NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1 ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

  a) Organization

 

On May 12, 2016, QPAGOS (formerly known as Asiya Pearls, Inc.), a Nevada corporation (“QPAGOS”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Qpagos Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Qpagos Corporation”), and Qpagos Merge, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of QPAGOS (“Merger Sub”).  Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on May 12, 2016, the merger was consummated, and Qpagos Corporation and Merger Sub merged (the “Merger”), with Qpagos Corporation continuing as the surviving corporation of the Merger. 

 

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger, each share of Qpagos Corporation’s capital stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was converted into the right to receive two shares of QPAGOS common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”). Additionally, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon consummation of the Merger, QPAGOS assumed all of Qpagos Corporation’s warrants issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger, which were exercisable for approximately 6,219,200 shares of Common Stock, respectively, as of the date of the Merger. Prior to and as a condition to the closing of the Merger, the then-current QPAGOS stockholder of 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock agreed to return to QPAGOS 4,975,000 shares of Common Stock held by such holder to QPAGOS and the then-current QPAGOS stockholder retained an aggregate of 25,000 shares of Common Stock and the other stockholders of QPAGOS retained 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock. Therefore, immediately following the Merger, Qpagos Corporation’s former stockholders held 49,929,000 shares of QPAGOS common stock which represented approximately 91% of the outstanding Common Stock.

 

The Merger was treated as a reverse acquisition of QPAGOS, a public shell company, for financial accounting and reporting purposes. As such, Qpagos Corporation was treated as the acquirer for accounting and financial reporting purposes while QPAGOS was treated as the acquired entity for accounting and financial reporting purposes. Further, as a result, the historical financial statements that are reflected in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and that will be reflected in the Company’s financial statements filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) will be those of Qpagos Corporation, and the Company’s assets, liabilities and results of operations will be consolidated with the assets, liabilities and results of operations of Qpagos Corporation.

 

QPAGOS Corporation (“QPAGOS”) was incorporated on May 1, 2015 under the laws of the state of Delaware to effectuate a reverse merger transaction with Qpagos, S.A.P.I. de C.V. (Qpagos) and Redpag Electrónicos S.A.P.I. de C.V. (Redpag). Each of the entities were incorporated in November 2013 in Mexico.

 

QPagos, S.A.P.I. de C.V. was formed to process payment transactions for service providers it contracts with, and Redpag Electrónicos S.A.P.I. de C.V. was formed to deploy and operate kiosks as a distributor.  

 

On May 27, 2016 Asiya changed its name to QPAGOS. QPAGOS and its direct and indirect subsidiaries Qpagos Corporation, QPagos, S.A.P.I. de C.V. and Redpag Electrónicos S.A.P.I. de C.V., will be referred to hereafter as “the Company”.

 

On June 1, 2016, the board of directors changed the Company’s fiscal year end from October 31 to December 31.

 

  b) Description of the business

 

QPAGOS Corporation, through its subsidiaries Qpagos S.A.P.I de C.V. (“Qpagos”) and Redpag Electronicos S.A.P.I de C.V. (“Redpag”), provides physical and virtual payment services to the Mexican market. The Company provides an integrated network of kiosks, terminals and payment channels that enable consumers in Mexico to deposit cash, convert it into a digital form and remit the funds to any merchant in our network quickly and securely. The Company helps consumers and merchants connect more efficiently in markets and consumer segments, such as Mexico, that are largely cash-based and lack convenient alternatives for consumers to pay for goods and services in physical, online and mobile environments. For example, our licensed technology can be used to pay bills, add minutes to mobile phones, purchase transportation and tickets, shop online or at a retail store, buy digital services or send money to a friend or relative.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

 

  a) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments), which the Company considers necessary, for a fair presentation of those financial statements. The results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2018 may not necessarily be indicative of results that may be expected for any succeeding quarter or for the entire fiscal year. The information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements of QPAGOS for the year ended December 31, 2018, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 9, 2019. 

