Loton, Corp

For the Three and Nine Months Ended December 31, 2016 and 2015

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1 – Organization, Operations and Basis of Presentation; Going Concern

 

Business and Operations

 

Loton, Corp (“we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) was incorporated under the laws of the State of Nevada on December 28, 2009. The Company’s mission is to aggregate live music and content driven by live music through mutually beneficial relationships with the world’s top talent, music companies, festivals and promoters and to provide fans with the opportunity to see their favorite festivals, concerts and experiences on any screen they choose across all video platforms and devices from mobile to home. 

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein reflect all material adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments and reclassifications and non-recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are ordinary and necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures required under the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of March 31, 2016 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on July 19, 2016 (the “2016 Annual Report”). These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements for the year ended March 31, 2016 and notes thereto included in the 2016 Annual Report.

 

The results of operations for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire fiscal year or for any other period.

 

The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015 presented herein have been restated to present the Company’s former investment in OCHL on the equity basis of accounting and to correct for other prior errors. Please see Note 3 – Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements for additional details.

 

Forward Stock Split

 

In September 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 2-for-1 forward stock split of the Company’s common stock in the form of a dividend. All shares and pre-share amounts have been restated as of the earlier periods presented to reflect the stock split.

 

Revenue Policy

 

The Company is primarily engaged in the emerging live and digital music space, including delivery of live music events and live music streaming, through LiveXLive, Corp., its wholly owned operating subsidiary. The Company recognizes revenue from its live events and show productions when all of the following criteria are met: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, (ii) the show or live event has been completed and occurred and there are no future production obligations, (iii) the sales price is fixed or determinable, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured.  

 

Going Concern

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, and which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in its consolidated financial statements, the Company had a stockholders’ deficit of $3,813,598 at December 31, 2016, and incurred a net loss of $9,143,122, and utilized net cash of $2,580,499 in operating activities for the nine month-period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, the Company’s independent public accounting firm in its audit report to the financial statements included in the 2016 Annual Report expressed substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

 F-6 

 

 

Management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through September 2017. The Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on its ability to execute its strategy and on its ability to raise additional funds. The Company’s management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate the Company’s business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing or cause substantial dilution for the Company’s stockholders, in case of equity and/or convertible debt financing.

 

Note 2 - Significant Accounting Policies and Practices

 

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date(s) of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period(s). Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Management regularly evaluates the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates utilizing currently available information, changes in facts and circumstances, historical experience and reasonable assumptions. After such evaluations, if deemed appropriate, those estimates are adjusted accordingly. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include those related to assumptions used in impairment testing of long term assets, accruals for potential liabilities and valuing equity instruments issued for services. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The Company’s consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities are as follows:

 

Name of consolidated subsidiary
or entity
  State or other jurisdiction of
incorporation or organization
 

Date of incorporation or
formation (date of
acquisition, if applicable)

  Attributable 
interest
 
               
LiveXLive, Corp.   Delaware   February 24, 2015     100 %
                 
KOKO (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc.   Delaware   March 17, 2014     100 %
                 
KOKO (Camden) UK Limited   England and Wales   November 7, 2013     100 %

 

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include all accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and/or entities as of reporting period ending date(s) and for the reporting period(s) then ended. All inter-Company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company follows the FASB Accounting Standards Codification for disclosures about fair value of its financial instruments and to measure the fair value of its financial instruments. The FASB Accounting Standards Codification establishes a fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The three levels of fair value hierarchy are described below:

 

Level 1   Quoted market prices available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.
     
Level 2   Pricing inputs other than quoted prices in active markets included in Level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date.
     
Level 3   Pricing inputs that are generally observable inputs and not corroborated by market data.

 

Financial assets are considered Level 3 when their fair values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable.

 

The carrying amounts of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, including cash, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities, approximate their fair values because of the short maturity of these instruments.

   

 F-7 

 

 

Investment in Unconsolidated Subsidiary Under the Equity Method

 

The Company accounts for investments in which the Company owns more than 20% of the investee using the equity method in accordance with ASC Topic 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method, an investor initially records an investment in the investee at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the investor’s share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of acquisition. The amount of the adjustment is included in the determination of net income by the investor, and such amount reflects adjustments similar to those made in preparing consolidated statements including adjustments to eliminate intercompany gains and losses, and to amortize, if appropriate, any difference between investor cost and underlying equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment. The investment of an investor is also adjusted to reflect the investor’s share of changes in the investee’s capital. Dividends received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of the investment has occurred which is other than temporary and which should be recognized even though the decrease in value is in excess of what would otherwise be recognized by application of the equity method.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company periodically issues stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by FASB where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. The Company accounts for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB where the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Options granted to non-employees are revalued each reporting period to determine the amount to be recorded as an expense in the respective period. As the options vest, they are valued on each vesting date and an adjustment is recorded for the difference between the value already recorded and the then current value on the date of vesting. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

 

The fair value of the Company’s stock option and warrant grants are estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods.

 

Income taxes

 

The Company follows the asset and liability method which requires recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are based on the differences between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance to the extent management concludes it is more likely than not that the assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the Statements of Operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

 

The estimated future tax effects of temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities are reported in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, as well as tax credit carry-backs and carry-forwards. The Company periodically reviews the recoverability of deferred tax assets recorded on its consolidated balance sheets and provides valuation allowances as management deems necessary.

 

Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. In management’s opinion, adequate provisions for income taxes have been made for all years. If actual taxable income by tax jurisdiction varies from estimates, additional allowances or reversals of reserves may be necessary. The Company’s tax years 2011 to 2014 remain subject to examination by major tax jurisdictions.  

 

Pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code Section 382 (“Section 382”), certain ownership changes may subject the net operating losses’ (the “NOLs”) to annual limitations which could reduce or defer the NOL. Section 382 imposes limitations on a corporation’s ability to utilize NOLs if it experiences an “ownership change.” In general terms, an ownership change may result from transactions increasing the ownership of certain stockholders in the stock of a corporation by more than 50 percentage points over a three-year period. In the event of an ownership change, utilization of the NOLs would be subject to an annual limitation under Section 382 determined by multiplying the value of its stock at the time of the ownership change by the applicable long-term tax-exempt rate. Any unused annual limitation may be carried over to later years. The imposition of this limitation on its ability to use the NOLs to offset future taxable income could cause the Company to pay U.S. federal income taxes earlier than if such limitation were not in effect and could cause such NOLs to expire unused, reducing or eliminating the benefit of such NOLs.

