NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
MARCH 31, 2011

(UNAUDITED)
 
NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
(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 statement presentation.  The results for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
 
(B) Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying 2011 and 2010 consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Snap Interactive, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, eTwine, Inc. and Snap Mobile Limited (collectively, the “Company”).  All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
(C) 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.

Our most significant estimates are for potential credit card chargebacks and refunds based on our historical chargeback and refund experience.  We evaluate our estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.  Sales are reduced by the amount of these estimates.
 
(D) 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.
 
(E) Income Taxes
 
The Company accounts for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”).  Under ASC 740, 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 ASC 740, 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.

 (F) 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 depreciates software, website costs and leasehold improvements over a three-year useful life and computer equipment over a five-year useful life.

SNAP INTERACTIVE, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
 
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
MARCH 31, 2011

(UNAUDITED)
 
In accordance with ASC No. 360, Property, Plant and Equipment, the Company carries long-lived assets at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value. Impairment is evaluated by estimating future undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected undiscounted future cash flow is less than the carrying amount of the assets, an impairment loss is recognized. Fair value, for purposes of calculating impairment, is measured based on estimated future cash flows, discounted at a market rate of interest.
 
There were no impairment losses recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
(G) Intangible Assets
 
In accordance with ASC No. 350, Intangibles, Goodwill and Other, the Company requires that intangible assets with a finite life be amortized over their life and requires that goodwill and intangible assets be reviewed for impairment annually or more frequently if impairment indicators arise.
 
(H) Stock-Based Compensation
 
In December 2004, the FASB issued ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”).  Under ASC 718, 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.  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 persons other than employees are recorded on the basis of the fair value of the instruments, as required by ASC 718.  ASC No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”) defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments.  In general, the measurement date is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when 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 ASC 505.
 
 (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 ASC No. 260, Earnings Per Share.
 
Diluted income per share includes the dilutive effects of stock options, warrants, and stock equivalents.  To the extent stock options, stock equivalents and warrants are anti-dilutive, they are excluded from the calculation of diluted income per share.  For the three months ended March 31, 2010, 7,350,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants were not included in the computation of income and warrants per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, 8,200,000 shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options and warrants and 525,555 shares issuable upon the conversion of convertible debt were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share because their inclusion is anti-dilutive.

Basic loss per share
  $ (0.02 )   $ (0.02 )
 
(K) Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for accounts receivable, credit card holdback receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses, deferred revenue, accrued interest - related party and convertible notes payable - related party is the approximate fair value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments.
 
(L) Research and Development
 
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC No. 350, Intangibles – Goodwill & Other.  Costs incurred in the planning stage of a website are expensed as research and development expenses 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 March 31, 2011, accounts receivable consisted of thousands of customer charges that primarily occurred toward the end of the three months ended March 31, 2011, that were due from payment processors but not yet remitted to the Company because the settlement of credit card sales typically occurs several days after the date of the charge.  At March 31, 2011, 52% was due from one payment processor and 24% was due from a second payment processor.

At March 31, 2010, 70% of advertising sales earned was from Customer A and 13.67% of advertising sales was from Customer B.
 
At March 31, 2010, 46.73% of accounts receivable from advertising sales was due from Customer B, 25.27% of advertising sales was due from Customer C, and 14.47% of advertising sales was due from Customer D.

The Company at times has cash in bank accounts in excess of FDIC insurance limits.

(N) Revenue Recognition
 
The Company recognizes revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC No. 605, 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 has revenue streams consisting of subscriptions, the sale of points and advertisements.
 
The Company recognizes revenue from monthly premium subscription fees in the month in which the services are used. Revenues are presented net of refunds, credits and known credit card chargebacks.   Subscriptions are currently offered in durations of varying length from one month to six months – generally in one, three and six month terms.
 
Revenues from multi-month subscriptions are recognized over the length of the subscription term rather than when the subscription is purchased. Because a significant amount of the Company’s subscription sales occurred from subscriptions with a term of three or six months, the Company apportions that revenue over the duration of the subscription term even though it is collected in full at the time of purchase. The difference between the gross cash receipts collected and the recognized revenue from those sales during that reporting period will appear as deferred revenue.
 
