. This report may make it more difficult for us to raise additional debt or equity financing which is needed for us to operate and expand our business.
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO HIRE AND RETAIN KEY PERSONNEL, THEN WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO IMPLEMENT OUR BUSINESS PLAN
We depend on the services of our senior management for the future success of our business. In particular, our success depends on the continued efforts of our president, Jamie Cirotto, and our subsidiary’s director, Nasir Verjee, both of whom have experience in the banking and cash transaction processing sectors. The loss of the services of Mr. Cirotto or Mr. Nasir could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, our success in expanding our business operations is largely dependent on our ability to hire highly qualified sales personnel in Vancouver and other cities. In addition, we may lose employees or consultants that we hire due to higher salaries and fees being offered by competitors or other businesses in the banking and finance industries. Our failure to retain our current personnel and/or hire additional employees as need, may force us to curtail our business operations.
BECAUSE OUR DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS COLLECTIVELY OWN 69.87% OF OUR OUTSTANDING COMMON STOCK, THEY WILL MAKE AND CONTROL CORPORATE DECISIONS THAT MAY BE DISADVANTAGEOUS TO MINORITY SHAREHOLDERS.
Mr. Jamies Cirotto and Mr. Mario Aiello, our officers, as well as Mr. Nasir Verjee, a director of our subsidiary, collectively own approximately 69.87% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. Accordingly, they will have significant influence in determining the outcome of all corporate transactions or other matters, including mergers, consolidations and the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. The interests of these individuals may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are disadvantageous to other shareholders.
IF A MARKET FOR OUR COMMON STOCK DOES NOT DEVELOP, SHAREHOLDERS MAY BE UNABLE TO SELL THEIR SHARES.
There is currently no market for our common stock and we can provide no assurance that a market will develop. We currently plan to have a market maker apply forlisting of our common stock on the NASD Over The Counter Bulletin Boardupon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide investors with no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize. If no market is ever developed for our shares, it will be difficult for shareholders to sell their stock. In such a case, shareholders may find that they are unable to achieve benefits from their investment.
AN INVESTOR IN OUR COMMON STOCK IS PURCHASING PENNY STOCK WHICH LIMITS THE ABILITY TO SELL THE STOCK.
The shares offered by this prospectus constitute penny stock under the Securities and Exchange Act. The shares will remain penny stock for the foreseeable future. “Penny stock” rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell such securities to persons other than established customers and accredited investors, that is, generally those with assets in excess of $1,000,000 or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with a spouse. For transactions covered by these rules, the broker-dealer must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such securities and have received the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt, the rules require the delivery, prior to the transaction, of a disclosure schedule prescribed by the Commission relating to the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information on the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, the “penny stock” rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our shares of common stock. The market price of our shares would likely suffer as a result.
Forward-Looking Statements
This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. We use words such as anticipate, believe, plan, expect, future, intend and similar expressions to identify such forward-looking statements. You should not place too much reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our actual results are most likely to differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risks faced by us described in the this Risk Factors section and elsewhere in this prospectus.
Currency Exchange Between United States and Canadian Dollars
While our consolidated financial statements are reported in United States dollars, a significant portion of our business operations are conducted in Canadian dollars. In order to provide you with a better understanding of these operations discussed in the section entitle “Description of Business”, we provide the following summary regarding historical exchange rates between these currencies:
Since June 1, 1970, the government of Canada has permitted a floating exchange rate to determine the value of the Canadian dollar as compared to the United States dollar. On January 10, 2003, the exchange rate in effect for Canadian dollars exchanged for United States dollars, expressed in terms of Canadian dollars was 1.5478. This exchange rate is based on the noon buying rates in New York City for cable transfers in Canadian dollars, as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. For the past six full calendar months, the following exchange rates were in effect for Canadian dollars exchanged for United States dollars, calculated in the same manner as above:
| Time Period | Low - High | |
| | | |
| Month ended July 31, 2002 | $1.5145 - $1.5880 | |
| Month ended August 31, 2002 | $1.5523 - $1.5963 | |
| Month ended September 30, 2002 | $1.5545 - $1.5863 | |
| Month ended October 31, 2002 | $1.5607 - $1.5943 | |
| Month ended November 30, 2002 | $1.5528 - $1.5904 | |
| Month ended December 31, 2002 | $1.5478 - $1.5800 | |
Use Of Proceeds
We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock offered through this prospectus by the selling shareholders.
Determination Of Offering Price
The offering price was arbitrarily determined by us based upon the price shares were sold to our shareholders in the most recent Regulation S offering.
Dilution
The common stock to be sold by the selling shareholders in this Registration Statement is common stock that is currently issued and outstanding. Accordingly, there will be no dilution to our existing shareholders.
