YOU ON DEMAND HOLDINGS, INC. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES
 
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.
Basis of Presentation

YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“YOU On Demand”, “we”, “us”, or “the Company”) , operates in the Chinese media segment through our Chinese subsidiaries and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) (1) an integrated value-added service solutions business for the delivery of video on demand (“VOD”) and enhanced premium content for cable providers, Beijing Sino Top Scope Technology Co., Ltd. (“Sinotop Beijing” or “Sinotop”), (2) a cable broadband business, Jinan Guangdian Jia He Broadband Co. Ltd. ( “Jinan Broadband”), based in the Jinan region of China through which we provide cable and wireless broadband services, principally internet services, Internet Protocol Point wholesale services, related network equipment rental and sales, and fiber network construction and maintenance and (3) a print based media and television programming guide publication, Shandong Lushi Media Co., Ltd. (“Shandong Media”). Effective July 1, 2012, the Company deconsolidated Shandong Media.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of YOU On Demand and (a) its wholly-owned subsidiary China Broadband, Ltd., ("CB Cayman"), (b) two wholly-owned subsidiaries of CB Cayman: Beijing China Broadband Network Technology Co., Ltd. (“WFOE”) and Sinotop Group Limited (“Sinotop Hong Kong”) and (c) six entities located in the PRC: Jinan Zhong Kuan, Jinan Broadband, Shandong Media, Sinotop, Zhong Hai Shi Xun Information Technology Co., Ltd. (“Zhong Hai Video”), and YOU On Demand (Beijing) Technology Co., Ltd. (“YOD WFOE”), which are controlled by the Company through contractual arrangements, as if they are majority owned subsidiaries of the Company.  As of July 1, 2012, Shandong Media was deconsolidated because it was no longer a VIE of the Company.   All material intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

In the opinion of management, our Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal, recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and with the instructions to Form 10-Q in Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted. These unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 5, 2013.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year information has been reclassified to be comparable with the current period presentation.  This reclassification has no effect on previously reported net loss.

In presenting the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2012, we presented accounts receivable, net as a separate line item.  In presenting the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheet at March 31, 2013, we reclassified accounts receivable, net amounting to $382 to other current assets.

2.
Going Concern and Management’s Plans

For the three months ended March 31, 2013, we had a net loss of approximately $3,345,000 and we used cash for operations of approximately $2,016,000. We had a working capital deficit of approximately $9,215,000 and accumulated deficit of approximately $62 million, at March 31, 2013. The Company will continue to rely on debt and equity to pay for ongoing operating expenses in order to execute its business plan. We have the ability to raise funds by various methods including utilization of our $50 million shelf registration of which $47.3 million is remaining as well as other means of financing such as debt or private investment. However, financing may not be available to the Company on terms acceptable to us or at all or that such resources will be received in a timely manner. Further we may need approval to seek additional financing from the shareholders from the August 2012 private financing in the event we do a public financing.

 
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. We anticipate that we will need to raise additional funds to fully implement our business model and related strategies.

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.   The Company's independent registered public accounting firm's report of the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, contained an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

VIE Structure and Arrangements

Management Services Agreement

Pursuant to a Management Services Agreement, dated as of March 9, 2010, between Sinotop Beijing and Sinotop Hong Kong (the “Management Services Agreement”), Sinotop Hong Kong has the exclusive right to provide to Sinotop Beijing management, financial and other services related to the operation of Sinotop Beijing’s business, and Sinotop Beijing is required to take all commercially reasonable efforts to permit and facilitate the provision of the services by Sinotop Hong Kong. As compensation for providing the services, Sinotop Hong Kong is entitled to receive a fee from Sinotop Beijing, upon demand, equal to 100% of the annual Net Profits of Sinotop Beijing during the term of the Management Services Agreement (Sinotop Hong Kong may request ad hoc quarterly payments of the aggregate fee, which payments will be credited against Sinotop Hong Kong’s future payment obligations).
The Management Services Agreement also provides Sinotop Hong Kong or its designee with a right of first refusal to acquire all or any portion of the equity of Sinotop Beijing upon any proposal by the sole shareholder of Sinotop Beijing to transfer such equity. In addition, at the sole discretion of Sinotop Hong Kong, Sinotop Beijing may be obligated to transfer to Sinotop Hong Kong or its designee any part or all of the business, personnel, assets and operations of Sinotop Beijing which may be lawfully conducted, employed, owned or operated by Sinotop Hong Kong, including:

 
(a)
business opportunities presented to, or available to Sinotop Beijing may be pursued and contracted for in the name of Sinotop Hong Kong rather than Sinotop Beijing, and at its discretion Sinotop Hong Kong may employ the resources of Sinotop Beijing to secure such opportunities;

