NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION
In these consolidated financial statements, references to “MoneyOnMobile,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” collectively refers to MoneyOnMobile, Inc., and its majority-owned Indian enterprise, which includes Digital Payment Processing Limited ("DPPL"), My Mobile Payments Limited ("MMPL"), SVR Retail Pvt. Ltd ("SVR") and Payblox Technologies (India) Private Limited ("Payblox"). All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company operates
one
distinct business unit, which is located in India.
MoneyOnMobile offers electronic wallet services in India. MoneyOnMobile customers use our payments system to pay for goods and services and sending or receiving money using mobile phone text messages, smart phone or internet. Consumers are often required to prepay for certain utilities, such as mobile phone services. Because bank accounts and credit cards are only used by a small portion of the Indian population, consumers typically prepay for these utilities with cash, either directly to utility providers or through distributors. MoneyOnMobile acts as an intermediary between a) the utility provider and distributors, b) distributors and consumers, and c) consumer and other parties.
As an intermediary between the utility provider and distributors, MoneyOnMobile purchases utility units, such as mobile phone minutes, at wholesale rates and resells these units to distributors. MoneyOnMobile maintains an inventory of these utility units held for resell. As an intermediate between distributors and consumers, distributors use our electronic wallet technology to a) allow consumers to purchase utility units from the distributor by mobile phone text message and b) allow distributors to send a text message confirmation back to the consumer. MoneyOnMobile earns a transaction fee for these services, paid by the consumer. Once a consumer has established a MoneyOnMobile electronic wallet account, consumers can use our technology to facilitate non-distributor-related transactions with other parties that have MoneyOnMobile accounts, including other retailers and utilities and other MoneyOnMobile consumers. We also earns a transaction fee for these services, paid by the consumer.
In March 2012, the Company began acquiring common stock of Digital Payments Processing Limited (“DPPL”). During 2012, DPPL entered into an exclusive services agreement with My Mobile Payments Limited (“MMPL”), an entity that shares common ownership with DPPL. DPPL maintains a services agreement with My Mobile Payments Limited (“MMPL”) to deliver payment processing services in India. Both companies are organized under the laws of India and headquartered in Mumbai, India.
Payblox Technologies (India) Private Limited (“Payblox”), a wholly owned subsidiary of MMPL, organized in October 2010 under the laws of India and headquartered in Mumbai, India, provides certain back office and support services on behalf of MMPL to MoneyOnMobile customers. Collectively, DPPL, MMPL, and Payblox Technology (India) Private Limited (“Payblox”), operate the MoneyOnMobile enterprise. MoneyOnMobile is operated locally by a management team based in Mumbai, India, with corporate oversight provided by the executive management based in Dallas, Texas. MMPL currently has a license from the Reserve Bank of India to operate a payments system. Renewal of the license is required in October 2018, and MMPL intends to seek renewal and has no reason to believe it will not receive such renewal.
In January 2014, the Company acquired a majority of the common stock of DPPL, obtaining control of DPPL and, through DPPL’s services agreement, obtaining control of MMPL and Payblox. As such, MMPL has been consolidated as a Variable Interest Entity, in the Company’s accompanying financial statements. Prior to obtaining control in January 2014, investments in DPPL and MMPL were accounted for as equity method investments. On March 31, 2015, MMPL and DPPL executed a business purchase agreement, whereby DPPL purchased all the assets of MMPL. The impact of this business combination has been eliminated upon consolidation, as the Company maintained financial control of both entities since January 2014. In July 2016, the Company acquired the outstanding assets and liabilities of SVR, a non-operating Indian registered entity.
Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in our financial statements. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe are reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for our conclusions. Actual results may differ from the estimates used in preparing our consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates include revenue recognition, valuation of financial instruments, goodwill, fair value measurements and business combinations.
We consolidate entities over which we have control, as typically evidenced by a voting control of greater than 50% or for which we are the primary beneficiary, whereby we have the power to direct the most significant activities and the obligation to absorb significant losses or receive significant benefits from the entity. We separately present our noncontrolling interests in the consolidated financial statements. For affiliates we do not control but where significant influence over financial and operating policies exists, as typically evidenced by a voting control of 20% to 50%, the investment is accounted for using the equity method. In addition, the assets, liabilities, and results of operations of all variable interest entities for which we have determined we are the primary beneficiary are included in our consolidated financial statements from the date such determination is made. All significant inter-company investments, accounts, and transactions have been eliminated.
