NOTES
TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of LiveDeal, Inc. (formerly YP Corp.), a Nevada corporation, and
its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the “Company”). The
Company is an Internet-based provider of yellow page directories and online
local classified ads on or through www.YP.com, www.YP.net, www.Yellow-Page.net,
and www.livedeal.com. No material or information contained on these
websites is a part of these notes or this Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been
eliminated in consolidation.
The
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2007,
which has been derived from audited financial statements, and the accompanying
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine
months ended June 30, 2008 and for the three and nine months ended June 30,
2007, respectively,
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the
information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles
for audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management,
the interim information includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the
interim periods. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended
June 30, 2008 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for
the year ending September 30, 2008. The footnote disclosures related to the
interim financial information included herein are also unaudited. Such financial
information should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes thereto as of September 30, 2007 and for the year
then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year
ended September 30, 2007.
The
preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Significant estimates and assumptions have been used by
management throughout the preparation of the consolidated financial statements
including in conjunction with establishing allowances for customer refunds,
non-paying customers, dilution and fees, analyzing the recoverability of the
carrying amount of intangible assets, estimating forfeitures of restricted stock
and evaluating the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.

Mesa, Arizona that housed certain customer service functions, IT functions and
corporate administration. The corporate and IT functions are being
relocated to our Las Vegas, Nevada offices and our customer service functions
are being transitioned to our offices in the Philippines. We applied
the provisions of SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or
Disposal Activities” in accounting for these events and recorded an expense of
$15,942 related to the disposal of certain assets. The Company also
disposed of a significant amount of fully depreciated assets in connection with

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The
accompanying consolidated unaudited financial statements include the results of
LiveDeal, Inc. and OnCall Subscriber Management Inc. from June 6, 2007 and July
10, 2007, their respective dates of acquisition. The following table
provides pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended
June 30, 2007 as if LiveDeal had been acquired as of the beginning of the
period. The pro forma results include certain purchase accounting adjustments
such as the estimated changes in amortization expense on acquired intangible
assets, increased compensation expense resulting from the compensation
obligations to LiveDeal executives and the elimination of interest expense on
borrowings that were satisfied through the acquisition. However, pro
forma results do not include any anticipated cost savings or other effects of
the integration of LiveDeal. Accordingly, such amounts are not
necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if the
acquisition had occurred on the dates indicated or that may result in the
future.

Company acquired 137,295 shares of its common stock at market prices during the
nine months ended June 30, 2008 at an aggregate cost of $500,901. The
majority of these shares have been retired. As of June 30, 2008, the
Company held 2,000 shares of treasury stock at a cost of $4,845.
5. STOCK-BASED
COMPENSATION
From time
to time, the Company grants restricted stock awards to officers, directors,
employees and consultants. Such awards are valued based on the grant
date fair-value of the instruments, net of estimated forfeitures. The value of
each award is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting
period.
Each
quarter, the Company evaluates its historical forfeitures on vested awards and
adjusts the amount of stock-based compensation expense to reflect actual
forfeiture rates. Additionally, the Company evaluates its estimates
of forfeitures for unvested awards when facts and circumstances indicate that a
change may be needed. During the three months ended June 30, 2008,
the Company performed an analysis of its estimated forfeiture rate and
determined that, in light of historical experience, it was appropriate to
increase its estimates of forfeitures for directors and officers from 30% to 40%
and for all other employees and consultants from 60% and 70%. The net
impact of this change in estimate (excluding tax effects) was to decrease stock
based compensation by $280,782 during the three and nine months ended June 30,
2008.

