PART I

Introduction: When we use the terms “Scores,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our,” we mean Scores Holding Company, Inc. and all entities owned by us, except where it is clear that the term means only the parent company.

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

Scores Holding Company, Inc. was incorporated in Utah on September 21, 1981 under the name Adonis Energy, Inc. The Company adopted its current name in July 2002. Since 2003, we have been in the business of licensing the “Scores” trademarks and other intellectual property to gentlemen’s nightclubs with adult entertainment in the United States. These clubs feature topless female entertainers together with opportunities for watching sporting events and corporate and private parties. There are six such clubs currently operating under the Scores name, in New York City, Baltimore, Chicago, Tampa, Atlantic City and New Orleans. We also have licensing agreements in place for a club in Detroit (not currently operating).

Our trademarks and copyrights surrounding the Scores trade name are critical to the success and potential growth of our business.

History and Development of our Business

On March 31, 2003, pursuant to the Amended and Restated Master License Agreement (the “MLA”) by and between us and our former affiliate, Entertainment Management Services, Inc. ("EMS"), an entity owned by two of our former directors and employees, we granted EMS an exclusive, worldwide renewable 20 year license in our property to sublicense the Scores trade name to nightclubs (the “Licensing Rights”). Under the MLA, EMS was required to pay us 100% of the royalties EMS received from the formerly affiliated clubs (defined below) and 50% of the royalties received from non-affiliated clubs (the “Royalty Rights”). These clubs had license agreements with EMS pursuant to which they typically paid EMS approximately 4.99% of their gross revenues from operations, including the sale of merchandise. We depended on these royalties to operate our business and as our principal source of revenue.

On January 27, 2009 (as further discussed below), we terminated the MLA with EMS and EMS transferred to us all of the Licensing Rights and Royalty Rights. Since termination of the MLA, our property is licensed directly by us to the three remaining clubs that previously had been sublicensing our property from EMS, and, thus, as of January 27, 2009, we are receiving 100% of the royalty payments made by these clubs rather than the 50% we were entitled to under the MLA.

Until January 27, 2009, we were under common control with two previously existing nightclubs in New York, New York (“Scores East” and “Scores West”) which were owned, respectively, by 333 East 60th Street, Inc. (“333”), and Go West Entertainment, Inc. (“Go West”). EMS is also owned by 333. Through EMS, we had sublicense agreements with each of Scores East and Scores West pursuant to which they were entitled to use the Scores intellectual property. Throughout this report, we refer to Scores East and Scores West as our “formerly affiliated clubs.” All other clubs with the exception of our newly opened club in New York, Scores New York (see discussion below), are referred to as non-affiliated clubs or as licensees (or sublicensees, as applicable), a term that may include the formerly affiliated clubs when the context requires.

Mr. Gans is the majority owner of I.M. Operating LLC (“IMO”). IMO has a licensing agreement with us and has commenced operations in New York, New York under the club name Scores New York. (Throughout this report, we refer to Scores New York as our “affiliated club”).

As further described below, on January 27, 2009, Mitchell’s East LLC, a New York limited liability company wholly owned by Robert M. Gans, acquired a majority interest in our outstanding capital stock.

	3

Change in our Ownership

On January 27, 2009, pursuant to a stock purchase agreement (the “SPA”), Mitchell’s East LLC (“Buyer”), purchased an aggregate of 88,900,230 shares (the “Owned Shares”) of our common stock beneficially owned by Richard Goldring and Elliot Osher (collectively the “Share Sellers”), as well as any rights Harvey Osher (the Share Sellers and Harvey Osher, together, the “Sellers”) may have in 13,886,059 shares of our common stock (the “Decedent Owned Shares”) currently held of record by the estate of William Osher, deceased, and any rights the Sellers may have in an additional 2,400,001 shares of our common stock (the “Expectancy Shares”). Under the terms of the SPA, Harvey Osher is to deliver to the Buyer the Decedent Owned Shares that he may receive and the Sellers are to deliver to the Buyer any shares of the Company underlying the Expectancy Shares that any such Seller may receive. Additionally, pursuant to the SPA, each of the Sellers granted to Buyer an irrevocable proxy enabling Buyer to act as his proxy with respect to any shares underlying the Decedent Owned Shares and the Expectancy Shares, as applicable.

The Owned Shares represent approximately fifty four percent (54%) of our outstanding capital stock and the Owned Shares together with the Decedent Owned Shares represent approximately sixty two percent (62%) of our outstanding capital stock.

Changes in our Management

On August 6, 2010, we appointed Robert M. Gans as our President and Chief Executive Officer and as a member of our Board of Directors. Robert Gans and Martin Gans, one of our existing Board members, are brothers. Also on August 6, 2010, we appointed Howard Rosenbluth as our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Rosenbluth is also a director.

Nightclubs Currently Licensing our Scores Brand

Pursuant to the Assignment Agreement between us and EMS dated January 27, 2009, payments to EMS under existing licenses with non-affiliated clubs were assigned to us. Since this Assignment Agreement, we have retained 100% of the royalty payments from each of these clubs.

