On October 9, 2008, the Company acquired the majority of shares in Maximus Exploration Corporation, a reporting shell company, pursuant to a share exchange agreement. The share exchange provided for the exchange rate of 1 share of Maximus common stock for 60 shares Extraordinary Vacations USA common stock. The consolidated financial statements of Next 1, Interactive, Inc. reflects the retroactive effect of the Share Exchange as if it had occurred at March 1, 2008. All loss per share amounts are reflected based on Next 1 shares outstanding, basic and dilutive.

 

Effective May 22, 2012, the Company effected a 1-for-500 reverse stock split which reduced the number of issued and outstanding shares from 1,848,014,287 to 3,696,029 shares. The consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

 

Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

 

The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting and include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation. These consolidated financial statements have not been audited.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations for interim reporting. The Company believes that the disclosures contained herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended February 29, 2012, which is included in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended February 29, 2012. The financial data for the interim periods presented may not necessarily reflect the results to be anticipated for the complete year.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.

Note 1 - Summary of Business Operations and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Use of Estimates

 

The Company’s significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of intangible assets, accrued expenses and derivative liabilities. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While the Company believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, the actual amounts of such estimates, when known, will vary from these estimates. If actual results significantly differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations could be materially impacted.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and short-term investments with insignificant interest rate risk and original maturities of 90 days or less.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business. Further, the Company regularly reviews outstanding receivables, and provides for estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the level of established loss reserves, the Company makes judgments regarding its customers’ ability to make required payments, economic events and other factors. As the financial condition of these parties change, circumstances develop or additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required. The Company also performs ongoing credit evaluations of customers’ financial condition. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses, and such losses traditionally have been within its expectations.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

In accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 360-10, “Property, Plant and Equipment”, the Company periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. As of August 31, 2012, the Company had no long-lived assets.

 

Website Development Costs

 

The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 “Website Development Costs”. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred.

 

Management placed the website into service during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, subject to straight-line amortization over a three year period.

 

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

 

The Company applies Accounting Standards Codification 350-20 “Goodwill and Other”, which established accounting and reporting requirements for goodwill and other intangible assets. The standard requires that all intangible assets acquired that are obtained through contractual or legal right, or are capable of being separately sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged must be recognized as an asset apart from goodwill. Intellectual properties obtained through acquisition, with indefinite lives, are not amortized, but are subject to an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test. Intellectual properties that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives. The amortization expense for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011 is $34,050 and $611,436, respectively.

 

Convertible Debt Instruments

 

The Company records debt net of debt discount for beneficial conversion features and warrants, on a relative fair value basis. Beneficial conversion features are recorded pursuant to the Beneficial Conversion and Debt Topics of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amounts allocated to warrants and beneficial conversion rights are recorded as debt discount and as additional paid-in-capital. Debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

Note 1 - Summary of Business Operations and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The Company enters into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments or are hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features. The Company accounts for these arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“ASC 815”) as well as related interpretation of this standard. In accordance with this standard, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, giving consideration to all of the rights and obligations of each instrument.

 

We estimate fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered to be consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, we consider, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as free-standing warrants, we generally use the Black-Scholes model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black-Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of the new accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the company’s common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.

 

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per common share is not presented because it is anti-dilutive. The Company’s common stock equivalents include the following:

Revenue Recognition

 

Barter

 

Barter transactions represent the exchange of advertising or programming for advertising, merchandise or services. Barter transactions which exchange advertising for advertising are accounted for in accordance with EITF Issue No. 99-17 “Accounting for Advertising Barter Transactions” (ASC Topic 605-20-25), which are recorded at the fair value of the advertising provided based on the Company’s own historical practice of receiving cash for similar advertising from buyers unrelated to the counterparty in the barter transactions.

 

Barter transactions which exchange advertising or programming for merchandise or services are recorded at the monetary value of the revenue expected to be realized from the ultimate disposition of merchandise or services. Expenses incurred in broadcasting barter provided are recorded when the program, merchandise or service is utilized.