Selling Shareholders
The selling shareholders named in this prospectus are offering all of the 1,940,776 shares of common stock offered through this prospectus. These shares were acquired from us in two private placements in 2002. 1,500,000 shares held by selling security holders were sold to 6 investors on October 3, 2002 pursuant to an exemption from registration at Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and are restricted shares as defined in the Securities Act. The additional 440,776 shares of our common stock was sold to 33 investors in an offering ended on December 31, 2002 and exempt from registration under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933.
The following table provides as of March 17, 2003, information regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock held by each of the selling shareholders, including:

The named parties beneficially own and have sole voting and investment power over all shares or rights to these shares. The numbers in this table assume that none of the selling shareholders sells shares of common stock not being offered in this prospectus or purchases additional shares of common stock, and assumes that all shares offered are sold. The percentages are based on 6,440,776 shares of common stock outstanding on March 17 , 2003.
It is possible that the selling shareholders may not sell all of the securities being offered.
None of the selling shareholders:
(1 | ) | has had a material relationship with us other than as a shareholder at any time within the past three years; or |
| | |
(2 | ) | has ever been one of our officers or directors. |
Plan Of Distribution
The selling shareholders may sell some or all of their common stock in one or more transactions, including block transactions:
1 | . | On such public markets or exchanges as the common stock may from time to time be trading; |
2 | . | In privately negotiated transactions; |
3 | . | Through the writing of options on the common stock; |
4 | . | In short sales; or |
5 | . | In any combination of these methods of distribution. |
The sales price to the public may be:
1 | . | The market price prevailing at the time of sale; |
2 | . | A price related to such prevailing market price; or |
3 | . | Such other price as the selling shareholders determine from time to time. |
The selling shareholders are required to sell our shares at $0.10 per share until our shares are quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, and thereafter at prevailing market prices or privately negotiated prices. The shares may also be sold in compliance with the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Rule 144.
The selling shareholders may also sell their shares directly to market makers acting as principals or brokers or dealers, who may act as agent or acquire the common stock as a principal. Any broker or dealer participating in such transactions as agent may receive a commission from the selling shareholders, or, if they act as agent for the purchaser of such common stock, from such purchaser. The selling shareholders will likely pay the usual and customary brokerage fees for such services. Brokers or dealers may agree with the selling shareholders to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share and, to the extent such broker or dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for the selling shareholders, to purchase, as principal, any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the respective broker’s or dealer’s commitment to the selling shareholders. Brokers or dealers who acquire shares as principals may thereafter resell such shares from time to time in transactions in a market or on an exchange, in negotiated transactions or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale or at negotiated prices, and in connection with such re-sales may pay or receive commissions to or from the purchasers of such shares. These transactions may involve cross and block transactions that may involve sales to and through other brokers or dealers. If applicable, the selling shareholders may distribute shares to one or more of their partners who are unaffiliated with us. Such partners may, in turn, distribute such shares as described above. We can provide no assurance that all or any of the common stock offered will be sold by the selling shareholders.
We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock. We estimate that the expenses of the offering to be paid by us on behalf of the selling shareholders is $17,500. The selling shareholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the common stock.
The selling shareholders must comply with the requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act in the offer and sale of the common stock. In particular, during such times as the selling shareholders may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, they must comply with applicable law and may, among other things:
1 | . | Not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with our common stock; |
| | |
2 | . | Furnish each broker or dealer through which common stock may be offered, such copies of this prospectus, as amended from time to time, as may be required by such broker or dealer; and |
| | |
3 | . | Not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Securities Exchange Act. |
The Securities Exchange Commission has also adopted rules that regulate broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in penny stocks. Penny stocks are generally equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on certain national securities exchanges or quoted on the Nasdaq system, provided that current price and volume information with respect to transactions in such securities is provided by the exchange or system).
The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules, deliver a standardized risk disclosure document prepared by the Commission, which:
- contains a description of the nature and level of risk in the market for penny stocks in both public offerings and secondary trading;
- contains a description of the broker's or dealer's duties to the customer and of the rights and remedies available to the customer with respect to a violation to such duties or other requirements of
- contains a brief, clear, narrative description of a dealer market, including "bid" and "ask" prices for penny stocks and the significance of the spread between the bid and ask price;
- contains a toll-free telephone number for inquiries on disciplinary actions;
- defines significant terms in the disclosure document or in the conduct of trading penny stocks; and
- contains such other information and is in such form (including language, type, size, and format) as the Commission shall require
- by rule or regulation;
The broker-dealer also must provide, prior to effecting any transaction in a penny stock, the customer:
- with bid and offer quotations for the penny stock;
- the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction;
- the number of shares to which such bid and ask prices apply, or other comparable information relating to the depth and liquidity of the market for such stock; and
- monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer's account.
