RISK FACTORS

This offering involves a high degree of risk.  You should carefully consider the risks described below and the other information in this prospectus, including our financial statements and the notes to those statements, before you purchase our common stock.  The risks and uncertainties described below are those that we currently believe may materially affect our company.  Additional risks and uncertainties may also impair our business operations.  If the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be seriously harmed, the trading price of our common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment.

Our business is subject to numerous risks. We caution you that the following important factors, among others, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf in filings with the SEC, press releases, communications with investors and oral statements. Any or all of our forward-looking statements in this prospectus and in any other public statements we make may turn out to be wrong. They can be affected by inaccurate assumptions we might make or by known or unknown risks and uncertainties. Many factors mentioned in the discussion below will be important in determining future results. Consequently, no forward-looking statement can be guaranteed. Actual future results may vary materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. There can be no assurances that our assets may not become impaired in the future. You are advised to consult any further disclosure we make in our reports filed with the SEC.

Risks Relating to Our Business

We incurred a net loss from operations for the last three fiscal years and for the nine month period ended November 30, 2010.  We cannot assure you that we will ever be profitable.

Our net loss from operations has increased for each of the last three fiscal years, from $3,149,582 at February 29, 2008 to $6,574,960 at February 28, 2010.  For the nine months ended November 30, 2010, our net loss from operations was $6,521,881 and we had negative cash flows of $4,796,666.  Our ability to generate positive cash flows from operations and net income is dependent, among other things, on the acceptance of our products in the marketplace, market conditions, cost control, and our ability to raise capital on acceptable terms.  The financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of these uncertainties.  Furthermore, developing and expanding our business will require significant additional capital and other expenditures.  Accordingly, if we are not able to increase our revenue, then we may never achieve or sustain profitability.

Even though we recently completed a $9 million financing, we are likely to need additional financing from time-to-time in order to continue our operations.  Financing may not be available to us when we need it.

Although we recently completed a $9 million financing, we anticipate that, in the future, we may need additional financing to continue our operations.  Financing may not be available to us on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, when we need it.  There is no assurance that we will be successful in raising additional capital or that the proceeds of any future financings will be sufficient to meet our future capital needs.

An impairment in the carrying value of goodwill or other assets could negatively affect our results of operations and net worth.

           Pursuant to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we are required to annually assess our goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets to determine if they are impaired. In addition, interim reviews must be performed whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred. If the testing performed indicates that impairment has occurred, we are required to record a non-cash impairment charge for the difference between the carrying value of the goodwill or other intangible assets and the implied fair value of the goodwill or other intangible assets in the period the determination is made. Disruptions to our business, end market conditions and protracted economic weakness, unexpected significant declines in operating results, divestitures and market capitalization declines may result in additional charges for goodwill and other asset impairments. We have significant intangible assets, including goodwill with an indefinite life, which are susceptible to valuation adjustments as a result of changes in such factors and conditions. We assess the potential impairment of goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets on an annual basis, as well as when interim events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. We assess definite lived intangible assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

 
9

 
           Our 2010 annual impairment test indicated no impairment of our goodwill or intangible assets.  Although our analysis regarding the fair values of the goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets indicates that they exceed their respective carrying values, materially different assumptions regarding the future performance of our businesses or significant declines in our stock price could result in goodwill impairment losses. Specifically, an unanticipated deterioration in revenues and gross margins generated by our Ad Life mobile marketing business segment could trigger future impairment in that segment.  We also evaluate other assets on our balance sheet whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be recoverable. Materially different assumptions regarding the future performance of our businesses could result in significant asset impairment losses.

The trading price of our common stock is subject to wide fluctuations.  We are also subject to the “penny stock rules”.  Both of these factors make any investment in our securities risky.

The trading price of our common stock is, and it may continue to be, subject to wide fluctuations in response to business or other factors, many of which are beyond our control.  As long as the trading price of our common shares is below $5 per share, the trading of our common shares will be subject to the “penny stock” rules.  Both of these factors make any investment in our securities risky.

We had management changes beginning in June 2010.  We cannot assure you that our new management has the ability to function as a team.

In June 2010 our Chief Executive Officer was replaced and since that date other officers and directors have resigned or been replaced.  There can be no assurance that our new management team will function together successfully to implement our business strategy.  Our performance is dependent on the services of our management as well as on our ability to recruit, retain and motivate other key employees in the fields of engineering, marketing and finance.

Future advertising and competition in the mobile device market may render our technology obsolete.  If that were to happen, it would have a material, adverse affect on our business and results of operations.

Newer technology may render our technology obsolete which would have a material, adverse affect on our business and results of operations.  We may also be required to collaborate with third parties to develop our products and may not be able to do so on a timely and cost-effective basis, if at all.

Information technology, network and data security risks could harm our business.

Our business faces security risks.  Our failure to adequately address these risks could have an adverse effect on our business and reputation.  Computer viruses, break-ins, or other security problems could lead to misappropriation of proprietary information and interruptions, delays, or cessation in service to our customers.

We rely on third parties to provide services to us.  If we were to lose the services of these providers, we may not be able to find other providers who are as cost effective.  This could harm our business and our results of operations.

We rely on certain technology services provided to us by third parties, and there can be no assurance that these third party service providers will be available to us in the future on acceptable commercial terms or at all.  If we were to lose one or more of these service providers, we may not be able to replace them in a cost effective manner, or at all.  This could harm our business and our results of operations.

We must invest in technological innovation in order to stay competitive.  If we fail to make investments in technological innovations, our business and results of operations could be adversely affected.

If we fail to invest sufficiently in research and product development, then our products could become less attractive to potential customers, which could have a material adverse affect on our results of operations and financial condition.

 
10

 
New laws or regulations could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

A number of laws and regulations may be adopted with respect to the Internet or other mobile phone services covering issues such as user privacy, “indecent” materials, freedom of expression, pricing, content and quality of products and services, taxation, advertising, intellectual property rights and information security. Adoption of any such laws or regulations might impact our ability to deliver increasing levels of technological innovation and will likely add to the cost of making our products, which would adversely affect our results of operations.

Risks Relating to Ownership of Our Securities

Our common stock is considered a “penny stock”.  The application of the “penny stock” rules to our common stock could limit the trading and liquidity of our common stock, adversely affect the market price of our common stock and increase the transaction costs to sell those shares.

Our common stock is a “low-priced” security or “penny stock” under rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer’s duties in selling the stock, the customer’s rights and remedies and certain market and other information.  Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer’s financial situation, investment experience and objectives.  Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer, obtain specific written consent from the customer, and provide monthly account statements to the customer.  The effect of these restrictions will likely decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, will decrease liquidity of our common stock and will increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.

The stock market in general has experienced volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of companies.  These broad fluctuations may be the result of unscrupulous practices that may adversely affect the price of our stock, regardless of our operating performance.

Stockholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093 dated April 17, 1991, the market for penny stocks has suffered from patterns of fraud and abuse.  Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses.  The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

We do not expect to pay dividends for the foreseeable future, and we may never pay dividends.  Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

We currently intend to retain any future earnings to support the development of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future.  Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our board of directors after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time.  In addition, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited by Delaware state law.  Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize a return on their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

Limitations on director and officer liability and our indemnification of officers and directors may discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director.

Article Eight of our Certificate of Incorporation states that our directors shall not be personally liable to us or any stockholder for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for any matter in respect of which such director shall be liable under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or shall be liable because the director (1) shall have breached his duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (2) shall have acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or, in failing to act, shall have acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or (3) shall have derived an improper personal benefit.  Article Eight further states that the liability of our directors shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended.  These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing suit against a director for breach of fiduciary duty and may reduce the likelihood of derivative litigation brought by stockholders on our behalf against a director.

The Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board is a quotation system, not an issuer listing service, market or exchange.  Therefore, buying and selling stock on the OTC Bulletin Board is not as efficient as buying and selling stock through an exchange.  As a result, it may be difficult for you to sell your common stock or you may not be able to sell your common stock for an optimum trading price.

The Over the Counter Bulletin Board (the “OTCBB”) is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last sale prices and volume limitations in over-the-counter securities.  Because trades and quotations on the OTCBB involve a manual process, the market information for such securities cannot be guaranteed.  In addition, quote information, or even firm quotes, may not be available.  The manual execution process may delay order processing and intervening price fluctuations may result in the failure of a limit order to execute or the execution of a market order at a significantly different price.  Execution of trades, execution reporting and the delivery of legal trade confirmations may be delayed significantly.  Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.

When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTCBB, volatility of prices may increase and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information.  Lower trading volumes in a security may result in a lower likelihood of an individual’s orders being executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price one was quoted by the OTCBB at the time of the order entry.  Orders for OTCBB securities may be canceled or edited like orders for other securities.  All requests to change or cancel an order must be submitted to, received and processed by the OTCBB.  Due to the manual order processing involved in handling OTCBB trades, order processing and reporting may be delayed, and an individual may not be able to cancel or edit his order.  Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of common stock at the optimum trading prices.

The dealer’s spread (the difference between the bid and ask prices) may be large and may result in substantial losses to the seller of securities on the OTCBB if the common stock or other security must be sold immediately.  Further, purchasers of securities may incur an immediate “paper” loss due to the price spread.  Moreover, dealers trading on the OTCBB may not have a bid price for securities bought and sold through the OTCBB.  Due to the foregoing, demand for securities that are traded through the OTCBB may be decreased or eliminated.

We expect volatility in the price of our common stock, which may subject us to securities litigation resulting in substantial costs and liabilities and diverting management’s attention and resources.

The market for our common stock may be characterized by significant price volatility when compared to seasoned issuers, and we expect that our share price will be more volatile than a seasoned issuer for the indefinite future.  In the past, plaintiffs have often initiated securities class action litigation against a company following periods of volatility in the market price of its securities.  We may in the future be a target of similar litigation.  Securities litigation could result in substantial costs and liabilities and could divert management’s attention from our day-to-day operations and consume resources, such as cash.

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

The following discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition for the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 and February 29, 2008 and the nine month period ended November 30, 2010 should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and the notes to those financial statements that are included elsewhere in this prospectus.

OVERVIEW

Founded in 1999, we provide strategic services and mobile technology to leading consumer and healthcare brands. We were formerly known as Modavox, Inc. and changed our name to Augme Technologies, Inc. in February 2010. Augme owns the “Method and System for Adding Function to a Webpage” portfolio of patents, which cover technical processes and methods that are an indispensable component of behavioral targeting – the automatic provision of customized content to individuals based on information such as past web activity, personal preferences, geography, or demographic data. Augme’s AD LIFE™ mobile marketing technology platform allows marketers, brands, and agencies the ability to plan, create, test, deploy, and track mobile marketing programs. Through the use of consumer response tags (CRTs) such as 2D codes, UPC codes, SMS, and image recognition, AD LIFE™ facilitates consumer brand interaction and the ability to track and analyze campaign results. Using its own patented device-detection and proprietary mobile content adaptation software, AD LIFE™ solves the mobile marketing industry problem of disparate operating systems, device types, and on-screen mobile content rendering. Augme also provides business to consumer utilities including national mobile couponing solutions, strategic mobile healthcare tools, custom mobile application development, and consumer data tracking and analytics.  In addition to AD LIFE™, Augme owns and licenses the digital broadcast platform BOOMBOX®. Augme is headquartered in New York City.

Augme Technologies, Inc.™, Augme™, AD LIFE™, AD SERVE™ and the Augme logo are trademarks of Augme Technologies, Inc.

In 2009, we initiated a comprehensive business growth strategy aimed at fully leveraging the value of our technology and patent portfolio by accelerating the advanced development of technology platforms that apply the most valuable aspects of the patents.

