Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Organization and Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of EFactor Group Corp. formerly known as Standard Drilling, Inc., (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto of the Company contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, which was filed on March 11, 2014.

 

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 as reported in the Form 10-K have been omitted.

 

Description of Business

·

Principles of consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014, The E-Factor Corporation, EQmentor and MCC.  Significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Note 2 – Going Concern

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Because the business is new, has limited history and relatively few sales, no certainty of continuation can be stated. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

The Company has suffered losses from operations and has a working capital deficit, which raises substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going concern. Management is taking steps to raise additional funds to address its operating and financial cash requirements to continue operations in the next twelve months. Management has devoted a significant amount of time in the raising of capital from additional debt and equity financing. However, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional funds through debt and equity financing and generating revenue. There are no assurances the Company will receive the necessary funding or generate revenue necessary to fund operations. The financial statements contain no adjustments for the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

Note 3 – Notes Payable and Line of Credit

 

Notes payable

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 the Company issued twenty three convertible unsecured short term notes payable to individuals totaling $1,184,191. These notes bear annual interest between 0% - 12%, mature within a period ranging from one (1) month to six (6) months from issuance and are convertible into common shares at prices ranging from $0.50 to $2.00 per common share. The Company issued a total of 307,748 shares with the notes and the relative fair value of the shares amounting to $311,245 was recognized as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the notes.  The Company evaluated the embedded conversion features within the convertible debt under ASC 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” and determined that the embedded conversion feature should be classified as equity, except for those relating to four convertible notes, as further discussed below. Additionally, the instruments were evaluated under ASC 470-20 “Debt with Conversion and Other Options” for consideration of any beneficial conversion features. The Company determined the convertible notes included a beneficial conversion feature amounting to $558,615 which was also recognized as a debt discount and amortized over the term of the notes.   

 

Two notes issued during the three months ended March 31, 2014 included reset provisions on the conversion price if certain events occur.  Specifically, the terms of the notes provided that the conversion price of $1.00 will reset to $0.50 if the Company’s securities offering  falls below $1.00 per share or if the securities offering is not completed by February 28, 2014. This resulted in a derivative liability being recognized at the issuance date amounting to $525,632 with a corresponding charge to debt discount for the full amount of the notes amounting to $267,417 and the balance of $258,215 to derivative loss On February 28, 2014, the reset provisions in these notes were triggered and the conversion price reset to $0.50 per share.  Consequently, the derivative liability was marked to market on such date and an additional derivative loss of $301,677 was recognized.  The fair value of the derivative liability at the re-measurement date amounting to $827,309 was credited to additional paid in capital.   

Two notes issued during the three months ended June 30, 2014 included reset provisions on the conversion price if certain events occur.  Specifically, the terms of the notes provided that the conversion price of $1.00 will reset to $0.50 if the Company’s securities offering  falls below $1.00 per share or if the securities offering is not completed by May 31, 2014. This resulted in a derivative liability being recognized at the issuance date amounting to $6,808 with a corresponding charge to debt discount. On May 30, 2014, 2014, the reset provisions in these notes were triggered and the conversion price reset to $0.50 per share. Consequently, the derivative liability was marked to market and a derivative loss of $16,251 was recognized. The fair value of the derivative liability at the re-measurement date amounting to $23,059 was credited to additional paid-in capital.

 

The derivative liabilities were valued using the Black-Scholes model using the following assumptions: 

		At issuance date				At termination date
Market value of stock on measurement date		$	0.08 - 2.25			$	0.08 - 1.90
Risk-free interest rate			0.01% - 0.04 %				0.05 %
Dividend yield			0 %				0 %
Volatility factor			269% - 655 %				319 %
Term			0.07 - 0.16 years				0.25 years

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company issued 1,558,123 shares to convert $690,991 of convertible debt and accrued interest of $46,377. A loss on conversion of debt amounting to $49,926 was recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 the Company recognized $1,200,016 of interest expense due to the amortization of debt discounts on all convertible and unsecured short term notes.

