BUSINESS.

Overview
 
Apps Genius Corp, develops markets, publishes and distributes social games and software applications that consumers can use on a variety of platforms. The platforms include social networks, wireless devices such as cellular phones and smart phones including the Apple iPhone™ and standalone websites.  To date, we have released several applications including ‘Bruisers’, a game application for Facebook, ‘My Mad Millions’, a game application for Facebook™, Drama Llama, an application for Facebook™, ‘Slap a Friend’, a game application for the Apple Iphone™, Bed Bug Alert, a utility application for Apple Iphone™ and Crazy Dream Application for Facebook™, Snookify Me! application for Iphone and Android, and Snooki’s Match Game Application for Facebook.   Apps Genius Corp’s goal is to develop and publish new titles on a recurring basis that are based on the same property and gaming platform.
 
The three key philosophies that are incorporated into each of our gaming titles are:
 
1. Make players feel like they’re playing with their real friends
2. Offer ways for players to express their personality, and
3. Provide a fantasy world environment that allows players to roll play as if they are living as a rock star or a multimillionaire.
 
Allowing players to go cross platform to invite their friends to their social gaming or mobile application experience creates the personalization necessary to create loyal and addicted users.  Further integration with wireless devices widens the reach and increases time played and revenue opportunities.
 
Revenue Model
 
We monetize our social games through virtual currencies through RadiumOne (formerly, gWallet), Facebook Credits and banner ads through Cubics.com, a division of AdKnowledge. Our mobile applications are monetized by either charging fees for downloading through the ITunes Apple Store or by offering free applications with banner advertising supplied by Cubics.
 
Virtual Currency
 
Some of our Social Games contain a virtual currency or points system. One such example is in our game “My Mad Millions” we issue “MMM Points” to our users that allow users to level up and gain special privileges.  Users collect points by moving through the levels, buying them or completing offers from third-party advertisers that convert into points or virtual currency. For example, your users can now purchase “My Mad Millions points” directly by using Facebook Credits payments system.  Users can also earn points by completing surveys, completing deals, or watching videos that are offered on an Offer Wall in the game provided through our relationship with Facebook Credits. When users make a purchase from one of the offers on our “Offer Wall”, complete a survey or purchase “My Mad Million” points using Facebook Credits, they get points in the game and can use them to level up or gain special privileges as they see fit.
 
Web Advertising
 
AppsGenius also uses its site to advertise for other companies.  We have entered into agreements with three companies where we agree to place banners or ads on our website. We receive a cash payment from the advertiser when a purchase is completed.  We currently have marketing relationships with Facebook Credits to provide a private label virtual currency system as well as third-party marketing offers.
  
We have also entered into an agreement with Cubics.com. Pursuant to this Agreement, we agree to download ads and banners from Cubics.com and we display them on our website.  Cubics.com then pays us at least $0.05 for every click that occurs on an ad or banner displayed on the Company’s website.
 
Social Network Space
 
Our games work as applications on social networking service site platforms. Users can install the games on their pages and the games then use the platform application programming interfaces to obtain social graph information (e.g. lists of friends) from their accounts. This information is used by players on the social network to invite friends and other on-line users to play the game or to notify players that a friend has logged on or reached a certain milestone in a particular game.
 
 
1

 
 
The games incorporate the social aspect of their host services by allowing users to group together in “crews”, “entourages”, or “families” (depending on the type of game). Many games give bonuses to players with larger lists of game-specific friends, and some features of their games are unavailable to users with small networks.
 
Business Model
 
Our business is supported in two manners: via partner businesses and Facebook Credit payments. Several of our games will require an “Energy” characteristic to play. Engaging in “Missions”, a core feature of many games, consume a certain amount of energy. After expending energy, it slowly replenishes to the character's maximum limit. This can take minutes or several hours (energy replenishes whether or not players are logged into the game). After energy is replenished, players can engage in additional missions. Waiting for energy to replenish is a significant limiting factor in the games. Their support mechanisms take advantage of this.
 
