PART I - BUSINESS OVERVIEW

ITEM 1. Business

As used herein the terms "Mobetize," "we," "our," "us," refer to Mobetize Corp., and our predecessors, unless the context indicates otherwise.

BACKGROUND

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on February 23, 2012, as Slavia Corp. in order to assist international students enroll in accredited universities, institutes, colleges or schools in Canada. Since we were not able to raise sufficient capital to fund development in this business segment, management determined to consider alternative strategies to create value for our shareholders.

On July 9, 2013, we entered into an Asset Purchase and Sale Agreement with Mobetize Inc., a Nevada corporation, which caused us to acquire substantially all of the assets and none of the liabilities of Mobetize Inc. in exchange for shares of our common stock. The assets conveyed included a license agreement between Mobetize, Inc., Paysafe Group PLC (formerly Optimal Payments PLC) and Rentmoola Payment Systems Inc. We changed our name to "Mobetize Corp." effective August 13, 2013, in connection with this transaction. Mobetize offers services in the United States through our Nevada subsidiary Mobetize USA Inc. and to clients outside the United States through our Canadian subsidiary Mobetize Canada Inc.

Mobetize's principal office is located at #1150 – 510 Burrard St. Vancouver, British Columbia, V6C 3A8. Our registered statutory office is located at Nevada Agency and Transfer Company 50 West Liberty Street, Suite 880, Reno, Nevada 89501.

Mobetize trades on the OTCQB, an electronic trading platform owned by OTC Markets Group, Inc. under the symbol "MPAY".

BUSINESS

Mobetize is a mobile business to business (B2B) financial technology company (FinTech). FinTech is an umbrella term for describing disruptive technologies involved in the provision of financial services that are transforming the way money is managed affecting almost every financial activity. Under this umbrella Mobetize provides digitized payments and lending solutions to financial institutions (FIs), money service businesses (MSBs), and telecommunications (Telecoms) organizations (Telecoms) (collectively Customers), through its global B2B FinTech and financial services marketplace (Hub). The Hub provides a range of mobile financial solutions (MFS) which include white label technology platforms that support customer-specific products through application program interfaces (APIs) to provide the Services. Mobetize calls these solutions smartProducts, through which Customers are able to seamlessly integrate their existing programs to offer our Services to their subscribers or members (Users).

Mobetize is challenging the conventional model of how financial services are delivered and consumed with our solutions for next-generation banking offered through FIs or other digital participants (Services).

Users access the Services from the Hub through multiple access points including:

1. Desktop Applications

2. Mobile Web Applications

3. Native Applications for Apple iOS Devices and Android Devices

3

REVENUE MODEL

The HUB is designed to generate revenue from:

1) Transactional processing fees based on the volume of activity
2) Revenue share based fees for financial services delivered through the Hub
3) Recurring platform fees for licensing the Hub
4) Recurring fees for service level agreements
5) Consulting and professional services fees
6) Customization, integration, and deployment fees

Existing revenue is influenced by the growing global consumption of MFS and its adoption by Users who rely on their mobile devices as an access point to complete financial transactions. Future revenue will also be affected by our ability to innovate new technology processes and systems that our Customers offer to their Users. Our strategy is to drive growth by:

Leveraging existing contracts to increase Customer and User adoption
Enhancing business development efforts to expand sales globally
Evaluating M&A strategies to grow the business
Continuing to develop innovative Fintech solutions for the digital economy

FINTECH AND THE DIGITAL ECONOMY

The backbone of the digital economy is hyperconnectivity, which refers to the growing interconnectedness of people, organisations, and machines as the result of the Internet, mobile technology and the internet of things (IoT).

The digital economy is taking shape and undermining conventional notions about how businesses are structured, how firms interact, and how consumers obtain services, information, and goods.

A report published by Statista Research and Analysis titled Digital Economy Compass 2018 states:

Global FinTech transactions were valued at US$3.5 trillion in 2017 and are expected to reach US$8 trillion by 2022, following a projected annual growth rate of 18%. While China and the U.S. lead the FinTech market with transaction values of over US$1 trillion, Europe lags behind.
Digital payments contributed 80% to the worldwide FinTech transaction value in 2017, and are by far the largest component in the FinTech segment. The move to digital payments is an evolutionary step towards access to additional financial services that may one day replace the ubiquitous payment methods of today.
Alternative lending is currently the second biggest FinTech segment, accounting for US$381 billion in global transaction value. Borrowing money from an online community instead of going to a bank (or family members) is gaining popularity especially in growing economies, where traditional bank loans are more difficult to secure. The peer-to-peer lending sector in China has exploded in recent years to US$325billion in transaction value and is forecast to grow even further, at an astonishing rate of 24% per year through 2022.
Alternative financing is currently the smallest FinTech segment with a global transaction value of US$15 billion in 2017, with an average annual growth rate of 33% forecast through 2022, as entrepreneurs and small business owners begin to recognize its benefits.

FINTECH ECOSYSTEM

Globally FinTech "ecosystems" have stimulated technological innovation, made financial markets more efficient, and improved the overall customer experience. These ecosystems include traditional Telecoms and FIs that are faced with competition from technology giants such as Apple (ApplePay™) and Google (GooglePay™) who have proven their capacity to compete in the delivery of MFS. To remain competitive, Telecoms and FIs are constantly seeking to adapt to the digital age relying on a broad set of solutions from pure channel adaptation to radical changes in business models.

The World Fintech Reports of 2018 published by Capgemini, LinkedIn and Efma states:

FinTechs, innovating with emerging technologies are revitalizing the customer journey through financial services. Competition and rising customer expectations are driving the demand for convenience and personalization. FinTech firms are leveraging customer data to drive personalized offerings, and providing fast, 24/7, online services that can be accessed from any device.
Users of financial services have greater trust in traditional firms versus FinTechs. The future success of Fintechs must look to aligning with customer goals, maintaining trust, and delivering digital, agile, and efficient processes.
Unburdened by legacy systems and old-school culture, FinTechs have leveraged new technologies to rapidly respond to customer demands.
Traditional FIs are adopting many of the service enhancements offered to Users by Fintechs while retaining strengths including risk management, infrastructure, regulatory expertise, customer trust, access to capital, and more. Both traditional and FinTechs stand to gain from a symbiotic, collaborative relationship.
The future of financial services is in the hands of both FinTechs and traditional firms that can complement each other's strengths to meet customer needs while redefining the journey.

MOBILE BANKING AND PAYMENTS\

New forecasts from leading FinTech analysts, Juniper Research , estimates that over 2 billion users will access retail banking services via smartphones, tablets, PCs and smartwatches in 2018, up 10% year over year.  
New research, detailed in Retail Banking: Digital Transformation & Disruptor Opportunities 2018-2022 , found that accelerated adoption of FinTech Services in key emerging markets such as India and China means that mobile banking users now represent 50% of the global banked population. Juniper expects that the number of global mobile banking users will overtake online users in 2018, 2 years earlier than previously anticipated.