In an effort to support our new business strategy, and in conjunction with the repositioning of other corporate assets earlier in 2009, Augme executed an Asset Purchase Agreement, effective January 1, 2010, to dispose of certain tangible and intangible assets and certain liabilities and to transfer certain obligations related to our Internet radio services.  This transaction transferred the business operations of our Internet radio services to World Talk Radio, LLC, an Arizona based limited liability company (“WTR”) that is owned and operated by VoiceAmerica.

The disposition of the Internet radio operations resulted in a reduction in our expenses, enabling management to focus all available resources on the corporate strategy defined in 2009 that includes an expanded IP licensing structure as well as supporting the development and further commercialization of marketing driven technologies.  Furthermore, as part of the strategy to streamline operations and to create non-encumbered revenues to support growth businesses, we will receive a perpetual royalty as a percentage of gross revenue generated by WTR for as long as the new entity provides Internet radio services.


AD LIFE™ (“Augme Mobile”) is our interactive platform to provide marketers, brands and advertising agencies the ability to create, deliver, manage and track interactive marketing campaigns targeting mobile consumers through traditional print advertising channels.  AD LIFE™ continues to validate its growth plan of becoming the premier mobile marketing provider for the world’s largest consumer package goods (CPG) companies and their marketing agencies.  By integrating the AD LIFE™ platform within the marketing technology function of these formidable clients, we anticipate accelerated growth as the platform is utilized across multiple brands under a single master contract.  AD LIFE™ is experiencing significant momentum, evidenced by our success in acquiring Fortune 500 CPGs as clients and some of the most common household brands as clients.  Our websites are located at www.augmemobile.com and www.augme.com and include a complete overview of our technology.  Information on our websites is not a part of this prospectus.

We provide interactive media marketing platforms that enable marketers and advertising agencies to integrate brands, promotions, video, and other digital content through the Internet and mobile communications.  Our intuitive new media marketing platforms give companies the control they need to quickly create, deploy and measure rich-media, interactive marketing campaigns across all networks and devices.  We believe our integrated, easy-to-use, end-to-end platform is the most extensive mobile marketing and advertising campaign management platform in the industry.  Campaigns built on our marketing platforms condense the customer loyalty cycle by delivering personalized brand experience to customers where they work, play and live.

Our AD LIFE™ platform enables Internet video broadcasting, Internet advertising, and mobile marketing.  AD LIFE™ provides marketers, brands, and advertising agencies the ability to create, deliver, manage, and track interactive marketing campaigns aimed at mobile consumers regardless of network, operating system, or device type.  Our products and services include: website mobilization, content rendering, mobile campaign management, ad serving, data analytics and tracking, as well as content distribution, among other services.

Currently, we generate revenue by providing mobile marketing services through our AD LIFE™ platform.  The majority of our sales are driven by individual campaign fees, which usually include various levels of recurring fees throughout each campaign’s term.  Although we generated revenues of approximately $3.0 million during our fiscal year ending 2011, we believe that progress made with acquiring a marquee list of customers and developing valuable partnerships will drive significant future growth.  We are currently forecasting revenues in excess of $16.0 million during the next twelve months, based on an estimate that approximately 50% of current bookings will convert into revenues within that period of time.  We are currently doing business with three of the world’s top ten pharmaceutical companies that have combined net revenues of over $150 billion.  Some of our other clients include three Fortune 100 companies, six Fortune 200 companies and three Global Fortune 500 companies.  However, even though we have expanded our list of clients, we cannot guarantee that our results during the next twelve months will meet our forecasts.

Our Solution

Our Augme Mobile Marketing division offers AD LIFE™, an interactive platform to provide marketers, brands, and advertising agencies the ability to create, deliver, manage, and track interactive marketing campaigns targeting mobile consumers through print advertising channels.  AD LIFE™ offers the only end-to-end mobile solution that allows brands a scalable, centralized execution and reporting platform.  More importantly, AD LIFE™ solves numerous mobile complications using the only content rendering and device detection patents in the industry.  Our patents allow us to provide our clients a full suite of mobile marketing services, thus providing an end-to-end mobile campaign management software system.  Our AD LIFE™ platform delivers the following benefits to our customers:

 
·
Device recognition technology formats traditional digital assets into content that can be viewed on virtually any mobile device regardless of operating system or network provider;

 
·
Our open architecture offers the widest variety of consumer response tags (“CRTs”) in the market today, including SMS, 2D codes, logo, and audio recognition, these CRTs allow consumers to use their mobile devices to easily and instantly access on-demand digital content;

 
·
Ability to measure campaign effectiveness using data analysis gathered and processed using proprietary techniques, these key metrics and results of client campaigns including demographic and behavioral data;
 
 

 
 
16

 
 
·
Integration with brands’ existing ERP and CRM systems provides the ability to optimize campaigns and fulfillment;

 
·
Our software platform enables our customers to implement mobile campaigns in a short time frame, typically 10 to 20 days and is significantly more cost effective than sourcing technology;

 
·
Provides brands with centralized database and access to over 120 million consumer data records.

Additionally, our platform allows our customers the ability to deliver content to any mobile network, operating system or device, regardless of how the device landscape changes.  This ensures that brands have the capacity to reach 100% of any intended marketplace for their messaging, whether through text, quality resolution code, or other means.

Our Strategy

Our strategy is to be the leading provider of mobile marketing and advertising solutions globally across multiple media types and channels.  The principal elements of our strategy are to:

 
·
capitalize upon our existing patented technology to further develop new product innovations and licensing opportunities;

 
·
deepen our existing and add new strategic customer relationships as our markets expand;

 
·
enhance our platform by addressing technology shifts in mobile devices and computing;

 
·
continue global expansion and pursue strategic partnerships and acquisitions;

 
·
focus on earned versus paid media using engagement-based techniques and behavioral targeting;

 
·
continue to transition and proliferate into a software-as-a-service, (“SaaS”) business model.

We believe our mobile marketing solutions, together with our patents which are critical to behavioral targeting, will enable us to pioneer a new era in marketing and new media communications with Internet applications and services for targeted consumers and communities worldwide.

Critical Accounting Policies

General
 
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S.  The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and expenses.  We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable 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.  Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Upon completion and execution of a Master Service Agreement or Statement of Work (“SOW”) revenue is booked into the accounting system.  If the SOW is to be completed in 1 year, the entry is debit accounts receivable and credit deferred revenue in current assets and liabilities, respectively.  If the SOW extends over a year then the short-term portion, less than a year, is booked as short term and the long-term portion or over a year is booked as such.

 
17

 
Revenue is recognized and reclassified from deferred revenue to current period income depending on the type of revenue.  Implementation and set up fees are booked upon signature or upon mobilization to start work on the project.  Campaign fees are incurred monthly and recognized over the term of the contract.  Software license fees are recognized over the term of the SOW on a prorated basis.

Measuring Fair Value
 
In September 2006, the FASB issued ASC 820 that defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.  The provisions of ASC 820 were effective January 1, 2008.  The provisions delayed the effective date of ASC 820 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually), until fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008.

As defined in ASC 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price).  The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique.  These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable.  The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observation of those inputs.  ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value.  The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined by ASC 820 are as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date.  Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.  Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.

Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date.  Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies.  These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures.  Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.  Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.

Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources.  These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

As required by ASC 820, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

Results of Operations

The discussion of the results of operations compares the nine month period ended November 30, 2010 with the nine month period ended November 30, 2009, and is not necessarily indicative of the results, which may be expected for any subsequent period.  Our prospects should be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties encountered by companies in similar positions.  We may not be successful in addressing these risks and difficulties.

Nine months ended November 30, 2010 as compared to 2009

For the nine months ended November 30, 2010, revenues were $1,858,208 compared to $149,334 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009, an increase of 1144%.  The increase in overall revenues is due to increased customer demand for our Ad Life™ platform.  Deferred revenue increased to $409,090 for the period ended November 30, 2010 from $234,036 for the period ended February 28, 2010.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $6,780,777 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 compared with $3,297,252 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009, a change of $3,483,525, or 106%.  Professional services costs comprise a major percentage of the costs in the approximate amount of $1,718,783 in the aggregate. Production and service delivery costs were $846,387 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 compared to $199,110 during the nine months ended November 30, 2009 reflecting higher sales volume and higher overall costs related to telecommunications, higher cost of hosting our content as well as higher personnel costs associated with increased staffing and compensation levels.
 
Approximately $2,246,655 of the total selling, general, and administrative expenses for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 was non-cash in nature as compared to approximately $605,172 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009, and consisted of the fair value accounting for stock options and certain expenses that were paid with shares of our common stock.

The change in these expenses primarily consisted of $1,641,483 of increased non-cash stock option expense and $1,842,042 due to increased staffing and employee benefits and outside contracting costs associated with an increased level of product development.  Of these administrative expenses, $1,219,658 of the increase is related to increased staffing and compensation levels in sales and general management, and  $622,384 in professional fees is related to investor relations, accounting, legal, software development, and other consulting fees and other expenses.

 
Depreciation and amortization expense was $752,925 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 compared with $641,603 in the comparable 2009 period.  Amortization expense increased to $520,713 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 compared to $401,608 for the comparable 2009 period.  Depreciation expense for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 decreased to $232,212 compared to $239,995 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009.  The net result of changes in depreciation and amortization relate to the increased capitalization of internal software and for the intangible assets related to the New Aug, LLC and Radio Pilot acquisitions.

Interest income was $23 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 versus interest expense of $980 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009.

The loss on derivative instruments was $0 for the nine months ended November 30, 2010 compared to a loss of $389,864 for the nine months ended November 30, 2009.

For the nine months ended November 30, 2010, the Company incurred a net loss of $6,521,858 compared to a net loss of $4,979,030 in the comparable prior year period.  The $1,542,828 increase in the net loss is a result of increased direct expenses and increased selling, general and administrative expenses including non-cash expenses and professional fees, as described above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working capital, which is defined as current assets less current liabilities, increased by $315,638 to a working capital surplus of $663,969 as of November 30, 2010 compared to a working capital surplus of $348,331 as of February 28, 2010.  We have utilized our cash resources from the beginning of the year to fund operations.  This was offset by signed investor agreements resulting in a substantial increase in receivables, and also decreased current liabilities through the recognition of deferred revenues.  These results served to increase our working capital surplus.

 
19

 
As of November 30, 2010, we had net change in cash and cash equivalents of $959,989 during the nine months ended November 30, 2010.

Based on the amount of capital we have raised since November 30, 2009, including the offering we completed on February 14, 2011, and the potential to raise additional capital from the exercise of warrants and options and the sale of additional common stock if required, we believe that we will have enough cash flow from operations and financing activities to support our business for at least the next twelve months.  We also believe that we have the capital necessary to implement our growth strategy in our core businesses.  However, no assurances can be made that we will have adequate capital or be successful in raising additional financing on terms that are acceptable to the Company or at all if our future financial results are not in line with our expectations.

Fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 as compared to February 28, 2009

For the year ended February 28, 2010, gross revenues were $339,901 an increase of $2,574 over 2009 revenues of $337,327.  The increase in revenues related to revenues from the AD LIFE™ division, which resulted from our acquisition of New Aug, LLC completed on July 14, 2009.  This increase in revenues was partially offset by lower revenues from our AD SERVE™ division, which were in the process of being repositioned in the market and went through a restructuring of the sales department during fiscal 2010.

Cost of revenues primarily consisted of salaries and wages of our client services and service delivery personnel and costs to host our platforms and deliver content to our clients.  Our cost of revenues for the year ended February 28, 2010 was $492,838 as compared to $215,412 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009, an increase of $277,426.  This increase in costs related primarily to the addition of the AD LIFE™ division as we established the necessary infrastructure in order to support our increasing customer base in this area.

