INTRODUCTORY NOTES


This Report on Form 10-Q for Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (“SIBE” or the “Company”) may contain forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future business success or financial results. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Accordingly, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.


The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and year ended December 31, 2013 and other periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, to the extent that this Report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of the Company, please be advised that SIBE’s actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated in such forward-looking statements.


The information contained in this report, except as specifically dated, is as of March 31, 2015.

Effective on February 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Shenzhen and certain accredited and institutional investors (together with Shenzhen, the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Investors purchased an aggregate of 53,571,429 Units (each, a “Unit”) for an aggregate cash raise of $3,250,000. Costs directly attributed to this equity raise aggregated to $469,000. Included in the aforementioned were 7,142,857 units issued in lieu of a $500,000 payment for fees attributed to this equity raise. Each Unit consists of: (1) a share of the Company’s common stock; (2) a warrant giving each of the Investors the right to purchase one additional share of common stock for each share owned at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.07 per share (each, an “A Warrant”); (3) a warrant giving each of the Investors the right to purchase one additional share of common stock for each share owned at any time and from time to time for a period of one year following the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the resale of the total number of shares of common stock acquired by the Investors in the transaction at an exercise price equal to the five-day volume weighted average price immediately preceding the exercise date (each, a “B Warrant”); and (4) only as part of and in connection with the purchase of the shares underlying the B Warrants (the “B Warrant Shares”), a warrant giving each of the Investors the right to purchase 0.50 shares of common stock for each B Warrant Share purchased by such Investors at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price equal to the purchase price of the B Warrant Shares (each, an “Additional Warrant” and together with the A Warrants and the B Warrants, the “Warrants”). The exercise prices of the Warrants may be reduced if the Company issues additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price lower than the Warrant exercise prices for so long as the Warrants remain outstanding. If all shares underlying all Warrants are ultimately issued, the Company will issue an aggregate of 187,500,001 shares of common stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement for additional proceeds.


On April 6, 2015, Shenzhen exercised the A Warrants in full and a portion of the B Warrants resulting in an additional 72,857,143 shares of common stock being issued to Shenzhen in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of $5,526,966. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, 42,857,143 of the shares received upon issuance of the A Warrants were issued at a price per share of $0.07. The remaining 30,000,000 shares received upon the partial exercise of the B Warrants were issued at a price per share of $0.0842322, which is equivalent to the volume weighted average price for the Company’s common stock for the five trading days preceding April 6, 2015, the date of exercise.


As a result of the exercise of the B Warrants and pursuant to the terms of the B Warrants, the Company issued Shenzhen Additional Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at any time and from time to time for a period of five years from the date of the Additional Warrants at an exercise price per share equal to $0.0842322, the purchase price of the shares issued pursuant to the B Warrants.


Following the exercise of the Warrants, Shenzhen holds 115,714,286 shares of the Company’s common stock, or 57.14% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of June 25, 2015.


Pursuant to the terms of the remaining Warrants, Shenzhen has the potential to purchase up to an additional 34,285,714 shares of the Company’s common stock. If all shares underlying all Warrants held by Shenzhen are ultimately issued to Shenzhen, Shenzhen will hold an aggregate of 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Of Shenzhen’s remaining Warrants, 15,000,000 are exercisable at $0.0842322 per share, which would result in an additional $1,263,483 in proceeds to the Company. Because the purchase price of the remaining 19,285,714 shares that Shenzhen has the right to acquire pursuant to its Warrants is dependent on the price of the Company’s common stock if and when such Warrants are exercised, the Company is unable to calculate the gross proceeds that would be received upon exercise of such Warrants.

MARCH 31, 2015 AND JUNE 30, 2014

(Unaudited)

 


Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


(a) Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. During 2014, the Company changed its fiscal financial reporting year end from December 31 to be June 30, which represents the operating year ends of its current business.

