ITEM I: BUSINESS

 

PART 1 - DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

 

Corporate History and Overview

 

Ksix Media Holdings, Inc. (“KSIX Holdings” or “the Company”), incorporated in Nevada on August 18, 2006, is a digital advertising agency conglomerate serving customers worldwide online and across social media, gaming and mobile platforms. The Company seeks to acquire other niche marketing companies to grow market share and increase efficiency as part of an accretive strategy in the highly fragmented digital advertising sector.

 

The Company was previously known as North American Energy Resources, Inc. (“NAER”). Prior to April 27, 2015, the Company operated solely as an independent oil and natural gas company engaged in the acquisition, exploration and development of oil and natural gas properties and the production of oil and natural gas through its wholly owned subsidiary, North American Exploration, Inc. On April 27, 2015, NAER entered into a Share Exchange Agreement with Ksix Media, Inc. (“KSIX Media”) whereby KSIX Media became a wholly-owned subsidiary of NAER and which resulted in the shareholders of KSIX Media owning approximately 90% of the voting stock of the surviving entity. While the Company continued the oil and gas operations of NAER following this transaction, on August 4, 2015, the Company changed its name to Ksix Media Holdings, Inc.

 

Both prior to and following this transaction, KSIX Media operated two wholly-owned subsidiaries, Ksix, LLC (“KSIXLLC”) and Blvd Media Group, LLC (“BLVD”). Both of these companies were acquired by Ksix Media, Inc. from Paywall, Inc. on or about December 18, 2014 pursuant to the terms of a “Membership Interest Purchase Agreement”. Pursuant such agreement, KSIX Media, Inc. assumed the remaining balance owed to under a Promissory Note to a third party in the original face amount of $362,257. As of December 31, 2016, the then amount outstanding on the Promissory Note was $68,973. Effective April 1, 2016, the Company temporarily suspended its BLVD business operations and is reviewing a potential discontinuation of the business.

 

On October 15, 2015, KSIXLLC acquired DigitizeIQ, LLC (“DIQ”), a digital advertising company which is a full service digital advertising agency specializing in survey generation and landing page optimization specifically designed for mass tort class action lawsuits.

 

KSIXLLC was created as an advertising network designed to create revenue streams for affiliates and provide advertisers with increased measurable audience through targeted cross-platform marketing strategies. KSIXLLC provides performance based marketing solutions to drive traffic and conversions within a Cost-Per-Lead (“CPl”) business model. The KSIXLLC online advertising network works directly with advertisers and other networks to promote advertiser campaigns. KSIXLLC manages offer tracking, reporting and distribution on the third-party platform.

 

KSIXLLC deals with incentive based advertising. Incentive based advertising occurs when a user viewing the advertisement gets some sort of reward for participating in the advertisers offer. These types of transactions are demonstrated frequently in online/mobile video games where users need in game currency to purchase an in-game item. Online and mobile games will pay the users a certain amount of their game currency to participate with the advertisers offer to keep the user engaged in the game for free. Once the user completes the needed task with the advertisers offer, the advertiser pays us a commission for the action or lead generated and we split that commission with the game owner.

 

KSIXLLC will garner additional revenue through branding, graphic design, web development, mobile software application development, search engine optimization, and social media curation offering a full in-house suite of creative and marking services.

True Wireless, LLC

 

Master Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock, Management, and Control

 

On or about December 7, 2016, the Company, entered into a Master Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock, Management, and Control (the “Exchange Agreement”) with True Wireless, LLC, an Oklahoma Limited Liability Company (“TW”) and the members of TW (the “Members”). Hereinafter, the Company, TW, and its Members may be referred to as a “Party” individually or collectively as the “Parties”.

 

TW’s primary business operation is a full-service telecommunications company specializing in the Lifeline program as set forth by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, and regulated by the FCC which provides subsidized mobile phone services for low income individuals (“Lifeline Services”). TW currently has an FCC license to offer Lifeline Services in the following states: Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Maryland, Texas, and Arkansas.

 

Kevin Brian Cox (“Cox”), a resident of the State of Tennessee, is the sole owner of all of TW’s issued and outstanding membership interests, either directly or indirectly through EWP Communications, LLC, a Tennessee limited liability company, the beneficial owner of which is Cox.

 

Additionally, pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Company executed and entered into a “Management and Marketing Agreement” (“Management Agreement”) with TW (see below).

 

Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Company agreed to enter into a Management Agreement with TW whereby the Company would act as the manager of TW until such time as the Exchange Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereunder are approved by the FCC. Following such approval (which has not occurred as of the date of this Report), the Parties will hold a final closing of the Exchange Agreement and TW would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (collectively, the “Transaction”).

 

First Addendum to Master Agreement for the Exchange of Equity, Management, and Control

 

On March 30, 2017, the Parties executed a First Addendum to the Exchange Agreement extending the time for all material deadlines contemplated therein to be completed by May 1, 2017.

 

Amended Master Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock, Management, and Control

 

On July 18, 2017, the Parties entered into an Amended Master Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock, Management, and Control (the “Amended Exchange Agreement”) which amended and restated the Exchange Agreement. The Amended Exchange Agreement reset certain of the milestones and timetables detailed in the Exchange Agreement. The material terms of the Amended Exchange Agreement are as follows:

 

TERMS

 

  The Management Agreement would commence on July 18, 2017, concurrent with the execution of the Amended Exchange Agreement (the “Management Closing”);
     
  All other terms and conditions with respect to the Transaction set forth in this Amended Exchange Agreement required to be completed by the Parties would occur only after all required governmental and regulatory approvals of the Transaction have been delivered. At that time, the Parties agreed to complete the Company’s acquisition of TW (the “Equity Closing”). The Parties agreed to expedite preparation of all financial information and audits to be completed at the earliest feasible time.
     
  The Equity Closing is subject to the completion of due diligence by all Parties to the Amended Exchange Agreement;
     
  The Transaction (including the Equity Closing) is subject to delivery by the Parties of all documents required under the Amended Exchange Agreement;

 

4

 

 

  The Company and TW agreed to take all necessary corporate actions to authorize the Management and Equity Closings; and
     
  It was intended that the transaction underlying the Amended Exchange Agreement would qualify for United States federal income tax purposes as a re-organization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. However, both Parties recognized that in the event the transaction underlying this Agreement does not qualify for United States federal income tax purposes as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, each party is separately responsible for any tax consequences and indemnifies and holds harmless the other party from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, assessments, judgments, damages, costs, losses and expenses, resulting from the that Parties failure to pay their tax liability for this transaction.

 

CLOSINGS

 

THE MANAGEMENT CLOSING

 

The Management Closing occurred on July 18, 2017 pursuant to the following material terms or actions which were approved by the Parties:

As of the date of this Report, 12 million shares of Company Common Stock have been issued to Cox and assigns and an additional 102 Million shares of Company Common Stock will be delivered (as directed by Cox) at the Equity Closing;
     
  The Company also agreed to an anti-dilution provision (the “Anti-Dilution Provision”) whereby it would issue such number of additional shares at the Equity Closing as would be necessary to maintain Cox’s percentage ownership of Company Common Stock at the time of the Equity Closing at 69.5% (“Cox Percentage”). This provision applies with respect to any additional stock, warrants or other security issued by the Company prior to the Equity Closing;
     
  It was agreed that 75% of Carter Matzinger’s (“Matzinger”) Series “A” Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) containing specified majority common stock voting rights of the Company would be transferred by Matzinger to Cox upon execution of the Amended Exchange Agreement. This agreement was subsequently amended to provide for the transfer of 100% of the Series A Preferred Stock by Matzinger to Cox;
     
  It was agreed that, at the Post Equity Closing, Matzinger would submit for cancellation and retirement all of his (or his assigns) shares of Company Common Stock in excess of 14 million shares.

