UBIQUITY, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2015

(UNAUDITED)

 

NOTE 1 - COMPANY OVERVIEW

 

Ubiquity, Inc. (“Ubiquity” or the “Company”) is focused on providing a platform which enables anyone to connect to internet-based content on any type of device. Ubiquity’s unique technology and robust patent portfolio has led to the development of the Company’s signature product, the Sprocket. The Sprocket can be easily downloaded onto any type of device (such as mobile phone, tablet, laptop, etc.) and then easily customized to provide the user with easy access to all web-based content, social media outlets, video-based content, private networks, social networks, personalized files, intelligent search, and virtually all other media. In short, the Sprocket provides easy and expedited access to content in the manner and choices selected by the user. The Sprocket also provides detailed analytics and data on the end-users, delivering tremendous value as a marketing tool to the content providers and advertisers.

 

The Company believes it can license the Sprocket platform to third-party companies, such as telecom companies and large enterprises, enabling these customers to develop personalized applications either for their customer base or within their enterprise. It is envisioned that the end-user will pay a nominal monthly fee for the Sprocket, that nominal fee would be multiplied by the total number of users, resulting in a potentially substantial license fee to the Company in the form of recurring revenue.

 

The Company has developed several unique products that function very effectively on the Sprocket platform, such as GiftSender (a mobile wallet); Monkeybars (a social mobility distribution platform); and, its own video search engine. The Sprocket platform is also a powerful incubator. Third-party developers can use its common standard to develop effective apps that address any range of users’ needs and applications. The Company also has proprietary video intelligence software which it proposes to sell to government customers.

 

Organization of Company

 

On March 5, 2013, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ubiquity Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Acquisition Sub”), and Ubiquity Broadcasting Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Ubiquity-DE”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub merged with and into Ubiquity-DE in a statutory reverse triangular merger (the “Merger”), with Ubiquity-DE surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. At the closing of the Merger on September 20, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), we issued Ubiquity-DE shareholders one share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share for each share of Ubiquity-DE’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Merger, we ceased our prior operations and became a multimedia company focused on the intersection of cloud-based cross platform applications synchronized across all screens for enhancing the digital lifestyle.

 

The transaction was regarded as a reverse merger whereby Ubiquity-DE was considered to be the accounting acquirer as its management retained control of the Company after the Share Exchange.

 

On December 31, 2014, effective March 31, 2015, the Company entered into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Sponsor Me, Inc. (“Sponsor Me”), a Nevada corporation, and a related party, which resulted in the acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding equity securities of Sponsor Me. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Sponsor Me from the Sponsor Me shareholders for an aggregate purchase price of 3,878,467 shares, or 3.59% of the Company’s common stock. In addition, in connection with the transaction, the Company forgave notes accounts/receivables due from Sponsor Me and SC Business, Inc., and members or SME management and SME consultants, who are also members of Ubiquity management, forgave approximately $3.2M in accrued salary and related payroll taxes. The Company recorded the acquisition of the remaining non-controlling interest as an equity transaction in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810.

 

 

Sponsor Me is a new kind of digital publishing company that combines expert editorial with ecommerce for distribution on mobile and social platforms. Sponsor Me, Inc. is considered a related party. Brenden Garrison is the CEO of Sponsor Me and is also the CFO of the Company. Christopher Carmichael is a consultant of Sponsor Me and is also the CEO of the Company, and Connie Jordan is a consultant and a director of Sponsor Me, and is also Senior Executive Vice president of the Company. In addition, Sponsor Me has a similar shareholder group including the Company’s CEO and EVP. Thus, the Company accounted for the acquisition of Sponsor Me as an entity under common control using the carry over basis related to Sponsor Me’s assets and liabilities.

 

As of March 31, 2015, the carrying value of Sponsor Me’s assets and liabilities were as follows:

 

		March 31, 2015
Current Assets		$	4,188
Non-Current Assets			8,267
Current Liabilities			(108,434	)
Current Liabilities - Related Parties			(10,000	)
Net Current Liabilities		$	(105,979	)

 

At March 31, 2015, the following entry was recorded due to the forgiveness of accrued wages and taxes due to officers and to remove the Non-controlling interest:

 

		March 31, 2015
Accrued Wages to Officers		$	(2,926,456	)
Accrued Taxes on Wages to Officers			(313,136	)
Removal of Non-Controlling Interest			5,139,218
Reduction of Additional Paid-in Capital		$	1,899,626

 

In addition, the operations of Sponsor Me are included within these financial statements and thus a pro-forma for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 is not required.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has negative working capital and operating losses, and has not yet produced continuing revenues from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern. The Company is currently in various negotiations for the licensing of their Sprocket product line, however, no formal terms have been agreed upon. To date revenues from licensing agreements have not been sufficient to fund operations. Thus, until the Company can generate sufficient cash flows to fund operations, the Company is dependent on raising additional capital through debt and/or equity transactions. In addition, the Company may have to renegotiate current convertible debt obligations, reduce certain overhead costs through the deferral of salaries and other means, and settle liabilities through negotiation. Currently, the Company does not have any commitments or assurances for additional capital, other than disclosed above, nor can the Company provide assurance that such financing will be available to it on favorable terms, or at all. If, after utilizing the existing sources of capital available to the Company, further capital needs are identified and the Company is not successful in obtaining the financing, it may be forced to curtail its existing or planned future operations. Subsequent to quarter end, the Company raised $0 in convertible notes payable, and $1,966,505 from the sale of common stock.

 

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to attain a satisfactory level of profitability and obtain suitable and adequate financing. There can be no assurance that management’s plan will be successful.

 

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Interim Consolidated Financial Statements

 

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and disclosures necessary for a fair presentation of these interim consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consist of normal recurring adjustments. These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2014. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 are not indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries Ubiquity Broadcasting Corp. and Sponsor Me, Inc. (“SME”) for all periods presented, and its majority owned subsidiaries Sprocket HK Limited and Sprocket Wearables, Inc. (see below). Prior to March 31, 2015, the Company did not have an equity ownership in SME. However, since SME was primarily owned by officers of the Company, the Company had the power to make decisions that were most significant to SME and was expected to absorb the losses of SME. The Company determined that as of January 1, 2014, SME should be consolidated in with the Company’s operations. This determination was based upon the fact that the Company was the primary funding source for SME’s operations. Prior to 2014, SME funded operations through the sale of SME common stock. Effective March 31, 2015, the Company acquired SME; see above for additional information. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Sprocket HK Limited

 

On March 3, 2015, Sprocket HK Limited was incorporated in Hong Kong. Ubiquity, Inc. holds a 51% non-dilutable stake in Sprocket HK Limited.

 

On March 13, 2015, Ubiquity, Inc. entered into a Non-Exclusive Commercial Technology License Agreement (the “License Agreement”) with Sprocket HK Limited (“Sprocket”), a Hong Kong limited liability company. Pursuant to the terms of the License Agreement, the Company agreed to grant to Sprocket a domestic and international non-exclusive license to make, use, copy and distribute products and services based upon the technology owned by the Company. Sprocket will also negotiate licenses with third parties, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the License Agreement. The minimum cash flow expected to be generated from the Licensing Agreement to Ubiquity, Inc. is $100,000 and carries a revenue share agreement where Sprocket will pay Ubiquity, Inc 60% of all net revenue proceeds of all licensed and sub-licensed technology either directly or indirectly. The cash flow generated from this agreement can be for general expenses and working capital in Ubiquity, Inc. There were no operations at this entity for the period ended September 30, 2015.

 

Sprocket Wearables, Inc.

