INTERACTIVE, INC.
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
May 31,
2009
NOTE
1- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America for interim financial information and with the
instructions of Form 10-Q and Article 310 of Regulation S-K. Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete
financial statements. However, except as disclosed herein, there have been no
material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the financial
statements for the year ended February 28, 2009 included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange. The
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with those financial statements included in the Form 10-K. The
preparation requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may
differ from these estimates. 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 three month period
ended May 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be
expected for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2010.
The
accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company
transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
NOTE
2 – SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
CASH AND
CASH EQUIVALENTS
Cash and
cash equivalents include all interest-bearing deposits or investments with
original maturities of three months or less.
ACCOUNTS
RECEIVABLE
The
Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business.
Further, the Company regularly reviews outstanding receivables, and provides
estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the
level of established loss reserves, the Company makes judgments regarding its
customers’ ability to make required payments, economic events and other factors.
As the financial condition of these parties change, circumstances develop or
additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for
doubtful accounts may be required. The Company also performs ongoing credit
evaluations of customers’ financial condition. The Company maintains reserves
for potential credit losses, and such losses traditionally have been within its
expectations
PROPERTY
AND EQUIPMENT
Property
and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is
computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the
related assets. Machinery and equipment are depreciated over 3 to 10 years.
Furniture and fixtures are depreciated over 7 years. Equipment leased under
a capital lease is amortized over the term of that lease The Company performs
ongoing evaluations of the estimated useful lives of the property and equipment
for depreciation purposes. The estimated useful lives are determined and
continually evaluated based on the period over which services are expected to be
rendered by the asset. Maintenance and repairs are expensed as
incurred.
6
IMPAIRMENT
OF LONG LIVED ASSETS
In
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 144,
"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets," The Company
periodically reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not
be fully recoverable. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of
expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the
asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the
asset’s estimated fair value and its book value.
GOODWILL
AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS
In June
2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board approved the issuance of SFAS
142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, which established accounting and
reporting requirements for goodwill and other intangible assets. The standard
requires that all intangible assets acquired that are obtained through
contractual or legal right, or are capable of being separately sold,
transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged must be recognized as an asset apart
from goodwill. Intellectual properties obtained through acquisition, with
indefinite lives, are not amortized, but are subject to an annual assessment for
impairment by applying a fair value based test.
WEBSITE
DEVELOPMENT COSTS
The
Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Emerging
Issues Task Force (EITF) No. 00-2. Accordingly, all costs incurred in
the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website
application and infrastructure development stage are accounted for in accordance
with Statement of Position (SOP) 98-1 which requires the capitalization of
certain costs that meet specific criteria, and costs incurred in the day to day
operation of the website are expensed as incurred.
Management
expects the website to be placed into service during the fiscal year ended
February 28, 2010 at which time it will be subject to straight-line amortization
over a five year period.
REVENUE
RECOGNITION
We
recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with Securities and Exchange
Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, "Revenue Recognition." and related
interpretations, revenue is recognized when the services have been rendered and
collection is reasonably assured.
Travel:
Gross travel tour revenues represent the total retail value of
transactions booked for both agency and merchant transactions recorded at the
time of booking, reflecting the total price due for travel by travelers,
including taxes, fees and other charges, and are generally reduced for
cancellations and refunds. We also generate revenue from paid cruise
ship bookings in the form of commissions. Commission revenue is
recognized at the date the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is
completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and
collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the
relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned
revenue.
The Travel
Magazine: Subscription revenue is unearned revenue and is recognized on a
net proportionate basis over the life of the subscription.