 
(b)
any tangible or intangible property of Sinotop Beijing, any contractual rights, any personnel, and any other items or things of value held by Sinotop Beijing may be transferred to Sinotop Hong Kong at book value;

 
(c)
real property, personal or intangible property, personnel, services, equipment, supplies and any other items useful for the conduct of the Business may be obtained by Sinotop Hong Kong by acquisition, lease, license or otherwise, and made available to Sinotop Beijing on terms to be determined by agreement between Sinotop Hong Kong and Sinotop Beijing;

 
(d)
contracts entered into in the name of Sinotop Beijing may be transferred to Sinotop Hong Kong, or the work under such contracts may be subcontracted, in whole or in part, to Sinotop Hong Kong, on terms to be determined by agreement between Sinotop Hong Kong and Sinotop Beijing; and

 
(e)
any changes to, or any expansion or contraction of, the Business may be carried out in the exercise of the sole discretion of Sinotop Hong Kong, and in the name of and at the expense of, Sinotop Hong Kong;

provided, however, that none of the foregoing may cause or have the effect of terminating (without being substantially replaced under the name of Sinotop Hong Kong) or adversely affecting any license, permit or regulatory status of Sinotop Beijing.
 

The term of the Management Services Agreement is 20 years, and may not be terminated by Sinotop Beijing except with the consent of, or a material breach by, Sinotop Hong Kong.

Equity Pledge Agreement

Pursuant to an Equity Pledge Agreement among Sinotop Hong Kong, Sinotop Beijing and the sole shareholder of Sinotop Beijing (the “Shareholder”), dated March 9, 2010, the Shareholder pledged all of its equity interests in Sinotop Beijing (the “Collateral”) to Sinotop Hong Kong as security for the performance of the obligations of Sinotop Beijing to make all of the required management fee payments pursuant to the Management Services Agreement. The term of the Equity Pledge Agreement expires two years from Sinotop Beijing’s satisfaction of all obligations under the Management Services Agreement.

Option Agreement

Pursuant to an Option Agreement among Sinotop Hong Kong, Sinotop Beijing and the sole shareholder of Sinotop Beijing (the “Shareholder”), dated March 9, 2010, and entered into in connection with the Management Services Agreement, the Shareholder granted an exclusive option to Sinotop Hong Kong or its designee to purchase, at any time and from time to time, to the extent permitted under PRC law, all or any portion of the Shareholder’s equity in Sinotop Beijing. The aggregate purchase price of the option is equal to the paid-in registered capital of the Shareholder. The term of the agreement is until all of the equity interest in Sinotop Beijing held by the Shareholder is transferred to Sinotop Hong Kong or its designee, or until the maximum period allowed by law has run, and may not be terminated by any party to the agreement without the consent of the other parties.

Voting Rights Proxy Agreement

Pursuant to a Voting Rights Proxy Agreement among Sinotop Hong Kong, Sinotop Beijing and the sole shareholder of Sinotop Beijing (the “Shareholder”), dated March 9, 2010, the Shareholder granted to Sinotop Hong Kong an irrevocable proxy, for the maximum period of time permitted by law, all of its voting rights as a shareholder of Sinotop Beijing. The Shareholder may not transfer any of its equity interest in Sinotop Beijing to any party other than Sinotop Hong Kong. The Voting Rights Proxy Agreement may not be terminated except upon the written consent of all parties, or unilaterally by Sinotop Hong Kong upon 30 days’ notice.

Jinan Broadband

The corporate structure for our broadband business consists of:

 
a Cooperation Agreement, dated as of December 26, 2006, between CB Cayman and Jinan Parent (the “December 2006 Cooperation Agreement”);
 
a Cooperation Agreement dated as of January 2007, between Jinan Broadband and Networks Center (the “January 2007 Cooperation Agreement”); and
 
two Exclusive Service Agreements, dated December 2006 and March 2007, between Jinan Broadband, Jinan Parent and Networks Center (collectively, the “Exclusive Service Agreements”).

Pursuant to the December 2006 Cooperation Agreement, CB Cayman and Jinan Parent set up a joint venture, Jinan Broadband. CB Cayman contributed in cash and owns a 51% controlling interest, and Jinan Parent contributed the assets in exchange of 49% ownership in Jinan broadband. Jinan Broadband is a corporate joint venture with a term of 20 years. Jinan Broadband is considered as a VIE based on ASC 810-10-25-38 due to the fact that CB Cayman has a controlling financial interest in Jinan Broadband and therefore deemed to be the primary beneficiary based on the terms stipulated in the December 2006 Cooperation Agreement below:

 
CB Cayman appointed 3 directors and Jinan Parent appointed 2 directors;
 
The general manager and financial manager are appointed by CB Cayman; and
 
CB Cayman is entitled to receive 51% of net profit/loss of Jinan Broadband.

