Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 – Organization and Business

Company Overview

Inuvo, Inc. and subsidiaries ("we", "us" or "our") are an internet advertising technology and digital publishing company.

We develop technology to deliver content and targeted advertisements over the internet. We generate revenue when an end user clicks on the advertisements we delivered. We manage our business as two segments, the Partner Network and the Owned and Operated Network.

The Partner Network delivers advertisements to our partners' owned or managed websites and applications on desktop, tablet and mobile devices. We generate revenue in this segment when an advertisement is clicked and we share a portion of that revenue with our partners. Our proprietary technology platform allows for targeted distribution of advertisements at a scale that measures in the hundreds of millions of advertisements delivered monthly.

The Owned and Operated Network designs, builds and markets consumer websites and applications. This segment consists of our mobile-ready ALOT websites and acquired web properties. The focus is on providing engaging content to our users. The majority of revenue generated by this segment is derived from clicks on advertisements delivered through web searches and advertisements displayed on the websites.

Liquidity

On September 29, 2014, we renewed our Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank, N.A. ("Bridge Bank") (see Note 5, "Notes Payable"). The renewal provided continued access to the revolving line of credit up to $10 million through September 2016 and a new term loan of $2 million through September 2017. As of September 30, 2015, the balance of both the term loan and the revolving line of credit was zero. The revolving line of credit had approximately $5.7 million of available credit at September 30, 2015 . During the first quarter of 2014 we filed an S-3 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to replace the existing, expiring S-3 “shelf” registration statement. Though we believe the revolving line of credit and cash generated by operations will provide sufficient cash for operations over the next twelve months, we may still elect to sell stock to the public or to selected investors, or borrow under the current or any replacement line of credit or other debt instruments in order to fund the development of our technologies, make acquisitions, pursue new business opportunities or grow existing businesses.

Customer concentration

We generate the majority of our revenue from two customers, Yahoo! and Google. At September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 these two customers combined accounted for 99.1% and 94.8% of our gross accounts receivable balance, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, these two customers combined accounted for 97.8% and 98.1% of net revenue, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, these two customers combined accounted for 97.8% and 96.9% of net revenue, respectively.

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements presented are for Inuvo, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared based upon SEC rules that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with those rules and regulations. The accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2014, was derived from audited financial

statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. In our opinion, these consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of results of operations and financial condition for the interim periods shown including normal recurring accruals and other items. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. For a more complete discussion of significant accounting policies and certain other information, this report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014, which was filed with the SEC on February 9, 2015.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The estimates and assumptions used in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are based upon management’s regular evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances as of the date of the consolidated financial statements. 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, contingent liabilities, including the Arkansas grant contingency, and stock compensation. Actual results may differ from the estimates and assumptions used in preparing the accompanying consolidated financial statements, and such differences could be material.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-10 Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed and determinable, no significant obligations remain and collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured.

Most of our revenue is generated through clicks on advertisements presented on our properties or those of our partners. We recognize revenue from clicks in the period in which the click occurs. Payments to partners who display advertisements we serve are recognized as cost of revenue. Revenue from data sales and commissions is recognized in the period in which the transaction occurs and the other revenue recognition criteria are met.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and will supersede most current revenue recognition guidance. Under ASU 2014-09, a company will recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. On July 9, 2015, the FASB decided to delay the effective date of the new revenue standard by one year. Reporting entities may choose to adopt the standard as of the original effective date. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In August 2014, FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which will require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. The adoption of ASU 2014-15 is not expected to have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In January 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-01, Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items. This Update eliminates from GAAP the concept of extraordinary items. Effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted provided that the guidance is applied from the beginning of the fiscal year of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2015-01 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In September 2015, FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments, that eliminates the requirement to restate prior period financial statements for measurement period adjustments. The new guidance requires that the cumulative impact of a measurement period adjustment (including the impact on prior periods) be recognized in the reporting period in which the adjustment is identified. The new standard should be applied prospectively to measurement period adjustments that occur after the effective date. The new standard is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015 and early adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2015-16 is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Note 3– Property and Equipment

	September 30, 2015			December 31, 2014

On March 1, 2012 we entered into a Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank. The agreement provided us with a $5 million term loan and access to a revolving credit line of up to $10 million which we use to help satisfy our working capital needs. We have provided Bridge Bank with a first priority perfected security interest in all of our accounts and personal property as collateral for the credit facility. Available funds under the revolving credit line are 80% of eligible accounts receivable balances plus $1 million, up to a limit of $10 million. Eligible accounts receivable is generally defined as those from United States based customers that are not more than 90 days from the date of invoice. We had approximately $5.7 million available under the revolving credit line as of September 30, 2015.

