Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2012 and 2011

(Unaudited)

Note 1 - Organization and Business and Accounting Policies

Inuvo® is an internet marketing and technology company specialized in marketing browser-based consumer applications, managing networks of website publishers and operating specialty websites. We develop software and analytics technology that is accessible over the internet for use by consumers, online advertisers and website publishers.

On March 1, 2012 we completed our acquisition of Vertro, Inc. (“Vertro”), an internet company that owns and operates the ALOT product portfolio. Effective with the merger, we are now organized into three operating segments: Software Search, Publisher Network and Partner Programs. Vertro's operations are now part of our Software Search and Partner Programs segments. Our Publisher Network segment consists of the technology and analytics platforms that provide advertisers and publishers the capability to facilitate performance based advertising. This segment also consists of websites we own and operate. The Partner Programs segment consists of consumer applications we have designed, developed and marketed. The Software Search, Publisher Network and Partner Programs segments represent approximately 43%, 37% and 20%, respectively, of our total net revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2012. Prior to 2012, we were organized under two segments; Web Properties and Performance Marketing. For presentation purposes, our prior period results included herein have been reclassified for our new segment structure.

Merger with Vertro

In evaluating the merger, we, and the management of Vertro believed that the combination of the two companies could create a stronger, more scalable business, from which to attract advertisers, publishers and consumers. Expected benefits include:

	●	diversified revenue streams which should mitigate our dependence on one major customer;
	●	an existing install and distribution capability through Vertro's ALOT toolbar applications for our consumer facing innovations;

	●	a stronger business from which to access both debt and capital markets to support growth;
	●	the combination of two experienced digital marketing teams; and

●

the combination will eliminate approximately $2.9 million in overlapping annual operating and public company expenses.

We are currently integrating the operations of the two companies.

Software Search

Following our acquisition of Vertro, effective March 1, 2012, we are including the ALOT product line into what we now call our Software Search segment. The ALOT product line offers two primary products to consumers, ALOT Home, a homepage product, and ALOT Appbar, a software application that consumers install into their web browsers. Both ALOT Home and ALOT Appbar include a search box from which consumers conduct type-in web search requests. The ALOT Appbar provides access to a library of applications, which are used by consumers to receive dynamic information, perform useful tasks, or access their favorite content online. There are hundreds of apps available for consumers to choose from ranging from a weather app that provides an at-a-glance snapshot of the weather for the coming four days, to a radio app that enables consumers to instantly listen to thousands of radio stations from around the world. All ALOT products and apps are free to download and use.

In addition to displaying apps, the ALOT Home and ALOT Appbar products also include a search box from which a majority of the revenue has historically been derived. Users conduct millions of searches per day producing both algorithmic results and sponsored listings. Both the algorithmic results and sponsored listings are provided by third parties with whom we have contractual relationships. If users click on a sponsored listing after conducting a search, we earn a percentage of the total click-through revenue provided by the third-party that placed the advertisement. Historically, search revenue from Google accounted for over 80% of revenue from the ALOT operations.

Publisher Network

The Publisher Network segment designs, builds, implements, manages and sells the various technology platforms and services we offer. In this business, we mediate between advertisers and publishers to facilitate performance-based advertising. Our Publisher Network is made up of thousands of different websites, from large, well-known portals to independent tech bloggers. The Publisher Network segment consolidates some of the disparate technologies and platforms we acquired between 2002 and 2008 into the Inuvo platform. The Inuvo platform is an open, fraud filtering, lead generation marketplace designed to allow advertisers and publishers to manage their transactions in an automated and transparent environment. In addition to the core Inuvo platform for advertisers and publishers, we continue to sell services and license legacy platforms and directories within the Publisher Network segment, including:

●

The ValidClick® service at www.validclick.com. ValidClick is a fraud filtering, pay-per-click marketplace where publishers can integrate dynamically-generated advertisements within their websites based on the demographics and natural search behaviors of the consumer. ValidClick provides publishers with access to tens of thousands of advertisers in an easy-to-use XML-based implementation, giving the publisher greater control over content and integration than other competitive offerings.

●

The LocalXML service at www.localxml.com. LocalXML is a service which allows publishers to make real-time calls to the LocalXML database. These calls answer the simple questions “what” and “where.” For example, “what” equals “steaks” and “where” equals “Tampa,” from which the LocalXML database returns a complete listing of all local businesses in Tampa that meet this criteria. Publishers may customize how the data appears on their site, and include user reviews of the businesses searched. The LocalXML service is designed to be bundled with the ValidClick service described above.

●

The Yellowise.com™ directory search web site at www.yellowise.com and the recently launched Local.ALOT.com website are included in the Publisher Network segment as well. Both websites are local search and review sites powered by the LocalXML service. Users may search by category and location, and receive requested search results. Users may also post reviews of their favorite and not-so-favorite businesses making the reviews available to all other users of the site.

Partner Programs

The Partner Programs segment designs, builds and implements unique offers that generate revenue from the sale of products, services, data and advertising. It consists of display revenues, affiliate programs, data sales, Kowabunga® and BargainMatch. This segment includes the non-search revenue generated from the ALOT products when users interact with certain applications from within the Appbars. We refer to these as sponsored apps and they generate either pay-per-click or cost-per-action revenue. Website page-views are also monetized through cost-per-thousand display ads. We also utilize user data to enhance product offering and generate additional revenue.

●

The Kowabunga consumer daily deals website at www.kowabunga.com. Kowabunga is a daily deal program focused on rural America, a market Inuvo believes is underserved by market leaders. Inuvo has access to millions of consumers through its search marketing operations that are potential customers for a local deal of the day. Inuvo is partnering with a national direct marketer, which currently markets offers from thousands of merchants in rural America. Inuvo has developed the infrastructure to present daily local offers from the inventory of its partner to the consumers from the Inuvo Platform. Inuvo believes that the potential reach of this program is to approximately 20 million households in 25 states, with a potential for 90% household penetration, 2,500 national and local retail advertisers. Kowabunga was launched in the third quarter of 2011.

●

The BargainMatch consumer product comparison-shopping and shopping rewards website at www.BargainMatch.com. BargainMatch is also a service which allows publishers to offer their visitors an online shopping experienced branded around their site with rewards to consumers coming in the form of cash back on every online purchase made through the publisher. The service has been designed and positioned as a consumer loyalty solution. The product line also includes a consumer facing application which can be downloaded at www.bargainmatch.com/installnow.

●

The MyAP® Affiliate Platform at www.MyAP.com. MyAP is a complete affiliate tracking and management software solution providing advertisers the ability to sign up, manage and track the activities of their publishers through a reliable, easy-to-use, and privately-branded platform with full data transparency. Where the Inuvo Platform is an open platform where many advertisers and publishers interact, the MyAP platform is designed specifically to allow merchants to build private affiliate networks. Each advertising customer of MyAP is supported by a unique implementation of the software, customized to suit their individual needs and populated by publishers who use the platform exclusively for that advertiser. Today, MyAP supports hundreds of customers.

●	ALOT Display comprises various display advertising opportunities throughout the ALOT product platform, including our www.alothome.com default home page, hundreds of Apps in our ALOT Appbar, and other ALOT-branded websites.

