| Six months ended February 29, 2008 | Unaudited |
1. ORGANIZATION
Destiny Media Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in August 1998 under the laws of the State of Colorado. The Company develops technologies that allow for the distribution over the Internet of digital media files in either a streaming or digital download format. The technologies are proprietary. The Company operates out of Vancouver, BC, Canada and serves customers predominantly located in the United States and Canada.
2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information and in accordance with Item 310(b) of Regulation S-B. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended November 30, 2007 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended August 31, 2008.
The balance sheet at August 31, 2007 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements.
For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the year ended August 31, 2007.
3. GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY
The financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the discharge of liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future.
During the six months ended February 29, 2008, the Company is aggressively implementing its business plan of transitioning new and existing customers (“record labels”) to transactional based contracts through the full commercial deployment of its “Play MPE”™ system. The Company is pursuing transaction fee based agreements with other large record labels and has developed an “Indie Uploader” system for smaller labels available on www.myplaympe.com. Through the six months ended February 29, 2008, the Company continued to utilize cash in operations ($1,078,138

3. GOING CONCERN UNCERTAINTY (cont’d.)
for the six months ended February 29, 2008 however, management expects revenues, and cashflows, to improve over the remainder of fiscal 2008. Depending on the Company’s ability to grow sales and related cash flows, the Company may need to raise additional funds to complete its business plan due to the significant working capital decrease. The Company’s goal is to obtain these funds through an optimal mix of internal and external financing opportunities including cash flows from operations, strategic partnerships and equity financings. There are no assurances that the Company will be successful in achieving these goals. In view of these conditions, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is not certain. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
4. OBLIGATION FOR SHARE SETTLEMENT
During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2003, the Company issued 133,333 common shares to be delivered in settlement for proceeds of $100,000 received in respect of a private placement that was not completed in August of 2000. As the private placement was not completed and although management expects that the amount ultimately will be settled through the release of the shares, the obligation for share settlement is recorded as a liability until a settlement is finalized between the Company and parties involved in the August 2000 private placement.

5. SHARE CAPITAL
[a] Issued and Authorized
The Company is authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share.
During the six months ended February 29, 2008, 48,000 stock options were exercised for cash proceeds of $22,000.
[b] Stock option plans
The Company had previously reserved a total of 8,850,000 common shares for issuance under its existing stock option plans, of which, 1,490,375 remain available for future option issuance. The options generally vest over a range of periods from the date of grant, some are immediate, and others are 12 or 24 months. Any options that do not vest as the result of a grantee leaving the Company are forfeited and the common shares underlying them are returned to the reserve. The options generally have a contractual term of five years.

5. SHARE CAPITAL (cont’d.)
The aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the underlying awards and the quoted price of the Company’s common stock for the options that were in-the-money at February 29, 2008.
[c] Stock-based compensation plans
Impact of Adoption of FAS 123(R)
At February 29, 2008, the Company has two stock-based employee compensation plans. Prior to September 1, 2006, the Company accounted for the plan under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No.25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations, as permitted by FASB Statement No 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation. Effective September 1, 2006, the Company adopted the fair value recognition provisions of FASB Statement No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, using the modified-prospective-transition method. Under that transition method, compensation cost recognized in the six-month period ended February 28, 2007 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted prior to, but not yet vested as of September 1, 2006, based on the grant date fair value estimated in accordance with the original provisions of Statement 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based payments granted, modified or cancelled, subsequent to September 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair value estimated in accordance with the provisions of Statement 123(R).
As FAS123(R) requires that stock-based compensation expense be based on awards that are ultimately expected to vest, stock-based compensation expense for the six-month ended February 29, 2008 has considerations for estimated forfeitures. When estimating forfeitures, the Company considers voluntary termination behavior as well as trends of actual option forfeitures.
Total stock-based compensation for the six-month period ended February 29, 2008 includes stock-based compensation expense related to employees of $137,224 and stock-based-compensation expense related to consultants of $24,980 reported in the statement of operations as follows:

