MULTIMEDIA PLATFORMS, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 AND 2014

 

NOTE 1 –ORGANIZATION AND GOING CONCERN

 

Organization

 

Our company's name is Multimedia Platforms, Inc. (formerly known as Sports Media Entertainment Corp.) (the "Company"). The Company was incorporated on April 3, 1996 in the State of Nevada as Jubilee Trading Corp. On March 3, 2002, the Company changed its name to PorFavor Corp. From inception until March 2010, we operated as a broker of structural wood materials. On February 4, 2011, The Company acquired ExploreAnywhere Inc. and changed its name to the same. On December 24, 2013, the Company changed its name to Sports Media Entertainment Corp. in anticipation of a future merger.

 

On January 9, 2015, Multimedia Platforms, Inc. (the "Registrant" and "Legal Acquirer") entered, and on February 2, 2015, closed, a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Merger"), between and among the Company and Multimedia Platforms, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Corporation ("MMP LLC") ("Accounting Acquirer"), all the members of MMP LLC (the "Members"), Harrison Holdings, LLC and Amalfi Coast Capital (collectively, the "Debt Holders"). Pursuant to the Merger, the Registrant was (i) to issue to the Debt Holders a total of 4,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred stock in exchange for all the indebtedness of the Company totaling approximately $688,138 as of December 31, 2014; (ii) to issue 21,320,832 shares of restricted common stock; and (iii) to issue 34,390,199 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock (collectively, the "Merger Shares") to the Members in exchange for 100% of the Members interest in MMP LLC. The Merger Shares were adjusted such that 30,748,969 shares of restricted common stock, 27,212,694 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock and 4,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred stock were ultimately issued. The share issuances represented approximately 97.6% of the total issued and outstanding shares of preferred and common stock of the Registrant post-closing. As a result, the Company (i) became the 100% parent of MMP LLC; (ii) assumed the operations of MMP LLC; (iii) changed its name from Sports Media Entertainment Corp. to Multimedia Platforms, Inc.; and (iv) experienced a change in control.

 

The terms and conditions of the Merger gave rise to reverse merger accounting whereby MMP LLC was deemed the acquirer for accounting purposes. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations of MMP LLC prior to the Merger are reflected in the financial statements and have been recorded at the historical cost basis of MMP LLC. Our financial statements include the assets and liabilities of both the Company and MMP LLC.

 

On January 16, 2015, the Company, with the approval of its board of directors and its majority shareholders by written consent in lieu of a meeting, filed a Certificate of Amendment and Certificate of Change (collectively, the "Amendments") with the Secretary of State of Nevada. As a result of the Amendments, the Company (i) changed its name to Multi Media Platforms, Inc., (ii) authorized a 1:30 (one-for-thirty) reverse-split of its issued and authorized common shares, (iii) authorized 40,000,000 Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.001, and (iv) authorized 4,000,000 Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.001.

 

On February 27, 2015, the Company completed the acquisition of Columbia Funmap, Inc., a New Jersey Corporation ("Funmap"). The purchase price reflects an enterprise value of approximately $3,479,834, including assumed indebtedness, and was funded from the issuance of 2,252,250 shares of restricted common stock and a $10,000 note. The acquisition of Funmap will allow the Company to gain a distribution foothold in 35 metropolitan areas in North America and acquire control of a respected and vital travel tool for GLBT travelers, including the website www.gayosphere.com.

 

On June 17, 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with RND Enterprises, Inc. ("RND"),a New York company, pursuant to which the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of RND from its sole shareholder for a purchase price of $1,000,000, consisting of $200,000 in cash and $800,000 in shares of common stock. Immediately prior to the transaction, the 5% shareholder of RND transferred all his interests in RND to Mr. Moyal for nominal amount. In consideration, the Company agreed to pay to the minority shareholder $30,000 in cash and issue 750,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.40 per share. In aggregate, the Company completed the acquisition transaction for an amount equal to $1,330,000, consisting of $230,000 in cash payable at closing and $1,100,000 in restricted shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $0.40 per share for a total of 2,750,000 shares. The transaction was closed on June 17, 2015. RND is engaged in the business of publishing an LGBT culture magazine known as Next Magazine.

On September 8, 2015, the Company entered into a membership interest purchase agreement, dated as of September 8, 2015, with Mr. Michael A. Turner, the sole member of New Frontiers Media Holdings, LLC, ("Frontiers Media"), to purchase 100% of the membership interests of Frontiers Media. The purchase price reflects an enterprise value of approximately 20,240,000, including the issuance of an aggregate of 14,400,000 shares of the Company's common stock, of which 3,000,000 shares of common stock shall be placed in escrow to be released upon achieving certain milestones, $500,000 in cash, consisting of $250,000 payable at the closing date and the remaining $250,000 in the form of a Promissory Note payable at the earlier of March 31, 2016 or the closing of an underwritten offering of not less than $3,000,000, and assumed assets and liabilities. The transaction was closed on September 8, 2015. Frontiers Media is active in live events, digital, mobile, streaming video, print and outdoor signage, and is best known as the publisher of the gay lifestyle magazine, Frontiers.

 

Going Concern

 

The Company's financial statements are prepared using accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized net revenue of $860,052 and a net operating loss of $6,442,517 and had negative working capital of $561,454 as of September 30, 2015.

 

In view of these conditions, the ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is in doubt and dependent upon achieving a profitable level of operations and on the ability of the Company to obtain necessary financing to fund ongoing operations. Historically, the Company has relied upon internally generated funds and funds from the sale of shares of stock, issuance of promissory notes and loans from its shareholders and private investors to finance its operations and growth. Management is planning to raise necessary additional funds for working capital through loans and/or additional sales of its common stock. However, there is no assurance that the Company will be successful in raising additional capital or that such additional funds will be available on acceptable terms, if at all. Should the Company be unable to raise this amount of capital its operating plans will be limited to the amount of capital that it can access. These financial statements do not give effect to any adjustments which will be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern and therefore be required to realize its assets and discharge its liabilities in other than the normal course of business and at amounts different from those reflected in the accompanying financial statements.

 

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited financial statements of Multimedia platforms, Inc. as of September 30, 2015, and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial reporting and include the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Columbia Funmap, Inc. from the date of acquisition on March 1, 2015, RND Enterprises, Inc. from the date of acquisition on June 17, 2015, New Frontiers Media, LLC from the date of acquisition on September 8, 2015 and Multimedia Platforms, LLC. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2014, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as part of the Company's Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information have been included. The Company did not record an income tax provision during the periods presented due to net taxable losses. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year.

