1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

A summary of the significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements follows:

 

Business and Basis of Presentation

 

InvestView, Inc. (the "Company") was incorporated on August 10, 2005 under the laws of the State of Nevada. On September 16, 2006, the Company changed its name to TheRetirementSolution.Com, Inc., on October 1, 2008 to Global Investor Services, Inc. and on March 27, 2012 to InvestView, Inc. The Company currently markets directly and through its marketing partners as well as online, certain investor products and services that provide financial and educational information to its prospective customers and to its subscribers.

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Investment Tools & Training, LLC ("ITT") and Razor Data Corp ("Razor"). All significant inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

The following (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2012, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six months ended September 30, 2012 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending March 31, 2013. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2012 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 29, 2012.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product or services has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

 

Revenue arises from subscriptions to the websites/software, workshops, online workshops and training and coaching/counseling services where the customers are charged a monthly subscription fee for access to the online training and courses and website/data.  Revenues are recognized in the month the product and services are delivered.

The Company sells its products separately and in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables that include website/data subscriptions, educational workshops, online workshops and training, one-on-one coaching and counseling sessions, along with other products and services. In accordance with ASC 605-25, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control. The fair value of each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold separately. In certain arrangements, we offer these products bundled together.  As per ASC 605-25, if fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized as revenue.  The deferral policy for each of the different types of revenues is summarized as follows:

   

Product   Recognition Policy
Live Workshops and Workshop Certificates   Deferred and recognized as the workshop is provided or certificate expires
     
Online training and courses   Deferred and recognized a.) as the services are delivered, or b.) when usage thresholds are met, or c.) on a straight-line basis over the initial product period
     
Coaching/Counseling services   Deferred and recognized as services are delivered, or on a straight-line basis over the life of the customer’s contract
     
Website/data fees (monthly)   Not deferred, recognized in the month delivered
     
Website/data fees (pre-paid subscriptions)   Deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the subscription period

 

Cost of Sales and Service

 

The cost of sales and service consists of the cost of the data feeds that supply real time and stock market data to the Company’s stock analysis software based tool, external partner commissions and other costs associated with the repair or maintenance of the website.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012. The respective carrying value of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximated their fair values. These financial instruments include cash and accounts payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for cash and payables because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are payable on demand.

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for its stock based awards in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation (“ASC 718-10”), which requires a fair value measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to its employees and directors, including employee stock options and restricted stock awards. The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes valuation model. This model requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions including, among other things, estimates regarding the length of time an employee will retain vested stock options before exercising them, the estimated volatility of our common stock price and the number of options that will be forfeited prior to vesting. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Changes in these estimates and assumptions can materially affect the determination of the fair value of stock-based compensation and consequently, the related amount recognized in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not grant stock options to employees. The fair value of vesting options granted in previous years and vested during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012 of $26,973 and $53,947, respectively, and $26,974 and $53,948 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2011 was recorded as a current period charge to earnings.

 

In addition, the Company issued a restricted stock units ("RSU") during the six months ended September 30, 2012. The fair value of the vesting RSU of $151,783 and $210,377 was recorded as a current period charge to earnings during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012.

 

Net Loss per Share

 

The Company follows Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”) specifying the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements of earnings per share information. Basic loss per share has been calculated based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. The Company excluded 540,250 and 380,455 shares of common stock equivalents, that would be resulted from conversion of convertible debt, or exercise of stock options and warrants, from the diluted loss per share because their effect is anti-dilutive on the computation for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Reliance on Key Personnel and Consultants

 

The Company has only 18 full-time employees and no part-time employees.  Additionally, there are approximately 8 consultants performing various specialized services.  The Company is heavily dependent on the continued active participation of these current executive officers, employees and key consultants. The loss of any of the senior management or key consultants could significantly and negatively impact the business until adequate replacements can be identified and put in place.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. GOING CONCERN MATTERS

 

The Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern which contemplates the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has incurred significant recurring losses which have resulted in an accumulated deficit of $78,021,899, net loss of $2,154,158 and net cash used in operations of $461,972 for the six months ended September 30, 2012 which raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Continuation as a going concern is dependent upon obtaining additional capital and upon the Company’s attaining profitable operations. The Company will require a substantial amount of additional funds to complete the development of its products, to build a sales and marketing organization, and to fund additional losses which the Company expects to incur over the next few years. The management of the Company intends to seek additional funding through a Private Placement Offering which will be utilized to fund product development and continue operations. The Company recognizes that, if it is unable to raise additional capital, it may find it necessary to substantially reduce or cease operations.

