INTERNET AMERICA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. | Basis of Presentation |
Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Article 8 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to achieve a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position and results of operations of Internet America, Inc. (the "Company" or "Internet America" or "we") for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. These condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2013.
2. | Principles of Consolidation |
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary, TeleShare Communication Services, Inc. ("TeleShare"). All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
3. | Basic and Diluted Net Income Per Share |
For the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, common stock equivalent shares totaling 2,718,428 have been added to the weighted average common shares outstanding, assuming the shares of preferred stock were converted into shares of common stock as of the first day of each respective period, for the purpose of computing diluted earnings per share ("EPS"). For the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, additional common stock equivalent shares totaling 409,168 and 380,471, respectively, were included in the calculation of diluted EPS. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, additional common stock equivalent shares totaling 248,140 and 215,610, respectively, were included in the calculation of diluted EPS. These additional shares are attributable to outstanding in-the-money stock options and warrants. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, options to purchase 471,526 shares of the Company's common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, options to purchase 346,526 shares of common stock and warrants to acquire 394,922 shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted EPS. These aforementioned options and warrants were excluded as their effect was anti-dilutive.
4. | Use of Estimates |
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates.
5. | Acquisition of Subscribers |
During fiscal 2013, the Company completed two acquisitions of subscribers and tangible assets to grow the Company's subscriber base. These acquisitions were accounted for using the purchase method. The Company immediately began integrating the acquired assets of each acquisition into the Company’s existing operations and continues to operate these assets within a single business segment. The amortization period of the intangible assets acquired in each acquisition is four years, which is management's best estimate of the average economic life of a subscriber based on historical experience.
On August 1, 2012, the Company completed an acquisition of the subscribers associated with the wireless ISP operations of Pyro-tech Inc. ("AEI Wireless") conducted in and around Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas for a total purchase price consideration of $63,006, consisting of (i) $26,000 in cash payments made at closing and (ii) $37,006 in a note payable, net of a debt discount.

On February 1, 2013, the Company completed an acquisition of the subscribers associated with the wireless ISP operations of PC Doctors d/b/a: Internet Doctors ("Internet Doctors") conducted in and around Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas for a total purchase price consideration of $95,695, consisting of (i) $50,000 in cash payments made at closing and (ii) $45,695 in a note payable, net of a debt discount.
On November 1, 2013, the Company completed an acquisition of the subscribers associated with the wireless ISP operations of UpperSpace Corporation ("UpperSpace") conducted in and around northeast Oklahoma for an estimated total purchase consideration of $580,300, payable as follows: (i) a $193,433 cash payment, inclusive of $61,325 retained by the seller representing deferred revenues, made at closing, (ii) an estimated $193,434 cash payment to be made on the twelve month anniversary of the closing (which estimated payment is included in accrued liabilities) and (iii) a $193,433 cash payment to be made on the thirty-six month anniversary of the closing (which payment is included in other liabilities). The total estimated purchase consideration of $580,300 is allocated as follows: $530,487 to subscriber acquisition costs, $42,132 to fixed assets and $7,681 to other intangible assets. The final purchase price will be determined twelve months from the closing date.
6. | Goodwill and Subscriber Acquisition Costs |
Pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance on goodwill and other intangibles, the Company performs a qualitative analysis of goodwill annually during the fourth quarter of its fiscal year or more frequently when events and circumstances indicate goodwill might be permanently impaired. If that evaluation indicates an impairment has occurred, the following two-step process is applied. First, the fair value of the reporting unit is compared to the carrying amount. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the implied value of the reporting unit's goodwill is compared with its carrying amount. An impairment loss is then recognized in an amount equal to the excess of the implied value over the carrying value, if any. The Company concluded that no impairment of goodwill occurred during the three months ended December 31, 2013.
The Company amortizes customer acquisition costs over the estimated life of the acquired customers. The weighted average amortization period for subscriber acquisition costs was 48 months for both dial-up and wireless broadband Internet customers during the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012. As of December 31, 2013, unrecognized amortization expense for the remainder of fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 is expected to be $152,000 and unrecognized amortization expense for fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 is expected to be $283,000, $216,000, $148,000 and $44,000, respectively.
7. | Income Taxes |
During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company generated income before income tax expense of $295,259 and $581,649, respectively, and recognized Texas franchise tax expense of $12,600 and $25,200, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 was 4.3% and 4.4%, respectively. During the three and six months ended December 31, 2012, the Company generated income before income tax expense of $281,006 and $528,642, respectively, and recognized Texas franchise tax expense of $12,000 and $24,000, respectively. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended December 31, 2012 was 4.3% and 4.6%, respectively. No provision for federal income taxes was recorded for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 due to the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards.
