Organization

Mandalay
Media, Inc. (the “Company” or “Mandalay Media”), formerly Mediavest, Inc.
(“Mediavest”) , was originally incorporated in the state of Delaware on November
6, 1998 under the name eB2B Commerce, Inc. On April 27, 2000, it merged into
DynamicWeb Enterprises Inc., a New Jersey corporation, the surviving company,
and changed its name to eB2B Commerce, Inc. On April 13, 2005, the Company
changed its name to Mediavest, Inc. Through January 26, 2005, the
Company and its former subsidiaries were engaged in providing
business-to-business transaction management services designed to simplify
trading between buyers and suppliers. The Company was inactive from January 26,
2005 until its merger with Twistbox Entertainment, Inc., February 12, 2008 (Note
6). On September 14, 2007, Mediavest was re-incorporated in the state
of Delaware as Mandalay Media Inc.
On
November 7, 2007, Mediavest merged into its wholly-owned, newly formed
subsidiary, Mandalay Media, with Mandalay Media as the surviving corporation.
Mandalay Media issued: (1) one new share of common stock in exchange for
each share of Mediavest’s outstanding common stock and (2) one new share of
preferred stock in exchange for each share of Mediavest’s outstanding
preferred stock as of November 7, 2007. Mandalay Media’s preferred and common
stock had the same status and par value as the respective stock of
Mediavest and Mandalay Media acceded to all the rights, acquired all the assets
and assumed all of the liabilities of Mediavest.
On
February 12, 2008, Mandalay Media completed a merger (the “Merger”) with
Twistbox Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”) through an exchange of all outstanding
capital stock of Twistbox for 10,180 shares of common stock of the Company. In
connection with the Merger, the Company assumed of all the outstanding options
under Twistbox’s Stock Incentive Plan by the issuance of options to purchases
2,463 shares of common stock of the Company, including 2,145 vested and 319
unvested options.
After the
Merger, Twistbox became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the
Company’s only active subsidiary.
Twistbox
Entertainment, Inc. (formerly known as The WAAT Corporation) is incorporated in
the State of Delaware.
Twistbox
is a global publisher and distributor of branded entertainment content,

(all

On
October 23, 2008 the Company completed an acquisition of 100% of the issued and
outstanding share capital of AMV Holding Limited, a United Kingdom private
limited company (“AMV”), and 80% of the issued and outstanding share capital of
Fierce Media Ltd (“Fierce”).
In
consideration for the shares, and subject to adjustment as set forth in the
Stock Purchase Agreement (“Stock Purchase Agreement”), the aggregate purchase
price (the “Purchase Price”) consisted of: (a) $5,375 in cash (the “Cash
Consideration”); (b) 4,500 fully paid shares of Common Stock (the “Stock
Consideration”); (c) a secured promissory note in the aggregate original
principal amount of $5,375 (the “AMV Note”); and (d) additional earn-out
amounts, if any, if the acquired companies achieve certain targeted earnings for
each of the periods from October 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009, April 1, 2009 to
March 31, 2010, and April 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010, as determined in
accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement. The Purchase Price was subject to
certain adjustments based on the working capital of AMV, to be determined
initially within 75 days of the closing, and subsequently within 60 days
following June 30, 2009. Any such adjustment of the Purchase Price will be made
first by means of an adjustment to the principal sum due under the AMV Note, as
set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. An initial adjustment of $443 was
made subsequent to closing, and has been added to the AMV Note. The initial
period earn-out was recognized in the year ended March 31, 2009 and was added to
the amount of consideration for the acquisition, as described in Note
6.
AMV is a
leading mobile media and marketing company delivering games and lifestyle
content directly to consumers in the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa and
various other European countries. AMV markets its well established branded
services through a unique Customer Relationship Management platform that drives

Summary
of Significant Accounting Policies
|
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding
interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements
contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which
the Company believes are necessary for a fair statement of the Company’s
financial position as of September 30, 2009 and its results of operations for
the three months and the six months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively. These consolidated financial statements are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. The consolidated
balance sheet presented as of September 30, 2009 has been derived from the
unaudited consolidated financial statements as of that date, and the
consolidated balance sheet presented as of March 31, 2009 has been derived from
the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date.

Notes
to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(all
numbers in thousands except per share amounts)
Principles
of Consolidation
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company’s revenues are derived primarily by licensing material and software in
the form of products (Image Galleries, Wallpapers, video, WAP Site access,
Mobile TV) and mobile games. License arrangements with the end user can be on a
perpetual or subscription basis.
A
perpetual license gives an end user the right to use the product, image or game
on the registered handset on a perpetual basis. A subscription license gives an
end user the right to use the product, image or game on the registered handset
for a limited period of time, ranging from a few days to as long as one
month.
The
Company either markets and distributes its products directly to consumers, or
distributes products through mobile telecommunications service providers
(“carriers”), in which case the carrier markets the product, images or games to
end users. License fees for perpetual and subscription licenses are usually
billed upon download of the product, image or game by the end user. In the case
of subscriber licenses, many subscriber agreements provide for automatic renewal
until the subscriber opts-out, while others provide opt-in renewal. In either
case, subsequent billings for subscription licenses are generally billed
monthly. The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards
Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 985-605, Software Revenue Recognition,
to all transactions.
Revenues
are recognized from the Company’s products, images and games when persuasive
evidence of an arrangement exists, the product, image or game has been
delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and the collection of the resulting
receivable is probable. For both perpetual and subscription licenses, management
considers a license agreement to be evidence of an arrangement with a carrier or
aggregator and a “clickwrap” agreement to be evidence of an arrangement with an
end user. For these licenses, the Company defines delivery as the download of
the product, image or game by the end user.
The
Company estimates revenues from carriers in the current period when reasonable
estimates of these amounts can be made. Most carriers only provide detailed
sales transaction data on a one to two month lag. Estimated revenue is treated
as unbilled receivables until the detailed reporting is received and the
revenues can be billed. Some carriers provide reliable interim preliminary
reporting and others report sales data within a reasonable time frame following
the end of each month, both of which allow the Company to make reasonable
estimates of revenues and therefore to recognize revenues during the reporting
period when the end user licenses the product, image or game. Determination of
the appropriate amount of revenue recognized involves judgments and estimates
that the Company believes are reasonable, but it is possible that actual results
may differ from the Company’s estimates. The Company’s estimates for revenues
include consideration of factors such as preliminary sales data,
carrier-specific historical sales trends, volume of activity on company
monitored sites, seasonality, time elapsed from launch of services or product
lines, the age of games and the expected impact of newly launched games,
successful introduction of new handsets, growth of 3G subscribers by carrier,
promotions during the period and economic trends. When the Company receives the
final carrier reports, to the extent not received within a reasonable time frame
following the end of each month, the Company records any differences between
estimated revenues and actual revenues in the reporting period when the Company
determines the actual amounts. Revenues earned from certain carriers may not be
reasonably estimated. If the Company is unable to reasonably estimate the amount
of revenues to be recognized in the current period, the Company recognizes
revenues upon the receipt of a carrier revenue report and when the Company’s
portion of licensed revenues are fixed or determinable and collection is
probable. To monitor the reliability of the Company’s estimates, management,
where possible, reviews the revenues by country, by carrier and by product line
on a regular basis to identify unusual trends such as differential adoption
rates by carriers or the introduction of new handsets. If the Company deems a
carrier not to be creditworthy, the Company defers all revenues from the
arrangement until the Company receives payment and all other revenue recognition
criteria have been met.