Subsequent financing

 

To obtain additional funding for working capital, Investview entered into Subscription Agreements during the period from October 22, 2012 through October 24, 2012, with two accredited investors (the “October 2012 Investors”) for the sale of an aggregate of (i) $800,000 in 8% Secured Convertible Promissory Notes (the “Notes”) and (ii) Common Stock Purchase Warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 87,500 shares of our common stock. The closings occurred during the period from October 22, 2012 through October 24, 2012. One of the notes for $100,000 has a forward funding date of not later than December 15, 2012. A second note for $300,000 has a forward funding date of no later than March 15, 2012. The third note for $400,000 has a forward funding date of no later than April 15, 2012.

 

The Notes bear interest at 8%, mature three years from the date of issuance, and are convertible into our common stock, at the October 2012 Investor’s option, at a conversion price of $4.00 per share. Based on this conversion price, the Notes in an aggregate amount of $800,000 excluding interest are convertible into an aggregate of 200,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

 

The Company may prepay the Notes only with the written consent of the holder. The full principal amount of the Notes is due upon default under the terms of Notes. In addition, we have granted the October 2012 Investors a security interest in substantially all of our assets and intellectual property.

 

The Warrants are exercisable for a period of five years from the date of issuance at an exercise price of $6.00 per share.

 

The final sale of the Notes was completed on October 24, 2012. As of the date hereof, the Company is obligated on $800,000 in face amount of Note issued to the October 2012 Investors. The Notes are a debt obligation arising other than in the ordinary course of business which constitute a direct financial obligation of the Company.

 

The Notes and Warrants were offered and sold to the and October 2012 Investors in a private placement transaction made in reliance upon exemptions from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) under the Securities Act of 1933 and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder.

 

13.  FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

 

The Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments (“ASC 825-10”) on January 1, 2008. ASC 825-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be recorded at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact and considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability, such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions, and risk of nonperformance. ASC 825-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 825-10 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

 

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

SEPTEMBER 30, 2012

 

 To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement is disclosed and is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Upon adoption of ASC 825-10, there was no cumulative effect adjustment to beginning retained earnings and no impact on the consolidated financial statements.

 

The carrying value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term borrowings (including convertible notes payable), and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value because of their short-term maturity.

 

The following table provides a summary of changes in fair value of the Company’s Level 3 financial liabilities as of September 30, 2012:

 

   Warrant 
   Derivative 
   Liability 
Balance, March 31, 2012  $9,862

Corporate History

 

InvestView, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as the “Company”, “InvestView” or “INVU”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on August 1, 2005. Effective September 18, 2006, the Company changed its name to TheRetirementSolution.com, Inc., on October 1, 2008 the Company changed its name to Global Investor Services, Inc. and on March 27, 2012, the Company changed its name to InvestView, Inc. The Company was initially formed to market portfolios of stocks via subscription. In 2007, a new chief executive officer was installed and a strategy was developed to create and market a diverse portfolio of products and services for the financial education and financial information industry. This strategy included strategic acquisitions, such as the acquisitions of Razor Data, LLC and Investment Tools and Training, LLC, which have provided the Company with an integrated platform in which it can market and deliver investor education products and investor services. The stock symbol is INVU.

 

Business Overview

 

As an investor technology and education company, we provide a broad suite of state-of-the-art products that allow the individual investor to find, analyze, track and manage his or her portfolio. Our educational services focus on empowering investors with the skills that allow them to rely on their own investing knowledge to make intelligent and sound investment decisions. Our flagship product is InvestView, an all-inclusive on-line education, analysis and application platform. InvestView is equipped with in-house, qualified professionals who have collectively taught over a quarter of a million students in the past decade on how to trade in the stock market.

 

These tools and educational programs arm the common investor and provide them with the ability to traverse today's turbulent marketplace, regardless of the direction of the market - whether it is moving up, down or sideways.

 

It is our opinion that now, more than ever before, it is critical that the individual investor come to understand the forces that influence the marketplace. We specialize in assisting common investors through this process by offering them the tools, training and confidence that is required to successfully navigate the market in these trying times.

