Note 1 - Summary of Business Operations and Significant Accounting Policies

  

Nature of Operations and Business Organization

  

Monaker Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Monaker“, “we“, “our“, “us“, or “Company“) operate an online marketplace for the alternative lodging rental industry. Alternative lodging rentals (ALRs) are whole unit vacation homes or timeshare resort units that are fully furnished, privately owned residential properties, including homes, condominiums, villas and cabins, that property owners and managers rent to the public on a nightly, weekly or monthly basis. Our marketplace, NextTrip.com, unites millions of travelers seeking ALR online with property owners and managers of over one million vacation rental properties located in over 120 countries around the world. As of May 31, 2016, we operated our online marketplace through 115 websites in 16 languages, with leading websites in Europe, Asia, South America and the United States. As of May 31, 2016, our global marketplace included approximately 100,000 paid listings on subscriptions and contracted with over 1.1 million listings under the performance based listing arrangement ALRs (described in greater detail below). As an added feature to our ALR offering, we also provide activities and tours at the destinations that are catered to the traveler through our Maupintour products.

 

Our vacation rental platform includes auxiliary services so travelers can purchase vacations through one site; NextTrip.com (or through other online distributors sourced by NextTrip.com), and provides qualified inquiries and bookings to property owners and managers. NextTrip serves three major constituents: property owners and managers, travelers and other distributors. Property owners and managers pay to provide detailed listings of their properties on our websites with the goal of reaching a broad audience of travelers seeking ALRs. Listing fees paid by property owners and managers are paid either in the form of subscriptions that are generally for an annual period, or in the form of performance-based fees that allow for owners and managers to list their properties for free and pay us a commission for successful bookings; this allows owners and managers to list their property on NextTrip and pay a commission per booking in lieu of a pre-paid subscription fee. Currently we are working to convert owners and managers away from the subscription format into the performance-based format. This is transparent to the traveler yet more beneficial to the owners and managers as they accept a larger performance-based fee in return for relief from the up-front subscription fee and lower booking fee. Travelers visit NextTrip and are able to search and compare our large and detailed inventory of listings to find ALRs meeting their needs.

 

Monaker is a technology driven travel and logistics company with ALR inventory. Monaker’s inventory consists of ALRs owned and leased by third parties which are available to rent through Monaker’s websites. Core to the Company’s services are key elements including technology, an extensive film library, media distribution, trusted brands and established partnerships that enhance product offerings and reach. We believe that consumers are quickly adopting video for researching and educating themselves prior to purchases, and Monaker has carefully amassed video content, media distribution, key industry relationships and a prestigious Travel Brand as cornerstones for the development and planned deployment of core-technology on both proprietary and partnership platforms.

  

Monaker sells travel services to leisure and corporate customers around the world. The primary focus is on providing ALR options as well as providing schedule, pricing and availability information for booking reservations for airlines, hotels, rental cars, cruises and other travel products such as sightseeing tours, show and event tickets and theme park passes. The Company sells these travel services both individually and as components of dynamically-assembled packaged travel vacations and trips. In addition, the Company provides content that presents travelers with information about travel destinations, maps and other travel details; this content information is the product of proprietary video-centered technology that allows the Company to create targeted travel videos from its film libraries. In January 2016, the Company introduced a beta of its new Travel Platform under the NextTrip brand. This platform is still under development and continues to be improved with a focus on maximizing the consumer’s experience and assisting them in the decision and purchasing process.

 

The platform is a combination of proprietary and licensed technology that connects and searches large travel suppliers as well as perishing and alternative lodging inventories to present to consumers comprehensive and optimal alternatives at the most inexpensive rates to choose from.

 

The Company sells its travel services through various distribution channels. The primary distribution channel is through its own websites at Nexttrip.com and Maupintour.com. The second distribution channel is selling travel services to customers through a toll-free telephone number designed to assist customers with complex or high-priced offerings. The remaining distribution channels are in the final stages of deployment and include sales on other travel companies’ websites and sales through networks of third-party travel agents and travel portals.

 

Monaker’s core holdings include Nexttrip.com, and Maupintour.com along with platforms for vacation home rentals, timeshare rentals and discount travel. Nexttrip.com is the primary website, where travel services are booked. The travel services include, but are not limited to: ALR, tours, activities/attractions, air, hotel and car rentals. Maupintour feeds into Nextrip.com by providing high-end tour packages and activities/attractions.

 

 

Interim Financial Statements

 

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP“) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2016 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in our Form 10-K the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC“).

 

The results of operations for the three months ended May 31, 2016, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending February 28, 2017.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

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

 

Noncontrolling Interest and Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

 

The Company accounts for its less than 100% interest in consolidated subsidiaries in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, and accordingly the Company presents noncontrolling interests as a component of equity on its consolidated balance sheets and reports noncontrolling interest net loss under the heading “Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest“ in the consolidated statements of operations.. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for by either the equity or cost methods, generally depending upon ownership levels. The equity method of accounting is used when the Company’s investment in voting stock of an entity gives it the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee, which is presumed to be the case when the Company holds 20% to 50% of the voting stock of, or can otherwise demonstrate significant influence over, the investee. Unconsolidated affiliate companies in which the Company does not have significant influence and owns less than 20% of the voting stock are accounted for using the cost method. These investments in unconsolidated affiliates are assessed periodically for impairment and are written down if and when the carrying amount is considered to be permanently impaired.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The Company’s significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of intangible assets, stock based compensation, accrued expenses and derivative liabilities. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. While the Company believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, the actual amounts of such estimates, when known, will vary from these estimates. If actual results significantly differ from the Company’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition and results of operations could be materially impacted.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of balance sheet presentation and reporting of cash flows, the Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at May 31, 2016 and February 29, 2016.