Selling general and administrative expenses primarily consist of wages and benefits for sales, administrative, development personnel and outside development expenses, finance and accounting personnel, professional fees, stock option expense, expenses to market our products, and other corporate expenses.  For the year ended February 28, 2010 our selling, general and administrative expenses were $5,580,743 as compared to $3,271,453 for the year ended February 28, 2009, an increase of $2,309,290.  The increase primarily consisted of a $951,762 non-cash expense increase related to stock compensation, an increase of $923,496 in salaries and wages from $634,582 in fiscal year 2009 to $1,558,078, primarily due to an increase in personnel related to the acquisition of New Aug, LLC and an increase in professional fees of $237,007, from $1,084,821 in fiscal year 2009 to $1,321,828 in fiscal year 2010.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $841,280 in 2010 from $541,950 in 2009 due principally to the increase in software amortization expense arising from the software developed internally and the amortization of intangible assets associated with the acquisition of New Aug, LLC in July 2009.

There was no impairment on goodwill recorded for the year ended February 28, 2010, compared to $729,000 for the year ended February 28, 2009.

In fiscal year 2009, we recorded a lease termination expense of $489,845 associated with the termination of an office lease in San Diego.  This payment was made in the form of the Company’s common stock.

Interest expense, net of interest income was $1,343 compared to net interest income of $9,221 in the prior year.

Loss from discontinued operations was $1,466,376 in fiscal year 2010 compared to a loss of $424,398.  This increase consisted primarily of the loss on the sale of discontinued operations that was recorded in fiscal 2010 of $878,162.

 
20

 
Our net loss was $8,378,499 in 2010 compared to a net loss of $5,325,510 in 2009 for the reasons as explained above.

Fiscal year ended February 28, 2009 as compared to February 29, 2008

For the year ended February 28, 2009, gross revenues were $337,327 as compared to revenues of $743,044 in fiscal 2008, a decrease of $405,717.  This decrease was due to decreases in revenue for the Interactive Divisions and the increased effort of our strategic focus of our patent and Intellectual Property strategy.  As a result, we have extended the reach of our Interactive Products Enterprise Communication Software which is primarily our BoomBox® Video product and related hosting.  In the fourth quarter of 2009 we finalized an internal control policy related to collections that required a write off of certain accounts that had been in the reserve for doubtful accounts for more than year.

Cost of revenues for fiscal 2009 were $215,412 compared to $563,414 for fiscal 2008, a decrease of $348,002. This decrease in costs was due to lower revenues, which reduce our internal delivery costs.  Also in fiscal 2009, we renegotiated contracts with content management and hosting vendors in order to decrease costs

Selling general and administrative expenses for fiscal year 2009 were $3,271,453 as compared to $2,945,525 for fiscal year 2008, an increase of $325,928.  This increase consists primarily of a $651,749 increase in non-cash stock compensation expense, a $284,851 loss on a settlement and an increase of $214,947 in salaries and benefits, from $419,635 in fiscal year 2008 to $634,582 in fiscal year 2009.  These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $370,723 in professional fees from $1,455,544 in fiscal year 2008 as compared to $1,084,821 in fiscal year 2009.

Depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $541,950 in fiscal year 2009 from $383,687 in fiscal year 2008 due principally to the increase in software amortization expense arising from the software developed internally and acquired externally during fiscal 2008 and 2007.

Impairment in the amount of $729,000 was recorded for the year ended February 28, 2009 on the goodwill related to an acquisition.  No such expense was recorded for fiscal year 2008.
 
In fiscal year 2009, we recorded a lease termination expense of $489,845 associated with the termination of an office lease in San Diego.  This payment was made in the form of the Company’s common stock.

Interest income, net of interest expense, was $9,221in 2009 compared to net interest expense of $153,995 in the prior year.

The loss from discontinued operations in fiscal year 2009 was $424,398 as compared to income from discontinued operations of $395,221 in fiscal year 2008.

The net loss was $5,325,510 in 2009 as compared to $3,304,005 in 2008 for the reasons as explained above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

During fiscal year 2010, we raised $5,450,960 of capital through the issuance of unregistered shares of common stock.

As of February 28, 2010, we had cash balances of $1,617,573 and working a capital surplus of $348,331.  Due to the sustained and substantial progress in the procurement of necessary working capital required to meet operating and general corporate expenditures, we believed that we would have enough cash flow from operations and from financing sources to continue for the next twelve months.  Specifically, we had substantive discussions with warrant holders and other prospective financing sources which led us to believe that we would be able to obtain the capital necessary to not only maintain our operations, but also to develop and implement our growth strategy in our core businesses, including implementing a vigorous effort to protect our intellectual property.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our exposure to market risk relates primarily to our future cash needs and the effect that changes in economy reflect in the capital markets.  Historically, we have had access to capital in the equity markets on an acceptable basis.

As of March 16, 2011 we did not hold any derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.  The primary objective of our investment activities is the preservation of principal while maximizing investment income and minimizing risk. As of March 16, 2011, we had approximately $11.3 million in cash and cash equivalents including short-term investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less.  Due to the short duration of these financial instruments, we do not expect that a change in interest rates would result in any material loss to our investment portfolio.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS
ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

On August 25, 2010, we dismissed MaloneBailey, LLP (“MaloneBailey”) as our independent auditors.  This action was approved by the audit committee of our board of directors and ratified by our board.  MaloneBailey served as our independent registered accounting firm for our fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009.

The reports of MaloneBailey on our financial statements as of February 28, 2010 and 2009 and for the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles other than an explanatory paragraph as to a going concern in 2009.

Prior to its dismissal, there were no disagreements with MaloneBailey on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of MaloneBailey would have caused it to make reference to this subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report, nor were there any “reportable events” as such term as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

On September 3, 2010, we engaged Freedman & Goldberg as our independent registered accounting firm.  During our two most recent fiscal years and any subsequent interim period prior to the engagement of Freedman & Goldberg, neither we nor anyone on our behalf consulted with Freedman & Goldberg, regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either contemplated or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a “disagreement” or a “reportable event.”

Intellectual Property Summary

Augme’s patent portfolio that is described below is foundational to the methods utilized in two primary types of Mobile Internet operations providing:
1. Device detection and mobile content rendering


2. Customized content & mobile advertising delivery


























Central to the growth being experienced and projected within Augme’s marketing technology businesses is the fact that the Internet enabled “Smartphone”
 has become a leading driver of growth in Internet traffic and utilization by consumers. Due to that explosive growth, publishers are refocusing to reach consumers through mobile websites and initiatives. One example of the effect of adding computers to cellular phones is the phenomenal growth of Apple’s mobile software applications market in addition to those “application” communities that have been cultivated by Google with its Android, Blackberry, and Microsoft as well as others. This market has been brought about by the presence of the foundational mobile broadband Internet infrastructure and mobile device advancements. In fact, the cellular phone has been augmented with mobile computers complete with processors, Internet browsers, operating systems and even software applications. The problem that Augme’s products provide real time mobile customized content delivery, enabling richer and more functional content to reach end users. The additional claims of patents we were issued in 2010 and the investment in our enforcement efforts during 2010 have set the stage for both our 2011 Enterprise Software as a Service (SaaS) licensing strategy and non-litigation license enforcement strategy.   The hyper-growth in the mobile marketing space, the rapid consumer adoption of “Smartphone”, continued focus on intellectual property expansion, and IP enforcement are 2011 initiatives already underway.

We believe that growth in the mobile Internet market space may enhance our patent enforcement initiative because it has contributed to the creation of an emerging group of companies that have developed revenue streams that are dependent on technology that we believe is infringing on Augme’s patents. Augme’s inventions solved device, infrastructure and customized content distribution problems facing Internet publishers in 1999. Now in
2011, well within the coverage of the patent protection, the identical problems are repeating in the mobile Internet and we believe that Augme’s inventions again present the solution for mobile Internet publishers and service providers. We believe that the growing number of market entries by highly capitalized companies and the highly sought after massive consumer audience emerging on the mobile Internet makes it likely that infringement of our patents is occurring. Companies that implement
and monetize their solutions may have developed revenue streams subject to licensing and infringement damages by Augme.

The establishment of “Smartphones”, tablets, and mobile devices as the leading growth driver of Internet utilization by consumers has given rise to mobile Internet web pages that we believe have embedded Augme’s patented system. Augme’s system is used to achieve compatible content delivery to a wide array of mobile devices over mobile Internet networks as well as consumer targeted content delivery. In order to accommodate the various screen sizes, operating systems and Internet connectivity
levels of mobile users, we believe that publishers use Augme’s invention to embed a small universally compatible first code module into the mobile webpage. The subsequent method patented by Augme allows for a customized service response targeted to an individual mobile user device, mobile Internet network environment, and preferences. We believe that Augme’s system is the state-of-art solution for both the mobile and Internet publishers.

Augme's solutions are supported by its intellectual property portfolio, and the Company now owns four patents and has additional patents pending with the United States Patent & Trademark Office ("USPTO"). The patents contain a broad range of claims covering the Company's proprietary technologies and products. Augme now also owns six trademarks protecting the names of its products and identity in the marketplace.

Augme owns the “Method and System for Adding Function to a Webpage” portfolio of patents.  The Augme patents teach technical methods/systems enabling the dynamic customization of Web pages based upon user (Web site visitor) information (such as browser type, geographic location, behavioral data, etc.).  US Patent No. 6,594,691 (the “691 Patent”) was issued on July 15, 2003, and is titled “Method and System for Adding Function to a Webpage.”  US. Patent No. 7,269,636 (the “636 Patent”) was issued on September 11, 2007, and is titled “Method and Code Module for Adding Function to a Webpage.” The ‘636 Patent is a continuation patent based on the ‘691 Patent and incorporates claims that reflect how concepts from the ‘691 Patent are implemented in state-of-the-art delivery infrastructure and delivery practices seen in the marketplace today.

US Patent No. 7,783,721 entitled "Method and Code Module for Adding Function to a Webpage” was issued August 24, 2010. The software device that is patented enables Internet and mobile websites to be delivered with customized content that is tailored to any end-user’s network-enabled device.  The customization being performed by the software device is achieved by automatically gathering information about the user’s device, browser and other information provided from the content of the Web page containing the patented technology.

US Patent No. 7,831,690 (the “690 Patent”) entitled "Appliance Metaphor for adding Media Function to a Web Page” was issued November 9, 2010.  This technology enables content targeting by publishers of Internet and mobile web destinations and adds content customization capability to a web page that allows any device, network appliance, or browser to receive an optimized service response automatically with a service delivery of a consumer targeted response formed by a server system and customized in response to information about a web page.

The claims of the '690 patent define Augme's technology that enables content targeting by publishers of Internet and mobile web destinations. The newly issued patent claims provide ownership of: technology that adds content customization capability to a web page; technology that allows any device, network appliance, or browser to receive an optimized service response automatically; and a service delivery of a consumer targeted response formed by a server system and customized in response to information about a web page. We intend to continue our efforts to monetize and enforce our intellectual property rights.

The Company believes that these issuances of these patents further establish Augme as the owner of foundational Internet content targeting technology. We believe these issuances provide further validation of our Company’s core technology and increase our patent claims in key new areas for our business operations and enforcement strategy. These new patents are being further assessed and maximized to contribute to the overall valuation of the Augme portfolio. Augme has focused on growing its intellectual property portfolio and managed in 2010 to double the size of our patent portfolio through a direct and measured effort. These new patented claims provide ownership of our technology inventions within the mobile network and Internet appliance applications.
 
