During the first fiscal quarter of 2018, the Company implemented a plan to
abandon the mobility solution operation. The Company has determined that the
mobility solution operation represents a component and a reportable segment of
the Company. According to the plan of abandonment, the Company gradually ceased
accepting any new business during first fiscal quarter of 2018 and settled all
the remaining orders and obligations from mobility solution by end of

There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or achieving and maintaining profitable operations in the future to enable it to meet its obligations as they come due and consequently continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional financing in the future to fund its operations and it is currently working on securing this funding through corporate collaborations, public or private equity offerings or debt financings. Sales of additional equity securities by the Company would result in the dilution of the interests of existing shareholders. There can be no assurance that financing will be available when required.
The Company expects the forgoing, or a combination thereof, to meet the Company's anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months; however, these conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the Company will continue as a going concern, which presumes that it will be able to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of business as they come due. These consolidated financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported expenses and consolidated statement of balance sheet classifications that would be necessary if the Company were unable to realize its assets and settle its liabilities as a going concern in the normal course of operations. Such adjustments could be material.

There is no certainty that we will be successful in generating sufficient cash flow from operations or achieving and maintaining profitable operations in the future to enable us to meet our obligations as they come due and consequently continue as a going concern. The Company may require additional funds to further develop our expanded business plan. The Company may require additional financing this year to fund our operations and is examining possible sources of funding beyond the existing cash generated from operations. Sales of additional equity securities would result in the dilution of the interests of existing stockholders. There can be no assurance that financing will be available when required. In the event that the necessary additional financing is not obtained, the Company would reduce its discretionary overhead costs substantially, or otherwise curtail operations.

Financial instruments and risk factors
The Company has exposure to liquidity risk and foreign currency risk. The Company's risk management objective is to preserve and redeploy the existing treasury as appropriate, ultimately to protect shareholder value. Risk management strategies, as discussed below, are designed and implemented to ensure the Company's risks and the related exposure are consistent with the business objectives and risk tolerance.
Liquidity Risk: Liquidity risk is the risk that the Company will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they come due. The Company manages its liquidity by ensuring that there is sufficient capital to meet short and long-term business requirements, after taking into account cash requirements from operations and the Company's holdings of cash and cash equivalents. The Company also strives to maintain sufficient financial liquidity at all times in order to participate in investment opportunities as they arise, as well as to withstand sudden adverse changes in economic circumstances.
Management forecasts cash flows for its current and subsequent fiscal years to
predict future financing requirements. Future requirements may be met through a
combination of credit and access to capital markets. The Company's cash
requirements are dependent on the level of operating activity, a large portion
of which is discretionary. Should management decide to increase its operating
activity, more funds than what is currently in place would be required. It is
not possible to predict whether financing efforts will be successful or
sufficient in the future. At

Currency risk: The Company's expenditures are incurred in Canadian and US dollars. The results of the Company's operations are subject to currency translation risk. The Company mitigates foreign exchange risk through forecasting its foreign currency denominated expenditures and maintaining an appropriate balance of cash in each currency to meet the expenditures. As the Company's reporting currency is the US dollar, fluctuations in US dollar will affect the results of the Company.
Credit risk: Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty's
inability to fulfill its payment obligations. As at
Interest rate risk: Interest rate risk is the risk borne by an interest-bearing asset or liability as a result of fluctuations in interest rates. Financial assets and financial liabilities with variable interest rates expose the Company to cash flow interest rate risk. The Company's does not have significant interest rate risk as the promissory note have been settled during the year.
Fair values: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization.

21 Critical Accounting Policies Basis of presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules
and regulations of the
Translation of foreign currencies
The functional currency of the Company, PM and ZTI is the US dollar. The Company has determined that the functional currency of ZM, BGC and ZMG is the Canadian dollar. (references to which are denoted "C$"), for BSP and MSS is the Indian Rupees and for VO is the Euro. The reporting currency of the Company is US Dollar.
Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency are recorded at the rates of the exchange prevailing on dates of transactions. At each balance sheet reporting date, monetary assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rates prevailing at each reporting date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are translated at the exchange rate at the historical date of the transaction. The impact from the translation of foreign currency denominated items are reflected in the statement of operations and comprehensive loss.
Translation of functional currencies to reporting currencies for assets and liabilities is done using the exchange rates at each balance sheet date; revenue and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the reporting period or at the date of the transaction; shareholders' equity is translated at historical rates. Adjustments resulting from translating the consolidated financial statements into the US Dollar are recorded as a separate component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in stockholders' deficiency.
Revenue recognition
The Company's revenue recognition policy follows ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides guidance on the recognition, presentation and disclosure of revenue from contracts with customers in consolidated financial statements.
Revenue is measured based on the consideration specified in a contract with a customer. Once the Company determines a contract's performance obligations and the transaction price, including an estimate of any variable consideration, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation in the contract using a stand-alone selling price. The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a product or service to a customer. Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
Nature of performance obligations
At contract inception, the Company assesses the services promised in the contract with a customer and identifies a performance obligation for each promise to transfer to the customer a service (or bundle of services) that is distinct. To identify the performance obligations, the Company considers all the services promised in the contract regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied.
The following is a description of the Company's principal revenue generating activities.
Revenue is principally derived from time basis billing for IT professional services provided to customers. Professional services in these contracts are primarily considered a single performance obligation. Revenue for these contracts is recognized over time for the amount which the Company has right to consideration. The Company also derived revenue from enabling various payment transactions which is recognized on a fixed fees per transaction basis at a point in time as services are rendered. Deferred revenue is recognized for transactions arising during the current reporting period when it receives consideration from a customer before achieving certain criteria that must be met for revenue to be recognized. Deferred revenue is a liability as of the reporting period related to revenue producing activity for which revenue has not yet been recognized.
22 Financial instruments
ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Included in the ASC Topic 820 framework is a three level valuation inputs hierarchy with Level 1 being inputs and transactions that can be effectively fully observed by market participants spanning to Level 3 where estimates are unobservable by market participants outside of the Company and must be estimated using assumptions developed by the Company. The Company discloses the lowest level input significant to each category of asset or liability valued within the scope of ASC Topic 820 and the valuation method as exchange, income or use. The Company uses inputs which are as observable as possible and the methods most applicable to the specific situation of each company or valued item.
The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, cash in trust and customer deposits, accounts receivables and due from related party corporations, net of any allowances for doubtful accounts, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, promissory note, due to related party corporations, and client funds approximate fair value because of the short period of time between the origination of such instruments and their expected realization. The allowance for doubtful accounts is reflected in "Office and Sundry" expenses on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss. Per ASC Topic 820 framework these are considered Level 2 inputs where inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
The Company's policy is to recognize transfers into and out of Level 3 as of the date of the event or change in the circumstances that caused the transfer. There were no such transfers during the year.
Basic and diluted loss per share
Basic and diluted loss per share has been determined by dividing the net loss available to shareholders for the applicable period by the basic and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding, respectively. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is calculated as if all dilutive options had been exercised or vested at the later of the beginning of the reporting period or date of grant, using the treasury stock method.
Loss per common share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common shares outstanding during the period. Common share equivalents, options and warrants are excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share when their effect as anti-dilutive.
Segment reporting
ASC 280-10, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related
Information", establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises
report information about operating segments in the Company's consolidated
financial statements. Operating segments are components of an enterprise about
which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by
the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in
assessing performance. Significantly all of the assets of the Company are
located in, all revenues are currently earned in
23 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include demand deposits held with banks and highly liquid investments with original maturities of ninety days or less at acquisition date. For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Company considers all cash accounts that are not subject to withdrawal restrictions or penalties to be cash and cash equivalents. Cash in trust and customer deposits are amounts held by the Company at various financial institutions for settlement of clients' funds payable.