In addition, the penny stock rules require that prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from those rules; the broker-dealer must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written acknowledgment of the receipt of a risk disclosure statement, a written agreement to transactions involving penny stocks, and a signed and dated copy of a written suitability statement. These disclosure requirements will have the effect of reducing the trading activity in the secondary market for our stock because it will be subject to these penny stock rules. Therefore, stockholders may have difficulty selling those securities.

Common Stock
As of March 17, 2003, there were 6,440,776 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding that were held by 41 stockholders of record.
Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share on all matters submitted to a stockholder vote. Holders of common stock do not have cumulative voting rights.

Holders of our common stock representing a majority of the voting power of our capital stock issued, outstanding and entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, are necessary to constitute a quorum at any meeting of our stockholders. A vote by the holders of a majority of our outstanding shares is required to effectuate certain fundamental corporate changes such as liquidation, merger or an amendment to our articles of incorporation. The lack of cumulative voting rights could delay, defer or prevent a change in control of the company.
Holders of common stock are entitled to share in all dividends that the board of directors, in its discretion, declares from legally available funds. In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up, each outstanding share entitles its holder to participate pro rata in all assets that remain after payment of liabilities and after providing for each class of stock, if any, having preference over the common stock.

Disclosure Of Commission Position Of Indemnification For
Securities Act Liabilities
Our directors and officers are indemnified as provided by the Nevada Revised Statutes and our bylaws. We have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable.

We will then be governed by the court’s decision.
Organization Within Last Five Years
We were incorporated on September 25, 2002 under the laws of the state of Nevada.
On October 22, 2002, we entered into an acquisition agreement whereby we acquired all of the automated teller machine related assets of Net Cash Services Inc., a private British Columbia company wholly-owned by Mr. Nasir Verjee, namely:
1. four service and management contracts with retail businesses located in the greater Vancouver, British Columbia area whereby we monitor, manage and service ATMs in their locations;
2. Electronic cash processing contract with Calypso Canada Inc. whereby Calypso agrees to process transactions between ATMs monitored by us for $0.16 per transaction and a $30.00 monthly fee per machine; and
3. the exclusive right to use the trade name "NetCash" in connection with its cash transaction processing and monitoring business.
On September 25, 2002, our date of incorporation, Jamie Cirotto and Carmelo Mamertino were appointed to our Board of Directors. On the same day Mr. Cirotto was appointed as our President and Chief Executive Officer, while Mario Aiello was appointed as our Secretary, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer.
On January 15, 2003, subsequent to the our completion of the acquisition of the principal assets of Net Cash Services Ltd., Mr. Nasir Verjee, the owner of Net Cash Services Ltd., was appointed as a director of our subsidiary.
Description Of BusinessAcquisition of Net Cash Services Inc. Assets
Pursuant to an agreement dated October 22, 2002, we acquired the following assets from Net Cash Services Inc., a private British Columbia company wholly-owned by Mr. Nasir Verjee:
| a) | four service and management agreements with businesses located in the greater Vancouver area whereby we provide cash transaction processing and monitoring services in connection with cash withdrawals made from automated teller machines ("ATMs") in their locations |
| | |
| b) | Electronic cash processing agreement with Calypso Canada Inc. whereby Calypso agrees to process transactions between ATMs monitored by the Company and ATM electronic networks for $0.16 per transaction; and |
| | |
| c) | the exclusive right to use the trade name "NetCash" in connection with its cash transaction processing and monitoring business. |
In consideration of these assets, we issued 2,000,000 shares of common stock in our capital at a deemed price of $0.001 per share to Mr. Nasir Verjee, the owner of Net Cash Services Inc. Net Cash Services Inc. was incorporated pursuant to the laws of British Columbia on March 14, 2001 with a view to pursuing business opportunities in the recently deregulated automated teller machine sector. By researching the ATM industry in Canada and the United States, Net Cash identified the potential for providing privately owned ATMs in locations that financial institutions traditionally avoided due to high purchase, installation and operating costs. Mr. Nasir Verjee, the president of Net Cash was primarily responsible for the company’s business operations. To date, Net Cash is still involved in the business of owning ATM machines. However, Net Cash does not manage these machines and therefore is not in competition with us.
ATM Service and Management Agreements
We are a development stage company involved in cash transaction processing and monitoring to the retail sector in the Vancouver, British Columbia area through the operation of automated teller machines. To date, through our subsidiary, 657333 B.C. Ltd., we have service and management agreements with four retail operators in the Vancouver area.
Pursuant to these agreements, we are responsible for overseeing the installation of the ATM, maintaining the ATM, obtaining and maintaining all necessary permits for the installation and operation of the ATM, ensuring that the ATM is operated in accordance with all applicable laws, maintaining insurance on the ATM and, in some instances, keeping the ATM supplied with sufficient cash.
