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, 2010 included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10K and 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1) filed subsequent 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 and 10-K/A (Amendment No. 1) filed subsequent. 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 and nine month
period ended November 30, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results
that may be expected for the fiscal year ending February 28, 2011.
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 - SUMMARY OF BUSINESS OPERATIONS AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
Nature
of Operations and Business Organization
Next 1
Interactive, Inc. (“Next 1” or the “Company”), an interactive media company,
focuses on video and media advertising over Internet, Mobile and Television
platforms. Historically, the Company operated through two divisions, Media and
Travel. A third (Real Estate) division is expected to launch during the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2011.
The Media
division targets real estate and travel. The Company broadcasts a 24/7 digital
television network called “R&R TV” via satellite and cable carriers. In
addition, the Company delivers other digital targeted content via Broadband,
Web, Print and Mobile. The Company’s other media platforms include a real estate
Video-On-Demand (“VOD”) channel called Home TV on Demand (“Home TV”) , a web
radio network called “R&R Radio” and multiple websites including
“RRTV.com” which features live streaming of its television network over the
web. Revenues from the Media division include advertising fees from
advertisements and programming aired on the R&R TV network and production
services.
The
Travel division operates NextTrip.com, a travel site that includes
user-generated content, social networking, a directory of travel affiliate
links, and travel business video showcases. In addition, this division operates
as a luxury tour operator offering escorted and independent tours worldwide to
upscale travelers and a cruise consortium offering marketing and technology
solutions for independent cruise agencies. Revenues from the Travel division
include the sale of escorted and independent tours.
The
Company was initially incorporated as Extraordinary Vacations Group, Inc., in
the state of Delaware on June 24, 2002, and focused on the travel industry
solely through the Internet.
On
October 9, 2008, the Company acquired the majority of the outstanding shares of
Maximus Exploration Corporation, a reporting shell company, pursuant to a share
exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange”). The Share Exchange provided for the
exchange rate of 1 share of Maximus common stock for 60 shares Extraordinary
Vacations USA common stock. The financial statements of Next 1, Interactive,
Inc. reflects the retroactive effect of the Share Exchange as if it had occurred
at the beginning of the reporting period. All loss per share amounts are
reflected based on Next 1 shares outstanding, basic and dilutive.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated audited 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.

INTERACTIVE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
November

Use
of Estimates
The
Company’s significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts and
accrued expenses. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While the Company
believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the
financial statements taken as a whole, the actual amounts of such estimates,
when known, will vary from these estimates. If actual results significantly
differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and
results of operations could be materially impacted.
Accounts
Receivable
The
Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business.
Further, the Company regularly reviews outstanding receivables, and provides for
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.
Impairment
of Long-Lived Assets
In
accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 360-10, “Property, Plant and
Equipment”, 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.
Website
Development Costs
The
Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting
Standards Codification 350-50 “Website Development
Costs”. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are
expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and
infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and
costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as
incurred.
Goodwill
and Intangible Assets
The
Company applies Accounting Standards Codification 350-20 “Goodwill and Other”,
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.
Intellectual properties that have finite useful lives are amortized over their
useful lives.
Earnings
per Share
Earnings
per share are reported pursuant to the provisions of FASB ASC 210. Accordingly,
basic earnings per share reflects the weighted average number of shares
outstanding during the year, and diluted shares adjusts that figure by the
additional hypothetical shares that would be outstanding if all exercisable
outstanding common stock equivalents with an exercise price below the current
market value of the underlying stock were exercised. Common stock equivalents
consist of stock options and warrants. Basic earnings per share are computed by
dividing net earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted average
number of shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share are
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 the effect would
be anti-dilutive.

INTERACTIVE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Revenue
Recognition
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.
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.