Principles of Consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Columbia Funmap, Inc.,RND Enterprises, Inc. and New Frontiers Media Holdings, LLC. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. As of September 30, 2015, the Company has a 100% interest in Funmap, 100% interest in RND and 100% interest in Frontiers Media. The results of each of these entities are consolidated with the Company's results from and after their respective acquisition dates based on guidance from the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") No. 810, "Consolidation" ("ASC 810").

 

Accounting estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company maintains cash balances at two financial institutions. The Company considers all highly liquid instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts receivable

 

Our collection policy is that payment is due at time of advertising printing. No allowance for doubtful accounts are considered necessary to be established for amounts that may not be recoverable as our collection history is good and write offs have been minimal.

 

Property, plant, and equipment

 

Fixed assets are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Major improvements are capitalized, while repair and maintenance are expensed when incurred. Renewals and betterments that materially extend the life of the assets are capitalized. When assets are retired or otherwise disposed of, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected in income for the period.

 

For federal income tax purposes, depreciation is computed under the modified accelerated cost recovery system. Depreciation for financial statement purposes is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives of the related assets. The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are:

 

Estimated

Useful Lives

Office Equipment

3-5 years

Furniture & equipment

5 - 7 years

 

Long-lived assets

 

The Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets using an assessment of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows related to such assets. In the event that assets are found to be carried at amounts which are in excess of estimated gross future cash flows, the assets will be adjusted for impairment to a level commensurate with fair value determined using a discounted cash flow analysis of the underlying assets.

 

Goodwill

 

We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently when an event occurs or circumstances change that indicates the carrying value may not be recoverable. We test goodwill for impairment by first comparing the book value of net assets to the fair value of the reporting units. If the fair value is determined to be less than the book value or qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that goodwill is impaired, a second step is performed to compute the amount of impairment as the difference between the estimated fair value of goodwill and the carrying value. We estimate the fair value of the reporting units using discounted cash flows. Forecasts of future cash flows are based on our best estimate of future net sales and operating expenses and general economic conditions.

 

 
9
 

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Revenues are recognized when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, the fees are fixed or determinable, the product or service has been delivered and collectability is reasonably assured. We consider the terms of each arrangement to determine the appropriate accounting treatment.

 

Advertising Revenues

 

Advertising revenues are recognized at the magazine cover date, net of agency commissions and discounts. Advertising revenues from websites are recognized as impressions are delivered or as the services are performed. Customer payments received in advance of the performance of advertising services are recorded as deferred revenue in the Balance Sheets.

 

Derivatives - Warrant Liability

 

The Company accounts for the common stock warrants granted and still outstanding as of September 30, 2015 in connection with our 9% Convertible Notes in accordance with the guidance contained in ASC 815-40-15-7F, "Contracts in Entity's Own Equity". Under that provision the Warrants were determined to be ineligible for equity classification due to provisions that may result in an adjustment to their conversion or exercise prices via a down-round feature and must be recorded as a liability. Accordingly, the Company classifies the warrant instrument as a liability at its fair value and adjusts the instrument to fair value at each reporting period. This liability is subject to re-measurement at each balance sheet date until exercised, and any change in fair value is recognized in the Company's statements of operations. The fair value of the warrants issued by the Company in connection with the 9% Convertible Notes has been estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation.

 

The warrant derivative liability balance was $4,503,672 as of September 30, 2015.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized a gain of $303,668 and loss of $4,503,672, respectively in the fair value of warrant related derivatives. Subsequent changes to the fair value of the derivative liabilities will continue to require adjustments to their carrying value that will be recorded as other income (in the event that their value decreases) or as other expense (in the event that their value increases). In general (all other factors being equal), the Company will record income when the market value of the Company's common stock decreases and will record expense when the value of the Company's stock increases. The Company's derivative liability has been measured at fair value at September 30, 2015 using a Monte-Carlo Simulation. Inputs into the model require estimates, including such items as estimated volatility of the Company's stock, estimated probabilities of additional financing, risk-free interest rate, dilution and the estimated life of the financial instruments being fair valued. In addition, since the conversion price contains an anti-dilution adjustment, the probability that the Conversion Price of the warrants would decrease as the share price decreased was also incorporated into the valuation calculation.

 

Derivatives - Bifurcated Conversion Option in Convertible Notes

 

The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, the Company has issued Convertible Notes with features that are either (i) not afforded equity classification, (ii) embody risks not clearly and closely related to host contracts, or (iii) may be net-cash settled by the counterparty. As required by ASC 815, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities, in certain instances, these instruments are required to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value, in our financial statements.

 

 
10
 

 

The convertible notes conversion derivative liability was $6,427,559 as of September 30, 2015.

 

The 9% Convertible Notes issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 are subject to anti-dilution adjustments that allow for the reduction in the Conversion Price, as defined in the agreement, in the event the Company subsequently issues equity securities including Common Stock or any security convertible or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock for a price less than the current conversion price. The Company bifurcated and accounted for the conversion option in accordance with ASC 815 as a derivative liability, since this conversion feature is not considered to be indexed to the Company's own stock. The Company's derivative liability has been measured at fair value at September 30, 2015 using a Monte-Carlo Simulation.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

We adopted ASC Topic 820 for financial instruments measured as fair value on a recurring basis. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, established a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

 

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:

 

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets;

 

Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and

 

Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

 

Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires disclosure of the fair value information, whether or not recognized in the balance sheet, where it is practicable to estimate that value. As of September 30, 2015, the carrying amounts reported in the condensed consolidated balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current assets and liabilities approximate fair value due to relatively short periods to maturity. The fair value of derivative liabilities is estimated using option pricing models that are based on the individual characteristics of our warrants, common stock, the derivative liability on the valuation date as well as assumptions for volatility, remaining expected life, risk-free interest rate and, in some cases, credit spread. The derivative liabilities are the only Level 3 fair value measures.

 

At September 30, 2015, the estimated Level 3 fair values of the liabilities measured on a recurring basis are as follows:

Cost of Revenues

 

Costs of revenues primarily relate to production (e.g., paper, printing and distribution) and editorial costs. Production costs directly related to publications are expensed in the period that revenue is recognized for a publication (e.g., on the cover date of a magazine). Staff costs recognized as Costs of revenues are expensed as incurred.

 

Advertising Costs

 

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising expense to third parties for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $22,570 and $0, respectively. Advertising expense to third parties for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were $23,825 and $1,104, respectively.

 

Shipping and Handling

 

Costs incurred for shipping and handling are reflected in Costs of revenues in the Statements of Operations.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for all compensation related to stock, options or warrants using a fair value based method whereby compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. We use the Black-Scholes pricing model to calculate the fair value of options and warrants issued to both employees and non-employees. In calculating this fair value, there are certain assumptions that we use consisting of the expected life of the option, risk-free interest rate, dividend yield, volatility and forfeiture rate. The use of a different estimate for any one of these components could have a material impact on the amount of calculated compensation expense.