Litigation
On June
4, 2008, Global Education Services, Inc. (“Global”) filed a class action lawsuit
against the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Telco Billing Inc.,
alleging that certain of the Company’s marketing practices were
deceptive. The lawsuit is Global Education Services, Inc. v.
LiveDeal, Inc. et al. (Class Action No. 08-2-19503-1 SEA) and was filed in the
Superior Court of the State of Washington for King County. In its
complaint, Global alleged that the Company engaged in deceptive marketing
practices in violation of the Washington Consumer Protection
Act. Global sought declaratory and injunctive relief, treble damages
and recovery of its litigation fees and expenses.
On August
1, 2008, the Company provided notice that it was removing the lawsuit from
Washington Superior Court to the United States District Court for the Western
District of Washington. The federal case number is
C08-1153JLR. As of the date of this report, further action is pending
in the United States District Court.
The
Company is party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the conduct of its
business. Management believes that the outcome of pending legal proceedings will
not, either individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on
the Company’s business, financial position, results of operations, cash flows or
liquidity.
8. INCOME
TAXES
The
Company provides for income taxes based on the provisions of SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income
Taxes, which, among
other things, requires that recognition of deferred income taxes be measured by
the provisions of enacted tax laws in effect at the date of the financial
statements. The Company records, among other items, deferred tax assets related
to book-tax differences in the recognition of restricted stock awards to
officers, directors, employees and consultants. During the three and
nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, a portion of our restricted stock
awards had vested and, due to declines in our stock price from grant date to
vest date, the tax effects of the vesting of these awards were less than the
carrying value of our related deferred tax assets. Accordingly, the
Company incurred an additional $421,657 and $144,630 of income tax expense for
the three months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, respectively and $445,022 and
$279,342 of income tax expense for the nine months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007,
respectively, related to the write-off of these deferred tax
assets. Such amounts served to reduce the income tax benefit in the
three and nine months ended June 30, 2008 and increase income tax expense in the
three and nine months ended June 30, 2007, respectively.

9. NET
INCOME (LOSS) PER
SHARE
Net
income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average number of
shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Basic weighted
average common shares outstanding do not include shares of restricted stock that
have not yet vested, although such shares are included as outstanding shares in
the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated balance
sheet. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed using the
weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common
shares outstanding during the period. Potential common shares consist of the
incremental common shares issuable from restricted shares and convertible
preferred stock. The dilutive effect of outstanding restricted shares is
reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the treasury stock
method. Convertible preferred stock is reflected on an if-converted basis.
Preferred stock dividends are subtracted from net income to determine the
amount available to common stockholders.
The

10. CONCENTRATION
OF CREDIT RISK
The
Company maintains cash balances at major nationwide institutions in Arizona and
Nevada. Accounts are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation up to $100,000.
Financial
instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit
risk are primarily trade accounts receivable. The trade accounts
receivable are due primarily from business customers over widespread
geographical locations within the LEC billing areas across the United
States. The Company historically has experienced significant dilution
and customer credits due to billing difficulties and uncollectible trade
accounts receivable. The Company estimates and provides an allowance
for uncollectible accounts receivable. The handling and processing of
cash receipts pertaining to trade accounts receivable is maintained primarily by
three third-party billing companies. The net receivable due from
these entities represented 38%, 22% and 20%, respectively, of the Company’s
total net accounts receivable (excluding non-specific reserves) at June 30,
2008.

11. RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS No.
157”). SFAS No. 157 establishes a framework for measuring fair value under
generally accepted accounting procedures and expands disclosures on fair value
measurements. This statement applies under previously established valuation
pronouncements and does not require the changing of any fair value measurements,
though it may cause some valuation procedures to change. Under SFAS No. 157,
fair value is established by the price that would be received to sell the item
or the amount to be paid to transfer the liability of the asset as opposed to
the price to be paid
for the asset or received to transfer the liability. Further, it defines fair
value as a market specific valuation as opposed to an entity specific valuation,
though the statement does recognize that there may be instances when the low
amount of market activity for a particular item or liability may challenge an
entity’s ability to establish a market amount. In the instances that the item is
restricted, this pronouncement states that the owner of the asset or liability
should take into consideration what affects the restriction would have if viewed
from the perspective of the buyer or assumer of the liability. This statement is
effective for all assets valued in financial statements for fiscal years
beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact of SFAS No. 157 on its financial position and result of
operations.
In
February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial
Assets and Financial Liabilities (“SFAS No. 159”), which provides companies with
an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair
value. SFAS No. 159 also establishes presentation and disclosure
requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose
different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and
liabilities. SFAS No. 159 is effective as of the beginning of an
entity’s first fiscal year beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption
allowed. The Company has not yet determined what impact, if any, that
adopting this standard might have on its financial position and results of
operations.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), Business
Combinations (“SFAS No. 141(R)”) and No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Financial Statements, an amendment of ARB No. 51 (“SFAS No. 160”).
SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No. 160 are products of a joint project between the
FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board. The revised
standards continue the movement toward the greater use of fair values in
financial reporting. SFAS No. 141(R) will significantly change how business
acquisitions are accounted for and will impact financial statements both on the
acquisition date and in subsequent periods. These changes include the expensing
of acquisition related costs and restructuring costs when incurred, the
recognition of all assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests at fair
value during a step-acquisition, and the recognition of contingent consideration
as of the acquisition date if it is more likely than not to be
incurred. SFAS No. 160 will change the accounting and reporting for
minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests
and classified as a component of equity. SFAS No. 141(R) and SFAS No.
160 are effective for both public and private companies for fiscal years
beginning on or after December 15, 2008 (October 1, 2009 for the Company). SFAS
No. 141(R) will be applied prospectively. SFAS No. 160 requires retroactive
adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority
interests. All other requirements of SFAS No. 160 shall be applied
prospectively. Early adoption is prohibited for both standards. The
Company is currently evaluating the effects of these pronouncements on its
financial position and results of operations.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities - an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 ("SFAS 161").
SFAS 161 modifies existing requirements to include qualitative disclosures
regarding the objectives and strategies for using derivatives, fair value
amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about
credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. The
pronouncement also requires the cross-referencing of derivative disclosures
within the financial statements and notes thereto. The requirements of SFAS 161
are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after November 15, 2008.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of SFAS 161 on
its financial statements.
In April
2008, the FASB issued FSP No. FAS 142-3, Determination of the Useful Life of
Intangible Assets ("FSP FAS 142-3")- FSP FAS 142-3 amends the factors that
should be considered in developing renewal or extension assumptions used to
determine the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under SFAS No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. The intent of the position is to improve
the consistency between the useful life of a recognized intangible asset under
SFAS No. 142 and the period of expected cash flows used to measure the fair
value of the asset under SFAS No. 141(R), and other GAAP. FSP FAS 142-3 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. FSP FAS 142-3 is
effective for the Company on October 1, 2009. The Company is currently
evaluating the impact that the adoption of FSP FAS 142-3 will have on its
financial condition, results of operations, and disclosures.
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles ("SFAS 162"). SFAS 162 identifies the sources of
accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the
preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are
presented in conformity with GAAP. This statement shall be effective 60 days
following the Securities and Exchange Commission's approval of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, The Meaning of
Present Fairly in Conformity With Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of SFAS 162 will
have on its financial condition, results of operations, and
disclosures.
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, Accounting for Financial Guarantee Insurance
Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60 ("SFAS 163"). The scope of
SFAS 163 is limited to financial guarantee insurance (and reinsurance)
contracts. The pronouncement is effective for fiscal years beginning after
December 31, 2008. The Company does not believe this pronouncement will impact
its financial statements.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
For a
description of our significant accounting policies and an understanding of the
significant factors that influenced our performance during the three and nine
months ended June 30, 2008, this “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” (hereafter referred
to as “MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial
Statements, including the related notes, appearing in Part I, Item 1 of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for
the year ended September 30, 2007 as filed on May 13, 2008.
Forward-Looking
Statements
This
portion of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, includes statements that
constitute “forward-looking statements.” These forward-looking
statements are often characterized by the terms “may,” “believes,” “projects,”
“expects,” or “anticipates,” and do not reflect historical
facts. Specific forward-looking statements contained herein include,
but are not limited to our expectation that continued investment in online
advertising to bring increased traffic to our websites will drive increased
revenues; our belief that our existing cash on hand will provide us with
sufficient liquidity to meet our operating needs for the next 12 months; the
anticipated benefits relating to our acquisition of LiveDeal, Inc.; and our
intention to continue to invest in online advertising.
Forward-looking
statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may cause our
actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from
those expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Factors and risks that could affect our results and
achievements and cause them to materially differ from those contained in the
forward-looking statements include those identified in our Annual Report on Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2007 under Item 1A “Risk Factors”,
as well as other factors that we are currently unable to identify or quantify,
but that may exist in the future.
In
addition, the foregoing factors may affect generally our business, results of
operations, and financial position. Forward-looking statements speak
only as of the date the statement was made. We do not undertake and
specifically decline any obligation to update any forward-looking
statements.
Executive
Overview
We
maintain a combined local online classifieds and Yellow Pages marketplace with
millions of goods and services listed for sale, in nearly every city and zip
code across the U.S. By combining the benefits of classifieds, business
listings, mobile services, advertising/distribution networks and e-commerce into
a single online solution, we offer businesses and consumers an affordable and
effective solution for creating a web presence and marketing their products and
services locally. Through our online properties YP.com and LiveDeal.com, we
enable buyers and sellers to find and list business services, merchandise, real
estate, automobiles, pets and more in their local communities. Using our
marketplace, consumers can search or browse for items in a particular city,
state or zip code, or reach out on a national or global scope if they so
choose.