The Company recognizes revenue from the direct sale of “points” over two months.  Points can be used in exchange for premium features on products. 
 
The Company recognizes advertising revenue as earned on a click-through, impression, and registration or subscription basis.  When a user clicks an advertisement (“CPC basis”), views an advertisement impression (“CPM basis”), registers for an external website via an advertisement clicked on through the Company’s applications (“CPA basis”), or clicks on an offer to subscribe to premium features on the Company’s applications, the contract amount is recognized as revenue.
 
The Company’s payment processors have established routine reserve accounts to secure the performance of the Company’s obligations under its service agreements.  This is standard practice within the payment processing industry.  These reserve accounts withhold a small percentage of the Company’s sales in a segregated account in the form of a six-month rolling reserve.  The funds that are withheld each month are returned to the Company on a monthly basis after six months of being held in the reserve account and any remaining funds will be returned to the Company 90 to 180 days following termination of such agreements.  These funds are classified as credit card holdback receivable and totaled $332,121 and $61,436 as at March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had the following revenues:

We reserve for potential credit card chargebacks based on our historical experience and knowledge of the industry.  As of March 31, 2011 the Company has recorded $44,601 for potential future chargebacks and the amount is included in accrued expenses on the balance sheet.

(O) Cost of Revenue
 
Cost of revenue includes the expenses associated with the operation of data centers, including labor, consulting, hosting, server, web design and programming expenses.
 
(P) Reclassification
 
Certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
 
(Q) Advertising and Marketing
 
Advertising and marketing costs are expensed as incurred.  Advertising and marketing expense was $3,371,958 and $829,416 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
 
(R) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13 (“ASU 2009-13”), which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables. ASU 2009-13 significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements. ASU 2009-13 will be effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, provided that the guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2009-13 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements upon its required adoption on January 1, 2011.

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which will become effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
 
In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 (“ASU 2010-09”), which amends ASC 855 – Subsequent Events to eliminate the requirement for public companies to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company will continue to evaluate subsequent events through the date of the issuance of the financial statements; however, consistent with the guidance, this date will no longer be disclosed. ASU 2010-09 does not have any impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-13 (“ASU 2010-13”) which amends ASC 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification. ASU 2010-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010, and the Company is currently assessing the potential impact, if any, the adoption of this update may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

The note can be converted at the rate of $0.08 per share for each $1.00 of debt.  The cash offering price at that time was $0.08 and therefore there was no beneficial conversion feature on the note as the market price and conversion price were equivalent.  During 2006, the Co-Founder exchanged $7,300 of the note payable in full payment of a subscription receivable. On March 27, 2007, the Co-Founder converted additional debt totaling $50,000 in exchange for 600,000 shares of common stock.

(A) Employment Agreements
 
In January and February 2009, the Company entered into various agreements with several employees whereby the Company is required to issue up to 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock in various increments over the following two years subject to conditions including continued employment with the Company at the time of issuance.
 
On October 12, 2009, the Company authorized the issuance of 30,000 shares of common stock to be issued in 2010 and 2011 as compensation pursuant to the terms of an agreement, having a fair value of $3,500 subject to certain terms and vesting requirements being met during that time period.
 
The Company has entered into employment agreements with employees for various terms through June 30, 2013 requiring a commitment of salaries and bonuses totaling $607,783.  These agreements are subject to various conditions including continued employment with the Company at the time of scheduled payment of bonuses.  The agreements also call for the employees to receive health benefits as well as various stock and option awards.
  
