NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited, dollars in thousands, except per-share amounts)

1. PRINCIPAL BUSINESS ACTIVITY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying financial statements present the financial results of Majesco Entertainment Company and Majesco Europe Limited, its wholly-owned subsidiary, (together, “Majesco” or the “Company”) on a consolidated basis.

The Company is a provider of video game products primarily for the, casual-game consumer. It publishes video games for almost all major current generation interactive entertainment hardware platforms, including Nintendo’s DS, 3DS, Wii and WiiU, Sony’s PlayStation 3 and 4, or PS3 and PS4, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Xbox One and the personal computer, or PC. It sells its products through two sales channels, retail and digital. It sells to large retail chains, specialty retail stores, video game rental outlets and distributors. It also publishes games for numerous digital platforms such as Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, or PSN and Steam, and, prior to 2014, iOS and Android mobile devices and online platforms.

Its video game titles are targeted at various demographics at a range of price points. Due to the larger budget requirements for developing and marketing premium console titles for core gamers, it has focused on publishing more lower-cost games targeting casual-game consumers and independent game developer fans. In some instances, its titles are based on licenses of well-known properties and, in other cases, original properties. It enters into agreements with content providers and video game development studios for the creation of our video games.

Its operations involve similar products and customers worldwide. These products are developed and sold domestically and internationally. The Company is centrally managed and our chief operating decision makers, the chief executive and other officers, use consolidated and other financial information supplemented by sales information by product category, major product title and platform for making operational decisions and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, it operates in a single segment.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. Accordingly, they do not include all information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The Company’s financial results are impacted by the seasonality of the retail selling season and the timing of the release of new titles. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the entire fiscal year. The balance sheet at October 31, 2014 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended October 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form 10-K on January 29, 2015.

Reverse Stock Split. In 2013, the Company received a notification letter from the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) notifying it that it was not in compliance with its $1.00 minimum bid price requirement because the bid price for the Company’s common stock closed below $1.00 over the prior 30 consecutive business days. To regain compliance with this requirement, we completed a reverse stock split, which was effected on June 13, 2014 at a ratio of one-for-seven with no change in par value. All share information presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q gives effect to the reverse stock split.

Going Concern Basis. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has suffered losses that raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. As of April 30, 2015, management believes that there may not be sufficient capital resources from operations and existing financing arrangements in order to meet operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next twelve months. Accordingly, the Company is evaluating various alternatives, including reducing operating expenses and personnel costs, securing additional financing for future business activities and other strategic alternatives including a sale or merger of the Company. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to generate the level of operating revenues in its business plan, or if additional sources of financing will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If no additional sources of financing are available, it could have a material effect on future operating prospects.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation.  The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary located in the United Kingdom. Significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Prior to the November 2014 sale of its equity investment, the Company had 50% of the voting control of GMS Entertainment Limited (“GMS”) and the right to appoint one-half of the directors of GMS. Accordingly, the Company accounted for GMS on the equity method as a corporate joint venture.

Revenue Recognition. The Company recognizes revenue upon the shipment of its products when: (1) title and the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred; (2) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (3) there are no continuing obligations to the customer; and (4) the collection of related accounts receivable is probable. Certain products are sold to customers with a street date (the earliest date these products may be resold by retailers). Revenue for sales of these products is not recognized prior to their street date. Some of the Company’s software products provide limited online features at no additional cost to the consumer. Generally, such features have been considered to be incidental to the Company’s overall product offerings and an inconsequential deliverable. Accordingly, the Company does not defer any revenue related to products containing these limited online features. However, in instances where online features or additional functionality is considered a substantive deliverable in addition to the software product, such characteristics will be taken into account when applying the Company’s revenue recognition policy.

The Company generally sells its products on a no-return basis, although in certain instances, the Company provides price protection or other allowances on certain unsold products. Price protection, when granted and applicable, allows customers a partial credit against amounts they owe the Company with respect to merchandise unsold by them. Revenue is recognized, and accounts receivable is presented, net of estimates of these allowances.

The Company estimates potential future product price protection and other allowances related to current period product revenue. The Company analyzes historical experience, current sell through of retailer inventory of the Company’s products, current trends in the video game market, the overall economy, changes in customer demand and acceptance of the Company’s products and other related factors when evaluating the adequacy of price protection and other allowances.

Sales incentives or other consideration given by the Company to customers that are considered adjustments of the selling price of its products, such as rebates and product placement fees, are reflected as reductions of revenue. Sales incentives and other consideration that represent costs incurred by the Company for benefits received, such as the appearance of the Company’s products in a customer’s national circular ad, are reflected as selling and marketing expenses, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 605-50, Customer Payments and Incentives.

In addition, some of the Company’s software products are sold exclusively as downloads of digital content for which the consumer takes possession of the digital content for a fee. Revenue from product downloads is generally recognized when the download is made available (assuming all other recognition criteria are met).

When the Company operates hosted online games in which players can play for free and purchase virtual goods for use in the games, it recognizes revenues from the sale of virtual goods as service revenues over the estimated period in which players use the game. It currently estimates these periods of use to be three to four months. The Company periodically assesses its estimates for this period of use and future increases or decreases in these estimates and adjusts recognized revenues prospectively. The Company also recognizes advertising revenue as ads are served. The Company has not earned significant revenue to date related to its online games.

The Company records revenue for distribution agreements where it is acting as an agent as defined by ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, Subtopic 45, Principal Agent Considerations, on a net basis. When the Company enters into license or distribution agreements that provide for multiple copies of games in exchange for guaranteed amounts, revenue is recognized in accordance with the terms of the agreements, generally upon delivery of a master copy, assuming our performance obligations are complete and all other recognition criteria are met, or as per-copy royalties are earned on sales of games.

In certain instances, customers and distributors provide the Company with cash advances on their orders. These advances are then applied against future sales to these customers. Advances are classified as advances from customers and deferred revenue in the accompanying balance sheets.

Inventory.  Inventory is stated at the lower of cost as determined by the first-in, first-out method, or market. The Company estimates the net realizable value of slow-moving inventory on a title-by-title basis and charges the excess of cost over net realizable value to cost of sales. Such estimates may change and additional charges may be incurred until the related inventory items are sold or otherwise disposed of.

Capitalized Software Development Costs and License Fees. Software development costs include fees in the form of milestone payments made to independent software developers and licensors. Software development costs are capitalized once technological feasibility of a product is established and management expects such costs to be recoverable against future revenues. For products where proven game engine technology exists, this may occur early in the development cycle. Technological feasibility is evaluated on a product-by-product basis. Amounts related to software development that are not capitalized are charged immediately to product research and development costs. Commencing upon a related product’s release, capitalized costs are amortized to cost of sales based upon the higher of (i) the ratio of current revenue to total projected revenue or (ii) straight-line charges over the expected marketable life of the product.

Prepaid license fees represent license fees to owners for the use of their intellectual property rights in the development of the Company’s products. Minimum guaranteed royalty payments for intellectual property licenses are initially recorded as an asset (prepaid license fees) and a current liability (accrued royalties payable) at the contractual amount upon execution of the contract or when specified milestones or events occur and when no significant performance remains with the licensor. Licenses are expensed to cost of sales at the higher of (i) the contractual royalty rate based on actual sales or (ii) an effective rate based upon total projected revenue related to such license. Capitalized software development costs and prepaid license fees are classified as non-current if they relate to titles for which the Company estimates the release date to be more than one year from the balance sheet date.

The amortization period for capitalized software development costs and prepaid license fees is usually no longer than one year from the initial release of the product. If actual revenues or revised forecasted revenues fall below the initial forecasted revenue for a particular license, the charge to cost of sales may be larger than anticipated in any given quarter. The recoverability of capitalized software development costs and prepaid license fees is evaluated quarterly based on the expected performance of the specific products to which the costs relate. When, in management’s estimate, future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover previously capitalized costs, the Company expenses these capitalized costs to “cost of sales-software development costs and license fees,” in the period such a determination is made. These expenses may be incurred prior to a game’s release for games that have been developed. If a game is cancelled prior to completion of development and never released to market, the amount is expensed to operating costs and expenses. If the Company was required to write off licenses, due to changes in market conditions or product acceptance, its results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Costs of developing online free-to-play social games, including payments to third-party developers, are expensed as research and development expenses. Revenue from these games is largely dependent on players’ future purchasing behavior in the game and currently the Company cannot reliably project that future net cash flows from developed games will exceed related development costs.

Prepaid license fees and milestone payments made to the Company’s third party developers are typically considered non-refundable advances against the total compensation they can earn based upon the sales performance of the products. Any additional royalty or other compensation earned beyond the milestone payments is expensed to cost of sales as incurred.

Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities or the disclosure of gain or loss contingencies at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Among the more significant estimates included in these financial statements are price protection and customer allowances, the valuation of inventory, the recoverability of advance payments for capitalized software development costs and intellectual property licenses, and the valuation allowances for deferred tax benefits. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Loss Per Share. Basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Diluted loss per share excludes the potential impact of common stock options, unvested shares of restricted stock and outstanding common stock purchase warrants because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

Commitments and Contingencies.  We are subject to claims and litigation in the ordinary course of our business. We record a liability for commitments and contingencies when the amount is both probable and reasonably estimable.

Concentrations.  The Company develops and distributes video game software for proprietary platforms under licenses from Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft, which must be periodically renewed. The Company’s agreements with these manufacturers also grant them certain control over the supply and manufacturing of the Company’s products. In addition, for the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, sales of the Company’s Zumba Fitness games accounted for approximately 47% and 30% of net revenues, respectively, and for the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, sales of the Company’s Zumba Fitness games accounted for approximately 48% and 69% of net revenues, respectively. Revenue from the licensing of packaged software in Europe accounted for approximately 12% of total revenue in the six months ended April 30, 2014.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements.

Revenue. In May 2014, the FASB issued an Accounting Standards Update creating a new Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which broadly establishes new standards for the recognition of certain revenue and updates related disclosure requirements. The update becomes effective for the Company on November 1, 2017. The Company is reviewing the potential impact of the statement on its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

3. FAIR VALUE

The table below segregates all financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis into the most appropriate level within the fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used to determine the fair value at the measurement date.

Prior to the exchange transaction described in Note 11, the Company had outstanding warrants that contained re-pricing provisions for “down-round” issuances and other events not indexed to the Company’s own stock (see note 11) and were classified as liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The Company recognized these warrants as liabilities at their fair value and re-measured them through the date of their exchange in April 2105. ASC 820 Fair Value Measurement provides requirements for disclosure of liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in periods subsequent to the initial recognition.

The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant liabilities.  The estimated fair values were determined using a binomial option pricing model based on various assumptions.  The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect estimated fair value at each period end, with any decrease or increase in the estimated fair value being recorded in other income or expense accordingly, as adjustments to the fair value of derivative liabilities.  Various factors are considered in the pricing models the Company uses to value the warrants, including the Company’s current common stock price, the remaining life of the warrants, the volatility of the Company’s common stock price, and the risk-free interest rate.  In addition, as of the valuation dates, management assessed the probabilities of future financing and other re-pricing events in the binominal valuation models.

A summary of the changes to the Company’s warrant liability, as measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3), for the three and six months ended April 30, 2015 is presented below:

Assumptions used to determine the fair value of the warrants in the three and six months ended April 30, 2015 were:

The carrying value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, customer credits, due to distribution partners and advances from customers are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of their short-term maturity.

4. DUE FROM FACTOR AND CUSTOMER CREDITS, NET

Due from factor and customer credits, net, consists of the following:

Outstanding accounts receivable sold to the factor as of April 30, 2015 and October 31, 2014 for which the Company retained credit risk amounted to $98 and $164, respectively. As of April 30, 2015 and October 31, 2014, there were no allowances for uncollectible accounts. Allowances include provisions for customer payments and incentives deductible in future periods. As of April 30, 2015, customer allowances and provisions for price protection exceeded outstanding accounts receivable sold to the Company’s factor. The excess is classified as a liability in the accompanying balance sheet.

5. ACCOUNTS AND OTHER RECEIVABLES, NET

Accounts and other receivables, net, consist of the following:

6. INVENTORIES

Inventories consist of the following:

7. PREPAID EXPENSES AND OTHER CURRENT ASSETS

9. INVESTMENT IN GMS ENTERTAINMENT LIMITED

In the fiscal year ended October 31, 2013, the Company formed GMS, an Isle of Man company, with a third party to pursue online casino gaming. The Company accounts for GMS on the equity method as a corporate joint venture. In the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, the Company’s share of GMS’s net loss was $166 and $413, respectively, which is included in loss from equity method investment in the statement of operations. In the fiscal year ended October 31, 2014 the Company recorded operating losses and impairments reducing the carrying amount of its investment in GMS to $0 and its advances receivable from GMS to $250 as of October 31, 2014. In November 2014, the Company sold its investment in GMS, including its preferred stock investment and receivables from working capital advances to its joint venture partner, and received $250 in cash.

10. ACCOUNTS PAYABLE AND ACCRUED EXPENSES; DUE TO DISTRIBUTION PARTNERS

Accounts payable and accrued expenses consist of the following:

During the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recognized a gains on the extinguishment of liabilities related to certain accounts payable balances and claims for license fees and services that the Company determined would never be paid because they were no longer being pursued for payment and had passed the statute of limitations. In addition, the Company modified certain of its agreements with licensors, distribution partners and other vendors which reduced Company liabilities, generally in exchange for reduced or terminated license or distribution rights and current cash payment.

Salaries and other compensation include accrued payroll expense, accrued incentive compensation and employer 401K plan contributions.

Due to distribution partners represents amounts due to publishers for games distributed by the Company as an agent.

11. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Private Placement

On December 17, 2014, pursuant to subscription agreements (the “December Subscription Agreements”) entered into with certain accredited investors (the “December Investors”) the Company completed a private placement of $6,000 of units (the “December Units”) at a purchase price of $0.68 per Unit, with each December Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s 0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (each a “Series A Preferred Share”) and a five-year warrant (each a “December Warrant”) to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.68 per share (such issuance and sale, the “December Private Placement”). The December Warrants were subsequently exchanged for shares of the Company’s 0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Shares” and shares of the Company’s common stock (see below).

The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of such Series A Preferred Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Series A Preferred Share, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price. The stated value of each Preferred Share is $0.68 and the initial conversion price is $0.68 per share, each subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events. In addition, in the event the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to issue or sell, shares of its common stock at a per share price that is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to certain exceptions. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Series A Certificate of Designations”), the Company is prohibited from incurring debt or liens, or entering into new financing transactions without the consent of the lead investor (as defined in the Subscription Agreements) as long as any of the Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding. The Series A Preferred Shares bear no interest.

The holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall vote together with the holders of common stock on all matters on an as if converted basis, subject to certain limitations described in the Series A Certificate of Designations and the ownership limitations described below, and shall not vote as a separate class. At no time may all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Shares be converted if the number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock owned by the holder at such time, the number of shares of common stock which would result in such Holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules thereunder) more than 4.99% of all of the common stock outstanding at such time; provided, however, that the holder may waive the 4.99% limitation at which time he may not own more than 9.99% beneficial ownership.

Prior to the exchange transaction described below, the December Warrants were exercisable at any time at a price of $0.68 per share, subject to adjustment, and expired five years from the date of issuance. The holders could exercise the December Warrants for shares of common stock on a cashless basis if there was no effective registration statement, or no current prospectus available for resale of the warrant shares. The December Warrants were subject to certain adjustments upon certain actions by the Company as outlined in the December Warrants, including, for twenty-four months following the initial issuance date, the issuance or sale, or deemed issuance or sale, by the Company of shares of its common stock at a per share price that is less than the exercise price then in effect.

The proceeds of the offering and certificates representing the Series A Preferred Shares and December Warrants underlying the December Units issued in the offering were deposited into an escrow account (the “December Escrow Amount”) with Signature Bank as the escrow agent (the “December Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “December Escrow Agreement”) dated December 17, 2014, by and between the Company, the lead investor in the unit financing and the December Escrow Agent, and certificates representing the December Warrants and a record of the Series A Preferred Shares sold in the December Private Placement were deposited and recorded with the Company’s corporate secretary (the “December Securities Escrow Agent”). Upon the closing of the December Private Placement on December 17, 2014 (such date, the “December Closing Date”), $1,000 of the December Escrow Amount was released by the December Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of $1,000 of December Units by the December Securities Escrow Agent to the December Investors. Effective upon the approval of the Company’s stockholders on March 30, 2015, in one or multiple tranches, the remaining $5,000 may be released by the December Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of $5,000 of December Units by the December Securities Escrow Agent to the December Investors, if either, (i) the lead investor has approved the release, (ii) the approval of the requisite number of December Investors has been obtained, (iii) the Company has executed definitive binding documents for certain transactions, as described in the December Subscription Agreements, and such transaction(s) are to close contemporaneously with the release, following approval by the Company’s stockholders or (iv) the following conditions are present: (a) nine months has elapsed from the December Closing Date and release is approved by each of the directors appointed at closing (being the non-continuing directors); (b) no subsequent release of the December Escrow Amount has been consummated; and (c) no more than $1,000 is released (the “December Release Conditions”). In the event that on and as of the twelve month anniversary of the December Closing Date none of the December Release Conditions have been satisfied, the December Escrow Agent shall return $5,000 to the December Investors, without interest or deduction, and the December Securities Escrow Agent shall return the $5,000 of December Units being held in escrow to the Company for cancellation.