 

A summary of activity for notes payable during the six months ended June 30, 2014 is set forth below:

 

Balance at December 31, 2013		$	983,071

Odom - Line of Credit

 

On June 7, 2013, the Company entered into a Revolving Line of Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Charles Odom, the lender, in the amount of $750,000. Pursuant to the Agreement, the lender agreed to make loans to the Company from time to time commencing on the date of the Agreement for a period of twenty four (24) months thereafter ending June 7, 2015. As of June 30, 2014, the Company has drawn $475,000 from the line of credit. As required by the Agreement, the Company also issued 118,750 shares to the lender, proportionate to amounts drawn, which was recognized as deferred financing fees of $475,000 and amortized over the term of the line of credit. For the six months ended June 30, 2014, $128,170 has been amortized to interest expense. All amounts drawn from the line of credit are subject to annual interest of 15% and will mature within a period of 12 months or within 14 days after the Company has a capital raise with proceeds of $10 million, whichever is earlier. We have been advised by the lender that, due to extenuating circumstances, it is not currently able to provide us with additional advances under the line of credit.

 

Wells Fargo - Line of Credit

 

As part of the acquisition of EQmentor, Inc. the Company obtained an operating line of credit from Wells Fargo, secured by assets of the former majority shareholder of EQmentor, Inc. The amount of the line of credit is $500,000 with a provision for over-limit drawdowns. The current over-limit drawdown at June 30, 2014 is $149,846. Interest is charged at a rate of 3.5% per annum. We have drawn down $635,005 as of June 30, 2014.

 

Note 4 – Other Long-Term Obligation

 

As a component of the MCC acquisition the Company acquired a long term liability related to a previous recapitalization of MCC. Specifically, MCC entered into an arrangement with its creditors during 2010, in a “Company Voluntary Arrangement” (“CVA”), in order to protect MCC from any unreceptive creditor action. In connection with the arrangement, the Company is required to make monthly fixed payments to a trustee of $2,275 (£1,500 GBP).These payments are scheduled to end in February 2019.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014:

 

-

the Company  issued 925,728  shares of  common stock  for  cash  proceeds of $478,520. This  includes 705,166 shares issued to an investor for total proceeds of $338,480 (250,000 euros). This investment was predicated on the Company's acquisition of GroupCard BV (see Note 7). As such, under the terms of the subscription agreement, if either of the following two events occur the Company would be required to return the investment back to the investor.   1. If the Company does NOT complete the acquisition of GroupCard BV within 45 days of the investment, the Company would be required to return the investment over a four month period. This provision was met when the Company acquired GroupCard BV on July 7, 2014 (see Note 7).   2. If the Company completes the acquisition of GroupCard BV and is unable to provide the amount of working capital of $400,000 within Ninety (90) days, on the first request of the investor, the Company would be required to remit to the investor the investment over the subsequent 12 months.   In either case of “default” the investor would be required to return 564,133 shares of the Company's common stock received under the subscription agreement and would be allowed to retain the remaining 141,033 shares of the Company's common stock. The Company believes that it will be in a position to fund this requirement within the designated time period.

Overview

 

On February 1, 2013, we entered into an Acquisition and Share Exchange Agreement (which we refer to as the Exchange Agreement) with EFactor, a Delaware corporation, and certain shareholders of EFactor (which we refer to as the Share Exchange), pursuant to which 20 holders of approximately 70% of the outstanding common stock of EFactor (the “Original Sellers”) agreed to transfer to us 6,580,250 shares of common stock of EFactor in exchange for the issuance of: (a) 50,000,000 shares of our common stock; (b) 5,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; and (c) an additional 22,231,155 shares of our common stock upon the effectiveness of the 1:40 reverse stock split of our common stock (the “Additional Shares”).  The Share Exchange closed on February 11, 2013.

Factors Affecting Results of Operations

 

Historically, our operating expenses have exceeded our revenues. For our two most recent fiscal years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012, we have incurred net losses of $5.9 million and $4.1 million, respectively. As in the prior fiscal years, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 we incurred a net loss of $5.3 million, and our operating expenses consisted primarily of the following:

 

 

·

Cost of revenue, which consists primarily of the cost of services including applied labor costs and benefits expenses, maintenance, facilities and other operating costs associated with our revenues;

·

Salaries and wages, which consist primarily of common stock and cash, issued for services; and

·

General and administrative expenses, which consist primarily of office rent and other administrative costs including professional fees.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to uncollectible receivables, inventory valuation, deferred compensation and contingencies. We base our estimates on historical performance and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates allow us to make judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.

