SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND
ORGANIZATION
|
(A) Basis of
Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for
interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the
information necessary for a comprehensive presentation of financial position and
results of operations.
It is
management’s opinion however, that all material adjustments (consisting of
normal recurring adjustments) have been made, which are necessary for a fair
financial statements presentation. The results for the interim period are
not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
year.
(B)
Organization
Snap
Interactive, Inc. f/k/a eTwine Holdings, Inc. (“the Company”) was incorporated
under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 19, 2005. eTwine,
Inc. was incorporated under the laws of the State of New York on May 7,
2004.
On
November 20, 2007 the eTwine Holdings, Inc changed its name to Snap Interactive,
Inc.
The
Company was organized to operate an online dating and social community website
that is proactive in understanding the singles environment.
(C) Principles of
Consolidation
The
accompanying 2008 and 2007 consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of Snap Interactive, Inc. and its 100% owned subsidiary eTwine, Inc.
All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in the
consolidation.
(D) Use of
Estimates
In
preparing financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, management is required 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 revenues and
expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

(E) Cash and Cash
Equivalents
For
purposes of the cash flow statements, the Company considers all highly liquid
investments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of
purchase to be cash equivalents.
(F) Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for income taxes under the Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement
109”). Under Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are
recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between
the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are
measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the
years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled. Under Statement 109, the effect on deferred tax assets and
liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that
includes the enactment date.
(G) Property and
Equipment
The
Company values property and equipment at cost and depreciates these assets using
the straight-line method over their expected useful life. The Company uses a
three year life for software and five year life for computer
equipment.
(H) Stock-Based
Compensation
In
December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which
replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Under SFAS
No. 123(R), companies are required to measure the compensation costs of
share-based compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and
recognize the costs in the financial statements over the period during which
employees are required to provide services. Share-based compensation
arrangements include stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based
awards, share appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. In March
2005 the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, or "SAB 107". SAB 107
expresses views of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R)
and certain SEC rules and regulations and provides the staff's views regarding
the valuation of share-based payment arrangements for public companies. SFAS No.
123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two
methods. On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the
compliance dates for SFAS 123R. Companies may elect to apply this statement
either prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective application
under which financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis
consistent with the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under SFAS
123. Effective January 1, 2006, the Company has fully adopted the provisions of
SFAS No. 123R and related interpretations as provided by SAB 107. As
such, compensation cost is measured on the date of grant at their fair
value. Such compensation amounts, if any, are amortized over the
respective vesting periods of the option grant. The Company applies
this statement prospectively.

Equity
instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the
basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by SFAS
No. 123(R). EITF Issue 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments
That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with
Selling, Goods or Services.” defines the measurement date and recognition
period for such instruments. In general, the measurement date is when
either a (a) performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier
of (i) the non-employee performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are
vested. The measured value related to the instruments is recognized over a
period based on the facts and circumstances of each particular grant as defined
in the EITF.
(I) Business
Segments
The
Company operates in one segment and therefore segment information is not
presented.
(J) Income (Loss) Per
Share
Basic
income (loss) per common share is computed based upon the weighted average
common shares outstanding as defined by Financial Accounting Standards No. 128,
“Earnings per Share.”
Diluted
income per share includes the dilutive effects of stock options, warrants, and
stock equivalents. To the extent stock options, warrants, and stock
equivalents are anti-dilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted
income per share. For the three and nine months ended September 30,
2007 the 175,185 shares issuable upon conversion of notes payable and 1,500,000
shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options were not included in the
computation of loss per share because their inclusion is
anti-dilutive. For the three and nine months ended September 30,
2008, 1,330,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants
were not included in the computation of diluted income per share because their
inclusion is anti-dilutive.
(K) Fair Value of
Financial Instruments
The
carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for accounts receivable, accounts
payable, advances from stockholder and notes payable approximate fair value
based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.