 

We periodically issue restricted common stock as compensation. Pursuant to ASC 505-50-30-6 issuances are valued using the market price of the stock or value of the services rendered on the date of the related agreement, whichever is more readily determinable.

 

 
12
 

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributed to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases and tax credits and loss carry-forwards. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences and carry-forwards are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. A valuation allowance is established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to amounts expected to be realized. The Company reports a liability for unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions, if any, taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense or other expense, respectively.

 

Net Income (Loss) Per Share

 

The computation of basic earnings per share ("EPS") is based on the weighted average number of shares that were outstanding during the period, including shares of common stock that are issuable at the end of the reporting period. The computation of diluted EPS is based on the number of basic weighted-average shares outstanding plus the number of common shares that would be issued assuming the exercise of all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding using the treasury stock method. The computation of diluted net income per share does not assume conversion, exercise or contingent issuance of securities that would have an antidilutive effect on earnings per share. Therefore, when calculating EPS if the Company experienced a loss, there is no inclusion of dilutive securities as their inclusion in the EPS calculation is antidilutive. Furthermore, options and warrants will have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options or warrants (they are in the money).

 

Following is the computation of basic and diluted net loss per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014:

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In September 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805). This ASU eliminates the requirement for retrospective application of measurement period adjustments relating to provisional amounts recorded in a business combination as of the acquisition date. The amendments in this update require an entity to present separately on the face of the income statement or disclose in the notes the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. For public business entities, the amendments will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-05, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40). This ASU provides guidance about whether a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license. If a cloud computing arrangement includes a software license, then the software license element of the arrangement should be accounted for consistent with the acquisition of other software licenses. If a cloud computing arrangement does not include a software license, the arrangement should be accounted for as a service contract. For public business entities, the amendments will be effective for annual periods, including interim periods within those annual periods, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted.

 

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-03, Interest - Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU requires retrospective adoption and will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. We expect the adoption of this guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02, "Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis", which amends the consolidation requirements in ASC 810 and significantly changes the consolidation analysis required under U.S. GAAP relating to whether or not to consolidate certain legal entities. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.

 

In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01, "Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items", which eliminates the concept from U.S. GAAP the concept of an extraordinary item. Under the ASU, an entity will no longer (1) segregate an extraordinary item from the results of ordinary operations; (2) separately present an extraordinary item on its income statement, net of tax, after income from continuing operations; or (3) disclose income taxes and earnings-per-share data applicable to an extraordinary item. Early adoption is permitted. The Company's effective date for adoption is January 1, 2016. The Company does not expect this accounting update to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements in future periods, although that could change.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 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, which is intended to define management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. Specifically, ASU 2014-15 provides a definition of the term substantial doubt and requires an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). It also requires certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management's plans and requires an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated. The new standard will be effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, with early adoption permitted. Management does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a material impact on our financial statements and disclosures.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASU 2014-09), which supersedes most existing revenue recognition guidance under US GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing U.S. GAAP. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods therein, using either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients, or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date of the new revenue recognition standard by one year. Based on the Board's decision, public organizations would apply the new revenue standard to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact of the pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.

 

We review new accounting standards as issued. Although some of these accounting standards issued or effective after the end of our previous fiscal year may be applicable to us, we have not identified any standards that we believe merit further discussion. We believe that none of the new standards will have a significant impact on our financial statements.

Financing of up to $2.5 million

 

From March 2015, the Company has entered into certain securities purchase agreements (the "Agreements") with certain accredited investors (the "Investors"). Pursuant to the Agreements, the Company is conducting a private bridge note offering, up to $2,500,000, consisting of 9% Convertible Promissory Notes (the "9% Convertible Notes") which may be voluntarily converted into shares of the Company's common stock and four-year warrants (the "Company Warrant") to purchase shares of Company's common stock. The securities are sold as units, with each unit consisting of a 9% Convertible Note, in the principal amount of $50,000 and Company Warrant to purchase 166,667 shares of the common stock, pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and Rule 506 of Regulation D ("Regulation D") and/or Regulation S ("Regulation S") as promulgated under the Securities Act.

 

The 9% Convertible Notes are due in 18 months and include interest at the rate of 9% per annum, due semi-annually. The initial interest payment is due in advance in cash or common stock (at the discretion of the Company) at $0.30 per share. Subsequent interest payments are payable at the discretion of the Investors in cash or common stock, with stock valued based on the 10 day VWAP for 10 days before the applicable interest due date. In the event of default, the 9% Convertible Notes interest rate shall increase to the lesser of fifteen percent (15%) or the highest rate permissible by law. The 9% Convertible Notes are convertible into common stock, at the Investor's option, at a price of $0.30 per share or 85% of the price common stock is sold at the next equity or convertible debt financing with gross proceeds to the Company of no less than $1,000,000 (the "Subsequent Financing"). Upon default the conversion price shall be permanently reduced to the lesser of $0.25 per share or the 10 day VWAP then in effect on the date of default.

 

At no time may the 9% Convertible Notes be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would result in the Investors and its affiliates owning an aggregate of shares of our common stock in excess of 9.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, provided such percentage may increase or decrease upon not less than 61 days prior written notice from the Investor.

 

The Company Warrant has a four year term and an exercise price equal to the lesser of: (i) $0.75 or (ii) 85% of the price of the common stock (or common stock equivalents, or conversion price of debt instruments sold in such offering) sold at the Subsequent Financing. The Company Warrant includes the same ownership limitation described above in connection with the Company Note. The Company Warrant includes cashless exercise rights.

 

In the offering through the issuance of 9% Convertible Notes, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company raised $790,000 and $2,365,000, respectively of principal and issued 2,633,337 and 7,633,342, respectively of Company Warrants.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized $35,782 of interest expense and $341,427 of debt discount accretion. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized $108,259 of interest expense and $500,545 of debt discount accretion.

 

Derivative Liability related to the 9% Convertible Notes and Related Detachable Warrants

 

ASC Topic No. 815 - Derivatives and Hedging provides guidance on determining what types of instruments or embedded features in an instrument issued by a reporting entity can be considered indexed to its own stock for the purpose of evaluating the first criteria of the scope exception in the pronouncement on accounting for derivatives. These requirements can affect the accounting for warrants and convertible preferred instruments issued by the Company. As the conversion features within the 9% Convertible Notes, and detachable warrants issued in connection with the 9% Convertible Notes, do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion and exercise prices may be lowered if the Company issues securities at lower prices in the future, the Company concluded that the instruments are not indexed to the Company's stock and are to be treated as derivative liabilities. In determining the fair value of the derivative liabilities, the Company used a Monte Carlo simulation at September 30, 2015.

