Non-cash
investing and financing activities:
During
the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company issued 80,000 shares in
cancellation of legal and accounting fees due totaling $32,000. The shares were
valued at their respective market value on the date of issuance and the Company
recognized a loss on the settlement of debt in the amount of
$16,830.
During
the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company charged $305,278 to equity
relating to the amortization of discounts on related party convertible debts
(See Note 8).
In
October 2008, the Company granted a warrant to an advisor for services. The
warrant allows the advisor to purchase the greater of 5,952,362 common shares or
5.2% of the outstanding shares of the Company, calculated on a fully dilutive
basis. The terms also allow for a cash-exercise. The warrant was originally
valued at $13,831,504 and capitalized as a prepaid expense. It is being charged
to operations over the one year term of the consulting agreement. Based upon the
terms of the warrant, the Company considers it to be a derivative and is
including the fair value of the warrant in its liabilities.
During
the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Company charged $281,882 to equity
relating to the amortization of discounts on related party convertible

Organization, History and Business
Single
Touch Systems Inc. (“the Company’) was incorporated in Delaware on May 31, 2000,
under its original name, Hosting Site Network, Inc. On May 12, 2008,
the Company changed its name to Single Touch Systems Inc.
On July
24, 2008, the Company acquired all of the outstanding shares of Single Touch
Interactive, Inc. (“Interactive”), a company incorporated in the state of Nevada
on April 2, 2002, in exchange for issuing 42,967,554 shares of its common stock.
For financial reporting purposes, the acquisition was treated as a reverse
acquisition whereby Interactive’s operations continue to be reported as if it
had actually been the acquirer. Assets and liabilities continue to be reported
at Interactive’s historical cost, as the Company had nominal assets, liabilities
and operations before the reverse acquisition.
The
Company develops software applications utilized by end users in downloading
images, ringtones, games, and other content into their cell phones and other
wireless communication devices.
On May
27, 2008, Interactive declared a 1-for-2 reverse split of its common
stock. All references in the accompanying financial statements to the
number of shares outstanding and per-share amounts have been restated to reflect
this stock split.
Basis
of Presentation
The
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all
adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the
opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly the financial position of
the Company as of December 31, 2009, and the results of its operations and cash
flows for the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. Certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been
condensed or omitted pursuant to rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). The Company believes that the
disclosures in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are
adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the
unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements included herein should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in
the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2009
filed with the Commission on January 14, 2010.
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual
method of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America and have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities
in the normal course of business. The Company has accumulated operating losses
since its inception (May 31, 2000). In addition, the Company has used
ongoing working capital in its operations. At December 31, 2009, its
accumulated deficit amounted to $103,959,040.
In view
of current matters, the continuation of the Company’s operations is dependent on
revenue from its licensing of its technologies and related services, advances
made by its officers, and the raising of capital through the sale of its equity
instruments or issuance of debt. Management believes that these sources of funds
will allow the Company to continue as a going concern through 2010. However, no
assurances can be made that current or anticipated future sources of funds will
enable the Company to finance future periods’ operations. In light of
these circumstances, substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to
continue as a going concern. These financial statements do not
include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of
recorded assets or liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be
unable to continue as a going concern.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reclassification
Certain
reclassifications have been made to conform the 2008 amounts to 2009
classifications for comparative purposes.
Principles
of Consolidation
The
accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the
Single Touch Systems Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Single Touch
Interactive, Inc, and HSN, Inc. (an inactive company formed in New Jersey on
August 21, 2001). Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in
consolidation.
Revenue
Recognition
The
Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”)
No. 101, Revenue
Recognition in Financial Statements, as revised by SAB No.
104. As such, the Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence
of an arrangement exists, title transfer has occurred, the price is fixed or
readily determinable and collectibility is probable. Sales are
recorded net of sales discounts.
Revenue
is derived from licensing of the Company’s wireless applications to various
telecommunication companies. Under the terms of the various licensing
agreements, the Company receives a fee, net of revenue sharing and other costs,
each time its application is utilized by the end user. Revenue is recognized in
the month the application is utilized. The Company records its revenue pursuant
to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605-45-45 “Reporting Revenue Gross as a
Principal versus Net as an Agent.”
Advanced
licensing fees received with minimum guarantees where it cannot determine the
fee earned are recognized in income on the straight line basis over the term of
the license in accordance with ASC Topic 928-605-25, “Financial Reporting in the Record
and Music Industry.”
In
addition, the Company also generates income through the development of software
for third parties on a contractual basis. Revenue is recognized upon
delivery of the software.
Accounts
Receivable
|
Accounts
receivable is reported at the customers’ outstanding balances less any
allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on
overdue accounts receivable.
Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts
An
allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is charged to
operations in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for
uncollectible accounts at a level management believes is adequate to cover
any probable losses. Management determines the adequacy of the
allowance based on historical write-off percentages and information
collected from individual customers. Accounts receivable are
charged off against the allowance when collectibility is determined to be
permanently impaired. As of December 31, 2009, there was no allowance for
doubtful accounts, since all of the Company’s receivables were determined
by management to be collectible.
Property
and Equipment
Property
and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and
improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements,
maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the
respective assets are expensed. At the time property and
equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related
accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable
amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited
or charged to income.
|
Depreciation
is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods for financial reporting
and income tax reporting purposes based upon the following estimated useful
lives:
Software
development 2- 3 years
Equipment 5
years
Computer
hardware 5 years
Office
furniture 7 years