Going Concern
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Company had a net loss of $
(13,095,503)
and
$(19,727,913)
for the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is continuing with its plan to grow and expand its mobile payment and ATM processing operations in India. Management believes that its operating strategy will provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern as long as it continues to obtain sufficient external financing; however, there is no assurance this will occur. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.
Reclassifications
Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation.
Sale of U.S. Operations
Effective November 30, 2015, the Company divested its U.S. Operations, excluding executive headquarters. There is no continuing cash inflows or outflows from or to the discontinued operations. In consideration for the acquired assets, the buyer assumed certain of the Company’s liabilities, including an aggregate of
$8.3 million
of notes payable and certain of the Sellers’ outstanding contractual obligations. See Note 19:
Sale of U.S. Operations
for additional information.
2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company believes the carrying values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and interest payable approximate their fair values. Additionally, the Company believes the carrying value of its senior notes, subordinated notes, and note payable approximate the estimated fair value for debt with similar terms, interest rates, and remaining maturities currently available to companies with similar credit ratings.
The estimated fair value of our common stock issued in share-based payments is measured by the more relevant of: (i) the prices received in private placement sales of our stock or; (ii) its publicly-quoted market price. We estimate the fair value of warrants, other than those included in common stock unit purchases, and stock options when issued or vested using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions. Recognition in shareholders’ equity and expense of the fair value of stock options awarded to employees is on the straight-line basis over the requisite service period and, for grants to non-employees, when the options vest. The fair value of exercisable warrants on the date of issuance issued in connection with debt financing transactions or for services are deferred and expensed over the term of the debt or as services are performed.
Convertible Instruments
Certain debt instrument require us to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as free standing derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. This criteria includes (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under otherwise applicable generally accepted accounting principles with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument. Debt discounts under these arrangements are amortized over the term of the related debt to their date of redemption.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We classify as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) provide a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in our own shares providing that such contracts are indexed to our common stock. We classify as assets or liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the Company’s control) or (ii) gives the counter party a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares (physical settlement or net-share settlement). We assesses classification of its common stock purchase warrants and other free standing derivatives at each reporting date to determine whether a change in classification between assets and liabilities is required.
Our free standing derivatives consist of embedded conversion options with a convertible note. The Company evaluated these derivatives to assess their proper classification in the consolidated balance sheets using the applicable classification criteria enumerated under ASC 815-Derivatives and Hedging. The Company determined that certain embedded conversion features do not contain fixed settlement provisions. As a result, we were required to record the conversion option associated with the debt as an embedded derivative. We previously recorded this liability as a derivative liability within current liabilities in our historical consolidated balance sheet. Changes in the value of this derivative liability has been marked-to-market at the end of each reporting period and recorded as Other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, we did not have any outstanding convertible instruments that would be classified as a derivative.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currency of MoneyOnMobile, consisting of DPPL, SVR and the variable interest entities MMPL and Payblox, is the Indian Rupee. MoneyOnMobile assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at each consolidated balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at quarterly average exchange rates and resulting translation gains or losses are accumulated in other comprehensive loss as a separate component within the accompanying statements of shareholders’ equity. Additionally, cumulative translation adjustments recorded in other comprehensive income are reclassified to noncontrolling interest proportionally based on the weighted average percentage ownership interest held by the noncontrolling interest.
Cash and Equivalents
We consider cash, deposits, and short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash and equivalents. Our deposits at financial institutions at times exceed amounts covered by U.S. Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance.
Due from Distributors
Amounts represent purchases made by consumers for which payment was made to an agent. As of
March 31, 2017
and
2016
, there were
three
and
one
distributors, which comprised
77%
and
92%
, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization, using the straight-line method based on estimated useful lives of
three
to
five
years. The building purchased in India has an estimated useful life of
39
years. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Expenditures that increase the value or productive capacity of assets are capitalized. When property and equipment are retired, sold, or otherwise disposed of, the asset's carrying amount and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts and any gain or loss is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
Equity Investment
Under the equity method of accounting, the Company records its proportionate share of the net earnings or losses and a corresponding increase or decrease to the investment balance. The Company evaluates its equity method investments for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts of such investments may not be recoverable.
No
impairments were recorded during years ended
March 31, 2017
or
2016
.
Deferred Financing Costs
The Company capitalizes third-party costs paid to obtain its debt financing. Capitalized costs are then amortized using a straight-line basis over the related debt term into interest expense.
Business Combinations
We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired customer lists, acquired technology, and trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to earnings.