The ATMs that we service are non-financial institution stand-alone cash dispensing units that are usually situated in convenient retail locations. They are most often placed in businesses that are not generally served by traditional financial institution owned ATMs. They are intended to give immediate and easy access to cash for individuals in possession of bank debit cards and credit cards. The four ATMs that we currently service are located at two nightclubs, one convenience store and one restaurant.
Typically, each retail location owns the ATM installed in its particular store and is responsible for loading cash into the machine. Through a phone line and power source, the ATMs are electronically connected to all major financial institutions through cash transaction processing agencies and networks. Once the user’s debit or credit card is inserted in the ATM and a request for a specific amount of cash is made by use of a key pad containing numbers and commands, the network verifies the validity of the user’s card and password and ensures that there are sufficient funds available in the user’s bank account necessary to process the withdrawal request. If the verifications are successful, the ATM dispenses cash to the user and the network charges service fees to the account. Consumers may withdraw cash from their personal bank accounts from the ATM in denominations of $20.00, subject to a maximum of $400.00.
Users of independently owned ATMs are often assessed two charges for using its service: the interchange fee and the surcharge fee. The interchange fee is usually $1.00 and is charged by the ATM user’s own financial institution where his or her bank account is held. The financial institution uses these funds to compensate several parties:
- Calypso Canada Inc. retains $0.16 for electronically processing the transaction between the ATM and the network used to complete the transaction. The major ATM networks are Interac, Cirrus and Plus Exchange;
- The network company typically charges about $0.25 for its services; and
- We receive the remaining $0.59 pursuant to our service and management agreement with the retail business where the ATM is located.
The second fee charged to the ATM user is the surcharge fee. This fee reflects the costs relating to the installation, maintenance, rental space and security of the ATM, and also includes a profit margin for the retail location and for us. The total surcharge fee applied to each cash withdrawal transaction differs from machine to machine. Currently, on the ATMs that we service, the surcharge fee varies from $2.00 to $2.50 per cash withdrawal. Such fees are much higher than those charged by financial institution ATMs because the independent ATMs are located in businesses where users are often willing to pay higher fees due to an urgent need for cash and a lack of alternative sources.
The entire surcharge fee is divided between the retail location and us. The portion of the surcharge that we retain is negotiated with the retail customer and depends upon variables such as ownership of the ATM, transaction volume. Of the four service and management agreements that we have executed, three provide that we receive $0.50 of this fee, while the fourth agreement provides that we receive $1.50.
The above figures are all in Canadian dollars. Refer to “Currency Exchange Between United States and Canadian Dollars” above.
We provide retail outlets with a wide range of ATM related services. We customize ATM programs for a variety of customers ranging from independent retailers looking to install a new revenue source in their business locations to large retail chains attempting to furnish customers with convenient access to cash. In order to maximize potential profits, retailers may choose to own and manage the ATM to be installed, or they may choose to have a third party own and load cash into the machine. Currently, our business strategy is to encourage retailers to purchase or lease their own ATMs in order to maximize revenue or, alternatively, to arrange for third parties to own and manage the ATMs. We chose this strategy in order to minimize our funding requirements and labor costs.
Each ATM is programmed to communicate with monitoring software that allows us to detect equipment malfunctions or the absence of cash in the ATM through a personal computer. This allows us to alert the retailer of such problems promptly in order to reduce potential revenue loss.
Future Development
From the date that we commenced operations on October 3, 2002 to December 31, 2002, we realized gross revenues of $1,791 from ATM transaction fees, and incurred related costs of $255, for net revenues of $1,536. During the same period, we incurred general and administrative expenses consisting of bank charges, consulting fees and professional fees of $11,578. As a result, net loss for the period inception to December 31, 2002 was $10,042.
In order to become profitable, we must expand our operations by executing additional ATM service and management agreements with other businesses. Initially, we will rely on our directors and officers to contact additional retailers regarding the possibility of retaining us to install and manage an ATM in their business locations. As our operations expand and we generate significant revenue, we intend to hire sales personnel for the purpose of securing additional ATM service agreements for us.
On January 10, 2003, we hired a full-time sales person to secure additional ATM service and management agreements and to manage and monitor these additional contracted ATMs. This person will receive $500 per month in compensation, as well as a one-time introduction fee for each ATM agreement that the sale person arranges for us. In addition, this person will receive fees of $250 per month for each ATM that he monitors and manages on an ongoing basis as part of this arrangement.
Sector Overview
Traditionally, in Canada, ATMs were almost exclusively located at banks, credit unions and trust companies. Due to consumer demand for convenience and accessibility to cash, ATMs have become increasingly popular in supermarkets, convenience stores, restaurants, nightclubs, gas stations and other high consumer traffic areas.
