Diversinet Reports Second Quarter 2008 Financial Results
Two Customers Launch Wallet and Vault Solution During Quarter
TORONTO, Canada, August 1, 2008 – Diversinet Corp. (TSX Venture: DIV, OTCBB: DVNTF), a leading provider of wireless data application and security infrastructure products and services, today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2008.
Revenues for the second quarter were $565,000, up 65 percent compared to $342,000 in Q1 2008 and down from $1,017,000 for the second quarter of 2007. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $906,000, down from $1,923,000 in the same period in 2007. During the second quarter of 2008 two of the Company’s customers successfully launched their applications using Diversinet’s Wallet and Vault technology. All dollar amounts are in U.S. dollars.
The net loss for the second quarter of 2008 was $1,205,000 or $0.03 per share compared to $1,045,000, or $0.03 per share in the second quarter of 2007. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $2,363,000, or $0.05 per share, compared to a net loss of $1,376,000 or $0.04 per share in the similar six months of 2007. Included in the second quarter net loss are non-cash stock-based compensation, depreciation and amortization of $304,000 ($218,000 in Q2 2007). Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2008 were $7,864,000 and $8,394,000 at December 31, 2007.
As stated in our 2007 annual results press release, Diversinet now has two live customer launches of its Wallet and Vault platform licensed in 2007 and expects to have additional customer wins in the second half of 2008.
Company, customer, and product solution highlights include:
•
In June, Intersections launched Mobile Lockbox, a major enhancement to the Identity Guard® Total Protection service. MobiSecure™ Wallet and Vault mobile secure encrypted access solution is at the heart of the offering. MobiSecure Wallet and Vault provides Intersections with a mobile security platform to extend its core Identity Guard offering by creating a host of new services that build closer, more personal and “sticky” relationships with new and existing customers.
•
In April, AllOne launched its mobile application that uses Diversinet’s secure MobiSecure Wallet and Vault product line to place personal health records (PHR) at consumers’ fingertips through their mobile phones. AllOne Mobile accesses an individual’s PHR in a secure environment and links to the users’ mobile phones, giving them well-organized, easy-to-use, 24/7 mobile access. Users can manage and share their PHRs with physicians, hospitals, clinics and emergency personnel helping to improve medical outcomes. AllOne data is stored behind a password-protected encrypted channel through a partnership with Diversinet. The application is downloaded wirelessly to phones and is automatically updated with the most current security and features available. This level of security and control gives users the confidence and comfort to c reate, manage and enhance their PHRs using the mobile phone or the Web.
•
In April Diversinet launched the MobiSecure™ USBToken. The MobiSecure USBToken is a One Time Password (OTP) authentication technology contained within a durable, portable USB device which is driverless and leaves no residual footprint on the user’s computer.
•
In June CEO and Chairman Albert Wahbe exercised 2,300,000 share purchase warrants for gross proceeds of US$1,725,000. The share purchase warrants had an exercise price of US$0.75 per common share. Diversinet intends to use the new funds to continue its research and development programs and expand our sales and service activities.
Mr. Wahbe stated “We are delighted that AllOne and Intersections were able to successfully launch their product offering during the second quarter. With the launch of the Wallet and Vault product and the introduction of the MobiSecure USBToken we continue to build our product offering to increase revenue opportunities and enhance our long term shareholder value.”

NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS |
(Unaudited) |
(Amounts expressed in US dollars) |
Three and six months ended June 30, 2008 |
|
Diversinet Corp. (the “Company”), an Ontario corporation, develops, markets and distributes wireless security infrastructure solutions and identity management solutions and professional services to the health services, financial services, software security, storage and memory manufacturers, entertainment and gaming and telecommunications marketplaces. |
|
1. Significant accounting policies |
a) Basis of consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. |
(b) Basis of presentation |
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements and, accordingly, certain disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles are not provided. Other than the adoption of new accounting standards, as described in note 1(c), these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared following accounting principles consistent with those used in the annual audited consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2007.
