NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS



Except for statements of historical fact, certain information contained herein constitutes forward-looking statements, within Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act).  In some cases, you can identify the forward-looking statements by Imagis Technologies Inc.s (Imagis or the Company) use of the words such as may, will, should, could, expect, plan, estimate, predict, potential, continue, believe, anticipate, intend, expect, or the negative or other variations of these words, or other comparable words or phrases.  Forward-looking statements in this report include, but are not limited to, the Companys expectation that revenues will increase during 2005 when compared to those of 2004 and that such revenues will continue to increase and newly developed products and solutions continue to gain increasing customer acceptance; the Companys ability to fund its operations in the future; the Companys expectations regarding its dispute with OSI Systems Inc. (OSI) and new contracts to be entered into the near future; the Companys future operating expense levels; the Companys ability to achieve break-even operations on an EBITDA-basis during the third and fourth quarters of 2005.



Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results or achievements of the Company to be materially different from any future results or achievements of the Company expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.  Such factors include, but are not limited to the following: the Companys limited operating history; the Companys need for additional financing; the Companys history of losses; the Companys dependence on a small number of customers; risks involving new product development; competition; the Companys dependence on key personnel; risks involving lengthy sales cycles; dependence on marketing relationships; the Companys ability to protect its intellectual property rights; risks associated with exchange rate fluctuations; risks of software defects; risks associated with product liability; risks associated with the Imagis UK partnership, the Companys dispute with OSI risks associated with the strategic alliance with Sanyo Semiconductor Company (Sanyo) and Intacta Technologies Inc. (Intacta) related to Zixsys, Inc. (Zixsys); the potential additional disclosure requirements for trades involving the issued common shares; the difficulty of enforcing civil liabilities against the Company or its directors or officers under United States federal securities laws; the volatility of the Companys share price; risks associated with certain shareholders exercising control over certain matters; and the other risks and uncertainties described in Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report.



Although the Company believes that expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance, achievements or other future events.  Moreover, neither the Company nor anyone else assumes responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of these forward-looking statements.

See accompanying notes to financial statements.

1.

Operations:

Imagis Technologies Inc. (the Company) was incorporated under the Company Act (British Columbia) on March 23, 1998. The Company operates in a single segment, being the development and sale of software applications and solutions.

These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which includes the assumption that the Company will be able to realize its assets and settle its liabilities in the normal course of business.  At March 31, 2005, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $1,454,190 and a deficiency in operating cash flow of $790,125. In addition, the Company has incurred significant operating losses and net utilization of cash in operations in all prior periods. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, the Company has a working capital deficiency of $916,581. Accordingly, the Company will require continued financial support from its shareholders and creditors until it is able to generate sufficient cash flow from operations on a sustained basis. Failure to obtain ongoing support of its shareholders and creditors may make the going concern basis of accounting inappropriate, in which case the Companys assets and liabilities would need to be recognized at their liquidation values. These financial statements do not include any adjustment due to this going concern uncertainty.



2.

Significant accounting policies:

The Company prepares its financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada and, except as set out in Note 15, also complies, in all material respects, with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The financial statements reflect the following significant accounting policies:

(a)

Basis of consolidation:



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Briyante Software Corp. (Briyante), since the date of its acquisition on November 25, 2003.  All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.



(b)

Cash equivalents:



The Company considers all highly liquid investments with a term to maturity of three-months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Investments having a term in excess of three-months but less than one year are classified as short-term investments.



(c)

Equipment:

Equipment is recorded at cost and is amortized over its estimated useful life on a straight-line basis at the following annual rates:



Asset

Rate



Computer hardware

30%

Furniture and fixtures

20%

Software

100%

Telephone equipment

20%

Tradeshow equipment

20%





Leasehold improvements are amortized straight-line over the lesser of their lease term and estimated useful life.

Significant accounting policies contd:



(d)

Intangible assets:



Intangible assets acquired either individually or with a group of other assets are initially recognized and measured at cost.  The cost of a group of intangible assets acquired in a transaction, including those acquired in a business combination that meet the specified criteria for recognition apart from goodwill, is allocated to the individual assets acquired based on their relative fair values.  The cost of internally developed intangible assets includes direct development costs and overhead directly attributable to development activity.  The cost incurred to enhance the service potential of an intangible asset is capitalized as betterment.  Costs incurred in the maintenance of the service potential of an intangible asset are expensed as incurred.



Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives.  The assets are amortized on a straight-line basis at the following annual rates, which are reviewed annually:



Asset

Term



Intellectual property

3 years

Patents

3 years

License

3 years





Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized and are tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired.  The impairment test compares the carrying amount of the intangible asset with its fair value, and an impairment loss is recognized in income for the excess, if any.



(e)

Revenue recognition:



(i)

Software sales revenue:

The Company recognizes revenue consistent with Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. In accordance with this Statement, revenue is recognized, except as noted below, when all of the following criteria are met; persuasive evidence of a contractual arrangement exists, title has passed, delivery and customer acceptance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.  Cash received in advance of meeting the revenue recognition criteria is recorded as deferred revenue.

When a software product requires significant production, modification or customization, the Company generally accounts for the arrangement using the percentage-of-completion method of contract accounting. Progress to completion is measured by the proportion that activities completed are to the activities required under each arrangement. When the current estimate on a contract indicates a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made. In circumstances where amounts recognized as revenue under such arrangements exceeds the amount invoiced, the difference is recorded as accrued revenue receivable.

9

---

2.

Significant accounting policies contd:

When software is sold under contractual arrangements that include post contract customer support (PCS), the elements are accounted for separately if vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements. VSOE is identified by reference to renewal arrangements for similar levels of support covering comparable periods. If such evidence does not exist, revenue on the completed arrangement is deferred until the earlier of (a) VSOE being established or (b) all of the undelivered elements are delivered or performed, with the following exceptions: if the only undelivered element is PCS, the entire fee is recognized ratably over the PCS period, and if the only undelivered element is service, the entire fee is recognized as the services are performed.

The Company provides for estimated returns and warranty costs, which to date have been nominal, on recognition of revenue.

(ii)

Support and services revenue:

Up front payments for contract support and services revenue is deferred and is amortized to revenue over the period that the support and services are provided.

(f)

Use of estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported or disclosed in the financial statements.  Actual amounts may differ from these estimates.  Areas of significant estimate include but are not limited to valuation of accounts receivable; amortization periods of equipment, intellectual property and other assets; valuation of intellectual property; fair value inputs for calculation of stock-based compensation; and the valuation allowance of future income tax assets.

(g)

Foreign currency:

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into Canadian dollars at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated using rates in effect at the time of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses are included in expenses and are insignificant for all periods presented.

(h)

Income taxes:

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, future tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Future tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on future tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the date of substantive enactment. To the extent that it is not considered to be more likely than not that a deferred tax asset will be realized, a valuation allowance is provided.



(i)

Stock-based compensation:



The Company has a stock-based compensation plan, which is described in note 8.  Subsequent to January 1, 2003, the Company accounts for all stock-based payments to employees and non-employees using the fair value based method.  Under the fair value based method, stock-based payments are measured at the fair value of the equity instruments issued.



The fair value of stock-based payments to non-employees is periodically re-measured until counterparty performance is compete, and any change therein is recognized over the period and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash instead of paying with or using equity instruments.  The cost of stock-based payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date.

10

2.

Significant accounting policies contd:



Under the fair value based method, compensation cost attributable to employee awards is measured at fair value at the grant date and recognized over the vesting period.  Compensation cost attributable to awards to employees that call for settlement in cash or other assets is measured at intrinsic value and recognized over the vesting period.  Changes in intrinsic value between the grant date and the measurement date result in a change in the measure of compensation cost.  For awards that vest at the end of the vesting period, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis; for awards that vest on a graded basis, compensation cost is recognized on a pro-rata basis over the vesting period.



Prior to January 1, 2003, the Company followed the settlement method of accounting for employee stock options.  The fair value method was used for non-employee grants made in the year ended December 31, 2002 and the settlement method for grants made prior to that date. Had compensation expense associated with employee stock options awarded prior to January 1, 2003 been determined in accordance with the fair value method, the Companys net loss and net loss per share for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, would have been adjusted to the pro forma amounts indicated below:



Three-months ended March 31,20052004Net loss   as reported$(1,454,190)(1,581,801)Net loss   pro forma(1,454,190)(2,549,167)Net loss per share   as reported$(0.06)(0.14)Net loss per share  pro forma(0.06)(0.23)




The pro forma amounts exclude the effect of stock options granted prior to January 1, 2002. The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following average inputs: volatility  114%, risk free interest rate  5%, option term  5 years, and dividend yield  nil.

(j)

Loss per share:

Loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the reporting period.  This average includes common shares issued in a reporting period from their date of issuance.  Diluted per share amounts are calculated by the treasury stock method whereby the assumed proceeds of dilutive exercisable instruments are applied to repurchase common shares at the average market price for the period.  The resulting net issuance is included in the weighted average number for purposes of the diluted per share calculation.  As all outstanding shares and warrants are anti-dilutive, there is no difference between basic and diluted loss per share.