Our games will link to offers from a number of partners. Players can accept credit card offers, take surveys or buy services from our partners in order to obtain game credits, which allow them to replenish their character's energy or traded for other various virtual goods.
 
Players may directly convert Facebook Credits into points in our games.   From within the game, players can purchase the points for a fee: USD$5.00 for 20 game credits, for example.
 
Celebrity Entertainment Division
 
In August 2011, we launched our Celebrity Entertainment Division. Our aim with implementing the Celebrity Entertainment Division is to work with celebrities to create and distribute social games and software applications that consumers can use on a variety of platforms.

In that regard, on October 17, 2011, we entered into an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement which grants us the right to use Nicole Polizzi’s (known by the stage name “Snooki”) name and likeness in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of social applications and social games (the “Snooki License”). Pursuant to the Snooki License, we will develop a total of four applications within one year of the execution of the License Agreement (the “Initial Term”), with the release of the first application occurring in November 2011. We have also retained the right to release four additional applications after the Initial Term, provided we successfully release four applications during the Initial Term.
 
On February 9, 2012, we entered into a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with Mike Sorrentino, MPS Entertainment, LLC, and Starz Management & PR, LLS (“Starz”) regarding an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement, which would  grants us the right to use Mike Sorrentino (known by the stage name “The Situation”) name and likeness in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of social applications and social games to be released and offered on the Android, Apple's iOS, Facebook, and Google+ platforms (the “Sorrentino Agreement”).Pursuant to the Term Sheet, we will develop a total of four apps within eighteen (18) months of the execution of the Sorrentino Agreement, with the release of the first, second, and third App occurring within 3 months, 6 months and 9 months of the Effective Date, respectively. The fourth App shall be released no later than 15 months from the Effective Date. The term of the License (the “Term”) shall be 18 months from the Effective Date.

My Mad Millions (Released October 13, 2010):
My Mad Millions is a social game application currently available on Facebook and MySpace. Players have to spend $300,000,000 in a virtual environment living the life of the rich and famous. The objective of the game is to spend all $300,000,000 without having any assets at the end.  Players advance in the game while interacting with their friends by completing missions and spending virtual money for themselves and their friends by renting mansions, yachts, exotic cars, private jets, and thousands of other luxuries.  Players also compete to lose money by buying virtual stocks in the stock market, betting in virtual casinos, and betting on current sporting events in the game.  Players can interact with each other, buy gifts for their friends, invite others to join their entourage, and hire them as employees to spend more money and spend it faster.  
 
My Mad Millions creates a real-life and unique experience for players by using real images and prices of actual items that an individual with $300,000,000 may want to buy and could afford.

Plan of Operations

We were incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 17, 2009 as Apps Genius Corp.

We create innovative social games and mobile application that let you play together with real-world friends and family using the infrastructure built by social and wireless networks. Our cross-platform gaming and mobile applications allow users to play and interact with the same people such user would play cards, board games or go bowling within the real world, regardless of the network they are on.  Our Social Gaming and Mobile App technology allows users and players to reach across the different networks into a virtual application or gaming environment.  Additionally, we have developed unique player incentive platforms that allow users to share in the success of the game or application.  Currently we are developing our platform for Facebook, MySpace, iPhone and Android.
 
We monetize our social games through virtual currencies through Radium One (formerly gWallet), Facebook Credits, and banner ads through Cubics.com, a division of adKnowledge. Our mobile applications are monetized by either charging fees for downloading through the Apple iTunes Store or by offering free applications with banner advertising supplied by Cubics. To date, we have commenced limited operations and will require outside capital to implement our business model.

In August 2011, we launched our Celebrity Entertainment Division. Our aim with implementing the Celebrity Entertainment Division is to work with celebrities to create and distribute social games and software applications that consumers can use on a variety of platforms. In that regard, on October 17, 2011, we entered into an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement which grants us the right to use Nicole Polizzi’s (known by the stage name “Snooki”) name and likeness in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of social applications and social games (the “Snooki License”). Pursuant to the Snooki License, we will develop a total of four applications within one year of the execution of the License Agreement (the “Initial Term”), with the release of the first application occurring in November 2011. We have also retained the right to release four additional applications after the Initial Term, provided we successfully release four applications during the Initial Term.