During 2018, mobile payments will generate $930 billon dollars worldwide and in excess of one trillion in 2019, according to TrendForce and NFCWorld. The adoption of mobile payments, encourages users to have a more positive image of a fully mobile banking system. In the United States, half of the adult population that owns a smartphone is already a mobile banking user

In China, a recent analysis conducted by Forrester concluded that " the most successful banks share a similar and iterative focus on mobile banking. All have built strong relationships between their digital business strategy and technology management teams, creating systems, applications or platforms that are "more successful with clients and which have made banks more profitable ."

6

According to the Forrester report Disrupting Finance: Digital Banks , a new wave of digital banks have embraced mobile and social technologies to create differentiation, using digital platforms to offer simple, convenient customer experiences with relevant guidance and advice. 

The rapid adoption of smartphones has made the enhanced mobile banking experience a means by which to extend the engagement with existing customers. 

MOBILE DEVICES AND FINTECH

Statista Research and Analysis reported that in 2017, that more than 3.5 billion people were connected to the internet thanks to mobile devices. Telcoms are uniquely positioned to be the leading providers of MFS to their customers by leveraging their own billing platforms. The fact that basic financial services can be done without a banking relationship further strengthens the opportunity for Telecoms.

MONEY REMITTANCE AND AIR TIME TOP UP

Juniper Research also found that international remittances, including airtime top ups via mobile phones, will exceed $25 billion by 2018, up 67% from an estimated $15 billion in 2015. The research found a significant upsurge in international remittance activity in the past 2 years with a number of cross-border mobile remittance services being deployed. For example, PayPal-owned Xoom announced in April 2016 that it will expand its services to thirteen new recipient countries. It found that international mobile money transfers are forecast to grow in frequency in all regions as users become more accustomed to using the service. Higher value transactions are also forecast, going forward.

The research also found that while international cash remittance growth has slowed, transaction volumes have surged in the airtime top-up market, where service providers are not required to obtain money licenses. The simplicity of airtime and the need to facilitate basic person to person (P2P) money flow means that these services still represent the initial deployments in many markets. Even though the international airtime transfer segment maintains very high commission rates when compared to international remittances, Juniper forecasts that the total number of mobile international airtime top up transactions will approach half a billion for the first time in 2018.

Competition

The global FinTech industry is highly competitive. We compete against businesses in varied industries, many of which are larger than we are, have a dominant and secure position in other industries, or offer other goods and services to consumers and merchants which we do not offer. We compete against all forms of FinTech service providers, including credit and debit cards providers, automated clearing house and bank transfers providers, other online payment services providers, mobile payments providers, and offline payment methods, including cash and check.

We compete primarily on the basis of the following:

ability to attract, retain, and engage Customers and their Users
ability to show that Customers will achieve incremental sales by using our Hub
security of transactions and the ability for Customers to integrate our Hub products and services
fee structure
ability to develop Services across multiple customer channels, including telecom and Fintech service providers
customer service
brand recognition
website, mobile platform and application onboarding, ease-of-use, and accessibility
system reliability and data security
ease and quality of integration into third-party mobile applications and operating systems
quality of developer tools such as our Hub programming interfaces

Mobetize seeks to become a leader in the global FinTech market place by focusing on its core expertise in cross-border payments and digital lending. We collaborate with FIs and Telecoms to bridge complex financial services with automation and mobility. Our open FinTech architecture for payments, money transfer, and loan origination positions us to potentially disrupt the current money services infrastructure.

DISRUPTION AND COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Disruption is coming from large players who already significantly impact consumer expectations. FIs, FI Aggregators and MSBs are challenged by these incremental disruptions especially from GAFA, BAT and other emerging challengers.

13

Mobetize has created collaboration-ready solutions to enable FIs, FI Aggregators, MSBs and Telecoms to improve responsiveness, acquire new customers, secure market share, and in some instances, provide new and enhanced services to their account holders. Today, disrupters such as GAFA and BAT are setting the tone for consumer expectations across multiple industries. Some have made incursions into the FIs space, with Amazon, Alibaba and Baidu as primary examples. Mobetize helps traditional players counter those threats from disruption.

Mobetize has developed a unique business and partnership mode to simplify mobile financial services. Our ability to Leverage key business relationships gives us a competitive advantage over other market participants:

FIs, FI Aggregators, MSB's and Telecoms are the basis for revenue share partnerships that operate as channels for us to acquire Customers and maximize transactional volumes. Partnerships can white label Hub Services or integrate via an API consumption model to market our smartProducts to Users.
Strategic financial services partners who typically offer bricks and mortar style financial services and products are eager to adopt our Services. We can digitize regulatory compliance and service fulfillment while introducing their digitized products to our channel partners.

Process

Mobetize co-develops innovation in a step-by-step manner, focused on the strategic goals of its Customers.

The collaborative approach includes:

gathering information from Customers and identifying pain points
consulting with Customers to devise and execute innovative plans that take into account weaknesses and strengths
assisting with the education and training of our Customer's management and employees to ensure effective roll out of Services
defining the correct engagement model, whether investor, acquirer, partner or accelerator
reviewing and creating data models on a regular basis to access the reactions and expectations of Users.

Patents, Trademarks, Licenses, Franchises, Concessions, Royalty Agreements, and Labor Contracts

Mobetize has no patents, registered trademarks, licenses, franchises, concessions, royalty agreements or labor contracts other than as detailed in this report. However, we do assert common law trademark rights for the following names in the field of mobile commerce:

smartRemit
smartCharge
smartBill
smartCard
smartLoan
smartMortgage

Common law trademark rights are enforceable in provincial courts in Canada, and may be asserted against those who appropriate, dilute, or damage the goodwill of our business by using the same or similar trade names or trademarks. Unlike statutory trademark rights, which are acquired by registration and provide nation-wide protection, common law trademark rights are acquired automatically and provide protection only in the jurisdiction where a business uses a name or logo in commerce. We intend to rely on common law trademark protection until such time as we deem it economical for our business to register our trade names or trademarks.

We have not registered for the protection of any rights under trademark, patent, or copyright in any jurisdiction.

Government Regulation

Government regulation impacts key aspects of our business. We are subject to regulations that affect the payments industry in the markets we operate.

Payments Regulation . Various laws and regulations govern the payments industry in the United States and globally. Our partner in the United States holds a license to operate as a money transmitter (or its equivalent), which, among other things, relieve us from reporting requirements, bonding requirements, limitations on the investment of customer funds and inspection by state regulatory agencies.

Outside the United States, the laws and regulations applicable to the payments industry in any given jurisdiction are specific to that jurisdiction.

Banking Agency Supervision . Based on our relationships with FIs in the United States, we are subject to indirect regulation and examination by financial regulators.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau . The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") has significant authority to regulate consumer financial products in the United States, including consumer credit, deposit, payment, and similar products. The CFPB and other similar regulatory agencies in other jurisdictions may have broad consumer protection mandates that could result in the promulgation and interpretation of rules and regulations that may affect our business.