Property and Equipment
Equipment is stated at historic cost. The Company has the following sub-categories of property and equipment with useful lives and depreciation methods as follows:
• Office equipment and furniture - 20% declining balance per year
The cost of assets sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
The Company follows the ASC Topic 360, which requires that long-lived assets be reviewed annually for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the assets' carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
In performing the review for recoverability, if future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the use and ultimate disposition of the assets are less than their carrying values, an impairment loss represented by the difference between its fair value and carrying value, is recognized. When properties are classified as held for sale they are recorded at the lower of the carrying amount or the expected sales price less costs to sell.
Intangibles
The Company has applied the provisions of ASC topic 350 - Intangibles - goodwill and other, in accounting for its intangible assets. Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized on a straight-line method on the basis over the useful life of the respective intangibles. The following useful lives are used in the calculation of amortization:
Trademark - 8 years Customer base - 5 years
Intellectual property/Technology - 10 years
24
Impairment goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets and intangible assets with definite lives
The Company accounts for goodwill and intangible assets in accordance with ASC No. 350, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other ("ASC 350"). ASC 350 requires that goodwill and other intangibles with indefinite lives be tested for impairment annually or on an interim basis if events or circumstances indicate that the fair value of an asset has decreased below its carrying value. In addition, ASC 350 requires that goodwill be tested for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis and between annual tests when circumstances indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of goodwill may be in doubt. Application of the goodwill impairment test requires judgment, including the identification of reporting units; assigning assets and liabilities to reporting units, assigning goodwill to reporting units, and determining the fair value. Significant judgments required to estimate the fair value of reporting units include estimating future cash flows, determining appropriate discount rates and other assumptions. Changes in these estimates and assumptions or the occurrence of one or more confirming events in future periods could cause the actual results or outcomes to materially differ from such estimates and could also affect the determination of fair value and/or goodwill impairment at future reporting dates.
The Company assesses the carrying value of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible
assets and intangible assets with definite lives, such as Trademark, Technology
platform, customer base and other intangible assets for potential impairment
annually as of
When assessing goodwill for impairment the Company elects to first perform a qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. If we do not perform a qualitative assessment, or if the qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting units, is less than its carrying amount, the Company performs a quantitative test. The Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit's fair value; however, the loss recognized would not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company estimates fair value using the income approach, to estimate the future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) from the use and ultimate disposition of the assets.
Income taxes
Deferred tax is recognized using the asset and liability method, on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for tax purposes. However, the deferred tax is not recognized if it arises from initial recognition of an asset or liability in a transaction other than a business combination that at the time of the transaction affects neither accounting nor taxable profit or loss. Deferred taxes determined using tax rates (and laws) that have been enacted by the reporting date and are expected to apply when the related deferred taxation asset is realized, or the deferred taxation liability is settled. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset if there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax liabilities and assets, and they relate to income taxes levied by the same tax authority on the same taxable entity, or on different tax entities, but they intend to settle current tax liabilities and assets on a net basis or their tax assets and liabilities will be realized simultaneously.
A deferred tax asset is recognized to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the temporary difference can be utilized. Deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date and are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realized.
Share-based payment expense
The Company follows the fair value method of accounting for stock awards granted to employees, directors, officers and consultants. Share-based awards to employees are measured at the fair value of the related share-based awards. Share-based payments to others are valued based on the related services rendered or goods received or if this cannot be reliably measured, on the fair value of the instruments issued. Issuances of shares are valued using the fair value of the shares at the time of grant; issuances of warrants and other share-based awards are valued using the Black-Scholes model with assumptions based on historical experience and future expectations. All issuances of share-based payments have been fully-vested, otherwise the Company recognizes such awards over the vesting period based on expectations of the number of awards expected to vest over that period on a straight-line basis.