In September 2014, the Company entered into the Fifth Business Financing Modification Agreement with Bridge Bank that renewed the existing Agreement and modified some terms. The renewed agreement extended the revolving line of credit to September 2016 and provided for a new term loan of $2 million through September 2017. As of September 30, 2015, we reduced the balance of the term loan and the revolving line of credit to zero. On October 9, 2014, the Agreement was amended to clarify the definition of the financial covenants. The financial covenants are Debt Service Coverage Ratio, measured monthly on a trailing three months basis, of not less than 1.75 to 1.0 for the August 2014 measuring period, and each month measuring period thereafter and an Asset Coverage Ratio, measured monthly, of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 for the months ended August 2014 and September 30, 2014; 1.15 to 1.0 for the months ended October 31, 2014, November 30, 2014 and December 31, 2014, and 1.25 to 1.0 for the month ending January 31, 2015 and each month thereafter. We were in compliance with all bank covenants as of September 30, 2015.

Total	$	4,226,665	$	3,704,464

Note 7 – Other Long-Term Liabilities

Other long-term liabilities consist of the following as of:



	September 30, 2015		December 31, 2014
Contingent stock due for acquired domains, less current portion	$	477,249	$	—
Capital leases, less current portion	40,740		15,621

Taxes payable	—		506,453
Deferred Rent	—		70,861

Total	$	550,686	$	735,211

In February 2015, we settled a disputed income tax claim with the State of New Jersey. The claim related to the 2007-2009 tax years and was settled for $100,000. As a result, the long-term taxes payable liability of $506,453 was adjusted to zero.

On May 8, 2015, we purchased two domain websites with a fair value of $715,874 (see Note 4). The purchase consideration is our common stock and is contingent upon the seller attaining specific performance targets over three years.

Note 8 – Income Taxes

We have a deferred tax liability of $3,552,500 as of September 30, 2015, related to our intangible assets.

We also have a net deferred tax asset of approximately $41,000,000. We have evaluated this asset and are unable to support a conclusion that it is more likely than not that any of this asset will be realized. As such, the net deferred tax asset is fully reserved. We will continue to evaluate our deferred tax assets to determine whether any changes in circumstances could affect the realization of their future benefit.

Due to the settlement of a disputed income tax claim with the State of New Jersey (see Note 7), the accrual for other long-term liabilities for uncertain tax positions was adjusted to zero and approximately $406,000 was credited to income tax expense in March 2015.

Note 9 - Stock-Based Compensation

We maintain a stock-based compensation program intended to attract, retain and provide incentives for talented employees and directors and align stockholder and employee interests. Currently, we grant options and restricted stock units ("RSUs") from the 2010 Equity Compensation Plan (“2010 ECP”). Option and restricted stock unit vesting periods are generally up to three years.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded stock-based compensation expense for all equity incentive plans of $251,144 and $385,818, respectively, and $279,970 and $658,800 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Total compensation cost not yet recognized at September 30, 2015 was $3,084,760 to be recognized over a weighted-average recognition period of 1.5 years.

On April 1, 2014, we granted certain employees a total of 82,000 RSUs with a weighted average fair value of $0.80 per share which vest annually over three years. On April 22, 2014, we granted employees a performance RSU contingent upon achieving 2014 profit targets. On January 21, 2015, the number of RSUs issued under the April 22, 2014 performance grant was 697,853 shares with a weighted average fair value of $1.13 per share.

On April 29, 2014, we granted members of our board of directors a total of 102,560 RSUs with a weighted average fair value of $.78 a share which were fully vested by March 31, 2015. In September 2014, 20,073 RSUs were granted to a new director with a weighted average fair value of $1.53 per share which were fully vested by March 31, 2015. On April 20, 2015, we granted members of our board of directors a total of 51,948 RSUs with a weighted average fair value of $2.31 a share which fully vest on March 31, 2016.

On July 27, 2015 and August 4, 2015, we granted certain employees service and performance RSUs totaling 965,500 shares with a weighted average fair value of $3.03 per share. The service RSUs vest annually over a three year period, commencing in July 2016, at the rate of 25% of the grant in year one and year two and the remaining 50% of the grant vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date. The awarding of the performance RSUs is contingent upon achieving certain revenue and profit targets and vest annually, one-third upon each anniversary of the grant date.