General Business Strategy:

 

The Company intends to grow by strategic acquisition of niche companies which demonstrate performance-based success in specific digital advertising and marketing platforms and other related industries. Because digital advertising and online marketing strategies are inherently low yield, the ability to make even small gains in efficiency benefits the Company and its network of partners and affiliates exponentially.

 

Employees and Labor Relations

 

At December 31, 2016, we had seven full-time employees and three consultants. We plan to add corporate and managerial staff as necessary consistent with the growth of our operations.

 

We plan to concentrate on the acquisition of companies where the employees are not, and have not historically been, members of unions. However, there is no assurance that any company that we acquire will not be the subject of a successful unionization vote.

ITEM 2: DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTIES

 

The Company leases office space at 6795 S.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

The following is summary of threatened, pending, asserted or un-asserted claims against the Company or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries.

 

Claims by River North Equity, LLC against KSIX Media Holdings, Inc.:

 

On June 29, 2017, River North Equity, LLC (“River North Equity”) filed suit against the Company and Carter Matzinger in the Circuit Court of the 18th Judicial District of DuPage County in Wheaton, IL (Case # 2017AR000989) arising out of an Equity Purchase Agreement the Company entered into with River North Equity on July 11, 2016. The Complaint alleges that the Company entered into a series of convertible promissory notes in the aggregate face amount of $177,500 and that these notes are presently in default. The Complaint also alleges that the Company failed to maintain sufficient authorized capital to allow for conversion of the promissory notes; failed to honor conversion notices delivered with respect to the promissory notes; failed to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to shares issuable on conversion of the promissory notes and failed to properly disclose the existence of the promissory notes and relevant details in its filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. River North Equity is seeking damages in the amount of at least $27,500 plus accrued interest and such other damages as may be proven at trial. The Company is in discussions with River North Equity regarding a potential resolution of this matter, however, there is no guarantee that this matter can be resolved on any basis which is favorable to the Company, if at all. The $27,500 plus accrued interest is included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2016.

 

Claims by TCA Global Credit Master Fund, L.P.

 

On or about May 9, 2017, TCA Global Credit Master Fund, L.P. (“TCA”) filed a civil action in Broward County Florida against the Company and its subsidiaries regarding an outstanding balance due under a Senior Secured Debt Facility Agreement dated February 26, 2016. The balance carried by the Company on account of the Senior Secured Debt Facility Agreement at December 31, 2016 was $261,043. The Company has retained counsel in Florida and is defending this action. The Company disputes this balance and has filed a counterclaim against TCA and related parties it believes may be responsible for the alleged default. While settlement discussions are in process, there is no guarantee that this matter can be resolved on any basis which is favorable to the Company.

 

Claims by American Express Bank FSB:

 

On or about August 26, 2016 American Express Bank FSB (“American Express”) filed a civil complaint against DIQ and Scott Kaplan (an employee of the Company) in the District Court for Clark County, Nevada for approximately $336,726 due on a credit card issued to DIQ, which was allegedly guaranteed by Scott Kaplan, the vice president of business development for KSIX, LLC. This action was subsequently dismissed on July 19, 2017. While the Company was not a party to this action, ostensibly there could be an obligation on the part of the Company to indemnify Mr. Kaplan on this matter. As of this date, no claim for indemnification has been made against the Company and the Company seeks to resolve any issues relating to this matter on an amicable basis without incurring any liability. Failure to resolve this matter could potentially have a material adverse effect on the Company and its business. There is no guarantee that this matter can be resolved on any basis which is favorable to the Company.

PART II

 

ITEM 5: MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

 

Market Information

 

Our Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, is traded in the OTC Markets Inc. Pink Current Information Tier (“Pink Sheets”) under the symbol “KSIX.” Until we began trading on July 24, 2007, there was no public market for our common stock.

 

On March 31, 2015, the Company effected a 1 for 23 reverse stock split. All share references included herein have been adjusted as if the change took place before the date of the earliest transaction reported.

 

The following table sets forth the quarterly high and low daily close for our common stock as reported by the OTCBB for the two years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. The bids reflect inter dealer prices without adjustments for retail mark-ups, mark-downs or commissions and may not represent actual transactions. There is a very limited market for the Company’s common stock.

 

Period ended   High   Low 
December 31, 2016   $0.450   $0.050 
September 30, 2016   $0.134   $0.060 
June 30, 2016   $0.204   $0.097 
March 31, 2016   $0.450   $0.060 
            
December 31, 2015   $0.550   $0.110 
September 30, 2015   $0.400   $0.200 
June 30, 2015   $0.750   $0.050 
March 31, 2015   $0.230   $0.138 

 

The Pink Sheets is a quotation service sponsored by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) that displays real-time quotes and volume information in over-the-counter (“OTC”) equity securities. The Pink Sheets does not impose listing standards or requirements, does not provide automatic trade executions and does not maintain relationships with quoted issuers. A company traded on the Pink Sheets may face loss of market makers and lack of readily available bid and ask prices for its stock and may experience a greater spread between the bid and ask price of its stock and a general loss of liquidity with its stock. In addition, certain investors have policies against purchasing or holding OTC securities. Both trading volume and the market value of our securities have been, and will continue to be, materially affected by the trading on the Pink Sheets.

 

Penny Stock Considerations

 

Our shares will be “penny stocks” as that term is generally defined in the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 to mean equity securities with a price of less than $5.00. Our shares thus will be subject to rules that impose sales practice and disclosure requirements on broker-dealers who engage in certain transactions involving a penny stock.

 

Under the penny stock regulations, a broker-dealer selling a penny stock to anyone other than an established customer or accredited investor must make a special suitability determination regarding the purchaser and must receive the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the sale, unless the broker-dealer is otherwise exempt. Generally, an individual with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000, or annual income exceeding $100,000 individually or $300,000 together with his or her spouse, is considered an accredited investor. In addition, under the penny stock regulations the broker-dealer is required to:

 

9

 

 

  Deliver, prior to any transaction involving a penny stock, a disclosure schedule prepared by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to the penny stock market, unless the broker-dealer or the transaction is otherwise exempt;
     
  Disclose commissions payable to the broker-dealer and our registered representatives and current bid and offer quotations for the securities;
     
  Send monthly statements disclosing recent price information pertaining to the penny stock held in a customer’s account, the account’s value and information regarding the limited market in penny stocks; and
     
  Make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction, prior to conducting any penny stock transaction in the customer’s account.

 

Because of these regulations, broker-dealers may encounter difficulties in their attempt to sell shares of our common stock, which may affect the ability of selling shareholders or other holders to sell their shares in the secondary market and have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in the secondary market. These additional sales practice and disclosure requirements could impede the sale of our securities, if our securities become publicly traded. In addition, the liquidity for our securities may decrease, with a corresponding decrease in the price of our securities. Our shares in all probability will be subject to such penny stock rules and our shareholders will, in all likelihood, find it difficult to sell their securities.

KSIX provides performance based marketing solutions to drive traffic and conversions within a Cost-Per-Lead (“CPL”) business model. KSIX works directly with advertisers and other networks to promote advertiser campaigns through their affiliates. KSIX’ revenues represented 35% of 2016 consolidated revenues and 71% of 2015 consolidated revenues. On a pro forma basis KSIX represented 31% of 2015 consolidated proforma revenues. KSIX revenues declined $865,161 (43%) in 2016 from the 2015 amount due to a shift in advertisers and affiliates to drive leads.