Goodwill
Goodwill consists of the cost of our acquired businesses in excess of the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired and is allocated to reporting units based on the relative fair value of the future benefit of the purchased operations to our existing business units as well as the acquired business unit. The Company has elected to early adopt Accounting Standards Update No: 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment.
We perform an annual impairment assessment in the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, or more frequently if indicators of potential impairment exist, to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit in which goodwill resides is less than its carrying value. We have elected to first assess the qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of our single reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the goodwill impairment.
Qualitative factors considered in this assessment include industry and market considerations, overall financial performance, and other relevant events and factors affecting the reporting unit. If we determine that it is more likely than not that its fair value is less than its carrying amount, then the goodwill impairment test is performed. To calculate any potential impairment, we compares the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount. Any excess of the goodwill carrying amount over its fair value is recognized as an impairment loss, and the carrying value of goodwill is written down.
In our annual impairment assessment for the year ended
March 31, 2017
resulted in an impairment loss of
$(1,592,000)
. A significant factor in the impairment loss was related to our decline in revenue for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2017. A weighted average approach using multiple valuation methods on a financial controlling basis was created. It comprised of a
52.5%
weight to the market approach (
5%
precedent transactions (subject company),
47.5%
precedent transactions (comparable company),
47.5%
guideline public company and a
0%
weight to the income approach (discounted cash flow). Current market, industry and macro-economic conditions were utilized to assist to develop the fair value measurements.
Our annual impairment assessment for the year ended March 31, 2016, we determined it was more likely than not that the fair value of this reporting unit exceeded its carrying value. After reviewing the results of multiple valuation models, a weighted average approach on a financial controlling basis was considered most appropriate comprised of an
80%
weight to the market approach (
40%
precedent transactions (subject company),
15%
precedent transactions (comparable company) and
25%
guideline public company) and a
20%
weight to the income approach (
20%
discounted cash flow). Additionally, other information such as current market, industry and macro-economic conditions were utilized to assist to develop these fair value measurements. As a result, we concluded that goodwill was not impaired for the year ended March 31, 2016.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets consist of software (excluding computer software), customer lists, trademarks, distributor contracts and domain names acquired through business combinations, or consists of software developed or obtained for internal use, as well as software intended for resale. Costs to develop internal use computer software during the application development stage are capitalized on a per project basis and are amortized on a straight line basis over its useful life. Capitalized costs for internally developed software during the years ended
March 31, 2017
and
2016
totaled
$252,110
and
$530,015
, respectively.
Costs for software developed for resale are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility is established, capitalized once technological feasibility occurs, including costs for coding and testing, and expensed once the software is available for release to customers. Capitalized costs for software available for sale are amortized over the greater of the amounts computed for the (1) expected revenue to total anticipated revenue or (2) straight line basis over its estimated useful life. Capitalized costs for software developed for resale during the years ended
March 31, 2017
and
2016
totaled
$0
for both periods.
The weighted average amortization period is
five
years for customer lists, acquisition costs and trademarks,
five
years for internal use software,
three
years for software developed for resale and domain names are not amortized. Capitalized finite-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Indefinite-lived assets are not amortized, but reviewed at least annually for potential impairment.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
In addition to the annual goodwill impairment test, long-lived assets, including property and equipment and other intangible assets, are reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. If such review indicates that the carrying amount of long-lived assets is not recoverable, the carrying amount of such assets is reduced to fair value. In addition to the recoverability assessment, we review the remaining estimated useful lives of property and equipment and finite-lived intangible assets. If we reduce the estimated useful life assumption for any asset, the remaining unamortized balance would be amortized or depreciated over the revised estimated useful life. There were
no
adjustments to the carrying value or useful lives of long-lived assets (other than goodwill) during the years ended
March 31, 2017
or
2016
.
Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue when (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been performed; (3) the price is fixed or determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. The Company has three primary revenue streams: residual portfolios, merchant payment processing fees, and MoneyOnMobile transactions.
The following revenue recognition policies define the manner in which the Company accounts for sales transactions:
A significant portion of revenue is attributable to Merchant Services, including Mobile Recharge and Direct-to-Home. In these transactions, revenue from purchased utility units is recognized on a net basis, as the Company is acting in an agent capacity. MoneyOnMobile does not change the product or perform part of the service, has minimal discretion in supplier selection, has minimal latitude in establishing prices and possesses no credit risk.