A reconciliation of the federal statutory income tax rate to the Company's effective tax rate, as reported, is as follows for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Three Months Ended | Six Months Ended | |||||||||||||||
December 31, | December 31, | |||||||||||||||
2013 | 2012 | 2013 | 2012 | |||||||||||||
Income taxes at federal statutory rate | 34.0 | % | 34.0 | % | 34.0 | % | 34.0 | % | ||||||||
State income tax, net of federal benefit | 2.8 | % | 2.8 | % | 2.9 | % | 3.0 | % | ||||||||

At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2013, the Company reversed $3,600,000 and $128,000, respectively, of the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets in expectation of generating taxable income in the future. The Company has provided a valuation allowance for the remaining $10,761,000 of net deferred tax assets at December 31, 2013. In assessing the realizable value of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which these temporary differences become deductible. Future adjustments to the valuation allowance associated with a change in management's determination of the Company's ability to realize these deferred tax assets will result in a change to income tax expense (benefit) in future periods when those determinations are made. Management will continue to assess the realizability of the deferred tax assets at each interim and annual balance sheet date based on actual and forecasted operating results.
At December 31, 2013, the Company had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $37 million for federal income tax purposes. These net operating loss carryforwards may be carried forward in varying amounts and expire beginning in fiscal year 2019 continuing through fiscal year 2034 and may be limited in their use due to significant changes in the Company's ownership.
The preparation of various tax returns requires the use of estimates for federal and state income tax purposes. Those estimates may be subject to review by respective taxing authorities. A revision, if any, to an estimate may result in assessment of additional taxes, penalties and interest. Tax years 2009 through 2012 remain subject to examination by various federal and state tax jurisdictions. The Company performed an assessment of its various income tax positions for all periods subject to examination and concluded that no accrual of uncertain tax positions was necessary as of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013. The Company will account for interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions in the current period consolidated statement of operations, as necessary.
8. | Accrued Liabilities |
As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, accrued liabilities consisted of:

Total Accrued Liabilities | $ | 598,080 | $ | 429,275 |
9. | Acquisition Credit Facility and Long-Term Debt |
On October 28, 2013, the Company entered into a Loan Agreement and other related loan agreement and documents with Frost Bank (the "Bank") creating a non-revolving acquisition credit facility (the “Acquisition Facility”) designed to provide the Company with an additional source of funding for the potential acquisition of subscribers from internet companies (each, an "Acquisition").
The amount that may be borrowed under the Acquisition Facility is $2,000,000 (the “Loan Cap”). For each specific Acquisition, the maximum amount that can be borrowed under the Acquisition Facility, subject to the Loan Cap, is (i) 55% of the cost of such Acquisition in the case of an Acquisition that is partially paid for using seller financing that has a maturity of less than three years and (ii) 65% of the cost of such Acquisition in the case of an Acquisition that is partially paid for using seller financing that has a maturity of three years or more. The Acquisition Facility is currently set to terminate on April 25, 2015. Through the date of this report, there has been no borrowing under the Acquisition Facility.
Each advance made by the Bank under the Acquisition Facility will be evidenced by the Company’s execution and delivery to the Bank of a separate promissory note (an “Acquisition Note”) that will provide for a maturity of not more than three years and equal monthly principal reduction payments, plus interest, to be made over the term of the Acquisition Note. Each Acquisition Note will bear interest at a fixed rate equal to the then current index rate for one and one-half (1/2) year to two (2) year loans established by the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, plus 4%.
8 |
There are two financial covenants under the Acquisition Facility. The first covenant requires the Company to maintain an end of quarter debt (excluding subordinated debt) to tangible net worth ratio of less than or equal to 2.5 to 1.0. The second covenant requires the Company to maintain a cash flow to debt service ratio of greater than or equal to 2.0 to 1.0, to be calculated on a rolling four-quarter basis. Both covenants are to be tested as of the end of each fiscal quarter.
Indebtedness will be secured by a perfected, continuing security interest in favor of Frost Bank in all of the Company’s assets. Advances will be conditioned on, among other things, all representations and warranties contained in the loan documents being true and correct as of the date of the advance request and there being no default under the Acquisition Facility at the time of, or as a result of, the advance request. With each advance, the Company will be charged a loan processing fee equal to the greater of $250 and one-tenth of one percent (0.10%) of the amount of the advance.
As of December 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, long term debt consisted of:
December 31, | June 30, | |||||||
2013 | 2013 | |||||||

These statements reflect the current views of management with respect to future events and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance or achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from those described in the forward-looking statements. We do not intend to update the forward-looking information to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting such forward-looking information. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013 and other publicly filed reports discuss some additional important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in any forward-looking statements. Some of these factors are also discussed under the heading “Safe Harbor Statement and Risk Factors” later in this Item 2.