 

All amounts referred to in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are in United States Dollars ($) unless stated otherwise.

 

  b) Principles of Consolidation

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary and its indirect subsidiaries. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. The entities included in these consolidated financial statements are as follows:

 

QPAGOS – Parent Company

Qpagos Corporation – 100% owned

Qpagos, S.A.P.I de C.V., a Mexican entity (99.996% owned)

Redpag Electrónicos, S.A.P.I. de C.V., a Mexican entity (99.990% owned)

 

  c) Mexican Operations

 

The financial statements of the Company’s Mexican operations are measured using local currencies as their functional currencies.

 

The Company translates the assets and liabilities of its Mexican subsidiaries at the exchange rates in effect at period end and the results of operations at the average rate throughout the period. The translation adjustments are recorded directly as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, while transaction gains (losses) are included in net income (loss). All sales to customers are in Mexico.

 

  d) Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions, which are evaluated on an ongoing basis, that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the amounts of revenues and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates and judgments. In particular, significant estimates and judgments include those related to; the estimated useful lives for plant and equipment, the fair value of warrants and stock options granted for services or compensation, estimates of the probability and potential magnitude of contingent liabilities, derivative liabilities, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets due to continuing operating losses, those related to revenue recognition and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

  

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate could change in the near-term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

  e) Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur.

 

The Company’s management assesses such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment.

 

If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a material loss has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potential material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or is probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable and material would be disclosed. Loss contingencies considered to be remote by management are generally not disclosed unless they involve guarantees, in which case the guarantee would be disclosed.

 

  f) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted the guidance of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 for fair value measurements which clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.

 

Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

 

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, other current assets, other assets, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and notes payable, approximate fair value due to the relatively short period to maturity for these instruments. The Company did not identify any other assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with the accounting guidance.

 

ASC 825-10 “Financial Instruments ” allows entities to voluntarily choose to measure certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value (fair value option). The fair value option may be elected on an instrument-by-instrument basis and is irrevocable, unless a new election date occurs. If the fair value option is elected for an instrument, unrealized gains and losses for that instrument should be reported in earnings at each subsequent reporting date. The Company did not elect to apply the fair value option to any outstanding instruments.

 

  g) Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company’s operations will be subject to significant risk and uncertainties including financial, operational, regulatory and other risks associated, including the potential risk of business failure. The recent global economic crisis has caused a general tightening in the credit markets, lower levels of liquidity, increases in the rates of default and bankruptcy, and extreme volatility in credit, equity and fixed income markets. These conditions not only limit the Company’s access to capital, but also make it difficult for its customers, vendors and the Company to accurately forecast and plan future business activities.

 

The Company’s operations are carried out in Mexico. Accordingly, the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations may be influenced by the political, economic and legal environment in Mexico and by the general state of that economy. The Company’s results may be adversely affected by changes in governmental policies with respect to laws and regulations, anti-inflationary measures, and rates and methods of taxation, among other things.

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

  h) Adoption of accounting standards

 

  In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FSAB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”), No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASC 842)

 

The amendments in this update establishes a comprehensive new lease accounting model. The new standard: (a) clarifies the definition of a lease; (b) requires a dual approach to lease classification similar to current lease classifications; and (c) causes lessees to recognize leases on the balance sheet as a lease liability with a corresponding right-of-use asset for leases with a lease-term of more than twelve months. The new standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, including a number of optional practical expedients that entities may elect to apply. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842): Targeted Improvements, an update which provides another transition method, the prospective transition method, which allows entities to initially apply the new lease standard at the adoption date and recognize a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. The Company adopted the new standard on January 1, 2019 using the prospective transition method.

 

The Company has identified all leases and reviewed the leases to determine the impact of ASC 842 on its unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has elected to apply all of the practical expedients to all leases, which include not reassessing (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases, and (3) initial direct costs for any existing leases. The adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the consolidated balance sheet on January 1, 2019 of MXN Pesos 639,400 ($32,996) and the subsequent amortization of the asset and the lease liability.