7
Advertising:
We recognize advertising revenues in the period in which the advertisement is
displayed, provided that evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed
or determinable and collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably
assured. If fixed-fee advertising is displayed over a term greater than one
month, revenues are recognized ratably over the period as described below. The
majority of insertion orders have terms that begin and end in a quarterly
reporting period. In the cases where at the end of a quarterly reporting period
the term of an insertion order is not complete, the Company recognizes revenue
for the period by pro-rating the total arrangement fee to revenue and deferred
revenue based on a measure of proportionate performance of its obligation under
the insertion order. The Company measures proportionate performance by the
number of placements delivered and undelivered as of the reporting date. The
Company uses prices stated on its internal rate card for measuring the value of
delivered and undelivered placements. Fees for variable-fee advertising
arrangements are recognized based on the number of impressions displayed or
clicks delivered during the period.
Under
these policies, no revenue is recognized unless persuasive evidence of an
arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and
collection is deemed reasonably assured. The Company considers an insertion
order signed by the client or its agency to be evidence of an
arrangement.
INCOME
TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the liability method in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income
Taxes". Under this method, deferred income tax assets and
liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial
reporting and tax basis of assets and liabilities and are
measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in
effect when
the differences are expected to
reverse.
Had
income taxes been determined based on an effective tax rate of 37.6% consistent
with the method of SFAS 109, the Company's net losses for all periods presented
would not materially change.
EARNINGS
(LOSS) PER SHARE
The
Company computes earnings per share in accordance with the provisions of SFAS
No. 128, Earnings per share, which establishes standards for computing and
presenting basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share
is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted
earnings per share is computed assuming the exercise of stock options under the
treasury stock method and the related income taxes effects, if not
anti-dilutive. For loss periods common share equivalents are excluded from
the calculation, as their effect would be anti-dilutive.
ACCOUNTING
FOR STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Effective
October 1, 2006, we adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) (as amended),
“Share Based Payment,” using the modified prospective method, which results in
the provisions of SFAS No. 123(R) being applied to the consolidated financial
statements on a going forward basis. SFAS No. 123(R) revises SFAS No.
123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes Accounting
Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees.” SFAS No. 123(R) establishes standards for the accounting
for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods
and services at fair value, focusing primarily on accounting for transactions in
which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment
transactions. It also addresses transactions in which an entity
incurs liabilities in exchange for goods and services that are based on the fair
value of the entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance
of those equity instruments.
Stock-based
compensation awarded to non-employees is accounted for under the provisions of
EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other Than
Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services” and
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107.
RECLASSIFICATION
Certain
reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial statements in order
for them to be in conformity with the current year presentation.
RECENT
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT
The FASB
issued SFAS No. 168, The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the
Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, on June 29, 2009 and, in
doing so, authorized the Codification as the sole source for authoritative U.S.
GAAP. SFAS No. 168 will be effective for financial statements
issued for reporting periods that end after September 15, 2009. Once
it's effective, it will supersede all accounting standards in U.S. GAAP, aside
from those issued by the SEC. SFAS No. 168 replaces SFAS No. 162 to
establish a new hierarchy of GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under
the FASB Accounting Standards Codification.
8
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
As
reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had
an accumulated deficit of $7,066,246 and $6,081,214 and a working capital
deficit of $1,839,855 and $1,582,950 at May 31, 2009 and February 28, 2009,
respectively, net losses for the quarters ended May 31, 2009 and May 31, 2008 of
$985,031 and $576,496, respectively and cash used in operations during the three
months ended May 31, 2009 and May 31, 2008 of $491,436 and $851,435,
respectively. While the Company is attempting to increase sales, the
growth has not been significant enough to support the Company’s daily
operations. The Company has continued to raise funds through private
placements with third party. Management may attempt to raise
additional funds by way of a public or private offering. While the
Company believes in the viability of its strategy to improve sales volume and in
its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that
effect. The Company's
limited financial resources have prevented the Company from aggressively
advertising its products and services to
achieve consumer recognition.
The
ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the
Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate increased
revenues. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not
include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to
continue as a going concern. Management believes that the actions
presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate
additional revenues provide the opportunity for the Company.

NOTE
5 – NOTES PAYABLE
The
Company has a note payable with an unrelated third party for $500,000. The note
bears interest at 7% per year and matures in March 2011 payable in quarterly
installments of $25,000. The balance of the note was approximately $309,000 of
which approximately $100,000 was current at May 31, 2009.