In 2003, EMS licensed the use of the "Scores Chicago" name to Stone Park Entertainment, Inc. for its club in Chicago, Illinois. Royalties payable to the Company under this license are the greater of $2,500 per week or 4.99% of the Chicago club’s gross revenues (less $25,000 per week) earned at that location. The Chicago club accounted for 18% and 18% of our total royalty revenues during 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In 2004, EMS licensed the use of "Scores Baltimore" to Club 2000 Eastern Avenue, Inc. for its nightclub in Baltimore, Maryland. Royalties payable to the Company under this license are the greater of $1,000 per week or 4.99% of gross revenues. The Baltimore club accounted for 20% and 23% of our total royalty revenues in 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In April 2007, EMS licensed the use of the Scores brand name to Silver Bourbon, Inc. for a night club in New Orleans, Louisiana “Score New Orleans”. Royalties payable under this license are capped at the greater of $4,000 per month or 4.99% of gross revenues. The New Orleans club accounted for 17% and 19% of our total royalty revenues during each of 2012 and 2011, respectively.

On January 27, 2009, we entered into a licensing agreement with IMO for the use of the Scores brand name “Scores New York.” IMO is owned in the majority by Robert M. Gans who is also our majority shareholder. The address where IMO’s new club is located is the same address as that of the former Scores West nightclub, 533-535 West 27th Street, New York, NY (the “West 27 ^th Street Building”). Royalties payable to us under this license agreement have been set at 3% of gross revenues of Scores New York. Scores New York commenced operations in May 2009 and has accounted for 29% of our total royalty revenue during 2012 and 29% of our total royalty revenue during 2011. The West 27th Street Building is owned by Westside Realty of New York (“WSR”). Robert M. Gans is the majority owner of WSR.

On September 30, 2010, we entered into a licensing agreement with Tampa Food & Entertainment, Inc. Upon signing the contract, we received a non-refundable fee. For the first twelve months we received a flat fee of $6,000 per month with an advance payment made at the signing of the contract. Following that initial 12-month period, royalties payable to us under this license are capped at the greater of $6,000 per month or 4.99% of net revenues, and beginning July 1, 2012, the greater of $10,000 or 4.99% of the net revenues. The Company subsequently entered into an Addendum to this agreement providing that until such time as 4.99% of net revenues for any month are equal to or greater than $8,000, the fee shall be $10,000 per month. The Tampa club accounted for 14% of our total royalty revenue during 2012 and 11% of our total revenue during 2011.

On December 26, 2012, we entered into a licensing agreement with Norm A Properties LLC for the use of certain Scores trademarks in Michigan. For the first five years of the agreement, we will receive a flat fee of $10,000 per month but will be required to designate a portion of that fee for advertising Scores Detroit. The Detroit club was not operating as of December 31, 2012.

Pursuant to an oral arrangement in November 2013 we granted a license for the use of the “Scores Atlantic City” name to Star Light Events LLC for its gentlemen’s club in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Royalties under this license are payable at the rate of $10,000 per month, commencing in April 2014, and the license is for a term of five years. We are currently in the process of preparing a written license agreement with respect to our arrangement with Star Light Events LLC. Robert M. Gans, our President, Chief Executive Officer and a director, is the majority owner of Star Light Events LLC.

Scoreslive.com

On January 24, 2006, we entered into a licensing agreement with AYA International, Inc. (“AYA”) granting AYA the right to use our trademarks in connection with its online video chat website, “Scoreslive.com.” EMS was not a party to this license agreement. Our agreement with AYA provides for royalty payments to be made directly to us at the rate of 4.99% of weekly gross revenues from all revenue sources within the AYA website. The license continues for as long as the website is operational. Scoreslive.com piloted in January 2007. The Company began accruing royalties under the Scoreslive.com license in the second quarter of 2012. The Scoreslive.com license accounts for 1% and 0% of our total revenues in 2012 and 2011, respectively. On December 21, 2009, AYA transferred all of its rights in Scoreslive.com and in its licensing agreement with us to Swan Media Group, Inc. (“SMG”), a newly formed New York corporation whose majority owner is Robert M. Gans.

Burhill LLC

On August 5, 2010, we entered into a license agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Burhill LLC (the “Licensee”) pursuant to which the Licensee will license the Scores trademarks and create, distribute, advertise and promote programming content in all forms of media using the Scores trademarks and conducting business under the name “Scores.” The Licensee had agreed to pay us a non-refundable royalty equal to five percent (5%) of the revenues of the Licensee earned in connection with the Licensee’s use of the Scores trademarks, net of actual local sales taxes paid and including any and all licensing fees charged to third parties for the use of the programming content owned and/or distributed by the Licensee. The Licensee is wholly owned by Robert M. Gans, our President and Chief Executive Officer and owner of Mitchell’s East LLC, our majority stockholder. This arrangement with Burhill LLC was terminated in July 2011. No royalties were ever paid pursuant to the License Agreement.

