Explanatory Note

 

On December 22, 2011, we concluded that our interim financial statements for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 should no longer be relied upon because of errors within the financial statements.  The primary purpose of this Amendment No. 2 (the “Amendment”) to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 (the “Original Report”) is to disclose the restatement of the financial statements included therein.

 

A complete discussion of the restatement is included in the section of this Amendment titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Plan of Operation” to our restated financial statements for the quarter ended August 31, 2011.  We have also revised Item 4 of Part I, “Controls and Procedures” and Item 1A of Part II, “Risk Factors”.

 

This Amendment includes information contained in the Original Report, and we have made no attempt in the Amendment to modify or update the disclosures presented in the Original Report, except as identified above.  The disclosures in this Amendment continue to speak as of the date of the Original Report, and do not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Report.  This Amendment should be read in conjunction with our other filings made with the Securities and Exchange Commission subsequent to the filing of the Original Report, and any amendments to those filings.  The filing of this Amendment shall not be deemed to be an admission that the Original Report, when made, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement misleading.

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The accompanying unaudited interim financial statements of Augme Technologies, Inc. (“Augme”) 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 filed with the SEC on Form 10-K, as amended.

 

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, 2011 as reported in Form 10-K, as amended, have been omitted.

 

Restatement of Financial Statements

 

On December 22, 2011, we concluded that our financial statements for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 should no longer be relied upon because of errors within the financial statements.  The primary purpose of this Amendment No. 2 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 (the “Original Report”) is to disclose the restatement of our financial statements included therein.

 

The Company identified the following errors within its previously issued financial statements for the period noted.

 

Accounting for share-based payments and warrants - The Company corrected errors in the recognition of share-based payments. The Company incorrectly recognized expense related to share based payments issued to employees and service providers using the contractual term of the warrant rather than the corresponding vesting or requisite service period. Additionally, for certain warrants issued in connection with equity financings or issued in connection with the issuance of common stock, the Company incorrectly recognized warrant expense during the period, instead of classifying the amount as an adjustment to paid in capital. The errors related to the share-based payments impacted the quarterly interim period ended August 31, 2011, resulting in a decrease of $300,000 of warrant expense.

 

Accounting for business combinations — The Company corrected errors in the accounting for its business acquisitions of Hipcricket, Inc. (“Hipcricket”) and JAGTAG.  To correct the error related to the acquisition of Hipcricket the Company has recorded, as of the date of acquisition, an increase of $23,284,000 to goodwill and to acquisition related contingent consideration to reflect the fair value of the contingent consideration related to the earn-out described in Note 4.  The Company also incorrectly capitalized acquisition related transaction costs for the Hipcricket and JAGTAG business acquisitions, which should be expensed as incurred.  This change resulted in additional transaction expense of $696,616 during the six month period ended August 31, 2011.  These acquisitions were consummated during the Company’s second quarter ended August 31, 2011.

Revenue Recognition Policy

 

The Company provides access to its AD LIFE™ 4.0 and HIP 7.0 software-as-a-service (“SaaS”) mobile marketing platforms 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.

 

Contracts may include multiple deliverables such as production and delivery of media content, hosting, fees from content retention, delivery or placement of mobile or online advertising content. Contracts may also include multiple deliverables such as custom software creation, audio production, and delivery of online media content or hosting. Revenues from multiple 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, delivery or hosting period.

 

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.

 

Accounting Standards Codification

 

In July 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” which is codified in the ASC under Topic 105, “Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“ASC Topic 105”). ASC Topic 105 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) in the United States (the GAAP hierarchy). ASC Topic 105 shall be effective for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. We adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 105 during the third quarter of 2009.

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 Company’s 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.

 

During the three months ended August 31, 2011, we have recognized $60,000 in revenue per this agreement.

 

NOTE 4 — ACQUISITIONS

 

Acquisition of Hipcricket, Inc. Assets:  On August 25, 2011, Augme completed its acquisition of the business and substantially all of the assets of Hipcricket pursuant to the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement, dated August 25, 2011, between Augme and Hipcricket, as described under Item 1.01 of Augme’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 31, 2011. The Company has accounted for the acquisition as a business combination. The results of Hipcricket’s operations have been included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company since the date of the acquisition.