 

Accounts Receivable

 

The Company extends credit to its customers in the normal course of business. Further, the Company regularly reviews outstanding receivables, and provides for estimated losses through an allowance for doubtful accounts. In evaluating the level of established loss reserves, the Company makes judgments regarding its customers’ ability to make required payments, economic events and other factors. As the financial condition of these parties change, circumstances develop or additional information becomes available, adjustments to the allowance for doubtful accounts may be required. The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses, and such losses traditionally have been within its expectations. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $-0- and $-0- at May 31, 2016 and February 29, 2016, respectively.

 

Website Development Costs

 

The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 “Website Development Costs“. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred. All costs associated with the websites are subject to straight-line amortization over a three-year period. For the three months ended May 31, 2016 and the year ended February 29, 2016, the Company has capitalized costs associated with website development of $89,269 and $1,817,945, respectively, and accumulated amortization of $9,452 and $780,860, respectively.

 

 

Software Development Costs

 

The Company capitalizes internal software development costs subsequent to establishing technological feasibility of a software application in accordance with guidelines established by “ASC 985-20-25“ Accounting for the Costs of Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, requiring certain software development costs to be capitalized upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenue, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Amortization of the capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized costs are amortized based on the greater of (a) the ratio of current gross revenues to the total current and anticipated future gross revenues, or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. For the three months ended May 31, 2016 and the year ended February 29, 2016, all software has been placed in service and all costs associated with the software development have been expensed.

 

Impairment of Intangible Assets

 

The Company acquired contracts, website platforms and domains during the three months ended May 31, 2016 and the year ended February 29, 2016 in the amount of $0 and $1,588,000, respectively.

 

In accordance with ASC 350-30-65 “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets“, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers important, which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

1.	Significant underperformance compared to historical or projected future operating results;
2.	Significant changes in the manner or use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and
3.	Significant negative industry or economic trends.

  

When the Company determines that the carrying value of an intangible asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent to the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. The Company did not record an impairment charge on its intangible assets during the three months ended May 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Intellectual properties that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives. The Company incurred amortization expense of $150,014 and $18,282 for the three months ended May 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Convertible Debt Instruments

  

The Company records debt net of debt discount for beneficial conversion features and warrants, on a relative fair value basis. Beneficial conversion features are recorded pursuant to the Beneficial Conversion and Debt Topics of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amounts allocated to warrants and beneficial conversion rights are recorded as debt discount and as additional paid-in-capital. Debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The Company enters into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments or are hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features. The Company accounts for these arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“ASC 815“) as well as related interpretations of this standard. In accordance with this standard, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, considering all of the rights and obligations of each instrument.

 

The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as freestanding warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to fair value these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black- Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of this accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income. 

 

 

Based upon ASC 815-25 the Company has adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to its outstanding convertible debentures. Pursuant to the sequencing approach, the Company evaluates its contracts based upon earliest issuance date.

 

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. On June 25, 2015, we effected a 1:50 reverse stock-split of all of our outstanding shares of common stock.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

 

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3: Inputs that are generally unobservable. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature. The fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments.

 

Going Concern

 

As of May 31, 2016, and February 29, 2016, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $94,688,981 and $93,562,357, respectively. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming the Company will continue as a going concern. As of May 31, 2016, the Company had a working capital deficit of $2,881,819, and for the three months ended May 31, 2015, a net loss of $1,126,624 and cash used in operations of $898,700.

 

We have very limited financial resources. We currently have a monthly cash requirement of approximately $300,000, exclusive of capital expenditures. We will need to raise substantial additional capital to support the on-going operation and increased market penetration of our products including the development of national advertising relationships, increases in operating costs resulting from additional staff and office space until such time as we generate revenues sufficient to support our operations. We believe that in the aggregate, we could require several millions of dollars to support and expand the marketing and development of our travel products, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and development costs, payment obligations, office space and systems for managing the business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from travel products are fully-implemented and begin to offset our operating costs. Our failure to obtain additional capital to finance our working capital needs on acceptable terms, or at all, will negatively impact our business, financial condition and liquidity. As of May 31, 2016 and February 29, 2016, we had $3,050,638 and $3,035,694, respectively, of current liabilities. These conditions raise substantial doubt of our ability to continue as a going concern. We currently do not have the resources to satisfy these obligations, and our inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to continue as a going concern.

 

Management’s plans with regard to this going concern are as follows: the Company will continue to raise funds with third parties by way of a public or private offering; and management and members of the Board are working aggressively to increase the viewership of our products by promoting it across other mediums which will result in higher revenues. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate greater revenues. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate additional revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.

 

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, requiring an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. Early adoption is not permitted. The updated standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In June 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-10, Development Stage Entities (Topic 915): Elimination of Certain Financial Reporting Requirements, Including an Amendment to Variable Interest Entities Guidance in Topic 810, Consolidation. The amendments in this Update simplify accounting guidance by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities. The amendments also reduce data maintenance and, for those entities subject to audit, audit costs by eliminating the requirement for development stage entities to present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder equity. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, related to the disclosures on going concern. The new standard provides guidance around management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

We have implemented all new relevant accounting pronouncements that are in effect through the date of these financial statements.

