CLOUDCOMMERCE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

 NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED

MARCH 31, 2019

 

1.  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of CloudCommerce, Inc. (“CloudCommerce,” “we,” “us,” or the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been in accordance with the instructions to interim financial reporting as prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. These interim financial statements do not include all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and footnotes filed with the SEC in the Company's Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report include all known accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods reported herein. Any such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company's condensed consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Going Concern

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business.  The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.  The Company does not generate significant revenue, and has negative cash flows from operations, which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern and appropriateness of using the going concern basis is dependent upon, among other things, an additional cash infusion. The Company has obtained funds from its shareholders since its inception. It is management’s plan to generate additional working capital from increasing sales from its desktop and mobile service offerings, and then continue to pursue its business plan and purposes.

2.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

This summary of significant accounting policies of CloudCommerce is presented to assist in understanding the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes are representations of the Company’s management, which is responsible for their integrity and objectivity. These accounting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and have been consistently applied in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, CLWD Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CLWD Ops”, formerly Indaba Group, Inc.), Parscale Digital, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Parscale Digital”), WebTegrity, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“WebTegrity”), Data Propria, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Data Propria”), Parscale Media, LLC, a Texas limited liability company (“Parscale Media”), and Giles Design Bureau, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Giles Design Bureau”). All significant inter-company transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

Accounts Receivable

The Company extends credit to its customers, who are located nationwide. Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Management reviews accounts receivable on a regular basis, based on contracted terms and how recently payments have been received to determine if any such amounts will potentially be uncollected. The Company includes any balances that are determined to be uncollectible in its allowance for doubtful accounts. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off. The balance of the allowance account at March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 are $27,002 and $45,613 respectively.

On November 30, 2016, CLWD Operations entered into a 12-month agreement wherein amounts due from our customers were pledged to a third party, in exchange for a borrowing facility in amounts up to a total of $400,000. The agreement was amended on March 23, 2017, which increased the allowable borrowing amount by $100,000, to a maximum of $500,000. On November 30, 2017, the agreement auto renewed for another twelve months. The proceeds from the facility are determined by the amounts we invoice our customers. We record the amounts due from customers in accounts receivable and the amount

due to the third party as a liability, presented as a “Lines of credit” on the Balance Sheet. During the term of this facility, the third-party lender has a first priority security interest in CLWD Operations, and therefore, we will require such third-party lender’s written consent to obligate CLWD Operations further or pledge our assets against additional borrowing facilities. Because of this position, it may be difficult for CLWD Operations to secure additional secured borrowing facilities. The cost of this secured borrowing facility is 0.05% of the daily balance. As of March 31, 2019, the balance due from this arrangement was $38,619.

On October 19, 2017, Parscale Digital entered into a 12-month agreement wherein amounts due from our customers were pledged to a third party, in exchange for a borrowing facility in amounts up to a total of $500,000. The proceeds from the facility are determined by the amounts we invoice our customers. The Company evaluated this facility in accordance with ASC 860, classifying it as a secured borrowing arrangement. We record the amounts due from customers in accounts receivable and the amount due to the third party as a liability, presented as a “Lines of credit” on the Balance Sheet. During the term of this facility, the third-party lender has a first priority security interest in the Company, and will, therefore, we will require such third-party lender’s written consent to obligate the Company further or pledge our assets against additional borrowing facilities. Because of this position, it may be difficult for the Company to secure additional secured borrowing facilities. The cost of this secured borrowing facility is 0.05% of the daily balance. On April 12, 2018, the Company amended the secured borrowing arrangement, which increased the maximum allowable balance by $250,000, to a total of $750,000. As of March 31, 2019, the balance due from this arrangement was $186,726.

On August 2, 2018, Giles Design Bureau, WebTegrity, and Data Propria entered into 12-month agreements wherein amounts due from our customers were pledged to a third-party, in exchange for borrowing facilities in amounts up to a total of $150,000, $150,000 and $600,000, respectively. The proceeds from the facility are determined by the amounts we invoice our customers. We evaluated these facilities in accordance with ASC 860, classifying as secured borrowing arrangements. We record the amounts due from customers in accounts receivable and the amount due to the third party as a liability, presented as a “Lines of credit” on the Balance Sheet. During the term of these facilities, the third-party lender has a first priority security interest in the respective entities, and will, therefore, we will require such third-party lender’s written consent to obligate the entities further or pledge our assets against additional borrowing facilities. Because of this position, it may be difficult for the entities to secure additional secured borrowing facilities. The cost of this secured borrowing facilities is 0.056%, 0.056% and 0.049%, respectively, of the daily balance. As of March 31, 2019, the combined balance due from these arrangement was $121,771.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions by management in determining the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates are primarily used in our revenue recognition, the allowance for doubtful account receivable, fair value assumptions in accounting for business combinations and analyzing goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived asset impairments and adjustments, the deferred tax valuation allowance, and the fair value of stock options and warrants.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 31, 2019, the Company held cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $225,096, which was held in the operating bank accounts. Of this amount, none was held in any one account, in amounts exceeding the FDIC insured limit of $250,000.

Research and Development

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Total research and development costs were zero for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018.

The Company expenses the cost of advertising and promotional materials when incurred. Total advertising costs were $2,934 and $2,599 for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value, due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s notes payable have stated borrowing rates that are consistent with

 Table of Contents 

those currently available to the Company and, accordingly, the Company believes the carrying value of these debt instruments approximates their fair value.

Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability, between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements assume that the asset or liability is (1) exchanged in an orderly manner, (2) the exchange is in the principal market for that asset or liability, and (3) the market participants are independent, knowledgeable, able and willing to transact an exchange. Fair value accounting and reporting establishes a framework for measuring fair value by creating a hierarchy for observable independent market inputs and unobservable market assumptions and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop fair value estimates. As such, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methods could have a material effect on the estimated fair value.

As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company had no assets or liabilities that are required to be valued on a recurring basis.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company 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. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset would be written down to fair value. Fair value is determined by an evaluation of available price information at which assets could be bought or sold, including quoted market prices, if available, or the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on reasonable and supportable assumptions.

Indefinite Lived Intangibles and Goodwill Assets 

The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” where the total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired customer lists, acquired technology, and trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. The purchase price is allocated using the information currently available, and may be adjusted, up to one year from acquisition date, after obtaining more information regarding, among other things, asset valuations, liabilities assumed and revisions to preliminary estimates. The purchase price in excess of the fair value of the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill.

The Company tests for indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. In accordance with its policies, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill at December 31, 2018 and determined there was no impairment of indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill.

Business Combinations 

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the purchase method. The cost of the acquisition is measured at the aggregate of the fair value, at the acquisition date, of assets received, liabilities incurred or assumed, and equity instruments issued by the Company in exchange for control of the acquiree. Any costs directly attributable to the business combination are expensed in the period incurred. The acquiree’s identifiable assets and liabilities are recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date.

Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognized as an asset and initially measured at cost, being the excess of the cost of the business combination over the Company’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognized.

Concentrations of Business and Credit Risk

The Company operates in a single industry segment. The Company markets its services to companies and individuals in many industries and geographic locations. The Company’s operations are subject to rapid technological advancement and intense competition. Accounts receivable represent financial instruments with potential credit risk. The Company typically offers its customers credit terms. The Company makes periodic evaluations of the credit worthiness of its enterprise customers and other than obtaining deposits pursuant to its policies, it generally does not require collateral. In the event of nonpayment, the Company has the ability to terminate services. As of March 31, 2019, the Company held cash and cash equivalents in the

10 
 Table of Contents 

amount of $225,096, which was held in the operating bank accounts. Of this amount, none was held in any one account, in amounts exceeding the FDIC insured limit of $250,000.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company addressed the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for either equity instruments of the enterprise or liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. The transactions are accounted for using a fair-value-based method and recognized as expenses in our statement of operations.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized during the period is based on the value of the portion of stock-based payment awards that is ultimately expected to vest. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statement of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2019, included compensation expense for the stock-based payment awards granted prior to, but not yet vested, as of March 31, 2019 based on the grant date fair value estimated. Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 is based on awards ultimately expected to vest or has been reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The stock-based compensation expense recognized in the consolidated statements of operations during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were $81,370 and $160,072, respectively.

Basic and Diluted Net Income (Loss) per Share Calculations

Income (Loss) per Share dictates the calculation of basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings per share is computed similar to basic earnings per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. The shares for employee options, warrants and convertible notes were used in the calculation of the income per share.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company has excluded 151,475,799 shares of common stock underlying options, 10,000 Series A Preferred shares convertible into 100,000,000 shares of common stock, 18,025 Series B Preferred shares convertible into 450,625,000 shares of common stock, 14,425 Series C Preferred shares convertible into 144,250,000 shares of common stock, 90,000 Series D Preferred shares convertible into 225,000,000 shares of common stock, 10,000 Series E Preferred shares convertible into 20,000,000 shares of common stock and 61,086,140 shares of common stock underlying $502,067 in convertible notes, because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.

For the three months ended March 31, 2018, the Company has excluded 154,800,000 shares of common stock underlying options, 10,000 Series A Preferred shares convertible into 100,000,000 shares of common stock, 18,025 Series B Preferred shares convertible into 450,625,000 shares of common stock, 14,425 Series C Preferred shares convertible into 144,250,000 shares of common stock, 90,000 Series D Preferred shares convertible into 225,000,000 shares of common stock, 10,000 Series E Preferred shares convertible into 20,000,000 shares of common stock and 24,660,068 shares of common stock underlying $98,640 in convertible notes, because their impact on the loss per share is anti-dilutive.

Dilutive per share amounts are computed using the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding and potentially dilutive securities, using the treasury stock method if their effect would be dilutive.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Management reviewed accounting pronouncements issued during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and the following pronouncements were adopted during the period.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”). Under ASC 842, lessees are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases, other than those that meet the definition of a short-term lease. For income statement purposes, leases are classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases are expensed on a straight-line basis, similar to current operating leases, while finance leases result in a front-loaded pattern, similar to current capital leases. The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019 and elected certain available transitional practical expedients.

Management reviewed accounting pronouncements issued during the year ended December 31, 2018, and the following pronouncements were adopted during the period.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein. The Company follows paragraph 606 of the

11 
 Table of Contents 

FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition and ASU 2014-09, adopting the pronouncements on January 1, 2018. The company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when services are performed to such a degree that the performed service is delivered or deliverable to the client, or when a tangible item, such as interior décor or signage, is delivered to the client. Since the Company was already recognizing revenue in a manner consistent with paragraph 606 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, there was no material impact on prior year results.