The Augme patents teach a two-code-module system that enables any networked content to be customized based on end-user criteria. The Augme patents thus enable a single Webpage (traditional Internet and mobile Web) to have an infinite number of tailored service responses that allow Webpage visitors to receive content that is customized to the user’s unique computing environment, connectivity, bandwidth level, geographic location, gender, age, or any other information about the Web page visitor (targeting criteria) such as behavioral marketing data.  Augme’s two-code-module Web page customization process has widespread application in the fields of targeted advertising, e-commerce, mobile marketing/advertising and other customized content delivery operations.

Augme’s patented methods and systems use Web browsers that adhere to the standards for Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) and add function to a Web page through an easily distributed software code module.  The method and system deliver responses to client (computer user) browser requests that are customized based upon visitor information and preferences.  When a Webpage is downloaded, the technology automatically executes a first code module embedded in the Webpage.  The first code module issues a first command to retrieve a second code module, via a network connection, from a server system.  Then, a second code module is assembled based upon the visitor information.  Finally, the assembled second code module, with a service response, is returned to the visitor’s browser, where, upon execution, the response is rendered on the visitor’s processor platform (computer).

Augme’s patents have been cited on at least six occasions in third party filings with the U.S. Patent Office, including by Oracle, IBM, Sun Micro Systems and Hewlett Packard, in support of their own invention filings.

Augme believes that the methods and systems taught by its patents are being widely used in various Internet-based (including the mobile Web) industries and business verticals, including but not limited to “behavioral targeted advertising.”  Behavioral targeted advertising is the fastest-growing segment of Internet advertising, with expected growth from $575 million in 2007 to $3.8 billion in 2011. Internet advertising as a whole is expected to more than double from $21.7 billion in 2007 to $50.3 billion in 2011.

Augme is engaged in several legal disputes with companies which Augme alleges are infringing the Augme patent portfolio.  Currently pending patent infringement lawsuits and related matters are described in the section of this prospectus titled “Legal Proceedings”.

Augme’s patents are an integral and foundational component of Augme’s technology platforms and services as well as providing potential for attractive partnership opportunities with third parties who have been identified to license the technology within prescribed market verticals.  As Augme works to attain legal victories in currently pending patent infringement lawsuits, it is also pursuing certain strategic licensing arrangements with companies that Augme has identified as using Augme’s patented methods and processes.  In addition, Augme is obtaining organic licenses through Augme’s clients’ use of Augme’s core technology platforms – AD LIFE™ (mobile platform), Boombox® (video platform), and AD SERVE™ (ad-serving platform).  As part of these efforts, Augme’s Chief Technology Officer has prepared a study in conjunction with patent counsel detailing perceived use of the Augme patented methods and systems within the mobile marketing/advertising industry.

In an effort to support Augme’s future business strategy, and in conjunction with the repositioning of other corporate assets earlier in fiscal year 2010, Augme disposed of certain tangible and intangible assets and certain liabilities and transferred certain obligations related to Internet radio services. This transaction, effective December 31, 2009, transferred the business operations of our Internet radio services to World Talk Radio, LLC (“WTR”), an Arizona based limited liability company owned and operated by VoiceAmerica.

The disposition of the Internet radio operations resulted in an immediate reduction in expenses. Furthermore, as part of the strategy to streamline operations and to create non-encumbered revenues to support growth businesses, we will receive a perpetual royalty as a percentage of gross revenue generated by WTR for as long as the new entity provides Internet radio services according to the following graded schedule:

 
(i)
January 1, 2010 through March 31, 2010 – 5% of gross revenue

 
(ii)
April 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010 – 10% of gross revenue

 
(iii)
July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2015 – 15% of gross revenue

 
(iii)
July 1, 2016 and after – 5% of gross revenue

With the disposition of the Internet radio operations, Augme now operates Augme Mobile Health. (“AMH”) and consumer packaged goods, (“CPG”) initiatives branded under “Augme” – derived from the verb “augment” to make something greater by adding to it. The Augme branded portfolio offers products and services based upon marketing driven technology platforms that enhance the delivery of marketing communications through intelligent distribution to all Internet-enabled devices. The current (FY2012) business strategy is primarily focused on generating near-term revenue from AD LIFE.  Meanwhile, AD SERVE has the potential to provide an incremental revenue stream for stand-alone ad provisioning and streaming media, yet more importantly they represent an opportunity to serve in a complementary role to add value through additional features and functions of AD LIFE™. We believe these revenue producing efforts together with our patents essential to behavioral targeting will enable us to pioneer a new era in marketing and new media communications with Internet applications and services for targeted consumers and communities worldwide.


AD LIFE - Mobile Marketing

AD LIFE is our interactive platform to provide marketers, brands and advertising agencies the ability to create, deliver, manage and track interactive marketing campaigns targeting mobile consumers through traditional print advertising channels.

Mobile phones are a way of life. There are over 240 million cell phone subscribers in the United States out of a total population of over 300 million. Each cell phone user is a “mobile consumer” – exposed to an average of over 80,000 ad impressions annually that could be augmented by interactive mobile marketing messages. Meanwhile, over $150 billion is spent in the US on traditional print marketing media across six major channels: magazine, point-of-purchase, newspaper, free standing inserts (“FSI”), out-of-home, and direct mail. Packaging also has become a recognized marketing medium, as consumer packaged goods companies are increasingly leveraging the package as a means to communicate with consumers.

 
25

 
Despite the proliferation of sophisticated mobile devices and the enormous marketing value promised by interacting directly with mobile consumers, marketers continue to struggle to find an easy, affordable, and effective way to fully integrate mobile into existing marketing and advertising campaigns. Augme solves this “mobile marketing puzzle” through a comprehensive platform that fully integrates all the tools and technologies required for traditional print media channels to deliver digital interactive marketing content on-demand to the mobile consumer.

For clients – including major consumer brands and their advertising agencies – AD LIFE augments advertising media with mobile interactivity to enhance and extend communication, persuasiveness, and effectiveness of existing campaigns. For mobile consumers, AD LIFE is an engine allowing them to respond to advertising by easily connecting to on-demand content and promotions (such as coupons, product information, web links, video/music downloads) printed in advertising media they see every day.

The competitive landscape for mobile marketing applications and services has historically been highly fragmented, comprised of mostly niche providers offering specific components of the technology and services required for the implementation of a complete mobile marketing campaign. Recently, we have seen noticeable progress by our mobile marketing competitors. Venture capital and private equity financing is aggressively moving into our space, bringing significant capital to consolidate small niche players into more comprehensive competitive threats. What was for a long time a very fragmented mobile marketing industry is quickly consolidating to create new and more formidable competitors. We believe AD LIFEmaintains a time-to-market advantage with our strategic vision, our integrated and comprehensive technology platform, and our sales strategy.  We are delivering service to some of the largest consumer product and pharmaceutical brands, and we continue to build out our channel partner strategy with media purveyors and ad agencies across multiple industries.

AD LIFE enables marketers, brands, and advertising agencies to easily create, deliver, manage, and track interactive mobile marketing campaigns through a comprehensive web portal with four fully integrated and forward thinking components.

Consumer Response: Turnkey tools to create and assign consumer response tags (“CRTs”) that allow consumers to use their mobile phone to easily and instantly access on-demand digital content. Augme Mobile’s open architecture offers the widest variety of CRTs in the market today, including SMS, 2D codes, logo, and audio recognition.

Content Formatting: While over 30% of Internet search is done via a mobile device, it has been estimated that only 2% of digital assets are formatted for proper viewing via a mobile device. The sophisticated device detection system in AD LIFE automatically renders existing digital assets for proper viewing and navigation on nearly any mobile device regardless of phone type, operating system, or mobile service provider.

Customer Relationship Management (CRM): Using data analysis gathered and processed using proprietary techniques, AD LIFE provides key metrics and results of client campaigns including demographic and behavioral data.

Promotional Partnerships: AD LIFE provides access to pre-negotiated and readily available branded content to complement existing promotions. These include rebates and coupons that operate through a partnership with one of the nation’s leading promotions transaction settlement providers, and many additional applications and services fully integrated with leading technology and service partners.

Our advanced, comprehensive, and fully integrated AD LIFE mobile platform drives revenue primarily through license fees, marketing campaign fees, and fees associated with certain add-on promotional applications in the platform. Additional revenue is generated by platform administration and professional service fees related to the mobilization of client content and implementation of marketing campaigns through the platform.

Employees

As of March 11, 2011, Augme had 48 employees, including executive management, sales (including channel management), client services, technology development and IT infrastructure management, technical administration and implementation, and reception. We outsource some of our core technology development, which is currently under a 12-month contract with a vendor. We have no labor union contracts and believe relations with our employees are satisfactory.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

Our headquarters are located at 43 West 24th Street, 11th Floor, in New York City, where we lease approximately 12,500 square feet of space for administrative, sales and client services personnel under a lease that expires in January 2012.  Additionally, we lease additional office space of approximately 2,600 square feet of office space in Tucson, Arizona for patent research and production personnel and approximately 8,452 square feet of office space in Atlanta, Georgia for sales, technical and production personnel.  These leases expire in July and June 2012, respectively.  The locations of these offices are 9070 South Rita Road, Suite 1550, Tucson, Arizona and 5 Concourse Parkway, 9th Floor, Atlanta, Georgia, respectively.

LEGAL MATTERS

In the normal course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings.  Except as stated below, we know of no pending or threatened legal proceeding to which we are or will be a party that, if successful, might result in a material adverse change in our business, properties or financial condition.

During 2010 we continued our patent enforcement actions as described below.

Tacoda, Inc.  In 2007, Augme filed a lawsuit against Tacoda, Inc. in the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, seeking damages for alleged infringement of Augme-owned U.S. Patent Nos. 6,594,691 (“Method and System for Adding Function to a Web Page”) and 7,269,636 (“Method and Code Module for Adding Function to a Web Page”).  The case is still unresolved.

AOL, LLC, Time Warner, Inc., and Platform-A, Inc.  On September 10, 2008, we filed a complaint against AOL, LLC in the U.S. District Court, Central District of California, seeking damages for alleged infringement of our trademark BOOMBOX RADIO.  On January 21, 2009, we filed a First Amended Complaint against AOL, LLC, Time Warner, Inc. and Platform-A, Inc., for trademark infringement relating to our mark BOOMBOX RADIO, and infringement of our U.S. Patent Nos. 6,594,691 and 7,269,636.  Pursuant to a court order dated April 14, 2009, the case was transferred to the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, so that our case against Tacoda, Inc. and this case could be adjudicated in the same court, since both cases involved the same patents.

Yahoo! Inc.  On November 16, 2009, Augme filed a Complaint against Yahoo! Inc. seeking damages for alleged infringement relating to our U.S. Patent Nos. 6,594,691 and 7,269,636, which patents relate to methods and systems for delivery of selected content from a network to a web page visitor.  The matter is currently pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, Case No. C-09-5386 EDL.  The remedies available to us, if successful, include an injunction prohibiting any infringing actions, an award of damages adequate to compensate us for the infringement, and costs of the action.

On November 12, 2010, Yahoo! filed a motion for summary judgment with the United States District Court for the Northern District of California.  On December 3, 2010, an order was issued by Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Spero denying the Yahoo! motion without prejudice.  On December 3, 2010, Yahoo! filed a Notice of Motion and Motion for Leave to File Amended Answer with Additional Counterclaims seeking damages for costs of defense and will full infringement and to join World Talk Radio, LLC as a Counterclaim Defendant.  Augme denies that any merit exists with respect to these counterclaims and will continue to pursue the prosecution of Yahoo!'s infringement against the Company’s patent claims.

