LUXEYARD INC.

JUNE 30, 2012

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Basis of Presentation and Going Concern

 

Basis of Presentation

 

Luxeyard Inc., (the “Company”, “we” or “our”), a Delaware Corporation, is an internet company selling luxury goods on a flash web site. Luxeyard, Inc. is the parent company of the wholly owned subsidiaries, LY Retail, LLC (“LY Retail Texas”), incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on April 20, 2011 and LY Retail, LLC incorporated in the State of California on November 8, 2011.

 

We have prepared the accompanying consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial reporting. These consolidated financial statements are unaudited and, in our opinion, include all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments and accruals necessary for a fair presentation of our consolidated balance sheets, operating results, and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for 2012 due to seasonal and other factors. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been omitted in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company has incurred operating losses and negative operating cash flows which raise doubt on its ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management Plans to Continue as a Going Concern

 

The Company continues to implement plans to enhance its ability to continue as a going concern. We have recently made web-site improvements to facilitate easier purchasing and make our site more accessible. We have entered into operating agreements with Jaxon, LeatherGroups and Bari, so that we can obtain economies of scale in our sales, marketing and administrative costs. We have reduced our salary expense from reduction of our work force.

 

The Company plans to continue its acquisitions at a rate that is compatible with its cash flow and funding opportunities. The Company’s sources of funds in the past have included the debt or equity markets and, while the Company has experienced revenue growth from its flash web-site and its management services agreements with Jaxon, LeatherGroups and Bari, it has not yet established a positive cash flow on a company-wide basis. It will be necessary for the Company to obtain additional funding from the private or public debt or equity markets in the future. However, the Company cannot offer any assurance that it will be successful in executing the aforementioned plans to continue as a going concern. The Company’s financial statements as of June 30, 2012 do not include any adjustments that might result from the inability to implement or execute the Company’s plans to improve our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

2. Significant Accounting Policies

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Luxeyard, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, LY Retail Texas and LY Retail, LLC. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The financial statements are prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, and expenses for the six and three months ended June 30, 2012 and the period from inception to June 30, 2011. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

We recognize revenue from product sales when the following four criteria are met: pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

We provide all customer care and support for the merchandise sold on our website and we are not acting as agents for the vendors. Our members have a relationship only with us and we are responsible for fulfillment and customer satisfaction. We have traditional merchant-vendor relationships with our vendors and are not acting as their agent.

 

7
 

 

Product sales represent revenue from the sale of products and related shipping fees where we are the seller of record. Product sales and shipping revenues, net of promotional discounts, rebates, and return allowances, are recorded when the products are shipped and title passes to customers. Retail sales to customers are made pursuant to a sales contract that provides for transfer of both title and risk of loss upon our delivery to the carrier.

 

We record and report revenue on the gross amount billed to customers when the following indicators are met:

· we are the primary obligor in the transaction

· we are subject to inventory risk and credit risk for amount billed to the customer

· we have latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers

 

Sales, where we have a revenue sharing arrangement with a vendor, are recorded net of the vendors’ share.

 

Refunds

 

At the end of the accounting period, we record an allowance for estimated customer refunds. We accrue costs associated with refunds in accrued expenses on the consolidated balance sheets. The cost of refunds where the amount payable to the merchant is recoverable is recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as a reduction to revenue.

 

Inventories 

 

Inventories, consisting of products available for sale, are primarily accounted for using the first-in first-out (“FIFO”) method, and are valued at the lower of cost or market value. This valuation requires us to make judgments, based on currently-available information about likely method of disposition, such as through sales to individual customers, returns to product vendors, or liquidations, and expected recoverable values of each disposition category.

 

Earnings (Loss) per Common Share

 

Basic earnings (loss) per common share (EPS) is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to the common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Fully diluted earnings per common share is computed similar to basic EPS except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The dilutive effect of our share-based awards is computed using the treasury stock method, which assumes that all share-based awards are exercised and the hypothetical proceeds from exercise are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. The dilutive effect of our Series A convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures is computed using the if-converted method, which assumes conversion at the beginning of the year.

