REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
The Board of Directors of
Zenovia Digital Exchange Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Zenovia Digital Exchange Corporation (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the related consolidated statements of operations and other comprehensive loss, changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit), and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States of America). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to the above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Zenovia Digital Exchange Corporation as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As described in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has incurred an accumulated deficit from inception to December 31, 2014. This raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to this matter are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Note 1 - Organization and Basis of Presentation
Organization and Line of Business
Zenovia Digital Exchange Corporation (“ZDE” or "the Company") was incorporated on February 1, 2012 under the laws of the state of Georgia. On August 12, 2013, Zenovia Digital Exchange Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”, “ZDX”, or the “Company”), ZDX Exchange Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Sub”), and ZDE entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger”) pursuant to which ZDE merged into Sub and reorganized ZDE. As a result of the Merger, the separate corporate existence of ZDE ceased and Sub continued as the surviving corporation of the Merger.
The Company is an advertising exchange business that focuses on maximizing both advertising revenue for digital web publishers and value per impression for digital advertisers of all sizes. Zenovia accomplishes this dual mandate through the application of its proprietary technology to produce a more efficient, quality-controlled marketplace.
Going Concern
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies the Company will continue to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the Company obtaining additional equity or debt financing until such time as the Company can generate income from operations. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise adequate equity or debt financing or generate profitable operations. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company incurred a net loss of $23,362,512. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $49,074,600. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. Management intends to raise additional funds through equity or debt financing and to generate profitable operations as a result of the acquisitions of two subsidiaries in 2014.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”). The Company’s functional currency is the United States Dollar (“US$”). The Company’s BRZX Pty Ltd. subsidiary’s functional currency is the Australian Dollar (“AUS$”) and its Chinese subsidiaries’ functional currency is Yuan Renminbi (“RMB”).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions 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 reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. It is possible that accounting estimates and assumptions may be material to the Company due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment involved.
Significant estimates made in connection with the accompanying consolidated financial statements include the estimated reserve for doubtful accounts receivable, valuations used for stock-based compensation, fair values in connection with the analysis of goodwill and long-lived assets for impairment, and estimated useful lives for intangible assets and property and equipment.
Cash
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and cash in time deposits, certificates of deposit and all highly liquid debt instruments with original maturities of three months or less. The Company did not have any cash equivalents at December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves.
Deferred Financing Costs
Deferred financing costs represent payments made to secure notes payable and is being amortized over the term on the related notes payable.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to earnings as incurred; additions, renewals and betterments are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Depreciation of property and equipment is provided using the straight-line method for substantially all assets with estimated lives as follows:
Furniture and fixtures | 7 years |
Computer equipment | 5 years |
Leasehold improvement | Term of lease |
Long-Lived Assets
The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 360,Property, Plant, and Equipment, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. ASC 360 requires impairment losses to be recorded on long-lived assets used in operations when indicators of impairment are present and the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amounts. In that event, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value of the long-lived assets. Loss on long-lived assets to be disposed of is determined in a similar manner, except that fair values are reduced for the cost of disposal. Based on its review at December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company believes there was no impairment of its long-lived assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the underlying net assets of businesses acquired. Under accounting requirements, goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual impairment tests. As of December 31, 2014 the Company performed the required impairment review which resulted in no impairment adjustments.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company evaluates all of its agreements to determine if such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in the consolidated statements of operations. For stock-based derivative financial instruments, the Company uses an option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and on subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is evaluated at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date. As of December 31, 2014, the Company’s only derivative financial instrument was a beneficial conversion feature associated with a note payable. See Note 6.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
For certain of the Company’s financial instruments, including cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and notes payable, the carrying amounts approximate their FVs due to their short maturities.
FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” requires disclosure of the FV of financial instruments held by the Company. FASB ASC Topic 825, “Financial Instruments,” defines FV, and establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy for disclosures of FV measurement that enhances disclosure requirements for FV measures. The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for receivables and current liabilities each qualify as financial instruments and are a reasonable estimate of their FVs because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization and their current market rate of interest. The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:
| · | Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under FASB ASC Topic 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity,” and FASB ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging.”