Loss Per Share

 

Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the loss of the Company. In computing diluted loss per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options and warrants may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants.

 

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had 275,000 and 1,275,000 warrants outstanding, respectively, which were excluded from the loss per share calculation, as they were anti-dilutive.

 

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 is a comprehensive revenue recognition standard that will supersede nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replace it with a principle based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 will require that companies recognize revenue based on the value of transferred goods or services as they occur in the contract. The ASU also will require additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. ASU 2014-09 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted only in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein. Entities will be able to transition to the standard either retrospectively or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.

 

In August, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, which provides guidance on determining when and how to disclose going-concern uncertainties in the financial statements. The new standard requires management to perform interim and annual assessments of an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year of the date the financial statements are issued. An entity must provide certain disclosures if conditions or events raise substantial doubt about the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The ASU applies to all entities and is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods thereafter, with early adoption permitted.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-02, Leases. ASU 2016-02 requires a lessee to record a right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. ASU 2016-02 is effective for all interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02 on the Company’s financial statements and disclosures.

 

Other recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB, including its Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, and the SEC did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future consolidated financial statement presentation or disclosures.

 

Note 3 – Restatement of Prior Period Financial Statements

 

Our financial statements for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015 have been restated. On July 11, 2016, our Board of Directors determined that the transactions under the Agreement (as defined below) were erroneously accounted for as a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes and that OCHL was improperly included in consolidation as our subsidiary. OCHL should have been reflected as an investment accounted for under the equity method of accounting. This determination was based on an analysis by our management that we did not have sufficient control of OCHL at the date of the transaction in accordance with the current accounting rules. Therefore, our results for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2015 previously reported in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on February 22, 2016 are being restated herein to properly present the Merger (as defined below) and our former investment in OCHL on the equity basis of accounting and correct the prior period for other errors. 

  

 F-9 

 

 

Specifically, on April 28, 2014, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Agreement”), by and among our Company, Loton Acquisition Sub I, Inc., a Delaware corporation and our wholly-owned subsidiary (“Acquisition Sub”), and KOKO (Camden) Holdings (US), Inc. (“KOKO Parent”), a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of JJAT Corp. (“JJAT”), a Delaware corporation wholly-owned by Robert Ellin, our Executive Chairman, President, a director and controlling stockholder), and his affiliates (the “Merger”). As a result of the Merger, KOKO Parent became our wholly-owned subsidiary, and our then primary business became that of KOKO Parent and its subsidiaries, KOKO (Camden) Limited, a private limited company registered in England and Wales (“KOKO UK”), which owned 50% of OCHL, which in turn wholly-owns its operating subsidiary OBAR Camden. Upon the closing of the Merger, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, KOKO Parent’s former sole shareholder, JJAT, received 58,000,000 shares of our common stock. Since both we and JJAT were controlled by Mr. Ellin at the time of the consummation of the Merger, this reverse merger transaction should have been accounted for as a transaction between entities under common control. Accordingly, this equity method investment should have been initially measured on our financial statements at  JJAT’s historical basis of $4.2 million.

 

As discussed in Note 4 – Equity Investments in OCHL, in connection with the Settlement Transactions with Mr. Oliver Bengough, on December 1, 2016 and effective as of November 24, 2016, we sold our 50% interest in OCHL, representing our ownership in the nightclub and live music venue “KOKO” in Camden, London, England, for approximately $2.18 million.

Note 4 – Equity Investments in OCHL

 

On April 28, 2014, the Company acquired a 50% equity interest in OCHL, an entity that owns Obar Camden Limited (OCL), a music and entertainment company whose principal business is the operation of a live music venue and nightclub known as KOKO, located in Camden, London. KOKO provides live shows, club nights, corporate and other events at KOKO. The Company acquired its 50% interest through the issuance of 58,000,000 shares of its common stock to the seller, JJAT, an entity wholly owned by Mr. Ellin. Since both the Company and JJAT were controlled by Mr. Ellin at the time of this transaction, the transaction was accounted for as a transaction between related parties at the related parties’ original basis. Accordingly, the Company recorded the equity method investment at $4.2 million which is JJAT’s historical basis in OCHL.

 

As part of the transaction, the Company was to be reimbursed $494,750 by OCHL for legal and other acquisition costs incurred in relation to the acquisition of the 50% interest. As of March 31, 2016, the outstanding advance and any interest due thereunder to the Company was $213,331.

 

The Company and the various parties to the agreement had certain disputes. On September 22, 2016, Mr. Bengough entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the Company and our Executive Chairman and President and Global Loan Agency Services Limited, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), relating to the Petition as more fully described in Note 10. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the parties agreed (i) to terms of settlement in relation to all facts, matters and allegations raised by the Petition against the Respondents, including disputed liability under a Promissory Note, dated as of April 28, 2014 (the “Note”), pursuant to which OCHL and OCL were jointly obligated to us for the principal amount of $494,749 and accrued interest rate of 8%, (ii) for us to sell 48,878 ordinary shares and 2,750 deferred ordinary shares in OCHL (collectively, the “KoKo Shares”) to Mr. Bengough on the terms provided in the Settlement Agreement, (iii) to resolve certain ancillary matters arising from the past business dealings between Mr. Bengough and the Respondents, and (iv) to consummate the transactions contemplated thereunder and under certain related transaction documents (as defined below) (collectively, the “Settlement Transactions”).

 

As part of the Settlement Transactions, Messrs. Ellin and Bengough engaged BTG Financial Consulting LLP BTG (“BTG”) to carry out an independent expert valuation of the value of the ordinary shares in OCHL on the terms set forth in the engagement letter entered into by the parties (the “Valuation”). Upon the conclusion of the Valuation, among other things, (i) Mr. Bengough agreed to pay to us 50% of the value of the ordinary and deferred ordinary shares in OCHL minus £37,000, (ii) the Settlement Transactions would be consummated, and (iii) we would discharge the Note, without any further payment by Mr. Bengough or any other entity to Mr. Ellin, KoKo UK or us.

