PART I – FINANCIAL INFORMATION


Forward-Looking Information


This report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, such as statements about our plans, objectives, expectations, assumptions or future events. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “we believe,” “we intend,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “could” and similar expressions denoting uncertainty or an action that may, will or is expected to occur in the future. These statements involve estimates, assumptions, known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from any future results, performances or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Examples of forward-looking statements include:

·

the timing of the development of future products;

·

projections of costs, revenue, earnings, capital structure and other financial items;

·

statements of our plans and objectives;

·

statements regarding the capabilities of our business operations;

·

statements of expected future economic performance;

·

statements regarding competition in our market; and

·

assumptions underlying statements regarding us or our business.


The ultimate correctness of these forward-looking statements depends upon a number of known and unknown risks and events. We discuss our known material risks under Item 1.A “Risk Factors contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Many factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.


The forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

SMTP, INC.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


Note 1:

Organization and Basis of Presentation


Background


The Company was incorporated in Massachusetts on October 14, 1998 as EMUmail, Inc. and changed its name on April 1, 2010 to SMTP.com, Inc.  The Company focuses on the execution of email delivery for marketing and enterprise application customers.  The Company has customers for both corporate and personal email delivery. The Company’s services are marketed directly by the Company and through reseller partners.


On November 23, 2010, the Company formed a Delaware corporation, SMTP, Inc. for the purpose of changing the structure of the Company from a Massachusetts corporation to a Delaware corporation and to increase the number of authorized shares outstanding.  Also on November 23, 2010, the Company entered into a Merger agreement between SMTP, Inc. and SMTP.com, Inc. whereby the surviving corporation would be SMTP, Inc. (the “Surviving Corporation”), the newly formed Delaware corporation.  The Surviving Corporation has an authorized capital structure of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per share.  Under the terms of the Merger agreement, the Company’s existing 100 shares of ownership (which are held by a sole shareholder) were exchanged for 13,440,000 shares of common stock in the Surviving Corporation.  All financial statements have been retroactively restated to show the effects of this recapitalization.  


Basis of Presentation


In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal recurring accruals, necessary for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the accompanying notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The accounting policies are described in the “Notes to the Financial Statements” in the 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K and updated, as necessary, in this Form 10-Q. The year-end balance sheet data presented for comparative purposes was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year or for any other subsequent interim period.


Certain reclassifications have been made to prior reported period amounts to conform to current year presentations.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments


U.S. GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy which has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs to determine the fair value. These levels include: Level 1, defined as inputs such as unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for use when little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.


The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable. The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.


Intangibles


Our intangible assets consist of a domain name and a software license.  All such assets are capitalized at their original cost and amortized over their estimated useful lives.  The Company evaluates its intangibles for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that impairment may have occurred in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC 350 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”.  




5



Income Taxes


Provision for income taxes are based on taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred taxes on temporary differences between the amount of taxable income and pretax financial income and between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are included in the financial statements at currently enacted income tax rates applicable to the period in which the deferred tax assets and liabilities are expected to be realized or settled as prescribed in FASB ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. As changes in tax laws or rates are enacted, deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted through the provision for income taxes. A valuation allowance is established to reduce deferred tax assets if it is more likely than not that a deferred tax asset 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. There are no uncertain tax positions taken by the Company on its tax returns. Tax years subsequent to 2006 remain open to examination by U.S. federal and state tax jurisdictions.  


In determining the quarterly provision for income taxes, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, statutory tax rates and tax planning opportunities available to the Company in the jurisdictions in which it operates.  This includes recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns to the extent pervasive evidence exists that they will be realized in future periods. The deferred tax balances are adjusted to reflect tax rates by tax jurisdiction, based on currently enacted tax laws, which are expected to be in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse. In accordance with the Company’s income tax policy, significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur.


Revenue Recognition


The Company recognizes revenue from its services when it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transactions will flow to the Company and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. This is normally demonstrated when: (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (ii) the fee is fixed or determinable; (iii) performance of service has been delivered; and (iv) collection is reasonably assured.


The Company provides Internet-based services to facilitate email deliverability, including bulk and transactional sending, reputation management, compliance auditing, abuse processing and diagnostics.  The Company’s services are offered over various contractual periods for a fixed fee that varies based on a maximum volume of transactions.  Revenues are typically paid by clients via credit card, check or wire payments at the inception of the contractual period.  Revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contractual period.


The Company offers refunds on a pro-rata basis at any time during the contractual period.  The Company also experiences credit card chargebacks relating to cardholder disputes that are commonly experienced by businesses that accept credit cards.  The Company makes estimates for refunds and credit card chargebacks based on historical experience.


Net Income Per Share


Basic net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and, if dilutive, potential common shares outstanding during the period.  For periods prior to March 31, 2011, the Company’s options and warrants to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of net income per share because the average market price of the underlying shares during the period was not greater than the exercise price of the options.  



6



Recently Issued Accounting Standards


In October 2009, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2009-13, “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605): Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements—a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force” (“ASU 2009-13”), which provides guidance on whether multiple deliverables exist, how the arrangement should be separated, and the consideration allocated. ASU 2009-13 requires an entity to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of deliverables if a vendor does not have vendor-specific objective evidence or third-party evidence of selling price. ASU 2009-13 was effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after June 15, 2010 and could be applied retrospectively for all periods presented or prospectively to arrangements entered into or materially modified after the adoption date. Early adoption was permitted provided that the revised guidance was retroactively applied to the beginning of the year of adoption. ASU 2009-13 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2011. The adoption of these amendments did not have any impact on the consolidated financial statements.  