|
Pursuant
to the terms of his employment agreement dated September 19, 2006 (the
"Employment Agreement"), we paid Mr. Coury (i) his earned but unpaid salary and
vacation through May 19, 2008 and (ii) a one-time lump sum payment of $496,000
in connection with his termination. Of the 155,000 shares of restricted stock of
the Company that Mr. Coury owned at the date of his departure, 111,667 shares
were immediately vested and the remaining 43,333 shares were forfeited and
cancelled. Mr. Coury will also be maintained on our health, dental and
disability benefit plans (or reimbursed for similar coverage in the event that
we are unable to maintain him on such plans) for a period of 12 months. As
required under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Coury provided us with a general
release of any and all claims relating to his employment and/or the termination
thereof in consideration of the payments described above.
Each of
the above members of our Board receives monthly compensation of $3,000 per month
with the exception of Mr. Navar, who receives $6,000 per month as the Chairman
of our Board of Directors. Chairpersons of the Audit
and Compensation committees receive additional compensation of $10,000 per
annum, respectively.
In
exchange for his role as Interim Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Edelhart receives

years from the date of grant.
Relocation
of Certain Functions
During
the three months ended June 30, 2008, we began closing our corporate offices in
Mesa, Arizona that housed certain customer service functions, IT functions and
corporate administration. The corporate and IT functions are being
relocated to our Las Vegas, Nevada offices and our customer service functions
are being transitioned to our operations in the Philippines. We
applied the provisions of SFAS No. 146, “Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities” in accounting for these events and recorded an
expense of $15,942 related to the disposal of certain assets in connection with
this relocation.
Listing
on NASDAQ Capital Market
On
February 1, 2008, we began trading on the NASDAQ Capital
Market. Concurrent with this change, our ticker symbol was
changed from LVDL.OB to LIVE.
Acquisition
of LiveDeal, Inc.
On June
6, 2007, we completed the acquisition of LiveDeal, Inc.
(“LiveDeal”). LiveDeal developed and operates an online local
classifieds marketplace, www.livedeal.com, which lists millions of goods and
services for sale in almost every city and zip code across the
U.S. The technology acquired in the acquisition offers such
classifieds functionality as fraud protection, identity protection, e-commerce,
listing enhancements, photos, community-building, package pricing, premium
stores, featured Yellow Page business listings and advanced local search
capabilities.
The
acquisition represents a major strategic event in our history, and we hope
results in significant efficiencies as well as future growth
opportunities. With the acquisition of LiveDeal, we are now able to
supplement our telemarketing campaigns with online marketing
efforts. Our online traffic acquisition strategy includes activities
in e-mail marketing, search engine marketing (“SEM”), search engine optimization
(“SEO”) partnerships with major online marketing companies, and the generation
of word of mouth advertising. We anticipate continued investment in
online advertising to bring increased traffic to our websites that should result
in increased value to the local business advertising community thereby driving
increased revenues.
We have
consolidated the results of LiveDeal in our consolidated financial statements
beginning June 6, 2007, the date of acquisition. The following table
provides pro forma results of operations for the three and nine months ended
June 30, 2007 as if LiveDeal had been acquired as of the beginning of the
period. The pro forma results include certain purchase accounting adjustments
such as the estimated changes in amortization expense on acquired intangible
assets, increased compensation expense resulting from the contractual obligation
for Mr. Navar’s salary and the elimination of interest expense on
borrowings that were satisfied through the acquisition. However, pro
forma results do not include any anticipated cost savings or other effects of
the integration of LiveDeal. Accordingly, such amounts are not
necessarily indicative of the results that would have occurred if the
acquisition had occurred on the dates indicated or that may result in the
future.