In the opinion of management, the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal and recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the financial position at June 30, 2008 and the results of operations and cash flows for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007. Due to the nature of the Company’s sales cycle and the size of individual orders, the results reported in these interim unaudited consolidated financial statements should not be regarded as necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire period. |
|
(c) Adoption of new accounting standards |
(i) Capital disclosures: Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the new recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) Handbook Section 1535, Capital Disclosures. This new Handbook Section establishes standards for disclosing information about an entity’s capital and how it is managed. It requires the disclosure of information about an entity’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital. These new disclosures are included in note 11.
(ii) Financial instruments: Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the new recommendations of CICA Handbook Section 3862, Financial Instruments - Disclosures and Handbook Section 3863, Financial Instruments – Presentation.
Section 3862 requires entities to provide disclosures in their financial statements that enable users to evaluate the significance of financial instruments on the entity’s financial position and its performance and the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments to which the entity is exposed during the period and at the balance sheet date, and how the entity manages those risks. Section 3863 establishes standards for presentation of financial instruments and non-financial derivatives. It deals with the classification of financial instruments, from the perspective of the issuer, between liabilities and equities, the classification of related interest, dividends, losses and gains, and circumstances in which financial assets and financial liabilities are offset. The adoption of these standards had no impact on the classification of the Company’s financial instruments nor on the Company’s loss for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008. The new disclosures pursuant to these new Handbook Sections are included in notes 2 and 12.
(iii) General standards of financial statement presentation: |
|
In May 2007, the CICA amended Section 1400, General Standards of Financial Statement Presentation, to change the guidance related to management's responsibility to assess the ability of the entity to continue as a going concern. Management is required to make an assessment of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and should take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, 12 months from the balance sheet date. Disclosure is required of material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. These amendments were effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The amendments did not have a material impact on the interim consolidated financial statements. |
2. Financial instruments |

Allowance for doubtful accounts | - | - |
Other | - | 14,683 |
| - | 122,687 |
The Company recognizes an allowance for doubtful accounts that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade receivables. The allowance is based on a variety of factors, including the length of time receivables are past due, circumstances relating to the customer, and historical experience. As at June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company did not have an allowance for doubtful accounts. At June 30, 2008 and December 31, 2007, the Company had no material past due trade accounts receivables. |

Share compensation during 2008 under the agreement was $29,499 representing the issuance of 75,000 shares. The share compensation was valued based on the Company’s common share price on date of issuance. This agreement was replaced by the employment agreement dated April 2, 2008. |

(b) Stock options: Each stock option entitles the holder to purchase one common share of the Company. A total of 8,500,000 common shares (being 9,558,474 in the plan less 1,058,474 exercised to date) have been reserved to meet outstanding options, or future options to be granted, under the option plan. A summary of the Company’s stock options outstanding and the changes during the six month period ended June 30, 2008 is presented below: |

7. Stock based compensation |
(a) During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $277,815 (2007 - $188,516) and $479,469 (2007 - $311,587) respectively, related to common shares, stock options and warrants granted to employees, officers, directors and other consultants. |
|
(b) The Company has granted 3,405,000 and 4,520,000 options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 respectively. The weighted average estimated fair value at the date of the grant for options granted for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $0.47. The fair value of each option granted was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions: |
|
| Three months ended June 30 | 2008 | 2007 |
| Risk-free interest rate | 4.0% | 4.0% |
| Volatility factor of the future expected market price | 117% | 117% |
| Weighted average expected life of options | 5 years | 5 years |
8. Basic and diluted loss per share |
Common shares issuable upon the exercise of options and warrants that could dilute basic loss per share in the future were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because to do so would have been anti-dilutive for all periods presented. |

9. Related party transactions |

11. Capital risk management: |
The Company manages its capital to maintain its ability to continue as a going concern. The capital structure of the Company consists of cash and cash equivalents and equity comprising of issued capital, contributed surplus, share purchase warrants and deficit. The Company manages its capital structure and makes adjustments to it in light of economic conditions. The Company’s primary objective with respect to its capital management is to ensure it has sufficient cash resources to pursue its commercialization efforts and maintain its ongoing operations. The Company, upon approval from its Board of Directors, will balance its overall capital structure through new share issues, or by undertaking other activities as deemed appropriate under the specific circumstances. The Company is not subject to externally imposed capital requirements and the Company’s overall strategy wi th respect to capital risk management remains unchanged from the year ended December 31, 2007. |
| 12. Financial risk management: |
| a) Overview: The Company’s Board of Directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. The Audit Committee reviews the Company’s risk management policies on an annual basis. The finance department identifies and evaluates financial risks and is charged with the responsibility of establishing controls and procedures to ensure that financial risks are mitigated in accordance with the approved policies.
