INDIA GLOBALIZATION CAPITAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
 
NOTE 1 – OVERVIEW
 
a)  Description of the Company
 
India Globalization Capital, Inc. (“IGC”) is positioning itself to be a dominant player in the emerging legal cannabis industry. This cannabis industry includes marijuana and hemp with each having its own legal nuances. We have a three pronged strategy that is compliant with federal and state laws that includes: i) the construction of state-of-the-art facilities that can eventually be used for growing cannabis, ii) the pending acquisition of a New York based crowd-funding backed broker-dealer, Midtown Partners LLC, that will hold conferences, write research reports and provide legal cannabis investment banking services, and iii) the introduction of pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products that use cannabinoid extracts. In India, we trade iron ore and lease construction equipment.  In Hong Kong, through a subsidiary, we trade commodities and electronic components.

Our short-term plans are to drive cash flow by (a) expanding the equipment rental business to several states in India, (b) expanding the trading business and (c) deploying indoor farming facilities.  Our medium-term plans are to acquire companies or management that can help us expand and diversify our assets to some of the areas that we have identified including legal cannabis.  Our long-term plans are to increase our commitment to our existing leasing business in India, and increase our commitment to new industries such as the legal cannabis, indoor farming, and eventually decrease our exposure to the beneficiation of iron ore in China.  Our strategy for the legal cannabis industry includes positioning the company in areas where we have a strategic advantage and can leverage our international presence.  These strategies include creating a portfolio of marijuana and hemp based patents, partnering to create and file for FDA approval of cannabinoid-based drugs for compassionate use, and creating an R&D lab in a country where we can legally grow the plants.

We are India Globalization Capital, Inc. (the “Company” or “IGC”), a Maryland corporation formed in April 2005 for the purpose of acquiring one or more businesses with operations primarily in India through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination.  In March 2006, we completed an initial public offering of our common stock.  In February 2007, we incorporated India Globalization Capital, Mauritius, Limited (“IGC-M”), a wholly-owned subsidiary, under the laws of Mauritius.  In March 2008, we completed acquisitions of interests in two companies in India, Sricon Infrastructure Private Limited (“Sricon”) and Techni Bharathi Private Limited (“TBL”).  Since March 31, 2013, we beneficially own 100% of TBL after completing the acquisition of the remaining 23.13% of TBL shares that were still owned by the founders of TBL.  The 23.13% of TBL was acquired by IGC-MPL, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of IGC-M.  TBL shares are held by IGC-M.  TBL is focused on the heavy equipment leasing business. In October 2014, as per a Memorandum of Settlement with Sricon and related parties, IGC received approximately five acres of land in Nagpur, India, valued at approximately $4 million in exchange for the 22% minority interest we had in Sricon.  The registration formalities for the land are expected to be completed in calendar year 2015.

In February 2009, IGC-M beneficially purchased 100% of IGC Mining and Trading Private Limited (“IGC-IMT”) based in Chennai, India.  IGC-IMT was formed in December 2008, as a privately held start-up company engaged in the business of trading iron ore.  Its current activity is to trade iron ore.  In July 2009, IGC-M beneficially purchased 100% of IGC Materials, Private Limited (“IGC-MPL”) based in Nagpur, India, which conducts our quarrying business, and 100% of IGC Logistics, Private Limited (“IGC-LPL”) based in Nagpur, India, which is involved in the transport and delivery of ore, cement, aggregate and other materials.  Together, these companies carry out our iron ore trading business in India.

In December 2011, we acquired a 95% equity interest in Linxi HeFei Economic and Trade Co., known as Linxi H&F Economic and Trade Co., a People’s Republic of China-based company (“PRC Ironman”), by acquiring 100% of the equity of H&F Ironman Limited, a Hong Kong company (“HK Ironman”).  Together, PRC Ironman and HK Ironman are referred to as “Ironman.” The parties are evaluating a number of strategic options with respect to Ironman, including a licensing arrangement, a strategic alliance, dividing the plants and/or terminating the entire arrangement.  As of this filing, we have made no final determination on this matter but we are attempting to negotiate with the previous owners of ironman to sell the assets back to them in exchange for the IGC shares given as consideration for the assets. We will continue to explore ways to maximize shareholder value.
 
On May 31, 2014, we completed the acquisition of 51% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Golden Gate Electronics Limited, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong and now known as IGC International (“IGC-INT”).  IGC-INT, headquartered in Hong Kong, operates an e-commerce platform for trading of commodities and electronic components.  The purchase price of the acquisition consisted of up to 1,209,765 shares of our common stock, valued at approximately $1,052,496 on the closing date of the acquisition.