On December 1, 2007, the Company entered into a one-year employment agreement with its Co-Founder, with the initial term of the employment agreement expiring on December 1, 2008. Pursuant to the employment agreement, the Company issued 300,000 shares of common stock, an option to purchase 3,000,000 shares of common stock. In addition, the employment agreement provides him with annual compensation of $160,000 per year, with annual bonus and salary increases determined by the Company.  The agreement also calls for its Co-Founder to receive health benefits, monthly membership for a health and fitness facility as well as a complete annual physical.  In addition, upon a change in control of the Company, the employee will receive severance payments equal to the remaining amounts due under the employment agreement plus a minimum of two years base compensation, plus any prorated share of incentive compensation and stock options associated with any signing bonus, plus health benefits up to two years and up to $50,000 in job search costs.  On October 10, 2008, the Company issued 750,000 shares of common stock for professional services rendered having a fair value of $50,000 on the date of grant.  Beginning February 28, 2009, the employee receives $750 per month as a transportation allowance.  As of December 31, 2010, the employment agreement had not been extended, however the employment relationship has continued under the same terms with an increased annual salary of $190,000, effective February 1, 2011.
 
On January 1, 2010, the Company and its Co-Founder revised his employment agreement and agreed to issue 300,000 shares to him in exchange for 3,000,000 options (1,500,000 @ $.23 and 1,500,000 @ $.50) previously issued and expensed on December 1, 2007.  The shares issued will vest upon the earlier of three years or in the event that there is a change in control in the Company due to reorganization, merger, consolidation, or sale of the Company.  

In March 2010, an amendment to the employment agreement was signed that requires the Company to indemnify its Co-Founder  against any action or suit brought against him as a result of the performance of his job duties. (See Note 4(A))
 
In accordance with ASC No. 718, this transaction should be treated as a modification of an award and incremental compensation cost shall be measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the 300,000 shares issued over the fair value of the exchanged options immediately before its terms are modified, measured based on the share price and other pertinent factors at that date.

The Company has valued the exchanged options at their fair value on March 1, 2010, using the Black-Scholes option pricing method.  The assumptions used were as follows:

      1 year
   Expected volatility:
      141.34%
   Risk free interest rate:
      3.31%
   Expected dividends:

Based on the above calculation, the Company has determined that there is no additional compensation to be realized as result of this modification.

The fair value of the common stock was $0.08 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 March 31, 2011, the Company had a remaining principal balance due of $35,348. (See Note 5)

Overview
 
We develop, own and operate dating and social networking software applications that can be accessed by users on social networking websites and platforms, such as Facebook, and iPhone users, as well as an online dating website and a location-based social networking application and website. Applications that we have created include AreYouInterested.com and WhoIsNear.com.  Our portfolio of applications is designed to appeal to a broad base of Internet and iPhone users. We transitioned our leading application AreYouInterested.com from an advertising-based to a subscription-based revenue model in late 2009, and in 2010 and the first quarter of 2011, we primarily generated revenue from subscription fees and premium sales on our AreYouInterested.com Facebook application and our AreYouInterested.com Internet website. As of May 10, 2011, we had in excess of 41 million total installations across our AreYouInterested.com and WhoIsNear.com brands.  
 
Our key operating performance highlights for the first quarter of 2011 include more than 11 million new installations of the AreYouInterested.com Facebook application and the public beta launch of the location-based service WhoIsNear.com, with a fully integrated web, mobile, iPhone and social networking application.
 
 
20

 
 
 
Our key financial highlights for the first quarter of 2011 include:

·  
Revenue increased 303% to $3,736,905 for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $927,436 for the first quarter of 2010;
 
·  
Deferred revenue at March 31, 2011 increased 23% to $2,393,024 compared to $1,937,915 at December 31, 2010; and
 
·  
Net cash provided by financing activities increased to $7,915,700 for the first quarter of 2011 compared to $0 for the first quarter of 2010.

Key Performance Indicators
 
Management believes that the following financial and operating measurements are key indicators of the strength of our business:
 
·  
Subscription sales and revenue;
 
·  
Subscriber retention rate; and
 
·  
Website and application traffic.

How We Generate Revenue
 
In the fourth quarter of 2009, we implemented a subscription-based revenue model into our AreYouInterested.com Facebook application as well as AreYouInterested.com in order to generate additional revenue.  We had previously generated the majority of our revenue through advertisements placed on our products.  Since the beginning of 2010, subscription fees and premium sales have been our primary sources of revenue.  Our subscription-based offering on the AreYouInterested.com brand provides users with unlimited messaging, unlimited access to communicate with their matches, the ability to see who viewed their profile, the ability to send an unlimited number of premium virtual gifts, and access to several other premium features.

