INTRODUCTORY NOTES


This Report on Form 10-Q for Sibling Group Holdings, Inc. (“SIBE” or the “Company”) may contain forward-looking statements. You can identify these statements by forward-looking words such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate” and “continue” or similar words. Forward-looking statements include information concerning possible or assumed future business success or financial results. You should read statements that contain these words carefully because they discuss future expectations and plans, which contain projections of future results of operations or financial condition or state other forward-looking information. We believe that it is important to communicate future expectations to investors. However, there may be events in the future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. Accordingly, we do not undertake any obligation to update any forward-looking statements for any reason, even if new information becomes available or other events occur in the future.


The forward-looking statements included herein are based on current expectations that involve a number of risks and uncertainties set forth under “Risk Factors” in our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and year ended December 31, 2013 and other periodic reports filed with the SEC. Accordingly, to the extent that this Report contains forward-looking statements regarding the financial condition, operating results, business prospects or any other aspect of the Company, please be advised that SIBE’s actual financial condition, operating results and business performance may differ materially from that projected or estimated in such forward-looking statements.

SIBLING GROUP HOLDINGS, INC.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND JUNE 30, 2014

(Unaudited)


Note 1 - Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

 

Organization

 

Sibling Group Holdings, Inc., referenced as the "SIBE," "Company," "we," "our," and "us" was incorporated under the laws of the State of Texas on December 28, 1988, as "Houston Produce Corporation". On June 24, 1997, the Company changed its name to "Net Masters Consultants, Inc." On November 27, 2002, the Company changed its name to "Sona Development Corporation" in an effort to restructure the business image to attract prospective business opportunities. Our name changed on May 14, 2007 to "Sibling Entertainment Group Holdings, Inc." and on August 15, 2012 the Company name was changed to "Sibling Group Holdings, Inc."


On March 30, 2013, SIBE, through its wholly owned subsidiary, BLSCH Acquisition, LLC signed a Closing Terms Addendum (the "Closing Addendum) to the previously disclosed Asset Purchase Agreement between BLSCH Acquisition, LLC and BLENDEDSCHOOLS.NET, an unrelated third party ("Blended Schools") dated November 25, 2013. Under the terms of the Closing Addendum, we closed on the purchase of assets of Blended Schools effective as of May 30, 2014. Blended Schools provides online curriculum with 192 master courses for the K-12 marketplace, all Common Core compatible; a complete hosted course authoring and learning management system (LMS) environment featuring both Blackboard and Canvas; the new Language Institute, with online courses in Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, French, Japanese, Latin, Russian, German and Hindi, all oriented to meet today's ESL requirements. The Blendedschools.net staff provides online, and on-site training for Blended Learning training methods, conversion planning, and implementation.


Under the terms of the Closing Addendum, we agreed to pay the $550,000 purchase price for the assets by assuming $446,187 of Blended Schools' debt, by payment of $53,813 in cash on June 10, 2014, and agreeing to pay an additional $50,000 payment in cash on November 14, 2014 to Blended Schools. In addition, we agreed to pay certain other debts of Blended Schools as provided for in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

 

The Company focuses on providing services and technology aimed at increasing the performance in educational settings and operates through two (2) divisions, its Educational Management Organization (EMO) and its Technology and Services Group (TSG). The EMO intends to provide school management services, primarily within the charter school arena. The TSG division is focused on the development and deployment of software, systems and procedures to enhance the rate of learning in both primary and secondary education. It is based in Austin, Texas.


Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


(a)  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company changed its fiscal financial reporting year end from December 31 to be June 30, which represents the operating year ends of its current business.

 

(b)  Going Concern

 

The financial statements have been prepared on the basis of a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has limited revenues, has a working capital deficit of $2,768,955 and incurred a loss of $2,576,237 for the recent six months ended December 31, 2014. These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on raising additional capital and ultimately on generating future profitable operations. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to raise the necessary funds when needed to finance its ongoing costs. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relative to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND JUNE 30, 2014

(Unaudited)

 


(c)  Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets and liabilities, derivative liabilities, debt discounts, and 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 those estimates.