On February 9, 2012, we entered into a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with Mike Sorrentino, MPS Entertainment, LLC, and Starz Management & PR, LLS (“Starz”) regarding an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement, which would  grants us the right to use Mike Sorrentino (known by the stage name “The Situation”) name and likeness in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of social applications and social games to be released and offered on the Android, Apple's iOS, Facebook, and Google+ platforms (the “Sorrentino  Agreement”).Pursuant to the Term Sheet, we will develop a total of four apps within eighteen (18) months of the execution of the Sorrentino Agreement, with the release of the first, second, and third App occurring within 3 months, 6 months and 9 months of the Effective Date, respectively. The fourth App shall be released no later than 15 months from the Effective Date. The term of the License (the “Term”) shall be 18 months from the Effective Date.

Limited Operating History

We have generated limited financial history and have not previously demonstrated that we will be able to expand our business. Our business is subject to risks inherent in growing an enterprise, including limited capital resources and possible rejection of our business model and/or sales methods.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

While our significant accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 to our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011, we believe that the following accounting policies are the most critical to aid you in fully understanding and evaluating this management discussion and analysis.

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We continually evaluate our estimates, including those related to bad debts, recovery of long-lived assets, income taxes, and the valuation of equity transactions.

We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Any future changes to these estimates and assumptions could cause a material change to our reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. We believe the following critical accounting policies affect our more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements.

Software development costs

Costs incurred in connection with the development of software products are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 985 “Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased or Marketed.”  Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are charged to research and development expense. Software development costs are capitalized after a product is determined to be technologically feasible and is in the process of being developed for market. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins upon initial product shipment. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over the estimated life of the related product (generally thirty-six months), using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates its software assets for impairment whenever events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of software assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such software assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the software asset.  We have not capitalized any software development costs.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, we review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. We recognize an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. We did not record any impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.  For all revenue sources discussed below, in accordance ASC 605-45 “Principal Agent Considerations”, we recognize revenue net of amounts retained by third party entities pursuant to revenue sharing agreements. Our specific revenue recognition policies are as follows:

We recognize revenue from the sale of our social games and mobile applications (“Apps”) when the App is sold and downloaded by the customer and collection is reasonably assured.

We recognize revenues from the placement of banner ads on social games and mobile applications upon placement of the banner and when collection is reasonably assured.

Some of the our social games contain a virtual currency or point systems that allow users to increase their game playing levels and gain special privileges.  Users collect points by moving through the levels, buying them or by completing offers from third-party advertisers that convert into points or virtual currency. When a user completes an offer for one of our third-party advertisers, the advertiser pays us a commission.  The commission is recognized as revenue upon completion of the offer and the receipt by us of an electronic confirmation from the advertiser and when collection is reasonably assured.  Virtual currency revenue in 2011 and 2010 was insignificant. For revenues generated through Facebook, Facebook enables payments to the Company through their users. Facebook users can make payments on the Facebook Platform by using credit cards or other payment methods available on its website. The primary process for these transactions is through the purchase of Facebook virtual currency. Facebook users then use this virtual currency to purchase virtual and digital goods in games and apps from developers on the Facebook Platform. When a user engages in a payment transaction utilizing the virtual currency to purchase the Company’s applications or games, Facebook will remit to the Company an amount that is based on the total amount of virtual currency redeemed less the processing fee that Facebook charges the Company for the service performed. At such time as the revenue is earned, the Company records as revenue the net amount of the transaction due to the Company from Facebook.

Stock-based compensation

We account for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees. We account for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50.