 

The Company did not recognize Barter revenue or expense for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Note 1 - Summary of Business Operations and Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

 

Travel

 

Gross travel tour revenues represent the total retail value of transactions booked for both agency and merchant transactions recorded at the time of booking, reflecting the total price due for travel by travelers, including taxes, fees and other charges, and are generally reduced for cancellations and refunds.  We also generate revenue from paid cruise ship bookings in the form of commissions. Commission revenue is recognized at the date the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

 

Advertising

 

We recognize advertising revenues in the period in which the advertisement is displayed, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. If fixed-fee advertising is displayed over a term greater than one month, revenues are recognized ratably over the period as described below. The majority of insertion orders have terms that begin and end in a quarterly reporting period. In the cases where at the end of a quarterly reporting period the term of an insertion order is not complete, the Company recognizes revenue for the period by pro-rating the total arrangement fee to revenue and deferred revenue based on a measure of proportionate performance of its obligation under the insertion order. The Company measures proportionate performance by the number of placements delivered and undelivered as of the reporting date. The Company uses prices stated on its internal rate card for measuring the value of delivered and undelivered placements. Fees for variable-fee advertising arrangements are recognized based on the number of impressions displayed or clicks delivered during the period.

 

Under these policies, no revenue is recognized unless persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is deemed reasonably assured. The Company considers an insertion order signed by the client or its agency to be evidence of an arrangement.

 

Cost of Revenues

 

Cost of revenues includes costs directly attributable to services sold and delivered. These costs include such items as broadcast carriage fees, costs to produce television content, sales commission to business partners, hotel and airfare, cruises and membership fees.

 

Sales and Promotion

 

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and promotional expenses, salary expenses associated with sales and marketing staff, expenses related to our participation in industry conferences, and public relations expenses. The goal of our advertising is to acquire new subscribers for our e-mail products, increase the traffic to our Web sites, and increase brand awareness.

 

Advertising Expense

 

Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred and are included in selling and promotions expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Advertising expense for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and August 31, 2011 was $16,620 and $85,000, respectively.

 

Share Based Compensation

 

The Company computes share based payments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 718-10 “Compensation” (ASC 718-10). ASC 718-10 establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services at fair value, focusing primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employees services in share-based payment transactions. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods and services that are based on the fair value of an entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments.

 

In March 2005, the SEC issued SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB 107”) which provides guidance regarding the interaction of ASC 718-10 and certain SEC rules and regulations. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of ASC 718-10.

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes, as clarified by ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are determined based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax laws. Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on changes to the assets or liabilities from year to year. In providing for deferred taxes, the Company considers tax regulations of the jurisdictions in which the Company operates, estimates of future taxable income, and available tax planning strategies. If tax regulations, operating results or the ability to implement tax-planning strategies vary, adjustments to the carrying value of deferred tax assets and liabilities may be required. Valuation allowances are recorded related to deferred tax assets based on the “more likely than not” criteria of ASC 740.

 

ASC 740-10 requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the relevant tax authority.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company adopted ASC topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC 820), formerly SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements,” effective January 1, 2009. ASC 820 defines “fair value” as the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There was no impact relating to the adoption of ASC 820 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

ASC 820 also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  · Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

 

  · Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

  · Level 3: Inputs that are generally unobservable. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short- term nature. The fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. See note 15 for Fair Value footnote.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts previously reported in the fiscal year ended February 29, 2012 have been reclassified to conform to the classifications used in the six months ended August 31, 2012. Such reclassifications have no effect on the reported net loss.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the FASB and International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) (collectively the “Boards”) issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”). ASU 2011- 04 created a uniform framework for applying fair value measurement principles for companies around the world and clarified existing guidance in US GAAP. ASU 2011-04 is effective for the first reporting annual period beginning after December 15, 2011 and shall be applied prospectively. We do not expect this standard to have any material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements (continued)