The Company received net proceeds of $801 for the December Units released by the December Escrow Agent, net of offering costs, and has accounted for each of the Series A Preferred Shares released by the December Escrow Agent, the December Warrants released by the December Escrow Agent and the Series A Preferred Shares and December Warrants remaining in escrow as freestanding instruments.

The Company has evaluated the guidance ASC 480-10 Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40 Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity to determine the appropriate classification of the instruments. Prior to the exchange described below, the exercise price of the released December Warrants could be adjusted downward if the Company issued securities at a price below the initial exercise price and in certain other circumstances outside the control of the Company and therefore contain contingent settlement terms not indexed solely to the Company’s own shares of common stock. Accordingly, $603 of proceeds were recorded as a derivative liability representing the fair value of the December Warrants released from escrow at issuance as described in Note 3 and $120 of offering costs allocated to the December Warrants were expensed. As a result of the allocations, described above, the Series A Preferred Shares released were deemed to have a beneficial conversion feature at issuance amounting to $397, which was recorded in stockholders’ equity and immediately charged as a dividend in determining net loss attributable to common stockholders.

The remaining net proceeds of $318 were allocated to the Series A Preferred Shares. The Series A Preferred Shares do not represent an unconditional obligation to be settled in a variable number of shares of common stock, are not redeemable and do not contain fixed or indexed conversion provisions similar to debt instruments. Accordingly, the Series A Preferred Shares are considered equity hosts and recorded in stockholders’ equity. As of April 30, 2015, the Series A Preferred Shares released by the Company are convertible into 1,470,588 shares of common stock based on the current conversion rate.

Upon stockholder approval in March 2015 of full conversion of the escrowed December Warrants, the Company recorded a warrant liability and a discount on the Series A Preferred Shares amounting to $3,162, based on the estimated fair value of the warrants. The Company re-measured the fair value of the December Warrants through the date of their exchange and recorded related losses in its statement of operations. In the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recorded a change in fair value of $768 and $1,547, respectively, related to the increase in the fair value of the December Warrants during the periods. In addition, upon shareholder approval of the full conversion of the escrowed Series A Preferred Shares, the carrying value of such Series A Preferred Shares, net of proceeds remaining in escrow was reclassified to paid-in capital. The Company recorded a beneficial conversion feature and a discount on the Series A Preferred Shares amounting to $1,838, which was immediately recognized as a deemed dividend in determining net loss attributable to common shareholders. As of April 30, 2015, the Series A Preferred Shares remaining in escrow are convertible into 7,352,939 shares of common stock based on the current conversion rate. The Company may record additional deemed dividends for any unamortized discounts on its Series A Preferred Shares if such shares are converted or escrowed proceeds are returned to holders.

In connection with the December Private Placement, the Company also entered into separate Registration Rights Agreements with each December Investor, (as amended on January 30, 2015 and March 30, 2015, the “December Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to use its best efforts to file by June 30, 2015 a registration statement covering the resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares and December Warrants and to maintain its effectiveness until all such securities have been sold or may be sold without restriction. In the event a registration statement covering such shares of common stock is not effective, the Company is required to pay to the December Investors on a monthly basis an amount equal to 1% of the investors’ investment.

Exchange

On April 30, 2015, pursuant to warrant exchange agreements, the Company retired the 8,823,529 December Warrants issued in the December Private Placement, including both the December Warrants released to the December Investors on the December Closing Date and the December Warrants subject to the escrow conditions, in exchange for shares of the Company's common stock, or shares of 0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Shares”), in lieu of shares of common stock equal, on an as-converted basis, to the number of shares of common stock that would have otherwise been received by the holder, if such issuance would result in the recipient holder exceeding certain thresholds. An aggregate of 6,302,525 shares of common stock, which amount includes the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares, were issuable in connection with the exchange agreements (such exchange of December Warrants for Series B Preferred Shares, the “Exchange”). Upon exchange, the contingent–conversion features of the December Warrants expired and the carrying value of the warrant liability of $5,312 was reclassified to paid-in capital and allocated to the Series B Preferred Shares and the common shares distributed.

The Series B Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of the of such Series B Preferred Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Series B Preferred Shares, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price. The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, such holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%.  Subject to such beneficial ownership limitations, each holder is entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company on an as converted basis.  Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Series B Certificate of Designations”), the Series B Preferred Shares will rank junior to the Series A Preferred Shares and will bear no interest. All of the convertible preferred shares do not represent an unconditional obligation to be settled in a variable number of shares, are not redeemable and do not contain fixed or indexed conversion provisions similar to debt instruments. Accordingly, the convertible preferred shares are considered equity hosts and recorded in stockholders’ equity.

A summary of the changes in the Company’s additional paid-in capital in the six months ended April 30, 2015 is as follows:

12. STOCK BASED COMPENSATION ARRANGEMENTS

Stock-based compensation expense in the three and six months ended April 30, 2015 amounted to $168 and $388, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense in the three and six months ended April 30, 2014 amounted to $270 and $643, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense is recorded in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

A summary of the Company’s stock option activity in the six months ended April 30, 2015 is presented below:

In the six months ended April 30, 2015, the Company granted options to purchase 301,998 shares of common stock to certain directors and employees, which vest upon the achievement of certain performance conditions related to acquisition or financing events or a change of control. The options have an exercise price of $0.68 per share and a term of five years and may be exercised on a cashless basis. The Company accrues compensation cost for these options based upon its assessment of the probable outcome of the performance conditions, including the estimated service period. Certain stock options held by former employees and directors are classified as other liabilities.

A summary of the Company’s restricted stock activity in the six months ended April 30, 2015 is presented below:

Restricted shares granted during the period include 300,000 shares issued to a consultant and 88,002 shares issued to employees and directors that vest only upon the completion certain performance conditions. The shares issued to employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 718 Compensation-Stock Compensation and measured on the date of grant and recorded as an expense over the expected period of performance. The shares issued to non-employees are accounted for in accordance with ASC 505-50 Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees and will be measured and recorded as an operating expense in the period in which the performance condition occurs. The company considers vesting of the shares to be probable within a two year period. The cost of the 300,000 consultant shares is recognizable in future periods upon the completion of a transaction at their then-current fair value.

13. INCOME TAXES

Due to the Company’s history of losses and uncertainty of future taxable income, a valuation allowance sufficient to fully offset net operating losses and other deferred tax assets has been established. The valuation allowance will be maintained until sufficient positive evidence exists to support a conclusion that a valuation allowance is not necessary. The Company’s effective tax rate for the three and six months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014 differed from the expected U.S. federal statutory rate primarily due to the change in the valuation allowance. As a result of the Company’s private placements during the current fiscal year, a change of ownership under IRS section 382 has likely occurred and, accordingly, the Company’s federal net operating loss carryforwards may be severely limited. The Company has not completed its calculations of any such limitations.

14. LOSS PER SHARE

The Company incurred a net loss for the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, therefore potentially dilutive securities were not included in basic and diluted shares outstanding due to their antidilutive effect.

Options, warrants, restricted shares and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred shares to acquire 9,630,719 and 675,159 shares of common stock were not included in the weighted average shares outstanding calculation of diluted loss per common share for the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. Options, warrants, restricted shares and shares issuable upon conversion of preferred shares to acquire 5,923,344 and 491,702 shares of common stock were not included in the weighted average shares outstanding calculation of diluted loss per common share for the six months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

The table below provides shares issuable under potentially dilutive securities that were not included in EPS due to their dilutive effect: total potentially dilutive shares outstanding, including those that are anti-dilutive, at April 30, 2015:

15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contingencies

On September 20, 2012, a complaint for patent infringement was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia by Intelligent Verification Systems, LLC against Microsoft Corporation and the Company. The complaint alleges that Kinect and certain of the Company’s Kinect games, including Zumba Fitness Rush, infringe the plaintiff’s patents relating to biometric facial recognition and facial expression recognition technology. Intelligent Verification Systems is seeking injunctive relief and monetary damages of approximately $2,700 for the alleged infringement. In April 2015, the parties, by stipulation, agreed to entry of an order for summary judgment in favor of defendants, in the United Stated District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia following a Court ruling that recommended excluding plaintiff’s damages expert. The Court is expected to enter an order for summary judgment in favor of the defendants. We have been informed that plaintiff intends to appeal the decision of the Court to exclude its damages expert. The Company intends, in conjunction with Microsoft, to continue to defend itself against the claim. The Company cannot currently estimate a potential range of loss if the claim against the Company is successful.