5. SHARE CAPITAL (cont’d.)
Valuation Assumptions
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The weighted average assumptions used for option grants issued in their respective periods are as follows:
| Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||||||
| February 29 | February 28 | February 29 | February 28 | |||||||||
| 2008 | 2007 | 2008 | 2007 | |||||||||
| Expected term of stock options (years) | — | 2.5-5.0 | 2.5 | 2.5-5.0 | ||||||||
| Expected volatility | — | 85%-94% | 85% | 85%-94% | ||||||||
| Risk-free interest rate | — | 4.4%-5.0% | 4.51% | 3.9%-5.0% | ||||||||
| Dividend yield | — | — | — | — | ||||||||
The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the six-month period ended February 29, 2008 and February 28, 2007 was $0.27 and $0.19, respectively.
As of February 29, 2008 there was $89,079 of unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to employee stock options granted under the plans, which is expected to be fully recognized over the next 15 months.
Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the options is based on US Treasury bill rates in effect at the time of grant.

5. SHARE CAPITAL (cont’d.)
[d] Warrants
As at February 29, 2008, the Company has the following common stock warrants outstanding:
| Number of Common | Exercise Price | ||
| Shares Issuable | $ | Date of Expiry | |
| $0.22 Warrants | 950,000 | 0.22 | August 25, 2011 |
| $0.40 Warrants | 361,000 | 0.40 | February 28, 2012 |
| $0.50 Warrants | 5,800,000 | 0.50 | February 28, 2012 |
| $0.70 Warrants | 500,000 | 0.70 | April 9, 2012 |
| 7,611,000 |
5,400,000 of the $0.50 warrants have a forced conversion feature by which the Company can demand exercise of the share purchase warrants if the common stock trades at a price equal to or greater than $1.25 if certain conditions are met.
On September 11, 2006, the Company entered into an agreement with Bryant Park Capital to act as an exclusive financial advisor to provide strategic assistance and maximize shareholder value. As part of the agreement, the Company has issued 950,000 warrants with a strike price of $0.22. On April 9, 2007, the Company modified and expanded its agreement with Bryant Park Capital to include additional services not previously contemplated in the original agreement. As compensation, the Company paid Bryant Park Capital $7,500 per month to the end of September 2007 and issued an additional 500,000 warrants exercisable into common shares at a price of $0.70. The warrants vest monthly over the six months following the signing of the agreement.
The fair value of the 83,333 $0.70 warrants, which vested during the six-month ended February 29, 2008 was measured using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and amounted to $24,980. This amount was expensed to sales and marketing in the statement of operations.

6. COMMITMENTS
The Company is committed to payments under its premises lease, which expires on August 30, 2010 as follows:
| $ | |||
| 2008 | 132,851 | ||
| 2009 | 245,146 | ||
| 2010 | 245,146 | ||
| 623,143 |
The Company has entered into sublease agreements, to offset the cost commitments above. All sublease income has been reported in other income in the statement of operations and has not been reflected in the amounts disclosed above.
7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the period ended February 29, 2008, the Company entered into a sublease agreement with a director effective September 1, 2007. The term of the sublease is 1 year expiring on August 31, 2008, and calls for committed monthly payments of $6,016 which offsets our lease cost and a deposit of $12,260 has been received which will be applied to the last two months lease agreements. The rent deposit is included in accrued liabilities.
8. INCOME TAX
The Company adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109” (“FIN 48”), on September 1, 2007. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in accordance with FASB Statement 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes”, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement process for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, Canadian income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state and local jurisdictions. Based on the Company’s evaluation, the Company has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s evaluation was performed for the tax years ended August 31, 1999 through 2007, the tax years which remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions as of February 29, 2008. The Company may be assessed interest or penalties by tax jurisdictions, although any such assessments historically have been minimal and immaterial to the Company’s financial results.

