Explanatory Note
On August 7, 2019, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to disclose the closing of a Company Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Ralf Kohler, described in Item 2.01 to that report, which agreement provides for the purchase of 51% of the equity and certain assets of SwissLink Carrier AG. This Amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K is filed to provide the required financial statements of the business acquired and pro forma financial information.
SECTION 2 - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2.01 COMPLETION OF ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.
As previously disclosed, on April 1, 2019, iQSTEL Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Company Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and between the Company and the Ralf Kohler (the “Seller”), which agreement provides for the purchase of 51% of the equity and certain assets of SwissLink Carrier AG (“SwissLink”) (www.swisslink-carrier.com), a Swiss corporation, by the Company.
The consideration for the acquisition consists of $500,000 USD, payable as follows:
$50,000 USD shall be paid in cash upon execution of the Purchase Agreement; and
The balance of $450,000 USD shall be paid at Closing in the form of 187,500 shares of common stock in the Company based upon an agreed upon price of $2.40 per share. Additional shares may be payable at Closing, if the Company’s stock is valued at less than $2.40 per share, to account for the full $450,000 USD.
Under the Purchase Agreement, the acquisition includes both the 51% equity interest in SwissLink and what are referred to as Additional Assets, which include telecommunications equipment, telecommunications platform software for international long distance voice exchange (VAMP) designed by Swisslink, intellectual rights of the VAMP, receivables, cash in banks, interconnection and service agreements, company information in file and telecommunication license rights for Switzerland.
SwissLink is indebted to the Seller in the principal amount of CHF 200,000 (approximately $ 200,514.19 USD) as evidenced by a loan agreement dated December 22th, 2019. Under the Purchase Agreement, SwissLink is to repay the full amount of principal plus interest in two years from execution of the Purchase Agreement.
At the execution of this Purchase Agreement, SwissLink has a debt with the Seller of CHF 1,937,077 (approximately $1,941,893.41 USD) by December 31th 2018. With the acquisition of the 51% of the equity of SwissLink, the Company is acquiring 51% of the loan for the payment of CHF 0.51 (approximately $ 0.51 USD) to the Seller, meaning that after the execution of this Purchase Agreement, SwissLink owes to the Seller CHF 949,167.73 (approximately $ 951,432.22 USD) that represent the 49% of the debt, and at the same time, Swisslink owes to the Company CHF 987,909.27 (approximately $ 990,236.62 USD) that represent 51% of this debt.
Further under the Purchase Agreement, the Company has secured an option to, exercisable at 365 days from Closing, to acquire the remaining 49% interest in SwissLink. The Purchase Agreement outlines the purchase price, which is estimated at minimum of $750,000 USD.
The parties to the Purchase Agreement further agreed to extend employment agreements of SwissLink to two individuals at SwissLink for a period of three years, and to Mr. Ralf Kohler (The Seller) for a period of five years as CEO/COO. The Company believes these positions will allow for a continuity of operations of SwissLink.
There shall be three directors of SwissLink, two of whom will be Messrs. Leandro Iglesias and Alvaro Quintana Cardona, officers of our Company. Mr. Ralf Kohler will also be a member of the board of directors of SwissLink.
The Purchase Agreement may be terminated if either the Company or SwissLink are deemed economically unviable or bankrupt; if during due diligence process there is discovered
The Closing of the Purchase Agreement was scheduled for 90 days from execution, and was subject to conditions, which include the following:
The Company’s board of directors approving the transaction;
Satisfactory due diligence of SwissLink by the Company;
SwissLink has prepared financial statements that are auditable by a PCAOB auditor.
On August 7, 2019, having completed all conditions under the Purchase Agreement, the Company closed the transaction with Seller, and issued 187,500 shares to Seller for the 51% equity interest and certain assets in Swisslink and another 510 shares to Seller for 51% of the loan in Swisslink.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, with respect to corporate organization, capitalization, corporate authority, financial statements and compliance with applicable laws. The representations and warranties of each party set forth in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the Purchase Agreement, and investors are not third-party beneficiaries of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, such representations and warranties (a) are subject to materiality and other qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement, which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors, (b) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Purchase Agreement and (c) may have been included in the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding any of the parties or their respective businesses.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
to the Shareholders of SwissLink Carrier AG, Zug
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of SwissLink Carrier AG (the Company), set out on pages 3 to 40 which comprise the income statement and statement of comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2018, the statement of financial position as at December 31, 2018, the statement of cash flows and the statement of changes in equity for the year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position of the Company as at December 31, 2018, and of its financial performance and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs).
