NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

 

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Sitestar Corporation (the “Company” or “Sitestar”), pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The information furnished herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments), which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present the operating results for the respective periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally present in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2012 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.  The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2013.

 

NOTE 2 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

 

GAAP requires dual presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statements of income and requires a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation. Basic earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Diluted income per share is computed using weighted average shares outstanding adjusted to reflect the dilutive effect of all potential common shares that were outstanding during the period.

NOTE 7 -- PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES, Continued

 

Deferred tax assets and liabilities reflect the net effect of temporary differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and amounts used for income tax purposes.  Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities at September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 are as follows:

 

		2013				2012
Accounts receivable		$	1,314			$	1,614
Amortization of Intangible assets			2,515,289				2,630,332
Less valuation allowance			(2,422,247	)			(2,422,247	)
Deferred tax asset		$	94,356			$	209,699

 

At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company has provided a valuation allowance for a portion of the deferred tax asset that management has not been able to determine that realization is more likely than not. The Company is subject to Federal income taxes as well as income taxes of state jurisdictions. For Federal and state tax purposes, tax years 2009 through 2012 remain open to examination.

 

NOTE 8 – INTANGIBLE ASSETS

 

The Company continually monitors its intangible assets to determine whether any impairment has occurred.  In making such determination with respect to these assets, the Company evaluates the performance, on a discounted cash flow basis, of the intangible assets or group of assets.  Should impairment be identified, a loss would be reported to the extent that the carrying value of the related intangible asset exceeds its fair value using the discounted cash flow method.  The Company's customer lists are being amortized over three years. Total amortization expense was $5,900 and $21,907 for the nine months ended September, 30, 2013 and 2012.

 

NOTE 9 – DEFERRED REVENUE

 

Deferred revenue represents collections from customers in advance for services not yet performed and are recognized as revenue in the period service is provided.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

Internet

 

The Company sells Internet services under annual and monthly contracts.  Under the annual contracts, the subscriber pays a one-time annual fee, which is recognized as revenue ratably over the life of the contract. Under the monthly contracts, the subscriber is billed monthly and revenue

is recognized for the period to which the service relates. Sales of computer hardware are recognized as revenue upon delivery and acceptance of the product by the customer. Sales are adjusted for any returns or allowances.

 

Real Estate

 

Revenue from real estate is recognized upon closing of the sale, as all conditions for full revenue recognition have been met at that time. All costs associated with the property sold are removed from the consolidated balance sheets and charged to cost of revenue at that time.

 

NOTE 10 - NOTES PAYABLE

Real Estate

 

The real estate group invests in, refurbishes and markets real estate for resale. The increase in real estate sales marks the beginning of the Company’s efforts to turn investments of excess cash from the Internet division into a new revenue stream. With the increased inventory of real estate investments, the sales should become a more prominent source of revenue.

EBITDA (Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization) consists of revenue less cost of revenue and operating expense.  EBITDA is provided because it is a measure commonly used by investors to analyze and compare companies on the basis of operating performance. EBITDA is presented to enhance an understanding of the Company’s operating results and is not intended to represent cash flows or results of operations in accordance with GAAP for the periods indicated. EBITDA is not a measurement under GAAP and is not necessarily comparable with similarly titled measures for other companies. See the Liquidity and Capital Resource section for further discussion of cash generated from operations.

 

The following tables show a reconciliation of EBITDA to the GAAP presentation of net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012.

Pursuant to the approval of the board of directors, the Company’s management believes that it is in the best interests of the Corporation to implement a program to purchase (“Purchase Program”), as investments, real estate with the Company’s surplus cash flows. Any real estate purchased pursuant to the Purchase Program will be held as investment until such time or times as the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may deem advisable to sell or otherwise dispose of the property.

 

The current real estate market presents the unique opportunity to acquire properties at deep discounts from fair market value with the potential for substantial profits. Management evaluates property as it becomes available with respect to the market value versus the acquisition cost, in addition to other conditions that could affect the resale value. Renovations are made as needed to maximize the market appeal and value prior to listing for sale.