9. CONTINGENCIES
On March 7, 2006 the Company filed a statement of claim in the Federal Court of Canada against Yangaroo Inc. (formerly Musicrypt Inc.) (the “Defendant”) to assert that the Company’s technology does not infringe on the stated patent owned by the Defendant and to further declare that Defendant’s patent is invalid. This statement of claim was initiated by the Company as a result of the Defendant’s statements to the contrary. On June 7, 2006, the Company’s counsel received a statement of defense and counterclaim from the defendant, requesting specified damages or audited Canadian profits from the Play MPE system if it is offered in Canada.
On January 11, 2007 the Federal Court of Canada issued a bifurcation order of the issues included in the action. Accordingly, only the issues of infringement and validity of the patent raised in the claim will be addressed in the current proceeding. The remaining issues including the counterclaim for specified damages will be subject of a separate determination to be conducted after the trial if it then appears that such issues need to be decided.
On May 3, 2007 the Company filed a statement of claim in Ontario Superior Court for damages against the defendant (Yangaroo Inc.), and executives of the Defendant, John Heaven and Clifford Hunt (collectively the “Defendants”) in the amount of $25,000,000 caused by the Defendants making statements constituting defamation and injurious falsehood, making false or misleading statements tending to discredit the business, making false or misleading representations contrary to the Competition Act of Canada, and unlawful interference with the Company’s economic relations. The statement further requests an injunction from continuing the actions instigating the statement of claim.
On June 7, 2007 the defendant filed a statement of defense, denying the allegations set out in the statement of claim dated May 3, 2007, and counterclaim against the Company and its CEO, Steve Vestergaard, also in the amount of $25,000,000, for making statements constituting defamation and injurious falsehood, making false or misleading statements tending to discredit the business, making false or misleading representations contrary to the Competition Act, and unlawful interference with the defendant’s economic relations. The Company further requests an injunction from continuing the defamatory actions.
No amount has been recognized as a receivable for damages as outlined in the statement of claim. The amount of damages awarded, if any, in relation to any claim or counterclaim cannot be reasonably estimated and no receivables or payables have been recognized. Management does not believe that the outcome of this matter will have an adverse impact on its results of operations and financial condition.

11. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In September 2006, FASB issued SFAS 157 ‘Fair Value Measurements’. This Statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This Statement applies under other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements, the Board having previously concluded in those accounting pronouncements that fair value is the relevant measurement attribute. Accordingly, this Statement does not require any new fair value measurements. However, for some entities, the application of this Statement will change current practice. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company will adopt SFAS 157 effective September 1, 2008 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
In February 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 159 “The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities – including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115” (“SFAS No. 159”) which permits entities to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value. This statement is effective for fiscal periods beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company will adopt SFAS 159 effective September 1, 2008 and does not expect the adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

OVERVIEW AND CORPORATE BACKGROUND
Destiny Media Technologies Inc. (“Destiny Media”) is a holding company which owns 100% of the outstanding shares of Destiny Software Productions Inc. and MPE Distribution, Inc. The “Company”, “Destiny” or “we” refers to the consolidated activities of all three companies.
Destiny develops software tools and provides services which enable content owners to distribute their digital media globally using the internet. All Destiny technologies are developed by internal staff, are proprietary and are owned by the company.
Content can be accessed in either a transient manner (TV, radio) or it can be owned locally by the consumer (DVD’s, CD’s). Destiny provides media owners both approaches over the internet through two product lines:
| A) | Clipstream ® Product Line | |
|
Clipstream® enables audio or video content to be “streamed” so that the audio or video plays instantly and automatically. This is analogous to TV or radio. Creating streaming video content with other technologies can be a complicated process and in many cases, users are required to purchase and maintain streaming servers. With Clipstream®, content owners simply encode the content into the Clipstream format, then upload to an existing website. Clipstream® is a standards based technology built around Sun Microsystem’s Java engine. Because Java is included in most operating systems and browsers, Clipstream® encoded content will play instantly. This means that a much higher percentage of potential viewers successfully see the content by using Clipstream® than with other solutions. Clipstream® users are not required to download third party player software which can create instabilities and allow unsafe external access to the user’s computer. | ||
| Clipstream® products include: | ||
| Clipstream®: embeds high fidelity audio and video on demand into web pages and emails http://www.clipstream.com |
| Clipstream® Live: embeds live video stream into web pages and emails http://live.clipstream.com | |
| Clipstream® IPTV: users can view TV and change channels remotely http://live.clipstream.com | |
| Clipstream® Audiomail: converts audio left on a telephone answering machine into an audio clip http://www.audio-mail.com | |
| Clipstream® Survey Solutions: secure video questionnaires prevent piracy and feature high view rates http://www.surveyclip.com | |
| Clipstream® Advertising Solutions: TV style video commercials and rich media banner ads http://www.clipstreamad.com | |
| Clipstream® Server Solutions: servers to power hosted sites http://www.clipstreamserver.com | |
| Radio Destiny: Software to broadcast internet radio from a home computer http://www.radiodestiny.com |
| B) | MPE® Product Line | |
|
MPE® enables the secure download of audio or video to a user’s computer. Content is protected from unauthorized distribution through two patent pending technologies. The first recognizes a user device as being unique, then encrypts the content to lock to that particular machine. The second patent pending technology embeds a digital trace or “watermark” into unlocked content, so that copies can be traced back to the owner of the original file. | ||
|
| ||
|
MPE® products include: | ||
|
| ||
|
Play MPEä: over 1,000 record labels use this service to deliver pre-release music and music videos to trusted recipients including radio station program directors, music buyers, record label staff and the media. Over 69,000 songs have been sent through this system. http://www.plaympe.com | ||
|
| ||
|
MyPlayMPE: a self service system for smaller independents to distribute music and music videos through Play MPEä http://www.myplaympe.com | ||
|
| ||
|
PODDS: a complete software suite to set up to securely sell music online. Includes encoding modules, accounting modules and the player software. This software can be utilized in an OEM agreement to set up third party online music stores. In addition, Destiny has set up its own store to sell music to commercial users in Canada (DJ’s, online jukeboxes, etc.) Destiny has an encoded catalog of 12,000 songs and album artwork under license from the four major record labels in Canada. http://www.podds.ca |