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are independent of the Company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in Switzerland, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Material Uncertainty Related to Going Concern
We draw attention to Note 4 of the financial statements, which indicate that the Company incurred a net loss of CHF 273’054 during the year ended December 31, 2018 and, as of that date, the Company’s total liabilities exceeded its total assets by CHF 1’901’955. As stated in Note 4, these events or conditions, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and the measures taken to improve the financial situation. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with IFRSs, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
2.Basis of accounting (continued)
IFRS 16 replaces the current guidance in IAS 17 and is a far-reaching change in accounting by lessees in particular. Under IAS 17, lessees were required to make a distinction between a finance lease (on balance sheet) and an operating lease (off balance sheet). IFRS 16 requires lessees to recognize a lease liability reflecting future lease payments and a ‘right-of-use asset’ for virtually all lease contracts. Under IFRS 16, a contract is, or contains, a lease if the contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration.
The Company does not expect significant impacts from new pronouncements issued but not yet effective.
3.Significant accounting policies
Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). The principal accounting policies are set out below.
The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018 are the Company’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. For further information please refer to Note 24.
Functional and presentation currency
The Company’s functional currency is US Dollar (USD). These financial statements are presented in Swiss Francs (CHF). The company was incorporated in 2016 in Switzerland and since that date the Swiss Franc has been adopted as presentation currency. Amounts in functional and foreign currencies are translated into the presentation currency at the actual monthly exchange rates published by the Swiss Federal Tax Authority.
Rounding of amounts
All amounts disclosed in the financial statements and notes have been rounded off to the nearest currency unit.
Foreign currencies
Business transactions in currencies other than the entity’s functional currency (foreign currencies) are translated into the functional currency at the transaction rate. Monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the year-end balance sheet rate and the resulting foreign exchange gains and losses are presented within financial income and expense. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated.
Fair value measurement
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value measurement is based on the presumption that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability takes place either:
In the principal market for the asset or liability or
In the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the asset or liability
The principal or the most advantageous market must be accessible by the Company.
The fair value of an asset or a liability is measured using the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, assuming that market participants act in their economic best interest.
A fair value measurement of a non-financial asset takes into account a market participant’s ability to generate economic benefits from the asset’s highest and best use or by selling it to another market participant that would utilize the asset in its highest and best use.
The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs.
11
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
All assets and liabilities for which fair value is measured or disclosed in the financial statements are categorized within the fair value hierarchy. This is described, as follows, based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole:
Level 1 — Quoted (unadjusted) market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable
Level 3 — Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable
For assets and liabilities that are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company determines whether transfers have occurred between levels in the hierarchy by re-assessing categorization (based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole) at the end of each reporting period.
For the purpose of fair value disclosures, the Company has determined classes of assets and liabilities on the basis of the nature, characteristics and risks of the asset or liability and the level of the fair value hierarchy, as explained above.
Composition and valuation of balance sheet items
Current versus non-current classification
Assets and liabilities are presented in the statement of financial position based on current/non-current classification. An asset is current when it is:
Expected to be realized or intended to sell or consumed in the normal operating cycle
Held primarily for the purpose of trading
Expected to be realized within 12 months after the balance sheet date, or
Cash or cash equivalent unless restricted from being exchanged or used to settle a liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period
All other assets are classified as non-current. A liability is current when:
It is expected to be settled in the normal operating cycle
It is held primarily for the purpose of trading
It is due to be settled within twelve months after the reporting period, or
There is no unconditional right to defer the settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting period
All other liabilities are classified as non-current.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are classified as non-current assets and liabilities.