The following table summarizes the stock grants outstanding under our 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP) and 2010 ECP plans as of September 30, 2015:



	Options Outstanding	RSUs Outstanding	Options and RSUs Exercised	Available Shares	Total
2010 ECP	250,498	1,118,131	1,938,066	529,250	3,835,945
2005 LTIP (*)	33,748	254,940	695,145	—	983,833
Total	284,246	1,373,071	2,633,211	529,250	4,819,778

(*) Expired June 2015

We also have 38,650 options outstanding with exercise prices of $16.01 under a separate plan which is not authorized to issue any additional shares.

Note 10 – Discontinued Operations

Certain of our subsidiaries previously operated in the European Union ("EU"). Though operations ceased in 2009, statutory requirements require a continued presence in the EU for varying terms until November 2015. Profits and losses generated from the remaining assets and liabilities are accounted for as discontinued operations.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recorded net income of $32,065 and $37,632, respectively, largely due to adjustment of certain accrued liabilities originating in 2009 and earlier and translation adjustments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded net income from discontinued operations of $23,065 and $66,959, respectively, which came primarily from an adjustment of certain accrued liabilities originating in 2009 and earlier.

Note 11 - Earnings per Share

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, we generated net income from continuing operations. Accordingly, some of our outstanding stock options, warrants and restricted stock awards have a dilutive impact, illustrated in the following table. We generated basic and diluted earnings per share from net income of $0.03 for the three month period ending September 30, 2015 and $0.07 for the nine month period ending September 30, 2015.



	For the Three Months Ended		For the Nine Months Ended
	September 30, 2015	September 30, 2014	September 30, 2015	September 30, 2014
Weighted average shares outstanding for basic EPS	24,271,895	23,445,771	24,209,667	23,485,052
Effect of dilutive securities
Options	13,971	4,876	9,353	4,408
Restricted stock units	296,831	679,932	251,428	357,039
Warrants	205,772	12,615	78,624	8,649
Weighted average shares outstanding for diluted EPS	24,788,469	24,143,194	24,549,072	23,855,148

In addition, we have potentially dilutive options and restricted stock units. We have 308,925 outstanding stock options with a weighted average exercise price of $4.56 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 313,543 outstanding stock options with a weighted average price of $4.50 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. For the three months ended September 30, 2015, we have 806,363 outstanding restricted stock units with a weighted average price of $3.82 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we have 1,097,442 restrictive stock units outstanding with a weighted average exercise price of $3.20. All warrants were dilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Note 12 - Leases

We lease certain office space and equipment. As leases expire, it can be expected that they will be renewed or replaced in the normal course of business. Rent expense from continuing operations was $21,997 and $34,897 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively and a credit of $10,887 and $23,061 three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. The credit is primarily due to subleasing the company’s former New York City office at a higher rate than its lease cost.

Minimum future lease payments and future receipts under non-cancelable operating leases as of September 30, 2015 are:



	Lease Payments		Sublease income
2015	$	183,272	$	152,259
2016	220,960		50,753
2017	177,656		—
2018	181,209		—
2019	184,852		—
2020	140,749		—
Total	$	1,088,698	$	203,012

We also entered into an agreement to lease office space in Conway, Arkansas for two years in the total amount of $193,200 which we prepaid. The lease terminated in February 2015 and now continues on a month to month basis. The lessor of this space is First Orion Corp., which is owned by a director and stockholder of Inuvo.

In April 2015, we entered into a five year agreement to lease office space in Little Rock, Arkansas commencing October 1, 2015, to serve as our headquarters. The new lease is for 12,245 square feet and will cost approximately $171,000 during its first year. Thereafter, the lease payment will increase by 2%. We anticipate vacating the Conway, AR premises upon occupying the Little Rock headquarters.

Note 13 - 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:

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 there has not been any progress in the litigation since April 2013 and Inuvo has been holding this matter in abeyance pending the Plaintiffs taking the next step in the litigation process.