 

(b) Going Concern

 

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has limited revenues, has a working capital deficit of $669,292 and incurred a loss of $5,285,514 for the recent nine months ended March 31, 2015. However, in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”, the Company believes the substantial doubt has been alleviated. Although the Company continues to have limited revenues, the $2,881,000 of capital raised during the quarter ended March 31, 2015, and the $5,285,514 in the quarter ending June 30, 2015 (discussed in Note 10 - Subsequent Events), provide assurance of the Company’s ability to meet its obligations during the future.

 

(c) Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities, derivative liabilities, debt discounts, valuation of intangibles acquired in our acquisition, impairment of intangibles and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.


(d) Allowance for Doubtful Accounts


Accounts receivables are recorded at their estimated collectible amounts. Management evaluates the collectability of its receivables periodically, largely based on the historical trends with the customer as well as current financial information available. If it is deemed appropriate an allowance is recorded as an expense in the current period. As of March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2014, the Company recorded $3,926, and $0, respectively, in allowance for doubtful accounts.


(e) Intangibles


Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $1,722,408.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2015 AND JUNE 30, 2014

(f) Capitalized Software Costs


The Company develops software for internal use. Software development costs incurred during the application development stage are capitalized in accordance with FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), ASC 350, “Intangibles — Goodwill and Other”. The Company amortizes these costs over the estimated useful life of the software, which is generally three years. Capitalized software development costs are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company did not capitalize any internally developed software or content costs during either nine-month period ended March 31, 2015 or 2014.


(g) Investments


The Company holds a minority interest investment that is accounted for as a cost method investment.


(h) Revenue Recognition


The Company typically will receive in full or a large prepayment on account for the use of its Blended School courses for the successive K-12 school year commencing on July 1, as well as smaller prepayments for its Urban Planet Writing Planet contracts. Revenues are amortized ratably over the contract term with the customer, typically over twelve months. Deferred revenues represents customer prepayments on account for the subscribed software and course content.

 

(i) Income Taxes

 

The Company utilizes FASB ASC 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 estimated 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 period in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income. The Company’s recent equity raises and possibly past restructuring events have resulted in the occurrence of a triggering event as defined in Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which could limit the use of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards. The Company has yet to undertake a study to quantify any limitations on the use of its net operating loss carryforwards.


(j) Financial Instruments


In accordance with the requirements of FASB ASC 820, “Financial Instruments, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, the Company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and amounts due to related parties approximate fair values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.


Certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are measured in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05. “Fair Value Measurements” (“Topic 820-10-05”). Topic 820-10-05 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities as well as for non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.


Topic 820-10-05 requires fair value measurement be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:


Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;


Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

SIBLING GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

MARCH 31, 2015 AND JUNE 30, 2014

(Unaudited)

 



Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

 

Items subject to the Level 3 unobservable inputs is the $5,000 minority investment.

  

(k) Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“ASC 718”). Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the award’s fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (“BSM”) option-pricing model and/or market price of conversion shares, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various highly judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected option life. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model change significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical experience. Further, if the extent of the Company’s actual forfeiture rate is different from the estimate, then the stock-based compensation expense is adjusted accordingly.

 

The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with FASB ASC 505-50 “Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees” (“ASC 505-50”). Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received, or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by ASC 505-50.


(l) Loss per Share

 

The Company computes loss per share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”), which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. ASC 260 requires companies that have multiple classes of equity securities to use the “two-class” of “if converted method” in computing earnings per share. The Company computes loss per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. The Company has excluded all common equivalent shares outstanding for warrants to purchase common stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because all such securities are antidilutive for the periods presented. As of March 31, 2015 and 2014, there were common stock equivalents outstanding of 100,428,572 and 0, respectively.

(m) Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern”. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 provide guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is a substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt; (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods; (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans; (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans; (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted.


In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”). ASU 2014-09 gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, ASC 2014-09 would supersede some cost guidance included in ASC Subtopic 605-35, “Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts”. ASC 2014-09 removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, ASC 2014-09 improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. ASC 2014-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. The Company is currently reviewing the provisions of ASU 2014-09 to determine if there will be any impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.