15

Anti-Money Laundering and Counter Terrorist Financing . Mobetize is not subject to anti-money laundering (AML) laws and regulations in the United States or in other jurisdictions around the world. We are further not subject to laws designed to prevent the use of financial systems to facilitate terrorist activities. Nevertheless, we do intend to implement a comprehensive AML program designed to prevent our Hub from being used to facilitate money laundering, terrorist financing, and other illicit activities.

The mobile commerce industry is also subject to requirements, codes and standards imposed by various insurance, approval, listing, and standards organizations. Depending upon the type of product and the requirements of applicable local governmental jurisdiction, adherence to requirements, codes and standards of such organizations is mandatory in some instances and voluntary in others.

Research and Development

We spent $581,186 and $485,544 on research and development activities during the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Our efforts in research and development focused on new products and the enhancement of existing smartProducts.

Mobetize completed the development of smartRemit Native Applications for both Android and iOS. Part of this development was to improve our existing platform to connect to the second largest ATM network in Canada. Our approach enables us to have a single integration of smarRemit into the payment network of 175+ FIs. The network to network effect from connecting our remittance network to a banking network is an effective way to scale transactional volumes. Our approach and methodology can be replicated and scaled globally.

Mobetize also enhanced its existing smartLoan digital lending platform to process digital mortgages as a unique solution for FIs to provide instant conditional mortgage approvals.

Employees

Mobetize had five employees at March 31, 2018. Our employees include financial services experts, telecommunication specialists, engineers and administrative personnel. We outsource a portion of our research and development efforts to third parties and engage contractors, attorneys, and accountants to assist in the conduct of our business.

ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings

Stephen Fowler

Mobetize received a Citation and Notice of Assessment dated October 14, 2016 (Citation), pursuant to which Stephen J. Fowler (Fowler), a former director and chief financial officer of Mobetize, had initiated a complaint with the State of Washington Department of Labor and Industries for amounts allegedly due to him for unpaid wages. The Citation declared that Fowler is owed $45,000 in wages in addition to an assessed interest of $3,368.74, and a penalty of $4,500. On November 8, 2016, Mobetize entered an appeal alleging that the calculation of amounts due to Fowler was incorrect and that Fowler had improperly obtained shares of its common stock which it intends to recover. Mobetize received a response from the Department of Labor and Industries dated November 18, 2016, in which it was advised that Fowler's claim had been transferred to the Office of the Attorney General and that a hearing on the matter would be held by the Office of Administrative Hearings. A hearing date for this matter has been set for January 30, 2019, in Seattle, Washington. Mobetize believes that Fowler's claims detailed in the Citation are without merit. However, the outcome of this proceeding cannot be reasonably determined at this time.

Mobetize received a Notice of Civil Claim dated April 26, 2017, (Notice), filed in British Columbia Supreme Court by Fowler naming Mobetize and its directors as defendants. Fowler asserts claims against Mobetize for unpaid expenses, and breach of contract. He also asserts that his shareholdings in Mobetize have been diluted due to certain actions of its current directors, making claims including breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation and conspiracy. On June 23, 2017, Mobetize filed its response to Fowler's claims and submitted its own claims. Mobetize's claims include a claim that Fowler improperly issued shares to himself, is responsible for fraudulent or negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and unjust enrichment. Document discovery is in process. No further steps in this action have been taken, and no trial date has been set. Mobetize believes that Fowler's claims detailed in the Notice are without merit. However, the outcome of this litigation cannot be reasonably determined at this time.

Mobetize received a Complaint dated May 12, 2017, (Fowler Complaint), filed in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada by Fowler naming Mobetize and its directors as defendants. The Nevada action concerns substantially the same facts and the same relief as the Notice. Mobetize has taken the position that the filing of duplicative actions in two different jurisdictions constitutes an abuse of process and that British Columbia is the appropriate jurisdiction in which Fowler's claims ought to be heard, and that the Nevada action ought to be dismissed or stayed for these same reasons. On June 23, 2017, Mobetize filed a Motion to Dismiss or in the alternative, an Application for Preliminary Injunction to either dismiss or stay the Fowler Complaint. A hearing was held and Mobetize's Motion to Dismiss was denied. The court did however determine to stay the action pending resolution of the action in British Columbia. No further steps in this action, have taken place and no trial date has been set. Mobetize believes that the claims detailed in the Fowler Complaint are without merit. However, the outcome of this litigation cannot be reasonably determined at this time.

17

Cary Fields

Mobetize received a Complaint dated May 3, 2017, (Fields Complaint), filed in the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (Clark County) by Cary Fields ("Fields") naming Mobetize and its directors as defendants, to obtain a preliminary injunction to enjoin a consolidation of Mobetize's common stock, and seek damages for breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, and unjust enrichment. On May 18, 2017, after due consideration, the court denied Fields' application for injunctive relief. The court did not rule on the question of Fields' alleged damages. On August 4, 2017, Mobetize and its directors received an Amended Complaint seeking damages for breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, and unjust enrichment. On November 17, 2017, Mobetize filed Defendants' Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings. The court held hearings on the Motion on December 19, 2017, and on January 9, 2018, ultimately denied the Motion. Fields claims damages of $3,660,242 plus legal expenses. Document discovery and the taking of depositions is not yet complete. A mandatory settlement conference is to be convened on July 30, 2018, and a trial date is set for January 2, 2019. Mobetize believes that the claims detailed in the Fields Complaint are without merit. However, the outcome of this litigation cannot be reasonably determined at this time.

ITEM 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other parts of this current report contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements can also be identified by words such as "anticipates," "expects," "believes," "plans," "predicts," and similar terms. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results may differ significantly from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include but are not limited to those discussed in the subsection entitled Forward-Looking Statements and Factors That May Affect Future Results and Financial Condition below. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and notes thereto included in this current report. Our fiscal year end is March 31.

Discussion and Analysis

Mobetize's business model for the coming year is to complete the qualification of products under development and to increase sales of our existing products. Meanwhile, we will continue internal research and development efforts and collaborate with development partners to ensure the continuity of our product pipeline. We are maintaining our focus on providing services in the areas of payments, money transfer, and loan origination for FIs, MSBs and Telecoms. Our business development strategy is prone to significant risks and uncertainties certain of which can have an immediate impact on its efforts to realize positive net cash flow and deter future prospects of growth. Historically, Mobetize has not been able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to sustain operations and fund necessary operating expenses. Therefore, there can be no assurance that revenue alone will provide sufficient cash flows to sustain operations.

Mobetize's financial condition, results of operations and the carrying value of its technology depends on its ability to develop, market and sell innovative products and Services to FinTech Customers. Smaller technology companies in the FinTech segment of the market face a stiff competitive barrier to market entry erected by larger competitors that are generally better funded and accepted for product innovation. Despite recent successes in realizing revenue, Mobetize must continue to innovate and attract new customers in order to grow its Fintech market presence. Whether Mobetize will be successful in commercializing its products and Services in the manner embedded in our business model is yet to be proven.