 

BLVD worked with online games and web publishers utilizing its proprietary Offer Wall that promoted hundreds of different advertiser’s campaigns on a single web page. Historically BLVD revenues amounted to 0% of 2016 consolidated revenues and 8% of 2015 consolidated revenues. On a pro forma basis BLVD represented 3% of 2015 consolidated pro forma revenues. BLVD revenues declined $226,706 (98%) in 2016 from the 2015 amount. The decline in BLVD revenues is primarily the result of a switch in demand from desktop games to mobile games and Effective April 1, 2016, the Company temporarily suspended its BLVD business operations and is reviewing a potential discontinuation of the business.

DIQ is a full service digital advertising agency specializing in survey generation and landing page optimization specifically designed for mass tort action lawsuits. DIQ revenues represented 65% of 2016 consolidated revenues and 21% of 2015 consolidated revenues. On a pro forma basis, DIQ represented 66% of 2015 consolidated pro forma revenues. DIQ revenue declined $2,165,193 (50%) in 2016 from the 2015 pro forma amount due to the loss of a major advertiser.

 

Cost of revenue for DIQ was 80.8%, 155.7% and 89.5% for 2016 historical, 2015 historical and 2015 pro forma, respectively. Cost of revenue for KSIX was 52.6%, 66.5% and 66.5% for 2016 historical, 2015 historical and 2015 pro forma, respectively. Cost of revenue for BLVD was 30.3%, 34.0% and 34.0% for 2016 historical, 2015 historical and 2015 pro forma, respectively. During the shortened historical period for DIQ, the Company experienced a learning curve when taking over the new operation which resulted in the cost exceeding the revenue.

 

Costs and expenses during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:

 

    Years ended December 31,     Pro Forma  
    2016     2015     2015  
                   
Depreciation and amortization   $ 433,118     $ 501,091     $ 928,777  
Asset impairment     372,706       -       -  
Selling, general and administrative     3,269,270       1,320,535       2,350,850  
Total   $ 4,075,094     $ 1,821,626     $ 3,279,627  

 

Depreciation and amortization in 2016 and 2015 is primarily the amortization of intangible assets which commenced December 23, 2014 (Ksix Media, Inc. and BLVD) and October 12, 2015 (DIQ), when acquired. Depreciation and amortization in 2016 amounted to $433,118 as compared to $501,091 in the 2015 historical period. Amortization for DIQ in 2015 amounted to $118,373. After completing the appraisal, the DIQ amortization for 2016 was $137,346. This amount was reduced by $88,270 which is the amount the 2015 amortization declined as a result of the appraisal. Accordingly, the net expense recorded in 2016 associated with DIQ amortization was $49,076.

 

The Company determined to not continue the operations of BLVD in 2016 temporarily. In addition, due to declining cash flow, the Company impaired the remaining net intangible assets of $372,706 associated with its KSIX, LLC and BLVD operations.

    Years ended December 31,     Pro Forma  
    2016     2015     2015

Total   $ 3,269,270     $ 1,320,535     $ 2,350,850  

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1,948,735 in 2016 as compared to 2015, due to the short period DIQ was owned in the 2015 year. On a proforma basis, selling, general and administrative expense increased $918,420 (39.0%) in 2016 as compared to 2015. The following explains the changes in specific expenses from 2015 to 2016 on a pro forma basis.

 

  Payroll and payroll taxes decreased $163,080 (24.3%) in the 2016 year as compared to 2015. This is primarily due to the elimination of DIQ’s payroll and payroll taxes from $152,144 in the 2016 year to $0 in the 2016. DIQ used contractors and consultants exclusively in 2016.
  Outside contractors and consultants increased $615,469 (70.8%) in 2016 from the pro forma amount in 2015. The increase is primarily due to issuing common stock to consultants for prior services which were valued at $516,600.
  Bad debt expense decreased from $202,496 in the 2015 period to $36,954 in the 2016 year. This decrease is primarily the result of no bad debt expense for DIQ in 2016 and less bad debt expense in 2016 for Ksix with $105,090 for DIQ in 2015 and an increased level for Ksix bad debt expense of $97,406 in 2015.
  Officer compensation amounted to $451,913 in 2016 and $39,219 in 2015 and includes stock awards. The 2015 amount is amortization of the value of stock options issued to Mr. Matzinger. This amortization amounted to $261,913 in 2016. In addition, the 2016 amount includes $190,000 for the value of preferred stock issued to Mr. Matzinger for prior services.
  Professional services increased from $153,389 in 2015 to $435,732 in 2016, and increase of $282,343 (184.1%). The increase includes $112,500 associated with the value of common stock issued to the Company’s attorney pursuant to a legal services agreement. Other increases are primarily due to the increased volume of legal services required for new debt and acquisitions.
  Webhosting and internet costs increased from $54,123 in 2015 and $100,420 in 2016, an increase of $46,297 (85.5%) due to additional 3rd party software being used and Amazon server expenses.
  Advertising and marketing costs amounted to $73,924 in 2016 and $36,601 in 2015, an increase of $37,323 (102.0%), primarily as a result of an increase in focused advertising of $49,548 at DIQ to attract new clients.
  Insurance costs amounted to $44,345 in 2016 as compared to $44,816 in 2015.
  Dues and subscriptions amounted to $32,091 in 2016 and $32,924 in 2015.
  Rent expense in 2016 amounted to $20,490 and $33,746 in 2015, a decrease of $13,256 (39.3%). The majority of this decrease was associated with DIQ whose rent expense was eliminated with the move of operations into the Ksix Holdings offices.
  Other selling, general and administrative expenses amounted to $79,604 in 2016 and $212,129 in 2015, a decrease of $132,525 (62.5%). The majority of the decrease is associated with the operations of DIQ, which amounted to $129,878 in 2015 and $29,247 in 2016.

Other income (expense) during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 is as follows:

 

    Years ended December 31,     Pro Forma  
    2016     2015     2015  
                   
Interest expense   $ (1,660,338 )   $ (15,201 )   $ (15,201 )
Other income     5,844       65       65  
Change in fair value of derivatives     268,236       -       -  
Loss on debt settlement     (107,104 )     -       -  
Total   $ (1,493,362 )   $ (15,136 )   $ (15,136 )

 

Interest expense increased to $1,660,338 in 2016 from $15,201 in 2015. The 2016 amount includes $163,788 in interest accrued on notes payable and long-term debt and $30,000 in loan penalty. The remaining $1,466,550 represents the amortization of loan costs and debt discounts associated with the derivative liabilities which are determined from the Company’s convertible debt.

 

Other income in 2016 represents the recovery of a bad debt written off in 2015.

 

The change in value of derivatives occurred in 2016 for the first time when the Company issued convertible debt which resulted in recording a derivative liability. The change results from revaluing the derivative at the quarterly balance sheet dates.

 

The loss on debt settlement arose in 2016 when the Company issued common stock for convertible notes payable.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND GOING CONCERN

 

The Company is presently financing its cash needs through private sales of equity and long-term debt. The Company is also attempting to restructure its existing debt. There is no guarantee that these efforts will be successful in part or at all. The Company is in a growth mode, which results in increasing receivables and intermittent cash shortages. On October 12, 2015, the Company acquired DigitizeIQ, LLC, which had a total of $1,000,000 in cash requirements over the subsequent 150 days. As of December 31, 2016, the Company has made $515,000 of the required payments and still owes $485,000. The Company is negotiating with the seller of DIQ to reduce and restructure these payments.

 

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, our current assets were $758,837 and $346,043, respectively, and our current liabilities were $4,059,894 and $2,597,008, respectively, which resulted in a working capital deficit of $3,301,057 and $2,250,965, respectively.

