NOTES
TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
NOTE
1 DESCRIPTION
OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
BoomJ,
Inc. (the “Company”) operates a web site www.BOOMj.com
through
its subsidiary,
which
the Company believes is America’s first social, political, financial e-commerce
and lifestyle network focused on providing diversified media, compelling content
and advertising targeting persons commonly referred to as
Baby
Boomers and Generation Jones. The Company also operates the web site,
LocalAdLink, a newly formed company owned 100% by Boomj, Inc. LocalAdLink
is a local search and advertising platform that networks high volume websites
to
allow local advertisers to increase revenues and brand identity.
The
Company formerly known as Reel Estate Services, Inc. (“RES”) was incorporated in
Nevada on January 12, 2006. At the date of recapitalization on December 28,
2007, RES was a public shell company, defined as an inactive, publicly quoted
company with nominal assets and liabilities.
On
December 28, 2007, RES entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
(the
“Reorganization Agreement”), with Time Lending Sub, Inc., a newly-formed Nevada
corporation (hereinafter “RES Sub”) and Linda Rutter, the owner of 1,500,000
shares of RES Common Stock and the sole Director and officer of RES (the
“Principal”), and BOOMj.com, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“BOOMj.com”), pursuant
to which RES Sub agreed to merge with and into BOOMj.com (the “Merger”). In
connection with the Merger, RES agreed to issue its shares of common stock,
at a
rate of 2.02 shares of RES common stock for each share of BOOMj.com common
stock, in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding stock of BOOMj.com.
In
addition, prior to the Merger, RES agreed to cancel 1,500,000 shares held by
Linda Rutter, an officer and director of RES, of the 3,150,000 issued and
outstanding shares of RES. The cancellation was performed in two tranches,
in
exchange for $125,000 cash payment at the closing of the Merger, 750,000 shares
of Principal’s RES Common Stock were cancelled upon receipt of the payment; the
remaining 750,000 shares of Principal’s RES Common Stock were cancelled upon
payment to Principal of $125,000 on January 31, 2008. All share amounts
presented in these financial statements, unless otherwise noted, reflect the
recapitalization.
Upon
the
closing of the Merger, the Principal received a five-year warrant to purchase
825,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.93 per
share.
Prior
to
the Merger,
BOOMj.com had 17,058,448 shares of common stock (“BOOM Common Stock”)
outstanding, which were exchanged for 34,458,067 shares of RES Common Stock
through RES Sub. All warrants that were issued by BOOMj.com prior to the Merger
remained outstanding as of December 31, 2007. However, pursuant to the terms
of
those warrants, the warrants were supposed to be exchanged for warrants to
purchase the Company’s common stock. During the fiscal quarter ended June 30,
2008, the Company has issued new replacement warrants and has retrieved and
canceled the old BOOMj.com warrants.
Subsequent
to the Merger,
RES
changed its name to BoomJ, Inc.
In
the
Reorganization Agreement, concurrent with the closing of the transaction, (a)
all current officers of RES resigned from their positions with RES and (b)
BOOMj.com’s officers were appointed by the then
existing
members of the Board of Directors of RES
to
replace the former RES officers,
and (c)
the
members of the RES board of directors appointed the members
of
BOOMj.com’s current board of directors of
the
Company
and
thereafter resigned.
RES
is
the legal acquirer of
BOOMj.com. However,
since RES was a public shell company with a nominal amount of net assets, the
Merger has been treated as a recapitalization of BOOMj.com and an acquisition
of
the assets and liabilities of RES by BOOMj.com. Although
RES was
the legal acquirer in the Merger, BOOMj.com was the accounting acquirer since
its shareholder ended up owning a majority of the outstanding common shares
of
RES. Therefore, at the date of the Merger the historical financial statements
of
BOOMj.com became those of RES for the period prior to the Merger. Subsequent
to
the Merger, the consolidated financial statements include both entities. Unless
otherwise specified, all references to the Company prior to the Merger refer
to
BOOMj.com, and all references to the Company after the Merger refer to BOOMj,
Inc. and BOOMj.com on a consolidated basis.
The
Company presently maintains its corporate office in Henderson, Nevada, and
has
its marketing and content departments located in an office in Irvine,
California.

NOTE
2 SUMMARY
OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis
of Presentation
The
condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the
periods ended September 30, 2008 included herein have been prepared by
management and are unaudited. Such condensed financial statements reflect,
in
the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the
financial position and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated
and in order to make the financial statements not misleading. All such
adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These interim results are not
necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent period or for the
fiscal year ending December 31, 2008.
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed
financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the
rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These condensed
consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2007 in the Form 10-KSB, filed with the SEC on April 4, 2008.
In
the
first quarter of 2008, the Company was no longer considered in the development
stage Company under statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 7 due to
the
level of revenues obtained in 2008.
On
January 1, 2008, the Company adopted FSP EITF 00-19-2 “Accounting for
Registration Payment Arrangements”.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its
wholly owned subsidiary: Local Ad Link, Inc. All significant intercompany
transactions and accounts have been eliminated upon consolidation.
NOTE
3 PROPERTY
AND EQUIPMENT
Property
and equipment at September 30, 2008 consisted of the following:
Office

|
$

Depreciation
expense for the three months and nine months periods ended September 30, 2008
were $47,762 and $134,343, respectively compared to $38,249 and $98,519 for
the
same periods in 2007.
NOTE