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This update is intended to increase the prominence of other comprehensive income in the financial statements by requiring public companies to present comprehensive income either as a single statement detailing the components of net income and total net income, the components of other comprehensive income and total other comprehensive income, and a total for comprehensive income or using a two statement approach including both a statement of income and a statement of comprehensive income. The option to present other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity has been eliminated. The amendments in this update, which should be applied retrospectively, are effective for public companies for fiscal years, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance will not have any impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

During September 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment, ("ASU Update No. 2011-08). ASU Update No. 2011-08 is intended to simplify how entities, both public and nonpublic, test goodwill for impairment. ASU Update No. 2011-08 permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is "more likely than not" that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other. The more-likely-than-not threshold is defined as having a likelihood of more than 50%. ASU Update No. 2011-08 is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. Early adoption is permitted, including for annual and interim goodwill impairment test performed as of a date before September 15, 2011, if an entity's financial statements for the most recent annual or interim period have not yet been issued or, for nonpublic entities, have not yet been made for issuance. The adoption of this guidance will not have any impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

During November 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet (Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, (ASU Update No.2011-11). ASU Update No. 2011-11, requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. Offsetting, otherwise known as netting, is the presentation of assets and liabilities as a single net amount in the statement of financial position (balance sheet). An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. We will be adopting ASU Update No. 2011-11 during our first quarter of fiscal 2014.

 

Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 2 - Going Concern

 

As reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $67,913,583 and a working capital deficit of $12,541,363 at August 31, 2012, net losses for the six months ended August 31, 2012 of $926,617 and cash used in operations during the six months ended August 31, 2012 of $1,865,451. While the Company is attempting to increase sales, the growth has yet to achieve significant levels to fully support its daily operations.

 

Management’s plans with regard to this going concern are as follows: The Company will continue to raise funds through private placements with third parties by way of a public or private offering. In addition, the Board of Directors has agreed to make available, to the extent possible, the necessary capital required to allow management to aggressively expand its planned Interactive and Video on Demand solutions. Management and Board members are working aggressively to increase the viewership of our network by promoting it across other mediums as well as other networks which will increase value to advertisers and result in higher advertising rates and revenues.

 

While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to improve sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s limited financial resources have prevented the Company from aggressively advertising its products and services to achieve consumer recognition. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate greater revenues. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate additional revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

Note 3 – Property and Equipment

 

As of August 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, the Company did not record property and equipment on its books and records. Any property and equipment previously recorded was fully impaired and written off. Therefore there was no depreciation expense recorded for the six months ended August 31, 2012 and 2011.

The first $185,000 in payments shall be in cash and the remaining $600,000 shall be made in cash or common stock. On February 15, 2012, the noteholder assigned $225,000 of its $785,000 outstanding promissory note to a non- related third party investor and the Company issued a new convertible promissory note for the same value. As of August 31, 2012, the remaining principal balance is $510,000 and the note is in default.

 

On August 16, 2004, the Company entered into a promissory note with an unrelated third party for $500,000.

The notes bear interest at 10% per year and matured on May 31, 2010, at which time the total amount of principle and accrued interest was due. In connection with the restructure of these notes the Company issued 150,000 detachable 3 year warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share. The warrant issuance was recorded as a discount and amortized monthly over the terms of the note. On July 30, 2010, the Company issued 535,000 shares of common stock to settle all of these note agreements except for $25,000 of principal and $4,065 of un-paid interest still owed as of August 31, 2012 and the Company is in default of this note.

The lender has the option to receive payment of the loan in the amount of $100,000 plus 100,000 warrants for Next 1 Interactive common stock at $0.50 per share for a 3 year term or an alternative form of repayment. The alternative form of repayment gives the lender the right to have the loan amalgamated into an existing subscription agreement with the Noteholder, under the same terms of $0.50 per share with two warrants per share exercisable at $1.00 per share with a three year term. The Company has not issued the warrants to the lender and on May 16, 2011, entered into a convertible promissory note agreement rolling the balance of $100,000, adjoining an additional note for $125,000 into a new convertible promissory note of $225,000.