In
February 2009, the Company restructured note agreements with three existing
note-holders. The collective balance at the time of the restructuring was
$250,000 plus accrued interest payable of $158,000 which was consolidated into
three new notes payable totaling $408,000. The notes bear interest at 10% per
year and mature on May 31, 2010 at which time the total amount of principle and
accrued interest is due. In connection with the restructure of these notes the
Company issued 150,000 detachable warrants to purchase common stock at an
exercise price of $3.00 per share. The warrant issuance is considered a discount
and is included in other assets at May 31, 2009 and is amortized monthly over
the term of the note. Approximately $36,000 was amortized as interest expense
for the quarter ended May 31, 2009.
9

NOTE
9 – SEGMENT REPORTING
SFAS No.
131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information”,
established standards for reporting information about operating segments in
annual financial statements and required selected information about operating
segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. It also
established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and
geographic areas. Operating segments are defined as components of the
enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is
evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making
group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing
performance.
The
Company has two reportable operating segments: Media and Travel. The
accounting policies of each segment are the same as those described in the
summary of significant accounting policies. Each segment has its own
product manager but the overall operations are managed and evaluated by the
Company’s chief operating decision makers for the purpose of allocating the
Company’s resources. The Company also has a corporate headquarters
function which does not meet the criteria of a reportable operating
segment. Interest expense and corporate expenses are not allocated to
the operating segments.

NOTE
10 – SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
In June
2009, the Company completed the acquisition of certain rights, trademarks and
other intangible property of Resort and Residence TV from its parent company,
Televisual Media Works LLC (“Seller”). In exchange for these assets the Company
paid $175,000. In addition, the Company is required to pay the Seller $500,000
on the first anniversary of the closing and $750,000 plus interest accrued at 8%
annually on the second anniversary of the closing. The Company also issued a
$3,000,000 zero coupon debenture to the Seller payable on June 9th 2012.
The debenture bears interest at 5% annually payable in full upon maturity. The
debenture also entitles the holder to receive 20% of all profits earned from the
specified purchased assets through maturity, with such proceeds going towards
the retirement of the debt. In connection with the agreement, the seller also
receives $3,500,000 of Series B Preferred Stock of the Company. The Preferred
Series B shares mature June 9, 2019. The seller has the right to convert the
Preferred Series B shares into 3.5 million common shares should the network
reach a minimum of 17 million households during the term of the Preferred Series
B. The Company has the right to redeem or force conversion of the shares after
the first year of operation of the network.
In June
2009, the Company received notice from a vendor that it would accept certain
payment terms to settle a past balance due. In response to the settlement the
Company paid the vendor $185,000 and will pay 10 monthly installments of
$18,500.

Next 1
plans to launch a TV Network known as Resort & Residence (R&R) during
the second half of this year. The R&R Network will deploy both
Interactive and Video on Demand capabilities and will allow Next 1 access to
roughly 25 million households in the United States. The R&R TV Network will
be supported by Next Ones digital media assets and expertise in the Travel and
Real Estate arenas. During the first quarter of the year management has focused
its efforts on the realignment of the company’s existing assets in both the
travel and real estate arenas so they might compliment the planned introduction
of the R&R National television network.
In order
to accomplish this goal the company has and will continue to incur a number of
expenditures throughout the balance of the year. New expenditures have included
the purchase of the Resort and Residence Network, upgrades to existing
technology solutions, outsourcing of interactive technology solutions,
elimination of certain staff and the hiring of key consultants and/or full
time management with significant expertise in the set up and operations of an
Interactive Network such as Resort and Residence. Additionally management
has looked to use its limited financial resources to either reconfigure existing
operations so they will integrate with R&R or alternatively discontinue
operations of certain non performing assets. Key examples of this include the
closure of the Brands on Demand offices in Philadelphia with all web sales and
travel solutions being realigned to be integrated into the R&R interactive
sales programs. Additionally the company ceased real estate listings operations
of the Home Preview Channel in Houston and Detroit pending the launch of the
R&R Network and its new format.