In 1984, the Interac Association was founded to create a shared ATM network to give banking customers broader access to their money. By pooling resources, Interac Association members were able to create a national electronic payments network.
In 1986, Canada’s chartered banks and other financial institutions created a shared cash dispensing system that enable customers to access cash through a wide network of ATM across the country. The system allowed users with a bank or credit card issued by any other member to access funds from their savings or checking account, or from their credit cards. In 1986, consumers made 6.2 million shared transactions. In 2001, this number had increased to 375.3 million transactions.
Interac members originally ruled that only financial institutions could be members in Canada. However, in November 1996, the Bureau of Competition Policy and the Interac Association reached a negotiated agreement whereby independent ATM owners could join or affiliate with Interac.
Retail merchants have found that their customers will use ATMs located on their premises and tend to spend part or all of the cash withdrawal at that retail location. However, some retailers have been reluctant to purchase an ATM for their business location due to their inexperience in managing an ATM and the costs related to operating an ATM.
Deregulation and the additional of surcharges in 1996 have resulted in an increase in the installation of independent ATMs. Allowing ATM surcharges has encouraged businesses from outside the banking industry to install ATMs in convenient locations where, without surcharges, ATMs would not generate enough consumer traffic to be profitable.
According to the Bank of International Settlements, Canada ranks first in the world in terms of ATM cash transactions per inhabitant. The average Canadian processed an average of 48.3 ATM cash transactions in 2000 and card users processed and average of 17 cash withdrawal trnsaction in 2000. There are more than 47 million banking machine cards and credit cards that can access the ATM cash dispensing network in the country.
Due to these factors, and the location of our current service agreements and management being Vancouver, we intend to focus our business efforts on expanding operations in this city.
Competition
The ATM business, in general, is competitive and there can be no assurance that we will be successful in generating significant revenue from its planned operations. We will compete with ATMs of all financial service companies located in Canada, as well as with a growing number of independently owned ATMs.
Financial Institutions
The Canadian ATM market is dominated by the country’s biggest chartered banks: Bank of Montreal, Royal Bank of Canada, TD Canada Trust, Bank of Nova Scotia and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce. They typically install ATMs at their branch locations, as well as high traffic retail locations such as convenience stores and gas stations.
The ATMs these banks use may cost them over $100,000 depending on the model and manufacturer of the unit. The ATMs that we employ are smaller, more portable and less expensive. They are suitable for small to medium size retail locations that the banks have ignored.
The chief competitive advantage enjoyed by the financial institutions is that they have the financial resources necessary to maintain and expand their ATM operations. In addition, they typically charge lower service fees for ATM use.
Independently Owned ATMs
We also compete with other private ATM owners and managers. Such machines account for one-third of all ATMs in Canada. However, most of our competitors attempt to maximize profits by retaining a greater percentage of the service charges. In order to encourage more retailers to execute service agreements, we intend to focus on the number of agreements rather than the percentage of the service charges retained. Thus, retailers are offered a high percentage of service charges.
Our strategy of encouraging the retailers or third parties to own the ATMs minimizes our business costs and allows us to operate on significantly less revenue than our competitors who also own the ATM machines.
Compliance with Government Regulation
The operation of independently owned ATMs is not regulated in Canada. However, many Canadian consumer groups are calling for the adoption of regulations to oversee private ATM security policies, privacy protection and consumer protection.
New laws and regulations may impact our ability to offer our services and generate revenue in the future. However, we are not aware of any pending laws or regulations that would have an impact on our business.
Employees
We have no employees as of the date of this prospectus other than our directors and officers.
Research and Development Expenditures
We have not incurred any research or development expenditures since our incorporation.
Subsidiaries
We own a 100% interest in 657333 B.C. Ltd., a private British Columbia company that conducts business under the name "NetCash". 657333 B.C. Ltd. owns the four service and management agreements and the processing agreement described under the section entitled "Description of Business". The subsidiary also owns the exclusive right to use the trade name "NetCash".
Patents and Trademarks
We do not own, either legally or beneficially, any patents or trademarks.
Plan Of Operations
Our plan of operations for the twelve months following the date of this registration statement is to expand our business by attempting to execute additional ATM service and management agreements with retail locations in the greater Vancouver, British Columbia area. Specifically, our objective is to secure at least 18 of these agreements during the next 12 months. However, we have no assurances that we will be able to reach this goal.
We intend to continue with our current business strategy of encouraging the retail customers to own and lease the ATM directly. They would also be responsible for loading the ATM with cash. Alternatively, we may introduce the retail customer to a third party that is willing to purchase and assume responsibility for maintaining the ATM. Such third parties are usually compensated from the retail location’s portion of the ATM surcharge paid by the user.