b) Credit risk: Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Company if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises from the Company’s accounts receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The carrying amount of financial assets represents the maximum credit exposure. Our customer base is limited to a few large financial institutions, health service enterprises and security providers. As a result, we often maintain individually significant receivable balances due from them. The majority of the Company’s customers are located in the United States with the remaining located in Canada and Asia. The Company does not have any accounts receivable outstanding at June 30, 2008. At December 31, 2007, one customer represented 89% of the accounts receivable balance.
The Company invests its excess cash with the objective of maintaining safety of principal and providing adequate liquidity to meet all current payment obligations and future planned capital expenditures and with the secondary objective of maximizing the overall yield of the portfolio. The Company’s cash is not subject to any external restrictions. Investments must be rated at least investment grade by recognized rating agencies. Given these high credit ratings, the Company does not expect any counterparties to these investments to fail to meet their obligations.
c) Liquidity risk: Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Company’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the Company’s reputation. The Company manages its liquidity risk by continuously monitoring forecast and actual revenues and expenditures and cash flows from operations. Senior management is also actively involved in the review and approval of planned expenditures. All of the Company’s financial liabilities have contracted maturities of less than one year.
d) Market risk: Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the Company’s income or the value of its financial instruments.
(i) Interest rate risk Based on management’s knowledge and experience of the financial markets, management does not believe that the Company’s current financial instruments will be affected by interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is remote as interest rates on the Company’s cash equivalents are fixed with maturity dates of less than 90 days. A change of 1% in interest rates at June 30, 2008 would not have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations due to the short term to maturity of the investments held.
(ii) Currency risk: The Company operates internationally with the U.S. dollar as its functional currency and therefore is exposed to foreign exchange risk from various currencies, primarily Canadian dollars. Foreign exchange risk arises from purchase transactions as well as recognized financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. The Company's main objective in managing its foreign exchange risk is to maintain Canadian cash on hand to support Canadian forecasted obligations and cash flows. To achieve this objective the Company monitors forecasted cash flows in foreign currencies and attempts to mitigate the risk by modifying the nature of cash and cash equivalents held. During the six months ended June 30, 2008 and fiscal 2007 the Company maintained a portion of its cash resources in both U.S. and Canadian dollar cash and cash equivalents. The Company does not have any foreign currency derivative instruments outs tanding at June 30, 2008.
Balances in foreign currencies at June 30, 2008 are as follows: |
| | |
| Canadian dollars | |
Cash and cash equivalents | $90,800 | |
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | 425,595 | |
|
Fluctuations in the Canadian dollar exchange rate could have a potentially significant impact on the Company's results from operations. However, they would not impair or enhance the ability of the Company to pay its foreign currency-denominated expenses as such items would be similarly affected. |
e) Fair value of financial instruments: For cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the relatively short periods to maturity of these financial instruments. |

EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
Our Business and Strategy
Founded in 1997 and based in Toronto, Canada, Diversinet is a provider of personal authentication and security solutions for the wireless world. Our software and solutions protect user identity and provide secure access for consumer and business applications using a variety of mobile phones, Personal Digital Assistants (“PDA”) and personal computers. Our scaleable, open mobile security platform enables enterprises and service providers to rapidly develop, deploy and manage next-generation wireless security services. Our technology simplifies what had previously been a complex set of technical problems in both information security and wireless data communications. In January 2005, Diversinet began to focus on the evolving protection and trust needs of mobile users. These financial results reflect this shift in focus and the time required to build up a customer base under this new strategy and a rebuilding of the sales and marketing strategy of the Company.