Overview
The quarter ended December 31, 2013 continued to show positive results in operations and cash flow. During the quarter, we closed the acquisition of UpperSpace, a Wireless Internet Service Provider (WISP) located in northeast Oklahoma. In line with our acquisition strategy we are talking to more WISP acquisition candidates than at any other time in the past, but, as of this time, none of them have reached a definitive agreement. The UpperSpace acquisition allowed us to have a stronger local presence in the area. We continue to add engineering expertise to support our growth and acquisition integration.
We continue to execute on our strategy to grow not only through acquisitions, but also through internal growth and the implementation of new technologies. In furtherance of this strategy, we continually evaluate accretive opportunities to secure subscribers through strategic acquisitions of Internet service providers in underserved markets where we can introduce our model for delivering wireless broadband internet services. With regard to new technologies, we have entered into an agreement to test LTE in Joplin, Missouri utilizing our 2.5 GHz spectrum.
Our cash position increased by $400,000 from $2.3 million as of June 30, 2013 to $2.7 million as of December 31, 2013. Historically, the second quarter of our fiscal year has been a heavy cash drain period with our legal and accounting fees. Additionally, we made the first of three installments to be paid for the UpperSpace acquisition during the period ended December 31, 2013.
We experienced a 4% and 3% increase in revenue to $2,027,000 and $3,995,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to the comparable prior year periods. Our adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 remained consistent with the comparable prior year periods at $511,000 and $980,000, respectively, representing an EBITDA margin of 25% for each period. Our net income for the three and six months ended December 31, 2013 also remained consistent with the comparable prior year periods at $282,000 and $557,000, respectively, representing a net income margin of 14% for each period.

Statement of Operations
Internet services revenue is derived from wireless access, dial-up internet access, including analog and ISDN access, DSL access, dedicated connectivity, bulk dial-up access, web hosting services, and value-added services, such as multiple e-mail boxes, personalized e-mail addresses and Fax-2-Email services.
Connectivity and operations expenses consist primarily of setup costs for new subscribers, telecommunication costs, merchant processing fees, and wages of network operations and customer support personnel. Connectivity costs include fees paid to telephone companies for subscribers' dial-up connections to our network, fees paid to backbone providers for connections from our network to the internet and equipment and tower lease costs for our new wireless networks.
Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of creative and production costs, costs of media placement, management salaries and call center wages. Advertising costs are expensed as incurred.
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of administrative salaries, professional services, rent, bad debt expense and other general office and business expenses.
Depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line or double declining method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as appropriate. Data communications equipment, computers, data servers and office equipment are depreciated over five years. Furniture, fixtures and leasehold improvements are depreciated over five years or the lease term. Buildings are depreciated over fifteen years. Amortization expense consists of the amortization of subscriber acquisition costs, which are amortized over four years.
Our business is not subject to any significant seasonal influences.

Total revenue. Total revenue increased by $74,000, or 3.8%, to $2,027,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $1,953,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Wireless broadband Internet revenue increased by $156,000 to $1,673,000 during the current year period compared to $1,517,000 for the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to the stability of the subscriber base and customers migrating to upgraded service levels during the quarter ended December 31, 2013, as well as the full period results of successful acquisitions of wireless subscribers completed in the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. The increase in revenues derived from wireless broadband Internet subscribers was partially offset by a decrease in other types of Internet service revenues of $82,000 during the current year period compared to the prior year period, which is primarily attributed to the expected decline of dial-up customers.
Connectivity and operations. Connectivity and operations expense increased by $76,000, or 8.2%, to $1,006,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $930,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Materials and supplies expense increased by $45,000 to $69,000 for the current year period compared to $24,000 for the prior year period primarily due to a onetime vendor concession granted in connection with a manufacturer's recall during the prior year period. Data and telecommunications expense increased by $9,000 to $237,000 for the current year period compared to $228,000 for the prior year period due to infrastructure expansion and growth. A total increase of $22,000 in tower lease costs, salaries, wages, related personnel expense and merchant fees to $700,000 was recorded for the current year period compared to $678,000 for the prior year period. These increases are all a result of the Company's growth and network expansion from successful acquisitions of wireless subscribers completed in the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense decreased by $26,000, or 23.2%, to $86,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $112,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Salaries, wages and related personnel costs decreased by approximately $11,000 to $60,000 for the current year period compared to $71,000 for the prior year period due to changes in personnel. Advertising expense decreased by $8,000 to $10,000 for the current year period compared to $18,000 for the prior year period primarily due to employing more cost effective forms of advertising. Outside sales expense also decreased by $8,000 to $9,000 for the current year period compared to $17,000 for the prior year period due to increased sales efforts through in house personnel.