In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-12, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718); Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period” (“ASU 2014-12”).  The amendments in ASU 2014-12 apply to all reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in ASC 718 as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. For all entities, the amendments in ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities.


Entities may apply the amendments in ASU 2014-12 either (1) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (2) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. If retrospective transition is adopted, the cumulative effect of applying ASU 2014-12 as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements should be recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance at that date. Additionally, if retrospective transition is adopted, an entity may use hindsight in measuring and recognizing the compensation cost. ASU 2014-12 is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

 

All other new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective or adopted have been deemed to be not relevant to the Company and, accordingly, are not expected to have a material impact once adopted.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand the financial condition and results of operations of Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”). The MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes thereto.


Overview


Our mission is to discover, develop and deliver resources to expand and improve lifelong learning opportunities and achievement. The mission is accomplished by applying funds from the public capital markets and revenues in a unified strategy of growth and acquisitions to accelerate the improvement of early childhood, K-12, post-secondary and corporate education around the world.


Recent Developments


BlendedSchools.Net


As of May 30, 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of the assets of BlendedSchools.Net (“Blended Schools”) for a purchase price of $550,000, which included the assumption of $446,187 of Blended Schools’ debt and cash payments totaling $103,813. In addition, we agreed to pay certain other debts of Blended Schools as provided for in the asset purchase agreement.


Blended Schools provides online curriculum with 192 master courses for the K-12 marketplace, all Common Core compatible; a complete hosted course authoring and learning management system environment featuring both Blackboard and Canvas; and the new Learning Institute, with online courses in Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, French, Japanese, Latin, Russian, German and Hindi, all oriented to meet today’s ESL requirements. During fiscal year 2015, sales of the Learning Institute have increased 9.5%, which we believe has been driven by growth in demand for online credit recovery programs that enable students to earn credits necessary for graduation.


Urban Planet Media & Entertainment, Corp.


On January 28, 2015, the Company entered into a share exchange agreement (the “Share Exchange Agreement”) with Urban Planet Media & Entertainment, Corp. (“Urban Planet”) and its shareholders pursuant to which the Company issued 10,500,000 shares of its common stock to the shareholders of Urban Planet in exchange for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Urban Planet. As a result, and as contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement, Urban Planet became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.


Each share of preferred stock issued to the former Urban Planet shareholders is convertible by the holder (1) at any time after 24 months after the original issue date or (2) at any time after delivery of notice by the Company of the occurrence of certain conversion events set forth in the certificate of designation establishing the preferred stock into that number of shares of common stock determined by dividing the stated value of such shares of preferred stock, which is $10.00 per preferred share, by the conversion price. The conversion price of the preferred stock is $0.50, subject to adjustment as stated in the certificate of designation.


On June 16, 2015, the Company concluded that it was necessary to write down the value of the investment in Urban Planet, based on industry information from an independent third party, to two times the revenue reported by Urban Planet for the calendar year 2014, which totaled $249,692. As a result, the Company incurred a non-cash impairment charge in the amount of $1,722,408, which is reported as “Impairment of Urban Planet assets acquired” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations filed as part of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company’s determination to recognize the impairment charge was based on the expiration of a grant and service agreement that previously contributed to Urban Planet revenues and the Company’s decision to suspend the development of a proposed Urban Planet product. The Company does not expect to incur any material future cash expenditures in connection with the write-down of Urban Planet.


The Company implemented certain cost-savings initiatives in an effort to offset the write-down, including a reduction in personnel and termination of the Company’s office lease in North Carolina, resulting in annualized savings of $329,104.

Capital Investments and Change of Control


During the quarter ended March 31, 2015, the Company received a strategic investment from Shenzhen City Qianhai Xinshi Education Management Co., Ltd., a company based and operating in the People’s Republic of China (“Shenzhen”). The strategic investment was provided to accelerate the Company’s growth and expansion into critical strategic markets around the world, including China.


