NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

 

1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 included herein have been prepared by management and are unaudited. Such condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position and results of operations as of and for the periods indicated and in order to make the financial statements not misleading. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for any subsequent period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2012.

 

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the condensed consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 in the Form 10-K filed with the SEC.

 

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Variable Interest Entity (VIE)

 

Pursuant to a Bill of Sale, Assignment and Assumption Agreement, executed on May 2, 2011, WebXU, Inc. (the “Company”) purchased the assets and technology platform (that now serves as the hub for future acquisitions) from the Kirkcaldy Group, LLC in exchange for 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The agreement provided that if the Company did not go public or engage in a sale of its business resulting in liquidity event each valued at least $25 million within two years of the agreement, Kirkcaldy Group, LLC would have the right to repurchase the assets and technology platform by returning the 50,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to WebXU. The Company believed the Kirkcaldy Group, LLC was a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”) for the 2011 period, requiring consolidation, primarily since the majority of its transactions had been with Bonus Interactive, Inc., a subsidiary of WebXU. Additionally, the total equity at risk was not sufficient to finance the entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. (See Note 7 below).

 

During the first quarter of 2012, the Company recognized one-time, non-cash, pre-tax loss of approximately $535,000 as a result. The loss is included in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as a loss on previously held variable interest entity. The assets of a consolidated VIE are used to settle the liabilities of that entity. The liabilities of a consolidated VIE do not have recourse to the general credit of the Company.

 

Deconsolidation of previously held VIE

 

Upon determining that an entity is no longer considered a VIE. The Company deconsolidates the entity in accordance with FASB Topic 810-10-40. This process applies the assets to settle the liabilities, resulting in a gain or loss on the previously held VIE, listed separately on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company classifies as cash and cash equivalents amounts on deposit in the banks and cash temporarily in various instruments with original maturities of three months or less at the time of purchase. Certain funds that are deemed to be restrictive and not available for use without certain restrictions are identified separately on the Statements of Condition. The Company determines if the restricted cash is a current asset or non-current asset and reports it in the appropriate line item, on the Company’s Statements of Condition.

 

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets in accordance with the provisions of FASB Topic 360, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. This statement requires that long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Fair values are determined based on quoted market value, discounted cash flows, or internal and external appraisals, as applicable. During the quarter ended March 31, 2012, the Company did not recognize an impairment charge.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets consist primarily of identifiable intangible assets purchased in connection with the Company’s acquisitions. Intangible assets are carried at cost less accumulated amortization. Intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over the expected useful lives of the assets, between three and nine years, with the exception of customer relationships, which are amortized using a double-declining balance method, to more accurately reflect the pattern in which the economic benefit is consumed. Other intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 360-10-35 (previously SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets), whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Measurement of any impairment loss for long-lived assets and identifiable intangible assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the amount of the carrying value that exceeds the fair value of the asset. No impairment loss was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011.

 

Stock Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued to non-employees for services and goods under ASC Topic 505.50; EITF 96-18 (Accounting for Equity Instruments Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods and Services); and EITF 00-18 (Accounting Recognition for Certain Transactions Involving Equity Instruments Granted to other than Employees.) Generally, the equity instruments issued for services or goods are for common shares or common stock purchase warrants. These shares or warrants are fully vested, non-forfeitable and fully paid or exercisable at the date of grant and require no future performance commitment by the recipient. The Company expenses the fair market value of these securities over the period in which the Company receives the related services.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

Company's management has reviewed all of the FASB's Accounting Standard Updates through March 31, 2012 and has concluded that none will have a material impact on the Company's financial statements. Management does not believe that any other recently issued but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have an effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

  

3. Restrictive Cash

 

Restrictive cash relates to the lock box arrangement with Breakwater Structured Growth Opportunities Fund, L.P. (“Breakwater”) Breakwater holds one payment on the short term note payable in escrow prior to releasing the cash to the Company. As of March 31, 2012, there was $452,534 held by Breakwater of which $200,000 was for the payment due on April 2, 2012.

Fair Value of Equity Awards - The above tables reflect the assumptions utilized to value the stock-based compensation as of March 31, 2012 under FASB ASC 718 and using the Black-Scholes-Merton valuation model. The risk-free interest rate is based upon U.S. Treasury Rates for instruments with similar terms. The full term of the warrants granted was used for the expected life since the warrants were granted to organizations where turnover is expected to be low and since they are expected to hold the warrants for the full term to obtain the maximum benefit. The volatility assumptions were derived from management’s assessment of volatilities used by other companies, and are adjusted to reflect anticipated behavior specific to the Company.

 

Risk-free interest rate - 0.84%
Expected life (years) - 5 Years
Expected dividend yield - 0.0%
Volatility - 300%

Options

 

2011 Stock Option Plan-

 

On May 16, 2011, we cancelled the 2010 Equity Incentive Plan and adopted the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”), pursuant to which we are authorized to grant options, restricted stock and stock appreciation rights to purchase up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock to our employees, officers, directors, consultants, and advisors. The Equity Plan provides for awards of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, and rights to acquire restricted stock. Incentive stock options granted under the Equity Plan are intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). Non-statutory stock options granted under the Equity Plan are not intended to qualify as incentive stock options under the Code.

 

6. Acquisition of Lot6 Media, Inc.

 

On November 15, 2011, the Company completed its acquisition of Lot6 Media, Inc. (“Lot6 Media”), a Delaware corporation. Lot6 Media provides a variety of solutions for online businesses, media marketing agencies, and marketers. The acquisition cost included a $5 million note payable in six months and 1 million shares of the Company’s restricted common stock. The Company also acquired the working capital of Lot6 Media and recorded a note payable for $1,861,532. The Lot6 Media shareholder has the option of taking payment for up to 50% of the amount owed as a promissory note in restricted common stock as payment on the note in lieu of cash payments. Additionally, there are earn-out provisions based on EBITDA for each of the two successive years after the acquisition.