 

Regardless of investors' ages or varying backgrounds, we help the everyday investor turn market uncertainty into opportunity. We do this by providing powerful investment tools and training, coupled with a rules-based system that allows individuals to make more intelligent and disciplined investment decisions.

 

25
 

 

 We are committed to the education and support of the individual investor. Our innovative products, proprietary tools and all-inclusive platform are cost effective and engineered to meet the needs of investors world-wide.

 

The Company’s unique offerings include:

 

  · A comprehensive program of successively more complex financial educational courses that are sold to customers on a subscription basis and are delivered on line through the Company’s website;

 

  · In–house developed trading tools with actionable trading indicators;

 

  · Blogs, newsletters and other reference materials that describe investment strategies; and

 

  · Mentoring, coaching and advisory services that are available on a subscription basis.

 

The Company believes that offering financial information and financial education, in one integrated operating platform, is a viable business strategy, but needs to evolve for greater diversification and shareholder value. Currently, our business model monetizes our products and services primarily from subscription revenues. Online brokers bundle the cost of their education platform into the commission and spreads they charge. To better monetize the value of our scalable platform, we believe our business strategy needs to evolve to be more like the online brokerage model.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three months ended September 30, 2012 compared to three months ended September 30, 2011:

 

Revenues:

 

   Three Months Ended   Three Months Ended         
   September 30, 2012   September 30, 2011   Variance 
Subscription revenues  $390,835    100%  $556,947    100%  $(166,112)   (30)%

 

We realized a drop in our revenues of 31% for the three months ended September 30, 2012 from the prior year as we transition to our online based modeling. The New York Stock Exchange Composite Volume experienced a similar drop for the same period equal to 30%. We proactively introduced both new products and a new marketing strategy to improve the lifetime value of our accounts. We are now emphasizing our online based business model which provides subscription based services including trading ideas, tools and education through live and recorded webinars and is marketed through a number of online media channels. Our trading and education tools are located at www.investview.com whereas our 7 minute trader product has its own website at www.7minute trader.com.

 

As we measured the attrition rates of the trading and education offerings we determined that their lifetime value was approximating our cost of acquisition. As clients move through the education modules they tend to exhaust their interest and either attrite or shift to the lower priced trading modules. Introduction of the 7 minute trader has resulted in a better adoption rate, a markedly improved retention rate and significantly lower acquisition costs.

 

The new 7 minute trader product saw a 30% reduction from the June 2012 quarter for an - adoption rate. The 7 minute trader is advertised at $49.95 per month whereas the trading and education tools are advertised at $99 and $199 per month. This quarter we recorded approximately $171,000 of receipts for this product versus about $223,000 in the June 2012 quarter. For the core education and legacy products, receipts for this quarter fell to approximately $175,000 from about $254,000 in the June 2012 quarter. So there was no deceleration of the attrition rates on the core education and legacy products in spite of the slower summer season.

 

This quarter also included about $25,000 more accretion of deferred revenues than the June 2012 quarter.

Operating Costs and Expenses:

 

A summary of significant operating costs and expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and the three months ended September 30, 2011 follows:

 

   Three Months   Three Months         
   Ended   Ended         
   September 30, 2012   September 30, 2011   Variance 
Costs of sales and services  $169,275    13%  $185,856    8%  $(16,581)   (9)%
Selling, general and administrative   1,125,864    84%   2,044,623    90%   (918,759)   (45)%
Depreciation and amortization   51,834    3%   52,718    2%   (884)   (2)%
Total  $1,346,973    100%  $2,283,197    100%  $(936,224)   (41)%

 

Operating costs were substantially lower year over year, primarily from a reduction of selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, our cost of sales and service was $169,275 as compared to $185,856 during the three months ended September 30, 2011. Most of this expense is composed of stock market data feeds to the Company’s core educational product line’s stock analysis tools. As a percentage of revenues, the operating margin decreased to 57% in the current quarter from 67% in the same quarter last year primarily because of the reduction in revenue.

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $2,044,623 for the three months ended September 30, 2011 to $1,125,864 in current 2012 period or $918,759 (45%). Last year the Company incurred $452,931 as stock based compensation as compared to $402,717 for the current period. In addition, for the three months ended September 30, 2011, we incurred $180,000 in marketing accretion as compared to nil for current year period.

 

This quarter we spent approximately $46,000 on direct marketing or 12% of revenues versus 96% or about $535,000 for the same quarter last year.