By not owing the ATMs will limit our funding requirements. Our chief costs are expected to be those we incur with sales personnel costs, general and administrative expenses and the filing of this registration statement.
Initially, our directors and officers will conduct all sales efforts. Mr. Nasir Verjee, director of our subsidiary, 657333 B.C. Ltd, was responsible for securing the four ATM service agreements that we currently have. In building our internal administrative and managerial organization, we will seek to minimize the hiring of full-time employees. With additional revenues, we plan to retain staffing levels sufficient to achieve our goals. This additional staffing may include full-time and part-time sales staff and administrative consultants. Without sufficient revenues, we will continue limiting our employees to our directors and officers.
We expect the expenses of the offering to be approximately $17,500. In addition, in connection with our proposed plan of operation, we anticipate that we will incur the following expenses per month (in U.S dollars):
| payments to management | $ | 900 | |
| and sales staff | | | |
| office rent | $ | 200 | |
| computer, office equipment and supplies | $ | 200 | |
| telephone | $ | 100 | |
| general administrative | $ | 250 | |
| | | | |
| Total per month | $ | 1,650 | |
In addition, to the above monthly expenses, we expect to incur the following expenses, per month, for compliance with future filing requirements under the Securities Act of 1933 (in U.S dollars):
| Accounting and Auditing Fees | $ | 500 | |
| Legal Fees | $ | 500 | |
| EDGAR Fees | $ | 150 | |
| Other Administrative Fees | $ | 100 | |
| TOTAL PER MONTH | $ | 1,250 | |
The foregoing represents our best estimate of our cash needs based on current planning and business conditions. In the event we are not successful in generating significant revenue from our operations, additional funds may be required in order for us to proceed with our business plan to execute additional ATM service and management agreements. In such circumstances, we
would likely seek additional financing to support the continued operation of our business. We have no such financing arranged at the present time and no guarantee that we will be able to secure such financing.
We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we could incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. We base this expectation, in part, on the fact that we may not be able to generate enough revenue from our ATM surcharges to cover all of our operating and administrative expenses. Our revenues will depend on how many additional ATM service and management agreements we are able to execute, as well as the frequency with which consumers use the ATMs at the various retail outlets.
Results Of Operations For Period Ending December 31, 2002
We earned revenue of $1,791 from our operations from our inception on October 3, 2002 to December 31, 2002. We incurred direct costs of $255 in connection with our cash transaction processing business, resulting in net revenue of $1,536 from operations for the period.
Our activities have been financed almost exclusively from the proceeds of share subscriptions. We do not anticipate earning significant revenues until such time as we have entered into additional ATM service and monitoring agreements with additional retail businesses. There is no assurance that we will be able to reach any additional agreements.
We incurred expenses in the amount of $11,578 for the period from inception to December 31, 2002. These consisted of $7,630 in consulting fees, $3,791 in legal and accounting fees and $157 in bank charges.
We have not attained profitable operations and are dependent upon obtaining financing to continue and to expand our existing business operations. For these reasons our auditors stated in their report that they have substantial doubt that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
At December 31, 2002, we had assets recorded at $43,573 consisting of cash of $39,983, prepaid expenses of $1,590 and the business assets that we acquired from Net Cash Services Inc. recorded at $2,000. We acquired these assets from Net Cash Services Inc. in consideration of the issuance of 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at a deemed price of $0.001 each.
Our liabilities at December 31, 2002 totaled $3,568 and consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities.
Description Of Property
Our executive offices are located at 750 West Pender Street, Suite 804, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. As part of a consulting arrangement with our Secretary, Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, Mario Aiello, he provides these premises to us at no charge.

Market For Common Equity And Related Stockholder MattersNo Public Market for Common Stock
There is presently no public market for our common stock. We anticipate applying for trading of our common stock on the over the counter bulletin board upon the effectiveness of the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part. However, we can provide no assurance that our shares will be traded on the bulletin board or, if traded, that a public market will materialize.
Stockholders of Our Common Shares
As of the date of this registration statement, we had 41 shareholders.
Rule 144 Shares
A total of 2,500,000 shares of our common stock will be available for resale to the public after October 3, 2003 in accordance with the volume and trading limitations of Rule 144 of the Act. An additional 2,000,000 shares of our common stock will be available for resale to the public after October 22, 2003 in accordance with the same limitations. In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person who has beneficially owned shares of a company’s common stock for at least one year is entitled to sell within any three month period a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of:
1 | . | 1% of the number of shares of the company's common stock then outstanding which, in our case, will equal 64,407 shares as of the date of this prospectus; or |
| | |
2 | . | the average weekly trading volume of the company's common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on form 144 with respect to the sale. |
Sales under Rule 144 are also subject to manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about the company.