ASU 2014-09 supersedes existing guidance on revenue recognition with a five-step model for recognizing and measuring revenue from contracts with customers. The objective of the new standard is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires a number of disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and the related cash flows. The guidance can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method) or retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the guidance at the date of initial adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed or substantially completed as of January 1, 2018. The timing and measurement of revenue recognition under the new standard is not materially different than under the old standard. The adoption of the new standard had an immaterial impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13) "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The amendments in this ASU simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test and eliminating the requirement for a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. Instead, under this pronouncement, an entity would perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and would recognize an impairment change for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized is not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects will be considered, if applicable. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry-forwards. The measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities is based on provisions of applicable tax law. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced, if necessary, by a valuation allowance based on the amount of tax benefits that, based on available evidence, is not expected to be realized. The three months ended March 31, 2019, we used the federal tax rate of 21% in our determination of the deferred tax assets and liabilities balances.

3.  REVENUE RECOGNITION

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, “ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The core principles of revenue recognition under ASC 606 includes the following five criteria:

1.Identify the contract with the customer

Contract with our customers may be oral, written, or implied. A written and signed contract stating the terms and conditions is the preferred method and is consistent with most customers. The terms of a written contract may be contained within the body of an email, during which proposals are made and campaign plans are outlined, or it may be a stand-alone document signed by both parties. Contracts that are oral in nature are consummated in status and pitch meetings and may be later followed up with an email detailing the terms of the arrangement, along with a proposal document. No work is commenced without an understanding between the Company and our customers, that a valid contract exists. 

2.Identify the performance obligations in the contract

Our sales and account management teams define the scope of services to be offered, to ensure all parties are in agreement and obligations are being delivered to the customer as promised. The performance obligation may not be fully identified in a mutually signed contract, but may be outlined in email correspondence, face-to-face meetings, additional proposals or scopes of work, or phone conversations. 

3.Determine the transaction price

Pricing is discussed and identified by the operations team prior to submitting a proposal to the customer. Based on the obligation presented, third-party service pricing is established, and time and labor are estimated, to determine the most accurate transaction pricing for our customer. Price is subject to change upon agreed parties, and could be fixed or variable, milestone focused or time and materials.

4.Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract

If a contract involves multiple obligations, the transaction pricing is allocated accordingly, during the performance obligation phase (criteria 2 above).

5.Recognize revenue when (or as) we satisfy a performance obligation

The Company uses several means to satisfy the performance obligations:

a.Billable Hours – The Company employs a time tracking system where employees record their time by project. This method of satisfaction is used for time and material projects, change orders, website edits, revisions to designs, and any other project that is hours-based. The hours satisfy the performance obligation as the hours are incurred.
b.Ad Spend - To satisfy ad spend, the Company generates analytical reports monthly or as required to show how the ad dollars were spent and how the targeting resulted in click-throughs. The ad spend satisfies the
13 
 Table of Contents 

performance obligation, regardless of the outcome or effectiveness of the campaign. In addition, the Company utilizes third party invoices after the ad dollars are spent, in order to satisfy the obligation.

c.Milestones – If the contract requires milestones to be hit, then the Company satisfies the performance obligation when that milestone is completed and presented to the customer for review. As each phase of a project is complete, we consider it as a performance obligation being satisfied and transferred to the customer. At this point, the customer is invoiced the amount due based on the transaction pricing for that specific phase and/or we apply the customer deposit to recognize revenue.
d.Monthly Retainer – If the contract is a retainer for work performed, then the customer is paying the Company for its expertise and accessibility, not for a pre-defines amount of output. In this case, the obligation is satisfied at the end of the period, regardless of the amount of work effort required.
e.Hosting – Monthly recurring fees for hosting are recognized on a monthly basis, at a fixed rate. Hosting contracts are typically one-year and reviewed annually for renewal. Prices are subject to change at management discretion.

The Company generates income from four main revenue streams: data science, creative design, web development, digital marketing, and other. Each revenue stream is unique, and includes the following features:

Data Science

We analyze big data (large volume of information) to reveal patterns and trends associated with human behavior and interactions that can lead to better decisions and strategic business moves. As a result of our data science work, our clients are able to make informed and valuable decisions to positively impact their bottom lines. We classify revenue as data science that includes polling, research, modeling, data fees, consulting and reporting. Contracts are generated to assure both the Company and the client are committed to partnership and both agree to the defined terms and conditions and are typically less than one year. Transaction pricing is usually a lump sum, which is estimated by specific project requirements. The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations are met, including, when the data sciences service is performed, polling is conducted, or support hours are expended. If the data sciences service is a fixed fee retainer, then the obligation is earned at the end of the period, regardless of how much service is performed.

Creative Design

We provide branding and creative design services which set apart our clients from their competitors and establish themselves in their specific market. We believe in showcasing our client’s brand uniquely and creatively to infuse the public with curiosity to learn more. We classify revenue as creative design that includes branding, photography, copyrighting, printing, signs and interior design. Contracts are generated to assure both the company and the client are committed to partnership and both agree to the defined terms and conditions and are typically less than one year. The Company recognizes revenue when performance obligations are met, usually when creative design services obligations are complete, when the hours are recorded, designs are presented, website themes are complete, or any other criteria as mutually agreed.

Web Development

We develop websites that attract high levels of traffic for our clients. We offer our clients the expertise to manage and protect their website, and the agility to adjust their online marketing strategy as their business expands. We classify revenue as web development that includes website coding, website patch installs, ongoing development support and fixing inoperable sites. Contracts are generated to assure both the company and the client are committed to the partnership and both agree to the defined terms and conditions. Although most projects are long-term (6-8 months) in scope, we do welcome short-term projects which are invoiced as the work is completed at a specified hourly rate. In addition, we offer monthly hosting support packages, which ensures websites are functioning properly. The Company records web development revenue as earned, when the developer hours are recorded (if T&M arrangements) or when the milestones are achieved (if a milestone arrangement).