 

Depreciation and amortization decreased from $52,718 to $51,834 or a decrease of $884 due to the full amortization of certain property and equipment during the last fiscal year.

 

Other:

 

A summary of significant other income (expenses) for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and the three months ended September 30, 2012 follows:

 

   Three Months   Three Months     
   Ended   Ended     
   September 30, 2012   September 30, 2011   Variance 
Interest  $(184,482)   (149)%  $(1,632,129)   55%  $1,447,647    89%
Gain (loss) on change in fair value of warrant and derivatives  $3,751    3%  $18,775    (1)%  $(15,024)   (80)%
Gain (loss) on settlement of debt   304,065    246%   (1,331,410)   46%   1,635,475    123%
Interest and other, net   40    -%   (42)   -%   82    (196)%
Total  $123,374    100%  $(2,944,806)   100%  $3,068,180    104%

 

Interest expense decreased from $1,632,129 to $184,482, a $1,447,647 or 89% decrease.  The decrease is because of the significant recapitalization of the Company over the past year.

 

27
 

 

During the year ended March 31, 2010, we issued promissory notes and related warrants that contain certain reset provisions.  As such, we are required to record these reset provisions as a liability and mark them to market each reporting period.  For the three months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a gain of $3,751 in change in the fair value of these reset provisions vs. a gain for the three months ended September 30, 2011 of $18,775. The volatility of our stock price increased in fiscal year 2012 from the prior fiscal year. This increase in volatility caused the value of the warrants to increase and resulted in some of the loss in the current period.

 

In addition, during the year ended March 31, 2012, we modified a significant number of these outstanding warrants and reduced the number of warrants with reset provisions to 2,500 warrants.

 

For the three months ended September 30, 2011, we settled or restructured a significant portion of our outstanding convertible debt obligations and warrants containing reset provisions.  As such, we incurred a loss on debt settlement of $1,331,410 as compared to a gain of $304,065 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as a primary result of settlement of an outstanding note payable.

 

Six months ended September 30, 2012 compared to six months ended September 30, 2011:

 

Revenues:

 

   Six Months Ended   Six Months Ended         
   September 30, 2012   September 30, 2011   Variance 
Subscription revenues  $946,489    100%  $1,090,109    0%  $(143,620)   (13)%

 

We realized a drop in our revenues of 13% for the six months ended September 30, 2012 from the prior year as we transition to our online based modeling. We proactively introduced both new products and a new marketing strategy to improve the lifetime value of our accounts. We are now emphasizing our online based business model which provides subscription based services including trading ideas, tools and education through live and recorded webinars and is marketed through a number of online media channels. Our trading and education tools are located at www.investview.com whereas our 7 minute trader product has its own website at www.7minute trader.com.

As clients move through the education modules they tend to exhaust their interest and either attrite or shift to the lower priced trading modules. Introduction of the 7 minute trader has resulted in a better adoption rate, a markedly improved retention rate and significantly lower acquisition costs.

During the six months ended September 30, 2012, our cost of sales and service was $325,362 as compared to $389,087 during the six months ended September 30, 2011. Most of this expense is composed of stock market data feeds to the Company’s core educational product line’s stock analysis tools. As a percentage of revenues, the operating margin improved to 66% in the current quarter from 64% in the same quarter last year primarily because the reduction in revenue.

 

Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased from $3,750,376 for the six months ended September 30, 2011 to $2,591,757 in current 2012 period or $1,158,619 (31%). Last year the Company incurred approximately $1,412,000 as stock based compensation as compared to $1,231,102 for the current period. In addition, for the six months ended September 30, 2011, we incurred $270,000 in marketing accretion as compared to nil for current year period.

 

This quarter we spent approximately $140,000 on direct marketing or 15% of revenues versus 70% or about $764,000 for the same quarter last year.

 

Depreciation and amortization decreased from $105,435 to $103,667 or a decrease of $1,768 due to the full amortization of certain property and equipment during the last fiscal year.

A summary of significant other income (expenses) for the six months ended September 30, 2012 and the six months ended September 30, 2012 follows:

 

   Six Months   Six Months     
   Ended   Ended     
   September 30, 2012   September 30, 2011   Variance 
Interest  $(347,603)   (435)%  $(2,052,200)   52%  $1,704,597    83%
Gain (loss) on change in fair value of warrant and derivatives  $(137)   -%  $46,965    (1)%  $(47,102)   (100)%
Gain (loss) on settlement of debt   267,678    335%   (1,911,211)   49%   2,178,889    114%
Interest and other, net   201    -%   (48)   -%   249    - 
Total  $(79,861)   100%  $(3,916,494)   100%  $3,836,633    98%

 

Interest expense decreased from $2,052,200 to $347,603, a $1,704,597 or 83% decrease.  The decrease is because of the significant recapitalization of the Company over the past year.