Diversinet’s MobiSecure soft tokens and MobiSecure Authentication Service Center (“MASC”) enable heath care service providers, identity management service providers, financial service providers, mobile network operators and security service providers to rapidly develop, deploy and manage secure on-line services for mobile device and personal computer users worldwide. Our MobiSecure soft tokens are securely provisioned and managed by MASC and are available on the leading intelligent mobile device platforms, including Symbian, Microsoft, RIM, Palm and Java-based phones as well as on personal computers running Microsoft Windows.
Diversinet’s MobiSecure Wallet is a client-side secure container application, which can access or hold confidential personal information, such as user identification and access information via fax, email and SMS. It operates in concert with the MobiSecure Vault, a server-side secure container application, and allows a user to access a host of personal information files. Personal health records, financial information, payment information, entertainment or loyalty information can be accessed in real time, directly from a user’s mobile phone or other hand-held access device. The MobiSecure Vault provides large file storage and backup to the MobiSecure Wallet and is accessible through web service interfaces and adaptors.
Diversinet’s MobiSecure USBToken is a One Time Password authentication technology contained within a durable, portable USB device which is driverless and leaves no residual footprint on the user’s computer. It performs basic functions for managing and generating one-time password values while leaving zero footprint on the user’s computer.
Diversinet’s combination of client software and wireless provisioning services enables the issuance and management of mobile device authentication tokens and also creates a technology platform from which we can provide an entirely new and powerful set of capabilities in the mobile e-commerce environment in the form of digital identities, digital permissions and wireless wallets. In addition to providing mobile device security and provisioning solutions, Diversinet deploys an experienced professional services team for application development, consulting, training and technical support.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Revenues
For the three months ended June 30, 2008, we reported revenues of $565,000 compared to revenues of $1,017,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2007. Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 were $906,000 compared to $1,923,000 for 2007. Second quarter 2008 revenues included license revenues from Intersections of $445,000 and the delivery of statements of work to AllOne of $77,500. The Company currently generates its revenues from a small number of customers. The timing of signing customer contracts and the revenue recognition associated with the customer contracts results in volatility in our revenues and operating income. During the second quarter, both Intersections and AllOne launched services that included our Wallet and Vault products licensed in 2007. In December 2006 we entered into a consulting and licensing agreement with BCNEPA. During 2007, this agreement generated revenue of $933,000 (Q 1 - $828,000, Q2 - $105,000) for the delivery of the solution to Blue Cross of Northeastern Pennsylvania (BCNEPA), including 100,000 tokens. In May 2007 we entered into a license and VAR agreement to provide our MobiSecure Wallet and MobiSecure Vault mobile secure access solution to Intersections. In the three months ended June 30, 2008 this agreement generated license revenues of $445,000 ($776,000 - Q2 2007). We continue to focus on the U.S. market where we derived 89% of our revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2008 (94% for 2007).
Cost of Revenues
Our cost of revenues primarily represents the direct costs associated with customer support, training and implementation, and consulting services related to services performed under contract with our customers. There are no significant costs associated with the manufacturing of our software. The Company does not allocate any indirect costs such as facilities, sales commissions and administrative costs to cost of revenues.
Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2008, were $69,000 (or gross margin of 88%) compared with $16,000 (or gross margin of 98%) for the three months ended June 30, 2007 and $151,000 (or gross margin of 83%) compared with $53,000 (or gross margin of 97%) for the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007 respectively. The lower margin in 2008 is the result of overall revenues being comprised of a larger percentage of service revenues. This represents the direct costs, including salaries, associated with completing consulting services revenue.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses includes compensation of software development teams working on the continuing enhancement of our products, quality assurance and testing activities as well as legal costs incurred for patent registration activities and direct administrative costs incurred by the department. The Company does not include an allocation of general operating expenses to its research and development expenses.