Under Rule 144(k), a person who is not one of the company’s affiliates at any time during the three months preceding a sale, and who has beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years, is entitled to sell shares without complying with the manner of sale, public information, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144.
As of the date of this prospectus, persons who are our affiliates hold all of the 4,500,000 shares that will be eligible to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 as of October 22, 2003.
Stock Option Grants
To date, we have not granted any stock options.
Registration Rights
We have not granted registration rights to the selling shareholders or to any other persons. We have opted to cover the registration costs associated with this current filing absent such rights because management believes that such registration shall aid us in obtaining a public market and thereby raising additional financing for our operations.
Dividends
There are no restrictions in our articles of incorporation or bylaws that prevent us from declaring dividends. The Delaware Revised Statutes, however, do prohibit us from declaring dividends where, after giving effect to the distribution of the dividend:
1 | . | we would not be able to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; or |
| | |
2 | . | our total assets would be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus the amount that would be needed to satisfy therights of shareholders who have preferential rights superior to those receiving the distribution. |
We have not declared any dividends, and we do not plan to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future.

AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Movito Holdings Ltd.
We have audited the consolidated balance sheet ofMovito Holdings Ltd. (a development stage company) as at December 31, 2002 and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the period from October 3, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2002. 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 audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with Canadian and United States generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform an audit to obtain reasonable assurance whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows and the changes in stockholders’ equity for the period from October 3, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2002 in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

COMMENTS BY AUDITORS FOR U.S. READERS ON CANADA-UNITED STATES REPORTING DIFFERENCES
In the United States, reporting standards for auditors would require the addition of an explanatory paragraph following the opinion paragraph when the financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, such as those described in Note 1. Our report to the Board of Directors and Stockholders dated January 9, 2003 is expressed in accordance with Canadian reporting standards which do not permit a reference to such conditions and events in the auditors’ report when these are adequately disclosed in the financial statements.

MOVITO HOLDINGS LTD.
(a development stage company)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2002
NOTE 1 – NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The Company has acquired four Service and Management Contracts with retail locations’ operations and one Processing Contract with a cash transaction processor for four automated teller machines (ATM’s) as well as the exclusive right to use the trade name “Netcash” in exchange for 2,000,000 restricted common shares of capital stock of the Company. The Company is planning to go public by way of a SB-2 Registration Statement to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and intends to list its shares for trading on the OTCBB.
The Company is in the initial development stage and has incurred losses since inception totalling $10,042. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital to fund future operations and ultimately to attain profitable operations. Accordingly, these factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
The Company was incorporated on September 25, 2002 in the State of Nevada and commenced operations on October 3, 2002. The Company’s fiscal year end is December 31 with its initial period being from September 25, 2002 (inception) to December 31, 2002.
Basis of presentation
These financial statements are presented in United States dollars and have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Principles of Consolidation
The financial statements include the accounts of the Company and the 100% interest in its subsidiary 657333 B.C. Ltd., doing business as Netcash, incorporated October 29, 2002. All significant intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated on consolidation.
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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.
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.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
The Company has adopted the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement No. 142, “Goodwill and Intangible Assets” (“SFAS 142”). Under SFAS 142, goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives will no longer be amortized and will be tested for impairment annually. The determination of any impairment would include a comparison of estimated future operating cash flows anticipated during the remaining life with the net carrying value of the asset as well as a comparison of the fair value to the book value of the Company or the reporting unit to which the goodwill can be attributed. Management has determined that as at December 31, 2002 no impairment of intangible assets has occurred.
Revenue recognition
The Company derives its revenue from processing fees on Automated Teller Machine (ATM) transactions. Revenues earned are for electronic processing, supervision and reporting of transactions, installation, operation, maintenance and management of ATMs. Revenues received are a percentage of total transaction fees charged by the third party cash processor.
Accordingly, the Company recognizes its revenues as the related processing services are provided.
Foreign currency transactions
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 that 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’ equity, whereas gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations.
Net Loss per Common Share
Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company. Because the Company does not have any potentially dilutive securities, the accompanying presentation is only of basic loss per share.
Stock-based compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based employee compensation arrangements in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees”, (“APB No. 25”) and complies with the disclosure provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”). Under APB No. 25, compensation expense is recognized based on the difference, if any, on the date of grant between the estimated fair value of the Company’s stock and the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. Compensation expense is recognized immediately for past services and pro-rata for future services over the option-vesting period.
The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with SFAS No. 123 and the conclusions reached by the Emerging Issues Task Force in Issue No. 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring or in Conjunction with Selling Goods or Services” (“EITF 96-18”). Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earlier of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by EITF 96-18.