BUSINESS EXPERIENCE DESCRIPTIONS

Paul R. Arena, Chief Executive Officer, Principal Financial Officer, Corporate Secretary and Director

Mr. Arena has served as a director and officer since June 2010.  Mr. Arena has over 28 years of investment and business experience. Prior to joining our Board, from February 2002 through March 2010, Mr. Arena served as a director of Geos Communications, Inc., (formerly i2 Telecom International, Inc.) where, he was the founder and at various times, he also served as Chairman of the Board until March 2010, Chief Financial Officer until August 2010, President until August 2008 and Chief Executive Officer until April 2009.  From May 2000 to present, he served as Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, President and owner of AIM Group, Inc., an investment holding company. Mr. Arena also founded and served in various executive capacities, including Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, at Cereus Technology Partners, Inc. and its subsidiaries (May 1991 to April 2000). We believe that Mr. Arena’s executive management experience with companies that do business over the Internet and background in financial business transactions makes him qualified to serve as a director.

Phillip C. Rapp, Jr., Chief Operations Officer

Mr. Rapp has held the position of Chief Operating Officer since August 2010. During the past 20 years, Mr. Rapp has been engaged in senior executive positions in the financial services and investment industry.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide an understanding of the compensation earned by each of our Named Executive Officers.

Total compensation for each of the Named Executive Officers is reviewed and approved annually by the Compensation Committee, the members of which are Mr. Devlin, Ms. Meyers and Mr. Wilson, none of whom has been an officer or employee of our Company.  The board of directors excuses Named Executive Officers who are also directors from meetings during which the Named Executive Officer’s compensation is discussed or voted upon, and each Named Executive Officer and director abstains from voting on any matter which effects him or her individually.

Compensation Philosophy

The objectives of the Company’s compensation program are to (1) attract, motivate, develop and retain top quality executives who will increase long-term stockholder value and (2) deliver competitive total compensation packages based upon the achievement of both Company and individual performance goals.  The Company expects its executives to balance the risks and related opportunities inherent in its industry and in the performance of his or her duties and to share the upside opportunity and the downside risks once actual performance is measured.

To achieve the above goals, the Compensation Committee has set forth a compensation program for its Named Executive Officers that is reviewed annually.  It includes the following elements:

base salary;
annual cash incentive bonuses;
share-based compensation; and
health and other benefits.

In order to maintain a competitive compensation program for our Named Executive Officers, the Compensation Committee, on an annual basis, performs the following: (a) reviews compensation practices to assure fairness, relevance, support of the strategic goals of the Company and contribution of the Named Executive Officer to the creation of long-term stockholder value, (b) considers the relevant mix of compensation based upon three components, each an important factor — base salary, annual or intermediate incentives and long-term compensation, including stock options and (c) implements a compensation plan that reasonably allocates a portion of the Named Executive Officer’s total compensation through incentives and other forms of longer-term compensation linked to Company and individual performance and the creation of stockholder value, including stock option awards and programs.

Factors Considered In Determining Compensation

The Compensation Committee reviews executive compensation levels for our Named Executive Officers on an annual basis to ensure that they remain competitive within the industry.  The overall value of the compensation package for a Named Executive Officer is determined by the Compensation Committee, in consultation with the board of directors.  The factors considered by the Compensation Committee include those related to both the overall performance of the Company and the individual performance of the Named Executive Officer.  Consideration is also given to comparable compensation data for individuals holding similarly responsible positions at other and peer group companies in determining appropriate compensation levels.

With respect to long-term incentive compensation to be awarded to Named Executive Officers, any such awards are granted only upon the written approval of the Compensation Committee.

Elements of Executive Compensation

As discussed above, the Company’s compensation programs for our Named Executive Officers are based on four components: base salary, annual cash incentives, stock-based compensation and retirement, health and other benefits; each intended as an important piece of the overall compensation.

 
33

 
Base Salary

Base salary is used to attract and retain the Named Executive Officers and is determined using comparisons with industry competitors and other relevant factors including the seniority of the individual, the functional role of the position, the level of the individual’s responsibility, and the ability to replace the individual.  Salaries for the Named Executive Officers are reviewed by the Compensation Committee and the board of directors on an annual basis. Changes to base salaries, if any, are affected primarily by individual performance.

Annual Bonuses
 
Annual bonuses are intended to be a component of a Named Executive Officer’s compensation package.  The amount of annual bonus compensation to be awarded to each Named Executive Officer (if any) is determined by the Compensation Committee, upon recommendation by the Chief Executive Officer.  While the Chief Executive Officer and the Compensation Committee consider the Company’s overall performance and each individual’s performance when determining the amount of bonus to award, there is no predefined written plan, acknowledged by the recipient, with respect to performance measures that obligates the Company to pay an annual bonus, and the Compensation Committee retains absolute discretion to award bonuses and to determine the amount of the bonuses.

Share-Based Compensation (Long-Term Incentive Compensation; Stock Options)

Share-based long-term incentive compensation awarded to Named Executive Officers has been and is provided through the issuance of stock options.  Stock options are an important element of the Company’s long-term incentive programs.  The primary purpose of stock options is to provide the Named Executive Officers and other employees with a personal and financial interest in the Company’s success through stock ownership, thereby aligning the interests of such persons with those of our stockholders.  The Compensation Committee believes that the value of stock options will reflect the Company’s financial performance over the long-term.  Because the Company’s stock option program provides for a vesting period before options may be exercised and, in general, an exercise price based on the fair market value as of the date of grant, employees benefit from stock options only when the market value of the common shares increases over time.

Share-based awards typically consist of options to purchase common stock that vest over three to five years and have a term of five to ten years.  The Company has approximately 746,433 options that expire in more than five years and all options expire within eight and one-half years.

The Company’s long-term incentive programs are generally intended to provide rewards to Named Executive Officers only if value is created for stockholders over time and the Named Executive Officers continue in the employ of the Company.  The Compensation Committee believes that employees should have sufficient holdings of the Company’s common stock so that their decisions will appropriately foster growth in the value of the Company.  The Compensation Committee reviews with the Chief Executive Officer the recommended individual awards and evaluates the scope of responsibility, strategic and operational goals of individual contributions in making final awards.

With respect to the share-based compensation, the Company recognizes stock compensation expense based on the Statement of Financial Accounting Standard 123R “Share-Based Payments” (“SFAS 123R”).  SFAS 123R requires public companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award.  The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the grant date fair value.  The Company ensures that stock option awards approved by the Compensation Committee will be granted subsequent to any planned release of material non-public information.  The Company has not engaged in amending, cancelling or re-pricing stock options awarded to its Named Executive Officers.

Retirement, Health and Other Benefits
 
The Company provides health and other benefits as an additional incentive to retain employees.  The Company does not maintain any defined contribution plan (retirement plan) or defined benefit plan (pension plan).
 
 
34

 
We currently make available to our Executive Officers and all employees a comprehensive health insurance program.  The Company currently provides a basic term life insurance policy to all employees and makes additional coverage available at the employee’s expense and discretion.

The Company does not provide any additional perquisites to the Named Executive Officers, other than which is included in the Summary Compensation Table above. The total of all perquisites to any Named Executive Officer did not equal or exceed $10,000 for the 2011 fiscal year.

Employment Agreements and Compensation Arrangements

Employment Agreement with Paul R. Arena

In connection with the appointment of Paul R. Arena as our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Arena on June 8, 2010.  The term of the Employment Agreement is 36 months commencing on June 8, 2010, and we may renew the Employment Agreement for another 12-month period thereafter.

For his services as Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, Mr. Arena will receive compensation in the form of a base salary of $275,000 during the first 12 months of his employment, $350,000 during the second 12 months of his employment, and $425,000 during the third 12 months of his employment.  If the Employment Agreement is renewed for a fourth period of 12 months, then Mr. Arena’s base salary will be increased by a minimum of 10% from the prior 12 months’ base salary or by a higher amount as determined by the board of directors.  If, however, we do not reach a positive or breakeven cash flow or we do not become profitable through extraordinary gains, then Mr. Arena’s base salary for the second, third, and fourth (if any) 12-month periods will remain at $275,000 until such time as we reach a positive or breakeven cash flow or become profitable through extraordinary gains.  Mr. Arena will receive bonus compensation upon meeting performance goals and objectives to be mutually agreed upon by Mr. Arena and the board of directors in advance of the relevant performance period.

Mr. Arena will receive 1% of the net consideration received by the Company or our stockholders for the following events that occur during Mr. Arena’s employment or service as a member of the board of directors or during the 12-month period following his removal from the board or termination as an employee:

 
·
a change of control of the Company or the acquisition of all or substantially all of our business or assets as a result of a sale or exchange of stock, a merger, a consolidation or other business combination, sale or exclusive license of assets, or similar transactions; and

 
·
Mr. Arena’s participation in the realization of the monetization of our intellectual property either through (a) a settlement agreement, (b) a license agreement except for licenses entered into in the ordinary course of business, or (c) an asset sale.  If, however, the monetization of our intellectual property occurs during the 12-month period following the termination of Mr. Arena’s employment for cause, Mr. Arena will not be entitled to the 1% net consideration.

Mr. Arena is also received an initial grant of 5-year options to purchase 2,000,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.00 per share.  Vesting of these options will occur according to the following schedule:  the right to purchase 500,000 shares vested immediately upon grant; the right to purchase 1,500,000 shares vests one-thirty sixth per month over a three year period starting on June 8, 2010.  Mr. Arena is entitled to receive additional options to purchase shares of our common stock as determined by the board from time to time.  Any stock options held by Mr. Arena will immediately vest in full at the time of a change of control.

We also agreed to issue an aggregate 225,000 restricted shares of our common stock to Mr. Arena according to the following schedule:  6,250 shares at the end of each thirty-day period during the initial term of the Employment Agreement.  For Mr. Arena’s participation in securing either cumulative revenues in any fiscal year, an intellectual property related settlement agreement, an intellectual property related license agreement (except for licenses entered into in the ordinary course of business), or an asset sale during his period of employment (each a “Stock Acceleration Event”), we will, for each $10 million that we receive as a result of any Stock Acceleration Event, issue to Mr. Arena 75,000 restricted shares of common stock, which will reduce by the same amount the balance of undelivered shares owed as part of the issuance of an aggregate 225,000 shares.

 
35

 
Mr. Arena also purchased 25,000 restricted shares of our common stock at $1.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000.  This purchase entitled Mr. Arena to 3-year warrants exercisable for an aggregate 12,500 shares of our common stock at $1.25 per share.

We may terminate Mr. Arena’s employment for any reason without cause by providing Mr. Arena with 30 days’ prior written notice.  In the event of a termination by us without cause, Mr. Arena is entitled to severance in the amount of his then-current base salary, plus accrued but unpaid vacation time, accrued but unpaid benefits, and reimbursement of all unpaid business expenses, for a period of the greater of (i) 6 months and (ii) the remainder of the initial 36-month term or subsequent twelve-month term, whichever the case may be.

We may terminate Mr. Arena’s employment for any of the following reasons at any time upon delivery of written notice to Mr. Arena: (a) material fraud, gross malfeasance, gross negligence, or willful misconduct done in bad faith with respect to our business affairs, (b) refusal or repeated failure to follow our established reasonable and lawful policies, (c) material breach of the Employment Agreement by Mr. Arena, and (d) conviction of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude.  Termination for cause based on (a) through (c) in this paragraph will take effect 30 days after Mr. Arena receives written notice from us unless Mr. Arena remedies, to be determined in our sole discretion, the events or circumstances constituting cause for termination.  In the event of a termination for cause, Mr. Arena will not entitled to a severance payment.

Compensation Arrangement with Phillip C. Rapp, Jr.