(k)

Comparative figures:



Certain comparative figures have been reclassified to conform to the presentation adopted in the current quarter.

3.

Change in accounting for stock-based compensation:

Prior to January 1, 2003, the Company applied the fair value based method of accounting prescribed by CICA Handbook Section 3870, Stock-based Compensation and Other Stock-based Payments, only to non-employee awards made on or after January 1, 2002 and to employee stock appreciation rights, and applied the settlement method of accounting to employee stock options.  Under the settlement method, any consideration paid by employees on the exercise of stock options or purchase of stock is credited to share capital and no compensation expense was recognized.

The CICA Accounting Standards Board amended CICA Handbook Section 3870  Stock-based Compensation and Other Stock-based Payments  to require entities to account for employee stock options using the fair value based method, beginning January 1, 2004, with early adoption encouraged.  The Company has elected to apply fair value accounting for all employee stock options granted on or after January 1, 2003 and, in accordance with one of the transitional options permitted under amended Section 3870, has accounted for this change prospectively.

Investment



On July 31, 2004 the Company entered into an agreement with a United Kingdom (UK) company to form a jointly owned subsidiary company Imagis Technologies UK Limited (Imagis UK). Imagis UK is the exclusive distributor of Imagis software products in the UK and a non-exclusive distributor on a world-wide basis. The Company owns a 25% interest in Imagis UK in consideration of the grant of UK exclusivity, and the UK company has committed to provide £500,000 (approximately $1.25 million) over the next two years to support the initial start-up costs of Imagis UK in consideration for a 75% ownership interest in Imagis UK. The Companys initial investment in Imagis UK has been recorded at a nominal amount of $1 and the Companys share of Imagis UKs income will be accounted for on an equity accounted basis. Imagis UKs operations are in the start-up phase and there has been no significant gain or loss to date.

Cash proceeds of $899,075 less commissions of $39,757 were received for the sale of 5,212,029 Special Warrants and 4,584,058 Special Warrants were issued in settlement of $790,750 in debt.  Each Special Warrant is exercisable, for no additional consideration, into units consisting of 0.2222 common shares and 0.2222 share purchase warrants, with the exception of 1,002,899 Special Warrants issued to insiders of the Company.  The units issued to insiders of the Company are exercisable into 0.2222 common shares with no share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant entitles the holder for two years from the date of issue of the Special Warrants to acquire one additional common share at an exercise price of $1.04 per share in the first year and $1.14 per share in the second year.  The Special Warrants are convertible at the holders option at any time for an eighteen month period and will convert automatically at the end of the eighteen months.  The Company will not be required to meet any conditions prior to conversion.  Finders fees of $39,758 cash and 38,641 in brokers warrants exercisable at $1.04 per share were paid.  The brokers warrants are exercisable until October 30, 2004 and have been recorded at the fair value as at the date of issue of $7,327 as a reduction in the proceeds of the Special Warrants and an increase in contributed surplus.  As at March 31, 2005, 1,169,741 units have been issued on conversion of the Special Warrants which resulted in the issuance of 1,169,741 common shares and 1,169,741 share purchase warrants.

Options:



The Company has a stock option plan that was approved at the Companys annual general meeting of shareholders on June 18, 2004.  Under the terms of the plan the Company may reserve up to 3,347,690 common shares for issuance under the plan.  The Company has granted stock options to certain employees, directors, advisors, and consultants.  These options are granted for services provided to the Company.  All options granted prior to November 25, 2003, expire five years from the date of grant with the exception of 22,222 options issued during 2002 to a consultant that expire two years from the date of grant.  All options granted subsequent to November 25, 2003, expire 3 years from the date of the grant.  All options vest one-third on the date of the grant, one-third on the first anniversary of the date of the grant and one-third on the second anniversary of the date of the grant.  On November 25, 2003, all stock options along with the Companys outstanding shares were consolidated on a 1 new option for 4.5 old basis. During the period ended December 31, 2004 all options outstanding as at December 31, 2003 were repriced to $0.78. For options that were granted prior to the adoption of the fair value based method, the fair value of the award was remeasured at the date of modification, and the full amount of the fair value was recorded as the compensation cost to the extent that vesting has occurred at December 31, 2004.



For options issued in 2003 and previously accounted for under the fair value method, modification accounting is applied.  Under modification accounting the Company recorded additional expense equal to the difference between the fair value of the original award on the date of the reprising, and the fair value of the modified award also on the date of the reprising.



A summary of the status of the Companys stock options at March 31, 2005, and December 31, 2004 (giving retroactive effect to the share consolidation), and changes during the periods ended on those dates are presented below:

The weighted average fair value of employee stock options granted during the period ended March 31, 2005 was $0.37 (2004: $0.62) per share purchase option. The weighted average fair value of employee stock options repriced during the period ended March 31, 2005 was $Nil (2004: $0.52) per share purchase option as at the date of the reprice. The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following average inputs:  volatility - 56%; risk free interest rate - 5%; option term - 3 years; and dividend yield - nil.  The total compensation expense of $102,592 has been allocated to the expense account associated with each individual employee expense and credited to contributed surplus.

On July 8, 2002, the Company entered into the following agreements with OSI:

i.

Product Development and Marketing Agreement. Under this agreement, the Company formed a strategic alliance with OSI to develop mutually agreed integrated airport and transportation security products The Company agreed to commit a minimum of US$250,000 to develop these products and operate this group.

ii.

Software Developer Services Agreement. Under this agreement, the Company agreed to engage the services of software engineers and equipment in OSIs software development facility in Hyderabad, India. The Company agreed to pay to OSI a minimum of US$250,000 during the term of the agreement, which expires on June 30, 2003, provided that if the aggregate amount paid to OSI on such date was less than US$250,000, the agreement can be extended for six months.

iii.

Joint Venture Letter of Intent. Under this letter of intent, upon OSIs establishment of a Brazilian entity to oversee marketing, sales, service and assembly and marketing of OSIs products, in Brazil and the establishment of an office in Brazil, Imagis would invest US$250,000 for a 20% equity ownership in that entity.

On March 20, 2003 the above agreements were amended as follows:

i.

the strategic alliance agreement to develop and market integrated airport and security products with OSI was extended to July 8, 2004. The expenditure commitment was reduced to a minimum of US$125,000 on product development and the operation of an Airport Security Group to market the products. As at December 31, 2004, the Company incurred US$48,350 in expenditures on product development.

ii.

the agreement to engage OSI to provide software development services was extended to December 31, 2004. The expenditure commitment has been reduced to a minimum of US$125,000, based on hourly rates charged at 85% of fair market value.

iii.

The Company agreed to pay OSI a management fee of US$250,000 on or before March 20, 2004.



On January 27, 2005 the Company received a Notice of Demand from OSI for US$500,000 alleging that the Company was in default under the terms of these agreements. The Company believes that OSI acted in bad faith and, as a result, the Company was unable to meet the terms of these agreements. The parties have agreed to refer this matter to the American Arbitration Association for resolution. While the Company believes that it has not defaulted under the terms of these agreements, there can be no assurance that this dispute will be resolved in the Companys favour and that the Company will not be required to pay the full or partial amount of such demand to OSI upon resolution of this dispute.

Financial instruments and risk management:

(a)

Fair values:



The fair value of the Companys financial instruments, represented by cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximates their carrying values due to their ability to be promptly liquidated or their immediate or short term to maturity.  Based on current interest rates relative to those implicit in the leases, the fair value of capital lease obligations is estimated to not be materially different from their carrying values.

(b)

Credit risk:



The Company is exposed to credit risk only with respect to uncertainty as to timing and amount of collectibility of accounts receivable.  The Companys maximum credit risk is the carrying value of accounts receivable.

(c)

Foreign currency risk:



Foreign currency risk is the risk to the Companys earnings that arises from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, and the degree of volatility of these rates.  Management has not entered into any foreign exchange contracts to mitigate this risk.

13.

Segmented information:



The Company operates in a single segment, the development and sale of software.  Management of the Company makes decisions about allocating resources based on this one operating segment.

United States generally accepted accounting principles:

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Canada (Canadian GAAP) which differ in certain respects with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP).  Material issues that could give rise to measurement differences to these consolidated financial statements are as follows:



(a)

Stock-based compensation:



As described in note 8, the Company has granted stock options to certain employees, directors, advisors, and consultants.  These options are granted for services provided to the Company.  For options issued subsequent to December 31, 2001, the Company amortizes the expense of all options issued to non-employees based on the Black-Scholes model under Canadian GAAP.  For U.S. GAAP purposes, an enterprise recognizes or, at its option, discloses the impact of the fair value of stock options and other forms of stock-based compensation in the determination of income.  The Company has elected under U.S. GAAP to continue to measure compensation cost for stock options granted to employees prior to January 1, 2003 by the intrinsic value method.  Options granted to non employees prior to January 1, 2002, are required to be measured and recognized at their fair value as the services are provided and the options are earned.  In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2001 and 2002, the Company repriced certain options and consequently, in accordance with the intrinsic value method under U.S. GAAP, such options are accounted for as variable options and net increases in the underlying common shares market price since the repricing date are recognized as compensation cost until the options are exercised, expire or forfeited.