Competition

The adult nightclub entertainment business is highly competitive with respect to price, service, location and professionalism of its entertainment. Sublicensed clubs will compete with many locally-owned adult nightclubs. It is our belief, however, that only a few of these nightclubs have names that enjoy recognition and status equal to the Scores brand. For example, there are approximately twenty five (25) adult entertainment cabaret night clubs within the five boroughs of New York City; approximately six upscale located in the borough of Manhattan. We believe only three (Ricks Cabaret, Hustler and Penthouse) provide the most competitive adult entertainment experience to that of our brand and our New York affiliate. Other localities where our “Scores” brand is licensed have similar competitive environments. Penthouse is a related-party competitor due to the common control and ownership by our President and Chief Executive Officer.

We believe the combination of our name recognition and our distinctive entertainment environment allows our licensees to effectively compete within the industry, although we cannot assure anyone that this will prove to be the case. The success of our licensees depends upon their ability to retain quality entertainers, employees and to provide customer service to their customers. The inability to sustain quality entertainers, employees and customer service could have a material or adverse impact on the ability of our licensees to compete within the industry.

Competition among online adult entertainment providers is intense in respect to both content and subscribers’ capital. SMG’s competition for its Scoreslive.com internet site varies in both the type and quality of offerings, but consists primarily of other premium pay services. The availability of, and price pressure from, more explicit content on the Internet, frequently offered for free, also presents a significant competitive challenge to SMG. The Internet is highly competitive, and Scoreslive.com will compete for visitors, subscribers, shoppers and advertisers. We believe that the primary competitive factors affecting SMG’s Internet operations include brand recognition, the quality of content and products, pricing, ease of use and sales and marketing efforts. We believe that SMG and Scoreslive.com have the advantage of leveraging the power of our Scores brand across multiple media platforms.

Employees

At the present time, we have no employees.

Government Regulation

Our licensees are subject to a variety of governmental regulations depending upon the laws of the jurisdictions in which they operate. The most significant governmental regulations are described below.

Liquor Licenses

Our licensees are subject to state and local licensing regulation of the sale of alcoholic beverages. We expect licensees to obtain and maintain appropriate licenses allowing them to sell liquor, beer and wine. Obtaining a liquor license may be a time consuming procedure. In New York, for example, a licensee must make an application to the New York State Liquor Authority (the “NYSLA”) for a liquor license regarding its proposed nightclub. The NYSLA has the authority, in its discretion, to issue or deny such a license request. The NYSLA typically requires local community board approval in connection with such grants. Approval is usually granted or denied within 90-120 days from the initial application date, but can take longer in certain circumstances. Other jurisdictions have their own procedures.

We cannot offer any assurance that our licensees will obtain liquor licenses or that, once obtained, they will maintain their liquor licenses or be able to assign or transfer them if necessary. A license to sell alcoholic beverages in many cases requires annual renewal and may be revoked or suspended for cause, including any regulatory violation by the nightclub operating the license or its employees. Royalties for our business could decrease, if one or more of our licensees fails to maintain its liquor license.

"Cabaret" Licenses

Although not a requirement, our licensees typically request a cabaret license in connection with the operation of their nightclubs. Cabaret licenses are not a requirement in all states; however, some states mandate that such licenses be obtained prior to the operation of an adult nightclub. For example, one of our formerly affiliated licensees was granted a cabaret license for a nightclub by the City of New York’s Department of Consumer Affairs (the "DCA"). We believe our licensees comply with all regulatory laws regarding cabaret or an adult entertainment license; however, there is no assurance that any of their licenses will remain effective or that they could be assigned or transferred if necessary. If one or more of our licensees failed to maintain a required license, this could have a material or adverse effect on our cash flow and profitability.

	5

Zoning Restrictions

Adult entertainment establishments must comply with local zoning restrictions which can be stringent. For example, zoning regulations in the City of New York mandate that an adult entertainment business operate in an area zoned as residential, or in areas that are commercially zoned, and devotes more than either 40% or more of its space available to customers or 10,000 square feet for adult entertainment activities. Although we expect our licensees to operate within "zoned" areas, we cannot make any assurances that local zoning regulations will remain constant, or that if changed, our licensees will be able to continue operations under our Scores brand name trademark. If zoning regulations were to restrict the operations of one or more of our licensees, this could have a material or adverse effect on our cash flow and profitability.

We hold trademark and/or service mark registrations for the following trademarks in the United States: SCORES (Stylized) trademark, SCORES NEW YORK (Stylized), and SCORES SHOWROOM and Design. Such registrations were granted on various dates and are subject to renewal on various dates. Some of these trademarks are also registered in other jurisdictions outside of the United States. Applications have also been filed in the United States for other trademarks and/or service marks incorporating the SCORES word trademark, as well as others. It is too early to know whether registrations will issue for these pending applications.