Net
income decreased in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to the second
quarter of fiscal 2008 due primarily to the following:
|
·
|
Net
revenues decreased by approximately $825,000 due primarily to a decrease
in revenues billed through Local Exchange Carriers (“LEC”s) of
approximately $469,000, a decrease in classified revenues of approximately
$214,000 (primarily due to decreased classified web revenue in the second
quarter and shortfalls in advertising and premium stores revenues) and a
decrease in ACH billings of approximately $91,000. With
respect to the decrease in LEC revenues, due to the LECs tightened
thresholds for customer inquiries, we are limited in the volume of new
customers that we are able to bill through the LEC channel, and our LEC
revenues have been negatively affected by these limitations and our normal
attrition. Because of this LEC limitation, an increasing number of newly
acquired customers must now be billed through direct invoicing
methods. Given our historical low levels of collectability, we
do not recognize revenue on direct bill accounts until such revenues have
been collected.
|
|
·
|
Cost
of services was roughly flat (increased by approximately
$24,000). While cost of services is typically correlated with
LEC revenues and we experienced a decline in LEC revenues, our cost per
account serviced increased due to changes in our customer base from
internally generated sales to customers acquired through wholesale
means. Wholesale accounts typically experience higher bad
debts, inquiry fees and other costs than internally generated
accounts.
|
|
·
|
General
and administrative expense increased by approximately $962,000 due to the
following:
|
|
o
|
Increased
compensation costs of approximately $804,000 primarily attributable
to:
|
|
§
|
$496,000
of severance costs associated with the termination of our former Chief
Executive Officer;
|
|
§
|
$281,000
of increased personnel costs associated with the development of a
telemarketing department; and
|
|
§
|
$439,000
of increased stock based compensation expense associated with the
accelerated vesting of stock awards to the former Chief Executive Officer;
partially offset by
|
|
§
|
$281,000
of decreased stock based compensation expense resulting from an increase
in the estimated forfeiture rate on awards based on historical forfeiture
experience; and
|
|
§
|
$131,000
of decreased compensation costs associated with other business
changes.
|
|
o
|
Other
cost increases in rent, depreciation, software expenses, recruiting fees,
legal and other professional fees of approximately $158,000 are
attributable to changes in our business including the development of
certain functions in our new Las Vegas headquarters, costs associated with
management turnover and other corporate
activities.
|
|
·
|
Sales
and marketing increased by approximately $37,000 due to the
following:
|
|
o
|
An
increase of approximately $387,000 in customer acquisition costs primarily
associated with the amortization of customer acquisition costs of a new
wholesale fulfillment contract acquired in the second quarter of fiscal
2008;
|
|
o
|
A
decrease of approximately $260,000 of Philippines telemarketing costs due
primarily to truing up estimated expense accruals for that
location; and
|
|
o
|
$90,000
of other expense reductions most of which was attributable to lower
branding expenditures.
|
|
·
|
Income
tax provision decreased by approximately $301,000 due primarily to
decreases in pretax income as described above, partially offset by the
write-off of approximately $422,000 of deferred tax assets associated with
vested restricted stock awards. During this period, a portion of our
restricted stock awards had vested and, due to declines in our stock price
from grant date to vest date, the tax effects of the vesting of these
awards were less than the carrying value of the related deferred tax
assets.

Net
revenues decreased in the third quarter of fiscal 2008 as compared to the third
quarter of fiscal 2007 due primarily to a decrease in revenues from
directory services of approximately $263,000 that was partially offset by
approximately $86,000 increase in classified and other revenues stemming from
our acquisition of LiveDeal. Our directory services were most negatively
affected by declines in ACH billing that have occurred over the last two years
in part due to the effects of the attorneys’ general settlement; while we
continue to offer this payment method as an option to our subscribers, it is not
used as significantly as in the past.
Net
revenues increased in the first nine months of fiscal 2008 as compared to the
first nine months of fiscal 2007 due to an increase in classified revenues of
approximately $1,145,000 stemming from our acquisition of LiveDeal in June 2007
(fiscal 2007 only reflected such revenues beginning on June 6, 2007, the date of
acquisition), partially offset by a decline in directory services accounts of
approximately $846,000, most notably through our ACH billing channel as
described above.
Although
we have concentrations of risk with our billing aggregators (as described in
Note 10 to our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included
elsewhere in this report) these aggregators bill via many underlying LECs,
thereby reducing our risk associated with credit concentrations. However, there
are a few LECs that service a significant number of our customers. To the extent
that LECs implement additional changes to billing practices in the future, our
revenues could be adversely affected.
Our
Internet Advertising Package (“IAP”) is our primary source of
revenue. The majority of our IAP customers pay between $27.50 and
$39.95 per month.