Long-Lived
Assets
The
Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with ASC Topic
360-10-05, “Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC Topic
360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying
value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses
recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net
cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual
disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying
value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference
between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable
value. At December 31, 2009, the Company determined that none of its
long-term assets were impaired.
Prepaid
Royalties
The Company’s agreements with licensors and developers generally provide it with exclusive publishing rights and require it to make advance royalty payments that are recouped against royalties due to the licensor or developer based on product sales. Prepaid royalties are amortized on a software application-by-application basis, based on the greater of the proportion of current year sales to total current and estimated future sales or the contractual royalty rate based on actual net product sales. The Company continually evaluates the recoverability of prepaid royalties, and charges to operations the amount that management determines is probable that will not be recouped at the contractual royalty rate in the period in which such determination is made or at the time the Company determines that it will cancel a development project. Prepaid royalties are classified as current and non-current assets based upon estimated net product sales within the next year. |
Capitalized
Software Development Costs
The
Company capitalizes internal software development costs subsequent to
establishing technological feasibility of a software application. Capitalized
software development costs represent the costs associated with the internal
development of the Company’s software applications. Amortization of such costs
is recorded on a software application-by-application basis, based on the greater
of the proportion of current year sales to total of current and estimated future
sales for the applications or the straight-line method over the remaining
estimated useful life of the software application. The Company continually
evaluates the recoverability of capitalized software costs and will charge to
operations amounts that are deemed unrecoverable for projects it
abandons.
Issuances Involving Non-cash Consideration
All
issuances of the Company’s stock for non-cash consideration have been assigned a
dollar amount equaling the market value of the shares issued on the date the
shares were issued for such services. The non-cash consideration received
pertains to consulting services.
Stock Based Compensation
The
Company accounts for stock-based compensation under ACS Topic 505-50, formerly
SFAS No. 123R, "Share-Based
Payment” and SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation - Transition and Disclosure - An amendment to SFAS No.
123.” These standards define a fair value based method of
accounting for stock-based compensation. In accordance with SFAS Nos. 123R and
148, the cost of stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date based on
the value of the award and is recognized over the vesting period. The value of
the stock-based award is determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing
model, whereby compensation cost is the excess of the fair value of the award as
determined by the pricing model at the grant date or other measurement date over
the amount that must be paid to acquire the stock. The resulting amount is
charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the
Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.
During the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Company recognized
stock based compensation expense of $1,152,625 and $2,305,251 from the granting
of a common stock warrant to an advisor.
Loss
Per Share
The
Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10,
"Earnings per Share."
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available
to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares
available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic
earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include
the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the
potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were
dilutive. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has not been presented since the
effect of the assumed conversion of warrants and debt to purchase common shares
would have an anti-dilutive effect. Potential common shares as of December 31,
2009 that have been excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share
include 32,369,334 warrants, 8,675,000 options, and $2,417,432 of debt
convertible into 30,217,902 shares of the Company’s common
stock. Potential common shares as of December 31, 2008 that have been
excluded from the computation of diluted net loss per share were 22,328,362
warrants, 8,675,000 options and $2,304,313 of debt convertible into
28,803,913 shares of the Company’s common stock. If such shares were
included in diluted EPS, they would have resulted in weighted-average common
shares of 135,171,175 and 98,335,041 for the three months ended December 31,
2009 and 2008, respectively.

