Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Organization and Nature of Operations

Social Reality, Inc. ("Social Reality", “we”, “us” or "the Company") is a Delaware corporation formed on August 2, 2011. Effective January 1, 2012 we acquired all of the member interests and operations of Social Reality, LLC, a California limited liability company formed on August 14, 2009, which began business in May of 2010, in exchange for 12,328,767 shares of our Class A and Class B common stock. The former members of Social Reality, LLC owned all of our common stock after the acquisition. Social Reality, LLC is referred to as our predecessor in these financial statements.

Social Reality is primarily an approved and accredited Facebook advertising network company. We sell targeted and measurable online advertising campaigns and programs to brand advertisers and advertising agencies across large Facebook apps and large websites, generating qualified Facebook likes and quantifiable engagement for our clients, driving online sales and increased brand equity. We also create custom applications for large brands that leverage traffic on our partner sites to seed the applications to help them go viral.

We create these applications as custom programs and build them on a campaign by campaign basis as well as offer them on a self-service subscription basis through our GroupAd platform. GroupAd allows brand marketers to select from a number of pre created applications and then deploy them into their social media channels.

We also provide inventory to real time bidding exchanges (RTB) through our network of website partners. We provide the service of yield optimization for these partners and deliver the highest possible price for inventory provided from our partners to the exchange.

We offer our customers a number of pricing options including cost-per-thousand-impression ("CPM"), whereby our customers pay based on the number of times the target audience is exposed to the advertisement, and cost-per-engagement ("CPE"), whereby payment is triggered only when an individual takes a specific activity.

We are headquartered in Los Angeles, California.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed financial statements are unaudited. The unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

These interim financial statements as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013 or for any future period. All references to June 30, 2013 and 2012 in these footnotes are unaudited.

These unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2012, included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 1, 2013.

The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all disclosures required by the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Use of Estimates

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States require management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

The most significant area that requires management judgment and which is susceptible to possible change in the near term include the Company's revenue recognition policies, discussed elsewhere in these financial statements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all short-term highly liquid investments with a remaining maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued).

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable.

Revenues from certain sales of targeted and measurable online advertising campaigns and programs to brand advertisers and advertising agencies are recognized on a net basis as the payments to the websites on which the advertising is placed for these specific transactions are based on cash actually collected from the advertisers and agencies, rather than the actual fees billed to the advertisers and agencies. Revenue from sales of targeted and measurable online advertising campaigns and programs for which we bear risk of loss and from sponsored and custom campaigns is recognized on a gross basis in the period that no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable. Expenses that are directly related to a revenue-generating event are recorded as a component of cost of revenue.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue consists of payments to website publishers that are directly related to a revenue-generating event and project and application design costs. The Company becomes obligated to make payments related to website publishers in the period the advertising impressions, click-throughs, actions or lead-based information are delivered or occur. Such expenses are classified as cost of revenue in the corresponding period in which the revenue is recognized in the accompanying income statement.

Accounts Receivable

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made. No allowance was recorded as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The Company usually does not require collateral.

Concentration of Credit Risk, Significant Customers and Supplier Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Cash and cash equivalents are deposited in the United States. The balances in the United States held at any one financial institution are generally in excess of Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limits.

At June 30, 2013, two customers accounted for more than 10% of the accounts receivable balance, for a total of 83%. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 two customers accounted for 73% of total revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 four customers accounted for 94% of total revenue.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, net accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses, note payable and put liability payable, are carried at historical cost. At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 the carrying amounts of these instruments approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Loss Per Share

We use ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” for calculating the basic and diluted loss per share. We compute basic loss per share by dividing net loss and net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Basic and diluted loss per share are the same, in that any potential common stock equivalents would have the effect of being anti-dilutive in the computation of net loss per share. There were 529,001 and 185,000 common share equivalents at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 these potential shares were excluded from the shares used to calculate diluted earnings per share as their inclusion would reduce net loss per share.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards if currently adopted would have a material effect on the accompanying financial statements.