 

  i) Recent accounting pronouncements

 

The FASB issued several updates during the period, none of these standards are either applicable to the Company or require adoption at a future date and are not expected to have a material impact on the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

  j) Reporting by segment

 

No segmental information is required as the Company currently only has one segment of business, providing physical and virtual payment services in the Mexican Market.

 

  k) Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, the Company had no cash equivalents.

 

The Company assesses credit risk associated with cash by periodically evaluating the credit quality of its primary financial institution in the United States. The balance at times may exceed federally insured limits. At March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, cash balances in the United States did not exceed the federally insured limit.

 

  l) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, which is estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company has a standardized approach to estimate and review the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues, which may impact the collectability of these receivables or reserve estimates. Revisions to the allowance for doubtful accounts estimates are recorded as an adjustment to bad debt expense. Receivables deemed uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts at the time such receivables are written-off. Recoveries of receivables previously written-off are recorded as credits to the allowance for doubtful accounts. There were no recoveries during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

  m) Cost Method Investments

 

Investee companies not accounted for under the consolidation or the equity method are accounted for under the cost method of accounting. Under this method, the Company’s share of earnings or losses of such investee companies is not included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet or statement of operations and comprehensive loss. However, impairment charges are recognized in the condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. If circumstances suggest that the value of the investee company has subsequently recovered, such recovery is not recorded. There is no impairment of investment at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

 

  n) Inventory

 

The Company primarily values inventories at net realizable value applied on a first-in, first-out basis. The Company identifies and writes down its excess and obsolete inventories to net realizable value based on usage forecasts, order volume and inventory aging. With the development of new products, the Company also rationalizes its product offerings and will write-down discontinued product to the lower of cost or net realizable value.

 

  o) Advances received from customers

 

Other than the sale of kiosks to customers, the provision of services through the Company’s kiosks is conducted on a cash basis. Customers are required to deposit cash with the Company to meet anticipated demand for services provided through kiosks either owned or operated by them. The services provided through the customer owned or operated kiosks are deducted from the deposits held on their behalf, the Company requires that these deposits be replenished as and when the services are provided.

 

  p) Plant and equipment

 

Plant and equipment is stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Plant and equipment with costs greater than $1,000 are capitalized and depreciated. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives of the assets are as follows:

 

Description Estimated Useful Life
Kiosks 7 years
Computer equipment 3 years
Leasehold improvements Lesser of estimated useful life or life of lease
Office equipment 10 years

 

The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred. When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

  q) Intangibles

 

All of our intangible assets are subject to amortization. We evaluate the recoverability of intangible assets periodically by taking into account events or circumstances that may warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate the asset may be impaired. Where intangibles are deemed to be impaired we recognize an impairment loss measured as the difference between the estimated fair value of the intangible and its book value.

 

i) License Agreements

 

License agreements acquired by the Company are reported at acquisition value less accumulated amortization and impairments.

 

ii) Amortization

 

Amortization is reported in the statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the intangible assets, unless the useful life is indefinite. Amortizable intangible assets are amortized from the date that they are available for use. The estimated useful life of the license agreement is five years which is the expected period for which we expect to derive a benefit from the underlying license agreements.

 

  r) Long-Term Assets

 

Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.

 

  s) Revenue Recognition

 

The Company’s revenue recognition policy is consistent with the requirements of Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 606, Revenue.

 

Our revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services are transferred to a customer, in an amount that reflects the consideration that the Company expects to receive in exchange for those services. The Company derives its revenues from the sale of its services, as defined below. The Company applies the following five steps in order to determine the appropriate amount of revenue to be recognized as it fulfills its obligations under each of its revenue transactions:

 

  i. identify the contract with a customer;

 

  ii. identify the performance obligations in the contract;

 

  iii. determine the transaction price;

 

  iv. allocate the transaction price to performance obligations in the contract; and

 

  v. recognize revenue as the performance obligation is satisfied.