(L) Research and
Development
The
Company has adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force 00-2,
“Accounting for Web Site Development Costs.” Costs incurred in the
planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development while costs
incurred in the development stage are capitalized and amortized over the life of
the asset, estimated to be five years. Expenses subsequent to the
launch have been expensed as research and development expenses.
(M) Concentration of Credit
Risk
At
September 30, 2008, 31.88% of sales earned were due from Customer A, 18.51% were
due from Customer B, and 11.17% were due from Customer C.
At
September 30, 2008 10% of Accounts Receivable are due from Customer C, 57.6% are
due from Customer P and 17.6% are due from Customer S.
At
September 30, 2007, 33.6% of sales were earned from Customer A, 28.3% of sales
were earned from Customer B, and 11.8% of sales were earned from Customer C.
At
September
30, 2007, 45.4% of accounts receivable were due from Customer D and 24.2% were
due from Customer C.
The
Company at times has cash in banks in excess of FDIC insurance limits. The
Company had approximately $858,538 in excess of FDIC insurance limits as of
September 30, 2008.
(N) Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with Securities and
Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements” and No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”. In all cases, revenue
is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability is
reasonably assured.
The
Company recognizes revenue as earned on a click-through, impression, and
registration/subscription basis. When a user clicks an advertisement
(“CPC basis”), views an advertisement impression (“CPM basis”), or registers for
an external website via an advertisement clicked on through the Company’s
applications (“CPA basis”), or purchases “points” or completes an offer to
subscribe to premium features on the Company’s applications, the contract amount
is recognized as revenue.
The
Company also recognizes revenue based on the terms of a content licensing
agreement. The Company receives 50% of gross revenue of initial and renewing
customer subscriptions where the initial subscriptions occurred through June 11,
2008. After June 11, 2008, the agreement was amended so that the Company
receives a one-time payment of $4 per customer registration where such
registration first occurs after June 12, 2008. Gross revenues are delivered to
the Company within 30 days after each calendar month. Additionally, on August
20, 2008, the agreement was further amended to include a one time payment of
$1,412 for all registrations during the period June 11, 2008 to August 20,
2008 for U.K registered uses not covered by the contract. This was a one time
payment and will not be paid in the future.

(P) Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
160, “Noncontrolling Interests
in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No. 51”. This
statement improves the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the
financial information that a reporting entity provides in its consolidated
financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards that
require; the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the
parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and
to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face
of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a parent’s ownership
interest while the parent retains its controlling financial interest in its
subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary is deconsolidated,
any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary be
initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient disclosures that
clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the parent and the
interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160 affects those entities that
have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one or more subsidiaries or that
deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years, and
interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15,
2008. Early adoption is prohibited. The adoption of this statement is not
expected to have a material effect on the Company's financial
statements.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133” (SFAS 161). This
statement is intended to improve transparency in financial reporting by
requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging
activities and their effects on the entity’s financial position, financial
performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 applies to all derivative instruments
within the scope of SFAS 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities” (SFAS 133) as well as related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives,
and nonderivative instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging
instruments. Entities with instruments subject to SFAS 161 must provide more
robust qualitative disclosures and expanded quantitative disclosures. SFAS 161
is effective prospectively for financial statements issued for fiscal years and
interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early application
permitted. We are currently evaluating the disclosure implications of this
statement.

In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No.
162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162
identifies the sources of accounting principles and provides entities with a
framework for selecting the principles used in preparation of financial
statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP. The current GAAP
hierarchy has been criticized because it is directed to the auditor rather than
the entity, it is complex, and it ranks FASB Statements of Financial Accounting
Concepts, which are subject to the same level of due process as FASB
Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, below industry practices that are
widely recognized as generally accepted but that are not subject to due process.
The Board believes the GAAP hierarchy should be directed to entities because it
is the entity (not its auditors) that is responsible for selecting accounting
principles for financial statements that are presented in conformity with GAAP.
The adoption of FASB 162 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Company’s financial position.