Effective on February 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Shenzhen and certain accredited and institutional investors (together with Shenzhen, the “Investors”).  Pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Investors purchased an aggregate of 53,571,429 Units (each, a “Unit”) for an aggregate purchase price of $3,750,000.  Each Unit consists of: (1) a share of the Company’s common stock; (2) a warrant giving each of the Investors the right to purchase one additional share of common stock for each share owned at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.07 per share (each, an  “A Warrant”); (3) a warrant giving each of the Investors  the right to purchase one additional share of common stock for each share owned at any time and from time to time for a period of one year following the effectiveness of a registration statement covering the resale of the total number of shares of common stock acquired by the Investors in the transaction at an exercise price equal to the five-day volume weighted average price immediately preceding the exercise date (each, a “B Warrant”); and (4) only as part of and in connection with the purchase of the shares underlying the B Warrants (the “B Warrant Shares”), a warrant giving each of the Investors the right to purchase 0.50 shares of common stock for each B Warrant Share purchased by such Investors at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price equal to the purchase price of the B Warrant Shares (each, an “Additional Warrant” and together with the A Warrants and the B Warrants, the “Warrants”).  The exercise prices of the Warrants may be reduced if the Company issues additional shares of common stock or securities convertible into common stock at a price lower than the Warrant exercise prices for so long as the Warrants remain outstanding.  If all shares underlying all Warrants are ultimately issued, the Company will issue an aggregate of 187,500,001 shares of common stock pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement for additional proceeds.


Effective on February 27, 2015, the Company also entered into an Advisory Fee Agreement (the “Advisory Fee Agreement”) with V3 Capital Partners, LLC and certain of its affiliates (the “Advisor”) in connection with advisory, due diligence and financing activities performed by the Advisor in connection with the transaction with Shenzhen described herein.  Pursuant to the Advisory Fee Agreement, the Company agreed to pay or issue to Advisor: (1) a cash payment of $437,000; (2) $312,000 of Units on the same terms and conditions as those issued in connection with the Shenzhen transaction; and (3) a warrant giving the Advisor the right to purchase up to an aggregate of 26,785,714 shares of common stock at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.07 per share.  Additionally, the Company agreed to pay Advisor a pro rata portion of the advisory fees detailed above in (1) and (2) on a similar percentage basis as the above fees upon exercise of any A Warrant, B Warrant or Additional Warrant and the fees described in clause (3) on a similar percentage basis as the above fee on the exercise of the B Warrant.  The Company also agreed to pay $100,000 of Shenzhen’s and Advisor’s legal and due diligence expenses and a total of $120,000 for ongoing investor relations and advisory services for a twelve-month period.


The Company also entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with an accredited investor, effective as of February 27, 2015 (“the Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the investor purchased an aggregate of 1,428,571 shares of the Company’s common stock for aggregate proceeds of $100,000. Additionally, the investor received a warrant giving him the right to purchase up to 1,428,571 shares of common stock at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.10 per share.


On April 6, 2015, Shenzhen exercised the A Warrants in full and a portion of the B Warrants resulting in an additional 72,857,143 shares of common stock being issued to Shenzhen in exchange for an aggregate purchase price of $5,526,966. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, 42,857,143 of the shares received upon issuance of the A Warrants were issued at a price per share of $0.07. The remaining 30,000,000 shares received upon the partial exercise of the B Warrants were issued at a price per share of $0.0842322, which is equivalent to the volume weighted average price for the Company’s common stock for the five trading days preceding April 6, 2015, the date of exercise.


As a result of the exercise of the B Warrants and pursuant to the terms of the B Warrants, the Company issued Shenzhen Additional Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 15,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at any time and from time to time for a period of five years from the date of the Additional Warrants at an exercise price per share equal to $0.0842322, the purchase price of the shares issued pursuant to the B Warrants.


Following the exercise of the Warrants, Shenzhen holds 115,714,286 shares of the Company’s common stock, or 57.14% of the Company’s total issued and outstanding shares of common stock as of June 25, 2015.