Financial assets
Classification
The Company classifies its financial assets in the following measurement categories:
a)those to be measured subsequently at fair value (either through other comprehensive income, or through the income statement), and
b)those measured at amortized cost.
For assets measured at fair value, gains and losses will either be recorded in the Income statement or other comprehensive income. For investments in debt instruments, this will depend on the business model in which the investment is held.
12
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
Initial recognition and measurement
At initial recognition, the Company measures a financial asset at its fair value plus, in the case of a financial asset not at fair value through profit or loss, transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition of the financial asset. Transaction costs of financial assets carried at fair value through profit or loss are expensed in the income statement. In the periods presented the Company does not have any financial assets categorized as FVTPL and FVOCI.
Subsequent measurements
Subsequent measurement of financial assets depends on the Company’s business model for managing the asset and the latter’s cash flow characteristics. The Company classifies its asset instruments into the following categories:
Amortized cost: Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows where those cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest are measured at amortized cost. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI): Assets that are held for collection of contractual cash flows and for selling the financial assets where the cash flows represent solely payments of principal and interest, are measured at fair value through other comprehensive income (FVOCI). Movements in the carrying amount are taken through OCI, except for the recognition of impairment gains or losses, interest revenue and foreign exchange gains and losses which are recognized in the Income statement. When the financial asset is derecognized, the cumulative gain or loss previously recognized in OCI is reclassified from equity to the income statement and recognized in other gains / (losses). Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income using the effective interest rate method.
Fair value through profit and loss (FVTPL): Assets that do not meet the criteria for amortized cost or FVOCI are measured at fair value through profit and loss. Interest income from these financial assets is included in other income.
De-recognition of financial assets
A financial asset is derecognized only when:
the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire;
the Company has transferred a financial asset in a transaction in which substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are transferred or in which the Company neither transfers nor retains substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership and it does not retain control of the financial asset.
Impairment of financial assets
The Company recognizes loss allowances for expected credit losses (ECLs) on financial assets measured at amortized cost. The Company measures loss allowances at an amount equal to lifetime ECLs, except for financial assets for which credit risk has not increased significantly since initial recognition; these are measured at 12-month ECLs.
For trade receivables, the Company applies the simplified approach permitted by IFRS 9, which requires lifetime ECLs to be recognized from initial recognition of the trade receivables.
When determining whether the credit risk of a financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition and when estimating ECLs, the Company considers reasonable and supportable information that is relevant and available without undue cost or effort. This includes both quantitative and qualitative information and analysis, based on the Company’s historical experience and informed credit assessment and including forward-looking information. The Company formulates a ,base-case, view of the future direction of relevant economic variables as well as a representative range of other possible forecast scenarios. This process involves developing additional economic scenarios and considering the relative probabilities of each outcome.
13
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
The Company assumes that the credit risk on a financial asset has increased significantly if it is more than 365 days past due. The Company considers a financial asset to be in default when:
the borrower is unlikely to pay its credit obligations to the Company in full, without recourse by the Company to actions such as realizing security (if any is held); or
the financial asset is more than 360 days past due.
Lifetime ECLs are the ECLs that result from all possible default events over the expected life of a financial instrument. 12-month ECLs are the portion of ECLs that result from default events that are possible within the 12 months after the reporting date (or a shorter period if the expected life of the instrument is less than 12 months). The maximum period considered when estimating ECLs is the maximum contractual period over which the Company is exposed to credit risk.
Measurement of ECLs
ECLs are a probability-weighted estimate of credit losses. Credit losses are measured as the present value of all cash shortfalls (i.e. the difference between the cash flows due to the Company in accordance with the contract and the cash flows that the Company expects to receive). ECLs are discounted at the effective interest rate of the financial asset.
Credit-impaired financial assets
At each reporting date, the Company assesses whether financial assets carried at amortized cost are credit-impaired. A financial asset is ,credit-impaired, when one or more events that have a detrimental impact on the estimated future cash flows of the financial asset have occurred.
Evidence that a financial asset is credit-impaired includes the following observable data:
significant financial difficulty of the borrower or issuer;
a breach of contract such as a default; or
it is probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or other financial reorganization.