Other services offered are Consumer Services, including bill payment and money transfer. For bill payment transactions, we act as an agent with consumers. Distributors use our electronic wallet technology to allow consumers to pay utility bills by mobile phone text message and smart phone. We earn a fixed transaction fee for these services. For our money transfer services, once a consumer has established a MoneyOnMobile electronic wallet account, consumers can use our technology to facilitate non-distributor-related transactions with other parties that have MoneyOnMobile accounts, including other retailers and utilities and other consumers. We also earn a fixed transaction fee for these services.
Distributors often keep a prepaid balance with MoneyOnMobile to facilitate transactions. Prepaid balances are deferred until utility units are delivered. As of
March 31, 2017
and
2016
, advances from distributors was
$2,108,645
and
$4,013,509
, respectively.
Revenue from the above services and transaction fees are recognized on a net basis, as the Company is not the primary obligor, does not establish prices and does not maintain inventory or credit risk.
Income Taxes
Deferred income taxes are recognized for the future income tax effects of differences in the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax return purposes, including undistributed foreign earnings and losses, using enacted tax laws and rates. A valuation allowance is recognized if it is more likely than not that some or all of a deferred tax asset may not be realized. Tax liabilities, together with interest and applicable penalties included in the income tax provision, are recognized for the benefits, if any, of uncertain tax positions in the financial statements which, more likely than not, may not be realized.
Advertising
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. During the years ended
March 31, 2017
and
2016
, advertising expense was
$1,917,969
and
$1,485,467
, respectively.
Operating Lease Expense
Rental expense, consisting primarily of office rent for our Corporate office in Dallas, Texas and satellite offices in India, totaled
$334,119
and
$340,119
during the years ended
March 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that supersedes revenue recognition requirements regarding contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or for the transfer of non-financial assets. Under the new guidance, entities are required to recognize revenue in order to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step analysis to be performed on transactions to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The guidance permits two transition methods of adoption 1) the full retrospective method, in which case the standard would be applied to all reporting periods presented, or 2) the modified retrospective method, with a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. In July 2015, the FASB decided to approve a one-year deferral of the effective date as well as providing an option to early adopt the standard on the original effective date. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those annual years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company will adopt this guidance in its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 on the consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (“ASU 2016-02”). This new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-02 on the consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-09”). This ASU makes several modifications to Topic 718 related to the accounting for forfeitures, employer tax withholding on share-based compensation, and the financial statement presentation of excess tax benefits or deficiencies. ASU 2016-09 also clarifies the statement of cash flows presentation for certain components of share-based awards. The standard is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance on April 1, 2017 and does not expect such adoption to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures for fiscal year 2018.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, Financial Instruments - Overall (Topic 825-10): Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities ("ASU 2016-01"). ASU 2016-01 addresses certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosures of financial instruments including the requirement to measure certain equity investments at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. ASU 2016-01 will become effective for the Company beginning April 1, 2018. The Company is currently evaluating the guidance to determine the potential impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the definition of a business. The new guidance assists a company when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (disposals) of assets or businesses. The provisions of the guidance require that if the fair value of the gross assets acquired (or disposed of) is substantially concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, then it is not a business. The provisions of the guidance are effective for annual years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The Company plans to adopt this guidance in its fiscal year beginning April 1, 2018. These provisions of the guidance are to be applied prospectively. The adoption of this standard is not anticipated to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
There are other various accounting updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
3. RESTATEMENT OF PREVIOUSLY ISSUED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

6 - VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES
A VIE is an entity that is evaluated for consolidation using more than a simple analysis of voting control. We consolidate our VIEs where we determine that we have both the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or receive benefits from the VIE.
My Mobile Payments Limited
We did not hold a majority ownership interest in MMPL at either March 31, 2017 or 2016. Therefore, our determination of whether to consolidate is based upon the power to direct the activities that significantly impact the economic success of these entities. We are the primary beneficiary of MMPL as we are deemed to have a controlling financial interest due to having both a) the power to direct activities that most significantly impact its financial performance and b) the obligation to absorb losses that potentially could be significant. Our analysis includes consideration of the following factors which highlights our ability to control and direct significant influence over financial performance and overall investment strategy:
i) shared Board of Directors with DPPL; and
ii) inter-dependent operations with DPPL (i.e. MMPL is not a sustainable business without DPPL); and
iii) MMPL relies exclusively on DPPL to fund its operations.
