NUVEL HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
(Unaudited)

Note 1.  Business Organization and Nature of Operations
 
Nuvel Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") seeks to design, develop and markets Data Acceleration solutions that are built for the purpose of accelerating and optimizing the flow of information across Enterprise networks. The Company’s products are intended to be deployed by its customers throughout their network infrastructures to improve the performance of their networks and reduce network costs, while enhancing network speed and optimization.
 
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP for annual financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which  are  considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2015 and the results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year ending December 31, 2015 or any other period.
 
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures of the Company as of December 31, 2014 and for the year then ended, which were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on Form 10­-K on June 22, 2015.
 
Note 2. Going Concern and Management Plans
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had a working capital deficiency of $3,655,194 and a stockholders’ deficiency of $3,655,194.  Furthermore, as of the date of this filing, the Company has $275,000 and $573,495 of notes payable and convertible notes payable, respectively, that have matured and are in default.  The Company has not generated any material revenues and incurred net losses since inception. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.  The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset amounts or the classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
 
The Company's primary source of operating funds since inception has been note financings. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company secured additional debt financing in the form of Notes Payable resulting in gross proceeds of $163,000. The Company intends to raise additional capital from private debt and equity investors. The Company needs to raise additional capital in order to be able to accomplish its business plan objectives.  The Company is continuing its efforts to secure additional funds through debt or equity financings. Management believes that it can be successful in obtaining additional financing based on its limited history of raising funds; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to do so. There is no assurance that any funds raised will be sufficient to enable the Company to attain profitable operations or continue as a going concern. To the extent that the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may need to curtail or cease its operations and implement a plan to extend payables or reduce overhead until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations. There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.
 
On October 24, 2014, the Company entered into a letter of intent (the “Letter of Intent”) with OrangeHook, Inc., (“Orange Hook”) a Minnesota Corporation. Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the Company and OrangeHook will merge or combine their assets, with the Company as the surviving corporation (the “Transaction.”) The anticipated closing date is to be during the third quarter of 2015 (“the Closing.”)  As a result of the intended business combination, the Company will acquire all of the equity or assets of OrangeHook subject to the terms of the Letter of Intent. The Company will issue common stock to the shareholders of OrangeHook such that after the Transaction (and prior to any financing at the time of the Transaction), OrangeHook shareholders will own approximately 85% of the Company and the pre-Transaction Nuvel shareholders will own approximately 15% of the Company, which is subject to adjustment  by  negotiation  of the parties. The Company will account for the Transaction as a reverse acquisition in which OrangeHook will be deemed the accounting acquirer.  Through the date of this filing, pursuant to the Letter of Intent, OrangeHook provided $582,249 as bridge financing to the Company, in the form of an unsecured loan to assist the Company in completing the necessary filings with the SEC such that it will be current in its reporting obligations. Conditions to Closing include that the Company be current in its SEC reports, that each of the financings set forth in the Letter of Intent have occurred and that any necessary shareholder approval has been obtained. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be successful.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

Principles of Consolidation
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly­-owned subsidiary, Nuvel, Inc. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. The Company’s significant estimates and assumptions include the fair value of our stock, debt discount, derivative liabilities, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.
 
Net Loss Per Share
 
The Company computes basic net loss per share by dividing net loss per share available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and excludes the effects of any potentially dilutive securities. Diluted earnings per share, if presented, would include the dilution that would occur upon the exercise or conversion of all potentially dilutive securities into common stock using the “treasury stock” and/or “if converted” methods as applicable. The computation of basic and diluted loss per share excludes potentially dilutive securities because their inclusion would be anti­dilutive. Anti­dilutive securities excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, are as follows:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The carrying amounts of cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate fair value due to the short­ term nature of these instruments. The carrying amounts of the Company’s short term credit obligations approximate fair value because the effective yields on these obligations, which include contractual interest rates taken together with other features such as concurrent issuance of warrants and/or embedded conversion options, are comparable to rates of returns for instruments of similar credit risk.
 
The Company measures the fair value of financial assets and liabilities based on the guidance of ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.
 
ASC 820 defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the derivative conversion features and warrant liabilities.  Since the value of the common stock was de minimus as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the values of the derivative conversion features and warrant liabilities were also de minimus as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

Level 3 Valuation Techniques
 
Level 3 financial liabilities consist of the warrant liabilities for which there is no current market for these securities such that the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. Changes in fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are analyzed each period by management based on changes in estimates or assumptions and recorded as appropriate.

The derivative liabilities are measured at fair value using a compound option model that includes characteristics of both a binomial lattice and Black ­Scholes formula and are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

A significant decrease in the volatility or a significant increase in the Company’s stock price, in isolation, would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Changes in the values of the derivative liabilities are recorded in Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liabilities within Other Expense on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of operations.
 
Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated subsequent events or transactions occurring through the date on which the financial statements were issued.

Note 4. Convertible Notes Payable
 
On January 1, 2015, an event of default occurred on convertible notes totaling $636,249.  The event of default pertained to the Company failing to make a required interest payment on December 31, 2014.  On July 7, 2015, the holders of the convertible notes waived the event of default provisions.  As consideration for the waiver, the Company increased the principal amounts on the notes from $636,249 to $816,879.  As a result, the Company will account for the waiver as an extinguishment and recognize the increased principal amount of the note.  The maturity dates of these notes were extended to September 30, 2015.  All remaining terms of the convertible notes remained the same.
 
As of the date of this filing, additional convertible notes payable totaling $573,495 have passed their respective maturity dates and have not been repaid.  As of the maturity date of the notes, the interest rates increased to the default rate of 16% and the interest is being accrued.
 
Note 5. Notes Payable
 
Amendments to Notes

In February 2015, the Company issued 125,000 shares with a de minimus value to an investor in conjunction with an August 2014 amendment to a $100,000 note subscription agreement.

Unsecured Bridge Loan (see Note 2)

OrangeHook provided $262,000 as bridge financing to the Company at various dates during the six months ended June 30, 2015, in the form of unsecured loans.  The loans bear interest at 2% per annum and mature in one year.
 
Effective January 1, 2015 and as of the date of this filing, notes payable totaling $275,000 passed their maturity dates and have not been repaid.  The notes are being carried as due on demand.
 
Note 6.  Commitments and Contingencies

Services Agreement
 
On March 11, 2014, the Company signed a services agreement with Richard Resnick to provide services equivalent to a Chief Executive Officer. The Company agreed to pay Mr. Resnick $25,000 per month in bi­monthly installments. Either party is entitled to terminate the services agreement by providing the other party 15 days written notice of such desired termination.

Litigations, Claims and Assessments
 
In the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising in the ordinary course of business. Such matters are subject to many uncertainties, and outcomes are not predictable with assurance. There were no such matters as of June 30, 2015.
 
As of June 30, 2015 and through the date of this filing, the Company has not filed certain federal and state income and payroll tax returns nor has it paid the payroll tax amounts and related interest and penalties relating to such returns.

Note 7. Stockholders’ Deficiency

●      1,500,000 warrants were issued to a law firm
●      1,418,846 warrants were issued to a CFO outsourcing firm

Recent Developments

As reported by the Company on its Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 4, 2015, on July 30, 2015, Mr. Richard Resnick and Mr. James L. Mandel were appointed as members of the Company’s Board of Directors and Jay Elliot resigned from his position as a director of the Company.

Plan of Operations

The Company, through its wholly ­owned subsidiary Nuvel DE, plans to engage in the business of designing, developing and selling a family of proxy and other appliances, and related software and services that secure, accelerate and optimize the delivery of business applications, Web content and other information to distributed users over private Enterprise networks, or across an enterprise’s gateway to the public Internet (also known as the Web). Our products will strive to provide our end user customers with information about the applications and Web traffic running on their networks, including the ability to discover, classify, manage and control communications between users and applications across internal networks, the WAN and the Internet. Our products are also designed with the intent to accelerate and optimize the performance of our end users’ business applications and content, whether used internally or hosted by external providers.
 
Our primary activities have been working on developing the design and development of our products, seeking to negotiate strategic alliances and other agreements and attempting to raise capital. We have not commenced our principal operations, nor have we generated any material revenues. Since inception, we have incurred substantial losses. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our accumulated deficit was $15,298,383 and $14,528,573, respectively, our stockholders’ deficiency was $3,655,194 and $2,885,184, respectively, and our working capital deficiency was $3,655,194 and $2,885,184, respectively. Furthermore, as of the date of this filing, the Company has $275,000 and $573,495 of notes payable and convertible notes payable, respectively, that have matured and are in default. We have not yet generated revenues and our losses have principally been operating expenses incurred in design, development, marketing and promotional activities in order to commercialize our products. We expect to continue to incur additional costs for operating and marketing activities over at least the next year.
 
Based upon our working capital deficiency as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 and the lack of any revenues, we require equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company secured additional debt financing in the form of Notes Payable resulting in gross proceeds of $163,000. The Company intends to raise additional capital from private debt and equity investors. The Company needs to raise additional capital in order to be able to accomplish its business plan objectives.  The Company is continuing its efforts to secure additional funds through debt or equity financings.  Management believes that it will be successful in obtaining additional financing based on its limited history of raising funds; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to do so. There is no assurance that any funds it raises will be sufficient to enable the Company to attain profitable operations or continue as a going concern. To the extent that the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may need to curtail or cease its operations and implement a plan to extend payables or reduce overhead until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations.  There can be no assurance that such a plan will be successful.  See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” and “Availability of Additional Funds” below.