(b)

Beneficial conversion option:



During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company issued convertible debentures with detachable warrants attached.  For Canadian GAAP purposes, the issuance was considered to be of a compound debt and equity instrument and the proceeds were allocated between the two elements based on their relative fair values.  For U.S. GAAP purposes, the consideration received was allocated between the debt and warrants resulting in a beneficial conversion option as the fair value of the shares issuable on conversion of the debt is in excess of the value at which such shares would be issuable based on the reduced carrying value of the debt element.  This beneficial conversion option was amortized over the period to the first conversion date.



(c)

Warrant issuance for services:

During the year ended December 31, 2000, the Company issued 200,000 warrants having an exercise price of $3.50 each for services rendered.  In accordance with the Companys accounting policies, for Canadian GAAP purposes no value has been assigned to these warrant issuances.  For U.S. GAAP purposes, the fair value of these warrants would be determined based on an option pricing model and recognized as the services are provided.

Item 2.  Managements Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation



About Imagis

Imagis develops and markets software that simplifies, accelerates, and economizes the process of connecting existing, disparate databases, enhanced as appropriate with biometric facial recognition technology. The combination of these technologies enables information owners to share data securely with external stakeholders and software systems using any combination of text or imagery. This includes searching disconnected data repositories for information about an individual using only a facial image.This allows organizations to quickly create regional information sharing networks using any combination of text or imagery.



Using industry standard Web services and XML, Imagis delivers a secure and economical approach to true, real-time application interoperability. Production deployments of the Companys core integration technology  BIE  have demonstrated remarkable reductions in the time and risk associated with implementing and supporting integrated access to physically and technologically disparate computers. The Company believes that the broad ranging applicability of BIE into a variety of vertical markets such as health care, financial services, government services and telecommunications has been clearly demonstrated by recent, successful deployments in the United States.



Overview

The Companys Business

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues, and it expects to derive a substantial portion of its revenues in the near future, from sales of its software to a limited number of customers. Additional revenues are achieved through the implementation and customization of this software as well as from the support, training, and ongoing maintenance that results from each software sale. The Companys success will depend significantly upon the timing and size of future purchase orders from its largest customers as well as from the ability to maintain relationships with its existing installed customer base

Typically, the Company enters into a fixed price contract with a customer for the licensing of selected software products and the provision of specific services.  The Company generally recognizes total revenue for software and services associated with a contract using percentage of completion method based on the total costs incurred over the total estimated costs to complete the contract.

The Companys revenue is dependent, in large part, on contracts from a limited number of customers.  As a result, any substantial delay in the Companys completion of a contract, the inability of the Company to obtain new contracts or the cancellation of an existing contract by a customer could have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations.  The loss of certain contracts could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.  As a result of these and other factors, the Companys results of operations have fluctuated in the past and may continue to fluctuate from period-to-period.

Recent world events and concerns regarding security have increased awareness of and interest in products that have law enforcement or other security applications, including the products and services offered by Imagis.  There can be no assurance, however, that such trends will continue or will result in increased sales of the Companys products and services.

Critical Accounting Polices

Critical accounting policies are those that management believes are both most important to the portrayal of the Companys financial conditions and results, and that require difficult, subjective, or complex judgements, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that involve uncertainty.

Imagis believes the critical accounting policies it uses in preparation of its financial statements are as follows:





22

---

Revenue recognition

(i)

Software sales revenue:

The Company recognizes revenue consistent with Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. In accordance with this Statement, revenue is recognized, except as noted below, when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of a contractual arrangement exists, title has passed, delivery and customer acceptance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.  Funds received in advance of meeting the revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue.

When a software product requires significant production, modification or customization, the Company generally accounts for the arrangement using the percentage-of-completion method of contract accounting. Progress to completion is measured by the proportion that activities completed are to the activities required under each arrangement. When the current estimate on a contract indicates a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made.

When software is sold under contractual arrangements that include post-contract customer support (PCS), the elements are accounted for separately if vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements. VSOE is identified by reference to renewal arrangements for similar levels of support covering comparable periods. If such evidence does not exist, revenue on the completed arrangement is deferred until the earlier of (a) VSOE being established or (b) all of the undelivered elements are delivered or performed, with the following exceptions: if the only undelivered element is PCS, the entire fee is recognized ratably over the PCS period, and if the only undelivered element is service, the entire fee is recognized as the services are performed.

The Company provides for estimated returns and warranty costs, which to date have been nominal, on recognition of revenue.

(ii)

Support and services revenue:

Contract support and services revenue is deferred and is amortized to revenue ratably over the period that the support and services are provided.

Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets acquired either individually or with a group of other assets are initially recognized and measured at cost. The cost of a group of intangible assets acquired in a transaction, including those acquired in a business combination that meet the specified criteria for recognition apart from goodwill, is allocated to the individual assets acquired based on their relative fair values. The cost of internally developed intangible assets includes direct development costs and overhead directly attributable to development activity. The cost incurred to enhance the service potential of an intangible asset is capitalized as betterment. Costs incurred in the maintenance of the service potential of an intangible asset are expensed as incurred.



Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives. The assets are amortized on a straight-line basis at the following annual rates, which are reviewed annually:



Asset

Rate

Intellectual property

33.3%

Patents

33.3%

License

33.3%



Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized and are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test compares the carrying amount of the intangible asset with its fair value, and an impairment loss is recognized in income for the excess, if any.



23

---

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported or disclosed in the financial statements. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates. Areas for significant estimate include but are not limited to valuation of accounts receivable; amortization periods for equipment, intellectual property and other assets; valuation of intellectual property; fair value inputs for calculation of stock-based compensation; and the valuation allowance of future income tax assets.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for all stock-based payments to employees and non-employees using the fair value based method.



Under the fair value based method, stock-based payments are measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of stock-based payments to non-employees is periodically re-measured until counterparty performance is compete, and any change therein is recognized over the period and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash instead of paying with or using equity instruments. The cost of stock-based payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date.



Under the fair value based method, compensation cost attributable to employee awards is measured at fair value at the grant date and recognized over the vesting period. Compensation cost attributable to awards to employees that call for settlement in cash or other assets is measured at intrinsic value and recognized over the vesting period. Changes in intrinsic value between the grant date and the measurement date result in a change in the measure of compensation cost. For awards that vest at the end of the vesting period, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis; for awards that vest on a graded basis, compensation cost is recognized on a pro-rata basis over the vesting period.

Imagis total revenues increased 13% to $324,628 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 over the prior years revenue of $286,055. Revenues from the Companys software products increased 21% to $231,358 this year compared to $190,861 for 2004.



As at May 7, 2005, Imagis has received orders totalling $2,300,000 that have not been recorded in revenue as at March 31, 2005. As a result, Imagis expects that revenues will increase in subsequent quarters of 2005 when compared to those of 2004 and will continue to increase as the Companys current and newly developed products and solutions continue to gain increasing customer acceptance. There can be no assurance however that such revenue will materialize or if such revenue does materialize that it will be significant.



Support and services revenues remained static at $92,304 for the period ended March 31, 2005 compared to $93,088 in 2004. Other revenues were primarily earned through interest revenue and fluctuate with the Companys cash balances.

Operating Costs

Operating expenses totalled $1,778,818 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, which is 5% lower than the 2004 operating expenses of $1,867,856. The 2004 expenses include stock-based compensation of $102,592 due to Imagis employee stock option plan and $382,009 in amortization, which includes $322,713 in amortization costs for the intellectual property acquired in the Briyante acquisition. Excluding these non-cash charges the 2005 operating expenses total $1,294,217. The 2004 expenses include stock-based compensation of $714,930 and amortization of $387,472. Excluding these non-cash charges the operating expenses for 2004 were $765,454. The increase of $528,763 between 2005 and 2004 represents a 69% increase in operating expenses over the prior year. The increased costs over the prior period are due to hiring additional staff in all departments to increase sales, continue product development, and meet the increased demand for Imagis products and services.  Any further increases will only occur if required in order to meet increasing sales demand.

Administration



Administrative costs for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $446,331, which is 52% less than for 2004 of $934,484. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $68,382 in 2005 and $714,930 in 2004. Excluding these charges, the administrative costs were $377,949 in 2004 versus $219,554 in 2004, which represents a 72% increase. This increase was due to increased staffing, legal and filing costs.  Administrative costs include staff salaries and related benefits and travel, stock-based compensation, consulting and professional fees, facility and support costs, shareholder, regulatory, investor relations and general office operating costs.



Interest and Amortization



The interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 of $4,562, which is 60% less than for 2004 of $11,382, is primarily due to interest charged on various supplier accounts. The amortization expense of $382,009 for 2005 is consistent with 2004 of $387,472 and is primarily due to amortization of the acquisition of the intellectual property of Briyante.