Financing with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC

 

The financing with Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC is part of the "Financing of up to $2,500,000" described above and is the only related transaction with different terms as described below.

 

On August 21, 2015, the Company issued a Senior Convertible Note (the "Senior Convertible Note") to Lincoln Park Capital Fund, LLC ("Lincoln Park") in the amount of $300,000. The Senior Convertible Note was issued pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the same date. The Senior Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum (or 18% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and the principal and interest is due and payable in full on December 31, 2016 (the "Maturity Date"). Interest may be paid in the Company's common stock if the Company meets certain conditions that would allow the issuance of the Company's common stock without any trading restrictions. The Senior Convertible Note included a $30,000 original issuance discount ("OID"). As a result, the net amount received in connection with the sale of the Senior Convertible Note was $270,000. The transaction was closed on August 24, 2015.

 

The Company has the right to prepay the Senior Convertible Note, pursuant to the terms thereof, at any time, provided it pays a prepayment amount of 120% of the then outstanding balance, accrued interest and interest payable from the date of prepayment to the Maturity Date. The Senior Convertible Note provides for customary events of default such as failing to timely make payments under the Senior Convertible Note when due and the occurrence of certain fundamental defaults, as described in the Senior Convertible Note.

 

 
18
 

 

The principal amount of the Senior Convertible Note and all accrued interest is convertible at the option of Lincoln Park into shares of our common stock at any time. The conversion price of the Senior Convertible Note is $0.30, as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, stock combinations or other similar transactions as provided in the Note.

 

At no time may the Senior Convertible Note be converted into shares of our common stock if such conversion would result in Lincoln Park and its affiliates owning an aggregate of shares of our common stock in excess of 4.99% of the then outstanding shares of our common stock, provided such percentage may increase to 9.99% upon not less than 61 days prior written notice.

 

As additional consideration for the loan, the Company granted Lincoln Park a six-year warrant to purchase 1,000,000 shares of our common stock (the "Warrant") at an exercise price of $0.50 per share. The Warrant includes the same ownership limitation described above in connection with the Convertible Note. The Warrant includes cashless exercise rights.

 

The Senior Convertible Note and the Warrant were issued by the Company under the exemption from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, as amended and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, as the securities were issued to accredited investors, without a view to distribution, and were not issued through any general solicitation or advertisement.

 

The Company first allocated Senior Convertible Note principal between the Senior Convertible Note, OID and the warrants based upon their relative fair values. The estimated fair value of the warrants was calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: market price of common stock - $2.00 per share; estimated volatility – 150%; 5-year risk free interest rate – 1.44%; expected dividend rate - 0% and expected life - 6 years. This resulted in allocating $237,014 to the warrants and $32,986 to the Senior Convertible Note and $30,000 to the OID. Next, the intrinsic value of the BCF was computed as the difference between the fair value of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the Senior Convertible Note and the total price to convert based on the effective conversion price. The calculated intrinsic value was $1,767,014. As this amount resulted in a total debt discount that exceeds the Senior Convertible Note proceeds, the amount recorded for the BCF was limited to principal amount of the Senior Convertible Note. The resulting $300,000 discount is being accreted over the 16 month term of the Senior Convertible Note.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recognized $1,646 of interest expense and $24,096 of accretion related to the debt discount.

(3)       Issued pursuant to prior financings with fixed conversion price, no down-round protection and included in equity.

 

(4)       The Company issued 3.0 million common stock purchase warrants, or 1.5 million each to Patrick Kolenik and Carry W Sucoff, pursuant to a consulting agreement entered into by each individual on July 29, 2015. The consulting agreements are identical and have a term of 24 months with compensation solely in the form of 1.5 million warrants each. Both warrants contain identical terms including Piggyback registration rights, cashless exercise, 5 year life, $0.30 exercise price and shares of warrant stock cannot be sold prior to February 1, 2016 unless any of the shares owned or controlled by Robert Blair or TBG Holdings, or any of their affiliates, are sold, or are included in a registration statement for resale during that period. The warrants were evaluated for equity or liability accounting. Based on their terms, they are treated as equity. The fair value of the warrants was $0.274 as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and the following assumptions: market price of common stock - $.30 per share; estimated volatility - 152%; risk free interest rate - 1.62%; expected dividend rate - 0% and expected life - 5 years. The resulting total compensation expense of $822,000 was recorded as an increase to additional paid-in capital and deferred compensation and will be recognized ratably over the 24 month consulting term, or $102,750 per quarter unless exercised within 24 months at which time the pro rata compensation expense will be recognized.

 

No warrants were exercised, expired, canceled or repriced during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

NOTE 6 – MERGER

 

On January 9, 2015, Multimedia Platforms, Inc. (formerly Sports Media Entertainment Corp.) (the "Company", "Registrant" and "Legal Acquirer") entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the "Merger"), between and among the Company and Multimedia Platforms, LLC, a Florida Limited Liability Corporation ("Accounting Acquirer"), all the members of MMP LLC (the "Members"), Harrison Holdings, LLC and Amalfi Coast Capital (collectively, the "Debt Holders"). Pursuant to the Merger, the Registrant was (i) to issue to the Debt Holders a total of 4,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred stock in exchange for all the indebtedness of the Company totaling approximately $688,138 as of December 31, 2014; issue (ii) 21,320,832 shares of restricted common stock and (iii) 34,390,199 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock (collectively, the "Merger Shares") to the Members in exchange for 100% of the Members interest in MMP LLC. The Merger Shares were adjusted such that 30,748,969 shares of restricted common stock, 27,212,694 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock and 4,000,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred stock were ultimately issued. The share issuances represent approximately 97.6% of the total issued and outstanding shares of preferred and common stock of the Registrant post-closing. As a result, the Company (i) became the 100% parent of MMP LLC; (ii) assumed the operations of MMP LLC; (iii) changed its name from Sports Media Entertainment Corp. to Multimedia Platforms, Inc.; and (iv) experienced a change in control.

 

The terms and conditions of the Merger give rise to reverse merger accounting whereby MMP LLC is deemed the acquirer for accounting purposes. Consequently, the assets and liabilities and the historical operations of MMP LLC prior to the Merger are reflected in the financial statements and have been recorded at the historical cost basis of MMP LLC. Our financial statements include the assets and liabilities of both the Company and MMP LLC. The Merger was accounted for under recapitalization accounting whereby the equity of MMP LLC is presented as the equity of the combined enterprise and the capital account of MMP LLC is adjusted to reflect the par value of the outstanding stock of the Legal Acquirer after giving effect to the number of shares issued in the Merger (27,212,694 Series A Preferred, 4,000,000 Series B Preferred and 30,748,969 restricted common shares). Shares retained by the Legal Acquirer (1,502,477 common shares) are reflected as an issuance as of the reverse merger date (February 2, 2015) for the historical amount of the net liabilities of the Company.