 
Pursuant to the January 2007 Cooperation Agreement, Networks Center, the PRC governmental agency which controls Jinan Parent, affirmed the arrangement set forth in the December 2006 Cooperation Agreement which provided that all of the pre-tax revenues of Jinan Broadband would be assigned to our WFOE for 20 years.

Under the terms of the Exclusive Service Agreements, Jinan Broadband is obligated to provide certain technical services needed by Jinan Parent and is entitled to receive 100% of the pre-tax revenue of access services from Jinan Parent as a service charge in exchange.

Shandong Media

Effective July 1, 2012, we deconsolidated Shandong Media due to a decrease in ownership from 50% to 30%.

On March 7, 2008, we entered into the Shandong Cooperation Agreement with the Shandong Newspaper Entities. The Shandong Cooperation Agreement provided for, among other terms, the creation of a joint venture entity in the PRC, Shandong Media, which would own and operate the television program guide, newspaper and magazine publishing businesses previously owned and operated by the Shandong Newspaper Entities pursuant to exclusive licenses. In addition, Shandong Media entered into an exclusive advertising agency agreement and an exclusive consulting services agreement with the Shandong Newspaper Entities and another third party, Music Review Press, which requires that the Shandong Newspaper Entities and Music Review Press shall appoint Shandong Media as their exclusive advertising agent and provider of technical and management support for a fee.

Under the terms of the Shandong Cooperation Agreement and related pledge and trust documents, the Shandong Newspaper Entities contributed their entire Shandong newspaper business and transferred certain employees to Shandong Media in exchange for a 50% stake in Shandong Media, with the other 50% of Shandong Media to be owned directly by Jinan Zhong Kuan and indirectly by our WFOE in the PRC in the second quarter of 2008, with the joint venture becoming operational in July of 2008. In exchange, therefore, the Shandong Cooperation Agreement provided for total initial consideration from us of approximately $1.5 million (approximately 10 million RMB). As part of the transaction, and to facilitate our subsidiary’s ownership and control over Shandong Newspaper under PRC law, through our WFOE in the PRC, this acquisition was completed in accordance with a pledge and loan agreement, pursuant to which all of the shares of Shandong Media which we acquired are held in trust on our behalf by a nominee holder, as security for a loan to Shandong Media’s parent seller.

On January 19, 2012, through Jinan Zhong Kuan, we entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the Shandong Newspaper Entities pursuant to which we expressed the intention to amend the terms of the Shandong Cooperation Agreement to transfer an aggregate of 20% of our ownership interest in Shandong Media to the Shandong Newspaper Entities. Shandong Media received notice of approval by the PRC State Administration for Industry & Commerce to effect the changes made in the Articles of Association and complete the transaction. The equity transfer ownership was effective as of July 1, 2012, and we have deconsolidated Shandong Media and recorded our 30% ownership under the equity method of accounting.

We are entitled to 100% of the pre-tax income of Jinan Zhong Kuan, in two ways which are discussed below. First, there are two individual owners of Jinan Zhong Kuan which hold all of the equity in that company in trust for the benefit of CB Cayman, pursuant to trustee arrangements entered into with them in 2008. The trustee arrangements relieve the individual shareholders from any responsibilities for the day-to-day operations of the company and any liability arising from their role as equity holders. All actions taken by them as shareholders will be in accordance with instructions provided by CB Cayman. The trustee arrangements provide that, in consideration for an up-front fee paid by CB Cayman, and monthly cash payments thereafter, the equity holders of Jinan Zhong Kuan will hold the equity of Jinan Zhong Kuan in trust for, and only for the benefit of, CB Cayman. We believe CB Cayman’s right to receive 100% of the dividends paid on the equity held in trust for it by the two individuals is appropriate under PRC transfer pricing rules, which are found in Arts. 41-48 of the PRC Enterprise Income Tax Law and Arts. 109-123 of the Implementing Regulations thereunder, and complies with the “arm’s length principle” mandated by Art. 41 of the Enterprise Income Tax Law, because those individuals have no responsibilities and take no risk in connection with their role as trustee shareholders other than to vote when requested and as directed by CB Cayman.

 
As a practical matter, however, there are not likely to be any dividends paid on the equity of Jinan Zhong Kuan, because all of its pre-tax income is required to be paid over to the WFOE under the terms of an exclusive services agreement entered into in January 2008. Under the terms of the exclusive services agreement, the WFOE is obligated to provide all management, technical and support services needed by Jinan Zhong Kuan and is entitled to receive 100% of the pre-tax income of Jinan Zhong Kuan in exchange. Jinan Zhong Kuan has no income other than profit distributions from Shandong Media. Jinan Zhong Kuan and our WFOE are related parties, and all of the risk and burden of the operations of Jinan Zhong Kuan is shifted to the WFOE under the exclusive services agreement, and therefore all of the economic benefit is shifted to the WFOE, as well. If the PRC tax authorities were to disagree with our position regarding the pricing under the exclusive services agreement between Jinan Zhong Kuan and the WFOE, there is no potential for past-due tax liability with respect to Jinan Zhong Kuan because, as noted above, Jinan Zhong Kuan has never recognized any profits.