Barter
Transactions
Barter
transactions represent the exchange of advertising or programming for
advertising, merchandise or services. Barter transactions which exchange
advertising for advertising are accounted for in accordance with EITF Issue
No. 99-17 “Accounting for
Advertising Barter Transactions” (ASC Topic 605-20-25), which are
recorded at the fair value of the advertising provided based on the Company’s
own historical practice of receiving cash for similar advertising from buyers
unrelated to the counterparty in the barter transactions.
Barter
transactions which exchange advertising or programming for merchandise or
services are recorded at the monetary value of the revenue expected to be
realized from the ultimate disposition of merchandise or services. Expenses
incurred in broadcasting barter provided are recorded when the program,
merchandise or service is utilized.
Barter
revenue of approximately $323,000 and $0 has been recognized for the nine months
ended November 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and barter expenses of
approximately $340,000 and $0 has been recognized for the nine months ended
November 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
Cost
of Revenues
Cost of
revenues includes costs directly attributable to services sold and delivered.
These costs include such items as broadcast carriage fees, costs to produce
television content, sales commission to business partners, hotel and airfare,
cruises and membership fees.
Advertising
Expense
Advertising
costs are charged to expense as incurred and are included in selling and
promotions expense in the accompanying financial statements. Advertising expense
for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009 was approximately
$285,000 and $71,000, respectively. Expenses incurred in barter advertising
received are recorded when the advertising is utilized.
Share-Based
Compensation
The
Company computes share-based payments in accordance with Accounting Standards
Codification 718-10 “Compensation” (ASC 718-10). ASC 718-10 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 employees 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 an entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the
issuance of those equity instruments.
In March
2005 the SEC issued SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB 107”) which provides
guidance regarding the interaction of ASC 718-10 and certain SEC rules and
regulations. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption
of ASC 718-10.

Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for
Income Taxes, as clarified by ASC 740-10, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income
Taxes. Under this method, deferred income taxes are determined based on
the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement
and tax basis of assets and liabilities given the provisions of enacted tax
laws. Deferred income tax provisions and benefits are based on changes to the
assets or liabilities from year to year. In providing for deferred taxes, the
Company considers tax regulations of the jurisdictions in which the Company
operates, estimates of future taxable income, and available tax planning
strategies. If tax regulations, operating results or the ability to implement
tax-planning strategies vary, adjustments to the carrying value of deferred tax
assets and liabilities may be required. Valuation allowances are recorded
related to deferred tax assets based on the “more likely than not” criteria of
ASC 740.
ASC
740-10 requires that the Company recognize the financial statement benefit of a
tax position only after determining that the relevant tax authority would more
likely than not sustain the position following an audit. For tax positions
meeting the “more-likely-than-not” threshold, the amount recognized in the
financial statements is the largest benefit that has a greater than
50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement with the
relevant tax authority.
Fair
Value of Financial Instruments
The
Company adopted ASC topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (ASC
820), formerly SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements,” effective
January 1, 2009. ASC 820 defines “fair value” as the price that would be
received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the
principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There was no
impact relating to the adoption of ASC 820 to the Company’s financial
statements.
ASC 820
also describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair
value:
|
•
|
Level 1: Observable inputs that
reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities
traded in active markets.
|
|
•
|
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted
prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or
liability, either directly or
indirectly.
|
|
•
|
Level 3: Inputs that are
generally unobservable. These inputs may be used with internally developed
methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair
value.
|
Financial
instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses,
accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities. The
carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance
sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature.
The fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company
could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts
approximate fair value. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not
exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial
instruments.
Recent
Accounting Pronouncements
In August
2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-22 "Accounting for Various Topics-Technical
Corrections to SEC paragraphs (SEC Update)". ASU 2010-22 amends various SEC
paragraphs based on external comments received and the issuance of SAB 112,
which amends or rescinds portions of certain SAB topics. The Company expects the
adoption of ASU 2010-22 will not have a material impact on the Company's results
of operations or financial statements.
In August
2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-21 "Accounting for Technical Amendments to Various
SEC Rules and Schedules. Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Release No.