 

Note 2 – Note Receivable

 

On December 22, 2014, the Company advanced $15,000 to a non-related third party debtor and signed a one year, six percent (6%) promissory note in the amount of $15,000. The entire principal balance of this note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, is due and payable on December 31, 2016. This note receivable was part of the consideration for the purchase of the Company’s 51% membership interest in Name Your Fee, LLC, including approximately $1,000,000 in intangible assets which was sold on May 16, 2016, to the same non-related third party for cancellation of $45,000 in notes and a promissory note in the amount of $750,000.

 

Note 3 – Investment in Equity Instruments and Deconsolidation

 

On February 2, 2015, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Jasper Group Holdings, Inc. (“Jasper“) and created a Florida limited liability company named Name Your Fee, LLC. On April 20, 2015, the Company entered into a Joint Venture Agreement with Jasper to leverage its existing technology and develop www.NameYourFee.com which provides tools for employment agencies to market their services. The Company’s ownership in the Joint Venture was 51% and Jasper’s was 49%. The Company and Jasper shared in capital contributions as well as participated in the net profits of Name Your Fee, LLC while Jasper operated and ran the NameYourFee.com website. On May 15, 2015, the Company issued 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock to Jasper at a stated value of $5 per share for a total value of $500,000. As stated in the agreement, Monaker received a 51% capital interest and Jasper received a 49% capital interest of the outstanding equity of Name Your Fee, LLC. Additionally, Jasper contributed $75,000 in proceeds as part of the agreement. For the year ended February 29, 2016, the Company properly eliminated the value of the investment in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. On May 16, 2016, the Company sold its 51% membership interest in Name Your Fee, LLC to a non-related third party for cancellation of $45,000 in notes due to the Company and a promissory note in the amount of $750,000. The Promissory Note does not accrue interest, is secured by the 51% membership interest in Name Your Fee, LLC and will be repaid through 20% of the net earnings received in NameYourFee.com through maturity. The Note contains standard and customary events of default. The principal amount of the note is due on June 15, 2018, provided that it will not be an event of default under the note unless the note is not repaid within 60 days after such maturity date (i.e., by August 14, 2018).

 

On October 31, 2014 (the “Deconsolidation Date“), Monaker and RealBiz deconsolidated their financial statements since Monaker’s investment in RealBiz went below 50% majority ownership and Monaker was deemed to no longer have control over RealBiz. Monaker’s proportional financial interest in RealBiz is reduced when shares of Monaker Dual convertible preferred stock and Monaker convertible debt are exchanged for RealBiz shares of common stock. Since July 14, 2014, the holders of Series D Preferred Stock shares of the Company may elect to convert all or any part of such holder’s shares into common stock of the Company at the stated value of $12.50 per share on a one-for-one basis, or they may elect to convert the Series D Preferred Stock shares into shares of common stock of RealBiz stock at $0.15 per share. To honor the conversion of the Company’s Series D Preferred Stock shares into RealBiz shares of common stock, the Company identifies, one-for-one, shares of RealBiz Series A Preferred Stock shares held as investment and presents them to RealBiz for conversion into RealBiz common stock (on a one-for-one basis). When the converted RealBiz common stock shares are received by the Company, they are forwarded to the individual/entity requesting the conversion into shares of RealBiz restricted common stock.

 

Monaker continues to own RealBiz Preferred Series A and common stock and although the two Companies shared similar Board of Directors until April 2016, as discussed in the following sentence, the companies are operating independently. As of April 11, 2016, the Monaker Directors that were on the RealBiz Board, resigned as Board of Directors of RealBiz.

 

 

After November 1, 2014, we use the equity method to account for our investment in this entity because we do not control it, but have the ability to exercise significant influence over it. Equity method investments are recorded at original cost and adjusted periodically to recognize (1) our proportionate share of the investees’ net income or losses after the date of investment, (2) additional contributions made and dividends or distributions received, and (3) impairment losses resulting from permanent adjustments to net estimated realizable value. Accordingly, we recorded our proportionate share of the investee’s net income or loss as “Loss on equity method investment“ on the consolidated statements of operations.

 

At February 29, 2016, Monaker owned 44,470,101 shares of RealBiz Series A Preferred Stock and 10,359,890 shares of RealBiz common stock, representing 28% ownership of RealBiz. This interest, along with a net receivable balance due, has been written down to zero ($0) as of May 31, 2016 and February 29, 2016, to reflect the realizable value of this investment and asset.

The Promissory Note does not accrue interest, is secured by the 51% membership interest in Name Your Fee, LLC and will be repaid through 20% of the net earnings received in NameYourFee.com through maturity. The Note contains standard and customary events of default. The principal amount of the note is due on June 15, 2018, provided that it will not be an event of default under the note unless the note is not repaid within 60 days after such maturity date (i.e., by August 14, 2018).

Note 8 – Stockholders’ Deficit

 

Preferred stock

 

The aggregate number of shares of preferred stock that the Company is authorized to issue is up to One Hundred Million (100,000,000), with a par value of $0.00001 per share (“the Preferred Stock“) with the exception of Series A Preferred Stock shares having a $0.01 par value. The Preferred Stock may be divided into and issued in series. The Board of Directors of the Company is authorized to divide the authorized shares of Preferred Stock into one or more series, each of which shall be so designated as to distinguish the shares thereof from the shares of all other series and classes. The Board of Directors of the Company is authorized, within any limitations prescribed by law and the articles of incorporation, to fix and determine the designations, rights, qualifications, preferences, limitations and terms of the shares of any series of Preferred Stock.