The Company, through CB Cayman, is the sole owner of the WFOE, and exercises the overall voting power over the WFOE. In addition, through the various contractual agreements between CB Cayman, the trustees, the WFOE and Jinan Zhong Kuan, as discussed above, Jinan Zhong Kuan is considered a VIE. As the Company bears all risks and is entitled to all benefits relating to the investment in Jinan Zhong Kuan, the Company is a primary beneficiary of Jinan Zhong Kuan and is required to consolidate Jinan Zhong Kuan under the variable interest model. With respect to Shandong Media, it cannot finance its own activities without the cash contribution from Jinan Zhong Kuan. In addition, apart from its equity interest in Shandong Media, Jinan Zhong Kuan has the obligation to bear expected losses and receive expected returns through the exclusive services agreement, which entitles Jinan Zhong Kuan to all net profits of Shandong Media.

Content Accounting

The Company obtains content through content license agreements and revenue sharing agreements with studios and distributors. The license agreement may or may not be recognized in licensed content.

When the license fee is not known or reasonably determinable for a specific title, the title does not meet the criteria for recognition in licensed content in accordance with ASC 920-350-25-2. We expense as costs of revenues the greater of revenue sharing costs incurred through the end of the reporting period or the proportionate value of total minimum license fees expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of each license agreement. As the Company expenses license fees on a straight-line basis, it may result in deferred or prepaid license fees. Prepaid license fees are classified as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets as licensed content and deferred license fees are classified as a liability on the consolidated balance sheets as deferred license fees. Commitments for license agreements that do not meet the criteria for recognition in licensed content are discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements.
 
5.
Property and Equipment

During 2012, we reviewed the equipment assets at our Jinan Broadband subsidiary and determined that an additional impairment should be recorded based on the estimated realizable values. We initially reserved a portion of these assets in 2010. During 2012, we recorded an additional estimated impairment of $840,000 related to the facilities and machinery assets. The assets being impaired are considered to have no salvageable value.

The Company has intangible assets primarily relating to the acquisitions of Jinan Broadband and Sinotop Hong Kong. The Company amortizes its intangible assets that have finite lives. For Jinan Broadband, we reclassified $159,132 from fixed assets to software and licenses during the quarter ended June 30, 2012.

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require the categorization of financial assets and liabilities, based on the inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The various levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:

 
Level 1 — Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on unadjusted quoted market prices for identical assets and liabilities in an active market that we have the ability to access.
 
 
Level 2 — Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or model inputs that are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 
Level 3 — Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Accounting standards require the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Common stock is valued at closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded.

Annually we review the valuation techniques used and determine if the fair value measurements are still appropriate and evaluate and adjust the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements based on current market conditions and third party information. There were no changes in the valuations techniques during the current year.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively:

Sinotop Contingent Consideration

In connection with the acquisition of Sinotop Hong Kong on July 30, 2010, if specified performance milestones are achieved, Weicheng Liu (“Mr. Liu” or “the Seller”) will be entitled to earn up to (i) an additional 403,820 shares of common stock of the Company, (ii) three-year warrants to purchase 571,275 shares of the Company’s common stock, equivalent to 5.0% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying all outstanding warrants as of immediately following the closing of the July 2010 financing and (iii) a four-year option to purchase 80,000 shares of the Company’s common stock which was equal to 5% of the total number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying all outstanding options of the Company granted to individuals employed by the Company as of September 1, 2010 (collectively, the securities referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) are referred to herein as the “Earn-Out Securities”). The milestones are as follows: Sinotop Hong Kong will ensure that (i) at the end of the first earn-out year (July 1, 2012), at least 3 million homes will have access to the Company’s VOD services, (ii) at the end of the second earn-out year (July 1, 2013), at least 11 million homes will have access to the Company’s VOD services, and (iii) at the end of the third earn-out year (July 1, 2014), at least 30 million homes will have access to the Company’s VOD services.
 
 
Subsequent to the acquisition of Sinotop, the Company underwent a warrant exchange that converted the three-year warrants to be potentially earned under clause (ii) above to 332,002 shares of common stock. As such, the Earn-Out Securities subject to the achievement of the specified performance milestones were 735,822 shares of common stock and a four-year option to purchase 80,000 shares of common stock.