Cash
and Cash Equivalents
For
purpose of the statements of cash flows, the Company considers cash and cash
equivalents to include all stable, highly liquid investments with maturities of
three months or less.
Concentration
of Credit Risk
The
Company primarily transacts its business with one financial institution. The
amount on deposit in that one institution may from time-to-time exceed the
federally insured limit.
During
the three months ended December 31, 2009, significantly all of the Company’s
revenue was generated from contracts with seven customers. During the three
months ended December 31, 2008, significantly all of the Company’s revenue was
generated from contracts with eleven customers.
Use of 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 affects 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.
Convertible Debentures
If the
conversion feature of conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of
conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a
beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF is recorded by the
Company as a debt discount pursuant to ASC Topic 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other
Options.” In those circumstances, the convertible debt is recorded net of
the discount related to the BCF and the Company amortizes the discount to
interest expense or equity (if the debt is due to a related party), over the
life of the debt using the effective interest method.
Income
Taxes
The
Company accounts for its income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740
”Income Taxes”
(formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 109). The method of
accounting for income taxes under ASC 740 is an asset and liability method. The
asset and liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities
and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences
between tax bases and financial reporting bases of other assets
and liabilities.
In
January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued
Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06, Improving Disclosures
about Fair Value Measurements. ASU No. 2010-06 amends FASB Accounting
Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820 and clarifies and provides additional
disclosure requirements related to recurring and non-recurring fair value
measurements and employers’ disclosures about postretirement benefit plan
assets. This ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2009. The adoption of ASU 2010-06 is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial
statements.
In
October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, Multiple-Deliverable Revenue
Arrangements, (amendments to ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition) (“ASU 2009-13”)
(formerly Emerging Issues Task Force Issue 08-1) and ASU 2009-14, Certain
Arrangements That Include Software Elements , (amendments to FASB ASC Topic 985,
Software ) (“ASU 2009-14”) (formerly Emerging Issues Task Force Issue
09-3). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement
using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a
selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue
allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price
method. ASU 2009-14 removes tangible products from the scope of software
revenue guidance and provides guidance on determining whether software
deliverables in an arrangement that includes a tangible product are covered by
the scope of the software revenue guidance. ASU 2009-13 and ASU 2009-14
should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into
or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010,
with early adoption permitted. The Company anticipates adopting ASU 2009-13 and
ASU 2009-14 in fiscal 2011 and is currently assessing the impact of the adoption
of these standards on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial
statements.