Liquidity

On March 1, 2012, we entered into a new Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank, N.A. for a revolving credit facility of up to $10 million and a term loan for up to $5 million. The Business Financing Agreement replaced our then existing $8 million revolving credit facility with Bridge Bank. The new credit facility is used primarily to satisfy our working capital needs. We believe with the higher loan availability from the new bank facility and our plan to reduce duplicate costs with respect to the merger with Vertro, we will have sufficient cash for the next twelve months. On June 29, 2012, we entered into a modification of the Business Financing Agreement to waive certain events of default in April and May 2012, and modify the financial covenants thereafter.

Discontinued Operations

At June 30, 2012, we reported a loss from discontinued operations associated with Vertro's European operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we settled a lawsuit resulting in a gain of approximately $257,000 from a business sold in 2010, MarketSmart Advertising ("MSA").

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our subsidiaries. All inter-company accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2012 and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) are condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and filed with the SEC. The interim consolidated financial information contained herein is not certified or audited; it reflects all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the operating results for the periods presented, stated on a basis consistent with that of the audited consolidated financial statements. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year. Our consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2012 include four months of the operations and financial results of the Vertro subsidiary which was acquired on March 1, 2012.

Reclassification

For comparability, the 2011 consolidated financial statements reflect reclassifications where appropriate to conform to the interim consolidated financial statement presentation used in 2012. These reclassifications have no effect on total stockholders' equity (deficit) or net loss.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of net revenue and expenses in the reporting period. We regularly evaluate estimates and assumptions related to allowances for returns and redemptions, allowances for doubtful accounts, goodwill and purchased intangible asset valuations, lives of intangible assets, deferred income tax asset valuation allowances, stock compensation, and the value of stock options and warrants. We base our estimates and assumptions on current facts, historical experience and on various other factors that we believe 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. The actual results experienced by us may differ materially and adversely from management's estimates. To the extent there are material differences between the estimates and the actual results, future results of operations will be affected.

Credit Risk, Customer and Vendor Evaluation

Accounts receivable are typically unsecured and are derived from sales to customers. We perform ongoing credit evaluations of our customers and maintain allowances for estimated credit losses. We apply judgment as to our ability to collect outstanding receivables based primarily on management's evaluation of the customer's financial condition and past collection history and records a specific allowance. In addition, we record an allowance based on the length of time the receivables are past due.

At June 30, 2012 and subsequent to the merger with Vertro, we have two individual customers with accounts receivable balances greater than 10% of our gross accounts receivable from continuing operations. These customers owed approximately $3.9 million or 65.3% of gross accounts receivable from continuing operations at June 30, 2012. These same customers contributed approximately $8.8 million or 68.6% of total net revenue from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and $16.6 or 76.6% of total net revenue from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012. At June 30, 2011, we had one customer with receivable balance greater than 10% of our gross accounts receivable from continuing operations. This customer owed approximately $2.3 million or 62.6% of gross accounts receivable from continuing operations at June 30, 2011. This same customer contributed approximately $8.1 million or 88.0% of total net revenue from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2011, and $17.9 million or 85.4% of total net revenue from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

On March 1, 2012, we entered into a new Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank. N.A. (“Bridge Bank”), for up to a $10 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Line”) and a $5 million term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Revolving Credit Line replaced our then existing $8 million revolving credit facility. The new credit facility will be used primarily to satisfy our working capital needs following the closing of the merger with Vertro described herein. As of June 30, 2012, there was approximately $1.4 million credit available on the revolving credit facility and $0 on the term loan. Subject to the terms of the new agreement, we are entitled to obtain advances against the Revolving Credit Line up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable balances, which are generally those balances owed by U.S. based customers that are less than 90 days from the date of invoice, plus $1 million up to the credit limit of $10 million. In addition, subject to the terms of the agreement, we are entitled to borrow up to $5 million under the Term Loan, which is repayable in 45 equal monthly installments beginning June 2012. The Revolving Credit Line portion of the credit facility expires on February 28, 2014, at which time all loan advances under the Revolving Credit Line become due and payable. The Term Loan expires in February 2016. Under the terms of the new agreement, we must maintain certain depository, operating and investment accounts at Bridge Bank; provide Bridge Bank a first priority perfected security interest in all of our accounts and personal property; provide various monthly, quarterly and annual reports; and limit additional indebtedness to $500,000 of purchase money including capital leases and an additional $500,000 of all other indebtedness. We were required to maintain through May 2012 an “operating profit” of net income plus interest and taxes plus non-cash expenses for amortization, depreciation, stock based compensation, discontinued operations, non-recurring non-cash items and certain closing costs associated with the Vertro transaction of not less than $200,000 for the immediate preceding three month period; after May 2012 a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.0 tested on the immediate preceding three month period; and an Asset Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1 at all times until September 30, 2012 and 1.25 to 1.0 thereafter. Interest on the Revolving Credit Line is payable monthly at prime plus 0.5% (3.75% at June 30, 2012) plus a monthly maintenance fee of 0.125 percentage points on the average daily account balance. Interest on the Term Loan bears interest at prime plus 1% (4.25% at June 30, 2012). In connection with establishing the credit facility, the Company incurred fees payable to Bridge Bank of approximately $100,000. The agreement calls for a termination fee until the first anniversary and prepayment fee on the Term Loan until the first anniversary.

On June 29, 2012 we entered into the First Business Financing with Bridge Bank which changed the minimum Asset Coverage Ratio to 0.75 to 1.00 for June 2012 through August 2012, then 0.80 to 1.00 for September 2012, 0.85 to 1.00 for October 2012 and to 1.00 to 1.00 for November 2012 and thereafter. It also changed the minimum Operating Profit to $200,000 for June 2012, then $500,000 for July 2012, $1,000,000 for August 2012 and to $1,500,000 for September 2012 and thereafter. Also changed was the minimum Debt Service ratio to 1.5 to 1.0 beginning October 2012 and thereafter. Further, the First Business Financing Modification Agreement waived the event of default caused by the non-compliance of the minimum Debt Coverage ratio in April and May 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all terms of the amended Bridge Bank credit facility.

Note 7 - Stock-Based Compensation Plans

The stock option program is a long-term retention program that is intended to attract, retain and provide incentives for talented employees, officers and directors, and to align stockholder and employee interests. We consider our option programs critical to our operation and productivity. Currently, we grant options and restricted stock awards ("RSAs") from two shareholder approved plans, the 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2005 LTIP") and the 2010 Equity Compensation Plan (“2010 ECP”). Option and restricted stock unit vesting periods are generally zero to three years.

On September 23, 2011, all unexpired stock options had their expiration term extended by 5 years from the date of grant. The extension of the termination period for these stock options increased the expected life of the options by approximately one year and accordingly increased the fair market value of these stock options by approximately $283,000 of which $117,000 was related to fully vested stock options and was recorded as a charge to expense in the third quarter of 2011. We are amortizing $166,000 over the remaining vesting periods.

On January 1, 2012, the number of shares of our common stock issuable under the 2010 ECP was increased by 100,357 shares due to the ever-green provision as part of the 2010 ECP. Additionally, effective February 29, 2012, our shareholders increased the number of shares of our common stock issuable under the 2010 ECP by 2.5 million shares. As of March 31, 2012, we had reserved under our 2005 LTIP 1.0 million shares of common stock for issuance and another 3,385,945 shares under our 2010 ECP.