Admanage Litigation. In May 2014 Inuvo and its wholly owned subsidiary ValidClick, Inc. filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of Faulkner County Arkansas against certain former distribution partners of our Publisher Network, i.e., Admanage S.A., ClickFind Media Corp., Neo Clicks, Inc. and Neoclicks Internet Services Corp., demanding return of an aggregate of approximately $134,000 paid to such distribution partners during time periods when Inuvo and ValidClick allege that the activities of the distribution partners violated the ValidClick terms of service. In July 2014, Admanage S.A., Neoclicks Internet Services and ClickFind Media Corp. filed a suit against Inuvo and ValidClick in United States District Court Eastern District of Arkansas Western Division, alleging, among other things breach of contract for non payment of approximately $696,000 allegedly earned by the distribution partners. Admanage S.A., Neoclicks Internet Services and ClickFind Media Corp. subsequently removed the Faulkner County Circuit Court lawsuit to United States District Court Eastern District of Arkansas Western Division, and the two cases have now been consolidated into the removed case. Inuvo is vigorously defending the matter.

Note 14 - Segments

We operate our business as two segments, Partner Network and Owned and Operated Network which are described in Note 1.

Listed below is a presentation of net revenue and gross profit for all reportable segments for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. We currently only track certain assets at the segment level and therefore assets by segment are not presented below.

Note 15 - Related Party Transactions

On January 31, 2013 we entered into an agreement to lease office space in Conway, AR for two years at a monthly rental rate of $8,400 which we prepaid in connection with our relocation to Arkansas for a discounted total of $193,200. The lease terminated in February 2015 and continues on a month to month basis. A director and shareholder of Inuvo is the majority owner of the lessor of this space.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Company Overview

Inuvo, Inc. is an internet advertising technology and digital publishing company.

We have taken several significant steps to position our business for long-term success including investments in ad serving technology, the development of adaptive, programmatic and native advertising units, the creation of proprietary content, the expansion of publishers within the Partner Network and the optimization of overhead and operational costs all of which we expect will improve revenue and profitability. Our ALOT-branded websites and applications have a broad appeal focusing on popular topics such as health, local search, finance, careers, travel, living and education. These sites are content rich, searchable, mobile-ready web properties. We plan to continue the expansion of our website and mobile application business, and recently launched an education site under the ALOT brand. In 2015, we announced the beta launch of our proprietary native advertising solution for web publishers and application developers, "SearchLinks"^®. This is our entry product in the fast growing native advertising marketplace where ad copy seamlessly integrates with the content of the host website or application. SearchLinks was made available to the marketplace beginning in the third quarter of 2015 and we expect it to be a significant contributor to our growth in 2016.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. The more critical accounting estimates include estimates related to revenue recognition and accounts receivable allowances. We also have other key accounting policies, which involve the use of estimates, judgments and assumptions that are significant to understanding our results, which are described in Note 2 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements appearing earlier in this report.

Results of Operations

Net Revenue



	For the Three Months Ended September 30,								For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		Change		% Change		2015		2014		Change		% Change
Partner Network	$	7,241,441	$	7,089,584	$	151,857	2.1	%	$	24,098,859	$	18,110,706	$	5,988,153	33.1	%

Net Revenue	$	19,254,052	$	13,026,011	$	6,228,041	47.8	%	$	49,402,809	$	34,089,761	$	15,313,048	44.9	%

Net revenue increased 47.8% in the three months ended September 30, 2015 to $19.3 million compared to $13.0 million in the same period in the prior year and 44.9% in the nine months ended September 30, 2015 to $49.4 million compared to $34.1

million in the same period in the prior year. Both segments grew compared to the prior year, the Partner Network by 2.1% to $7.2 million and the Owned and Operated Network by 102.4% to $12.0 million.

The Partner Network, which represents 49% of our total net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, delivers advertisements to our partners' websites and applications. Revenue in this segment is both a function of the total number of transactions processed through the ValidClick platform and the revenue we receive per transaction. The Partner Network grew 2% in the third quarter 2015 compared to the same quarter last year and 33% in the first nine months 2015 compared to the same period last year. As reported in the June 30, 2015 filing, the Partner Network in the second quarter 2015 benefited from the higher volume and better ROI our partners experienced in certain verticals, specifically "automotive." This higher revenue was not expected to continue into the subsequent quarter and it did not. In addition, revenue from a partner site acquired by the Company earlier in 2015 is now accounted for in the Owned and Operated Network, the result being to lower the Partner Network revenue and increase the Owned and Operated Network revenue. From time to time, our advertisement suppliers modify their policies to reflect market conditions. Such policy changes have in the past and may in the future impact our revenue.