 

On September 18, 2015, the Company entered into a Mobile Applications Development and Services Agreement (“Agreement”) with Appetizer Mobile LLC (“Appetizer”). Under the terms of the Agreement Appetizer will provide all necessary development services related to mobile applications for the use of the Company’s signature product, the “Sprocket”, in wearable tech devices. Specifically, the first project will be for the integration of the Sprocket into the Apple Watch, which is expected to be completed in early 2016 Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company formed a new corporation Sprocket Wearables, Inc. on September 25, 2015 (“Sprocket Wearable’s”). Appetizer will initially own twenty five percent (25%) of the issued shares of Sprocket Wearables and will head the wearable division. As of September 30, 2015, 2016 the Company owns 65%, Appetizer Mobile owns 25% and other investors are expected to own 10% through the investment of $1M in cash. As of September 30, 2015, investments of $300,000 has been received. As of April 18, 2016, $1.1M investment has been received.

 

On September 25, 2015, Ubiquity, Inc entered into an exclusive license agreement with Sprocket Wearable’s Inc. The agreement calls for a 15% royalty of the gross sales of all licensed goods and services and an initial license non-refundable entry fee of $1,500,000 (ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS), which will be used at the Corporate level for general working capital purposes.

 

There were no operations for this entity, other than the investments received and agreements entered into, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

 

 

Variable Interest Entity

 

Generally accepted accounting principles require that if an entity is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”), the entity should consolidate the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the VIE in its consolidated financial statements. Ubiquity, Inc. considers itself to be the primary beneficiary of SME, and accordingly, has consolidated these entities beginning in January 2014, with the equity interests of the unaffiliated investors in SME presented as Non-controlling Interests in the accompanying interim consolidated financial statements.

 

Under ASC 810-10 the Primary Beneficiary is the party that has both of the following:

 

1. The power to make decisions regarding the activities that most significantly impact the success of the VIE, and

 

2. The obligation to absorb losses or rights to receive benefits of the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.

 

When multiple parties make decisions over different activities of the entity, only the party with power to direct the activities that most significantly impacts the entity’s economic performance will have satisfied the first condition. The Company, through its management and significant stockholders, has the power to direct the most significant activities of SME.

 

Ubiquity satisfies the second condition because as the primary source of capital beginning in 2014, Ubiquity, Inc. is expected to absorb the losses that will be significant to the VIE. On March 31, 2015, SME was acquired by Ubiquity and thus the VIE was eliminated.

 

Non-Controlling Interests

 

Non-controlling interest disclosed within the consolidated statements of operations represents the minority ownership’s 100% share of net losses of SME incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2014, the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the three months ended March 31, 2015. On March 31, 2015, SME was acquired by Ubiquity and thus the non-controlling interest was eliminated on that date.

 

Ubiquity, Inc. owns 51% of Sprocket HK Limited which is consolidated into the accompanying financial statements. However there were no operations at this entity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

 

Ubiquity, Inc. owns 65% of Sprocket Wearables, Inc. which is consolidated into the accompanying financial statements. However there were no operations at this entity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company considers all highly liquid instruments with an initial maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

 

Accounts receivable are reported at realizable value, net of allowances for doubtful accounts, which is estimated and recorded in the period the related revenue is recorded. The Company has a standardized approach to estimate and review the collectability of its receivables based on a number of factors, including the period they have been outstanding. Historical collection and payer reimbursement experience is an integral part of the estimation process related to allowances for doubtful accounts. In addition, the Company regularly assesses the state of its billing operations in order to identify issues, which may impact the collectability of these receivables or reserve estimates. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $70,000 at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014.

 

 

Property and Equipment

 

The capital assets are being depreciated over their estimated useful lives of, three to fifteen years using the straight-line method of depreciation for book purposes. The cost of leasehold improvements is amortized over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets.

 

Maintenance and repairs are charged to operations when incurred. Betterments and renewals are capitalized. When equipment and leasehold improvements are sold or otherwise disposed of, the asset account and related accumulated depreciation account are relieved, and any gain or loss is included in operations.

 

Software Development Costs

 

Research and development costs are charged to expense as incurred. However, the costs incurred for the development of computer software that will be sold, leased, or otherwise marketed are capitalized when technological feasibility has been established. These capitalized costs are subject to an ongoing assessment of recoverability based on anticipated future revenues and changes in hardware and software technologies. Amortization of capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers and revenues are generated. Amortization is computed as the ratio of current gross revenues for a product to the total of current and anticipated future gross revenues for the product. Amortization of capitalized software development costs for purchased technology that is technologically feasible at the time of purchase begins upon purchase and for internally developed costs, when the product is available for release to customers. Amortization is computed using a straight-line method over the estimated useful life of five (5) years.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred development costs in which were expensed of $180,383, $418,477, $74,142 and $258,345, respectively.

 

Intangible Assets

 

Intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method over periods ranging from five to fifteen years. The Company periodically evaluates the recoverability of intangible assets and takes into account events or circumstances that warrant revised estimates of useful lives or that indicate impairment exists. The majority of Ubiquity’s intangible assets are subject to amortization. See Note 5 for additional information.

 

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate carrying amounts of long-lived assets may not be recoverable. When such events or changes in circumstances are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of long-lived assets by determining whether the carrying value of such assets will be recovered through undiscounted expected future cash flows. If the total of the future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of those assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or the fair value less costs to sell. See Note 5 for additional information.

 

Derivative Financial Instruments

 

The Company does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that may affect the fair values of our financial instruments. However, under the provisions ASC 815 – “Derivatives and Hedging” certain financial instruments that have characteristics of a derivative, as defined by ASC 815, such as embedded conversion features on our Convertible Notes, that are potentially settled in the Company’s own common stock, are classified as liabilities when either (a) the holder possesses rights to net-cash settlement or (b) physical or net-share settlement is not within the Company’s control. In such instances, net-cash settlement is assumed for financial accounting and reporting purposes, even when the terms of the underlying contracts do not provide for net-cash settlement. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded, and continuously carried, at fair value each reporting period.

 

 

The value of the embedded conversion feature is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. All future changes in the fair value of the embedded conversion feature will be recognized currently in earnings until the note is converted or redeemed. Determining the fair value of derivative financial instruments involves judgment and the use of certain relevant assumptions including, but not limited to, interest rate risk, credit risk, volatility and other factors. The use of different assumptions could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the guidance of ASC 820: Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. Fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of our Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our Company’s assumptions about the factors market participants would use in valuing the asset or liability. The guidance establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

 

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

 

As of September 30, 2015, the Company’s derivative liabilities are considered a level 3 financial instrument, see Note 7 for discussion of valuation. As of December 31, 2014, we did not have any level 1, 2, or 3 assets or liabilities.

 

The carrying amounts reflected in the balance sheets for cash, prepaid expenses, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and notes payable approximate the respective fair values due to the short maturities of these items.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) delivery has occurred or services have been rendered; (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable; and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. Revenue from packaged product sales to distributors and resellers is usually recorded when related products are shipped. However, when the revenue recognition criteria required for distributor and reseller arrangements are not met, revenue is recognized as payments are received. Revenues from licensing the rights to technology and/or patents are typically recorded when access to the technology and/or patents is provided.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue includes the direct costs to distribute the product and the direct costs to provide online services, production, consulting, product support, licensing opportunities, training and certification of sub-contractors.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for employee stock-based compensation in accordance with the guidance of ASC Topic 718: “Compensation - Stock Compensation”, which requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the consolidated financial statements based on their fair values. The Company generally estimates the grant date fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Black-Scholes option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price on the date of grant, the expected stock price volatility over the expected term of the award, the risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the award and expected dividends. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the service period of the award.