The following table summarizes all stock based compensation grants as of June 30, 2012:

	Stock Options Outstanding		RSA's Outstanding		Options and RSA's Exercised		Available Shares		Total

2010 ECP		591,551		3,144		903,696		1,889,054		3,387,445
2005 LTIP		603,175		46,119		214,164		136,542		1,000,000
Total		1,194,726		49,263		1,117,860		2,025,596		4,387,445

The fair value of RSAs is determined using the market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The use of this valuation model involves assumptions that are judgmental and highly sensitive in the determination of compensation expense and include the expected life of the option, stock price volatility, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, exercise price, and forfeiture rate. Under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation,” forfeitures are estimated at the time of valuation and reduce expense ratably over the vesting period. The forfeiture rate, which is currently estimated at a weighted average of 25% of unvested options outstanding, is adjusted periodically based on the extent to which actual forfeitures differ, or are expected to differ, from the previous estimate.

We recorded stock-based compensation expense for all equity incentive plans of approximately $192,000 and $552,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively. Additionally, stock- based compensation for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, was $387,000 and $978,000, respectively.

At June 30, 2012, the aggregate intrinsic value of all outstanding options is $0 and has a weighted average remaining contractual term of 7.53 years. As of June 30, 2012, 750,256 of the outstanding options are exercisable and have an aggregate intrinsic value of $0, a weighted average exercise price of $2.93 and a weighted average remaining contractual term of approximately 7.27 years. The total compensation cost at June 30, 2012 related to non-vested awards not yet recognized was approximately $565,000 and has an average remaining expense recognition period of 1.02 years. As a result of the merger, we had 118,842 options outstanding as of June 30, 2012 that were not part of either plan.

The following table summarizes unaudited information about stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

	2012					2011
	Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price		Options			Weighted Average Exercise Price

Outstanding, beginning of period		1,358,717		$	2.83		1,223,159		$	3.74
Granted		-		$	-		300,000		$	2.93
Forfeited or expired		(163,991	)	$	3.16		(70,011	)	$	5.71
Exercised		-		$	-		-		$	-
Outstanding, end of period		1,194,726		$	2.81		1,453,148		$	3.28
Exercisable, end of period		750,256		$	2.93		485,346		$	4.46

No option or warrant exercises occurred under any share-based payment arrangements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. As part of the merger with Vertro on March 1, 2012, 118,842 options were outstanding that are not part of the existing plans.

In accordance with ASC 718, the fair values of options granted were not changed. There were no options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2012. The fair value of options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2011 were estimated assuming the following weighted averages:

	2012		2011

Expected life in years		-		4.5
Volatility		-		141.10	%
Risk free interest rate		-		2.15	%
Dividend yield		-		-

Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock over the period commensurate with, or longer than, the expected life of the options. The expected life of the options is based on the vesting schedule of the option in relation to the overall term of the option. The risk free interest rate is based on the market yield of the US Treasury Bill with a 5 year term. We do not anticipate paying any dividends so the dividend yield utilized in the model is zero.

Deferred Compensation

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, our executive officers, certain of our senior management and our board of directors, voluntarily elected to defer a portion of their compensation. The amount of the deferred compensation was approximately $132,000 and $319,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. As an incentive for officers, management and directors to participate in the elected deferrals, we granted them RSAs with a fair value equal to the amount of the deferred compensation. The RSAs will vest upon the earlier of repayment of the deferred compensation or December 31, 2011. The number of RSAs granted in conjunction with the deferred compensation was 47,662 and 113,817 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and were granted at an exercise price of the greater of fair market value on the date of each grant or $2.50. There was no deferred compensation in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. As of June 30, 2012, all RSAs granted in connection with these elected deferrals were issued (see Note 8).

Warrants Outstanding

As of June 30, 2012, we have outstanding warrants for the potential issuance of 765,000 shares of common stock. Exercise price for these warrants ranges from $1.50 to $15.00. These warrants were primarily issued in connection with acquisitions, private placements and debt issuances.

Note 8 - Sale of Common Stock and Treasury Stock

In August 2011, we retired 164,869 shares of our common stock held in treasury valued at approximately $627,000. In February 2012, we retired 21,270 shares of our common stock valued at approximately $81,000.

The merger agreement with Vertro required that at closing of the merger, we pay outstanding obligations under our deferred compensation program and bonus agreements to our executive officers, board of directors and certain management employees with our common stock in lieu of cash. These obligations were satisfied by issuing 1,017,742 shares of our common stock. At the same time, 284,962 of the common stock issued to executives, board directors and managers were withheld by us at the same value as issued, to pay for the associated individual's income taxes, approximately $256,000. Those shares withheld were retired.

Note 9 - Income Taxes

We are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ending December 31, 2008 through 2011. Our state income tax returns are also open to audit under the statute of limitations for the years ending December 31, 2008 through 2011.

As of June 30, 2012, we have accrued $506,453 for uncertain tax positions that we reported as discrete items in the other long-term liabilities section of the consolidated balance sheet (unaudited) as of June 30, 2012.

Due to the recent history of tax losses, the economic conditions in which we operate, recent organizational changes, and near term projections, we concluded that we are unable to support a conclusion that it is more likely than not that any of our deferred income tax assets will be realized. As a result, we have recorded a full valuation allowance for the net deferred tax assets at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. We recorded a deferred tax liability of $4,543,000 as a result of the merger with Vertro on March 1, 2012.

Note 10 - Discontinued Operations

The table below summarizes unaudited financial results of discontinued operations which are comprised of the European operations from our merger with Vertro in March 2012 and the settlement of a lawsuit involving a lease with our discontinued MSA operations which resulted in a one-time credit of approximately $257,000 in March 2011. The unaudited results for discontinued operations in the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are:

Note 11 - Net Loss Per Common Share

During the periods presented, we had securities, mainly stock options and warrants, which could potentially dilute basic earnings per share in the future, but were excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share, as their effect are anti-dilutive. Per share data is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding.

Note 12 - Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

ASU 2011-08- In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other: Testing Goodwill for Impairment” to simplify the goodwill impairment test. The change allows companies to first decide whether they need to do the two-step test by allowing companies to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. This amendment also includes examples of how the amended test should be carried out. This amendment is effective for annual and interim tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011, although early adoption is permitted. The effect of adopting this statement is not expected to have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

ASU 2011-05 - In June 2011, the FASB issued “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”. For annual periods, an entity has the option to present the components of comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. For interim periods, total comprehensive income is required to be disclosed either below net income on the income statement or as a separate statement. The Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") does not change the items that must be reported as other comprehensive income. Whether presenting two separate statements or one continuous statement in annual periods, the ASU required entities to present reclassifications from other comprehensive income in the statement reporting net income. In December 2011, however, the FASB deferred this requirement when it issued ASU 2011-12, “Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassification of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05”, which has the same effective date as ASU 2011-05. Companies must continue to disclose reclassifications from other comprehensive income on the statement that reports other comprehensive income, or in the notes to the financial statements. We adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2012, and disclosed total comprehensive income below net income on the income statement in our interim financial statements. The effect of adopting this statement is not expected to have an impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on our present or future consolidated financial statements.

Note 13 - Segment Analysis

In 2012, management reorganized the operations along three new operating segments - Publisher Network, Software Search and Partner Programs. Prior to 2012, our two segments were classified as Performance Marketing and Web Properties segments.

