NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2012

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, iPhone and Android.
 
Basis of presentation and going concern

Management acknowledges its responsibility for the preparation of the accompanying interim financial statements which reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary in its opinion for a fair statement of its financial position and the results of its operations for the interim period presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the summary of significant accounting policies and notes to financial statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K annual report for the year ended December 31, 2011.  The accompanying unaudited financial statements for Apps Genius Corp have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (the “U.S.”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8-03 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the fiscal year as a whole.

As reflected in the accompanying financial statements, the Company had a net loss and net cash used in operations of $783,420 and $435,518, respectively, for the sixmonths ended June 30, 2012 and an accumulated deficit of $1,705,084at June 30, 2012 and has minimal revenues. These matters raise substantial doubt about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  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 more revenues. In February 2012, the Company received approximately $830,000 from the sale of its common stock (See Note 5) which is being 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 six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 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 non-interest-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 non-interest-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.

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

Concentrations (continued)

Concentration of credit risk(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 June 30, 2012. There were no balances in excess of FDIC insured levels as of June 30, 2012.

Concentration of revenue and geographic area

The Company sells its products to its customers through revenue sharing arrangements. The following represents identifiable concentrations for any arrangement where revenue exceeded 10% of the total revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as follows:
 
 
Arrangement
 
Percentage of total revenues
For the six months ended June 30, 2012
 
Percentage of accounts receivable
balance at June 30, 2012

76.4%
 
72.7%
 
The Company has customers in countries other than USA. In the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, customers located in the USA represented substantially all of the Company’s total revenues.

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 June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, 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.
 
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.

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

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 six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, the Company did not capitalizeany 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 recordany impairment charges during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

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:

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 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 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.

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. 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 six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, advertising expense was $315 and $215, 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 the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, research and development costs were $110,210 and $43,960, 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:

Item 2.     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following plan of operation provides information which management believes is relevant to an assessment and understanding of our results of operations and financial condition. The discussion should be read along with our financial statements and notes thereto. This section includes a number of forward-looking statements that reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance. Forward-looking statements are often identified by words like believe, expect, estimate, anticipate, intend, project and similar expressions, or words which, by their nature, refer to future events. You should not place undue certainty on these forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our predictions.

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, 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, and Apple. 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.
 
On April 19, 2012, we acquired the domain name “GetFunded.com” in order to explore potential opportunities in crowdfunding.  “Crowdfunding” describes the collective cooperation, attention, and trust by people who network and pool their resources, usually via the Internet, to support efforts initiated by other people or organizations.  Crowdfunding can occur for a wide variety of purposes, both for-profit and not-for-profit, including mobile app development, disaster relief, citizen journalism, support of artists by fans, political campaigns, startup company funding, movie or software development, and scientific research.  Crowdfunding has experienced a sudden increase in popularity and could become a viable means for start-up companies to raise capital from investors because of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act or “JOBS” Act, which was signed into law by President Obama on April 5, 2012.  The JOBS Act eases certain securities regulations, particularly for smaller issuers of securities, and creates an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 for crowdfunding, subject to certain restrictions and qualifications.  The SEC has until December 31, 2012 to enact a regulatory system for crowdfunding, but this could potentially be extended until a later date.

 
17

 

Our website, www.GetFunded.com will position us to be part of crowdfunding when the SEC regulations become effective and entrepreneurs are able to solicit capital from investors through these channels. Crowdfunding has already received a large amount of publicity.

Our Beta version of www.GetFunded.com is open for pre-registration to all businesses. In an effort to attract the pre-registration of the best possible businesses seeking crowdfunding, we announced that we will contribute up to $5,000 in funding per project for the first 25 of those projects selected and feature the 25 projects on the GetFunded.com website upon its launch. Some of the criteria that the company will be evaluating are originality, sustainable competitive advantage, and potential market size. Our contributions to these businesses will range between $500 and $5,000.

Initially, the platform on GetFunded.com will allow users to donate financially to the development of a wide range of products and services. In our initial beta release, GetFunded.com will allow users to contribute to a project in exchange for services or products. Next, we intend to build and position the GetFunded.com platform to take advantage of the JOBS Act by allowing users to use crowdfunding to solicit investors and sell securities through our website when it becomes legal.

GetFunded.com intends to apply to become an approved portal site with the ability to allow users to invest and purchase securities in companies through crowdfunding in accordance with the requirements of the JOBS Act.  As soon as the SEC regulations are announced, we plan to move quickly so that we are able to become an early established platform for crowdfunding.

Limited Operating History

We have generated a 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 sixmonths ended June 30, 2012, 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.

 
18

 

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 six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

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 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 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.
    
Recent accounting pronouncements

Accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by FASB that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

Results of Operations

For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011

Revenues

For the sixmonths ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we recognized revenues of $4,974 and $8,535, respectively, from the sale of games and from advertising, a decrease of $3,561 or 41.7%. For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we recognized revenues of $1,248 and $2,428, respectively, from the sale of games and from advertising, a decrease of $1,180 or 48.6%.  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. In February 2012, we commenced development activities. Pursuant to the Snooki License discussed elsewhere herein, we will develop three additional games. We have also retained the right to release four additional applications provided we successfully release four applications during the initial license term. Additionally, on February 9, 2012, we entered into a binding term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) with Mike Sorrentino, MPS and 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.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, license fees and expenses amounted to $78,358 and $132,944, respectively. We did not incur these expenses in the three and six months ended June 30, 2011. On October 17, 2011, we entered into an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement with NEP Snooki Enterprises, LLC (“NEP”) 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.In consideration for the exclusive license granted by NEP during the initial term, we paid a non-refundable license fee of $55,000 (the “Cash Fee”). In addition, we issued NEP or assignees warrants exercisable for the purchase of 1,100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.31 per share on a for-cash or cashless exercise basis and 70,000 shares of our common stock were issued to Starz.
 