 

We believe the following accounting policies are our critical accounting policies because they are important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and they require critical management judgments and estimates about matters that may be uncertain. If actual results or events differ materially from those contemplated by us in making these estimates, our reported financial condition and results of operations for future periods could be materially affected.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are presented net of discounts. In general, the Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered to the customer, (iii) the fee is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Where arrangements have multiple elements, revenue is allocated to the elements based on the relative selling price method and revenue is recognized based on the Company’s policy for each respective element. 

The Company applies judgment with respect to whether it can establish a selling price based on third party evidence. The Company does not have any product offerings that would be considered multiple deliverables; therefore the pricing model is determined based on competitor prices for similar product offerings. When it is unable to establish selling price using this method, the Company determines its best estimate for deliverables by considering multiple factors including, but not limited to, it’s pricing practices, profit margin, prices it charges for similar offerings, sales volume, geographies, market conditions, and the competitive landscape.

 

The Company generates revenue primarily from sales of the following services:

 

·

Member Fees —The Company holds a variety of networking and informational events for its members and sells various membership packages to customers that allow users to have access to premium services via the EFactor website. Revenue from member services is recognized ratably over the contractual period, generally from one to 12 months.

 

·

Sponsorships - The Company generates revenues from Sponsors in a variety of ways. Sponsors can gain exposure to the Company's members, either through placement or short write-ups in newsletters, on event invitations or by participating as a sponsor at one of the Company's Events where a Sponsor may provide access to its products or service (booth/stall) or by being a speaker or panelist at an event that fits in their industry. This revenue is recognized over the specific event timeline, which varies from a single day event or a longer-term promotional event over a series of weeks.

 

·

Public Relations - We provide market and brand awareness consulting services, targeting high and emerging technology and science companies, as well as professional service organizations that help get recognition within the practiced community and provide an explicit company identity.

 

·

Advertising — Visitor demographics and time spent on a website are the primary drivers behind advertising-based revenue models for internet properties. When a user clicks an advertisement (CPC basis), views an advertisement impression (CPM basis), registers for an external website via an advertisement clicked on through the Company’s application (CPA basis). Proceeds from such contracts is recognized over the period in which the advertisements are displayed on the websites.

 

·

Advisory Services —The Company promotes and makes available advisory and consulting services to members for the purpose of support, introduction guidance and general mentoring of members in their pursuit of their entrepreneurial objectives, for which fees are charged. These revenues are recorded when services for the transactions are determined to be concluded, generally as set forth under the terms of the engagement or when the sundry milestones have been completed after the defined services are performed. Transaction-related expenses, primarily consisting of costs directly associated with the transaction, are deferred and recognized in the same period as the transaction revenue.

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is not amortized, but is tested for impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Events that result in an impairment review include significant changes in the business climate, declines in our operating results, or an expectation that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We assess potential impairment by considering present economic conditions as well as future expectations

 

We review goodwill for impairment by performing a two-step goodwill impairment test. The first step of the two-step goodwill impairment test is to compare the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the second step of the two-step goodwill impairment test is required to measure the goodwill impairment loss. The second step includes valuing all the tangible and intangible assets of the reporting unit as if the reporting unit had been acquired in a business combination. Then, the implied fair value of the reporting unit’s goodwill is compared to the carrying amount of that goodwill. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit’s goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of the goodwill, we recognize an impairment loss in an amount equal to the excess, not to exceed the carrying amount. 

Calculating the fair value of a reporting unit and the implied fair value of reporting unit goodwill requires significant judgment. The use of different assumptions, estimates or judgments in either step of the goodwill impairment testing process, such as the estimated future cash flows of reporting units, the discount rate used to discount such cash flows, or the estimated fair value of the reporting units’ tangible and intangible assets and liabilities, could significantly increase or decrease the estimated fair value of a reporting unit or its net assets. There was no impairment charge for the period ended June 30, 2014.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We record stock-based compensation at fair value at the grant date and recognize the expense over the employee’s requisite service period. We use the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of the stock option grants. This valuation model for stock-based compensation expense requires us to make assumptions and judgments about variables used in the calculation, including the fair value of our common stock, the expected term (the period of time the options granted are expected to be outstanding), the volatility of our stock, a risk-free interest rate, and dividends. We plan to use the simplified calculation of expected term described in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment, and volatility based on an average of the historical volatilities of similar companies, as we do not have a history of a publicly traded stock price. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the options will be based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant

 

Foreign currency and foreign currency transactions

 

Balance sheet accounts of MCC International located in United Kingdom are translated from Sterling (GBP) into U.S. dollars at period-end exchange rates, and income and expense accounts are translated at average exchange rates during the period. Translation gains or losses related to net assets located in the United Kingdom are recorded as unrealized foreign currency translation adjustments within accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions (transactions denominated in a currency other than the entity's functional currency) are included in general and administrative expense in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

 

Comprehensive Loss

 

There are components of comprehensive loss other than net loss that the Company has incurred as it relates to foreign currency, and accordingly the Company now presents a comprehensive income and loss for the periods presented.