 

 

The Company follows ASC Topic 505-50, formerly EITF 96-18, “Accounting for Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods and Services,” for stock options and warrants issued to consultants and other non-employees. In accordance with ASC Topic 505-50, these stock options and warrants issued as compensation for services provided to the Company are accounted for based upon the fair value of the services provided or the estimated fair market value of the option or warrant, whichever can be more clearly determined. The fair value of the equity instrument is charged directly to compensation expense and additional paid-in capital over the period during which services are rendered.

 

Common stock issued in connection with services whereby the performance is complete and for asset acquisitions are typically valued using the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the agreement.

 

In accordance with the guidance, an asset acquired in exchange for issuance of fully vested, non-forfeitable equity instruments should not be presented or classified as an offset to equity on the grantor’s balance sheet once the equity instrument is granted for accounting purposes. Accordingly, the Company has accounted for certain issuances as prepaid assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

 

Income Taxes

 

Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.

 

The Company’s income tax returns are based on calculations and assumptions that are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. In addition, the calculation of the Company’s tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax regulations. The Company recognizes liabilities for uncertain tax positions based on a two-step process. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates that it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount that is more than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. While the Company believes it has appropriate support for the positions taken on its tax returns, the Company regularly assesses the potential outcomes of examinations by tax authorities in determining the adequacy of its provision for income taxes. The Company continually assesses the likelihood and amount of potential adjustments and adjusts the income tax provision, income taxes payable and deferred taxes in the period in which the facts that give rise to a revision become known. To date there have been no uncertain tax positions.

 

Concentration of Credit Risks

 

The Company maintains its cash and cash equivalents in bank deposit accounts, which, at times, may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts; however, amounts in excess of the federally insured limit may be at risk if the bank experiences financial difficulties.

 

Use of Estimates

 

Preparing consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Examples include estimates of loss contingencies and product life cycles, valuation of the Company’s common stock and common stock options, derivative liabilities, and assumptions such as the elements comprising a software arrangement, including the distinction between upgrades/enhancements and new products; when the Company reaches technological feasibility for its products; the potential outcome of the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements or tax returns; and determining when investment impairments are other-than-temporary. Actual results and outcomes may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

 

 

Earnings per Common and Common Equivalent Share

 

The computation of basic earnings per common share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted earnings per common share is based on the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year plus common stock equivalents which would arise from the exercise of warrants and stock options outstanding using the treasury stock method and the average market price per share during the year. Convertible notes payable, options, warrants and convertible preferred stock which are common stock equivalents are not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, since their effect is anti-dilutive.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Guidance

 

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASU 2014-9”). ASU 2014-9 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue. Under the guidance, revenue is recognized when a company transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. Effective July 9, 2015 due to an extension by the FASB, the standard is effective for public entities with annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt the guidance. We are currently evaluating implementation methods and the effect that implementation of this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements upon adoption.

 

In August 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“ASU 2014-15”). ASU 2014-15 requires management of all entities to evaluate whether there are conditions and events that raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the consolidated financial statements are issued (or available to be issued when applicable). The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within that fiscal year. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements as we currently disclose that there is substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern.

NOTE 5 - INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

The Company’s capitalized costs in relation to developing and acquiring intangible assets, consisted of the following as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

 

		September 30, 2015				December 31, 2014
Patents and trademarks		$	1,413,606			$	1,337,798
Media projects			776,728				650,735

Accumulated amortization			(4,336,352	)			(3,179,267
Intangible assets, net		$	5,207,002			$	7,085,070

 

Amortization expense for all intangible assets was $354,213, $427,281, $1,157,086 and $1,131,845 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Sprocket Asset Group consists of the Invicta Immersive Property, Think Mobile Giftsender, Think Media, Digital Magazine, and a portion of the websites that were previously reported.

 

 

Management reviews intangible assets with finite lives for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the intangible assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of the intangible assets is measured by comparing the carrying amount of the assets to the future estimated undiscounted cash flows that the asset is expected to generate. If the estimated undiscounted future cash flows are less than the carrying amount, these intangible assets with finite lives are considered to be impaired. The amount of the impairment is measured as the difference between the carrying amount of these assets and their estimated fair value. The fair value of the asset is estimated based on discounted future cash flows using a discount rate commensurate with the risk. Our estimate of future cash flows requires assumptions and judgment, including forecasting future sales and expenses and estimating useful lives of the assets. The use of different assumptions, estimates or judgments, such as the estimated future cash flows or the discount rate used to discount such cash flows, could significantly increase or decrease the estimated fair value of the intangible assets with finite lives. Intangible assets primarily consist of the Sprocket Asset Group, internally developed Intellectual Property, acquired Intellectual Property, and a robust portfolio of patents , which are referred to as the Sprocket Asset Group.

 

At June 30, 2015, due to delays in finalizing contracts with potential customers in which the Company had been negotiating with for periods ranging from six months to a year, the Company determined impairment might be present. These delays extended the initial period by 6 months in which the Company projected cash flows to commence from these contracts. In addition, the expected life of the Sprocket Asset Group continued to remain the same, thus, decreasing the total expected undiscounted cash flows related to the assets.

 

Thus, at June 30, 2015, the Company performed a recoverability test by comparing the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the Sprocket Asset Group to their carrying amounts. Future undiscounted cash flows related to the Sprocket Asset Group were estimated using the most recent contracts in which were being actively negotiated for the Sprocket through the Company and its affiliates at the time of the analysis, including a 10% growth rate. Projections for Sprocket Wearable’s are based upon management’s projections of future contracts. The significant terms within the negotiated contracts were formulated by management, the board of directors, advisory group, and various consultants in which spent a significant amount of time researching the industry.

 

The future cash flow projections included estimated revenue projections which were based upon an expected per user charge times the number of users. Expected per user chargers were based upon amounts being negotiated within the contracts. The total expected users were determined based upon the estimated needs of the potential customers. Significant costs included within the undiscounted cash flows related to costs to carry and support the contract needs. In addition, due to the volatility of the operations, the Company has updated its models on multiple occasions. As of June 30, 2015 the Company’s cash flow model did not indicate an impairment was necessary. However, as noted above, based on the delay of entering into a definitive contract, the Company recorded an impairment was necessary to acknowledge the delay. Accordingly, although the Company deems the recoverability probable, an impairment of 20% of the net asset balance was recorded as of June 30, 2015.

 

At September 30, 2015, the Company expects future estimated undiscounted cash flows to cover the carrying value of the Sprocket Asset Group. This determination was based upon the fact that the Company entered into a contact with a customer in which the expected undiscounted cash flows will be sufficient to cover the carrying value of the assets. Cash flows from this contract are expected to begin being realized in 2016.

 

The estimated amortization expense over the next five fiscal years approximates:

 

2015 (remaining three months)			400,000
2016			1,600,000
2017			1,400,000
2018			900,000
2019			200,000

 

NOTE 6 - ACCRUED EXPENSES

 

Accrued expenses consisted of the following as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014:

 

		September 30, 2015				December 31, 2014
Salaries and wages - Ubiquity, Inc.		$	566,063			$	559,704
Payroll and other taxes			1,099,215				1,145,125
Accrued consulting fee - BOD Member			375,000				150,000
Accrued interest			289,249				-
Accrued rent			91,000				52,558
Other			67,424				1,967
Total current accrued expenses			2,487,951				1,909,354
Salaries and wages, long-term - Ubiquity, Inc.			-				1,000,000
Salaries and wages, long-term - Sponsor Me, Inc.			-				3,120,120
Total accrued expenses		$	2,487,951			$	6,029,474

 

 

The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Senior Executive Vice President are paid as consultants and thus the required payroll taxes are not withheld and remitted to the appropriate taxing authorities. The Company issues these individuals 1099s which represent amounts paid to them. In connection with this, the Company accrues estimated taxes and penalties due to taxing authorities in which would be potentially due if the taxing authorities were to require the Company’s to pay if the individuals were deemed employees. The Company accrues the taxes at the time in which the amounts payable to the individuals is recorded. See Note 8 for discussion related to compensation either paid and/or accrued for related parties. As of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, total amounts accrued related to potential payroll taxes and penalties were $844,453 and $890,623, respectively.