Research and development expenses increased to $715,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2008 from $616,000 in the three months ended June 30, 2007 and to $1,343,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $1,155,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2007. During the first six months of 2008, the development department redeployed its resources to perform professional services work required to modify our products as required under our customer agreements. As a result, 2008 product development costs of $100,000 (Q1 - $77,000; Q2 - $23,000) were reallocated from research and development to cost of revenues. No such costs were reallocated in 2007. The higher costs in Q2 2008 are primarily the result of foreign exchange changes on payroll costs and a modest increase in headcount from 24 in 2007 to 26 in 2008.
Sales and Marketing
Sales and marketing expenses include compensation of sales and marketing personnel, public relations and advertising, trade shows, marketing materials and direct operating expenses incurred by the sales and marketing department. The Company does not include an allocation of general operating expenses in its sales and marketing expenses.
Sales and marketing expenses were $486,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $371,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2007. Sales and marketing expenses increased to $896,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2008 from $559,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increase in sales and marketing costs of $337,000 over 2007 was partly due to a greater focus on sales activities, leading to an increase in payroll, consulting and professional fees related to sales and product marketing.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include compensation expenses for corporate personnel and other general and administrative expenses such as facilities, travel and professional costs. Corporate personnel include executive officers, business development, financial planning and control, legal, human resources and corporate administrative staff.
General and administrative expenses were $525,000 for the second quarter of 2008 compared to $1,045,000 incurred during the similar period of 2007. General and administrative expenses were $972,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $1,502,000 incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2007. Included in general and administrative expenses are non-cash charges related to stock-based compensation. Under GAAP, the Company is required to estimate the fair value of stock-based compensation granted to employees and to expense the fair value over the estimated vesting period of the stock options and warrant grants. We have recorded stock-based compensation expense of $278,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 ($189,000 - 2007) and $479,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2007 ($312,000 - 2007). The higher expenses in the three and six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily due to the $512,000 severance payment to Mr. Moustafa, our former CEO.
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense in the second quarter of 2008 was $26,000 compared to $29,000 in the second quarter of 2007. Depreciation and amortization expense for the six months ended June 30, 2008 decreased to $52,000 from $57,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2007. This is consistent with the size of our net property and equipment. During the second quarter of 2008, capital assets additions of $13,000 relate to computer equipment.
Net Loss
We reported a net loss of $1,205,000, or 0.03 per share based on a weighted average 43,243,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2008 compared to $1,045,000 or 0.03 per share based on a weighted average 34,435,000 common shares in the prior year’s second quarter. The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $2,363,000 or 0.05 per share based on a weighted average 43,205,000 common shares compared to $1,376,000 or 0.04 per share based on a weighted average 34,117,000 common shares for the six months ended June 30, 2007. The increased net loss is due primarily to the decrease in quarterly revenues and increases in stock based compensation and sales costs.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments at June 30, 2008 were $7,864,000 compared with $3,962,000 at June 30, 2007 and $8,394,000 at December 31, 2007. The net change in cash and cash equivalents for the six months ended June 30, 2008 was a decrease of $(530,000) compared to $(1,185,000) for 2007.
The cash used for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 is mainly due to operating activities, which used cash in an amount of $703,000 and $2,241,000 respectively, which was offset by cash received on the exercise of warrants in an amount of $1,725,000. The cash used for three and six months ended June 30, 2007 is primarily due to operating activities, which used cash in an amount of $653,000 and $1,573,000 respectively, which was offset by cash received on the exercise of employee stock options and warrants in an amount of $199,000 and $466,000 respectively.
We believe that our cash and cash equivalents as at June 30, 2008 of $7,864,000 and cash generated from operations will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.