 

On November 24, 2016, BTG delivered its final report on the Valuation (the “Valuation Report”) to the parties and that its analysis yielded that the value of the ordinary shares of OCHL is £3,612,057, therefore entitling us to £1,769,029 (or 50% of the value) minus £37,000 (the “Final Sale Price”). On December 1, 2016, the Escrow Agent paid to us, via the funds deposited by Mr. Bengough, approximately $2.18 million as the Final Sale Price and the Settlement Transactions were automatically consummated (including our sale of the KoKo Shares to Mr. Bengough), and we recognized a loss of $2,790,073 for the remaining investment balance. In addition, Mr. Bengough was released from his obligation under the note receivable - related party; therefore, we recognized a loss on impairment of the note of $213,331.

Note 6 – Related Party Notes Payable

 

As of December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, the Company had the following outstanding notes payable to Trinad Capital Master Fund (“Trinad Capital”), a fund wholly owned by Mr. Ellin, the Company’s Executive Chairman, President, director and majority stockholder, for both short and long term working capital requirements:

 

   December 31, 2016   March 31, 2016 
First Senior Note  $1,000,000   $1,000,000 
Second Senior Note   2,154,100    1,784,000 
Total  $3,154,100   $2,784,000 

  

First Senior Note - Trinad Capital Master Fund

At the time the First Senior Note was made, Trinad Capital advanced $700,000 to the Company and had accrued $70,151 in unpaid interest. Pursuant to the terms of the Senior Note, all outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest was originally due and payable on June 30, 2016 or such later date as Trinad Capital may agree to in writing unless, prior to such date, the First Senior Note has been repaid in full or Trinad Capital elects to convert all or any portion of the then-outstanding loan balance into common stock of the Company in connection with the Company consummating an equity financing in excess of $5,000,000 or greater as set forth in the terms of the First Senior Note. Subsequent to the making of the First Senior Note:

 

  · On January 27, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital entered into an amendment to the First Senior Note, effective as of December 31, 2014, pursuant to which: (1) the term of the First Senior Note was extended to June 30, 2016 and (2) the conversion price for conversion of the unpaid balance and interest outstanding in connection with an equity financing was amended to be the price per share equal to the average price per share paid by investors in the equity financing;

  

  · On February 5, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital entered into an amendment and restatement of the First Senior Note, effective as of December 31, 2014, pursuant to which the convertibility feature of the note was eliminated in its entirety; and

 

  · On April 21, 2016, the First Senior Note was amended to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2017, or such later date as Trinad Capital may agree to in writing. For extending the due date of the Second Senior Note to June 30, 2017, the Company issued to Trinad Capital warrants to purchase 1,144,986 shares of its common stock, with an exercise price of $0.005 per share and expiration date of April 21, 2020. The aggregate fair value of the 1,144,986 warrants issued upon extension of the note were valued at $567,282 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 1.30%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility rate of 100%; and an expected life of four years (statutory term). The maturity date extension was considered to be a debt restructuring that is accounted for as a debt extinguishment. Therefore, the value of the warrants was expensed as of April 21, 2016.

 

As of December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, $1,000,000 of principal was outstanding under the First Senior Note. Accrued interest of $185,761 and $140,555 is reflected on the balance sheet as accrued interest payable, related party as of December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively,

The Second Senior Note bears interest at the rate of eight percent (8%) per annum and all outstanding unpaid principal and accrued interest is due and payable on June 30, 2016 or such later date as Trinad Capital may agree to in writing, unless prior to such date this note has been prepaid in full. During the year ended March 31, 2016, Trinad Capital made advances to the Company totaling $1,784,000. Subsequent to the making of the Second Senior Note:

 

  · On July 10, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital amended and restated the Second Senior Note from $195,500 to the lesser of (i) $1,000,000 (the “Maximum Advance Amount”), or (ii) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the advances;

 

  · On November 23, 2015, the Company and Trinad Capital amended the Second Senior Note to increase the Maximum Advance Amount to $2,000,000; and

 

  · On April 26, 2016, the Second Senior Note was amended to increase the Maximum Advance Amount to $3,000,000 and to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2017 or such later date as Trinad Capital may agree to in writing. For extending the due date of the Second Senior Note to June 30, 2017, the Company issued to Trinad Capital warrants to purchase 2,207,768 shares of its common stock, with an exercise price of $0.005 per share and expiration date of April 21, 2020. The aggregate fair value of the 2,207,768 warrants issued upon extension of the note were valued at $1,093,832 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 1.30%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility rate of 100%; and an expected life of four years (statutory term). The maturity date extension was considered to be a debt restructuring that is accounted for as a debt extinguishment. Therefore, the value of the warrants was expensed as of April 21, 2016.

  

The amount due to Trinad Capital under the Second Senior Note was $1,784,000 at March 31, 2016.

(A) On January 19, 2016, the Company issued three 8% unsecured notes payable to investors (the “Lenders”) for an aggregate amount of $200,000. These notes will be due on January 19, 2018. If the Company raises a minimum of $2,500,000 (excluding the amount converting pursuant to the notes) in the aggregate in gross proceeds from an equity financing led by a reputable institutional investor in one or more closings prior to the maturity date, the Lenders will have the rights to convert all outstanding principal and interest into the same equity securities issued in such qualified equity financing at 75% of the issuance price of the securities in such financing. In addition, the Lenders received 400,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.005 per share. The aggregate relative fair value of the 400,000 warrants issued to the Lender was determined to be $99,915 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 1.30%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility rate of 100%; and an expected life of four years (statutory term). The value of the warrants of $99,915 was considered as debt discount upon issuance and was being amortized as interest over the term of the notes or in full upon the conversion of the corresponding notes. During the year ended March 31, 2016, the Company amortized $9,818 of such discount to interest expense, and the unamortized discount as of March 31, 2016 was $89,727. During the period ended December 31, 2016, such debt discount was fully amortized to interest expense.

 

On June 6, 2016, the Lenders converted $200,000 of principal and $5,918 of interest into 205,918 shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $1 per share. As the market price of the shares on the date of conversion was approximately $1.67 per share, the Company recognized a beneficial conversion cost of $136,936.

 

In addition, the Lenders were issued 205,920 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.005 per share as inducement for this conversion. The aggregate fair value of the 205,920 warrants issued to the Lenders was $341,864 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 1.20%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility rate of 100%; and an expected life of three years (statutory term). The value of the warrants of $341,864 was considered as additional interest expense upon their issuance. The warrants were exercised immediately into 205,920 shares of the Company’s common stock with net proceeds of $1,030 to the Company.