Note 2 – Going Concern.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company's assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $1,913,735 as of June 30, 2013 and has incurred a net loss of $654,876 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. In addition, the Company’s current liabilities exceed its current assets by $745,772 at June 30, 2013. These factors raise substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Continuation of the Company as a going concern is dependent upon the continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and increase revenue. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

During February 2013 the Company entered into a revolving credit facility agreement which resulted in net cash proceeds to the Company of approximately $258,000. We received additional net cash proceeds of $228,575 pursuant to this agreement in June, 2013. We anticipate that this additional working capital will enable us to fund operations as we enter into new advertising contracts and aggressively pursue additional revenue sources.

Note 3 – Note Payable.

Credit Facility:

Effective February 22, 2013, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with TCA Global Credit Master Fund, LP (the "Lender"). Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Lender agreed to loan up to $5,000,000 for working capital purposes. A total of $300,000 was funded by Lender in connection with the closing and we received net proceeds of $257,850. The amounts borrowed pursuant to the Credit Agreement are evidenced by a revolving promissory note (“Revolving Note”), the repayment of which is secured by a security agreement (“Security Agreement”) executed by the Company. Pursuant to the Security Agreement, the repayment of the Revolving Note is secured by a security interest in substantially all of our assets in favor of Lender. The initial Revolving Note in the amount of $300,000 is due and payable along with interest thereon on August 22, 2013, unless extended an additional six months so long as no Event of Default has occurred, and bears interest at the rate of 18% per annum.

Additionally, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, as defined in the Credit Agreement or the Revolving Note, Lender may convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, and any other sums due and payable under the Revolving Note into shares of our Class A common stock at a conversion price equal to 85% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of our common stock during the five (5) trading days immediately prior to such applicable conversion date, in each case subject to Lender not being able to beneficially own more than 4.99% of our outstanding common stock upon any conversion.

We also agreed to pay Lender various fees during the term of the Credit Agreement, including a $1,500 asset monitoring fee (which increases as additional amounts are borrowed under the Credit Agreement) due each quarter that the Credit Agreement is outstanding, a commitment fee of 4 % of the revolving loan commitment and 2% of any increase in the amount thereof, other associated fees as more fully disclosed in the Credit Agreement. We also paid Lender due diligence and document review fees of $22,500 in connection with the closing. In total, we incurred $42,150 in fees, expenses and other costs at closing which were deducted from the proceeds, and netted $257,850 in connection with the execution of the Credit Agreement.

We also agreed to pay Lender a fee of $100,000, payable in the form of 99,010 shares of Class A common stock (the “Facility Fee Shares”). In the event that Facility Fee Shares are sold for less than $100,000, we have to pay Lender the balance of $100,000 less the amount of proceeds from the sale, or alternatively issue additional shares in an amount as to reach the $100,000 aggregate. Because of the potential of the transfer of assets to settle this fee, we have recorded $100,000 as a liability on the balance sheet at June 30, 2013.

In total, we incurred costs aggregating $166,633, including the amount allocated to the Facility Fee Shares. These costs are being amortized over the term on the note. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we have amortized $83,316 and $118,108, respectively, of these costs as interest expense.

The Credit Agreement imposes certain restrictions on Company, including on its ability to (i) incur any Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement), (ii) incur liens, (iii) make investments, (iv) permit a Change in Control (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or dispose of all or substantially all of its assets, (v) make capital expenditures not in the ordinary course of its business, (vi) make distributions to its shareholders, (vii) engage in any line of business other than the business engaged in on the date of the Credit Agreement and businesses reasonably related thereto, and (viii) enter into transactions with any affiliates except in the ordinary course of business and upon fair and reasonable terms that are no less favorable to Company than it would obtain in an arm-length's basis with a non-affiliate. Each of these restrictions is subject to certain exceptions, as specified in the Credit Agreement.

Note 3 – Note Payable (continued).