We recognize revenue from monthly premium subscription fees in the month in which the services are provided. Revenues are presented net of refunds, credits and known credit card chargebacks.  Our subscriptions are currently offered in durations of one-, three- and six-month terms.  Longer-term plans (those with durations longer than one month) are generally available at discounted monthly rates.  All subscription fees, however, are collected at the time of purchase regardless of the length of the subscription term.  Revenues from longer-term plans are recognized pro-rata over the subscription term.  Pursuant to our terms of service, most subscriptions automatically renew for periods of the same length as the original subscription term until subscribers terminate them.
 
We also recognize revenue from the direct sale of “points” over two months. Members can either purchase or earn points by performing activities, such as by browsing profiles, that can be used in exchange for accessing certain premium features on our applications. Determining whether the criteria for spending points has been satisfied often involves management making assumptions and judgments that may have an impact on the timing and amount of revenue we recognize in each period. At this time, we believe that our assumptions and judgments are fair and we will continue to monitor them in order to determine if there are significant changes in usage patterns.
 
We currently offer several different payment method options and maintain relationships with multiple payment processors in order to: (i) diversify our risk and reliance on a single payment processor, (ii) ensure competitive rates and (iii) offer our users as many payment options as possible.  We intend to research and explore relationships with multiple payment processors in the future.

Our Business Objectives
 
During 2011, our business objectives include:
 
·  
Upgrading and developing our AreYouInterested.com and WhoIsNear.com products with new features, enhancements and optimizations;
 
·
Continuing to expand the overall product offering between the AreYouInterested.com Facebook application, AreYouInterested.com website and AreYouInterested.com iPhone application for an enhanced user experience across all platforms;
 
·  
Refining our marketing and statistical tracking tools on the AreYouInterested.com brand;
 
·  
Determining whether to build new applications on social networking platforms and whether to develop and explore new mobile platforms and products; and
 
·  
Identifying and exploring new opportunities that emerge in our rapidly evolving industry.

Results of Operations  — Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2010
 
Revenues

Revenue increased to $3,736,905 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $927,436 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $2,809,469, or 303%.  We experienced an increase in revenue versus the same period of the previous year as a result of an increase in the amount of subscriptions sold in the quarter ended March 31, 2011 as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Our revenue generated from subscription/point sales and advertising was $3,723,567 and $13,338, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, compared to $750,366 and $177,070, for the quarter ended March 31, 2010. Our revenue is primarily generated from subscription sales on the AreYouInterested.com brand.  
 
As we continued optimizing our subscription model in the first quarter of 2011 and refined our marketing approach in order to buy traffic more effectively, we experienced a quarterly increase in subscription sales for the first quarter of 2011.
 
Cost of Revenue
 
Cost of revenue increased to $454,639 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $375,215 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase of $79,424, or 21%.  The increase in cost of revenue is primarily attributable to increased salary expenses due to expansion of our staff.
 
Operating Expenses

Operating expenses increased to $4,213,476 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $1,368,246 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $2,845,230, or 208%.  The increase in operating expenses is primarily attributable to a significant increase in advertising and marketing expenditures for user acquisition campaigns.  Other operating expenses include advertising and marketing expense, general and administrative expense, compensation expense and professional fees.
 
Advertising and marketing expense increased to $3,371,958 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $829,416 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $2,542,542, or 307%. The increase in advertising and marketing expenses was due to an increase in user acquisition campaigns, and we anticipate experiencing further increases in marketing expenses throughout the remainder of 2011.
 
 
 
22

 
 
 
General and administrative expense increased to $481,505 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $291,986 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $189,519, or 65%.  The increase in general and administrative expense is primarily attributable to a significant increase in credit card processing fees. General and administrative expense also increased due to increased insurance expense, recruiting expense and increased costs associated with the overall expansion of our business.

Compensation expense increased to $238,436 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $197,751 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $40,685 or 21%.  The increase in compensation expense was due to primarily an increase in retention bonuses as well as an increase in staff and related payroll taxes.