Intangible Assets
On June
2, 2009, the Company entered into an Intellectual Property Rights Purchase and
Transfer Agreement (“Agreement”) with Streamworks Technologies, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (“Streamworks”). Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired a
portfolio of sixteen patents and patent applications related primarily to the
management, streaming and routing of electronic media. In consideration for the
portfolio, Streamworks received 3,666,667 common shares of the Company and
warrants to purchase 1,833,334 shares of the Company’s common stock at an
exercise price of $2.30 per share for a period of two years.
In
addition, non-compete agreements were provided to the Company by certain
management of Streamworks and the Company provided Streamworks with registration
rights covering the common shares issued pursuant to the agreement.
The
Company valued the intellectual property at the fair value of the common shares
and warrants provided totaling $5,470,851. The property purchased has not
reached technological feasibility. Therefore, the Company valued the technology
at its estimated fair value of $104,418 and recognized an impairment loss during
the year ended September 30, 2009 of $5,366,433. The Company is amortizing the
technology’s estimated fair value of $104,418 over its seven year estimated
life.
On
December 14, 2009, the Company’s president assigned all of his rights in a
patent and various patent applications for a total of $244,840, which
represented the total legal fees he incurred relating to the property
transferred. Of the $244,840 total, $42,368 is allocated to the cost of the
patent and $202,472 is allocated to the various patent
applications. The Company incurred additional legal fees associated
with the patent applications during the three months ended December 31, 2009 of
$42,368. Costs associated with patent applications are not being amortized. Upon
the issuance of a patent, its respective costs will be amortized over the
patent’s estimated useful life. Costs associated with abandoned applications are
charged to operations.

Income Taxes
As of

through 2029 and future state benefits of approximately $2,369,000 which expire
in various years through 2020.
An
allowance of $11,482,000 has been provided to reduce the tax benefits accrued by

11.
Fair Value
The
Company’s financial instruments consist principally of notes payable,
convertible debentures and a derivative warrant liability. Notes
payable and convertible debentures are financial liabilities with carrying
values that approximate fair value. The Company determines the fair
value of notes payable and convertible debentures based on the effective yields
of similar obligations. The Company determines the fair value of its
derivative warrant liability based upon the trading prices of its common stock
on the date of issuance and when applicable, on the last day of the quarter. The
Company uses the Black-Scholes Option Model in valuing the fair value of its
derivative warrant liability.
The
Company believes all of the financial instruments’ recorded values approximate
fair market value because of their nature and respective durations.
The
Company complies with the provisions of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), previously referred to as SFAS No.
157. ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework for
measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements
required under other accounting pronouncements. ASC 820-10-35, “Fair Value Measurements and
Disclosures - Subsequent Measurement” (“ASC 820-10-35”), clarifies that
fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received from
the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants. ASC 820-10-35 also requires that a fair value
measurement reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an
asset or liability based on the best information available. Assumptions include
the risks inherent in a particular valuation technique (such as a pricing model)
and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the model. The Company
also follows ASC 825 “Interim
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, previously
referred to as FAS 107-1 to expand required disclosures.
ASC
820-10-35 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest
priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy
under ASC 820-10-35 are described below:
Level
1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.
Level
2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities,
quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not
active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable
data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3.
Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or
liabilities.

Deferred Income
In
December 2005, the Company received $2,000,000 in connection with an option
agreement and related service agreement. Under the terms of the option
agreement, the third party payer had until July 30, 2006 to exercise the option
to acquire the Company. The option was not exercised and the $2,000,000 is
treated as an advance against royalties earned by the Company on the use of an
application licensed to the third party payer.
Under the
service agreement, the Company provides the application for the first four
months at no cost, but is entitled to reimbursement for any direct pass through
third party costs paid by the Company relating to the use of the licensed
technology and related service. Thereafter the Company nets $.175 per
transaction on the delivery of any mobile content to the third Party payer
through the utilization of the application for a period of up to three years. As
the $2,000,000 advance is not refundable, the Company is amortizing it into
revenue evenly over the remaining 29 months of the license agreement pursuant to
SFAS No. 50 (ASC Topic 928-10). Therefore on a monthly basis, the Company is
reporting revenue relating to this license agreement the greater of the
transaction fee earned or $68,966 ($2,000,000/29 months). In addition, during
the first four months of the contract, the Company received the revenue
generated under the service agreement as a contingency against future costs
associated with the first four months of the agreement. The amount received
during the four months totaled $488,952. The Company is also amortizing it into
revenue on the straight-line basis pursuant to SFAS No. 50 (ASC Topic
928-10).
Revenue
recognized during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 under this
agreement amounted to $0 and $249,328, respectively.