Digital Marketing

We have a reputation for providing digital marketing services that get results. Whether presenting a vibrant but simple message about our clients that will enlighten their audience or deploying an influential digital marketing political campaign across one or multiple social media platforms, our marketing strategist are poised to execute and deliver valuable marketing results to our clients. We classify revenue as digital marketing that includes ad spend, SEO management and digital ad support. Billable hours and advertising spending are estimated based on client specific needs and subject to change with client concurrence. Revenue is recognized when ads are run on one of the third-party platforms or when the hours are recorded by the digital marketing specialist, if the obligation relates to support or services.

Other

We offer services that do not fit into the other four categories but rely heavily on the “other” services to provide the entire support package for our clients. Included in this category are domain name management, account management, web hosting, client training, and partner commissions. Revenue is recognized for these services as the service is performed (such as account management or training) or during the month in which the service was provided (such as hosting, partner commissions and domain name registration).

Included in creative design and digital marketing revenues are costs that are reimbursed by our clients, including third party services, such as photographers and stylists, furniture, supplies, and the largest component, digital advertising. We have determined, based on our review, that the amounts classified as reimbursable costs should be recorded as gross (principal), due to the following factors:

-The Company is the primary obligor in the arrangement;
-We have latitude in establishing price;
-We have discretion in supplier selection; and
-The Company has credit risk

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, we included $888,181 and $1,287,636, respectively, in revenue, related to reimbursable costs.

The deferred revenue and customer deposits as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 was $1,049,301 and $1,081,570, respectively.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 (unaudited), revenue was disaggregated into the five categories as follows:

   Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 (unaudited)  Three Months Ended March 31, 2018 (unaudited)
   Third Parties  Related Parties  Total  Third Parties  Related Parties  Total

4.    LIQUIDITY AND OPERATIONS

The Company had net loss of $343,919 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and $791,369 the three months ended March 31, 2018, and net cash used in operating activities of $284,277 and $59,752, in the same periods, respectively.

While the Company expects that its capital needs in the foreseeable future may be met by cash-on-hand and projected positive cash-flow, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to generate enough positive cash flow or have sufficient capital to finance its growth and business operations, or that such capital will be available on terms that are favorable to the Company or at all. In the current financial environment, it could become difficult for the Company to obtain working capital and other business financing.  There is no assurance that the Company would be able to obtain additional working capital through the sale of its securities or from any other source.

5. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS

Parscale Creative, Inc.

On August 1, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of Parscale Creative, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Parscale Creative”). As of that date, the Company’s wholly owned operating subsidiary, Parscale Digital, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“Parscale Digital”), merged with Parscale Creative, and the name of the combined subsidiary was changed to Parscale Digital. The total purchase price of $7,945,000, was paid in the form of the issuance of ninety thousand (90,000) shares of the Company's Series D Convertible Preferred Stock, at a liquidation preference of one hundred dollars ($100) per share, plus dividend payments based on 5% of adjusted revenue of Parscale Digital. Adjusted revenue is defined as total revenue, minus digital marketing media buys. Based on the growth of the Parscale Digital, the actual amount of the dividend payments is estimated to be in the range of $850,000 and $1,300,000, over 36 months, if we achieve 0.5% to 3% monthly adjusted revenue growth. The dividend payments are recorded as a reduction to additional paid in capital. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we did not pay any dividend related to the Series D Convertible Preferred stock, and as of March 31, 2019, the accrued balance of the Series D Preferred dividend payable was $169,652. At the closing, Brad Parscale, the 100% owner of Parscale Creative, was appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company assumed net liabilities of $535,000, related to this acquisition.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the transactions were valued for accounting purposes at $7,945,000, which was the fair value of Parscale Creative at the time of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of Parscale Creative were recorded at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. The acquisition date estimated fair value of the consideration transferred and purchase price allocation consisted of the following:

Cash  $200,000 
Customer deposits and accrued expenses   (535,000)
Net tangible liabilities  $(335,000)
      
Non-compete agreements  $280,000

Issuance of series D convertible preferred stock  $7,610,000 
Net tangible liabilities   335,000 
Total purchase price  $7,945,000 
      

WebTegrity, LLC

On November 15, 2017, the Company completed the acquisition of WebTegrity. As of that date, the Company’s operating subsidiary, Parscale Digital, Inc., a Nevada corporation, merged with WebTegrity and the name of the combined subsidiary remained unchanged as Parscale Digital. On April 16, 2018, we organized WebTegrity as a Nevada corporation, and split WebTegrity from Parscale Digital. The total purchase price of $900,000, was paid in the form of the issuance of ten thousand (10,000) shares of the Company's Series E Convertible Preferred Stock, at a liquidation preference of one hundred dollars ($100) per share.

Under the purchase method of accounting, the transactions were valued for accounting purposes at $900,000, which was the fair value of WebTegrity at the time of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of WebTegrity were recorded at their respective fair values as of the date of acquisition. The acquisition date estimated fair value of the consideration transferred and purchase price allocation consisted of the following:

Total purchase price  $900,000 
      

 

Issuance of Series E Convertible Preferred Stock  $900,000 

The above Parscale Creative and WebTegrity acquisitions are based on a preliminary purchase price allocation, and include identifiable intangible assets, which were based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price required management to make significant estimates in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, especially with respect to identifiable intangible assets. These estimated fair values were based on information obtained from management of the acquired companies and historical experience and, with respect to the long-lived tangible and intangible assets, were made with the assistance of an independent valuation firm.