On December 18, 2014, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Apogee Financial Investments, Inc. (“Apogee”), the previous sole owner of the outstanding membership interests of Midtown Partners & Co., LLC, a Florida limited liability company registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Midtown”), and acquired, in an initial closing, 24.9% of the outstanding membership interests in Midtown.  In consideration of the initial membership interests, we are to issue to Apogee 1,200,000 shares of our common stock (subject to downward adjustment based on certain Q4 2014 financial statement matters).  Following the receipt of all required SEC, FINRA and other regulatory approvals, we have agreed to acquire, in a final closing, the remaining 75.1% of the outstanding membership interests in Midtown in consideration of our issuance to Apogee of an additional 700,000 shares of our common stock (subject to downward adjustment based on certain financial statement matters prior to the final closing).
 
Unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to the “Company,” “IGC,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to India Globalization Capital, Inc., together with our wholly-owned subsidiaries HK Ironman and IGC-M, as well as our direct and indirect subsidiaries PRC Ironman, TBL, IGC-IMT, IGC-MPL, IGC-LPL, and IGC-INT.

NOTE 2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
a)  Basis of preparation of financial statements
 
The Company has prepared the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”) in accordance with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements.  Therefore, the Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 filed with the SEC on July15, 2014.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation have been included in the Financial Statements.  The results for interim periods do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. The significant accounting policies adopted by the Company, in respect of these consolidated financial statements, are set out below. The Company’s current fiscal year ends on March 31, 2015.
 
b)  Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all of its subsidiaries that are more than 50% owned and controlled. The financial statements of the parent company and its majority owned or controlled subsidiaries have been combined on a line by line basis by adding together the book values of all items of assets, liabilities, incomes and expenses after eliminating all inter-company balances and transactions and resulting unrealized gain or loss. Operating results of companies acquired are included from the dates of acquisition.

c)  Non-controlling interests
 
Non-controlling interests in the Company’s consolidated financial statements result from the accounting for non-controlling interests in its subsidiaries.  Non-controlling interests represent the subsidiaries’ earnings and components of other comprehensive income that are attributed to the non-controlling parties’ equity interests.  The Company consolidates the subsidiaries into its consolidated financial statements.  Transactions between the Company and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
 
The Company accounts for investments by the equity method where its investment in the voting stock gives it the ability to exercise significant influence over the investee but not control.  In situations, such as the Company’s ownership interest in Sricon Infrastructure Private Limited (“Sricon”), wherein the Company is not able to exercise significant influence in spite of having 20% or more of the voting stock, the Company has accounted for the investment based on the cost method.  In addition, the Company consolidates any Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) if it is determined to be the primary beneficiary.  However, as of December 31, 2014, the Company does not have any interest in any VIE or equity method investment.
 
The non-controlling interest disclosed in the accompanying consolidated financial statements represents the non-controlling interest of subsidiaries in which our ownership is less than one hundred percent, as is the case of Ironman and IGC-INT.
 
The adoption of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810-10-65 "Consolidation - Transition and Open Effective Date Information" (previously referred to as SFAS No. 160, "Non-controlling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51"), has resulted in the reclassification of amounts previously attributable to minority interest (now referred to as non-controlling interest) to a separate component of shareholders’ equity on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity and comprehensive income (loss).  Additionally, net income attributable to non-controlling interest is shown separately from net income in the consolidated statements of income.  This reclassification had no effect on our previously reported financial position or results of operations.

d)  Use of estimates
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. 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 financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
 
9

 
Management believes that the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements are prudent and reasonable.  Significant estimates and assumptions are used for, but not limited to: allowance for uncollectible accounts receivable; future obligations under employee benefit plans; the useful lives of property, plant, equipment; intangible assets; the valuation of assets and liabilities acquired in a business combination; impairment of goodwill and investments; recoverability of advances; the valuation of options granted and warrants issued; and income tax and deferred tax valuation allowances.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Appropriate changes in estimates are made as management becomes aware of changes in circumstances surrounding the estimates.  Critical accounting estimates could change from period to period and could have a material impact on IGC’s results, operations, financial position and cash flows.
 
Changes in estimates are reflected in the financial statements in the period in which changes are made and, if material, their effects are disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

e)  Foreign currency translation
 
IGC operates in India, Hong Kong and China and a substantial portion of the Company’s sales are denominated in INR, HKD and RMB, as of those respective operations. As a result, changes in the relative values of the U.S. dollar and INR, HKD or the RMB affect revenues and profits as the results are translated into U.S. dollars in the consolidated and pro forma financial statements.

The accompanying financial statements are reported in U.S. dollars. The INR, HKD and the RMB are the functional currencies for the Company. The translation of the functional currencies into U.S. dollars is performed for assets and liabilities using the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date and for revenues, costs and expenses using average exchange rates prevailing during the reporting periods. Adjustments resulting from the translation of functional currency financial statements to reporting currency are accumulated and reported as other comprehensive income/(loss), a separate component of shareholders’ equity. The exchange rates used for translation purposes are as follows:

f)  Revenue recognition
 
The majority of the revenue recognized for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2014 was derived from the Company’s subsidiaries and recognized as follows:
 
Revenue is recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.  In government contracting, the Company recognizes revenue when a government consultant verifies and certifies an invoice for payment.
 