In
accordance with FASB ASC 605-45, Reporting Revenue Gross as a
Principal Versus Net as an Agent, the Company recognizes as revenues the
amount the carrier reports as payable upon the sale of the Company’s products,
images or games. The Company has evaluated its carrier agreements and has
determined that it is not the principal when selling its products, images or
games through carriers. Key indicators that it evaluated to reach this
determination include:
|
•
|
wireless
subscribers directly contract with the carriers, which have most of the
service interaction
and are generally viewed as the primary obligor by the
subscribers;
|
|
•
|
carriers
generally have significant control over the types of content that they
offer to their subscribers;
|
|
•
|
carriers
are directly responsible for billing and collecting fees from their
subscribers, including the resolution of billing
disputes;
|
|
•
|
carriers
generally pay the Company a fixed percentage of their revenues or a fixed
fee for each game;
|
|
•
|
carriers
generally must approve the price of the Company’s content in advance of
their sale to subscribers, and the Company’s more significant carriers
generally have the ability to set the ultimate price charged to their
subscribers; and
|
|
•
|
the
Company has limited risks, including no inventory risk and limited credit
risk
|
For
direct to consumer business, revenue is earned by delivering a product or
service directly to the end user of that product or service. In those cases, the
Company records as revenue the amount billed to that end user and recognizes the
revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the product, image or
game has been delivered, the fee is fixed or determinable, and the collection of
the resulting receivable is probable.
Net
(Loss) per Common Share
Basic
loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common
stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the
period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable
to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding for the period plus dilutive common stock equivalents, using the
treasury stock method. Potentially dilutive shares from stock options and
warrants and the conversion of the Series A preferred stock were as
follows:

These
shares were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share as they
were anti-dilutive in each period.
Comprehensive
Loss
Comprehensive
loss consists of two components, net loss and other comprehensive loss. Other
comprehensive loss refers to gains and losses that under generally accepted
accounting principles are recorded as an element of stockholders’ equity but are
excluded from net loss. The Company’s other comprehensive loss currently
includes only foreign currency translation adjustments.
Cash
and Cash Equivalents
The
Company considers all highly liquid short-term investments purchased with a
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Content
Provider Licenses
Content
Provider License Fees and Minimum Guarantees
The
Company’s royalty expenses consist of fees that it pays to branded content
owners for the use of
their intellectual property in the development of the Company’s games and
other content, and other expenses directly incurred in earning revenue.
Royalty-based obligations are either accrued as incurred and subsequently paid,
or in the case of longer term content acquisitions, paid in advance and
capitalized on our balance sheet as prepaid royalties. These
royalty-based obligations are expensed to cost of revenues either at the
applicable contractual rate related to that revenue or over the estimated life
of the prepaid royalties. Advanced license payments that are not recoupable
against future royalties are capitalized and amortized over the lesser of
the estimated life of the branded title or the term of the license
agreement.
The
Company’s contracts with some licensors include minimum guaranteed royalty
payments, which are payable regardless of the ultimate volume of sales
to end users. Each quarter, the Company evaluates the realization of its
royalties as well as any unrecognized guarantees not yet paid to determine
amounts that it deems unlikely to be realized through product sales. The
Company uses estimates of revenues, and share of the relevant licensor to
evaluate the future realization of future royalties and guarantees. This
evaluation considers multiple factors, including the term of the agreement,
forecasted demand, product life cycle status, product development plans,
and current and anticipated sales levels, as well as other qualitative
factors. To the extent that this evaluation indicates that the remaining future
guaranteed royalty payments are not recoverable, the Company records an
impairment charge to cost of revenues and a liability in the period that
impairment is indicated.
Content
Acquired
Amounts
paid to third party content providers as part of an agreement to make content
available to the Company for a term or in perpetuity, without a revenue share,
have been capitalized and are included in the balance sheet as prepaid
expenses. These balances will be expensed over the estimated life of
the material acquired.
Software
Development Costs
The
Company applies the principles of FASB ASC 985-20, Accounting for the Costs of Computer
Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed (“ASC 985-20”). ASC
985-20 requires that software development costs incurred in conjunction with
product development be charged to research and development expense until
technological feasibility is established. Thereafter, until the product is
released for sale, software development costs must be capitalized and reported
at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value of the related
product.

The
Company has adopted the “tested working model” approach to establishing
technological feasibility for its products and games. Under this approach, the
Company does not consider a product or game in development to have passed the
technological feasibility milestone until the Company has completed a model of
the product or game that contains essentially all the functionality and features
of the final game and has tested the model to ensure that it works as expected.
To date, the Company has not incurred significant costs between the
establishment of technological feasibility and the release of a product or game
for sale; thus, the Company has expensed all software development costs as
incurred. The Company considers the following factors in determining whether
costs can be capitalized: the emerging nature of the mobile market; the gradual
evolution of the wireless carrier platforms and mobile phones for which it
develops products and games; the lack of pre-orders or sales history for its
products and games; the uncertainty regarding a product’s or game’s
revenue-generating potential; its lack of control over the carrier distribution
channel resulting in uncertainty as to when, if ever, a product or game will be
available for sale; and its historical practice of canceling products and games
at any stage of the development process.
Product
Development Costs
The
Company charges costs related to research, design and development of products to
product
development expense as incurred. The types of costs included in product
development expenses include salaries, contractor fees and allocated facilities
costs.
Advertising
Expenses
The
Company expenses the production costs of advertising, including direct response
advertising, the first time the advertising takes place. Advertising expense was
$2,176 and $139 in the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008,
respectively and $4,515 and $563 in the six months ended September 30, 2009 and
2008, respectively.
Restructuring
The
Company accounts for costs associated with employee terminations and other exit
activities in accordance with FASB ASC 420-10, Accounting for Costs Associated
with Exit or Disposal Activities. The Company records employee
termination benefits as an operating expense when it communicates the benefit
arrangement to the employee and it requires no significant future services,
other than a minimum retention period, from the employee to earn the termination
benefits.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
As of
September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, the carrying value of cash and cash
equivalents, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses and other current assets,
accounts payable, accrued license fees, accrued compensation and other current
liabilities approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of such
instruments. The carrying value of current portion of long-term debt
approximates fair value as the related interest rates approximate rates
currently available to the Company.

Foreign Currency
Translation.
The
Company uses the United States dollar for financial reporting
purposes. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated
using current rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Equity
accounts have been translated at their historical exchange rates when the
capital transaction occurred. Statement of Operations amounts are
translated at average rates in effect for the reporting period. The foreign
currency translation adjustment loss of $362 in the three months ended September
30, 2009 and $159 in the six months ended September 30, 2009 has been reported
as a component of comprehensive loss in the consolidated statement of
stockholders equity and comprehensive loss. Translation gains or losses are
shown as a separate component of shareholder's equity.
Concentrations
of Credit Risk
Financial
instruments which potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist
principally of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. We have
placed cash and cash equivalents with a single high credit-quality institution.
Most of our sales are made directly to large national Mobile Phone Operators in
the countries that we operate. We have a significant level of business and
resulting significant accounts receivable balance with one operator and
therefore have a high concentration of credit risk with that operator. We
perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain an allowance
for potential credit losses. As of September 30, 2009, two major customers
represented approximately 12% and 11%, respectively, of our gross accounts
receivable outstanding. These two customers accounted for 22% and 14%,
respectively, of our gross revenues in the three months ended September 30,
2009; and 21% and 15% in the six months ended September 30, 2009. As of March
31, 2009, our two largest customers represented approximately 19% and 13% of our
gross accounts receivable outstanding. These customers accounted for 5% and 19%
respectively, of our gross sales in the year ended March 31, 2009.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization is
calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
related assets. Estimated useful lives are 8 to 10 years for leasehold
improvements and 5 years for other assets.
Goodwill
and Indefinite Life Intangible Assets
Goodwill
represents the excess of cost over fair value of net assets of businesses
acquired. In accordance with FASB ASC 350-20 Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets, the value assigned to goodwill and indefinite lived intangible
assets, including trademarks and tradenames, is not amortized to expense, but
rather they are evaluated at least on an annual basis to determine if there are
potential impairments. If the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its
carrying value, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the implied
fair value of the reporting unit goodwill is less than the carrying value. If
the fair value of an indefinite lived intangible (such as trademarks and trade
names) is less than its carrying amount, an impairment loss is recorded. Fair
value is determined based on discounted cash flows, market multiples or
appraised values, as appropriate. Discounted cash flow analysis requires
assumptions about the timing and amount of future cash inflows and outflows,
risk, the cost of capital, and terminal values. Each of these factors can
significantly affect the value of the intangible asset. The estimates of future
cash flows, based on reasonable and supportable assumptions and projections,
require management’s judgment. Any changes in key assumptions about the
Company’s businesses and their prospects, or changes in market conditions, could
result in an impairment charge. Some of the more significant estimates and
assumptions inherent in the intangible asset valuation process include: the
timing and amount of projected future cash flows; the discount rate selected to
measure the risks inherent in the future cash flows; and the assessment of the
asset’s life cycle and the competitive trends impacting the asset, including
consideration of any technical, legal or regulatory trends.