The above mentioned decreases were partially offset by a slight increase of $1,000 in facilities expense to $7,000 for the current year period compared to $6,000 in the prior year period due to changes in cost of utility expense.
General and administrative. General and administrative expense increased by $18,000, or 4.3%, to $441,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $423,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Professional fees increased by $27,000 to $72,000 for the current year period compared to $45,000 for the prior year period due to the addition of a new Chief Financial Officer in July 2013 who is engaged as a non-employee consultant to the Company. Personnel costs increased by $19,000 to $177,000 for the current year period compared to $158,000 for the prior year period due to changes in compensation. Stock based compensation expense and directors’ fees increased by $8,000 to $27,000 for the current year period compared to $19,000 for the prior year period primarily due to additional vesting of stock options in the current year period and the addition of one director during the third quarter of fiscal year 2013.
The above mentioned increases were partially offset by the total decrease of $36,000 in travel, telecom, insurance, facilities and other general and administrative costs to $165,000 compared to $201,000 in the prior year period primarily due to recruiting fees paid in the prior year period for the addition of a senior network engineer and product development specialist.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $6,000, or 3.0%, to $197,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013, from $203,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. This decrease is due to a $35,000 decrease in depreciation expense caused by assets becoming fully depreciated and fewer additions, partially offset by an increase of $29,000 in amortization expense relating to acquired subscriber costs resulting from the Company’s wireless acquisitions completed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
Interest income and expense. Interest expense decreased by $2,000, or 40.0%, to $3,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2013 from $5,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012, primarily resulting from the reduction of the Company's debt balances outstanding. Interest income remained constant at $1,000 for each of the current and prior year periods.
14 |
Income tax expense. Income tax expense increased by $1,000, or 8.3%, for the three months ended December 31, 2013 to $13,000 as compared to $12,000 for the prior year period primarily related to higher Texas franchise tax expense accrued for increased revenues in the current year period.

Total revenue. Total revenue increased by $130,000, or 3.4%, to $3,995,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013, from $3,865,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. Wireless broadband Internet revenue increased by $247,000 to $3,255,000 for the current year period compared to $3,008,000 for the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to the stability of the subscriber base and customers migrating to upgraded service levels during the six months ended December 31, 2013, as well as the full period results of successful acquisitions of wireless subscribers completed in the twelve months ended December 31, 2013. Increased revenues derived from wireless broadband Internet subscribers were partially offset by decreases in other types of Internet service revenues of $117,000 during the current year period compared to the prior year period, which is primarily attributed to the expected decline of dial-up customers moving to other providers’ broadband service.
Connectivity and operations. Connectivity and operations expense increased by $63,000, or 3.3%, to $1,985,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013, from $1,922,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. Data and telecommunications expense increased by $10,000 to $486,000 for the current year period compared to $476,000 for the prior year period due to infrastructure expansion and growth. A total increase of $53,000 in tower leases costs, salaries, wages, related personnel expense, merchant fees and materials and supplies to $1,499,000 for the current year period compared to $1,446,000 for the prior year period. These increases are all a result of the Company's growth and network expansion from successful acquisitions of wireless subscribers completed in the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense decreased by $31,000, or 14.2%, to $187,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $218,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. Outside sales expense also decreased by $19,000 to $25,000 for the current year period compared to $44,000 for the prior year period due to increased sales efforts through in house personnel. Salaries, wages and related personnel costs decreased by approximately $14,000 to $122,000 for the current year period compared to $136,000 for the prior year period due to changes in personnel. Advertising expense decreased by $2,000 to $24,000 for the current year period compared to $26,000 for the prior year period primarily due to more cost effective forms of advertising.
The above mentioned decreases were partially offset by an increase of $4,000 in facilities expense to $16,000 for the current year period compared to $12,000 in the prior year period related to general increases in utility expenses.
General and administrative. General and administrative expense increased by $86,000, or 11.1%, to $862,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013, from $776,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Professional fees increased by $44,000 to $135,000 for the current year period compared to $91,000 for the prior year period due to the addition of a new Chief Financial Officer in July 2013 who is engaged as a non-employee consultant to the Company. Personnel costs increased by $27,000 to $347,000 for the current year period compared to $320,000 for the prior year period due to changes in compensation. Stock based compensation expense and directors’ fees increased by $15,000 to $40,000 for the current year period compared to $25,000 for the prior year period primarily due to options issued during the current year period and the addition of a board member.