Parscale Media, LLC

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a purchase agreement with Brad Parscale, to purchase Parscale Media, LLC, a website hosting business, formed under the laws of Texas. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Parscale $1,000,000 in cash, upon closing the transaction, but in no event later than January 1, 2018.

On February 1, 2018, the Company entered into an amended purchase agreement which provided for the issuance of a promissory note to Mr. Parscale as consideration for the acquisition, under which the Company agreed to pay Mr. Parscale $1,000,000 in twelve equal installments, and interest of 4% on the promissory note (the “Parscale Media Note”). On November 20, 2018, the Company exchanged the remaining balance of the Parscale Media Note for an equal amount owed by Mr. Parscale to the Company. As of November 20, 2018, the balance on the Parscale Media Note was zero.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, it was determined that, due to the Company never having paid federal income taxes and having a large net operating loss (NOL), it is unlikely we will pay federal income taxes in the foreseeable future. This change in estimate resulted in the Company removing the deferred tax liability from the purchase price of Parscale Media, with a corresponding adjustment to goodwill. During the year ended December 31, 2018, this change in estimate resulted in a reduction of deferred tax liability to zero and goodwill to $500,000, or reductions of $125,000 to each.

The above Parscale Creative, WebTegrity, and Parscale Media acquisitions are based on a preliminary purchase price allocation, and include identifiable intangible assets, which were based on their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. The excess of purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The allocation of the purchase price required management to make significant estimates in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, especially with respect to identifiable intangible assets. These estimated fair values were based on information obtained from management of the acquired companies and historical experience and, with respect to the long-lived tangible and intangible assets, were made with the assistance of an independent valuation firm.

11.  STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Stock Options

On July 10, 2003, the Company adopted the Warp 9, Inc. Stock Option Plan for directors, executive officers, and employees of and key consultants to the Company. Pursuant to the now terminated plan, the Company could issue 5,000,000 shares of common stock. The plan was administered by the Company’s Board of Directors, and options granted under the plan could be either incentive options or nonqualified options. Each option was exercisable in full or in installment and at such time as designated by the Board. Notwithstanding any other provision of the plan or of any option agreement, each option expired on the date specified in the option agreement, which date was to be no later than the tenth anniversary of the date on which the option was granted (fifth anniversary in the case of an incentive option granted to a greater-than-10% stockholder). The purchase price per share of the common stock under each incentive option was to be no less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date the option was granted (110% of the fair market value in the case of a greater-than-10% stockholder). The purchase price per share of the common stock under each nonqualified option was to be specified by the Board at the time the option is granted, and could be less than, equal to or greater than the fair market value of the shares of common stock on the date such nonqualified option was granted, but was to be no less than the par value of shares of common stock. The plan provided specific language as to the termination of options granted thereunder.

The following options were issued outside of the Warp 9, Inc. Stock Option Plan:

On August 1, 2017, we granted non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock to a key employee, at a price of $0.01 per share. The stock options vest equally over a period of 36 months and expire August 1, 2022. These options allow the optionee to exercise on a cashless basis, resulting in no cash payment to the company upon exercise. If the optionee exercises on a cashless basis, then the above water value (difference between the option price and the fair market price at the time of exercise) is used to purchase shares of common stock. Under this method, the number of shares of common stock issued will be less than the number of options used to obtain those shares of common stock. On September 30, 2018, the employee exercised, on a cashless basis, 3,324,201 options, resulting in 1,233,509 shares of common stock.

On September 18, 2017, we granted non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 1,800,000 shares of our common stock to three key employees, at a price of $0.05 per share. The stock options vest equally over a period of 36 months and expire September 18, 2022. These options allow the optionee to exercise on a cashless basis, resulting in no cash payment to the company upon exercise.

On January 3, 2018, we granted non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 20,000,000 shares of our common stock to three key employees, at a price of $0.04 per share. The stock options vest equally over a period of 36 months and expire January 3, 2023. These options allow the optionee to exercise on a cashless basis, resulting in no cash payment to the company upon exercise.

The Company used the historical industry index to calculate volatility, since the Company’s stock history did not represent the expected future volatility of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of options granted during the three months ending March 31, 2019 and 2018, were determined using the Black Scholes method with the following assumptions:

   Three Months Ended  Three Months Ended
   March 31, 2019  March 31, 2018
Risk free interest rate   —      5.00%
Stock volatility factor   —      397%
Weighted average expected option life   —      5 years 
Expected dividend yield   —      none

As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the intrinsic value of the stock options was approximately $61,750 and $212,950, respectively. Stock option expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 2018 were $81,370 and $160,072, respectively.

The Black Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options, which do not have vesting restrictions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected stock price volatility. Because the Company’s employee stock options have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management’s opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

The weighted average remaining contractual life of options outstanding, as of March 31, 2019 was as follows:

Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases” Topic 842, which amends the guidance in former ASC Topic 840, Leases. The new standard increases transparency and comparability most significantly by requiring the recognition by lessees of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases longer than 12 months. Under the standard, disclosures are required to meet the objective of enabling users of financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. For lessees, leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement, over the expected term on a straight-line basis. Operating leases are recognized on the balance sheet as right-of-use assets, current operating lease

liabilities and non-current operating lease liabilities. We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in property and equipment, current liabilities, and long-term liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. 