On February 26, 2015, a complaint for patent infringement was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas by Richard Baker, an individual residing in Australia, against the Company, along with Microsoft, Nintendo and a number of other game publisher defendants. The complaint alleges that the Company’s Zumba Fitness Kinect game infringed plaintiff’s patents in motion tracking technology. The plaintiff claims he has been damaged by the Company in the amount of $1,296. The Company intends to defend itself against the claim. The Company cannot currently estimate a potential range of loss if the claim against the Company is successful.

In addition to the items above, the Company at times may be a party to claims and suits in the ordinary course of business. We record a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company has not recorded a liability with respect to the matters above. While the Company believes that it has valid defenses with respect to the legal matter pending and intends to vigorously defend the matter above, given the uncertainty surrounding litigation and our inability to assess the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, it is possible that the resolution of the matter could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Commitments

The Company routinely issues purchase orders and enters into short-term commitments in the ordinary course of business. As of April 30, 2015, commitments under development agreements amounted to $719.

16. WORKFORCE REDUCTION

Beginning in October 2014 and continuing during the six months ended April 30, 2015 the Company made reductions in its workforce affecting development, sales and marketing and other personnel.

Changes in the Company’s accrued liabilities for workforce reduction costs in the three and six months ended April 30, 2015 were as follows:

17. RELATED PARTIES

In the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, the Company had an agreement with Morris Sutton, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman Emeritus, under which he provided services as a consultant for a monthly retainer of $13. The agreement was terminated in October 2014. For the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, consulting fees incurred under the agreement amounted to $38 and $75, respectively. The Company purchases a portion of its Zumba belt accessories from a supplier, on terms equal to those of another supplier. The Company estimates that Morris Sutton and another relative of Jesse Sutton, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, earned compensation from such supplier of approximately $49 and $59 in the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, respectively, based on the value of the Company’s purchases.

In the three and six months ended April 30, 2014, the Company had an agreement with a Board member under which he provided specified strategic consulting services for a monthly retainer of $10. The agreement was terminated in October 2014. For the three months and six months ended April 30, 2014, consulting fees incurred under the agreement amounted to $30 and $60, respectively.

In January 2015, the Company entered into an agreement with Equity Stock Transfer for transfer agent services. A Board member of the Company is a co-founder and chief executive officer of Equity Stock Transfer. Fees under the agreement were $3 and $5 in the three and six months ended April 30, 2015, respectively.

18. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On May 15, 2015 (the “May Closing Date”), the Company closed its sale of $5,050 of units (the “May Units”), pursuant to separate subscription agreements (the “May Subscription Agreements”) with accredited investors (the “May Investors”) entered into on April 29, 2015, at a purchase price of $1.20 per Unit.  Each May Unit consists of one share (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, provided that, if the issuance of any such Shares would have resulted in the recipient May Investor owning in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, then such May Investor could elect to receive shares of the Company’s 0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Shares”) in lieu of Shares that are, on an as converted basis, equal to one share of common stock for every May Unit purchased, and a three-year warrant (the “May Warrants”) to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share (such sale and issuance, the “May Private Placement”).  Of the $5,050 of Units sold, approximately $3,100 consisted of Series C Preferred Shares.

The Series C Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of such Series C Preferred Shares, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Series C Preferred Shares, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price.  The stated value of each Series C Preferred Share is $120.00 per share, and the initial conversion price is $1.20 per share, each subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events.  In addition, in the event the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to issue or sell, shares of common stock at a per share price that is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to certain exceptions and provided that the conversion price may not be reduced to less than $0.86, unless and until such time as the Company obtains shareholder approval to allow for a lower conversion price.  The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, such May Investor would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%.  Subject to the beneficial ownership limitations discussed previously, each holder is entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company, and shall have the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of such holder’s Series C Preferred Shares.  Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Series C Certificate of Designations”), the Series C Preferred Shares bear no interest and shall rank junior to the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares but senior to the Company’s Series B Preferred Shares.

The May Warrants are exercisable, at any time, following the date the May Warrants are issued, at a price of $1.40 per share, subject to adjustment, and expire three years from the date of issuance. The holders may, subject to certain limitations, exercise the May Warrants on a cashless basis. The Company is prohibited from effecting an exercise of any May Warrant to the extent that, as a result of any such exercise, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of such May Warrant, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%.  In addition, since the May Private Placement was undertaken pursuant to the stockholder approval previously received, pursuant to which the maximum number of securities approved for issuance was 5,000,000, the May Warrants also include a provision that prevent their full exercise unless and until further stockholder approval is received to exceed such issuance amount.  The May Warrants are also subject to certain adjustments upon certain actions by the Company as outlined in the May Warrants.

The offering was made pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).  On the May Closing Date the Company entered into separate registration rights agreements (the “May Registration Rights Agreement”) with each of the May Investors, pursuant to which the Company will undertake to file a registration statement to register the Shares and the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares, within thirty days following the May Closing Date, to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within ninety days of the filing day and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all of such shares of common stock have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144.  In the event the Company fails to file, or obtain effectiveness of, such registration statement with the given period of time, the Company will be obligated to pay liquidated damages to the May Investors for every thirty days during which such filing is not made and/or effectiveness obtained, such fee being subject to certain exceptions.

The proceeds of the May Private Placement were deposited into an escrow account (the “May Escrow Amount”) with Signature Bank, as escrow agent (the “May Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “May Escrow Agreement”), entered into by and between the Company, the lead investor (as defined in the May Subscription Agreements) and the May Escrow Agent, and certificates representing the May Warrants and a record of the Shares and Series C Preferred Shares, sold in the May Private Placement were deposited and recorded with the Company’s corporate secretary (the “May Securities Escrow Agent”) to be held in escrow. On the May Closing Date, twenty percent (20%) of the May Escrow Amount ($1,010) was released by the May Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of twenty percent (20%) of May Units by the May Securities Escrow Agent to the May Investors.  Following the May Closing Date, in one or multiple tranches, the remaining eighty percent (80%) of the May Escrow Amount ($4,040) will be released by the May Escrow Agent to the Company and the corresponding percentage of May Units shall be released to the May Investors, provided that, either, (i) the lead investor has approved the release or (ii) the Company has satisfied certain conditions precedent as described in the May Subscription Agreements.

Overview

We are a provider of video game products primarily for the, casual-game consumer. We publish video games for almost all major current generation interactive entertainment hardware platforms, including Nintendo’s DS, 3DS, Wii and WiiU, Sony’s PlayStation 3 and 4, or PS3 and PS4, Microsoft’s Xbox 360 and Xbox One and the personal computer, or PC. We sell our products through two sales channels, retail and digital. We sell to large retail chains, specialty retail stores, video game rental outlets and distributors. We also publish games for numerous digital platforms such as Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network, or PSN and Steam, and, prior to 2014, iOS and Android mobile devices and online platforms.

Our video game titles are targeted at various demographics at a range of price points. Due to the larger budget requirements for developing and marketing premium console titles for core gamers, we have focused on publishing more lower-cost games targeting casual-game consumers and independent game developer fans. In some instances, our titles are based on licenses of well-known properties and, in other cases, original properties. We enter into agreements with content providers and video game development studios for the creation of our video games.

Our operations involve similar products and customers worldwide. These products are developed and sold domestically and internationally. The Company is centrally managed and our chief operating decision makers, the chief executive and other officers, use consolidated and other financial information supplemented by sales information by product category, major product title and platform for making operational decisions and assessing financial performance. Accordingly, we operate in a single segment.

Since October 2014, we have implemented reductions of our workforce to reduce our fixed costs. The reductions include development and game-testing, selling and marketing, and support personnel. We are currently not developing any significant new games for release in fiscal 2015 and are evaluating strategic alternatives to maximize Company value, including the merger with or acquisition of a new business, which may be in a different business than our current and historical operations.

In December 2014 and May 2015, we completed private placements of units and received aggregate proceeds of approximately $11.0 million. We have received approximately $2.0 million of the proceeds from the private placement. The release from escrow of the remaining $9.0 million of proceeds is subject to the completion of a “Qualified Transaction” or approval of the lead investor in the private placements. A Qualified Transaction may involve the acquisition of a business that is not related to our current operations described in this report (See “Liquidity and Capital Resources – Private Placements”).

Video Game Products

Net Revenues.  Our revenues are principally derived from sales of our video games. We provide video games primarily for the mass market and casual-game player. Our revenues are recognized net of estimated provisions for price protection and other allowances. When we act as an agent in the distribution of games developed by others, we recognize revenue net of the share of revenue due to the developer in the form of wholesale price, royalties and/or distribution fees.

Cost of Sales.  Cost of sales consists of product costs and amortization and impairment of software development costs and license fees. A significant component of our cost of sales of packaged games is product costs. Product costs are comprised primarily of manufacturing and packaging costs of the disc or cartridge media, royalties to the platform manufacturer and manufacturing and packaging costs of peripherals. Commencing upon the related product’s release, capitalized software development and intellectual property license costs are amortized to cost of sales.