 

The following represents a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computation for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012:

 

Six months ended June 30, 2012  Net income attributable to
common shareholders 
(Numerator)
   Shares 
(Denominator)
   Per share
Amount
 
Basic EPS  $1,511,042    65,339,431   $0.02 
Effect of dilutive securities               
Stock options and warrants   -    19,247,178      
Diluted EPS  $1,511,042    84,586,609   $0.02 

 

Common stock equivalents related to the convertible debentures and the Series A convertible preferred stock of 17,804,286 were not included in the denominators of the diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

Three months ended June 30, 2012  Net income attributable to
common shareholders 
(Numerator)
   Shares 
(Denominator)
   Per share
Amount
 
Basic EPS  $10,033,699    67,359,672   $0.15 
Effect of dilutive securities               
Stock options and warrants   -    23,928,178      
Convertible debentures   (2,464,657)   8,900,000      
Diluted EPS  $7,569,042    100,187,850   $0.08 

 

Common stock equivalents related to the Series A convertible preferred stock of 8,904,286 were not included in the denominators of the diluted earnings per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Financial instruments are recorded at fair value in accordance with the standard for “Fair Value Measurements codified within ASC 820.” Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To increase the comparability of fair value measures, the following hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation methodologies used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1-Valuations based on quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.

 

Level 2-Valuations based on observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

 

Level 3-Valuations based on unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants. These valuations require significant judgment. The following table presents the derivative financial instruments, the Company’s only financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets on a recurring basis, and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011:

 

   June 30, 2012   Level 1   Level 2   Level 3 
Warrants  $7,036,939    -    -    7,036,939

Overview

 

We function as a member-based online marketplace for luxury consumer products. We source from merchants and offer to our members through our website via a “flash sale” or “daily deal” at deep discounts to retail prices.  In January 2012, we launched our website www.Luxeyard.com and began operations. We launched with the product line of home goods and furniture. On March 27, 2012, we launched LuxeStyle apparel line. Initially, we focused on household furnishings and goods such as furniture, lighting and bedding. We recently expanded into apparel and accessories.   As our member base and merchant selection increase, we expect to expand our offerings to include other consumer goods such as travel, gourmet food and beverages, consumer services events and gift cards. On May 1, 2012, we entered into operating agreements with Jaxon International, LLC (Jaxon) and Home Loft, Inc. to operate its Leather Groups (LG) website. Jaxon is a traditional “bricks and mortar” retail location and LG is a retail web site. On August 6, 2012, we entered into a Management Services Agreement with Ferris Holding Company, Inc., a Delaware corporation, DBA “Bari Leather Furniture” (Bari) to operate its Bari Leather Furniture website.

 

Each week we conduct several “flash sale” events on our website in which we feature merchandise at steep discounts to suggested retail prices.  At the beginning of each event, members receive an email describing the featured products and directing them to our website to participate.  We list events on the member homepage of our website and each event remains on our site for three to five days, depending on demand and quantity offered.

 

In addition to flash sales, we also feature a “Daily Deal” whereby we offer a single product on our website for a 24 hour period.  Similar to flash sales, our members receive email notifications when deals commence, directing them to the member homepage for more details.  Unlike other deal of the day models, members are not required to purchase a minimum number of products before the deal becomes active.  In some cases, when our Group Buy feature is active, as more members participate in the deal, the purchase price decreases.

 

Members purchase products directly through our website via credit card and, in most cases, products ship directly from the merchant’s location to the member.

 

With our Concierge Buying program, we use a model similar to Facebook and Pinterest to determine what customers want. We then source the most popular products and offer those to the members via a sale that features special notifications and discounts for those who contributed to the process.

 

In April, we began a Business to Business program through which we source containers of goods and sell them to retailers via our business to business website. The retailers are offered products prior to the arrival of the container shipments and any unsold items from the container shipment are then offered on our website. The Business to Business program is operating under the TradeYard dba and offers flash sales to businesses and daily deals to businesses.

 

14
 

 

We manage and operate the retail store, Jaxon which provides us a retail outlet. We also manage the LeatherGroups and Bari Leather Furniture web-sites.

 

Additionally, we syndicate sales events and product sales with other flash sale and daily deal websites wherein we provide goods to be sold on their websites.