 

During the year ended March 31, 2010, we issued promissory notes and related warrants that contain certain reset provisions.  As such, we are required to record these reset provisions as a liability and mark them to market each reporting period.  For the six months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded a loss of $137 in change in the fair value of these reset provisions vs. a gain for the three months ended September 30, 2011 of $46,965. The volatility of our stock price increased in fiscal year 2012 from the prior fiscal year. This increase in volatility caused the value of the warrants to increase and resulted in some of the loss in the current period.

 

In addition, during the year ended March 31, 2012, we modified a significant number of these outstanding warrants and reduced the number of warrants with reset provisions to 2,500 warrants.

 

In addition, for the six months ended September 30, 2011, we settled or restructured a significant portion of our outstanding convertible debt obligations and warrants containing reset provisions.  As such, we incurred a loss on debt settlement of $1,911,211 as compared to a gain of $267,678 for the six months ended September 30, 2012 as a primary result of settlement of outstanding note payable.

Cash Used in Operating Activities:

 

During the six months ended September 30, 2012, we were able to decrease our rate of usage of cash on a monthly basis from operations to approximately $77,000 as compared to approximately $158,000 in the same period last year. We anticipate we will see enhanced cash flow from operations at the point we produce profits as we will be able to utilize our Net Operating Loss Carry-forwards. With our recent acquisitions we anticipate more opportunities to generate revenues and from varied sources.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During six months ended September 30, 2012, the Company incurred a loss from operations of $2,154,158. However, only $461,972 was cash related. This negative cash flow was funded by existing cash, issuance and closing of $500,000 of additional convertible notes payable and borrowing from related parties. As a result, our cash and cash equivalents increased by $3,003 to $182,924 from the beginning of the fiscal year of $179,921.

 

The Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets (working capital deficit) by $986,015 as of September 30, 2012 as compared to $952,214 at March 31, 2012. The increase in the working capital deficit is primarily due to the combination of increased accounts payable and accrued expenses of $177,957. We anticipate funding and closing of the remaining $200,000 of August convertible notes in the December 2012 Quarter. In addition we anticipate $100,000 of the October convertible notes funding and closing in the December Quarter. We also anticipate the funding and closing of the remaining October convertible notes of $700,000 in March and April of 2013.

 

Auditor’s Opinion Expresses Doubt About the Company’s Ability to Continue as a “Going Concern”

 

The independent auditors report on our March 31, 2012 consolidated financial statements states that the Company's historical losses and accumulated deficiency raise substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, due to the losses incurred and deficiency. If we are unable to develop our business, we will have to reduce, discontinue operations or cease to exist, which would be detrimental to the value of the Company's common stock. We can make no assurances that our business operations will develop and provide us with significant cash to continue operations.

 

In order to improve the Company's liquidity, the Company's management is actively pursuing additional financing through discussions with investment bankers, financial institutions and private investors. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in its effort to secure additional financing.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions. While there are a number of significant accounting policies affecting our consolidated financial statements; we believe the following critical accounting policy involves the most complex, difficult and subjective estimates and judgments.

Revenue Recognition

 

For revenue from product sales and services, the Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 605-10, Revenue Recognition (“ASC 605-10”) which requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company defers any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.

 

Revenue arises from subscriptions to the websites/software, workshops, online workshops and training and coaching/counseling services where the customers are charged a monthly subscription fee for access to the online training and courses and website/data.  All revenues are recognized in the month the products and services are delivered.