33-9026: Technical Amendments to Rules, Forms, Schedules and Codification of
Financial Reporting Policies". ASU 2010-21 amends various SEC paragraphs
pursuant to the issuance of Release No. 33-9026: Technical Amendments to Rules,
Forms, Schedules and Codification of Financial Reporting Policies. The Company
expects the adoption of ASU 2010-21 will not have a material impact on the
Company's results of operations or financial statements.
In July
2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of
Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses,” (ASU 2010-20) which
amends ASC 310, “Receivables,” to require further disaggregated disclosures that
improve financial statement users’ understanding of (1) the nature of an
entity’s credit risk associated with its financing receivables and (2) the
entity’s assessment of that risk in estimating its allowance for credit losses
as well as changes in the allowance and the reasons for those changes. The new
and amended disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for
interim and annual reporting periods ending on or after December 15, 2010.
The adoption of ASU 2010-20 will only impact disclosures and is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements.

Accounting Pronouncements (continued)
In April
2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010–18, “Receivables (Topic 310) Effect of a Loan
Modification When the Loan is Part of a Pool That is Accounted for as a Single
Asset”, a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force and is effective for
modifications of loans accounted for within pools under Subtopic 310-30
occurring in the first interim or annual period ending on or after July 15,
2010. This ASU was issued to provide guidance on accounting for acquired loans
that have evidence of credit deterioration upon acquisition. The issuance
determines whether a loan that is part of a pool of loans accounted for as a
single asset should be removed from that pool upon a modification that would
constitute a troubled debt restructuring. The objective of the amendments in
this Update is to address the diversity in practice regarding such
modifications. Any entity that acquires loans subject to Subtopic 310-30, that
accounts for some or all of those loans within pools, and that subsequently
modifies one or more of those loans after acquisition is affected by this ASU.
The adoption of ASU 2010-20 will only impact disclosures and is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial
statements
In April
2010, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Updates (“ASUs”) 2010-17, Revenue
Recognition - Milestone Method (Topic 605): Milestone Method of Revenue
Recognition. This ASU codifies the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 08-9,
“Milestone Method of Revenue Recognition.” The amendments to the Codification
provide guidance on defining a milestone and determining when it may be
appropriate to apply the milestone method of revenue recognition for research or
development transactions. Consideration that is contingent on achievement of a
milestone in its entirety may be recognized as revenue in the period in which
the milestone is achieved only if the milestone is judged to meet certain
criteria to be considered substantive. Milestones should be considered
substantive in their entirety and may not be bifurcated. An arrangement may
contain both substantive and non-substantive milestones, and each milestone
should be evaluated individually to determine if it is substantive. ASU 2010-17
is effective on a prospective basis for milestones achieved in fiscal years, and
interim periods within those years, beginning on or after June 15, 2010. Early
adoption is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2010-20 will only impact disclosures
and is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated
financial statements.
NOTE 3 – GOING CONCERN
As
reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company had
net loss for the nine months ended November 30, 2010, of $10,181,595, which
includes a gain from a legal settlement in the amount of $4,903,427. The
Company also had an accumulated deficit of $40,228,304 and a working capital
deficit of $9,895,444 at November 30, 2010. In addition, the Company reported
cash used in operations during the nine months ended November 30, 2010, of
$8,087,809. While the Company is attempting to increase sales, the growth has
yet to achieve significant levels to fully support its daily
operations.
Management’s
plans with regard to this going concern are as follows: The Company
will continue to raise funds through private placements with third parties by
way of a public or private offering. In addition, the Board of Directors has
agreed to make available, to the
extent possible, the necessary capital required to allow management to
aggressively expand the R&R TV Linear Network, as well as its planned
Interactive and Video on Demand solutions. Management and Board members are
working aggressively to increase the viewership of our network by promoting it
across other mediums as well as other networks which will increase value to
advertisers and result in higher advertising rates and revenues.
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 raise funds, further
implement its business plan and generate greater revenues. The 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 to continue as a going concern.