The

included elsewhere in this report. See also the notes to our consolidated
financial statements and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K
for the year ended September 30, 2009.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make
estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities,
revenues and expenses. In consultation with our Board of Directors, we have
identified the following accounting policies that it believes are key to an
understanding of its financial statements. These are important accounting
policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective
judgments.
Revenue
Recognition.
Under the
terms of various service and licensing agreements, the Company receives a fee,
net of revenue sharing and other costs, each time its application is utilized by
the end user. Revenue is recognized in the month the application is utilized.
The Company records its revenue pursuant to Accounting Codification Standard
(“ACS”) Topic 605-45, formerly EITF 99-19 “Reporting Revenue Gross as
a Principal versus Net as an Agent”.
Advanced
service and licensing fees received with minimum guarantees where it cannot
determine the fee earned are recognized in income on the straight line basis
over the term of the license in accordance with ACS Topic 928-10, formerly FASB
SFAS #50.
Conventional
Convertible Debt
When the
convertible feature of the conventional convertible debt provides for a rate of
conversion that is below market value, this feature is characterized as a
beneficial conversion feature (BCF”). We record a BCF as a debt discount
pursuant to ACS Topic 470-20, formerly EITF Issue No. 98-5 (EITF 98-05”),
Accounting for Convertible Securities with Beneficial Conversion Features or
Contingency Adjustable Conversion Ratio,” and formerly EITF Issue No. 00-27,
Application of EITF Issue No. 98-5 to Certain Convertible Instrument(s) .” In
those circumstances, the convertible debt will be recorded net of the discount
related to the BCF. We amortize the discount to interest expense over the life
of the debt using the effective interest method.
17
Fair
Value Measurement
The
Company adopted ACS Topic 820-10, formerly Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“Topic 820-10”), at the beginning of
fiscal year 2009 to measure the fair value of certain of its financial assets
and liabilities required to be measured on a recurring basis. The adoption of
Topic 820-10 did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or
results of operations. Topic 820-10 establishes a fair value
hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure
fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and
the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3
measurements). Topic 820-10 defines fair value as the price that
would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value
measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the
liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability. The three
levels of the fair value hierarchy under Topic 820-10 are described
below:
Level
1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets
or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access. The Company has no
Level 1 assets or liabilities.
Level
2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities,
quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not
active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable
data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
The
Company has no Level 2 assets. The Company’s Level 2 liabilities
consist of notes payable, convertible debentures and a derivative warrant
liability. The Company determines the fair value of notes payable and
convertible debentures based on the effective yields of similar
obligations. The Company determines the fair value of its derivative
warrant liability based upon the trading prices of its common stock on the date
of issuance and when applicable, on the last day of the quarter. The Company
uses the Black-Scholes Option Model in valuing the fair value of its derivative
warrant liability.
Level 3.
Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity
and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The
Company has no Level 3 assets or liabilities.
Non-monetary
Consideration Issued for Services
We value
all services rendered in exchange for our common stock at the quoted price of
the shares issued at date of issuance or at the fair value of the services
rendered, whichever is more readily determinable. All other services provided in
exchange for other non-monetary consideration is valued at either the fair value
of the services received or the fair value of the consideration relinquished,
whichever is more readily determinable.
Our
accounting policy for equity instruments issued to consultants and vendors in
exchange for goods and services follows the provisions of ACS Topic 505-50,
formerly EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments That are Issued to Other
Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or
Services”, and formerly EITF 00-18, Accounting Recognition for Certain
Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to Other Than Employees.” The
measurement date for the fair value of the equity instruments issued is
determined at the earlier of (i) the date at which a commitment for performance
by the consultant or vendor is reached or (ii) the date at which the consultant
or vendor’s performance is complete. In the case of equity instruments issued to
consultants, the fair value of the equity instrument is recognized over the term
of the consulting agreement. In accordance to ACS Topic 505, an asset acquired
in exchange for the issuance of fully vested, nonforfeitable equity instruments
should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s
balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes.
Accordingly, we record the fair value of nonforfeitable common stock issued for
future consulting services as prepaid services in our consolidated balance
sheet.
Software
Development Costs
We
account for our software development costs in accordance with ACS Topic 985-20,
formerly Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 86, “Accounting for the
Cost of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed.” Under ACS
Topic 985-20, we expense software development costs as incurred until we
determine that the software is technologically feasible. Once we determine that
the software is technologically feasible, we amortize the costs capitalized over
its expected useful life of the software, which is generally two
years.
Plan
of Operation
Single
Touch Systems is a provider of customized easy-to-use wireless solutions.
Our patent pending technology simplifies adoption by reaching new data
subscribers and generating new revenue streams for carriers and content
owners. Single Touch's Abbreviated Dial Code (“ADC”) programs make mobile
easy for brands, consumers and carriers. The simplicity of dialing a ‘#’ plus 3
to 6 digit branded telephone number has resulted in high response and download
conversion rates. A large percentage of ADC consumers are first time data users,
demonstrating how simple it is to deliver mobile data and campaigns through
these ADC programs while also opening up a new market outside of Short Message
Service (“SMS”).
Our ADC
programs are a developing revenue source. We continue to add new ADC clients and
believe the ADC campaigns will continue to evolve beyond ringtone and other
media content downloads. Recently developed programs involve non-mobile services
campaigns providing value added services to traditional retail customers; like
notifying pharmacy customers that a prescription is ready for pick up. We are
also developing mobile couponing and other services to address a broader market
application of mobile data services.
Our focus
of operations for the next 12-month period will be to develop our business
segments focusing on growing operations in each product category including
ringtones, mobile applications and mobile couponing to generate revenues. We
intend to use profits from operations to maintain and grow each product
category. We will continue our efforts to raise additional capital to maintain
existing and generate expanded operations.