Cost of
services increased in the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2008 as
compared to the third quarter and first nine months of fiscal 2007,
respectively, due primarily to increased usage of LEC billing
channels. We increased our LEC billings as a percent of net revenues
from 66% in the third quarter of fiscal 2007 to 73% in the third quarter of
fiscal 2008. LEC billings typically have higher costs than other
billing channels. Additionally, our cost per account serviced through LEC
billing has increased due to changes in our customer base from internally
generated sales to customers acquired through wholesale
means. Wholesale accounts typically experience higher bad debts,
inquiry fees, and other costs than internally generated accounts. All
of these costs are included in cost of services above.

|
|
·
|

$108,000 stemming primarily from the effects of the LiveDeal acquisition,
which added $2.2 million of depreciable and amortizable long-lived and
intangible assets, and additional capitalized costs for enhancements to

|
|
·

·
|
$431,000
of increased online advertising as we sought to increase customers’
awareness and use of our online marketplace;
and
|
|
·
|
$53,000
of increased customer acquisition costs as we transitioned from
direct response mail campaigns to telemarketing and direct purchases of
wholesale accounts (of which we incurred $872,000 of wholesale acquisition
costs, $318,000 of telemarketing costs and $22,000 in direct response
marketing costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2008, respectively, as
compared to $92,000 of wholesale acquisition costs and $1,067,000 of
direct response marketing costs in the third quarter of fiscal 2007,
respectively); partially offset by
|
|
·
|
a
reduction of approximately $77,000 in branding and other marketing
expenses.
|
Sales and
marketing expenses increased by approximately $1,064,000 for the first nine
months of fiscal 2008 as compared to the first nine months of fiscal 2007 for
similar reasons. Online advertising increased by $1,629,000 in the first nine
months of fiscal 2008 as compared to the first nine months of 2007 as we sought
to increase traffic to our sites. Partially offsetting the increase
in online advertising were decreased expenditures in branding and related
expenses and customer acquisition costs.
Included
in sales and marketing expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30,
2008 is depreciation expense of $18,542 and $55,360, respectively, related to
our subsidiary in the Philippines that was acquired in the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2007.

related to our relocation of our corporate headquarters from Mesa, Arizona to

The
change in our income tax provision in each of the above periods is due primarily
to corresponding decreases in our pre-tax income. However, in the
three and nine months ended June 30, 2008 we incurred additional income tax
expense of $422,000 and $445,000 respectively, due to book-tax differences in
the recognition of restricted stock awards, as compared to $145,000 and $279,000
for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2007. During these
periods, a portion of our restricted stock awards had vested and, due to
declines in our stock price from grant date to vest date, the tax effects of the
vesting of these awards were less than the carrying value of the related
deferred tax assets. Such amounts served to reduce the income tax
benefit in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2008 and increase income tax
expense in the three and nine months ended June 30, 2007,
respectively.