Sales and Marketing



Sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $429,676 which is 115% greater than in 2004 of $199,842. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $18,373 in 2005. Excluding this charge, the sales and marketing costs were $411,303 in 2005, which represents a 106% increase over 2004. Imagis significantly increased the size of its sales and marketing team in the latter half of 2004. There was also a significant increase in travel expenses associated with the increased staffing levels.



Technology Development



The technology development expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $375,381 which is 43% greater then the 2004 cost of $262,684. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $11,128 in 2005. Excluding this charge, the technology development costs were $364,253 in 2005, which represents a 39% increase over 2004. This increase was primarily due to hiring additional staff and the associated costs required to maintain our enhancement of existing products and new product development. Management expects that the increased revenues achieved as a result of the sale of products will more than offset the increased costs. Management believes that continuing to invest in technology advancements is crucial to the future success of Imagis.



Technical Services



Costs for the technical services group for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $140,859, which is 96% greater than the comparable 2004 costs of $71,992. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $4,709 in 2005. Excluding this charge, the technology development costs were $136,150 in 2005, which represents an 89% increase over 2004. The increase is due to the hiring of staff and associated costs to meet the installation and support requirements for the sales orders described above.



The technical services group generally assists the Companys strategic partners in their installation of Imagis products and also provides clients with any technical support they may require under annual support contracts, and includes primarily costs for salaries, facilities and travel.



Net Loss for the Period



Overall, the Company incurred a net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 of $1,454,190 or $0.06 per share, which is 8% lower than the net loss of $1,581,801 or $0.14 per share. The Company has received significant sales orders during the final quarter of 2004 and the first quarter of 2005; however, installation did not commence until 2005 and the revenue will not be recognised until the second and third quarter of 2005.



The Company's current net loss on a monthly basis is $485,000.  Management believes that providing EBITDA information may be helpful to investors with respect to the Company's results of operations, because it excludes certain non-cash amortization amounts that the Company has incurred primarily as a result of its acquisition of certain intellectual property of Briyante that prevents an accurate period-to-period comparison.  When excluding such amortization expenses, the Company's current rate of loss on an EBITDA basis is $357,000 per month.

In the Company's most recent Form 10-KSB, management stated that it believed that the Company would be able to achieve break-even operations on an EBITDA basis during the second and third quarters of 2005.  Due to the timing

25

---

of the completion of existing contracts and its effect upon the recognition of revenue, management is revising this estimate.  After excluding the Company's quarterly amortization expenses of $382,000 primarily associated with the Briyante acquisition, management believes that it will achieve break-even operations on an EBITDA basis during the third and fourth quarters of 2005.



Summary of Quarterly Results

The Companys changes in its net losses per quarter fluctuate according to the volume of sales. As the Company currently has a small number of customers generating the majority of its revenues, there is no consistency from one quarter to the next and past quarterly performance is not considered to be indicative of future results. The Company had significantly reduced its operating expenses during the period from Q3 2002 through Q3 2003, which also has a large impact on the comparative loss figures. In the latter part of 2004 and Q1 2005 the Company has hired additional staff to meet the demands of the sales orders described above, causing a significant increase in expense levels. The Company is not aware of any significant seasonality affecting its sales.



Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Companys cash on hand at the beginning of the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 aggregated $123,148. During the period, the Company received additional net funds of $927,454 from a private placement that closed in January, less $140,000 received prior to January 1, 2005.



The Company used these funds primarily to finance its operating loss for the period. The impact on cash of the loss of $1,454,190, after adjustment for non-cash items and changes to other working capital accounts in the period, resulted in a negative cash flow from operations of $790,125. The Company also repaid capital leases of $10,416 and purchased capital assets of $23,589, overall the Companys cash position decreased by $36,676 to $68,760 at March 31, 2005.



In January 2005, the Company completed a private placement consisting of 2,857,785 units at $0.35 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant.  Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional common share at an exercise price of $0.45 until January 11, 2006 or at $0.55 from January 12, 2006 until January 11, 2007. The common shares and warrants were subject to a four month hold period that expired on May 10, 2005. Finders fees of $72,771 in cash were paid on a portion of the private placement conducted outside the United States. The total net proceeds to Imagis were $927,454.



The Company experienced unexpected delays in concluding certain contract negotiations; consequently completion of the associated software installations were delayed. As a result of this delayed collection of revenues, management decided to seek additional financing in order to maintain its current level of operations.



On April 4, 2005, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to complete a proposed combination brokered and non-brokered private placement (the Offering) of up to $1,700,000 at $0.40 per unit. Each unit will consist of one common share and one half of one common share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant will entitle the holder for one year from the date of issuance of the units to acquire one additional common share at an exercise price of $0.55. The private placement remains subject to regulatory approval.  There can be no assurance that regulatory approval will be granted or that any funds will be raised in the proposed offering.



The consideration paid to the agent for the proposed brokered portion of the offering will be:

a)

a cash commission of 7.5% of the gross proceeds of the offering;

b)

brokers warrants entitling the holder to purchase up to such number of common shares as is equal to 10% of the total number of units sold through such offering, with each warrant exercisable for a period of one year for one common share at the price of the units;

c)

a corporate finance fee of 60,000 units, subject to a one year hold period; and

d)

a work fee of $5,000 cash plus reasonable expenses.

During the final quarter of 2004, the Company was awarded a contract with PRIME Corp. of British Columbia, Canada to deploy the Imagis flagship InForce Arrest and Booking (InForce AB) software as an integrated component of the province-wide Police Records Information Management Environment (PRIME-BC). This contract will result in revenues to the Company in excess of $800,000; the Company has received $389,000 as at March 31, 2005 which is recorded in Deferred Revenue, revenues from this contract will be recorded in the second and third quarters of 2005.



In April 2005, the Company signed a US$780,500 contract with King County of Washington to supply a major expansion of the highly successful RAIN (Regional Automated Information Network) project for the Countys law enforcement agencies. This project will expand RAINs capabilities and benefits to over 3000 officers across 23 independent police jurisdictions responsible for protecting over 1.7 million citizens. The revenues from this contract will be recognized during the second and third quarters of 2005.



The Company also has received other orders with certain agencies in the United States that total an additional approximately $500,000, the amounts due under these contracts are expected to be received by the Company in the second and third quarters of 2005.



If the Company raises the full amount of the proposed offering, the Company believes it will have cash sufficient to fund its operations through September 30, 2005.  Further, the Company believes the orders described above if completed will generate cash sufficient in combination with the full amount of the gross proceeds of the proposed offering to fund its operations through December 31, 2005.  If certain of the contracts are not completed, the proposed offering is not fully subscribed, or no further sales are received the Company may need to raise additional funds through private placements of its securities or seek other forms of financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available to the Company on terms acceptable to it, if at all.  If the Companys operations are substantially curtailed, it may have difficulty fulfilling its current and future contract obligations.

On January 27, 2005 the Company received a Notice of Demand from OSI for US$500,000 alleging that the Company was in default under the terms of three agreements. The Company believes that OSI acted in bad faith and, as a result, the Company was unable to meet the terms of these agreements. The parties have agreed to refer this matter to the American Arbitration Association for resolution. While the Company believes that it has not defaulted under the terms of these agreements, there can be no assurance that this dispute will be resolved in the Companys favour and that the Company will not be required to pay the full or partial amount of such demand to OSI upon resolution of this dispute.



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At March 31, 2005 the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Item 3.  Controls and Procedures



Under the supervision and with the participation of the Companys management, including the Companys Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Vice-President, Finance, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) of the end of the period covered by this report (the Evaluation Date).  Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Vice-President, Finance concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting them to the material information relating to the Company (or its consolidated subsidiaries) required to included in the Companys periodic SEC filings.



During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, there was no significant change in the Companys internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial reporting.



The Companys management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer and Vice President, Finance, does not expect that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Exhibit 99.1

Risk Factors

The price of the Companys common shares is subject to the risks and uncertainty inherent in the Companys business.  You should consider the following factors as well as other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, in connection with any investment in the Companys common shares.  If any of the events described below as risks occur, the Companys business, results of operations and financial condition could be adversely affected.  In such cases, the price of the Companys common shares could decline, and you could lose all or part of your investment.



Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in its forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements or other future events. Moreover, neither the Company nor anyone else assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness its of forward-looking statements. You should consider the Companys forward-looking statements in light of the following risk factors and other information in this annual report. If any of the events described below actually occur, the Companys business, results of operation and financial condition could differ from those projected in its forward-looking statements. The Company is under no duty to update any of its forward-looking statements after the date of the annual report. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements.



Limited Operating History; History of Losses



The Company commenced operations in March 1998 and, therefore, has only a limited operating history upon which an evaluation of its business and prospects can be based. The Company and its predecessors incurred net losses of $5,457,937 and $4,058,857 in the years ended December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2003, respectively and $1,454,190 for the three-months ended March 31, 2005.  The Company has never been profitable and there can be no assurance that, in the future, the Company will be profitable on a quarterly or annual basis.