 

Total assets at December 31, 2016 and 2015 amounted to $2,357,246 and $2,626,823, respectively. At December 31, 2016, assets consisted of current assets of $758,837, property and equipment of $14,432, net intangible assets of $217,195, goodwill of $866,782 and $500,000 in deposits on investments, as compared to current assets of $346,043, property and equipment of $14,422 and net intangible assets of $2,266,358 at December 31, 2015.

 

At December 31, 2016, our total liabilities of $4,172,295 increased $938,725 (29.0%) from $3,233,570 at December 31, 2015. The increase primarily consists of the new derivative liability of $584,168.

 

At December 31, 2016, our stockholders’ deficit was $(1,815,049) as compared to stockholders’ deficit of ($606,747) at December 31, 2015. The principal reason for the decrease in stockholders’ equity was the operating loss incurred partially offset by common stock issued.

 

The following table sets forth the major sources and uses of cash for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

 

    2016     2015  
             
Net cash used in operating activities   $ (641,877 )   $ (224,521 )
Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities     (503,000 )     18,331  
Net cash provided by financing activities     1,139,097       237,862  
Net change in cash and cash equivalents   $ (5,780 )   $ 31,672  

 

At December 31, 2016, the Company had the following material commitments and contingencies.

 

Acquisitions – See Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Notes payable and long-term debt - $1,954,275 ($107,500 in related party debt), See Notes 8 and 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Accounts payable and accrued expenses - $775,624.

 

Advances from related party - $356,502

 

Cash requirements and capital expenditures – The Company will be required to make a cash payment of $1,500,000 to close the acquisition of True Wireless, LLC as set forth in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, the majority of the Company’s debt is past due and substantial additional cash will be required.

 

16

 

 

Known trends and uncertainties – The Company is planning to acquire other businesses that are similar to its operations. The uncertainty of the economy may increase the difficulty of raising funds to support the planned business expansion.

 

Evaluation of the amounts and certainty of cash flows – In 2016, sales declined $3,257,060 (49.8%) from the 2015 pro forma amount. The loss of a major customer during the second quarter of 2015 reduced cash flows from operations. The Company acquired DIQ in October 2015, which had a requirement for net cash payments of $100,000 in October 2015 plus $750,000 in notes due over the 150 days following the acquisition. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to replace the lost business, become proficient in operating its new business or be able to fund operations in the future.

 

Going Concern – Our financial statements have been presented on the basis that we continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, we incurred a net operating loss in the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. These factors create an uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company projects that it needs to raise $1-1.5 million of new capital investment in the short term, restructure literally all of its current debt and complete its acquisition of TW in order to reach a level of minimal viability. If these goals can be achieved in the next 90 days, management believes that the Company could achieve positive cash flow by the end of the 2nd quarter of 2018 (June 30, 2018) from ongoing operations by the combination of increased cash flow from its current subsidiaries, as well as restructuring our current debt burden. The Company is constantly seeking new investment from a variety of sources, debt, equity and hybrid. Additionally, the Company believes that it is moving toward the closing of the acquisition of TW. There are no guarantees that any of this will be achieved and the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the success of these plans.

 

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

 

Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. During the year ended December 31, 2016, we were required to make material estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and related disclosures of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses as a result of the acquisitions completed during the year. The estimates will require us to rely upon assumptions that were highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made, and changes in them are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Changes in estimates used in these and other items could have a material impact on our financial statements in the future. Our estimates will be based on our experience and our interpretation of economic, political, regulatory, and other factors that affect our business prospects. Actual results may differ significantly from our estimates.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

 

To the Board of directors of and Stockholders of

Ksix Media Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Ksix Media Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries (“the Company”) as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

 

We conducted our audits 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. The company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Ksix Media Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has a stockholders’ deficit of $1,815,049 and a working capital deficiency of $3,301,057 as of December 31, 2016 and incurred losses for the past two years. The Company has not established sources of revenues sufficient to fund the development of its business, or to pay projected operating expenses and commitments for the next year. These factors, among others, 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 3. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1 BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND BUSINESS

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Ksix Media Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), incorporated in Nevada on August 18, 2006, and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Ksix Media, Inc. (“Media”), incorporated in Nevada on November 5, 2014, Ksix, LLC (“KSIX”), a Nevada limited liability company that was formed on September 14, 2011, Blvd. Media Group, LLC (“BLVD”), a Nevada limited liability company that was formed on January 29, 2009, DigitizeIQ, LLC (“DIQ”) an Illinois limited liability company that was formed on July 23, 2014 and North American Exploration, Inc. (“NAE”), a Nevada corporation that was incorporated on August 18, 2006 (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Business description

 

The Company is doing business through two of its wholly owned subsidiaries. KSIX is an Internet marketing company. KSIX is an advertising network designed to create revenue streams for its affiliates and to provide advertisers with increased measurable audience. KSIX provides performance based marketing solutions to drive traffic and conversions within a Cost-Per-Lead (“CPL”) business model. KSIX has an online advertising network that works directly with advertisers and other networks to promote advertiser campaigns and manages offer tracking, reporting and distribution.

 

DIQ is a full service digital advertising agency specializing in survey generation and landing page optimization specifically designed for mass tort action lawsuits.

 

Other subsidiaries are inactive as of the date of this consolidated financial statement.

 

Effective December 7, 2016, the Company executed a Master Exchange Agreement for the exchange of Common Stock, Management and Control (the “Exchange Agreement”) with True Wireless, LLC (“TW”) and Kevin Brian Cox (“Cox”), the sole owner of TW’s issued and outstanding membership interests. TW’s primary business operation is a full-service telecommunications company specializing in the Lifeline program which provides subsidized mobile phone service for low income individuals. The acquisition has not closed as of the date of these financial statements (See Note 13 for details).

 

On October 12, 2015, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock (“Agreement”) with DIQ and its sole owner. DIQ is a full service digital advertising agency which became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (see Note 4).

 

On or about April 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with all of the shareholders of Media, whose primary business is the operation of a diverse advertising network through its wholly-owned subsidiaries KSIX and BLVD. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding shares (22,600,000 shares) of the common stock of Media from Media’s shareholders in exchange for 28,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock. The acquisition was accounted for as a reverse merger, whereby Media is the accounting acquirer and the Company is the legal surviving reporting company. The historical financial statements represent those of Media since its inception on November 5, 2014.

 

In July 2015, the Company completed the change of its name from North American Energy Resources, Inc. to Ksix Media Holdings, Inc.

2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Use of estimates in the presentation of financial statements

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 net revenue and expenses during each reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Accounts receivable and allowance for doubtful accounts

 

Accounts receivable are generally due thirty days from the invoice date. The Company has a policy of reserving for uncollectible accounts based on their best estimate of the amount of profitable credit losses in its existing accounts receivable. The Company extends credit to its customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. The Company generally does not require collateral or other security to support accounts receivable. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential bad debts if required.

 

The Company determines whether an allowance for doubtful accounts is required by evaluation of specific accounts where information indicates the customer may have an inability to meet financial obligations. In these cases, the Company uses assumptions and judgment, based on the best available facts and circumstances, to record a specific allowance for those customers against amounts due to reduce the receivable to the amount expected to be collected. These specific allowances are re-evaluated and adjusted as additional information is received. The amounts calculated are analyzed to determine the total amount of the allowance. The Company may also record a general allowance as necessary.

 

Direct write-offs are taken in the period when the Company has exhausted their efforts to collect overdue and unpaid receivables or otherwise evaluate other circumstances that indicate that the Company should abandon such efforts. For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company reported $36,954 and $97,406 of bad debt expense.

 

Credit risk

 

In 2016 and 2015, the Company had cash deposits in certain banks that at times may have exceeded the maximum insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company monitors the financial condition of the banks and has experienced no losses on these accounts.

