2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Basic of Presentation and Consolidation
   
  These condensed consolidated interim financial statements and related notes include the records of the Company and the following wholly-owned subsidiaries:

 

IGEN Business Solutions Inc.   Incorporated in Canada
Nimbo, LLC   Incorporated in USA

 

  All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, are expressed in U.S. dollars, and, in management’s opinion, have been properly prepared within reasonable limits of materiality and within the framework of the significant accounting policies summarized below.
   
(b) Reclassifications
   
  Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period’s condensed consolidated interim financial statements to conform to the current period’s presentation.

  

(c) Use of Estimates
   
  The preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles 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 condensed consolidated interim financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The Company regularly evaluates estimates and assumptions related to allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of inventory, the useful life and recoverability of equipment, impairment of goodwill, valuation of notes payable, fair value of derivative liabilities, fair value of stock-based compensation, 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.
   
(d) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
   
  A number of new standards, and amendments to standards and interpretations, are not yet effective for the period ended June 30, 2017, and have not been applied in preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.
   
  In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). ASU 2017-04 simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The amendment requires an entity to perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. An impairment charge should be recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value but the loss recognized should not exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The amendment should be applied on a prospective basis and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years.
   
  In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), which update the guidance as to how restricted cash should be presented and classified. The updates are intended to reduce diversity in practice. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those annual periods, with early adoption permitted.
   
  In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which updated the guidance in ASC Topic 606, Revenue Recognition. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should identify the contract(s) with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-14, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date. The amendments in this update deferred the effective date for implementation of ASU 2014-09 by one year and is now effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early application is permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that period. In April 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing, and in May 2016, ASU 2016-12, Revenues from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients both of which provide supplemental adoption guidance and clarification to ASU 2014-09. ASU 2016-10 and ASU 2016-12 must be adopted concurrently with the adoption of ASU 2014-09.