21

Mobetize has no agreements in place to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Our inability to realize financing to supplement anticipated revenue to maintain operations and grow our business would materially restrict business operations. Financing may not be available upon acceptable terms, or at all. Should we be successful in securing future financing new issuances of equity or convertible debt would dilute our current shareholders and may include have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our issued common or preferred stock.

Our auditors have issued a going concern opinion on the financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2018, which indicates that the continuation of Mobetize as a going concern is dependent on continued financial support from its management and its ability to obtain necessary debt or equity financing, increase revenue, and generate profitable operations.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

During the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, Mobetize (i) continued to develop its FinTech products and Services; (ii) entered into certain development and commercialization agreements; (iii) acquired certain technology; (iv) secured debt and equity financing; and (v) satisfied continuous public disclosure requirements.

Operating Revenues, Operating Expenses and Net Loss

Our operating revenues, expenses and the resultant net losses are described below:

US $

Year Ended

March 31,

2018 2017
Operating Revenues $ 438,281 $ 467,417
Operating Expenses (1,841,877 ) (1,463,291 )
Net Loss (1,444,586 ) (1,153,254 )
Comprehensive Loss (1,449,326 ) (1,154,285 )

Revenue

Mobetize realized $438,281 in revenue over the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to revenue of $467,417 over the twelve months ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of 6%. The decrease in revenues in the current period can be primarily attributed to a decrease in consulting and development services provided by us to existing Customers. We expect revenue to increase over the next twelve months as we expect to add transactional and licensing revenue from the deployment of our smartProducts in fiscal 2019.

Operating Expenses

Our operating expenses for the twelve-month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017 are described below:

Research and development – related party (Note 7(a)) 149,528 112,470
Total Operating Expenses 1,841,877 1,463,291

Mobetize realized $1,841,877 in operating expenses over the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to operating expenses of $1,463,291 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of 26%. This increase in operating expenses in the current period can be primarily attributed to an increase in general and administrative fees, professional fees due to ongoing legal challenges, investor relations and research and development, offset by a decrease in general and administrative fees, investor relations, consulting, and management fees accrued to related parties. We expect that operating expenses will continue to grow as we expect to realize increases in general and administrative expenses, research and development and marketing over the next twelve months.

Net Loss

Mobetize recorded a net loss of $1,444,586 over the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, as compared to a net loss of $1,153,254 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2017, an increase of 25%. The increase in net loss in the current period can be primarily attributed to the 41% increase in general and administrative expenses, the 585% increase in investor relations expenses to a related party, the 218% increase in professional fees the greatest portion of which were dedicated to ongoing legal challenges and a 6% decrease in revenue. Despite our projection that operating expenses will increase over the next twelve months we expect that net losses will decrease over the same period as revenue is first realized from transaction and licensing fees.

Income Tax Expense

As of March 31, 2018, Mobetize has net operating loss (NOL) carry forwards of approximately $1,407,000. Should substantial changes in our ownership occur there would be an annual limitation of the amount of NOL carry forward which could be utilized. The ultimate realization of these carry forwards is due, in part, on the tax law in effect at the time and future events, which cannot be determined.

23

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception Mobetize has experienced changes in liquidity, capital resources, and stockholders' equity.

US $
March 31, 2018 March 31, 2017
Current Assets 74,231 709,000
Total Assets 154,113 828,273
Current/Total Liabilities 1,167,242 713,550
Working Capital (1,093,011 ) (4,550 )

Mobetize had a negative working capital of $1,093,011 as of March 31, 2018, and has funded its cash needs since inception with revenues generated from operations, debt instruments and private equity placements. Existing working capital and anticipated cash flow are not expected to be sufficient to fund operations over the next twelve months.

Total current assets as of March 31, 2018, were $74,231 which consisted of cash, accounts receivable and prepaid expenses. Total assets were $154,113 which consisted of current assets, equipment and our investment in the Joint Venture. Current and total liabilities were $1,167,242 which consisted of accounts payable and accrued liabilities, deposits due to customers, accounts payable and accrued liabilities to a related party, deposits due to customers, and a related party promissory note.

Total stockholders' deficit as of March 31, 2018, was ($1,013,129).

Cash Flows

Our cash flows are described below:

Cash flows used in Operating Activities (769,494 ) (482,911 )
Cash flows used in Investing Activities -   -  
Cash flows provided by Financing Activities 250,000 809,188

Cash Used in Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, was $769,496 as compared to net cash used in operating activities of $482,911 for the twelve-month ended March 31, 2017. The change in net cash used in operating activities in the current period can be attributed to the net loss for the period and a number of items that are book expense items which do not affect the total amount used in operating activities relative to actual cash used including amortization of an intangible asset, loss on Joint Venture, depreciation expense, accrued interest on shareholder loans, promissory notes and a loss on settlement of accounts payable. Balance sheet accounts that actually affect cash, but are not income statement related items, that are added or deducted to arrive at net cash used in operating activities, include accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and deposits, accounts payable and accrual of liabilities, and deposits due to Customers. Mobetize expects to continue to use net cash in operating activities in future periods until such time as net losses transition to net income.

24

Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities for the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, was nil as compared to net cash used in investing activities for the twelve months ended March 31, 2017, of nil. Mobetize expects to use net cash flow in investing activities in future periods as it grows its business model.

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities for the twelve months ended March 31, 2018, was $250,000 as compared to net cash provided by financing activities for the twelve months ended March 31, 2017, of $809,188. The change in net cash provided by financing activities in the current period can be attributed to a decrease in proceeds from the sale of Series B preferred stock to $nil during the twelve months ended March 31, 2018 as compared to $500,000 for the twelve months ended March 31, 2017. Mobetize expects to continue to rely on cash provided by financing activities as its business will require additional funding to meet forecast capital requirements to develop its product line and market its products.

We expect that working capital requirements will continue to be funded through a combination of revenue and issuances of securities as either debt or equity. Net cash provided by financing activities is expected to increase in line with the anticipated growth of our business.

Existing working capital, advances from directors, credit extended by directors and debt or equity placements combined, with anticipated revenue are expected to be adequate to fund operations over the next twelve months though we have no commitments for such working capital. Historically, we have financed operations through private placements of equity and advances or loans from directors. Increases in operating expenses and capital expenditures are expected going forward related to developmental expenses and marketing expenses. We intend to finance these expenses with further issuances of debt or equity securities while remaining cognizant that additional capital to meet long-term operating requirements. We currently have no agreements, arrangements or understandings with any person to obtain funds through bank loans, lines of credit or any other sources. Since we have secured no such arrangements the prospect exists that we will be unsuccessful in raising additional capital which failure would have a severe negative impact on our ability to continue operations. Further, issuances of equity or convertible debt will result in dilution to our current shareholders and could have rights, preferences or privileges senior to our outstanding common and preferred stock. If sufficient capital is not available to us, we will not be able to take realize our business model, which failure would materially limit or cause our business to fail.

We have no lines of credit or other bank financing arrangements.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

Our commitments for future capital expenditures were not material at year end.

We have no defined benefit plan or contractual commitment with any of its officers or directors, except those entered into in the ordinary course in respect to employment or services agreements.