 

Series A Preferred Stock

 

The Company has authorized and designated 3,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock as Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock“). The holders of record of shares of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to vote on all matters submitted to a vote of the shareholders of the Company and shall be entitled to one hundred (100) votes for each share of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

Per the terms of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Designations, subject to the availability of authorized and unissued shares of Series A Preferred Stock, the holders of Series A Preferred Stock may, by written notice to the Company:

 

	·	elect to convert all or any part of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock into common stock at a conversion rate of the lower of:
		(a) $25.00 per share; or
		(b) at the lowest price the Company has issued stock as part of a financing.

·

convert all or part of such holder’s shares (excluding any shares issued pursuant to conversion of unpaid dividends) into debt obligations of the Company, secured by a security interest in all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, at a rate of $25.00 of debt for each share of Series A Preferred Stock.

 

On July 9, 2013, the Company amended the Certificate of Designations for the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock to grant to a holder of the Series A Preferred Stock the option to:

 

·

elect to convert all or any part of such holder’s shares of Series A Preferred Stock into shares of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.00001 per share (“Series C Preferred Stock“), at a conversion rate of five (5) shares of Series A Preferred Stock for every one (1) share of Series C Preferred Stock; or to allow

·

conversion into common stock at the lowest price the Company has issued stock as part of a financing to include all financings such as new debt and equity financing and stock issuances as well as existing debt conversions into stock.

 

On February 28, 2014, the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock shareholders agreed to authorize a change to the Certificate of Designations of the Series A Preferred Stock in Nevada to lock the conversion price into common stock at a fixed price of $0.50.

 

Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging; Contracts in Entity’s own Equity (“ASC 815-40“) became effective for us on March 1, 2010. The Company’s Series A (convertible) Preferred Stock had certain reset provisions that require the Company to reduce the conversion price of the Series A (convertible) Preferred Stock if we issue equity at a price less than the conversion price. Upon the effective date, the provisions of ASC 815-40 required a reclassification to liability based on the reset feature of the agreements if the Company sells equity at a price below the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock. However, the reset provision was removed thereby eliminating the derivative liability as of February 28, 2014. In accordance with ASC 815-40, the Company records the changes in the fair value of the derivative liability as non-operating, non-cash income or expense. The change in fair value of the Series A Preferred Stock derivative liability as of February 29, 2016 and February 28, 2015 resulted in non-operating income of $-0- and $-0-, respectively.

 

 

In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, either voluntary or involuntary (any of the foregoing, a “liquidation“), holders of Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, prior and in preference to any distribution of any of the assets of this Company to the holders of the common Stock or any other series of Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership thereof an amount per share equal to $1.00 for each share (as adjusted for any stock dividends, combinations or splits with respect to such shares) of Series A Preferred Stock held by each such holder, plus the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends thereon (whether or not declared) from the beginning of the dividend period in which the liquidation occurred to the date of liquidation.

 

During the three months ended May 31, 2016, there were no transactions with regards to Series A Preferred Stock shares.

 

Dividends in arrears on the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock shares total $799,644 and $838,275 as of May 31, 2016 and February 29, 2016, respectively. The Company had 1,869,611 shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued and outstanding as of May 31, 2016 and February 29, 2016.

Such actions became effective upon the filing of the amendment to our Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

Legal Matters

 

The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation, other legal claims and proceedings involving matters associated with or incidental to our business, including, among other things, matters involving breach of contract claims, intellectual property and other related claims employment issues, and vendor matters. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.

 

On March 28, 2016, the Company was presented with a Demand for Arbitration, pursuant to Rule 4(a) of the American Arbitration Association Commercial Rules of Arbitration, whereby Acknew Investments, Inc. and Vice Regal Developments Inc. (Claimants) are arguing that $700,000 is due to them, even though they have already been paid said amounts through preferred shares that were issued as a guarantee and which Claimants converted into shares of common stock. In connection with the purchase of the stock of the entity that eventually became RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (RealBiz) that then and now constitutes significant operations of RealBiz, the Company issued 380,000 shares of Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares with a value of $1,900,000, which was considered the $1,200,000 value of the stock portion of the purchase price, and was also meant to guaranty the payment of the balance of $700,000. The Company contends that the obligation to pay the $700,000 was extinguished with the conversion of the Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares into shares of common stock. The date for arbitration has not been set and the Company will vehemently defend its position.

 

 

On May 11, 2016, RealBiz filed a Complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (Case Number 1:16-cv-61017-FAM)(the “Complaint“). The Complaint alleges $1,287,517 is due from us to RealBiz, and seeks the recovery of such amount, plus pre-judgment interest from October 31, 2015 and costs. The Complaint alleges causes of action including ‘account stated’ and ‘unjust enrichment’. In June 2016, we filed an Answer and Counterclaim to the Complaint (the “Counterclaim“) denying RealBiz’s allegations and claims and pleading affirmative defenses including ‘failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted’, ‘set-off’ rights (including that the amount owed by RealBiz to us far exceeds the $1.2 million amount that RealBiz alleges is due to it), ‘mistake or error’, ‘unclean hands’, ‘failure to state a claim’, ‘waiver’, ‘release’, ‘breach of contract’ and ‘rescission of letter addressing partial balance due’ (confirming that a letter upon which RealBiz’s case is predicated was rescinded shortly after its issuance and is of no force or effect). The Counterclaim seeks attorney’s fees and costs. The Counterclaim also alleges counterclaims against RealBiz for causes of action including ‘unjust enrichment’ (we allege that the net amount due to us from RealBiz is in excess of $9.5 million dollars), ‘money had and received’, ‘business disparagement’, and ‘breach of contract’, and seeks recovery of all actual damages, consequential damages and incidental damages, if any, including but not limited to attorney’s fees and costs, plus-prejudgment and post-judgment interest as well as the full amount owed by RealBiz. On July 7, 2016, RealBiz amended its Complaint to include a cause of action for tortious interference with contract relating to alleged actions undertaken by us in connection with an investor relations firm which RealBiz alleges they intended to retain. We believe the claims asserted in the Complaint, as amended, are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the lawsuit while simultaneously seeking to recover amounts we are owed. The Company has no basis for determining whether there is any likelihood of material loss associated with the claims and/or the potential and/or the outcome of the litigation.