Contractual terms that may change the powers held in future periods, such as a purchase or sale options, are not considered in our analysis. Based on our analysis, we believe that we hold the power and rights to direct the most significant activities of MMPL and as a result the financial results of MMPL from the acquisition date of January 6, 2014 have been consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. During the year ending March 31, 2015, the Company invested
$4,906,760
to acquire
8.17%
of MMPL. This investment was necessary to support local management in executing its growth plans. No direct investment was made by the Company to MMPL during the year ending March 31, 2017 or 2016.
During March 2017, the Company reached a settlement agreement with the co-founder of DPPL and MMPL. The Company agreed to purchase all DPPL and MMPL shares held by the co-founder and his business associates. During March 2017, the Company paid
$487,727
to the co-founder to acquire
400,000
shares of MMPL and
48,135
shares of DPPL, and are being held in escrow until all the payments have been made. See note 11:
Mandatory Redeemable Financial Instruments
for detail of payment schedule for the Company's purchase of the remaining shares held by the co-founder at March 31, 2017.
Net loss and comprehensive loss are attributed to controlling and noncontrolling interests. We elected to utilize a weighted average value calculation based on relative ownership interest of DPPL for the year ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. As of March 31, 2017 and 2016, the allocation of MoneyOnMobile to our controlling interest was
74.2%
and
71.9%
, respectively. During the year ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company invested
$1,107,985
and
$0
, respectively, to acquire shares of DPPL and MMPL from Noncontrolling interest.

13 - FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
We measure the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
|
|
Level 1 -
|
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
|
|
|
Level 2 -
|
quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable
|
|
|
Level 3 -
|
inputs that are unobservable based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity (for example, cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions)
|
There were no financial liabilities as of March 31, 2017 and 2016 measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
In September 2015, the Company determined that a certain conversion option related to a convertible note did not have fixed settlement provisions and was deemed to be a derivative financial instrument, since the exercise price was subject to adjustment based on certain changes in market price of the Company’s common stock. Accordingly, the Company was required to record such conversion option as a liability and mark such derivative to fair value each reporting period. Such instrument was classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. However, the note was exchanged prior to March 31, 2016.
The fair value of the conversion option was calculated using a binomial lattice formula with the following weighted average assumptions during the nine months ended December 31, 2015. The financial instrument was exchanged on December 30, 2015 and was created on September 17, 2015:

The risk-free interest rate is the United States Treasury rate on the measurement date having a term equal to the remaining contractual life of the instrument. The volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s share price has fluctuated or is expected to fluctuate. The dividend yield is 0% as the Company has not made any dividend payment and has no plans to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.
Level 3 liabilities are valued using unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the derivative liabilities. For fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, who reports to the Chief Executive Officer, determine its valuation policies and procedures.
The development and determination of the unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and fair value calculations are the responsibility of management.
Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the derivative liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate.
Significant observable and unobservable inputs include stock price, exercise price, annual risk free rate, term, and expected volatility, and are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy. An increase or decrease in volatility or interest free rate, in isolation, can significantly increase or decrease the fair value of the derivative liabilities. Changes in the values of the derivative liabilities are recorded as a component of other income (expense) on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.
The following table sets forth a summary of the changes in the fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable input for the year ended March 31, 2017 and 2016:

Fair Value Measurements are defined as the amount that would be received for selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants and is classified in one of the following three categories. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at March 31, 2017 and 2016:
Level 1 – Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.
Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
Level 3 – Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Level 3 investments consist of investments in Happy Cellular Services Limited.

We estimate the fair value of warrant granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The expected life of warrant represents the term of warrant. The expected stock volatility is based on the average of historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and other subjective factors. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time awards are granted, and the expected dividend rate takes into account the absence of any historical payments and management’s intention to retain all earnings for future operations and expansion. Warrants issued for services included in selling, general and administrative expenses was $
465,717
and $
3,256,309
for the years ended
March 31, 2017
and
2016
, respectively.
The fair value of each warrant granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following weighted average assumptions for grants during the years ended March 31:

Equity Incentive Plans
The
2011 Equity Incentive Plan
(“2011 Plan”) provides for issuing equity awards for an aggregate of
3,500,000
shares of our common stock in the form of grants of restricted shares, incentive stock options (employees only), non-qualified stock options, share appreciation rights, performance shares, and performance units.
The
2016 Equity Incentive Plan
(“2016 Plan”) provides for issuing equity awards for an aggregate of
6,000,000
shares of our common stock, of which
3,000,000
have been registered at March 31, 2017, in the form of grants of restricted shares, incentive stock options (employees only), non-qualified stock options, share appreciation rights, performance shares, and performance units.