 

In February 2015, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer forgave accrued salary and bonuses of $1 million dollars in exchange for options to purchase 2,561,856 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $0.485 per share. The options vest immediately and have a five year life. The Company valued the options at $1,159,506 using the Black Scholes Option Pricing model; see Note 9 for variables used. In addition, accrued payroll taxes and penalties related to the forgiven salary and bonus of $118,000 were re-classed as the payroll amounts were not paid. The difference between the salary and taxes forgiven and the fair market value of the options of $41,006 was recorded as additional compensation expense.

 

NOTE 7 - NOTES PAYABLE

 

Convertible Notes Payable - Variable Conversion Price

 

At various times to fund operations, the Company issues convertible notes payable in which the conversion features are variable. In addition, some of these convertible notes payable have issuance discounts and other fees withheld. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company issued convertible notes payable with principal amounts aggregating $2,380,350 in which proceeds of $2,168,475 were received. The convertible notes payable incur interest rates ranging from 1% to 12% per annum with due dates ranging from August 2015 to April 2017. The convertible notes payable are convertible into common stock of the Company at discounts ranging from 55-65% of either the lowest closing prices in the 20 days before the conversion date, the lowest trading price in the 25 days before the conversion date, or the volume-weighted average price of the three days before the conversion date. Certain of these notes are convertible immediately upon issuance, while others do not become convertible for a period of 180 days after issuance. Derivative accounting applies upon the conversion feature being available to the holder, as it is variable and does not have a floor as to the number of common shares in which could be converted. The Company has recorded, or will record, a derivative liability in connection with the convertible notes payable on the date they become convertible. The combination of the original issue discount (“OID”), fees paid and allocation to the derivative liabilities resulted in discounts to the convertible notes payable. The discounts are being amortized over the term of the convertible notes payable. In addition, the Company issued 450,000 shares of common stock in connection with some of the convertible notes. The Company valued the common stock at $125,625 based upon the closing market price on the date of the transaction. The value of the common stock was recorded as a discount to the notes payable. On April 15, 2015, the default provision of all convertible notes payable were triggered due to the Company’s delinquency in filing their annual report. Thus, as of April 15, 2015, all convertible notes payable became convertible; interest rates were increased at rates ranging from 12% to 24% per annum; and the principal balances were increased at rates ranging from 110% to 150% totaling $716,605 in additional principal. The increase in principal was recorded as interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

 

Including the convertible notes payable discussed in the preceding paragraph, as of September 30, 2015, the Company has $2,921,835 in principal of convertible notes payable with remaining discounts of $806,117. These notes also contain various default provisions including increases to the interest rate ranging from 0% to 16% and increases to the principal balance ranging from 110% to 150% which were triggered on April 15, 2015 as discussed above.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, $697,733, $0, $1,586,629 and $0 of the discount was amortized to interest expense, respectively. As of September 30, 2015, the unamortized debt discount was $806,117. The Company is amortizing using the straight line method due to the short term of the notes.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, principal of $50,000 was converted into 1,552,701 shares of common stock. In connection with this conversion, the Company determined the fair market value of common stock to be $353,883 based upon the closing market price on the date of conversion. In connection with the conversion, the Company relieved derivative liabilities of $231,292  and recorded a gain on extinguishment of $8,441 which represented the difference between the fair market value of the common stock and the convertible notes and derivative liabilities extinguished.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, principal of $125,120 of convertible notes were repaid. In connection with these repayments, derivative liabilities of $119,226 were reclassed to equity as the convertible note in which the derivative liabilities corresponded to were repaid and thus the conversion feature was eliminated.

 

At various times during the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company issued a total of 925,000 shares of common stock to various holders of the convertible notes payable. The issuances related to various penalties, settlements, etc related to the convertible notes payable being in default. The Company valued the shares at $229,623 based upon the closing market price of the Company's common stock on the date of the transaction. The value of the common stock was immediately expensed as interest expense. 

 

 

Derivative Liabilities

 

In connection with convertible notes payable, the Company records derivative liabilities for the conversion feature. The derivative liabilities are valued on the date the convertible note payable become convertible and revalued at each reporting period. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company recorded initial derivative liabilities of $3,267,843 based upon the following Black-Scholes option pricing model average assumptions: an exercise price of $0.0853 to $1.00 our stock price on the date of grant ($0.15 to $0.57), expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 132% to 200%, risk free interest rates ranging from 0.23% to 0.56% and expected terms ranging from one (1) to two (2) years. Upon initial valuation, the derivative liability exceeded the face value of certain of the convertible note payables by approximately $1,363,000, which was recorded as a day one loss on derivative liability.

 

On September 30, 2015, the derivative liabilities were revalued at $3,732,919 resulting in a loss of $815,595 related to the change in fair market value of the derivative liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The derivative liabilities were revalued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following average assumptions: an exercise price of $0.04 to $0.15, our stock price on the date of valuation, expected dividend yield of 0%, expected volatility of 143% to 188%, risk-free interest rates ranging from 0.23% to 0.58%, and an expected terms ranging from 0.10 to 1.83 years.

 

Other Notes Payable Transactions

 

On February 11, 2014, the Company entered into an agreement with a law firm in which $27,249 in accounts payable was converted to a convertible promissory note in the same amount. Under the terms of the agreement, the note was immediately convertible at $0.001 per share, incurred interest at 10% and due upon demand. The Company didn't account for the transaction until the nine months ended September 30, 2015 when a conversion was requested and the oversight was identified. The Company determined that a beneficial conversion feature of $27,249 should have been recorded and immediately expensed as interest expense at the time of the original agreement. The amount was recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as the amount is immaterial to the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, assignees of the holder converted $16,000 of the balance into 16,000,000 shares of common stock. As of September 30, 2015, $11,249 was due on the note and is included within convertible notes payable.

 

In July 2015 the company entered into a note payable in the amount of $20,000 with a related party that is due on demand.

 

Future Potential Dilution

 

Most of the Company’s convertible notes payable contain adjustable conversion terms with significant discounts to market. As of September 30, 2015, the Company’s convertible notes payable are convertible into an aggregate of approximately 68 million shares of common stock. In addition, due to the variable conversion prices on some of the Company’s convertible notes, the number of common shares issuable is dependent upon the traded price of the Company’s common stock.

On August 15, 2013, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Brenden Garrison, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, to perform the services and duties that are normally and customarily associated with this position as well as other associated duties as our Board reasonably determine (the “Garrison Agreement”). The Garrison Agreement called for an initial base salary of $150,000 payable in equal semi-monthly installments in accordance with the Company’s usual practice. The Garrison Agreement also calls for an annual bonus in the form of stock options to purchase 75,000 shares at an exercise price of $4.00. On January 1, 2014, Brenden Garrison’s employment contract was amended to reflect an annual base salary of $225,000 with bonus compensation of 150,000 options annually.