In view of the rapidly evolving nature of the Companys business and markets and limited operating history, the Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of financial results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indication of future performance.



The Report of the Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm on the Companys December 31, 2004 Financial Statements includes an explanatory paragraph that indicates the financial statements are affected by conditions and events that cast substantial doubt on the Companys ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.



Need for Additional Financing



On April 4, 2005, the Company announced that it entered into an agreement to complete a combination proposed brokered and non-brokered private placement of up to $1.7 million in units priced at $0.40 per unit.  Each unit will consist of one common share and one half of one common share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant will allow the holder for one year, from the date of issue of the units to purchase one additional common share at $0.55. This private placement remains subject to regulatory approval.  There can be no assurance however, that regulatory approval will be granted or that the Company will raise any funds through the proposed offering.  The Company currently has cash sufficient to fund its operations until September 30, 2005.  Further, the Company believes it has also received orders that if completed will generate cash sufficient in combination with the full amount of the gross proceeds of the proposed offering to fund its operations through December 31, 2005. If certain of the contracts are not completed, the proposed offering is not full subscribed or no further sales are received, the Company will be required to seek additional financing to fund its operations.  There is no assurance that the Company will be able to secure financing or that such financing will be obtained on terms favourable to the Company.  Failure to obtain adequate financing if necessary could result in significant delays in development of new products and a substantial curtailment of Imagis operations.



Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly Financial Results



The Companys financial results may vary from quarter-to-quarter based on factors such as the timing of significant orders and contract completions.  The Companys revenues are not predictable with any significant degree of certainty and future revenues may differ from historical patterns. If customers cancel or delay orders, it can have a material adverse impact on the Companys revenues and results of operations from quarter-to-quarter. Because the Companys results of operations may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter, you should not assume that you could predict results of operations in future periods based on results of operations in past periods.



---

Even though the Companys revenues are difficult to predict, it bases its expense levels in part on future revenue projections. Many of the Companys expenses are fixed, and it cannot quickly reduce spending if revenues are lower than expected. This could result in significantly lower income or greater loss than the Company anticipates for any given period. The Company will react accordingly to minimize any such impact.



New Product Development



The Company expects that a significant portion of its future revenue will be derived from the sale of newly introduced products and from enhancement of existing products. The Companys success will depend, in part, upon its ability to enhance its current products and to install such products in end-user applications on a timely and cost-effective basis. In addition, the Company must develop new products that meet changing market conditions, including changing customer needs, new competitive product offerings and enhanced technology. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in developing and marketing - on a timely and cost-effective basis - new products and enhancements that respond to such changing market conditions. If the Company is unable to anticipate or adequately respond on a timely or cost-effective basis to changing market conditions, to develop new software products and enhancements to existing products, to correct errors on a timely basis or to complete products currently under development, or if such new products or enhancements do not achieve market acceptance, the Companys business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows could be materially adversely affected. In light of the difficulties inherent in software development, the Company expects that it will experience delays in the completion and introduction of new software products.



Lengthy Sales Cycles



The purchase of any of the Companys software systems is often an enterprise-wide decision for prospective customers and requires the Company (directly or through its business partners) to engage in sales efforts over an extended period of time and to provide a significant level of education to prospective customers regarding the use and benefits of such systems. In addition, an installation generally requires approval of a governmental body such as municipal, county or state government, which can be a time-intensive process and require months before a decision to be made. Due in part to the significant impact that the application of the Companys products has on the operations of a business and the significant commitment of capital required by such a system, potential customers tend to be cautious in making acquisition decisions. As a result, the Companys products generally have a lengthy sales cycle ranging from six (6) to twelve (12) months. Consequently, if sales forecast from a specific customer for a particular quarter are not realized in that quarter, the Company may not be able to generate revenue from alternative sources in time to compensate for the shortfall. The loss or delay of a large contract could have a material adverse effect on the Companys quarterly financial condition, operating results and cash flows.  Moreover, to the extent that significant contracts are entered into and required to be performed earlier than expected, the Companys future operating results may be adversely affected.



Dependence on a Small Number of Customers



The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues, and it expects to continue to derive a substantial portion of its revenues in the near future, from sales to a limited number of customers. Unless and until the Company further diversifies and expands its customer base, the Companys success will depend significantly upon the timing and size of future purchase orders, if any, from its largest customers, as well as their product requirements, financial situation, and, in particular, the successful deployment of services using the Companys products. The loss of any one or more of these customers, significant changes in their product requirements, or delays of significant orders could have a material adverse affect upon the Companys business, operating results and financial condition.



Dependence on Key Personnel



The Companys performance and future operating results are substantially dependent on the continued service and performance of its senior management and key technical and sales personnel. The Company may need to hire a number of technical and sales personnel. Competition for such personnel is intense, and there can be no assurance that the Company can retain its key technical, sales and managerial employees or that it will be able to attract or retain highly qualified technical and managerial personnel in the future.



The loss of the services of any of the Companys senior management or other key employees or the inability to attract and retain the necessary technical, sales and managerial personnel could have a material adverse effect upon its business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows. With the exception of one key software developer, the Company does not currently maintain key man insurance for any senior management or other key employees.





2

---

Dependence on Marketing Relationships



The Companys products are primarily marketed by its business partners. The Companys existing agreements with business partners are nonexclusive and may be terminated by either party without cause at any time. Such organizations are not within the control of the Company, are not obligated to purchase products from the Company and may also represent and sell competing products. There can be no assurance that the Companys existing business partners will continue to provide the level of services and technical support necessary to provide a complete solution to its customers or that they will not emphasize their own or third-party products to the detriment of the Companys products. The loss of these business partners, the failure of such parties to perform under agreements with the Company or the inability of the Company to attract and retain new business with the technical, industry and application experience required to market the Companys products successfully could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.



Additionally, with respect to most sales, the Company supplies products and services to a customer through a third-party supplier acting as a project manager or systems integrator. In such circumstances, the Company has a sub-contract to supply its products and services to the customer through the prime contractor. In these circumstances, the Company is at risk that situations may arise outside of its control that could lead to a delay, cost over-run or cancellation of the prime contract which could also result in a delay, cost over-run or cancellation of the Companys sub-contract. The failure of a third-party supplier to supply its products and services or perform its contractual obligations to the customer in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Companys financial condition, results of operations and cash flows



Competition



The markets for the Companys products are highly competitive. Numerous factors affect the Companys competitive position, including supplier competency, product functionality, performance and reliability of technology, depth and experience in distribution and operations, ease of implementation, rapid deployment, customer service and price.



Certain of the Companys competitors have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and distribution resources than the Company. As a result, they may be able to respond more quickly to new or emerging technologies and changing customer requirements, or to devote greater resources to the development and distribution of existing products. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors or alliances of such competitors, or that competitive pressures faced by it will not materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.  See also Item 1  Business  Competition.



Proprietary Technology



The Companys success will be dependent upon its ability to protect its intellectual property rights. The Company relies principally upon a combination of copyright, patent and trade secret laws, non-disclosure agreements and other contractual provisions to establish and maintain its rights. The source codes for the Companys products and technology are protected both as trade secrets and as unpublished copyrighted works. As part of its confidentiality procedures, the Company enters into nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements with each of its key employees, consultants, distributors, customers and corporate partners, to limit access to and distribution of its software, documentation and other proprietary information. There can be no assurance that the Companys efforts to protect its intellectual property rights will be successful. Despite the Companys efforts to protect its intellectual property rights, unauthorized third-parties, including competitors, may be able to copy or reverse engineer certain portions of the Companys software products, and use such copies to create competitive products.



Policing the unauthorized use of the Companys products is difficult, and, while the Company is unable to determine the extent to which piracy of its software products exists, software piracy can be expected to continue. In addition, the laws of certain countries in which the Companys products are or may be licensed do not protect its products and intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of Canada and the United States. As a result, sales of products by the Company in such countries may increase the likelihood that its proprietary technology is infringed upon by unauthorized third parties.



In addition, because third parties may attempt to develop similar technologies independently, the Company expects that software product developers will be increasingly subject to infringement claims as the number of products and competitors in the Companys industry segments grow and the functionality of products in different industry segments overlaps. There can be no assurance that third parties will not bring infringement claims (or claims for

3





---

indemnification resulting from infringement claims) against the Company with respect to copyrights, trademarks, patents and other proprietary rights. Any such claims, whether with or without merit, could be time consuming, result in costly litigation and diversion of resources, cause product shipment delays or require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Such royalty or licensing agreements, if required, may not be available on terms acceptable to the Company or at all. A claim of product infringement against the Company and failure or inability of the Company to license the infringed or similar technology could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.