 

On June 2, 2016, the Company paid an arbitration award of $81,572 ($73,959 plus interest of $7,613) to Twelfth Child Entertainment, LLC for a License Agreement settlement for rights to air programs regarding “Foreclosure to Fabulous“ television programming on the Company’s previously owned media business that was sold on January 21, 2016. The Company absorbed this settlement as part of its partnership commitment with Launch Media 360 which is an investment of the Company.

 

The Company is unable to determine the estimate of the probable or reasonably possible loss or range of losses arising from the above legal proceedings.

 

Note 10 – Business Segment Reporting

 

Accounting Standards Codification 280-16 “Segment Reporting“, established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial statements and required selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. It also established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and geographic areas. Operating segments are defined as components of the enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

 

The Company has one operating segment consisting of various products and services related to its online marketplace of travel and related logistics including destination tours / activities, accommodation rental listings, hotel listings, air and car rental. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is considered to be the Chief Executive Officer. The chief operating decision maker allocates resources and assesses performance of the business and other activities at the single operating segment level.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these unaudited financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates past judgments and estimates, including those related to bad debts, accrued liabilities, convertible promissory notes and contingencies. Management bases its estimates 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. The accounting policies and related risks described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 23, 2016 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of May 31, 2016, there had been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein.

Overview

 

Monaker Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries have been amassing vacation home inventory in efforts to become one of the world’s largest online marketplaces for the alternative lodging rental industry. Alternative lodging rentals (ALRs) are whole unit vacation homes or timeshare resort units that are fully furnished, privately owned residential properties, including homes, condominiums, villas and cabins, that property owners and managers rent to the public on a nightly, weekly or monthly basis. Our marketplace, NextTrip.com, has the capacity of uniting millions of travelers seeking ALR online with property owners and managers of over one million vacation rental properties located in over 120 countries around the world. As of May 31, 2016, we operated our online marketplace through 115 websites in 16 languages, with leading websites in Europe, Asia, South America and the United States. As of May 31, 2016, our global marketplace included approximately 100,000 paid listings on subscriptions and we contracted with over 1.1 million listings under the performance based listing arrangement ALRs (described in greater detail below). As an added feature to our ALR offering, we also provide activities and tours at the destinations that are catered to the traveler through our Maupintour products.

 

Our ambition is to become the largest vacation rental platform in the world with auxiliary services so travelers can purchase vacations through one site; NextTrip.com (or through other online distributors sourced by NextTrip.com) and to provide the most qualified inquiries and bookings to property owners and managers. NextTrip serves three major constituents: property owners and managers, travelers, and other distributors. Property owners and managers pay to provide detailed listings of their properties on our websites with the goal of reaching a broad audience of travelers seeking ALRs. Listing fees paid by property owners and managers are paid either in the form of subscriptions that are generally for an annual period, or in the form of performance-based fees that allow for owners and managers to list their properties for free and pay us a commission for successful bookings; this allows owners and managers to list their property on NextTrip and pay a commission per booking in lieu of a pre-paid subscription fee. Currently we are converting owners and managers away from the subscription format into the performance-based format. This is transparent to the traveler yet more beneficial to the owners and managers as they accept a larger performance-based fee in return for relief from the up-front subscription fee and lower booking fee. Travelers visit NextTrip and are able to search and compare our large and detailed inventory of listings to find ALRs meeting their needs.

 

The global vacation rental industry is large and growing, but also fragmented and inefficient. We believe we will benefit from having both a broad selection of ALR listings and a large audience of travelers as well as distributors. We believe that the broad selection of ALRs will attract more travelers and the large audience of travelers will in turn attract more ALRs from property owners and managers.

 

Monaker is a technology driven travel and logistics company with alternative lodging rental inventory. Monaker’s inventory consists of ALRs owned and leased by third parties which are available to rent through Monaker’s websites. Core to the Company’s services are key elements including technology, an extensive film library, media distribution, trusted brands and established partnerships that enhance product offerings and reach. We believe that consumers are quickly adopting video for researching and educating themselves prior to purchases, and Monaker has carefully amassed video content, media distribution, key industry relationships and a prestigious Travel Brand as cornerstones for the development and planned deployment of core-technology on both proprietary and partnership platforms.

 

 

Summary

Monaker sells travel services to leisure and corporate customers around the world. Our primary focus is on providing ALR options as well as providing schedule, pricing and availability information for booking reservations for airlines, hotels, rental cars, cruises and other travel products such as sightseeing tours, show and event tickets and theme park passes. The Company sells these travel services both individually and as components of dynamically-assembled packaged travel vacations and trips. In addition, the Company provides content that presents travelers with information about travel destinations, maps and other travel details; this content information is the product of proprietary video-centered technology that allows the Company to create targeted travel videos from its film libraries. In January 2016, the Company introduced a beta version of its new Travel Platform under the NextTrip brand. This platform is still under development and continues to be improved with a focus on maximizing the consumer’s experience and assisting them in the decision and purchasing process.