(d)  Allowance for Doubtful Accounts


Accounts receivables are recorded at their estimated collectible amounts. Management evaluates the collectability of its receivables periodically, largely based on the historical trends with the customer as well as current financial information available. If it is deemed appropriate an allowance is recorded as an expense in the current period. As of December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014 there is no allowance for doubtful accounts recorded.


(e)  Intangibles


Assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount 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 to future undiscounted net cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets.


(f)  Revenue Recognition


The Company typically will receive in full or a large prepayment on account for the use of its courses for the successive K-12 school year commencing on July 1. Revenues are amortized ratably over the contract term with the customer, typically over twelve months. Deferred revenues represents customer prepayments on account for the subscribed software and course content.

 

(g)  Income Taxes

 

The Company utilizes Financial Accounting Standards Board Codification ('ASC"), ASC 740, "Accounting for Income Taxes", which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the estimated tax consequences in future years of differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities, and their financial reporting amounts at each period end based on enacted tax laws and statutory tax rates applicable to the period in which the differences are expected to affect taxable income.


(h)  Financial Instruments


In accordance with the requirements of ASC 820, "Financial Instruments, Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," the Company has determined the estimated fair value of financial instruments using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. The carrying values of cash, accounts payable, and amounts due to related parties approximate fair values due to the short-term maturity of the instruments.


Certain assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis are measured in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05, Fair Value Measurements. FASB ASC Topic 820-10-05 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands the disclosure requirements regarding fair value measurements for financial assets and liabilities as well as for non-financial assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

DECEMBER 31, 2014 AND JUNE 30, 2014

(Unaudited)

 


The statement requires fair value measurement be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:


Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;


Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and


Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

 

We measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at December 31, 2014:

The convertible notes issued and described in Note 7 do not have fixed settlement provisions because their conversion prices are not fixed. The conversion features have been characterized as derivative liabilities to be re-measured at the end of every reporting period with the change in value reported in the statement of operations.

 

For purpose of determining the fair market value of the derivative liability for the embedded conversion, the Company used Black Scholes option valuation model. The significant assumptions used in the Black Scholes valuation of the derivative are as follows:

 

Risk free interest rate

 

 

0.5%

 

Stock volatility factor

 

 

93%

 

Weighted average expected option life

 

 

5 to 6 months

 

Expected dividend yield

 

 

None

(i)  Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation". Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the award's fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option-pricing model and/or market price of conversion shares, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various highly judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected option life. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model change significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical experience. Further, if the extent of the Company's actual forfeiture rate is different from the estimate, then the stock-based compensation expense is adjusted accordingly.


The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 "Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received, or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by ASC 505-50.

 

(j)  Loss per Share

 

The Company computes loss per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings Per Share", which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share on the face of the statement of operations. This guidance requires companies that have multiple classes of equity securities to use the "two-class" of "if converted method" in computing earnings per share. We compute loss per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for common stock and any participating securities according to dividends declared (whether paid or unpaid) and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common shareholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. The Company has excluded all common equivalent shares outstanding for warrants to purchase common stock from the calculation of diluted net loss per share because all such securities are antidilutive for the periods presented. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013 there are no common stock equivalents outstanding to exclude.

 

(k)  Recent Accounting Pronouncements


In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update "ASU" 2014-15 on "Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) – Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern". Currently, there is no guidance in U.S. GAAP about management's responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity's ability to continue as a going concern or to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in this Update provide that guidance. In doing so, the amendments are intended to reduce diversity in the timing and content of footnote disclosures. The amendments require management to assess an entity's ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the amendments (1) provide a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) require an evaluation every reporting period including interim periods, (3) provide principles for considering the mitigating effect of management's plans, (4) require certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management's plans, (5) require an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) require an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued).


The amendments in this Update are effective for public and nonpublic entities for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted.

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers". The update gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The proposed ASU, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, the update would supersede some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. The update removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, the update improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. We are currently reviewing the provisions of this ASU to determine if there will be any impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.