 

The estimated fair value of the consideration was $62.8 million, included $3 million in cash, $35.5 million in Augme’s common stock (11,457,359 shares at a price of $3.10), a $1 million promissory note, and $2 million to be paid to holders of Hipcricket options, which amount Augme may pay, at its discretion, in either cash or Augme’s common stock.  In addition, the transaction calls for a twelve-month earn-out payment to Hipcricket shareholders and employees, which if achieved will be no less than $15.0 million and may be as high as $27.5 million.  The earn-out may be paid in cash or Augme’s common stock at Augme’s discretion provided that the transaction remains a tax-free reorganization.  The contingent consideration recorded at the time of the acquisition was $23.3 million which is the discounted present value of the estimated earn-out of $25.2 million.

In the normal course of business, we may become involved in various legal proceedings.

Litigation Update

 

Tacoda, Inc. In 2007, Augme filed a lawsuit against Tacoda, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the 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”). On September 6, 2011, Judge McMahon issued a Supplemental Claims Construction ruling, which is believed to be favorable to the Company with respect to certain claim interpretations. This case remains pending. AOL, LLC, Time Warner, Inc., and Platform-A, Inc. On September 10, 2008, the Company filed a complaint against AOL, LLC in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California, seeking damages for alleged infringement of its trademark BOOMBOX RADIO. On January 21, 2009, the Company filed a First Amended Complaint against AOL, LLC, Time Warner, Inc. and Platform-A, Inc., for trademark infringement relating to the mark BOOMBOX RADIO, and infringement of the Company’s 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. This case also remains pending.

 

Yahoo! Inc. On November 16, 2009, Augme filed a complaint against Yahoo! Inc. seeking damages for alleged infringement relating to its U.S. Patent Nos. 6,594,691 and 7,269,636. 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 Augme, if successful, include an injunction prohibiting any infringing acts, an appropriate award of damages adequate to compensate the Company for the infringement, and potential attorneys’ fees 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 willful infringement, and to join World Talk Radio, LLC as a Counterclaim Defendant. Augme believes that there is no merit with respect to these counterclaims and will continue to vigorously pursue the prosecution of the claims related to Yahoo!’s infringement against the Company’s patents. On August 11, 2011, a Markman hearing was held at the United States District Court for the Northern District of California with Magistrate Judge Joseph C. Spero. On September 13, 2011, Judge Spero issued a Claims Construction Order, which is believed to be favorable to the Company with respect to certain claim interpretations. This case remains pending.

OVERVIEW

 

We provide strategic services and mobile technology to leading consumer and healthcare brands. Our sales are comprised of a combination of SaaS based sales, individual campaign fees, and mobile advertising fees.

 

We own the “Method and System for Adding Function to a Webpage” portfolio of patents, which cover technical processes and methods that we believe 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. Our AD LIFE™ 4.0 and HIP 7.0 SaaS mobile marketing technologies have been used in campaigns for such clients as Macy’s, MillerCoors, Nestle, KFC, and Clear Channel. Our technologies allow marketers, brands, and agencies the ability to plan, create, test, deploy, and track mobile marketing programs across mobile channels, including SMS, 2D/QR codes, mobile websites, advertising networks, social media and branded apps. AD LIFE™ 4.0 and HIP 7.0 facilitate consumer brand interactions and the ability to track and analyze campaign results. We believe that our patented device-detection and proprietary mobile content adaptation software provides a solution to the mobile marketing industry problem of disparate operating systems, device types, and on-screen mobile content rendering. We also provide business to consumer utilities including national mobile couponing solutions, strategic mobile healthcare tools, custom mobile application development, and consumer data tracking and analytics. We are headquartered in New York City.

 

On August 25, 2011, we completed our acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Hipcricket, Inc. (“Hipcricket”). Hipcricket provides a cloud-based mobile marketing and advertising SaaS platform that empowers its clients to engage customers, drive loyalty, and increase sales by creating, analyzing, and optimizing integrated mobile marketing campaigns and enterprise class solutions. Hipcricket’s clients connect with consumers across every mobile channel, including SMS, 2D/QR codes, mobile Web sites, advertising networks, social media and branded apps. Hipcricket has also created the first comprehensive permission-based mobile ad network, targeting customers via location and highly-specific demographic information across SMS, display, rich media and video.