The purposes of the 2011 Plan and 2016 Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to employees, directors, and consultants, and to promote the long-term growth and profitability of the Company. Stock option awards have a maximum contractual life of
ten years
and specific vesting terms and performance goals are addressed in each equity award grant. Shares issued to satisfy awards may be from authorized but unissued or reacquired common stock.
Stock Options
We estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The expected life of options represents the period of time the options are expected to be outstanding and other subjective factors. The expected stock volatility is based on the average of historical volatility of the Company’s common stock and other subjective factors. The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time awards are granted, and the expected dividend rate takes into account the absence of any historical payments and management’s intention to retain all earnings for future operations and expansion. No forfeiture is expected when stock options are granted.
During the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company awarded
600,000
and
2,800,000
incentive stock options for shares of common stock. Stock-based compensation expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses was
$209,734
and
$1,216,146
for the years ended March 31, 2017 and 2016. Options with a weighted-average exercise price of
$0.70
per share for
4,080,000
common shares were outstanding at March 31, 2017. Intrinsic value is the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise price of an option. Intrinsic value at March 31, 2017 and 2016 totaled
$0
and
$650,000
, respectively. At March 31, 2017, outstanding options are fully vested and the weighted-average remaining contractual term was
8.4
years; however, if services are earlier terminated,
4,080,000
options become void
90
days after termination.
The fair value of each option was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model using the following weighted average assumptions:

15 - (LOSS) PER SHARE
Basic (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted (loss) per share is computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period increased to include the number of additional shares of common stock that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive securities had been issued. The dilutive effect of potentially dilutive securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock method. Under the treasury stock method, an increase in the fair market value of the Company’s common stock can result in a greater dilutive effect from potentially dilutive securities.
Our shareholder equity includes a line item for “subscribed stock", which represents shares of common stock for which we irrevocably received investors’ purchase prices but, due to administrative delays, had not issued the respective shares of common stock before the period end. These shares have been included in the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period for the purposes of calculating basic (loss) per share.
The computation of basic and diluted loss per share excludes potentially dilutive securities when their inclusion would be anti-dilutive, or if their exercise prices were greater than the average market price of the common stock during the period. Potentially dilutive securities excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net (loss) per share as of
March 31, 2017
and
2016
are as follows:

16 - INCOME TAXES
Our deferred income tax liabilities and assets reflect temporary differences between amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and tax reporting. We adjust our deferred income tax liabilities and assets, as appropriate, to reflect changes in tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. We establish a valuation allowance to offset any deferred income tax assets if, based on the available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. We recognize uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on tax returns at the largest amount that is more likely than not to be sustained upon audit by the relevant taxing authority. An uncertain income tax position will not be recognized if it has less than a 50% likelihood of being sustained. As of
March 31, 2017
and
2016
, no such uncertain income tax benefits were recognized.
The Company has cumulative domestic net operating losses of
$(32.7) million
and
$(27.6) million
as of
March 31, 2017
and 2016, respectively. The net operating loss carryover begins to expire in 2026 through 2034.

Prior to the DPPL acquisition on January 7, 2014, the Company owned
49.9%
of DPPL, a loss company at the time of the acquisition. As a result of this acquisition we obtained certain foreign net operating losses. In the U.S., loss carryforwards are subject to IRC Section 382 of the Code which may limit the amount of taxable income that can be offset by NOL carryforwards after a change in control (generally greater than 50% change in ownership). We do not expect the IRC Section 382 limitation to materially impact the deferred tax asset as it relates to the NOL. The provision for income taxes is due entirely to MMPL and is payable to the Indian Government.

ASC 360-10-45-9 requires that a long-lived asset (disposal group) to be sold shall be classified as held for sale in the period in which a set of criteria have been met, including criteria that the sale of the asset (disposal group) is probable and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. This criteria was achieved on June 30, 2015. Additionally, the discontinued operations are comprised of the entirety of the Calpian Commerce segment and the majority of the remaining U.S. Operations segment, excluding corporate services expenses. Lastly, for comparability purposes certain prior period line items relating to the assets held for sale have been reclassified and presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated statements of net loss and comprehensive loss and the consolidated balance sheets.
As the Company's senior secured promissory note was required to be repaid as a result of the disposal transaction, the relating interest on this debt instrument has been allocated in its entirety to discontinued operations. No other interest has been allocated to discontinued operations.