The Company recorded a contingent consideration obligation related to the Earn-Out Securities at the time of acquisition which totaled $2,750,966, representing the fair value of the estimated payment of the full earn-out. The contingent consideration is classified as a liability because the earn-out securities do not meet the fixed-for-fixed criteria under ASC 815-40-15 for equity classification. Further ASC 815-40-15 requires us to re-measure the contingent consideration obligation at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the consolidated statements of operations and, accordingly, we reported a loss of $41,648 and $712,065for the three months ended March 31, 2013and 2012, respectively.

At the end of the first earn-out year (July 1, 2012), the first milestone was achieved with over 3 million homes having access to our VOD services. As such, we issued 245,274 shares of our common stock and 26,667 options to Mr. Liu.

The following is a summary of the earned purchase price consideration and the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration obligation for the acquisition of Sinotop Hong Kong at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012.

$3M Convertible Note

On May 10, 2012, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Shane McMahon, made a loan to the Company in the amount of $3,000,000. In consideration for the loan, the Company issued a convertible note to Mr. McMahon in the aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000 (the “Note”). Upon issuance, the conversion price of the Note was equal to the price per share paid for securities by investors in the most recent financing (as of the date of conversion) of equity or equity-linked securities of the Company. Thereafter, on May 21, 2012, at the Company’s request, the Company and Mr. McMahon entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Note, pursuant to which the price per share at which the Note, or any convertible Securities into which the Note is converted, may be converted into shares of the Company’s common stock, shall not be less than $4.75, which amount represents the closing bid price of the Company’s common stock on the trading day immediately prior to the date of the Note in accordance with the rules and regulations of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc.
 
 
On April 12, 2013, the Majority Shareholders approved an amendment to Section 3(a)(i) of the Note, as amended on May 21, 2012, to remove the $4.75 floor to the conversion price of the Note and such approval and such amendment will be effective following the expiration of the 20-day period mandated by Rule 14c-2.
 
Effective May 10, 2013, the Company and Mr. McMahon entered into Amendment No. 3 to the note pursuant to which (i) the Note will mature on November 10, 2013, and (ii) the net proceeds of any financing of equity or equity-linked securities of the Company occurring on or before such date will be used to repay the Note until the full amount of the Note, and all accrued interest on the Note, is repaid.

Retail Financing, December 2012

On December 14, 2012, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Chardan Capital Markets LLC, as representative of several underwriters, and National Securities Corporation, as qualified independent underwriter (collectively, the “Underwriters”) in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of 1,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at a price to the public of $1.50 per share. The Company received net proceeds from this offering of $2,193,738, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions. The shares were offered and sold under a prospectus supplement and related prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-183689). The offering closed on December 19, 2012.

11. 
Private Financing, August 2012

On August 30, 2012, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which the Company offered the Investors the option to purchase either (i) Class A Units, with each Class A Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share and (b) a common stock purchase warrant (each a “Warrant,” and, collectively, the “Warrants”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $4.25 per share, or (ii) Class B Units, with each Class B Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s Series C Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share, and a Warrant. The per unit price for each of the Class A Units and the Class B Units was $4.00.

On August 30, 2012, the Company closed the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and issued and sold to Investors (i) an aggregate of 646,250 Class A Units (consisting of an aggregate of 646,250 shares of Common Stock and Warrants to purchase 646,250 shares of Common Stock), and (ii) an aggregate of 250,000 Class B Units (consisting of an aggregate of 250,000 shares of Series C Preferred Stock and Warrants to purchase 250,000 shares of Common Stock). The Company received aggregate gross proceeds of $3,585,000.
 
The proceeds from the sale were allocated to Common Stock, Series C Convertible, Preferred Stock, warrants and beneficial conversion features based on the relative fair value of the securities in accordance with ASC 470-20-30. The value of the Common Stock and Series C Preferred stock was based on the closing price paid by investors. The fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes model with the following assumptions: expected life of 5 years, expected dividend rate of 0%, volatility of 75% and an interest rate of .66%. The exercise price of the warrants is $4.25.

The Company recognized a beneficial conversion feature discount on Series C Convertible Preferred Stock at its intrinsic value, which was the fair value of the common stock at the commitment date for Series C Convertible Preferred Stock investment, less the effective conversion price. The Company recognized approximately $342,000 of beneficial conversion feature as an increase in additional paid in capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet on the date of issuance of Series C Convertible Preferred Stocks since these shares were convertible at the issuance date. The Series C Preferred Stock is classified as temporary equity at March 31, 2013, based on its conversion characteristics. The Series C Preferred Stock is not deemed to be an embedded derivative instrument to be bifurcated since it’s indexed to its own stock.