We have incurred operating losses in each of the last eleven fiscal years. We have sustained our business during this period through a series of common share issuances through private placements, and through our employee share option plan. We cannot provide assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient funds in the future to sustain our operations beyond the next twelve months.
OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have had, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.
TABULAR DISCLOSURE OF CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS
We are committed under operating leases for a total amount of approximately $893,000. The minimum payments due in each of the following years are as follows:
Contractual obligations | Less than 1 year | 2-3 years | 4-5 years | More than 5 years | Total |
Operating lease obligations | $116,647 | $466,588 | $309,953 | - | $893,188 |
Total | $116,647 | $466,588 | $309,953 | - | $893,188 |

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation 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, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates are used in determining the allowance for doubtful accounts and revenue recognition. In making such estimates and assumptions, management consults with employees knowledgeable in the area; gathers relevant information; where appropriate, seeks advice from qualified third parties; and, makes judgments, which in their opinion at that time, represent fair, balanced and appropriate conservative estimates and assumptions.
In our 2007 Annual Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto as well as in our 2007 Annual MD&A, we have identified the accounting policies and estimates that are critical to the understanding of our business operations and our results of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2008 there are no changes to the critical accounting policies and estimates from those found in our 2007 Annual MD&A.
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(i) Capital disclosures
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the new recommendations of the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants (“CICA”) Handbook Section 1535, Capital Disclosures. This new Handbook Section establishes standards for disclosing information about an entity’s capital and how it is managed. It requires the disclosure of information about an entity’s objectives, policies and processes for managing capital. These new disclosures are included in note 11 of the interim consolidated financial statements.
(ii) Financial instruments
Effective January 1, 2008, the Company adopted the new recommendations of CICA Handbook Section 3862, Financial Instruments - Disclosures and Handbook Section 3863, Financial Instruments – Presentation.
Section 3862 requires entities to provide disclosures in their financial statements that enable users to evaluate the significance of financial instruments on the entity’s financial position and its performance and the nature and extent of risks arising from financial instruments to which the entity is exposed during the period and at the balance sheet date, and how the entity manages those risks.
Section 3863 establishes standards for presentation of financial instruments and non-financial derivatives. It deals with the classification of financial instruments, from the perspective of the issuer, between liabilities and equities, the classification of related interest, dividends, losses and gains, and circumstances in which financial assets and financial liabilities are offset. The adoption of these standards had no impact on the classification of the Company’s financial instruments as on the Company’s loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2008. The new disclosures pursuant to these new Handbook Sections are included in note 2 and 12 of the interim consolidated financial statements.
(iii) General standards of financial statement presentation:
In May 2007, the CICA amended Section 1400, General Standards of Financial Statement Presentation, to change the guidance related to management's responsibility to assess the ability of the entity to continue as a going concern. Management is required to make an assessment of an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and should take into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, 12 months from the balance sheet date. Disclosure is required of material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt upon the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. These amendments were effective for the Company on January 1, 2008. The amendments did not have a material impact on the interim consolidated financial statements.
RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”)
In 2006, the Canadian Accounting Standards Board (“AcSB”) published a new strategic plan that will significantly impact financial reporting requirements for Canadian companies. The AcSB strategic plan outlines the convergence of Canadian GAAP with IFRS over an expected five-year transitional period. In February 2008, the AcSB announced that 2011 is the changeover date for public accountable companies to convert from Canadian GAAP to IFRS. The transition date is for interim and annual financial statements relating to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. Accordingly, this new standard will apply to the Company effective for the fiscal year commencing January 1, 2011. While the Company has begun assessing the adoption of IFRS, the financial reporting impact of the transaction to IFRS cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2008, we did not make any significant changes in, nor take any corrective actions regarding, our internal controls or other factors that could significantly affect these controls. We periodically review our internal controls for effectiveness and conduct an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures each quarter.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
Our Company is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted or anticipated. These risks are described in our annual Form 20-F filed with the SEC in the United States at www.sec.gov and filed on SEDAR in Canada at www.sedar.com. We encourage you to review these filings in order to evaluate an investment in our securities. Some key risks that could cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted or anticipated are listed below.
