Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Organization and Nature of Business

Overview

FaceBank Group, Inc. (formerly Pulse Evolution Group, Inc.) (the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida in February 2009 under the name York Entertainment, Inc. The Company changed its name to Brick Top Productions, Inc. in October 2010, and to Carolco Pictures, Inc. in January 2015. Effective November 29, 2017, the Company’s corporate name was changed to Recall Studios, Inc. On February 28, 2019, the Company’s corporate name was changed to Pulse Evolution Group, Inc. Effective September 30, 2019, the Company’s name was changed to FaceBank Group, Inc. and its trading symbol was changed to FBNK.

The Company is a digital human technology company, focused on the development, collection, protection and preparation of the personal digital likeness assets, of celebrities and consumers, for use in artificial intelligence, entertainment, personal productivity and social networking.

Reverse Stock Split and Increase in Authorized Share Capital

On January 9, 2019, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to increase the authorized number of shares of its $0.0001 par value per share common stock to 400 million shares. The Company also effectuated a 1-for-30 reverse stock split of its common stock on February 28, 2019. All share and per share amounts for all periods presented are retroactively restated for the effect of the reverse stock split. All of the outstanding shares of Series X Preferred Stock also automatically converted into an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of common stock on February 28, 2019.

Note 2 – Liquidity, Going Concern and Management Plans

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business.

The Company had cash of $5.9 million, a working capital deficiency of $49.2 million and an accumulated deficit of $37.6 million at September 30, 2019. The Company incurred a $13.1 million net loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The Company expects to continue incurring losses in the foreseeable future and will need to raise additional capital to fund its operations, meet its obligations in the ordinary course of business and execute its longer-term business plan. These obligations include liabilities assumed in an acquisition that are in arrears and payable on demand. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year from the date that these financial statements are issued. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

The Company’s future capital requirements and the adequacy of its available funds will depend on many factors, including its ability to successfully commercialize its products and services, competing technological and market developments, and the need to enter into collaborations with other companies or acquire other companies or technologies to enhance or complement its product and service offerings.

Management believes that the Company has access to capital resources through potential issuances of debt and equity securities. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to execute its strategy and raise additional funds. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity securities for cash, to operate its business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in the case or equity financing.

Note 3 – Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation of such interim results.

(Formerly Pulse Evolution Group, Inc.)

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The results for the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2019 or for any future interim period. The unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2019 has been derived from audited financial statements; however, it does not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 10, 2019.

Principles of Consolidation

The Company’s policy is to consolidate all entities that it controls by ownership of a majority of the outstanding voting stock. In addition, the Company consolidates entities that meet the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which it is the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the entity. For consolidated entities that are less than wholly owned, the third party’s holding of equity interest is presented as Noncontrolling interests in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Stockholders’ Equity. The portion of net earnings attributable to the noncontrolling interests is presented as Net earnings (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its 99.7% owned principal operating subsidiary Evolution AI Corporation (“EAI”), 62.3% majority-owned operating subsidiary Nexway AG (“Nexway”), wholly-owned subsidiaries Facebank AG and StockAccess Holdings SAS (“SAH”), 70.0% majority-owned operating subsidiary Highlight Finance Corp. (“HFC”), inactive subsidiaries York Production LLC and York Production II LLC and its 54% majority owned subsidiary, Pulse Evolution Corporation (“PEC”). All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All subsidiaries acquired are consolidated from the date of acquisition.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Those estimates and assumptions include allocating the fair value of purchase consideration issued in business acquisitions, investments, depreciable lives of property and equipment, analysis of impairments of recorded goodwill and other long-term assets, accruals for potential liabilities, assumptions made in valuing derivative liabilities, assumptions made when estimating the fair value of equity instruments issued in share-based payment arrangements and deferred income taxes and related valuation allowance.

Significant Accounting Policies

For a detailed discussion about the Company’s significant accounting policies, see the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on June 10, 2019.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of 90 days or less at acquisition to be cash equivalents. There were no cash equivalents as of September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Fair value of financial instruments

The Company accounts for financial instruments under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, Fair Value Measurements. This statement defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. To increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels as follows:

Level 1 — quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 — observable inputs other than Level 1, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, and model-derived prices whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable; and

Level 3 — assets and liabilities whose significant value drivers are unobservable.

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Long-term investments

As described in Note 5 to these condensed consolidated financial statements, effective January 1, 2019, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-01 and related ASU 2018-03 concerning recognition and measurement of financial assets and financial liabilities. In adopting this new guidance, the Company has made an accounting policy election to adopt an adjusted cost method measurement alternative for investments in equity securities without readily determinable fair values.