The Owned and Operated Network represents 51% of our total net revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and generates revenue through our consumer-facing websites and applications. We have a number of web properties under the ALOT brand; including ALOT Health, ALOT Finance, ALOT Careers, ALOT Local, ALOT Travel, ALOT Living, and ALOT Education. These websites are content-rich and optimized for mobile and desktop devices, and are designed to capitalize on a growing consumer demand for content, delivered both on the desktop and on mobile devices. The Owned and Operated Network grew 102% to $12 million in the third quarter 2015 compared to the same quarter last year and grew 58% to $25.3 million in the first nine months of 2015 compared to the same period last year. The strong growth came from sites acquired earlier this year and from mobile traffic sources. In addition, having not experienced adjustments from advertisers for several months, the Owned and Operated Network benefited by $194,000 due to a reduction of the accrued sales allowance. We intend to continue to expand our Owned and Operated Network by enhancing our current websites and mobile applications, launching additional mobile applications, acquiring additional web properties and expanding the content of the ALOT sites.

Cost of Revenue



	For the Three Months Ended September 30,									For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		Change			% Change		2015		2014		Change			% Change
Partner Network	$	5,860,307	$	5,882,202	$	(21,895	)	(0.4	%)	$	18,987,809	$	14,085,722	$	4,902,087		34.8	%
Owned and Operated Network	16,122		28,517		(12,395		)	(43.5	%)	50,583		167,927		(117,344		)	(69.9	)%
Cost of revenue	$	5,876,429	$	5,910,719	$	(34,290	)	(0.6	%)	$	19,038,392	$	14,253,649	$	4,784,743		33.6	%

Cost of revenue in the Partner Network is generated by payments to website publishers and application owners who host our

advertisements. The lower cost of revenue in the third quarter 2015 compared to the same quarter last year is due to lower contractual payments to publishers.

The decrease in cost of revenue in the Owned and Operated Network was driven primarily by the continued transition away from the ALOT Appbar product, which by 2015 has become relatively insignificant. Other cost of revenue in this segment consists of charges for web searches and content acquisition.

We expect gross margins to maintain the current level for the remainder of 2015 but could vary based on the individual growth rates of the two segments. See Note 14 of the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Operating Expenses



	For the Three Months Ended September 30,									For the Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2015		2014		Change			% Change		2015		2014		Change			% Change
Marketing costs	$	10,153,987	$	4,277,446	$	5,876,541		137.4	%	$	21,659,395	$	11,555,731	$	10,103,664		87.4	%
Compensation	1,540,730		1,192,227		348,503			29.2	%	4,073,240		3,431,237		$	642,003		18.7	%
Selling, general and administrative	1,047,808		1,180,940		(133,132		)	(11.3	%)	3,214,113		3,245,904		$	(31,791	)	(1.0	)%
Operating expenses	$	12,742,525	$	6,650,613	$	6,091,912		91.6	%	$	28,946,748	$	18,232,872	$	10,713,876		58.8	%

Operating expenses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 increased 92% and 59%, respectively, compared to the same periods last year due to increases in marketing costs and compensation expense. Marketing costs include those expenditures designed specifically to attract traffic to our Owned and Operated Network websites. Marketing costs increased to promote the growth of the owned and operated website business. The acquisition of websites earlier in 2015 was partially responsible for the higher marketing costs in the third quarter 2015. We expect marketing costs to continue to increase as we expand our Owned and Operated Network business.

Compensation expense increased in the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2015 as compared to the same periods of 2014 due primarily to an increase in the number of employees. Our total employment, both full-time and part-time was 61 at September 30, 2015, compared to 51 at the same time last year. We expect compensation expense to continue to increase in the coming quarters as we hire additional developers and sales personnel to support the newly launched SearchLinks product.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $1.0 million and $3.2 million in the three and nine months on ended September 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $1.2 million and $3.2 million in the same periods last year, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expense includes professional fees, facilities costs, travel and entertainment, telecommunications, connectivity, office expense, and depreciation and amortization expense. We expect selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in the coming quarters commensurate with our growth.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net was $23,101 and $84,870 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $111,674 and $285,973 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. This is interest expense on the bank credit facility where outstanding loan balances were higher in the three and nine month periods last year compared to the same periods this year.

Income tax benefit (expense)

For the three months ended September 30, 2015, income tax benefit was $7,332 and reflects primarily state income tax. Due to net operating loss carryovers, Inuvo has not incurred a federal income tax expense.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2015, we recognized a tax benefit due to settling a disputed income tax claim with the State of New Jersey in February 2015. The claim related to the 2007-2009 tax years and was settled for $100,000. As a result, the remaining long-term taxes payable liability was adjusted and resulted in a one-time $406,000 income tax benefit.