We have no current plans for the purchase or sale of any plant or equipment.

We have no current plans to make any changes in the number of employees.

25

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2018, Mobetize has no significant off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources that is material to stockholders.

GOING CONCERN

The independent auditors' report accompanying our March 31, 2018, financial statements contains an explanatory paragraph expressing substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. As of March 31, 2018, Mobetize had an accumulated deficit of $8,922,901. The continuation of Mobetize as a going concern is dependent upon continued financial support from its management, its ability to market commercially viable products, its ability to offer innovative Services, obtain necessary debt or equity financing to realize its business model, and ultimately to generate profitable operations. Whether Mobetize can accomplish these objectives raises substantial doubt regarding Mobetize's ability to continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Mobetize be unable to continue as a going concern.

CRITITCAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 to our financial statements. While the selection and application of any accounting policy may involve some level of subjective judgments and estimates, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical to our financial statements, potentially involve the most subjective judgments in their selection and application, and are the most susceptible to uncertainties and changing conditions.

Revenue Recognition

Mobetize recognizes revenue from payment processing, licensing, and provision of consulting services. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Stock-Based Compensation

Mobetize records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options. ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. Mobetize uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of determining fair value. This model is affected by Mobetize's stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables. These subjective variables include, but are not limited to Mobetize's expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in the consolidated statement of loss and comprehensive loss over the requisite service period. Options granted to consultants are valued at the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or the fair value of the services received, whichever is more reliably measureable.

26

Embedded Conversion Features

Mobetize evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible debt under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings. If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

Derivative Financial Instruments

Mobetize does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. Mobetize evaluates all of it financial instruments, including convertible debentures, stock purchase warrants, and stock options to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives.

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 (loss). For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, Mobetize uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

Beneficial Conversion Feature

For conventional convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, Mobetize records a Beneficial Conversion Feature and related debt discount (BCF). When Mobetize records a BCF the intrinsic value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument (offset to additional paid-in capital) and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Directors of

Mobetize Corp.

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Mobetize Corp. (the "Company"), as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, changes in stockholders' equity (deficiency), and cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Mobetize Corp. as of March 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Going Concern

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations and has a net capital deficiency that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 1. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatements of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2017.

1. Nature of Operations and Continuance of Business

Mobetize Corp. ("Company") was incorporated in the state of Nevada on February 23, 2012, as Slavia, Corp. On August 13, 2013, its name changed to "Mobetize Corp." The Company provides Fintech solutions and services to enable and support the convergence of global telecom and financial services providers ("Customers") through its Global Mobile B2B Fintech and Financial Services Marketplace ("Hub"). The Company's activities are subject to significant risks and uncertainties, including the need to secure additional funding to optimize the Company's existing technology.

On July 11, 2017, the Company completed a consolidation of the issued and outstanding common shares on a one for one hundred (1/100) basis and a decrease in the number of its authorized common and preferred shares. All share and per share amounts have been retroactively restated to reflect the share consolidation.

Going Concern

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which implies that the Company will continue to realize assets and discharge liabilities in the normal course of business. As of March 31, 2018, the Company has an accumulated deficit of $8,922,901, a history of net losses and a working capital deficiency of $1,093,011. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon continuing financial support from management, increasing sales, securing debt or equity financing, cutting operating costs, launching viable products, and realizing profitable operations. These consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

a) Basis of Presentation

These consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") which include the accounts of Mobetize Canada Inc., and Mobetize USA Inc., both of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The consolidated financial statements are expressed in U.S. dollars. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

F- 6

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

b) Use of Estimates

The preparation of 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.

The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to the collectability of accounts receivable, revenue recognition, useful life of long-lived assets, fair value of stock-based compensation, embedded derivative liabilities and beneficial conversion features of convertible debentures, fair values of shares issued for non-cash consideration, and deferred income tax asset valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and various other factors that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the accrual of costs and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. The actual results experienced by the Company may differ materially and adversely from the Company's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

c) Cash

The Company considers all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less at the time of issuance to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company had no cash equivalents.

d) Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

Trade and other accounts receivable are reported at face value less any provisions for uncollectible accounts considered necessary. Accounts receivable primarily includes trade receivables from customers. The Company provides an allowance for its accounts receivable for estimated losses that may result from its customers' inability to pay. At March 31, 2018, the Company had accounts receivable of $40,619 (2017 - $113,140) and has not recognized an allowance for doubtful accounts.

e) Prepaid Expenses and Deposits

The Company pays for some services in advance and recognizes these expenses as prepaid at the balance sheet date. If certain prepaid expenses extend beyond one-year, those are classified as non-current assets.

f) Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue from payment processing, licensing and the provision of professional services. Revenue will be recognized only when the price is fixed and determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service has been provided, and collectability is reasonably assured.

F- 7

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – continued

g) Equipment

Equipment is accounted for at cost less accumulated depreciation and includes computer equipment and office furniture. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are five years.

h) Intangible Asset

Intangible asset consisted of a license with a definite life of two years and was stated at cost less amortization. The asset is reviewed for impairment or obsolescence when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. If impaired, intangible assets are written down to fair value based on discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques.

i) Joint Venture

Investee companies that are not consolidated, but over which the Company exercises significant influence, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Whether or not the Company exercises significant influence with respect to an Investee depends on an evaluation of several factors including, among others, representation on the Investee company's board of directors and ownership level, which is generally a 20% to 50% interest in the voting securities of the Investee company. Under the equity method of accounting, an Investee company's accounts are not reflected within the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss; however, the Company's share of the earnings or losses of the Investee company is reflected as a single line item in the Consolidated Statements of Loss and Comprehensive Loss. The Company's carrying value in an equity method Investee company is also reflected as a single line item on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.

When the Company's carrying value in an equity method Investee company is reduced to zero, no further losses are recorded in the Company's consolidated financial statements unless the Company guaranteed obligations of the Investee company or has committed additional funding. When the Investee company subsequently reports income, the Company will not record its share of such income until it equals the amount of its share of losses not previously recognized.

j) Long-lived Assets

In accordance with ASC 360, Property, Plant and Equipment , the Company tests long-lived assets or asset groups for recoverability when events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. Circumstances which could trigger a review include, but are not limited to: significant decreases in the market price of the asset; significant adverse changes in the business climate or legal factors; accumulation of costs significantly in excess of the amount originally expected for the acquisition or construction of the asset; current period cash flow or operating losses combined with a history of losses or a forecast of continuing losses associated with the use of the asset; and current expectation that the asset will more likely than not be sold or disposed significantly before the end of its estimated useful life. Recoverability is assessed based on the carrying amount of the asset and its fair value, which is generally determined based on the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and the eventual disposal of the asset, as well as specific appraisal in certain instances. An impairment loss is recognized when the carrying amount is not recoverable and exceeds fair value.

F- 8

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

k) Research and Development Costs

The Company incurs research and development costs during the course of its operations and in the provision of revenue generating professional services. The costs are expensed except in cases where development costs meet certain identifiable criteria for capitalization. Capitalized development costs are amortized over the life of the related asset. Costs incurred after the launch of a product or service are expensed as incurred.

l) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company records stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation, which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense based on estimated fair values for all share-based awards made to employees and directors, including stock options.