 

 

Results of Operations

 

Three Months ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Three Months Ended June 30, 2013

 

Revenue

 

Our revenue for the three month period ended June 30, 2014 was $148,586 compared to $228,175 for the three month period ended June 30, 2013. All of our revenue was derived from member payments, event fees, annual event packages, public relations and advertising revenue along with advisory fees, sponsorships and revenue shares with strategic partners. This decrease of approximately $113,000 in revenue is primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue from mentoring fees as a result of our transition in April 2014 to a new website with improved technology. The increase in advertising revenue of approximately $31,000 is primarily attributable to our concentrated efforts in developing this source of revenue.

 

The table below sets forth the amount of revenues we have recognized for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

 

		Three Months Ended June 30,
		2014				2013
Member Services		$	6,839			$	418
Sponsorships			3,411				3,604
Advertising			30,645				-
Advisory Services			1,437				114,343
Public Relations			106,254				109,810
		$	148,586			$	228,175

 

During the three months ended June 30, 2014 we continued to add value to the VIP membership, a premium membership that allows members to get discounts on webinars, events and our library of content (Knowledge) and have marketing campaigns on a regular basis amongst our growing member-base to increase the number of VIP members. We believe the premium memberships represent a substantial growth area for revenue. In addition to the VIP premium membership, we intend to launch additional premium memberships (all on a recurring revenue basis) such an ESpace premium membership which we initiated during the fourth quarter of 2013 to provide flexible office locations for our members.

 

The intention is to add other premium membership services going forward based on products and services our acquired companies can offer specifically to our members in the coming year.

 

Our mentoring and advisory fees are derived through EMentoring - our online/offline mentoring service that we plan to extend in the coming year as well as Sponsorships from companies that wish to gain exposure to our membership base. Sponsorship can be for a specific event or series of events or to gain placement in our newsletters or on the site.

 

We have recently begun the process of fully engaging "traditional" advertising on our site such as banners or pop-ups. We began this process of retargeted our advertising in 2013 keeping true to our beliefs of the intent not to have blatant advertising on our site.

 

Operating Costs and Expenses

 

Our operating expenses increased by $85,595 to $1,085,624 for the three month period ended June 30, 2014, from $1,000,029 for the three month period ended June 30, 2013. These increases were primarily due to additional depreciation and amortization of the Company's website of $59,228 in 2014 and loss on extinguishment of debt of $32,778.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense increased to $475,215 for the three month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to $141,011 for the three month period ended June 30, 2013. In the three month period ended June 30, 2014 our interest expenses included interest on notes payable we issued to meet our capital and operating requirements along with the amortization of $391,318 for the amortization of debt discount and share issuance costs relating to shares issued in connection with certain of our notes payable as part of the consideration provided to lenders for such loans. These notes will be converted to equity where possible and/or will be repaid. We believe we will repay or convert into common stock all outstanding notes subject to the raising further capital and increasing revenues over the course of the next 18 months.

 

Net Loss

 

Our net loss increased to $1,428,503 for the three months ended June 30, 2014, compared to $912,865 for the three month period ended June 30, 2013. The increase in net loss compared to the prior year period is primarily a result of the increase in operating expenses of $85,595, the increase in interest expense and amortization of debt discount of $334,204, as described above. A component of the increase in operating costs is caused by the need to continue to attract top-notch personnel, which increases our payroll costs.

 

 

Six Months Ended June 30, 2014 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2013

 

Revenue

 

Our revenue for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 was $265,131 compared to $416,937 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. All of our revenue was derived from member payments, event fees, annual event packages, public relations and advertising revenue along with advisory fees, sponsorships and revenue shares with strategic partners. The decrease of approximately $152,000 in the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2013 is primarily attributable to a decrease in revenue from mentoring fees as a result of our transition in April 2014 to a new website with improved technology.