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share
Basic
and
diluted net loss per common share is calculated in accordance with the Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128), “Earnings per share.”
Basic net loss per common share is based upon the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding during the period. Dilution is computed by applying
the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed
to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance,
if
later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock
at
the average market price during the period. However, shares associated with
convertible debt and stock warrants are not included because the inclusion
would
be anti-dilutive (i.e. reduce the net loss per common share). The total number
of such shares excluded from the diluted net loss per common share presentation
was 14,634,396 at September 30, 2008.
NOTE
5 OTHER
ASSETS
Other
assets primarily consisted of rent and utility deposits of $17,753 and $3,075
for the Company's Nevada and Irvine offices respectively, at September 30,
2008.
Also included in this line item is $33,387 for credit card reserves and $9,456
in vendor deposits.

In
December 2006, Boomj.com, Inc. entered into a contract with Corgenic, Inc for
the development of the website in exchange for 500,000 shares of Boomj.com,
Inc.’s Series A Convertible 10% Cumulative Preferred Stock ($0.001 par value) at
$0.50 per share with piggyback registration rights. Initially there were 400,000
shares issued to Corgenic, Inc. with 100,000 retained until after the completion
of testing of the website. The obligation to issue the additional shares is
reported in accrued expenses as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. To date, this
liability remains on the balance sheet because the completion of this portion
of
the website has not been completed to the Company’s satisfaction.

at 12% per annum payable in cash monthly from the date of issuance until the
note is paid. The loan
was
secured by a lien on all of the assets of BOOMj.com. As consideration for making
the loan,
the
Company delivered to Lender (a) an origination fee and reimbursement of Lender’s
out of pocket costs and expenses in the amount of $19,600, and (b) 404,000
shares (as
adjusted by the Merger) of
the
Company’s
common
stock. This Note was
guaranteed personally by Robert McNulty, Chairman of both the Company and
BOOMj.com. On January 18, 2008 this Promissory Note was modified to extend
the
term of this Note to the earlier of three months from the modification date
or
the receipt by the Company
of the
first $2,000,000 in connection with Company’s
anticipated private placement of its common stock. As a condition precedent
to
modification, the Company delivered to Lender (a) an origination fee in the
amount of $20,000, and (b) 300,000 additional
shares
of
the Company’s
common stock (see Note 9). On April 18, 2008 the Company entered into a Second
Modification Agreement and received an option to extend the term of $350,000
of
this Note to August 1, 2008 with $150,000 maturing on April 30, 2008 for a
fee
of $100,000. The Company did not exercise this option, thus did not pay the
$100,000 option fee. As a condition precedent to the April 18, 2008 modification
the Company delivered to Lender (a) an origination fee in the amount of $25,000,
and (b) 100,000 additional
shares
of
the Company’s
common stock. During May
2008,
the
Company asked the Lender for an extension until May 16,
2008
through
two modification agreements and the payment of two $5,000 payments and prorated
interest on the note. Centurion also has piggyback registration rights
associated with the common stock they received. On
June 23,
2008 Centurion Credit Resources entered a judgment against the Company and
Mr.
McNulty
for the
entire principal amount, plus interest. On July 9, 2008, the Company satisfied
the entire judgment by paying in full the
$500,000 note balance plus accrued interest of $7,553.