Our trademarks and service marks provide significant value to us and are an important factor in our business. We believe that our trademarks and service marks do not infringe the intellectual property rights of any third parties.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

As of July 1, 2008, WSR, the owner of the West 27th Street Building, became the new lessor of our 700 square feet office occupancy at that location. On April 1, 2009, the monthly rent, which includes overhead cost, has been $2,500. Mr. Gans, the Company’s President, Chief Executive Officer, and majority shareholder, is the majority owner of WSR.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On June 14, 2013, Elizabeth Shiflett, a former cocktail waitress, filed a civil lawsuit against us in the S.D.N.Y. alleging violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (“Title VII”), as amended, the New York State Human Rights Law (“NYSHRL”) and the New York City Human Rights Law (“NYCHRL”) based upon allegations of sexual discrimination, creating a hostile work environment based upon plaintiff’s sex and race and unlawful retaliation against plaintiff. The lawsuit further alleges that at all material times we were the employer of the plaintiff. The lawsuit had been preceded by a Determination of the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (the “EEOC”) on January 25, 2013 that there was reasonable cause to believe that we had violated Title VII as a result of the complained-of conduct. The lawsuit seeks a declaratory judgment that the practices complained of violated Title VII, the NYSHRL and the NYCHRL, an injunction enjoining us from engaging in future unlawful acts of discrimination, harassment and retaliation, unspecified compensatory damages for plaintiff’s alleged loss of past and future earnings, emotional distress, humiliation and loss of reputation, punitive damages as a result of our alleged disregard of plaintiff’s protected civil rights, and attorneys’ fees and costs. We dispute that we were an employer of the plaintiff and categorically deny all allegations of sexual discrimination, sexual and racial harassment and retaliation. We will vigorously defend ourselves in this litigation and do not expect that the outcome will have a material impact on our operations.

On March 14, 2013, Miki Yamada, a former bartender at the Scores New York nightclub located at 536 West 28^th Street, New York, NY filed charges against us and IM Operating LLC (“IMO”) with the EEOC claiming violations of Title VII based upon alleged sexual harassment, discrimination based on gender and unlawful retaliation. Ms. Yamada also delivered a draft civil complaint to us containing similar allegations. Although we disputed the issues of liability and damages asserted by Ms. Yamada, we settled these matters for a payment of $90,000 to Ms. Yamada pursuant to a settlement and release agreement dated April 30, 2013. These matters were settled out of court.

On June 14, 2011, Christina Maldonado, a former front door receptionist/coat checker at Scores New York, located in New York NY filed a civil lawsuit New York State Supreme Court against us and IMO alleging violations of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, New York State Human Rights Law, New York Executive Law, New York City Human Rights Law and the New York City Administrative Code, based on allegations of sexual discrimination and sexual harassment. The lawsuit further alleges that both we and IMO were her employers. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages for alleged loss of past and future earnings and emotional distress and humiliation. We dispute that that we were an employer of the plaintiff and categorically deny all allegations of sexual discrimination and sexual harassment. We responded to the complaint and later filed an amended complaint and asserted a cross claim against IMO. We are vigorously defending ourselves in this litigation and do not expect that the outcome will be material.

	6

In mid-March 2010, we were named by Nichole Hughes in a complaint filed with the SCNY. Ms. Hughes sued us for an unspecified amount of damages in connection with an alleged unauthorized use of her image in our advertising materials. On June 20, 2010, we filed a pre-answer motion to dismiss the complaint, which was denied on December 17, 2010. We then filed an answer and affirmative defenses and a third party complaint against IMO, owner and operator of the club where Ms. Hughes was employed. Plaintiff’s counsel was granted leave by the court to withdraw from representation in January 2013. Plaintiff failed to appoint new counsel or further participate in the case and the case was dismissed on May 20, 2013.

On December 11, 2007, Francis Vargas, a former cocktail waitress at Scores West located in New York, NY, filed a civil lawsuit against us and Go West in the SCNY, alleging violations of the New York State Human Rights Law, New York Executive Law, New York City Human Rights Law, and the New York City Administrative Code, based upon allegations of sexual discrimination and sexual harassment. The lawsuit further alleges that at all material times both we and Go West were employers of Ms. Vargas, the plaintiff. The lawsuit seeks unspecified compensatory damages for plaintiff’s alleged loss of past and future earnings and benefits, emotional distress, humiliation and loss of reputation. We dispute that we were an employer of the plaintiff and categorically deny all allegations of sexual discrimination and sexual harassment. We filed our verified answer in the Supreme Court of the State of New York on February 12, 2008 to contest and defend against these accusations. On April 18, 2008, co-defendant Go West filed for bankruptcy and the case was stayed. On July 23, 2009, the bankruptcy petition was dismissed and, as a result, the automatic stay was lifted. We subsequently filed an amended response asserting cross-claims for judgment against both Go West and our former affiliate, Entertainment Management Services, Inc. ("EMS"), an entity owned by two of our former directors and employees. After engaging in discovery and other pre-trial activities the two sides agreed to a confidential settlement on February 22, 2013 and the case has been dismissed. The settlement does not have a material outcome on us.

There are no other material legal proceedings pending to which we or any of our property are subject, nor to our knowledge are any such proceedings threatened.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Results of Operations:

For the year ended December 31, 2012 (the “2012 period”) compared to the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 period”).