 

NOTE 7 – BUSINESS COMBINATIONS

 

The Company acquired three businesses during the nine months ended September 30, 2015. Business combinations are accounted for using the acquisition method, and the results of each of those acquired businesses are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements beginning on the respective acquisition date. Acquisition method accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Estimates of fair value included in the condensed consolidated financial statements, in conformity with ASC No. 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), represent the Company's best estimates. The fair value of consideration transferred in business combinations is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, with the remaining unallocated amount recorded as goodwill. The following estimates and assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of the Company. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide assurance that the estimates, assumptions, and values reflected in the valuations will be realized, and actual results could vary materially. The allocations of the acquisition price for recent acquisitions have been prepared on a preliminary basis, and changes to those allocations may occur as a result of final working capital adjustments and tax return filings. Acquired goodwill represents the premium the Company paid over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired. The Company paid these premiums for a number of reasons, including growing the Company's merchant and customer base, acquiring assembled workforces, expanding its presence in national markets and expanding and advancing its product offerings. The goodwill from these business combinations is generally not deductible for tax purposes.

 

Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of the assets and liabilities will be recorded as adjustments to those assets and liabilities and residual amounts will be allocated to goodwill. In accordance with ASC 805 "Business Combinations", if additional information is obtained about these assets and liabilities within the measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition), including finalization of asset appraisals, the Company will refine its estimates of fair value to allocate the purchase price more accurately.

Columbia Funmap, Inc. Acquisition

 

The Company accounted for the purchase using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Estimates of fair value included in the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with ASC No. 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" ("ASC 820"), represent the Company's best estimates using industry data and trends and by reference to relevant market rates and transactions. The following estimates and assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of the Company. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide assurance that the estimates, assumptions, and values reflected in the valuations will be realized, and actual results could vary materially.

 

Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of the assets and liabilities will be recorded as adjustments to those assets and liabilities and residual amounts will be allocated to goodwill. In accordance with ASC 805, if additional information is obtained about these assets and liabilities within the measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition), the Company will refine its estimates of fair value to allocate the purchase price more accurately.

 

On February 27, 2015, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement with, Columbia Funmap, Inc., a New Jersey Corporation, and Alan H. Beck, the President of Funmap for the purchase of 100% of common stock issued and outstanding of Funmap. The closing of the Securities Purchase Agreement occurred on February 27, 2015. The acquisition of Funmap will allow the Company to gain a distribution foothold in 35 metropolitan areas in North America and acquire control of a respected and vital travel tool for GLBT travelers, including the website www.gayosphere.com.

 

The table below summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of the Funmap assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. The net enterprise value of Funmap was valued at $3,479,834 which represented both the restricted common stock and notes issued by the Company for its 100% interest. Upon closing, the final purchase price consisted of the assumption of $93,968 of liabilities, issuance of 2,160,000 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Beck, repayment of related party debt of $87,888 by issuing 92,250 shares of restricted common stock to Mr. Beck, and note to Mr. Beck totaling $10,000. Additionally, the Company entered into a consulting agreement with Mr. Beck under which Mr. Beck will act as a national sales manager. The agreement has a term of 36 months, provides compensation of $5,000 per month plus 15% of cash collected for print sales sold directly by Consultant; plus a 3% override on print sales of FunMaps™; plus 20% of collected online sales made by Consultant, personally.

RND Enterprises Inc. Asset Purchase

 

On June 17, 2015, the Company entered into an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") with RND Enterprises, Inc. ("RND"), a New York company, pursuant to which the Company purchased substantially all of the assets of RND from its sole shareholder Mr. David Moyal, for a purchase price of $1,000,000, consisting of $200,000 in cash and $800,000 in shares of common stock. Immediately prior to the transaction, the 5% shareholder of RND transferred all his interests in RND to Mr. Moyal for nominal amount. In consideration, the Company agreed to pay to the minority shareholder $30,000 in cash and issue 750,000 shares of common stock valued at $0.40 per share. In aggregate, the Company completed the acquisition transaction for an amount equal to $1,330,000, consisting of $230,000 in cash payable at closing and $1,100,000 in the restricted shares of the Company's common stock, valued at $0.40 per share for a total of 2,750,000 shares. The transaction was closed on June 17, 2015. RND is engaged in the business of publishing an LGBT culture magazine known as Next Magazine.

 

The Company accounted for the purchase using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Estimates of fair value included in the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with ASC 820, represent the Company's best estimates using industry data and trends and by reference to relevant market rates and transactions.

The table below summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of the RND assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. The net enterprise value of the net assets purchased was valued at $1,330,000 which represented both the cash paid and restricted common stock issued by the Company.

New Frontiers Media Holdings, LLCAcquisition

 

On September 8, 2015, Multimedia Platforms, Inc. entered into that certain membership interest purchase agreement, dated as of September 8, 2015, with Mr. Michael A. Turner, the sole member of New Frontiers Media Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, to purchase 100% of the membership interests of Frontiers Media (such agreement, together with all schedules, exhibits and attachments thereto, the "Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company paid the purchase price equal to $500,000 in cash, consisting of $250,000 payable at the closing date and the remaining $250,000 in the form of a promissory note accruing interest of 4.5% payable at the earlier of March 31, 2016 or the closing of an underwritten offering of not less than $3,000,000. In addition, the Mr. Turner shall also receive an aggregate of 14,400,000 shares of the Company's common stock, of which 3,000,000 shares of common stock shall be placed in escrow to be released upon achieving certain milestones. The Shares were issued pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

 
24
 

 

Additionally, On September 8, 2015, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company appointed Mr. Turner as a member of the Board and President of Media Ventures Division of the Company. Mr. Turner will also remain as the President and Chairman of Frontiers Media. Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Turner is entitled to an annual salary of $150,000 until the Company completes the closing of any underwritten offering of $3,000,000 or more, in which case, Mr. Turner's annual salary will be increased to $250,000. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, Mr. Turner is eligible for an annual bonus to be determined by the Board and to participate in any other incentive plans (cash or equity) and employee benefits subject to the applicable terms of such plans or arrangements.