In the
year ended March 31, 2009, the Company determined that there was an impairment
of goodwill, amounting to $27,844. In performing the related
valuation analysis, the Company used various valuation methodologies including
probability weighted discounted cash flows, comparable transaction analysis, and
market capitalization and comparable company multiple comparison. The impairment
is detailed in Note 6 below.
Long-lived
assets, including purchased intangible assets with finite lives are amortized
using the straight-line method over their useful lives ranging from three to ten
years and are reviewed for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 360-10,
Accounting for the Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash
flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be
impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the
carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be
disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less
costs to sell.
In the
year ended March 31, 2009, the Company determined that there was an impairment
of intangible assets, amounting to $3,940. In performing the related
valuation analysis the Company used various valuation methodologies including
probability weighted discounted cash flows, comparable transaction analysis, and
market capitalization and comparable company multiple comparison. The impairment
is detailed in Note 8 below.
Intangible
assets subject to amortization primarily consist of customer lists, license
agreements and software that have been acquired. The intangible asset
values assigned to the identified assets for each acquisition were generally
determined based upon the expected discounted aggregate cash flows to be derived
over the estimated useful life. The method of amortizing the intangible asset
values are based upon the Company’s historical experience. The
Company reviews the recoverability of its finite-lived intangible assets for
recoverability whenever events or circumstances indicated that the carrying
amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability is assessed by
comparison to associated undiscounted cash flows. We have determined that there
is no impairment in the current period.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC
740-10, Accounting
for Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”), which requires recognition of deferred
tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events
that have been included in its financial statements or tax returns. Under ASC
740-10, the Company determines deferred tax assets and liabilities for temporary
differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets
and liabilities along with net operating losses, if it is more likely than not
the tax benefits will be realized using the enacted tax rates in effect for the
year in which it expects the differences to reverse. To the extent a
deferred tax asset cannot be recognized, a valuation allowance is established if
necessary.

(all

ASC
740-10 prescribes that a company should use a more-likely-than-not recognition
threshold based on the technical merits of the tax position taken. Tax positions
that meet the “more-likely-than-not” recognition threshold should be measured as
the largest amount of the tax benefits, determined on a cumulative probability
basis, which is more likely than not to be realized upon ultimate settlement in
the financial statements. We recognize interest and penalties related to income
tax matters as a component of the provision for income taxes. We do not
currently anticipate that the total amount of unrecognized tax benefits will
significantly change within the next 12 months.
Stock-based compensation.
We have
applied FASB ASC 718 Share-Based Payment (“ASC
718”) and accordingly, we record stock-based compensation expense for all of our
stock-based awards.
Under ASC
718, we estimate the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes
option pricing model. The fair value for awards that are expected to vest is
then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the
award, which is generally the option vesting term. The amount of expense
recognized represents the expense associated with the stock options we expect to
ultimately vest based upon an estimated rate of forfeitures; this rate of
forfeitures is updated as necessary and any adjustments needed to recognize the
fair value of options that actually vest or are forfeited are
recorded.
The
Black-Scholes option pricing model, used to estimate the fair value of an award,
requires the input of subjective assumptions, including the expected volatility
of our common stock, interest rates, dividend rates and an option’s
expected life. As a result, the financial statements include amounts that are
based upon our best estimates and judgments relating to the expenses recognized
for stock-based compensation.
Preferred
Stock
The
Company applies the guidance enumerated in FASB ASC 480-10, Accounting for Certain Financial
Instruments with Characteristics of both Liabilities and Equity (“ASC
480-10”) when determining the classification and measurement of preferred stock.
Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption (if any) are classified as
liability instruments and are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC
480-10. All other issuances of preferred stock are subject to the classification
and measurement principles of ASC 480-10. Accordingly, the Company classifies
conditionally redeemable preferred shares (if any), which includes preferred
shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the
holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not
solely within the Company’s control, as temporary equity. At all other times,
the Company classifies its preferred shares in stockholders’
equity.
Use
of Estimates
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of
contingent asset and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates. The most significant estimates relate to revenues
for periods not yet reported by Carriers, liabilities recorded for future
minimum guarantee payments under content licenses, accounts receivable
allowances, and stock-based compensation expense.

Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
With the
exception of those discussed below, there have been no recent accounting
pronouncements or changes in accounting pronouncements during the three and six
months ended September 30, 2009, as compared to the recent accounting
pronouncements described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, that are of significance, or potential
significance to the Company.
Adopted
Accounting Pronouncements
Effective
July 1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 105-10, Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (“ASC 105-10”) (the “Codification”). ASC 105-10 establishes
the exclusive authoritative reference for U.S. GAAP for use in financial
statements, except for SEC rules and interpretive releases, which are also
authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification will supersede all
existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The Company has included
the references to the Codification, as appropriate, in these consolidated
financial statements. As the Codification was not intended to change or alter
existing GAAP, it did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.
Effective
April 1, 2009, the Company adopted ASC 855, Subsequent Events (“ASC
855-10”). The standard modifies the names of the two types of subsequent events
either as “recognized subsequent events” (previously referred to in practice as
Type I subsequent events) or “non-recognized subsequent events” (previously
referred to in practice as Type II subsequent events). In addition, the standard
modifies the definition of subsequent events to refer to events or transactions
that occur after the balance sheet date, but before the financial statements are
issued (for public entities) or available to be issued (for nonpublic entities).
It also requires the disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have
been evaluated. The standard did not result in significant changes in the
practice of subsequent event disclosures or the related accounting thereof, and
therefore the adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.
Effective
April 1, 2009, the Company adopted three accounting standard updates which
were intended to provide additional application guidance and enhanced
disclosures regarding fair value measurements and impairments of securities.
They also provide additional guidelines for estimating fair value in accordance
with fair value accounting. The first update, as codified in ASC 820-10-65,
provides additional guidelines for estimating fair value in accordance with fair
value accounting. The second accounting update, as codified in ASC 320-10-65,
changes accounting requirements for other-than-temporary-impairment
(OTTI) for debt securities by replacing the current requirement that a
holder have the positive intent and ability to hold an impaired security to
recovery in order to conclude an impairment was temporary with a requirement
that an entity conclude it does not intend to sell an impaired security and it
will not be required to sell the security before the recovery of its amortized
cost basis. The third accounting update, as codified in ASC 825-10-65, increases
the frequency of fair value disclosures. These updates were effective for fiscal
years and interim periods ended after June 15, 2009. The adoption of these
accounting updates did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.