Gross Profit.  Gross profit is the excess of net revenues over product costs and amortization and impairment of software development and license fees. Development and license fees incurred to produce video games are generally incurred up front and amortized to cost of sales. The recovery of these costs and total gross profit is dependent upon achieving a certain sales volume, which varies by title.

Product Research and Development Expenses.  Product research and development expenses have historically related principally to our cost of supervision of third party video game developers, testing new products, development of social games and conducting quality assurance evaluations during the development cycle that are not allocated to games for which technological feasibility has been established. Costs incurred have been primarily employee-related, may include equipment, and are not allocated to cost of sales. Ongoing research and development activities have been substantially reduced since fiscal 2014.

Selling and Marketing Expenses.  Selling and marketing expenses consist of marketing and promotion expenses, sometimes including television advertising, the cost of shipping products to customers and related employee costs. Credits to retailers for trade advertising are a component of these expenses.

General and Administrative Expenses.  General and administrative expenses primarily represent employee related costs, including stock compensation, for corporate executive and support staff, general office expenses, professional fees and various other overhead charges. Professional fees, including legal and accounting expenses, typically represent one of the largest components of our general and administrative expenses. These fees are partially attributable to our required activities as a publicly traded company, such as SEC filings, and corporate- and business-development initiatives.

Interest and Financing Costs.  Interest and financing costs are directly attributable to our factoring and our purchase-order financing arrangements. Such costs include commitment fees and fees based upon the value of customer invoices factored.

Income Taxes.  Income taxes consists of our provision/(benefit) for income taxes, as affected by our net operating loss carryforwards. Future utilization of our net operating loss, or NOL, carryforwards may be subject to a substantial annual limitation due to the “change in ownership” provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The annual limitation may result in the expiration of NOL carryforwards before utilization. Due to our history of losses, a valuation allowance sufficient to fully offset our NOL and other deferred tax assets has been established under current accounting pronouncements, and this valuation allowance will be maintained unless sufficient positive evidence develops to support its reversal.

Seasonality and Variations in Interim Quarterly Results

Our quarterly net revenues, gross profit and operating income from sales of packaged software are impacted significantly by the seasonality of the retail selling season, and the timing of the release of new titles. Sales of our catalog and other products are generally higher in the first and fourth quarters of our fiscal year (ending January 31 and October 31, respectively) due to increased retail sales during the holiday season. Sales and gross profit as a percentage of sales also generally increase in quarters in which we release significant new titles because of increased sales volume as retailers make purchases to stock their shelves and meet initial demand for the new release. These quarters also benefit from the higher selling prices that we are able to achieve early in the product’s life cycle. Therefore, sales results in any one quarter are not necessarily indicative of expected results for subsequent quarters during the fiscal year.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of the financial condition and results of operations is based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP.

The preparation of these condensed consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and to the understanding of our financial results. The impact and any associated risks related to these policies on our business operations is discussed throughout management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations when such policies affect our reported and expected financial results.

Revenue Recognition.  We recognize revenue upon the shipment of our product when: (1) risks and rewards of ownership are transferred; (2) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (3) we have no continuing obligations to the customer; and (4) the collection of related accounts receivable is probable. Certain products are sold to customers with a street date (the earliest date these products may be resold by retailers). Revenue for sales of these products is not recognized prior to their street date. Some of our software products provide limited online features at no additional cost to the consumer. Generally, we have considered such features to be incidental to our overall product offerings and an inconsequential deliverable. Accordingly, we do not defer any revenue related to products containing these limited online features. However, in instances where online features or additional functionality is considered a substantive deliverable in addition to the software product, such characteristics will be taken into account when applying our revenue recognition policy. To date, the Company has not earned significant revenues from such features. In addition, some of our software products are sold exclusively as downloads of digital content for which the consumer takes possession of the digital content for a fee. Revenue from product downloads is generally recognized when the download is made available (assuming all other recognition criteria are met).

When we enter into license or distribution agreements that provide for multiple copies of games in exchange for guaranteed amounts, revenue is recognized in accordance with the terms of the agreements, generally upon delivery of a master copy, assuming our performance obligations are complete and all other recognition criteria are met, or as per-copy royalties are earned on sales of games.

Price Protection and Other Allowances.  We generally sell our products on a no-return basis, although in certain instances, we provide price protection or other allowances on certain unsold products in accordance with industry practices. Price protection, when granted and applicable, allows customers a partial credit with respect to merchandise unsold by them. Revenue is recognized net of estimates of these allowances. Sales incentives and other consideration that represent costs incurred by us for benefits received, such as the appearance of our products in a customer’s national circular advertisement, are generally reflected as selling and marketing expenses. We estimate potential future product price protection and other discounts related to current period product revenue. In addition, some of our software products are sold exclusively as downloads of digital content for which the consumer takes possession of the digital content for a fee. Revenue from product downloads is generally recognized when the download is made available (assuming all other recognition criteria are met).

Our provisions for price protection and other allowances fluctuate over periods as a result of a number of factors including analysis of historical experience, current sell-through of retailer inventory of our products, current trends in the interactive entertainment market, the overall economy, changes in customer demand and acceptance of our products and other related factors. Significant management judgments and estimates must be made and used in connection with establishing the allowance for returns and price protection in any accounting period. However, actual allowances granted could materially exceed our estimates as unsold products in the distribution channels are exposed to rapid changes in consumer preferences, market conditions, technological obsolescence due to new platforms, product updates or competing products. For example, the risk of requests for allowances may increase as consoles pass the midpoint of their lifecycle and an increasing number of competitive products heighten pricing and competitive pressures. Additionally, the reduction in the scope of our game operations and elimination of games in development for future release could have an impact on our relationship with retailers. While management believes it can make reliable estimates regarding these matters, these estimates are inherently subjective. Accordingly, if our estimates change, this will result in a change in our provisions, which would impact the net revenues and/or selling and marketing expenses we report. Fluctuations in the provisions reflected our estimates of future price protection based on the factors discussed above. We limit our exposure to credit risk by factoring a portion of our receivables to a third party that buys without recourse. For receivables that are not sold without recourse, we analyze our aged accounts receivables, payment history and other factors to make a determination if collection of receivables is likely, or a provision for uncollectible accounts is necessary.

Capitalized Software Development Costs and License Fees.  Software development costs include development fees, primarily in the form of milestone payments made to independent software developers. Software development costs are capitalized once technological feasibility of a product is established and management expects such costs to be recoverable against future revenues. For products where proven game engine technology exists, this may occur early in the development cycle. Technological feasibility is evaluated on a product-by-product basis. Amounts related to software development that are not capitalized are charged immediately to product research and development costs. Commencing upon a related product’s release capitalized software development costs are amortized to cost of sales based upon the higher of (i) the ratio of current revenue to total projected revenue or (ii) straight-line charges over the expected marketable life of the product.

Prepaid license fees represent license fees to holders for the use of their intellectual property rights in the development of our products. Minimum guaranteed royalty payments for intellectual property licenses are initially recorded as an asset (capitalized license fees) and a current liability (accrued royalties payable) at the contractual amount upon execution of the contract or when specified milestones or events occur and when no significant performance commitment remains with the licensor. Licenses are expensed to cost of sales at the higher of (i) the contractual royalty rate based on actual sales or (ii) an effective rate based upon total projected revenue related to such license. Capitalized software development costs are classified as non-current if they relate to titles for which we estimate the release date to be more than one year from the balance sheet date.

The amortization period for capitalized software development costs and license fees is usually no longer than one year from the initial release of the product. If actual revenues or revised forecasted revenues fall below the initial forecasted revenue for a particular license, the charge to cost of sales may be larger than anticipated in any given quarter. The recoverability of capitalized software development costs and license fees is evaluated quarterly based on the expected performance of the specific products to which the costs relate.

When, in management’s estimate, future cash flows will not be sufficient to recover previously capitalized costs, we expense these capitalized costs to cost of sales — loss on impairment of capitalized software development costs and license fees – future releases, in the period such a determination is made. These expenses may be incurred prior to a game’s release. If a game is cancelled and never released to market, the amount is expensed to operating costs and expenses – loss on impairment of capitalized software development costs and license fees – cancelled games. If we were required to write off licenses or capitalized software development costs, due to changes in market conditions or product acceptance, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

License fees and milestone payments made to our third party developers are typically considered non-refundable advances against the total compensation they can earn based upon the sales performance of the products. Any additional royalty or other compensation earned beyond the milestone payments is expensed to cost of sales as incurred.