Results
of Operations
Results of Operations for
the Three-Months Ended December 31, 2009 and December 31,
2008
The
Company reports a net loss of $2,754,690 for the three-months ended December 31,
2009 versus a net loss of $4,170,750 for the three-month period ending December
31, 2008.
The net
loss for the three-month period ended December 31, 2009 includes stock based
compensation of $1,152,625; changes in fair value of derivative liability
expense of $798,600; salary and wages totaling $228,610; and depreciation and
amortization expense of $117,854. Revenues for the period were
$26,902.
The net
loss for the three-month period ended December 31, 2008 includes stock based
compensation of $2,305,251; changes in fair value of derivative and warrant
liability expense of $1,029,759; and salary and wages totaling $492,049.
Revenues for the period were $519,235.
We had
decreased royalties and application costs for the three months ended December
31, 2009 as compared to the same three month period in 2008 of $ $64,659, a 30%
decrease ($150,168 in 2009 compared to $214,827 in 2008). This
decrease was significantly caused by a reduction in our fixed applications
costs.
Our
largest expense during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was
stock based compensation of $1,152,625 which amounted to 61% of the total
operating expenses in 2009 and $2,305,251, which amounted to 64% of total
operating expenses in 2008. The stock based compensation expense was due to the
granting of warrants to a special advisor to purchase our common stock at a
price of $2.10 when on the date of grant our common shares were trading at
$3.00. The warrants were valued pursuant to ACS Topic 505-50 using the
Black-Sholes Option Model. Our operating expenses during the three months ended
December 31, 2009, exclusive of stock based compensation, were actually lower
than the amount of operating expenses incurred during the same three month
period in 2008 by $544,756 (a 42% decrease). The majority of the reduction was
due to lower royalties and application costs as discussed above, salaries and
wages ($228,610 in 2009 as compared to $492,049 in 2008), advisory and
consulting services ($45,400 in 2009 as compared to $123,653 in 2008),
depreciation and amortization ($117,854 in 2009 as compared to $168,632 in 2008)
and general and administrative expenses ($46,645 in 2009 as compared to $134,398
in 2008)
Another
large expense during the three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 was the
change in the fair value of our derivative liability which amounted to $798,600
in 2009 and $1,029,759 in 2008. The terms of the warrant issued to
our special advisor as discussed above causes us to treat the warrant as a
derivative financial instrument pursuant to ACS Topic 815, formerly EITF 00-19
“Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments Indexed to, and Potentially
Settled in, a Company's Own Stock”. We value the warrant using the Black-Sholes
Option Model. The fair value of the warrant liability increased during the three
months ended December 31, 2009 by $798,600, thus an increase in our derivative
liability and the charge to operations.
Revenues
Revenues
for the three month period ending December 31, 2009 were $26,902, resulting in a
decrease of 95% from revenues of $519,235 for the comparable period in 2008. The
revenue decrease in the three month period ended December 31, 2009 from the
comparative period in 2008 was a result of the termination of our services to
Telegence, Lavalife, and Jamster. Additionally, our agreement with Motricity,
Inc. expired December 17, 2008. Motricity revenues during the three months ended
December 31, 2008 represented approximately 48% of our revenues for the three
months in 2008.
Changes in assets and
liabilities
At
December 31, 2009, we had total assets of $1,269,819 and total liabilities
of $11,977,626; comparably, at December 31, 2008, we had total assets of
$13,301,049 and total liabilities of $18,238,413. Of the total assets at
December 31, 2008 of $13,301,049, $11,526,253 pertains to the unamortized
portion of the fair value of the warrants issued to our special advisor that was
classified to prepaid expense. We are amortizing the fair value of the warrant
over the initial one year term of the consulting agreement. Total assets at
December 31, 2008, excluding the prepaid consulting amounts to $1,774,796, which
is $504,977 more that our total assets in 2009 of $1,269,819. The $504,977
difference is principally made of a decrease in our cash balance of $263,802 and
a decrease in our accounts receivable balance of $222,252.
Of the
total liabilities at December 31, 2009 of $11,977,626, $5,511,000 pertains to
the derivative liability of the above indicated warrant. Of the total
liabilities at December 31, 2008 of $18,238,413, $14,861,262 pertains
to the derivative liability of the above indicated warrant. Total liabilities at
December 31, 2009 and 2008 excluding the derivative warrant liabilities totaled
$6,466,626 and $3,377,151, respectively. The increase in 2009 over 2008 is due
to the amount we owe on related party and third party debt.
Liquidity and Capital
Resources
During
the three-month period ending December 31, 2009 cash used in operating
activities totaled $691,385; cash used in investing activities totaled $381,167,
for purchase of capitalized software development costs of $137,538 and patent
and patent application costs of $243,629 acquired from the Company’s President;
and, cash provided by financing activities from proceeds from the issuance of