 

We sell our products separately and in various bundles that contain multiple deliverables that include website/data subscriptions, educational workshops, online workshops and training, one-on-one coaching and counseling sessions, along with other products and services. In accordance with 605-25, sales arrangements with multiple deliverables are divided into separate units of accounting if the deliverables in the arrangement meet the following criteria: (i) the product has value to the customer on a standalone basis; (ii) there is objective and reliable evidence of the fair value of undelivered items; and (iii) delivery or performances of any undelivered item is probable and substantially in our control. The fair value of each separate element is generally determined by prices charged when sold separately. In certain arrangements, we offer these products bundled together.  If there is any discount from the combined fair value of the individual elements, the discount is allocated to the portion of the revenues that is attributed to the online courses and training. As per 605-25, if fair value of all undelivered elements in an arrangement exists, but fair value does not exist for a delivered element, then revenue is recognized using the residual method. Under the residual method, the fair value of undelivered elements is deferred and the remaining portion of the arrangement fee (after allocation of 100 percent of any discount to the delivered item) is recognized as revenue.  The deferral policy for each of the different types of revenues is summarized as follows:

 

Product   Recognition Policy
     
Live Workshops and Workshop Certificates   Deferred and recognized as the workshop is provided or certificate expires
     
Online training and courses   Deferred and recognized a.) as the services are delivered, or b.) when usage thresholds are met, or c.) on a straight-line basis over the initial product period
     
Coaching/Counseling services   Deferred and recognized as services are delivered, or on a straight-line basis over the term of the service contract
     
Website/data fees (monthly)   Not deferred, recognized in the month delivered
     
Website/data fees (pre-paid subscriptions)   Deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the subscription period

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company has adopted Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Compensation-Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees, directors and key consultants including employee stock options and employee stock purchases related to an Employee Stock Purchase Plan based on the estimated fair values.

 

For the six months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not grant stock options to employees. The fair value of vesting options granted in previous years and vested during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012 of $26,973 and $53,947, respectively, and $26,974 and $53,948 for the three and six months ended September 30, 2011 was recorded as a current period charge to earnings.

 

In addition, the Company issued a restricted stock units ("RSU") during the six months ended September 30, 2012. The fair value of the vesting RSU of $151,783 and $210,377 was recorded as a current period charge to earnings during the three and six months ended September 30, 2012.

 

Derivative Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

We have evaluated the application of Accounting Standards Codification 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging, Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (“ASC 815-40”) to certain freestanding warrants and convertible promissory notes that contain exercise price adjustment features known as reset provisions.  Based on the guidance in ASC 815-40, we have concluded these instruments are required to be accounted for as derivatives effective upon issuance.

 

We have recorded the fair value of the warrants and reset provisions of the convertible promissory notes and classified as derivative liabilities in our balance sheet at fair value with changes in the value of these derivatives reflected in the consolidated statements of operations as gain or loss on derivative liabilities.  These derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815-10.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were various updates recently issued, most of which represented technical corrections to the accounting literature or application to specific industries and are not expected to a have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

The Company does not have any off balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues, and results of operations, liquidity or capital expenditures.

 

ITEM 3 - QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

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

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of our disclosure control system are met. Because of inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues, if any, within a company have been detected. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded, based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

Control Deficiencies and Remediation Plan


Management has identified control deficiencies regarding the lack of segregation of duties and the need for a stronger internal control environment. Management of the Company believes that these material weaknesses are due to the small size of the Company’s accounting staff and reliance on outside consultants for external reporting.  The small size of the Company’s accounting staff may prevent adequate controls in the future, such as segregation of duties, due to the cost/benefit of such remediation.

 

To mitigate the current limited resources and limited employees, we rely heavily on direct management oversight of transactions, along with the use of outside legal and accounting professionals. As we grow, we expect to increase our number of employees, which will enable us to implement adequate segregation of duties within the internal control framework.

 

These control deficiencies could result in a misstatement of account balances that would result in a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement to our consolidated financial statements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Accordingly, we have determined that these control deficiencies as described above together constitute a material weakness.

 

Changes in Internal Controls

 

Other than mentioned above, there were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

We are not involved in a legal proceeding which commenced or in which there was a material development during the quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Dr. Louro’s contract allowed for an award up to 275,000 shares for his efforts to redirect the Company resulting in significant benefits accruing to the Company. The Board cited the following significant benefits that accrued to the Company from Dr. Louro’s first five quarters with the Company; creation of a strategy for diversified revenue streams (i.e., the opportunity for more revenue coming from transactions and/or fees for assets under management versus the current subscription model), significant amounts of capital raised at better terms and longer durations, elimination of costly revenue sharing agreements, reductions in overhead, improvement of cash flow, investing significant amounts of his own money, restructuring the debt at significant discounts and replacing the leverage with stock, identifying and executing on a number of acquisitions, joint ventures and white label agreements, and recruiting some high level management at advantageous compensation levels and, initially, without negative cash flow.