Revenue from sale of goods is recognized when substantial risks and rewards of ownership are transferred to the buyer under the terms of the contract.
 
For the sale of goods, the timing of the transfer of substantial risks and rewards of ownership is based on the contract terms negotiated with the buyer, e.g., FOB or CIF.  IGC considers the guidance provided under Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) 104 in determining revenue from sales of goods.  Considerations have been given to all four conditions for revenue recognition under that guidance.  The four conditions are:
 
▪      Contract – Persuasive evidence of our arrangement with the customers;
 
Delivery – Based on the terms of the contracts, the Company assesses whether the underlying goods have been delivered and therefore the risks and rewards of ownership are completely transferred;  
 
 
10

 
 
Fixed or determinable price – The Company enters into contracts where the price for the goods being sold is fixed and not contingent upon other factors; and
 
Collection is deemed probable – At the time of recognition of revenue, the Company makes an assessment of its ability to collect the receivable arising on the sale of the goods and determines that collection is probable.
 
Revenue for any sale is recognized only if all of the four conditions set forth above are met.  The Company assesses these criteria at the time of each sale.  In the absence of meeting any of the criteria set out above, the Company defers revenue recognition until all of the four conditions are met.

Specifically, revenue from the trade of iron ore is recognized when the finished product is sold and meets the criteria set out above.  Our customers, typically, buy the finished product on a spot basis with a deposit and a 60-day payment term, or in some cases for cash on delivery. In cases where iron ore is shipped from India to a customer in China, as an example, a typical CIF contract pays 95% at the time that the ship leaves port and the remaining 5% when the iron ore passes inspection in China. Therefore, 95% of the revenue is recognized first and the remaining 5% is recognized later, and can take up to 90 days. CIF contracts are guaranteed by letters of credit from the customer.
 
Revenue from construction/project related activity and contracts for supply/commissioning of complex plant and equipment is recognized as follows:
 
 
a)
Cost plus contracts: Contract revenue is determined by adding the aggregate cost plus proportionate margin as agreed with the customer and expected to be realized.
 
b)
Fixed price contracts: Contract revenue is recognized using the percentage completion method and the percentage of completion is determined as a proportion of cost incurred-to-date to the total estimated contract cost.  Changes in estimates for revenues, costs to complete and profit margins are recognized in the period in which they are reasonably determinable.
 
▪ In many of the fixed price contracts entered into by the Company, significant expenses are incurred in the mobilization stage in the early stages of the contract.  The expenses include those that are incurred in the transportation of machinery, erection of heavy machinery, clearing of the campsite, workshop ground cost, overheads, etc.  All such costs are booked to deferred expenses and written off over the period in proportion to revenues earned.
 
▪ Where the modifications of the original contract are such that they effectively add to the existing scope of the contract, the same are treated as a change orders.  On the other hand, where the modifications are such that they change or add an altogether new scope, these are accounted for as a separate new contract.  The Company adjusts contract revenue and costs in connection with change orders only when they are approved by both, the customer and the Company with respect to both the scope and invoicing and payment terms.
 
▪ In the event of claims in our percentage of completion contracts, the additional contract revenue relating to claims is only accounted after the proper award of the claim by the competent authority.  The contract claims are considered in the percentage of completion only after the proper award of the claim by the competent authority. 
 
Full provision is made for any loss in the period in which it is foreseen.
 
Revenue from service related activities and miscellaneous other contracts are recognized when the service is rendered using the proportionate completion method or completed service contract method.
 
g)  Accounts receivable
 
Accounts receivable from Indian authorities and companies is recorded at the invoiced amount, taking into consideration any adjustments made by the Indian government consultants who verify and certify construction and material invoices.  Also, the Company evaluates the collectability of selected accounts receivable on a case-by-case basis and makes adjustments to the bad debt reserve for expected losses.  For all other accounts, the Company estimates reserves for bad debts based on general aging, experience and past-due status of the accounts. When applicable, the Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of clients to make required payments.  The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by evaluating the relative credit worthiness of each client, historical collections experience and other information, including the aging of the receivables.  If circumstances related to customers change, estimates of recoverability would be further adjusted. 
 