 

The Employment Agreement provides for severance payments in the event the Company does not renew the Employment Agreement or the Company terminates Mr. Turner's employment without "Cause," Mr. Turner terminates his employment for "Good Reason" (or as a result of death or Permanent Disability) (each capitalized term as defined in the Employment Agreement). Mr. Turner's severance payment consists of a cash amount equal to the amount of base salary Mr. Turner would be entitled to based on the current year's base salary for one year following his termination. If Mr. Turner's employment is terminated due to non-renewal of the Employment Agreement by Mr. Turner, voluntary resignation by Mr. Turner without Good Reason or for Cause by the Company, then no severance is due to Mr. Turner under the Employment Agreement. The Employment Agreement contains restrictive covenant provisions applicable to Mr. Turner during his employment with the Company and for a specified period following his termination of employment in certain circumstances.

 

The Company accounted for the purchase using the acquisition method of accounting which requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition date. Estimates of fair value included in the consolidated financial statements, in conformity with ASC 820, represent the Company's best estimates using industry data and trends and by reference to relevant market rates and transactions. The following estimates and assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies beyond the control of the Company. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide assurance that the estimates, assumptions, and values reflected in the valuations will be realized, and actual results could vary materially.

 

Any changes to the initial estimates of the fair value of the assets and liabilities will be recorded as adjustments to those assets and liabilities and residual amounts will be allocated to goodwill. In accordance with ASC 805, if additional information is obtained about these assets and liabilities within the measurement period (not to exceed one year from the date of acquisition), the Company will refine its estimates of fair value to allocate the purchase price more accurately.

 

The table below summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of the Frontiers Media assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. The net enterprise value of Frontiers Media was valued at $4,730,000 which represented both the restricted common stock and notes issued by the Company for its 100% interest. Due to the lack of liquidity and volume in our common stock and significant share issuance to Mr. Turner, the market price of our common stock is not an accurate gauge of its value. Thus, management has assessed the fair value based on recent issuances of $2,635,000 of convertible notes with a $0.30 conversion price.

In accordance with FASB ASC 350, "Intangibles – Goodwill and Other," we perform goodwill impairment testing at least annually, unless indicators of impairment exist in interim periods. The impairment test for goodwill uses a two-step approach. Step one compares the estimated fair value of a reporting unit with goodwill to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, step two must be performed. Step two compares the carrying value of the reporting unit to the fair value of all of the assets and liabilities of the reporting unit (including any unrecognized intangibles) as if the reporting unit was acquired in a business combination. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit's goodwill exceeds the implied fair value of its goodwill, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to the excess.

 

For purposes of reviewing impairment and the recoverability of goodwill, we must make various assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors in determining the fair values of the reporting unit. We perform an annual impairment review at the end of each fiscal year.

 

On March 31, 2015, we performed a goodwill impairment test and estimated the fair value of our reporting unit based on the income approach (also known as the discounted cash flow ("DCF") method, which utilizes the present value of cash flows to estimate fair value). The future cash flows for our Funmap reporting unit was projected based on our estimates of future revenues, operating income and other factors (such as working capital and capital expenditures). The discount rates used in our DCF method were based on a weighted-average cost of capital ("WACC") determined from relevant market comparisons, adjusted upward for specific reporting unit risks (primarily the uncertainty of achieving projected operating cash flows). A terminal value growth rate was applied to the final year of the projected period and reflected our estimate of stable, perpetual growth. We then calculated a present value of the cash flows for the reporting unit to arrive at an estimate of fair value under the income approach and then used the market approach to corroborate this value. We determined that the carry value of goodwill exceeded the fair value under the income and market approach. As a result we impaired $2,729,834 as of September 30, 2015 based on the income approach.

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

 

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements including statements regarding our expectations, beliefs, intentions or future strategies that are signified by the words "expects," "anticipates," "intends," "believes" or similar language. These forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and other factors. All forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report are based on information available to us on the date hereof and speak only as of the date hereof. We undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. The factors discussed elsewhere in this quarterly report are among those factors that in some cases have affected our results and could cause the actual results to differ materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

 

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report.

 

Overview

 

 Through the Merger with Multimedia Platforms, LLC, acquisition of Columbia Funmap, Inc., asset purchase of RND Enterprises, Inc.'s Next Magazine and recent purchase of New Frontiers Media Holdings, LLC, the Company has transformed its operations to become an industry-leading multimedia technology and publishing company that integrates print media with social media, and related online platforms, to deliver information and advertising to niche markets. The Company teams utilize its proven business model to deliver niche publications and online platforms that target one of the most sought-after demographics in the world, the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender population ("LGBT"). The Company has recently expanded its concept to include video and mobile applications reaching deep into the international LGBT community. The Company's top brands include The Agenda, a Florida-based weekly LGBT newspaper covering world, national and local news and events, Guy Magazine, a weekly entertainment and lifestyle full-color publication covering the burgeoning South Florida LGBT marketplace Next Magazine, a weekly comprehensive lifestyle resource for all gay New Yorkers since 1993 and California-based Frontiers Media active in live events, digital, mobile, streaming video, print and outdoor signage, and is best known as the publisher of the gay lifestyle magazine Frontiers. The Company's plan to interweave print, web and mobile delivery of the highest quality news and entertainment information via a variety of platforms crosses all cultural, generational and preferred modality barriers to reach an unprecedented audience.

 

Products and Services

 

The Company has developed an advanced social media platform, The Global Agenda Network, where advertisers' social media platforms, like Facebook, Twitter, etc., are connected to an App and web portal where social media response pages respond in real time – allowing for the consumer and business to have a real-time relationship with information and content 24/7. By harnessing the power of individuals, their businesses & their relationships by merging print & social media through technology, The Company has created a diverse channel for business owners from all over the world to interact and sell their products and services to an ever-growing family of interconnected loyal readers and viewers.

 

Business Strategy

 

The Company is initially targeting the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender population) as a multimedia company. The Company will position its trusted technology as a leader in the LGBT community to deliver advertisers' messages and cutting-edge content worldwide to the company's readers and viewers through multiple delivery systems, which include but are not limited to websites, mobile applications, entertainment magazines and newspapers. Growth will be achieved through strategic acquisitions and joint ventures in targeted markets. The Company has identified several targeted acquisitions that will add new markets, advertisers and revenues. The willingness for existing publications to sell or JV is based in part on the rise of online only publications and also on the print media's general failure to successfully transition to a print/online hybrid revenue model. The Company has done both and created a flexible online social media sharing platform that can easily be adapted to other publications.

 

 
29
 

 

Our Industry

 

The Global lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) population is estimated to be more than 400 million, with a purchasing power estimated at $3 trillion. LGBT buying power is diverse in ethnicity and socioeconomic status, and are an incredibly loyal constituency. Based on a diverse range of LGBT population estimates and more than a hundred online population samples conducted by expert research partners at Harris Interactive over the twelve years, the 2013 analysis estimates approximately 6 to 7% of the adult U.S. population as willing to self-identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual and/or transgender, or between 15-16 million adults, a figure that has risen slowly year after year. The overall United States LGBT community is projected to have a purchasing power of $850 Billon.