 Plan of Operation

 

We have successfully launched our web site and our home furnishings and apparel divisions. Additionally, we have experienced significant growth in membership, which were 728,311 on August 15, 2012. We are focused on strengthening our relationships with vendors/suppliers and forming strategic alliances with other web-based merchants who act as distribution partners.  During the next twelve months, we expect to take the following steps in connection with the further development of our business and the implementation of our plan of operations:

 

¨ Continue scaling our marketing campaign to attract a high volume of quality members to our website. Marketing initiatives consist of search engine optimization, social media marketing, referral and affiliate marketing programs, pay-per-click search and display advertising and public relations;
¨ Expand upon our member relations and communication activities, with email retention and activation campaigns, additional editorial content and celebrity Trendsetter involvement that will increase our site traffic and build our brand;
¨ Continue to improve upon the ability for our website to deliver a high-quality consumer ecommerce experience, the hallmark of which is access to luxury products at affordable prices for our members;
¨ Identify and partner with more merchants whose products we want to feature on our website.  We believe featuring a variety of merchants makes our marketplace more attractive to members;
¨ Expand our product offering to include additional vertical market segments, which may include travel, gourmet food and beverages, consumer services, events and gift cards;
¨ Acquire companies whose offerings are complementary to our categories and accretive to our revenue. We believe the flash sale category is ripe for consolidation, and as such we are in a position to pursue a strategic acquisition plan;
¨ Establish new domestic and international syndication partnerships with companies whose existing customer base can extend the distribution of our products;
¨ Build on the momentum of our Concierge Buying and Group Buy features, which currently differentiate us and we believe hold tremendous value as consumers increasingly leverage their collective buying power to identify, share and pay for products at the intersection of social, mobile and ecommerce technologies; and
¨ Expand our business-to-business operation into a key market differentiator and one that will scale on the basis of our ability to source products for thousands of smaller vendors.
¨ Expand our buying power with the addition of like kind web-site alliances through operating agreements and/or acquisitions. 

 

Over the next twelve months, we anticipate expenses of up to $12.4 million, including general, administrative and corporate expenses and we expect revenue of up to $29.3 million and cost of goods sold of $20.8 million. We anticipate that we will need an additional $4 million in financing in the next twelve months to facilitate our growth. We have implemented cost savings measures to reduce our overhead, including reduction in staff and reduction in facilities. We intend to pursue our strategy of acquiring the targeted companies that will increase our revenue and at the same time reduce our cost of obtaining merchandise because we will be able to obtain greater discounts with larger orders. We will also be able to leverage our infrastructure and obtain economies of scale and replicate our technology across the various verticals. Based on the historical results for Jaxon, LG and Bari, combined with the expected growth for our web sales, we expect to be able to execute our business plan.

 

Results of Operations

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we had revenues of $861,052 compared to revenue of $0 for the period from inception to June30, 2011. For the three month period ended June, 30, 2012 our revenue was $705,963 representing a 355% quarter to quarter growth. The increase is mainly brought about by the official launch of our web site in January and the launch of our apparel line in February and our operating agreements with Jaxon and LeatherGroups entered into May 1, 2012 and our increased sales from our website in the second quarter. Our net profit for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $1,511,042 and for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 was $10,033,699 compared to a $3,790 loss for the period from inception to June 30, 2011. The income was primarily from a gain on our complex derivatives of $13,498,925 for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 and a gain of $19,793,619 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012. These gains were triggered by a drop in the market value of our common shares. Operating loss for the six month period ended June 30, 2012 was $9,676,355 and for the three month period ended June30, 2012 was $7,515,194. A contributing factor to this loss was the fair market value of the 5,408,178 restricted shares issued for services provided by our CEO and various vendors in the amount of $5,249,224 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2012. Our other significant expenses were payroll of $1.2 Million for the six month and $742,029 for the three month period ended June 30, 2012 and marketing of $576,000 for the six month and $217,819 for three month periods ended June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, we had total current assets of $1,539,807 and total current liabilities of $573,940 compared to total current assets of $326,842 and total current liabilities of $343,711 at December 31, 2011.

The Company recognizes revenue and cost of goods sold for operating the Jaxon retail store. The Company pays a monthly overhead allocation of $45,000 to cover Jason’s fixed operating expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $223,757 of sales and $137,473 of cost of goods sold for the Jaxon store. An overhead allocation of $90,000 was paid to Jaxon during the period.

 

The Company paid a $50,000 non-refundable deposit to Home Loft. For operating the web-site, the Company receives all of the revenue for products that it sells and recognizes the cost of goods sold. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded $75,394 of sales and $24,369 of cost of goods sold for the LG.