 
11

 
Regarding our collection policy on commodity, electronic trading receivables, there are three types of trades: 1) payment guaranteed through letters of credit, 2) deposit or spot payment on delivery or 3) delivery on credit. With the first type of trade: our policy for collection is to ask the customer to open a letter of credit with a bank. The typical terms of the letter of credit are that 95% of the payment is made when the material is delivered to the ship, which is verified by the bank with documents including a Bill of Lading, if required. The remaining 5% is paid when the material reaches the port of discharge if it is being shipped from a foreign country. Once the material is unloaded, a CIQ or Certificate of Quality, in the case of iron ore as an example, is produced using a third party to verify the quality of the material.  Once this is done, the remaining 5% of the payment is released by the bank.  With the second type of trade, customers pay on delivery. If payment is not received the material is not delivered to the customer. On the third type of trade, our policy is to allow the customer to have a payment credit term of 90 days.
 
h) Inventories
 
We provide for inventory obsolescence, excess inventory and inventories with carrying values in excess of market values based on our assessment of the future demands, market conditions and our specific inventory management procedures.  If market conditions and actual demands are less favorable than our estimates, additional inventory write-downs may be required.  In all cases, inventory is carried at the lower of historical cost or market value.

i)  Investments
 
Investments are initially measured at cost, which is the fair value of the consideration given for them, including transaction costs.  The Company's equity in the earnings/(losses) of affiliates is included in the statement of income and the Company's share of net assets of affiliates is included in the balance sheet.  Where the Company’s ownership interest in spite of being in excess of 20% is not sufficient to exercise significant influence, the Company has accounted for the investment based on the cost method. 
 
j)  Property, Plant and Equipment (PP&E)
 
Property and equipment are recorded at cost net of accumulated depreciation and depreciated over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:
 
Buildings
5-25 years
Plant and machinery
10-20 years
Computer equipment
3-5 years
Office equipment
3-5 years
Furniture and fixtures
5-10 years
Vehicles
5-10 years
 
Upon retirement or disposition, cost and related accumulated depreciation of the property and equipment are de-recognized from the books of accounts and the gain or loss is reflected in the results of operation.  Cost of additions and substantial improvements to property and equipment are capitalized in the books of accounts.  The cost of maintenance and repairs of the property and equipment are charged to operating expenses as incurred.
 
k)  Impairment of long – lived assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, with finite lives, for impairment whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be fully recoverable.  Such circumstances include, though are not limited to, significant or sustained declines in revenues or earnings, future anticipated cash flows, business plans and material adverse changes in the economic climate, such as changes in operating environment, competitive information and impact of changes in government policies.  For assets that the Company intends to hold for use, if the total of the expected future undiscounted cash flows produced by the assets or subsidiary company is less than the carrying amount of the assets, a loss is recognized for the difference between the fair value and carrying value of the assets.  For assets the Company intends to dispose of by sale, a loss is recognized for the amount by which the estimated fair value less cost to sell is less than the carrying value of the assets.  Fair value is determined based on quoted market prices, if available, or other valuation techniques including discounted future net cash flows.
  
l)  Earnings per common share
 
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the additional dilution from all potentially dilutive securities such as stock warrants and options.
 
 
12

 
m)  Income taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, in accordance with ASC 740, Income Taxes, which requires an entity to recognize deferred tax liabilities and assets.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequence attributable to the differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards.  Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the enacted tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.  The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date.  A valuation allowance is established and recorded when management determines that some or all of the deferred tax assets are not likely to be realized and therefore, it is necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

In evaluating a tax position for recognition, management evaluates whether it is more-likely-than-not that a position will be sustained upon examination, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, based on technical merits of the position.  If the tax position meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the tax position is measured and recognized in the Company’s financial statements as the largest amount of tax benefit that, in management’s judgment, is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement.
 
n) Cash and cash equivalents
 
For financial statement purposes, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments with maturity of three months or less, to be cash equivalents.  The Company maintains its cash in bank accounts in the United States of America, Mauritius, India, China and Hong Kong, which at times may exceed applicable insurance limits.  The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts.  The Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalent.  The Company does not invest its cash in securities that have an exposure to U.S. mortgages.
 
o)  Restricted cash
 
Restricted cash consists of deposits pledged to various government authorities and deposits used as collateral with banks for guarantees and letters of credit, given by the Company to its customers or vendors.
 
p)  Fair value of financial instruments
 
As of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the carrying amounts of the Company's financial instruments, which included cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, unbilled accounts receivable, restricted cash, accounts payable, accrued employee compensation and benefits and other accrued expenses, approximate their fair values due to the nature of the items.
 
q)  Concentration of credit risk and significant customers
 
Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, are primarily comprised of cash and cash equivalents, investments, derivatives, accounts receivable and unbilled accounts receivable.  The Company places its cash, investments and derivatives in highly rated financial institutions.  The Company adheres to a formal investment policy with the primary objective of preservation of principal, which contains credit rating minimums and diversification requirements.  Management believes its credit policies reflect normal industry terms and business risk.  The Company does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties and, accordingly, does not require collateral.
 