Effective
April 1, 2009, the Company adopted a new accounting standard update regarding
business combinations, ASC 805, which establishes principles and requirements
for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial
statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any
non-controlling interest in the acquiree. ASC 805-10 also provides guidance for
recognizing and measuring the goodwill acquired in the business combination and
determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial
statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business
combination. ASC 805-10 applies prospectively to business combinations for which
the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting
period beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We will apply the
requirements of ASC 805-10 prospectively to any future acquisitions. Although
the Company did not enter into any business combinations during the first six
months of 2009, the Company believes ASC 805-10 may have a material impact on
the Company’s future consolidated financial statements if the Company were to
enter into any future business combinations depending on the size and nature of
any such future transactions.
New
Accounting Pronouncements
In
September 2009, the FASB issued Update No. 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force ” (ASU
2009-13). It updates the existing multiple-element revenue arrangements guidance
currently included under ASC 605-25, which originated primarily from the
guidance in EITF Issue No. 00-21, “Revenue Arrangements with Multiple
Deliverables” (EITF 00-21). The revised guidance primarily provides two
significant changes: (1) eliminates the need for objective and reliable evidence
of the fair value for the undelivered element in order for a delivered item to
be treated as a separate unit of accounting, and (2) eliminates the residual
method to allocate the arrangement consideration. In addition, the guidance also
expands the disclosure requirements for revenue recognition. ASU 2009-13 will be
effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after
June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted provided that the revised
guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The
Company is currently assessing the future impact of this new accounting update
to its consolidated financial statements.
In
August 2009, the FASB issued Update No. 2009-05, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures (Topic 820) — Measuring Liabilities at Fair
Value (ASU 2009-05). ASU 2009-05 amends ASC 820, Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures, of the Codification to provide further guidance on
how to measure the fair value of a liability, an area where practitioners have
been seeking further guidance. It primarily does three things: (1) sets
forth the types of valuation techniques to be used to value a liability when a
quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available,
(2) clarifies that when estimating the fair value of a liability, a
reporting entity is not required to include a separate input or adjustment to
other inputs relating to the existence of a restriction that prevents the
transfer of the liability and (3) clarifies that both a quoted price in an
active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted
price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market
when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1
fair value measurements. This standard is effective beginning fourth quarter of
2009 for the Company. The adoption of this standard update is not expected to
impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The
accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplates continuation
of the Company as a going concern. One of the Company’s operating
subsidiaries, Twistbox, has sustained substantial operating losses since
commencement of operations. The Company has also incurred negative cash
flows from operating activities and the majority of the Company’s assets are
intangible assets and goodwill, which have been subject to impairment in the
current year.

In
addition, Twistbox has a significant amount of debt, in the form of a secured
note, as detailed in Note 8. The Company has guaranteed 50% of this debt, and
the group is subject to certain covenants. The debt and the operation of
covenants were restructured on August 11, 2009.
The
realization of a major portion of the assets in the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which is in
turn dependent on reaching a positive cash flow position while maintaining
adequate liquidity.
The
Company has undertaken a number of specific steps to achieve positive cashflow
in the future and to improve liquidity. These actions include the debt
restructuring described in Note 8, and the Company has taken further action to
reduce its ongoing operating cost base, and has been in discussions with
unsecured creditors regarding restructuring of commitments. Other actions
include continued increases in revenues by introducing new products and revenue
streams, reductions in the cost of revenues, continued expansion into new
territories, reviewing additional financing options, and accretive acquisitions.
Management believes that actions undertaken as a whole provide the opportunity
for the Company to continue as a going concern, although this will be highly
dependent on the ability to restructure commitments, and to obtain additional
debt and/or equity placements.

Fair
Value Measurements
|
The
carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivables, accounts
payable and accrued liabilities approximate their fair values due to the
short-term maturities of these instruments.
On April
1, 2009, the Company adopted FASB ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures - Measuring
Liabilities at Fair Value (“ASC 820-10”). ASC 820-10, which defines fair
value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted
accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
ASC 820-10 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides
guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used
to classify the source of the information.
ASC
820-10 establishes a three-level valuation hierarchy of valuation techniques
that is based on observable and unobservable inputs. Classification within the
hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level of input that is significant
to the fair value measurement. The first two inputs are considered observable
and the last unobservable, that may be used to measure fair value and include
the following:
Level 1
- Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Level 2
- Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or
indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted
prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or
can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of
the assets or liabilities.
Level 3
- Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and
that are significant to the fair value of the assets or
liabilities.
As of
September 30, 2009, the Company held certain assets and liabilities that are

Acquisitions/Purchase

Twistbox
Entertainment Inc. and related entities
On
February 12, 2008, the Company completed an acquisition of Twistbox through an
exchange of all outstanding capital stock of Twistbox for 10,180 shares of
common stock of the Company and the Company’s assumption of all the outstanding
options of Twistbox’s 2006 Stock Incentive Plan by the issuance of options to
purchase 2,463 shares of common stock of the Company, including 2,145 vested and
318 unvested options. After the Merger, Twistbox became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of the Company.
Twistbox
is a global publisher and distributor of branded entertainment content,
including images, video, TV programming and games, for Third Generation
(3G) mobile networks. It publishes and distributes its content globally and
has developed an intellectual property portfolio unique to its target
demographic that includes worldwide mobile rights to global brands and
content from leading film, television and lifestyle content publishing
companies. Twistbox has built a proprietary mobile publishing platform and
has leveraged its brand portfolio and platform to secure “direct”
distribution agreements with the largest mobile operators in the world.
These factors contributed to a purchase price in excess of the fair value
of net tangible and intangible assets acquired, and, as a result, the
Company recorded goodwill in connection with this transaction.
In
connection with the Merger, the Company guaranteed up to $8,250 of principal
under an existing note of Twistbox in accordance with the terms, conditions and
limitations contained in the note. In connection with the guaranty, the Company
issued the lender two warrants, one to purchase 1,093 and the other to purchase
1,093 shares of common stock of the Company, exercisable at $7.55 per share, and
at $5.00 per share, (increasing to $7.55 per share, if not exercised in full by
February 12, 2009), respectively, through July 30, 2011. The warrants have been
included as part of the purchase consideration and have been valued using the
Black Scholes method, using the stock price at the merger date of $4.75 per
share discounted for certain restrictions, a volatility of 70%, and the exercise
price and the expected time to vest for each group. These warrants were
subsequently amended as described in Note 8.
20
Mandalay
Media, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes
to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(all

The
purchase consideration was determined to be $67,479, consisting of $66,025
attributed to the common stock and options exchanged and warrants issued, and
$1,454 in transaction costs. During the year, a further $59 of
transaction costs were recognized, with the result that the purchase
consideration was increased to $67,538, with an equivalent increase in Goodwill.
The options and warrants were valued using the Black Scholes method, using the
stock price at the merger date of $4.75 per share, a volatility of 70%, and in
the case of options the exercise price and the expected time to vest for each
group. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company allocated the total
purchase price of $67,538 to the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based upon their respective estimated fair values as of the
acquisition date as follows:

$ | 67,538 |
The
Merger related restructuring reserves were subsequently reduced by $215,
increasing net assets acquired and consequentially reducing goodwill by that
amount. As a result, goodwill recognized in the above transaction amounted to
$61,221. Goodwill in relation to the acquisition of Twistbox is not expected to
be deductible for income tax purposes. Merger related restructuring reserves
include reserves for employee severance and for office relocation.
AMV
Holding Limited group
On
October 23, 2008, the Company completed an acquisition of 100% of AMV Holding
Limited, a United Kingdom private limited company (“AMV”) and 80% of Fierce
Media Limited. The acquisition was effective on October 1, 2008.
21
Mandalay
Media, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes
to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(all
numbers in thousands except per share amounts)
Prior to
closing, each outstanding option to purchase shares of capital stock of AMV was
either exercised in full or terminated. The AMV Note matures on July 31, 2010,
and bears interest at an initial rate of 5% per annum, subject to adjustment as
provided therein. In the event the Company completes an equity financing that
results in gross proceeds of over $6,000, the Company will prepay a portion of
the AMV Note in an amount equal to one-third of the excess of the gross proceeds
of such financing over $6,000. In addition, if within nine months of the
issuance date of the AMV Note, the Company completes a financing that results in
gross proceeds of over $15,000, then the Company shall prepay the entire
principal amount then outstanding under the AMV Note, plus accrued interest. If
within nine months of the issuance date of the Note, the aggregate principal sum
then outstanding under the AMV Note plus accrued interest thereon has not been
prepaid, then on and after such date, interest shall accrue on the unpaid
principal balance of the AMV Note at a rate of 7% per annum. Additionally, in
connection with the AMV Note, AMV granted to the Sellers a security interest in
its assets. Such security interest is subordinate to the security interest
granted to ValueAct Small Cap Master Fund, L.P. (“ValueAct) under the Senior
Secured Note, issued by Twistbox, due January 30, 2010, as amended on
February 12, 2008 (the “ValueAct Note”), and as subsequently amended on October
23, 2008. AMV also agreed to guarantee Mandalay Media’s repayment of the AMV
Note to the Sellers.
The
Purchase Price was preliminarily estimated by the Company to be $23,030
consisting of $9,900 attributed to the Stock Consideration issued, $5,375 in
cash, $95 in stamp duty, $5,818 under the AMV Note referenced above (inclusive
of the working-capital adjustment), $1,098 as an estimate of the initial period
earn-out adjustment and $744 in transaction costs. Any
further adjustments required under the “working capital adjustment”
provision and any further adjustment under the “earn-out” provision of the Stock
Purchase Agreement have not yet been determined and therefore have not been
included in the preliminary calculation of the purchase price. The shares of the
Stock Consideration were valued using the closing stock price at the acquisition
date of $2.20 per share. Under the purchase method of accounting, the Company
allocated the total Purchase Price of $23,030 to the net tangible and intangible
assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their respective estimated
fair values as of the acquisition date as follows:

Net
assets associated with Fierce Media Limited were insignificant. Goodwill
recognized in the above transaction is preliminarily estimated at $22,456. The
business acquired is not capital intensive and does not require significant
identifiable intangible assets – as a result the greater proportion of
consideration has been allocated to goodwill. Goodwill in relation to
the acquisition of AMV is not expected to be deductible for US income tax
purposes. The preliminary purchase price allocation, including the allocation of
goodwill, will be updated as additional information becomes
available.

Pro Forma Summary
The
following pro forma consolidated amounts give effect to the acquisition of AMV
by the Company accounted for by the purchase method of accounting as if it had
occurred as at the beginning of each of the period. The pro forma
consolidated results are not necessarily indicative of the operating results
that would have been achieved had the transaction been in effect as of the
beginning of the period presented and should not be construed as being
representative of future operating results.

In July
2007 Twistbox entered into a debt financing agreement pursuant to the
ValueAct Note amounting to $16,500, payable at 30 months. The holder of the
ValueAct Note was granted first lien over all of the Company’s assets. The
ValueAct Note carries interest of 9% annually for the first year and 10%
subsequently, with semi-annual interest only payments. The debt-financing
agreement included certain restrictive covenants. In conjunction with the Merger
described in Note 6, the Company guaranteed up to $8,250 of the principal; and
the restrictive covenants were modified, including a requirement for both
Mandalay Media and Twistbox to maintain certain minimum cash balances. In
connection with the guaranty, the Company issued the lender warrants to purchase
1,093 and 1,093 shares of common stock of the Company, exercisable at $7.55 per
share, and at $5.00 per share, (increasing to $7.55 per share, if not exercised
in full by February 12, 2009), respectively, through July 30, 2011. These
warrants replaced warrants originally issued by Twistbox in conjunction with the
ValueAct Note.
On
October 23, 2008, the Company, Twistbox and ValueAct entered into a Second
Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the ValueAct Note. Among other things, the
Second Amendment provides for a payment in kind election, whereby, in lieu of
making any cash payments to ValueAct on the following two interest payment
dates, Twistbox may elect that the amount of any interest due on such date be
added to the principal amount due under the ValueAct Note. That election was
made in connection with the first interest payment following the amendment. In
addition, ValueAct agreed to amend the ValueAct Note to modify the covenant
requiring that the Company and Twistbox maintain certain minimum combined cash
balances, during specified periods of time. Lastly, the Second Amendment
provides that an event of default may be triggered in the event the Company
fails to observe certain covenants as agreed to in the Second Amendment,
including a covenant that, until all principal and interest and any other
amounts due under the ValueAct Note are paid in full in cash, the Company: (i)
will not create, incur, assume or permit to exist certain indebtedness, except
for indebtedness in connection with a receivables facility as described in the
Second Amendment, which indebtedness would rank pari passu in right of payment
on the ValueAct Note, provided, that any receivables used to procure and
maintain such receivables facility shall not be subject to any lien of ValueAct
during the term of such receivables facility; and (ii) will not, and will not
permit any subsidiary to, without the prior consent of ValueAct, prepay any
indebtedness incurred in connection with the AMV Note, other than prepayments
with proceeds raised in an equity financing as permitted by the AMV Note.
Additionally, on October 23, 2008, in connection with the ValueAct Note, as
amended, AMV agreed to grant to ValueAct a security interest in its assets,
which ranks senior to the security interest granted to the Sellers. AMV also
agreed to guarantee Twistbox’s repayment of the ValueAct Note.

(all
numbers in thousands except per share amounts)
As
described above, the Company had previously issued to ValueAct two warrants to
purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Common Stock”). One warrant entitled ValueAct to purchase up to a total of
1,093 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $7.55 per share
(“$7.55 Warrant”). The other warrant entitled ValueAct to purchase up to a total
of 1,093 shares of Common Stock at an initial exercise price of $5.00 per
share (“$5.00 Warrant,” and together with the $7.55 Warrant, the “ValueAct
Warrants”). On October 23, 2008, the Company and ValueAct entered into an
allonge to each of the ValueAct Warrants. Among other things, the exercise price
of each of the ValueAct Warrants was amended to be $4.00 per share. The price
change resulted is an adjustment to the valuation of the warrants and therefore
to the debt discount which is amortized over the life of the term of the
debt.
On August
14, 2009, the Company, Twistbox and ValueAct entered into a Third Amendment
(the “Third Amendment”) to the ValueAct Note. Among other things, the Third
Amendment provides for the due date to be extended to July 31, 2010, an interest
rate of 12.5% from the date of the agreement through maturity, an extension of
the payment in kind (“PIK”) election through to the interest payment otherwise
due in January 2010, and a reduction in the minimum cash covenant to $1 million
until January 31, 2010 and $4 million thereafter, subject to certain conditions.
There were no other significant changes.
As
described above, the Company had previously issued to ValueAct warrants to
purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. On August 14, 2009, the Company
and ValueAct entered into an allonge to the warrant to purchase 1,093 shares of
Common Stock. The exercise price of the Warrant was amended from $4.00 to $1.25
per share, and the termination date of the warrants was amended to July 14,
2010. The impact of the price change of the warrants is immaterial to the
consolidated financial statements.
In
addition the Company and the sellers of AMV Limited entered into an agreement
which extended the maturity date of the Promissory Note (the “AMV Note”) which
represents deferred purchase consideration in relation to the AMV acquisition,
until July 31, 2010.
Minimum
future obligations, including interest, under the ValueAct Note are $20,118
during the year ended September 30, 2010 including repayment of the
principal.