Table of Contents

 

On July 22, 2011, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of JAGTAG, Inc. Unlike other 2D barcode systems, JAGTAG delivers multimedia to both smartphones and standard phones without requiring the consumer to download an application prior to use. As a result, JAGTAG can share video, images, music and text with more mobile consumers than mobile web-dependent media. Anywhere mobile consumers encounter JAGTAGs, they can use their phones to request and immediately receive multimedia content, including video, audio, pictures, coupons and text.

 

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.

 

As a result of the change in our business strategy, we executed an Asset Purchase Agreement, effective January 1, 2010 which 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. 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.

 

Our goal is to be the leading provider of mobile marketing. The principal elements of our strategy to achieve this goal are to:

 

· capitalize upon our existing patented technology to further develop new product innovations and licensing opportunities, fully leveraging the value of our technology and patent portfolio;

· invest in our platform to address changes in our end markets and technology;

· further penetrate brands within our existing customer base and add new strategic relationships with brands and advertising agencies;

· grow our revenue and focus on achieving profitability;

· continue to pursue strategic acquisitions that will increase our market share, technology leadership or our expanding geographic footprint; and

· monetize the value of our intellectual property through patent enforcement, licensing and collaboration efforts.

 

Restatement of Financial Statements

 

On December 22, 2011, we concluded that our interim financial statements for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 should no longer be relied upon because of errors within the financial statements.  The primary purpose of this Amendment No. 2 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 (the “Original Report”) is to disclose the restatement of our financial statements included therein.

 

The Company identified the following errors within its previously issued financial statements for the period noted.

 

Accounting for share-based payments and warrants - The Company corrected errors in the recognition of share-based payments. The Company incorrectly recognized expense related to share based payments issued to employees and service providers, using the contractual term of the warrant rather than the corresponding vesting or requisite service period.  Additionally, for certain warrants issued in connection with equity financing's or issued in connection with the issuance of common stock, the Company incorrectly recognized warrant expense during the period, instead of classifying the amount as an adjustment to paid in capital. The errors related to the share-based payments impacted the quarterly interim period ended August 31, 2011 by a decrease of $300,000 to warrant expense.

 

Accounting for business combinations — The Company corrected errors in the accounting for its business acquisitions of Hipcricket, Inc. (“Hipcricket”) and JAGTAG.  To correct the error related to the acquisition of Hipcricket the Company has recorded, as of the date of the acquisition, an increase in the amount of $23,284,000 to goodwill and to acquisition related contingent consideration to reflect the fair value of the contingent consideration related to the earn-out described in Note 4 to our restated financial statements.  The Company also incorrectly capitalized acquisition related transaction costs for the Hipcricket and JAGTAG business acquisitions, which should be expensed as incurred.  This change resulted in additional transaction expense of $696,616 during the six month period ended August 31, 2011.  These acquisitions were consummated during the Company’s second quarter ended August 31, 2011.

Trends, Events and Uncertainties

 

On August 25, 2011 (the “Closing Date”) we acquired all of the assets of Hipcricket, including its intellectual property, and we assumed certain liabilities. Among the liabilities we assumed were liabilities arising after the Closing Date that were in connection with or incidental to our ownership of the acquired assets.

 

In December 2008, Hipcricket received a letter from TeleComunications Systems, Inc. (“TCS”) alleging patent infringement related to wireless messaging. To date, TCS had not instituted any legal action against Hipcricket relating to these allegations. Since June 2010 five Hipcricket clients received infringement notices from Helferich Patent Licensing, LLC (“Helferich”) involving multiple patents and these clients sought indemnity from Hipcricket against these claims. To date, Helferich does not assert that Hipcricket’s patents or technology have infringed Helferich’s patents.

 

A portion of the aggregate share consideration we paid to Hipcricket for its assets was placed in escrow (the “Indemnification Escrow”) with our transfer agent, and a portion of the Indemnification Escrow (the “IP Escrow”) will be held for a period of one year from the Closing Date, and the IP Escrow will be held for a period of two years from the Closing Date, in order to secure any damages that may result from any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant of Hipcricket in the Amended and Restated Asset Purchase Agreement, any liability arising out of the ownership or operation of the assets prior to the Closing Date other than assumed liabilities, and certain retained liabilities of Hipcricket. In addition, the IP Escrow will be available to secure any damages that may arise relating to any infringement claims involving Hipcricket’s intellectual property and other costs related to resolving any such claims.