Revenues:

Revenues increased to $693,889 for the 2012 period from $629,251 for the 2011 period. This increase was primarily due to increased sales in our Tampa club, which commenced operations in late 2010 and revenues from this club amounted to $96,000 during the 2012 period and $72,000 during the 2011 period. Our operations are dependent upon royalties from our New York affiliated club which, in 2012, represented 29% of our total revenue. We license our brand to innovative and experienced operators who help sustain our brand by providing quality service to customers. Revenues increased 9% to $121,816 in the 2012 period from $112,168 in the 2011 period for the Chicago club, revenues decreased 2% to $138,781 in the 2012 period from $142,214 in the 2011 period for the Baltimore club and remained the same at $120,000 for the 2012 period and the 2011 period for the New Orleans club. Revenues increased 8% to 197,892 in the 2012 period from $182,870 in the 2011 period for the New York club. The Scoreslive.com license accounts for 1% and 0% of our total revenues in 2012 and 2011, respectively. Since our licenses are mostly structured such that we receive a percentage of revenues from our licensees, the foregoing increase or decreases are a direct result of revenues at the licensee level.

We recognize revenues as they are earned, not as they are collected.

Bad Debt Expense

As of December 31, 2012, our New Orleans licensee owed us $54,000 in accrued and unpaid royalties. During the 2012 period, management agreed to write off $35,000 to bad debt and utilize the $14,000 allowance for bad debt in connection with the amount owed by our New Orleans licensee.

Operating Expenses:

Operating expenses for the 2012 period and the 2011 period were $670,719 and $884,195 respectively. These expenses were directly related to the maintenance of the corporate entity and regulatory filing of periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). To comply with the requirements of Sarbanes Oxley, we expect these regulatory costs to increase in future years. Most of the 24% of decrease in operating expenses can be attributed to legal fees and amortization expense that decreased in 2012. Legal expense decreased $132,261, largely attributed to the settlement of the class action lawsuit initiated under the prior management of the Company (S.Diaz, et al. v. Scores Holding Company Inc.). The recovery of $440,000 from prior shareholders as part of the settlement of this case helped offset other expenses. Our business development and other executive administrative costs changed modestly during the 2012 period from the 2011 period, but are expected to increase in future periods due to the proposed expansion of our brand into emerging markets. Our current year amortization of the intangible assets is $0, which decreased from $88,725 in the 2011 period. The intangible asset was fully amortized as of December 31, 2011.

	8

Provision for Income Taxes:

The provision for state income taxes relates primarily to average assets and capital which were not impacted by net operating losses.

Net Income per share:

Our net income for the 2012 year end was $39,090 or $.000 per share versus a net income of $183,627 or $.001 per share for the 2011 year end. During the 2012 period, we increased our royalty revenue by $64,638. Our net income decreased in 2012 by $144,537 due to the 2011 gain on settlement and costs primarily incurred by the settlement of the S.Diaz, et al. v. Scores Holding Company Inc. This material change from the 2011 period to the 2012 period is based on net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average of the common shares outstanding.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2012, we had $59,139 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $8,930 in cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2011.

On February 28, 2007, our then President, Chief Executive Officer, Director and majority stockholder, Richard Goldring resigned from each of his positions, and terminated his employment with us. Under the terms of his employment agreement dated March 31, 2003, we were obligated to pay Mr. Goldring a $1 million termination fee (the “Termination Fee”). Because of our lack of cash and other business-related reasons, we did not pay Mr. Goldring the Termination Fee. On May 10, 2009 Mr. Goldring assigned his right, title and interest in and to the Termination Fee to Robert M. Gans. As further discussed below, we do not expect Mr. Gans to require from us payment of the Termination Fee.

We have incurred cumulative losses since the inception of our business. Since our inception, we have been dependent on funding from private lenders and investors to conduct operations. As of December 31, 2012 we had an accumulated deficit of $(6,558,754). As of December 31, 2012, we had total current assets of $270,341 and total current liabilities of $572,520 or negative working capital of $(302,179). As of December 31, 2011, we had total current assets of $254,259 and total current liabilities of $628,511 or negative working capital of $(374,252). The decrease in the amount of negative working capital has been primarily attributable to the decrease in our related party payable and the settlement of the class action lawsuit in 2011. During the 2012 period, the Company increased its cash position due to the decrease in litigation expense and the increase in royalty revenue.

We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity to fund our operations. We will need to obtain additional capital in order to meet our working needs and to continue to execute our business plan, build our operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or debt securities, or borrow funds from private or institutional lenders. Because of recent problems in the credit markets, steep stock market declines, financial institution failures and government bail-outs, there can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional funding as necessary, we may have to suspend our operations temporarily or cease operations entirely.

We will continue to evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in, businesses, products and technologies that are complimentary to ours. These may require the use of cash, which would also require us to seek financing. We may sell equity or debt securities or seek credit facilities to fund acquisition-related or other business costs. Sales of equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including the success of our adult entertainment licensing business.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure on contingent assets and liabilities at the date of our financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. We believe that our critical accounting policies are limited to those described below. For a detailed discussion on the application of these and other accounting policies see note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.