Credit Facility Amendment:

On June 11, 2013, we entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) which increased our credit line to $550,000. The amounts borrowed pursuant to the Amended Credit Agreement are evidenced by a convertible Replacement Revolving Note in the principal amount of $550,000 (the “Amended Revolving Note”), due August 22, 2013, which amended, restated and replaced the initial revolving note delivered TCA in February 2012.

The Amended Revolving Note also included a new make-whole provision. In the event TCA should elect to convert the note pursuant to its terms, and if upon the sale of those shares of our common stock it does not realize net proceeds equal to the principal amount and accrued interest due under the note so converted, we are obligated to issue TCA additional shares of our common stock at a per share price equal to the average volume weighted price of our common stock during the five business days before the notice of conversion.

Upon the closing of the second draw under the Credit Agreement, we paid TCA a transaction advisory fee of 2% ($5,000), due diligence fees of $2,500, legal fees of TCA’s counsel and out of pocket charges of $8,925 and a finder’s fee of $5,000 to Meyers Associates, LP, a broker dealer. In total, we incurred $21,425 in fees, expenses and other costs at closing which were deducted from the proceeds, and netted $228,575 in connection with the execution of the second draw under the Credit Agreement.

We also paid TCA an advisory fee of $75,000 which was paid through the issuance of 75,000 shares of our common stock (the “Advisory Shares”). In the event TCA does not receive at least $75,000 in net proceeds from the sale of those Advisory Shares, we are obligated to issue TCA additional shares of our common stock in an amount sufficient that, when sold, provides net proceeds to TCA equal to the $75,000 advisory fee. Because of the potential of the transfer of assets to settle this fee, we have recorded $75,000 as a liability on the balance sheet at June 30, 2013.

In total, we incurred costs aggregating $108,104, including the amount allocated to the Advisory Shares. These costs are being amortized over the term of the note. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we have amortized $29,617 of these costs as interest expense.

ITEM 2.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes to those statements that are included elsewhere in this report. Our discussion includes forward- looking statements based upon current expectations that involve risks and uncertainties, such as our plans, objectives, expectations and intentions. Actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including those set forth under the Item 1A, Risk Factors, Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements and Business sections in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, this report, and our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  We use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. In addition, any statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated growth and trends in our businesses, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements. Such statements are based on our current expectations and could be affected by the uncertainties and risk factors described throughout this report.

Our Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is provided in addition to the accompanying financial statements and notes in order to assist the reader in understanding our results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows. Our MD&A is organized as follows:

Overview — Summary of our business in order to provide context for the remainder of MD&A.

Critical Accounting Policies — Accounting policies that we believe are important to understanding the assumptions and judgments incorporated in our reported financial results and forecasts.

Results of Operations — Analysis of our financial results comparing the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013 to the comparable periods of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources — An analysis of changes in our balance sheets and cash flows, and discussion of our financial condition including recent developments and potential sources of liquidity.

Overview

We develop and sell social media advertising campaigns and programs to brand advertisers and digital advertising agencies. Our company delivers these programs across third party social networks, applications and targeted websites such as Facebook.

We currently derive our revenues from the:

·

sales of inventory from our publishing partners on real-time bidding, or RTB, exchanges,

·

licensing of our GroupAd platform on a managed basis,

·

sale of media to drive engagement to our GroupAd programs, and

·

Creation of custom programs for large brands.

Our focus is to provide technology tools that enable both publishers and advertisers to maximize their digital advertising initiatives. The three core elements of our business are:

SRAX – Real Time Bidding sell side representation. Our technology assists publishers in delivering their inventory to the RTB exchanges. Our tools provide reporting to these publishers about the sales of their inventory on theses exchanges. We assist publishers in maximizing their yield and thus maximizing the revenue they generate. We contract with web and mobile publishers to sell their inventory on the RTB exchanges. This consists of contacting the publishers and having them sign up on our portal to become one of our publishing partners. Once they sign up, the traffic they deliver is evaluated; once the site is approved, we provide them with assets that allow us to deliver advertising to their approved sites or applications. The price that advertisers are willing to pay for any specific placement is determined in real time and we seek to deliver the highest paid ad at any given time.