In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2014-12, "Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718); Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period". The amendments in this ASU apply to all reporting entities that grant their employees share-based payments in which the terms of the award provide that a performance target that affects vesting could be achieved after the requisite service period. The amendments require that a performance target that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply existing guidance in Topic 718 as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. For all entities, the amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Earlier adoption is permitted. The effective date is the same for both public business entities and all other entities.


Entities may apply the amendments in this ASU either (a) prospectively to all awards granted or modified after the effective date or (b) retrospectively to all awards with performance targets that are outstanding as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements and to all new or modified awards thereafter. If retrospective transition is adopted, the cumulative effect of applying this Update as of the beginning of the earliest annual period presented in the financial statements should be recognized as an adjustment to the opening retained earnings balance at that date. Additionally, if retrospective transition is adopted, an entity may use hindsight in measuring and recognizing the compensation cost. This updated guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.


All other new accounting pronouncements issued but not yet effective or adopted have been deemed to be not relevant to the Company and, accordingly, are not expected to have a material impact once adopted.

They are expected to become the base modules for a full, end-to-end solution for e-learning through the addition of applications that use the classroom membership such as grade books, behavior monitoring, class interaction and course interaction. The total consideration given was the issuance of 319,905 shares of restricted common stock, which has been fair valued at $58,000.

Note 7 – Convertible Notes Payable


Effective on December 5, 2014, Sibling Group Holdings, Inc., completed the closing of a private placement financing transaction with FireRock Capital, Inc. ("FireRock"), an unrelated third party, pursuant to a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, FireRock purchased from the Company an 8% Senior Convertible Promissory Note (the "Note" and together with the Purchase Agreement, the "Transaction Documents") in the aggregate principal amount of $275,000.00, and delivered gross proceeds of $250,000, excluding a 10% original issue discount, transaction costs, fees and expenses. The Note may be converted into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock") by FireRock in whole or in part at any time from time to time after the issuance of the Note, by submitting to the Company a Notice of Conversion. If none of the Principal Amount is paid by June 1, 2015 "the Maturity Date", then an additional $250,000 will be due for the failure to pay the monies due at maturity for a total sum of $525,000.00 (the "Conversion Amount") which shall be paid in the form of conversion into Common Stock plus accrued interest, or if a portion of the Principal Amount and accrued interest is paid in cash by the Maturity Date, the Conversion Amount shall be reduced by the amount that is double the amount paid in cash (not including the amount paid as interest) by the Maturity Date.


An additional 25% of principal is due as a prepayment penalty for monies paid against principal prior to the maturity date. In the event of a default there is an additional 45% of principal is due as a prepayment penalty for monies paid against principal prior to the maturity date. Prepayment of the Note requires notification to FireRock, if such monies are obtained from other financing sources. The interest rate increases to 15% per annum for the failure to make timely payments of principal or interest. There is also a 2% penalty on the converted principal and interest balance into shares for the failure to timely deliver shares issuable upon a conversion within three business days.


FireRock has future participation rights up to 25% of any future offerings at the same terms and conditions being offered to others, as long as the FireRock Note remains outstanding.


The Note is convertible into shares of the Company's common stock at any time at the discretion of FireRock at an initial conversion price per share equal to the lowest of: (a) $0.25 or (b) 70% (or 50% upon a default) multiplied by the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days immediately prior to the applicable conversion date (the "Conversion Price"). The Conversion Price is subject to adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, issuance and or sale of stock, other similar transactions, inclusive of the issuance of stock options or warrants at a price or conversion price less than $.25 per share while this FireRock Note is outstanding and subject to the terms of the Transaction Documents.


As a result of the derivative nature of the conversion terms of this FireRock Note, the Company has recorded a a fair value derivative liability in the amount of $117,398 at inception, which will be marked to market. In addition the Company issued 125,000 shares of common stock in connection with this FireRock Note, which has an allocated value of $18,644.

Liquidity and Capital Resources


Liquidity is the ability of an enterprise to generate adequate amounts of cash to meet its needs for cash requirements. We had a working capital deficit of $2,768,955, $2,104 in cash and $966,025 of intangible assets as of December 31, 2014, compared to a working capital deficit of $1,824,145 and $27,250 in cash as of June 30, 2014.