Additionally, on February 9, 2012, we entered into an exclusive, worldwide licensing agreement (the “MPS License Agreement”) with Mike Sorrentino and MPS Entertainment LLC (“MPS”) and Starz, which grants the Company the right to use Mike Sorrentino’s (known by the stage name “The Situation”) name and likeness in the development, manufacture, marketing, sale and distribution of social applications and social games. In consideration for the exclusive license granted by MPS during the Term, we issued MPS and Starz warrants exercisable for the purchase of an aggregate of 1,100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to $0.23 per share. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recorded licensing fees of $64,373and $115,370 from the amortization of the above cash and equity fees and $13,985 and $17,574 in marketing and promotional fees and insurance, respectively.
 
*
Research and development expenses consist primarily of salaries and fees paid to third parties for the development of software and applications. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, research and development expenses increased by $66,250 or 150.7% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, research and development expenses increased by $61,662 or 792.3% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.   In February 2011, we substantially decreased development activities and 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, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, we received net proceeds of approximately $825,000 and resumedresearch & 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 six months ended June 30, 2012, administrative compensation increased by $30,975 or 110.5% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, administrative compensation increased by $37,000 or 1,233.3% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. In the 2011 period, we reduced administrative compensation due to the lack of working capital.  In February 2012, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement, we received net proceeds of approximately $825,000 and resumed the payment of administrative compensation. We expect administrative salaries to increase in 2012 as we increase our operations.
 
*
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, professional fees increased by $307,949 or 459.3% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.  For the three months ended June 30, 2012, professional fees increased by $198,090 or 525.0% as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.  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 three and months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred stock-based professional fees of $142,819 and $234,137 related to business development and investor relations services as compared to $0 in the 2011 period.
 
*
For the six months ended June 30, 2012, other selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $87,294 or 368.8% as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred marketing expense of approximately $8,100 in connection with our exhibition and attendance at the 2012 game Developers Conference as compared to $0 for the 2011 period. Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2012, travel expenses increased by approximately $19,800 as compared to the 2011 period. During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we paid $60,000 for a domain name which was expensed and included in other selling, general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended June 30, 2012, other selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $11,001 or 3,190.3% and web development expensed increased by 60,310 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.  
 
Other Income

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we recognized interest income of $295 and $362, as compared to $4 and $37 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The increase in interest income was attributable to having a higher cash balance with which to earn interest on. Additionally, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, we incurred aggregate interest expense of $0 and $639 related to outstanding notes payable and related party notes, respectively. We did not incur interest expense in the 2011 period.

Net Loss

As a result of the factors described above, our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $783,420 and $154,133, or a net loss per common share of $0.02 and $0.01 (basic and diluted), respectively. Our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $505,352 and $54,156, or a net loss per common share of $0.02 and $0.00 (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.

 
21

 

Our net revenues are not sufficient to fund our operating expenses.  At June 30, 2012, we had a cash balance of $293,351. 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.
In 2011, we borrowed $111,150 ($101,150 from third parties and $10,000 from our chief executive officer) pursuant to note agreements. In January 2012, we borrowed an additional $7,500 from third parties. These funds were used for working capital purposes and to pay the fee for the License Agreement. These notes were unsecured, had interest at 6.0% per annum and were generally 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 $830,000 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 $830,000. 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 Agreement and 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 in 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.

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 $830,000 and resumed limited development activities.In February 2012, we began limited development activities and we estimate that we will incur cash costs and expenses of approximately $55,000 during a twelve month period on research and development activities (excluding non-cash stock-based fees)

Professional fee - Primarily includes professional fees associated with becoming a public company as summarized as follows:

We believe our current cash balance is sufficient to fund our business plan, and to continue operating for the next 12 months. If these operating 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.

Operating activities
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net cash flows used in operating activities amounted to $435,518 and $112,533, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, net cash used in operations of $435,518 was primarily attributable to our net losses of $783,420 offset by the add back of non-cash items such as depreciation expense of $673 and stock based compensation and fees of $345,007, and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2,222. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net cash used in operations of $112,533 and was primarily attributable to our net losses of $154,133 offset by the add back of non-cash items such as depreciation expense of $673, stock based compensation of $27,000, and contributed services of $3,000 and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $10,927. 
 
Financing activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we received net proceeds from sale of common stock of $838,150 and proceeds from notes payable of $7,500 offset by the payments of notes payable $118,650 and the payment of insurance premium finance payable of $5,859. In the six months ended June 30, 2011, we received proceeds from notes payable of $20,000 and repaid a subscription payable of $100.

Item 2. 
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
   
On April 10, 2012, we entered into a one-year consulting agreement for investor relations services.  In connection with the agreement, we issued 1,000,000 shares of our common stock.  We valued these common shares at the fair value of $0.108 per common share or $108,000 based on the quoted trading price of the common stock on the grant date which is the measurement date and will be amortized over the one year service period.
 
On June 11, 2012, we issued 75,000 shares of our common stock to our chief financial officer for services rendered. The Company valued these common shares at the fair value of $0.08 per common share based on the quoted trading price of the common stock on the grant date which is the measurement date. In connection with issuance of these common shares, the Company recorded stock-based compensation of $6,000.
 
These issuances were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 in reliance on an exemption provided by Section 4(2) of that Act.  Each person to whom the shares were issued was an accredited investor and acquired the shares for investment and not with a view to the sale or distribution and received information concerning us, our business and our financial condition, and the stock certificates bear an investment legend.  No brokerage fees were paid in connection with any of these stock issuances.