During this quarter, sales were spread across many customers in Hong Kong and India, and therefore the credit concentration risk is low.

r) Leased mineral rights

In China, costs to obtain leased mineral rights are capitalized and amortized to operations as depletion expense within the leased periods, using the straight-line method.  Depletion expenses are included in depreciation and amortization on the accompanying statement of operations. As of December 31, 2014, we have no leased mineral rights.

s)  Business combination
 
In accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, the Company uses the purchase method of accounting for all business combinations consummated after June 30, 2001.  Intangible assets acquired in a business combination are recognized and reported apart from goodwill if they meet the criteria specified in ASC Topic 805.  Any purchase price allocated to an assembled workforce is not accounted separately.
 
 
13

 
t)  Employee benefits plan
 
In accordance with applicable Indian laws, the Company provides for gratuity, a defined benefit retirement plan (Gratuity Plan) covering certain categories of employees.  The Gratuity Plan provides a lump sum payment to vested employees, at retirement or termination of employment, an amount based on the respective employee’s last drawn salary and the years of employment with the Company.  In addition, all employees receive benefits from a provident fund, a defined contribution plan.  The employee and employer each make monthly contributions to the plan equal to 12% of the covered employee’s salary.  The contribution is made to the Government’s provident fund.
 
At this time, the Company does not participate in a multi-employer defined contribution plan in China to provide employees with certain retirement, medical and other fringe benefits because most of the Company’s workers are contractors employed through agencies or other companies.  In the U.S. we provide health insurance, life insurance and 401 K benefits. The Company makes a 401-K matching contribution up to 3% of the employee’s annual salary.
 
u)  Commitments and contingencies

Liabilities for loss contingencies arising from claims, assessments, litigations, fines and penalties and other sources are recorded when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the assessment and/or remediation can be reasonably estimated.
 
v)  Accounting for goodwill and related impairment
 
Goodwill represents the excess cost of an acquisition over the fair value of our share of net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary at the date of acquisition.  Goodwill on acquisition of subsidiaries is disclosed separately.  Goodwill is stated at cost less impairment losses incurred, if any.
 
The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 350, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Others” (previously referred to as SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which sets forth the accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their acquisition.  ASC 350 requires that goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets be allocated to the reporting unit level, which the Company defines as each subsidiary.  ASC 350 also prohibits the amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets upon adoption, but requires that they be tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently as warranted, at the reporting unit level.
 
Pursuant to ASC 350-20-35-4 through 35-19, the impairment testing of goodwill is a two-step process.  The first step of the goodwill impairment test, used to identify potential impairment, compares the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount, including goodwill.  If the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired, thus the second step of the impairment test is unnecessary.  If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test shall be performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any.  The second step of the goodwill impairment test, used to measure the amount of impairment loss, compares the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill.  If the carrying amount of reporting unit goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of that goodwill, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess.  The loss recognized cannot exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.  After a goodwill impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of goodwill shall be its new accounting basis.  Subsequent reversal of a previously recognized goodwill impairment loss is prohibited once the measurement of that loss is completed.

In ASC 350.20.20, a reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment.  A component of an operating segment is a reporting unit if the component constitutes a business for which discrete financial information is available and segment management regularly reviews the operating results of that component.  The Company has determined that it operates in a single operating segment.  While the Company’s Chief Executive Officer reviews the consolidated financial information for the purposes of decisions relating to resource allocation, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, on an as-need basis, looks at the financial statements of the individual legal entities in India for the limited purpose of consolidation.  Given the existence of discrete financial statements at an individual entity level in India, the Company believes that each of these entities constitute a separate reporting unit under a single operating segment.
 
In the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, the Company acquired 23% ownership of its Indian subsidiary, Techni Bharathi Pvt. Ltd., from the promoters and, combined with its previous purchase, holds 100% ownership in Techni Bharathi Pvt. Ltd. Therefore, the first step in the impairment testing for goodwill is the identification of reporting units and the allocation of goodwill to these reporting units.  Accordingly, TBL, which is one of the legal entities, is also considered a separate reporting unit and therefore the Company believes that the assessment of goodwill impairment at the subsidiary level, which is also a reporting unit, is appropriate.
 
 
14

 
The analysis of fair value is based on the estimate of the recoverable value of the underlying assets.  For long-lived assets such as land, the Company obtains appraisals from independent professional appraisers to determine the recoverable value.  For other assets such as receivables, the recoverable value is determined based on an assessment of the collectability and any potential losses due to default by the counter parties.  Unlike goodwill, long-lived assets are assessed for impairment only where there are any specific indicators for impairment.
 
w)  Reclassifications

None.
  
x)  Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements

Changes to U.S. GAAP are established by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) in the form of accounting standards updates ("ASUs”) to the FASB's Accounting Standards Codification.  The Company considers the applicability and impact of all ASUs.  Newly issued ASUs not listed below are expected to have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position and results of operations, because either the ASU is not applicable or the impact is expected to be immaterial.
 
Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted amendments from the FASB to Fair Value Accounting. The amendments clarify the application of the highest and best use, and valuation premise concepts, preclude the application of "blockage factors" in the valuation of all financial instruments and include criteria for applying the fair value measurement principles to portfolios of financial instruments. The amendments also prescribe additional disclosures for Level 3 fair value measurements and financial instruments not carried at fair value. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
In December 2011, the FASB issued new accounting disclosure requirements about the nature and exposure of offsetting arrangements related to financial and derivative instruments. The requirements are effective for fiscal years beginning after January 1, 2013, which for us is the fiscal ending March 2014. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In September 2011, the FASB issued an ASU that permits companies to assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more-likely-than-not that goodwill is impaired before performing the two-step goodwill impairment test required under current accounting standards. The guidance is effective for us beginning in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of this standard did not impact our financial results.
 
In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-05, which is now part of ASC 220: “Presentation of Comprehensive Income."  The new guidance will require companies to present the components of net income and other comprehensive income either as one continuous statement or as two consecutive statements.  It eliminates the option to present components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.  The standard does not change the items, which must be reported in other comprehensive income.  These provisions are to be applied retrospectively and were effective for us as of January 1, 2012.  Because this guidance impacts presentation only, it has no effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. 
 
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement: Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS”.  This update defines fair value, clarifies a framework to measure fair value and requires specific disclosures of fair value measurements.  The guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2012 and is required to be applied retrospectively.  The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
In April 2011, the FASB issued new accounting guidance that addresses effective control in repurchase agreements and eliminated the requirement for entities to consider whether the transferor/seller has the ability to repurchase the financial assets in a repurchase agreement. This new accounting guidance was effective, on a prospective basis, for new transactions or modifications to existing transactions, on January 1, 2012. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations.
 
NOTE 3 – OTHER CURRENT AND NON-CURRENT ASSETS

The $5,109,058 investments in former affiliates relates to Sricon. On June 21, 2012, IGC entered into a Memorandum of Settlement (the “MOS”) with Sricon and related parties. On October 2014 and pursuant to this MOS, the Company received approximately 5 acres of land in Nagpur, India, valuated at approximately $4.0 million in exchange for the 22% minority interest in Sricon IGC still held. The registration formalities for the land are expected to be completed in calendar year 2015.

Accounts receivable, net of allowances, amounted to $947,695 and $566,252, as of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, respectively.  The accounts receivable net of reserves for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 comes primarily from the construction activity and from electronic components trading. Presently, the accounts receivable from TBL amount to $473,061 and from IGC-INT amount to $403,613. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts based on present and prospective financial condition of the customer and their inherent credit risk. 

NOTE 5 – SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $2,413,665 for the nine months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $930,124 for the nine months ended December 31, 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses include compensation expenses to management, legal and professional expenses, investor relation expenses, travel expenses and acquisition costs. The increase/decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses in the nine months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to December 31, 2013 was due to acquisition of new business and issuance of shares to employees and investor relations firms.

Currently, the Company has two securities listed on the NYSE MKT: (1) Common Stock, $.0001 par value (trading symbol: IGC) (“Common Stock”) and (2) redeemable warrants to purchase Common Stock (trading symbol: IGC.WT). In February 2013, the Company voluntarily delisted its units from the NYSE MKT and requested its unit holders to contact IGC to get the existing units separated into Common Stock and Warrants. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-tenth of share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $50.00. The warrants were to expire on March 6, 2015, but on February 4, 2015, the Company extended the expiration date to March 6, 2017.

Effective March 31, 2014, the Company and Bricoleur Partners, L.P. agreed to amend the outstanding $1,800,000 promissory note (“2012 Security”), subject to the same terms of the 2012 Agreement and Amendments No. 1 and No. 2 thereto, to extend the maturity date of the 2012 Security from July 31, 2014 to July 31, 2016.  During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued 70,467 shares valued at $55,199 to this debt holder, which constituted an element of repayment of interest.
 
On August 22, 2013, IGC entered into an At the Market (“ATM”) Agency Agreement with Enclave Capital LLC. Under the ATM Agency Agreement, IGC may offer and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $4 million from time to time. Sales of the shares, if any, will be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the NYSE MKT at market prices, or as otherwise agreed with Enclave. The Company estimated that the net proceeds from the sale of the shares of common stock that were being offered were going to be approximately $3.6 million. On June 8, 2014, IGC entered into a new At the Market (the “June ATM”) Agency Agreement with Enclave Capital LLC. Under the June ATM Agency Agreement, IGC may offer and sell shares of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $1.5 million, for a total of $5.5 million of gross proceeds from the combined ATM agreements. IGC intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of securities offered for working capital needs, repayment of indebtedness and other general corporate purposes. During the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company issued no shares of Common Stock under this agreement.

On April 2, 2014, as reported in a current report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on April 3, 2014, we entered into a securities purchase agreement with certain institutional investors relating to the sale and issuance by our company to the investors of an aggregate of 750,000 shares of Common Stock, for a total purchase price of $506,250.  Midtown Partners & Co., LLC (“Midtown”) acted as our exclusive placement agent in this offering. IGC intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of securities offered for working capital needs, repayment of indebtedness and other general corporate purposes.