Results of Operations

For the Years Ended December 31, 2011 and 2010

Revenues

For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, we recognized revenues of $16,824 and $22,896, respectively, from the sale of games and from advertising, a decrease of $6,072 or 26.5%. The decrease in revenues was mainly attributable to a decrease in the sale of previously developed applications and advertising revenues and a lack in the development of new games and applications due to a lack of working capital and development activities. Pursuant to the Snooki License discussed elsewhere herein, we will develop a total of four applications within one year of the execution of the License Agreement (the “Initial Term”), with the release of the first application occurring in November 2011. We have also retained the right to release four additional applications after the Initial Term, provided we successfully release four applications during the Initial Term. For the year ended December 31, 2011, revenue from the sale of the first Snooki application amounted to approximately $6,400. During 2012, we plan on developing new applications.

Operating Expenses

For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, operating expenses amounted to $336,319 and $586,505 respectively, a decrease of $250,186 or 42.7%. Changes in operating expenses consisted of the following:

For the year ended December 31, 2011, license fees and expenses amount to $40,672. We did not incur these expenses in the 2010 period.  On October 17, 2011 (the “Effective Date”),we entered into an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement (the “License Agreement”) with NEP Snooki Enterprises, LLC (the “Licensor”) and Starz Management & PR (“Starz”), which grants us the right to use Nicole Polizzi’s (known by the stage name “Snooki”) name and likeness in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of social applications and social games (the “Apps”) to be released and offered on the Android, Apple's iOS, Facebook, and Google+ platforms.Pursuant to the License Agreement, we will develop a total of four Apps within one year of the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”), and we released the first App in November 2011. The term of the License (the “Term”) shall be one (1) year from the earlier of (i) the Release Date of fourth App described above or (ii) eight months after the Effective Date.  In the event that we successfully releases four Products within the Term, we, with the mutual agreement of the parties and the payment of an additional cash fee, shall be entitled to release up to four additional new Products and the Term shall be extended for an additional one-year period. In consideration for the exclusive license granted by Licensor during the Initial Term, we paid a non-refundable license fee of $55,000 (the “Cash Fee”). In addition, we issued Licensor or assignees warrants exercisable for the purchase of 1,100,000 shares of the Company’s common stockat an exercise price equal to $0.31 per share on a for-cash or cashless exercise basis (the “Warrants”) and 70,000 shares of our common stock were issued to Starz.For the year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded licensing fees of $31,241 from the amortization of the above cash and equity fees and $9,431 in marketing and promotional fees, and insurance.

*   
For the year ended December 31, 2011, research and development expenses, which consists primarily of salaries and fees paid to third parties for the development of software and applications decreased by $331,062 or 88.1% as compared to the same period in 2010.  Due to a lack of working capital, we reduced the number of research and development personnel. In May 2011, we temporarily ceased our research and development activities until we generated sufficient revenues from our current portfolio of products or we were able to raise additional working capital funds from debt or equity financing or loans. In February 2012, we resumedlimited research & development activities to develop new applications with working capital received from our recent capital raise and expect research and development expenses to increase in 2012.
 
  *   
For the year ended December 31, 2011, administrative compensation decreased by $16,083 or 23.6% as compared to the same period in 2010.  We reduced administrative staff due to the lack of working capital.  For the year ended December 31, 2011, administrative compensation includes $9,000 of services contributed to us by our chief executive officer.  We expect administrative salaries to increase in 2012 as we increase our operations.
 
*   
For the year ended December 31, 2011, professional fees increased by $108,299 or 191.8% as compared to the same period in 2010.  We expect professional fees to increase as we incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2011, we incurred stock-based professional fees of $71,694 related to business development and investor relations services as compared to $0 in the 2010 period.
 
*   
For the year ended December 31, 2011, other selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $52,012 or 60.5% as compared to the same period in 2010.  During the year ended December 31, 2011, we reduced general and administrative expenses due to a lack of working capital including a reduction in advertising expenses of approximately $10,000, computer and internet expenses of $15,000, rent of $4,500 and web development expenses of $6,300. We expect other selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in 2012 at such time as we resume the implementation of our business plan.