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee
Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60.” Diversity
exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by
insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by
Insurance Enterprises. This results in inconsistencies in the recognition and
measurement of claim liabilities. This Statement requires that an insurance
enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured
event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an
insured financial obligation. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about
financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure
requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided
to users of financial statements. The adoption of FASB 163 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.

NOTE
3 CONVERTIBLE NOTES PAYABLE –
RELATED PARTY
On
December 29, 2005, $92,648 of stockholder advances were converted into an
unsecured convertible note payable, due December 31, 2008 and bearing interest
at a rate of 6% per annum. All debt can be converted at the rate of $0.25 per
share for each $1 of debt. The cash offering price at that time was
$0.25 and therefore there was no beneficial conversion feature on the note as
the market price and conversion price were equivalent. During 2006,
the stockholder exchanged $7,300 of the note payable in full payment of a
subscription receivable. On March 27, 2007, a stockholder converted
additional debt totaling $50,000 in exchange for 200,000 shares of common
stock. The fair value of the common stock was $0.25 per share based
upon the terms of the convertible note entered into on December 29,
2005. Accordingly, no gain or loss is recognized in this transaction.
At September 30, 2008, the Company had a remaining balance due of
$35,348.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Caution Regarding
Forward-Looking Information
The
following discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 relating to future events or our future performance. Actual
results may materially differ from those projected in the forward-looking
statements as a result of certain risks and uncertainties set forth in this

expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, there

correct or that actual results will not be different from expectations expressed
in this report.
Overview
We were
incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware on July 19, 2005. Clifford
Lerner is our sole officer and director, as well as our controlling stockholder.
On December 30, 2005, we obtained all of the shares of eTwine, Inc., a New York
Corporation pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement and Share Exchange
between eTwine, Inc. and us in consideration for the issuance of 8,227,000
shares to the eTwine, Inc. shareholders. Clifford Lerner remained our sole
officer and director after the agreement and pursuant to the agreement eTwine,
Inc. became our wholly owned subsidiary. The purpose of this merger was to
create a holding company in the event we decide to acquire other entities in
this industry in the future. In addition, the purpose was for the public entity
to be a Delaware corporation which has provisions of its laws that are more
favorable to our shareholders than New York laws.
In
November 2006, we launched an online dating website located at
http://www.IamFreeTonight.com. IamFreeTonight.com offers several unique features
for singles and utilizes the latest technologies to give singles an enhanced
user experience compared to other online dating sites currently on the
market. In December 2006, IamFreeTonight.com introduced the popular
concept of the 'Wingman' into its dating application. In January
2007, IamFreeTonight.com launched its unique ‘Date Now!’ concept. The ‘Date
Now!’ concept offers singles a new way to meet online by enabling them to find
and schedule dates in a matter of seconds. IamFreeTonight.com's Date Now!
feature gives users the ability to post when they're actually free to go out on
a date as well as what they'd like to do on their date.
In June
2007 we launched our first application on Facebook Platform (R) called Meet
New People.
In August
2007 we launched our second application on Facebook Platform (R) called Are
You Interested
In
December 2007 we changed our name from eTwine Holdings, Inc. to Snap
Interactive, Inc. and changed our symbol from ETWI to STVI to reflect the
company’s shifting focus on producing dating applications for Social Networking
websites.
Throughout 2008 we have continued to
focus on our existing dating applications on Facebook Platform (R) as well
as new applications on Myspace, Hi5, & Bebo. Collectively we have
8 applications across 4 Social Networking Platforms, with more than 16 Million
total installs.
Our
Applications
ARE YOU INTERESTED: Are You
Interested was launched on Facebook Platform (R) in August
2007. Since its launch, Are You Interested has consistently been one
of the leading pure-dating applications on Facebook as defined by Most
Daily Active Users and Most Monthly Active Users, as well as Total
Users. Are You Interested allows users to view pictures of other
members and indicate if they are “interested” by clicking “yes” on the
picture. We notify members when there is a mutual
match. In March 2008 we launched Are You Interested on Myspace, in
April 2008 we launched Are You Interested on Hi5, and we recently launched Are
You Interested on Bebo. Are You Interested now has approximately 12
Million total installs and receives over 1 Million visits per day on
average.