Professional fees increased to $121,577 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from $49,093 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, representing an increase of $72,484, or 148%.  The increase in professional fees was due to increased legal and accounting fees as a result of the overall expansion of our business and the transition to a subscription-based revenue model for our AreYouInterested.com offering.

Net Loss

As a result of the foregoing, net loss increased to $920,746 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 from a net loss of $803,449 for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, an increase in net loss of $117,297, or 15%.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We are currently financing our operations through cash generated by our recent financing, subscription fees received from our applications and online dating website, fees for premium features of our applications and revenues derived from advertisements purchased on our various applications.

As of March 31, 2011, we had $10,205,118 in cash compared to $3,018,876 as of December 31, 2010. Historically, our working capital has been generated through operations. If we continue to grow and expand our operations, our need for working capital will increase. For the near-term, we do not anticipate being profitable because we intend to increase our acquisition costs related to marketing and advertising and through hiring additional employees, primarily engineers. We expect to finance our internal growth with cash on hand, cash provided from operations, borrowings, debt or equity offerings, or some combination thereof.

Cash Flows

Cash used in operating activities increased $289,749 to $705,121 due mainly to increases in accounts receivable, credit card holdback receivable and decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue. Cash provided by financing activities increased to $7,915,700 due to proceeds from the issuance of common stock and warrants in the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  Cash used in investing activities increased $22,353 to $24,337 due to the purchase of fixed assets.

Financing Activities

On January 19, 2011 (the “Closing Date”), for total subscription proceeds of $8,500,000 (the “Offering”) we issued: (i) 4,250,000 shares of our common stock (the “Purchased Shares”) and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) exercisable into 2,125,000 shares of common stock (the “Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price of $2.50 per share to certain accredited investors (the “Investors”).  The number of shares of common stock to be received upon the exercise of the Warrants and the exercise price of the Warrants are subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations and other similar transactions that occur after the Closing Date.
 
 
23

 
 
In connection with the Offering, we granted the Investors registration rights pursuant to a registration rights agreement dated as of the Closing Date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we filed a registration statement on February 11, 2011, as amended by an amendment filed on April 6, 2011, registering (i) all of the Purchased Shares; (ii) the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and (iii) any securities issued or then issuable upon any stock split, dividend or other distribution, recapitalization or similar event with respect to the foregoing.
 
In connection with the Offering, we paid a cash placement agency fee to the placement agent equal to 6% of the aggregate purchase price paid by the Investors. We further agreed to pay a cash fee equal to 6% of the aggregate cash exercise price received by us upon the exercise of the Warrants.

For a more detailed description of the Offering, please refer to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC the on January 21, 2011.

We currently have no lines of credit or access to short-term borrowing or financing options.  We are using cash generated from operations as well as cash from our private placement to fund our operations.  Because we have no lines of credit from which to finance operations, we would be dependent upon third-party financing or obtaining such borrowing facilities if the need for immediate capital were to arise. For additional information, see Note 5 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements “Convertible Notes Payable—Related Party”.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
We account for income taxes under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 740, Income Taxes (“ASC 740”).  Under ASC 740, 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 ASC 740, 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.
 
In accordance with ASC No. 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”), we 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.  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.  We apply 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 ASC 718.  ASC No. 505, Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees (“ASC 505”) defines the measurement date and recognition period for such instruments.  In general, the measurement date is (a) when a performance commitment, as defined, is reached or (b) when 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 ASC 505.
 