 

(B) On August 19, 2016, the Company issued a 6% unsecured note payable to a certain investor for total principal amount of $55,000. This note will be due on September 30, 2018. If the Company raises a minimum of $5,000,000 (excluding the amount converting pursuant to the note) in the aggregate in gross proceeds from an equity financing led by a reputable institutional investor in one or more closings prior to the maturity date, the investor will have the rights to convert all outstanding principal and interest into the same equity securities issued in such qualified equity financing at 75% of the issuance price of the securities in such financing. On December 21, 2016, this note was repaid.

 

(C) On September 14, 2016, the Company issued a 6% unsecured note payable to a certain investor for total principal amount of $150,000. This note will be due on September 13, 2018. If the Company raises a minimum of $5,000,000 (excluding the amount converting pursuant to the note) of aggregate gross proceeds from an equity financing led by a reputable institutional investor in one or more closings prior to the maturity date, the investor will have the right to convert all outstanding note principal and interest into the same equity securities issued in such equity financing at 75% of the issuance price of the securities issued in such financing. In addition, the investor received 150,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.005 per share. The aggregate relative fair value of the 150,000 warrants issued to the investor was determined to be $93,612 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 0.90%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility rate of 100%; and an expected life of three years (statutory term). The value of the warrants of $93,612 was considered as debt discount upon issuance and will be amortized as interest over the term of the note or in full upon the conversion of the note. During nine months ended December 31, 2016, the Company amortized $13,866 of such discount to interest expense, and the unamortized discount as of December 31, 2016 was $79,746.  

 

(D) On November 22, 2016, the Company issued a 6% unsecured note payable to a certain investor for total principal amount of $500,000. This note will be due on September 30, 2018. If the Company raises a minimum of $5,000,000 (excluding the amount converting pursuant to the note) of aggregate gross proceeds from an equity financing led by a reputable institutional investor in one or more closings prior to the maturity date, the investor will have the right to convert all outstanding note principal and interest into the same equity securities issued in such equity financing at 75% of the issuance price of the securities issued in such financing. In addition, the investor received 250,000 warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The aggregate relative fair value of the 250,000 warrants issued to the investor was determined to be $226,811 using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model with the following average assumptions: risk-free interest rate of 1.35%; dividend yield of 0%; volatility rate of 100%; and an expected life of three years (statutory term). The value of the warrants of $226,811 was considered as debt discount upon issuance and will be amortized as interest over the term of the note or in full upon the conversion of the note. During nine months ended December 31, 2016, the Company amortized $11,807 of such discount to interest expense, and the unamortized discount as of December 31, 2016 was $215,004.

Legal Proceedings

 

On May 20, 2016, Mr. Oliver Bengough filed a Petition for Relief (the “Petition”) in the High Court of Justice, Chancery Division (the “Court”) against OCHL, OCL, KOKO UK and Mr. Ellin (collectively, the “Respondents”). In connection with the Petition, effective as of May 20, 2016, Mint Group terminated the Management Services Agreement with OCL pursuant to which Mint Group served as a contracted service provider to KOKO, a nightclub and live music venue “KOKO” in Camden, London owned by KOKO UK. Mr. Bengough claimed certain breaches of duty by Mr. Ellin in connection with the corporate operations of the Respondents, as well as a “deterioration” of the relationship between the parties. Mr. Bengough further claimed that his interests have been unfairly prejudiced by the conduct of the Respondents and the breakdown of trust and confidence between himself and Mr. Ellin. In connection with such termination, the Company demanded the resignation of Mr. Bengough (a significant stockholder of Mint Group) from the board of OCHL due to what the Company strongly believed to be performance and management concerns on behalf of Mint Group and its non-payment of certain funds. OCHL was formed by OCL’s stockholders for the sole purpose of acquiring all of the registered and contributed capital of OCL, is a 50%-owned subsidiary of the Company and is the former parent of OCL.

 

 F-17 

 

 

Among other things, Mr. Bengough was seeking an order by the Court for the sale by KOKO UK of its shares in OCHL to the Petitioner at a fair market value to be determined by the Court or an independent third party valuation with a discount to reflect the losses claimed to be suffered by Mr. Bengough. Mr. Bengough was further seeking, if required, an order terminating Mr. Ellin’s directorship of OCHL and OCL, permission to bring a derivative action against Mr. Ellin alleging breaches of certain duties set forth in the Petition, for the Court to set aside the Senior Note and Junior Note (as each defined below) or alternatively such part of those notes which the Petitioner alleges are expenses for which Respondents OCL and OCHL should not be liable and for the Court to declare that OCL and OCHL have no liability for such expenses to us, JJAT or any other person connected with Mr. Ellin. As part of the initial hearing, the Court granted Mr. Bengough’s request for interim relief to allow Mr. Bengough to continue running OCL’s business as it was conducted prior to the filing of the Petition, subject to Mr. Ellin’s approval of any expenditures exceeding $15,000 in amount (the “Interim Injunction”). This interim relief was granted pending a final decision on the Interim Injunction.

 

As part of the Merger consummated on April 28, 2014, OCHL and OCL became additional promisors under two promissory notes, a promissory note, dated as of April 28, 2014 (the “Senior Note”), issued in favor of JJAT, and a promissory note, dated as of April 28, 2014 (the “Junior Note”), issued in our favor. Pursuant to the Senior Note, OCHL and OCL are jointly liable to the Company for the principal amount of $1,376,124 and interest at 8% per annum. Pursuant to the Junior Note, OCHL and OCL are jointly liable to the Company for a principal amount of $494,749 and interest at 8% per annum.  

 

Subsequently, in connection with the Interim Injunction, the Petitioner and the Respondents entered into a Consent Order, as approved by the Court on July 22, 2016 (the “Consent Order”), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) Mr. Ellin resigned as a director of OCHL and OCL and Mr. Griston was appointed as a new independent non-executive director on the boards of directors of the two companies, and (ii) the parties agreed to certain terms allowing them to either settle the disputes or proceed with a sale of the business to either party.