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED FEBRUARY 29, 2008
Revenue
Overall revenue grew for the fifth consecutive quarter on the strength of the tenth consecutive quarter of growing Play MPE™ system access fees.
Our revenues for the quarter increased to $359,809 which represents an increase of more than 100% over the same period in the prior year and exceeds our previous record, set only in the previous quarter of this year. The increase is driven by a 300% increase to Play MPE™ system access fees.
As a result of the seasonality of new track releases, we had anticipated a reduction in the use of the Play MPE™ system during the latter half of December and early part of January as our record label clients have relatively little activity due to seasonal holidays.
Effective December 31, 2007, we ceased to provide trial access to the Play MPE™ system for all independent record labels and promoters across all formats. As a result, during the past four months (to March 31, 2008) we have reached agreements with more than 50 independent record labels, and approximately 30 independent promoters. The independent promoter agreements in turn represent in excess of 125 independent record labels. Many of these agreements were reached later in the quarter or into our third quarter and we expect these contracts to have a more significant impact on revenue as the year progresses.
Given the seasonal slowdown, and transition to transaction fee based contracts, management is very encouraged by our revenue growth and reaching a record for revenue for the second consecutive quarter.
Effective April 1, 2007, we signed a one year transaction based agreement with Universal Music Group. Additionally, on December 18, 2007, we signed a North America wide content distribution contract with EMI Music North America covering all sub-labels of the EMI group Along with contracts covering an additional 24 sub-labels of Warner Music Group and Sony/BMG, we believe this represents a significant endorsement and another milestone in the road to establishing Play MPE™ as the global leader in the secure distribution of pre-release music to radio.
Though the agreement with EMI Music North America was effective November 1, 2007, the full rollout internally amongst all labels of EMI Music North America remains underway and thus revenue associated with this contract represents less than 10% of our revenue for the quarter. We anticipate this revenue to grow significantly as they complete their transaction to digital delivery throughout the next several quarters.
Overall, our revenues increased to $716,457 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 from $339,998 for the six months ended February 28, 2007, more than doubling our revenue from the previous year.
Approximately 22% of our revenues are derived from sales of our Clipstream® software, and decreased from the six months ended February 28, 2007 by 15%. We hope to increase sales of Clipstream® licenses through our hosted solution, which should be available later in this year, and other license opportunities.
Radio Destiny sales represent 2% of our total revenue.
Operating Expenses
At the end of the second quarter of last year we positioned ourselves to market and support the Play MPE™ line of services internally. This required hiring additional staff in Play MPE™ management and support and additional software development staff. This shift began in March 2007 and has been the most significant impact to current expenditures. Our staffing has remained substantially the same since April 2007.
Additionally, we began targeted marketing and advertising campaigns to develop the market for Play MPE™. There have been modest increases in technical costs like internet bandwidth, equipment etc. over this same time period. During the latter half of fiscal 2007 and throughout fiscal 2008, we have been servicing a fully operational Play MPE™ system as our clients continued to use our system extensively. This allowed us to expand the use at both radio and record labels and to establish the Play MPE™ network.
While we have had additional variations which are discussed in more detail below, our expenditures have remained relatively unchanged since completing this transition and are not expected to increase significantly as we continue to transition our clients to transactional based contracts.