The Company adopted the new lease guidance effective January 1, 2019 using the modified retrospective transition approach, applying the new standard to all of its leases existing at the date of initial application which is the effective date of adoption. Consequently, financial information will not be updated and the disclosures required under the new standard will not be provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. The Company has elected the practical expedient to combine lease and non-lease components as a single component. We did not elect the hindsight practical expedient which permits entities to use hindsight in determining the lease term and assessing impairment. The adoption of the lease standard did not change our previously reported consolidated statements of operations and did not result in a cumulative catch-up adjustment to opening equity. The adoption of the new guidance resulted in the recognition of ROU assets of $365,460 and lease liabilities of $365,460, as of March 31, 2019.

The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable. As such, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate of 10%, which is the rate incurred to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. In calculating the present value of the lease payments, the Company elected to utilize its incremental borrowing rate based on the remaining lease terms as of the January 1, 2019 adoption date.

Operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at the commencement date. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives and initial direct costs incurred, if any. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 years to 3 years, some of which include options to extend the lease term for up to an undetermined number years. 

Operating Leases

As a result of the WebTegrity acquisition, we assumed a lease for office space used by the WebTegrity employees, at 14603 Huebner Road, Suite 3402, San Antonio, TX 78230. The lease was executed on March 20, 2017 for a period of 36 months, commencing March 20, 2017, at a rate of $2,750 per month from April 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018, $2,950 per month from April 1, 2018 through March 31, 2019, and $3,150 per month from April 1, 2019 through March 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2019, it has been determined that the Company will not attempt to extend this lease past the March 31, 2020 expiration date. This lease does not include a residual value guarantee, nor do we expect any material exit costs. As of January 1, 2019, we determined that this lease meets the criterion to be classified as a ROU Asset and is included on the balance sheet as Right-Of-Use Assets.

On August 1, 2017, Parscale Digital signed a lease agreement with Giles-Parscale, Inc., a related party, which commenced on August 1, 2017, for approximately 8,290 square feet, at 321 Sixth Street, San Antonio, TX 78215, for $9,800 per month, plus a pro rata share of the common building expenses. The lease expires on July 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2019, it is unclear whether we will attempt to extend this lease beyond the July 31, 2022 expiration date. However, because the lease expiration is greater than twelve months, the lease liability is included on the Balance Sheet as Right-of-use lease. This lease does not include a residual value guarantee, nor do we expect any material exit costs. As of January 1, 2019, we determined that this lease meets the criterion to be classified as a ROU Asset and is included on the balance sheet as Right-Of-Use Assets.

On October 24, 2017, we executed a lease agreement for office space located at 1933 Cliff Drive, Santa Barbara, CA, commencing March 1, 2018 for a period of 36 months, at a rate of $2,795 per month, plus a pro rata share of the common area maintenance. As of September 31, 2018, the Company vacated this office space and the landlord relieved the Company of any further liability by leasing the space to another party. As of September 30, 2018, the Company moved its headquarters to 321 Sixth Street in San Antonio, Texas.

On February 12, 2018, we executed a lease agreement for office space at 1415 Park Avenue West, Denver, CO 80205, expiring August 14, 2018, at a cost of $800 per month. This lease was cancelled on June 30, 2018, at no cost to the Company.

On April 28, 2018, Data Propria entered into an agreement to lease approximately 2,073 square feet of office space located at 311 Sixth Street, San Antonio, TX 78215, for a period of twelve months, commencing May 1, 2018, at a cost of $4,000 per month, plus a pro rata share of building maintenance expenses. This lease was signed with a related party, Jill Giles, an employee of the Company. The Company will not extend this lease upon expiration on April 30, 2019, and therefore, recognizes this lease as a short-term lease under legacy GAAP and did not record the lease liability on the Balance Sheet. This lease does not include a residual value guarantee, nor do we expect any material exit costs. As of March 31, 2019, the remaining payments on this lease total $4,000.

Total operating lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 was $50,250 and $68,611, respectively. The Company is also required to pay its pro rata share of taxes, building maintenance costs, and insurance in according to the lease agreement.

On May 21, 2014, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with the landlord of our previous location at 6500 Hollister Ave., Goleta, CA, to make monthly payments on past due rent totaling $227,052. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company will make monthly payments of $350 on a reduced balance of $40,250. Upon payment of $40,250, the Company will record a gain on extinguishment of debt of $186,802. As of March 31, 2019, the Company recorded the outstanding balance under this settlement agreement as a long-term accrued expense, with the current portion of the debt recorded in accrued expenses. As of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018, the Company owed $19,950 and $21,000 on the outstanding reduced payment terms, respectively.

The Company is required to pay its pro rata share of taxes, building maintenance costs, and insurance in accordance with the operating lease agreements of Parscale Digital, WebTegrity, and Data Propria.

Finance Leases

On August 1, 2017, Parscale Digital signed a lease agreement with Parscale Strategy, a related party, for the use of office equipment and furniture. The lease provides for a term of thirty-six (36) months, at a monthly payment of $3,000, and an option to purchase all items at the end of the lease for one dollar. It is certain that the Company will exercise this purchase option. We have evaluated this lease in accordance with ASC 840-30 and determined that it meets the definition of a finance lease.

On April 24, 2019, the Company issued a convertible promissory note (the “April 2019 Note”) in the amount of up to $43,000, at which time an advance of $40,000 was received to cover operational expenses. The terms of the April 2019 Note allow the lender to convert all or part of the outstanding balance plus accrued interest, at any time after 180 days from the effective date, at a conversion price of 61% multiplied by the two lowest trading prices during the preceding 20 days. The April 2019 Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per year and matures on April 24, 2020.