ASC 718 requires companies to estimate the fair value of share-based awards on the date of grant using an option-pricing model. The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model as its method of determining fair value. This model is affected by the Company's stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of subjective variables.

These subjective variables include, but are not limited to the Company's expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards, and actual and projected employee stock option exercise behaviors. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense in income (loss) over the requisite service period.

Options granted to consultants are valued at the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or the fair value of the services received, whichever is more reliably measurable.

m) Income Taxes

Deferred income taxes are determined using the liability method for the temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and income tax basis of the Company's assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes are measured based on the tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences are included in the Company's tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on anticipated future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases.

The Company's policy is to recognize penalties and interest, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as general and administrative expenses.

F- 9

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies - continued

n) Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share

The Company computes net loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings per Share, which requires presentation of basic and diluted loss per share ("LPS") on the face of the statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Basic LPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted LPS gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the if-converted method. In computing diluted LPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted LPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Due to the continued losses in the Company, all convertible instruments, stock options, and warrants are considered anti-dilutive. Consequently, as of March 31, 2018, the Company has nil (2017 – nil) potentially dilutive shares.

o) Comprehensive Loss

ASC 220, Comprehensive Income , establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive loss and its components in the consolidated financial statements.

p) Advertising Costs

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and are included in general and administrative expense in the accompanying financial statements. The Company incurred $18,098 and $9,565 in advertising costs for the years ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

q) Financial Instruments/Fair Value

Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , an entity is required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument's categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC 820 prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Level 1 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Level 2 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data.

Level 3

Level 3 applies to assets or liabilities for which there are unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, accounts payable and accrued liabilities – related party, deposits due to customers, promissory note – related party, and convertible promissory notes. Pursuant to ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, and ASC 825, Financial Instruments, the fair value of cash is determined based on "Level 1" inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

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.

The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and respective short-term maturity dates and current market rates for similar instruments. The Company is exposed to credit risk through its cash and accounts receivable, but mitigates this risk by keeping deposits at major financial institutions and advancing credit only to bona fide creditworthy entities. The maximum amount of credit risk is equal to the carrying amount of these instruments.

F- 11

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – continued

r) Embedded Conversion Features

The Company evaluates embedded conversion features within convertible promissory notes under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, to determine whether the embedded conversion feature(s) should be bifurcated from the host instrument and accounted for as a derivative at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in income (loss). If the conversion feature does not require derivative treatment under ASC 815, the instrument is evaluated under ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options, for consideration of any beneficial conversion feature.

s) Derivative Financial Instruments

The Company does not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. The Company evaluates all of its financial instruments, including convertible debentures, stock purchase warrants and stock options, to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives.

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 (loss). For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period.

t) Beneficial Conversion Feature

For conventional convertible debt where the rate of conversion is below market value, the Company records a Beneficial Conversion Feature (the "BCF") and related debt discount.

When the Company records a BCF, the intrinsic value of the BCF is recorded as a debt discount against the face amount of the respective debt instrument (offset to additional paid-in capital) and amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

u) Debt Issue Costs and Debt Discount

The Company may record debt issue costs and/or debt discounts in connection with raising funds through the issuance of debt. These costs may be paid in the form of cash, or equity (such as warrants). These costs are amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. If a conversion of the underlying debt occurs, a proportionate share of the unamortized amounts is immediately expensed.

v) Foreign Currency

The functional and reporting currency of the Company and its subsidiary, Mobetize USA Inc., is the United States Dollar ("U.S. Dollars"). The functional currency of the Company's international subsidiary, Mobetize Canada Inc., is the Canadian dollar. The Company translates the consolidated financial statements of this subsidiary to U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC 740, Foreign Currency Translation Matters, using period-end rates of exchange for assets and liabilities, and average rates for the annual period are derived from daily spot rates for revenues and expenses.

Translation gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of stockholders' equity (deficiency). The Company has not, to the date of these consolidated financial statements, entered into derivative instruments to offset the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

w) Contingencies

Certain conditions may exist as of the date the financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. The Company's management and its legal counsel assess such contingent liabilities, and such assessment inherently involves an exercise of judgment. In assessing loss contingencies related to legal proceedings that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company's legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein.

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

x) Recent Accounting Standards

In June 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-07, which simplifies the accounting for nonemployee share-based payment transactions. The amendments specify that Topic 718 applies to all share-based payment transactions in which a grantor acquires goods or services to be used or consumed in a grantor's own operations by issuing share-based payment awards. The standard will be effective for us in the first quarter of our fiscal year 2020, although early adoption is permitted (but no sooner than the adoption of Topic 606). We do not expect that the adoption of this ASU will have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.

On November 22, 2017, the FASB issued "ASU 2017-14 - Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income  (Topic 220), Revenue Recognition  (Topic 605), and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)". This update amends SEC paragraphs pursuant to the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 116 and SEC Release No. 33-10403, which bring existing guidance into conformity with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This update is effective in fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company´s consolidated financial statements.  

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15 related to the statement of cash flows. This new guidance addresses eight specific cash flow issues with the objective of reducing the existing diversity in practice in how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. This update is effective in fiscal years, including interim periods, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted. The Company has made a preliminary evaluation and expects no material impact to arise from the adoption of this standard on April 1, 2018.

In February 2016, Topic 842,  Leases  was issued to replace the leases requirements in Topic 840,  Leases . The main difference between previous GAAP and Topic 842 is the recognition of lease assets and lease liabilities by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases under previous GAAP. A lessee should recognize in the balance sheet a liability to make lease payments (the lease liability) and a right-of-use asset representing its right to use the underlying asset for the lease term. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, a lessee is permitted to make an accounting policy election by class of underlying asset not to recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. If a lessee makes this election, it should recognize lease expense for such leases generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. Topic 842 will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods and is to be retrospectively applied. Earlier application is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, cash flows, and financial statement disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09,  Revenue from Contracts with Customers . The new standard provides a five-step approach to be applied to all contracts with customers and also requires expanded disclosures about revenue recognition. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods and is to be retrospectively applied. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. The adoption of this standard is expected to result in additional financial statement disclosures

3. Joint Venture

On January 12, 2017, the Company entered into a Gateway License Agreement and Joint Venture Agreement ("Joint Venture") with CPT Secure, Inc. ("CPT"), a company controlled by a shareholder of the Company (related party), to further develop certain payment processing technology ("CPT IP") on a 50/50 basis. In connection with the Joint Venture, the Company issued 500,000 Series B Preferred Shares with a fair value of $125,000 on January 12, 2017, to CPT in consideration for the license to the CPT IP which was contributed to MPAY Gateway Services Inc. ("MPAY") on May 29, 2017. The license to the CPT IP has a term to January 11, 2019, and can be automatically renewed for successive two-year periods unless either party elects not to renew 60 days prior to expiration. The license fee of $125,000 is being amortized over the initial term of the license. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized amortization of $10,103 (2017 - $13,356) on the license prior to the transfer, which has been included in research and development expense.