Other Income

For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, we recognized interest income of $38 and $811, respectively. The decrease in interest income was attributable to having a lower cash balance with which to earn interest on. Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2011, we incurred aggregate interest expense of $2,032 related to outstanding notes payable and related party notes, respectively.We did not incur interest expense in the 2010 period.

Net Loss

As a result of the factors described above, our net loss for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 was $321,489 and $562,798, or a net loss per common share of $0.01 and $0.02 (basic and diluted), respectively.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate funds to support its current and future operations, satisfy its obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. To date, we have funded our operations through the sale of our common stock.

Our primary uses of cash have been for salaries and fees paid to third parties for the development of our products. All funds received have been expended in the furtherance of growing the business and establishing brand portfolios. The following trends are reasonably likely to result in a material decrease in our liquidity over the near to long term:
 
 
o
An increase in working capital requirements to finance additional product and App development,
 
o
Addition of administrative and sales personnel as the business grows,
 
o
Increases in advertising, public relations and sales promotions for existing and new brands as the company expands within existing markets or enters new markets,
 
o
The cost of being a public company, and
 
o
Capital expenditures to add additional technology.
  
Our net revenues are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses.  At March 26, 2012, we had a cash balance of $610,000. Since inception we have funded our operations as follows:

·  
In 2010, we raised net proceeds of $652,000 from the sale of common stock to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, and for working capital purposes.
 
 
12

 
 
·  
In 2011, we borrowed $111,150 ($101,150 from third parties and $10,000 from our chief executive officer) pursuant to note agreements. These funds were used to working capital purposes and to pay the fee for the License Agreement. These notes were unsecured, had interest at 6.0% per annum and weregenerally due with one year or less of the original note date or within three business days of the closing of a private placement of certain equity securities offered by the Company. In February 2012, the Company raised net proceeds of approximately $825,000 in a private placement as discussed below and these notes and all accrued interest were repaid out of the net proceeds.
·  
On February 9, 2012, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”) relating to the sale and issuance by us to the Investors of an aggregate of 5,714,286 units, each unit consisting of (i) one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company, and (ii) a five-year warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.25 per share (each, a “Warrant,” and collectively, the “Warrants”).  Each unit was sold at a price of $0.175. Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, on February 14, 2012 (the closing date), we issued 5,714,286 shares of common stock and issued 5,714,286 Warrants for net proceeds to us from the sale of the units, after deducting the placement agent’s fees and offering expenses, of approximately $825,000.We conducted the Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 9, 2012.The Securities Purchase Agreement contains provisions that restrict the Company from issuing, except pursuant to certain exceptions, any Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents involving a Variable Rate Transaction (as that term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement) until five years from the closing.

We currently have no material commitments for capital expenditures. We will need to raise additional funds, particularly if we are unable to generate positive cash flow as a result of our operations.   We estimate that based on current plans and assumptions, that our available cash will be sufficient to satisfy our cash requirements under our present operating expectations, without further financing, for up to 12 months. Other than working capital and funds received pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, we presently have no other alternative source of working capital. We will use these funds to fund our operating expenses, pay our obligations, grow our company, and to develop products as required by our License Agreementand for the development of new Apps and games. We may not have sufficient working capital to fund the expansion of our operations and to provide working capital necessary for our ongoing operations and obligations after 12 months and we may need to raise significant additional capital. We do not anticipate we will be profitable in 2012. Therefore our future operations may be dependent on our ability to secure additional financing.  Financing transactions may include the issuance of equity or debt securities, obtaining credit facilities, or other financing mechanisms. However, the trading price of our common stock and a downturn in the U.S. equity and debt markets could make it more difficult to obtain financing through the issuance of equity or debt securities. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing. Furthermore, if we issue additional equity or debt securities, stockholders may experience additional dilution or the new equity securities may have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing holders of our common stock. The inability to obtain additional capital may restrict our ability to grow and may reduce our ability to continue to conduct business operations. If we are unable to obtain additional financing, we will be required to further curtail our marketing and development plans and possibly cease our operations.
 
We anticipate that depending on market conditions and our plan of operations, we may incur operating losses in the foreseeable future. Therefore, our auditors have raised substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern on their audit opinion for the year ended December 31, 2011.
 