  

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of June 30, 2012 we had cash of $1,065,692 compared to cash of $154,400, on December 31, 2011.  Our primary uses of cash were for marketing expenses, employee compensation, and working capital. The main sources of cash were from the proceeds from the private offering of its securities and from the issuances of debt in the form of debentures. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:

 

  ¨ An increase in working capital requirements,
  ¨ Our plans to acquire additional web-sites and compatible businesses
  ¨ Infrastructure Improvements
  ¨ Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows,
  ¨ Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions as we commence operations,
  ¨ Development of new members and market initiation, and
  ¨ The cost of being a public company and the continued increase in costs due to governmental compliance activities.

 

The following summarizes the key components of the Company’s cash flows for the first 6 months 2012 and for fiscal 2011:

 

   Six Months 
Ended 
June 30,
2012
   For the 
Period from 
April 20
(Inception) to 
June 30,
2011
 
Cash flows used in operating activities  $(4,345,620)  $1,753 
Cash flows used in  investing activities   (360,813)     
Cash flows from financing activities   5,617,725      
           
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents  $911,292   $1,753 

 

We plan to fund our activities during the fiscal 2012 and beyond through the sale of debt or equity securities or bank financing. We are subject to certain restrictions under the terms of the private placements that closed in 2011 and 2012 which could affect our ability to obtain additional financing. We cannot be certain that such funding will be available on acceptable terms or available at all. To the extent that we raise additional funds by issuing debt or equity securities or through bank financing, our stockholders may experience significant dilution. If we are unable to raise funds when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly scale back, or discontinue, our operations.

Going Concern

 

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. As of June 30, 2012, we have generated minimal revenues since inception.  We expect to finance our operations primarily through our existing cash, our operations and any future financing.  However, there exists substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern because we will be required to obtain additional capital in the future to continue our operations and there is no assurance that we will be able to obtain such capital, through equity or debt financing, or any combination thereof, or on satisfactory terms or at all. Additionally, no assurance can be given that any such financing, if obtained, will be adequate to meet our capital needs. If adequate capital cannot be obtained on a timely basis and on satisfactory terms, our operations would be materially negatively impacted. Therefore, there is substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to complete additional offerings is dependent on the state of the debt and/or equity markets at the time of any proposed offering, and such market’s reception of the Company and the offering terms. There is no assurance that capital in any form would be available to us, and if available, on terms and conditions that are acceptable.

 

Our business is capital intensive. Our ability to grow is dependent upon favorably obtaining outside capital and generating cash flows from operating activities necessary to fund our investment activities. There is no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitability. Since our future operations will continue to be dependent on successful execution of our business plan and our acquisition activities and our ability to seek and secure capital from external sources, should we be unable to achieve sustainable profitability this could cause any equity investment in the Company to decline in value.

 

Major sources of funds in the past for us have included the debt or equity markets. While we have achieved a significant increase in our Gross Margin from the flash web site and from our Management Services Agreements, we do not have positive cash flow. We will have to rely on these capital markets to fund future operations and growth. Our business model is focused on acquiring Jaxon, LeatherGroups and Bari and other verticals as well as retail sales from our web-site and wholesale sales generated by TradeYard. Our ability to generate future revenues and operating cash flow will depend on successful retail and wholesale sales and the ability to execute our business plan, which will require us to continue to raise equity or debt capital from outside sources.

 

The Company has ongoing capital commitments to acquire Jaxon, LeatherGroups and Bari subject to their underlying terms. Failure to meet such ongoing commitments may result in the loss of the ability to make these acquisitions. These ongoing commitments may also cause us to seek additional capital from sources outside of the Company. The current uncertainty in the credit and capital markets, and the economic downturn, may restrict our ability to obtain needed capital.

 

In the current fiscal year, we continue to seek additional financing for our planned development and growth activities. We plan to obtain financing through various methods, including issuing debt securities, equity securities, bank debt, or combinations of these instruments which could result in dilution to existing security holders and increased debt and leverage. No assurance can be given that we will be able to obtain funding under any loan commitments or any additional financing on favorable terms, if at all.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

  

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

We consider cash on hand and demand deposits with original maturities of six months or less as cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows. As of June 30, 2012 we had $1,065,692 in cash compared to $154,400 in cash at December 31, 2011.