20



 


Pursuant to the terms of the remaining Warrants, Shenzhen has the potential to purchase up to an additional 34,285,714 shares of the Company’s common stock. If all shares underlying all Warrants held by Shenzhen are ultimately issued to Shenzhen, Shenzhen will hold an aggregate of 150,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Of Shenzhen’s remaining warrants, 15,000,000 are exercisable at $0.0842322 per share, which would result in an additional $1,263,483 in proceeds to the Company. Because the purchase price of the remaining 19,285,714 shares that Shenzhen has the right to acquire pursuant to its Warrants is dependent on the price of the Company’s common stock if and when such Warrants are exercised, the Company is unable to calculate the gross proceeds that would be received upon exercise of such Warrants.


In connection with Shenzhen’s exercise of the Warrants, pursuant to the Advisory Fee Agreement with the Advisor, the Company issued a total of 6,061,708 shares of common stock and warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 30,154,269 shares of common stock at any time and from time to time for a period of five years at an exercise price of $0.0842322 per share to the Advisor and its affiliates.


Commencement of Marketing and Acquisition Strategy


The Company’s new leadership team has refined the overall Company strategy to concentrate on K-12 online learning tools and created a strategic plan to fully leverage the investment provided by Shenzhen for growth. For the remainder of fiscal 2015 and into fiscal 2016, the Company will focus on developing and enhancing the Blended Schools content to better compete in all markets; refining our sales and marketing to drive an increase in sales; and meeting a growing international demand for U.S. K-12 education tools.


In furtherance of these goals, the Company has engaged a reputable public relations and communications firm to advise on the branding and positioning of the Company in the education marketplace, and has hired a Chief Business Development Officer and new sales team members to improve our sales strategy and efforts. In addition, the Company will continue to form partnerships and develop certain of its products to grow its position in the online education market, including the expanding credit recovery program market. Along these lines, the Company hired a Chief Academic Officer to oversee our academic content development and improvement.


Management Changes


On January 28, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement with Urban Planet, Maurine Findley resigned as our Chief Executive Officer and was appointed as Chairman of the Board of Directors. In addition, we entered into an employment agreement with Brian A. OliverSmith pursuant to which we appointed him as our Chief Executive Officer, and the Board of Directors appointed him to serve as a member of the Board. On the same date, Amy Lance and Mack Leath resigned from our Board.

Effective as of May 12, 2015, Brian OliverSmith was removed from the Board of Directors of the Company.

Recent Trends


International demand for U.S. secondary education content has significantly increased as a result of the demand for U.S. college and university degrees. According to the Institute of International Education, the number of students worldwide pursuing higher education degrees from countries outside of their home countries grew from 3.0 million in 2005 to 4.3 million in 2011, and is projected to reach 8.0 million by 2025.  As a result, international high schools have implemented dual diploma programs which allows students to receive a diploma from their local high school and from a U.S. based high school.


The Company will leverage local partnerships in countries where there is significant demand for U.S. K-12 content to provide products to the rapidly growing market of international students.


In addition, the growth and quality improvement in online learning and mounting pressure on educators to boost retention and graduation rates have contributed to a substantial growth in online credit recovery programs that allow students to earn credits toward high school graduation. More than half of the school districts in the U.S. offer online courses and services because of their efficiency, low cost and flexibility. We have seen an increase in the sales of our Learning Institute language programs as a result of this growth, and we expect this growth to continue. Furthermore, we intend to develop and improve additional products to expand our presence in this rising market.

We had a working capital deficit of $669,293, $1,948,237 in cash and $1,430,242 of intangible assets as of March 31, 2015, compared to a working capital deficit of $1,824,145 and $27,250 in cash and $1,225,461 of intangible assets as of June 30, 2014.

We received an additional $5,526,962 in working capital through the exercise of warrants by Shenzhen on April 6, 2015.  These investments provide the funds necessary to develop new business, generate sales, and meet our operating and financing obligations as they become due.