Net cash used by operating activities was $275,146 for the six months ended December 31, 2014, compared to $4,642 for the six months ended December 31, 2013. The increase of $270,504 of cash used by operating activities for the quarter was primarily a result of payments made on obligations versus reduced cash collections of accounts receivable.

We have had no capital expenditures for the three months ended December 31, 2014, and have no plans for the purchase of any plant or equipment in the foreseeable future.


We do not presently have any firm commitments for additional working capital and there are no assurances that such capital will be available to us when needed or upon terms and conditions which are acceptable to us. If we are unable to secure additional working capital as needed, our ability to develop new business generate sales, meet our operating and financing obligations as they become due, or continue our business and operations could be in jeopardy.


As of December 31, 2014, corporate offices were located at 901 Mopac Expressway, Barton Oaks Plaza One Suite 300, Austin, TX 78746.


As of February 15, 2015, corporate offices are located at 215 Morris Street, Suite 205, Durham, NC 27701.


Critical Accounting Policies


The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure on contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

 

Critical accounting policies are defined as those that are reflective of significant judgments and uncertainties, and may potentially result in materially different results under different assumptions and conditions. Our critical accounting policies are summarized in Note #2 to our consolidated financial statements in Item #15 of our Transition Report on Form 10-K for the six months ended June 30, 2014. As of December 31, 2014, management believes the critical accounting policies applicable to the Company that are reflective of significant judgments and or uncertainties are limited to equity based transactions or convertible debt instruments.


Stock-Based Compensation


The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance ASC 718, "Compensation – Stock Compensation". Under the provisions of ASC 718, stock-based compensation cost is estimated at the grant date based on the award's fair value as calculated by the Black-Scholes-Merton (BSM) option-pricing model and/or market price of conversion shares, and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The BSM model requires various highly judgmental assumptions including volatility and expected option life. If any of the assumptions used in the BSM model change significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. The Company estimates the forfeiture rate based on historical experience. Further, if the extent of the Company's actual forfeiture rate is different from the estimate, then the stock-based compensation expense is adjusted accordingly.


The Company accounts for equity instruments issued in exchange for the receipt of goods or services from other than employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 "Equity Based Payments to Non-Employees. Costs are measured at the estimated fair market value of the consideration received, or the estimated fair value of the equity instruments issued, whichever is more reliably measurable. The value of equity instruments issued for consideration other than employee services is determined on the earliest of a performance commitment or completion of performance by the provider of goods or services as defined by ASC 505-50.


Derivative Financial Instrument


 We do not use derivative instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow, market, or foreign currency risks. Management evaluates all of its financial instruments to determine if such instruments are derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported as charges or credits to income. For option-based simple derivative financial instruments, we use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the derivative instruments at inception and subsequent valuation dates. The classification of derivative instruments, including whether such instruments should be recorded as liabilities or as equity, is re-assessed at the end of each reporting period. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheet as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

Exemption from Registration


The securities issued during the three months ended December 31, 2014 were issued without registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission, pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The securities are offered and sold only to accredited investors as defined in Regulation D. This exemption applies because the Company did not make any public offer to sell any securities, but rather, the Company only offered securities to persons known to the Company to be accredited investors.


ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.


We did not have any market risk sensitive instruments outstanding during this period.


ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES


We strive to maintain a set of disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act, is recorded processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.


Under the supervision of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission published in 1992 and subsequent guidance prepared by the Commission specifically for smaller public companies. Based on that evaluation, our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting were not effective as of December 31, 2014. We have identified the following material weaknesses as of December 31, 2014: (i) lack of sufficient resources to ensure compliance with GAAP and the rule and regulations of the SEC, especially with regards to equity based transactions and tax accounting expertise, (ii) lack of sufficient resources to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits to the SEC are recorded, processed, summarized, and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms. The control deficiencies noted did not result in any audit adjustments to the Company's 2014 transitional financial statements.