We recognize revenue on arrangements in accordance with ASC No. 605, 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.  We have revenue streams consisting of subscriptions, the sale of points and advertisements.  We recognize revenue from monthly premium subscription fees in the month in which the services are used.  Revenues are presented net of refunds, credits and known credit card chargebacks. Subscriptions are currently offered in durations of varying length from one month to six months – generally in one, three and six month terms.  Revenues from multi-month subscriptions are recognized over the length of the subscription term rather than when the subscription is purchased.  Because a significant amount of our subscription sales occurred from subscriptions with a term of three or six months, we apportion that revenue over the duration of the subscription term even though it is collected in full at the time of purchase.  The difference between the gross cash receipts collected and the recognized revenue from those sales during that reporting period will appear as deferred revenue.  We also recognize revenue from the direct sale of “points” over two months. Points can be used in exchange for premium features on products.  We recognize advertising revenue as earned on a click-through, impression, and registration or subscription basis.  When a user clicks an advertisement (“CPC basis”), views an advertisement impression (“CPM basis”), registers for an external website via an advertisement clicked on through our applications (“CPA basis”), or clicks on an offer to subscribe to premium features on our applications, the contract amount is recognized as revenue.
 
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
 
In October 2009, the FASB issued an Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13 (“ASU 2009-13”), which addresses the accounting for multiple-deliverable arrangements to enable vendors to account for products or services separately rather than as a combined unit and modifies the manner in which the transaction consideration is allocated across the separately identified deliverables.  ASU 2009-13 significantly expands the disclosure requirements for multiple-deliverable revenue arrangements.  ASU 2009-13 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2010, and may be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted, provided that the guidance is retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. The adoption of ASU  2009-13 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements upon its required adoption on January 1, 2011.
 
 
24

 

In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance to amend the disclosure requirements related to recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements. The guidance requires new disclosures on the transfers of assets and liabilities between Level 1 (quoted prices in active market for identical assets or liabilities) and Level 2 (significant other observable inputs) of the fair value measurement hierarchy, including the reasons and the timing of the transfers. Additionally, the guidance requires a roll forward of activities on purchases, sales, issuance, and settlements of the assets and liabilities measured using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 fair value measurements). The guidance became effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning January 1, 2010, except for the disclosure on the roll forward activities for Level 3 fair value measurements, which will become effective for the Company with the reporting period beginning July 1, 2011. Other than requiring additional disclosures, adoption of this new guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-09 (“ASU 2010-09”), which amends ASC 855 – Subsequent Events to eliminate the requirement for public companies to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. The Company will continue to evaluate subsequent events through the date of the issuance of the financial statements; however, consistent with the guidance, this date will no longer be disclosed. ASU 2010-09 does not have any impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

In April 2010, the FASB issued ASU No. 2010-13 (“ASU 2010-13”), which amends ASC 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718”) to clarify that a share-based payment award with an exercise price denominated in the currency of a market in which a substantial portion of the entity’s equity securities trades shall not be considered to contain a market, performance, or service condition. Therefore, such an award is not to be classified as a liability if it otherwise qualifies as equity classification.  ASU 2010-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2010, and the Company is currently assessing the potential impact, if any, the adoption of this update may have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3.                    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
Not applicable.
 
Item 4.                    Controls and Procedures.
 
Evaluation of Disclosures Controls and Procedures
 
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of March 31, 2011, the end of the period covered by this report, our management concluded its evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. As of the evaluation date, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that there are material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting including (i) management’s failure to issue stock certificates in a timely manner to certain employees, upon their meeting of all requirements to earn such shares, and (ii) our lack of an audit committee. Therefore, disclosure controls and procedures are not effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods prescribed by SEC rules and regulations, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
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 have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Our online social networking applications rely heavily on email campaigns, and as our subscriber base continues to grow we face an increasing risk that any disruptions or restrictions on the sending or receipt of emails or increase in the associated costs could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
 
Our emails are an important driver of our subscribers’ activities. We send a large volume of emails to our subscribers notifying them of a variety of activities on our applications, such as new matches.  As our subscriber base continues to grow we face an increasing risk that Internet service providers or email applications may block bulk email transmissions or otherwise experience technical difficulties that result in our inability to successfully deliver emails to our subscribers. Third parties may also block our emails as spam, impose restrictions on, or start to charge for, the delivery of emails through their email systems.  Without the ability to email these subscribers, we have limited means of inducing subscribers to return to our websites and applications and to utilize our services. Due to the importance of email to our business, any disruptions or restrictions on the distribution or receipt of emails or increase in the associated costs could materially and adversely affect our business and results of operations.