Taxes

The
income tax provision for the quarter represents foreign withholding taxes paid
in jurisdictions outside of the US and income taxes currently payable in foreign
jurisdictions, primarily the United Kingdom based on revenue derived in that
territory. AMV Limited had taxable income in the quarter which is subject to
taxation in the United Kingdom. The effective tax rate used for calculation of
the UK tax provision in the quarter was 28% and the difference between the US
statutory rate of 34% and the effective rate of (43%) primarily relates to the
taxes related to the Company’s UK operations and the increase in the reserve for
deferred tax assets for the US operations.
As of
September 30, 2009, there were no material changes to either the nature or the
amounts of the uncertain tax positions previously determined and disclosed as at
March 31, 2009.
ASC 740
requires the consideration of a valuation allowance to reflect the likelihood of
realization of deferred tax assets. Significant management judgment
is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax
assets. There were no unrecognized tax benefits not subject to valuation
allowance as at September 30, 2009, and March 31, 2009. The Company will
classify interest and penalties on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component
of the provision for income taxes.

Litigation
Twistbox’s
wholly owned subsidiary, WAAT Media Corp. (“WAAT”) and General Media
Communications, Inc. (“GMCI”) are parties to a content license
agreement dated May 30, 2006, whereby GMCI granted to WAAT certain
exclusive rights to exploit GMCI branded content via mobile devices. GMCI
terminated the agreement on January 26, 2009 based on its claim that WAAT
failed to cure a material breach pertaining to the non-payment of a minimum
royalty guarantee installment in the amount of $485,000. On or about March
16, 2009, GMCI filed a complaint seeking the balance of the minimum guarantee
payments due under the agreement in the approximate amount of $4,085,000.
WAAT has counter-sued claiming GMCI is not entitled to the claimed amount and
that it has breached the agreement by, among other things, failing to promote,
market and advertise the mobile services as required under the agreement and by
fraudulently inducing WAAT to enter into the agreement based on GMCI’s
repeated assurances of its intention to reinvigorate its flagship
brand. GMCI has filed a demurrer to the counter-claim. WAAT intends
to vigorously defend against this action. Principals of both parties
continue to communicate to find a mutually acceptable resolution. The Company
has accrued for its estimated liability in this matter.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The
following discussion should be read in conjunction with, and is qualified in its
entirety by, the Financial Statements and the Notes thereto included in this
report. This discussion contains certain forward-looking statements that involve
substantial risks and uncertainties. When used in this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect” and similar
expressions, as they relate to our management or us, are intended to identify
such forward-looking statements. Our actual results, performance or achievements
could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these
forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors including those
set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period
ended March 31, 2009. Historical operating results are not necessarily
indicative of the trends in operating results for any future
period.
Unless
the context otherwise indicates, the use of the terms “we,” “our” “us” or the
“Company” refer to the business and operations of Mandalay Media, Inc.
(“Mandalay Media”) through its operating and wholly-owned subsidiaries, Twistbox
Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”) and AMV Holding Limited, a United Kingdom
private limited company (“AMV”).
Historical
Operations of Mandalay Media, Inc.
Mandalay
Media was originally incorporated in the State of Delaware on November 6,
1998 under the name eB2B Commerce, Inc. On April 27, 2000, Mandalay Media merged
into DynamicWeb Enterprises Inc., a New Jersey corporation, and changed its name
to eB2B Commerce, Inc. On April 13, 2005, Mandalay Media changed its name to
Mediavest, Inc. On November 7, 2007, through a
merger, the Company reincorporated in the State of Delaware under
the name Mandalay Media, Inc.
On
October 27, 2004, and as amended on December 17, 2004, Mandalay Media filed a
plan for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in
the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the
“Plan of Reorganization”). Under the Plan of Reorganization, as completed on
January 26, 2005: (1) Mandalay Media’s net operating assets and liabilities were
transferred to the holders of the secured notes in satisfaction of the principal
and accrued interest thereon; (2) $400,000 were transferred to a liquidation
trust and used to pay administrative costs and certain preferred creditors; (3)
$100,000 were retained by Mandalay Media to fund the expenses of remaining
public; (4) 3.5% of the new common stock of Mandalay Media (140,000 shares) was
issued to the holders of record of Mandalay Media’s preferred stock in
settlement of their liquidation preferences; (5) 3.5% of the new common stock of
Mandalay Media (140,000 shares) was issued to common stockholders of record as
of January 26, 2005 in exchange for all of the outstanding shares of the common
stock of the company; and (6) 93% of the new common stock of Mandalay Media
(3,720,000 shares) was issued to the sponsor of the Plan of Reorganization in
exchange for $500,000 in cash. Through January 26, 2005, Mandalay Media and its
subsidiaries were engaged in providing business-to-business transaction
management services designed to simplify trading between buyers and
suppliers.
Prior to
February 12, 2008, the Company was a public shell company with no operations,
and controlled by its significant stockholder, Trinad Capital Master Fund,
L.P.
SUMMARY
OF THE MERGER
Mandalay
Media entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger on December 31, 2007, as
subsequently amended by the Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated
February 12, 2008 (the “Merger Agreement”), with Twistbox Acquisition, Inc., a
Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mandalay Media (“Merger
Sub”), Twistbox Entertainment, Inc. (“Twistbox”), and Adi McAbian and Spark
Capital, L.P., as representatives of the stockholders of Twistbox, pursuant to
which Merger Sub would merge with and into Twistbox, with Twistbox as the
surviving corporation (the “Merger”). The Merger was completed on February 12,
2008.
31
Upon the
completion of the Merger, all shares of the Twistbox capital stock were no
longer outstanding and were automatically canceled and ceased to exist, and each
holder of a certificate representing any such shares ceased to have any rights
with respect thereto, except the right to receive the applicable merger
consideration. Additionally, each share of the Twistbox capital stock held by
Twistbox or owned by Merger Sub, Mandalay Media or any subsidiary of Twistbox or
Mandalay Media immediately prior to the Merger, was canceled and extinguished as
of the completion of the Merger without any conversion or payment in respect
thereof. Each share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of Merger Sub
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger was converted upon
completion of the Merger into one validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
share of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, of the surviving
corporation.
As part
of the Merger, Mandalay Media agreed to guarantee up to $8,250,000 of
Twistbox’s outstanding debt to ValueAct SmallCap Master Fund L.P.
(“ValueAct”), with certain amendments. On July 30, 2007,
Twistbox had entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement by and among