 

On January 1, 2012, as amended on August 1, 2013, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Bryan Harpole (the “Harpole Agreement”) to be employed as the Company’s general studio manager on an at will basis. Mr. Harpole will receive an annual salary of $150,000 and is eligible for certain bonuses including an annual bonus in the form of stock options to purchase 75,000 shares at an exercise price of $4.00. Harpole receives a one percent (1%) gross override for all revenue relating to studio revenues.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Carmichael Agreement, Jordan Agreement, Garrison Agreement, and Harpole Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of such agreements filed as Exhibits 10.1 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4 to the 10-K, respectively, are incorporated by reference herein.

 

Other Contingencies

 

At the time of death of the former President of Ubiquity, Gregory Crotty had accrued $93,743 in salary, 22,857 Common Shares of Ubiquity Broadcasting Corporation, and had 200,929 options to purchase Ubiquity Broadcasting Corporation Common Shares at $5.25 per share. He also had 42,857 shares of common stock issued in his name. Ubiquity will have to issue these shares and pay the balance of his accrued salary to the proper beneficiary once established. As of September 30, 2015, an established beneficiary has yet to be named. All 200,929 options expired as of December 31, 2011 and are not included in total options outstanding.

 

During the first quarter of 2013, the Employment Development Department of the State of California (the “EDD”) notified the Company that it proposed to categorize our independent contractors as employees and proposed an assessment of additional employment taxes in the amount of $305,885, which represented a contingent liability. The Company filed a formal petition as of April 22, 2013. The Company has recorded a provision for the assessment as an accrued expense even though the Company believes the independent contractors do not meet the definition of an employee. In a letter from the EDD dated July 21, 2015, the EDD issued a final assessment of employment taxes in the amount of $36,128 for the period from October 1, 2009 to September 30, 2012. As resolution on all periods has not been attained, the Company has included approximately $844,453 and $890,363 of estimated taxes, penalties and interest in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.

 

 

Litigation

 

Ubiquity v. Castro:

 

On or about July 2014 Ubiquity filed a demand for arbitration with JAMS against Lawrence E. Castro (“Castro”) for breach of the settlement agreement dated August 19, 2013, which was executed to settle and resolve a dispute between the Company and Castro regarding a prior “Work for Hire” relationship between the parties (the “Castro Settlement”). Under the Castro Settlement, the Company paid Castro monetary compensation in exchange for providing certain agreements and assurances designed to protect certain intellectual property, business plans, road maps, vendors, investor relationships, employee relationships, contractors and work in progress. The arbitration complaint filed by the Company alleges that Castro breached the Castro Settlement and is seeking damages in the amount of $176,763, plus interest, representing the stated damages in the settlement agreement of what the Company has paid to Castro. The Company is also seeking injunctive relief, actual losses incurred by Castro’s breach, and damages for unjust enrichment, including expenses and other sundry damages. The arbitration is currently in the discovery phase, which will enable both Castro and the Company to obtain documents and further evidence supporting their respective cases, as the disclosure of witnesses. In February 2016, Castro’s attorneys filed a motion with the arbitrator to withdraw, which motion was granted. Castro presently is in pro per. The arbitrator has ordered Castro until April 29, 2016, if he intends to retain counsel. On June 1, 2016, the arbitrator will set an arbitration date for the hearing on this matter.

 

Kay Strategies v. Ubiquity:

 

Kay Strategies filed a complaint against the Company and its officers and directors for various violations of federal and state securities law, in the District Court for the Southern District of California. The Company and its officers and directors thereafter moved to dismiss the complaint under FRCP 12(b)(5) and 12(b)(6). Kay Strategies chose instead to amend voluntarily. Kay Strategies then filed a First Amended Complaint, alleging the same federal and state securities violations. The amended pleading essentially alleges that Kay Strategies purchased restricted Ubiquity stock from a third party. Kay Strategies’ personal representatives allegedly advised it that they were orally informed by Ubiquity’s outside securities’ attorney that it would lift the stock restrictions by a certain date, which did not occur, allegedly causing Kay Strategies damages. Kay Strategies contends that it would not have purchased the Ubiquity stock from the third party had it not had this assurance. The Company denies that it ever made such a guarantee or represented same to Kay Strategies’ representative. Ubiquity also contends that if outside counsel made any statements [which the Company denies happening], counsel was never authorized to do so. Prior to the stock purchase, no authorized director, officer or agent of the Company met with or discussed with anyone at Kay Strategies its prospective purchase of the Company’s stock from any third party. Ubiquity recently filed another FRCP 12(b)(6) motion challenging the efficacy of these allegations. The district court thereafter dismissed Kay Strategies’ First Amended Complaint without prejudice.

 

Typenex v. Ubiquity:

 

On August 14, 2015, the Company was served with a demand for arbitration by Typenex Co-Investment, LLC (“Typenex”). Typenex was the holder of one of the many convertible notes issued by the Company. Typenex was claiming, among other things, that the Company is in breach of the convertible note issued in its favor (the “Note”), and that it is entitled to an injunction against the Company enjoining it from, among other things, up to and until the Note is paid in full (i) issuing any other convertible debt with a variable interest rate; (ii) paying any cash to the holders of any other convertible notes issued by the Company; and, (iii) issuing any additional shares of stock to the holders of any other variable interest rate convertible notes issued by the Company. The arbitrator issued an interim injunction for the equitable relief described above. Arbitration finally took place on March 22, 2016, and the arbitrator tentatively awarded Typenex damages, attorney fees and costs of $767,960.42, less $150,000.00, for a total award of $617,960.42. In addition, the arbitrator awarded Typenex costs. Finally, the arbitrator kept in place the prior interim restraining orders. Though Chris Carmichael also was named a defendant, he was dismissed by Typenex prior to the arbitration hearing. On April 19, 2016, Typenex filed a petition in the Third Judicial District Court in and for Salt Lake County, Utah to confirm the award. Ubiquity intends to respond and object to the petition. While the Company admittedly owes the principal on the Note, the Company believes the arbitrator erred in awarding any damages or interest thereon. Error is further ascribed to the arbitrator’s continuance of injunctive relief.

 

Avant Garde v. Ubiquity:

 

Avant Garde initiated litigation against the Company, for the recovery of the Company’s lease of its office space in Irvine, California, claiming the Company’s failed to timely pay its September 2015 rent, allegedly one day late, under the applicable lease. When Ubiquity failed inadvertantly to timely answer the unlawful detainer suit, the Company was defaulted. Instead of moving to set aside the default, the Company entered into two forbearance agreements, both of which lapsed. The Company then moved the Orange County Superior Court for an order restoring the lease, which motion was denied. The court thereafter stayed the action pending the outcome of an appeal challenging the denial filed by Ubiquity. The stay is still in effect. The appeal should be heard in about eight months. On March 14, 2016 Ubiquity paid an additional $150,000 for an increased security deposit until the appeal is finalized.

 

Keener Litigation

 

On March 10, 2016 Vista Capital Investments, LLC (“Vista”) filed suit against the Company for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, declaratory relief, promissory estoppel, fraud, negligent misrepresentation and civil conspiracy in the Superior Court, Central Division, For the County Of San Diego, California. The genesis of the suit is Vista’s allegations that the Company breached two Convertible Notes, one for $100,000 and the other for $50,000, by failing to timely repay these notes, when Vista declared the notes all due and payable after the Company allegedly failed to make timely filings with the SEC. The Company denies any wrongdoing, and intends to challenge the complaint by demurrer. Vista also seeks fraud damages against Chris Carmichael, the Company’s CEO, for allegedly representing that the Company would remain current in its SEC filings if the Loans were made.