 

Earnings (loss) per common share

 

The Company is required to report both basic earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding, and diluted earnings per share, which is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus all potential dilutive shares outstanding. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Accordingly, basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same for each of the periods presented.

 

Contingencies

 

Certain conditions may exist as of the date financial statements are issued, which may result in a loss to the Company, but which will only be resolved when one or more future events occur or fail to occur. Company management and its legal counsel assess such contingencies related to legal proceeding that are pending against the Company or unasserted claims that may result in such proceedings, the Company’s legal counsel evaluates the perceived merits of any legal proceedings or unasserted claims as well as the perceived merits of the amount of relief sought or expected to be sought therein. If the assessment of a contingency indicates that it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability can be estimated, then the estimated liability would be accrued in the Company’s financial statements. If the assessment indicates that a potentially material loss contingency is not probable but is reasonably possible, or if probable but cannot be estimated, then the nature of the contingent liability, together with an estimate of the range of possible loss if determinable would be disclosed.

 

26

 

 

Share-based compensation

 

The Company accounts for share-based compensation in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 718, “Compensation-Stock Compensation.” Under the fair value recognition provisions of this pronouncement, share-based compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award, reduced as appropriate based on estimated forfeitures, and is recognized as expense over the applicable vesting period of the stock award using the accelerated method. The excess tax benefit associated with stock compensation deductions have not been recorded in additional paid-in capital. When evaluating whether an excess tax benefit has been realized, share based compensation deductions are not considered realized until NOLs are no longer sufficient to offset taxable income. Such excess tax benefits will be recorded when realized.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property and equipment and software development costs are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the life of the lease if it is shorter than the estimated useful life. Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When property and equipment are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations. Computer and office equipment is generally three to five years and office furniture is generally seven years.

 

Business combinations

 

We allocate the fair value of purchase consideration to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the fair value of purchase consideration over the fair values of these identifiable assets and liabilities is recorded as goodwill.

 

Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets. Significant estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include, but are not limited to, future expected cash flows from acquired users, acquired technology, and trade names from a market participant perspective, useful lives and discount rates. Management’s estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.

 

Goodwill

Goodwill is recognized for the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets of businesses acquired. Goodwill is not being amortized, but is reviewed at least annually for impairment. In our evaluation of goodwill impairment, we perform a qualitative assessment to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If the qualitative assessment is not conclusive, we proceed to a two-step process to test goodwill for impairment including comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value (including attributable goodwill). Fair value for our reporting units is determined using an income or market approach incorporating market participant considerations and management’s assumptions on revenue growth rates, operating margins, discount rates and expected capital expenditures. Fair value determinations may include both internal and third-party valuations. Unless circumstances otherwise dictate, we perform our annual impairment testing in the fourth quarter.

 

We perform the allocation based on our knowledge of the market in which we operate, and our overall knowledge of the industry.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 605-10 (previously Securities and Exchange Commission Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition).

 

Revenue is recognized only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the service is performed and collectability of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured. The Company’s revenues are derived from online advertising sales and on a cost per lead (“CPL”) basis. Revenue from advertisers on a CPL basis is recognized in the period the leads are accepted by the client, following the execution of a service agreement and commencement of the services.

 

Deferred revenue

 

DIQ generally requires prepayment of the initial contract amount in advance of services being performed. As such, the advance payment is deferred as a current liability until DIQ delivers the surveys contracted. At that time revenue is recognized and the deferred revenue liability is reduced.

 

27

 

 

Fair value measurements

 

The Company adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, which defines fair value as used in numerous accounting pronouncements, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure of fair value measurements.

 

The estimated fair value of certain financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are carried at historical cost basis, which approximates their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of our short and long term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates taken together with other features such as concurrent issuances of warrants and/or embedded conversion options, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.

 

ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. ASC 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

  Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
  Level 2 — quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable.
  Level 3 — inputs that are unobservable (for example cash flow modeling inputs based on assumptions).

 

The derivative liability in connection with the conversion feature of the convertible debt, classified as a Level 3 liability, is the only financial liability measure at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

The change in the Level 3 financial instrument is as follows:

 

Issued during the year ended December 31, 2016   $ 1,226,020  
Converted     (373,616 )
Change in fair value recognized in operations     (268,236 )
Total   $ 584,168  

 

The estimated fair value of the derivative instruments was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions as of December 31, 2016:

 

Estimated dividends     None  
Expected volatility     261.35 %
Risk free interest rate     2.79 %
Expected term     0.01-36 months  

 

Convertible Instruments

 

The Company evaluates and accounts for conversion options embedded in convertible instruments in accordance with ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging Activities”. Applicable GAAP requires companies to bifurcate conversion options from their host instruments and account for them as freestanding derivative financial instruments according to certain criteria. The criteria include circumstances in which (a) the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded derivative instrument are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics and risks of the host contract, (b) the hybrid instrument that embodies both the embedded derivative instrument and the host contract is not re-measured at fair value under other GAAP with changes in fair value reported in earnings as they occur and (c) a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative instrument would be considered a derivative instrument.

 

28

 

 

Income taxes

 

We use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. 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 effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

 

Through December 23, 2014, KSIX and BLVD operated as limited liability companies and all income and losses were passed through to the owners. Through October 12, 2015, DIQ operated as a limited liability company and all income and losses were passed through to its owner. Subsequent to the acquisition dates, these limited liability companies were owned by Ksix Holdings and became subject to income tax.

 

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

 

Asset impairment and disposal of long-lived assets

 

Long-lived assets, such as property, equipment and intangible assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or asset group may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets or asset groups to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds its estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized equal to the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset or asset group exceeds the fair value of the asset or asset group. Assets to be disposed would be presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. ASU 2014-09 also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. Based on the FASB’s Exposure Draft Update issued on April 29, 2015, and approved in July 2015, Revenue from Contracts With Customers (Topic 606): Deferral of the Effective Date, ASU 2014-09 is now effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted only as of annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods within that reporting period. Entities will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2014-09 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business.” The amendments in this guidance are clarifying the definition of a business to assist entities when determining whether an integrated set of assets and activities meets the definition of a business. The update provides that when substantially all the fair value of the assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets, the set is not a business. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The adoption of this new guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The amendments in this guidance to eliminate the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure goodwill impairment charge (Step 2). As a result, an impairment charge will equal the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the amount of goodwill allocated to the reporting unit. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. The amendment should be applied on a prospective basis. The guidance is effective for goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed after January 1, 2017. The impact of this guidance for the Company will depend on the outcomes of future goodwill impairment tests.

 

In May 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2017-09 (ASU 2017-09), Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718) Scope of Modification Accounting. The amendments in ASU 2017-09 provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting in Topic 718. The adoption of ASU 2017-09 which will become effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and for interim periods within those annual periods, is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s financial statement presentation or disclosures.

 

We have evaluated all recent accounting pronouncements as issued by the FASB in the form of Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) through the date these financial statements were available to be issued and find no recent accounting pronouncements that would have a material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

 

3 GOING CONCERN

 

The Company has not established sources of revenues sufficient to fund the development of its business, or to pay projected operating expenses and commitments for the next year. The Company has a stockholders’ deficit of $1,815,049, has a working capital deficiency of $3,301,057 as of December 31, 2016 and incurred losses for the past two years. These factors, among others, create an uncertainty about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company projects that it should be cash flow positive after the end of the 2nd quarter ended June 30, 2018 from ongoing operations by the combination of increased cash flow from its current subsidiaries, as well as restructuring our current debt burden. The Company has executed an agreement with a FINRA licensed broker, as well as several institutional investors, to bring in equity investments to pay down existing debt obligations, cover short term shortfalls, and complete proposed acquisitions. Additionally, the Company is negotiating the closing of the acquisition of True Wireless, LLC, (“TW”) an Oklahoma Limited Liability Company. Upon the completion of the potential acquisition of TW as a wholly owned subsidiary, the Company believes it will become cash flow positive. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on the success of this plan.