On
December 24, 2007 the Company issued a short term Promissory Note to Linlithgow
Holdings, LLC (a
related party) in
exchange for $25,000. The term of this Note was for thirty days from the
issuance with provisions to pay interest at 12%, in cash from the date of
issuance until the Note is paid. This Note was paid in full (including the
$304
interest) in January 2008.
On
March
21, 2008 the Company issued a 365-day 12% Convertible Note to Carole Harder,
an
accredited investor in exchange for $140,000. In connection with the note,
the
Company issued to the investor a five-year
warrant
to purchase 200,000 shares of our common stock exercisable at $0.93 per share.
This warrant was valued using the Black-Scholes method at
$0.136
per share, resulting in a total value of $27,288 assuming a fair value per
share
of $0.30, risk-free interest rate of 2.50% and 83% volatility index. In addition
there is a conversion
option to exchange the amount outstanding into the shares of the Company’s
common stock. We
allocated the proceeds from the issuance of this note and the warrants based
on
the proportional fair value for each item. Consequently, we recorded a discount
of $22,837 on the note, which is being amortized over the term of the note
using
the effective interest method with an effective interest rate of approximately
25%.
On December 28, 2007, RES raised $500,000 in a private offering to accredited investors of its 12% secured convertible one-year promissory notes. These securities have a voluntary conversion feature to convert into a unit from a contemplated offering, each unit comprised of (i) one share of stock at $0.70 per unit and (ii) one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $0.93 per share. In addition, on December 28, 2007, the Company issued warrants to the placement agent to purchase 71,429 shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.93 per share. The warrant vested immediately and expires in five years. It was valued by the Company at $12,853. Additional promissory notes in conjunction with this same offering were sold by the Company on January 25, 2008 and February 8, 2008 for $1,230,000 and $550,000, respectively. The promissory notes mature on March 31, 2009. The purchasers of the January and February 2008 promissory notes also received warrants to purchase 3,257,143 shares of our common stock exercisable at $0.93 per share expiring in 2013, which was valued using the Black-Scholes method at $0.177 per share. This resulted in a total value of $577,769 assuming a fair value per share of $0.30, risk-free interest rate range of 3.25% to 5.25% based on the note issuance and 100% volatility index. Consequently, we recorded a discount of $460,952 on the notes, which is being amortized over the term of these notes using the effective interest method with an effective interest rate between 26% and 27%. In addition, on January 25, 2008 and February 8, 2008, the Company issued warrants to the placement agent to purchase 175,714 and 78,571 respectively, shares of its common stock at an exercise price of $0.93 per share. The warrant vested immediately and expires in five years. These warrants were valued by the Company at $44,882. The Company has also granted, to these investors, a security interest in all its assets.
In
addition, on July 7, July 15, and August 5, 2008, Boomj raised $1,175,000,
$350,000, and $500,000, respectively, in a private offering from accredited
investors. The securities sold by the Company consisted of its 12% secured
convertible promissory notes and warrants to purchase 2,892,858 shares of the
Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.93 per share. The convertible
notes are convertible at a price of $0.70 per share, are secured by a lien
on
the Company’s assets and on the assets of Boomj.com, Inc., and mature on July
31, 2009. The warrants were valued using the Black-Scholes method at $[0.767]
per share. This resulted in a total value of $2,218,822 assuming a fair value
per share of $1.00, risk-free interest rate range of 3.32% based on the note
issuance and 100% volatility index. Under EITF 00-27 and APB No. 14, we
allocated the proceeds from issuance of these notes and warrants based on the
proportional fair value for each item. Consequently, we recorded a discount
of
$1,058,438 on the notes, which is being amortized over the term of these notes
using the effective interest rate method
A
beneficial conversion discount was also recorded on these convertible notes
since these convertible notes were convertible into shares of common stock
at an
effective conversion price lower than the fair value of the common stock share
price on the note issuance dates. The beneficial conversion amount was limited
to the portion of the cash proceeds allocated to those convertible notes. As
a
result, those convertible notes were recorded with additional discounts in
the
total amount of $966,563.
The
combined value of the note discount and discount related to the beneficial
conversion feature on the convertible notes is being amortized over the term
of
the respective convertible note using the effective interest method. The
amortization of the discounts was recorded as interest expense under Emerging
Issues Task Force (“EITF 00-27”) No.
00-27 “Application
of Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instruments”.
Since the
discounts represent 100% of the loan proceeds from these notes, the effective
periodic interest rate for these notes ranges from between 1,185% and 1,576%.
As
a result, the majority of the quarterly amortization expense will be incurred
at
the end of the term of the note. See the table below for the timing and
approximate amounts of the amortization expense. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2008, we recorded interest expense of $397,352 related to
amortization of the discounts. We also recorded an additional interest expense
of $296,622, which was for the stated interest rate and accrued as of September
30, 2008.