Presentation of allowance for ECL in the statement of financial position Loss allowances for financial assets measured at amortized cost are deducted from the gross carrying amount of the assets.
Write-off
The gross carrying amount of a financial asset is written off on a case-by-case basis when the Company has no reasonable expectations of recovering a financial asset in its entirety or a portion thereof.
Cash and cash equivalents
These include cash in hand; cash in transit, balances in postal and bank accounts, as well as short- term time deposits with an original term not exceeding 90 days. Cash and cash equivalents are measured at cost.
Accounts receivable & other receivable
Trade receivables and other receivables are recognized initially at their transaction price and subsequently measured at amortized cost using the effective interest method, which includes the deduction of expected credit losses.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are carried at purchase or production cost less appropriate depreciation. In the case of an impairment loss, the appropriate charge is made to the income statement. Depreciation is charged on straight-line basis (difference between cost and residual value). For Hardware this period is usually 3-8 years.
The carrying values of plant and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.
14
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
The assets, residual values, useful lives and methods of depreciation are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each financial year end.
An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognized upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from its use or disposal. Any gain or loss arising on de-recognition of the asset (calculated as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset) at the date of the disposal is included in the income statement in the year the asset is derecognized.
Finance and operating leases
Assets acquired under lease agreements which effectively transfer substantially all the risks and rewards incidental to ownership from the lessor to the lessee are classified as finance leases. Finance leases on tangible fixed assets are capitalized at amounts equivalent to the lower of respective fair value of the tangible fixed asset or the estimated net present value of the future minimum lease payments plus any indirect costs associated with the lease. The same amount less finance costs is recorded correspondingly as a finance lease obligation. Assets under finance leases are amortized over the shorter of their estimated useful life and the term of the lease. The interest portion of the lease payment is recorded as interest expense in the income statement, calculated on the amortized cost.
Lease agreements which do not transfer substantially all risks and rewards to the Company are classified as operating leases. Payments are recorded pro-rata over the lease period. Rental costs for short-term operating leases are charged directly to the income statement on a straight-line basis. Operating leases are not included in the balance sheet; the corresponding obligations are fully reported in the notes.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired separately
Intangible assets acquired separately are measured on initial recognition at cost. Following initial recognition, intangible assets are carried at cost less any accumulated amortization and any accumulated impairment losses. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful life and amortization method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for accordingly.
The amortization expense on intangible assets with finite lives is recognized in the income statement in the expense category consistent with the function of the intangible asset.
Intangible assets held by the Company with finite useful lives include Software only.
Software is capitalized at cost and is amortized on a straight-line basis over their useful life, typically not exceeding 6 years.
Impairment of tangible and intangible assets excluding goodwill
Tangible and intangible assets (excluding goodwill) are assessed at each reporting date for indications that an asset may be impaired. If any such indication exists, or when annual impairment testing for an asset is required, the Company makes an estimate of the asset’s recoverable amount. The asset’s recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s or cash-generating unit,s fair value less costs of disposal and its value in use and is determined for an individual asset, unless the asset does not generate cash inflows that are largely independent of those from other assets or groups of assets. Where the carrying amount of an asset or a group of assets exceeds its recoverable amount, the asset is considered impaired and is written down to its recoverable amount. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or the group of assets.
An assessment is made at each reporting date as to whether there is any indication that previously recognized impairment losses may no longer exist or may have decreased. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount is estimated. A previously recognized impairment loss is reversed only if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the asset’s recoverable amount since the last impairment loss was recognized. If that is the case the carrying amount of the asset is increased to its recoverable amount. That increased amount cannot exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation, had no impairment loss been recognized for the asset in prior years. Such reversal is recognized in profit or loss. After such a reversal the depreciation charge is adjusted in future periods to allocate the asset’s revised carrying amount, less any residual value, on a systematic basis over its remaining useful life.
15
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
Retirement benefit costs
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. Payments made to state-managed retirement benefit schemes are dealt with as payments to defined contribution schemes where the Company’s obligations under the schemes are equivalent to those arising in a defined contribution retirement benefit scheme.