 

The table below sets forth the amount of revenues we have recognized for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013:

 

		Six Months Ended June 30,

Operating Costs and Expenses

 

Our operating expenses increased by $1,366,803 to $3,514,326 for the six month period ended June 30, 2014, from $2,147,523 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. These increases were primarily due to the increase in stock based compensation of approximately $906,000 and an increase of approximately $440,000 for legal, accounting and other general and administrative expenditures.

 

Interest Expense

 

Our interest expense increased to $1,463,149 for the six month period ended June 30, 2014, compared to $309,397 for the six month period ended June 30, 2013. In the six month period ended June 30, 2014 our interest expenses included interest on notes payable we issued to meet our capital and operating requirements along with the amortization of $1,331,004 for the amortization of debt discount and share issuance costs relating to shares issued in connection with certain of our notes payable as part of the consideration provided to lenders for such loans. These notes will be converted to equity where possible and/or will be repaid. We believe we will repay or convert into common stock all outstanding notes subject to the raising further capital and increasing revenues over the course of the next 18 months.

 

Net Loss

 

Net loss increased to $5,338,413 for the six month period ended June 30, 2014 from $2,039,983 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in net loss compared to the prior year period is primarily a result of an increase in stock based compensation and amortization of debt discount as described above. A component of the increase in operating costs is caused by the need to continue to attract top-notch personnel, which increases our payroll costs.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Introduction

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014 because of our operating losses, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. Our cash on hand as of June 30, 2014 was $126,326 and our monthly cash flow burn rate, that now includes EQmentor and MCC International, has increased to approximately $200,000, excluding professional fees and consultants on an as needed basis. As a result, we have significant short-term cash needs. These needs historically have been satisfied through proceeds from the sales of our securities and/or issuance of promissory notes. We are expecting to reduce the need for such short term financing as we continue to build our revenues through both acquisitions and organic growth. (See “Cash Requirements” below). In order to repay our obligations in full or in part when due, we will be required to raise significant capital from other sources. There is no assurance, however, that we will be successful in these efforts.

 

 

Cash Requirements

 

We had cash available of $126,326 as of June 30, 2014. Based on our revenues, cash on hand and current monthly burn rate, around $200,000, excluding professional fees and consultants on an as needed basis, we will need to continue borrowing from our shareholders and other related parties, and/or raise money from the sales of our securities, to fund operations.

 

On June 7, 2013 we entered into a revolving line of credit (the “Line of Credit”) with an accredited investor for an amount of up to $750,000. Under the terms of the Line of Credit, the lender has agreed to advance to us for a period of 24 months ending on July 7, 2015 such amounts as we may request up to $750,000. All sums advanced will bear interest from the date each advance is made until paid-in-full at a rate of 15% per annum. Each advance will be due and payable in full 12 months following the day each advance is made. In addition, should we consummate a capital raise, that when aggregated with any preceding capital raise results in $10 million of gross proceeds (excluding amounts advanced under this line of credit) (the “Capital Raise”), all amounts due and payable under Line of Credit will become due and payable 14 days after the consummation of such Capital Raise. In addition to the repayment of each advance, we shall issue to the lender a total of 187,500 shares of restricted common stock upon the full draw down of the line. As of June 30, 2014 we issued 118,750 shares of restricted common stock based on the current advances to date. The number of shares issued in connection with the Line of Credit will be pro-rated according to the amount of the advance. In connection with the Line of Credit, we entered into a security agreement (the “Security Agreement”) with the lender, whereby we granted to lender, as collateral for our obligations to be performed under the Line of Credit. As of June 30, 2014, we received advances under the line of credit totaling $475,000. We have been advised by the lender that, due to extenuating circumstances, it is not currently able to provide us with additional advances under the Line of Credit. We believe that once the lender’s extenuating circumstances has been resolved, we will be able to obtain additional advances under the Line of Credit.

 

On November 7, 2007, EQmentor obtained a line of credit from Wells Fargo. The amount of the line of credit is $500,000 with a provision for over-limit drawdowns. The line of credit has a fifteen year term and interest on the line of credit accrues at 3.5% per annum. The line of credit is secured by certain assets, including the personal residence of the former majority shareholder of EQmentor, Inc. As of June 30, 2014, the current over-limit drawdown for the line of credit was $149,846. We have drawn down approximately $650,000 from the line of credit as of June 30, 2014, which is the maximum amount that can be drawn down from this facility.