In
managements view these expenditures are a key investment to allow the company to
secure a foothold in the new interactive platforms for TV. The acquisition of
the R&R Network as well as the elimination or realignment of non conforming
operations has resulted in both a significant drop in revenue from traditional
operations while at the same time showing a marked increase in operational
costs. These steps are deemed to be essential by management as they should
reposition the company’s travel and real estate programs to capture potentially
very significant new revenue once the R&R Network is launched.
The
Company’s targeted focus of its TV Network in the Travel and Real Estate
industries combined with its On-Demand and Interactive services for both
television and the Internet puts the Company in position to address advertisers’
evolving need to focus on exploiting video opportunities on multiple platforms
with the convergence of internet, television and mobile. The Company has
developed and assembled key assets that allow it to provide media and technology
solutions for consumers in the Home and Travel arenas across multiple media
platforms. These two verticals (Home and Travel) hold significant appeal to
advertisers as they continuously remain in the top five advertising spend
categories in the North American market. Management believes the steps it is
taking now will create a ‘clear differentiation’ in the cable TV space and
provides the company’s shareholders and its clients with a unique and cutting
edge solution to both traditional and non linear platforms to advertise their
products.
Results of
Operations
At May
31, 2009, our cash on hand was $13,376, compared to $18,801 at February 28,
2009. This decrease was primarily attributable to revenue reductions and cash
requirements to fund on-going operations.
At May
31, 2009, our accounts receivable were $105,469, compared to $125,783 at
February 28, 2009. This decrease was due to timing of interactive media sales to
travel suppliers.
At May
31, 2009, our total assets were $8,114,625, compared to $8,228,292 at February
28, 2009. This decrease was due to small reductions in all asset
classes.
At May
31, 2009, our total current liabilities were $2,069,486, compared to $1,871,385
at February 28, 2009. This increase was due primarily to an increase in the
current portion of notes payable.
Three Months Ended May 31,
2009 Compared to Three Months Ended May 31, 2008
Revenues. Our total revenues
were $191,415 for the three months ended May 31, 2009, compared to $780,442 for
the three months ended May 31, 2008. The decrease from 2008 to 2009 was
primarily due to the declining economy, resulting in a general decline in the
travel and leisure industry.
13
Net Loss. We had a net loss
of $985,031 for the three months ended May 31, 2009 compared to a net loss of
$576,496 for the three months ended May 31, 2008. The loss increase from 2008 to
2009 was primarily due to the reduction in revenues while positioning the
Company for a change in its business model from that of providing recreational
travel services to that of a media business with a focus on travel and
residential real estate utilizing the internet, internet radio and cable
television.
Operating expenses. Our
operating expenses include website maintenance fees, general and administrative
expenses, salaries and benefits, advertising and promotion, legal and
professional fees. Our total operating expenses increased from $750,534 for the
three months ended May 31, 2008 to $991,205 for the three months ended May 31,
2009. The increase from 2008 to 2009 was primarily due to the cost required to
position the Company for a change in its business model from that of providing
recreational travel services to that of a media business with a focus on travel
and residential real estate utilizing the internet, internet radio and cable
television.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
At May
31, 2009, we had total current assets of $229,631, consisting primarily of
accounts receivable and security deposits. Current liabilities of $2,069,486
consisting primarily of accounts payable and accrued expenses. The Company has
accumulated a net loss from inception through May 31, 2009 of $7,066,246.
Stockholders’ equity as of May 31, 2008 was $5,366,942. The Company has recorded
gross revenues of $191,415 for the three months ended May 31, 2009.
While the
Company is attempting to increase sales, the growth has not been significant
enough to support the Company’s daily operations and the Company cannot
currently fund its operations for the next 12 months. To date, we have funded
our operations primarily from private equity financings. Until the Company
becomes profitable, if ever, management will attempt to raise additional funds
by way of one or more public or private equity or debt offerings. Several
funding sources have been identified and discussions are underway. While we
believe in the viability of our strategy to improve sales volume and in our
ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect.