On October 24, 2014, the Company entered into a letter of intent (the “Letter of Intent”) with OrangeHook, Inc., (“Orange Hook”) a Minnesota corporation. Pursuant to the Letter of Intent, the Company and OrangeHook will merge or combine their assets, with the Company as the surviving corporation (the “Transaction.”)  The anticipated closing date is to be during the third quarter of 2015 (“the Closing.”)   As a result of the intended business combination, the Company will acquire all of the equity or assets of OrangeHook subject to the terms of the Letter of Intent. The Company will issue common stock to the shareholders of OrangeHook such that after the Transaction (and prior to any financing at the time of the Transaction), OrangeHook shareholders will own approximately 85% of the Company and the pre-Transaction Nuvel shareholders will own approximately 15% of the Company, which is subject to adjustment  by  negotiation  of the parties. The Company will account for the Transaction as a reverse acquisition in which OrangeHook will be deemed the accounting acquirer.  Through the date of this filing, pursuant to the Letter of Intent, OrangeHook provided $582,249 as bridge financing to the Company, in the form of an unsecured loan to assist the Company in completing the necessary filings with the SEC such that it will be current in its reporting obligations. Conditions to Closing include that the Company be current in its SEC reports, that each of the financings set forth in the Letter of Intent have occurred and that any necessary shareholder approval has been obtained. There can be no assurance that the Transaction will be successful.

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities
 
We experienced negative cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 in the amounts of $(263,322) and $(180,230), respectively. The cash used in operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2015 was primarily due to cash used to fund operations of the Company and to become current on its public filings.  The Company depleted its cash reserves by the end of the first quarter of 2013, which caused the Company to curtail operations for approximately one year. Due to the bridge notes and unsecured loan funds received subsequent to March 31, 2014, the Company was able to resume operations on a limited basis.
 
Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities
 
Cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $262,000 and $285,200, respectively.  The cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2015 was attributable to the proceeds from the unsecured loans from Orange Hook while the cash provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was attributable to proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes payable.
 
Availability of Additional Funds
 
Based upon our working capital deficiency as of June 30, 2015 and the lack of any revenues, we require equity and/or debt financing to continue our operations. Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company secured additional debt financing in the form of Notes Payable resulting in gross proceeds of $163,000. The Company is seeking to raise additional capital through private debt and equity investors. The Company needs to raise additional capital in order to be able to accomplish its business plan objectives. The Company is continuing its efforts to secure additional funds through debt or equity financings. Management believes that it will be successful in obtaining additional financing based on its limited history of raising funds; however, no assurance can be provided that the Company will be able to do so. There is no assurance that any funds it raises will be sufficient to enable the Company to attain profitable operations or continue as a going concern. To the extent that the Company is unsuccessful, the Company may need to curtail or cease its operations and implement a plan to extend payables or reduce overhead until sufficient additional capital is raised to support further operations.
 
We may be unable to raise sufficient additional capital when we need it or to raise capital on favorable terms. Debt financing may require us to pledge certain assets and enter into covenants that could restrict certain business activities or our ability to incur further indebtedness, and may contain other terms that are not favorable to our stockholders or us. If we are unable to obtain adequate funds on reasonable terms, we may be required to significantly curtail or discontinue operations or to obtain funds by entering into financing agreements on unattractive terms.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
- 14 -

 
 
 
 
 
 
These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate our continuation as a going concern and the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The carrying amounts of assets and liabilities presented in the consolidated financial statements do not necessarily purport to represent realizable or settlement values. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustment that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
 
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
 
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at dates of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Our significant estimates and assumptions include amortization, the fair value of our stock, debt discount, warrant liabilities, and the valuation allowance relating to the Company’s deferred tax assets.
 
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
 
As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, there were no off balance sheet arrangements.
 
 
Pursuant to Item 305(e) of Regulation S­K (§ 229.305(e)), the Company is not required to provide the information required by this Item as it is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined by Rule 229.10(f)(1).
 
 
(a)     Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.
 
Pursuant to Rule 13a- 15(b) under the Exchange Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Principal Executive Officer (“PEO”) and Principal Financial Officer (“PFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s PEO and PFO concluded that the material weaknesses disclosed in the Company’s Form 10-K continue to exist and accordingly, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s PEO and PFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.  
 
(b)     Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting.
 
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