For defined benefit schemes, the cost of providing benefits is determined using the Projected Unit Credit Method, with actuarial valuations being carried out at each balance sheet date. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in full in the period in which they occur. They are recognized outside the income statement and are presented in other comprehensive income.
Past service cost is recognized immediately in the income statement in the period in which it occurs.
The retirement benefit obligation recognized in the balance sheet represents the present value of the defined obligation as adjusted for unrecognized past service cost, and as reduced by the fair value of the scheme assets. Any asset resulting from this calculation is limited to past service cost, plus the present value of available refunds and reductions in future contributions to the scheme.
Financial liabilities
Initial recognition and measurement
All financial liabilities are recognized initially at fair value and, in the case of financial liabilities not at FVTPL, net of directly attributable transaction costs.
Subsequent measurement
The measurement of financial liabilities depends on their classification, as described below:
Financial liabilities at amortized cost
Financial liabilities at fair value through profit or loss include financial liabilities held for trading and financial liabilities designated upon initial recognition as at fair value through profit or loss.
Loans and Borrowings
Borrowings are initially recognized at fair value, net of transaction cost incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortized cost. The transaction costs incurred for floating interest rate borrowings is amortized over the tenure of the loan based on the effective interest rate method.
De-recognition
A financial liability is derecognized when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. When an existing financial liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as the de-recognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability. The difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognized in the income statement.
Provisions, contingent liabilities and contingent assets
Provisions are recognized when the Company has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic resources will be required from the Company and amounts can be estimated reliably. The timing or amount of the outflow may still be uncertain.
Provisions are not recognized for future operating losses.
Provisions are measured at the estimated expenditure required to settle the present obligation, based on the most reliable evidence available at the reporting date, including the risks and uncertainties associated with the present obligation. Where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. Provisions are discounted to their present values, where the time value of money is material.
16
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
No liability is recognized if an outflow of economic resources as a result of present obligations is not probable. Such situations are disclosed as contingent liabilities unless the outflow of resources is remote.
Composition of items in the income statement
Revenue recognition
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. The Company recognizes revenue when it transfers control over a good or service to a customer. When the Company acts as principal, revenues are recorded gross. However, when, from an economic point of view, the Company acts only as a broker or agent, revenues are reported net of related costs.
The Company has entered into a number of interconnect agreements with other carriers. These agreements allow carriers to terminate traffic on their respective networks and to provide end-to-end routing of voice and data traffic.
The Entity is a provider of international telephone traffic around the globe, which trades international VoIP (voice over IP) telephone minutes through its trading-software platform. Besides VoIP-Revenues, there are no other revenue streams. Therefore, all of the Company’s revenues are recognized at a specific time, which is when the call has been completed. There are no revenues recognized over time.
There are no bonuses, kick-backs, etc.
Taxation
Income tax expense comprises current and deferred tax. It is recognized in profit or loss except items recognized directly in equity or in OCI.
Current income tax
Current tax comprises the expected tax payable or receivable on the taxable income or loss for the year and any adjustment to the tax payable or receivable in respect of previous years. The amount of current tax payable or receivable is the best estimate of the tax amount expected to be paid or received that reflects uncertainty related to income taxes, if any. It is measured using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Management periodically evaluates positions taken in tax returns with respect to situations in which applicable tax regulation is subject to interpretation. It establishes provisions where appropriate on the basis of amounts expected to be paid to the tax authorities.
Current tax assets and liabilities are offset only if certain criteria are met.
Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax bases used in the computation of taxable profit. Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences. Deferred tax assets are generally recognized for all deductible temporary differences to the extent that it is considered more likely than not that sufficient taxable profits will be available against which those deductible temporary differences can be utilized. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognized if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is considered that more likely than not no longer sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered.
17
Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
3.Significant accounting policies (continued)
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset realized, based on tax rates (and tax laws) that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Company expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. Deferred tax is charged or credited to the income statement, except when it relates to items charged or credited to other comprehensive income, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in other comprehensive income.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to set off current tax assets against current tax liabilities and when they relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the Company intends to settle its current tax assets and liabilities on a net basis.