In accordance with FASB ASC 815-40-15-5, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock”, the warrants have been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the consolidated statement of operations.  On August 30, 2012, such warrants were valued at $1,525,000 utilizing a valuation model and were initially recorded as a liability. As of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the warrant liability was re-valued using the Monte Carlo valuation as disclosed in Note 7, Fair Value Measurement, and was adjusted to its current fair value of approximately $904,000 and $878,000 as determined by the Company, resulting in a loss of approximately $25,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
 
 
As a result of the Negative Clawback provisions included in the warrant agreement we have reset the exercise price from $4.25 per share to $1.50 per share. The fair value calculation on our warrant liability includes this reset.

The Purchase Agreement contained customary representations, warranties and covenants. In addition, the Company agreed to a negative clawback provision. Under the Negative Clawback, if at any time after the closing the Company consummated an underwritten public offering with respect to the purchase and sale of Common Stock or preferred stock (collectively, “Additional Securities”) of the Company resulting in a price per share of such Additional Securities (after giving effect to the conversion of any preferred stock to be issued in the Subsequent Public Financing) of less than $4.00, then, simultaneously with the closing of such Subsequent Public Financing, the Company shall be obligated to issue to each Investor of Class A Units only, for no additional consideration, that number of Common Shares as is equal to (i) the number of Common Shares that would have been issuable to such Class A Investor at closing if the Per Unit Purchase Price were equal to the greater of (A) the Public Financing Price and (B) $2.50, minus (ii) the number of Common Shares issued to the Class A Investor at the closing. As a result of our December 2012 retail financing the Company adjusted the number of shares in accordance with the negative clawback provisions and recorded a charge to operations of $659,000 for the issuance of additional shares. As of March 31, 2013, the Company accrued such charge which is included in other current liabilities since it was subject to shareholders’ approval which was approved in the second quarter of 2013.

The holder of shares of Series C Preferred Stock does not have the right to vote and does not have full voting rights and powers equal to the voting rights and powers of holders of the Company’s Common Stock. In addition, the holders of Series C Preferred Stock is not entitled to convert any shares of Series C Preferred Stock into shares of the Common Stock if, after giving effect to the conversion, such holder would hold in excess of 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Each share of Series C Preferred Stock is convertible, at any time at the option of the holder, into such number of shares of common stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to be converted, multiplied by (ii) $4.00 divided by (iii) the conversion price, which is equal to the lesser of (x) $4.00 and (y) the price per share paid by investors in a Subsequent Public Financing; provided , however , that the conversion price shall not, in any event, be less than $2.50. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion price shall equal $4.00, and there shall be no adjustment to the conversion price resulting from the price per share paid by investors in a Subsequent Public Financing, until the provisions of the Certificate regarding the adjustment to the conversion price are approved by shareholders holding a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company. As a result of our December 2012 retail financing, we adjusted the conversion price of the Preferred C Shares to the floor of $2.50 and as such reflected the additional value amounting to $924,000 as a deemed dividend in the consolidated statement of operations in the year ended December 31, 2012.

Lastly, related to the August 2012 financings, the Company paid to the placement agent issuance costs of approximately $119,000 and issued shares and warrants.  As of March 31, 2013, the shares and warrants were valued at approximately $471,000.

(a)
The Company accounts for its stock option awards pursuant to the provisions of ASC 718, Stock Compensation. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton valuation model. The Company recognizes the fair value of each option as compensation expense ratably using the straight-line attribution method over the service period, which is generally the vesting period. The Black-Scholes Merton model incorporated the following assumptions for the options granted in 2012: risk-free interest rate of 1.73% to 1.98%, expected volatility of 75%, expected life of 10.0 years and expected dividend yield of 0%.  There have been no options granted in 2013.
 
 
(b)
During 2012, the Company appointed two new “independent” (as defined under the NASDAQ listing requirements) members to the Board of Directors. In connection with the appointment we granted each of our three “independent” directors 10,000 restricted shares to be vested quarterly over one year.
 
Also, during 2012, the Company granted 196,620 shares to certain consultants and Directors for services. As of March 31, there were 210,010 shares vested. We recorded the common shares at the closing price on the issue date and expensed to consulting and marketing services $193,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2013 (none in 2012).
 
(c)
In 2013, we issued 166,677 consulting warrants and 3,333 warrants vested during the period. The fair value of the warrants was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes Merton valuation model.  We expensed to marketing $44,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2013 and recorded $64,000 to prepaid expense to be recognized for services provided in the remainder of 2013.  For the three months ended March 31, 2012, we recorded $12,000 for marketing services.
 
Effective as of December 3, 2010, our Board of Directors approved the YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc. 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (“the Plan”) pursuant to which options or other similar securities may be granted. The maximum aggregate number of shares of our common stock that may be issued under the Plan is 4,000,000 shares.