The
Company also issued warrants to the placement agent to purchase 289,286 shares
of its common stock at an exercise price
of
$0.93 per share. The warrant vested immediately and expires in five years.
These
warrants were valued by the Company at $831,872 and were valued using the
Black-Scholes method.
In
addition to the above terms of its 12% secured
convertible
promissory
notes, the Company in January and February 2008, granted to the note-holders
“piggyback” registration rights with respect to the shares of Common Stock
issued or issuable under those notes and warrants.
The
Company also agreed with the note-holders who invested in January and February
2008 that in the event that all of the shares underlying their warrants have
not
otherwise been included in
a
registration statement filed
by
the
Company
with the
SEC on or prior to May 1, 2008, other than for certain specified
reasons,
then,
as partial relief for the damages to the investors,
the
Company shall pay to the noteholders
an
amount in cash equal to one percent (1.0%) of the original cash consideration
invested by the noteholders
for each
30 day period during which the registration statement is not effective. Since
a
registration statement was not filed by June 30, 2008, the Company accrued
$45,000. This was reported in accrued expenses at June 30, 2008 and remains
at
September 30, 2008. During the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008, 2008
this registration obligation and the requirement to pay penalties was waived
by
the majority of noteholders.
On
May
29, 2008, one of the note-holders from the January 2008 investment converted
its
$25,000 note and accrued interest of $1,028 into shares 37,182 shares of the
Company’s $0.001 par value common stock per the terms of the relative note.
During
August 2008, the Company paid off a zero coupon note to one of its investors
of
$110,000 which $95,000 represented cash received from the prior quarter. In
September 2008 the Company received $50,000 from an accredited investor as
a 90
day zero coupon note in which $55,000 will be due in December 2008.
During
the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2008, the Company entered into several short
term (ninety-day) unsecured, 12% promissory notes with certain accredited
investors for a total of $ 1,508,232. Along with these notes, the Company issued
warrants to all note holders to purchase 754,116 shares of common stock
exercisable at $0.70 per share expiring in 2013, which was valued using the
Black-Scholes method at $0.192 per share. This resulted in a Black-Scholes
value
of $144,516 assuming a fair value per share of $0.30, risk-free interest rate
of
3.32% and a 100% volatility index. Consequently, the Company recorded a discount
of $131,865 on the notes, based on the relative fair value of the warrants,
which is being amortized over the term of these notes. During the quarter ended
September 30, 2008, these notes of $1,508,232 plus interest accrued of $36,598
were converted into 544,830 shares of common stock. On August 22, 2008 the
Company issued 327,126 shares of the Company’s common stock to another one of
our placement agents as part of their commission in connection with this
convertible note private placement. In accordance with an agreement with the
placement agent, the number of shares were determined by converting the cost
of
services to common stock at $.70 per share. However, at the time of settlement,
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the company used
the trading price of the stock, which ranged between $2.24 and $3.27 per share,
to convert the liability. Since the Company initially recorded an expense of
approximately $325000 for these services, this settlement resulted in additional
expense of $583,893. In addition this same placement agent was paid cash
commission and fees of $68,300 during the three months ending September 30,
2008.
-11-
During
the third quarter ended September 30, 2008, the Company issued short term
(ninety-day) unsecured, 12% promissory notes with four (4) accredited investors
for a total of $170,000. Along with these notes, the Company issued warrants
to
note holders to purchase 57,500 shares of common stock exercisable at $0.70
per
share expiring in 2013, which was valued using the Black-Scholes method at
$0.39
per share. This resulted in a Black-Scholes value of $32,000 assuming a market
price per share of $1.00, risk-free interest rate of 3.32% and a 100% volatility
index. Consequently, the Company recorded a discount of $64,857 on the notes,
based on the relative fair value of the warrants, which is being amortized
over
the term of these notes. These notes also contain a conversion feature in which
the holder may convert their respective principal and accrued interest into
shares of the Company’s $0.001 par value common stock at $1.00 per share. During
the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2008; $90,000 of principal from the
notes
were converted into 90,000 shares of common stock and accrued interest of $770
was converted into 770 shares of common stock.
The
Company recorded as interest expense for the three months and nine months
periods ended September 30, 2008, $1,267,046 and $2,378,556 compared to $3,016
and $5,179 for the same periods in 2007. Also included in interest expense
is
the amortization of $1,125,548 and $2,018,131 of loan origination fees
associated with these notes for the three and nine month period ended September
30, 2008, respectively.
NOTE 8 COMMITMENTS
and CONTINGENCIES
Operating
Lease
The
Company leases certain office space, under operating leases which generally
require the Company to pay taxes, insurance and maintenance expenses related
to
the leased property. The leases for office space have lease extension renewal
options for an added two to three years at fair market rent values. The Company
believes that in the normal course of business, leases will be renewed or
replaced by other leases. In December 2007 the Company entered into a four
year
lease for 4,560 square feet in Henderson, Nevada which houses its corporate
office. On May 1, 2008 the Company relocated its Orange County office to Irvine,
California. The Irvine lease is for a twelve month period for approximately
2,042 square feet of office space. The lease in Irvine houses the Company’s

which includes the leases above and sundry month to month rental expenditures
was $54,371 and $164,643 for the three and nine month period ended September
30,

On

another one of our placement agents as part of their commission in connection
with this convertible note private placement. In accordance with an agreement
with the placement agent, the number of shares were determined by converting

cost of services to common stock at $.70 per share. However, at the time of
settlement, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the
company used the trading price of the stock, which ranged between $2.24 and

ending September 30, 2008.
On
September 26, 2008 the Company issued 50,400 shares of the Company’s common
stock to a placement agent for settlement of a liability incurred in a prior
period. In accordance with an agreement with this placement agent the number
of
shares was determined by converting the cost of the services to common stock
at
$.70 per share. However, in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, the Company used the trading price of the stock on the settlement
date, which was $2.50 per share, to record the expense related to this
liability. Since $15,000 was recorded as expense in a previous period, this
resulted in additional expense of $111,000 in the quarter ended September 30,

The
chart above includes in the outstanding December 31, 2007
balance
warrants to purchase BOOMj.com common stock. The BOOMj.com warrants
to
purchase common stock should have been exchanged for warrants of
the
Company. On June 28, 2008, the Company issued replacement warrants
for the
BOOMj.com warrants. The outstanding warrants as of September 30,
2008,
therefore, include the warrants issued to replace the
warrants previously issued by Boomj.com, Inc.,
which new warrants were issued at a rate of 2.02 shares of
the Company common
stock
for each warrant share of BOOMj.com.
The Company has reserved a sufficient number of shares of authorized
common stock for issuance upon exercise of the outstanding warrants.