On May 15, 2014, the Company entered into a public and investor relations consulting services pursuant to which IGC issued a total of 50,000 restricted shares of common stock for a total of $43,500 as part of compensation.

Further, pursuant to IGC’s employee stock option plan, the Company has issued options to purchase 130,045 shares at an average exercise price of $5.60 per share, all of which are outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2014.

NOTE 15 – INCOME TAXES
 
The Company adopted ASC 740, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. In assessing the recoverability of its deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. The management considers historical and projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. 
 
 
18

 
The Company’s effective tax rate was 0% for the quarters ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. The Company has US deferred tax assets, which have been offset by valuation allowance because of historical and expected losses.  As the Company reverses its losses and becomes profitable, we will reassess the likelihood of recovering a portion or all of the deferred tax assets.  The remaining balance of deferred tax assets, which appear on the balance sheet, are from foreign based operations in which utilization is highly probable in offsetting future foreign income taxes.
 
The Company recorded an income tax gain/expense of $0 resulting from operational results of its foreign entities for the three-month period ended December 31, 2014 as compared to a tax expense of $1,885 for the three-month period ended December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there was no significant liability for income tax associated with unrecognized tax benefits.
 
NOTE 16 – SEGMENT INFORMATION
 
Accounting pronouncements establish standards for the manner in which public companies report information about operating segments in annual and interim financial statements. Operating segments are component of an enterprise that have distinct financial information available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision-maker ("CODM") to decide how to allocate resources and evaluate performance. The Company's CODM is considered to be the Company's Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"). The CEO reviews financial information presented on an entity level basis for purposes of making operating decisions and assessing financial performance. Therefore, the Company has determined that it operates in a single operating and reportable segment.

Other income for the period ended December 31, 2014 contains certain foreign exchange gains/losses arising on account of re-measurement of certain intercompany receivables between the U.S. holding company and the foreign subsidiaries. The total foreign exchange gain/(loss) for the three-month and nine-month periods ended December 31, 2014 amounted to $43,418 and $121,473 respectively.

NOTE 19 – IMPAIRMENT

No impairment was made on the Company’s investments during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2014.  

NOTE 20 – RECONCILIATION OF EPS
 
The historical weighted average per share for our shares through December 31, 2014, was applied using the treasury method of calculating the fully diluted shares.  The weighted average number of shares outstanding as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 used for the computation of basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is 12,462,413 and 7,734,444 respectively. Due to the loss incurred during the three-month period ended December 31, 2014, all of the potential equity shares are anti-dilutive and accordingly, the fully diluted EPS is equal to the basic EPS.
 
NOTE 21 – CERTAIN AGED RECEIVABLES

The receivable and other assets as of December 31, 2014 and March 31, 2014, include certain aged receivables in the amount of $0.5 million. These aged receivables were decreased from $2.03 million to $0.5 million in 2013 because we realized the arbitration award amounting to $1.5 million from the National Highway Authority of India in December 2012.  The Company received payment of the money owed on December 31, 2012 by a deposit on our bank account in Andhra Bank, MG Road, Ernakulam, Kerala. The receivables have been due for periods in excess of one year as of December 31, 2014. These receivables are included in accounts receivable and have been classified as current because the arbitration process has concluded and ruling was given in our favor. The Company continues to carry the full value of the receivables without interest and without any impairment, because the Company believes that there is minimal risk that this organization will become insolvent and unable to make payment.

NOTE 22 – ACQUISITIONS

On December 18, 2014, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Apogee the previous sole owner of the outstanding membership interests of Midtown Partners & Co., LLC, a Florida limited liability company registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Midtown”), and acquired, in an initial closing, 24.9% of the outstanding membership interests in Midtown.  In consideration of the initial membership interests, we have to issue to Apogee 1,200,000 shares of our common stock (subject to downward adjustment based on certain Q4 2014 financial statement matters). Following the receipt of all required SEC, FINRA and other regulatory approvals, we have agreed to acquire, in a final closing, the remaining 75.1% of the outstanding membership interests in Midtown in consideration of our issuance to Apogee of an additional 700,000 shares of our common stock (subject to downward adjustment based on certain financial statement matters prior to the final closing).

A smaller reporting company with significant equity investees must disclose sales, gross profit, net income (loss) from continuing operations, net income, and net income attributable to the investee. Significant equity investees constitute 20% or more of a registrant’s consolidated assets, equity or income from continuing operations attributable to the registrant. Since at the time of this filing, our investment in Midtown did not constitute 20% (comes to about 4%) of IGC’s consolidated assets, the summarized income information is not furnished.