4.Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, which are described in Note 3, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognized in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
Going concern
The current and prior year ended with a loss. Beginning in 2018 the Management and the Board of Directors took several measures to improve the financial situation. Due to these measures the Management expects to reach break-even in the financial year 2019. Until Q2 2019 there are no indicators, that this goal can not be reached.
Furthermore, the Board of directors successfully raised new money. Until Q2 2019, shareholders and third parties invested additional CHF 200,000.
Besides, it is planned that SwissLink will seek further investors in Q3 2019. For the sale of 51% of Company shares, a Letter of Intent (LOI) is already available.
Therefore, the Company has determined that it will have the ability to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future which as a minimum covers 12 months from the date of signing the Company’s financial statements. As such, the financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. For more details refer to Note 18.
Pension obligations
The Company provides employees with long-term employee benefits such as pensions. The long-term nature of these liabilities creates inherent uncertainties that are dependent on future events. Estimating the pension liability requires the Company to make an estimate of the expected return on plan assets, an appropriate discount rate, future salary increases, employee life expectancy and other projections. More details are disclosed in Note 15.

The above balance is shown gross. The provision for doubtful accounts amounts to kCHF -47 (2017: kCHF -55) of which 100% are attributable to receivables past due more than 180 days.
The directors consider that the carrying amount of trade accounts receivables is approximately equal to the fair value.
Past due but not impaired
As at 31 December 2018, trade receivables of CHF 469,255 (2017: CHF 890,373) were past due but not impaired. These relate to a number of independent customers for whom there is no recent history of default.
The other classes within trade and other receivables do not contain impaired assets and are not past due. Based on the credit history of these other classes, it is expected that these amounts will be received when due. The Company does not hold any collaterals in relation to these receivables.

15.Employee benefits – pension plan asset / liabilities
General information
The Company maintains one defined benefit plan in Switzerland. This plan complies with prevailing legal requirements to cover the employees in the event of death, disability and retirement. The plan is financed by employer and employee contributions in compliance with local legal and fiscal regulations.
The Swiss pension plans are governed by the Swiss Federal Law on Occupational Retirement, Survivors, and Disability Pension Plans (BVG), which stipulates that pension plans are to be managed by independent, legally autonomous units. The assets of the pension plan are held within a separate foundation and cannot revert to the employer. Pension plans are overseen by a regulator as well as by a state supervisory body.
The Company’s pension fund is administered by AXA Pension Solutions AG.
The funding requirements are based on the pension fund,s actuarial measurement framework set out in the funding policies of the plan. The Fund is based on a separate actuarial valuation performed for funding purposes and may therefore differ from those used in assessing defined benefit liabilities.
Changes in the present value of defined benefit obligation and plan assets for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 are as follows:

18. Financial risk management objectives and policies
Capital management
The objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, in order to provide returns for shareholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and to maintain an optimal capital structure. In order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the Company may repay capital to shareholders, issue new capital or sell assets to reduce debt.
By ensuring the Company adheres to defined debt/equity ratio covenant limits and other covenants under the Company’s financing arrangements, management meets the primary capital risk objective.
The Company’s policy is to keep the net debt to adjusted equity ratio below 4. The Company’s adjusted net debt to equity ratio was as follows.

Capital risk management
The Company’s board of directors has overall responsibility for establishment and oversight of the Company’s risk management framework. Risk management policies are established to identify and analyze the risks faced by the Company, to set appropriate risk limits and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. These related processes are regularly performed in order to reflect changes in market conditions and the Company’s activities.
The Company’s principal financial instruments comprise shareholder loans and cash. The main purpose of these financial instruments was to finance the operations of the Company. The Company has various other financial assets and liabilities such as trade receivables and payables, which arise directly from its operations.
The main risks arising from the Company’s financial instruments are credit, and liquidity risks. The Board reviews and determines policies for managing each of these risks, as summarized below. The general entrepreneurial risks include operational, strategic and legal risks which the Company also monitors, analyses and controls. The interest rate risk and the foreign currency risk is only minor for the Company. As of 31 December 2018, there is no interest-bearing loan. Furthermore, does the Company not have significant balance sheet items in foreign currencies.
