NOTE 1. NATURE AND CONTINUANCE OF OPERATIONS

VOIP-PAL.com, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Nevada in September 1997 as All American Casting International, Inc. The Company’s registered office is located at 10900 NE 4^th Street, Suite 2300, Bellevue, Washington in the United States of America.

Since March 2004, the Company has developed technology and patents related to Voice-over-Internet Protocol (VoIP) processes. All business activities prior to March 2004 have been abandoned and written off to deficit. The Company operates in one reportable segment being the acquisition and development of VoIP-related intellectual property including patents and technology. All intangible assets are located in the United States of America

In December 2013, the Company completed the acquisition of Digifonica (International) Limited, a private company controlled by the CEO of the Company, whose assets included several patents and technology developed for the VoIP market.

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company is in various stages of product development and continues to incur losses and, at March 31, 2020, had an accumulated deficit of $53,096,333 (September 30, 2019 - $51,721,696). The ability of the Company to continue operations as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional working capital, settling outstanding debts and generating profitable operations. These material uncertainties raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Should the going concern assumption not continue to be appropriate, further adjustments to carrying values of assets and liabilities may be required. There can be no assurance that capital will be available as necessary to meet these continued developments and operating costs or, if the capital is available, that it will be on the terms acceptable to the Company. The issuances of additional stock by the Company may result in a significant dilution in the equity interests of its current shareholders. Obtaining commercial loans, assuming those loans would be available, will increase the Company’s liabilities and future cash commitments. If the Company is unable to obtain financing in the amounts and on terms deemed acceptable, its business and future success may be adversely affected.

Additionally, as the Company’s stated objective is to monetize its patent suite through the licensing or sale of its intellectual property (“IP”), the Company being forced to litigate or to defend its IP claims through litigation casts substantial doubt on its future to continue as a going concern. IP litigation is generally a costly process, and in the absence of revenue the Company must raise capital to continue its own defense and to validate its claims – in the event of a failure to defend its patent claims, either because of lack of funding, a court ruling against the Company or because of a protracted litigation process, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise additional capital to pay for an appeals process or a lengthy trial. The outcome of any litigation process may have a significant adverse effect on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation

These interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary Digifonica. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. As at March 31, 2020, Digifonica had no activities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these interim consolidated financial statements required management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Where estimates have been used, financial results as determined by actual events could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

Cash

Cash consists of cash on hand, cash held in trust, and monies held in checking and savings accounts. The Company had $356,760 in cash on March 31, 2020 (September 30, 2019 - $960,490).

Fixed Assets

Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation, and depreciated using the straight-line method over their useful lives; Furniture and computers – 7 years.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets, consisting of VoIP communication patent intellectual properties (IP) are recorded at cost and amortized over the assets estimated life on a straight-line basis. Management considers factors such as remaining life of the patents, technological usefulness and other factors in estimating the life of the assets.

The carrying value of intangible assets are reviewed for impairment by management of the Company at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the carrying amount may be less than its fair value. If impaired, the Company will write-down such impairment. In addition, the useful life of the intangible assets will be evaluated by management at least annually or upon the occurrence of an event which may indicate that the useful life may have changed.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date and in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability. The fair value should be calculated based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, not on assumptions specific to the entity.

The Company classifies financial assets and liabilities as held-for-trading, available-for-sale, held-to-maturity, loans and receivables or other financial liabilities depending on their nature. Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognized at fair value on their initial recognition, except for those arising from certain related party transactions which are accounted for at the transferor’s carrying amount or exchange amount.

Financial assets and liabilities classified as held-for-trading are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized in net income. Financial assets classified as held-to-maturity, loans and receivables, and financial liabilities other than those classified as held-for-trading are measured at amortized cost, using the effective interest method of amortization. Financial assets classified as available-for-sale are measured at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses being recognized as other comprehensive income until realized, or if an unrealized loss is considered other than temporary, the unrealized loss is recorded in income.

U.S. GAAP establishes a framework for measuring fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and enhances disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the amount that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., 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. Valuation techniques used to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The standard describes the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices 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.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The fair value of cash is classified as Level 1 at March 31, 2020 and September 30, 2019.

The Company classifies its financial instruments as follows: Cash is classified as held for trading and is measured at fair value. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities are classified as other financial liabilities, and have a fair value approximating their carrying value, due to their short-term nature.

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes have been provided for temporary differences between financial statement and income tax reporting under the asset and liability method, using expected tax rates and laws that are expected to be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided when realization is not considered more likely than not.

The Company’s policy is to classify income tax assessments, if any, for interest expense and for penalties in general and administrative expenses. The Company’s income tax returns are subject to examination by the IRS and corresponding states, generally for three years after they are filed.