On August 12, 2010 we retained the services of Phillip Charles Rapp, Jr. as our Chief Operating Officer at an annual salary of $150,000.00.  Because Mr. Rapp is required to travel to the various sites where our operations are located, we also reimburse Mr. Rapp for these expenses.  We granted an option to Mr. Rapp to purchase 500,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $1.30 per share.  The right to purchase the common stock vests one-thirty sixth per month over a three year period starting August 12, 2010.  The option has a term of 5 years.

Mr. Rapp is also eligible to receive certain performance-based bonuses, subject to his attainment of the following performance targets:

 
·
if the Company achieves $5 million in gross revenues, Mr. Rapp’s bonus will be $50,000; and

Any payment of a bonus will be made in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll practices and procedures following the conclusion of the Company’s fiscal year-end.  Any decision or judgment regarding Mr. Rapp’s right or entitlement to a bonus will be made by the Company in the sole discretion of the Company’s management.

The following table also provides certain information with respect to the selling stockholders’ ownership of our securities as of March 15, 2011, the total number of securities they may sell under this prospectus from time to time, and the number of securities they will own thereafter assuming no other acquisitions or dispositions of our securities.  For the table below, ownership of the common stock is determined in accordance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and includes any shares of common stock over which a selling stockholder exercises sole or shared voting or investment powers, or of which a selling stockholder has a right to acquire ownership at any time within 60 days of March 15, 2011.  The selling stockholders can offer all, some or none of their securities, thus we have no way of determining the number they will hold after this offering.  Therefore, we have prepared the table below on the assumption that the selling stockholders will sell all shares covered by this prospectus.

Some of the selling stockholders may distribute their shares, from time to time, to their limited and/or general partners or managers, who may sell shares pursuant to this prospectus.  Each selling stockholder may also transfer shares owned by him or her by gift, and upon any such transfer the donee would have the same right of sale as the selling stockholder.

We may amend or supplement this prospectus from time to time to update the disclosure set forth herein, however, if a selling stockholder transfers his or her interest in the common stock or the common stock purchase warrants prior to the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we will be required to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to provide the information concerning the transferee.  Alternatively, if a selling stockholder transfers his or her interest in the common stock or the common stock purchase warrants after the effective date of the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, we may use a supplement to update this prospectus.  With the exception of Mr. Patrick J. Retzer, who is an affiliate of a broker-dealer, none of the selling stockholders are or were affiliated with registered broker-dealers.  Mr. Retzer purchased the securities as an investment and has represented to us that he has no agreements or understandings, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the Company’s shares.  See our discussion titled “Plan of Distribution” for further information regarding the selling stockholders’ method of distribution of these shares.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We are registering the shares of common stock on behalf of the selling stockholders.  Sales of shares may be made by selling stockholders, including their respective donees, transferees, pledgees or other successors-in-interest directly to purchasers or to or through underwriters, broker-dealers or through agents.  Sales may be made from time to time on the OTC Bulletin Board or any exchange upon which our shares may trade in the future, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to market prices, or at negotiated or fixed prices.  The shares may be sold by one or more of, or a combination of, the following:

 
·
a block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction (including crosses in which the same broker acts as agent for both sides of the transaction);

 
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by such broker-dealer, including resales for its account, pursuant to this prospectus;
 
 
 
45

 

 
 
·
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker solicits purchases;

 
·
through options, swaps or derivatives;

 
·
in privately negotiated transactions;

 
·
in making short sales or in transactions to cover short sales;

 
·
put or call option transactions relating to the shares; and

 
·
any other method permitted under applicable law.

The selling stockholders may effect these transactions by selling shares directly to purchasers or to or through broker-dealers, which may act as agents or principals.  These broker-dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the selling stockholders and/or the purchasers of shares for whom such broker-dealers may act as agents or to whom they sell as principals, or both (which compensation as to a particular broker-dealer might be in excess of customary commissions).  The selling stockholders have advised us that they have not entered into any agreements, understandings or arrangements with any underwriters or broker-dealers regarding the sale of their securities.

The selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions.  In connection with those transactions, the broker-dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of the shares or of securities convertible into or exchangeable for the shares in the course of hedging positions they assume with the selling stockholders.  The selling stockholders may also enter into options or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions which require the delivery of shares offered by this prospectus to those broker-dealers or other financial institutions.  The broker-dealer or other financial institution may then resell the shares pursuant to this prospectus (as amended or supplemented, if required by applicable law, to reflect those transactions).

The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers that act in connection with the sale of shares may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, and any commissions received by broker-dealers or any profit on the resale of the shares sold by them while acting as principals may be deemed to be underwriting discounts or commissions under the Securities Act.  The selling stockholders may agree to indemnify any agent, dealer or broker-dealer that participates in transactions involving sales of the shares against liabilities, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.  We have agreed to indemnify each of the selling stockholders and each selling stockholder has agreed, severally and not jointly, to indemnify us against some liabilities in connection with the offering of the shares, including liabilities arising under the Securities Act.

The selling stockholders will be subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.  We have informed the selling stockholders that the anti-manipulative provisions of Regulation M promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 may apply to their sales in the market.

Selling stockholders also may resell all or a portion of the shares in open market transactions in reliance upon Rule 144 under the Securities Act, provided they meet the criteria and conform to the requirements of Rule 144.

Upon being notified by a selling stockholder that a material arrangement has been entered into with a broker-dealer for the sale of shares through a block trade, special offering, exchange distribution or secondary distribution or a purchase by a broker or dealer, we will file a supplement to this prospectus, if required pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, disclosing:

 
·
the name of each such selling stockholder and of the participating broker-dealer(s);
 
 
 
46

 

 
 
·
the number of shares involved;

 
·
the initial price at which the shares were sold;

 
·
the commissions paid or discounts or concessions allowed to the broker-dealer(s), where applicable;

 
·
that such broker-dealer(s) did not conduct any investigation to verify the information set out or incorporated by reference in this prospectus; and

 
·
other facts material to the transactions.

In addition, if required under applicable law or the rules or regulations of the Commission, we will file a supplement to this prospectus when a selling stockholder notifies us that a donee or pledgee intends to sell more than 500 shares of common stock.

We are paying all expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares.  The selling stockholders will bear all brokerage or underwriting discounts or commissions paid to broker-dealers in connection with the sale of the shares.

CHANGE OF CONTROL

To our knowledge, there are no present arrangements or pledges of securities of our company that may result in a change in control.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES TO BE REGISTERED

General

We are registering shares of our common stock.  We are presently authorized under our Certificate of Incorporation to issue 100,000,000 shares of common stock $.0001 par value per share.  The following description of our common stock is only a summary and is subject to and qualified by our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, copies of which will be provided by us upon request, and by the provisions of applicable corporate laws of the State of Delaware.

Provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation that may Delay, Defer or Prevent a Change of Control

Article Seven of our Certificate of Incorporation requires that our board be classified or “staggered”, meaning that our board of directors is divided into 3 classes, with each class serving for a period of 3 years.  This provision will make it difficult for someone to obtain control of our Company, because even if that stockholder acquires all or a majority of our shares of common stock, they will not gain immediate control of a majority of the board because members must first serve their terms.  It would take two or more annual meetings to gain control of our board.

Article Seven of our Certificate of Incorporation also requires a vote of two-thirds of the voting power of all outstanding voting shares to remove all of the directors without cause.  Furthermore, Article Nine of our Certificate of Incorporation requires a vote of two-thirds of the voting power of all outstanding voting shares to alter, amend or repeal either Article Seven or Article Nine.  The requirement of a supermajority vote will make it exceedingly difficult to remove the members of our board without cause.  Due to the supermajority requirement, it will also be exceedingly difficult to alter, amend or repeal Article Seven or Article Nine.

Voting Rights

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders.  Holders of our common stock are not entitled to cumulative voting rights with respect to the election of directors.  We have a “staggered” board, which means that our directors are divided into 3 classes.  Each class serves a term of 3 years.

Dividends

Subject to limitations under Delaware law and preferences that may apply to any shares of preferred stock that we may decide to issue in the future, holders of our common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends or other distributions, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

Liquidation

In the event of the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of our business, holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to the liquidation preference of any outstanding preferred stock we may decide to issue in the future.

 
49

 
Rights and Preferences

Our common stock has no preemptive, conversion or other rights to subscribe for additional securities.  There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our common stock.  The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of common stock are subject to, and may be adversely affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future.

Fully Paid and Non-Assessable

All outstanding shares of our common stock are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

DISCLOSURE OF COMMISSION POSITION OF INDEMNIFICATION FOR
SECURITIES ACT LIABILITIES

We are subject to the laws of Delaware on corporate matters, including its indemnification provisions.  Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of Delaware (the “GCL”) provides that Delaware corporations are empowered, subject to certain procedures and limitations, to indemnify any person against expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit, or proceeding (including a derivative action) in which such person is made a party by reason of his being or having been a director, officer, employee, or agent of the company (each, an “Indemnitee”); provided that the right of an Indemnitee to receive indemnification is subject to the following limitations: (i) an Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification unless he acted in good faith and in a manner that he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such conduct was unlawful, and (ii) in the case of a derivative action, an Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification in the event that he is judged to be liable to the company (unless and only to the extent that the court determines that the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such expenses as the court deems proper).  The statute provides that indemnification pursuant to our provisions is not exclusive of other rights of indemnification to which a person may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders, or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

Pursuant to Article Eight of our Certificate of Incorporation (“Article Eight”), we are authorized to provide indemnification of (and advancement of expenses to) directors, officers, employees and agents (and any other persons to which Delaware law permits us to provide indemnification) through bylaw provisions, agreements with such agents or other persons, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, in excess of the indemnification and advancement otherwise permitted by Section 145 of the GCL, subject only to limits created by applicable Delaware law (statutory or non-statutory), with respect to action for breach of duty to us, our stockholders and others.

Article Eight also states that our directors shall not be personally liable to us or any stockholder for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except of any matter in respect of which such director shall be liable under Section 174 of the GCL or shall be liable because the director (1) shall have breached his duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders, (2) shall have acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or, in failing to act, shall have acted in a manner involving intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, or (3) shall have derived an improper personal benefit.  Article Eight further states that the liability of our directors shall be eliminated or limited to the fullext extent permitted by the GCL, as amended.

Under Article Eight and Article 6 of our bylaws, any person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is in any way involved in any threatened, pending or completed action suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, including any appeal therefrom, by reason of the fact that he is or was a director or officer of ours or was serving at our request as a director or officer of another entity or enterprise (including any subsidiary), shall be indemnified and held harmless by us and we are required to advance all expenses incurred by such person in defense of any such proceeding prior to its final determination, to the fullest extent authorized by the GCL.  These rights are not exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may otherwise be entitled.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. No pending material litigation or proceeding involving our directors, executive officers, employees or other agents as to which indemnification is being sought exists, and we are not aware of any pending or threatened material litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any of our directors or executive officers.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Augme Technologies, Inc. ("Augme", “we”, “our”, or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission, and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in Augme's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on June 1, 2010.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to be consistent with the current period classification.  The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. Notes to the financial statements that would substantially duplicate the disclosures contained in the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010 as reported in Form 10-K have been omitted.

Revenue Recognition Policy

Upon completion and execution of a Master Service Agreement or Statement of Work (the "SOW") is booked into the accounting system. If the SOW is to be completed in 1 year the entry is Debit Accounts receivable and credit deferred revenue in current assets and liabilities, respectively. If the SOW extends over a year then the short term portion, less than a year is booked as short term and the long term portion or over a year is booked as such.
 
Revenue is recognized and reclassified from Deferred revenue to current period income depending on the type of revenue. Implementation and set up fees are bookedupon signature or upon mobilization to start work on the project. Campaign fees are incurred monthly and recognized over the term of the contract. Software license fees are recognized over the term of the SOW on a prorate basis.