MEET NEW
PEOPLE: Meet New People was launched on Facebook
Platform (R) in June 2007 and substantially revamped in December
2007. Meet New People allows users to flirt with each other by
messaging online and post when they are free to hang out. Meet New
People has in excess of 3.5 Million total installs and is one of the leading
dating applications on Facebook.
FLIRT WITH
ME: Flirt With Me was launched on Myspace in March
2008, on Hi5 in April 2008, and recently on Bebo . Flirt With Me is a
fun dating application that allows users to exchange flirts with each other and
also integrates a "Flirt With Me" profile box onto a user's profiles to allow
anyone who visits their profile the ability to send funny flirt
messages. As of September 30, 2008, Flirt With Me had approximately
750,000 total installs.
In the coming months we will continue to
enhance our current applications as well as consider building additional dating
application on other large social networking sites and mobile platforms as they
launch or gain additional traction with their developer
platforms.

How
We Generate Revenue
Presently we generate the majority of
our revenue from advertisements placed on our applications on
Facebook. We run various different types of advertisements through a
number of advertising networks. Depending on the type of
advertisement, we are generally paid when a user either views the advertisement,
clicks the link in the advertisement, or signs up for the product or service
that is being advertised. Our revenue has increased by virtue of the
growth we have experienced in our applications over the past
year. While advertising payouts can vary greatly, and are subject to
numerous external factors, advertising revenue generally increases as the
total number of visits and total number of page views on our applications
increase. We do not presently employ any direct advertising
salesmen. Negotiating direct advertising deals and targeting and
optimizing our advertisements would likely increase the payouts we receive and
this is something we hope to do in the future as resources permit. We
have now begun running limited advertisements on several of our applications on
Myspace, Hi5, & Bebo and may expand those monetization efforts at a later
date.
In the future we may derive a larger
percentage of our revenue from sources other than advertisements. We
have recently begun implementing premium fee-based content and will consider
converting our applications to a subscription-based pay model at some point in
the next 12 months. Our decision to convert to a pay model and/or
charge for premium content is dependent upon a variety of factors. Some of these
factors include how much activity there is on the applications, the nature of
the payment processing tools available on the underlying Social Networking
websites, as well as the success and popularity of new features we add in the
coming months. Each application will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis
in light of the above factors. We have begun to explore other revenue
sources that have proven successful in the industry including the
introduction of a “virtual currency” and the sale of premium “virtual goods,”
and will consider incorporating these revenue sources into more of our
applications in the future.
Our
Business Objectives for the Remainder of 2008
· Continue to upgrade our existing
applications
· Consider building new applications on
additional social networking platforms and explore mobile
platforms
· Identify
& explore new opportunities that emerge in our rapidly evolving
industry
· Expand
our programming resources
Results
of Operations for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008 Compared to
the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2007
Revenues
Revenue
increased from $35,383 for the three months ended September 30, 2007 to $871,324
for the three months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of
$835,941.
Revenue
increased from $35,669 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007 to
$1,924,483 for the nine months ended September 30, 2008, an increase of
$1,888,814.
These revenues are primarily generated
from advertisements placed on our Are You Interested & Meet New People
applications as well as premium features on our Are You Interested application
on Facebook. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the growth of our
applications and the increased usage in the third quarter of 2008 compared to
the same time period in 2007, which resulted in more traffic to our applications
which produced more impressions and clicks on advertisements displayed on
our applications as well as use of our premium
features.
Operating
Expenses
Operating
Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $423,667
from $116,958 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, representing an
increase of $306,709.
Operating
Expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $1,141,016
from $394,592 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, representing an
increase of $746,424.
The increase in Operating Expenses is
primarily attributable to the overall expansion of our operations as compared to
the previous year, at which time we were a development stage
company. Primary Operating Expenses include Compensation
Expense, General & Administrative Expenses, and Hosting
costs.