 

On September 22, 2016, Mr. Bengough entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the Respondents and Global Loan Agency Services Limited, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), relating to the Petition. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, at the Closing (as defined below) the parties agreed, among other things, to (i) the terms of settlement in relation to all facts, matters and allegations raised by the Petition against the Respondents, including disputed liability under the Junior Note, (ii) sell 48,878 ordinary shares and the 2,750 deferred ordinary shares in OCHL owned by KoKo UK to Mr. Bengough on the terms provided in the Settlement Agreement, (iii) resolve certain ancillary matters arising from the past business dealings between Messrs. Ellin and Bengough, and (iv) to consummate the transactions contemplated thereunder and under certain related transaction documents (as defined below) (collectively, the “Settlement Transactions”).

 

As part of the Settlement Transactions, Messrs. Ellin and Bengough engaged BTG Financial Consulting LLP BTG (“BTG”) to carry out an independent expert valuation of the value of the ordinary shares in OCHL on the terms set forth in the engagement letter entered into by the parties (the “Valuation”). Upon the conclusion of the Valuation, among other things, (i) Mr. Bengough agreed to pay to us 50% of the value of the ordinary and deferred ordinary shares in OCHL minus £37,000, (ii) the Settlement Transactions would be consummated, and (iii) we would discharge the Note, without any further payment by Mr. Bengough or any other entity to Mr. Ellin, KoKo UK or us.

 

On November 24, 2016, BTG delivered its final report on the Valuation (the “Valuation Report”) to the parties and that its analysis yielded that the value of the ordinary shares of OCHL is £3,612,057, therefore entitling us to £1,769,029 (or 50% of the value) minus £37,000 (the “Final Sale Price”). On December 1, 2016, the Escrow Agent paid to us, via the funds deposited by Mr. Bengough, approximately $2.18 million as the Final Sale Price and the Settlement Transactions were automatically consummated (including our sale of the KoKo Shares to Mr. Bengough).

  

Note 11 – Equity Incentive Plan

 

On August 29, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders approved the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”), which reserves a total of 22,800,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under the 2016 Plan. Incentive awards authorized under the 2016 Plan include, but are not limited to, incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If an incentive award granted under the 2016 Plan expires, terminates, is unexercised or is forfeited, or if any shares are surrendered to us in connection with the exercise of an incentive award, the shares subject to such award and the surrendered shares will become available for further awards under the 2016 Plan.

   

As of the date of this Quarterly Report, no stock options or any shares of Common Stock have been issued under the 2016 Plan.

Increase of Authorized Common Stock and Creation of Preferred Stock

 

On August 29, 2016, the Company’s Board of Directors and stockholders approved for the Company to file a Certificate of Amendment to its Articles of Incorporation (the “Certificate”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada, which increased the Company’s authorized capital stock. The Certificate was filed and became effective on September 1, 2016. The Certificate increased the aggregate number of shares of capital stock which the Company has the authority to issue to 501,000,000 shares, consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s preferred stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “preferred stock”).

 

The Company may issue shares of preferred stock from time to time in one or more series, each of which will have such distinctive designation or title as shall be determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and will have such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such class or series of preferred stock as may be adopted from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors. The Company’s Board of Directors will have the power to increase or decrease the number of shares of preferred stock of any series after the issuance of shares of that series, but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding. In case the number of shares of any series shall be decreased, the shares constituting such decrease will resume the status of authorized but unissued shares of preferred stock.

 

While the Company does not currently have any plans for the issuance of preferred stock, the issuance of such preferred stock could adversely affect the rights of the holders of common stock and, therefore, reduce the value of the common stock.  It is not possible to state the actual effect of the issuance of any shares of preferred stock on the rights of holders of the common stock until and unless the Company’s Board of Directors determines the specific rights of the holders of the preferred stock; however, these effects may include: restricting dividends on the common stock, diluting the voting power of the common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of the common stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company without further action by the stockholders.

 

Note 13 – Subsequent Events

In connection with the Settlement Transactions with Mr. Oliver Bengough, on December 1, 2016 and effective as of November 24, 2016 (the “KoKo Sale Date”), we sold our 50% interest (“OCHL Interest”) in Obar Camden Holdings Limited (“OCHL”), representing our ownership in the nightclub and live music venue “KOKO” in Camden, London, England (“KOKO”)), for approximately $2.18 million. For more information on the Settlement Transactions and the sale of our interest in OCHL, see discussion below under Part II. Other Information, Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

Results of Operations

 

As of December 31, 2016, we had an accumulated deficit of $22,989,293. We anticipate that we will continue to incur substantial losses in the next 12 months. Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern. We will require additional capital to meet our long-term operating requirements. We expect to raise additional capital through, among other things, the sale of our equity and/or debt securities.

 

Three Months Ended December 31, 2016 as Compared to Three Months Ended December 31, 2015

 

Revenues ― We had no revenues for the quarters ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, from the operations of LXL.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ― Selling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of outside services, advertising, public relations and travel and entertainment expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 increased by $895,994 to $1,259,297, as compared to $363,303 in the quarter ended December 31, 2015, which reflects an increase in operating costs incurred by us during the three months ended December 31, 2016.

Management Services – Related Parties ― Management services – related party costs consisted of management fees paid and accrued by us under agreements with Trinad Management. For each of the quarters ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we incurred management fees to Trinad Management of $90,000.

 

Other (Income) ExpenseInterest expense increased by $208,107 to $257,372 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, as compared to $49,265 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015. Other expense also includes the loss incurred by us in connection with our sold OCHL Interest. In addition, for the quarters ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded earnings of $69,163 and $188,178, respectively, as our share of earnings of OCHL through the KoKo Sale Date. The decrease for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 over the same period in 2015 was due to a substantial increase in operating costs of KOKO. We recorded a loss of $2,790,073 and a write-off of note receivable from related party of $213,331 for three months ended December 31, 2016 as the result of sale of KOKO, as compared to $0 for the quarter ended December 31, 2015.

 

Net Income (Loss) Net (loss) for the quarter ended December 31, 2016 increased by $4,226,520 to ($4,540,910), as compared to $(314,390) in the quarter ended December 31, 2015, which primarily reflects an increase in our selling, general and administrative expenses and an increase in interest expense and loss incurred by us in connection with our sold OCHL Interest.