Exchange Rate Fluctuations



Because the Companys reporting currency is the Canadian dollar, its operations outside Canada face additional risks, including fluctuating currency values and exchange rates, hard currency shortages and controls on currency exchange. The Company does not currently engage in hedging activities or enter into foreign currency contracts in an attempt to reduce the Companys exposure to foreign exchange risks. In addition, to the extent the Company has operations outside Canada, it is subject to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations and exchange rate charges on the Companys reporting in its financial statements of the results from such operations outside Canada. Since such financial statements are prepared utilizing Canadian dollars as the basis for presentation, results from operations outside Canada reported in the financial statements must be restated into Canadian dollars utilizing the appropriate foreign currency exchange rate, thereby subjecting such results to the impact of currency and exchange rate fluctuations.



Risk of Software Defects



Software products as complex as those offered by the Company frequently contain errors or defects, especially when first introduced or when new versions or enhancements are released. Despite product testing, the Company has in the past released products with defects in certain of its new versions after introduction and experienced delays or lost revenue during the period required to correct these errors. The Company regularly introduces new versions of its software. There can be no assurance that, despite testing by the Company and its customers, defects and errors will not be found in existing products or in new products, releases, versions or enhancements after commencement of commercial shipments. Any such defects and errors could result in adverse customer reactions, negative publicity regarding the Company and its products, harm to the Companys reputation, loss or delay in market acceptance or required product changes, any of which could have a material adverse effect upon its business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.



Product Liability



The license and support of products by the Company may entail the risk of exposure to product liability claims. A product liability claim brought against the Company or a third-party that the Company is required to indemnify, whether with or without merit, could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.



Imagis UK Partnership



On July 31, 2004, the Company entered into an agreement with Centrom Limited (Centrom) of the United Kingdom to form a jointly owned subsidiary company Imagis Technologies UK Limited (Imagis UK). Imagis UK, a subsidiary of Centrom Limited, will be the exclusive distributor of Imagis software products in the UK and a non-exclusive distributor on a world-wide basis. Imagis owns a 25% interest in Imagis UK in consideration of the grant of UK exclusivity, and Centrom has committed to provide £500,000 (approximately $1.25 million) over the next two years to support the initial start-up costs of Imagis UK in consideration of a 75% ownership. Centroms commitment will be met through a combination of cash and services, with the services portion to be provided at Centroms cost without any mark-up. Included in the £500,000 commitment is a non-refundable advance licensing payment of £60,000 (approximately $150,000) which has been paid, representing an initial sales commitment by Imagis UK of approximately $250,000.



There can be no assurance that the relationships with Imagis UK and Centrom will prove to be successful in the future or will result in any material revenue for the Company.

Dispute with OSI

On July 8, 2002, the Company entered into the following agreements with OSI:

i.

Product Development and Marketing Agreement. Under this agreement, the Company formed a strategic alliance with OSI to develop mutually agreed integrated airport and transportation security products The Company agreed to commit a minimum of US$250,000 to develop these products and operate this group.

ii.

Software Developer Services Agreement. Under this agreement, the Company agreed to engage the services of software engineers and equipment in OSIs software development facility in Hyderabad, India. The Company agreed to pay to OSI a minimum of US$250,000 during the term of the agreement, which expired on June 30, 2003, provided that if the aggregate amount paid to OSI on such date was less than US$250,000, the agreement could be extended for six months.

iii.

Joint Venture Letter of Intent. Under this letter of intent, upon OSIs establishment of a Brazilian entity to oversee marketing, sales, service and assembly and marketing of OSIs products, in Brazil and the establishment of an office in Brazil, Imagis would invest US$250,000 for a 20% equity ownership in that entity.

On March 20, 2003 the above agreements were amended as follows:

i.

the strategic alliance agreement to develop and market integrated airport and security products with OSI was extended to July 8, 2004. The expenditure commitment was reduced to a minimum of US$125,000 on product development and the operation of an Airport Security Group to market the products. As at December 31, 2004, the Company has incurred US$48,350 in expenditures on product development.

ii.

the agreement to engage OSI to provide software development services was extended to December 31, 2004. The expenditure commitment has been reduced to a minimum of US$125,000, based on hourly rates charged at 85% of fair market value.

iii.

The Company agreed to pay OSI a management fee of US$250,000 on or before March 20, 2004



On January 27, 2005 the Company received a Notice of Demand from OSI for US$500,000 alleging that the Company was in default under the terms of these agreements. The Company believes that OSI acted in bad faith and, as a result, the Company was unable to meet the terms of these agreements. The parties have agreed to refer this matter to the American Arbitration Association for resolution. While the Company believes that it has not defaulted under the terms of these agreements, there can be no assurance that this dispute will be resolved in the Companys favour and that the Company will not be required to pay the full or partial amount of such demand to OSI upon resolution of this dispute.



Strategic Alliance with Sanyo and Intacta  to form Zixsys (formerly known as SecurityART Inc.)



During the second quarter of 2002, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with Sanyo and Intacta to form Zixsys.  Zixsys will integrate the hardware and software technologies of all three companies and thereafter market security products for use in airports, buildings, laboratories, document authentication and verification for passports, visas and ID cards. During the quarter ended September 30, 2002 Imagis acquired the rights to Intactas royalties payable under the strategic alliance agreement for consideration of US$150,000.  During fourth quarter ended December 31, 2002, the Company acquired all patents held by Intacta outside the United States in consideration of US$50,000.  There can be no assurance that the relationship with Zixsys or the integration of technologies with Zixsys will prove to be successful in the future or will result in any material revenue for the Company.



Volatility of the Company's Share Price



The Companys share price has fluctuated substantially since the Companys common shares were listed for trading on the TSX Venture Exchange and quoted on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB). The trading price of the Companys common shares is subject to significant fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly operating results, the gain or loss of significant orders, announcements of technological innovations, strategic alliances or new products by the Company or its competitors, general conditions in the securities industries and other events or factors. In addition, the stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have affected the market price for many companies in industries similar or related to the Company and have been unrelated to the operating performance of these companies. These market fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of the Companys common shares.

Certain Shareholders May Exercise Control over Matters Voted Upon by the Company's Shareholders



Certain of the Companys officers, directors and entities affiliated with the Company together beneficially owned a significant portion of the Companys outstanding common shares as of March 31, 2005. While these shareholders do not hold a majority of the Companys outstanding common shares, they will be able to exercise significant influence over matters requiring shareholder approval, including the election of directors and the approval of mergers, consolidations and sales of the Companys assets. This may prevent or discourage tender offers for the Companys common shares.



Additional Disclosure Requirements Imposed on Penny Stock Trades



If the trading price of Imagis common shares is less than $5.00 per share, trading in its common shares may be subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trades involving a stock defined as a penny stock.  Such additional disclosure includes, but is not limited to, U.S. broker-dealers delivering to customers certain information regarding the risks and requirements of investing in penny stocks, the offer and bid prices for the penny stock and the amount of compensation received by the broker-dealer with respect to any proposed transaction. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in Imagis common shares, which could reduce the liquidity of Imagis common shares and thereby have a material adverse effect on the trading market for such securities.



Enforcement of Civil Liabilities



Imagis is a corporation incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada.  A number of the Companys directors and officers reside in Canada or outside of the United States.  All or a substantial portion of the assets of such persons are or may be located outside of the United States.  It may be difficult to effect service of process within the United States upon the Company or upon such directors or officers or to realize in the United States upon judgments of United States courts predicated upon civil liability of the Company or such persons under United States federal securities laws. The Company has been advised that there is doubt as to whether Canadian courts would (i) enforce judgments of United States courts obtained against the Company or such directors or officers predicated solely upon the civil liabilities provisions of United States federal securities laws, or (ii) impose liability in original actions against the Company or such directors and officers predicated solely upon such United States laws.  However, a judgment against the Company predicated solely upon civil liabilities provisions of such United States federal securities laws may be enforceable in Canada if the United States court in which such judgment was obtained has a basis for jurisdiction in that matter that would be recognized by a Canadian court.

Managements Discussion and Analysis

As at May 10, 2005

About Imagis

Imagis develops and markets software that simplifies, accelerates, and economizes the process of connecting existing, disparate databases, enhanced as appropriate with biometric facial recognition technology. The combination of these technologies enables information owners to share data securely with external stakeholders and software systems using any combination of text or imagery. This includes searching disconnected data repositories for information about an individual using only a facial image.This allows organizations to quickly create regional information sharing networks using any combination of text or imagery.



Using industry standard Web services and XML, Imagis delivers a secure and economical approach to true, real-time application interoperability. Production deployments of the Companys core integration technology  BIE  have demonstrated remarkable reductions in the time and risk associated with implementing and supporting integrated access to physically and technologically disparate computers. The Company believes that the broad ranging applicability of BIE into a variety of vertical markets such as health care, financial services, government services and telecommunications has been clearly demonstrated by recent, successful deployments in the United States.

Overview

The Companys Business

The Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues, and it expects to derive a substantial portion of its revenues in the near future, from sales of its software to a limited number of customers. Additional revenues are achieved through the implementation and customization of this software as well as from the support, training, and ongoing maintenance that results from each software sale. The Companys success will depend significantly upon the timing and size of future purchase orders from its largest customers as well as from the ability to maintain relationships with its existing installed customer base

Typically, the Company enters into a fixed price contract with a customer for the licensing of selected software products and the provision of specific services.  The Company generally recognizes total revenue for software and services associated with a contract using percentage of completion method based on the total costs incurred over the total estimated costs to complete the contract.