9 – SEGMENT REPORTING
Accounting
Standards Codification 280-16 “Segment Reporting”, 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.
The

nine months ended November 30, 2010 and 2009 respectively:

10 – LEGAL/ARBITRATION SETTLEMENT
On August
17, 2009, Next 1 Interactive, Inc. (the “Company”) and Televisual Media Works,
LLC (“Televisual Media”) closed on an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”)
whereby the Company purchased certain rights, trademarks and other intangible
property of Resort and Residence TV (“RRTV”), a wholly owned subsidiary of
Televisual Media. The primary purpose of the APA was the acquisition of rights
to a broadcast service agreement with a satellite television carrier. However,
in conjunction with the acquisition of the assets, the Agreement stipulated that
the sellers were to provide certain additional services to the Company as
defined in an Advertising Sales Representation Agreement, an Affiliate Sales
Representative Agreement and an Interactive Service Agreement among other
agreements.
On May
28, 2010, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Agreement”) by
and among the Company and Televisual Media, a Colorado limited liability
company, TV Ad Works, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, TV Net Works, a
Colorado limited liability company, TV iWorks, a Colorado limited liability and
Mr. Gary Turner and Mrs. Staci Turner, individuals residing in the State of
Colorado (individually and collectively “TVMW,” and together with the Company,
the “Parties”), in order to resolve certain disputed claims regarding the
service agreements referred to above. The final settlement agreement stipulates
that the settlement shall not be construed as an admission or denial of
liability by any Party hereto.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, (i) all obligations (including remaining debt in
the amount of $6,631,659 and accrued interest) under the APA and Commercial
Agreements are foreclosed and have no further force or effect; (ii) the Company
shall retain all property transferred pursuant to the APA; (iii) TVMW shall
retain all compensation paid for by the Company; (iv) the Company shall issue
TVMW 1,750,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.00001 per share; (v) the
Company shall pay to Televisual Media one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000);
and (vi) the Company shall make twenty monthly payment installments of fifty
thousand dollars ($50,000) each, totaling one million dollars ($1,000,000),
payable to Televisual Media Works, LLC on the first day of each month,
commencing on August 1, 2010. The first eight monthly payment installments must
be in cash by wire transfer with the remaining twelve payments, at the election
of the Company, paid in either cash or common stock.

The
common stock was valued at $0.53 per share which was the market value of the
stock on the date the shares were issued, June 15, 2010, resulting in total
consideration of $927,500. The Company issued 1,750,000 shares on June 15, 2010.
Per the agreement, $57,500 of the $100,000 cash payment was applied to a payable
due to Televisual Media and the remainder was applied to satisfy the terms of
the settlement agreement.
As a
result of this agreement, the Company performed an evaluation under FASB ASC
350-30-35 “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other: Subsequent Measurement, General”.
Management’s conclusion upon completion of the evaluation was that there was no
impairment of the intangible assets acquired in the original Asset Purchase

Overview
Next 1
Interactive, Inc. (the “Company”) is a media based company focusing on two
segments; travel and real estate. This has been made possible through
acquisitions, the most notable of which is the acquisition of Resort and
Residence TV (“R&R” or the “Network”) in August of 2009. The R&R network
was launched on November 6, 2009, into roughly 21 million households with
DirecTV and Comcast. The Company has plans to expand R&R’s 24/7 full time
lifestyle programming network, as well as the introduction of interactive and
transactional capabilities. Additionally, the Network has plans to include two
distinct video on demand “channels” called R&R Vacation Travel and R&R
Homes TV on Demand supported by websites and call centers. This new model will
allow consumers their choice of platforms (TV, web, and mobile) to view and
transact in both the travel and real estate arenas. The Company believes this
new model will provide multiple sources of revenue, mainly from production,
interactive applications, advertising, referral/lead generation fees and
commissions due to the Company’s existing licenses and expertise in travel and
real estate arenas. During our last difficult transition year, the Company saw a
dramatic drop in revenues accompanied by significant increases in expenditures
to put the model in place. Management believes the Company has reached
significant milestones including the launch of the network and that the process
is well underway to allow the Company to achieve profitability by the fourth
quarter of this year.
