Cortex Announces Restatement of Financial Statements

CALGARY, ALBERTA — (Marketwired) — 11/28/14 — Cortex Business Solutions Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CBX)(OTCQX: CTPNF), an enterprise e-Procurement solutions company, has restated its consolidated statements of financial position as of July 31, 2013 (“F2013”), July 31, 2012 (“F2012”) and August 1, 2011 and its consolidated statements of loss and comprehensive loss, consolidated statements of changes in shareholders– equity and consolidated statements of cash flows for the years ended July 31, 2013 and July 31, 2012 (the “Consolidated Financial Statements”). Further information on these adjustments and a reconciliation of amounts previously reported are contained in Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company has updated the disclosure presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements and has also restated the related management discussion and analysis (“MD&A”) for the accompanying periods to reflect events occurring subsequent to the original filing dates. The Company has amended the annual filings made for the year ended July 31, 2013 and for Q1, Q2 and Q3 for the fiscal year ending July 31, 2014 with comparatives for the prior year. However, the Company has not amended, and does not intend to amend, the annual filings made for the year ended July 31, 2012 or the interim filings made in 2012. Accordingly, the restated MD&A–s should be read in conjunction with the Company–s restated filings that have been filed on or after November 26, 2014.

During the fourth quarter of 2014, management revisited a certain contract that the Company entered into during fiscal 2009 (the “Agreement”). The Agreement included a provision whereby the Company is obligated to pay a rebate to the counterparty to the Agreements based on future gross revenues earned by Cortex, to a maximum of $2,300,000, where the rebate is paid on the basis of 5% of the Company–s gross revenue. Prior to this restatement, the Company had accrued the 5% rebate payable as actual gross revenues earned and recorded a rebate expense accordingly. Upon review of IAS 37, Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and Contingent Assets and IAS 32, Financial Instruments and Presentation–s contingent settlement provisions, it was determined that a financial liability should have been recorded for this rebate, instead of recording it as a rebate expense as revenues were earned Consequently, the Company has determined that a restatement is required to reflect this provision. Details of this restatement are discussed further below. There was no impact on the cash flows of the Company as a result of the restatements.

The rebate provision restatement was the result of a contract entered into by the Company in 2009 designed to secure the commitment of the Company–s first large buying organization as an anchor client. This contract enabled the Company to work with this buying organization to further assist the Company–s growth strategy, and resulted in that buying organization onboarding their supply chain to the Network. The contract had a provision for a 5% rebate to be paid to the anchor client at a rate of 5% of total future revenues until a maximum of $2,300,000 was rebated.