 

The platform is a combination of proprietary and licensed technology (described below) that connects and searches large travel suppliers as well as perishing and alternative lodging inventories to present to consumers comprehensive and optimal alternatives at the most inexpensive rates to choose from.

 

The Company sells its travel services through various distribution channels. The primary distribution channel is through its own websites at Nexttrip.com and Maupintour.com. The second distribution channel is selling travel services to customers through a toll-free telephone number designed to assist customers with complex or high-priced offerings. The remaining distribution channels are in the final stages of deployment and include sales on other travel companies’ websites and sales through networks of third-party travel agents and travel portals.

 

Monaker’s core holdings include Nexttrip.com, and Maupintour.com along with platforms for vacation home rentals, timeshare rentals and discount travel. Nexttrip.com is the primary website, where travel services are booked. The travel services include, but are not limited to: ALR, tours, activities/attractions, air, hotel and car rentals. Maupintour feeds into Nextrip.com by providing high-end tour packages and activities/attractions.

 

Additional holdings include a social media/discount travel platform and a 28% interest in RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (“RealBiz”) which was deconsolidated on October 31, 2014 and written off as of February 29, 2016 and February 28, 2015 as an unrealizable investment.

 

The Company owned approximately 28% of RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (“RealBiz”) as of May 31, 2016 which is represented by 44,470,101 shares of RealBiz Series A Preferred Stock and 10,359,890 shares of RealBiz common stock. In addition, the Company is owed in excess of $9.5 million dollars in funds as a net receivable balance due from RealBiz for amounts paid for the benefit of or on behalf of RealBiz. Both the shares and the net receivable have been written down to zero ($0) to reflect the realizable value of this investment and asset. On May 11, 2016, RealBiz filed a Complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (Case Number 1:16-cv-61017-FAM)(the “Complaint”). The Complaint alleges $1,287,517 is due from us to RealBiz, and seeks the recovery of such amount, plus pre-judgment interest from October 31, 2015 and costs. The Complaint alleges causes of action including ‘account stated’ and ‘unjust enrichment’. In June 2016, we filed an Answer and Counterclaim to the Complaint (the “Counterclaim”) denying RealBiz’s allegations and claims and pleading affirmative defenses including ‘failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted’, ‘set-off rights (including that the amount owed by RealBiz to us far exceeds the $1.2 million amount that RealBiz alleges is due to it), ‘mistake or error’, ‘unclean hands’, ‘failure to state a claim’, ‘waiver’, ‘release’, ‘breach of contract’ and ‘rescission of letter addressing partial balance due’ (confirming that a letter upon which RealBiz’s case is predicated was rescinded shortly after its issuance and is of no force or effect). The Counterclaim seeks attorney’s fees and costs. The Counterclaim also alleges counterclaims against RealBiz for causes of action including ‘unjust enrichment’ (we allege that the net amount due to us from RealBiz is in excess of $9.5 million dollars), ‘money had and received’, ‘business disparagement’, and ‘breach of contract’, and seeks recovery of all actual damages, consequential damages and incidental damages, if any, including but not limited to attorney’s fees and costs, plus-prejudgment and post-judgment interest as well as the full amount owed by RealBiz. On July 7, 2016, RealBiz amended its Complaint to include a cause of action for tortious interference with contract relating to alleged actions undertaken by us in connection with an investor relations firm which RealBiz alleges they intended to retain. We believe the claims asserted in the Complaint, as amended, are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the lawsuit while simultaneously seeking to recover amounts we are owed. The Company has no basis for determining whether there is any likelihood of material loss associated with the claims and/or the potential and/or the outcome of the litigation.

 

 

On February 2, 2015, the Company entered into a joint venture agreement with Jasper Group Holdings, Inc. (“Jasper”) and created a Florida limited liability company named Name Your Fee, LLC. On May 15, 2015, as required, the Company issued 100,000 shares of Series D Preferred Stock to Jasper at a stated value of $5 per share for a total value of $500,000. As stated in the agreement, Monaker received a 51% capital interest and Jasper received a 49% capital interest of the outstanding equity of Name Your Fee, LLC. Additionally, Jasper contributed $75,000 in proceeds as part of the agreement. The Company properly eliminated the value of the investment in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation. On May 16, 2016, the Company entered in to a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement for the sale of its 51% membership interest in Name Your Fee, LLC in exchange for a Promissory Note, maturing on June 15, 2018, in the amount of $750,000 plus the cancellation of $45,000 in existing promissory notes due from the purchaser. The Promissory Note does not accrue interest, is secured by the 51% membership interest in Name Your Fee, LLC and will be repaid through 20% of the net earnings received in NameYourFee.com through maturity. The Note contains standard and customary events of default. The principal amount of note is due on June 15, 2018, provided that it will not be an event of default under the note unless the note is not repaid within 60 days after such maturity date (i.e., by August 14, 2018).