 

Nine Months Ended December 31, 2016 as Compared to Nine Months Ended December 31, 2015

 

RevenuesWe had $225,000 in revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2016, and no revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2015, from the operations of LXL. The revenues consisted entirely of a license fee paid to LXL for the production of a live video event.

 

Selling, General and Administrative ExpensesSelling, general and administrative expenses primarily consist of outside services, advertising, public relations and travel and entertainment expense. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 increased by $894,894 to $3,786,840, as compared to $2,891,946 for the nine months ended December 31, 2015, which primarily reflects an increase in operating costs incurred by us during the nine months ended December 31, 2016.

 

Management Services – Related Parties ― Management services – related party costs consisted of management fees paid and accrued by us under agreements with Trinad Management. For each of the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we incurred management fees to Trinad Management of $270,000.

 

Other (Income) ExpenseInterest expense increased by $712,767 to $779,597 for the nine months ended December 31, 2016, as compared to $66,830 for the nine months ended December 31, 2015. We also recorded $1,661,113 and $0 as the fair value of warrants issued for related party note extension for nine months ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Other expense also includes the loss incurred in connection with our sold OCHL Interest. For the nine-month periods ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded earnings of $132,832 and $268,090, respectively, as our share of earnings of OCHL through the KoKo Sale Date. The decrease for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2016 over the same period in 2015 was due to an increase in operating costs of KOKO. We recorded a loss of $2,790,073 and a write-off of note receivable from related party of $213,331 for nine months ended December 31, 2016 as the result of sale of KOKO, as compared to $0 for the period ended December 31, 2015.

 

Net Income (Loss) Net (loss) for the nine months ended December 31, 2016 increased by $6,182,436 to $(9,143,122), as compared to $(2,960,686) in the nine months ended December 31, 2015, which primarily reflects an increase in our selling, general and administrative expenses and an increase in interest expense and a loss incurred by us in connection with our sold OCHL Interest.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

As of December 31, 2016, we had total assets of $2,174,907, comprised primarily of cash of $2,098,488, prepayments of $12,940 and net property and equipment of $63,479. We sold our former principal asset, our investment in OCHL during the quarter ended December 31, 2016, and therefore, our principal asset as of December 31, 2016 was cash in the amount of $2,098,488. This compares with total assets of $5,218,308 as of March 31, 2016, comprised primarily of cash of $36,898, prepayments of $15,995 and net property and equipment of $62,569. Our principal asset at such time, our former 50% investment interest in OCHL, was valued at $4,889,515 as of March 31, 2016.

 

We had current liabilities of $5,627,389 comprised of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $677,521, short-term notes of $273,172 amounts due to related parties of $124,500, accrued interest due to related parties of $398,096, note payables due to related party of $3,154,100, and management service obligation to related party of $1,000,000, as of December 31, 2016. This compares with current liabilities of $4,877,311, comprised of accounts payable and accrued liabilities of $481,412, short-term notes of $262,042 amounts due to related parties of $117,124, accrued interest due to related parties of $232,733, note payables due to related parties of $2,784,000, and management service obligation to related party of $1,000,000, as of March 31, 2016.

During the period ended December 31, 2016, (i) Trinad Capital advanced to us $370,100 under the terms and conditions of the Second Senior Note, and (ii) we received approximately $2.18 million from the sale of our OCHL Interest.

 

We depend upon debt and/or equity financing to fund our ongoing operations and to execute its business plan. If continued funding and capital resources are unavailable at reasonable terms we may curtail our plan of operations. We will be required to obtain alternative or additional financing from financial institutions or otherwise, in order to maintain and expand our existing operations. The failure by us to obtain such financing would have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Going Concern

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that we will continue as a going concern, and which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. As reflected in the consolidated financial statements, we had a stockholders’ deficit of $3,813,598 at December 31, 2016, and incurred a net loss of $9,143,122, and utilized net cash of $2,580,499 in operating activities for the nine month-period then ended. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. In addition, our independent registered public accounting firm in their audit report to our financial statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2016 expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere herein do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern

 

Our management estimates that the current funds on hand will be sufficient to continue operations through September 30, 2017. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to execute our business strategy and in our ability to raise additional funds. Management is currently seeking additional funds, primarily through the issuance of equity and/or debt securities for cash to operate our business. No assurance can be given that any future financing will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to us. Even if we can obtain additional financing, it may contain undue restrictions on our operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for our stockholders, in case of equity and/or convertible debt financing.

  

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

Critical accounting policies are defined as those most important to the portrayal of a company’s financial condition and results and that require the most difficult, subjective or complex judgments. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. The estimates that we make include assumption as a going concern, fair value of long-lived assets, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets and estimates and assumptions used in valuation of equity instruments. Estimates are based on historical experience, where applicable or other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. We have identified the policies described in Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies and Practices to our consolidated financial statements as our critical accounting policies. However, actual results may differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

 

Investment in Unconsolidated Subsidiary Under the Equity Method

 

We account for investments in which we own more than 20% of the investee, using the equity method in accordance with ASC Topic 323, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Under the equity method, an investor initially records an investment in the stock of an investee at cost, and adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the investor’s share of the earnings or losses of the investee after the date of acquisition. The amount of the adjustment is included in the determination of net income by the investor, and such amount reflects adjustments similar to those made in preparing consolidated statements including adjustments to eliminate intercompany gains and losses, and to amortize, if appropriate, any difference between investor cost and underlying equity in net assets of the investee at the date of investment. The investment of an investor is also adjusted to reflect the investor’s share of changes in the investee’s capital. Dividends received from an investee reduce the carrying amount of the investment. A series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of the investment has occurred which is other than temporary and which should be recognized even though the decrease in value is in excess of what would otherwise be recognized by application of the equity method.

Carrying Value, Recoverability and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

 

An impairment loss will be recognized only if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable and exceeds its fair value. The carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) is not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of the asset (asset group). That assessment is based on the carrying amount of the asset (asset group) at the date it is tested for recoverability. An impairment loss is measured as the amount by which the carrying amount of a long-lived asset (asset group) exceeds its fair value. If an impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of a long-lived asset will be its new cost basis. For a depreciable long-lived asset, the new cost basis will be depreciated (amortized) over the remaining useful life of that asset. Restoring a previously recognized impairment loss is prohibited.