DECEMBER 31, 2002
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont’d)
Income taxes
The Company follows the liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method, future tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax balances. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted or substantially enacted tax rates expected to apply to the taxable income in the years in which those differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of enactment or substantive enactment. As at December 31, 2002 the Company had net operating loss carryforwards; however, due to the uncertainty of realization the Company has provided a full valuation allowance for the deferred tax assets resulting from these loss carryforwards.
Recent accounting pronouncements
The Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101 and subsequent amendments and related releases (“SAB 101”) released during the year ended September 30, 1999 provide guidance for the recognition of revenue in financial statements. The Company has considered the guidance presented therein and believes that the Company’s practices for the recording of revenue are consistent with this guidance.
In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (“SFAS 141”), “Business Combinations”, which eliminates the pooling method of accounting for business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. In addition, SFAS 141 addresses the accounting for intangible assets and goodwill acquired in a business combination. This portion of SFAS 141 is effective for business combinations completed after June 30, 2001. The adoption of SFAS 141 does not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
NOTE 3 – INTANGIBLE ASSET PURCHASE AGREEMENT
By agreement dated October 22, 2002 between the Company and Netcash Services Inc. (“NSI”), the Company acquired a 100% interest in four Service and Management Contracts with retail locations’ operations and one Processing Contract with a cash transaction processor for four automated teller machines (ATM’s) as well as the exclusive right to use the trade name “Netcash” in exchange for (a) 2,000,000 restricted common shares of capital stock of the Company valued at $2,000; and (b) the commitment to provide a loan of up to $15,000 to its wholly owned subsidiary 657333 B.C. Ltd. The loan will have no fixed terms of repayment and should the Company be unable to provide the loan, this will not negate the terms of the asset purchase agreement.
In the first quarter of 2003, two of the initial Service and Management Contracts were cancelled and two new contracts were signed. The terms of the four management contracts currently in existence are as follows:
| (a) | Periods covered are between 5 and 10 years. |
| (b) | Fees earned vary between $1.10 and $2.60 per transaction. |
| (c) | The Company provides processing and monitoring of the cash dispensing service. |
| (d) | The contracts can be cancelled on 14 days written notice in the event of material default or, in all other cases, on 3 – 6 month’s written notice and the payment of a cancellation fee equal to 100% of the average monthly fees received from the ATM for the previous 4 months multiplied by the number of months remaining in the term. |
In the first quarter of 2003, the Company executed a management contract with a prior employee of NSI and appointed a principal of NSI as a Director of its subsidiary 657333 B.C. Ltd. The management contract is for a period of three years, commencing January 1, 2003 and terminates January 31, 2006 with the option to renew for an additional three years. Compensation will be CDN $500 per month, as well as an additional CDN $250 month for each additional ATM installed, serviced and monitored by this Director, to a maximum of CDN $4,500 per month.
NOTE 4 - CAPITAL STOCK
The Company’s capitalization is 70,000,000 common shares with a par value of $0.001 per share and 5,000,000 preferred shares at no par value.
During the period the Company received proceeds of $44,078 on issuance of 440,776 restricted shares at a price of $.10 per share and $4,000 on issuance of 4,000,000 restricted shares at a price of $.001 per share.

The Company also incurred $1,500 in office rental fees to the same Officer.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES
The Company has net operating loss carry-forwards of approximately $10,000 which may be available to offset future taxable income which will expire in 2017. Due to the uncertainty of realization of these loss carry-forwards, a full valuation allowance has been provided for this deferred tax asset.

Under the NRS, director immunity from liability to a company or its shareholders for monetary liabilities applies automatically unless it is specifically limited by a company’s articles of incorporation that is not the case with our articles of incorporation. Excepted from that immunity are:
(1 | ) | a willful failure to deal fairly with the company or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director has a material conflict of interest; |
(2 | ) | a violation of criminal law (unless the director had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was lawful or no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful); |
(3 | ) | a transaction from which the director derived an improper personal profit; and |
(4 | ) | willful misconduct. |
Our bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by Delaware law; provided, however, that we may modify the extent of such indemnification by individual contracts with our directors and officers; and, provided, further, that we shall not be required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless:
(1 | ) | such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law; |
(2 | ) | the proceeding was authorized by our Board of Directors; |
(3 | ) | such indemnification is provided by us, in our sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested us under Nevada law; or |
(4 | ) | such indemnification is required to be made pursuant to the bylaws. |
Our bylaws provide that we will advance to any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer, of the company, or is or was serving at the request of the company as a director or executive officer of another company, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, prior to the final disposition of the proceeding, promptly following request therefore, all expenses incurred by any director or officer in connection with such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under our bylaws or otherwise.
Our bylaws provide that no advance shall be made by us to an officer of the company, except by reason of the fact that such officer is or was a director of the company in which event this paragraph shall not apply, in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, if a determination is reasonably and promptly made: (a) by the board of directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to the proceeding, or (b) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the company.