Unaudited Pro Forma Results of Operations

As a result of the merger with Vertro, effective March 1, 2012 the unaudited pro forma consolidated operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, would have been revenue of $25,425,932 and $36,901,697, respectively; net loss of $7,047,982 and $3,653,011, respectively; and basic and diluted loss per share of $0.37 and $0.42, respectively. The pro forma results do not include any anticipated synergies which may occur subsequent to the acquisition date. Accordingly, such pro forma amounts are not necessarily indicative of the results that actually would have occurred had the acquisition been completed on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of our future combined operating results.

Note 15 - Litigation and Settlements

From time to time we may become subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition, we are currently involved in the following litigation which is not incidental to its business:

Shareholder Class Action Lawsuits. In 2005, five putative securities fraud class action lawsuits were filed against Vertro and certain of its former officers and directors in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, which were subsequently consolidated. The consolidated complaint alleged that Vertro and the individual defendants violated Section 10(b) of the Exchange Act and that the individual defendants also violated Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act as “control persons.” Plaintiffs sought unspecified damages and other relief alleging that, during the putative class period, Vertro made certain misleading statements and omitted material information. The court granted Defendants' motion for summary judgment on November 16, 2009, and the court entered final judgment in favor of all Defendants on December 7, 2009. Plaintiffs appealed the summary judgment ruling and the court's prior orders dismissing certain claims. On September 30, 2011, the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the dismissal of 9 of the 11 alleged misstatements and reversed the court's prior order on summary judgment. Vertro intends to file a petition for certiorari with the United States Supreme Court seeking review of the Eleventh Circuit's decision. On April 16, 2012, Vertro filed a petition for a writ of certiorari with the United States Supreme Court seeking review of the Eleventh Circuit's decision. The certiorari petition is fully briefed and the parties are awaiting a ruling from the Supreme Court.

Derivative Stockholder Litigation. On July 25, 2005, a stockholder, Bruce Verduyn, filed a putative derivative action purportedly on behalf of Vertro in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida, against certain of Vertro's directors and officers. This action is based on substantially the same facts alleged in the securities class action litigation described above. The complaint is seeking to recover damages in an unspecified amount. By agreement of the parties and by orders of the court, the case was stayed pending the resolution of the defendant's motion to dismiss in the securities class action. On July 10, 2007, the parties filed a stipulation to continue the stay of the litigation. On July 13, 2007, the court granted the stipulation to continue the stay and administratively closed the case pending notification by plaintiff's counsel that the case is due to be reopened.

State of Florida civil investigation re Inuvo, Inc. formerly d/b/a iLead Media, LLC d/b/a Home Biz Ventures, LLC, Case No. L09-3-1186. The State of Florida Attorney General's office served a subpoena for documents on November 23, 2009, relating to the negative-option marketing business of former Inuvo subsidiary iLead Media, LLC. Inuvo responded to the subpoena and has continued to engage in informational exchanges with the Attorney General's office.

Beth Tarczynski v. Inuvo, Inc. d/b/a Blog Tool Kit, Home Biz Ventures, LLC, and John Doe Defendants; Case No. 11-5111-CI-7, in the Circuit Court for the Sixth Judicial Circuit of Florida. On June 10, 2011, a putative class action complaint was filed alleging violations of the Florida statute prohibiting misleading advertisements, violation of Florida's Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, fraud in the inducement, conspiracy to commit fraud, restitution/unjust enrichment, and breach of contract. The plaintiffs are seeking certification of a statewide class and unspecified damages. Initial discovery has begun and Inuvo is vigorously defending the action.

Express Revenue, Inc. v. Inuvo, Inc.; Case No. 10-44118-13, in the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit of Florida. On November 4, 2010, the plaintiff filed this lawsuit alleging breach of oral contract, and violation of Florida Statute §68.065, among other claims, and seeking approximately $30,000 for allegedly unpaid commissions dating back to 2009. Initial discovery has begun and Inuvo is vigorously defending the action.

Corporate Square, LLC v. Think Partnership, Inc., Scott Mitchell, and Kristine Mitchell; Case No. 08-019230-CI-11, in the Circuit Court for the Sixth Judicial Circuit of Florida. This complaint, filed on December 17, 2008, involves a claim by a former commercial landlord for alleged improper removal of an electric generator and for unpaid electricity expenses, amounting to approximately $60,000. The litigation has not been actively prosecuted, but the plaintiff recently served discovery requests seeking additional information. Inuvo is actively defending this action, and the co-defendants' separate counsel is likewise defending the claim against the co-defendants.

Oltean, et al. v. Think Partnership, Inc.; Edmonton, Alberta CA. On March 6, 2008, Kelly Oltean, Mike Baldock and Terry Schultz, former employees, filed a breach of employment claim against Inuvo in The Court of Queen's Bench of Alberta, Judicial District of Edmonton, Canada, claiming damages for wrongful dismissal in the amount of $200,000 for each of Kelly Oltean and Terry Schultz and $187,500 for Mike Baldock. On March 6, 2008, the same three plaintiffs filed a similar statement of claim against Vintacom Acquisition Company, ULC, a subsidiary of Inuvo, again for wrongful dismissal and claiming the same damages. In October 2009, the two actions were consolidated. The case is in the discovery stage and Inuvo is vigorously defending the matter.

Litigation Relating to the Merger. On October 27, 2011, a complaint was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against Vertro, its directors, Inuvo, and Anhinga Merger Subsidiary, Inc. on behalf of a putative class of Vertro shareholders (the “New York Action”). Two other complaints, also purportedly brought on behalf of the same class of shareholders, were filed on November 3 and 10, 2011, against these same defendants in Delaware Chancery Court and were ultimately consolidated by the Court (the “Delaware Action”). The plaintiffs in both the New York and the Delaware Actions alleged that Vertro's board of directors breached their fiduciary duties regarding the merger with Inuvo and that Vertro, Inuvo, and Anhinga Merger Subsidiary, Inc. aided and abetted the alleged breach of fiduciary duties. The plaintiffs asked that the merger be enjoined and sought other unspecified monetary relief.

Plaintiffs in the Delaware Action requested expedited discovery and related proceedings, but this request was denied by the Delaware Chancery Court on December 21, 2011. Defendants in the Delaware Action moved to dismiss plaintiffs' complaint, but before the briefing of that motion was complete the plaintiffs filed a notice and proposed order of voluntary dismissal without prejudice, which was entered by the Delaware Court on March 20, 2012. The defendants in the New York Action also moved to dismiss the complaint, or in the alternative to stay proceedings. The New York Court granted Defendants' motion to stay on February 22, 2012 and, as a result of this ruling, the Court denied without prejudice defendants' motion to dismiss and the plaintiff's pending request for expedited discovery. Plaintiffs in the New York action then filed a Second Amended Complaint on June 19, 2012 and, on July 9, 2012, Defendants moved to dismiss that complaint for failure to state a claim.