 

Our long-lived asset (asset group) is tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying amount may not be recoverable. We test our long-lived assets for potential impairment indicators at least annually and more frequently upon the occurrence of such events.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

We periodically issue stock options and warrants to employees and non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs. We account for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to employees based on the authoritative guidance provided by FASB where the value of the award is measured on the date of grant and recognized as compensation expense on the straight-line basis over the vesting period. We account for stock option and warrant grants issued and vesting to non-employees in accordance with the authoritative guidance of the FASB where the value of the stock compensation is based upon the measurement date as determined at either (a) the date at which a performance commitment is reached, or (b) at the date at which the necessary performance to earn the equity instruments is complete. Options granted to non-employees are revalued each reporting period to determine the amount to be recorded as an expense in the respective period. As the options vest, they are valued on each vesting date and an adjustment is recorded for the difference between the value already recorded and the then current value on the date of vesting. In certain circumstances where there are no future performance requirements by the non-employee, option grants are immediately vested and the total stock-based compensation charge is recorded in the period of the measurement date.

 

The fair value of our stock option and warrant grants are estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, which uses certain assumptions related to risk-free interest rates, expected volatility, expected life of the stock options or warrants, and future dividends. Compensation expense is recorded based upon the value derived from the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model, and based on actual experience. The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes-Merton Option Pricing model could materially affect compensation expense recorded in future periods

  

Recent Accounting Policies

 

See Note 2 – Significant Accounting Policies and Practices to our accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for our management’s discussion of recent accounting policies.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

Not required for smaller reporting companies.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2016, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. We had neither the resources, nor the personnel, to provide an adequate control environment.

 

6

 

 

Due to our limited resources, the following material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting continued to exist at December 31, 2016:

 

(i)      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 for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2016 and 2017. Our 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.

   

(ii)      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 concluded that the control deficiency that resulted represented a material weakness.

 

(iii)      Lack of independent audit committee of our Board of Directors.

 

(iv)      Insufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process, including the lack of individuals with current knowledge of GAAP that led to the restatement of our previously issued financial statements. We have hired our Interim Principal Financial Officer to assist us in implementing the necessary financial controls over the financial reporting and the utilization of internal management and staff to effectuate these controls; however, we do not have the resources, nor additional personnel, to provide sufficient monitoring and review controls over the financial reporting closing process.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

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

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

An evaluation was performed under the supervision of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer, of whether any change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in the Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Principal Financial Officer, concluded that there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report 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.

 

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm business.

 

On May 20, 2016, Mr. Oliver Bengough filed a Petition for Relief (the “Petition”) in the High Court of Justice, Chancery Division (the “Court”) against OCHL, OCL, KOKO UK and Mr. Ellin (collectively, the “Respondents”). In connection with the Petition, effective as of May 20, 2016, Mint Group terminated the Management Services Agreement with OCL pursuant to which Mint Group served as a contracted service provider to KOKO, a nightclub and live music venue “KOKO” in Camden, London (“KOKO”) owned by KOKO UK. Mr. Bengough claimed certain breaches of duty by Mr. Ellin in connection with the corporate operations of the Respondents, as well as a “deterioration” of the relationship between the parties. Mr. Bengough further claimed that his interests have been unfairly prejudiced by the conduct of the Respondents and the breakdown of trust and confidence between himself and Mr. Ellin. In connection with such termination, we demanded the resignation of Mr. Bengough (a significant stockholder of Mint Group) from the board of OCHL due to what we strongly believed to be performance and management concerns on behalf of Mint Group and its non-payment of certain funds. OCHL was formed by OCL’s stockholders for the sole purpose of acquiring all of the registered and contributed capital of OCL, is a 50%-owned subsidiary of our Company and is the parent of OCL.

 

Among other things, Mr. Bengough was seeking an order by the Court for the sale by KOKO UK of its shares in OCHL to the Petitioner at a fair market value to be determined by the Court or an independent third party valuation with a discount to reflect the losses claimed to be suffered by Mr. Bengough. Mr. Bengough was further seeking, if required, an order terminating Mr. Ellin’s directorship of OCHL and OCL, permission to bring a derivative action against Mr. Ellin alleging breaches of certain duties set forth in the Petition, for the Court to set aside the Senior Note and Junior Note (as each defined below) or alternatively such part of those notes which the Petitioner alleges are expenses for which Respondents OCL and OCHL should not be liable and for the Court to declare that OCL and OCHL have no liability for such expenses to us, JJAT or any other person connected with Mr. Ellin. As part of the initial hearing, the Court granted Mr. Bengough’s request for interim relief to allow Mr. Bengough to continue running OCL’s business as it was conducted prior to the filing of the Petition, subject to Mr. Ellin’s approval of any expenditures exceeding $15,000 in amount (the “Interim Injunction”). This interim relief was granted pending a final decision on the Interim Injunction.

 

As part of the Merger consummated on April 28, 2014, OCHL and OCL became additional promisors under 2 promissory notes, a promissory note, dated as of April 28, 2014 (the “Senior Note”), issued in favor of JJAT, and a promissory note, dated as of April 28, 2014 (the “Junior Note”), issued in our favor. Pursuant to the Senior Note, OCHL and OCL are jointly liable to us for the principal amount of $1,376,124 and interest at 8% per annum. Pursuant to the Junior Note, OCHL and OCL are jointly liable to us for a principal amount of $494,749 and interest at 8% per annum.

  

Subsequently, in connection with the Interim Injunction, the Petitioner and the Respondents entered into a Consent Order, as approved by the Court on July 22, 2016 (the “Consent Order”), pursuant to which, among other things, (i) Mr. Ellin resigned as a director of OCHL and OCL and Mr. Griston was appointed as a new independent non-executive director on the boards of directors of the 2 companies, and (ii) the parties agreed to certain terms allowing them to either settle the disputes or proceed with a sale of the business to either party.

 

On September 22, 2016, Mr. Bengough entered into a Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with the Respondents and Global Loan Agency Services Limited, as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), relating to the Petition. Pursuant to the Settlement Agreement, the parties agreed (i) to terms of settlement in relation to all facts, matters and allegations raised by the Petition against the Respondents, including disputed liability under a Promissory Note, dated as of April 28, 2014 (the “Note”), pursuant to which OCHL and OCL were jointly obligated to us for the principal amount of $494,749 and accrued interest rate of 8%, (ii) for us to sell 48,878 ordinary shares and 2,750 deferred ordinary shares in OCHL (collectively, the “KoKo Shares”) to Mr. Bengough on the terms provided in the Settlement Agreement, (iii) to resolve certain ancillary matters arising from the past business dealings between Mr. Bengough and the Respondents, and (iv) to consummate the transactions contemplated thereunder and under certain related transaction documents (as defined below) (collectively, the “Settlement Transactions”).