	9

Revenue Recognition

Revenues for the 2012 period and the 2011 period were derived predominately from royalties. We apply judgment to ensure that the criteria for recognizing revenues are consistently applied and achieved for all recognized sales transactions.

Accounting for Income Taxes

As part of the process of preparing our consolidated financial statements we are required to estimate our income taxes. Professional judgment is required by management in estimating a provision for our deferred tax asset. Because the Company consistently incurred net losses in prior years, a valuation for the full deferred tax asset was recorded based on carry forwards of such net operating losses. This was due to the Company not demonstrating any consistent profitable operations. In the event that the actual results differ from these estimates or we adjust these estimates in future periods, we may need to adjust such valuation recorded.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

(a) Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, consisting of Robert M. Gans, our chief executive officer, and Howard Rosenbluth, our chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded, as of the Evaluation Date, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not sufficiently effective to ensure that the information relating to us required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our acting chief executive officer and chief financial officer and secretary, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In particular, we concluded that because of material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described below, and lack of sufficient resources, as of December 31, 2012, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

The deficiencies in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures resulted in failures to timely file periodic reports within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

In May 2013, the Company engaged a consultant, qualified as a certified public accountant to assist the Company’s controller in preparing periodic reports and the accompanying financial statements. The consultant has also been charged with communicating with management to verify information contained in such reports and statements. The Company intends to take additional corrective action to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company pursuant to the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Management of Scores Holding Company, Inc. is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate system of internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f)). Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. In evaluating the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, management used the criteria set forth in the framework in Internal Control—Integrated Framework and the Internal Control over Financial Reporting – Guidance for Smaller Public Companies both issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).

	10

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the company's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In connection with the preparation of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, our management has identified the following material weaknesses.

Lack of sufficient independent directors to form an audit committee. We did not have a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent directors on our board of directors. We currently have no independent directors on our board, which is comprised of three directors. Although there is no requirement that we have an audit committee, we intend to have a majority of independent directors as soon as we are reasonably able to do so. This lack of a functioning audit committee resulted in our having ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures.

Insufficient segregation of duties in our finance and accounting functions due to limited personnel. During the year ended December 31, 2012, we had one person on staff who performed nearly all aspects of our financial reporting process, including access to the underlying accounting records and systems, the ability to post and record journal entries, and responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements. This creates certain incompatible duties and a lack of review over the financial reporting process that would likely result in a failure to detect errors in spreadsheets, calculations, or assumptions used to compile the financial statements and related disclosures as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These control deficiencies could result in a material misstatement to our interim or annual consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Based on this evaluation and the material weaknesses identified, management concluded that, as of December 31, 2012 our internal controls over financial reporting were not effective, based on the criteria established in "Internal Control-Integrated Framework" issued by the COSO .

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

This annual report does not include an attestation report of our registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management’s report in this annual report.

(b) Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management has identified what it believes are deficiencies in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. The deficiencies in the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures resulted in failures to timely file periodic reports within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

The deficiencies in our disclosure controls and procedures included (i) lack of segregation of duties and (ii) lack of sufficient resources to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

As stated above, on May 28, 2013, we hired a consultant to assist our controller with disclosure controls and procedures. The Company intends to take corrective action to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company pursuant to the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

(c) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter of the period covered by this report that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

PART III

ITEM 10. DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE.

Executive Officers and Directors

The following table sets forth certain information, as of October 25, 2013, with respect to our directors and executive officers.

Directors serve until the next annual meeting of the stockholders, until their successors are elected or appointed and qualified, or until their prior resignation or removal. Officers serve until the next annual meeting of the Board of Directors, until their successors are elected or appointed and qualified, or until their prior resignation or removal.

	11

Name	Positions Held	Age	Date of Election or Appointment as Director
Robert M. Gans	President, Chief Executive Officer and Director	69	August 6, 2010
Martin Gans	Director	77	June 23, 2009
Howard Rosenbluth	Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Director	66	April 21, 2009

The following is a brief account of the business experience during the past five years or more of our directors and executive officer.

Robert M. Gans. Mr. Gans became President, Chief Executive Officer and director on August 6, 2010. For the past forty two years Robert M. Gans has owned and operated companies in the building materials business, as well as gentlemen’s clubs, restaurants, and several commercial and residential real estate properties. Mr. Gans has either been the President, Managing Member, or sole owner of all of the companies in which he has been involved including The Executive Club LLC, a Company operating in the Gentlemen’s club industry. None of the companies was or is a public company. The Board concluded that Mr. Gans should serve as a director of the Company because of his extensive experience in the management and operation of gentlemen’s clubs.

Martin Gans. Martin Gans, who became a director on June 23, 2009, has been retired since 2002. Prior to his retirement, Mr. Gans held managerial positions with The Nassau County Board of Elections, from 1994 to 2002, and with the Metropolitan New York hospitals, from 1990 to 1994. Mr. Gans has a MBA in Health Care Administration from George Washington University and a Bachelor’s degree in Economics from Hunter College. Mr. Gans served in the United States Army where he reached the rank of SP4. The Board concluded that Mr. Gans should serve as a director of the Company because of his managerial experience and the knowledge and experience he has attained through his service as a director of the Company.