We expense as research and development costs associated with the development of mobile and social games when we cannot reliably project that future net cash flows from developed games will exceed related development costs. These games have not earned significant revenues to date and we are continuing to evaluate alternatives for future development and monetization.

Inventory.  Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out method. We estimate the net realizable value of slow-moving inventory on a title-by-title basis and charge the excess of cost over net realizable value to cost of sales. Some of our inventory items are packaged with accessories. The purchase of these accessories involves longer lead times and minimum purchase amounts, which may require us to maintain higher levels of inventory than for other games. Therefore, these items have a higher risk of obsolescence, which we review periodically based on inventory and sales levels.

Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation.  Stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense over the vesting period. Determining the fair value of stock-based awards at the grant date requires judgment, including, in the case of stock option awards, estimating expected stock volatility. In addition, judgment is also required in estimating the amount of stock-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. If actual results differ significantly from these estimates, stock-based compensation expense and our results of operations could be materially impacted.

Accounting for Preferred Stock and Warrant transactions.  The Company issued units consisting of Series A Preferred Shares and warrants and subsequently remeasured and exchanged the warrants for Series B Preferred Shares. Determining the fair value of the securities in these transactions requires significant judgment, including adjustments to quoted share prices and expected stock volatility. Such estimates may significantly impact our results of operations and losses applicable to common stockholders.

Commitments and Contingencies. We record a liability for commitments and contingencies when the amount is both probable and reasonably estimable. We record associated legal fees as incurred.

Results of Operations

Three months ended April 30, 2015 versus three months ended April 30, 2014

Net Revenues. Net revenues for the three months ended April 30, 2015 decreased approximately 47% to $1.7 million from $3.2 million in the comparable quarter last year. The decrease was due to lower sales of Zumba titles. In the prior-year period, we released Zumba World Party during our first quarter. We did not release a new Zumba title in the current-year period. Overall Zumba sales accounted for 48% of revenues in the prior-year period. In addition, since April 30, 2014, we have substantially reduced development and distribution activities for packaged software generally and released fewer titles in the current period. Revenues from games distributed digitally amounted to $0.4 compared to $0.5 the same period last year.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the three months ended April 30, 2015 was approximately $0.8 million compared to a gross profit of approximately $0.1 million in the same period last year. The increase in gross profit reflects higher cost of sales for Zumba and other sales affecting the prior-year period as discussed above. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 47% for the three months ended April 30, 2015, compared to 2% for the three months ended April 30, 2014. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was primarily due to the portion of total revenues represented by revenues from digital distribution, which has a higher gross margin relative to sales due to the lack of cost of physical goods distribution and amortization of development costs. In the prior year, costs of sales included significant higher amortization of software development costs of Zumba and higher customer allowances.

Product Research and Development Expenses. Product research and development expenses were less than $0.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015, compared to approximately $0.4 million of expenses for the same period in 2014, reflecting the effects of workforce reductions in 2014 and limited spending on third-party development projects.

Selling and Marketing Expenses. Total selling and marketing expenses were approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended April 30, 2015, compared to approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended April 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel costs and other marketing and distribution activities related to the Company’s games generally.

General and Administrative Expenses. For the three-month period ended April 30, 2015, general and administrative expenses amounted to $1.3 million, compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended April 30, 2014. The decrease reflects lower compensation costs, rent and other overhead costs, and certain consulting and professional fees and related support expenses. The decreases were partially offset by greater legal fees associated with financing activities.

Workforce Reduction. For the three-month period ended April 30, 2015, we incurred workforce reduction costs of $0.6 million pertaining to severance costs, including primarily severance costs for finance and legal executives and other personnel. There were no such costs in the prior-year period

Operating loss. Operating loss for the three months ended April 30, 2015 was approximately $1.4 million, compared to an operating loss of $3.4 million in the comparable period in 2014, primarily reflecting expense reductions in development and marketing activities.

Loss from equity method investment. We recorded a loss of approximately $0.2 million in the three months ended April 30, 2014 for our 50% share of losses incurred by our GMS joint venture in the period. We sold our investment in GMS in November 2014. Accordingly, there was no effect of GMS operations on the current-year period.

Extinguishment of liabilities. During the three months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of liabilities of $0.5 million. The Company determined that certain accounts payable balances and claims for license fees and services would never be paid because they were no longer being pursued for payment and had passed the statute of limitations and modified the terms of certain licenses and distribution agreements. There was no such activity in the prior-year period.

Change in fair value of warrant liability. In our December 2014 private placement of units consisting of preferred stock and warrants, we issued warrants containing certain contingent settlement terms not indexed to our own stock. Prior to the exchange of the warrants, we accounted for the warrants as liabilities, re-measured their fair value through the date of the exchange and recognized related losses on a current basis. In the three months ended April 30, 2015, we recognized a loss of $0.8 million reflecting an increase in our stock price from the issuance date of the warrant to April 30, 2015.

Income Taxes. In the three months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, our income tax expense was not significant, representing primarily minimum state income taxes.

Six months ended April 30, 2015 versus six months ended April 30, 2014

Net Revenues. Net revenues for the six months ended April 30, 2015 decreased approximately 79% to $5.2 million from $25.2 million in the comparable quarter last year. The decrease was due to lower sales of Zumba titles, including a decrease in Zumba revenue from Europe. In the prior-year period, we released Zumba World Party and Zumba Kids. We did not release a new Zumba title in the current-year period. Overall Zumba sales accounted for 69% of revenues in the prior-year period. In addition, since April 30, 2014, we have substantially reduced development and distribution activities for packaged software generally and released fewer titles in the current period. Revenues from games distributed digitally increased to $1.3 million compared to $1.0 million in the same period last year primarily due to the release of Costume Quest 2 and Slender: The Arrival, on various digital platforms including Steam, Sony Playstation Network and Microsoft XBLA.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the six months ended April 30, 2015 was approximately $2.2 million compared to a gross profit of approximately $3.5 million in the same period last year. The decrease in gross profit reflects lower Zumba and other sales as discussed above. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 42% for the six months ended April 30, 2015, compared to 14% for the six months ended April 30, 2014. The increase in gross profit as a percentage of sales was primarily due to the portion of total revenues represented by revenues from digital distribution, which has a higher gross margin relative to sales due to the lack of cost of physical goods distribution. In the prior year, costs of sales included significant higher amortization of software development costs of Zumba and higher customer allowances.

Product Research and Development Expenses. Product research and development expenses were less than $0.1 million for the six months ended April 30, 2015, compared to approximately $1.7 million of expenses for the same period in 2014, reflecting the effects of workforce reductions in 2014 and limited spending on third-party development projects.

Selling and Marketing Expenses. Total selling and marketing expenses were approximately $0.6 million for the six months ended April 30, 2015, compared to $5.2 million for the six months ended April 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily due to lower personnel costs and other marketing and distribution activities related to the Company’s games generally. In addition, the prior-year period included advertising costs related to the release of Zumba games.

General and Administrative Expenses. For the six-month period ended April 30, 2015, general and administrative expenses amounted to approximately $3.0 million, compared to $3.9 million for the six months ended April 30, 2014. The decrease reflects lower compensation costs, consulting and professional fees and related support expenses, partially offset by greater legal fees related to financing activities.

Workforce Reduction. For the three-month period ended April 30, 2015, we incurred workforce reduction costs of $0.7 million pertaining to severance costs, including primarily severance costs for finance and legal executives and other personnel. There were no such costs in the prior-year period

Operating loss. Operating loss for the six months ended April 30, 2015 was approximately $2.3 million, compared to an operating loss of approximately $7.5 million in the comparable period in 2014, primarily reflecting expense reductions in development and marketing activities.

Loss from equity method investment. We recorded a loss of approximately $0.4 million in the six months ended April 30, 2014 for our 50% share of losses incurred by our GMS joint venture in the period. We sold our investment in GMS in November 2014. Accordingly, there was no effect of GMS operations on the current-year period.

Extinguishment of liabilities. During the six months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recognized a gain on extinguishment of liabilities of $1.1 million. The Company determined that certain accounts payable balances and claims for license fees and services would never be paid because they were no longer being pursued for payment and had passed the statute of limitations and modified the terms of certain licenses and distribution agreements. There was no such activity in the prior-year period.

Net Gains on asset sales. During the six months ended April 30, 2015, the Company recognized a $0.1 million net gain from the sale of certain game rights and from the sale of office furniture and equipment upon the move to a smaller office. There was no such activity in the prior-year period.

Change in fair value of warrant liability. In our December 2014 private placement of units consisting of preferred stock and warrants, we issued warrants containing certain contingent settlement terms not indexed to our own stock. Prior to the exchange of the warrants, we account for the warrants as liabilities, re-measured their fair value through the date of the exchange and recognized related losses on a current basis. In the six months ended April 30, 2015, we recognized a loss of $1.6 million reflecting an increase in our stock price from the issuance date of the warrants to April 30, 2015.