NOTE 10 SUPPLEMENTAL
DISCLOSURES OF CASH FLOWS (not described elsewhere)
The
Company prepares its statements of cash flows using the indirect method as
defined under the Financial Accounting Standard No. 95. The Company paid $5,615
and 40,069 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008 for interest.
The Company had zero payments for income tax during the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008. As of September 30, 2008, prepaid loan fees included
$973,013 (net of amortization) of debt related fees, which were paid by issuing
common stock and warrants.
NOTE 11 GOING
CONCERN
Cash
and
cash equivalents at September 30, 2008 were $28,209. Since we have had only
limited operations thus far, the majority of our capital resources have been
derived through the sale of debt and equity securities. No assurance can be
made
that we will have access to capital markets in the future, or that financing
will be available on acceptable terms to satisfy our future and on-going cash
requirements that we need to implement our business strategies. Our inability
to
access the capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could have a material
adverse affect on our results of operations and financial condition, and could
severely threaten our ability to continue as a going concern.
As
shown
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we incurred a loss of
$
4,032,056 and $8,987,304 for the three and nine month period ended September
30,
2008, respectively. Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by
$2,885,736 at September 30, 2008 and negative cash flow from operating
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $5,590,315. These
factors, and our inability to meet our obligations from current operations,
and
the need to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives, create a
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We
currently do not have sufficient funds on hand to fund our anticipated negative
cash flow until we reach our projected break-even level of operations. We do
not
have any bank credit lines. Accordingly, we will have to obtain additional
funding in the near future in order to continue our operations until our
revenues are sufficient to fund our operating expenses. Although we
have
again re-commenced our on-line e-commerce business and now are again
generating revenues from that
line
of our business,
and we
have recently implemented a new business line in local advertising
(LocalAdLink), we do not anticipate that we will generate sufficient cash from
operations to fund our working capital needs for at least another six months.
Accordingly, we intend to continue to seek additional financing from various
sources, including from the sale of debt or equity securities. We have not
yet
identified, and cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain any additional
funding from either of these sources, or that the terms under which we may
be
able to obtain such funding will be beneficial to us. If we do not obtain
sufficient additional funds in the near future, we will have to suspend some
of
our operations, further scale down our current and proposed future operations
or, if those actions are not sufficient, terminate our operations.
All
of
the convertible notes that we have issued recently in order to fund our working
capital needs mature within the next 12 months. Accordingly, in addition to
having to raise funds to continue to operate, we also will have to raise funds
to repay these convertible notes (to the extent that such notes are not
converted by the holders). As of September 30, 2008, the total amount of our
short-term borrowings was $4,500,000. Most of the convertible notes that we
issued are secured by a lien on certain of our assets and/or the assets of
our
subsidiary. Therefore, in the event that we fail to repay these secured
promissory notes as they mature, we will be at risk of losing our assets through
foreclosure of our assets. Accordingly, a default under the secured convertible
notes could result in the loss of our assets and the termination of our
operations.
Management
is taking steps to raise additional funds
to address its operating and financial cash requirements to continue operations
in the next twelve months. Management has devoted a significant amount of
time in the raising of capital from additional debt and equity
financing.

CORPORATE
HISTORY AND PLAN OF OPERATIONS
Plan
of Operations
This
company, formerly known as Reel Estate Services Inc., was incorporated in Nevada
as a development stage company on January 12, 2006 to create a web-based service
that lists properties across the globe that are available for rental and/or
use
by film and television companies as filming locations. We
never
earned any revenue from our former Reel Estate Services internet
site,
and in
September 2007 prior management terminated those operations.
On
December 28, 2007 Reel Estate Services, Inc. acquired BoomJ.com, Inc. through
a
reorganization (the “Reorganization”) in which it issued 34,458,067 shares of
common stock to the former shareholders of BoomJ.com, Inc. As a result of this
Reorganization, the former shareholders of Boomj.com, Inc. acquired
a
majority ownership and
control over
Reel
Estate Services, Inc.
BoomJ.com,
Inc. is now our wholly-owned subsidiary, although from an historical perspective
it was deemed to have been the accounting acquirer in the transaction and the
survivor of the Reorganization. Accordingly, prior to December 28, 2007 the
historical financial statements of BoomJ.com, Inc. have become our historical
financial statements. Subsequent to December 28, 2007 the consolidated
operations of both entities are included in our financial statements. BoomJ.com,
Inc. itself was incorporated on November 14, 2006.