 

Sufficiency of Cash Flows

 

Because current cash balances and our projected cash generated from operations are not sufficient to meet our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to issue additional capital upon terms acceptable to us. The sale of additional equity will result in additional dilution to our shareholders. A portion of our cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

For the Three Months Ended May 31, 2016 Compared to the Three Months Ended May 31, 2015

 

Revenues

 

Our total revenues decreased 72% to $95,099 for the three months ended May 31, 2016 compared to $336,093 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, a decrease of $240,994. The decrease in sales is mainly due to a decrease in revenues of $335,313 that were attributable to a non-travel business that was sold in January 2016 which was offset by an increase in revenues of $87,434 for our luxury tour operation which provides escorted and independent tours worldwide to upscale travelers. The Company has focused its efforts and resources on completing its platforms for alternative lodging products and has not budgeted marketing funds for revenue growth until such time as it launches the new NextTrip.com platform.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Our operating expenses include costs of revenue, technology and development, salaries and benefits, selling and promotions and general and administrative expenses. Our operating expenses increased 148% to $1,558,257 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to $627,319 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, an increase of $930,938. This increase was mainly attributable to the amortization of website development costs and intangibles and the addition of third party consultants working on the NextTrip.com platform.

 

Other Income (Expenses)

 

Interest expense decreased 97% to $59,916 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to $2,014,373 for three months ended May 31, 2015, a decrease of $1,954,457, which is due primarily to the reduction of notes payables from the sales of non-travel businesses as well as the conversion of promissory notes to equity during the period ended May 31, 2016.

 

 

Gain on sales of investment increased to $112,150 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to $0 for three months ended May 31, 2015 due to the sale of Name Your Fee, Inc.

 

Gain on settlement of debt increased to $284,300 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to $0 for three months ended May 31, 2015 due to the settlement of a disputed note payable.

 

Net Loss

 

We had a net loss $1,126,624 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to a loss of $2,563,677 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, a decrease of $1,437,053. The decrease in loss was primarily due to a decrease of $1,954,457 in interest expense.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

The following schedule represents obligations under written commitments on the part of the Company that are not included in liabilities:

 

		Current				Long Term
		February 28, 2017				February 28, 2018				February 28, 2019 and thereafter				Totals
Leases		$	70,508			$	101,796			$	88,159			$	260,463
Other			40,640				-0-				-0-				40,640
Totals		$	111,148			$	101,796			$	88,159			$	301,103

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

At May 31, 2016, we had $95,764 of cash on-hand, a decrease of $42,180 from $137,944 at the start of fiscal 2017. The decrease in cash was due primarily to operating expenses and website development costs.

 

We had negative working capital of $2,881,819 as of May 31, 2016 and an accumulated deficit of $94,688,981.

 

Net cash used in operating activities was $898,700 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to $384,134 for the three months ended May 31, 2015, an increase of $514,566. This increase was primarily due to an increase in the costs for third party consultants working on the NextTrip.com platform.

 

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was ($4,200) and $75,000 for the three months ended May 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities increased $681,220 to $860,720 for the three months ended May 31, 2016, compared to $179,500, for the three months ended May 31, 2015. This increase was primarily due to the net decrease of proceeds in the issuance of common stock and the exercise of warrants of $840,720 and proceeds received in advances of $20,000.

 

The growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital. We currently have limited financial resources and based on our current operating plan, we will need to raise additional capital in order to continue as a going concern. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise additional capital upon terms that are acceptable to us. We currently do not have adequate cash to meet our short or long-term objectives. In the event additional capital is raised, it may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders.

 

 

Monaker is a technology driven travel and logistics company with alternative lodging rental inventory. Monaker’s inventory consists of ALRs owned and leased by third parties which are available to rent through Monaker’s websites. Core to the Company’s services are key elements including technology, an extensive film library, media distribution, trusted brands and established partnerships that enhance product offerings and reach. We believe that consumers are quickly adopting video for researching and educating themselves prior to purchases, and Monaker has carefully amassed video content, media distribution, key industry relationships and a prestigious Travel Brand as cornerstones for the development and planned deployment of core-technology on both proprietary and partnership platforms.

 

We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. Due to the absence of a long standing operating history and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. Our revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven. We may never ever achieve profitable operations or generate significant revenues. Our future operating results depend on many factors, including demand for our products, the level of competition, and the ability of our officers to manage our business and growth. As a result of the emerging nature of the market in which we compete, we may incur operating losses until such time as we can develop a substantial and stable revenue base. Additional development expenses may delay or negatively impact the ability of the Company to generate profits. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our business model will be successful or that we can sustain revenue growth, achieve or sustain profitability, or continue as a going concern.

 

We have very limited financial resources. We currently have a monthly cash requirement of approximately $300,000, exclusive of capital expenditures. We will need to raise substantial additional capital to support the on-going operation and increased market penetration of our products and services including the development of national advertising relationships, increases in operating costs resulting from additional staff and office space until such time as we generate revenues sufficient to support our operations, if ever. We believe that in the aggregate, we could require several millions of dollars to support and expand the marketing and development of our travel products and services, repay debt obligations, provide capital expenditures for additional equipment and development costs, payment obligations, office space and systems for managing our business, and cover other operating costs until our planned revenue streams from travel products are fully-implemented and begin to offset our operating costs. Our failure to obtain additional capital to finance our working capital needs on acceptable terms, or at all, will negatively impact our business, financial condition and liquidity. As of May 31, 2016, we had approximately $3.1 million of current liabilities (an increase of $0.1 million from the $3.0 million of current liabilities as of February 29, 2016). We currently do not have the resources to satisfy these obligations, and our inability to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, our ability to continue as a going concern, and the value of our securities.