Subsequent Events
 
On April 19, 2013, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (acting as Administrator) reduced the exercise price of 534,500 outstanding stock options granted under the Company’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan to $2.00.  The Plan permits the Administrator to reduce the exercise price of any award granted under the Plan if the fair market value of the award has declined since the date of grant.  All other terms of these options, including, without limitation, the exercise date, vesting schedule and the number of shares to which each option pertains, remain unchanged.  In the second quarter of 2013, we expect to record a charge of approximately $51,000 in our statement of operations to record the effect of this change in exercise price.
 
A former employee of the Company has recently communicated to the Company that she believes she has claims against the Company and the CEO in connection with the termination of her employment. The Company believes it has complied with all laws in connection with her termination, as well as her contract, and intends to vigorously defend if such claims are formally made by the former employee.

We operate in the Chinese media segment, through our Chinese subsidiaries and VIEs, (1) a business which provides integrated value-added service solutions for the delivery of VOD and enhanced premium content for cable providers and (2) a cable broadband business based in the Jinan region of China.
 
Through our VIE, Sinotop, and it’s 80% owned operating joint venture Zhong Hai Video, we provide integrated value-added service solutions for the delivery of VOD, and enhanced premium content for cable providers. Zhong Hai Video's revenue will be derived primarily from a VOD model, consisting of a fee to view movies, popular titles and live events.  At year end our VOD product was implemented on a limited basis for testing. Our product launch occurred in conjunction with the Chinese New Year halfway through our first quarter of 2013.  Results were minimal during the initial promotional period.
 
Through our VIE, Jinan Broadband, we provide cable and wireless broadband services, principally internet services, Internet Protocol Point wholesale services, related network equipment rental and sales, and fiber network construction and maintenance. Jinan Broadband’s revenue consists primarily of sales to our PRC-based internet consumers, cable modem consumers, business customers and other internet and cable services.
 
Principal Factors Affecting Our Financial Performance

Our operating results are primarily affected by the following factors:

 
Growth in the Chinese Economy. We operate in China and derive all of our revenues from sales to customers in China. Economic conditions in China, therefore, affect virtually all aspects of our operations, including the demand for our products, the availability and prices of our supplies and our other expenses. China has experienced significant economic growth, achieving an average annual growth rate of approximately 10% in gross domestic product from 1996 through 2011. China is expected to experience continued growth in all areas of investment and consumption, even in the face of a global economic recession. However, China has not been entirely immune to the global economic slowdown and is experiencing a slowing of its growth rate.
 
 
 
PRC Economic Stimulus Plans. The PRC government has issued a policy entitled “Central Government Policy On Stimulating Domestic Consumption To Counter The Damage Result From Export Business Of The Country,” pursuant to which the PRC Central Government is dedicating approximately $580 billion to stimulate domestic consumption. Companies that are either directly or indirectly related to construction, and to the manufacture and sale of building materials, electrical household appliances and telecommunication equipment, are expected to benefit. We could potentially benefit if the stimulus plan injects funds into cable infrastructure allowing access to our PPV network.

 
Deployment of Value-added Services. To augment our product offerings and create other revenue sources, we work with strategic partners to deploy value-added services to our cable customers. Value-added services, including but not limited to the synergies created by the additions of our new assets, will become a focus of revenue generation for our company. No assurance can be made that we will add other value-added services, or if added, that they will succeed.
 
Taxation

United States

YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc. is subject to United States tax at a tax rate of 34%. No provision for income taxes in the United States has been made as YOU On Demand Holdings, Inc. had no income taxable in the United States.

Cayman Islands

CB Cayman was incorporated in the Cayman Islands. Under the current law of the Cayman Islands, it is not subject to income or capital gains tax. In addition, dividend payments are not subject to withholding tax in the Cayman Islands.

Hong Kong

Our subsidiary, Sinotop Hong Kong, was incorporated in Hong Kong and under the current laws of Hong Kong, is subject to Profits Tax of 16.5%. No provision for Hong Kong Profits Tax has been made as Sinotop Hong Kong has no taxable income.

The People’s Republic of China

Under the EIT Law, our Chinese subsidiaries and VIEs are subject to an earned income tax of 25.0%.

Our future effective income tax rate depends on various factors, such as tax legislation, the geographic composition of our pre-tax income and non-tax deductible expenses incurred. Our management carefully monitors these legal developments to determine if there will be any change in the statutory income tax rate.

Revenues

Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2013, totaled $1,312,000, as compared to $1,274,000 for 2012. The increase in revenue of approximately $38,000, or 3%, is attributable to increased revenue from Jinan Broadband.   Jinan Broadband’s revenue consisted primarily of sales to our PRC based internet consumers, cable modem consumers, business customers and other internet and cable services.

Gross (loss) Profit

Our gross (loss) profit for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was $(420,000), as compared to $128,000 during 2012. The decrease in gross (loss) profit of approximately $548,000, or 428%, is mainly due to the amortization of content costs related to our VOD business.