Results
of Operations
We
reported a net loss of $4,032,056 and $8,987,304 for the three and nine months
ended September 30, 2008 compared to net losses of $1,517,588 and $3,182,685
reported in 2007. As more fully explained in "Operating Expenses" below, the
new
losses in 2008 were principally attributable to increases in operating costs,
interest from debt, the issuance of warrants, and to the delay in certain
revenue generation activities.
Revenues
Our
goal
is to generate revenues from (i) the sale of various products to our website
users (our e-commerce operations) and (ii) both national and local advertising
fees. Revenue for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2008
was
$204,810 and $1,025,023 compared to $60,862 and $61,900 for the three and nine
month period ended September 30, 2007. During the three month period ended
March
31, 2008, we commenced implementing our on-line e-commerce operations and ramped
up our operations based on the assumption that we would complete our $6,000,000
private placement of securities in January 2008. Our initial sales efforts
resulted in over $761,000 of sales during the quarter ended March 31, 2008.
However, we did not raise $6,000,000 from the sales of convertible promissory
notes (we received $550,000 from the sale of these convertible promissory notes
on February 8, 2008 and did not receive any further funding from that private
placement during that period). As a result, because we did not receive the
anticipated and budgeted funds, we were unable to pay our vendors for our
on-line products and, therefore, were forced to cease most of our on-line
e-commerce sales activities. As a result, sales decreased from $761,000 in
the
first fiscal quarter, to only $59,000 in the second fiscal quarter. During
the
third fiscal quarter, we raised $2,025,000 of additional funds and commenced
our
e-commerce operations again. Although the foregoing amount is not sufficient
to
operate our e-commerce business as planned, we were nevertheless able to
generate $205,000 of e-commerce sales during the fiscal quarter ended September
30, 2008. At the end of September 2008, we launched our new local advertising
operations (LocalAdLink). Revenues from this local advertising business began
in
the fourth quarter and, accordingly, are not reflected in the revenues for
the
period ended September 30, 2008. Now that we have resumed our e-commerce
operations and began our local advertising business, we anticipate that our
revenues will be significantly higher in future fiscal quarters. During the
first three quarters of 2007, we were still establishing our on-line business
and, accordingly, did not have significant revenues.
During
the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2008, the cost of products
sold was $165,630 and $1,050,113, respectively. This compares to $44,137 and
$45,129 during the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2007. Since
we generated much lower revenues during the same fiscal quarter last year,
we
incurred significantly lower cost of products sold in the 2007 period. Cost
of
products sold exceeded our revenues for the nine month period ending September
30, 2008 as part of our initial roll-out strategy for our new website and our
e-commerce platform, along with the recognizing a provision for point reward
system of approximately $19,957 during the second and third quarter. In order
to
introduce our new e-commerce business to users of our website, we lowered our
gross margins to approximately 2% (significantly lower than the margin we expect
to receive in the future) and offered free shipping as an inducement to new
users.
Operating
Expenses
Selling,
general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the three and nine month
periods ended September 30, 2008 were $ $2,261,636 and$5,205,252, respectively.
This is an increase of $1,320,545 and $3,188,017 in SG&A expenses from the
$941,091 and $2,017,236 reported for the three and nine month period ended
September 30, 2007 and is attributable to stock granted for settlement of debt
of $963,822 in non cash expenses, advertising costs incurred in launching our
website, increases in administrative, technical and marketing personnel and
related payroll costs, and an increase in travel related costs. Revenues for
the
current fiscal year have not matched our expectations due to, among other
factors, our lack of financing. Accordingly, in order to reduce our operating
expenses, until our revenues increase to the levels we expect, effective as
of
October 2008, we have taken steps to reduce our SG&A expenses, including
reducing our workforce by Fourteen (14) employees and asking our executive
officers to accrue their salaries. In addition, we intend to significantly
reduce our advertising expenses in the near term. Accordingly, in the short
term, SG&A expeses are expected to be less than the expenses incurred in the
last fiscal quarter. However, SG&A may increase again in the future as our
operations continue to increase.
Professional
fees for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2008 were $495,219
and $1,244,527, respectively. This is a decrease of $57,181 in professional
fees
from the $552,400 for the three month period ended September, 2007 and an
increase of $163,871 from the $1,080,656 reported for the nine month period
ended September, 2007. The largest component of professional fees presented
in
the third quarter consists of services rendered for IT support services realized
from one our vendors, along with legal and accounting fees associated with
obtaining debt financing. The largest component last year of professional fees
was due to the establishment of an advisory board and due to other consulting
services to enhance our website marketing and contractual services
infrastructure and the costs associated with outsourcing some of our marketing
and promotional activities.
-18-
Depreciation
expense for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2008 was $47,762
and $134,343, respectively. This reflects an increase of $9,513 and $35,824
in
depreciation expense from the $38,249 and $98,519 reported for the three and
nine month period ended September 30, 2007. This increase in expense is
attributable to the amortization of the asset additions.
Interest
expense for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2008 was$
1,267,047 and $2,378,556, respectively, compared to $3,016 and $ 5,179 reported
for the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2007. In addition,
interest expenses also includes non-cash expenses related to the value of
warrants issued to investors who invested in our convertible notes and discounts
from beneficial conversion features. Our increase in interest expense is due
to
loan fees and loan discount amortization expenses of $1,125,548
and $2,018,131 related to our promissory notes
for the
three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources
Cash
and
cash equivalents at September 30, 2008 were $28,209. Since we have had only
limited operations thus far, the majority of our capital resources have been
derived through the sale of debt and equity securities. No assurance can be
made
that we will have access to capital markets in the future, or that financing
will be available on acceptable terms to satisfy our future and on-going cash
requirements that we need to implement our business strategies. Our inability
to
access the capital markets or obtain acceptable financing could have a material
adverse affect on our results of operations and financial condition, and could
severely threaten our ability to continue as a going concern.
As
shown
in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we incurred a loss of
$
4,032,056 and $8,987,304 for the three and nine month period ended September
30,
2008, respectively. Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by
$2,885,736 at September 30, 2008 and negative cash flow from operating
activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 was $5,590,315. These
factors, and our inability to meet our obligations from current operations,
and
the need to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives, create a
substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We
currently do not have sufficient funds on hand to fund our anticipated negative
cash flow until we reach our projected break-even level of operations. We do
not
have any bank credit lines. Accordingly, we will have to obtain additional
funding in the near future in order to continue our operations until our
revenues are sufficient to fund our operating expenses. Although we
have
again re-commenced our on-line e-commerce business and now are again
generating revenues from that
line
of our business,
and we
have recently implemented a new business line in local advertising
(LocalAdLink), we do not anticipate that we will generate sufficient cash from
operations to fund our working capital needs for at least another six months.
Accordingly, we intend to continue to seek additional financing from various
sources, including from the sale of debt or equity securities. We have not
yet
identified, and cannot be sure that we will be able to obtain any additional
funding from either of these sources, or that the terms under which we may
be
able to obtain such funding will be beneficial to us. If we do not obtain
sufficient additional funds in the near future, we will have to suspend some
of
our operations, further scale down our current and proposed future operations
or, if those actions are not sufficient, terminate our operations.
All
of
the convertible notes that we have issued recently in order to fund our working
capital needs mature within the next 12 months. Accordingly, in addition to
having to raise funds to continue to operate, we also will have to raise funds
to repay these convertible notes (to the extent that such notes are not
converted by the holders). As of September 30, 2008, the total amount of our
short-term borrowings was $4,500,000. Most of the convertible notes that we
issued are secured by a lien on certain of our assets and/or the assets of
our
subsidiary. Therefore, in the event that we fail to repay these secured
promissory notes as they mature, we will be at risk of losing our assets through
foreclosure of our assets. Accordingly, a default under the secured convertible
notes could result in the loss of our assets and the termination of our
operations.
Management
is taking steps to raise additional funds
to address its operating and financial cash requirements to continue operations
in the next twelve months. Management has devoted a significant amount of
time in the raising of capital from additional debt and equity
financing.