For equity investments that are accounted for using the measurement alternative, the Company initially records equity investments that qualify for the measurement alternative at cost, but is required to adjust the carrying value of such equity investments through earnings when there is an observable transaction involving the same or a similar investment with the same issuer or upon an impairment.

For equity investments that result in the Company having significant influence, but not control, of an entity, the Company applies the equity method of accounting.

Loans for which the Company has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity are classified as held for investment and accounted for at cost, adjusted for unamortized premiums and discounts, net of allowance for loan losses.

As of September 30, 2019, the Company’s long-term investments consist of its investment in Panda Productions (HK) Limited (“Panda”) and an equity investment in shares and a term loan to P8H, Inc. (“Paddle8”). Refer to Note 5 for further information on the Company’s long-term investments.

Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for contractual credits and doubtful accounts. The Company records allowances for doubtful accounts receivable based upon expected collectability. The reserve is generally established based upon an analysis of its aged receivables. Additionally, if necessary, a specific reserve for individual accounts is recorded when the Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of a bankruptcy filing or deterioration in the customer’s operating results or financial position. The Company also regularly reviews the allowance by considering factors such as historical collections experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable balance and current economic conditions that may affect a customer’s ability to pay. If actual bad debts differ from the reserves calculated, the Company records an adjustment to bad debt expense in the period in which the difference occurs.

Concentrations

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, no customer accounted for more than 10% of sales and accounts receivable.

Sequencing

On July 30, 2019, the Company adopted a sequencing policy under ASC 815-40-35 whereby in the event that reclassification of contracts from equity to assets or liabilities is necessary pursuant to ASC 815 due to the Company’s inability to demonstrate it has sufficient authorized shares as a result of certain securities with a potentially indeterminable number of shares, shares will be allocated on the basis of the earliest issuance date of potentially dilutive instruments, with the earliest grants receiving the first allocation of shares. Pursuant to ASC 815, issuance of securities to the Company’s employees or directors are not subject to the sequencing policy.

Leases

Effective January 1, 2019, the Company accounts for its leases under ASC 842, Leases. Under this guidance, arrangements meeting the definition of a lease are classified as operating or financing leases and are recorded on the consolidated balance sheet as both a right of use asset and lease liability, calculated by discounting fixed lease payments over the lease term at the rate implicit in the lease or the Company’s incremental borrowing rate. Lease liabilities are increased by interest and reduced by payments each period, and the right of use asset is amortized over the lease term. For operating leases, interest on the lease liability and the amortization of the right of use asset result in straight-line rent expense over the lease term. The adoption of ASC 842 did not have an effect on the Company’s condensed consolidated results of operations or cash flows, due to the leases having a term of less than one year.

In calculating the right of use asset and lease liability, the Company elects to combine lease and non-lease components. The Company excludes short-term leases having initial terms of 12 months or less, if any, from the new guidance as an accounting policy election, and recognizes rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(Formerly Pulse Evolution Group, Inc.)

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The Company continues to account for leases in the prior period financial statements under ASC Topic 840.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The Company recognizes revenue from contracts with customers under ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (the “revenue standard”). The core principle of the revenue standard is that a company should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. A good or service is transferred to a customer when, or as, the customer obtains control of that good or service. The following five steps are applied to achieve that core principle:

The Company recognized revenue from contracts with customers of approximately $5.8 million during the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2019, primarily from the sale of software licenses. Revenue from the sale of software licenses are recognized as a single performance obligation at the point in time that the software license is delivered to the customer.

The following presents our revenues from contracts with customers disaggregated by major business activity (in thousands):

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions

Assets and liabilities of foreign subsidiaries having non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are translated at exchange rates at the end of a period. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the period. The gains or losses resulting from translating foreign currency financial statements into U.S. dollars, net of taxes, if any, are reported as a separate component of Accumulated Other comprehensive income (loss) within stockholders’ equity. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in Other income (expense) in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As the acquisition of Nexway occurred on September 19, 2019, foreign currency translation and transactions costs were deemed immaterial.

Deferred tax liability

The Company recognized $1.2 million of deferred tax liabilities related to the Facebank AG acquisition, and $0.5 million related to the Nexway acquisition during the three months ended September 30, 2019, and $36.9 million of deferred tax liabilities related to the EAI acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2018. The following is a rollforward of the Company’s deferred tax liability from January 1, 2019 to September 30, 2019 (in thousands):

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Net Loss Per Share

Net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share is the same for all periods presented, as the effect of the potential common stock equivalents is anti-dilutive due to the Company’s net loss position for all periods presented. Anti-dilutive securities, which are convertible into the Company’s common stock, consist of the following at September 30, 2019 and 2018:

Convertible Preferred Stock

Preferred shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as liability instruments and are measured at fair value. The Company classifies conditionally redeemable preferred shares, 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 (“mezzanine”) until such time as the conditions are removed or lapse.