2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES (continued)

 

  s) Revenue Recognition (continued)

 

The Company has the following sources of revenue which is recognized on the basis described below.

 

  Revenue from the sale of services .

 

Prepaid services are acquired from providers and is sold to end-users through kiosks that the Company owns or kiosks that are owned by third parties. The Company recognizes the revenue on the sale of these services when the end-user deposits funds into the terminal and the prepaid service is delivered to the end-user. The revenue is recognized at the gross value, including margin, of the prepaid service to the Company, net of any value-added tax which is collected on behalf of the Mexican Revenue Authorities.

 

  Payment processing provided to end-users

 

The Company provides a secure means for end-users to pay for certain services, such as utilities through our kiosks. The Company earns either a fixed per-transaction fee or a fixed percentage of the service sold. The Company acts as a collection agent and recognizes the payment processing fee, net of any value-added taxes collected on behalf of the Mexican Revenue Authorities, when the funds are deposited into the kiosk and the customer has settled his liability or has acquired a prepaid service.

 

  Revenue from the sale of kiosks.

 

The Company imports, assembles and sell kiosks that are used to generate the revenues discussed above. Revenue is recognized on the full value of the kiosks sold, net of any valued added taxation collected on behalf of the Mexican Revenue Authorities, when the customer takes delivery of the kiosk and all the risks and rewards of ownership are passed to the customer.

 

The Company does not enter into any leasing of kiosks arrangements with customers and the Company does not generate any revenues from merchants who access its terminals as yet.

 

3 GOING CONCERN

 

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes the Company will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. The Company has incurred a loss since inception resulting in an accumulated deficit of $19,322,768 as of March 31, 2019 and has not generated sufficient revenue to cover its operating expenditure, raising substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition to operational expenses, as the Company executes its business plan, additional capital resources will be required. The Company will need to raise capital in the near term in order to continue operating and executing its business plan. The ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company generating profitable operations in the future and/or obtaining the necessary financing to meet its obligations and repay its liabilities arising from normal business operations when they come due. The Company’s plan is to expand its market penetration by deploying more kiosks through various channels, thereby increasing revenues, in addition, the Company intends to raise additional equity or loan funds to meet its short-term working capital needs. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classifications of liabilities that may result from the possible inability of the Company to continue as a going concern for at least the next twelve months from the date the financial statements were issued.

6 LEASES

 

Adoption of ASC Topic 842, "Leases"

 

On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Topic 842 using the prospective transition method applied to leases that were in place as of January 1, 2019. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2019 are presented under Topic 842, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company’s historic accounting under Topic 840. The Company's lease consist of an operating lease that relate to a real estate agreement entered into in December 2016.

 

Practical Expedients and Elections

 

The Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance, which allowed the Company to carryforward its historical lease classification, the Company’s assessment on whether a contract is or contains a lease, and its initial direct costs for any leases that exist prior to adoption of the new standard.

   

Discount Rate

 

To determine the present value of minimum future lease payments for operating leases at January 1, 2019, the Company was required to estimate a rate of interest that it would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment (the "incremental borrowing rate" or "IBR").

 

The Company determined the appropriate IBR by identifying a reference rate and making adjustments that take into consideration financing options and certain lease-specific circumstances. For the reference rate, the Company used the Mexican Mortgage interest rate at the time of entering into the agreement and compared that rate to the Company’s weighted average cost of funding at the time of entering into the operating lease. The Company determined that 10.65% was an appropriate incremental borrowing rate to apply to its real-estate operating lease.

The computation of diluted net loss per share does not assume the issuance of common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect on net loss per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, all convertible debt and warrants, were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF

OPERATIONS

 

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with and is qualified in its entirety by our audited annual financial statements and the related notes thereto, each of which appear on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 9, 2019. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, as described under the heading “Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements. The Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations below is based upon only the financial performance of Qpagos.