Effective May 29, 2017, the Company and CPT incorporated a joint venture company, MPAY. The Company accounts for its interest in MPAY using the equity method of accounting. Upon incorporation of MPAY, the Company transferred the remaining carrying value of the license to the CPT IP of $101,541 (after accumulated amortization of $23,459) to MPAY, which was recognized on the balance sheet as an investment in joint venture. MPAY is an inactive company. The results of operations and financial position of MPAY include sales of $nil, net loss of $52,628, current assets of $69, non-current assets of $49,144, current liabilities of $300, and equity of $48,913. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company recognized a loss on joint venture of $26,314 (2017 - $nil), representing the Company's 50% interest in the loss (being the change in net assets) of MPAY. As at March 31, 2018, the remaining carrying value of the Company's investment in joint venture was $75,227.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, equipment cost increased by $500 (2017 – decreased by $241), and accumulated amortization was impacted by $238 (2017 - $155), as a result of foreign currency translation adjustments.

5. Promissory Note

On September 13, 2017, the Company entered into a Bridge Loan Promissory Note with a third party, whereby the Company received proceeds of $20,152 (CDN$25,000), which was non-interest bearing, unsecured, and matured on October 13, 2017. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company repaid the loan and paid a bridge loan fee of $1,942 (CDN$2,500) in consideration for the loan.

(1) November 21, 2016 Issuance - $40,000 (converted):

Issued net of $2,400 of prepaid interest, based on an interest rate of 6% per annum.
The conversion feature was exercisable at the option of the holder (the "Conversion Feature"). The Conversion Feature enabled the holder to convert any portion of their outstanding convertible promissory note principal balance into Series B Preferred Shares at $0.25 per share on or after May 20, 2017, but no later than the maturity date.
The Company evaluated whether separate financial instruments with the same terms as the conversion features above would meet the characteristics of a derivative instrument as described in paragraphs ASC 815-15-25. The terms of the contracts do not permit net settlement, as the shares delivered upon conversion are not readily convertible to cash. As the conversion features would not meet the characteristics of a derivative instrument as described in paragraphs ASC 815-15-25, the conversion features are not required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for separately. As a result, it was determined that no beneficial conversion feature existed on the commitment date.
On April 21, 2017, the Company issued 160,000 Series B Preferred Shares pursuant to the conversion of $40,000 of the convertible promissory notes. $20,000 of this issuance was owed to a Director of the Company (Note 7(i)).

Of the $125,000 Convertible Promissory Notes, $50,000 was owed to a Director of the Company (Note 7(i)).
The Conversion Feature enables the holder to convert any portion of their outstanding convertible promissory notes principal balance into Series B Preferred Shares at $0.50 per share on or after July 26, 2017, but no later than the maturity date.
The Company has evaluated whether separate financial instruments with the same terms as the conversion features above would meet the characteristics of a derivative instrument as described in paragraphs ASC 815-15-25.

As the conversion features would not meet the characteristics of a derivative instrument as described in paragraphs ASC 815-15-25, the conversion features are not required to be separated from the host instrument and accounted for separately. As a result, it was determined that no beneficial conversion feature existed on the commitment date.
On August 3, 2017, the Company issued 250,000 Series B Preferred Shares pursuant to the conversion of $125,000 of the convertible promissory notes.

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company had revenues from six customers (2017 –five customers) with 54% (2017 – 56%) of revenues generated from the Company's largest customer. At March 31, 2018, the Company's accounts receivable is concentrated and due from four customers (2017 – five customers) with 43% (2017 – 61%) of accounts receivable due from the Company's largest customer.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

a) The Company has an obligation under a rental lease for its operating office. As of March 31, 2018, the remaining term of the lease is 9 months with monthly payments of $4,995. The Company's lease includes a renewal option.
b) The Company received a Citation and Notice of Assessment dated October 14, 2016 (Citation), that Stephen J. Fowler (Fowler), a former director and chief financial officer, had initiated a complaint with the State of Washington Department of Labor and Industries for amounts allegedly due to him for unpaid wages. The Citation declared that Fowler is owed $45,000 in wages in addition to an assessed interest of $3,368, and a penalty of $4,500 ($20,535 (2017 - $18,346)) accrued net of advances receivable due from Fowler)). On November 8, 2016, the Company entered an appeal alleging that the calculation of amounts due to Fowler) was incorrect and that Fowler had improperly obtained shares of its common stock which it intends to recover. The Company received a response from the Department of Labor and Industries dated November 18, 2016, in which it was advised that Fowler's claim had been transferred to the Office of the Attorney General and that a hearing on the matter would be held by the Office of Administrative Hearings. A hearing has been scheduled on January 30, 2019. The Company believes that the claim is without merit and intends to vigorously defend its position. The ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be determined. However, in management's opinion, the likelihood of a material adverse outcome is remote.
c) The Company received a Notice of Civil Claim dated April 26, 2017, filed in British Columbia Supreme Court by Fowler, naming the Company and its directors as defendants. Fowler asserts claims against the Company for unpaid expenses of approximately $6,000, and breach of contract for unspecified general and punitive damages and legal costs associated with this action. He also asserts that his shareholdings in the Company have been diluted due to certain actions of its current director, making claims including breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, misrepresentation and conspiracy. The Company and its directors believe that Fowler's claims are without merit and are intent on vigorously defending against this action. Further, the Company has advanced counterclaims against Fowler, including a claim that that while Fowler was an officer and director of the Company, that he caused it to issue shares to himself to which he was not entitled. The Company's counterclaims also assert claims against Fowler of fraudulent or negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence and unjust enrichment. On June 23, 2017, the Company filed its response to Fowler's claims and its own counterclaims against Fowler and exchanged document discovery in November 2017 and March 2018. No further steps in this action have been taken, and no trial date has been set. In management's opinion, the likelihood of a material adverse outcome is remote. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the financial statements.

12. Commitments - continued

d) The Company received a Complaint dated May 12, 2017, filed in the Second Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (Washoe County) by Fowler naming the Company and its three present directors as defendants. The Washoe County action concerns substantially the same facts and seeks substantially the same relief as Fowler's British Columbia action (Note 12(b)). On June 23, 2017, the Company filed a Motion to Dismiss, or in the alternative an Application for a Preliminary Injunction to either dismiss or enjoin the Complaint. On October 31, 2017, the court held a hearing on the Motion which was denied. The court did however stay the Washoe County action pending resolution of the British Columbia action. No trial date has been set. The Company's exposure and assessment of the outcome of this claim are described in Note 12 (b) above.
e) The Company received a Complaint dated May 3, 2017, filed in the Eighth Judicial District Court of the State of Nevada (Clark County) by Cary Fields (Fields) naming the Company and its three present directors as defendants, to obtain a preliminary injunction to enjoin a consolidation of the Company's common stock, and seek damages for breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, and unjust enrichment. On May 18, 2017, after due consideration, the court denied Fields' application for injunctive relief. The court did not rule on the question of Fields' alleged damages. On August 4, 2017, the Company and its three directors received an Amended Complaint seeking damages for breach of fiduciary duty, conversion, and unjust enrichment. On November 17, 2017, the Company filed Defendants' Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings. The court held hearings on the Motion on December 19, 2017 and January 9, 2018 and denied the Motion. A trial date has been set for January 2, 2019. The suit seeks damages totaling $3,660,242 plus legal expenses. The Company intends to vigorously defend its position. The ultimate outcome of this litigation cannot presently be determined and management feels that a reasonable estimate of loss cannot be made at this time, nor is it probable that a loss will occur. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the financial statements.