Segment reporting

The Company has only one operating segment and reporting unit. The Company defines its segments as those business units whose operating results are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) to analyze performance and allocate resources. The Company’s CODM is its Chief Executive Officer. As of September 30, 2019 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the CODM only reviews consolidated results to analyze performance and allocate resources.

Revenues, classified by the major geographic areas in which our customers were located, were as follows (in thousands):

As the Company continues to integrate the operations acquired in the Nexway and Facebank AG acquisitions, such integration may result in multiple reportable segments and reporting units in future periods.

Recently issued and adopted accounting pronouncements

The Company continually assesses any new accounting pronouncements to determine their applicability. When it is determined that a new accounting pronouncement affects the Company’s financial reporting, the Company undertakes a study to determine the consequences of the change to its consolidated financial statements and assures that there are proper controls in place to ascertain that the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements properly reflect the change.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) which supersedes FASB Topic 840, Leases (Topic 840) and provides principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases for both lessees and lessors. The new standard requires lessees to apply a dual approach, classifying leases as either finance or operating leases based on the principle of whether or not the lease is effectively a financed purchase by the lessee. This classification will determine whether lease expense is recognized based on an effective interest method or on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, respectively. A lessee is also required to record a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a term of greater than twelve months regardless of classification. Leases with a term of twelve months or less will be accounted for similar to existing guidance for operating leases. In January 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-01, Leases (Topic 842) Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842, which amends ASU 2016-02 to provide entities an optional transition practical expedient to not evaluate under Topic 842 existing or expired land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases under the current leases guidance in Topic 842. An entity that elects this practical expedient should evaluate new or modified land easements under Topic 842 beginning at the date that the entity adopts Topic 842. The standard will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted upon issuance. The Company adopted this standard on January 1, 2019. The impact of this adoption was immaterial. See Note 13 for more information.

In July 2017, the FASB has issued a two-part ASU No. 2017-11, (i) Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Down Round Features and (ii) Replacement of the Indefinite Deferral for Mandatorily Redeemable Financial Instruments of Certain Nonpublic Entities and Certain Mandatorily Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests with a Scope Exception which simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with down round features, a provision in an equity-linked financial instrument (or embedded feature) that provides a downward adjustment of the current exercise price based on the price of future equity offerings. It is effective for public business entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of ASU 2017-11 did not have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment. ASU 2017-04 removes Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test, which requires a hypothetical purchase price allocation. A goodwill impairment will now be the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. This standard will be effective for the Company beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and is required to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for interim or annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2017-04 to have a material impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

(Formerly Pulse Evolution Group, Inc.)

Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework-Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2018-13”). The amendments in ASU 2018-13 modify the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements based on the concepts in the Concepts Statement, including the consideration of costs and benefits. The amendments on changes in unrealized gains and losses, the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements, and the narrative description of measurement uncertainty should be applied prospectively for only the most recent interim or annual period presented in the initial fiscal year of adoption. All other amendments should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented upon their effective date. The amendments are effective for all entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company is currently evaluating ASU 2018-13 and its impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”), amending revenue recognition guidance and requiring more detailed disclosures to enable users of financial statements to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The core principle of Topic 606 is that revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Additional ASUs have been issued that are part of the overall new revenue guidance including: (i) ASU 2016-08, “Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net),” (ii) ASU 2016-10, “Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing,” (iii) ASU 2016-20, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers” and (iv) ASU 2016-12, “Narrow Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,” which clarified guidance on certain items such as reporting revenue as a principal or agent, identifying performance obligations. Concurrent with the acquisition of Nexway, the Company adopted ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as amended (Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606) (ASC 606) using the modified retrospective method applied to those contracts which were not completed the acquisition date. The Company also elected to use the practical expedient that allows an entity to expense the incremental cost of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that an entity otherwise would have recognized is less than one year.

Note 4 – Acquisitions

EAI acquisition

The EAI acquisition which occurred on August 8, 2018, was accounted for using acquisition method of accounting. The aggregate of the purchase price, plus net liabilities assumed was allocated to separately identifiable assets and the excess was recorded as goodwill. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price was based upon a valuation for which the estimates and assumptions are subject to change during the one year measurement period, which ended August 7, 2019. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a measurement period adjustment to reduce acquisition date accrued expenses by $1.9 million, which resulted in a corresponding decrease to goodwill. In addition, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company recorded a lease settlement liability measurement period adjustment of $0.1 million which should have been accrued at the time of the acquisition. This lease settlement liability was settled during the first quarter of 2019 with the issuance of 18,935 shares (see Note 14).

The Company allocated the purchase consideration to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as summarized in the table below (in thousands except for share and per share amounts):