 

29

 

 

The Company’s financial statements have been presented on the basis that it continues as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business, and do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

 

4 ACQUISITIONS

 

  (a) On April 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with all of the shareholders of Media. Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company acquired the 22,600,000 issued and outstanding shares of Media and issued 28,000,000 restricted shares of the Company’s common stock in exchange. The transaction resulted in the shareholders of Media owning approximately 90% of the resulting outstanding shares at that time and accordingly, the transaction is accounted for as a reverse merger with Media being the accounting survivor of the Company.
     
  (b)

On October 12, 2015, the Company entered into an Agreement for the Exchange of Common Stock (“Agreement”) with DIQ and its sole owner. DIQ, whose primary business operation is a full service digital advertising agency specializing in survey generation and landing page optimization specifically designed for mass tort action lawsuits, became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The consideration included 1,250,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, a cash payment of $250,000 ($150,000 was refunded due to renegotiation of the agreement) and three $250,000 notes (see Note 9). The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The purchase price was allocated to the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The Company completed an appraisal of DIQ amounts during the fourth quarter of 2017.  The resulting adjustments from the amounts determined by the Company to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed per the appraisal is as follows:

 

    Preliminary Amounts estimated by the Company     Adjustments     Appraised Value of Assets  
                   
Cash   $ 128,063       -     $ 128,063  
Accounts receivable     4,800       -       4,800  
Intangible assets (See Note 5)     1,630,973       (1,246,329 )     384,644  
Goodwill     -       866,782       866,782  
Total assets     1,763,836       (379,547     1,384,289  
Accounts payable and accrued expenses     (6,244 )     (4,978)       (11,222 )
Credit card liability     (153,097 )     -       (153,097 )
Deferred revenue     (288,720 )     -       (288,720 )
Net assets acquired   $ 1,315,775     $ (384,525 )   $ 931,250  
                         
Cash and notes issued   $ 840,775       (9,525)     $ 831,250  
Value of common stock issued     475,000       (375,000 )     100,000  
Total consideration   $ 1,315,775     $ (384,525 )   $ 931,250  

 

The adjustment in assets acquired and liabilities assumed resulted in a decrease in amortization expense of $494,584, of which $88,270 relates to 2015 operations and $406,315 relates to 2016 operations. In addition, selling, general and administrative expense declined by $4,978 and interest expense increased by $9,525 in 2016.

 

Proforma operating results for the period from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015 as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2015 are as follows:

 

   2015 
     
Revenue  $3,720,955 
      
Net income (loss)  $(250,664)

5 INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

Intangible assets are as follows:

 

Ksix and BLVD - The customer lists and related contracts of KSIX and BLVD were recorded at their fair value of $1,143,162 upon their acquisition on December 23, 2014. The Company determined a useful life of existing contracts and customer lists of three years and began amortizing the cost over that period.

 

DIQ - The customer lists and related contracts of DIQ were recorded at their initial estimated fair value of $1,630,973 upon their acquisition on October 12, 2015. After completing the appraisal (see Note 4), the Company made measurement period adjustments.

 

   Term   2016   2015 
             
KSIX and BLVD customer lists and related contracts   3 years   $-   $1,143,162 
DIQ initial customer lists and contracts   3 years   $-   $1,630,973 
DIQ customer relationships   5 years   $183,255   $-

        $217,195   $2,266,358 
Asset impairment       $372,706   $- 
Amortization expense       $430,128   $499,425 

 

Effective April 1, 2016, the Company temporarily suspended its BLVD business operations and is reviewing a potential discontinuation of the business. BLVD had only nominal operations in 2016. In addition, the Company evaluated the operations of KSIX at the end of 2016 and determined that, due to declining cash flows, the unamortized balance of the intangible assets associated with KSIX and BLVD should be impaired. An impairment of $372,706 was recorded.

 

Goodwill:

 

The Company completed the appraisal of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition of DIQ (see Note 4) and recognized goodwill in the amount of $866,782.

 

6 DEFERRED REVENUE

 

The Company bills in advance for services to be rendered for the majority of the business of DIQ. As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company had received $165,000 and $518,240 from its customers for which services had yet to be delivered, respectively.

 

7 CREDIT CARD LIABILITY

 

The Company has utilized a credit card issued in the name of DIQ operation to pay for certain of its trade obligations. At December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company’s credit card liability was $336,726 and $274,135, respectively. The bank charges no interest on the outstanding credit card balance, which is required to be repaid at the end of each billing cycle. In the event the payment is not timely made, the bank charges a fee consistent with its billing agreement. The credit card liability is guaranteed by Scott Kaplan, the vice president of business development for KSIX, LLC.

8 LONG-TERM DEBT – RELATED PARTY

 

As of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, long-term debt due to a related party consists of:

 

    December 31, 2016     December 31, 2015  
Note payable to director due in four equal annual installments of $26,875 on April 28 of each year     107,500       107,500  
Less debt discount     -       -  
      107,500       107,500  
Less current portion - related party     53,750       26,875  
Long-term debt - related party   $ 53,750     $ 80,625  

 

On April 28, 2015, the Company issued a promissory note to a director for principal amount of $107,500. The promissory note is due in four equal annual payment of $26,875 on April 28 each year. Pursuant to the terms of the note, the note begins to accrue interest at 6% per annum on the portion of the note that falls in default and the past due portion is convertible into the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to 70% of the current price of the common stock. 

 

The payment due April 28, 2016 has not been made. The Company has determined that the conversion feature for the past due portion of the note constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the note on the date of default. Accrued interest was $1,088 at December 31, 2016 and zero at December 31, 2015.

¹ The Convertible Promissory Note was modified on January 19, 2016 to release the pledge of the holder’s former membership units in Ksix and BLVD, to make the note convertible into the Company’s common stock and to require an extra payment of $100,000 due within 90 days. The terms of the Convertible Note provided in the event the Note was not paid prior to the Maturity Date (January 1, 2017) or that payments are not made to the holder by the due date ($10,000 on the 1st and 15th of each month), the holder shall have the right thereafter, exercisable in whole or in part, to convert the outstanding principal or payment then due into shares of the common stock of the Company. The Convertible Promissory Note provided the note conversion price was determined by taking the lowest closing price of the Company’s common stock in the previous ten trading days and then applying a 45% discount. On March 23, 2016, the parties entered into an Addendum to the Convertible Promissory Note to allow an immediate conversion of the $20,000 payments due in April 2016 at the 45% discount rate; to modify the conversion discount rate from 45% to 35% for any future conversions; and to require an additional payment of $30,000 within sixty days. The Company evaluated the embedded conversion feature for derivative treatment and the debt discount is fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

 

The original note and the convertible promissory note provide for semi-monthly payments of $10,000 due on the 1st and 15th of the month, with any unpaid balance due on January 1, 2017. If the Company paid the unpaid balance on December 31, 2016, they were allowed a discount of $200,000 from the remaining balance. In addition, the modification and addendum, provided for two additional payments during 2016. Within 90 days of January 19, 2016, the Company was required to make an additional payment of $100,000 and within 60 days of March 23, 2016, the Company was required to make an additional payment of $30,000. As of January 1, 2017 the total balance is past due.