The availability of funds depends in large measure on capital markets and over
which we exert no control and liquidity factors. We can provide no assurance
that sufficient financing will be available on desirable terms to fund
investments, acquisitions, stock repurchases or extraordinary
actions. General weakening in the credit markets could increase our
cost of capital.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative
Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market
risk generally represents the risk of loss that may result from the potential
change in value of a financial instrument as a result of fluctuations in
interest rates and market prices. We do not currently have any trading
derivatives nor do we expect to have any in the future. We have established
policies and internal processes related to the management of market risks, which
we use in the normal course of our business operations.
Intangible Asset
Risk. We have a substantial amount of intangible assets. We are required
to perform goodwill impairment tests whenever events or circumstances indicate
that the carrying value may not be recoverable from estimated future cash flows.
As a result of our periodic evaluations, we may determine that the intangible
asset values need to be written down to their fair values, which could result in
material changes that could be adverse to our operating results and financial
position. Although at May 31, 2009, we believed our intangible assets were
recoverable, changes in the economy, the business in which we operate and our
own relative performance could change the assumptions used to evaluate
intangible asset recoverability. We continue to monitor those assumptions and
their effect on the estimated recoverability of our intangible
assets.
Item
4. Controls and Procedures.
a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our
Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer are responsible for
establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting
(as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Our internal control over
financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.
14
Our
Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of as of May 31,
2009. Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal
Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of
the end of the period covered by this report were effective such that the
information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within
the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and
communicated to the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer,
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
b)
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During
the Quarter ended May 31, 2009, there were no changes in our internal controls
over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the
Exchange Act) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to
materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART
II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item
1. Legal
Proceedings.
We are
currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material
adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no
action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court,
public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending
or, to the knowledge of the executive officers of our company or any of our
subsidiaries, threatened against or affecting our company, our common stock, any
of our subsidiaries or of our companies or our subsidiaries’ officers or
directors in their capacities as such, in which an adverse decision could have a
material adverse effect.
Item
1A. Risk Factors.
In
addition to the risk factors enumerated in our Form 10-K filed on June 16, 2009,
we are subject to various additional risks that could have a negative effect on
the Company and its financial condition. You should understand that these risks
could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking
statements contained in this report and in other Company communications. Because
there is no way to determine in advance whether, or to what extent, any present
uncertainty will ultimately impact our business, you should give equal weight to
each of the following:
The
current worldwide recession and declines or disruptions in the travel industry
could adversely affect our business or financial performance.
Our
business and financial performance is affected by the health of the worldwide
travel industry. Travel expenditures are sensitive to business and personal
discretionary spending levels and tend to decline or grow more slowly during
economic downturns, including downturns in any of our major markets. Events or
weaknesses specific to the air travel industry that could negatively affect our
business include continued fare increases, travel-related strikes or labor
unrest, consolidations, bankruptcies or liquidations and further fuel price
escalation. Additionally, our business is sensitive to safety concerns, and thus
our business has in the past and may in the future decline after incidents of
actual or threatened terrorism, during periods of political instability or
geopolitical conflict in which travelers become concerned about safety issues,
as a result of natural disasters such as hurricanes or earthquakes or when
travel might involve health-related risks, such as avian flu. Such concerns
could result in a protracted decrease in demand for our travel services. This
decrease in demand, depending on its scope and duration, together with any
future issues affecting travel safety, could significantly and adversely affect
our business and financial performance over the short and long-term. In
addition, the disruption of the existing travel plans of a significant number of
travelers upon the occurrence of certain events, such as actual or threatened
terrorist activity or war, could result in the incurrence of significant
additional costs and constrained liquidity if we provide relief to affected
travelers by not charging cancellation fees and/or by refunding the price of
airline tickets, hotel reservations and other travel products and
services.
We
operate in an increasingly competitive global environment which may affect our
competitive advantage.