 

While we believe that it is unlikely that either TCS or Helferich would be successful in prevailing in an action for patent infringement against us as the current owners of the patents at issue, we cannot assure you that will be the case and we have made no assessment of what the damages could be if such an action were filed and either TCS or Helferich prevailed on its claims.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements. We do not participate in transactions that generate relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, such as entities often referred to as structured finance or special purpose entities, often established for the purpose of facilitating off-balance sheet arrangements or other contractually narrow or limited purposes.

 

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. Our significant accounting policies are disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 28, 2011. We have not materially changed our significant accounting policies.

 

Revenue Recognition Policy

 

We provide access to our AD LIFE™ 4.0 and HIP 7.0 SaaS mobile marketing platforms 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. We also offer 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.

 

Contracts may include multiple deliverables such as production and delivery of media content, hosting, fees from content retention, delivery or placement of mobile or online advertising content. Contracts may also include multiple deliverables such as custom software creation, audio production, and delivery of online media content or hosting. Revenues from multiple 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, delivery or hosting period.

 

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 we have demonstrated our 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.

 

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). We utilize 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. We classify 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.

 

19



Table of Contents

 

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. Our 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 our operations compares the quarter ended August 31, 2011 with the quarter ended August 31, 2010, 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.

 

Three Months Ended August 31, 2011 compared to Three Months Ended August 31, 2010

 

For the quarter ended August 31, 2011, revenues were $1,287,122 compared to $718,717 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010, an increase of 79%. The resulting increase is directly related to the added emphasis on providing mobile media services and in part due to the acquisitions of the assets of Hipcricket, Inc. and JAGTAG, Inc. Production and service delivery costs were $412,347 for the August 31, 2011 quarter compared to $251,711 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010 reflecting additional costs related to the addition of employees necessary to facilitate the delivery of the mobile media services.

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $6,582,791 for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 compared with $2,180,524 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010, an increase of 202%. This includes expenses for payroll, accounting, professional services, consulting fees and patent research costs.

 

Stock, option and warrant non-cash expenses totaled $1,858,112 for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 compared with $799,279 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010, a increase of 132%, and consisted of the fair value accounting for stock options and certain expenses that were paid with shares of our common stock.

 

Depreciation and amortization expense was $300,724 for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 compared with $244,257 in the quarter ended August 31, 2010, an increase of 23%. Amortization expense increased to $223,570 for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 compared to $174,805 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010. Depreciation expense for the quarter ended August 31, 2011 increased to $77,154 compared to $69,452 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010. The total increase in depreciation and amortization relates to the increased fixed assets purchased in the second quarter of last year.

 

Interest income was $5,156 for the three months ended August 31, 2011 compared with interest income of $6 for the quarter ended August 31, 2010.

 

During the quarter ended August 31, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $6,003,584 compared to a net loss of $1,957,769 in the prior year quarter, an increase of $4,045,815 or 207%. The increase in the net loss is a result of increased expenses, including non-cash expenses, as described above.

 

Six Months Ended August 31, 2011 compared to Six Months Ended August 31, 2010

 

For the six months ended August 31, 2011, revenues were $2,492,909 compared to $1,005,040 for the six months ended August 31, 2010, an increase of 148%. The increase in overall revenues was due to increased customer demand for our Ad Life platform and due to the acquisitions of the assets of Hipcricket, Inc. and JAGTAG, Inc. Production and service delivery costs were $775,279 for the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared to $485,038 during the six months ended August 31, 2010, an increase of 60%, 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.

 

20



Table of Contents

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $11,204,074 for the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared with $3,722,581 for the six months ended August 31, 2010, a change of $7,481,493, or 201%. The change in expense was primarily due to increased staffing and employee benefits and outside contracting costs associated with an increased level of product development and delivery. Of these administrative expenses, $4,470,452 of the increase is related to increased staffing and compensation levels in sales and general management, and $932,166 in professional fees is related to investor relations, accounting, legal, software development, other consulting fees and other expenses.