Twistbox, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined therein) and
ValueAct, pursuant to which ValueAct purchased a note in the
amount of $16,500,000 (the “ValueAct Note”) and a warrant which entitled
ValueAct to purchase from Twistbox up to a total of 2,401,747 shares of
Twistbox’s common stock (the “Warrant”). Twistbox and
ValueAct had also entered into a Guarantee and Security Agreement by
and among Twistbox, each of the subsidiaries of Twistbox, the Investors, as
defined therein, and ValueAct, as collateral agent, pursuant to which the
parties agreed that the ValueAct Note would be secured by substantially all of
the assets of Twistbox and its subsidiaries. In connection with the
Merger, the Warrant was terminated and we issued two warrants in place
thereof to ValueAct to purchase shares of our common stock. One of such
warrants entitles ValueAct to purchase up to a total of 1,092,622 shares
of our common stock at an exercise price of $7.55 per share. The other
warrant entitles ValueAct to purchase up to a total of 1,092,621 shares
of our common stock at an initial exercise price of $5.00 per share,
which, if not exercised in full by February 12, 2009, will be permanently
increased to an exercise price of $7.55 per share. Both warrants
expire on July 30, 2011. The terms of the warrants were subsequently modified on
October 23, 2008, as set forth below. We also entered into a Guaranty with
ValueAct whereby Mandalay Media agreed to guarantee Twistbox’s payment to
ValueAct of up to $8,250,000 of principal under the Note in accordance with
the terms, conditions and limitations contained in the ValueAct Note. The
financial covenants of the ValueAct Note were also amended, pursuant to
which Twistbox is required to maintain a cash balance of not less than
$2,500,000 at all times and Mandalay Media is required to
maintain a cash balance of not less than $4,000,000 at all times. These
covenants were subsequently amended as set forth below.
SUMMARY
OF THE AMV ACQUISITION
On
October 23, 2008, Mandalay Media consummated the acquisition of 100% of the
issued and outstanding share capital of AMV Holding Limited, a United Kingdom
private limited company (“AMV”) and 80% of the issued and outstanding share
capital of Fierce Media Limited, United Kingdom private limited company
(collectively the “Shares”). The acquisition of AMV is referred to
herein as the “AMV Acquisition”. The aggregate purchase price (subject to
adjustments as provided in the stock purchase agreement) for the Shares
consisted of (i) $5,375,000 in cash; (ii) 4,500,000 shares of common stock, par
value $0.0001 per share; (iii) a secured promissory note in the aggregate
principal amount of $5,375,000 (the “AMV Note”); and (iv) additional earn-out
amounts, if any, based on certain targeted earnings as set forth in the stock
purchase agreement.
In
addition, also on October 23, 2008, in connection with the AMV Acquisition,
Mandalay Media, Twistbox and ValueAct entered into a Second Amendment to
the ValueAct Note, which among other things, provides for a payment in kind
election at the option of Twistbox, modifies the financial covenants set
forth in the ValueAct Note to require that Mandalay Media and Twistbox
maintain certain minimum combined cash balances and provides for certain
covenants with respect to the indebtedness of Mandalay Media and its
subsidiaries. Also on October 23, 2008, AMV granted to ValueAct a security
interest in its assets to secure the obligations under the ValueAct
Note. In addition, Mandalay Media and ValueAct entered into an allonge to
each of those certain warrants issued to ValueAct in connection with the Merger,
which, among other things, amended the exercise price of each of the warrants to
$4.00 per share. On August 14, 2009, Mandalay Media, Twistbox and
ValueAct entered into a Third Amendment to the ValueAct Note. Pursuant
to the Third Amendment, the maturity date was changed to July 31, 2010 and the
interest rate of the Note increased from 10% to 12.5%. Additionally, the
Third Amendment provides that Twistbox may prepay the ValueAct Note in whole or
in part at any time without penalty. In the event of any such prepayment
prior to January 31, 2010, in an aggregate amount of not less than 50% of the
then outstanding and unpaid principal plus accrued interest under the ValueAct
Note, the balance of the ValueAct Note shall be payable on the earlier of July
31, 2015, or the date when such amount becomes due and payable as a result of an
event of default under the ValueAct Note (the earlier of such date, the “New
Maturity Date”). If Twistbox receives any net proceeds from a debt
financing (other than any proceeds from a Company Receivables Facility as
defined in the ValueAct Note) not to exceed $9,000,000, at least 50% of such
proceeds shall be paid by Twistbox to ValueAct to satisfy a portion of the
then-outstanding and unpaid principal plus accrued interest under the Note; any
indebtedness incurred by Twistbox in connection with such a prepayment shall be
excluded from Twistbox’s covenants, as set forth in the Note, not to incur
additional indebtedness. If the Company receives any net proceeds from an
equity financing, at least 50% of such proceeds shall be paid to ValueAct to
satisfy a portion of the then-outstanding and unpaid principal plus accrued
interest under the Note, and the balance of the Note shall be payable on the New
Maturity Date. In the event Twistbox or the Company have made any
prepayments in connection with a debt or equity financing, as applicable, which
payments are greater than or equal to $9,000,000 in the aggregate, then the
balance of the Note shall be payable on the New Maturity Date. Lastly, if
certain of the earn-out payments set forth in that certain Stock Purchase
Agreement, by and among the Company, Jonathan Creswell, Nathaniel MacLeitch and
the shareholders of AMV, dated as of October 23, 2008, as amended, have been
paid, the Company and Twistbox agreed to maintain certain minimum combined cash
balances.
32
Also, on
August 14, 2009, the Company and ValueAct entered into a Second Allonge to
Warrant to Purchase 1,092,621 Shares of Common Stock (the “Second Allonge”),
which amended that certain warrant to purchase 1,092,621 shares of the Company’s
common stock, issued to ValueAct on February 12, 2008, as amended (the “ValueAct
Warrant”). Pursuant to the Second Allonge, the exercise price of the
ValueAct Warrant decreased from $4.00 per share to the lesser of $1.25 per
share, or the exercise price per share for any warrant to purchase shares of the
Company’s common stock issued by the Company to certain other
parties.
On
October 23, 2008, Mandalay Media entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement
with certain investors identified therein (the “Investors”), pursuant to which
Mandalay Media agreed to sell to the Investors in a private offering an
aggregate of 1,685,394 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 842,697
shares of common stock for gross proceeds to Mandalay Media of $4,500,000. The
warrants have a five year term and an exercise price of $2.67 per share. The
funds were held in an escrow account pursuant to an Escrow Agreement, dated
October 23, 2008 and were released to Mandalay Media on or about November 8,
2008.
The
Merger and the AMV Acquisition both included the issuance of common stock as all
or part of the consideration. Based on the trading price of the common stock as
of the acquisition dates, the total consideration was approximately $67.5
million for the Merger and approximately $22.2 million for the AMV Acquisition.
Subsequent to the Merger and the AMV Acquisition, the average trading price of
the Common Stock has decreased significantly. If the decrease in trading price
is deemed to “not be temporary in nature”, management expects that an impairment
of goodwill and other long lived intangible assets could occur by year end.
Other factors affecting management’s estimate of impairment include the current
profitability and expected future cash flows from the acquired
business.