In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”), which amends ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASU 2011-04 does not extend the use of fair value accounting, but provides guidance on how it should be applied where its use is already required or permitted by other standards within U.S. GAAP or IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 changes the wording used to describe many requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. Additionally, ASU 2011-04 clarifies the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurements. ASU 2011-04 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, and is applied prospectively.  The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have on the financial statements.


In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-05, “Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (ASU 2011-05). The provisions of ASU 2011-05 amend FASB ASC Topic 220 “Comprehensive Income” to eliminate the current option to present the components of other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity, and require the presentation of net income and other comprehensive income (and their respective components) either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements. The amendments do not alter any current recognition or measurement requirements with respect to items of other comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU 2011-05 will have on the financial statements.


Note 2:

Intangible Assets


Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable.  Impairment is determined to exist if the anticipated future cash flow attributable to the asset is less than its carrying value.  The asset is then reduced to the net present value of the anticipated future cash flow.  


Domain Name

Domain name represents the cost of an internet domain.  The cost is amortized on the straight-line method over its estimated useful life of fifteen (15) years.

Note 5:

Stock-Based Compensation


The Company has historically granted stock options to certain vendors and employees.  On January 26, 2011, the Company granted 384,000 stock options at a strike price of $0.25 that vest equally over a four year period.  The grant date fair value of the awards was $54,736 (net of estimated forfeitures of 10%) which was determined using a Black-Scholes option pricing model using the following assumptions:  volatility of 68%, risk-free rate of return of 2.4%, stock price of $0.25 and expected term of 6.25 years.  The options expire in 2021.


The volatility used was based on historical volatility of similar sized companies due to lack of historical data of the Company’s stock price.  The risk free interest rate was determined based on treasury securities with maturities equal to the expected term of the underlying award.  The expected term was determined based on the simplified method outlined in Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110.


Stock option awards are expensed on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized expense of $11,662 and $25,288, respectively, associated with stock option awards.  There was no stock option expense recognized during the three and six months ended

June 30, 2010. At June 30, 2011, future stock compensation expense (net of estimated forfeitures) not yet recognized was $151,222 and will be recognized over a weighted average remaining vesting period of 1.6 years.  The following summarizes stock option activity for the six months ended June 30, 2011:

Warrants


On March 23, 2011, in connection with a consulting agreement, the Company issued 800,000 warrants to purchase common stock at an exercise price of $0.625 per share with a term of 5 years.  The warrants were fully vested at the date of grant and the Company recognized an expense of $73,768 equal to the grant date fair value of the warrants using the following assumptions: volatility of 68%; risk-free interest rate of 2.07%; and expected term of 5 years.  The fair value of the warrants was determined using the Black-Scholes option valuation model. The warrants expire on March 23, 2016 and have a remaining contractual life of 4.73 years as of June 30, 2011.  There are no other warrants outstanding as of June 30, 2011.  The intrinsic value of the Company’s warrants outstanding was $580,000 at June 30, 2011.

Revenues increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, due to increased sales of our email service products to consumers.  Revenue growth is attributable primarily to an increase in our number of subscribers of these products.  Most of this growth is attributable to organic growth in our customer base, specifically our larger business users who require dedicated computer and software systems and typically pay a higher average monthly fee.

Cost of services increased for the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to increased revenues.  As a percentage of revenues, cost of services were 18% and 20% of net revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, as compared to 26% and 26% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively.  This decrease in cost of services as a percentage of revenues is due to decreased partner share commissions during 2011 as a lower volume of customers were provided by our resellers.  Also, there were subcontractor costs for customer technical support that occurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 that did not occur during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011.

Net income increased for the three and six months  ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, primarily due to revenue growth partially offset by increases in cost of services, operating expenses and income taxes related to the growth in our business, each of which is described above.


Liquidity and Capital Resources


Our primary source of cash inflows are net remittances from customers for email services.  Such payments are typically received in advance of providing the services, yielding a deferred revenue liability on our balance sheet.  


Our primary sources of cash outflows include payroll, income tax payments and payments to vendors and third party service providers.  With the exception of income taxes, which occur on a periodic basis, cash outflows typically occur in close proximity of expense recognition.  


Net cash generated by operating activities increased approximately $278,000, or 237%, to $394,873 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, compared to $117,183 for the six months ended June 30, 2010.  The increase of cash generated by operating activities was attributable to an increase in net income of $216,000 and an increase in noncash charges of approximately $95,000, partially offset by $38,000 in reductions in working capital and other net operating assets.

  

Net cash used in investing activities was $(148,225) and $(3,164) during the six months ended June 30, 2011, and 2010, respectively, consisting of investments in computers, servers, other equipment and licensed software.  


Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities was $96,816 and $(100,000) during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.  During February and March of 2011, we issued and sold 400,000 shares of our common stock and received net proceeds of $96,816 after deducting offering costs of $3,184.  In February 2010, we provided a loan of $100,000 to one of our shareholders.  The loan was repaid by the shareholder in July 2010.

We had net working capital of $670,660 and $220,940 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  Our increase in net working capital from December 31, 2010 to June 30, 2011  primarily attributable to our increased cash, which increased to $934,527 at June 30, 2011 compared to $591,063 at December 31, 2010 and our reduced accrued liabilities, which decreased to $25,675 at June 30, 2011 compared to $172,282 at December 31, 2010.