Compensation Expense for the three
months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $213,118 from $15,000 for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, representing an increase of
$198,118. Compensation Expense for the nine months ended September
30, 2008 increased to $581,548 from $15,000 for the nine months ended September
30, 2007, representing an increase of $566,548. The increase in
Compensation Expense was due to the hiring of new employees and the
implementation of a regular payroll for the first time in
2008.
-19-
General
and Administrative Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2008
increased to $118,594 from $65,062 for the three months ended September 30,
2007, representing an increase of $53,532. General and Administrative
Expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $312,228 from
$219,862 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, representing an increase
of $92,366. The increase in General and Administrative Expense is due
to the overall expansion of our operations as compared to last year, at which
time we were a development stage company.
Hosting Expense for the three months
ended September 30, 2008 increased to $57,676 from $0 for the three months ended
September 30, 2007, representing an increase of $57,676. Hosting
Expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $145,188 from
$0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2007, representing an increase of
$145,188. These increases are attributable to the need for
substantial hosting infrastructure and server capacity to handle the high volume
of traffic that our applications receive. Our need for a customized
hosting solution was minimal at this time last year and as such, our hosting
costs were minimal during the same period last year.
Professional
fees for the three months ended September 30, 2008 increased to $17,500 from
$4,568 for the three months ended September 30, 2007, representing an increase
of $12,932. Professional fees for the nine months ended September 30,
2008 increased to $54,255 from $15,789 for the nine months ended September 30,
2007, representing an increase of $38,466. The increase in
professional fees was due to the overall expansion of our operations as compared
to the previous year, at which time we were a development stage
company.
Net Income
Net Income increased to $410,283 for the
three months ended September 30, 2008 from a loss of $79,538 for the three
months ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $489,821.
Net Income increased to $745,654 for the
nine months ended September 30, 2008 from a loss of $357,537 for the nine months
ended September 30, 2007, an increase of $1,103,491.
The increase in net income was primarily
due to the increased revenue from the growth of our applications and the
increased usage in the third quarter of 2008 compared to the same time period in
2007, which resulted in more traffic to our applications which
produced more impressions and clicks on advertisements displayed on our
applications and use of our premium features.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
The
Company is currently financing its operations primarily through cash generated
by its previous financing activities and revenues derived from advertisements
placed on our Facebook applications.
As of
September 30, 2008, the Company had $1,045,487 in cash. Historically,
the Company’s principal working capital needs have been met through continuing
operations. As the Company grows and expands its operations, the need for
working capital will increase. The Company expects to finance its internal
growth with cash provided from operations, borrowings, debt or equity offerings,
or some combination thereof.
The
Company’s net income for the three months ended September 30, 2008 was
$410,283. During this period we received a total of $871,324 in revenue
and had total operating expenses of $423,667. Net cash provided by
operating activities was $746,679 during the nine months ended September 30,
2008 as compared to cash used in operating activities of $283,394 for nine
months ended September 30, 2007. Cash provided by operating
activities mainly consisted of net income of $746,679 and accounts receivable of
$172,784. The Company has an operating profit at this time and intends to use
its cash to continue to funds its operations going forward.

Transaction with Dutchess
Private Equities Fund II, LLP
On November 22, 2006, we entered into an
Investment Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Dutchess Private Equities Fund, Ltd.
(“Dutchess”) to provide us with an equity line of credit. Pursuant to this
Agreement, Dutchess is contractually obligated to purchase up to
$10,000,000 of the Company’s Stock over the course of 36 months (“Line
Period”), after our registration statement was declared effective (“Effective
Date”). The amount that the Company is entitled to request from each of
the purchase “Puts”, is equal to either 1) $100,000 or 2) 200%
of the average daily volume (U.S market only) (“ADV”), multiplied by the average
of the three (3) daily closing prices immediately preceding the Put Date.
The ADV is computed using the ten (10) trading days prior to the Put Date.