NOTE 3 - DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On December 31, 2009, the Company entered into to a binding letter of intent with World Talk Radio, LLC (“WTR”), an Arizona limited liability company, regarding the disposition of certain assets and liabilities related to the Internet Radio operations based in Tempe, AZ.
 
On February 25, 2010, the Company and WTR executed the final Asset Purchase Agreement in connection with the binding letter of intent.
 
As consideration for the sale of the assets of the Internet Radio operations, the Company will receive a perpetual royalty as a percentage of gross revenue collected by WTR, based on the following schedule:
 
January 1, 2010 – March 31, 2010
- 5% of Gross revenues collected
April 1, 2010 – June 30, 2010
- 10% of Gross revenues collected
July 1, 2010 – June 30, 2015
- 15% of Gross revenues collected
July 1, 2015 and after
- 5% of Gross revenues collected
 
Management evaluated the future royalty payments and determined the cash flows are indirect. Management then performed an evaluation under FASB ASC 205-20 and determined there was no significant continuing involvement by Augme in the operations of the disposed Internet Radio component. Augme does not retain an interest and there are no existing contracts that would allow Augme to influence the operating or financial policies of the Internet Radio component.
 
Pursuant to accounting rules for discontinued operations, we have included the results for the comparable prior reporting period to present the activity related to the Internet Radio operations as a discontinued operation.  Discontinued operations for the three months ended November 30, 2009 are summarized as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors
 Augme Technologies, Inc. (formerly Modavox, Inc.)
 New York, NY

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Augme Technologies, Inc. (formerly Modavox, Inc.) as of February 28, 2010 and 2009, and the consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years ended February 28, 2010, February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. Augme is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of Augme’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Augme Technologies, Inc. as of February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the three years ended February 28, 2010, February 28, 2009 and February 29, 2008 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

AUGME TECHNOLOGIES, INC. (FORMERLY MODAVOX, INC.)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

We are a provider of technology and services in interactive media marketing platforms that enable marketers and agencies to seamlessly integrate brands, promotions, video and digital content through the power of the internet and mobile communications.  Our intuitive new media marketing platforms give companies the control they need to quickly create, deploy and measure rich-media, interactive marketing campaigns across all networks and devices.  Campaigns built on Augme marketing platforms condense the customer loyalty cycle by delivering personalized brand experience to customers where they work, play and live.
 
NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Reclassifications
 
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America necessarily requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements.  The Company regularly evaluates estimates and judgments based on historical experience and other relevant facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.  Significant estimates relate to allowances for tax assets, the use of the Black-Scholes pricing model for valuing stock option and common stock warrant issuances, estimates of future cash flows used to evaluate impairment of long-lived assets, the period in which revenues should be recorded, and the collectability of accounts receivable.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its controlled subsidiaries.  Equity investments in which the Company exercises significant influence, but does not control and is not the primary beneficiary, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting.  Investments in which the Company does not exercise significant influence over the investee are accounted for using the cost method of accounting.  Intercompany transactions are eliminated.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Revenue Recognition

The Company provides access to its AD LIFE™ mobile marketing platform and services through term license fees, support fees, and mobile marketing campaign fees.  The contracts generally include multiple elements as part of the overall service delivery and revenues are generally recognized over the term of the contract.  The Company also offers professional services related to the strategy and execution of mobile marketing campaigns.  Professional services revenue is recognized as the services are performed as these services have value on a standalone basis, do not involve unique acceptance criteria and have a fair value that can be obtained as the other services are generally sold without professional services.

 
F-18

 
Revenue from the Company’s digital video platform and ad delivery platform is based upon the terms of individual contracts and includes revenue from the production and delivery of online media content, revenue from the creation of custom software for online content delivery functionality, fees for hosting websites, and fees for producing online advertising content for third party and company websites.

Contracts may include single deliverables such as production and delivery of media content, hosting, fees from content retention or fees from online advertising content, or may include multiple deliverables such as custom software creation, audio production, and delivery of online media content or hosting. Revenues from single delivery contracts for the production and delivery of online media content and hosting are recorded pro rata over the term of the media content production and delivery or hosting period.  Multiple deliverable contracts are evaluated based on authoritative guidance to determine whether they meet the separation criterion for recognition of each deliverable as a separate unit.

Revenues from the creation of custom software are generally a component of contracts that include hosting and/or production and delivery services. Software revenues are recorded when the software is completed and accepted by the client if the software has free standing functionality, the fee for the software is separately determinable and the Company has demonstrated its capability of completing any remaining terms under the contract. Otherwise all revenues under the multi-deliverable contracts are recorded pro rata over the term of the production and content delivery or hosting period.

Fees for producing interactive advertising content are based upon a fee for the production and hosting of the advertising content and/or a percentage of the fees paid by third party advertisers. Fees from third parties for the production and hosting of the advertising content are recorded pro rata over the related hosting period. Fees representing a percentage of the fees paid by third party advertisers for advertising on third party or company websites are recorded when the contractual criteria has been met and amounts are due from third party advertisers.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company applies the fair value recognition provisions for all stock-based payments granted or modified on or subsequent to March 1, 2006 in accordance with authoritative guidance. Under this guidance, the Company records compensation costs over the requisite service period of the award based on the grant-date fair value. The straight-line method is applied to all grants with service conditions.

Loss per Share

In accordance with authoritative guidance, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss for the period by the number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period, assuming full dilution. As of February 28, 2010, there were potentially dilutive securities of options exercisable into 2,399,622 shares of common stock, and warrants exercisable to purchase 5,384,195 shares of common stock.  However, the computation of diluted earnings per share does not assume conversion or exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on the calculation of earnings per share as the inclusion of these outstanding warrants and stock options would be anti-dilutive. Accordingly, diluted net loss per share and basic net loss per share are identical for each of the periods in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments consist primarily of cash, accounts receivable, obligations under accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amount of cash, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

The Company applies the authoritative guidance in measuring assets and liabilities that are carried at fair value.  The guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and provides required disclosures about fair value measurements.

Fair value under the authoritative guidance is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market corroborated, or generally unobservable. The Company classifies fair value balances based on the observability of those inputs. The guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurement).

 
F-19

 
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy defined are as follows:

·
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1 primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
·
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument, can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace. Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options and collars.
·
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of the fair value of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

Accounts Receivable

The Company’s accounts receivable balances are due from customers throughout the United States. Credit is extended based on evaluation of a customer’s financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. Based on the nature of the contract, our billing terms are such that a certain percentage is billed at the time of the contract and then at various time intervals or through the length of the agreement, which are generally up to twelve months.

The Company determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company, and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. Our allowance for doubtful accounts was $63,747 and $436,273 as of February 28, 2010 and February 28, 2009, respectively.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment consists primarily of software, office and computer equipment, furniture, fixtures and leasehold improvements and is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 3 to 7 years. Depreciation expense was $284,017, $223,578, and $122,334 for the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 and February 29, 2008, respectively.

The Company capitalizes the costs of developing software for internal use or to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed in accordance with authoritative guidance. These costs include both purchased software and internally developed software. Costs of developing software are expensed until technological feasibility has been established. Thereafter, all costs are capitalized and are carried at the lower of unamortized cost or net realizable value. Internally developed and purchased software costs are generally amortized over three years.

Goodwill, Intangible Assets, and Long-lived Assets

Goodwill represents costs in excess of fair values assigned to the underlying net assets acquired. The Company follows authoritative guidance with respect to the accounting for business combinations, goodwill and other intangible assets, and the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets .   This guidance requires the use of the purchase method of accounting for business combinations, sets forth the accounting for the initial recognition of acquired intangible assets and goodwill and describes the accounting for intangible assets and goodwill subsequent to initial recognition. Under these provisions, goodwill is not subject to amortization and an annual review is required for impairment. The impairment test is based on a two-step process involving (i) comparing the estimated fair value of the related reporting unit to its net book value and (ii) comparing the estimated implied fair value of goodwill to its carrying value. Impairment losses are recognized whenever the implied fair value of goodwill is less than its carrying value. The Company's annual impairment testing date is February 28.

The Company recognizes an acquired intangible asset apart from goodwill whenever the intangible asset arises from contractual or other legal rights, or when it can be separated or divided from the acquired entity and sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged, either individually or in combination with a related contract, asset or liability. Such intangibles are amortized over their useful lives. Impairment losses are recognized if the carrying amount of an intangible asset subject to amortization is not recoverable from expected future cash flows and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value.

The Company reviews its long-lived assets, including property and equipment, identifiable intangibles, and goodwill annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable. To determine recoverability of its long-lived assets, the Company evaluates the probability that future undiscounted net cash flows will be less than the carrying amount of the assets. See Note 6 for the impairment recorded by the Company for the year ended February 28, 2010, 2009 and February 29, 2008.

When incurring legal costs to sue other parties for infringing on the Company’s patents, or in defending against claims by other parties that our patents are not valid, the Company capitalizes those legal costs as additional costs of the patent where the Company determines that a favorable outcome from the litigation is probable.  If the Company is ultimately unsuccessful, the costs are charged to expense. For legal costs that are capitalized, the value of any award received upon successful resolution of the legal action will first be recorded as a reduction of the capitalized legal costs, with any excess recorded as income.  For the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, the Company capitalized $1,575,178 and $353,000, respectively, of legal costs related to our lawsuit against Tacoda and Yahoo as the Company has determined that a favorable outcome is probable.

During the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009 and February 29, 2008, the Company recorded amortization expense on intangible assets of $557,263, $318,372, and $105,416, respectively.

Deferred Revenue

Amounts billed or collected in advance of the period in which the related product or service qualifies for revenue recognition are recorded as deferred revenue.
 
The Company relieves the deferred revenue balance and records revenue when the service has been performed in accordance with the Company’s revenue recognition policy.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are provided for tax effects of transactions reported in the financial statements and consist of income taxes currently due plus deferred income taxes related to timing differences between the basis of certain assets and liabilities for financial statement and income tax reporting. Deferred taxes are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. A valuation allowance is provided if, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
 
The Company applies the authoritative guidance in accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the financial statements. This guidance prescribes a two-step process to determine the amount of tax benefit to be recognized. First, the tax position must be evaluated to determine the likelihood that it will be sustained upon external examination. If the tax position is deemed “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained, the tax position is then assessed to determine the amount of benefit to recognize in the financial statements. The amount of the benefit that may be recognized is the largest amount that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on revenue arrangements with multiple deliverables that are not covered by software revenue guidance. This guidance provides another alternative for establishing fair value for a deliverable when vendor specific objective evidence or third-party evidence for deliverables in an arrangement cannot be determined. Under this guidance, companies will be required to develop a best estimate of the selling price for separate deliverables. Arrangement consideration will need to be allocated using the relative selling price method as the residual method will no longer be permitted. This guidance is effective prospectively for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010 and early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of this guidance on its consolidated financial statements.

 
F-22

 
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance establishing general standards of accounting and disclosure for events that occur after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements are issued. This new standard was effective beginning with the Company’s second quarter financial reporting and did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements

In June 2008, the FASB issued authoritative guidance requires all derivatives to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value.  Fair value for securities traded in the open market and derivatives are based on quoted market prices.  Where market prices are not readily available, fair values are determined using market based pricing models incorporating readily observable market data and requiring judgment and estimates.  The pricing model the Company used for determining fair values of its derivatives is the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  Valuations derived from this model are subject to ongoing internal and external verification and review.  The model uses market-sourced inputs such as interest rates, exchange rates and option volatilities.  Selection of these inputs involves management’s judgment and may impact net income.  All of the securities underlying the Company’s derivatives were exercised during the fiscal year ended February 28, 2010, and, therefore, no derivative liability is reported on the balance sheet as of February 28, 2010.