Income Taxes. In the six months ended April 30, 2015 and 2014, our income tax expense was not significant, representing primarily minimum state income taxes.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of April 30, 2015, our cash and cash equivalents balance was $9.1 million and our working capital was approximately $5.6 million, compared to cash and equivalents of $7.2 million and working capital of $5.4 million at October 31, 2014. The increase in cash primarily reflects the sale of inventory and collection of accounts receivable in the six months ended April 30, 2015. In addition, we received approximately $0.8 million of net proceeds from our December 2014 private placement of units and received cash proceeds from the sale of certain games in development and our interest in GMS.

In recent quarters, we have generally used cash and working capital balances to fund periodic operating losses due to declining revenues which we attribute to three factors: 1) the introduction of competing “freemium” games on competing handheld devices such as the Apple iphone or itouch, and Android powered devices; 2) a shift in game distribution from retail to digital downloads; and 3) a decline in the popularity of motion based fitness games including games we publish under the Zumba fitness brand. As a result of these factors we have reduced our operating expenses, including the reduction of game production and marketing personnel, and have eliminated substantially all of our new game development activities. We are evaluating various strategic alternatives to maximize company value including the acquisition of businesses that are not related to our existing video game operations. Additionally, we have entered into financing transactions for which we have received approximately $1.6 million in cash, with another $9.0 million available if the Company satisfies certain conditions including, among other things, the completion of a business acquisition which meets the criteria of a “qualified transaction” as defined in the applicable subscription agreements, (see “-Private Placements” below for further information). There is no assurance that we will meet any of the criteria. Additionally, the terms of the private placements restrict us from seeking funding from other sources as long as the preferred shares are outstanding, without the required consent of such shares.

The factors above raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements included herein do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. As of April 30, 2015, we believe that there may not be sufficient capital resources from operations and existing financing arrangements in order to meet operating expenses and working capital requirements for the next twelve months.

Private Placements

The private placements described below were completed in December 2014 and May 2015. A substantial portion of the proceeds of these offerings remain subject to escrow agreements pending the satisfaction of release conditions, generally related to potential future asset acquisitions and financing activities and are not currently available to fund operations.

December 2014

On December 17, 2014, pursuant to subscription agreements (the “December Subscription Agreements”) entered into with certain accredited investors (the “December Investors”) the Company completed a private placement of $6.0 million of units (the “December Units”) at a purchase price of $0.68 per December Unit, with each December Unit consisting of one share of the Company’s 0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) and a five year warrant (the “December Warrants”) to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an initial exercise price of $0.68 per share (such issuance and sale the “December Private Placement”). The December Warrants were subsequently exchanged for shares of our 0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Shares”) and shares of our common stock.

The Series A Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of the of such Series A Preferred Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Series A Preferred Share, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price. The stated value of each Series A Preferred Share is $0.68 and the initial conversion price is $0.68 per share, each subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events. In addition, in the event the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to issue or sell, shares of common stock at a per share price that is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to certain exceptions. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock of Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Series A Certificate of Designations”), the Company is prohibited from incurring debt or liens, or entering into new financing transactions without the consent of the lead investor (as defined in the December Subscription Agreements) as long as any of the Series A Preferred Shares are outstanding. The Series A Preferred Shares bear no interest.

The holders of Series A Preferred Shares shall vote together with the holders of common stock on all matters on an as if converted basis, subject to certain limitations described in the Series A Certificate of Designations and the beneficial ownership limitation described below, and shall not vote as a separate class. At no time may all or a portion of the Series A Preferred Shares be converted if the number of shares of common stock to be issued pursuant to such conversion would exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of common stock owned by the holder at such time, the number of shares of common stock which would result in the holder beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act and the rules thereunder) more than 4.99% of all of the common stock outstanding at such time; provided, however, that upon the holder may waive the 4.99% limitation at which time such holder may not own more than 9.99% beneficial ownership.

The proceeds of the offering and certificates representing the securities underlying the December Units issued in the offering were deposited into an escrow account (the “December Escrow Amount”) with Signature Bank as the escrow agent (the “December Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “December Escrow Agreement”) dated December 17, 2014, by and between the Company, the lead investor in the unit financing and the December Escrow Agent, and certificates representing the December Warrants and a record of the Series A Preferred Shares sold in the December Private Placement, were deposited and recorded with the Company’s corporate secretary (the “December Securities Escrow Agent”) to be held in escrow. Upon the closing of the December Private Placement on December 17, 2014 (such date, the “December Closing Date”), $1.0 million of the December Escrow Amount was released by the December Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of $1.0 million of December Units by the December Securities Escrow Agent. Following the December Closing Date, the remaining $5.0 million may be released, in one or multiple tranches, by the December Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of $5.0 million of December Units by the December Securities Escrow Agent to the December Investors, if either, (i) the lead investor has approved the release, (ii) the approval of the requisite number of December Investors has been obtained, (iii) the Company has executed definitive binding documents for certain transactions, as described in the December Subscription Agreements, and such transaction(s) are to close contemporaneously with the release or (iv) the following conditions are present: (a) nine months has elapsed from the December Closing Date and release is approved by each of the directors appointed at closing (being the non-continuing directors); (b) no subsequent release of the December Escrow Amount has been consummated; and (c) no more than $1.0 million is released (the “December Release Conditions”). The holders of the Series A Preferred Shares issued and held in escrow can vote the shares subject to the limitations described below. In the event that on and as of the twelve month anniversary of the December Closing Date none of the December Release Conditions have been satisfied, the December Escrow Agent shall return $5.0 million to the December Investors, without interest or deduction, and the December Securities Escrow Agent shall return the December Units to the Company for cancellation.

On April 30, 2015, pursuant to warrant exchange agreements, the Company retired the 8,823,529 December Warrants issued in the December Private Placement, including both the December Warrants released to the December Investors on the December Closing Date and the December Warrants subject to the escrow conditions, in exchange for shares of common stock or Series B Preferred Shares, in lieu of shares of common stock equal, on an as-converted basis, to the number of shares of common stock that would have otherwise been received by the holder, if such issuance would result in the recipient holder exceeding certain thresholds. An aggregate of 6,302,525 shares of common stock, which amount includes the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares, were issuable in connection with the exchange agreements.

The Series B Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of the of such Series B Preferred Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Series B Preferred Shares, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price. The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, such holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series B Preferred Shares, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%.  Subject to such beneficial ownership limitations, each holder is entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company on an as converted basis.  Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock of Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Series B Certificate of Designations”), the Series B Preferred Shares will rank junior to the Series A Preferred Shares and will bear no interest.

May 2015

On May 15, 2015 (the “May Closing Date”), the Company closed an additional sale of $5.05 million of units (the “May Units”), pursuant to separate subscription agreements (the “May Subscription Agreements”) with accredited investors (the “May Investors”) entered into on April 29, 2015, at a purchase price of $1.20 per Unit.  Each May Unit consists of one share (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, provided that, if the issuance of any such Shares would have resulted in the recipient May Investor owning in excess of 4.99% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, then such May Investor could elect to receive shares of the Company’s 0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred Shares”) in lieu of Shares that are, on an as converted basis, equal to one share of common stock for every May Unit purchased, and a three-year warrant (the “May Warrants”) to purchase one share of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.40 per share (such sale and issuance, the “May Private Placement”).  Of the $5.050 million of May Units sold, approximately $3.1 consisted of Series C Preferred Shares.

The Series C Preferred Shares are convertible into shares of common stock based on a conversion calculation equal to the stated value of such Series C Preferred Share, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, if any, on such Series C Preferred Share, as of such date of determination, divided by the conversion price.  The stated value of each Series C Preferred Share is $120 and the initial conversion price is $1.20 per share, each subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, combinations, subdivisions or other similar events.  In addition, in the event the Company issues or sells, or is deemed to issue or sell, shares of common stock at a per share price that is less than the conversion price then in effect, the conversion price shall be reduced to such lower price, subject to certain exceptions and provided that the conversion price may not be reduced to less than $0.86, unless and until such time as the Company obtains shareholder approval to allow for a lower conversion price.  The Company is prohibited from effecting a conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares to the extent that, as a result of such conversion, such Investor would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%.  Each holder is entitled to vote on all matters submitted to stockholders of the Company, and shall have the number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of such holder’s Series C Preferred Shares.  Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the 0% Series C Convertible Preferred Stock of Majesco Entertainment Company (the “Series C Certificate of Designations”), the Series C Preferred Shares bear no interest and shall rank junior to the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares but senior to the Company’s Series B Preferred Shares.