Scott Mitchell v. Inuvo. In January 2012 we were named as a defendant in an action styled Scott Mitchell versus Inuvo, Inc., f/k/a Think Partnership Inc. and Kowabunga! Inc., Does I-X , Case No. A-11-653956-C in the District Court, Clark County, Nevada. The complaint is related to our alleged failure to fully indemnify Mr. Mitchell, our former chief executive officer and member of the board of directors, pursuant to the terms of an indemnification agreement entered into in connection with his employment agreement, for attorneys' fees and costs incurred by him related to an investigation of insider trading brought against Mr. Mitchell by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The complaint alleges that Mr. Mitchell has subsequently received correspondence from the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission that the Commission does not intend to make any recommendation for an enforcement action against him. Under the terms of Inuvo's director's and officer's liability policy, its insurer has already paid approximately $588,000 of attorneys' fees and costs to Mr. Mitchell's counsel. Mr. Mitchell is seeking an additional approximately $265,000 of fees and costs which he allegedly owes to his counsel. The complaint alleges breach of contract/indemnity agreement, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, tortious breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and failure to indemnify pursuant to our bylaws and the Nevada statutes. The complaint seeks a judgment against us for actual, consequential and special damages in excess of $10,000, advances of fees, costs and expenses, punitive damages, attorney's fees and costs, pre and post-judgment interest and a determination of his rights with respect to the indemnification agreement, our bylaws and the Nevada statutes. Given the amount of recovered funds received by Mr. Mitchell, and the position of Inuvo's insurer that any reimbursement beyond what has already been paid is unwarranted, Inuvo intends to defend this lawsuit on the basis of the scope of the applicable indemnification and the reasonableness of the fees demanded.

Reverso-Softissimo v. ALOT. In May 2012 a complaint was filed against us in the Court of First Instance of Paris in Paris, France. The complaint is related to our alleged use of Reverso-Softissimo's trademarks in our advertising. The case is in the initial stages and Inuvo is vigorously defending the matter.

Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we deem immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information or future events or developments, except as required by law. The following discussion should also be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Overview

On March 1, 2012 we completed our acquisition of Vertro, an internet company that owns and operates the ALOT product portfolio. We are now organized into three operating segments: Software Search, Publisher Network and Partner Programs. Prior to 2012, our segments were classified as Performance Marketing and Web Properties. Vertro's operations are now part of our Software Search and Partner Programs segments. Our Publisher Network segment consists of the technology and analytics platforms that provide advertisers and publishers the capability to facilitate performance based advertising. This segment also consists of websites we own and operate. The Partner Programs segment consists of consumer applications we have designed, developed and marketed. The Software Search, Publisher Network and Partner Program segments represent approximately 43%, 37% and 20%, respectively, of our total net revenue for the quarter ending June 30, 2012 and 34%, 48% and 18%, respectively for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The Company's consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2012 include the operations and financial results of the Vertro subsidiary for four months. Prior to the period covered by this report, we were organized under two segments; Web Properties and Performance Marketing. For presentation purposes, our prior period results included herein have been reclassified for our new segment structure.

Software Search

Following our acquisition of Vertro, effective on March 1, 2012, we are including the ALOT product line into what we now call our Software Search segment. The ALOT product line offers two primary products to consumers, ALOT Home, a homepage product, and ALOT Appbar, a software application that consumers install into their web browsers. Both ALOT Home and ALOT Appbar include a search box from which consumers conduct type-in web search requests. The ALOT Appbar provides access to a library of applications, which are used by consumers to receive dynamic information, perform useful tasks, or access their favorite content online. There are hundreds of apps available for consumers to choose from ranging from a weather app that provides an at-a-glance snapshot of the weather for the coming four days, to a radio app that enables consumers to instantly listen to thousands of radio stations from around the world. All ALOT products and apps are free to download and use.

Publisher Network

●

Partner Programs

●

●	ALOT Display comprises various display advertising opportunities throughout the ALOT product platform, including our www.alothome.com default home page, hundreds of Apps in our ALOT Appbar, and other ALOT-branded websites.

NYSE MKT

On May 9, 2011, we received notice from the NYSE MKT, LLC (formerly NYSE Amex) that we were below certain of the exchange's continued listing standards due to stockholders' equity of less than $4.0 million and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of our four most recent fiscal years as set forth in Section 1003(a) (ii) of the NYSE MKT Company Guide. The exchange accepted our plan to regain compliance with the continued listing standards and in June 2011 we executed the first part of the plan by raising $2.7 million in equity. Another key component of the plan was the launching of new marketing initiatives, BargainMatch and Kowabunga! , that we believed would enhance revenues and income in the next 12 months. As a result of the company's reported results at December 31, 2011, the exchange's minimum requirement for continued listing is a stockholder's equity of not less than $6.0 million. Due to the merger with Vertro at March 1, 2012, our stockholders' equity exceeds this minimum requirement and we regained compliance with the continued listing standards. The exchange has advised us it will monitor our continued compliance for several quarters as we integrate Vertro's operations into our company.

Results of Operations for the Three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

The following table sets forth selected information concerning our results of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited and in thousands):

	2012			% of Revenue			2011			% of Revenue

Net loss	$	(2,964	)		(23.0	)%	$	(1,831	)		(19.9	)%

In the three months ended June 30, 2012, net revenues increased 39.7% from the same period of 2011. Additionally, gross profit also increased 64.7% in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. These increases were due primarily from revenue from our Software Search segment as a result of our merger with Vertro. In the three months ended June 30, 2012, our operating expenses increased by approximately 64.6% over the same period in 2011 due primarily to customer acquisition costs from our Software Search segment as a result of our merger with Vertro.

Our net loss from continuing operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 increased by approximately $1,071,000 from the same period in 2011 due to lower gross profit that was not offset by lower operating expenses.

Net Revenue

Total net revenue from our Publisher Network, Software Search and Partner Programs segments for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (unaudited and in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Publisher Network		4,835		37.6	%		8,113		88.1	%		(3,278	)		(40.4	)%
Software Search		5,496		42.7	%		-		-	%		5,496			-	%
Partner Programs		2,543		19.8	%		1,100		11.9	%		1,443			131.2	%
Total net revenue		12,874		100.0	%		9,213		100.0	%		3,661			39.7	%

Net revenue from our Publisher Network segment decreased 40.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the decrease in the number of transactions driven through our owned and operated websites and through third party affiliates using the ValidClick platform. In December 2011, Yahoo! provided preliminary notice that it had identified certain traffic irregularities across its publisher network, to which Inuvo is a contributor. While this irregular traffic did not originate within the Inuvo network, it passed through some websites the company manages and in some cases owns and operates. Yahoo! made advertiser refunds as a result of identified traffic irregularities that it charged back to us. In the first quarter of 2012, the chargeback was approximately $238,000. This amount was a reduction of our revenue in the first quarter 2012 and most of this amount has been charged back to our vendors. Additionally, we have reduced traffic to some websites we manage while we restart and test campaigns that were put on hold when the notice from Yahoo! was received. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully return these campaigns to their previous levels. The revenue of this segment has been volatile due to the decrease in transactions as described above and we expect the volatility to continue in the near future.

Net revenue from our Software Search segment is entirely a result of the merger with Vertro on March 1, 2012. Net revenue from the Software Search segment is derived from the ALOT users conducting searches that produce both algorithmic results and sponsored listings. Both the algorithmic results and sponsored listings are provided by third parties with whom we have contractual relationships. When users click on a sponsored listing after conducting a search, we earn a percentage of the total click-through revenue provided by the third-party that placed the advertisement. The revenue of this segment has been growing and we expect it to continue in the near future.