The
market for the services we offer is increasingly and intensely competitive. We
compete with both established and emerging online and traditional sellers of
travel services with respect to each of the services we offer. Some of our
competitors, particularly travel suppliers such as airlines and hotels, may
offer products and services on more favorable terms, including lower prices, no
fees or unique access to proprietary loyalty programs, such as points and miles.
Many of these competitors, such as airlines, hotel and rental car companies,
have been steadily focusing on increasing online demand on their own websites in
lieu of third-party distributors such as our Company. For instance, some low
cost airlines, which are having increasing success in the marketplace,
distribute their online inventory exclusively through their own websites.
Suppliers who sell on their own websites typically do not charge a processing
fee, and, in some instances, offer advantages such as increased or exclusive
product availability and their own bonus miles or loyalty points, which could
make their offerings more attractive to consumers than offerings like ours. In
addition, we face increasing competition from other travel agencies, which in
some cases may have favorable offerings for both travelers and suppliers,
including pricing, connectivity and supply breadth. We also compete with other
travel agencies for both travelers and the acquisition and retention of supply.
The introduction of new technologies and the expansion of existing technologies,
such as Metasearch and other search engine technologies, may increase
competitive pressures or lead to changes in our business model. Increased
competition has resulted in and may continue to result in reduced margins, as
well as loss of travelers, transactions and brand recognition. We cannot assure
you that we will be able to compete successfully against current, emerging and
future competitors or provide differentiated products and services to our
traveler base.
16
Evolving
industry standards and rapid technological changes may render our technology
obsolete.
Our
success will depend in part upon our continued ability to enhance our existing
products and services, to introduce new products and services quickly and cost
effectively, meet evolving customer needs, achieve market acceptance for new
product and service offerings, and to respond to emerging industry standards and
other technological changes. There can be no assurance that we will be able to
respond effectively to technological changes or new industry standards.
Moreover, there can be no assurance that our competitors will not develop
competitive products, or that any such competitive products will not have an
adverse effect upon our operating results.
Moreover,
we intend to continue to implement "best practices" and other established
process improvements in its operations going forward. There can be no assurance
that we will be successful in refining, enhancing and developing our operating
strategies and systems going forward, that the costs associated with refining,
enhancing and developing such strategies and systems will not increase
significantly in future periods or that our existing software and technology
will not become obsolete as a result of ongoing technological developments in
the marketplace.
Integration
of certain acquisitions could result in operating and financial
difficulties.
We plan
on entering into new web 2.0 business in the future. Our growth may depend, in
part, on acquisitions. To the extent that we grow through acquisitions, we will
face the operational and financial risks that commonly accompany that strategy.
We would also face operational risks, such as failing to assimilate the
operations and personnel of the acquired businesses, disrupting their ongoing
businesses, increased complexity of our business, impairing management resources
and their relationships with employees and travelers as a result of changes in
their ownership and management. Further, the evaluation and negotiation of
potential acquisitions, as well as the integration of an acquired business, may
divert management time and other resources. Some acquisitions may not be
successful and their performance may result in the impairment of their carrying
value.
Certain
financial and operational risks related to acquisitions that may have a material
impact on our business are:
•
|
Use
of cash resources and incurrence of debt and contingent liabilities in
funding acquisitions;
|
•
|
Amortization
expenses related to acquired intangible assets and other adverse
accounting consequences;
|
•
|
Costs
incurred in identifying and performing due diligence on potential
acquisition targets that may or may not be
successful;
|
•
|
Difficulties
and expenses in assimilating the operations, products, technology,
information systems or personnel of the acquired
company;
|
•
|
Impairment
of relationships with employees, suppliers and affiliates of our business
and the acquired business;
|
•
|
The
assumption of known and unknown debt and liabilities of the acquired
company;
|
•
|
Failure
to generate adequate returns on our acquisitions and
investments;
|
•
|
Entrance
into markets in which we have no direct prior
experience; and
|
•
|
Impairment
of goodwill or other intangible assets arising from our
acquisitions.