The
R&R Network plans to expand its number of households and deploy both
Interactive and Video on Demand capabilities over the next three quarters
allowing Next 1 access to roughly 60 million households in the United States.
The R&R Network will be supported by Next One’s digital media relationships
and platforms and expertise in the Travel and Real Estate arenas.
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:
(1) the purchase of the Resort and Residence Network, modification of the
business model to work in conjunction with television broadcasting, (2)
programming, and (3) outsourcing of key interactive technology solutions to
complement our in-house expertise in maximizing the efficiency of the operation.
Additionally, management has looked to use its limited financial resources to
reconfigure existing operations so they will integrate with
R&R.
In
management’s 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 showed 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
provide 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.

Our total revenues increased 13% to $573,126 for the three months ended November
30, 2010, compared to $509,249 for the three months ended November 30, 2009, an
increase of $63,877. The increase in revenue is a result of the Company
executing its business strategy, which includes increased advertising revenues
from its R&R TV network as well as increased travel revenue from the
Company’s renewed focus on providing recreational travel services.
Revenues
from the travel segment decreased 22% to $198,024 for the three months ended
November 30, 2010, compared to $253,297 for the three months ended November 30,
2009, a decrease of $55,273. Travel revenue is generated from our luxury tour
operation, which provides escorted and independent tours worldwide to upscale
travelers. The Company has redirected some of its limited resources towards
improving the performance of this business segment.
Revenues
from advertising increased 47% to $375,102 for the three months ended November
30, 2010, compared to $255,952 for the three months ended November 30, 2009, an
increase of $119,150. Advertising revenue in the current quarter was generated
from the sale of advertising time on R&R TV including advertisements shown
during a program (also known as short-form advertising) and infomercials in
which the advertisement is the program itself (also known as long-form
advertising). The ability to sell time for commercial announcements and the
rates received are primarily dependent on the size and nature of the audience
that the network can deliver to the advertiser as well as overall advertiser
demand for time on our network. Advertising revenues in the prior year quarter
was generated from showcase and print advertising revenues.
Cost of
revenues. Cost
of revenues increased 189% to $2,588,210 for the three months ended November 30,
2010, compared to $896,637 for the same year ago period, an increase of
$1,691,573. The significant increase is due to the cost of operating a
television network, substantially all of which consists of broadcast carriage
fees and production costs which did not exist during the prior fiscal
period.
Operating
expenses. Our
operating expenses include website maintenance fees, general and administrative
expenses, salaries and benefits, advertising and promotion, legal and
professional fees, consulting and finance fees incurred in raising capital and
amortization of intangibles. Our total operating expenses increased 64% from
$2,022,702 for the three months ended November 30, 2009, to $3,313,608 for the
three months ended November 30, 2010, an increase of $1,290,906. The increase
was due primarily to an increase in amortization of deferred finance fees of
$164,748, amortization of intangibles of $55,744, salaries and benefits of
$54,121, legal and professional fees of $27,953, and consulting
fees incurred in raising capital of $1,169,040 and various other
operating expenses of $67,301.
Interest
expense.
Interest expense decreased 10% to $197,304 for the three months ended November
30, 2010, compared to $179,882 for the same year ago period, an increase of
$17,422 due primarily to an increase of related-party debt.
Net
income/loss. We
had net loss of $5,526,048 for the three months ended November 30, 2010,
compared to a net loss $2,590,058 for the same year ago period, an increase in
net loss of $2,935,990. The increase from 2009 to 2010 was primarily due to an
increase in operating losses of $2,918,602, interest expense of $17,422, and an
increase in other expenses of $34,809.

Revenues.