Our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements, costs associated with newly applicable corporate governance requirements, including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly.

Our business plan within 12 months is outlined below:

Selling and marketing expenses- Sales and marketing is performed through the placement of ads on social media networks such as Facebook and travel expenses. Upon the resumption of the implementation of our business plan, we estimate that we will incur approximately $35,000 during a twelve month period on these advertisements.
 
 
13

 
 
Research and development activities- In May 2011, we temporarily ceased our research and development activities until we generated sufficient revenues from our current portfolio of products or we are able to raise additional working capital funds from debt or equity financing or loans.  In February 2012, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, we received net proceeds of approximately $825,000 and resumed limited development activities. Currently, we have reduced other research and development costs which presently only consist of hosting fees and server maintenance to approximately $1,000 per month. In March 2012, we began limited development activities and we estimate that we will incur approximately $250,000 during a twelve month period on research and development activities.
 
Professional fees, including fees associated with becoming a public company – Primarily includes professional fees associated with becoming a public company as summarized as follows:

$
125,000
 
Other
   
25,000
 
         
     Total
 
$

As of March 26, 2012, we have a cash balance of approximately $610,000 and our operating budget for the next 12 months requires working capital of approximately $555,000. We believe our current cash balance is sufficient to fund our business plan, and to continue operating for the next 12 months. If theseoperating funds are not sufficient, we will have to scale back our operating plans and it will be unlikely that we will be able to pursue our overall business plan without raising additional working capital.

Contractual Obligations

We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments. Changes in our business needs, cancellation provisions, changing interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of payments. We have presented below a summary of the most significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the tables, in order to assist in the review of this information within the context of our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm


To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of:
Apps Genius Corp

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Apps Genius Corp as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011.  These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.  Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our 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 audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Apps Genius Corp as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2011 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern.  As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company had a net loss and net cash used in operations of $321,489 and $215,700, respectively, in 2011, had an accumulated deficit of $921,664 at December 31, 2011 and has minimal revenues.  These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  Management’s plans as to these matters are also described in Note 1.  The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

Apps Genius Corp (the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 17, 2009.  The Company’s principal business is focused on creating innovative social games and mobile applications that let people play together with real-world friends and family using the currently available infrastructure built by both social and mobile networks. The Company’s cross-platform gaming and mobile applications allow users to play and interact with multiple people on multiple networks whether or not they have a preexisting relationship with them. The Company’s Social Gaming and Mobile App technology allows users and players to reach across the multiple networks into a virtual application or gaming environment.  Additionally, the Company has developed unique player incentive platforms that allow users to share in the success of the game or application.  Currently, the Company is developing its platform for Facebook, MySpace, iPhone and Android.

Basis of presentation and going concern

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had a net loss and net cash used in operations of $321,489 and $215,700, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2011 and an accumulated deficit of $921,664 at December 31, 2011 and has minimal revenues. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan, raise additional capital, and generate revenues. In February 2012, the Company received approximately $825,000 from the sale of its common stock (See Note 8) which will be used to implement its business plan.   Management believes that the actions presently being taken provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and the related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from these estimates. Significant estimates in the 2011 and 2010 period include the useful life of property and equipment, allowance for doubtful accounts receivable, assumptions used in assessing impairment of long-term assets, valuation of deferred tax assets, and the value of stock-based compensation and fees.
 
Cash and cash equivalents
 
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

Concentrations

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash.
 
On November 9, 2010, the FDIC issued a Final Rule implementing section 343 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act that provides for unlimited insurance coverage of noninterest-bearing transaction accounts. Beginning December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2012, all noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are fully insured, regardless of the balance of the account, at all FDIC-insured institutions. The unlimited insurance coverage is available to all depositors, including consumers, businesses, and governmental entities. This unlimited insurance coverage is separate from, and in addition to, the insurance coverage provided to a depositor’s other deposit accounts held at an FDIC-insured institution. A noninterest-bearing transaction account is a deposit account where interest is neither accrued nor paid; depositors are permitted to make an unlimited number of transfers and withdrawals; and the bank does not reserve the right to require advance notice of an intended withdrawal.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Concentration (continued)

The Company maintains its cash in bank and financial institution deposits that at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts through December 31, 2011. There were no balances in excess of FDIC insured levels as of December 31, 2011 and 2010.