 

Management believes that there is sustainable cash flow potential for the near future in real estate and is actively pursuing the program. As of the balance sheet date, September 30, 2013, the Company has invested approximately $3,268,675 in surplus funds and is continuing the investing process.

NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2013 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 2012 

 

REVENUE

 

Total revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 decreased by $988,553 or 34.6% from $2,858,885 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $1,870,332 for the same period in 2013. Internet sales decreased $410,985 or 18.3% from $2,241,611 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $1,830,626 for the same period in 2013. Real estate sales decreased $577,568 or 93.6% from $617,274 for the nine months ended June 30, 2012 to $39,706 for the same period in 2013.

 

The decrease in Internet sales is attributed to the lack of acquisitions of Internet access and web hosting customers of ISPs. Although the Company continues to sign up new customers, competition from ubiquitous nationwide telecommunications and cable providers threatens significant and sustainable organic growth. The new real estate division while sales are down is preparing properties for the market and is still providing a profitable revenue stream.

 

COST OF REVENUE

 

Total costs of revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 decreased by $749,632 or 44.7% from $1,676,383 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $926,751 for the same period in 2013.  Cost of Internet revenue decreased $284,501 or 23.5% from $1,208,176 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $923,675 for the same period in 2013 as a result of declining revenue. Cost of real estate revenue decreased $465,131 or 99.3% from $468,207 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $3,076 for the same period in 2013. Cost of real estate revenue is a direct result of lower sales.

 

OPERATING EXPENSES

Operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 increased $44,114 or 7.4% from $593,173 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $637,287 for the same period in 2013. This increase is primarily due to bad debt expense. Bad debt expense increased $46,814 from $1,993 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to $48,807 for the same period in 2013.

INCOME TAXES

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 corporate income tax expenses of $116,640 and $220,745 were accrued.

Accounts payable decreased by $30,207 or 91.9% from $32,879 on December 31, 2012 to $2,672 on September 30, 2013. Deferred revenue decreased by $57,935 or 15.0% from $387,258 on December 31, 2012 to $329,323 on September 30, 2013 representing decreased volume of customer accounts that have been prepaid.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $120,852 and $148,590 at September 30, 2013 and at December 31, 2012. EBITDA was $316,044 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 as compared to $616,252 for the same period in 2012.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICY AND ESTIMATES

 

The Company’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations section discusses its condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates and judgments, including those related to revenue recognition, accrued expenses, financing operations, and contingencies and litigation.

 

Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions. The most significant accounting estimates inherent in the preparation of the Company’s financial statements include estimates as to the appropriate carrying value of certain assets and liabilities which are not readily apparent from other sources. These accounting policies are described at relevant sections in this discussion and analysis and in the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this quarterly report.

 

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

 

None.

 

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures:

 

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of September 30, 2013. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately and on a timely basis.

 

SITESTAR CORPORATION

 

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures, continued

 

Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2013, because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting discussed in the fiscal 2012 Form 10-K.  The material weaknesses related to an overall lack of segregation of duties and the improper recording of revenues, deferred revenues, and income tax accounts.

 

As of April 15, 2013, the Company began evaluating the aforementioned weaknesses and is remediating the deficiencies with additional procedures and controls including additional personnel training.  Pursuant to the material weakness related to recognition of deferred revenues, we have made changes to our revenue accounting policies and are now properly recording deferred revenue adjustments through our revenue account as they are earned. Pursuant to the material weakness related to calculation of income tax related accounts, we have reviewed all inputs and calculations to ensure accuracy. Due to limited staffing, we are currently unable to remediate the material weakness related to segregation of duties.

 

Because of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described in the fiscal 2012 Form 10-K, we performed additional analyses and other post-closing procedures to ensure that our condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, believes the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting:

 

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2013 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting, except for the changes in our internal controls discussed above in order to remediate material weaknesses.