| 631,739 | 265,679 | 366,060 | 137.8% |
Our general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs including overhead, professional fees, and other general office expenditures.
The increase in salaries and wages is due primarily to the increase in additional staff. The increase in professional fees is due to a greater volume of legal work associated with securities, litigation, contracts, patents and trademarks. Office and miscellaneous costs have increased as a result of a listing application, investor relations fees, and foreign exchange losses.
At the end of fiscal 2007 we moved offices due to a proposed rent increase and to accommodate anticipated growth in staff. We were able to secure approximately double the square footage for approximately the same cost as the proposed rent increase. The new space is sufficiently large and efficient to accommodate our growth while providing some space to sub-lease. The rent expense listed above is offset by our rental income which is included in “Other income” in the Statement of Operations.

| 921,590 | 517,899 | 403,691 | 77.9% |
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs including overhead, sales commissions, advertising and promotional fees, and travel costs. The majority of this increase was due to additional staff to further the distribution and acceptance of the Play MPE™ distribution system. The increase in advertising and marketing is due primarily to a rise in marketing fees associated with our MPE® system. As a result of this increased marketing expenditure, adoption and usage of the Play MPE™ system increased significantly during the quarter.
During the year, marketing efforts included attending various conventions to promote Play MPE™ as follows:
September 26-28, 2007: Exhibitor at the combined Radio & Records/National Association of Broadcasters Radio Show Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina (including several advertisements).
October 5-10, 2007: Billboard Dance Music Summit in Las Vegas, Nevada.
November 1, 2, 2007: The Hollywood Reporter, Billboard Film & TV Music Conference in Los Angeles, California.
November 15, 16, 2007: Radio & Record Christian Summit in Nashville, Tennessee.
November 28-30, 2007: Billboard R&B Hip Hop Conference in Atlanta, Georgia.
November 30-December 2, 2007: Billboard I Rock the Mic events in Miami, Florida.
November 28-30, 2007: Billboard R&B Hip Hop Conference in Atlanta, Georgia.
January 9, 2008: Billboard Digital Music Conference in Los Angeles, California.
Additionally, our staff have toured extensively throughout the United States meeting with major market radio networks expanding the knowledge and acceptance of our Play MPE™ system. Greater detail on our marketing efforts can be found at http://www.dsny.com/news/ ..
As part of our Clipstream® marketing we also attended:
October 5, 2007: Counsel of American Survey Research Organization’s (CASRO) 32nd Annual Conference in Scottsdale, Arizona.
October 29 –November 1, 2007: VON Fall Expo in Boston, Massachusetts.