 

² Notes due seller of DigitizeIQ, LLC includes a series of notes as follows:

 

  A non-interest bearing Promissory Note made payable to the Seller in the amount of $250,000, which was due on November 12, 2015; (Paid February 26, 2016).
  A second non-interest bearing Promissory Note made payable to the Seller in the amount of $250,000, which was due on January 12, 2016; (Balance at December 31, 2016 - $235,000)
  A third non-interest bearing Promissory Note made payable to the Seller in the amount of $250,000, which was due on March 12, 2016 (Unpaid).

 

34

 

 

The Company is renegotiating the terms of the notes. The notes bear interest at 5% per annum when in default (after the due date). The notes were non-interest bearing until due. Accordingly, a debt discount at 5% per annum was calculated for the notes and was amortized to interest expense until the due date of the notes.

 

³ Senior Secured Credit Facility Agreement - On February 24, 2016, the Company executed a Senior Secured Credit Facility Agreement (“Senior Credit Facility”) in the maximum amount of $5,000,000 together with a Convertible Promissory Note (“Convertible Note”) in the amount of $750,000 with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (“TCA”). The initial loan advance was $400,000 and requires monthly interest only payments for two months and then sixteen monthly payments of $28,306, including interest at 18% per annum. The obligation is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and its subsidiaries. The payment due August 29, 2016 was acquired by Salksanna LLC on September 13, 2016 (See ⁶ below). The payment due September 29, 2016 was acquired by Salksanna, LLC on October 7, 2016 and the payment due October 29, 2016 was acquired by Salksanna, LLC on December 21, 2016. (See ⁶ below).

 

The Senior Credit Facility includes a provision for advisory fees in the amount of $300,000 which was paid when the Company issued 1,782,000 shares of its common stock to TCA (the “Advisory Shares”) on or about March 24, 2016. If TCA is unable to collect the $300,000 from sales of the Advisory Shares within twelve months, the Company is obligated to issue additional shares to TCA until TCA is able to collect the full $300,000. Should TCA still be unable to collect the full $300,000, and after at least one year, TCA can require the Company to redeem any remaining shares for an amount equal to $300,000 less the sales proceeds that TCA has collected. In the event TCA sells the Advisory Shares for more than $300,000, the excess proceeds, together with unsold common shares will be returned to the Company. As long as there is no default under the terms of the Senior Credit Facility, TCA is limited to weekly sales of the Advisory Shares equal to no more than 20% of the average weekly volume of the Company’s common stock on its principal trading market. The stock was valued at the trading price on the date of the agreement and the resulting $300,000 was included as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the debt liability and was fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

 

The Convertible Note is convertible into the Common Stock of the Company upon the event of: (1) a default under any of the loan documents between the Company and TCA; or (2) mutual agreement between the Company and TCA, at which time TCA may convert all or a portion of the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest into shares of the Common Stock of the Company calculated by the conversion amount divided by 85% of the lowest of the daily weighted average price of the Company’s Common Stock during five business days immediately prior to the date of the request of conversion (the “Conversion”). Pursuant to the terms of the Convertible Note, TCA is limited to beneficial ownership of not more than 4.99% of the issued and outstanding Common Stock of the Company after taking into effect the Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Conversion.

 

The TCA note was restructured effective August 29, 2016, September 29, 2016 and October 29, 2016 to accommodate the payment of the amounts due on those dates by Salksanna, LLC and the issue by the Company of convertible notes payable to Salksanna for the amounts of those payments. (See 6 below.) The restructured note to TCA added $25,146 to each payment for the loan fee originally paid with common stock. When the fee is paid in full, the 1,782,000 shares will be returned to the Company. The payments due TCA on November 29, 2016 and December 29, 2016 are currently unpaid and this default resulted in the note becoming convertible into common stock of the Company.

 

The Company evaluated the resulting embedded conversion feature for derivative treatment and recorded an initial derivative liability and debt discount of $163,883. The debt discount was fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

 

The Company is also responsible for other transaction, due diligence and legal fees of $42,500 if it draws the remaining $350,000 initially committed.

 

The proceeds from the loan were used to pay a $250,000 note to the seller of DIQ and for working capital.

4 Calvary Fund I, LP Note – The Calvary note payable was due in installments of $25,000 plus accrued interest on November 25, 2016; $18,750 plus accrued interest on December 25, 2016; $14,063 plus accrued interest on January 25, 2017 and a final payment of the unpaid balance plus accrued interest on May 25, 2017. The agreement provides for limitations on additional indebtedness. If an event of default, as defined in the agreement, occurs and if not cured within ten days, the note becomes convertible into the Company’s common stock at a rate equal to 65% of the average VWAP over the previous 5 trading days. If the event of default is for non-payment of any installment due, the amount convertible is limited to the amount of the unpaid installment. Pinz Capital is controlled by a director of the Company. Calvary Fund I, LP acquired the note from Pinz Capital in December 2016.

 

The payments due November 25, 2016 and December 25, 2016 were not made. As a result, the Company was penalized $30,000, which was added to the note balance and due to other past due obligations, it was determined the total balance was in default and due, making the note convertible. Accordingly, a debt discount for the derivative liability was recorded on November 25, 2016 for $52,889. At December 31, 2016, the debt discount was fully amortized.

 

5 Convertible note payable to River North Equity, LLC (“RNE”)- The Company evaluated the embedded conversion for derivative treatment and recorded an initial derivative liability and debt discount of $23,339. The debt discount has been amortized to a balance of $8,774 at December 31, 2016.

 

The Company has entered into a number of agreements with RNE wherein RNE has agreed to invest up to $3,000,000 in the common stock of the Company. These agreements require an effective Registration Statement to be on file by the Company and would allow the Company to require RNE to purchase the Company’s common stock at 90% of the lowest trading price of the Company’s common stock during the previous five trading days. The Company has not yet filed a Registration Statement with the SEC.

 

6 The Company issued three convertible notes to Salksanna, LLC in exchange for payments made by Salksanna to TCA. The first note in the amount of $53,452 was converted into 1,953,399 shares of the Company’s common stock. The second note in the original amount of $53,452 was partially converted with $11,500 in principal and $44 in accrued interest converted into 383,525 shares of the Company’s common stock. The conversion of the first note and the partial conversion of the second note resulted in a loss on debt extinguishment of $107,104.

 

At December 31, 2016, the remaining notes with a principal balance of $95,405 have a debt discount of $87,379.

 

7 In November 2016, the Company entered into four working capital notes in the original amount of $245,000 which require daily payments aggregating $2,956. The notes will be repaid between March 31, 2017 and July 31, 2017.

 

Derivative liability

 

The Company has determined that the conversion feature embedded in the notes referred to above that contain a potential variable conversion amount constitutes a derivative which has been bifurcated from the note and recorded as a derivative liability, with a corresponding discount recorded to the associated debt. The excess of the derivative value over the face amount of the note, if any, is recorded immediately to interest expense at inception.

 

The estimated fair value of the derivative instruments was valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, using the following assumptions:

 

Estimated dividends None
Expected volatility 194.65% to 273.69%
Risk free interest rate 1.77% to 2.86%
Expected term .01 to 36 months

10 INCOME TAXES

 

The income tax provision (benefit) consists of the following:

 

    2016     2015  
             
Federal:                
Current   $ -     $ -  
Deferred     (1,267,100 )     (454,300 )
Change in valuation allowance     1,267,100       454,300  
    $ -     $ -  

 

The Company’s income is earned in Nevada, and is thus not subject to state income tax.