Net revenue from our Partner Programs segment increased 131.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to revenue derived from partner programs associated with the ALOT operations acquired in the merger of Vertro on March 1, 2012. The higher revenue is partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our BabytoBee business where we discontinued telesales operations in the second quarter of 2011.

One provider of paid search results for our Software Search segment accounted for approximately 31.9% of our consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012. No revenue from that paid search provider was included in our consolidated revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Additionally, one provider of paid search results for our Publisher Network segment accounted for approximately 36.5% and 88.0% of consolidated revenues for the three month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (unaudited and in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Affiliate expenses		4,141		32.2	%		4,426		48.0	%		(285	)		(6.4	)%
Data acquisition		1,756		13.6	%		628		6.8	%		1,128			179.6	%
Merchant processing fees and product costs		199		1.5	%		45		0.5	%		154			342.2	%
Total cost of revenue		6,096		47.4	%		5,099		55.3	%		997			19.6	%

The lower affiliate payments in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 is due to the 40.4% decrease in net revenues in the Publisher Network segment in the same comparable periods. The lower affiliate payments as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 is due to the higher revenue in 2012 due to the merger with Vertro on March 1, 2012.

The increase in data acquisition costs both in real dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011 is due primarily to acquiring bundled downloads to drive revenue through our ALOT Appbar which was acquired in the Vertro acquisition in March 2012. We believe these costs will continue to increase for the next few months.

The following table provides information on gross profit by operating segment for each of the periods presented (unaudited and in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Gross Profit			2011 ($)		% of Gross Profit			$ Change			% Change

Publisher Network		964		14.2	%		3,683		89.5	%		(2,719	)		(73.8	)%
Software Search		4,151		61.3	%		-		-	%		4,151			-	%
Partner Programs		1,661		24.5	%		432		10.5	%		1,229			284.5	%
Total gross profit		6,776		100.0	%		4,115		100.0	%		2,661			64.7	%

Gross profit from our Publisher Network segment decreased 73.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the 40.4% decrease in net revenue and only a 12.6% decrease in cost of revenue.

Gross profit from the Software Search segment is resulted from the ALOT operations acquired in the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Gross profit from our Partner Programs segment increased 285.2% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due primarily to the ALOT operations acquired in the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (unaudited and in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Search costs		5,423		42.1	%		2,297		24.9	%		3,126			136.1	%

Total operating expenses		9,435		73.2	%		5,732		62.2	%		3,703			64.6	%

Our operating expenses by segment were as follows for the periods presented (unaudited and in thousands):

	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Publisher Network		385		3.0	%		2,464		26.7	%		(2,079	)		(84.4	)%
Software Search		5,350		41.6	%		-		-	%		5,350			-	%
Partner Programs		284		2.2	%		1,405		15.3	%		(1,121	)		(79.8	)%
Corporate		3,416		26.5	%		1,862		20.2	%		1,554			83.5	%
Total operating expenses		9,435		73.3	%		5,731		62.2	%		3,704			64.6	%

Search costs increased 136.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the advertising spend to create download traffic for the ALOT appbar. This expense is expected to increase in the future as we grow ALOT revenue in the Software Search segment.

Compensation and telemarketing expense decreased 30.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to discontinuing the telemarketing operations in the second quarter of 2011.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 117.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 due to increases in depreciation and amortization expense $530,000, rent expense of $132,000, IT services expense of $129,000 and other general expenses of $178,000 related to the acquired operations from the merger withVertro in March 2012.

Corporate expense in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same quarter last year increased approximately 83.5% primarily due to increases in compensation expense of $347,000, depreciation and amortization expense of $500,000, IT services expense of $132,000 and other general expenses of $177,000 related to the acquired operations from the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Other Income (Expense), Net

The loss on write-off of note receivable of approximately $101,000 resulted from the cancellation of our outsourced call center contract during the second quarter of 2011.

Interest expense, net which is primarily associated with our borrowings from Bridge Bank N.A. (“Bridge Bank”), decreased by 7.8% during the three months ended June 30, 2012 to $104,731 as compared to $113,600 for the same period in 2011. The higher interest expense last year is due primarily to the expense associated with executing the Business Financing Modification Agreement with Bridge Bank on May 25, 2011 and the related back-up letter of credit provided by Mr. Charles D. Morgan to secure the additional availability.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax Expense

The loss from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $155,000 and is primarily attributed to the denial by European authorities to hear our appeal for refunding of Value Added Taxes in Germany.

Results of Operations for the Six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

The following table sets forth selected information concerning our results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 (unaudited and in thousands):

Net loss		(4,838	)		(22.4	)%		(3,224	)		(15.3	)%

The financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2012 include only four months of combined financial results of the merger with Vertro on March 1, 2012. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, net revenues increased 3.0% from the same period of 2011. Additionally, gross profit also increased by 6.9% in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011. These increases were due primarily from revenue from our Software Search segment as a result of our merger with Vertro. In the six months ended June 30, 2012, our operating expenses increased by approximately 17.9% over the same period in 2011 due primarily to customer acquisition costs from our Software Search segment as a result of our merger with Vertro.

Our net loss from continuing operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 increased by approximately $1,199,000 from the same period in 2011 due to higher gross profit that was offset by higher operating expenses.

Net Revenue

Total net revenue from our Publisher Network, Software Search and Partner Programs segments for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (unaudited and in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Publisher Network		10,460		48.3	%		17,963		85.5	%		(7,503	)		(41.8	)%
Software Search		7,264		33.6	%		-		-	%		7,264			-	%
Partner Programs		3,918		18.1	%		3,043		14.5	%		875			28.8	%
Total net revenue		21,642		100.0	%		21,006		100.0	%		636			3.0	%

Net revenue from our Publisher Network segment decreased 41.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the decrease in the number of transactions driven through our owned and operated websites and through third party affiliates using the ValidClick platform. In December 2011, Yahoo! provided preliminary notice that it had identified certain traffic irregularities across its publisher network, to which Inuvo is a contributor. While this irregular traffic did not originate within the Inuvo network, it passed through some websites the company manages and in some cases owns and operates. Yahoo! made advertiser refunds as a result of identified traffic irregularities that it charged back to us in the first quarter of 2012, the chargeback was approximately $238,000. This amount was a reduction of our revenue in the current quarter and most of this amount has been charged back to our vendors. Additionally, we have reduced traffic to some websites we manage while we restart and test campaigns that were put on hold when the notice from Yahoo! was received. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully return these campaigns to their previous levels. The revenue of this segment has been volatile due to the decrease in transactions as described above and we expect the volatility to continue in the near future.

Net revenue from our Partner Programs segment increased 28.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to revenue derived from partner programs associated with the ALOT operations acquired in the merger of Vertro on March 1, 2012. The higher revenue is partially offset by a decrease in revenue from our BabytoBee business where we discontinued telesales operations in the second quarter of 2011.

One provider of paid search results for our Software Search segment accounted for approximately 28.6% of our consolidated revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012. No revenue from that paid search provider was included in our consolidated revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Additionally, one provider of paid search results for our Publisher Network segment accounted for approximately 48.0% and 88.0% of consolidated revenues for the six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 respectively.