Our total revenues increased 87% to $1,926,373 for the nine months
ended November 30, 2010, compared to $1,029,050 for the nine months
ended November 30, 2009, an increase of $897,323. The increase in revenue
is a result of the Company executing its business strategy, which includes
increased advertising revenues from its R&R TV network as well as increased
travel revenue from the Company’s renewed focus on providing recreational travel
services.
Revenues
from the travel segment increased 23% to $839,730 for the nine months ended
November 30, 2010, compared to $682,192 for the nine months ended November 30,
2009, an increase of $157,538. Travel revenue is generated from our luxury tour
operation, which provides escorted and independent tours worldwide to upscale
travelers. The Company has redirected some of its limited resources towards
improving the performance of this business segment.
Revenues
from advertising increased 213% to $1,086,643 for the nine months ended November
30, 2010, compared to $346,858 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009, an
increase of $739,785. Advertising revenue in the current quarter was generated
from the sale of advertising time on R&R TV including advertisements shown
during a program (also known as short-form advertising) and infomercials in
which the advertisement is the program itself (also known as long-form
advertising). The ability to sell time for commercial announcements and the

that the network can deliver to the advertiser as well as overall advertiser
demand for time on our network. Advertising revenues in the prior year quarter
was generated from showcase and print advertising revenues.
Cost of
revenues. Cost of revenues
increased 404% to $7,540,374 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010,
compared to $1,494,967 for the same year ago period, an increase of $6,045,407.
The significant increase is due to the cost of operating a television network,
substantially all of which consists of broadcast carriage fees and production
costs which did not exist during the prior fiscal period.
21
Operating
expenses. Our
operating expenses include website maintenance fees, general and administrative
expenses, salaries and benefits, advertising and promotion, legal and
professional fees, consulting and finance fees incurred in raising capital and
amortization of intangibles. Our total operating expenses increased 71% from
$9,122,897 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009, to $5,328,724 the
nine months ended November 30, 2010, an increase of $3,794,173. The increase was
due primarily to an increase in amortization of deferred finance fees of
$1,592,703, amortization of intangibles of $642,913, legal and professional fees
of $138,914, consulting fees incurred in raising capital of $1,076,168,
other operating expenses of $388,734 and offset by reductions in payroll and
benefits of $45,259.
Gain on legal
settlement. During the period ended November 30, 2010, the Company
recognized a gain from a legal settlement with a creditor in the amount of
$4,903,427 as follows:
On August
17, 2009, Next 1 and Televisual Media Works, LLC (“Televisual Media”) closed on
an asset purchase agreement (the “APA”), whereby the Company purchased certain
rights, trademarks and other intangible property of Resort and Residence TV
(“RRTV”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Televisual Media.
On May
28, 2010, the Company entered into a settlement agreement (the “Agreement”) by
and among the Company and Televisual Media, a Colorado limited liability
company, TV Ad Works, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, TV Net Works, a
Colorado limited liability company, TV iWorks, a Colorado limited liability and
Mr. Gary Turner and Mrs. Staci Turner, individuals residing in the State of
Colorado (individually and collectively “TVMW,” and together with the Company,
the “Parties”), in order to resolve certain disputed claims including, but not
limited to, the Advertising Sales Representation Agreement, the Affiliate Sales
Representative Agreement and the Interactive Service Agreement.
Pursuant
to the terms of the Agreement, (i) all obligations (including remaining debt in
the amount of $6,631,659 and accrued interest) under the APA and Commercial
Agreements are foreclosed and have no further force or effect; (ii) the Company
shall retain all property transferred pursuant to the APA; (iii) TVMW shall
retain all compensation paid for by the Company; (iv) the Company shall issue
TVMW 1,750,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.00001 per share; (v) the
Company shall pay to Televisual Media one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000);
and (vi) the Company shall make twenty monthly payment installments of fifty
thousand dollars ($50,000) each, totaling one million dollars ($1,000,000),
payable to Televisual Media Works, LLC on the first day of each month,
commencing on August 1, 2010. The first eight monthly payment installments must
be in cash by wire transfer with the remaining twelve payments, at the election
of the Company, paid in either cash or common stock. For the nine months ending
November 30, 2010, the Company made approximately $139,000 in principal
payments.