The May Warrants are exercisable, at any time, following the date the May Warrants are issued, at a price of $1.40 per share, subject to adjustment, and expire three years from the date of issuance. The holders may, subject to certain limitations, exercise the May Warrants on a cashless basis. The Company is prohibited from effecting an exercise of any May Warrant to the extent that, as a result of any such exercise, the holder would beneficially own more than 4.99% of the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of such May Warrant, which beneficial ownership limitation may be increased by the holder up to, but not exceeding, 9.99%.  In addition, since the May Private Placement was undertaken pursuant to the stockholder approval previously received, pursuant to which the maximum number of securities approved for issuance was 5,000,000 shares of common stock, the May Warrants also include a provision that prevent their full exercise unless and until further stockholder approval is received to exceed such issuance amount.  The May Warrants are also subject to certain adjustments upon certain actions by the Company as outlined in the May Warrants.

The offering was made pursuant to an exemption from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).  On the May Closing Date the Company entered into separate registration rights agreements (the “May Registration Rights Agreement”) with each of the May Investors, pursuant to which the Company will undertake to file a registration statement to register the Shares and the common stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series C Preferred Shares, within thirty days following the May Closing Date, to cause such registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission within ninety days of the filing day and to maintain the effectiveness of the registration statement until all of such shares of common stock have been sold or are otherwise able to be sold pursuant to Rule 144.  In the event the Company fails to file, or obtain effectiveness of, such registration statement with the given period of time, the Company will be obligated to pay liquidated damages to the May Investors for every thirty days during which such filing is not made and/or effectiveness obtained, such fee being subject to certain exceptions.

The proceeds of the May Private Placement were deposited into an escrow account (the “May Escrow Amount”) with Signature Bank, as escrow agent (the “May Escrow Agent”) pursuant to an escrow agreement (the “May Escrow Agreement”), entered into by and between the Company, the lead investor (as defined in the May Subscription Agreement) and the May Escrow Agent, and certificates representing the May Warrants and a record of the Shares and Series C Preferred Shares, sold in the May Private Placement were deposited and recorded with the Company’s corporate secretary (the “May Securities Escrow Agent”) to be held in escrow. On the May Closing Date, twenty percent (20%) of the May Escrow Amount ($1.01 million) was released by the May Escrow Agent to the Company in exchange for the release of twenty percent (20%) of May Units by the May Securities Escrow Agent to the May Investors.  Following the May Closing Date, in one or multiple tranches, the remaining eighty percent (80%) of the May Escrow Amount ($4.04 million) will be released by the May Escrow Agent to the Company and the corresponding percentage of May Units shall be released to the May Investors, provided that, either, (i) the lead investor has approved the release or (ii) the Company has satisfied certain conditions precedent as described in the May Subscription Agreements.

Factoring and Purchase Order Financing.

We factor a portion of our receivables from sales of packaged software. Under our factoring agreement, we have the ability to take cash advances against eligible outstanding accounts receivable. In 2015, the terms of our factoring agreement were amended to remove availability for inventory balances, The factor, in its sole discretion, can reduce the availability of financing at any time. We had no outstanding advances against accounts receivable under our factoring agreement at April 30, 2015.

Under the terms of our factoring agreement, we sell our accounts receivable to the factor. The factor, in its sole discretion, determines whether or not it will accept the credit risk associated with a receivable. If the factor does not accept the credit risk on a receivable, we may sell the accounts receivable to the factor while retaining the credit risk. In both cases we surrender all rights and control over the receivable to the factor. However, in cases where we retain the credit risk, the amount can be charged back to us in the case of non-payment by the customer. The factor is required to remit payments to us for the accounts receivable purchased from us, provided the customer does not have a valid dispute related to the invoice. The amount remitted to us by the factor equals the invoiced amount, adjusted for allowances and discounts we have provided to the customer, less factor charges.

In addition, we may request that the factor provide us with cash advances based on our accounts receivable and inventory. The factor may either accept or reject our request for advances at its discretion. Generally, the factor allowed us to take advances in an amount equal to 70% of net accounts receivable. Occasionally, the factor allows us to take advances in excess of these amounts for short-term working capital needs. These excess amounts are typically repaid within a 30-day period. At April 30, 2015, we had no advances outstanding and limited availability based on our accounts receivable and customer credit balances.

Manufacturers require us to present a letter of credit, or pay cash in advance, in order to manufacture the products required under a purchase order. A purchase order financing agreement we maintained with a finance company expired in March 2015 and due to the decline in our retail business we did not seek to renew it. We will pay cash in advance instead of utilizing purchase order financing for future purchases.

Advances from Customers. On a case by case basis, distributors and other customers have agreed to provide us with cash advances on their orders. These advances are then applied against future sales to these customers. In exchange for these advances, we generally offer these customers beneficial pricing or other considerations.

Commitments and Contingencies.

On September 20, 2012, a complaint for patent infringement was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia by Intelligent Verification Systems, LLC against Microsoft Corporation and the Company. The complaint alleges that Kinect and certain Kinect games, including Zumba Fitness Rush, infringe the plaintiff’s patents relating to biometric facial recognition and facial expression recognition technology. Intelligent Verification Systems is seeking injunctive relief and monetary damages of approximately $2.7 million for the alleged infringement. In April 2015, the parties, by stipulation, agreed to entry of an order for summary judgment in favor of defendants, in the United Stated District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia following a Court ruling that recommended excluding plaintiff’s damages expert. The Court is expected to enter an order for summary judgment in favor of the defendants. We have been informed that plaintiff intends to appeal the decision of the Court to exclude its damages expert. The Company intends, in conjunction with Microsoft, to continue to defend itself against the claim. The Company cannot currently estimate a potential range of loss if the claim against the Company is successful.

On February 26, 2015, a complaint for patent infringement was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas by Richard Baker, an individual residing in Australia, against the Company, along with Microsoft, Nintendo and a number of other game publisher defendants. The complaint alleges that the Company’s Zumba Fitness Kinect game infringed plaintiff’s patents in motion tracking technology. The plaintiff claims he has been damaged by the Company in the amount of $1.3 million. The Company intends to defend itself against the claim. The Company cannot currently estimate a potential range of loss if the claim against the Company is successful.

In addition to the items above, we at times may be a party to claims and suits in the ordinary course of business. We record a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. We have not recorded a liability with respect to the matters above. While we believe that we have valid defenses with respect to the legal matters pending and intend to vigorously defend the matters, given the uncertainty surrounding litigation and our inability to assess the likelihood of a favorable or unfavorable outcome, it is possible that the resolution of the matter could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.

Commitments under development agreements amounted to $0.7 million at April 30, 2015.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of April 30, 2015, we had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Inflation

Our management currently believes that inflation has not had, and does not currently have, a material impact on continuing operations.

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents were $9.1 million as of April 30, 2015 compared to $7.2 million at October 31, 2014 and working capital as of April 30, 2015 was $5.6 million compared to $5.4 million at October 31, 2014. Due to our lower factored accounts receivable balances, amounts available to us under our factoring agreement were not significant at April 30, 2015.

Operating Cash Flows. Our principal operating source of cash is revenue from distribution of our interactive entertainment products, net of royalty and revenue-share payments to licensors, developers and publishers. During fiscal 2014, we reduced our development and marketing activities and distributed a greater number of games published by others, compared to prior years. Accordingly, the portion of operating cash flows used for associated working capital requirements, including pre-release development and costs incurred to manufacture, sell and market our games has generally been reduced. We received $0.9 million of cash inflows from operations during the six months ended April 30, 2015, primarily reflecting the liquidation of prior inventory balances and collection of accounts receivable.

Investing Cash Flows. Cash provided by investing activities in the six months ended April 30, 2015 amounted to $0.2 million, reflecting proceeds from the sale of certain game rights.

Financing Cash Flows. Net cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended April 30, 2015 reflects net proceeds from the private placement of units described above.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

Not applicable.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report.

In designing and evaluating our disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

While we believe our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting are adequate, no system of controls can prevent errors and fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur. Controls can also be circumvented by individual acts of some people, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls. The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with its policies or procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Subject to the limitations above, management believes that the condensed consolidated financial statements and other financial information contained in this report, fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented.

Based on the evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) were effective at a reasonable assurance level.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Company implemented certain changes to its internal controls over financial reporting to account for the downsizing of its workforce during the six months ended April 30, 2015 and relocation of its offices to a smaller location. The changes related primarily to internal information processing and communication, including information technology, the re-assignment of responsibility for the performance procedures, including key controls, to new personnel and the modification of review procedures. In addition, the registrant’s Chief Financial Officer and its General Counsel, Senior Vice President Business and Legal Affairs and Secretary resigned as of March 17, 2015. The registrant will evaluate the effect of these changes on its internal controls over financial reporting during the next fiscal quarter.