GroupAd. GroupAd is a social media and loyalty platform that allows brands to launch and manage their social media initiatives. GroupAd allows brand marketers to select from a number of pre-created applications, and then launch these applications on their social media sites. GroupAd also provides an online loyalty program that rewards users for being brand advocates. GroupAd allows brands to identify who their brand advocates are and then provide the brands the tools to communicate and reward the advocates. This platform is currently provided on a managed basis, whereby large advertisers and their agencies contract with us to manage their programs utilizing the GroupAd technology. During the third quarter of 2013 we expect to provide the platform on a self-service basis. This will allow both large and small brands to launch programs on their own, and manage these programs accordingly. We generate revenue from GroupAd from brands who license the platform from us on a managed basis to deliver a social media application, and in some cases a loyalty application as well. These fees are paid on a monthly basis and are recurring in nature for as long as the brand is utilizing the platform. The amount that a brand pays for the platform is calculated by the number of social media followers they have on different social networks.

Social Reality Innovations. Brands need new and innovative programs to stay ahead of the market. Our innovation group works with the world’s largest brands such as Sears, Macy’s, Toyota and others to develop mobile and social applications that become the standard for the market. These applications are a breeding ground for those applications that are then added to the GroupAd platform. We generate our revenue in this unit through the creation of custom programs. This includes conceptualizing, launching and managing these programs. Our fees are typically paid up front for these services. We also provide media services from this unit which include buying media to drive engagements to our custom built programs and to our GroupAd programs.

Going Concern

We reported net losses of approximately $655,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and $1.26 million for 2012, we have an accumulated deficit of $1,913,735 since inception through June 30, 2013 and we have a deficit in working capital of $745,772 at June 30, 2013. The report of our independent registered public accounting firm on our financial statements for 2012 contains an explanatory paragraph regarding our ability to continue as a going concern based on our 2012 loss and deficit in working capital. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. Our financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. There are no assurances we will be successful in our efforts to increase our revenues and report profitable operations or to continue as a going concern, in which event investors would lose their entire investment in our company.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our MD&A is based on our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses for each period. The following represents a summary of our critical accounting policies, defined as those policies that we believe are the most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations and that require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain.

Revenue recognition.

We recognize revenue when the following criteria have been met: persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the related receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable.

Revenues from certain sales of targeted and measurable online advertising campaigns and programs to brand advertisers and advertising agencies are recognized on a net basis, provided that no Company obligations remain. The payments to the websites on which the advertising is placed for these specific transactions are based on cash actually collected from the advertisers and agencies, rather than the actual fees billed to the advertisers and agencies. The Company bears no risk of loss in these transactions. Revenue from sales of targeted and measurable online advertising campaigns and programs for which we bear risk of loss and from sponsored and custom campaigns is recognized on a gross basis in the period that no significant Company obligations remain, collection of the resulting receivable is reasonably assured, and the fees are fixed or determinable. Expenses that are directly related to a revenue-generating event are recorded as a component of cost of revenue.

Accounts receivable allowances.

Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial condition and other factors. Management periodically assesses the Company’s accounts receivable and, if necessary, establishes an allowance for estimated uncollectible amounts. Accounts determined to be uncollectible are charged to operations when that determination is made.

Use of estimates.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") require management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions in the preparation of these unaudited condensed financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions.

Results of Operations

Revenue

Revenue increased 17% to $495,209 for the second quarter of 2013 as compared to $424,068 for the second quarter of 2012 but decreased 20% to $666,661 for the first half of 2013 as compared to $830,415 for the first half of 2012. We are in the process of transitioning from a campaign only based model to a monthly recurring revenue model combined with campaign revenue. We have seen month over month increases in the monthly recurring revenue model for our Social Reality Ad Exchange product and anticipate the same for our self-service GroupAd product. In the past we have experienced significant swings in quarterly revenue, due to the timing of the launch of large advertising programs from one quarter to the next. This was the case for the first quarter of 2012 in which we had a large program launch. While we cannot be certain of the success of our newly launched recurring revenue models we anticipate that they will provide for consistent month over month revenue growth and balance the spikes in revenue from one quarter to the next.