shares of our common stock totaled $875,000. During the same three-month period,
the Company repaid $30,000 to Activate Inc. We had an overall net decrease in
cash for the period of $227,552; where the beginning balance for the period was
$259,558, the cash balance at the end of the period was $32,006.
During
the three-month period ending December 31, 2008 cash used in operating
activities totaled $854,947; cash used in investing activities totaled $248,276,
for purchase of capitalized software development costs of $238,101 and property
and equipment of $10,175. During the same three-month period we
received $1,557,201 in cash from financing activities, including borrowings of
$257,201 from our Founder/CEO, Anthony Macaluso, $50,000 from an unrelated third
party, and $1,250,000 from two unrelated third parties. During the period the
Company repaid $323,231 to Mr. Macaluso and paid $10,000 in loan fees to an
unrelated party, the resultant overall net increase in cash for the period was
$120,747; where the beginning balance for the period was $175,061, the cash
balance at the end of the period was $295,808.
19
Our
operations have been funded through loans from our Founder/CEO Anthony Macaluso,
loans from third parties, and proceeds from the issuance of our shares of common
stock. We have not generated sufficient revenue to pay for our operations. We
expect to experience cash flow difficulties for an indefinite period. Although
no assurances can be given, we believe that our cash flow deficit will improve
as revenues and sales increase. In addition, although no assurances can be
given, we believe that we may be able to secure additional equity and/or debt
financing.
A
critical component of our operating plan impacting our continued existence is
the ability to obtain additional capital through additional equity and/or debt
financing. We do not anticipate enough positive internal operating cash flow
until such time as we can generate substantial additional revenues and/or
improve profit margins on those overall revenues, which may take the next few
years to fully realize. In the event we cannot obtain the necessary capital to
pursue our strategic plan, we may have to significantly curtail our operations.
This would materially impact our ability to continue operations.
Our near
term cash requirements are anticipated to be offset through the receipt of funds
from private placement offerings and loans obtained through private sources.
Since inception, we have financed cash flow requirements through debt financing
and issuance of common stock for cash and services. As we expand operational
activities, we may continue to experience net negative cash flows from
operations and will be required to obtain additional financing to fund
operations through common stock offerings and bank borrowings to the extent
necessary to provide working capital.
Over the
next twelve months we believe that existing capital and anticipated funds from
operations will not be sufficient to sustain operations and planned expansion.
Consequently, we will be required to seek additional capital in the future to
fund growth and expansion through additional equity or debt financing or credit
facilities. No assurance can be made that such financing would be available, and
if available it may take either the form of debt or equity. In either case, the
financing could have a negative impact on our financial condition and our
Stockholders.
We may
continue to incur operating losses over the next twelve months. Our operating
history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain.
Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and
difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stages of
development. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving and
unpredictable business model and the management of growth. To address these
risks we must, among other things, obtain a customer base, implement and
successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continue to develop
and upgrade technology and products, respond to competitive developments, and
attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that
we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can
have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition
and results of operations.
Going
Concern
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis,
which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in
the normal course of business. Based upon current operating levels, we may
require additional capital or significant reconfiguration of our operations to
sustain our operations for the foreseeable future. The financial statements
do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification
of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a
going concern. Our continuation as a going concern is dependent upon our ability
to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our obligations on a timely basis and
ultimately to attain profitability. We have limited capital with which to pursue
our business plan. There can be no assurance that our future operations will be
significant and profitable, or that we will have sufficient resources to meet
our objectives. We are partially dependent upon our officers and other insiders
to provide working capital. However, there can be no assurance that these loans
and capital advances will continue in the future. We intend to generate
sufficient revenues from our line of wireless products and services to fund our
business plan. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in raising
additional funds.