 

Since our inception, we have funded our operations with the proceeds from the private equity financings. Currently, revenues provide less than 10% of our cash requirements. The remaining cash need is derived from raising additional capital.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Market Risk

 

This represents the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in value of a financial instrument because of fluctuations in interest rates and market prices. We do not currently have any trading derivatives nor do we expect to have any in the future. We have established policies and internal processes related to the management of market risks, which we use in the normal course of our business operations.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

 

We have established and maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and Chief Financial Officer (CFO), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. As of May 31, 2016, based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, and in light of the material weaknesses we found in our internal controls over financial reporting as of February 29, 2016 (as described in greater detail in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 29, 2016), our CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded properly, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

 

In light of the material weaknesses described above, we have performed additional analysis and other post-quarter procedures to ensure our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and we have contracted with experts, where necessary, for assistance in analyzing and determining the proper accounting and financial reporting treatment for various of the Company’s complicated business transactions. Accordingly, management has concluded that the financial statements fairly present in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as at, and for, the periods presented in this report.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting to ensure we maintain an effective internal control environment. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

 

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation, other legal claims and proceedings involving matters associated with or incidental to our business, including, among other things, matters involving breach of contract claims, intellectual property and other related claims, employment issues, and vendor matters. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.

 

On March 28, 2016, the Company was presented with a Demand for Arbitration, pursuant to Rule 4(a) of the American Arbitration Association Commercial Rules of Arbitration, whereby Acknew Investments, Inc. and Vice Regal Developments Inc. (Claimants) are arguing that $700,000 is due to them, even though they have already been paid said amounts through preferred shares that were issued as a guarantee and which Claimants converted into shares of common stock. In connection with the purchase of the stock of the entity that eventually became RealBiz Media Group, Inc., the Company issued 380,000 shares of Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares with a value of $1,900,000, which was considered the $1,200,000 value of the stock portion of the purchase price, and was also meant to guaranty the payment of the balance of $700,000. The Company contends that the obligation to pay the $700,000 was extinguished with the conversion of the Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares into shares of common stock. The date for arbitration has not been set and the Company will vehemently defend its position.

 

On May 11, 2016, RealBiz filed a Complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (Case Number 1:16-cv-61017-FAM)(the “Complaint”). The Complaint alleges $1,287,517 is due from us to RealBiz, and seeks the recovery of such amount, plus pre-judgment interest from October 31, 2015 and costs. The Complaint alleges causes of action including ‘account stated’ and ‘unjust enrichment’. In June 2016, we filed an Answer and Counterclaim to the Complaint (the “Counterclaim”) denying RealBiz’s allegations and claims and pleading affirmative defenses including ‘failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted’, ‘set-off rights (including that the amount owed by RealBiz to us far exceeds the $1.2 million amount that RealBiz alleges is due to it), ‘mistake or error’, ‘unclean hands’, ‘failure to state a claim’, ‘waiver’, ‘release’, ‘breach of contract’ and ‘rescission of letter addressing partial balance due’ (confirming that a letter upon which RealBiz’s case is predicated was rescinded shortly after its issuance and is of no force or effect). The Counterclaim seeks attorney’s fees and costs. The Counterclaim also alleges counterclaims against RealBiz for causes of action including ‘unjust enrichment’ (we allege that the net amount due to us from RealBiz is between $5.8 million to $11.1 million dollars), ‘money had and received’, ‘business disparagement’, and ‘breach of contract’, and seeks recovery of all actual damages, consequential damages and incidental damages, if any, including but not limited to attorney’s fees and costs, plus-prejudgment and post-judgment interest as well as the full amount owed by RealBiz. On July 7, 2016, RealBiz amended its Complaint to include a cause of action for tortious interference with contract relating to alleged actions undertaken by us in connection with an investor relations firm which RealBiz alleges they intended to retain. We believe the claims asserted in the Complaint, as amended, are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the lawsuit while simultaneously seeking to recover amounts we are owed. The Company has no basis for determining whether there is any likelihood of material loss associated with the claims and/or the potential and/or the outcome of the litigation.

 

The Company is unable to determine the estimate of the probable or reasonably possible loss or range of losses arising from the above legal proceedings.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

 

There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in in Part I, Item 1A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 29, 2016, filed with the Commission on June 23, 2016, under the heading “Risk Factors”, and investors should review the risks provided in the Form 10-K, prior to making an investment in the Company. The business, financial condition and operating results of the Company can be affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including but not limited to those described in the Form 10-K for the year ended February 29, 2016, under “Risk Factors”, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause the Company’s actual financial condition and operating results to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, financial condition and operating results. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and stock price.

We claim an exemption from registration for the issuances and sales described above pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) and/or Rule 506 of Regulation D of the Securities Act, since the foregoing issuances did not involve a public offering, the recipients were (a) “accredited investors”; and/or (b) had access to similar documentation and information as would be required in a Registration Statement under the Securities Act, the recipients acquired the securities for investment only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof. The securities were offered without any general solicitation by us or our representatives. No underwriters or agents were involved in the foregoing issuances and grants and we paid no underwriting discounts or commissions. The securities sold are subject to transfer restrictions, and the certificates evidencing the securities contain an appropriate legend stating that such securities have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold absent registration or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. The securities were not registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

 

To honor the conversion of the Company’s Preferred Stock shares into RealBiz common stock shares, the Company identifies, one-for-one, shares of RealBiz Series A Preferred Stock shares held as investment and presents them to RealBiz for conversion into RealBiz common stock in connection with conversion of the Company’s Preferred Stock by the holders thereof. When the converted RealBiz common stock shares are received by the Company, they are forwarded to the individual/entity requesting the conversion into RealBiz common stock with a restrictive legend.

 

 

We claim an exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act for the conversions of preferred stock and cashless warrant exercises described above, as the securities were exchanged by us with our existing security holders in transactions where no commission or other remuneration was paid or given directly or indirectly for soliciting such exchange.