Revenues from online advertising campaigns and programs to brand advertisers and advertising agencies and from sponsored and custom campaigns totaled $154,143 and $424,068 for the second quarter of 2013 and the second quarter of 2012, respectively. Revenues from online advertising campaigns and programs to brand advertisers and advertising agencies and from sponsored and custom campaigns totaled $245,018 and $830,415 for the first half of 2013 and the first half of 2012, respectively. These revenues have decreased year over year due to the factors reported in the previous paragraph.

Revenue from our Social Reality Ad Exchange product totaled $314,066 for the second quarter of 2013, with none in second quarter of 2012. Revenue from our Social Reality Ad Exchange product totaled $394,643 for the first half of 2013, with none in first half of 2012. This product, which launched in January 2013, has experienced monthly growth rates of 70%, 130%, 17%, 56% and 96% for February, March, April, May and June, 2013, respectively. While we cannot be certain that we will maintain this type of growth, we are optimistic about the recurring revenue from this product.

---

 

Revenue from our GroupAd product totaled $27,000 for the second quarter of 2013, with none in second quarter of 2012 and totaled $27,000 for the first half of 2013, with none in the first half of 2012.

Revenue recognized on a net basis has been generated primarily from traditional banner advertising and social engagement ads. We expect that in the future most, if not all, of our revenue will be recognized on a gross basis, as our future payments to websites will not be based on billings collected.

Cost of Revenue

Cost of revenue increased 27% for the second quarter of 2013 from the comparable period in 2012. Cost of revenue as a percent of revenue was 61% for the second quarter of 2013 compared to 56% for first quarter of 2012. Cost of revenue decreased 3% for the first half of 2013 from the comparable period in 2012. Cost of revenue as a percent of revenue was 61% for the first half of 2013 compared to 51% for first half of 2012. Cost of revenue consists of certain labor costs, payments to website publishers and others that are directly related to a revenue-generating event and project and application design costs. The Company becomes obligated to make payments related to website publishers in the period the advertising impressions, click-throughs, actions or lead-based information are delivered or occur. Such expenses are classified as cost of revenue in the corresponding period in which the revenue is recognized in the accompanying income statement.

Approximately 99% of cost of revenue for the second quarter of 2013 was attributable to payments to website publishers and others. The balance of our second quarter of 2013 cost was attributable to labor costs and project and application design costs. Approximately 94% of our second quarter of 2012 cost of revenue was attributable to payments to website publishers and others, with the balance attributable to labor costs and project and application design costs.

Approximately 98% of cost of revenue for the first half of 2013 was attributable to payments to website publishers and others. The balance of our first half of 2013 cost was attributable to labor costs and project and application design costs. Approximately 82% of our first half of 2012 cost of revenue was attributable to payments to website publishers and others, with the balance attributable to labor costs and project and application design costs.

Operating Expenses

Operating expense decreased 21% for the second quarter of 2013 from the comparable period in 2012. Operating expense also decreased 15% for the first half of 2013 from the comparable period in 2012. Our operating expenses have decreased year over year as we have implemented cost cutting measures to conserve our available cash until revenues return to previous levels.

We expect that our operating expenses will increase again as our business grows and we devote additional resources towards promoting that growth.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We use Adjusted net income (loss) to measure our overall results because we believe it better reflects our net results by excluding the impact of non-cash equity based compensation. We use Adjusted EBITDA to measure our operations by excluding certain additional non-cash expenses. We believe the presentation of Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA enhances our investors’ overall understanding of the financial performance of our business.