Loss per Common Share

Basic loss per share is calculated using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted income per share includes potentially dilutive securities such as outstanding options and warrants outstanding during each period. To calculate diluted loss per share the Company uses the treasury stock method and the If-converted method.

For the period ended March 31, 2020 and the year ended September 30, 2019 there were no potentially dilutive securities included in the calculation of weighted-average common shares outstanding.

Derivatives

We account for derivatives pursuant to ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. All derivative instruments are recognized in the consolidated financial statements and measured at fair value regardless of the purpose or intent for holding them. We determine fair value of warrants and other option type instruments based on option pricing models. The changes in fair value of these instruments are recorded in income or expense.

Stock-based compensation

The Company recognizes compensation expense for all stock-based payments made to employees, directors and others based on the estimated fair values of its common stock on the date of issuance.

The Company determines the fair value of the share-based compensation payments granted as either the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. If the fair value of the equity instruments issued is used, it is measured using the stock price and other measurement assumptions as of the earlier of either the date at which a commitment for performance to earn the equity instrument is reached or the date the performance is complete.

The Company recognizes compensation expense for stock awards with service conditions on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is included in operations. Stock option expense is recognized over the option’s vesting period.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company’s policy is to maintain cash with reputable financial institutions or in retainers with trusted vendors. The Company has at times had cash balances at financial institutions in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Insurance Limit of $250,000, but has not experienced any losses to date as a result. As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s bank operating account balances did not exceed the FDIC Insurance Limit.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Adoption

In January 2016, FASB issued an ASU, Subtopic 825-10, to amend certain aspects of recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. Most prominent among the amendments is the requirement for changes in fair value of equity investments, with certain exceptions, to be recognized through profit or loss rather than other comprehensive income. The Company adopted the standard October 1, 2018. There was no impact on the Company’s financial statements from the adoption of this amendment.

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Adoption (cont’d)

In February 2016 FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) which supersedes FASB ASC Topic 840, Leases (Topic 840) and provides principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of leases for both lessees and the lessors. The new standard requires the lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. The classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than twelve months regardless of classification. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted upon issuance. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on the financial statements.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13 to replace the incurred loss impairment methodology in current U.S. GAAP with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss credit loss estimates. For trade and other receivables, loans and other financial instruments, the Company will be required to use a forward-looking expected loss model rather than the incurred loss model for recognizing credit losses which reflects losses that are probable. Credit losses relating to available for sale debt securities will also be recorded through an allowance for credit losses rather than as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the securities. The new standard will be effective for the Company beginning October 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted. Application of the amendments is through a cumulative-effect adjustment to deficit as of the effective date. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the standard on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4. PURCHASE OF DIGIFONICA

The Company acquired Digifonica in December 2013. Pursuant to the terms in the Share Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) the Company acquired 100% of Digifonica from the seller, the CEO of the Company (the “Seller”), for a cash payment of $800,000 and 389,023,561 common shares of the Company. The assets acquired through the acquisition were VoIP-related patented technology, including patents for Lawful Intercept, routing, billing and rating, mobile gateway, advanced interoperability solutions, intercepting voice over IP communications, and uninterrupted transmission of internet protocol transmissions during endpoint changes.

The SPA included an anti-dilution clause (the “Anti-Dilution Clause”) that requires the Company to maintain the Seller’s percentage ownership of the Company at 40% by issuing the Seller a proportionate number of common shares of any future issuance of the Company’s common shares. Shares issued pursuant to the Anti-Dilution Clause are recorded as a share issuance cost within the Additional Paid-in Capital account (Notes 8 and 10).

NOTE 5. RETAINER

The Company has retainers with several of its professional service providers. The balance on these prepaid retainers was $122,594 as of March 31, 2020 and $797,681 for the year ended September 30, 2019. The Company recognizes the expense from these retainers as they are invoiced and the invoiced charges are deducted from the various providers’ prepaid retainer balances.

There were no retirements of any fixed assets in the periods presented.

NOTE 11. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

Stock Option Plan

In order to provide incentive to directors, officers, management, employees, consultants and others who provide services to the Company or any subsidiary (the “Service Providers”) to act in the best interests of the Company, and to retain such Service Providers, the Company has in place an incentive Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) whereby the Company is authorized to issue up to 10% of its issued and outstanding share capital in options to purchase common shares of the Company. The maximum term of options granted under the Plan cannot exceed ten years, with vesting terms determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

The following table summarizes the Company’s stock option transactions:

The following table summarizes the stock options outstanding at March 31, 2020:

The following assumptions were used for the Black-Scholes valuation of stock options granted during the six-month period ended March 31, 2020: risk-free rate of 0% (2019 – 3.84%), expected life of 0 years (2019 – 5 years), annualized historical volatility of 0% (2019 – 161.7%) and a dividend rate of 0% (2019 – 0%). Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock and other factors. The stock options vest on the occurrence of the earlier of a successful defense of the Company’s patents in litigation in Federal Court or a Bonusable Event as defined in Note 12 hereto. The compensation cost that has been charged against income from options vested under the Plan was $nil for the six-month period ended March 31, 2020 (2019 – $nil) as none of the vesting conditions of the options granted during the period were met.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the six-month period ended March 31, 2020 was $nil (2019 - $0.06). The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the period ended March 31, 2020 was $nil (2019 - $nil).