Interest
expense.
Interest expense decreased 5% to $353,944 for the nine months ended November 30,
2010, compared to $371,297 for the same year ago period, a decrease of $17,353
due primarily to a reduction in related-party debt.
Net
income/loss. We
had net loss of $10,181,595 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010,
compared to a net loss $6,175,148 for the same year ago period, an increase in
net loss of $4,006,447. The increase from 2009 to 2010 was primarily due to the
gain on legal settlement in the amount of $4,903,427 as previously discussed,
offset by increases in operating losses of $8,942,257, a reduction in interest
expense of $17,353 and reductions in other expenses of $15,030.
Assets. Our total assets were
$12,138,003 at November 30, 2010, compared to $15,405,745 at February 28, 2010.
The decrease of $3,267,742 was primarily due to the amortization of intangible
assets and deferred finance fees.
Liabilities.
Our total liabilities were $11,327,171 at November 30, 2010, compared to
$11,597,412 at February 28, 2010, a decrease of $270,241 due to net debt
reductions in settlement of a legal dispute previously discussed in the amount
of $5,674,109 consisting of debt forgiven in the amount $6,631,659 and new debt
incurred in the amount of $957,550, net of imputed interest. In addition,
related-party notes payable increased $5,055,702 due to additional loans from
director/shareholders. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased by
$324,011, primarily due from barter advertising received but not yet provided in
the form of advertising spots. The remaining increase in liabilities of $479,096
was due to an increase in contingent liabilities of $462,489 and capital lease
incurred of $16,607.
Total
Stockholders’ Equity. Our stockholders’ equity was $810,832 at November
30, 2010, compared to $3,808,333 at February 28, 2010. The reduction was due to
net loss incurred for the nine months ended November 30, 2010, offset by
additions to paid in capital.
Liquidity
and Capital Resources; Going Concern
At
November 30, 2010, the Company had $67,464 of cash on-hand, a decrease of
$144,441 from $211,905 at the start of fiscal 2011. The decrease in cash
was due primarily to cash used for daily operations.
Net cash
used in operations was $8,087,809 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010,
an increase of $5,252,109 from $2,835,700 used in the same year ago period.
This increase was due to costs, primarily carriage fees, incurred to launch and
operate a television network.
22
Net cash
used in investing activities increased $53,114 to $303,114 for the nine months
ended November 30, 2010, compared to $250,000 during the same year ago
period consisting of web site development costs of $203,554 and purchase of
treasury stock in the amount of $99,560.
During
the nine months ended November 30, 2010, net cash provided by financing
activities increased $5,179,584 to $8,246,482 from $3,066,898 during the same
year ago period. This increase was due to an increase in net
proceeds from related party loans of $5,639,529, an increase in the net proceeds
from the sale of equity instruments of $3,116,000 and other net reductions of
$111,364.
The
R&R network was launched on November 6, 2009, with Comcast and DIRECTV
bringing it into roughly 21 million households. In March 2010, the Company
announced a further expansion to 28 million homes with Capital Broadcasting
Corporation. In June 2010, the Company announced still further expansion to 44
million homes with Edison Broadcasting and is planning to reach 60 million
households by the end of fiscal 2011. While we expect this market penetration to
generate a substantial increase in operating, marketing, promotion and other
expenses, we also expect that our revenues will ultimately increase sufficiently
enough to cover these increases. Although carriage fees, our largest operating
cost, begin immediately, brand recognition, which will result in greater
revenues, takes time to develop. Accordingly, we believe that our results of
operations in fiscal 2011 will not begin to improve until the fourth
quarter.
The
growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of
additional working capital. We currently have limited financial resources and
based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in
order to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have adequate cash to
meet our short or long term objectives. In the event additional capital is
raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.