experienced in European platform management revenues. Games revenue includes
both licensed and internally developed games for use on mobile

The
increase in other content revenues over the second quarter of fiscal 2009 is
primarily due to the inclusion of revenues from AMV which was acquired in the

carrier sales as a result of a very challenging European sales environment.

License
fees represent costs payable to content providers for use of their intellectual
property in products sold. License fees have decreased as a result of
reductions in the revenue share attributable to several licensed product
arrangements and a significant change in mix towards product for which the
rights have been acquired in perpetuity. In addition license fees in the quarter
benefited from the reversal of previously accrued license fees in the quarter,
following resolution with providers. Other direct cost of revenues includes
costs to deliver products, and amortization of the intangibles identified as
part of the purchase price accounting and attributed to cost of revenues. The
increase in other direct costs is largely attributable to AMV cost of revenues.
The improvement in margin is due the mix changes noted above and the impact of
AMV, which has higher margin sales, and adjustments related to settlement
agreements with certain content providers.

Product
Development expenses include the costs to develop, edit and make content ready
for consumption on a mobile phone. The decrease in expenses compared
to the second quarter of the prior year are primarily the result of
restructuring during the year resulting in a reduction in employees,
particularly in the product development areas.
Sales and
Marketing Expenses represent the costs of sales and marketing personnel, and
advertising and marketing campaigns – advertising has increased significantly
with the AMV Acquisition in October 2008 due to the “direct to consumer” nature
of that business, with a significant element of direct marketing required to
stimulate revenues. In addition, a significant portion of AMV’s employee base is
classified as sales and marketing employees.
General
and administrative expenses represent management and support personnel costs in
each of the subsidiary companies and related expenses, as well as
professional and consulting costs, and other costs such as stock based
compensation, depreciation and bad debt expenses. The increase in
expenses over the second quarter in the prior year is largely the result of
higher professional costs in the quarter, including costs related to the
company’s restructuring initiatives.
Amortization
of intangibles represents amortization of the intangibles identified as part of
the purchase price accounting related to both acquisitions and attributed to
operating expenses.

to a asset disposals, partially offset by increased interest expense related to
the increase in the balance due under the ValueAct Note, and the addition of the
AMV Note, which represents deferred purchase consideration related to the AMV

revenue – expansion of the Play 4 Prizes platform and higher development revenue

for use on mobile phones.
The
increase in other content revenues over the first half of fiscal 2009 over the
prior year is primarily due to the inclusion of revenues from AMV Holding which
was acquired in the third quarter of fiscal 2009. This was partially
offset by decreased carrier sales as a result of a very challenging European
sales environment. Other content includes a broad range of licensed and

Development expenses include the costs to develop, edit and make content ready
for consumption on a mobile phone. The decrease in expenses compared
to the same period of the prior year are primarily the result of restructuring

professional and consulting costs, and other costs such as stock based

expenses over the same period in the prior year are the result of employee
reductions and cost savings initiatives implemented during the period, offset by
higher professional costs in the period, including costs related to the

Financial
Condition
Assets
Our
current assets totaled $14.7 million and $18.0 million at September 30, 2009 and
March 31, 2009, respectively. Total assets were $87.2 million and $91.2 million
at September 30, 2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The decrease in current
assets is primarily due to the lower cash balances. The decrease in total assets
is primarily due to the amortization of intangibles assets, as well as the
movement in cash balances.

Liabilities
and Working Capital
At
September 30, 2009, our total liabilities were $39.3 million. Our
current liabilities totaled $39.3 million and $42.1 million at September 30,
2009 and March 31, 2009, respectively. The change in current liabilities was
primarily related to the reduction in accounts payable and other current
liabilities. The Company had negative working capital of $24.7
million at September 30, 2009 and $24.1 million at March 31, 2009 as a result of
the timing of maturity of the ValueAct Note.

Twistbox
has incurred losses and negative annual cash flows since inception, although the
operating loss has narrowed significantly in the current period. AMV
has generally experienced profits and strongly positive cash flows. The primary
sources of liquidity have historically been issuance of common and preferred
stock, in the case of Twistbox, borrowings under credit facilities with
aggregate proceeds of $16.5 million. In the future, we anticipate that our
primary sources of liquidity will be cash generated by our operating
activities.
Operating
Activities
In the
six months ended September 30, 2009, we used $3.1 million of net cash, flowing
from the loss of $2.3 million as well as decreases in accounts payable of $2.2
million and in accrued license fees/other liabilities of $0.8 million, offset by
non cash stock based compensation and depreciation and
amortization. In the six months ended September 30, 2008, we used
$3.1 million of net cash in operating expenses. This primarily related to the
net loss of $6.4 million, and reductions in accrued license fees/other
liabilities of $1.7 million, partially offset by non cash stock based
compensation and depreciation and amortization included in the net loss and
increases in accounts payable.
As of
September 30, 2009, the Company had approximately $2.8 million of cash. The
Company has restructured its debt, as described in Note 8 to the financial
statements. Among other things, this provides for the due date to be
extended to July 31, 2010, an interest rate of 12.5% from the date of the
agreement through maturity, an extension of the payment in kind (“PIK”) election
through to the interest payment otherwise due in January 2010, and a reduction
in the minimum cash covenant to $1 million until January 31, 2010 and $4 million
thereafter, subject to certain conditions. In addition the Company and the
sellers of AMV Limited entered into an agreement which extended the maturity
date of the AMV Note, which represents deferred purchase consideration in
relation to the AMV Acquisition, until July 31, 2010.
The
Company’s cash requirements will be dependent on actions taken to improve cash
flow, including the debt restructuring and operational restructuring within the
subsidiaries. We may require additional cash resources due to changed business
conditions or other future developments, including any investments or
acquisitions we may decide to pursue. If these sources are insufficient to
satisfy our cash requirements, we may seek to sell additional debt securities or
additional equity securities or to obtain a credit facility. The sale of
convertible debt securities or additional equity securities could result in
additional dilution to our stockholders. The incurrence of increased
indebtedness would result in additional debt service obligations and could
result in additional operating and financial covenants that would restrict our
operations. In addition, there can be no assurance that any additional financing
will be available on acceptable terms, if at all.
Debt
obligations include interest payments under the ValueAct Note, payable at the
end of the term, in July 2010, and interest payments under the AMV Note, payable
at the end of the term, in July 2010. The ValueAct Note was amended during
fiscal 2009 such that the Company may elect to add interest to the principal,
with the full amount payable at the end of the term. The Company’s operating
lease obligations include non-cancelable operating leases for the Company’s
office facilities in several locations, expiring in various years through 2014.
Twistbox has entered into license agreements with various owners of brands and
other intellectual property in order to develop and publish branded products for
mobile handsets. Pursuant to some of these agreements, we are required to pay
minimum royalties over the term of the agreements regardless of actual
sales.
37
Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements
We do not
have any relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partners, such
as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities,
which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance
sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes. In
addition, we do not have any undisclosed borrowings or debt, and we have not
entered into any synthetic leases. We are, therefore, not materially exposed to
any financing, liquidity, market or credit risk that could arise if we had
engaged in such relationships.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk.
Our
current operations have exposure to interest rate risk that relates primarily to
our investment portfolio. All of our current investments are classified as cash
equivalents or short-term investments and carried at cost, which approximates
market value. We do not currently use or plan to use derivative financial
instruments in our investment portfolio. The risk associated with fluctuating
interest rates is limited to our investment portfolio, and we do not believe
that a 10% change in interest rates would have a significant impact on our
interest income, operating results or liquidity.
Currently,
our cash and cash equivalents are maintained by financial institutions in
the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Poland, Russia, Argentina and
Colombia, and our current deposits are likely in excess of insured limits. We
believe that the financial institutions that hold our investments are
financially sound and, accordingly, minimal credit risk exists with respect to
these investments. Our accounts receivable primarily relate to revenues earned
from domestic and international Mobile phone carriers. We perform ongoing credit
evaluations of our carriers’ financial condition but generally require no
collateral from them. As of September 30, 2009, our largest customer
represented approximately 12% of our gross accounts receivable
outstanding.
Foreign
Currency Risk
The
functional currencies of our United States, United Kingdom and German operations
are the United States Dollar, or USD, Pound Sterling and the Euro, respectively.
A significant portion of our business is conducted in currencies other than the
USD, the Pound or the Euro. Our revenues are usually denominated in the
functional currency of the carrier. Operating expenses are usually in the local
currency of the operating unit, which mitigates a portion of the exposure
related to currency fluctuations. Intercompany transactions between our domestic
and foreign operations are denominated in the USD, Pound or the Euro. At
month-end, foreign currency-denominated accounts receivable and intercompany
balances are marked to market and unrealized gains and losses are included in
other income (expense), net. Our foreign currency exchange gains and losses have
been generated primarily from fluctuations in the Euro and pound sterling versus
the USD and in the Euro versus the pound sterling. In the future, we may
experience foreign currency exchange losses on our accounts receivable and
intercompany receivables and payables. Foreign currency exchange losses could
have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial
condition.
Inflation
We do not
believe that inflation has had a material effect on our business, financial
condition or results of operations. If our costs were to become subject to
significant inflationary pressures, we might not be able to offset these higher
costs fully through price increases. Our inability or failure to do so could
harm our business, operating results and financial condition.
Members
of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer, Ray Schaaf, and
Principal Financial Officer, Russell Burke, have evaluated the effectiveness of
our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined by the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e), as of September
30, 2009, the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that
evaluation, Messrs. Schaaf and Burke concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are adequate and effective to ensure that material information was
made known to them by others within those entities, particularly during the
period for which this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q was prepared.
Changes
in Controls and Procedures
There
were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting or in other
factors identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d)
of Exchange Act Rules 13(a)-15 and 15(d)-15 that occurred during
the second quarter ended September 30, 2009 that have materially affected,
or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over
financial reporting.