Travel, insurance, facilities and other general and administrative costs remained constant at $340,000 for the current and prior year periods.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization decreased by $36,000, or 8.7%, to $376,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 compared to $412,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. This decrease is due to a $72,000 decrease in depreciation expense relating to assets becoming fully depreciated, partially offset by a $36,000 increase in amortization expense relating to acquired subscriber costs resulting from the Company’s acquisitions completed in the twelve months ended December 31, 2013.
Interest income and expense. For the six months ended December 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company recorded interest expense of $7,000 and $10,000, respectively. The decrease in interest expense of $3,000, or 30.0%, primarily results from the reduction in the Company's debt balances outstanding. Interest income increased by $2,000 to $4,000 for the current year period compared to $2,000 for the prior year period due to increased cash on hand.
17 |
Income tax expense. Income tax expense increased by $1,000, or 4.2%, for the six months ended December 31, 2013 to $25,000 as compared to $24,000 for the prior year period primarily related to higher Texas franchise tax expense accrued for increased revenues in the current year period.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have historically financed our operations primarily through cash flow from operations. During the six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized net income and net cash provided by operating activities of approximately $556,000 and $925,000, respectively, enabling the Company to fund its operations from current period cash flow and resulting in cash on hand of approximately $2,690,000 as of December 31, 2013. The Company expects to continue to fund its operations during fiscal 2014 with cash flow from operations. The Company will continue to focus on sales and expense management during fiscal 2014 and expects future cash flow from operations to remain strong.
The Company plans to pursue strategic acquisitions in the near and medium term in addition to upgrading its systems to provide higher speeds and increased reliability for its customers. We expect that our capital expenditures and any future acquisitions will be funded from available cash, public or private sales of debt or equity securities, or borrowing from commercial banks and/or third parties; however there is no assurance that such financing will be able to be obtained when needed at desirable rates which could affect our success in achieving any or all of our initiatives. Any unexpected decreases in revenue or subscriber count may adversely affect our liquidity and plans for future growth.
Cash provided by operating activities is net income adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities. For the six months ended December 31, 2013, cash provided by operations was $925,000 as compared to $1,010,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2012. For the six months ended December 31, 2013, net income plus non-cash items contributed cash of $957,000 as compared to $924,000 contributed during the prior year period. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used cash of $32,000 and provided cash of $87,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Cash used in investing activities totaled $416,000 and $315,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due primarily to improvements in existing wireless broadband internet infrastructure and an acquisition of subscribers.
Cash used in financing activities totaled $114,000 and $125,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, and consisted of principal payments on long term debt, including notes related to acquisitions.
Cash on hand increased by $395,000 during the six months ended December 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2013, cash on hand was $2,690,000 as compared to $2,295,000 as of June 30, 2013. We believe our continuing efforts to improve the quality and efficiency of our operations, along with our focus on increasing revenues, may lead to a more rapid rate of growth and improving cash flow from operations.

“Safe Harbor” Statement and Risk Factors
The following "Safe Harbor" Statement is made pursuant to the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Certain of the statements contained in the body of this Quarterly Report are forward-looking statements (rather than historical facts) that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. With respect to such forward-looking statements, we seek the protections afforded by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These risks include, without limitation, that (1) we will not be able to increase our rural customer base at the expected rate, (2) we will not improve EBITDA, profitability or product margins, (3) Internet revenue in high-speed broadband will continue to increase at a slower pace than the decrease in revenue from other Internet services resulting in greater operating losses in future periods, (4) financing will not be available to us if and as needed, (5) we will not be competitive with existing or new competitors, (6) we will not keep up with industry pricing or technological developments impacting the Internet, (7) we will be adversely affected by dependence on network infrastructure, telecommunications providers and other vendors or by regulatory changes, (8) service interruptions or impediments could harm our business, (9) acts of God and other events outside our control, such as hurricanes and other dangerous weather conditions, fires and lightning, could damage or destroy our facilities and network infrastructure, (10) we may be accused of infringing upon the intellectual property rights of third parties, which will be costly to defend and could limit our ability to use certain technologies in the future, (11) government regulations could force us to change our business practices, (12) we may be unable to hire and retain qualified personnel, including our key officers, (13) future acquisitions of wireless broadband Internet customers and infrastructure may not be available on attractive terms and, if available, we may not successfully integrate those acquisitions into our operations, (14) provisions in our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and shareholder rights plan could limit our share price and delay a change of management and (15) our stock price has historically been thinly traded and volatile and may continue to be thinly traded and volatile. This list is intended to identify certain of the principal factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements included elsewhere herein but is not a comprehensive list of all of such factors.