 

Keener Litigation

 

On March 15, 2016, Justin Keener (“Keener”) sued the Company for breach of contract, arising out of a $300,000.00 convertible note representing capital infusions by Keener into the Company. Keener alleges the Company has failed to timely repay the note, after Keener demanded payment of the entire principal and interest under the note due to the Company’s default of certain other provisions of the note, which, as alleged, accelerated the note repayments.

 

 

Firstfire Global Opportunities Litigation

 

On March 28, 2016, Firstfire Global Opportunities (“Firstfire”) filed suit against the Company for breach of a securities purchase agreement and a $140,250.00 senior convertible note, attorneys’ fees and unjust enrichment in the Supreme Court of New York, New York County. Firstfire contends that the Company breached the note by failing to timely repay “any amount towards the aggregate sum that Firstfire is owed,” the total of which is $304.889.88.

 

Brett and Mark Tomberlin Lawsuit

 

On April 8^, 2016 a lawsuit was filed in the Orange County Superior Court by Brett and Mark Tomberlin, seeking damages for Ubiquity’s failure to timely repay under eight promissory notes totaling $184,450. They also claim that they were misled into believing that the notes would be paid timely. The Company denies the allegations. At present, and without admitting liability, the Company and Mr. Tomberlin are in settlement negotiations. In the meantime, the Company intends to demurrer to the complaint.

 

R Squared Partners, LLC Litigation

 

On April 20, 2016, R Squared Partners, LLC (“R Squared”) filed suit in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York against Ubiquity and its CEO, Chris Carmichael, for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant, unjust enrichment, specific performance, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, and civil conspiracy. The complaint essentially alleges that the Company entered into a purchase and note transaction with R Squared whereby R Squared loaned the Company $140,250.00, which was due on September 20, 2015. R Squared alleges that, except for a $20,000.00 payment, the Company has not timely repaid the principal or interest on the note. R Squared also avers that the Company defaulted under other terms of the purchase agreement, including the Company’s failure to obtain certain insurance policies, reduction of the book – value of certain of its assets, impairing its ability to pay its debts, and failure to honor R Squared’s third party participation rights by entering into third party financing agreements, though R Squared alleges that it has lost “not less than” $500,000.00. R Squared also seeks sundry injunctive relief, restraining the Company and Carmichael from entering into future third party agreements and stock issuances. Finally, R Squared seeks undefined fraud damages against the Company and its CEO arising out of the Company’s and Carmichael alleged representations, as manifested in the purchase agreement.

 

North Matter:

 

On October 10, 2014, the Company was served with a complaint filed on September 13, 2014 by a former consultant against the Company, in the Superior Court of Arizona, Maricopa County. The complaint alleges that the consultant was to receive warrants to purchase 1,142,857 shares of common stock as a commencement fees for services in which commenced on December 15, 2006. The Company believes the claim is without merit; in addition, the statute of limitations has passed. The Company does not believe that a loss is probable and no accrual for loss contingency has been made.

 

Financing

 

On November 10, 2014, the Company engaged Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. to perform such financial advisory and investment banking services as the Company reasonably and specifically requests and as Deutsche Bank agrees. Deutsche Bank is engaged on a non-exclusive basis to provide advisory and investment banking services with respect to the exploration of strategic alternatives that may lead to a possible transaction, through sale, merger, joint venture or otherwise, whether effected in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, in which 40% or more of the voting power of the Company or all or a substantial portion of its business or assets are combined with or transferred to any company that is an acquisition target or another person or entity.

 

Conversant, Inc. Acquisition and Subsequent Termination

 

On January 27, 2015, Ubiquity entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ubiquity Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Ubiquity (“Merger Sub”), and Coversant, Inc. (“Coversant”), providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Coversant (the “Merger”), with Coversant surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Ubiquity. Coversant’s SoapBox platform is an Internet of Things Service Bus (IoT-SB) that securely and efficiently connects things (devices, sensors, actuators) to humans, applications and databases for analysis and controls of devices. SoapBox is designed to federate disparate systems and allow organizations to utilize current legacy equipment that are not able to communicate with each other to now do so with, in most cases, not having to upgrade hardware or software on the systems themselves.

 

 

On September 8, 2015 the Merger Agreement was terminated. The Company had not taken any steps to integrate Conversant into the operations of the Company, and the Company has not yet utilized any of the assets of Conversant or combined the financial results of Conversant into the financials of the Company. The Company believes that the termination of the Merger Agreement will not have a material effect on its operations.

The Board of Directors of Ubiquity, Inc. determined, that the accounting for certain intangible assets, the valuation of certain equity instruments, the non-consolidation of SME that certain amounts were not properly accounted for in prior years and that the financial statement for the three months ended September 30, 2014 were materially misstated.

The following is a description of the restated September 30, 2014 as filed herein.

 

(A) The differences reflect the consolidation of SME effective January 1, 2014 and the change to SME’s accounts during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. At the time, the Company did not have an equity ownership in SME. However, since SME was primarily owned by officers of the Company. The Company determined that as of January 1, 2014, SME should be consolidated in with the Company’s operations. This determination was based upon the fact that the Company was the primary funding source for SME’s operations. Prior to 2014, SME funded operations through the sale of SME common stock. In addition, all inter-company transactions between SME and Ubiquity were eliminated.

 

(B) To correct amortization expense on intangible assets. The Company adjusted amortization expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The change was primarily due to the reduction in carrying value of the intangible assets prior to December 31, 2012, offset by a decrease in estimated life of such asset from fifteen to five year. In addition, the Company expensed $90,178 and $338,519 in development expenses in which had been previously capitalized during the three months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.

 

(C) To correct bonuses recorded as an offset to equity rather than expense. Previously, the bonuses had been recorded as an offset to the proceeds recorded within additional paid in capital. The correction increased the net loss for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 by $158,648 and $443,018, respectively.

 

(D) To correct stock based compensation related to options granted to management and employees. Initially, the options issuable under employment contract were valued at the end of the year. However, beginning in 2014 the options were valued at the beginning of the year and expensed over the course of the year. This change caused additional expense of $269,177 and $1,891,585 to be recorded within the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively.

 

(E) To correct stock based compensation related to common stock issued for services. In connection with a services agreement with Nick Mitsakos with a one year term entered into during 2013. Initially, the Company recorded the unamortized portion of $312,500 as deferred stock based compensation. To correct, the Company recorded the remaining amortization as a prepaid, amortizing over the term of the agreement. The adjustment increased compensation expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 by $0 and $22,325, respectively.

 

(F) To correct amounts accrued under Nick Mitsakos’ consulting contract in which were earned during the three months ended March 31, 2014 but recorded within the three months September 30, 2014.

 

 

(G) To correct the par value of shares incorrectly shown as outstanding as of December 31, 2013 in which were never issued. The shares were not split effected during the 4:1 forward split and thus causing the error. In addition, the item had an impact on the weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 950,000 common shares.

Overview

 

Ubiquity, Inc. (the “Company,” “Ubiquity,”, “We,” or “Us”), was incorporated in the State of Nevada on December 2, 2011. On March 5, 2013, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ubiquity Acquisition Corporation, a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Acquisition Sub”), and Ubiquity Broadcasting Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Ubiquity-DE”).

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Acquisition Sub merged with and into Ubiquity-DE in a statutory reverse triangular merger (the “Merger”), with Ubiquity-DE surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. At the closing of the Merger on September 20, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), we issued Ubiquity-DE shareholders one share of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share for each share of Ubiquity-DE’s common stock, par value $0.001 (the “Share Exchange”). As a result of the Merger, we ceased our prior operations and became a multimedia company focused on the intersection of cloud-based cross platform applications synchronized across all screens for enhancing the digital lifestyle.