Critical Accounting Policies


The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure on contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

 

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and may potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Our critical accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  In the first nine months of fiscal 2015, there were no changes to the significant accounting policies.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


Evaluation of Disclosure Controls


The Company has established disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and, as such, is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management, together with our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of March 31, 2015.  Based on their evaluation, the principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, due to material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as described below, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2015.


Material Weaknesses


As previously reported in our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended June 30, 2014, we identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting: (1) lack of sufficient resources to ensure compliance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the rules and regulations of the SEC, especially with regards to equity-based transactions and tax accounting expertise; and (2) lack of sufficient resources to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. The control deficiencies noted did not result in any audit adjustments to the Company’s 2014 transitional financial statements.


Management, together with our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has identified the following additional material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, in addition to those described above: (1) lack of segregation of duties; and (2) inadequate security over information technology.


In light of these material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, we completed substantive procedures, including the inspection of support for transactions and balances and tests of the mechanical accuracy of balances, prior to filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.  These additional procedures have allowed management to conclude that, notwithstanding the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.


In response to the material weaknesses, we have begun to explore and develop a remediation plan for implementing new internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures. Once finalized and placed in operation for a sufficient period of time, we will subject these controls and procedures to appropriate tests in order to determine whether they are operating effectively. Management, with oversight from the Board of Directors, is committed to the remediation of known material weaknesses as expeditiously as possible.


Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting


With the oversight of management and our Board of Directors, we have continued to evaluate the underlying causes of the material weaknesses. Other than with respect to the development of an ongoing plan for remediation of the material weaknesses, there has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS


We are not presently a party to any material litigation, nor to the knowledge of management is any litigation threatened against us that may materially affect us.


ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS


In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended June 30, 2014, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results.  Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to these risk factors as described in the Transition Report.


We have determined that our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting are currently not effective. The lack of effective internal controls could materially adversely affect our financial condition and ability to carry out our business plan.


For the six-month transition period ended June 30, 2014, our management team, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our internal controls and determined that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective. At March 31, 2015, we concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at a reasonable assurance level because of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting that continue to exist. Until we have been able to complete and test the effectiveness of the remediation of our internal controls and ensure the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, any material weaknesses may materially adversely affect our ability to report accurately our financial condition and results of operations in the future in a timely and reliable manner. In addition, although we continually review and evaluate internal control systems to allow management to report on the sufficiency of our internal controls, we cannot assure you that we will not discover additional weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Any such additional weakness or failure to remediate the existing weakness could materially adversely affect our financial condition or ability to comply with applicable financial reporting requirements and the requirements.

ITEM 5.

OTHER INFORMATION.


(a)

On June 16, 2015, the Company concluded that it was necessary to write down the value of the investment in Urban Planet, based on industry information from an independent third party, to two times the revenue reported by Urban Planet for the calendar year 2014, which totaled $249,692. As a result, the Company incurred a non-cash impairment charge in the amount of $1,722,408, which is reported as “Impairment of Urban Planet assets acquired” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations filed as part of this quarterly report on Form 10-Q. The Company’s determination to recognize the impairment charge was based on the expiration of a grant and service agreement that previously contributed to Urban Planet revenues and the Company’s decision to suspend the development of a proposed Urban Planet product.  The Company does not expect to incur any material future cash expenditures in connection with the write-down of Urban Planet.


As described in Part II, “Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the Company issued shares of its common stock in unregistered transactions on January 8, 2015 and January 28, 2015, which description is incorporated herein by reference.  

In addition, on May 26, 2015, the Company authorized the issuance of 2,000,000 shares of its common stock to certain employees, shareholders and other service providers to Urban Planet in unregistered transactions in reliance on the exemption set forth in Section 4(a)(2). The shares were issued as compensation for services and in recognition of contributions to Urban Planet and had been reserved by the Company for issuance for these purposes pursuant to the terms of the Share Exchange Agreement.


(b)

There have been no material changes to the procedures by which security holders may recommend nominees to the Company’s Board of Directors since the filing of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2014.