Credit risk
Credit risk contains the danger of a financial loss that arises from one third party being unable or unwilling to fulfil its contractual payment obligations. The credit risk thus contains not only the immediate risk of default but also the risk of an impaired credit rating along with the risk of concentration of individual risk. The Company has a well distributed customer base. On one hand this helps to reduce the credit risk, on the other hand this may present some additional risk as a material portion of the business is done in very small transactions. The Company has set up a policy to minimize credit risk and monitor its clients. Key customers who wish to trade on credit terms are subject to credit verification procedures. In addition, receivable balances are monitored on an ongoing basis with the result that the Company’s exposure to bad debts was not significant.
The maximum exposure to the credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset. To reduce the possibility of bad debt, it is the Company’s policy to have an as short as possible trading term of payment from its customers, which is usually between 3-30 days. It is recognized however that in certain countries and for certain customers, this policy has to be extended. The Company therefore monitors, at an individual customer level, its accounts receivable by payment due date rather than the number of days from invoice date. No concentrations of credit risk are currently present.

Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
18. Financial risk management objectives and policies (continued)
A provision for bad debt is determined on both an individual basis and a general basis. An individual provision is determined when a customer disputes the amount due or if legal steps have been taken to recover the overdue amount. For all other amounts, a general bad debt provision is determined. Ageing and bad debt movements are disclosed in Note 9.
With respect to credit risk arising from other financial assets of the Company (e.g. cash and cash equivalents), the Company’s exposure to credit risk arises from the default of the counterparty, with a maximum amount equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the danger that the Company will be not able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due (e.g. settlement of its financial debt or paying its suppliers). Beyond net working capital and cash management, the Company mitigates liquidity risk by arranging borrowing facilities of varying terms mainly with the shareholder.
The table below reflects all contractually fixed pay–offs for settlement, interest and repayments resulting from recognized financial liabilities. The risk implied from the values shown in the table, reflects the one-sided scenario of cash outflow only. Trade payables and other financial liabilities mainly originate from the financing of assets used in ongoing operations such as property, plant, equipment and investments in working capital e.g. trade receivables. These assets are to be considered against the cash outflows mentioned.
The envisaged financing structure results in a well-balanced plan of cash flow in line with the financial and macroeconomic environment that allows the Company an improved control of the liquidity risk in the coming years. Unused loan facilities at the end of 2018 amounted to CHF 0 (2017: CHF 0). Current budget and midterm planning shows the Company’s ability to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity headroom.

Notes to the financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018
23.Related party disclosures (continued)
Definition of related parties
Until 2018 the Company was a subsidiary of Swissphone Holding AG and therefore part of the Swissphone Group. As of 31. December 2017 and 1 January 2017 respectively for the period 2017 all subsidiaries of Swissphone Holding AG are a related party. As of 31. December 2018 and the period 2018 the Swissphone Group is third party.
Furthermore, as of 31. December 2018, 31 December 2017 and 1 January 2017, as well as the periods 2018 and 2017 the Lorymo AG, Mr. Ralf Köhler and Ms. Dinah Sarah Köhler are related parties.
24.Transition to IFRS
As stated in Note 2, these are the Company’s first financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRSs.
The accounting policies set out in Notes 3 have been applied in preparing the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, the comparative information presented for the year ended 31 December 2017 and in preparation of an opening IFRS statement of financial position at 1 January 2017 (the Company’s date of transition to IFRSs).
In preparing its opening IFRS statement of financial position, the Company has adjusted amounts reported previously in its financial statements prepared in accordance with Swiss Code of Obligations. An explanation of how the transition from Swiss Code of Obligations to IFRSs has affected the Company’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows is set out in the following tables and the Notes that accompany the tables.
Exemptions applied
IFRS 1 allows first-time adopters certain exemptions from the retrospective application of certain requirements under IFRS. The Company has applied the following exemptions:
IFRS 3 Business Combinations should not be applied to either acquisitions of subsidiaries that are considered businesses under IFRS, or acquisitions of interests in associates and joint ventures that occurred before 1 January 2017. Use of this exemption means that the Swiss Code of Obligations carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, that are required to be recognized under IFRS, is their deemed cost at the date of the acquisition.