Research and development costs consist primarily of salaries and related personnel costs including overhead and consulting fees with respect to product development and deployment. The increase is mainly due to increased staff.
Amortization
Amortization expense arose from fixed assets and other assets. Amortization decreased to $21,545 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 from $27,061 for the six months ended February 28, 2007, a decrease of $5,516 or 20%.
Other earnings and expenses
Other income increased by $42,115 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 and reflects rent collected from sub-leases of our office space.
Interest income increased by $14,959 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 as a result of the investment on GICs and bonds.
Interest expense increased to $9,243 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 from $7,228 for the six months ended February 28, 2007, an increase of $2,015.
Losses
Our loss from operations increased to $1,643,706 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 from $817,843 for the six months ended February 28, 2007, representing an increase of $825,863. Our net loss increased to $1,595,875 for the six months ended February 29, 2008 from $825,071 for the six months ended February 28, 2007, representing an increase of $770,804 or 93%.
For our quarter ending February 29, 2008, our acceptance and penetration for our Play MPE™ system had reached a level which allowed us to cease to provide trial access to our independent record labels and promoters across all formats. Since that time we have signed many of our users to transaction based contracts and we continue to pursue additional contracts. We anticipate expanding the use of our system by existing customers. Additionally we are in active contract negotiations with most major record labels in Europe, Asia and Australia.
Our revenue has increased significantly and we hope to continue this progress by way of increased revenue generating contracts for Play MPE™, an expansion into Europe and Australia and more use by existing customers. However, as we have increased staff and marketing expenditures our losses have increased. These increases are part of our business plan as we expect to continue to realize future increases in revenue.
LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
We had cash of $208,976 as at February 29, 2008 compared to cash of $1,215,183 as at August 31, 2007. We had a working capital deficiency of $3,239 as at February 29, 2008 compared to a working capital surplus of $1,339,722 as at August 31, 2007.
Working Capital
The decrease in our working capital is substantially attributed to the use of cash in operating activities of $1,078,138.
The change in non-cash working capital was $393,974 for the six months ended February 29, 2008, primarily as a result of delaying payment on accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Our accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased to $631,205 as at February 29, 2008 from $325,442 at August 31, 2007, representing an increase of $305,763 or 94%.
CASHFLOWS
Operating
Net cash used in operating activities increased to $1,078,138 for the six months ending February 29, 2008, compared to $373,180 for the six months ended February 28, 2007.
Investing
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $35,993 for purchasing equipment during the six months ended February 29, 2008, as compared with $11,989 investing activities for the six months ended February 29, 2007.
Financing
Net cash provided from financing activities decreased to $22,000 during the six months ended February 29, 2008, as compared to $2,280,923 over the same period in the prior year. The company received $22,000 of proceeds on the exercising of stock options as of February 29, 2008.
Going Concern
During the six months ended February 29, 2008, we are aggressively implementing our business plan of transitioning new and existing customers (“record labels”) to transactional based contracts through the full commercial deployment of its “Play MPE”™ system. We are pursuing transaction fee based agreements with other large record labels and have developed an “Indie Uploader” system for smaller labels available on www.myplaympe.com. During the six months ended February 29, 2008, we continued to utilize cash in operations ($1,078,138 for the six months ended February 29, 2008), however, we expect revenues, and cashflows, to improve for the remainder of fiscal 2008. Depending on our ability to grow sales and related cash flows, we may need to raise additional funds to complete our business plan due to our significant working capital decrease. Our goal is to obtain these funds through an optimal mix of internal and external financing opportunities including cash flows from operations, strategic partnerships and equity financings.
There are no assurances that we will be successful in achieving these goals. In view of these conditions, our ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is not certain. Our interim financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which would be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying interim financial statements.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and make estimates and assumptions that affect our reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and other assumptions that we believe are reasonable in the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The following critical accounting policies affect our more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparing our consolidated financial statements.
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis, which assumes the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of operations. If we were not to continue as a going concern, we would likely not be able to realize on our assets at values comparable to the carrying value or the fair value estimates reflected in the balances set out in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements. There can be no assurances that we will be successful in generating additional cash from equity or other sources to be used for operations. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability of assets and classification of assets and liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
We recognize revenue when there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, collection is reasonably assured, and there are no substantive performance obligations remaining. Our revenue recognition policies are in conformity with AICPA’s Statement of Position No. 97-2, “Software Revenue Recognition”, as amended (“SOP 97-2). We generate revenue from software arrangements involving multiple element sales arrangements. Revenue is allocated to each element of the arrangement based on the relative fair value of the elements and is recognized as each element is delivered and we have no significant remaining performance obligations. If evidence of fair value for each element does not exist, all revenue from the arrangement is recognized over the term of the arrangement. To-date, evidence of fair value for each element has not been available on sales arrangements. Changes in our business priorities or model in the future could materially impact our reported revenue and cash flow. Although such changes are not currently contemplated, they could be required in response to industry or customer developments.
| ITEM 3. | CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. |
As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures at February 29, 2008. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Steven Vestergaard and Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Fred Vandenberg. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting management to material information relating to us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. There have been no material changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could materially affect internal controls subsequent to the date we carried out our evaluation.
Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