Operating
Activities
Net
cash
used in operating activities for the nine month period ended September 30,
2008
and 2007 was $5,590,315 and $2,039,633. This increase was mainly attributable
to
the use of cash in operations as we further established our business and
operations.
Investing
Activities
Net
cash
used in investing activities for the nine month period ended September 30,
2008
and 2007 was $121,882 and $130,586, respectively, representing cash expended
for
the purchase of computer and office equipment and expenditures related to
Website development.
Financing
Activities
Net
cash
provided by financing activities for the nine month period ended September
30,
2008 and 2007 was $5,629,159 and $2,154,470, respectively, due primarily to
net
cash received from the sale of debt securities of $5,733,232 and $270,000.
We
also received $530,927
from the issuance of common stock, and
paid
$25,000 to repay a short term bridge loan in January 2008, a $500,000 Secured
Note in July 2008 and a promissory note of $110,000 in August 2008. During
August 2008, the company paid off a zero coupon note to one of its investors
of
$110,000. In September 2008 the Company received $50,000 from an accredited
investor as a 90 day zero coupon-note in which $55,000 will be due in December
2008.
As
a
result of the above activities, we experienced a net decrease in cash of $83,038
for the nine month period ended September 30, 2008. Our ability to continue
as a
going concern is dependent on our success in obtaining additional financing
from
investors through the sale of its securities.
Other
As
of
September 30, 2008 we had no long-term debt obligations, no capital lease
obligations, no material long-term purchase obligations or other similar
long-term liabilities. We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements,
and we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded
contracts. In addition, we have no financial guarantees, debt or lease
agreements or other arrangements that could trigger a requirement for an early
payment or that could change the value of our assets
Inflation
and changing prices have had no effect on our net sales and revenues or on
our
income from continuing operations
Not
applicable.
Item
4T. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have carried out an evaluation
of
our 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”) as of September 30, 2008.
Based
upon their evaluation our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer
have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules
13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act are not effective in providing
reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in our
Exchange Act filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the
time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and that the
information is accumulated and communicated to our Chief Executive Office and
Chief Financial Officer to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes
in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
During
the nine months ended September 30, 2008, there were no changes in our internal
control over financial reporting (under the Exchange Act) or in other factors
that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect,
our internal control over financial reporting.
-20-
We
do not
expect that our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over
financial reporting will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system,
no
matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not
absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because
of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud,
if any, within our company have been detected. Because of the inherent
limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error
or
fraud may occur and not be detected.
PART
II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item
1. Legal Proceedings
In
connection with obtaining a $500,000 secured loan from Centurion Credit
Resources, LLC, this company and Robert McNulty, our Chief Executive Officer,
each executed an Affidavit of Confession of Judgment in favor of Centurion
Credit. The note was not repaid by its 2008 maturity date, and on June 23,
2008
Centurion Credit Resources entered a judgment against the company and Mr.
McNulty in the Supreme Court of New York for the entire principal amount, plus
interest. On July 9, 2008, we satisfied the entire judgment by paying in full
all amounts specified in the judgment, and on August 5, 2008, Centurion Credit
delivered to us notice of the satisfaction of the judgment.
The
Company is presently involved in other litigation as part of its normal business
process. Management does not have reason to believe that any of these lawsuits
will have a material adverse impact on the Company.
There
has
been no material change in the Risk Factors set forth in the “Risk Factors”
section of the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the year ended December 31, 2007,
other
than as set forth below:
We
currently have outstanding $4,500,000 of short-term convertible promissory
notes
that are secured by a lien on all of this company’s assets. Accordingly, a
default under the convertible promissory notes, or our inability to repay them
when these notes become due, could result in the foreclosure of all of our
assets and the termination of our business.
We
currently have outstanding approximately $4,500,000 of short-term, secured
notes
that mature and must be repaid in full, both principal and interest, at various
times between March 31, 2009 and July 31, 2009. Failure to make any payment
as
required under the convertible promissory notes could result in the acceleration
of the convertible promissory notes and the foreclosure of our assets. If we
are
unable to repay the notes in full upon their maturity, or if we otherwise
default under our obligations to the holders of those notes, the holders of
the
convertible promissory notes will have the right to foreclose on all of our
assets, which would materially and adversely affect our ability to continue
our
operations and could terminate our existence. No assurance can be given that
we
will be able to make all payments as required or that we will be able to repay
the convertible promissory notes.
We
will need significant additional capital, which we may be unable to
obtain.
We
currently only have sufficient cash available to continue our current operations
until November 30, 2008. Our capital requirements in connection with our
expanding commercial operations have been, and will continue to be, significant.
We need to obtain a significant amount of additional funds to fund our working
capital needs, to continue to market our website, to offer a broader range
of
products on our e-commerce site, and to otherwise expand our business. There
can
be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms
acceptable to us, if at all.
If we
are not able to raise additional funds in the near future, we may have to
severely reduce our operations or even terminate our business.