Income from Discontinued Operations

For the three and nine ended September 30, 2015, we recorded net income of $32,065 and $37,632, respectively, largely due to adjustment of certain accrued liabilities originating in 2009 and earlier and translation adjustments. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, we recorded net income from discontinued operations of $23,065 and $66,959, respectively, which came primarily from an adjustment of certain accrued liabilities originating in 2009 and earlier.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On September 29, 2014, we renewed our Business Financing Agreement with Bridge Bank (see Note 5, "Notes Payable"). The renewal provided continued access to the revolving line of credit up to $10 million through September 2016 and a new term loan of $2 million through September 2017. As of September 30, 2015, the balance of both the term loan and the revolving line

of credit was zero. The revolving line of credit had approximately $5.7 million in availability. We believe the current trend of positive cash flow will continue and the ratio of current liabilities to current assets will improve as a result.

In May 2015, we acquired a publisher’s websites that had previously been a client on our ValidClick network. The publisher accepted our stock in exchange for the sites. The stock consideration has a three year earn out dependent upon achieving certain minimum levels of volume. The fair value of the transaction was determined by a third party expert to be $715,874. The transaction was recorded as an intangible asset on our balance sheet offset by a contingent liability of $238,625 in current liabilities and $477,249 in long term liabilities.

During the first quarter of 2014, we filed an S-3 registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to replace the existing, expiring S-3 "shelf" registration statement, which permits us to offer and sell up to $15 million of our securities from time to time in one or more offerings. To date, we have not taken down any sales from this shelf registration statement. Though we believe the revolving line of credit and cash generated by operations will provide sufficient cash for operations over the next twelve months, we may still elect to sell securities to the public or to selected investors, or borrow under the current or any replacement line of credit or other debt instruments in order to fund the development of our technologies, make acquisitions, pursue new business opportunities or grow existing businesses.

Cash Flows - Operating

Net cash provided by operating activities was $5,197,790 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. We produced net income of $1,722,712, which included several non-cash expenses; depreciation and amortization expense of

$1,306,729, and stock-based compensation expense of $385,818, partially offset by an adjustment of $406,453 for accrued income tax. The change in operating assets and liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was a net provision of $2,245,227 as a result of better working capital management primarily with accounts payable increasing $3,239,004 partially offset by a $1,058,331 increase in the accounts receivable balance at September 30, 2015. Our terms are such, that we generally collect receivables prior to paying trade payables.

During the comparable period in 2014, we generated cash from operating activities of $2,727,100 from a net income of $1,459,924, which included several non-cash expenses; depreciation and amortization of $1,320,734 and stock-based compensation of $658,800.

Cash Flows - Investing

Net cash used in investing activities was $1,050,678 and $656,441 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Cash used in investing activities during both periods primarily consisted of capitalized internal development costs.

Cash Flows - Financing

Net cash used in financing activities was $3,939,699 during 2015. We had sufficient cash at September 30, 2015 to pay off the outstanding balance of the bank term loan and pay down the revolving credit facility to zero.

In 2014, net cash used in financing activities was $1,747,866 and was used to reduce the bank term loan.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of September 30, 2015, 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 DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

Not applicable to a smaller reporting company.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. 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 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 have been 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 control. 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 its 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 September 30, 2015, the end of the period covered by this report, our management concluded their 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 were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the period ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

See Note 13, Litigation and Settlements, for a discussion of outstanding legal proceedings.

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 for the year ended December 31, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2015 subject to the new or modified risk factors appearing below that should be read in conjunction with the risk factors disclosed in such Form 10-K.

We rely on two customers for a significant portion of our revenues. We are reliant upon Yahoo! and Google for most of our revenue. During the third quarter of 2015 they accounted for 62.1% and 35.8% of our revenues, respectively, and during the same period 2014 they accounted for 53.7%% and 44.1%, respectively. The amount of revenue we receive from these customers is dependent 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 to display relevant ads in response to end-user queries.

We would likely experience a significant decline in revenue and our business operations could be significantly harmed if these customers do not approve our new websites and applications, or if we violate their guidelines or they change their 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 they generate would have a material adverse impact on our business, results of operations and financial condition in future periods.

We have a history of losses and there are no assurances that we can consistently generate net income. Although we generated net income in 2013, 2014 and the first nine months of 2015, we have a history of net losses that have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $117,365,840 as of September 30, 2015. We cannot provide assurance that we can consistently generate a net income.