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue based on the activity generated from hosting auctions between Supply-Side Platform Partners (“SSP”), (the advertiser offering inventory) and Demand Partners, (the purchaser of inventory). Revenues are recognized when the related advertising services are delivered based on the specific terms of the advertising contract or by the number of impressions delivered, which are based on the final acceptance of the auction bid by the SSP submitted by the Demand Partner. The Company recognizes revenue based on these terms because the services have been provided, the fees the Company charges are fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and collectability is reasonably assured.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013
In the normal course of business, the Company acts as an intermediary in executing transactions with third parties. The determination of whether revenue should be reported on a gross or net basis is based on an assessment of whether the Company is acting as the principal or an agent in the transaction. In determining whether the Company acts as the principal or an agent, the Company follows the accounting guidance for principal-agent considerations. While none of the factors identified in this guidance is individually considered presumptive or determinative, because the Company is the primary obligor and is responsible for (i) identifying and contracting with third-party advertisers, (ii) establishing the selling prices of the advertisements sold, (iii) performing all billing and collection activities including retaining credit risk and (iv) bearing sole responsibility for fulfillment of the advertising, the Company acts as the principal in these arrangements and therefore reports revenue earned and costs incurred on a gross basis.
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue primarily represents the advertising inventory costs under the SSP contracts, third-party hosting fees and agreed-upon amounts for advertising space utilized in digital advertisements. Cost of revenue is recognized at the same time that the associated advertising revenue is recognized. These amounts are typically agreed upon in advance as either a fixed percentage of the advertising revenue earned by the Company based on digital advertisements that are run on each website or as a fixed fee for the ad space based on number of impressions delivered.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation.” FASB ASC Topic 718 requires companies to measure compensation cost for stock-based employee compensation at FV at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. The Company recognizes in the statement of operations the grant-date FV of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees and non-employees. There were options to purchase 1,850,000 and 800,000 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The adoption had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Foreign Currency Translation
The accounts of the Company’s Australian and Chinese subsidiaries are maintained in AUS$ and RMB, respectively. These accounts were translated into US$ in accordance with ASC Topic 830,Foreign CurrencyMatters. According to ASC Topic 830, all assets and liabilities were translated at the exchange rate on the balance sheet dates, stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates and statement of operation items are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income (loss) in accordance with ASC Topic 220,Comprehensive Income. Gains and losses resulting from the translations of foreign currency transactions and balances are reflected in the statements of income.

FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND 2013
Foreign Currency Transactions and Comprehensive Income (Loss)
US GAAP requires that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain statements, however, require entities to report specific changes in assets and liabilities, such as gain or loss on foreign currency translation, as a separate component of the equity section of the balance sheet. Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income (loss). Translation gains (losses) are classified as an item of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the stockholders’ equity (deficit) section of the consolidated balance sheet.
Statement of Cash Flows
In accordance ASC Topic 230,Statement of Cash Flows, cash flows from the Company’s operations are calculated based upon the local currencies using the average translation rates. As a result, amounts related to assets and liabilities reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows will not necessarily agree with changes in the corresponding balances on the consolidated balance sheets.
Basic and Diluted Earnings Per Share
Earnings per share is calculated in accordance with ASC Topic 260, “Earnings Per Share.” Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock warrants were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. There were warrants and options outstanding to purchase 5,853,000 and 1,697,750 shares of common stock that were potentially dilutive at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Also at December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were notes payable outstanding that could potentially convert into 6,900,000 and 250,000 shares of common stock, respectively.
Segment Reporting
The Company has determined that it operates in one segment. The Company’s chief operating decision maker reviews financial information on an aggregated and consolidated basis, together with certain operating and performance measures principally to make decisions about how to allocate resources and to measure the Company’s performance.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-08, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360)." ASU 2014-08 amends the requirements for reporting discontinued operations and requires additional disclosures about discontinued operations. Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations or that have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results should be presented as discontinued operations. This new accounting guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-08 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
In May 2014, the ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. The standard’s core principle is that a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of its fiscal year ending June 30, 2018. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12, Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force) (ASU 2014-12). The guidance applies to all reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. For all entities, the amendments in this Update are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2014-12 on the Company's results of operations or financial condition.
In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entities Ability to Continue as a Going Concern(ASU 2014-15). The guidance in ASU 2014-15 sets forth management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern as well as required disclosures. ASU 2014-15 indicates that, when preparing financial statements for interim and annual financial statements, management should evaluate whether conditions or events, in the aggregate, raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern for one year from the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. This evaluation should include consideration of conditions and events that are either known or are reasonably knowable at the date the financial statements are issued or are available to be issued, as well as whether it is probable that management's plans to address the substantial doubt will be implemented and, if so, whether it is probable that the plans will alleviate the substantial doubt. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods and annual periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In January 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-01, Income Statement – Extraordinary and Unusual items (Subtopic 225-20), Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items (ASU 2015-01). The amendment eliminates from U.S. GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. This guidance is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. Early adoption is permitted and allows the Company to apply the amendment prospectively or retrospectively. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB (including its Emerging Issues Task Force), the AICPA, and the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statements.