Since our
inception in June 2002, we have been focused on the travel industry solely
through the internet. We have recently changed our business model from a company
that generates nearly all revenues from its travel divisions to a media company
focusing on travel and real estate by utilizing multiple media platforms
including the internet, radio and television. As a company that has recently
changed our business model and emerged from the development phase with a limited
operating history, we are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the
development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive
industry. We cannot assure you that the business will continue as a going
concern or ever achieve profitability. Due to the absence of an operating
history under the new business model and the emerging nature of the markets in
which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until such time as we can
successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated
revenue streams.
Since our
inception, we have financed our operations through numerous debt and equity
issuances.
The
Company will need to raise substantial additional capital to support the
on-going operation and increased market penetration of R&RTV including the
development of national sales representation for national and global advertising
and sponsorships, increases in operating costs resulting from additional staff
and office space until such time as we generate revenues sufficient to support
the business. We believe that in the aggregate, we will need approximately $10
million to $15 million to support and expand the network reach, repay debt
obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and satisfy
payment obligations under carriage/distribution agreements, office space and
systems required to manage the business, and cover other operating costs until
our planned revenue streams from media advertising, sponsorships, e-commerce,
travel and real estate are fully-implemented and begin to offset our operating
costs. There can be no assurances that the Company will be successful in raising
the required capital to complete this portion of its business plan.
To date,
we have funded our operations with the proceeds from private equity financings.
The Company issued these shares without registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, afforded the Company under Section 4(2) promulgated there
under due to the fact that the issuance did not involve a public offering of
securities. The shares were sold solely to “accredited investors” as that term
is defined in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and pursuant to the
exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act under
Section 4(2) and Regulation D there under.
Currently,
revenues provide a small percentage of the Company’s cash requirements. The
remaining cash need is derived from raising additional capital. The current
monthly cash burn rate is approximately $1.2 million. With the successful launch
of the television network in November, 2009, virtually all of the associated
expenses began immediately. However, it will take several months to drive
viewers to the network, which will subsequently improve visibility and increase
our advertising client base and advertising and sponsorship rates. We expect the
monthly cash burn rate will gradually increase to approximately $1.4
million.
Our
multi-platform media revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain
that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model
is unproven and there can be no assurance that we can achieve profitable
operations. Our ability to generate revenues depends, among other things, on our
ability to operate our television network and create enough viewership to
provide advertisers, sponsors, travelers and home buyers value. Accordingly, we
cannot assure you that our business model will be successful or that we can
sustain revenue growth, or achieve or sustain profitability.

Item
3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market
risk
This
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 asset
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 November 30, 2010, 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 Accounting 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.
Our
Principal Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer evaluated the
effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of November 30, 2010.
Based on that evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal
Accounting Officer have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures
were not effective at the reasonable assurance level due to the lack of an
independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert which represents
a material weakness as reported in the February 28, 2010, Annual Report on Form
10-K. Due to liquidity issues, we have not been able to immediately take any
action to remediate this material weakness. However, when conditions allow, we
will expand our board of directors and establish an independent audit committee
consisting of a minimum of three individuals with industry experience including
a qualified financial expert. Notwithstanding the assessment that our ICFR was
not effective and that there was a material weakness as identified herein, we
believe that our consolidated financial statements contained herein fairly
present our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
periods covered thereby in all material respects.
b)
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
During the quarter ended November 30, 2010, there have been no changes in
our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of
the 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.
There is
currently a case pending whereby the Company’s Chief Executive Officer
(“defendant”) is being sued for allegedly breaching a contract which he signed
in his role as Chief Executive Officer of Extraordinary Vacations Group, Inc.
The case is being strongly contested. The defendant’s motion to dismiss
plaintiff’s amended complaint with prejudice has been argued before the judge in
the case. We are awaiting a ruling at this time.
Other
than the litigation matters listed above, we are currently not involved in any
litigation that we believe could have a materially 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 company’s or our company’s 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 amended Form 10-K filed with the
SEC on June 10, 2010, 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.
25
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.
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 such a 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, and
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.