no off-balance sheet arrangements or financing activities with special purpose

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The
Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, Mr.
Macaluso, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls
and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to
Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive
Officer and Chief Financial Officer has concluded that, as of the end of the
period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange
Act reports is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely
manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow
timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes
in Internal Controls
There has
been no change in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that
occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial
reporting.
Internal
control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent
limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be
effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been
detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed
to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation

Proceedings
On April
7, 2009, Teligence (U.S.), Inc. served the Company a complaint arising from an
agreement between them as successors in interest and our wholly owned subsidiary
Single Touch Interactive. The complaint was filed in the First Judicial District

Touch Interactive, Inc., et. al., Case No.: 0900 001271B.
The plaintiff is seeking recovery from an alleged Breach of Contract to collect
claimed past due amounts payable by Single Touch Interactive, Inc of
approximately $350,000. In December 2009, the parties agreed to
settle the dispute. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, the Company is
required to pay $200,000 in four monthly installments of $50,000 commencing in
January 2010. If the $200,000 is not paid as indicated, the balance increases to
$300,000 plus attorney fees. As of the date of this report we have made two of
the four payments as required.
On
December 8, 2009, the Company received notice of Arbitration RE: Fort Ashford
Funds, LLC vs. Single Touch Systems & Macaluso through Judicate West case
#A157734-24. The matter relates to outstanding balance of Principal and interest

request for deposit for arbitration fees has been received and no dates are
pending. The Company has been in continuing negotiations with the note holder to
resolve the outstanding note balance, a final agreement has not been executed
and as of the date of this report.
From time
to time the Company may be named in claims arising in the ordinary course of
business. Currently, no additional legal proceedings or claims are pending
against or involve the Company that, in the opinion of management, could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business and
financial condition.
