Basis of Presentation |
|
The accompanying financial statements present on a consolidated basis the accounts of DiMi Telematics International, Inc. (formerly First Quantum Ventures, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), and its wholly owned subsidiary, DiMi Telematics, Inc. (“DTI”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. |
|
On October 28, 2011, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Share Exchange”) with DTI and its stockholders. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company issued 87,450,000 shares of its common stock in exchange for all outstanding shares and warrants to purchase common shares of DTI. As a result of the Share Exchange Agreement, DTI became a subsidiary of the Company. The Company assumed operation of DTI and entered the Telematics/M2M industry. On November 10, 2011, the closing of the Share Exchange occurred. In connection with the Share Exchange, (a) 15,000,000 of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock were surrendered for cancellation and (b) the Company’s officers and directors resigned and the following individuals assumed their duties as officers and directors: |

The Company has accounted for the acquisition under the purchase method of accounting for business combinations. Under the purchase method of accounting in a business combination effected through an exchange of equity interest, the entity that issues the equity interest is generally the acquiring entity. In some business combinations (commonly referred to as reverse acquisitions), however, the acquired entity issues the equity interest. Accounting for business combinations requires consideration of the facts and circumstances surrounding a business combination that generally involves the relative ownership and control of the entity by each of the parties subsequent to the acquisition. Based on a review of these factors, the Share Exchange was accounted for as a reverse acquisition, i.e., the Company was considered the acquired company and DTI was considered the acquiring company. As a result, the Company’s assets and liabilities were incorporated into DTI’s balance sheet based on the fair value of the net assets acquired. Further, the Company’s operating results will not include the Company’s results prior to the date of closing. Accordingly the accompanying financial statements are the financial statements of DTI. In addition, the Company’s fiscal year end changed to DTI’s fiscal year end of August 31 following the closing. |
|
The Company has retroactively reflected the acquisition of DTI’s common stock in a ratio consistent with the Share Exchange. |
|
On March 15, 2012, First Quantum Ventures, Inc., changed its name to DiMi Telematics International, Inc. |

Going Concern |
|
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared contemplating a continuation of the Company as a going concern. However, the Company has reported a net loss of $321,645 for the year ended August 31, 2013 and had an accumulated deficit of $937,413 as of August 31, 2013. The Company had net working capital of $416,470 as of August 31, 2013. |
|
Our flagship M2M solution is “DiMi,” a proprietary, patent-pending, business intelligence and two-way communications platform that captures and seamlessly integrates real-time data from networked tracking, monitoring, alarm and alert systems, sensors and devices; and, in turn, centralizes this data onto an online command and control dashboard that is accessible 24/7 by a designated user or community of designated users through the secure DiMi Internet portal, found at www.dimispeaks.com. |
|
With adoption of the DiMi M2M communications platform, users can remotely control, monitor, manage and acquire data from their operational assets, providing the interface for lighting, temperature, humidity, keycard access, fleet management and many other vital systems that impact the enterprise. DiMi uses established secure technology standards (i.e. LONet, MODbus, BACnet and ELK) combined with a unique, proprietary software interface that keeps users connected to their asset management and control systems through any web-enabled computer or mobile device, |
|
By providing dynamic, real-time access to critical information from a wide array of new or legacy sensors, GPS tracking tools and/or diagnostic devices – irrespective of their make, model or manufacturer, DiMi alerts or reports back to its users via familiar communication tools, like IM, email, HTML and text messaging. Users can even issue global commands to its asset management and control systems through the DiMi software interface. Moreover, DiMi leverages the collected knowledge of a particular asset or assets and compares it to historical performance metrics and other critical benchmarks through an integrated data management module, giving users insight that allow them to rapidly identify and implement proper preventive maintenance measures, efficiency improvements and other key operational activities. |
|
Our DiMi solution is currently being used to actively monitor property management systems in several high-rise commercial and residential buildings in New York City – all beta sites which have served to successfully prove out the DiMi technology and M2M communications platform. Moving forward, we intend to concentrate our DiMi commercialization efforts on marketing the solution to property management companies, commercial property developers, government/military installations, industrial facilities, retail and restaurant chains, colleges and universities, fleet managers, and any business or institutional concern with valuable fixed and mobile assets requiring remote surveillance, regular maintenance or general oversight. |
|
Once a new client’s core M2M business needs have been confirmed, we will closely collaborate with the client to design the organizational and process modifications required to ensure a successful DiMi launch, offering full service project definition, management, user interface customization, implementation services and ongoing quality assurance and testing. |
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents |
|
For purposes of these financial statements, cash and cash equivalents includes highly liquid debt instruments with maturity of less than three months. |
|
Concentrations of Credit Risk |
|
Financial instruments and related items, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and temporary cash investments with high credit quality institutions. At times, such investments may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Currently our operating account is above the FDIC limit. The amount in excess of the FDIC limit is $171,709 as of August 31, 2013. |
|
Income Taxes |
|
The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. |
|
The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent the Company believes these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. A valuation allowance is established against deferred tax assets that do not meet the criteria for recognition. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance which would reduce the provision for income taxes. |
|
The Company follows the accounting guidance which provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits. Income tax positions must meet a more-likely-than-not recognition threshold at the effective date to be recognized initially and in subsequent periods. Also included is guidance on measurement, recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. |
|
iPhone Application |
|
The iPhone application is stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated amortization are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives being 3 years. |
|
DiMi Platform. |
|
The DiMi Platform is stated at cost. Anticipated completion is December 2013. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated amortization are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives being 5 years. |
|
Intellectual Property |
|
Intellectual property is stated at cost. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated amortization are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition, is reflected in earnings. Minor additions and renewals are expensed in the year incurred. Major additions and renewals are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives being 3 years up to 15 years. |
|
Revenue Recognition |
|
The Company recognizes revenue on four basic criteria which must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. |
|
Stock Based Compensation |
|
The Company accounts for all compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. The Company uses the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. Stock issued for compensation is valued using the market price of the stock on the date of the related agreement. |
|
Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
There are no recent accounting pronouncements that are expected to have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements. |
|
Net Loss per Share |
|
Basic and diluted loss per share amounts are computed based on net loss divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Outstanding warrants to purchase of 12,675,000 common shares were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because the assumed conversion and exercise would be anti-dilutive for the year ended August 31, 2013. |
|
Management Estimates |
|
The presentation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts 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. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