On March 5, 2010, the Company entered into a promissory note with a former director (“holder”) of the Company.  Pursuant to the note, the holder agreed to loan the Company $3,500,000. The note has an effective date of January 25, 2010 and a maturity date of January 25, 2011. The note bears interest at 6% per annum.   Previous to entering into this agreement and as an incentive, the Company, on January 27, 2010, issued 7,000,000 warrants to the holder with a six-year life and a fair value of $2.3 million to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.00001 par value, per share, at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.

Preferred stock in general

 

The aggregate number of shares of Preferred Stock that the Corporation is authorized to issue up to One Hundred Million (100,000,000), with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

 

The Preferred Stock may be divided into and issued in series. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized to divide the authorized shares of Preferred Stock into one or more series, each of which shall be so designated as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series and classes. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and this Article, to fix and determine the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations and terms of the shares of any series of Preferred Stock.

 

Preferred Series A

 

The Company has authorized 3,000,000 shares, par value $.01 per share and designated as Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”). The holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the Corporation and shall be entitled to one hundred (100) votes for each share of Series A Preferred Stock. The Company had 1,884,611 and 1,809,611 shares issued and outstanding as of August 31, 2012 and February 29, 2012, respectively.

 

Per the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, subject to the availability of authorized and unissued shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may, by written notice to the Corporation, may elect to convert all or any part of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock into Common Stock at a conversion rate of the lower of (a) $0.50 per share or (b) at the lowest price the Company has issued stock as part of a financing. Additionally, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock, may by written notice to the Corporation, convert all or part of such holder’s shares (excluding any shares issued pursuant to conversion of unpaid dividends) into debt obligations of the Corporation, secured by a security interest in all of the Corporation and its’ subsidiaries, at a rate of $0.50 of debt for each share of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of this Corporation, either voluntary or involuntary (any of the foregoing, a “liquidation”), holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of this Corporation to the holders of the Common Stock or any other series of Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof an amount per share equal to $1.00 for each share (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits with respect to such shares) of Series A Preferred Stock held by each such holder, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared) from the beginning of the dividend period in which the liquidation occurred to the date of liquidation.

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging; Contracts in Entity’s own Equity (“ASC 815-40”) became effective for us on March 1, 2010. The Company’s Series A (convertible) Preferred Stock has certain reset provisions that require the Company to reduce the conversion price of the Series A (convertible) Preferred Stock if we issue equity at a price less than the conversion price. Upon the effective date, the provisions of ASC 815-40 required a reclassification to liability based on the reset feature of the agreements if the Company sells equity at a price below the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock.

 

For the six months ended August 31, 2012, the Company, in accordance with ASC 815-40, determined the fair value of the Preferred Series A stock to be $41,947, using the Black-Scholes formula assuming no dividends, a risk-free interest rate of 0.22%, expected volatility of 391..05%, and expected life of 2 years (based on the current rate of conversion). Changes in fair value are recorded as non-operating, non-cash income or expense at each reporting date. The change in fair value of the Preferred Series A derivative liability resulted in current year non-operating income included in operations of $1,296,070.

 

Preferred Series B

 

The Company has authorized 3,000,000 shares of Non-Voting Series B 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share.

Note 15Segment Reporting

 

Accounting Standards Codification 280-16 “Segment Reporting”, established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial statements and required selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. It also established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and geographic areas. Operating segments are defined as components of the enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

 

The Company has two reportable operating segments: Media and Travel. The accounting policies of each segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Each segment has its own product manager but the overall operations are managed and evaluated by the Company’s chief operating decision makers for the purpose of allocating the Company’s resources. The Company also has a corporate headquarters function which does not meet the criteria of a reportable operating segment. Interest expense and corporate expenses are not allocated to the operating segments.

Note 16 – Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company has adopted new guidance under ASC Topic 820, effective January 1, 2009. New authoritative accounting guidance (ASC Topic 820-10-15) under ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, delayed the effective date of ASC Topic 820-10 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis, until 2009.