Business combinations
A business combination is a transaction or other event in which control over one or more businesses is obtained. A business is an integrated set of activities and assets that is capable of being conducted and managed for the purpose of providing a return in the form of dividends, lower costs or other economic benefits. A business consists of inputs and processes applied to those inputs that have the ability to create outputs that provide a return to the Company and its shareholders. A business need not include all of the inputs and processes that were used by the acquiree to produce outputs if the business can be integrated with the inputs and processes of the Company to continue to produce outputs. The Company considers several factors to determine whether the set of activities and assets is a business.
Business acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method whereby acquired assets and liabilities are recorded at fair value as of the date of acquisition with the excess of the purchase consideration over such fair value being recorded as goodwill and allocated to reporting units ("RUs"). If the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the purchase consideration, the difference is recognized immediately as a gain in the consolidated statement of operations. Acquisition related costs are expensed during the period in which they are incurred, except for the cost of debt or equity instruments issued in relation to the acquisition which is included in the carrying amount of the related instrument. Certain fair values may be estimated at the acquisition date pending confirmation or completion of the valuation process. Where provisional values are used in accounting for a business combination, they are adjusted retrospectively in subsequent periods. However, the measurement period will not exceed one year from the acquisition date. If the assets acquired are not a business, the transaction is accounted for as an asset acquisition.
25 Leases
On
The Company is the lessee in a lease contract when the Company obtains the right to use the asset. Operating leases are included in the line items right-of-use asset, lease obligation, current, and lease obligation, long-term in the consolidated balance sheet. Right-of-use ("ROU") asset represents the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease obligations represent the Company's obligations to make lease payments arising from the lease, both of which are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less at inception are not recorded on the consolidated balance sheet and are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term in our consolidated statement of income. The Company determines the lease term by agreement with lessor.
As our current operating lease of office space, at the commencement, has a term of less than 12 months, we elect not to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to the short-term lease, instead lease payments are recognized in statement of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Use of estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
The areas where management has made significant judgments include, but are not limited to:
Accounting for acquisitions: The accounting for acquisitions requires judgement to determine if an acquisition meets the definition of a business combination under ASC 805. Further, management is required to use judgement to determine the fair value of the consideration provided and the net assets and liabilities acquired.
Assessment of Impairment: The Company has certain assets for which a determination of an impairment, if any, requires significant judgement to determine if the carrying amount of any assets are impaired. Management uses judgement in determining among other things, whether or not an indicator of impairment has occurred, future cash flows, time horizons, and likelihood of recoverability. The assets where management has assessed the recoverability the carrying amount includes accounts receivable, equipment, intangibles and goodwill.
26
Deferred taxes: The Company recognizes the deferred tax benefit related to deferred income tax assets to the extent recovery is probable. Assessing the recoverability of deferred income tax assets requires management to make significant estimates of future taxable profit and the income tax rate at which the future tax assets will be realized. To the extent that future cash flows, taxable profit and income tax rates differ significantly from estimates, the ability of the Company to realize deferred tax assets could be impacted. In addition, future changes in tax laws could limit the ability of the Company to obtain tax deductions in future periods from deferred income tax assets.
Share-based payment expense: The calculation of share-based payment expense requires management to use significant judgment in determining the fair value of share-based payment expense. Additionally, the management is required to make certain assumptions in arriving at the fair value of share-based payment expense.
Derivative financial instruments: The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks.
The Company reviews the terms of equity instruments and other financing arrangements, if any, to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately as a derivative financial instrument. Also, in connection with the issuance of financing instruments, the Company may issue freestanding options or warrants to employees and non-employees in connection with consulting or other services. These options or warrants may, depending on their terms, be accounted for as derivative instrument liabilities, rather than as equity.
Derivative financial instruments are initially measured at their fair value. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. To the extent that the initial fair values of the freestanding and/or bifurcated derivative instrument liabilities exceed the total proceeds received an immediate charge to income is recognized in order to initially record the derivative instrument liabilities at their fair value.
The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is reassessed at the end of each reporting period. If reclassification is required, the fair value of the derivative instrument, as of the determination date, is reclassified. Any previous charges or credits to income for changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are not reversed. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within twelve months of the balance sheet date.