 

Competition

 

In our market niche, we are unique in being the only publicly traded media conglomerate. Other LBGT media companies are not considered to be competition but rather acquisition targets.

 

Results of Operations

 

Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2015 Compared With the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014.

 

Revenue

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, net revenue increased $294,009 or 204.9% to $437,526 compared to $143,517 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, net revenue increased $415,167 or 93.9% to $860,052 compared to $444,885 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Revenue increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the same period of the prior year due to expanded circulation, increased sales efforts and the inclusion of FunMap, Next Magazine and Frontiers Media revenues from the date of each acquisition.

 

Cost of Sales and Gross Profit

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2015, cost of sales increased $218,467 to $297,112 compared to $78,465 during the three months ended September 30, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, cost of sales increased $357,450 to $559,496 compared to $202,046 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Gross profit during the three months ended September 30, 2015 was $140,414 with a gross margin of 32.1% compared to $64,872 and 45.2% gross margin during the three months ended September 30, 2014. Gross profit during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $300,556 with a gross margin of 34.9% compared to $242,839 and 54.6% gross margin during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Gross margins decreased due to increased circulation and the expansion into the central Florida market. The expansion is currently outpacing the sales gains but this trend is expected to reverse in future quarters.

General and administrative ("G&A") costs include costs related to personnel, professional fees, travel and entertainment, public company costs, insurance and other office related costs and exclude stock compensation costs. G&A costs increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 due to increases in professional fees, outside services, personnel and travel as a result of the our acquisitions and increased efforts to position the Company for future growth.

 

Sales and marketing ("S&M") costs include costs to promote and sell our products and exclude stock compensation costs. S&M costs increased during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014primarily due to the build out of our website, increased public relations efforts and higher delivery and distribution costs resulting from increased volume.

 

Stock compensation increased as a result of the issuance of common stock and warrants in exchange for services during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, pursuant to current GAAP guidelines, the Company recorded $3,479,834 of goodwill related to the Acquisition of Funmap. The Company performed goodwill impairment testing related to Funmap resulting in the impairment of $2,729,834 of goodwill resulting in a goodwill balance of $750,000 as of September 30, 2015.

 

Other Income (Expense)

 

Other expense was $578,952 and $9,201,721 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively, compared to $0 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. All the elements of other expense are related to our convertible promissory notes and detachable warrants, including $38,372 and $110,849 of interest expense, $365,523 and $524,641 of accretion due to the debt discount and $175,057 and $8,566,231 related to the fair value of the notes conversion derivative liability and warrants derivative liability during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015, respectively.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the three and nine month period ended September 30, 2015, because of our operating losses, we did not generate positive operating cash flows. As of September 30, 2015 we had an accumulated deficit of $16,014,354, cash on hand of $270,073 and negative working capital of $561,454. 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 build our revenues by growing our business and leveraging the synergies between our recent acquisitions. (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.

 

 
31
 

 

Cash Requirements

 

We had cash available of $270,073 as of September 30, 2015. Based on our revenues, cash on hand and current monthly burn rate, around $200,000, 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.

 

Sources and Uses of Cash

 

The Company is conducting a private bridge note offering, up to $2,500,000, consisting of 9% Convertible Promissory Notes which may be voluntarily converted into shares of the Company's common stock and four-year warrants to purchase shares of Company's common stock. The securities are sold as units, with each unit consisting of a 9% Convertible Note, in the principal amount of $50,000 and Company Warrant to purchase 166,667 shares of the common stock. From March 2015 through September 30, 2015, the Company has entered into certain securities purchase agreements with certain accredited investors pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and received proceeds of $2,365,000.

 

On August 21, 2015, the Company issued a Senior Convertible Note to Lincoln Park in the amount of $300,000. The Senior Convertible Note was issued pursuant to the terms of a Securities Purchase Agreement dated as of the same date. The Senior Convertible Note bears interest at the rate of 5% per annum (or 18% upon the occurrence of an event of default) and the principal and interest is due and payable in full on December 31, 2016.

 

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.

 

To enhance our long term objectives for growth and profitability we have recently entered into a placement agent agreement with Maxim Group, LLC to raise gross proceeds of approximately $5 million through a best-efforts registered offering our common stock. We expect to complete this offering in early 2016.

 

Cash used in operating activities was $1,893,200 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $21,405 provided during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Cash used in investing activities was $473,474 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $0 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. $450,000 of the cash used in investing activities was paid in cash for our acquisitions.

 

Cash provided by financing activities was $2,629,718 during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to $0 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. 

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that have a significant impact on the results that we report in our consolidated financial statements. Some of our accounting policies require us to make difficult and subjective judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates regarding matters that are inherently uncertain. Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in the preparation of the financial statements. Certain of these significant accounting policies require us to make critical accounting estimates, as defined below.

 

A critical accounting estimate is defined as one that is both material to the presentation of our financial statements and requires management to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments that could have a material effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Specifically, critical accounting estimates have the following attributes:

 

 

·

we are required to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time of the estimate; and

 

·

different estimates we could reasonably have used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur, would have a material effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

 

Estimates and assumptions about future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions believed to be applicable and reasonable under the circumstances. These estimates may change as new events occur, as additional information is obtained and as our operating environment changes. These changes have historically been minor and have been included in the consolidated financial statements as soon as they became known. Based on a critical assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, management believes that our financial statements are fairly stated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and present a meaningful presentation of our financial condition and results of operations.

 

 
32
 

 

Our most critical accounting estimates include:

 

 

·

the assessment of recoverability of goodwill which impacts operating expenses when we record impairments; and

 

·

the recognition and measurement of current and deferred income taxes, which impact our provision for taxes.

 

Below, we discuss these policies further, as well as the estimates and judgments involved.

 

Goodwill

 

Goodwill is no longer amortized, but evaluated for impairment annually, or immediately if conditions indicate that impairment could exist. Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of current financial assets, property and equipment, and separately reportable intangible assets. The tangible assets, intangible assets, and goodwill acquired are then assigned to reporting units. Goodwill is then tested for impairment at least annually for each reporting unit. Step one of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value. If the fair value exceeds the carrying value, no further testing is required. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value, a step two test must be performed. Step two includes estimating the fair value of all tangible and intangible assets for the reporting unit. The fair value of goodwill is then estimated by subtracting the fair value of tangible and intangible assets from the fair value of the reporting unit total assets determined in step one. The goodwill impairment is the excess of the recorded goodwill over the estimated fair value of goodwill.