On
July
17, 2008 the Company issued 107,143 shares of the Company’s common stock, to one
of our service providers in consideration of technical and administrative
assistance for the Company’s ecommerce platform. This help includes desktop
support, back office, system architecture, design and implementation. This
resulted in additional non cash expense of $268,974. The issuance of securities
is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933,
as
amended (the “Securities Act”), under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act as
transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering, or under Rule
506
of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
On
August
22, 2008 the Company issued 327,126 shares of the Company’s common stock to one
of our placement agents as part of their commission for assisting with a private
placement to accredited investors. This resulted in additional non cash expense
of $583,893. The issuance of securities is exempt from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, under Section 4(2) of the Act as
transactions by an issuer not involving any public offering.
On
September 26, 2008 the Company issued 50,400 shares of the Company’s common
stock to a placement agent for settlement of a liability incurred in a prior
period. In accordance with an agreement with this placement agent the number
of
shares was determined by converting the cost of the services to common stock
at
$.70 per share. However, in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, the Company used the trading price of the stock on the settlement
date, which was $2.50 per share, to settle this liability. Since $15,000 was
recorded as expense in a previous period, this resulted in additional expense
of
$111,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2008. The issuance of securities
is
exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, under Section
4(2) of the Act as transactions by an issuer not involving any public
offering.
On
September 30, 2008 the Company sold 25,000 shares of its common stock and a
warrant to purchase an additional 12,500 shares of common stock at $.70 per
share, for $25,000 in cash. This resulted in additional non cash expense of
$75,600. The issuance of securities is exempt from the registration requirements
of the Securities Act, under Section 4(2) of the Act as transactions by an
issuer not involving any public offering.
During
the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2008, the Company issued 408,338 shares
of its common stock for $412,394 to foreign investors. This issuance was exempt
from registration based on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act or Regulation S thereunder.