On May 5, 2019, the Company issued a convertible promissory note (the “May 2019 Note”) in the amount of up to $48,500, at which time an advance of $46,500 was received to cover operational expenses. The terms of the May 2019 Note allow the lender to convert all or part of the outstanding balance plus accrued interest, at any time after 180 days from the effective date, at a conversion price of 61% multiplied by the lowest trading prices during the preceding 15 days. The May 2019 Note bears interest at a rate of 10% per year and matures on May 5, 2020.

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS 

Cautionary Statements

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes thereto as set forth in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, and the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report of form 10-Q. The Management’s Discussion and Analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements of our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Any statements that are not statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. When used, the words “believe,” “plan,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “target,” “estimate,” “expect,” and the like, and/or future-tense or conditional constructions (“will,” “may,” “could,” “should,” etc.), or similar expressions, identify certain of these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements in this quarterly report. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of several factors including, but not limited to, those noted under “Risk Factors” of the reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this quarterly report.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations, including the discussion on liquidity and capital resources, are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management re-evaluates its estimates and judgments, particularly those related to the determination of the estimated recoverable amounts of trade accounts receivable, impairment of long-lived assets, revenue recognition, and deferred tax assets. We believe the following critical accounting policies require more significant judgment and estimates used in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Among the significant judgments made by management in the preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are the following:

Revenue recognition

On January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers and all subsequent amendments to the ASU (collectively, “ASC 606”), using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed as of January 1, 2018. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with our historic accounting under Topic 605. Revenues are recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. See footnote 3 for a disclosure of our use of estimates and judgement, as it relates to revenue recognition.

Accounts receivable

The Company extends credit to its customers who are located nationwide. Accounts receivable are customer obligations due under normal trade terms. The Company performs continuing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition. Management reviews accounts receivable on a regular basis, based on contracted terms and how recently payments have been received to determine if any such amounts will potentially be uncollected. The Company includes any balances that are determined to be uncollectible in its allowance for doubtful accounts.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company 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. To determine recoverability of a long-lived asset, management evaluates whether the estimated future undiscounted net cash flows from the asset are less than its carrying amount. If impairment is indicated, the long-lived asset would be written down to fair value. Fair value is determined by an evaluation of available price information at which assets could be bought or sold, including quoted market prices, if available, or the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on reasonable and supportable assumptions.

Indefinite Lived Intangibles and Goodwill Assets 

The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC 805, “Business Combinations,” where the total purchase price is allocated to the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The purchase price is allocated using the information currently available, and may be adjusted, up to one year from acquisition date, after obtaining more information regarding, among other things, asset valuations, liabilities assumed and revisions to preliminary estimates. The purchase price in excess of the fair value of the tangible and identified intangible assets acquired less liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill.

The Company tests for indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill impairment in the fourth quarter of each year and whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value and may not be recoverable. In accordance with its policies, the Company performed a qualitative assessment of indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill at December 31, 2018 and determined there was no impairment of indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill.

Business Combinations 

The Company allocates the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible assets acquired, liabilities assumed and intangible assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired customer lists, acquired technology, and trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions

31 
 Table of Contents 

believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates. During the measurement period, which is one year from the acquisition date, we may record adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, with the corresponding offset to goodwill. Upon the conclusion of the measurement period, any subsequent adjustments are recorded to earnings.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company’s financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued liabilities are carried at cost, which approximates their fair value, due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. As of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company’s notes payable have stated borrowing rates that are consistent with those currently available to the Company and, accordingly, the Company believes the carrying value of these debt instruments approximates their fair value.

Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability, between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements assume that the asset or liability is (1) exchanged in an orderly manner, (2) the exchange is in the principal market for that asset or liability, and (3) the market participants are independent, knowledgeable, able and willing to transact an exchange. Fair value accounting and reporting establishes a framework for measuring fair value by creating a hierarchy for observable independent market inputs and unobservable market assumptions and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Considerable judgment is required to interpret the market data used to develop fair value estimates. As such, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that could be realized in a current exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methods could have a material effect on the estimated fair value.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our significant off-balance sheet transactions include commitments associated with non-cancelable operating leases, which includes office leases for Data Propria and WebTegrity. See footnote 14 for disclosure of operating leases.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management reviewed accounting pronouncements issued during the quarter ended March 31, 2019, and the following pronouncements were adopted during the period.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“ASC 842”). Under ASC 842, lessees are recognized as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases, other than those that meet the definition of a short-term lease. For income statement purposes, leases are classified as either operating or finance. Operating leases are expensed on a straight-line basis, similar to current operating leases, while finance leases result in a front-loaded pattern, similar to current capital leases. The Company adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019 and elected certain available transitional practical expedients.

Management reviewed accounting pronouncements issued during the year ended December 31, 2018, and the following pronouncements were adopted during the period.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods therein. The Company follows paragraph 606 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for revenue recognition and ASU 2014-09, adopting the pronouncements on January 1, 2018. The company considers revenue realized or realizable and earned when services are performed to such a degree that the performed service is delivered or deliverable to the client, or when a tangible item, such as interior décor or signage, is delivered to the client. Since the Company was already recognizing revenue in a manner consistent with paragraph 606 of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, there was no material impact on prior year results.