 

We acknowledge the uncertainty surrounding the key assumptions that drive the estimated fair value. Any material negative change in the fundamental outlook of our business, our industry or the capital market environment could cause the reporting unit to fail step one. Accordingly, we will be monitoring events and circumstances each quarter (prior to the annual testing date) to determine whether an additional goodwill impairment test should be performed.

 

Income Taxes

 

Provisions for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current period and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled.

 

When accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, first, the tax position is evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. The Company's utilization of U.S. Federal net operating losses will be limited in accordance to Section 381 rules. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no material off-balance sheet transactions.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act")) as of June 30, 2015. Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information that the Company is required to disclose in such reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, the Company's internal controls and procedures were not effective, due to the material weaknesses in internal controls over financial reporting described below.

 

Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

 

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projection of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 

Based on the evaluation and the identification of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2015, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.

 

A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. In connection with management's assessment of our internal control over financial reporting, we identified the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015:

 

 

·

A material weakness in the Company's internal control over financial reporting exists in that there is limited segregation of duties amongst the Company's employees with respect to the Company's preparation and review of the Company's financial statements. This material weakness is a result of the Company's limited number of employees. This material weakness may affect management's ability to effectively review and analyze elements of the financial statement closing process and prepare financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

 

Restatement of Previously Issued Financial Statements

 

During the preparation of our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015 financial statements, the Company discovered an error in the application of accounting guidance related to our convertible notes and detachable warrants that were issued starting in March 2015. Specifically, the Company measured and recorded the beneficial conversion feature and detachable warrants pursuant to ASC 470-20, Debt with Conversion and Other Options which limits the amount of discount recognized to the face amount of the convertible notes and classifies the warrants and beneficial conversion feature discounts to equity. However, during the preparation of our fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015 financial statements, it came to our attention that as a result of the down-round feature contained in our convertible notes and warrants, equity treatment was improper and that fair value accounting of the derivative embedded in the convertible notes and fair value of the warrants needed to be measured at each reporting period with changes in value recorded to the statement of operations. The reclassification of the originally recorded debt discount from equity to liabilities and changes in the value of the warrants and convertible notes conversion derivative liability resulted in changes to the Company's financial statements, which warranted restatement of the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015.

 

 
34
 

 

As a result of the restatements, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, with the assistance of other members of management and outside consultants, re-evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's internal controls over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015 in accordance with the assessment and testing procedures described above. Based on this re-evaluation, and because the impact of the errors on the Company's quarterly financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015 was sufficiently material to warrant restatement of the Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, we have determined that the following additional material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting existed as of September 30, 2015:

 

 

·

We did not maintain effective controls to provide reasonable assurance that our convertible notes conversion derivative liability and warrant liability was being accounted for correctly during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015. This material weakness resulted in errors in our financial statements and related disclosures, including inaccuracies in previously unreported fair value of convertible notes derivative liability and warrant liability, net gain/loss and total shareholders' equity.

 

Because of the material weaknesses described above, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of September 30, 2015, based on the Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO (2013).

 

Remediation Efforts

 

We plan to make necessary changes and improvements to the overall design of our control environment to address the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described above. In particular, we expect to hire additional staff to assist with complex accounting issues such as convertible securities. Additionally, we will perform an analysis of all automated and manual procedures to strengthen the effectiveness of our segregation of duties.

 

Management believes through the implementation various control environment improvements, we will significantly improve our internal controls, the completeness and accuracy of underlying accounting data and the timeliness with which we are able to close our books. Management is committed to continuing efforts aimed at fully achieving an operationally effective control environment and timely filing of regulatory required financial information. The remediation efforts noted above are subject to our internal control assessment, testing, and evaluation processes. While these efforts continue, we will rely on additional substantive procedures and other measures as needed to assist us with meeting the objectives otherwise fulfilled by an effective control environment.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Other than those described above, management has determined that there were no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

 

All funds received from the sale of our shares were used for working capital purposes. All shares bear a legend restricting their disposition. The foregoing securities may not be offered or sold in the United States unless registered under the Act, or pursuant to an exemption from registration.

 

The shares were issued in reliance upon an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Each investor took his securities for investment purposes without a view to distribution and had access to information concerning us and our business prospects, as required by the Securities Act. In addition, there was no general solicitation or advertising for the purchase of our shares. Our securities were sold only to accredited and sophisticated investors, as defined in the Securities Act with whom we had a direct personal preexisting relationship, and after a thorough discussion. Finally, our stock transfer agent has been instructed not to transfer any of such shares, unless such shares are registered for resale or there is an exemption with respect to their transfer.

 

Each purchaser was provided with access to our filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, including the following: 

  • Our annual report to stockholders for the most recent fiscal year, and, if requested by the purchaser in writing, a copy of our most recent Form 10-K under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act").
  • The information contained in an annual report on Form 10-K under the Exchange Act.
  • The information contained in any reports or documents required to be filed by the Company under sections 13(a), 14(a), 14(c), and 15(d) of the Exchange Act since the distribution or filing of the reports specified above.

Item 5. Other Information.

 

On June 29, 2015, the Company entered into a placement agent engagement letter (the "Engagement Letter") with Maxim Group, LLC ("Maxim") pursuant to which Maxim agreed to act as the Company's exclusive placement agent and use its commercially reasonable best efforts to arrange for the sale of up to an aggregate of $10 million worth of securities in an initial public offering (the "Offering"). The precise number of securities to be offered by the Company and the offering price per security is the subject of continuing negotiations between the Company and Maxim and will depend upon the capitalization of the Company (at the time of the offering) being acceptable to Maxim, general marked and economic conditions, a review and finalization of audited financial statements and formal projections of the Company as well as other factors Maxim deems relevant in its discretion.

 

The Engagement Letter contains customary representations, warranties and covenants of the Company and Maxim. The Company has agreed to pay Maxim a cash fee up to $120,000 in the event of a successful Offering that raised $10 million. In the event the Offering is not consummated, Maxim shall be entitled to $50,000, including the $25,000 advance to Maxim paid in July 2015 in connections with the Engagement Letter. Additionally, upon closing, the Company has agreed to pay Maxim share purchase warrants equal to 8.0% of the total number of securities being sold in the offering. The warrants will be non-exercisable for six (6) months after the closing date of the offering and expire three years after such date. The warrants will be exercisable as a price equal to 110% of the offering price in connection with the offering.

 

As of the date of this report, the Company issued 500,000 shares to Maxim as placement agent and paid Maxim a non-refundable fee of $25,000 pursuant to the Engagement Letter.

 

The foregoing description of the Engagement Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Engagement Letter, which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.14 and incorporated herein by reference.