Changes
in net income (loss) are primarily attributable to changes in operating
income and changes in income tax expense. The results from changes in
the use of billing channels, changes in marketing strategies and other operating
changes are discussed in more detail in the narratives included
above.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
Net cash
used in operating activities was $448,130 for the first nine months of fiscal
2008 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $1,240,352 for
the first nine months of fiscal 2007. The decrease in cash generated
from operations is primarily due to a decrease in net income of approximately
$2,629,000 and the payment of $1,700,000 of customer acquisition costs,
partially offset by the payment of over $2,000,000 related to the Attorney’s
General settlement in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 that did not recur in
fiscal 2008 and other changes in working capital.
Our
primary source of cash inflows is net remittances from our billing channels,
including ACH billings and LEC billings. For ACH billings, we
generally receive the net proceeds through our billing service processors within
15 days of submission. For LEC billings, we receive collections on
accounts receivable through the billing service aggregators under contracts to
administer this billing and collection process. The billing service
aggregators generally do not remit funds until they are
collected. Generally, cash is collected and remitted to us (net of
dilution and other fees and expenses) over a 60- to 120-day period subsequent to
the billing dates. Additionally, for each monthly billing cycle, the
billing aggregators and LECs withhold certain amounts, or “holdback reserves,”
to cover potential future dilution and bad debt expense. These
holdback reserves lengthen our cash conversion cycle as they are remitted to us
over a 12- to 18-month period of time. We classify these holdback
reserves as current or long-term receivables on our consolidated balance sheet,
depending on when they are scheduled to be remitted to us. As of June
30, 2008, approximately 79% of our gross accounts receivable are due from three
aggregators.
Our most
significant cash outflows include payments for marketing expenses and general
operating expenses. General operating cash outflows consist of
payroll costs, income taxes, and general and administrative expenses that
typically occur within close proximity of expense recognition.
Net cash
used for investing activities totaled $665,030 during the first nine months of
fiscal 2008 and consisted of $23,243 of additional closing costs related to the
acquisitions of OnCall Subscriber Management Inc. and LiveDeal, Inc., $55,942 of
expenditures for software and intangible assets and $585,845 of purchases of
equipment. Net cash provided by investing activities totaled
$2,612,976 during the first nine months of fiscal 2007 and consisted of
$3,082,053 from the redemption of certificates of deposit and other investments
and $397,876 of cash acquired in connection with the LiveDeal acquisition,
partially offset by $674,580 of expenditures for software and intangible assets
and equipment purchases totaling $192,373.
Net cash
used for financing activities was $502,339 during the first nine months of
fiscal 2008, consisting primarily of treasury stock repurchases as described
below. Financing activities also included $1,438 of preferred stock
dividends paid in the first nine months of fiscal 2008. There were no
financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2007.
We had
working capital of $11,495,100 as of June 30, 2008, compared to $11,632,301 as
of September 30, 2007, with current assets increasing by $451,836 and current
liabilities increasing approximately $589,037 from September 30, 2007 to June
30, 2008. Our cash position decreased to $4,059,034 at June 30, 2008
compared to $5,674,533 at September 30, 2007 due to the effects of our results
of operations and expenditures for software, intangible assets, equipment and
purchases of treasury stock.
On May
25, 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors terminated our existing stock
repurchase plan and replaced it with a new plan authorizing repurchases of up to
$1,000,000 of common stock from time to time on the open market or in privately

QUANTITATIVE
AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET
RISK
|
As of
June 30, 2008, we did not participate in any market risk-sensitive commodity
instruments for which fair value disclosure would be required under Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 107. We believe that we are not subject in
any material way to other forms of market risk, such as foreign currency
exchange risk or foreign customer purchases (of which there were none in the
periods set forth in this report) or commodity price risk.
ITEM 4.

CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
|
Disclosure
controls and procedures are designed with an objective of ensuring that
information required to be disclosed in our periodic reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, such as this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods
specified by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Disclosure
controls are also designed with an objective of ensuring that such information
is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive
officer and chief financial officer, in order to allow timely consideration
regarding required disclosures.
The
evaluation of our disclosure controls by our principal executive officer and
principal financial officer included a review of the controls’ objectives and
design, the operation of the controls, and the effect of the controls on the
information presented in this Quarterly Report. Our management,
including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, does not
expect that disclosure controls can or will prevent or detect all errors and all
fraud, if any. A control system, no matter how well designed and
operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the
objectives of the control system are met. Also, projections of any
evaluation of the disclosure controls and procedures to future periods are
subject to the risk that the disclosure controls and procedures may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance
with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Based on
their review and evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this Form
10-Q, and subject to the inherent limitations as described above, our principal
executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) are effective as of the end of the
period covered by this report. They are not aware of any significant
changes in our disclosure controls or in other factors that could significantly
affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation, including any
corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies and material
weaknesses. During the period covered by this Form 10-Q, there have
not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have
materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our
internal control over financial reporting.