NOTE 3 – DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

On December 31, 2009, the Company entered into to a binding letter of intent with World Talk Radio, LLC (“WTR”), an Arizona Limited Liability Company, regarding the disposition of certain assets and liabilities related to the Internet Radio operations based in Tempe, AZ.
 
On February 25, 2010, the Company and WTR executed the final Asset Purchase Agreement in connection with the Binding Letter of Intent.
 
As consideration for the sale of the assets of the Internet Radio operations, the Company will receive a perpetual royalty as a percentage of gross revenue collected by WTR, based on the following schedule:

 
January 1, 2010 – March 31, 2010
-  5% of Gross revenues collected
April 1, 2010 – June 30, 2010
- 10% of Gross revenues collected
July 1, 2010 – June 30, 2015
-  15% of Gross revenues collected
July 1, 2015 and after
-  5% of Gross revenues collected

Since the proceeds from the sale of the Internet Radio operations is contingent on future revenue collected, we were required to record the net asset sold to WTR as a loss on the sale of discontinued operations, which amounted to $878,162.  However, all future royalty payments received will be reported as a gain on the sale of discontinued operations in the period received.

Management evaluated the future royalty payments and determined the cash flows are indirect. Management then performed an evaluation under FASB ASC 205-20 and determined there was no significant continuing involvement by Augme in the operations of the disposed Internet Radio component. Augme does not retain an interest and there are no existing contracts that would allow Augme to influence the operating or financial policies of the Internet Radio component.

 
F-23

 
Pursuant to accounting rules for discontinued operations, we have classified fiscal year 2010 and prior reporting periods to present the activity related to the Internet Radio operations as a discontinued operation. Discontinued operations for the twelve months ended February 28, 2010, 2009, and February 29, 2008 are summarized as follows:

NOTE 4 – DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

In June 2008, the FASB ratified ASC 815-15, “Determining Whether an Instrument (or Embedded Feature) Is Indexed to an Entity’s Own Stock” (“ASC 815-15”). ASC 815-15, “Accounting for Derivatives and Hedging Activities” (“ASC 815-15”),  specifies that a contract that would otherwise meet the definition of a derivative, but is both (a) indexed to its own stock and (b) classified in stockholders’ equity in the statement of financial position would not be considered a derivative financial instrument. ASC 815-15 provides a new two-step model to be applied in determining whether a financial instrument or an embedded feature is indexed to an issuer’s own stock, including evaluating the instrument’s contingent exercise and settlement provisions, and thus able to qualify for the ASC 815-15 scope exception. It also clarifies the impact of foreign currency denominated strike prices and market-based employee stock option valuation instruments on the evaluation. ASC 815-15 is effective for the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008, and early adoption is prohibited.

Initially, Augme evaluated all of its financial instruments and determined that 382,359 warrants associated with two July 2004 financings qualified for treatment under ASC 815-15 and adjusted its financial statements to reflect the adoption of the ASC 815-15 as of March 1, 2009. The fair value of these warrants were reclassified as of March 1, 2009 in the amount of $699,942 from additional paid in capital to derivative liability and the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle in the amount of $631,144 was recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings. During the year ended February 28, 2010, all 382,359 of these warrants were exercised for common stock. An aggregate loss since March 1, 2009 on the warrants of $335,820 and a reduction of the derivative liability of $1,035,762 were recorded on the settlement dates. 
 
All of these warrants were exercised during the fiscal year.  The fair values of the warrants on March 1, 2009 were estimated using the following assumptions:

NOTE 6 - ASSET PURCHASES

On March 1, 2007, The Company purchased certain equipment and intangible assets from World Talk Radio, LLC (WTR), a San Diego based internet talk radio company, for 900,000 shares of common stock valued at $1,260,000 based upon the market price at the date of purchase. The purchase agreement provided that another 100,000 common shares be retained in escrow for one year after the March 1, 2008.  As of February 29, 2008, 30,000 common shares have been released and recorded at a fair value of $52,500.  During the fiscal year, 15,000 of the escrow common shares were cancelled pursuant to a clause in the Brento lease termination agreement (See note 9 for more details).  The remaining 55,000 have been accrued for as of February 28, 2009 at a fair value of $96,250.  In addition, the Company incurred $25,138 of fees associated with the transaction. The Company valued the purchased property and equipment at $35,000 and certain intangible assets, consisting of the trade name, domain name and various archived internet radio programs at $1,250,138. At the time of the purchase, WTR had two employees and minimal operating activity. In addition, the technology, marketing, and operating activities were abandoned and replaced with a Company version.  As a result, the Company accounted for this transaction as an asset purchase and not an acquisition of a business.

In May 2008, the Company purchased certain assets (RadioPilot) from Avalar, Inc., a Washington based internet radio software developer to enhance the Company’s current BoomBox® Radio offering.  The Company acquired the internet radio assets and enhancement platform for 250,000 shares and $50,000 cash. The purchase provides the Company with all of the intangible assets and no liabilities of Avalar. These shares were valued at their fair value of $1.85 per share for a share value of $277,500 for the 150,000 issued immediately, while the purchase agreement provides that the Company will hold in escrow 100,000 common shares for six months while the Company implements the software and integrates the systems. These shares have not been issued as of February 28, 2009.  An accrual has been set up for the future issuance of these 100,000 common shares at its fair value of $122,000.  At the time of the purchase, Avalar had one employee who will provide front line support of the system integration and texting through October 15, 2008. In addition, the technology, marketing, and operational activities, where they existed, were abandoned following integration and replaced with the Company versions. As a result, the Company accounted for the transaction as an asset purchase and not an acquisition of a business.

NOTE 7 – IMPAIRMENT OF GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

At February 28, 2010, 2009 and February 29, 2008, the Company performed its annual review for impairment. This review was based upon the valuation approaches described in Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—Goodwill, Intangibles and Long-Lived Assets”.

 On July 14, 2009, the Company acquired New Aug, LLC, now included in the AD LIFE™ division.   The Company accounted for this transaction using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations.  In the original purchase price allocation, the Company allocated $12,720,223 to Goodwill.  At February 28, 2010, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit was more than the carrying value of the reporting unit requiring no impairment.

On March 1, 2006, the Company acquired Kino Interactive Group, LLC, now included in the divisions.  The Company accounted for this transaction using the purchase method of accounting for business combinations.  In the original purchase price allocation, the Company allocated $1,115,746 to Goodwill.  At February 28, 2009, the estimated fair value of the reporting unit was less than the carrying value of the reporting unit requiring the Company to determine the implied fair value of the Goodwill.  The implied Goodwill was $386,746 resulting in impairment of Goodwill of $729,000, which is reflected in the consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2009.  There was no impairment expense for Kino during the fiscal years ended February 28, 2010 and February 29, 2008.

NOTE 8 – INCOME TAXES
 
The Company uses the liability method, where deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes.

At February 28, 2010 and 2009, for federal income tax and alternative minimum tax reporting purposes, the Company had unused net operating losses available for carry forward to future years of approximately $13,780,000 and $7,332,000, respectively.  The benefits from carry forward of such net operating losses will expire in various years through 2030. The benefit could be subject to limitations if significant future ownership changes occur in the Company.  The Company has provided a valuation allowance for the full amount of its deferred tax assets because at February 28, 2010 and 2009 it is not more likely than not that any future benefit from deductible temporary differences and net operating loss and tax credit carryforwards would be realized. Future utilization of the available net operating loss carryforward may be limited under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 as a result of changes in ownership that have or may result from the issuance of common stock, and from options and warrants for the purchase of common stock.

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Proceedings and Claims

On December 29, 2009, two holders of Company Common Stock Purchase Warrant Agreements filed a lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. The Complaint alleges Breach of Contract, Contractual Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing, Declaratory Relief, and Injunctive Relief, related to certain Common Stock Purchase Warrant Agreements. Augme disagrees with the allegations contained in the Complaint and intends to vigorously defend the matter and otherwise enforce its rights with respect to the matter. Augme has retained counsel, is defending the matter, and as of June 1, 2010, the matter remains unresolved.

October 26, 2009, Movieland Classics, LLC, a former customer of Augme, filed an action for breach of contract, fraud and negligent misrepresentation alleging damages of $30,000 to $40,000.  Augme cross-complained for the $8,500 unpaid portion of the $13,500 contract. Augme takes the position that damages in the case are limited by the terms of the contract to the $5,000 paid.  The case is presently scheduled for mediation and discovery is underway.

In December 2008, the Company notified Sun Media Group, our Las Vegas landlord that our month to month relationship would cease as of January 1, 2009. In addition, we contacted Brento Corporation, our landlord in San Diego, and developed an agreement to terminate the remaining three year lease. The Company agreed to the issuance of 300,000 shares of common stock to terminate the lease agreement.  The 300,000 shares of common stock had a fair value of $552,000.   We also reversed $62,155 of deferred rent obligation that remained at the time of the lease termination.  This reversal was netted against the fair value of the common stock issued of $552,000.  The total lease termination expense at February 28, 2009 was $489,845.

During the year ended February 28, 2009, the Company received several demands from former employees and consultants requesting that the Company issue common stock and/or common stock warrants that purportedly were due based upon formal and informal agreements made by previous management for services allegedly rendered in 2005 and previous years. The Company has reviewed each demand as received, and has either rejected such requests or requested additional support for the demands as follows:
 
On September 4, 2007, a former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman began AAA arbitration proceedings against the Company in Atlanta, GA citing breach in the settlement agreement between both parties on March 21, 2006. On February 18, 2009, the Company settled the September 4, 2007 AAA arbitration. The settlement provides for a bleed out agreement for any and all shares issued to the former Chief Executive Officer & Chairman based on the options granted in 2005 and 2006. In addition, the settlement calls for the former Chief Executive Officer & Chairman to receive 1,488,156 stock options at an exercise price of $0.25 per share from the 2005 agreement and 427,342 stock options at an exercise price of $0.55 per share from the 2006 agreement.  The Company was required, and complied, to register the options underlining the options agreements. This matter has been resolved.

On March 20, 2008 a former investor began AAA arbitration proceedings seeking enforcement of terms pursuant to the former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman stock option assignment presumably in late 2007. Subsequent to February 28, 2009, the Company settled the March 20, 2008 AAA arbitration. The plaintiff forfeited 540,000 options under the assignment from the May 2005 options grant to the former Chief Executive Officer& Chairman. The total issuance to the plaintiff is 660,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock. In addition, plaintiff is afforded the right to purchase the Company’s Common Stock over fifteen months with the shares restricted for no less than six months. This matter has been resolved.

On January 9, 2009, the Company was named as a defendant in a direct lawsuit filed by a group of six of the Company’s shareholders in the United States District Court, District of Arizona. The suit seeks injunctive relief and damages relating to allegedly fraudulent securities-related transactions during the period 2003 through 2005 undertaken and authorized by prior management, including the Company's former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Robert Arkin. The suit also claims that plaintiffs have suffered damages resulting from new management's handling of information learned from its investigation of prior management. The Company's response to the court was due on January 26, 2009. In fiscal year February 28, 2010, the Company issued 75,000 common shares to resolve this matter.  The common shares had a fair value of $285,000.

Operating Leases

 The Company currently leases space in two locations under noncancellable leases, with one of them expiring in 2011 and the other in 2012.

Total rent expense under operating leases was $144,398, $71,121, and $94,514 for the years ended February 28, 2010 and 2009, and February 29, 2008, respectively.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

1.           To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

i.           To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

ii.           To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement.

iii.           To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

2.           That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.           To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

4.           That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

A.           Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3)shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

B.           Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus.  As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.  Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date; or

 
 

 
5.           Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