(1) - Under the terms of the agreement reached with OpenX, the approximately $2.6 million owed by the Company was exchanged for (1) a reduction of $95,000 based upon receivables due to the Company from OpenX, (2) a $500,000 trade note payable from the Company to OpenX and (3) A net settlement gain for the approximately $2.0 million remaining balance recorded under general and administrative expense, and a corresponding transaction was further recorded against Cost of Sales in the same period. The Company made the first two required payments of the trade note of $250,000 and $100,000 on August 22 and December 31, 2013, respective and the remaining balance was subject to the following repayment schedule: (a) $100,000 due on March 31, 2014; and (b) $50,000 due on June 30, 2014. As of July 3, 2014, the remaining balance of the Open X note payable has been paid in full.
(2) - In connection with the issuance of this note payable, the Company entered into an amendment with the lender on May 12, 2014 as follows: (a) extend the maturity date of the note to May 23, 2014; (b) increase the collateral to 500,000 shares of common stock; and (c) deliver to the lender 75,000 shares of common stock on or prior to May 15, 2014. The Company entered into a second amendment with the lender on May 23, 2014 to (a) extend the maturity date of the note to December 31, 2014, with interest being at the rate of 12% per annum; and (b) the Company agrees to pay the Lender payments of principal as requested by Lender prior to the maturity date, with all payments made by the Company to the Lender being applied to principal initially and to outstanding interest only when all outstanding principal has been retired. On December 9, 2014, the Lender forgave the outstanding balance of the note and retained the collateral in the amount of 500,000 shares of common stock.
(3) - In connection with the issuance of these notes payable, the Company also issued to the noteholders warrants to purchase an aggregate of 1,902,600 and 125,000 shares of the Company’s common stock during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The exercise price of the warrants ranged from $2.00 to $3.13 per shares. The Company determined the fair value of these warrants to be $2,793,489 and $197,797 for warrants issued during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions:
| | 2014 | | 2013 |
Risk-free interest rate | | 1.52% to 2.05% | | 1.83% |
Expected life of the options | | 5 to 5.8 years | | 6 years |
Expected volatility | | 100% | | 100% |
Expected dividend yield | | 0% | | 0% |
The Company recognized the fair value of these warrants as a debt discount and additional paid in capital. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the respective notes payable. Amortization of these debt discounts that is reflected as interest expense and financing costs in the accompanying statement of operations was $2,373,716 and $79,768 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
(4) – This notes payable was issued in connection with the acquisition of BRZX. The note payable has a mandatory conversion feature if the Company becomes a publicly traded company on an exchange in the United States. The note payable also has a voluntary conversion feature whereby the holder can convert the note payable into shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion rate for both the mandatory and voluntary conversion calls for the issuance of common stock of the Company such that the value of the shares on the date of conversion will equal $12,500,000. The beneficial conversion feature embedded in this note payable has been recorded as a derivative liability. The fair value of this beneficial conversion feature was determined to be $10,200,000, which is the intrinsic value of the benefit that will be received upon conversion which is calculated as the difference between the fair value of the shares to be received upon conversion of $12,500,000 less the face amount of the note payable of $2,300,000.

Note 8 – Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. A full valuation allowance is established against all net deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 based on estimates of recoverability. While the Company has optimistic plans for its business strategy, it determined that such a valuation allowance was necessary given the current and expected near term losses and the uncertainty with respect to its ability to generate sufficient profits from its new business model. Because of the impacts of the valuation allowance, there was no income tax expense or benefit for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The valuation allowance increased by $5,436,293 and $836,140 in 2014 and 2013 as a result of the Company generating additional net operating losses.
The Company has recorded as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 a valuation allowance of $7,832,433 and $2,396,140, respectively, as it believes that it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realized in future years. Management has based its assessment on the Company’s lack of profitable operating history.
The Company annually conducts an analysis of its tax positions and has concluded that it has no uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2014.

Note 10 – Business Combinations
BRZX Pty Ltd.
On February 28, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase certain assets of Brandscreen Pty Ltd, Brandscreen, Pte Ltd and the associated subsidiaries (“Brandscreen”) into the wholly owned subsidiary BRZX Pty Ltd., an Australian company. The purchase price consisted of $2,516,172 in cash and a note payable in the amount of $2,300,000. The note payable has a mandatory conversion feature if the Company becomes a publicly traded company on an exchange in the United States. The note payable also has a voluntary conversion feature whereby the holder can convert the note payable into shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion rate for both the mandatory and voluntary conversion calls for the issuance of common stock of the Company such that the value of the shares on the date of conversion will equal $12,500,000. As a result of this conversion feature, the Company has recorded as additional purchase consideration the value of this conversion feature which is $10,200,000.
AdJuggler, Inc.
On October 1, 2014, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with AdJuggler, Inc. (“AdJuggler”), and the stockholders of AdJuggler. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of AdJuggler from its two stockholders.