 

The Company has been able to satisfy short term needs through the sale of securities to individual accredited investors, over the past year. Even though management has had success in the past in generating funds from these sundry sources of capital, there can be no assurance or certainties that we will be successful in procuring these types of proceeds in the future.

 

We expect to expend approximately $300,000 in 2014 in connection with development of our website and the expansion of our business. In addition, to strengthen our ability to generate higher revenues and profitability we intend to acquire strategically complementary businesses to significantly build our membership base and product/service offerings. The targeted businesses are either producing cash or sufficiently close to breakeven in order to not increase our burn rate. Additionally, we are closely monitoring and controlling our expenses.

 

To secure our long term objectives for growth and profitability we are in active discussions with investment banking firms to assist us with our long-term strategies. We believe we will require approximately $5.0 million as an interim step to achieve our mid-term goals, of which $2.5 million will be utilized to solidify our current business. There can be no assurance that we will be able to raise this amount of capital in the near future.

 

Operations

 

Net cash used in operating activities of $1,355,999 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $616,657 in cash used in operations for the six months ended June 30, 2013.  For the six months ended June 30 2014, the net cash used consisted primarily of the net loss of $5,338,413 offset by amortization of debt discount of $1,331,004, stock and option based expense of $1,423,467, loss on derivative valuation of $576,143, depreciation of $114,866, a loss on settlement of debt of $32,778, a loss on conversion of debt of $49,926, and an increase in operating current liabilities of $609,851.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014 the net cash provided by investing activities related to expenditures associated with building our website and increasing in the infrastructure and architecture needed to support the growth in the member base. For the six months ended June 30, 2013, the investing activities consisted of $225,001 related to the cash paid for the acquisition of property, website, and equipment; these investments were offset by $23,593 in cash acquired in acquisition of MCC, and $851 in cash acquired in the reverse merger with Standard Drilling.

 

Financing

 

Net cash provided by financing activities of $1,591,829 for the six months ended June 30, 2014, as compared to $793,497 in cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013. For the six months ended June 30 2014, the financing activities consisted primary of $1,143,452 in proceeds from notes payable, $478,520 in proceeds from common stock, offset by $30,143 in repayment of debt. For the six months ended June 30 2013, our financing activities consisted of $629,208 in proceeds from notes payable and $167,002 in proceeds from the issuance of shares

 

Capital Expenditures

 

We expect to expend approximately $100,000 in connection with development of our website and the expansion of our business during the next three months. We anticipate these expenditures will be funded by the Company’s operating cash flow along with the proceeds from additional private investments.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

·

As of June 30, 2014, we have not entered into any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement with an entity unconsolidated under which it has:

·

a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to the unconsolidated entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit;

·

liquidity or market risk support to such entity for such assets;

·

Going Concern

 

Our financial statements are prepared using generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate the realization of assets and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. Because our business is new and has no history and we have relatively few sales, no certainty of continuation can be stated. Our financial statements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

We have suffered losses from operations and have a working capital deficit, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Management is taking steps to raise additional funds to address our operating and financial cash requirements to continue operations in the next twelve months. Management has devoted a significant amount of time in the raising of capital from additional debt and equity financing. However, our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon raising additional funds through debt and equity financing and generating revenue. There are no assurances that we will receive the necessary funding or generate revenue necessary to fund operations. Our financial statements contain no adjustments for the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

We are a smaller reporting company and therefore, we are not required to provide information required by this Item of Form 10-Q.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. Disclosure and control procedures are also designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2014. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that there are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their desired control objectives. Additionally, in evaluating and implementing possible controls and procedures, management is required to apply its reasonable judgment. Based on the evaluation described above, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this report because we did not document our Sarbanes-Oxley Act Section 404 internal controls and procedures.

 

As funds become available to us, we expect to implement additional measures to improve disclosure controls and procedures such as implementing and documenting our internal controls procedures.

 

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting

 

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls 

 

A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control system’s objectives will be met.  The Company’s management, including its Principal Executive Officer and its Principal Financial Officer, do not expect that the Company’s disclosure controls will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud.  Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs.  Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.  These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  Controls can also be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the controls.  The design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.  Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or deterioration in the degree of compliance with associated policies or procedures.  Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. We are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or operating results.