On May 31, 2014, the Company acquired 51% of the issued and outstanding share capital of Golden Gate Electronics Limited, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Hong Kong, now known as IGC International. IGC-INT, headquartered in Hong Kong, operates an e-commerce platform for trading of commodities and electronic components.
 
The acquisition has been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, “Business Combinations”. The total purchase price has been allocated to IGC-INT’s net tangible assets based on their estimated fair values at the date of acquisition. The Purchase Price Allocation is based upon preliminary estimates and assumptions that may be subject to change during the measurement period (up to one year from the Acquisition Date). The Company generally does not expect the goodwill recognized to be deductible for income tax purposes. The results of operations of IGC-INT for the month of December 2014 have been included in the consolidated results as shown in the Statement of Operations included herein. The assets and liabilities of IGC-INT have been recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2014.
 
Purchase price of the acquisition consisted of up to 1,209,765 shares of our common stock, valued at approximately $1,052,496 on the closing date of the acquisition and the same will be discharged as follows:

IGC-INT is subject to legal and regulatory requirements, including but not limited to those related to taxation matters, in the jurisdiction in which it operates. The Company has conducted a preliminary assessment of liabilities arising out of these matters and has recognized provisional amounts in its initial accounting for the Acquisition for all identified liabilities in accordance with the requirements of ASC Topic 805. However, the Company is continuing its review of these matters during the measurement period, and if new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed at the Acquisition date identifies adjustments to the liabilities initially recognized, as well as any additional liabilities that existed at the Acquisition date, the acquisition accounting will be revised to reflect the resulting adjustments to the provisional amounts initially recognized.

The following unaudited pro-forma results of the operations of the Company for the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 assume that the IGC-INT acquisition occurred during the beginning of the comparable period.

Company Overview
 
India Globalization Capital, Inc. (“IGC”) is positioning itself to be a dominant player in the emerging legal cannabis industry. This cannabis industry includes marijuana and hemp with each having its own legal nuances. We have a three pronged strategy that is compliant with federal and state laws that includes: i) the construction of state-of-the-art facilities that can eventually be used for growing cannabis, ii) the pending acquisition of a New York based crowd-funding backed broker-dealer, Midtown Partners LLC, that will hold conferences, write research reports and provide legal cannabis investment banking services, and iii) the introduction of pharmaceutical and nutraceutical products that use cannabinoid extracts. In India, we trade iron ore and lease construction equipment.  In Hong Kong, through a subsidiary, we trade commodities and electronic components.

Our short-term plans are to drive cash flow by (a) expanding the equipment rental business to several states in India, (b) expanding the trading business and (c) deploying indoor farming facilities.  Our medium-term plans are to acquire companies or management that can help us expand and diversify our assets to some of the areas that we have identified including legal cannabis.  Our long-term plans are to increase our commitment to our existing leasing business in India, and increase our commitment to new industries such as the legal cannabis, indoor farming, and eventually decrease our exposure to the beneficiation of iron ore in China.  Our strategy for the legal cannabis industry includes positioning the company in areas where we have a strategic advantage and can leverage our international presence.  These strategies include creating a portfolio of marijuana and hemp based patents, partnering to create and file for FDA approval of cannabinoid-based drugs for compassionate use, and creating an R&D lab in a country where we can legally grow the plants.

As of this filing, we have made no final determination on this matter, but we are attempting to negotiate with the previous owners of ironman to sell the assets back to them in exchange for those IGC shares given as consideration for the assets.

Results of Operations
 
Three Months ended December 31, 2014 Compared to Three Months ended December 31, 2013
 
Revenue - Total revenue was $2,542,192 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $17,529 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The revenue reported for both quarters was primarily from trading commodities and electronics and from the India-based heavy equipment leasing business. The increase in revenue relates to an increase in the volume of goods bought and sold. The pricing for iron ore was at record lows and, therefore, the Company moved its resources away from iron ore and into trading other commodities and electronics. The Company expects revenue to continue to grow as we expand trading, vertical farming and the leasing business.
 
Cost of Revenue (excluding depreciation) – Cost of revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was $2,343,062 as compared to $7,789 for the three months ended December 31, 2013.  The cost of revenue was primarily related to the purchase of raw materials, transportation, storage, local fees, handling, driver and maintenance of equipment and other logistic costs. The cost of revenue as a percentage of revenue was 92% and 44% for the December 2014 and 2013 quarterly periods, respectively. The increase in the cost of revenue is a reflection of decreasing prices of commodities and increased expenses related to ramping up the businesses.

Selling, General and Administrative - These consist primarily of employee related expenses, professional fees, other corporate expenses, allocated overhead and provisions and write offs relating to doubtful and bad debts and advances. SG&A expenses were $544,551 for the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $156,048 for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The remaining increases reflect our new measures for reaching profitability.
 
Depreciation – The depreciation expense was approximately $153,725 in the three months ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $147,708 in the three months ended December 31, 2013.