8. Net Loss per Share of Common Stock

 

The Company has adopted FASB Topic 260, "Earnings per Share," which requires presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS computation. In the accompanying financial statements, basic loss per share of common stock is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Basic net loss per common share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. However, shares associated with convertible debt, stock options, and stock warrants are not included because the inclusion would be anti-dilutive (i.e. reduce the net loss per common share). There were no anti-dilutive instruments.

9. Subsequent Events

 

On April 28, 2012, the board of directors of the Company approved and ratified a Letter Agreement dated April 27, 2012 by and between the Company and John Ellis, the Company's President and Chief Operating Officer (the "Letter Agreement"). Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company amended Mr. Ellis' Employment Agreement dated September 1, 2011, and accepted by Mr. Ellis on September 9, 2011 and authorized the issuance of an option to purchase an additional one million (1,000,000) shares of the Company's common stock at an exercise price of $1.60 per share which is contingent on the closing of a future investment (whether debt or equity or a combination) of at least One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) in the Company. Options for Five Hundred Thousand (500,000) shares vest immediately upon the closing of a One Million Dollar future investment in the Company, options for Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (250,000) shares of stock shall vest 12 months after such closing, and options for an additional Two Hundred Fifty Thousand (250,000) shares shall vest 24 months after such closing, so long as Mr. Ellis remains an employee or consultant to the Company. In the event of a change of control of the Company (or its successor), upon the closing of such change of control, then 100% of any unvested options shall be accelerated and shall immediately become vested. All options will have a cashless exercise feature.

 

On May 7, 2012 the Company completed the collection of funds to retire the $1,200,000 Breakwater note.

Overview

 

We are a media company that acquires and integrates consumer-oriented businesses in the customer acquisition and e-commerce categories, focusing on operational improvement and augmenting of management resources. We also provide marketing solutions for online businesses, media agencies and marketers through our wholly owned subsidiary, Lot6 Media. Our revenue is generated from advertisers that desire sales leads from engaged consumers. Our wholly owned subsidiary, Bonus Interactive Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bonus Interactive”) is engaged in the business of customer acquisition and retention programs in both the online and offline arenas.

 

The following is Management’s Discussion and Analysis of the results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. For the three months ended March 31, 2011, the comparison is for WebXU only, since the commenced operations of Bonus Interactive and the acquisition of Lot6 had not yet taken place.

 

Results of Operations

 

Sales

 

Sales for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were $4,725,818 and $0, respectively. Bonus Interactive commenced operations in April 2011, and Lot6 was acquired in November 2011, therefore, no sales were recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

 

Cost of Goods Sold

 

Cost of goods sold for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was $3,413,184. No costs of goods sold was recorded for the three month period ending March 31, 2011, as there was no revenue for that period.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Operating expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 were $1,710,692 and $179,648, respectively. The majority of the difference between the three month periods, in addition to the added operating expenses of our subsidiaries, Bonus Interactive and Lot6 Media, was due to stock based compensation of $776,339 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $9,838 for the same period in 2011, due to increased stock issued. Additionally, legal fees were incurred primarily related to financings.

 

Interest Expense

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, interest expense was approximately $4.2 million compared to $1,495 for the same period in 2011. Interest expense of approximately $4.2 million relates to 2.5 million shares of common stock that were issued, in lieu of paying interest, at $1.50 and $1.80 per share in the first quarter of 2012 related to notes arising from the Lot6 Media acquisition. The remaining interest expense for the first quarter of 2012 relates to the notes and loan payables that did not exist during the same period of 2011.

 

Amortization of Debt Discount

 

For the three months ended March 31, 2012, amortization of debt discount was $39,563 for amortization of the fair value of warrants associated with a loan payable for $200,000 and $301,532 was for amortization of the fair value of the warrants for a note payable for $1.2 million to Breakwater. There were no debt discounts for the first quarter of 2011.

Net Loss

 

Our net loss for the three month period ending March 31, 2012 and March 31, 2011 was $5,507,545 and $181,143, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Our total cash resources as of March 31, 2012 was $597,572, of which $452,534 was considered restricted cash as it is committed to repay our Breakwater note payable. As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we incurred a loss from operations of $398,058 for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 and a net loss from operations of $180,574 for the three month period ended March 31, 2011. Our current liabilities exceeded current assets by $6,506,858 at March 31, 2012.

 

Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through debt and equity financings. The acquisition of Lot6 provides a means to fund our future cash flows as well as the pursuit of additional financings.

 

Operating Activities

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 was $29,078 although loss from operations was $398,058. This was primarily due to the use of stock issuances instead of cash/liquid assets to pay for settlement expenses and/or interest expense.

 

Investing Activities

 

The Company paid in full the $120,000 note payable related to the acquisition of CST for $120,000 during the three month period ended March 31, 2012.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash flows from financing activities consisted of increases in our short term loans payable of $170,000 and common stock sold for cash of $62,500 plus the net capital addition from Breakwater of $1.1 million. Cash used in financing activities included the pay down of $1,461,000 on the working capital loan payable in conjunction with the acquisition of Lot6.

 

Other

 

We do not believe that inflation has had a material impact on our business or operations.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have not entered into any other financial guarantees or commitments to guarantee the payment obligations of any third parties. We have no retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to any unconsolidated entity that would be considered an off-balance sheet arrangement, and we do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the applicable period to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act (i) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

There were changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. It was determined that additional assistance was necessary in the Company's financial reporting. Therefore, the Company has engaged a Financial Reporting Manager during the first quarter of 2012 and began a training program for more complete understanding of the Company's operations and how it relates to the Financial Reporting process.