 

ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy, giving the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets and the lowest priority to unobservable data and requires disclosures for assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on their level in the hierarchy. Further new authoritative accounting guidance (ASU No. 2009-05) under ASC Topic 820, provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liabilities is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the techniques provided for in this update.

 

The standard describes a fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered observable and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value which are the following:

 

  · Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

  · Level 2 - Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets of liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

20
 

 

Note 16 – Fair Value Measurements (continued)

 

  · Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

 

Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

 

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and ASC 815,”Derivatives and Hedging.”Derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives. The effects of interactions between embedded derivatives are calculated and accounted for in arriving at the overall fair value of the financial instruments. In addition, the fair values of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrant and option derivatives are valued using the Black-Scholes model.

 

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant derivative liabilities and embedded conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Black-Scholes option pricing model based on various assumptions. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives.

 

The following table sets forth the liabilities as of August 31, 2012, which is recorded on the balance sheet at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy. As required, these are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement:

Note 17Subsequent Events

 

In May 2009, the FASB issued accounting guidance now codified as FASC Topic 855, “Subsequent Events,” which establishes general standards of accounting for, and disclosures of, events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are issued or are available to be issued. FASC Topic 855 is effective for interim or fiscal periods ending after June 15, 2009. Accordingly, the Company adopted the provisions of FASC Topic 855 on June 30, 2009. The Company evaluated subsequent events for the period after August 31, 2012, and has determined that all events requiring disclosure have been made.

Material Definitive Agreement

 

On October 9, 2012, RealBiz Media Group, Inc., formerly known as Webdigs, Inc. (our “Company”), and Next 1 Interactive, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Next 1”), completed the transactions contemplated by that certain Share Exchange Agreement entered into on April 4, 2012 (the “Exchange Agreement”). Under the Exchange Agreement, our Company received all of the outstanding equity in Attaché Travel International, Inc., a Florida corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Next 1 (“Attaché”). Attaché in turn owns approximately 80% of a corporation named RealBiz Holdings Inc. which is the parent corporation of RealBiz360, Inc. (“RealBiz”). RealBiz is a real estate media services company whose proprietary video processing technology has made it one of the leaders in providing home virtual tours to the real estate industry. In exchange for our Company’s receipt of the Attaché shares from Next 1, our Company issued to Next 1 a total of 93 million shares of our newly designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (our “Series A Stock”). The exchange of Attaché shares in exchange for our Series A Stock is referred to as the “Exchange Transaction.”

 

Coincident with the closing of the Exchange Transaction, we converted all of our outstanding debt, payables and liabilities owed to Robert A. Buntz, Jr. (“Buntz”) and Edward Wicker (“Wicker”) into an aggregate of 7 million shares of Series A Stock. Specifically, Buntz received 5,983,600 shares of Series A Stock upon his conversion of approximately $401,498 in liabilities we owed him, and Wicker received 1,016,400 shares of Series A Stock upon his conversion of approximately $53,356 in liabilities we owed him. Buntz was, and remains after the Exchange Transaction, a director of our Company and our Chief Executive Officer. At the closing of the Exchange Transaction, Wicker resigned his position as a director of our Company and as our Chief Financial Officer.

 

As a condition to the closing of the Exchange Transaction, our Company changed its name from “Webdigs, Inc.” to “RealBiz Media Group, Inc.” on October 3, 2012, by engaging in a short-form parent-subsidiary merger in the State of Delaware.

 

As a result of the Exchange Transaction and the conversion of liabilities referred to above, the shareholders of our Company before the Exchange Transaction retained approximately 365,176 shares of common stock (after giving effect to a reverse split effected as of May 3, 2012), representing approximately .364% of our issued and outstanding shares of capital stock (both common and preferred) immediately after the Exchange Transaction. Unless otherwise indicated, all common share figures set forth are on a post-split basis.