Financial resources: Although we have made progress in developing our solutions and have completed initial consumer deployments, our revenue from operations is not sufficient to cover our operating expenses at present and may be unlikely to be sufficient within fiscal 2008. We have obtained funding for operations from private placements in the past, but there is no assurance we will be able to do so again in the future or on terms favourable to the Company, despite the progress of the business. Our failure to either raise capital when needed or to generate revenues would leave us with insufficient resources to continue our business.
Variability of performance: Our quarterly and annual operating results have varied substantially in the past and are likely to vary substantially from quarter to quarter and year to year in the future due to a variety of factors. In particular, our period-to-period operating results are significantly dependent upon the sale of license agreements and the continued success in providing professional services. In this regard, the purchase of our solutions often requires our customers to make a significant capital investment, which customers may view as a discretionary cost and, therefore, a purchase that can be deferred or cancelled due to budgetary or other business reasons. Furthermore, our ability to continue providing professional services is dependent upon being able to provide value added resources at reasonable rates. Estimating future revenues is also difficult because we ship our products upon receipt of a sig ned license agreement and, therefore, we do not have a backlog. Thus, quarterly and annual license revenues are heavily dependent upon agreements finalized and software shipped within the same quarter or year. We expect these revenue patterns to continue for the foreseeable future, until recurring revenue becomes a significant portion of total revenue. Despite the uncertainties in our revenue patterns, our operating expenses are based upon anticipated revenue levels and such expenses are incurred on an approximately rateable basis throughout the quarter. As a result, if expected revenues are delayed or otherwise not realized in a quarter for any reason, our business, operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected in a significant way.
Liquidity of our common shares: If our common shares should become ineligible for continued quotation on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board or a public trading market does not continue for any reason, holders of our common shares may have difficulty selling their shares. Our common shares became ineligible for continued quotation on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market and are now trading on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board; therefore holders of our common shares will have difficulty selling their shares. Our common shares were quoted on the NASDAQ SmallCap Market from June 1995 through late April 2003. During the July 2008, our common shares were posted for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange on Tier 1 as a technology issuer under the symbol DIV.
Our common shares may continue to be penny stock, which may adversely affect the liquidity of our common shares. The United States Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted regulations that define a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price, as defined in those regulations, of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. Our common shares are currently penny stock.
Commercial deployment: The ability of the Company to continue operations is also dependent on the acceptance of its security and identity management solutions and the adoption of transaction-based applications over wireless networks as an accepted method of commerce in sufficient volume for us to generate enough revenues to fund our expenses and capital requirements. The wireless mobile commerce market is in a very early stage and it may not develop to a sufficient level to support our business.
Dependence on key customers; concentration of credit: The loss of any key customer and our inability to replace revenues provided by a key customer may have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition. Our customer base includes large financial institutions and security providers. As a result, we maintain individually significant receivable balances due from them. If these customers fail to meet their payment obligations, our operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. The Company does not have any accounts receivable outstanding at June 30, 2008.
Foreign exchange: Our functional currency is the U.S. dollar. Sales generated outside Canada are generally denominated in U.S. dollars. During fiscal Q2 2008 and 2007, we incurred a portion of our expenses in U.S. dollars and Canadian dollars. Changes in the value of the Canadian currency relative to the U.S. dollar may result in currency losses that may have an adverse effect on our operating results. During Q2 2008 and fiscal 2007 we maintained a portion of our cash resources in both U.S. and Canadian dollar term deposits. The Company does not have any foreign currency derivative instruments outstanding at June 30, 2008.
Litigation: Our Company has previously been named as a defendant in various proceedings arising in the course of our Company’s activities and arising from transactions relating to a previous business operated by our Company. Litigation arising from these matters may be time consuming, distracting and expensive. An adverse resolution to any of these proceedings may have a material adverse impact on our business and financial condition.