 

Share-Based Payments

 

The Company accounts for share-based awards to employees in accordance with FASB ASC 718 “Stock Compensation”. Under this guidance, stock compensation expense is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite employee service period (generally the vesting period). The Company estimates the fair value of share-based payments using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

 

Share-based awards to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505-50, wherein such awards are expensed over the period in which the related services are rendered at their fair value.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Most of our vendor relationships follow a traditional retail model and only do revenue sharing in a small segment of apparel sales, We recognize revenue from product sales when the following four criteria are met: pervasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the selling price is fixed or determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

 

We provide all customer care and support for the merchandise sold on our website and we are not acting as agents for the vendors. Our members have a relationship only with us and we are responsible for fulfillment and customer satisfaction. We have traditional merchant-vendor relationships with our vendors and are not acting as their agent.

 

 

18
 

 

Product sales represent revenue from the sale of products and related shipping fees where we are the seller of record. Product sales and shipping revenues, net of promotional discounts, rebates, and return allowances, are recorded when the products are shipped and title passes to customers. Retail sales to customers are made pursuant to a sales contract that provides for transfer of both title and risk of loss upon our delivery to the carrier.

 

We record and report revenue on the gross amount billed to customers when the following indicators are met:

¨ we are the primary obligor in the transaction

¨ we are subject to inventory risk and credit risk for amount billed to the customer

¨ we have latitude in establishing prices and selecting suppliers

 

Sales, where we have a revenue sharing arrangement with a vendor, are recorded net of the vendors’ share.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

We do not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flow.

  

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, sales or expenses, results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures, or capital resources that are material to an investment in our securities.

  

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Not Applicable.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, management concluded as of June 30, 2012 that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We deemed the controls to be ineffective due to a lack of segregation of duties and in controls over corporate governance. We have begun hiring additional accounting staff and are currently in the process of hiring in-house council to address these control issues.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

During the six month period ended June 30, 2012, the Company hired additional accounting staff and was able to implement policy and procedures to provide segregation of duties as of the end of the period. No other change in our system of internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

On May 2, 2012, the Company and Pacific Capital Group, Inc. (“PCG”) executed a Memorandum of Understanding (the “MOU”) that contemplates PCG providing consulting services to the Company in exchange for an option to purchase shares of the Company.  In subsequent discussions and email correspondence, the parties have considered various quantities of shares to be subject to purchase by PCG, and the most recent amount under consideration was 2,000,000.  In emails between the Company and PCG, both parties have discussed whether “the deal is dead” without an investment from PCG and, to date, the parties have not resolved the number of shares PCG is eligible to purchase.  Accordingly, there are outstanding, unresolved disputes between the parties with respect to the MOU related to: (i) whether the MOU constitutes a binding agreement and, if so, (ii) the number of option shares, if any, subject to the MOU, and (iii) the scope of PCG’s consulting services contemplated by the MOU. 

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

Not applicable because we are a smaller reporting company.

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

On April 5, 2012, the Company issued Tommy Allen 1,500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.69 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 2, 2012, the Company issued Placements Media50,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.62 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 12, 2012, the Company issued Amie Yoon (Dotted Line Communications) 25,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 12, 2012, the Company issued Braden Richter 300,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 12, 2012, the Company issued Darcy Cobb (Dotted Line Communications) 25,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 12, 2012, the Company issued Aldidad Mireskandari 187,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.80 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 12, 2012, the Company issued 50,000 restricted shares of common stock with a fair value of $40,000 to Regard Solutions, Inc. as a finder’s fee ($0.80).

 

On April 18, 2012, the Company issued Edward Sullivan 100,000 shares of common stock at a price of $0.94 per share for consulting services.

 

On April 30, 2012, the Company issued Firerock Capital, Inc. 500,000 shares of common stock at a price of $1.22 per share for consulting services.

 

These shares were issued in reliance on the exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 'Act'). These shares of our Common Stock qualified for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 since the issuance shares by us did not involve a public offering. The offering was not a 'public offering' as defined in Section 4(2) due to the insubstantial number of persons involved in the deal, size of the offering, manner of the offering and number of shares offered. We did not undertake an offering in which we sold a high number of shares to a high number of investors. In addition, these shareholders had the necessary investment intent as required by Section 4(2) since they agreed to and received share certificates bearing a legend stating that such shares are restricted pursuant to Rule 144 of the 1933 Securities Act.  This restriction ensures that these shares would not be immediately redistributed into the market and therefore not be part of a 'public offering.' Based on an analysis of the above factors, we have met the requirements to qualify for exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 for this transaction.