Concentration of revenue and geographic area

The Company sells its products to its customers through three revenue sharing arrangements. The following represents identifiable concentrations for any arrangement where revenue exceeded 10% of the total revenues for 2011 and 2010 as follows:

The Company has customers in countries other than USA. In 2011 and 2010, customers located in the USA represented over 98% of the total revenue.

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable are presented net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes general and specific allowances when there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, customer’s historical payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends. Accounts are written off after exhaustive efforts at collection. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company does not, based on a review of its outstanding balances, have an allowance for doubtful accounts.

Fair value measurements and fair value of financial instruments

The Company adopted ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements. ASC Topic 820 clarifies the definition of fair value, prescribes methods for measuring fair value, and establishes a fair value hierarchy to classify the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

·  
Level 1-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities available at the measurement date.
·  
Level 2-Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other then quoted prices that are observable, and inputs derived from or corroborated by observable market data.
·  
Level 3-Inputs are unobservable inputs which reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions on what assumptions the market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best available information.

The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheets for cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and amounts due to related party approximate their fair market value based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The Company did not identify any assets or liabilities that are required to be presented on the balance sheets at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 820.

NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Prepaid expenses

Prepaid expenses (current and long-term portion) consist primarily of prepayments (in cash and equity instruments) for public relation services, consulting and business advisory services, licensing fees, and prepaid insurance which are being amortized over the terms of their respective agreements.

Property and equipment

Property and equipment are carried at cost and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The cost of repairs and maintenance is expensed as incurred; major replacements and improvements are capitalized.  When assets are retired or disposed of, the cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in income in the year of disposition. The Company examines the possibility of decreases in the value of fixed assets when events or changes in circumstances reflect the fact that their recorded value may not be recoverable.

Software development costs

Costs incurred in connection with the development of software products are accounted for in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 985 “Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased or Marketed.” Costs incurred prior to the establishment of technological feasibility are charged to research and development expense. Software development costs are capitalized after a product is determined to be technologically feasible and is in the process of being developed for market. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins upon initial product shipment. Capitalized software development costs are amortized over the estimated life of the related product (generally thirty-six months), using the straight-line method. The Company evaluates its software assets for impairment whenever events or change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable.  Recoverability of software assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset.  If such software assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the software asset.  During the 2011 and 2010 periods, the Company did not capitalize any software development costs.

Impairment of long-lived assets

In accordance with ASC Topic 360, the Company reviews, long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable, or at least annually. The Company recognizes an impairment loss when the sum of expected undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset. The amount of impairment is measured as the difference between the asset’s estimated fair value and its book value. The Company did not record any impairment charges during the periods ended December 31, 2011 or 2010.

Revenue recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, the purchase price is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.  For all revenue sources discussed below, in accordance ASC 605-45 “Principal Agent Considerations”, the Company recognizes revenue net of amounts retained by third party entities pursuant to revenue sharing agreements. The Company’s specific revenue recognition policies are as follows:

 
F-9

 
 
APPS GENIUS CORP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2011
 
NOTE 1 – ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Revenue recognition (continued)

The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of its social games and mobile applications (“Apps”) when the App is sold and downloaded by the customer and collection is reasonably assured.

The Company recognizes revenues from the placement of banner ads on its social games and mobile applications upon placement of the banner and when collection is reasonably assured.