Sufficiency of Cash Flows

 

Because current cash balances and projected cash generation from operations are not sufficient to meet the Company’s cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. The sale of additional equity could result in additional dilution to the Company’s shareholders. A portion of the Company’s cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, the Company evaluates potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At August 31, 2012, the Company had $4,065 cash on-hand, a decrease of $8,924 from $12,989 at the start of fiscal 2012. The decrease in cash was due primarily to operating expenses.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $1,865,451 for the quarter ended August 31, 2012; a decrease of $618,275 from $2,483,726 used during the quarter ended August 31, 2011. This decrease was due to a reduction in net loss partially offset by interest, loss on derivatives, stock based consulting and increases in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

Net cash used in investing activity increased to $277,000 for the quarter ended August 31, 2012, compared to $100,000 for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 due to the purchase of an option agreement.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $135,047 to $2,133,527, for the quarter ended August 31, 2012, compared to $2,268,574 for the quarter ended August 31, 2011.  This decrease was primarily due to the net increase of $334,148 in shareholder loans; an increase of $253,938 in proceeds from stock issuances and subscriptions; a net increase of $133,367 of other notes payable; decrease of $856,500 for convertible promissory notes

 

The growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We currently have limited financial resources and based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or long term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

 

Since our inception in June 2002, we have been focused on the travel industry solely through the Internet. We have recently changed our business model from a company that generates nearly all revenues from its travel divisions to a media company focusing on travel and real estate by utilizing multiple media platforms including the Internet, radio and television. As a company that has recently changed our business model and emerged from the development phase with a limited operating history, we are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. We cannot assure you that the business will continue as a going concern or ever achieve profitability. Due to the absence of an operating history under the new business model and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until such time as we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams.

 

The Company will need to raise substantial additional capital to support the on-going operation and increased market penetration of our Video on Demand real estate and travel business and R&RTV including the development of national sales representation for national and global advertising and sponsorships, increases in operating costs resulting from additional staff and office space until such time as we generate revenues sufficient to support the business. We believe that in the aggregate, we will need approximately $1 million to $5 million to support and expand the network reach, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and satisfy payment obligations under carriage/distribution agreements, office space and systems required to manage the business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from media advertising, sponsorships, e-commerce, travel and real estate are fully-implemented and begin to offset our operating costs. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in raising the required capital to complete this portion of its business plan.

 

Since our inception, we have funded our operations with the proceeds from the private equity financings. The Company issued these shares without registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, afforded the Company under Section 4(2) promulgated thereunder due to the fact that the issuance did not involve a public offering of securities. The shares were sold solely to “accredited investors” as that term is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and pursuant to the exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) and Regulation D thereunder.

 

Currently, revenues provide less than 20% of the Company’s cash requirements. The remaining cash need is derived from raising additional capital. The current monthly cash burn rate is approximately $300,000. We expect the monthly cash burn rate will gradually increase to approximately $1.0 million, with the expectation of profitability by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.

 

Our multi-platform media revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven and there can be no assurance that we can achieve profitable operations. Our ability to generate revenues depends, among other things, on our ability to operate our television network and create enough viewership to provide advertisers, sponsors, travelers and home buyers value. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our business model will be successful or that we can sustain revenue growth, or achieve or sustain profitability.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Market Risk

 

This represents the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in value of a financial instrument as a result of fluctuations in interest rates and market prices. We do not currently have any trading derivatives nor do we expect to have any in the future. We have established policies and internal processes related to the management of market risks, which we use in the normal course of our business operations.

 

Item 4.Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

 

Our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of August 31, 2012. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the lack of an independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert which represents a material weakness as reported in the February 29, 2012, Annual Report on Form 10-K. Due to liquidity issues, we have not been able to immediately take any action to remediate this material weakness. However, when conditions allow, we will expand our board of directors and establish an independent audit committee consisting of a minimum of three individuals with industry experience including a qualified financial expert. Notwithstanding the assessment that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective and that there was a material weakness as identified herein, we believe that our consolidated financial statements contained herein fairly present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods covered thereby in all material respects.

 

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

 

During the quarter ended August 31, 2012, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