 

Overview and Financial Condition

 

We are a provider of next generation physical and virtual payment services that we introduced to the Mexican market in the third quarter of 2014. We have a ten-year renewable exclusive license agreement for the use of technology that can be used to perform services that are similar to services that have been successfully deployed with this technology in several European, Asian, North and South American countries.

 

We provide an integrated network of kiosks, terminals and payment channels that enable consumers to deposit cash, convert it into a digital form and remit the funds to any merchant in our network quickly and securely. We help consumers and merchants connect more efficiently in markets and consumer segments, such as Mexico, that are largely cash-based and lack convenient alternatives for consumers to pay for goods and services in physical, online and mobile environments. For example, we license technology that can be used to pay bills, add minutes to mobile phones, purchase transportation tickets, shop online, buy digital services or send money to third parties.

 

Our current focus is on Mexico which remains a cash-dominated society for retail consumer payments with approximately 80% of the value of personal payments exchanged in cash (Bank of Mexico). The penetration of electronic payment services, such as credit and debit cards and point of sale terminals, significantly lags behind more developed economies. We believe that opportunities for our services in Mexico are vast. With over 109 million mobile subscribers in Mexico, 85% of which are under prepaid plans, mobile top-up alone, was a $13 billion business in 2017 as reported by the Competitive Intelligence Unit (the “CIU”). We believe that there is opportunity for growth in the Mexican market and we have expanded to service providers beyond the mobile telephone operators to service provides of electricity, transportation, utilities, municipal services and taxes, consumer credit installments, insurance premiums, and many more.

 

Our primary strategy in Mexico to date has been the attraction of service providers as well as the deployment of kiosks through Redpag Electrónicos, our kiosk management subsidiary. During the three months ended March 31, 2019 we generated net revenues of $1,236,022 as compared to $1,464,789 for the three months ended March 31, 2018, a decrease of $228,587 or 15.61%. Our primary source of revenue are fees we receive for processing payments made by consumers to service providers. We also generate revenue from non-payment services such as kiosk sales. Qpagos Corporation currently has in excess of 140 service providers integrated into its payment gateway, which includes all mobile phone providers in Mexico as well as most utility companies, financial services, entertainment venues, the national lottery’s Pronosticos and others. As of March 31, 2019, Qpagos Corporation deployed over 224 kiosks and terminals and we service an additional 440 kiosks of independent distributors. Our kiosks and terminals can be found at convenience stores, next to metro stations, retail stores, airport terminals, education centers, and malls in major urban centers, as well as many small and rural towns.

Management Discussion and Analysis of financial condition

 

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2019 and 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of any contingent liabilities at the financial statement date and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. On an on-going basis, we review our estimates and assumptions. The estimates are based on our historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 and March 31, 2018

 

Net revenue

 

Net revenues in our Mexican operations were $1,236,202 and $1,464,789 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $228,587 or 15.6%. Our primary revenue generating operations are based in Mexico and our functional currency is the Mexican Peso. Our revenue in Mexican Pesos decreased to MXN 23,740,755 from MXN 27,445,313 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of MXN 3,704,558 or 13.5%. The decrease in revenue in MXN Pesos terms is primarily due to a decrease in the value of prepaid airtime sold of MXN 3,875,709 offset by an increase in commissions earned. The average US$ exchange rate has strengthened against the MXN Pesos over the prior comparable period, from $18.7367 to $19.20459 or 2.49%, which results in a lower revenue growth in US$ terms of $30,870.

  

  Cost of goods sold

 

Cost of goods sold in our Mexican operations were $1,224,184 and $1,520,666 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $296,482 or 19.50%. Our cost of sales from our Mexican operations, in Mexican Pesos decreased to MXN 23,509,941 from MXN 28,492,276 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of MXN 4,982,337 or 17.49%. The decrease in cost of sales in MXN Pesos terms is primarily due to the decrease in the value of prepaid airtime sold. Cost of goods consists primarily of services acquired from third parties, such as prepaid airtime and the cost of the kiosks and any retrofitted components. Also included in cost of goods sold is depreciation related to kiosks that are used in the production of income. Depreciation expense was $15,065 and $9,905, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of $5,160. The average US $ exchange rate has strengthened against the MXN Pesos over the prior period, from $18.7367 to $19.20459 or 2.49%, which results in a lower cost of sales in US $ terms of $30,570.