The Purchase Price for the common stock identified in the Put Notice is set at
ninety-five percent (95%) of the lowest closing bid price of the common stock
during the Pricing Period. The Pricing Period is equal to the period beginning
on the Put Notice Date and ending on and including the date that is five (5)
trading days after such Put Notice Date. As of September 30, 2008, we
have never accessed this line of credit.
Critical Accounting
Pronouncements
Our
significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 1 of our financial
statements.
We have
adopted the following accounting standards. While all of these significant
accounting policies impact our financial condition, our views of these policies
are critical. Policies determined to be critical are those policies that have
the most significant impact on our financial statements and require management
to use a greater degree of judgment and estimates. Actual results may differ
from those estimates. Our management believes that given current facts and
circumstances, it is unlikely that applying any other reasonable judgments or
estimate methodologies would cause effect on our consolidated results of
operations, financial position or liquidity for the periods presented in this
report:
We
account for income taxes under the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (“Statement 109”). Under
Statement 109, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future
tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement
carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective
tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using
enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or
settled.

We value
property and equipment at cost and depreciates these assets using the
straight-line method over their expected useful life. We use a three year life
for software and five year life for computer equipment.
In
December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123(R), "Share-Based Payment," which
replaces SFAS No. 123 and supersedes APB Opinion No. 25. Under SFAS No. 123(R),
companies are required to measure the compensation costs of share-based
compensation arrangements based on the grant-date fair value and recognize the
costs in the financial statements over the period during which employees are
required to provide services. Share-based compensation arrangements include
stock options, restricted share plans, performance-based awards, share
appreciation rights and employee share purchase plans. In March 2005 the SEC
issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, or "SAB 107". SAB 107 expresses views
of the staff regarding the interaction between SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC
rules and regulations and provides the staff's views regarding the valuation of
share-based payment arrangements for public companies.
SFAS No.
123(R) permits public companies to adopt its requirements using one of two
methods. On April 14, 2005, the SEC adopted a new rule amending the compliance
dates for SFAS 123R. Companies may elect to apply this statement either
prospectively, or on a modified version of retrospective application under which
financial statements for prior periods are adjusted on a basis consistent with
the pro forma disclosures required for those periods under SFAS 123. Effective
January 1, 2006, the Company has fully adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 123R
and related interpretations as provided by SAB 107. As such, compensation cost
is measured on the date of grant at their fair value. Such compensation amounts,
if any, are amortized over the respective vesting periods of the option grant.
The Company applies this statement prospectively.
Equity
instruments (“instruments”) issued to other than employees are recorded on the
basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by SFAS No. 123(R). EITF
Issue 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments
That Are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with
Selling, Goods or
Services.” defines the measurement date and recognition period for such
instruments. In general, the measurement date is when either a (a) performance
commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) the earlier of (i) the non-employee
performance is complete or (ii) the instruments are vested. The measured value
related to the instruments is recognized over a period based on the facts and
circumstances of each particular grant as defined in the EITF.
We have
adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force 00-2, “Accounting for Web
Site Development Costs.” Costs incurred in the planning stage of a website are
expensed as research and development while costs incurred in the development
stage are capitalized and amortized over the life of the asset, estimated to be
five years. Expenses subsequent to the launch have been expensed as research and
development expenses.
We
recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with Securities and Exchange
Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, “Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements” and No. 104, “Revenue Recognition”. In all cases, revenue is
recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of
an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability is reasonably
assured.
The
Company recognizes revenue as earned on a click-through, impression, and
registration/subscription basis. When a user clicks an advertisement
(“CPC basis”), views an advertisement impression (“CPM basis”), or registers for
an external website via an advertisement clicked on through the Company’s
applications (“CPA basis”), or purchases “points” or completes an offer to
subscribe to premium features on the Company’s applications, the contract amount
is recognized as revenue.