Cost of Revenue and Gross Profit

Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (unaudited and in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Affiliate expenses		8,647		40.0	%		10,168		48.4	%		(1,521	)		(15.0	)%
Data acquisition		2,536		11.7	%		1,199		5.7	%		1,337			111.5	%
Merchant processing fees and product costs		262		1.2	%		103		0.5	%		159			154.4	%
Total cost of revenue		11,445		52.9	%		11,470		54.6	%		(25	)		(0.2	)%

The lower affiliate payments in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 is due to the 41.8% decrease in net revenues in the Publisher Network segment in the same comparable periods. The lower affiliate payments as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period in 2011 is due to the higher revenue in 2012 due to the merger with Vertro on March 1, 2012.

The increase in data acquisition costs both in real dollars and as a percentage of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011 is due primarily to acquiring bundled downloads to drive revenue through our ALOT Appbar which was acquired in the Vertro acquisition in March 2012. We believe these costs will continue to increase for the next few months.

The following table provides information on gross profit by operating segment for each of the periods presented (unaudited and in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Gross Profit			2011 ($)		% of Gross Profit			$ Change			% Change

Publisher Network		2,205		21.6	%		7,796		81.8	%		(5,591	)		(71.7	)%
Software Search		5,604		55.0	%		-		-	%		5,604			-	%
Partner Programs		2,388		23.4	%		1,740		18.2	%		648			37.2	%
Total gross profit		10,197		100.0	%		9,536		100.0	%		661			6.9	%

Gross profit from our Publisher Network segment decreased 71.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the 41.8% decrease in net revenue and an 18.8% decrease in cost of revenue, and the lower percent of the total Publisher Network revenue deriving from owned and operated websites.

Gross profit from the Software Search segment is resulted from the ALOT operations acquired in the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Gross profit from our Partner Programs segment increased 37.2% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the 28.7% increase in net revenue from the ALOT operations that were acquired in the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were as follows (unaudited and in thousands):

	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2012 ($)		% of Revenue			2011 ($)		% of Revenue			$ Change			% Change

Total operating expenses		14,544		67.2	%		12,332		58.7	%		2,212			17.9	%

Search costs increased 51.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to the advertising spend to create download traffic for the ALOT appbar. This expense is expected to increase in the future as we recognize ALOT revenue in the Software Search segment acquired in the Vertro merger.

Compensation and telemarketing expense decreased 41.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to discontinuing the telemarketing operations in the second quarter of 2011.

Selling, general and administrative expense increased 72.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same period of 2011 primarily due to increases in depreciation and amortization expense of $476,000, rent of $231,000, IT services expense of $157,000, consulting expense of $127,000, other general expenses of $184,000 and direct merger costs of $436,000 related to the acquired operations from the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Corporate expense in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the same quarter last year increased approximately 38.4% primarily due to an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $475,000, compensation expense of $247,000, rent expense of $141,000, consulting expense of $124,000, computer software and supplies of $101,000 and direct merger costs of $437,000 related to the acquired operations from the merger with Vertro in March 2012.

Other Income (Expense), Net

The charge to litigation settlements of approximately $374,000 in the period ending June 30, 2011 was due to settlements with two former employees.

The loss on write-off of note receivable of approximately $101,000 resulted from the cancellation of our outsourced call center contract during the second quarter of 2011.

Interest expense, net which is primarily associated with our borrowings from Bridge Bank N.A. (“Bridge Bank”), increased by 29.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2012 to $271,431 as compared to $210,269 for the same period in 2011. The increase in interest expense primarily reflects the write-off of $100,743 of amortizing fees from the February 2011 Bridge Bank credit facility that was terminated and superseded by the Bridge Bank credit facility of March 2012.

Income (Loss) from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax Expense

The loss from discontinued operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was approximately $157,000 and is primarily attributed to the denial by European authorities to hear our appeal for refunding of Value Added Taxes in Germany.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is our ability to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet the company's needs for cash. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had working capital deficits of approximately $2.6 million and $2.0 million, respectively. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash from operations, cash on hand and the bank credit facility.

While we do not have any commitments for capital expenditures which come due within the next 12 months, in the past our liquidity had been negatively affected, as a result of a reduction in search marketing revenue. In response, we implemented a cost reduction plan throughout 2011 to offset the reduced revenue which included a reduction in employees and related expenses. We also delayed payments to publishers and vendors in the management of our cash flows. Additionally in 2011, our directors, executive officers and certain senior managers agreed to a deferral of cash compensation which was ultimately converted to common shares.

Upon merging with Vertro on March 1, 2012 we eliminated duplicate costs in public company expense, and in the accounting, legal, and IT functions. The program to reduce duplicate costs continues beyond the second quarter. We also entered into a new Business Financing Agreement with our bank (see below). At June 30, 2012 cash increased $3.3 million from the end of 2011 and bank debt correspondingly increased from $2.9 million at December 31, 2011 to $7.9 million at the end of the second quarter 2012.

On March 1, 2012, we entered into a new Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank for a revolving credit facility with a maximum limit of $10 million (the “Revolving Credit Line”) and a term loan with a maximum limit of $5 million (the “Term Loan”). The Revolving Credit Line replaced the Company's then existing $8 million revolving credit facility with Bridge Bank. The new credit facility will be used primarily to satisfy our working capital needs. As of June 30, 2012, there was approximately $1.4 million credit available on the Revolving Credit Line and $0 on the Term Loan. Subject to the terms of the new agreement, we are entitled to obtain advances against the Revolving Credit Line up to 80% of eligible accounts receivable balances, which are generally those balances owed by U.S. based customers that are less than 90 days from the date of invoice plus $1 million up to the maximum limit of $10 million. In addition, subject to the terms of the agreement, we are entitled to borrow up to $5 million under the Term Loan portion of the credit facility, which is repayable in 45 equal monthly installments beginning June 2012. The Revolving Credit Line portion of the credit facility expires on February 28, 2014, at which time all loan advances under the Revolving Credit Line become due and payable. The Term Loan expires in February 2016. Under the terms of the new agreement, we must maintain certain depository, operating and investment accounts at Bridge Bank; provide Bridge Bank a first priority perfected security interest in all of our accounts and personal property; provide various monthly, quarterly and annual reports; and limit additional indebtedness to $500,000 of purchase money including capital leases and an additional $500,000 of all other indebtedness. In addition, we must maintain through May 2012 an “operating profit” of net income plus interest and taxes plus non-cash expenses for amortization, depreciation, stock based compensation, discontinued operations, non-recurring non-cash items and certain closing costs associated with the Merger Transaction with Vertro of not less than $200,000 for the immediate proceeding three month period; after May 2012 a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.0 tested on the immediate proceeding three month period; and an Asset Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.10 to 1 at all times until September 30, 2012 and 1.25 to 1.0 thereafter. Interest on the Revolving Credit Line is payable monthly at prime plus 0.5% plus a monthly maintenance fee of 0.125 percentage points on the average daily account balance. Interest on the Term Loan bears interest at prime plus 1%. In connection with establishing the credit facility, we incurred fees payable to Bridge Bank of approximately $100,000. The agreement calls for a termination fee until the first anniversary and prepayment fee on the Term Loan until the first anniversary. On June 29, 2012, we entered into the First Business Financing Modification Agreement with Bridge Bank which modified the financial covenants of the Business Financing Agreement to; a minimum Asset Coverage Ratio to 0.75 to 1.00 for June 2012 through August 2012, then 0.80 to 1.00 for September 2012, 0.85 to 1.00 for October 2012 and to 1.00 to 1.00 for November 2012 and thereafter; the minimum Operating Profit to $200,000 for June 2012, then $500,000 for July 2012, $1,000,000 for August 2012 and to $1,500,000 for September 2012 and thereafter; and the minimum Debt Service ratio to 1.5 to 1.0 beginning October 2012 and thereafter. The modification also waived the event of default caused by the non-compliance of the minimum Asset Coverage Ratio in April and May 2012. As of June 30, 2012, we were in compliance with the terms of the Business Financing Agreement.