  

Gross profit (loss)

 

Gross profit (loss) in our Mexican operations was $12,018 and $(55,877) for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of $67,895 or 121.5%. The components of gross profit (loss) include the following:

 

  Gross profit (loss) on sales of services was $5,069 and ($53,602), for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of $58,671 or 116%. The increase in gross profit was due to an improvements in margins earned due to accounting adjustments made in the prior period affecting the gross profit earned;
  Gross profit (loss) on kiosks was $2,409 and ($4,086) for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of $6,495 or 159%.  An inventory adjustment to kiosk cost of sales affected the prior period gross margin.
  Other gross profit was $19,605 and $11,715 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of $7,890 or 67.3%. The cost of sales expense consists primarily of repairs and maintenance expenditure on kiosks and is dependent on the amount of activity during the quarter, trends in this expense are not easily identifiable as the majority of the repair work in on a needs only basis.
  Included in gross profit is depreciation related to those kiosks that are used in the production of income.  Depreciation expense was $15,065 and $9,905, for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, an increase of $5,160 or 52.09%. This is primarily due to an increase in the number of kiosks in use.

General and administrative expenses

 

General and administrative expenses were $412,971 and $560,078 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $147,107 or 26.3%. We incur operating expenditure both in Mexico and in the US, where we maintain a corporate office and incur certain expenditure on consultants, licensing and public reporting activities.

  

  i. The general and administrative expenditure in Mexico increased to MXN 3,316,300 ($172,683) from MXN 3,295,768 ($175,899) for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of MXN 20,532 or 0.6%.

  

ii. The general administrative expenses incurred in the US, during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $240,289 and $384,179, respectively, a decrease of $143,890 or 37.5%, primarily due to the following:

 

capital raising fees of $14,000 and $119,224 for the three months March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $105,224 or 88.3%, primarily due to fewer convertible notes issued during the current period.

 

Consulting fees of $70,877 and $116,558 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $45,681 or 39.2%, primarily due to the rationalization of expenses to reduce monthly operating costs.

 

Depreciation and amortization

 

Depreciation and amortization expense were $11,303 and $12,406 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $1,103 or 8.9%. The decrease is primarily due to a lower depreciation charge in our Mexican operations related to non-productive assets. There has been no additions to these assets over the prior period and depreciation has decreased as assets become fully depreciated. 

 

Other expense

 

Other expense was $360,672 and $2,478,599 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $2,117,927 or 85.4%. Other expense consists of losses realized on the conversion of convertible notes into equity at conversion prices ranging from 38% to 40% below current market prices. During the three month period ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, $310,259 and $1,778,521 of convertible notes were respectively converted to equity.

 

Interest expense, net

 

Interest expense was $631,237 and $1,245,786 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $614,549 or 49.3%. The decrease consists primarily of the amortization of debt discount on convertible notes of $541,146 and $1,143,583 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $602,437 due to the decrease in funding through convertible notes during the past quarter and interest expense of $90,091 and $102,203 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $12,112, the decrease is primarily due to the conversion of high coupon equipment loans in the prior period to cheaper convertible debt, despite overall debt balances increasing over the prior period.

 

Derivative liability movements

 

Derivative liability movements were $542,525 and $2,531,332 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $1,988,807 or 78.6%. The derivative liability arose due to the issuance of convertible securities with variable conversion prices and no floor conversion price. The credit during the current period represents the mark-to-market of the derivative liability outstanding as of March 31, 2019 and the release of derivative liabilities relating to notes converted during the current period.