Gross (loss) profit as a percentage of revenue was (32)% for the three months ended March 31, 2013, as compared to 10% during 2012. The decrease is mainly due to content acquisition costs related to our VOD business.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Our selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013, decreased approximately $47,000 to $2,209,000, as compared to $2,256,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.
 

Salaries and personnel costs are the primary components of selling, general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, salaries and personnel costs accounted for 58% of our selling, general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, salaries and personnel costs totaled $1,286,000, a decrease of $142,000, or 10%, as compared to $1,428,000 for the same period of 2012.

The other major components of our selling, general and administrative expenses include marketing and promotions, technology, rent and travel. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, these costs totaled $486,000, an increase of $220,000, or 82% as compared to $266,000 in 2012. The increase is mainly due to the growth and development of our VOD business.

Professional Fees

Professional fees are generally related to public company reporting and governance expenses as well as legal fees related to our VOD business. Our costs for professional fees decreased $86,000, or 21%, to $326,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $412,000 during 2012.  The decrease in professional fees was primarily due to a reduction in legal fees.

Depreciation and Amortization

Our depreciation expense decreased $340,000, or 46%, to $390,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $730,000 during 2012, The decrease is due to certain equipment at Jinan Broadband being taken out of service due to changes in customer needs. As such, the Company ceased depreciating such equipment.

Our amortization expense decreased $203,000, or 43%, to $267,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2013, from $470,000 during 2012. The decrease is due to Sinotop Hong Kong Non-compete Agreement having been fully amortized as of January 2013.

Change in Fair value of Warrant Liabilities

Our warrants are characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations and, accordingly, we reported a loss of $26,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 (none in 2012). The loss is primarily due to the increase in our closing stock price.

Change in Fair Value of Contingent Consideration

Our contingent consideration related to our acquisition of Sinotop Hong Kong is classified as a liability because the earn-out securities do not meet the fixed-for-fixed criteria under ASC 815-40-15. Further, ASC 815-40-15 requires us to re-measure at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations and, accordingly, we reported a loss of approximately $42,000 and $712,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The loss is primarily due to increases in our closing stock price.

Net Loss Attributable to Non-controlling Interest

49% of the operating loss of our Jinan Broadband subsidiary is allocated to Jinan Parent, the 49% co-owner of this business. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, $113,000 of our operating losses from Jinan Broadband was allocated to Jinan Parent, as compared to $283,000 during the same period of 2012.

20% of the operating loss of our Zhong Hai Video joint venture is allocated to Hua Cheng, our 20% joint venture partner. During the three months ended March 31, 2013, 217,000 of our operating loss from Zhong Hai Video was allocated to Hua Cheng, as compared to $81,000 during the same period of 2012.
 
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2013, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $2,103,000. Approximately $1,060,000 is held in our Chinese subsidiaries. The company has no plans to repatriate these funds. We had a working capital deficit at March 31, 2013, of approximately $9,215,000.

The following table provides a summary of our net cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities.

Operating Activities

The increase in cash used in operating activities relates to corporate and operational costs incurred primarily in the development of our VOD business.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 was used primarily for (i) additions to property and equipment of $242,000 and $162,000, respectively, and (ii) investments in intangibles of $20,000 and $104,000, respectively.

Financing activities

We anticipate that we will need to raise additional funds to fully implement our business model and related strategies. We believe we have the ability to raise funds by various methods including utilization of our $50 million shelf registration as well as other means of financing. The fact that we have incurred significant continuing losses and continue to rely on debt and equity financings to fund our operations to date, could raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this report have been prepared assuming that the
 
Company will continue as a going concern and, accordingly, do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.  As of March 31, 2013 the Company has an accumulated operating loss of approximately $62 million.
 
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm’s report of the financial statements for year ended December 31, 2012, contained an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation and changing prices have had an effect on our business and we expect that inflation or changing prices could materially affect our business in the foreseeable future. Our management will closely monitor the price change and make efforts to maintain effective cost control in operations.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

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


Seasonality

Our operating results and operating cash flows historically have not been subject to seasonal variations. This pattern may change, however, as a result of new market opportunities or new product introductions.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operation are based upon our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 includes a summary of our most significant accounting policies.

The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, inventories, income taxes, stock-based compensation and contingent liabilities. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. Periodically, we review our critical accounting estimates with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors.

Item 3.

We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and are not required to provide the information under this item.

Item 4.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to ensure that information that would be required to be disclosed in Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time period specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including to our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2013. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of March 31, 2013 and as of the date that the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures was completed, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to satisfy the objectives for which they are intended.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in internal control. The Company continues to invest resources in order to upgrade internal controls.