The Companys revenue is dependent, in large part, on contracts from a limited number of customers.  As a result, any substantial delay in the Companys completion of a contract, the inability of the Company to obtain new contracts or the cancellation of an existing contract by a customer could have a material adverse effect on the Companys results of operations.  The loss of certain contracts could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business, financial condition, operating results and cash flows.  As a result of these and other factors, the Companys results of operations have fluctuated in the past and may continue to fluctuate from period-to-period.

Recent world events and concerns regarding security have increased awareness of and interest in products that have law enforcement or other security applications, including the products and services offered by Imagis.  There can be no assurance, however, that such trends will continue or will result in increased sales of the Companys products and services.

Critical Accounting Polices

Critical accounting policies are those that management believes are both most important to the portrayal of the Companys financial conditions and results, and that require difficult, subjective, or complex judgements, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that involve uncertainty.

Imagis believes the critical accounting policies it uses in preparation of its financial statements are as follows:

Revenue recognition

(iii)

Software sales revenue:

The Company recognizes revenue consistent with Statement of Position 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. In accordance with this Statement, revenue is recognized, except as noted below, when all of the following criteria are met: persuasive evidence of a contractual arrangement exists, title has passed, delivery and customer acceptance has occurred, the sales price is fixed or determinable and collection is reasonably assured.  Funds received in advance of meeting the revenue recognition criteria are recorded as deferred revenue.

When a software product requires significant production, modification or customization, the Company generally accounts for the arrangement using the percentage-of-completion method of contract accounting. Progress to completion is measured by the proportion that activities completed are to the activities required under each arrangement. When the current estimate on a contract indicates a loss, a provision for the entire loss on the contract is made.

When software is sold under contractual arrangements that include post-contract customer support (PCS), the elements are accounted for separately if vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE) of fair value exists for all undelivered elements. VSOE is identified by reference to renewal arrangements for similar levels of support covering comparable periods. If such evidence does not exist, revenue on the completed arrangement is deferred until the earlier of (a) VSOE being established or (b) all of the undelivered elements are delivered or performed, with the following exceptions: if the only undelivered element is PCS, the entire fee is recognized ratably over the PCS period, and if the only undelivered element is service, the entire fee is recognized as the services are performed.

3





---

The Company provides for estimated returns and warranty costs, which to date have been nominal, on recognition of revenue.

(iv)

Support and services revenue:

Contract support and services revenue is deferred and is amortized to revenue ratably over the period that the support and services are provided.

Intangible Assets:



Intangible assets acquired either individually or with a group of other assets are initially recognized and measured at cost. The cost of a group of intangible assets acquired in a transaction, including those acquired in a business combination that meet the specified criteria for recognition apart from goodwill, is allocated to the individual assets acquired based on their relative fair values. The cost of internally developed intangible assets includes direct development costs and overhead directly attributable to development activity. The cost incurred to enhance the service potential of an intangible asset is capitalized as betterment. Costs incurred in the maintenance of the service potential of an intangible asset are expensed as incurred.



Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives. The assets are amortized on a straight-line basis at the following annual rates, which are reviewed annually:



Asset

Rate

Intellectual property

33.3%

Patents

33.3%

License

33.3%



Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized and are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. The impairment test compares the carrying amount of the intangible asset with its fair value, and an impairment loss is recognized in income for the excess, if any.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported or disclosed in the financial statements. Actual amounts may differ from these estimates. Areas for significant estimate include but are not limited to valuation of accounts receivable; amortization periods for equipment, intellectual property and other assets; valuation of intellectual property; fair value inputs for calculation of stock-based compensation; and the valuation allowance of future income tax assets.

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for all stock-based payments to employees and non-employees using the fair value based method.



Under the fair value based method, stock-based payments are measured at the fair value of the consideration received, or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, or liabilities incurred, whichever is more reliably measurable. The fair value of stock-based payments to non-employees is periodically re-measured until counterparty performance is compete, and any change therein is recognized over the period and in the same manner as if the Company had paid cash instead of paying with or using equity instruments. The cost of stock-based payments to non-employees that are fully vested and non-forfeitable at the grant date is measured and recognized at that date.



Under the fair value based method, compensation cost attributable to employee awards is measured at fair value at the grant date and recognized over the vesting period. Compensation cost attributable to awards to employees that call for settlement in cash or other assets is measured at intrinsic value and recognized over the vesting period. Changes in intrinsic value between the grant date and the measurement date result in a change in the measure of compensation cost. For awards that vest at the end of the vesting period, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis; for awards that vest on a graded basis, compensation cost is recognized on a pro-rata basis over the vesting period.

Results of Operations for the three-months ended March 31, 2005 compared to March 31, 2004:

Revenues

Imagis total revenues increased 13% to $324,628 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 over the prior years revenue of $286,055. Revenues from the Companys software products increased 21% to $231,358 this year compared to $190,861 for 2004.



As at May 7, 2005, Imagis has received orders totalling $2,300,000 that have not been recorded in revenue as at March 31, 2005. As a result, Imagis expects that revenues will increase in subsequent quarters of 2005 when compared to those of 2004 and will continue to increase as the Companys current and newly developed products and solutions continue to gain increasing customer acceptance. There can be no assurance however that such revenue will materialize or if such revenue does materialize that it will be significant.



Support and services revenues remained static at $92,304 for the period ended March 31, 2005 compared to $93,088 in 2004. Other revenues were primarily earned through interest revenue and fluctuate with the Companys cash balances.

Operating Costs

Operating expenses totalled $1,778,818 for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005, which is 5% lower than the 2004 operating expenses of $1,867,856. The 2004 expenses include stock-based compensation of $102,592 due to Imagis employee stock option plan and $382,009 in amortization, which includes $322,713 in amortization costs for the intellectual property acquired in the Briyante acquisition. Excluding these non-cash charges the 2005 operating expenses total $1,294,217. The 2004 expenses include stock-based compensation of $714,930 and amortization of $387,472. Excluding these non-cash charges the operating expenses for 2004 were $765,454. The increase of $528,763 between 2005 and 2004 represents a 69% increase in operating expenses over the prior year. The increased costs over the prior period are due to hiring additional staff in all departments to increase sales, continue product development, and meet the increased demand for Imagis products and services.  Any further increases will only occur if required in order to meet increasing sales demand.



Administration



Administrative costs for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $446,331, which is 52% less than for 2004 of $934,484. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $68,382 in 2005 and $714,930 in 2004. Excluding these charges, the administrative costs were $377,949 in 2004 versus $219,554 in 2004, which represents a 72% increase. This increase was due to increased staffing, legal and filing costs.  Administrative costs include staff salaries and related benefits and travel, stock-based compensation, consulting and professional fees, facility and support costs, shareholder, regulatory, investor relations and general office operating costs.



Interest and Amortization



The interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 of $4,562, which is 60% less than for 2004 of $11,382, is primarily due to interest charged on various supplier accounts. The amortization expense of $382,009 for 2005 is consistent with 2004 of $387,472 and is primarily due to amortization of the acquisition of the intellectual property of Briyante.



Sales and Marketing



Sales and marketing expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $429,676 which is 115% greater than in 2004 of $199,842. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $18,373 in 2005. Excluding this charge, the sales and marketing costs were $411,303 in 2005, which represents a 106% increase over 2004. Imagis significantly increased the size of its sales and marketing team in the latter half of 2004. There was also a significant increase in travel expenses associated with the increased staffing levels.

Technology Development



The technology development expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $375,381 which is 43% greater then the 2004 cost of $262,684. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $11,128 in 2005. Excluding this charge, the technology development costs were $364,253 in 2005, which represents a 39% increase over 2004. This increase was primarily due to hiring additional staff and the associated costs required to maintain our enhancement of existing products and new product development. Management expects that the increased revenues achieved as a result of the sale of products will more than offset the increased costs. Management believes that continuing to invest in technology advancements is crucial to the future success of Imagis.



Technical Services



Costs for the technical services group for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 were $140,859, which is 96% greater than the comparable 2004 costs of $71,992. These costs include a stock-based compensation charge of $4,709 in 2005. Excluding this charge, the technology development costs were $136,150 in 2005, which represents an 89% increase over 2004. The increase is due to the hiring of staff and associated costs to meet the installation and support requirements for the sales orders described above.



The technical services group generally assists the Companys strategic partners in their installation of Imagis products and also provides clients with any technical support they may require under annual support contracts, and includes primarily costs for salaries, facilities and travel.



Net Loss for the Period



Overall, the Company incurred a net loss for the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 of $1,454,190 or $0.06 per share, which is 8% lower than the net loss of $1,581,801 or $0.14 per share. The Company has received significant sales orders during the final quarter of 2004 and the first quarter of 2005; however, installation did not commence until 2005 and the revenue will not be recognised until the second and third quarter of 2005.



