CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of The Pulse Network, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), contains “forward-looking statements,” as defined in the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may”, “will”, “should”, “could”, “expects”, “plans”, “intends”, “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “predicts”, “potential” or “continue” or the negative of such terms and other comparable terminology.  These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements about our market opportunity, our strategies, competition, expected activities and expenditures as we pursue our business plan, and the adequacy of our available cash resources.  Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot guarantee future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements.  Actual results may differ materially from the predictions discussed in these forward-looking statements.  The economic environment within which we operate could materially affect our actual results. Additional factors that could materially affect these forward-looking statements and/or predictions include, among other things: the possibility that we will not receive sufficient customers to grow our business, the Company’s need for and ability to obtain additional financing, the exercise of the approximately 90.9% control the Company’s officers and directors hold of the Company’s voting securities, other factors over which we have little or no control; and other factors discussed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
 
Our management has included projections and estimates in this Form 10-Q, which are based primarily on management’s experience in the industry, assessments of our results of operations, discussions and negotiations with third parties and a review of information filed by our competitors with the SEC or otherwise publicly available.  We caution readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made.  We disclaim any obligation subsequently to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2013 and 2012
 
1.
OUTLOOK
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company has limited resources and operating history. As shown in the accompanying financial statements, as of June 30, 2013 the Company has an accumulated deficit of approximately $3,194,000 and has negative working capital of approximately $1,966,000. The future of the Company is dependent upon its ability to obtain financing and upon future profitable operations from the development of its new business opportunities.
 
Management has plans to seek additional capital through private placements and public offerings of its common stock. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in accomplishing its objectives. Without such additional capital, the Company may be required to cease operations.
 
These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets, or the amounts of and classification of liabilities that might be necessary in the event the Company cannot continue in existence.
 
2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, such as property, equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to estimated future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent of other groups of assets. The impairment of long-lived assets requires judgments and estimates. If circumstances change, such estimates could also change.

Concentrations of Sales to Certain Customers – During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had sales to two customers that accounted for approximately 39% of total revenue.
 
Income Taxes – Income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 is zero as a full valuation allowance on the tax benefits arising from the net operating losses was provided.
 
The Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company’ policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and does not anticipate having any unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months. The Company is subject to audit by the IRS for tax periods commencing January 1, 2009.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Results of operations for three months ended June 30, 2013 compared to three months ended June 30, 2012.

Revenues and Cost of Revenues

During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 the Company generated revenues from 3 primary business segments:

· 
Revenues earned from usage of the Pulse Network Platform for management and support of client events or conferences.

·
Revenues paid by sponsors and attendees for conferences hosted by the Company.

· 
Revenues earned by providing ongoing development and support for client content and digital marketing programs.
 
Total revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased by 10.7% to $934,222 from $1,045,694 in the three months ended June 30, 2012.

The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is mainly attributable to the discontinuation of one client and their events and the company rescheduling one of its hosted events to the following period.

The company did show a 33.5% growth with the digital marketing programs.

Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased by 58.3% to $228,982 from $549,483 in the three months ended June 30, 2012.  The decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2013 is mainly attributable to the reduced cost in running our own hosted conferences.

Selling and Marketing

Selling and marketing expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 decreased by 10.2% to $121,186 from $134,941 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The decrease in selling and marketing expenses is attributable to a decrease in meals & entertainment provided.

General and Administrative

General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2013 increased by 18.5% to $698,101 from $589,235 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase in general and administrative expenses is mainly attributable to an increase in legal & accounting fees, advertising expenses, IT payroll, and employee benefits.

The net loss decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and June 30, 2012 was mainly attributable to running a more cost efficient hosted event.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based on our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”).  The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.  On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed 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.  We have identified the policies below as critical to our business operations and to the understanding of our financial results:
 
Basis of Presentation - Unaudited Interim Financial Information - The Company prepares its unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and related notes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulations S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  The unaudited interim financial statements furnished reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.  Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.  These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended March 31, 2013 and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on July 1, 2013.

Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets Long-lived assets, such as property, equipment, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group to estimated future undiscounted net cash flows of the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives. If the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its estimated future undiscounted cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. Impairment of long-lived assets is assessed at the lowest levels for which there are identifiable cash flows that are independent of other groups of assets. The impairment of long-lived assets requires judgments and estimates. If circumstances change, such estimates could also change.

Concentrations of Sales to Certain Customers – During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company had sales to two customers that accounted for approximately 39% of total revenue.

Income Taxes – Income tax for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 is zero as a full valuation allowance on the tax benefits arising from the net operating losses was provided.
 
The Company recognizes in its financial statements the impact of a tax position if that position is more likely than not of being sustained on audit, based on the technical merits of the position. The Company’ policy is to recognize interest and penalties accrued on any unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. The Company did not have any unrecognized tax benefits or accrued interest and penalties during the three months ended June 30, 2013 and does not anticipate having any unrecognized tax benefits over the next twelve months. The Company is subject to audit by the IRS for tax periods commencing January 1, 2009.

Other Recently Issued, but Not Yet Effective Accounting Pronouncements - Management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if adopted, would have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