Some of the Company’s social games contain a virtual currency or point systems that allow users to increase their game playing levels and gain special privileges.  Users collect points by moving through the levels, buying them or by completing offers from third-party advertisers that convert into points or virtual currency. When a user completes an offer for one of our third-party advertisers, the advertiser pays the Company a commission.  The commission is recognized as revenue upon completion of the offer and the receipt by the Company of an electronic confirmation from the advertiser and when collection is reasonably assured.   Virtual currency revenue in 2011 and 2010 was insignificant.  For revenues generated through Facebook, Facebook enables payments to the Company through their users. Facebook users can make payments on the Facebook Platform by using credit cards or other payment methods available on its website. The primary process for these transactions is through the purchase of Facebook virtual currency. Facebook users then use this virtual currency to purchase virtual and digital goods in games and apps from developers on the Facebook Platform. When a user engages in a payment transaction utilizing the virtual currency to purchase the Company’s applications or games, Facebook will remit to the Company an amount that is based on the total amount of virtual currency redeemed less the processing fee that Facebook charges the Company for the service performed. At such time as the revenue is earned, the Company records as revenue the net amount of the transaction due to the Company from Facebook.

Income taxes

The Company is governed by the Income Tax Law of the United States. The Company utilizes ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns.  Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the periods in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

Under ASC Topic 740, the evaluation of a tax position is a two-step process. The first step is to determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of any related appeals or litigation based on the technical merits of that position. The second step is to measure a tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not threshold to determine the amount of benefit to be recognized in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent period in which the threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more-likely-than-not criteria should be de-recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which the threshold is no longer met. ASC Topic 740 also provides guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosures, and transition.  

Stock-based compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity based compensation issued to employees. There were no employee options outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50.

Advertising

Advertising is expensed as incurred and is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, advertising expense was $215 and $10,350, respectively.

Research and development

Research and development costs which consist primarily of salaries and fees paid to third parties for the development of software and applications are expensed as incurred. For years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010, research and development costs were $44,860 and $375,922, respectively.

Net loss per share of common stock
 
Basic net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period.  Potentially dilutive common shares consist of common stock warrants (using the treasury stock method). These common stock equivalents may be dilutive in the future. All potentially dilutive common shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding as they would have an anti-dilutive impact on the Company’s net losses and consisted of the following:

Since the expiration date of the warrants has not been determined, the fair market value of warrants granted pursuant to the License Agreement is subject to adjustment by the Company if the estimates of the initial expiration date changes. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company recorded licensing fees of $20,539 and a deferred licensing cost of $127,345 which will be amortized over the initial estimated license term of 20 months.

NOTE 6 – INCOME TAXES
 
The Company has incurred aggregate cumulative net operating losses of approximately $866,427 for income tax purposes as of December 31, 2011. The net operating loss carries forward for United States income taxes, which may be available to reduce future years’ taxable income. These carry forwards will expire, if not utilized, starting in 2029 through 2031. Management believes that the realization of the benefits from these losses appears not more than likely due to the Company’s limited operating history and continuing losses for United States income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company has provided a 100% valuation allowance on the deferred tax asset to reduce the asset to zero. Management will review this valuation allowance periodically and make adjustments as warranted.

The Company’s income tax expense (benefit) differs from the “expected” tax expense for Federal income tax purposes computed by applying a Federal corporate tax rate of 34% to loss before income taxes as follows:

   
2011
   
2010
 
U.S. “expected” income tax
  $ (109,306 )   $ (191,351 )

     Total provision for income taxes

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of deferred tax assets and liabilities at December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows:

   
2011
   
2010
 
Deferred tax assets:

  Less valuation allowance

Net deferred tax assets
  $ -     $ -  

The valuation allowance at December 31, 2011 was $344,318.  The increase during 2011 was $115,195.

The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of December 31, 2011, tax years 2009, and 2010 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the Internal Revenue Service for any of the open tax years.

ITEM 9A.
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
 
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
 
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 December 31, 2011. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officers have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules.

Changes in internal controls
 
There were no changes (including corrective actions with regard to significant deficiencies or material weaknesses) in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
 
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 over the registrant. 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 United State’s 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 dispositions 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.  Management conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control— Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, Management concluded the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011.
 
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide only management’s report in this Annual Report.