 

Foreign currency (loss) gain

 

The foreign currency (loss) gain was ($5,203) and $152,931 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $158,134 or 103.4%. The decrease is primarily due to the decrease in US$ denominated intercompany balances, as a significant portion of the balance was capitalized in the prior period. 

 

Net loss

 

We incurred a net loss of $866,843 and $1,668,483 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $801,640 or 48.0%, primarily due to the gross profit realized during the quarter, the decreased loss realized on convertible note conversions during the period and amortization of debt discount during the current period, as discussed above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

To date, our primary sources of cash have been funds raised primarily from the sale of our debt securities as well as revenue derived from operations.

 

We incurred an accumulated deficit of $19,322,768 through March 31, 2019 and incurred negative cash flow from operations of $131,081 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. We have spent, and need to continue to spend, substantial amounts in connection with implementing our business strategy, including our planned product development effort and will be required to raise additional funding.

 

We will need to generate additional revenue from operations and/or obtain additional financing to pursue our business strategy, repay our outstanding note obligations and take advantage of business opportunities that may arise. To meet our financing needs, we are considering multiple alternatives, including, but not limited to, additional equity financings and, debt financings and/or funding from partnerships. There can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any such transactions on acceptable terms or otherwise and may have to significantly curtail our operations.

 

At March 31, 2019, we had cash of $72,137 and a negative working capital of $3,714,546, including a derivative liability of $1,576,031, after eliminating the derivative liability our working capital deficit is $2,138,515. We believe that the current cash balances together with revenue anticipated to be generated from operations will not be sufficient to meet our current working capital needs and as mentioned above, we will seek further funding from either equity issues or further debt funding, should we not be successful, we may have to curtail our operations significantly.

 

We utilized cash of $254,409 and $308,749 in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, a decrease of $54,340 or 17.6%. The decrease is primarily due to the following; (i) the decrease in net loss of $801,640 discussed above; (ii) the decrease in derivative liability movements of $1,988,807 due to lower volatility of stock prices utilized in the calculation and the conversion of debt during the period; (iii) the net movement in working capital of $194,709 due to effective working capital management; offset by (iv) the movement in the loss on conversion of debt to equity of $(2,110,087) due to the amount of debt conversions during the current period declining over the prior period; and (v) the movement in amortization of debt discount of $601,971, as fewer new notes were issued during the current period.

 

We had no investment in property and equipment for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and minimal investment of $1,800 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. During the current period we sold a capitalized kiosk for gross proceeds of $4,166.

 

We funded our operations and increased our cash balances by raising an additional $252,000 through debt issuances.

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2019 we raised an additional $75,000 in convertible debt funding, and an additional $45,000 in promissory notes.

 

Other than amounts owed under convertible notes, we have minimal commitments which include the office facility lease agreement with a future commitment as of March 31, 2019 of $30,393 for the remainder of 2019, subject to exchange rate changes.

 

We entered into an additional ten-year licensing agreement with the Licensor on May 1, 2015, whereby we are committed to pay an annual license fee in quarterly installments of $5,000 ($20,000 per annum) to the Licensor for an exclusive license for the Mexican market of certain revenue payment services.

 

Our primary financial commitments as of the date hereof are payments owed under the License Agreement. The minimum commitments due under the license agreement is summarized as follows:

 

      Amount  
         
2019       20,100  
2020       20,100  
2021       20,100  
2022       20,100  
2023 and thereafter       47,067  
      $ 127,467

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”), the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) who is also its interim Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s CEO who also serves as its interim CFO concluded that due to a lack of segregation of duties and insufficient controls over review and accounting for certain complex transactions, that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2019 were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, was recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s CEO, who also serves as its interim CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Company intends to retain additional individuals to remedy the ineffective controls. We have begun to take actions that we believe will substantially remediate the material weaknesses identified. In response to the identification of our material weaknesses, we are in the process of expanding our finance and accounting staff. However, we cannot assure you that our internal control over financial reporting, as modified, will enable us to identify or avoid material weaknesses in the future.

  

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that occurred during our fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