 

The expected tax benefit based on the statutory rate is reconciled with actual tax benefit as follows:

 

   2016   2015 
         
U.S. federal statutory rate   -34.0%   -34.0%
State income tax, net of federal benefit   0.0%   0.0%
Increase in valuation allowance   34.0%   34.0%
    0.0%   0.0%

 

Deferred tax assets consist of the effects of temporary differences attributable to the following:

 

    2016     2015  
Deferred tax assets                
Net operating losses   $ 1,621,400     $ 443,400  
Option compensation accrual     102,400       13,300  
Deferred tax assets     1,723,800       456,700  
Valuation allowance     (1,723,800 )     (456,700 )
Deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance   $ -     $ -  

 

The Company has approximately $4,768,000 of net operating losses (“NOL”) carried forward to offset taxable income in future years which expire commencing in fiscal 2034. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on the assessment, management has established a full valuation allowance against all of the deferred tax assets relating to NOLs for every period because it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ITEM 9A: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures

 

Under the PCAOB standards, a control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit the attention by those responsible for oversight of the company’s financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or 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.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act), as of December 31, 2016. Our management has determined that, as of December 31, 2016, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are not effective due to a lack of segregation of duties.

 

Management’s report on internal control over financial reporting

 

Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to the Company’s management and Board of Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with the United States’ generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP), including those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and disposition of the assets of the Company, (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP and that receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Company, and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

 

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.

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and our chief financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) as set forth in its Internal Control - Integrated Framework. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework, our management has concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2016 due to a lack of segregation of duties.

 

There were no significant changes in internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls during the quarter ended December 31, 2016.

AUDIT COMMITTEE. The Company intends to establish an audit committee, which will consist of independent directors. The audit committee’s duties would be to recommend to the Company’s board of directors the engagement of independent auditors to audit the Company’s financial statements and to review its accounting and auditing principles. The audit committee would review the scope, timing and fees for the annual audit and the results of audit examinations performed by the internal auditors and independent public accountants, including their recommendations to improve the system of accounting and internal controls. The audit committee would at all times be composed exclusively of directors who are, in the opinion of the Company’s board of directors, free from any relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment as a committee member and who possess an understanding of financial statements and generally accepted accounting principles.

 

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE. Our board of directors does not have a standing compensation committee responsible for determining executive and director compensation. Instead, the entire board of directors fulfills this function, and each member of the Board participates in the determination. Given the small size of the Company and its Board and the Company’s limited resources, locating, obtaining and retaining additional independent directors is extremely difficult. In the absence of independent directors, the Board does not believe that creating a separate compensation committee would result in any improvement in the compensation determination process. Accordingly, the board of directors has concluded that the Company and its stockholders would be best served by having the entire board of directors’ act in place of a compensation committee. When acting in this capacity, the Board does not have a charter.

 

In considering and determining executive and director compensation, our board of directors’ reviews compensation that is paid by other similar public companies to its officers and takes that into consideration in determining the compensation to be paid to the Company’s officers. The board of directors also determines and approves any non-cash compensation to any employee. The Company does not engage any compensation consultants to assist in determining or recommending the compensation to the Company’s officers or employees.

Compliance with Section 16(a) Of the Exchange Act

 

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, requires the Company’s executive officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of the Company’s common stock to file initial reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Additionally, SEC regulations require that the Company identify any individuals for whom one of the referenced reports was not filed on a timely basis during the most recent fiscal year or prior fiscal years. To the Company’s knowledge, based solely on a review of reports furnished to it, none of the Company’s officers, directors and ten percent holders have made the required filings.

Our Board of Directors has not adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

Compensation Policy

 

Our Company’s executive compensation plan is based on attracting and retaining qualified professionals which possess the skills and leadership necessary to enable our Company to achieve earnings and profitability growth to satisfy our stockholders. We must, therefore, create incentives for these executives to achieve both Company and individual performance objectives through the use of performance-based compensation programs. No one component is considered by itself, but all forms of the compensation package are considered in total. Wherever possible, objective measurements will be utilized to quantify performance, but many subjective factors still come into play when determining performance.

 

51

 

 

Compensation Components

 

As a growth stage Company with a plan of action of both vertical and horizontal industry acquisitions (and potential retention of management of acquired businesses), the main elements of compensation packages for executives shall consist of a base salary, stock options under the proposed plan discussed above under this section, and bonuses (cash and/or equity) based upon performance standards to be negotiated.

 

Base Salary

 

As the Company continues to grow, both through acquisition or through revenue growth from existing business interests, and financial conditions improve, these base salaries, bonuses, and incentive compensation will be reviewed for possible adjustments. Base salary adjustments will be based on both individual and Company performance and will include both objective and subjective criteria specific to each executive’s role and responsibility to the Company.

 

Compensation of Directors

 

At the time of this filing, directors receive no remuneration for their services as directors of the Company, nor does the Company reimburse directors for expenses incurred in their service to the Board of Directors of the Company. The Company plans to put in place an industry standard director compensation package during the fiscal year 2017.

The board of directors has responsibility for establishing and maintaining guidelines relating to any related party transactions between us and any of our officers or directors. We do not currently have any written guidelines for the board of directors which will set forth the requirements for review and approval of any related party transactions, but we plan to adopt such guidelines once we add additional independent board members.

 

Director Independence

 

Our common stock is currently quoted on the Pink Sheets (OTC Markets Inc. Pink Current Information Tier). Since the Pink Sheets does not have rules for director independence, we use the definition of independence established by the NYSE MKT (formerly the American Stock Exchange). Under applicable NYSE MKT rules, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of our Board, that person does not have a relationship which would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

 

We periodically review the independence of each director. Pursuant to this review, our directors and officers, on an annual basis, are required to complete and forward to the Corporate Secretary a detailed questionnaire to determine if there are any transactions or relationships between any of the directors or officers (including immediate family and affiliates) and us. If any transactions or relationships exist, we then consider whether such transactions or relationships are inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent. As this time, we have three independent directors, Anthony P. Nuzzo, Jr., David C. Ansani and Manual Flores.

Conflicts Relating to Officers and Directors

 

To date, we do not believe that there are any conflicts of interest involving our officers or directors, unless disclosed above. With respect to transactions involving real or apparent conflicts of interest, we have not adopted any formal policies or procedures. In the absence of any formal policies and procedures regarding conflicts, we intend to follow these guidelines: (i) the fact of the relationship or interest giving rise to the potential conflict be disclosed or known to the directors who authorize or approve the transaction prior to such authorization or approval, (ii) the transaction be approved by a majority of our disinterested outside directors, and (iii) the transaction be fair and reasonable to us at the time it is authorized or approved by our directors.

 

ITEM 14: PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTING FEES AND SERVICES

 

In the last two fiscal years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, we have retained Paritz & Company, P.A., as our principal accountants. We understand the need for our principal accountants to maintain objectivity and independence in their audit of our financial statements. To minimize relationships that could appear to impair the objectivity of our principal accountants, our board has restricted the non-audit services that our principal accountants may provide to us primarily to audit related services. We are only to obtain non-audit services from our principal accountants when the services offered by our principal accountants are more effective or economical than services available from other service providers, and, to the extent possible, only after competitive bidding. The board has adopted policies and procedures for pre-approving work performed by our principal accountants. After careful consideration, the board has determined that payment of the audit fees is in conformance with the independent status of our principal independent accountants.

 

Audit Fees – During 2016, $15,679 was billed for the completion of the 2015 audit and the quarterly reviews for 2016. The aggregate fees billed as of February 28, 2015 for professional services rendered by the Company’s accountant was approximately $63,847 for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements and the quarterly reviews for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015. The 2014 audit and the audits required by the acquisitions are included in the 2015 amount.

 

Audit-Related Fees – None.

 

Tax Fees – None.

 

All Other Fees – Other than the services described above, no other fees were billed for services rendered by the principal accountant.

 

Audit Committee Policies and Procedures – Not applicable.

 

If greater than 50 percent, disclose the percentage of hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year that were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees – Not applicable.