The
Company also recognizes revenue based on the terms of a content licensing
agreement. The Company receives 50% of gross revenue of initial and renewing
customer subscriptions where the initial subscriptions occurred through June 11,
2008. After June 11, 2008, the agreement was amended so that the Company
receives a one-time payment of $4 per customer registration where such
registration first occurs after June 12, 2008. Gross revenues are delivered to
the Company within 30 days after each calendar month. Additionally, on August
20, 2008, the agreement was further amended to include a one time payment of
$1,412 for all registrations during the period June 11, 2008 to August 20,
2008 for U.K registered uses not covered by the contract. This was a one time
payment and will not be paid in the future.
Recent Accounting
Pronouncements
In
December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
160, “Noncontrolling Interests
in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB No.
51”. This statement improves the relevance, comparability, and
transparency of the financial information that a reporting entity provides in
its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting
standards that require; the ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties
other than the parent and the amount of consolidated net income attributable to
the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and
presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income, changes in a
parent’s ownership interest while the parent retains its controlling financial
interest in its subsidiary be accounted for consistently, when a subsidiary
is deconsolidated, any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former
subsidiary be initially measured at fair value, entities provide sufficient
disclosures that clearly identify and distinguish between the interests of the
parent and the interests of the noncontrolling owners. SFAS No. 160
affects those entities that have an outstanding noncontrolling interest in one
or more subsidiaries or that deconsolidate a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160
is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal
years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Early adoption is prohibited.
The adoption of this statement is not expected to have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.
In March
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”
(SFAS 161). This statement is intended to improve transparency in financial
reporting by requiring enhanced disclosures of an entity’s derivative
instruments and hedging activities and their effects on the entity’s financial
position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS 161 applies to all
derivative instruments within the scope of SFAS 133, “Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (SFAS 133) as well as
related hedged items, bifurcated derivatives, and nonderivative instruments that
are designated and qualify as hedging instruments. Entities with instruments
subject to SFAS 161 must provide more robust qualitative disclosures and
expanded quantitative disclosures. SFAS 161 is effective prospectively for
financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after
November 15, 2008, with early application permitted. We are currently
evaluating the disclosure implications of this statement.
-22-
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted
Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting
principles and provides entities with a framework for selecting the principles
used in preparation of financial statements that are presented in conformity
with GAAP. The current GAAP hierarchy has been criticized because it is directed
to the auditor rather than the entity, it is complex, and it ranks FASB
Statements of Financial Accounting Concepts, which are subject to the same level
of due process as FASB Statements of Financial Accounting Standards, below
industry practices that are widely recognized as generally accepted but that are
not subject to due process. The Board believes the GAAP hierarchy should be
directed to entities because it is the entity (not its auditors) that is
responsible for selecting accounting principles for financial statements that
are presented in conformity with GAAP. The adoption of FASB 162 is not expected
to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.
In May
2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 163, “Accounting for Financial Guarantee
Insurance Contracts-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 60.” Diversity
exists in practice in accounting for financial guarantee insurance contracts by
insurance enterprises under FASB Statement No. 60, Accounting and Reporting by
Insurance Enterprises. This results in inconsistencies in the recognition and
measurement of claim liabilities. This Statement requires that an insurance
enterprise recognize a claim liability prior to an event of default (insured
event) when there is evidence that credit deterioration has occurred in an
insured financial obligation. This Statement requires expanded disclosures about
financial guarantee insurance contracts. The accounting and disclosure
requirements of the Statement will improve the quality of information provided
to users of financial statements. The adoption of FASB 163 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s financial position.

4T. Controls and Procedures
a)
Evaluation of Disclosure
Controls. Clifford Lerner, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures as of the end of our third fiscal quarter 2008 pursuant to Rule
13a-15(b) of the Securities and Exchange Act. Disclosure controls and procedures
are controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information
required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the
Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and
procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to
ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we
file under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management,
as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on
his evaluation, Mr. Lerner concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures
were effective as of September 30, 2008.
It should
be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can
provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the
system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part
upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these
and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance
that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential
future conditions
(b)
Changes in internal
control over financial reporting. There have been no changes in our
internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal
quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, our internal control over financial reporting. Our management team will
continue to evaluate our internal control over financial reporting in 2008 as we
implement our Sarbanes Oxley Act testing.