Patent Litigation (cont’d)

Inter Partes Reviews

In additional legal actions related to the above cases, several of the Company’s patents have been subject to challenge in Inter Partes Review (“IPR”) petitions filed before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board (“PTAB”) of the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”). An IPR is a post-grant patent review process allowing the PTAB to consider the validity of issued patents. There are no damages awarded, but a portion or all of a patent’s claims instituted for IPR may be invalidated as a result of the review.

Through 2016 and 2017, eight IPRs filed against Patents No. 8,542,815 and No. 9,179,005 by either Apple Inc., AT&T Inc. or Unified Patents Inc. as Petitioner(s) were resolved by the PTAB by denial of their institution. Subsequent to those rulings, in December 2017, Apple filed a post-judgment motion in IPR2016-01198 and IPR2016-01201, seeking invalidation of the challenged claims as sanctions against the Company for its having participated in ex parte communications during the PTAB proceedings.

During the year ended September 30, 2019, on December 21, 2018, the PTAB ruled on Apple’s sanctions motion, declining to grant Apple’s request to invalidate the challenged claims and declining to grant Apple’s request for entirely new proceedings to replace the existing panel of judges with a new panel or with judges that would consider any request for rehearing by Apple as a sanction against VoIP-Pal. On January 23, 2019, Apple appealed the PTAB’s ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. The appeal remains pending.

During the year ended September 30, 2019, Apple Inc. petitioned the PTAB to have an additional four IPRs instituted against the Company’s patents numbered 9,537,762, 9,813,330 B2, 9,826,002 B2, and 9,948,549 B2.

During the six-month period ended March 31, 2020, all four Apple petitions were denied institution by the PTAB.

Non-Patent Litigation

The Company is party to the following non-patent litigation case:

On March 24, 2014, the Company resolved to freeze 95,832,000 common shares that were issued to a company controlled by a former director in fiscal 2013 and accounted for at a cost of $1,443,000. The Company resolved to freeze said common shares as the Company believes that the shares were issued as settlement of a line of credit that the Company believes to have been legally unsupported. The Plaintiff alleged that the freeze and the Company’s actions constituted fraud and a breach of securities laws. The Defendant denied any wrongdoing.

In August, 2019, the case was heard in Nevada District Court in a jury trial. In a judgment rendered August 26, 2019, the jury ruled that certain of the Defendants (namely the directors of the Company in 2014) had breached their fiduciary duty to the shareholder and awarded monetary relief to the Plaintiff in the amount of $355,000, plus pre-judgment interest in the amount of $91,306. On a concurrent counter-claim, the jury found a claim of Unjust Enrichment against Third-Party Plaintiff TK Investment, Ltd. to be unsubstantiated and awarded monetary relief to the Third-Party Plaintiff of $84,000 plus pre-judgment interest of $3,459.

During the six-month period ended March 31, 2020, the Plaintiff and the Defendant waived their rights to appeal in this case. Following such waiver, both of the above-noted judgments and accrued interest were paid in full.

NOTE 12. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (CONT’D)

Performance Bonus Payable

In 2016, the board of directors authorized the Company to provide a performance bonus (the “Performance Bonus”) of up to 3% of the capital stock of the Company by way of the issuance of Common shares from its treasury to an as yet undetermined group of related and non-related parties upon the occurrence of a bonusable event, defined as the successful completion of a sale of the Company or substantially all its assets, or a major licensing transaction. In order to provide maximum flexibility to the Company with respect to determining the level of Performance Bonus payable, and who may qualify to receive a pro-rata share of such a Performance Bonus, the Company authorized full discretion to the Board in making such determinations.

During the year ended September 30, 2019, the board of directors authorized the increase of the Performance Bonus to up to 10% of the capital stock of the Company. Concurrently, the directors authorized 66.67% of the Performance Bonus to be issued in an advance payment of an aggregate 127,000,000 Common shares (“Bonus Shares”) (Note 10) to a group of related and non-related parties, which included members of management, a director and several consultants. 94,000,000 of the Bonus Shares are restricted from trading under Rule 144 and are also subject to voluntary lock-up agreements, pursuant to which they cannot be traded, pledged, hypothecated, transferred or sold by the holders until such time as the Company has met the requirements of the bonusable event as described above.

As at March 31, 2020, no bonusable event had occurred and there was no Performance Bonus payable.
