MISSISSAUGA, ON--(Marketwired - April 05, 2016) - Axios Mobile Assets Corp. (TSX VENTURE: AXA) AXBSF ("Axios" or the "Company") announced today that further to its press release of March 4, 2016 it has identified certain errors in the financial statements previously filed for the periods ended March 31, 2015, June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015 as well as the disclosure contained in its associated management's discussion and analysis for such periods.

The following is a summary of the material revisions to the Company's amended and restated financial statements and MD&A that have been identified to this point:


Consolidation entries were recorded, which primarily reduced revenue and operating expenses in Q2 and Q3 of 2015, and reduced accounts receivable and accounts payable at June 30, 2015 and September 30, 2015. These entries had no impact on net loss in any period.


Timing errors between fiscal quarters within 2015 were corrected. The corrections primarily impacted the timing of cost of goods sold, stock based compensation expense, and debt settlement expense. The entries had no impact on year-to-date net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.


2014 comparative figures were adjusted to correct timings errors between fiscal quarters within 2014. These corrections impacted the timing of depreciation and amortization expense, interest expense, accretion expense, and other operating expenses. The entries had no impact on 2014 full year revenue or net loss.


Reallocations were made between line items within the statements of cash flows for Q1 and Q2 of 2015. These changes had no impact on the ending cash balance in any period.


Changes were made to account groupings and presentation of the statements of loss and comprehensive loss. Revenue previously shown in a single category has been separated into two categories, categories of operating expenses have been updated and expense previously reported as cost of goods sold are now presented within operating expenses. These changes, along with updates to the discussion in the MD&A, were made in order to more clearly reflect the results of the business in light of a shift in the Company's business model from a pallet manufacturer to a pallet pooling service provider in late 2014 to early 2015.




The revisions outlined above have no impact on the previously reported net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014, or for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Total equity on the Company's statement of financial position at December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2015 also remained unchanged.

In addition to the items noted above, management is reviewing equity transactions that occurred throughout 2015 to assess the valuation and accounting treatment of equity instruments included in those transactions. Any errors that may be identified during that review, and any others errors that may identified during the Company's concurrent work to finalize its year-end financial statements, will be incorporated in revised interim financial statements.

The Company is proceeding to revise such financial statements and associated management's discussion and analysis with a view to filing them on or before April 30, 2016.

The Company confirms that it intends to satisfy the provisions of the alternative information guidelines found in sections 4.3 and 4.4 of National Policy 12-203 Cease Trade Orders for Continuous Disclosure Defaults until the financial statements and related MD&A and CEO and CFO certificates are filed. The Company is not aware of any other material information concerning its affairs which has not been generally disclosed.

In view of this restatement, the Company has applied to the applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities for a management cease trade order. There can be no certainty that such an order will be granted. The applicable regulatory authorities may instead issue cease trade orders against the Company for failure to file its annual financial statements and related MD&A and CEO and CFO certificates within the prescribed time period. If a management cease trade order is granted it would generally not affect the ability of persons who are not, or who have not been, directors, officers or other insiders of the Company to trade in the Company's securities.