 

The transaction was regarded as a reverse merger whereby Ubiquity-DE was considered to be the accounting acquirer as its management retained control of the Company after the Share Exchange.

 

Business

 

Ubiquity, Inc. (“Ubiquity” or the “Company”) is focused on providing a platform which enables anyone to connect to internet-based content on any type of device. Ubiquity’s unique technology and robust patent portfolio has led to the development of the Company’s signature product, the Sprocket. The Sprocket can be easily downloaded onto any type of device (such as mobile phone, tablet, laptop, etc.) and then easily customized to provide the user with easy access to all web-based content, social media outlets, video-based content, private networks, social networks, personalized files, intelligent search, and virtually all other media. In short, the Sprocket provides easy and expedited access to content in the manner and choices selected by the user. The Sprocket also provides detailed analytics and data on the end-users, delivering tremendous value as a marketing tool to the content providers and advertisers.

 

 

The Company believes it can license the Sprocket platform to third-party companies, such as telecom companies and large enterprises, enabling these customers to develop personalized applications either for their customer base or within their enterprise. It is envisioned that the end-user will pay a nominal monthly fee for the Sprocket, that nominal fee would be multiplied by the total number of users, resulting in a potentially substantial license fee to the Company in the form of recurring revenue.

 

The Company has developed several unique products that function very effectively on the Sprocket platform, such as GiftSender (a mobile wallet); Monkeybars (a social mobility distribution platform); and, its own video search engine. The Sprocket platform is also a powerful incubator. Third-party developers can use its common standard to develop effective apps that address any range of users’ needs and applications. The Company also has proprietary video intelligence software which it proposes to sell to government customers.

 

The Company is committed to bringing the best user experience to its customers through its innovative products and services. The Company’s business strategy leverages its unique ability to design and develop its own proprietary platforms, software applications, and services to provide its customers new products and solutions with superior ease-of-use, seamless integration, and innovative design. The Company believes continual investment in research and development, marketing and advertising is critical to the development and sale of innovative products and technologies. As part of its strategy, the Company continues to expand its platform for the discovery and delivery of third-party digital content and applications. The Company also supports a community for the development of third-party software and hardware products and digital content that complement the Company’s offerings. The Company’s strategy also includes expanding its distribution network to effectively reach more customers and to serve as a gateway for new business opportunities worldwide.

No such impairment was necessary during the three months ended September 30, 2014.

 

Comparison for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014

 

Net Revenue

 

Net revenues were $34,800 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 as compared to $62,735 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, a decrease of $27,935 or 45%.

Impairment Loss

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2015, the Company completed its impairment analysis of its intangible assets, which showed that anticipated revenue streams to be derived from certain of its intangible assets may be delayed. Management feels it is likely to meet its revenue projections moving forward, however, due to the fact that the timing of anticipated revenues has been extended, the Company determined that a one-time impairment of the Sprocket Asset Group was appropriate to reflect this difference in timing. No such impairment was necessary during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

 

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Cash requirements for, but not limited to, working capital, capital expenditures, and debt repayments have been funded from cash balances on hand, sales of common stock, revolver borrowings including the use of credit cards, loans from officers, and notes payable.

 

At September 30, 2015, Ubiquity had cash and cash equivalents of $142,190 as compared to $102,286 as of December 31, 2014, representing an increase of $39,904.

 

The cash flow used in operating activities decreased to $3,984,670 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 compared to $5,649,852 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Our net loss during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 had the biggest impact on our cash used in operating activities as to date we have not generated sufficient revenues to cover our operating expenditures.

 

The cash flow used in investing activities decreased to net cash used of $251,251 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to net cash used of $903,505 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. During 2014, we were still developing our Sprocket platform in which higher development costs were incurred. In addition, we loaned monies to related parties in which was a significant use of capital.

 

The cash flow provided by financing activities decreased to net cash provided of $4,275,825 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015, as compared to net cash provided of $6,734,850 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. Due to the loss from operations, we continue to raise capital through the sale of our common stock and issuance of notes payable in order to fund operations. Capital is raised on an as needed basis.

 

Going Concern

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, the Company has negative working capital, has incurred operating losses since inception, and has not yet produced significant continuing revenues from operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

 

The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event that the Company cannot continue as a going concern. Management anticipates that it will be able to raise additional working capital through the issuance of stock and through additional loans from investors.

 

The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the Company’s ability to attain a satisfactory level of profitability and obtain suitable and adequate financing. There can be no assurance that management’s plan will be successful.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

The Company does not expect the adoption of recently issued accounting pronouncements to have a significant impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our significant accounting policies are presented in our notes to financial statements for the period ended September 30, 2015 and fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, which are contained in the Company’s 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The significant accounting policies that are most critical and aid in fully understanding and evaluating the reported financial results include the following:

 

The Company prepares its financial statements in conformity with GAAP. These principles require 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. Management believes that these estimates are reasonable and have been discussed with our board of directors; however, actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

 

We issue restricted stock to consultants for various services. Cost for these transactions are measured at the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of the common stock is measured at the earlier of (i) the date at which a firm commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached or (ii) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

We are a Smaller Reporting Company and are not required to provide the information under this item.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Disclosure of controls and procedures.

 

As required by Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), our management, including our principal executive officer and principal accounting officer carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the foregoing evaluation, we have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2015 and that they do not allow for information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive and Principal Accounting & Financial Officers as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

The material weaknesses relate to the following:

 

1.	We do not have written documentation of our internal control policies and procedures. Written documentation of key internal controls over financial reporting is a requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act which is applicable to us. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have written documentation of our internal controls and procedures on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.
2.	We do not have sufficient segregation of duties within accounting functions, which is a basic internal control. Due to our size and nature, segregation of all conflicting duties may not always be possible and may not be economically feasible. However, to the extent possible, the initiation of transactions, the custody of assets and the recording of transactions should be performed by separate individuals. Management evaluated the impact of our failure to have segregation of duties on our assessment of our disclosure controls and procedures and has concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

To address these material weaknesses, management performed additional analyses and other procedures to ensure that the financial statements included herein fairly present, in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. We engaged a third party that specializes in technical accounting and financial reporting to assist us in preparation of our quarterly and annual financial statements and to assist us in documenting our internal controls. However, for the foreseeable future due to our limited accounting personnel we will continue to have limited segregation of duties.

 

Changes in internal controls over financial reporting.

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

Ubiquity v. Castro:

 

On or about July 2014 Ubiquity filed a demand for arbitration with JAMS against Lawrence E. Castro (“Castro”) for breach of the settlement agreement dated August 19, 2013, which was executed to settle and resolve a dispute between the Company and Castro regarding a prior “Work for Hire” relationship between the parties (the “Castro Settlement”). Under the Castro Settlement, the Company paid Castro monetary compensation in exchange for providing certain agreements and assurances designed to protect certain intellectual property, business plans, road maps, vendors, investor relationships, employee relationships, contractors and work in progress. The arbitration complaint filed by the Company alleges that Castro breached the Castro Settlement and is seeking damages in the amount of $176,763, plus interest, representing the stated damages in the settlement agreement of what the Company has paid to Castro. The Company is also seeking injunctive relief, actual losses incurred by Castro’s breach, and damages for unjust enrichment, including expenses and other sundry damages. The arbitration is currently in the discovery phase, which will enable both Castro and the Company to obtain documents and further evidence supporting their respective cases, as the disclosure of witnesses. In February 2016, Castro’s attorneys filed a motion with the arbitrator to withdraw, which motion was granted. Castro presently is in pro per. The arbitrator has ordered Castro until April 29, 2016, if he intends to retain counsel. On June 1, 2016, the arbitrator will set an arbitration date for the hearing on this matter.