Notes to the reconciliation
Notes to the transition as of January 1, 2017
A)The Company has applied IAS 19 Employee Benefits to its post-employment benefit plan: The effect is to increase non-current employee benefit liabilities by CHF 146,381 at 1 January 2017. A deferred tax asset was capitalized using the Company’s tax rate of 17%, which resulted in a deferred tax asset of CHF 24,885.
B)Reclass of holiday/social security accrual
C)Capitalization of unused tax losses of CHF 1,155,160 using the Company’s tax rate of 17%, which resulted in a deferred tax asset of CHF 196,377.
D)The amount of CHF 15,000 is related to a business combination before the transition date to IFRS. The Company applies the exemption, that IFRS 3 Business Combinations should not be applied to either acquisitions of subsidiaries that are considered businesses under IFRS, or acquisitions of interests in associates and joint ventures that occurred before 1 January 2017. The amount is fully eliminated against retained earnings. No deferred tax effect was accounted for, as the impairment or depreciation of such a Goodwill is not taxable expense according to Swiss tax law.
E)Reclass Software to intangible assets
F)Adjustment of bad debt reserve according to IFRS 9 and related tax effect.

On August 7, 2019, having completed all conditions under the Purchase Agreement, the Company closed the transaction with Seller, and paid $50,000 and issued 343,512 shares of common stock at $1.31 per share to the Seller for the 51% equity interest and certain assets in SwissLink and another 510 shares to Seller for 51% of the loan in SwissLink.
The consideration for the acquisition consists of $500,000 USD, payable as follows:
$50,000 USD shall be paid in cash upon execution of the Purchase Agreement; and
The balance of $450,000 USD shall be paid at Closing in the form of 343,512 shares of common stock in the Company based upon an agreed upon, as adjusted, price of $1.31 per share.
Under the Purchase Agreement, the acquisition includes both the 51% equity interest in SwissLink and what are referred to as Additional Assets, which include telecommunications equipment, telecommunications platform software for international long distance voice exchange (VAMP) designed by SwissLink, intellectual rights of the VAMP, receivables, cash in banks, interconnection and service agreements, company information in file and telecommunication license rights for Switzerland.
NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRO FORMA PRESENTATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are based on the Company’s and SwissLink’s historical consolidated financial statements as adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of SwissLink and the cash and shares issued as part of the acquisition. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 give effect to the SwissLink acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2018. The unaudited proforma combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2019 gives effect to the SwissLink acquisition as if it had occurred on March 31, 2019.
Historical financial information has been adjusted in the pro forma balance sheet to pro forma events that are: (1) directly attributable to the Acquisition; (2) factually supportable; and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the Company’s results of operations. The pro forma adjustments presented in the pro forma combined balance sheet and statement of operations are described in Note 4— Pro Forma Adjustments.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. These companies may have performed differently had they actually been combined for the periods presented. You should not rely on the pro forma combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the combined companies will experience after the acquisition.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are presented in United States Dollars (“USD”). The financial statements of SwissLink have been translated from Swiss Francs (“CHF”) to USD using the closing foreign exchange rate as at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 at a rate of one (1) CHF to USD of $1.0052 and $1.017, respectively.
NOTE 2. ACCOUNTING PERIODS PRESENTED
Certain pro forma adjustments were made to conform SwissLink accounting policies to the Company’s accounting policies as noted below.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of March 31, 2019 is presented as if the acquisition had occurred on March 31, 2019 and combines the historical balance sheet of the Company at March 31, 2019 and the historical balance sheet of the SwissLink at March 31, 2019.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and has been prepared by combining the Company’s historical consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019, with the historical statement of operations of SwissLink for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2018 has been prepared by combining the Company’s historical consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2018, with the historical statement of operations of SwissLink for the year ended December 31, 2018.

NOTE 3. PRELIMINARY PURCHASE PRICE ALLOCATION

The final purchase price allocation may vary based on final appraisals, valuations and analysis of fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Accordingly, pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for illustrative purposes.