ASU 2014-09 supersedes existing guidance on revenue recognition with a five-step model for recognizing and measuring revenue from contracts with customers. The objective of the new standard is to provide a single, comprehensive revenue recognition model for all contracts with customers to improve comparability within industries, across industries, and across capital markets. The underlying principle is that an entity will recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers at an amount that the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance also requires a number of disclosures regarding the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and the related cash flows. The guidance can be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented (full retrospective method) or retrospectively with a cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings for initial application of the guidance at the date of initial adoption (modified retrospective method). The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts that were not completed or substantially completed as of January 1, 2018. The timing and measurement of revenue recognition under the new standard is not materially different than under the old standard. The adoption of the new standard had an immaterial impact on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13 (ASU 2016-13) "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" which requires the measurement and recognition of expected credit losses for financial assets held at amortized cost. ASU 2016-13 replaces the existing incurred loss impairment model with an expected loss methodology, which will result in more timely recognition of credit losses. ASU 2016-13 is effective for annual reporting periods, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on our consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The amendments in this ASU simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test and eliminating the requirement for a reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment. Instead, under this pronouncement, an entity would perform its annual, or interim, goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and would recognize an impairment change for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized is not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. In addition, income tax effects will be considered, if applicable. This ASU is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2019, compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2018.

REVENUE

Total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased by $223,702 to $2,653,007, compared to $2,876,709 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease was primarily due to a reduction in revenue from a related party, partially offset by revenue increases from third parties.

SALARIES AND OUTSIDE SERVICES

Salaries and outside services for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased by $332,004 to $1,151,880, compared to $1,483,884 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease was primarily due to a reduction of salary and paid time off expenses. Beginning January 1, 2019, the Company established a new paid time off policy, by which the company eliminated all accrued paid time off, reducing December 31, 2018 balances to zero.

SELLING, GENERAL, AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general, and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased by $469,453 to $1,342,187 compared to $1,811,640 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in operating expenses, travel, payroll taxes, and rent.

STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

Stock based compensation expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 decreased by $78,702 to $81,370, compared to $160,072 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease was due to several stock option issuances being fully expensed in the current period.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION

Depreciation and amortization expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2019 increased by $1,538 to $254,931, compared to $253,393 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase was primarily due to the purchase of additional fixed assets.

OTHER INCOME AND EXPENSE

Total other income and expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 increased by $77,479 to net other expense of $166,559 compared to net other expense of $89,080 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in net other expense was primarily due to the utilization of a secured borrowing arrangement, resulting in higher interest expense.

NET LOSS

The consolidated net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $343,919, compared to the consolidated net loss of $791,369 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease in net loss for the period was primarily due to the reduction of operating expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company had a net working capital deficit (i.e. the difference between current assets and current liabilities) of ($4,593,691) at March 31, 2019 compared to a net working capital deficit of ($4,146,991) at fiscal year ended December 31, 2018.  

Cash flow used in operating activities was $284,277 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to cash flow provided by operating activities of $59,752 for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The increase in cash flow used in operating activities of $344,029 was primarily due to decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, partially offset by decreases in accounts receivable and deferred taxes.

Cash flow used in investing activities was $2,104 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to cash flow used in investing activities of $13,800 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The decrease in cash flow used in investing activities of $11,696 was primarily due to a reduction in the purchase of computers, partially offset by the reduction of fixed asset disposals.

Cash flow provided by financing activities was $395,165 for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to cash flow used in financing activities of $101,114 for the three months ended March 31, 2018.  The increase in cash flow provided by financing activities of $496,279 was due to additional borrowings, partially offset by debt repayments and dividends paid.

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. Significant factors in the management of liquidity are funds generated by operations, levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable and capital expenditures.

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets and liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The accompanying consolidated Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Our independent auditors, in their report on our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon, among other things, additional cash infusion. Management believes that the additional cash needed to meet our obligations as they become due, and which will allow the development of our core business operations, will be received through investments in the Company made by our existing shareholders, prospective new investors and future revenue generated by our operations.

As a result of the recent economic recession, and the continuing economic uncertainty, it has been difficult for companies to obtain equity or debt financing. While the credit markets have improved over the last year, it remains difficult for smaller companies to obtain financing on reasonable terms.

Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or equity-backed securities may dilute current stockholders’ ownership percentages and could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity securities. The terms of the securities issued by us in future capital transactions may be more favorable to new investors and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities which may have a further dilutive effect.

Furthermore, any additional debt or equity or other financing that we may need may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain required additional capital, we may have to curtail our growth plans or cut back on existing business. Further, we may not be able to continue operations if we do not generate sufficient revenues from operations.

We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our reported financial results.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Our significant off-balance sheet transactions include commitments associated with non-cancelable operating leases, which includes office leases for Data Propria and WebTegrity. See footnote 14 for disclosure of operating leases.

Item 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not Applicable.

Item 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Management, with the participation of the Company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), as of the end of the period covered by this report to ensure

34 
 Table of Contents 

that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that, as of March 31, 2019, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the following material weaknesses:

1. lack of segregation of duties; and

2. failure to implement accounting controls of acquired businesses.

To the extent reasonably possible given our limited resources, we intend to take measures to cure the aforementioned weaknesses.

Our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal controls will prevent all error or 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.  Due to 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, have been detected. 

To address the material weaknesses, we performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures in an effort to ensure our consolidated Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  Accordingly, management believes that the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

No Attestation Report by Independent Registered Accountant

The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2019 has not been audited by our independent registered public accounting firm by virtue of our exemption from such requirement as a smaller reporting company.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company’s last fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls

The Company’s management does not expect that its disclosure controls or its internal control over financial reporting will prevent or detect all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. 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. Further, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or 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. Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part on 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. Projections of any evaluation of controls effectiveness to future periods are subject to risks. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies or procedures.