13. Segment Information 

The Company has a single operating segment being the provision of Fintech Solutions and Services to businesses located in Canada and the United States of America ("USA"). Revenues are generated in Canada and the USA while all assets are located in Canada. During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company generated revenue of $249,100 (CDN$319,276) (2017 - $197,226 (CDN$258,862) in Canada and $189,181 (2017 - $270,191) in the USA. The costs incurred to generate this revenue are expensed as research and development. At March 31, 2018, and 2017, the Company's long-lived assets are located in Canada.

F- 24

14. Income Taxes

During the year ended March 31, 2018, the Company incurred federal operating non-capital losses ("non-capital loss") of approximately $1,377,000 (2017 – $750,000). As at March 31, 2018, the Company's cumulative losses totaled $6,118,000 (2017 - $4,708,000).

A reconciliation of the Company's effective tax rate as a percentage of income before taxes and federal statutory rate for the years ended March 31, 2018, and 2017, is summarized as follows:

2018
$
2017$
Loss before income taxes (1,444,586 ) (1,153,254 )
Income tax recovery at statutory rates (390,000 ) (300,000 )
Permanent differences 14,000 137,000
Temporary differences 321,000 211,000
Change in statutory, foreign tax, foreign exchange rates and other 55,000 (48,000 )
Income tax expenses -   -  

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of March 31, 2018, and 2017, was $1,406,000 and $1,479,000, respectively, which will begin to expire in 2033. The decrease in the valuation allowance is attributable to a decrease in the federal corporate tax rate which impacted the non-capital loss carryforwards. In assessing the recovery of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income in the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversals of future deferred tax assets, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. As a result, management determined it was more likely than not the deferred tax assets would not be realized as of March 31, 2018, and 2017, and maintained a full valuation allowance.

The unrecognized deferred tax assets include tax losses and difference between the carrying amount and tax basis of the following items:

Deferred tax assets:

c) On June 1, 2018, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the Second Amended Certificate of Designation of Preferred Stock of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock (the "Second Amended Certificate of Designation") that amends and replaces in its entirety the Certificate of Amendment of Preferred Stock of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock dated May 20, 2016.

ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Not applicable.

ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in rules and forms adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission"), and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Based on that evaluation, Mobetize's management concluded, as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective in recording, processing, summarizing, and reporting information required to be disclosed, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms, and such information was not accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting, as defined in rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and our Board of Directors; and
provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements

Due to its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

28

Mobetize's management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2018, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations (COSO) of the Treadway Commission, which assessment identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting.

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that creates a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement in annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Since the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting did identify material weaknesses, management concluded its internal control over financial reporting to be ineffective.

The matters involving internal control over financial reporting that our management considered to be material weaknesses were:

1. Lack of a functioning audit committee due to the number of independent members on our Board of Directors, which weakness could result in ineffective oversight in the monitoring of required internal controls and procedures;
2. Failure to maintain the segregation of the duties of chief executive officer and chief financial officer, which failure could result in inadequate implementation and review of financial reporting control procedures.

The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer in connection with his review of our financial statements as of March 31, 2018.

We do not believe the material weaknesses described above caused any material misstatement of our financial condition and results of operations for the year ended March 31, 2018. However, the lack of sufficient independent directors has caused us to delay the formation of an audit committee and the resignation of our former chief financial officer, has caused us to combine the duties of chief executive officer and chief financial officer on an interim basis. Should we fail to remedy these weaknesses, such, failures could result in a material misstatement in our financial statements in future periods.

Mobetize intends to remedy its material weaknesses as follows:

When in a financial position to do so, we intend to appoint a second and third independent member to our Board of Directors who would be tasked with lending an independent voice to the responsibilities incumbent an audit committee. Our Board of Directors has adopted an audit charter and expects to move forward with forming an audit committee as soon as practicable.

We intend bifurcate the position of chief executive officer and chief financial officer into two separate positions as soon as is practicable.

We believe the remediation measures described above will remediate the material weaknesses we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to diligently and vigorously review our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify, or in appropriate circumstances not to complete, certain of the remediation measures described above.

29

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. We were not required to have, nor have we, engaged our independent registered public accounting firm to perform an audit of internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the rules of the Commission that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

During the quarter ended March 31, 2018, there has been no change in internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

32

Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings

During the past ten years there are no events that occurred related to an involvement in legal proceedings that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of Mobetize's directors, or persons nominated to become directors or executive officers.

Term of Office

Our directors were appointed for a one (1) year term to hold office until the next annual meeting of our shareholders or until removed from office in accordance with our bylaws. Our officers were appointed by our Board of Directors and will hold office until the expiration of their employment contracts or removal by the board.

No other persons are expected to make any significant contributions to Mobetize's executive decisions who are not executive officers or directors of Mobetize.

Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership, reports of changes in ownership and annual reports concerning their ownership of our shares of common stock and other equity securities, on Forms 3, 4 and 5, respectively. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% shareholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us, or representations from certain reporting persons, we believe that during fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than 10% percent beneficial owners were complete.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to our officers, directors and employees.

Committees of the Board

All proceedings of our Board of Directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the corporate laws of the state of Nevada and the bylaws of Mobetize, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.

We had not formed an audit committee as of March 31, 2018, though we have adopted an audit charter and have determined to form an audit committee when two independent directors can be appointed to such committee Mobetize's Board of Directors has not established a compensation committee.

Mobetize's Bylaws define the procedure requirements for shareholders to submit recommendations or nominations for directors. A shareholder who wishes to communicate with our board of directors may also do so by directing a written request addressed to our president, at the address appearing on the first page of this annual report.

33

Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert

Our board of directors has determined that it has one member that would qualify as independent for the purposes of serving on an audit committee but may not qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and is "independent" as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Exchange Act.

We believe that the members of our Board of Directors, who may additionally serve on our audit committee in fulfilling that function, are collectively capable of analyzing and evaluating financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an "audit committee financial expert" would be overly costly and burdensome.

Director Independence

Mobetize is quoted on the OTCQB inter-dealer quotation system, which does not have director independence requirements. However, for purposes of determining director independence, we have applied the definitions set out in NASDAQ Rule 4200(a)(15), which states that a director is not considered to be independent if he or she is also an executive officer or employee of the corporation. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2018, we consider one of our director's independent.