 

As part of the Settlement Transactions, Messrs. Ellin and Bengough engaged BTG Financial Consulting LLP BTG (“BTG”) to carry out an independent expert valuation of the value of the ordinary shares in OCHL on the terms set forth in the engagement letter entered into by the parties (the “Valuation”). Upon the conclusion of the Valuation, among other things, (i) Mr. Bengough agreed to pay to us 50% of the value of the ordinary and deferred ordinary shares in OCHL minus £37,000, (ii) the Settlement Transactions would be consummated, and (iii) we would discharge the Note, without any further payment by Mr. Bengough or any other entity to Mr. Ellin, KoKo UK or us.

On November 24, 2016, BTG delivered its final report on the Valuation (the “Valuation Report”) to the parties and that its analysis yielded that the value of the ordinary shares of OCHL is £3,612,057, therefore entitling us to £1,769,029 (or 50% of the value) minus £37,000 (the “Final Sale Price”). On December 1, 2016, the Escrow Agent paid to us, via the funds deposited by Mr. Bengough, approximately $2.18 million as the Final Sale Price and the Settlement Transactions were automatically consummated (including our sale of the KoKo Shares to Mr. Bengough).

 

Our Management’s Strong Disagreement with the final Valuation Amount and Integrity of the Valuation Process

 

Based on events that have transpired leading up to the issuance of the Valuation Report and the information that was provided by Mr. Bengough and his affiliates to BTG, and in light of the other information and documents available to the Company (including the documents that were previously submitted by Mr. Bengough with the Court), our management strongly believes that Mr. Bengough and his affiliates failed to act in good faith in providing such information and documents to BTG and strongly disagrees that the Final Sale Price fairly represents an independent informed 3rd party valuation of the KoKo Shares (representing our ownership in KOKO).

 

In particular, we are investigating:

 

·      what caused BTG to lower the multiple of 8.5x, used in BTG's prior “final” valuation report provided to the parties on November 7, 2016 prior to the issuance of the final Valuation Report, to a final multiple of 5.5x and therefore, lowering the Final Sale Price by approximately £1.97 million (or approximately $2.45 million);

 

·       whether Mr. Bengough, his affiliates and/or other parties in any way pressured or otherwise improperly influenced BTG to lower the multiple between the time that the prior "final" valuation report was provided to the parties and the issuance of the final Valuation Report;

 

·       why the final Valuation Report did not account for, and the Final Sale Price is substantially lower than, Mr. Ellin’s good faith offer made to Mr. Bengough in 2016 to buy his 50% interest in OCHL for a purchase price of $4,000,000 (thereby valuating KOKO for at least $8,000,000), subject to execution of a definitive acquisition agreement and related due diligence review; and

 

·       why the final Valuation Report did not account for, and the Final Sale Price is substantially lower than, the $5.5 million good faith offer obtained by Mr. Bengough from an independent third party in November 2015 to purchase the KoKo Shares from the Company (thereby valuating KOKO for at least $11,000,000), as presented by Mr. Bengough to the Court in his sworn testimony in June 2016, as part of his injunction application.

 

Accordingly, our management is incredibly disappointed by the final Valuation amount and process and believes that the Valuation Report does not fairly present the value of KOKO (and the KoKo Shares). We are extremely disappointed by BTG’s efforts or lack thereof to verify the information presented to it and what it believes to be lack of good faith by certain parties.

 

In light of the above, we intend to pursue claims against (i) Mr. Bengough, his affiliates and officers and employees of OCL for (among other things) breaches of the Settlement Agreement arising from their involvement in the settlement process and lack of good faith efforts in providing information to BTG, (ii) BTG for (among other things) reckless disregard of material information, and therefore, whether the Valuation process should be invalidated entirely, and (iii) Hugh Doherty and Laurence Seymour, as former employees of Mint Group Holdings Limited and shareholders of OCL (from whom we purchased their interests in 2014 as part of the acquisition of the KoKo Shares), and any other parties that may have been otherwise involved in the Valuation process. We intend to further evaluate whether any of the parties to the Settlement Agreement or the Valuation process engaged in any other improper activity and/or were subject to a conflict of interests.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

In addition to other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section captioned “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on July 19, 2016, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or results of operations.

 

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

 

Issuance of Unregistered Securities

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2016, we entered into securities purchase agreements with certain accredited investors, pursuant to which we sold an aggregate of 50,000 units of our securities at a purchase price of $2.50 per unit for $125,000 in cash proceeds. Each unit consisted of one share of our common stock and a warrant to purchase 0.5 (one-half) share of our common stock, exercisable for a period of three years from the date of original issuance at an exercise price of $0.01 per share.

 

During the three months ended December 31, 2016, we issued 288,174 shares of our common stock valued at $480,962 to various consultants for services provided to us.

During the three months ended December 31, 2016, we issued 400,000 shares of our common stock upon exercise of 400,000 warrants at exercise price of $0.005 to $0.01 per share, resulting in net proceeds to us of $2,850.

 

Securities reported above were issued in reliance on the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D promulgated thereunder and involved a transaction by an issuer not involving any public offering.

 

Purchases of Equity Securities by the Issuer and Affiliated Purchasers

 

None.

 

Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities.

 

On December 31, 2014, we converted accounts payable into a Senior Promissory Note (the “Note”) in the aggregate principal amount of $242,498. The Note bears interest at 6% per annum and interest is payable on a quarterly basis commencing March 31, 2015 or we may elect that the amount of such interest be added to the principal sum outstanding under this Note. The payables arose in connection with professional services rendered by attorneys for us prior to and through December 31, 2014, and the Note had an original maturity date of December 31, 2015, which was extended to June 30, 2016 or such later date as the lender may agree to in writing. As of the date of this Quarterly Report, the Note has not been extended and is currently in default. As of December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, $273,172 and $262,040 of principal, which includes $30,674 and $19,542 of accrued interest, respectively, were outstanding under the Note.