We may seek to raise additional capital through public or private equity financings in order to fund our operations, take advantage of favorable business opportunities, develop and upgrade our technology infrastructure, develop new product and service offerings, take advantage of favorable conditions in capital markets, sell certain of our operations or respond to competitive pressures in an effort to maintain our market position. We cannot be assured that additional financing will be available to us on favorable terms, or at all. If we issue additional equity, our existing stockholders may experience substantial dilution. If we continue to generate losses and are unable to comply with the continued listing standards of NYSE MKT, we could be delisted and be unable to raise additional capital at a reasonable cost. We believe with the higher loan availability from the new bank facility and our plan to reduce duplicate costs with respect to the merger with Vertro, we will have sufficient cash for the next twelve months.

Cash flows

Net cash used in operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 totaled approximately $303,000 compared to net cash provided by operations of approximately $78,000 during the same period in 2011. The net cash used in operating activities in 2012 is primarily due to a $3.1 million decrease in other accrued expenses and current liabilities resulting from the merger with Vertro ($2.8 million) and the settlement of the deferred compensation liability ($915,000). This was partially offset with an increase of operating liabilities. The net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to a decrease in accounts receivable of approximately $1.2 million and the deferred compensation program instituted last year to preserve the company's cash reserves ($319,000).

Net cash used by investing activities in 2012 of $388,000 was primarily due to the purchase of IT equipment and capitalized development cost. Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 of $1.8 million was primarily associated with the purchase of names database for resale in the BabytoBee and lead generation businesses.

Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 were approximately $4.0 million and $3.5 million, respectively. The cash provided by financing activities for both periods resulted from the proceeds from the advances under our bank term note, bank credit facility and capital lease payments.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2012, 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, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURE ABOUT MARKET RISK

Not applicable to a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures for us. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and procedures designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC rules and regulations, and to reasonably assure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Our management does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal controls will prevent all errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. In addition, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company are detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people or by management override of the controls. The design of any systems of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving our stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

As required by Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of March 31, 2012, the end of the period covered by this report, our management concluded its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. As of the evaluation date, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that we maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with our evaluation that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

Risk factors describing the major risks to our business can be found under Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 as filed with the SEC and our subsequent filings with the SEC.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

We desire to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Accordingly, we incorporate by reference the risk factors disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 29, 2012, subject to the new or modified risk factors appearing below that should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in our Form 10-K.

We depend on two customers for a significant portion of our revenues. Prior to the acquisition of Vertro, we received 86.6%, and 80.3%, respectively, of our net revenue for 2011 and 2010 from a single customer, Yahoo!. Vertro received approximately 81.0%, and 87.0%, respectively, of its net revenue for 2011 and 2010, from a different single customer, Google. Our current contract with Yahoo! expires in April 2014. Our current contract with Google expires December 31, 2012. During Q2, 2012 we received 32.2% of our revenue from Google and 36.7% of our revenue from Yahoo!

The amount of revenue we receive from these customers depends on a number of factors outside of our control, including the amount they charge for advertisements, the depth of advertisements available from them, and their ability of to display relevant ads in response to our end-user queries. We will likely experience a significant decline in revenue and our business operations could be significantly harmed if:

	●	We fail to have websites and applications approved;
	●	Our paid listings providers' performance deteriorates; or
	●	We violate our paid listings providers' guidelines or they change their implementation guidelines.

In addition, if any of these preceding circumstances were to occur, we may not be able to find a suitable alternate paid search results provider or otherwise replace the lost revenues. The loss of either of these customers or a material change in the revenue or gross profit generated by these customers will have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition in future periods.

Our business must keep pace with rapid technological change to remain competitive. Our business operates in a market characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new product and service announcements, enhancements, and changing customer demands. We must adapt to rapidly changing technologies and industry standards and continually improve the speed, performance, features, ease of use and reliability of our services. For example, our Internet toolbar products are browser based plug-ins which must be supported by the Internet browser to function. The standards regarding support for browser based plug-ins are changing and Microsoft recently indicated that one setting of its new browser will not support plug-ins and we will have to adapt our product to this change. Introducing new technology into our systems involves numerous technical challenges, requires substantial amounts of capital and personnel resources, and often takes many months to complete. We may not successfully integrate new technology into our websites on a timely basis, which may degrade the responsiveness and speed of our websites. Technology, once integrated, may not function as expected. In addition, the number of people who access the Internet through devices other than desktop and laptop computers, including mobile telephones and other handheld computing devices, has increased dramatically in the past few years. Failure to modify our Internet toolbar product to keep pace with changes in underlying Internet browser specifications, attracting and retaining a substantial number of mobile device users to our services, or failure to develop services that are more compatible with mobile communications devices, or failure to generally keep pace with the rapid technological change could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and the trading price of our common stock.

In the past Inuvo has been deficient in the continued listing standards of NYSE Amex and there are no assurances it will be able to maintain compliance in the future.

In May 2011, Inuvo was notified by the NYSE MKT, LLC (formerly NYSE AMEX) that it was below certain of the exchange's continued listing standards due to stockholders' equity of less than $4,000,000 and losses from continuing operations and/or net losses in three of its four most recent fiscal years as set forth in Section 1003(a)(ii) of the NYSE MKT company guide. Inuvo was afforded the opportunity to submit a plan of compliance to the exchange by June 8, 2011, that demonstrated its ability to regain compliance with Section 1003(a)(ii) of the company guide within a maximum of 18 months from the submission of the plan. On July 6, 2011, Inuvo was notified by the exchange that it had made a reasonable demonstration of Inuvo's ability to regain compliance with the continued listing standards by December 8, 2012. The exchange continued the listing of Inuvo's common stock subject to certain conditions, including the requirement to provide updates on Inuvo's progress. Following the closing of the merger with Vertro, our stockholders' equity then exceeded the minimum requirement of the exchange and we regained compliance with the continued listing standards. The exchange has advised us it will monitor our continued compliance for several quarters as we integrate Vertro's operations into our company. NYSE MKT's current continued listing standard for stockholders' equity appliable to the Company is $6,000,000 and at June 30, 2012 Inuvo's stockholders' equity was $6,188,106. If Inuvo does not maintain compliance with the continued listing standards Inuvo's common stock will be subject to delisting procedures. In that event that Inuvo is delisted it is likely that Inuvo's common stock would be quoted in the over the counter market on the OTC Bulletin Board. The loss of Inuvo's exchange listing would adversely impact the future liquidity of Inuvo's common stock and may make it more difficult for its stockholders to resell those shares.