 

Kay Strategies v. Ubiquity:

 

Kay Strategies filed a complaint against the Company and its officers and directors for various violations of federal and state securities law, in the District Court for the Southern District of California. The Company and its officers and directors thereafter moved to dismiss the complaint under FRCP 12(b)(5) and 12(b)(6). Kay Strategies chose instead to amend voluntarily. Kay Strategies then filed a First Amended Complaint, alleging the same federal and state securities violations. The amended pleading essentially alleges that Kay Strategies purchased restricted Ubiquity stock from a third party. Kay Strategies’ personal representatives allegedly advised it that they were orally informed by Ubiquity’s outside securities’ attorney that it would lift the stock restrictions by a certain date, which did not occur, allegedly causing Kay Strategies damages. Kay Strategies contends that it would not have purchased the Ubiquity stock from the third party had it not had this assurance. The Company denies that it ever made such a guarantee or represented same to Kay Strategies’ representative. Ubiquity also contends that if outside counsel made any statements [which the Company denies happening], counsel was never authorized to do so. Prior to the stock purchase, no authorized director, officer or agent of the Company met with or discussed with anyone at Kay Strategies its prospective purchase of the Company’s stock from any third party. Ubiquity recently filed another FRCP 12(b)(6) motion challenging the efficacy of these allegations. The district court thereafter dismissed Kay Strategies’ First Amended Complaint without prejudice.

 

Typenex v. Ubiquity:

 

On August 14, 2015, the Company was served with a demand for arbitration by Typenex Co-Investment, LLC (“Typenex”). Typenex was the holder of one of the many convertible notes issued by the Company. Typenex was claiming, among other things, that the Company is in breach of the convertible note issued in its favor (the “Note”), and that it is entitled to an injunction against the Company enjoining it from, among other things, up to and until the Note is paid in full (i) issuing any other convertible debt with a variable interest rate; (ii) paying any cash to the holders of any other convertible notes issued by the Company; and, (iii) issuing any additional shares of stock to the holders of any other variable interest rate convertible notes issued by the Company. The arbitrator issued an interim injunction for the equitable relief described above. Arbitration finally took place on March 22, 2016, and the arbitrator tentatively awarded Typenex damages, attorney fees and costs of $767,960.42, less $150,000.00, for a total award of $617,960.42. In addition, the arbitrator awarded Typenex costs. Finally, the arbitrator kept in place the prior interim restraining orders. Though Chris Carmichael also was named a defendant, he was dismissed by Typenex prior to the arbitration hearing. On April 19, 2016, Typenex filed a petition in the Third Judicial District Court in and for Salt Lake County, Utah to confirm the award. Ubiquity intends to respond and object to the petition. While the Company admittedly owes the principal on the Note, the Company believes the arbitrator erred in awarding any damages or interest thereon. Error is further ascribed to the arbitrator’s continuance of injunctive relief.

 

Avant Garde v. Ubiquity:

 

Avant Garde initiated litigation against the Company, for the recovery of the Company’s lease of its office space in Irvine, California, claiming the Company’s failed to timely pay its September 2015 rent, allegedly one day late, under the applicable lease. When Ubiquity failed inadvertantly to timely answer the unlawful detainer suit, the Company was defaulted. Instead of moving to set aside the default, the Company entered into two forbearance agreements, both of which lapsed. The Company then moved the Orange County Superior Court for an order restoring the lease, which motion was denied. The court thereafter stayed the action pending the outcome of an appeal challenging the denial filed by Ubiquity. The stay is still in effect. The appeal should be heard in about eight months. On March 14, 2016 Ubiquity paid an additional $150,000 for an increased security deposit until the appeal is finalized.

 

 

Keener Litigation

 

On March 10, 2016 Vista Capital Investments, LLC (“Vista”) filed suit against the Company for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, declaratory relief, promissory estoppel, fraud, negligent misrepresentation and civil conspiracy in the Superior Court, Central Division, For the County Of San Diego, California. The genesis of the suit is Vista’s allegations that the Company breached two Convertible Notes, one for $100,000 and the other for $50,000, by failing to timely repay these notes, when Vista declared the notes all due and payable after the Company allegedly failed to make timely filings with the SEC. The Company denies any wrongdoing, and intends to challenge the complaint by demurrer. Vista also seeks fraud damages against Chris Carmichael, the Company’s CEO, for allegedly representing that the Company would remain current in its SEC filings if the Loans were made.

 

Keener Litigation

 

On March 15, 2016, Justin Keener (“Keener”) sued the Company for breach of contract, arising out of a $300,000.00 convertible note representing capital infusions by Keener into the Company. Keener alleges the Company has failed to timely repay the note, after Keener demanded payment of the entire principal and interest under the note due to the Company’s default of certain other provisions of the note, which, as alleged, accelerated the note repayments.

 

Firstfire Global Opportunities Litigation

 

On March 28, 2016, Firstfire Global Opportunities (“Firstfire”) filed suit against the Company for breach of a securities purchase agreement and a $140,250.00 senior convertible note, attorneys’ fees and unjust enrichment in the Supreme Court of New York, New York County. Firstfire contends that the Company breached the note by failing to timely repay “any amount towards the aggregate sum that Firstfire is owed,” the total of which is $304.889.88.

 

Brett and Mark Tomberlin Lawsuit

 

On April 8^, 2016 a lawsuit was filed in the Orange County Superior Court by Brett and Mark Tomberlin, seeking damages for Ubiquity’s failure to timely repay under eight promissory notes totaling $184,450. They also claim that they were misled into believing that the notes would be paid timely. The Company denies the allegations. At present, and without admitting liability, the Company and Mr. Tomberlin are in settlement negotiations. In the meantime, the Company intends to demurrer to the complaint.

 

R Squared Partners, LLC Litigation

 

On April 20, 2016, R Squared Partners, LLC (“R Squared”) filed suit in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York against Ubiquity and its CEO, Chris Carmichael, for breach of contract, breach of the implied covenant, unjust enrichment, specific performance, fraud, negligent misrepresentation, and civil conspiracy. The complaint essentially alleges that the Company entered into a purchase and note transaction with R Squared whereby R Squared loaned the Company $140,250.00, which was due on September 20, 2015. R Squared alleges that, except for a $20,000.00 payment, the Company has not timely repaid the principal or interest on the note. R Squared also avers that the Company defaulted under other terms of the purchase agreement, including the Company’s failure to obtain certain insurance policies, reduction of the book – value of certain of its assets, impairing its ability to pay its debts, and failure to honor R Squared’s third party participation rights by entering into third party financing agreements, though R Squared alleges that it has lost “not less than” $500,000.00. R Squared also seeks sundry injunctive relief, restraining the Company and Carmichael from entering into future third party agreements and stock issuances. Finally, R Squared seeks undefined fraud damages against the Company and its CEO arising out of the Company’s and Carmichael alleged representations, as manifested in the purchase agreement.

 

North Matter:

 

On October 10, 2014, the Company was served with a complaint filed on September 13, 2014 by a former consultant against the Company, in the Superior Court of Arizona, Maricopa County. The complaint alleges that the consultant was to receive warrants to purchase 1,142,857 shares of common stock as a commencement fees for services in which commenced on December 15, 2006. The Company believes the claim is without merit; in addition, the statute of limitations has passed. The Company does not believe that a loss is probable and no accrual for loss contingency has been made.