The Company's current net loss on a monthly basis is $485,000.  Management believes that providing EBITDA information may be helpful to investors with respect to the Company's results of operations, because it excludes certain non-cash amortization amounts that the Company has incurred primarily as a result of its acquisition of certain intellectual property of Briyante that prevents an accurate period-to-period comparison.  When excluding such amortization expenses, the Company's current rate of loss on an EBITDA basis is $357,000 per month.



In the Company's most recent Form 10-KSB, management stated that it believed that the Company would be able to achieve break-even operations on an EBITDA basis during the second and third quarters of 2005.  Due to the timing of the completion of existing contracts and its effect upon the recognition of revenue, management is revising this estimate.  After excluding the Company's quarterly amortization expenses of $382,000 primarily associated with the Briyante acquisition, management believes that it will achieve break-even operations on an EBITDA basis during the third and fourth quarters of 2005.



Summary of Quarterly Results

|Total Revenue      | $ | 324,628     | 327,016     | 102,814     | 317,085     | 286,055     | 263,793   | 496,612   | 317,829  
|Loss               |   | (1,454,190) | (1,270,180) | (1,346,203) | (1,259,753) | (1,581,801) | (959,283) | (694,042) | (620,431)
|Net loss per share |   | (0.06)      | (0.08)      | (0.09)      | (0.09)      | (0.14)      | (0.15)    | (0.15)    | (0.13)   



The Companys changes in its net losses per quarter fluctuate according to the volume of sales. As the Company currently has a small number of customers generating the majority of its revenues, there is no consistency from one quarter to the next and past quarterly performance is not considered to be indicative of future results. The Company had significantly reduced its operating expenses during the period from Q3 2002 through Q3 2003, which also has a large impact on the comparative loss figures. In the latter part of 2004 and Q1 2005 the Company has hired additional staff to meet the demands of the sales orders described above, causing a significant increase in expense levels. The Company is not aware of any significant seasonality affecting its sales.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Companys cash on hand at the beginning of the three-month period ended March 31, 2005 aggregated $123,148. During the period, the Company received additional net funds of $927,454 from a private placement that closed in January, less $140,000 received prior to January 1, 2005.



The Company used these funds primarily to finance its operating loss for the period. The impact on cash of the loss of $1,454,190, after adjustment for non-cash items and changes to other working capital accounts in the period, resulted in a negative cash flow from operations of $790,125. The Company also repaid capital leases of $10,416 and purchased capital assets of $23,589, overall the Companys cash position decreased by $36,676 to $68,760 at March 31, 2005.



In January 2005, the Company completed a private placement consisting of 2,857,785 units at $0.35 per unit. Each unit consisted of one common share and one common share purchase warrant.  Each warrant entitles the holder to acquire one additional common share at an exercise price of $0.45 until January 11, 2006 or at $0.55 from January 12, 2006 until January 11, 2007. The common shares and warrants were subject to a four month hold period that expired on May 10, 2005. Finders fees of $72,771 in cash were paid on a portion of the private placement conducted outside the United States. The total net proceeds to Imagis were $927,454.



The Company experienced unexpected delays in concluding certain contract negotiations; consequently completion of the associated software installations were delayed. As a result of this delayed collection of revenues, management decided to seek additional financing in order to maintain its current level of operations.



On April 4, 2005, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to complete a proposed combination brokered and non-brokered private placement (the Offering) of up to $1,700,000 at $0.40 per unit. Each unit will consist of one common share and one half of one common share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant will entitle the holder for one year from the date of issuance of the units to acquire one additional common share at an exercise price of $0.55. The private placement remains subject to regulatory approval.  There can be no assurance that regulatory approval will be granted or that any funds will be raised in the proposed offering.



The consideration paid to the agent for the proposed brokered portion of the offering will be:

a)

a cash commission of 7.5% of the gross proceeds of the offering;

b)

brokers warrants entitling the holder to purchase up to such number of common shares as is equal to 10% of the total number of units sold through such offering, with each warrant exercisable for a period of one year for one common share at the price of the units;

c)

a corporate finance fee of 60,000 units, subject to a one year hold period; and

d)

a work fee of $5,000 cash plus reasonable expenses.



During the final quarter of 2004, the Company was awarded a contract with PRIME Corp. of British Columbia, Canada to deploy the Imagis flagship InForce Arrest and Booking (InForce AB) software as an integrated component of the province-wide Police Records Information Management Environment (PRIME-BC). This contract will result in revenues to the Company in excess of $800,000; the Company has received $389,000 as at March 31, 2005 which is recorded in Deferred Revenue, revenues from this contract will be recorded in the second and third quarters of 2005.



In April 2005, the Company signed a US$780,500 contract with King County of Washington to supply a major expansion of the highly successful RAIN (Regional Automated Information Network) project for the Countys law enforcement agencies. This project will expand RAINs capabilities and benefits to over 3000 officers across 23 independent police jurisdictions responsible for protecting over 1.7 million citizens. The revenues from this contract will be recognized during the second and third quarters of 2005.



The Company also has received other orders with certain agencies in the United States that total an additional approximately $500,000, the amounts due under these contracts are expected to be received by the Company in the second and third quarters of 2005.



If the Company raises the full amount of the proposed offering, the Company believes it will have cash sufficient to fund its operations through September 30, 2005.  Further, the Company believes the orders described above if completed will generate cash sufficient in combination with the full amount of the gross proceeds of the proposed offering to fund its operations through December 31, 2005.  If certain of the contracts are not completed, the proposed offering is not fully subscribed, or no further sales are received the Company may need to raise additional

funds through private placements of its securities or seek other forms of financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available to the Company on terms acceptable to it, if at all.  If the Companys operations are substantially curtailed, it may have difficulty fulfilling its current and future contract obligations.

On January 27, 2005 the Company received a Notice of Demand from OSI for US$500,000 alleging that the Company was in default under the terms of three agreements. The Company believes that OSI acted in bad faith and, as a result, the Company was unable to meet the terms of these agreements. The parties have agreed to refer this matter to the American Arbitration Association for resolution. While the Company believes that it has not defaulted under the terms of these agreements, there can be no assurance that this dispute will be resolved in the Companys favour and that the Company will not be required to pay the full or partial amount of such demand to OSI upon resolution of this dispute.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At March 31, 2005 the Company did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Transactions with Related Parties

Special warrants:



During October and November 2003, the Company sold a total of 9,796,087 special warrants (the Special Warrants) at $0.1725 per Special Warrant in a series of four tranches.  Cash proceeds of $899,075 less commissions of $39,757 were received for the sale of 5,212,029 Special Warrants and 4,584,058 Special Warrants were issued in settlement of $790,750 in debt.  Each Special Warrant is exercisable, for no additional consideration, into units consisting of 0.2222 common shares and 0.2222 share purchase warrants, with the exception of 1,002,899 Special Warrants issued to insiders of the Company.  The units issued to insiders of the Company are exercisable into 0.2222 common shares with no share purchase warrant.  Each whole warrant entitles the holder for two years from the date of issue of the Special Warrants to acquire one additional common share at an exercise price of $1.04 per share in the first year and $1.14 per share in the second year.  The Special Warrants are convertible at the holders option at any time for an eighteen month period and will convert automatically at the end of the eighteen months.  The Company will not be required to meet any conditions prior to conversion.  Finders fees of $39,758 cash and 38,641 in brokers warrants exercisable at $1.04 per share were paid.  The brokers warrants are exercisable until October 30, 2004 and have been recorded at the fair value as at the date of issue of $7,327 as a reduction in the proceeds of the Special Warrants and an increase in contributed surplus.  As at May 10, 2005, 2,176,892 units have been issued on conversion of the Special Warrants which resulted in the issuance of 2,176,892 common shares and 1,954,025 share purchase warrants.

Options:



The Company has a stock option plan that was approved at the Companys annual general meeting of shareholders on June 18, 2004.  Under the terms of the plan the Company may reserve up to 3,347,690 common shares for issuance under the plan.  The Company has granted stock options to certain employees, directors, advisors, and consultants.  These options are granted for services provided to the Company.  All options granted prior to November 25, 2003, expire five years from the date of grant with the exception of 22,222 options issued during 2002 to a consultant that expire two years from the date of grant.  All options granted subsequent to November 25, 2003, expire 3 years from the date of the grant.  All options vest one-third on the date of the grant, one-third on the first anniversary of the date of the grant and one-third on the second anniversary of the date of the grant.  On November 25, 2003, all stock options along with the Companys outstanding shares were consolidated on a 1 new option for 4.5 old basis. During the period ended December 31, 2004 all options outstanding as at December 31, 2003 were repriced to $0.78. For options that were granted prior to the adoption of the fair value based method, the fair value of the award was remeasured at the date of modification, and the full amount of the fair value was recorded as the compensation cost to the extent that vesting has occurred at December 31, 2004.



For options issued in 2003 and previously accounted for under the fair value method, modification accounting is applied.  Under modification accounting the Company recorded additional expense equal to the difference between the fair value of the original award on the date of the reprising, and the fair value of the modified award also on the date of the reprising.