You should not consider Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA as an alternative to net income (loss), determined in accordance with GAAP, as an indicator of operating performance. A directly comparable GAAP measure to Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA is net income (loss). The following is a reconciliation of net income (loss) to Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted EBITDA:

		For the Three Months Ended June 30,						For the Six Months Ended June 30,
(unaudited, in thousands)		2013			2012			2013			2012
Net income (loss)		$	(278	)	$	(249	)	$	(655	)	$	(476	)
plus:
Equity based compensation			46			21			93			60
Adjusted net income (loss)		$	(232	)	$	(228	)	$	(562	)	$	(416	)
Interest expense			127			—			166			—
Depreciation of property, plant and equipment			2			—			3			—
Adjusted EBITDA		$	(103	)	$	(228	)	$	(393	)	$	(416	)

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is the ability of a company to generate sufficient cash to satisfy its needs for cash. As of June 30, 2013 we had approximately $34,000 in cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficit of $745,772, as compared to cash and cash equivalents of approximately $106,000 and a working capital deficit of $40,415 at December 31, 2012. Our principal sources of operating capital have been equity financings and, in February and June 2013, debt financing. Effective February 22, 2013, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility agreement which provided net proceeds of approximately $258,000. On June 11, 2013, we entered into an amended credit facility agreement which provided additional net proceeds of approximately $229,000. Our current availability under the facility is $550,000. We can request an increase in the availability; however, any increase is subject to approval by the lender and there are no assurances the lender will grant our request. In addition, this line matures on August 22, 2013. On the due date of the note, so long as no event of default exists, and that no event has occurred that, with the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both, would constitute an event of default, we have the right to request an extension of the due date the note for one additional six month period. In such event, the lender is obligated to accept our request for the one time, six month extension, subject to execution by us of any documents or instruments reasonably requested by the lender to evidence such extension. We expect to request such an extension. During 2012 and 2011, we sold approximately $473,000, and $300,000, respectively, of our equity securities.

We are in the early stages of the implementation of our business growth strategy and may require additional financing in order to accelerate our growth. Based on our current expansion plans, we no longer generate enough cash to fund our operations and our working capital is not sufficient for our needs for the next 12 months. Based on our estimates and current business plan, we anticipate expenses of approximately $80,000 per month of cash in excess of cash provided by our operations. Accordingly, in order to continue to execute our growth strategy, we will need to either significantly increase our revenue, or secure additional financing of approximately $2 million. Such financing may come in the form of either equity or debt financing or a combination of both. The issuance by us of any additional equity securities pursuant to any future fundraising activities undertaken by us would dilute the ownership of existing stockholders and may reduce the price of our common stock. The use of debt financing, if available, will require payment of interest and may involve restrictive covenants that could impose limitations on our operating flexibility and reduce our cash available for operations. However, we do not have any commitments for additional working capital and there are no assurances the capital will be available to us. In that event, we will be required to scale back our growth strategy and otherwise curtail some or all of our operations.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

We used $385,573 of cash in our operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to $266,678 used by our operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in cash used in operating activities was primarily attributable to a decrease in net collections on accounts receivable partially offset by a decreases in expenditures for prepayments, taxes and accounts payable and other liabilities.

Net Cash Used by Investing Activities

We used $18,000 for the purchase of furniture and equipment during the six months ended June 30, 2012, with no expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Net Cash Provided by Financing Activities

During the six months ended June 30, 2013 we received $486,425 in cash from financing activities during the period from the proceeds of a credit facility. We paid costs of $36,162 related to this facility and repaid $136,258 of the revolving credit facility.

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 we received $472,959 in cash from financing activities from the sale of equity interests.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The recent accounting standards that have been issued or proposed by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) or other standards-setting bodies that do not require adoption until a future date are not expected to have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption.

Off balance sheet arrangements

As of the date of this report, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors. The term "off-balance sheet arrangement" generally means any transaction, agreement or other contractual arrangement to which an entity unconsolidated with us is a party, under which we have any obligation arising under a guarantee contract, derivative instrument or variable interest or a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to such entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support for such assets.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. We are required to maintain “disclosure controls and procedures” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this report, our Chief Executive Officer who also serves as our Chief Financial Officer, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective. As a newly public company, we are still in the process of formally adopting comprehensive policies to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. We expect to complete the adoption of these comprehensive policies during 2013 which will ensure that the information relating to our company, required to be disclosed in our Securities and Exchange Commission reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