Robert Gans and Martin Gans are brothers.

Howard Rosenbluth. Mr. Rosenbluth became our Treasurer, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary on August 6, 2010, and became a director on April 21, 2009. Over the past five years, Mr. Rosenbluth has been an executive officer overseeing the financial operations for Metropolitan Lumber Hardware and Building Supplies, Inc., and The Executive Club LLC, a company operating in the Gentlemen’s club industry. Mr. Rosenbluth received an MBA in Finance in 1975 from the University of Connecticut and has owned a consulting firm, a manufacturing company and a restaurant and has worked in public accounting and consulting for more than 35 years. The Board concluded that Mr. Rosenbluth should serve as a director of the Company because of his financial literacy and expertise, as well as his extensive experience in the management and operation of gentlemen’s clubs.

Board of Directors

None of our directors receives any remuneration for acting as such. Directors may, however, be reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses, if any, for attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors may designate from among its members an executive committee and one or more other committees. No such committees have been established to date. Accordingly, we do not have an audit committee or an audit committee financial expert. Given the small size of the Company’s board of directors and the limited number of independent directors over the Company’s history, the board has determined that it is appropriate for the entire board of directors to act as its audit committee, which has resulted in the directors who are also executive officers serving on its audit committee. Similarly, we do not have a nominating committee or a committee performing similar functions. We have not implemented procedures by which our security holders may recommend board nominees to us, but expect to do so in the future.

Compliance with Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial statements of beneficial ownership on Form 3, reports of changes in ownership on Form 4 and annual reports concerning their ownership on Form 5. Executive officers, directors and greater than 10% stockholders are required by the SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely on the Company’s review of copies of Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto received by it during 2012 and Forms 5 and amendments thereto received by the Company with respect to 2012 and any written representations from certain reporting persons that no Form 5 is required, none of our directors failed to file a required report on Form 3, Form 4 or Form 5 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012.

Director Independence

We are not subject to listing requirements of any national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system which has requirements that a majority of the Board of Directors be “independent” and, as a result, we are not at this time required to have our Board of Directors comprised of a majority of “Independent Directors.”

Code of Ethics

Due to the scope of our current operations, as of December 31, 2012, we have not adopted a code of ethics for financial executives, which include our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or persons performing similar functions. Our decision not to adopt such a code of ethics results from our having only a limited number of officers and directors operating as management. We believe that as a result of the limited interaction which occurs having such a small management structure eliminates the current need for such a code.

	12

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

The following table sets forth information concerning the total compensation paid or accrued by us during the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 to (i) all individuals that served as our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer or acted in similar capacities for us at any time during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 and (ii) all individuals that served as executive officers of ours at any time during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 that received annual compensation during such fiscal years in excess of $100,000 (collectively, the “named executive officers”).

On January 24, 2006, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with AYA International, Inc. (“AYA”) granting AYA the right to use our trademarks in connection with its online video chat website, “Scoreslive.com.” The agreement with AYA provides for royalty payments to be made directly to the Company at the rate of 4.99% of weekly gross revenues from all revenue sources within the AYA website. On December 21, 2009, AYA transferred all of its rights in Scoreslive.com and in its licensing agreement with us to Swan Media Group, Inc. (“SMG”), a newly formed New York corporation whose majority owner is Robert M. Gans, who is also the majority shareholder and Chief executive officer of the Company.

As of July 1, 2008, West Side Realty of New York (WSR), the owner of the West 27th Street Building, became the new lessor of our 700 square feet office occupancy at that location. On April 1, 2009, the monthly rent, which includes overhead cost, was $2,500. As discussed in Note 2 to the Company’s financial statements, a capital contribution has been recorded for personnel services rendered by Mr. Gans in the amount of $30,000 for the year 2012 and 2011. Director Robert M. Gans is the majority owner of WSR. The Company owed WSR $77,500 and $47,500 in unpaid rents as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Mr. Gans owns 66 2/3% of WSR.

On January 27, 2009, the Company entered into a licensing agreement with I.M. Operating LLC (“IMO”) for the use of the Scores brand name “Scores New York.” Robert M.

Director Independence

Our Board of Directors has considered the independence of its directors in reference to the definition of “independent director” established by the Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2). In doing so, the Board has reviewed all commercial and other relationships of each director in making its determination as to the independence of its directors. After such review, the Board has determined that none of our directors qualifies as independent under the requirements of the Nasdaq listing standards.

ITEM 14. PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES.

Audit Fees.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Scores Holding Company, Inc. and subsidiary

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Scores Holding Company, Inc. and subsidiary as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders’ deficiency, and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and cash flows for each of the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that Scores Holding Company, Inc. will continue as a going concern. As more fully described in Note 2, the Company has a working capital deficit as of December 31, 2012. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible effects on the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1. Organization

Scores Holding Company, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a Utah corporation, formed in September 1981 and is located in New York, NY. Originally incorporated under the name Adonis Energy, Inc., the Company is a licensing company that exploits the “Scores” name and trademark for franchising and other licensing options.

The consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Scores Licensing Corp.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Principles

BASIS OF PRESENTATION - Going Concern

The Company has incurred cumulative losses totaling $(6,558,754) a working capital deficit of $(302,179) and a net income of $39,090 at December 31, 2012. Because of these conditions, the Company will require additional working capital to develop business operations. The Company intends to raise additional working capital through the continued licensing of the brand with its current and new operators. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve the level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to support the Company’s working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any future use of licensing, are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company. If adequate working capital is not available, the Company may not increase its operations.

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

Principles of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. Inter-company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

	F-7

SCORES HOLDING COMPANY and Subsidiaries

Years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Cash and cash equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments, with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There are times when cash may exceed $250,000, the FDIC insured limit.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company follows the provisions of ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements which defines fair values, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The Company's financial instruments include licensee receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and related party payable. The fair values of all financial instruments were not materially different from their carrying values.

Licensee receivable and reserves

Accounts deemed uncollectible are applied against the allowance for doubtful accounts. Allowance for doubtful accounts had a balance of $-0- and $14,000 for the December 31, 2012 and 2011 periods. In reviewing any delinquent royalty or note receivable, the Company considers many factors in estimating its reserve, including historical data, experience, customer types, credit worthiness, financial distress and economic trends. From time to time, the Company may adjust its assumptions for anticipated changes in any of above or other factors expected to affect collectability .

Stock Based Compensation

The Company accounts for the plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 718Compensation – Stock Compensation. The standard requires entities to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock options based on the grant-date fair value of the award, and to recognize the cost over the period the employee is required to provide services for the award.

There were no stock options or warrants issued during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, hence the Company has recorded no compensation expense. If the Company were to issue equity rights for compensation, then the Company would recognize compensation expense under Topic 718 over the requisite service period using the Black-Scholes model for equity rights granted.

Revenue recognition

The Company records revenues from its license agreements on a straight line basis over the term of the license agreements. If a license agreement is terminated then the remaining unearned balance of the deferred revenues are recorded as earned if applicable. Revenue is recognized when earned, as products are completed and delivered or services are provided to customers.

Years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Revenues earned under its royalty agreements are recorded as they are earned.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10-25, “Accounting for Income Taxes”. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carry forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

The Company has a net operating loss carryforward of approximately $6,200,000, which expire in the years 2018 through 2032. The related deferred tax asset of approximately $2,764,000 has been offset by a valuation allowance. The Company’s net operating loss carryforwards may have been limited, pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code Section 382, as to the utilization of such net operating loss carryforwards due to changes in ownership of the Company over the years.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Loss per Share

Under ASC 260-10-45, “Earnings Per Share”, basic income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the income (loss) applicable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares assumed to be outstanding during the period of computation. Diluted income (loss) per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period. Accordingly, the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, is the same for purposes of computing both basic and diluted net income per share for such years.

Accounting Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company earned royalties and merchandise revenues from five licensees who are unrelated from management of the Company. During the December 31, 2012 period, revenues earned from royalties and merchandise sales from these unrelated licensees amounted to $693,889 and there was $71,911 due and outstanding as of December 31, 2012. The Company’s New York affiliate revenues increased 8% to $197,892 during the 2012 period from $182,870 during the 2011 period. The Company’s Baltimore club had revenues decrease 2% to $138,781 in the 2012 period from $142,214 in the 2011 period and Chicago revenues increased by 9% to $121,816 in the 2012 period from $112,168 in the 2011 period. In addition, revenues from the Company’s New Orleans nightclub remained the same at $120,000 in the 2012 and 2011 period. The Company’s Tampa Club had revenues increase 33% to $96,000 in the 2012 period from $72,000 in the 2011 period. The Company’s affiliate Swan Media Group, Inc., Scoreslive.com licensee website went live during 2011 and began accruing royalties in the second quarter of 2012. The Scoreslive.com licensee accounts for 1% and 0% of our total revenues for the 2012 and 2011 periods, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update “ASU” 2013-11 on “Presentation of an Unrecognized Tax Benefit When a Net Operating Loss Carryforward, a Similar Tax Loss, or a Tax Credit Carryforward Exists”. The amendments in this ASU are to improve the current U.S. GAAP because they are expected to reduce diversity in practice by providing guidance on the presentation of unrecognized tax benefits and will better reflect the manner in which an entity would settle at the reporting date any additional income taxes that would result from the disallowance of a tax position when net operating loss carryforwards, similar tax losses, or tax credit carryforwards exist. Current U.S. GAAP does not include explicit guidance on the financial statement presentation of an unrecognized tax benefit when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists. This Update applies to all entities that have unrecognized tax benefits when a net operating loss carryforward, a similar tax loss, or a tax credit carryforward exists at the reporting date. The amendments in this Update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively to all unrecognized tax benefits that exist at the effective date. Retrospective application is permitted.

All other new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective or adopted have been deemed not to be relevant to us, hence are not expected to have any impact once adopted.

Note 3. Related-Party Transactions

Transactions with Common ownership affiliates