 

Stock, option and warrant non-cash expense was $3,500,345 for the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared with $1,414,297 for the six months ended August 31, 2010, an increase of 147%, and consisted of the fair value accounting for stock options and certain expenses that were paid with shares of our common stock. Depreciation and amortization expense was $553,256 for the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared with $491,716 in the comparable 2010 period, an increase of 13%. Amortization expense increased to $392,386 for the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared to $350,025 for the comparable 2010 period. Depreciation expense for the six months ended August 31, 2011 increased to $160,870 compared to $141,691 for the six months ended August 31, 2010. The increase in depreciation and amortization relates to the increased fixed assets purchased during the second quarter last year.

 

Interest income was $19,530 for the six months ended August 31, 2011 compared with interest income of $16 for the six months ended August 31, 2010.

 

For the six months ended August 31, 2011, the Company incurred a net loss of $10,020,170 compared to a net loss of $3,694,279 in the comparable prior year period, an increase of $6,325,891 or 58%. The increase in the net loss is a result of increased direct expenses, increased selling, general and administrative expenses and non-cash stock option and warrant expense, as described above.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

During the fiscal quarter ended August 31, 2011, we raised $922,588 of capital through the exercise of options and warrants.

 

As of August 31, 2011, we had cash balances of $3,174,474 and net working capital of $3,841,119, excluding the acquisition contingent consideration of $23,284,000, to be paid in stock and cash, if certain provisions are met.

 

Due to the sustained and substantial progress in the procurement of necessary working capital required to meet operating and general corporate expenditures, we believe that we will have enough cash flow from operations and from financing sources to continue for the next twelve months. Specifically, we have had discussions with existing warrant holders and other prospective financing sources which lead us to believe that we will be able to obtain the capital necessary to not only maintain current operations, but also to develop and implement our growth strategy in our core businesses as well as ensure a vigorous effort in protecting our intellectual property. However, developing and expanding our business will require significant additional capital and other expenditures and we have no committed sources of financing. If we are unable to raise funds as and when we need them, we may be required to curtail our operation.

 

During the six months ended August 31, 2011, we used $5,991,420 of cash in operating activities. Cash was used primarily to fund our net loss.

 

We used $3,900,141 of cash in investing activities during the six months ended August 31, 2011. Cash was used for acquisitions and for the costs incurred in the defense of legal actions related to our patents. During the six months ended August 31, 2011, we used a total of $932,347 in cash for the costs incurred in defense of the legal actions related to our patents. During the six months ended August 31, 2011, we received $1,883,679 in cash from the exercise of stock options and warrants.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”) is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that, as of August 31, 2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective due to material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses were caused by the lack of personnel resources with technical accounting expertise who could timely prevent or detect errors relating to accounting for share-based payments and identifying and accounting for business combinations.

 

Under the direction of the Audit Committee, management will continue to review and make any changes it deems necessary to the overall design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, including implementing improvements in policies and procedures. We are working to remediate the identified material weaknesses by improving our internal controls and procedures by ensuring we have resources with sufficient knowledge and understanding of applicable generally accepted accounting principles and regulatory reporting requirements for our industry, including the recent appointment of a new Chief Financial Officer.  Additionally, we are implementing a share-based payment reporting system that will enhance our ability to track and report on our share-based payment activity during the period.

 

There have been no other material changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended August 31, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

 

Failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 may result in a reduction in the price of our common shares.

 

We are required to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and related regulations.  Any material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting that needs to be addressed, or disclosure of a material weakness in management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting, may reduce the price of our common shares because investors may lose confidence in our financial reporting.

 

22



Table of Contents

 

We have identified errors in our financial statements for the quarter ended August 31, 2011.  We have restated our financial statements for this period to correct the accounting treatment for these errors.  In conjunction with restating our financial statements, we have identified weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting that were material weaknesses as defined by standards established by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.  While we intend to attempt to remediate the weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we cannot provide assurance that we will be successful in these remediation attempts or that we will not be subject to material weaknesses in the future.

 

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting as of August 31, 2011 resulted from our failure to maintain effective processes and controls over the accounting for and reporting of complex and non-routine transactions. Specifically, we did not have an appropriate level of technical knowledge, experience and training in the accounting for business combinations and stock-based compensation. This control deficiency resulted in the restatement of our financial statements.
