NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (U.S. $)

FOR THE three months ENDED march 31, 2012 AND 2011 (unaudited)

 

 

 

1. ORGANIZATION

 

Amaru, Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") hopes to develop the business of broadband entertainment-on-demand, streaming via computers, television sets, PDAs (personal digital assistant) and the provision of broadband services. Its business includes channel and program sponsorship (advertising and branding); online subscriptions, channel/portal development (digital programming services); content aggregation and syndication, broadband consulting services, broadband hosting and streaming services and e-commerce.

 

The Company was also in the business of digit gaming (lottery). The license has been suspended.

 

The key business focus of the company is to establish itself as the provider and creator of a new generation of entertainment-on-demand and e-commerce channels on broadband, and 3G (third generation) devices.

 

The Company delivers both wire and wireless solutions, streaming via computers, TV sets, PDAS and 3G hand phones.

 

The Company's business model in the area of broadband entertainment includes e-services, which would provide the company with multiple streams of revenue. such revenues would be derived from advertising and branding (channel and program sponsorship); on-line subscriptions; channel/portal development (digital programming services); content aggregation and syndication; broadband consulting services; broadband hosting and streaming services; on-line dealerships and pay per view services.

 

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Basis of accounting and presentation

 

The consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Amaru, Inc. and its majority owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. In addition, the company evaluates its relationships with other entities to identify whether they are variable interest entities as defined by Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Section 810 consolidation of variable interest entities and to assess whether it is the primary beneficiary of such entities. If the determination is made that the company is the primary beneficiary, then that entity is included in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with ASC 860.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Presentation as a going concern

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. The Company has an accumulated deficit of $41,469,107 and $41,322,752 at March 31 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company also has a working capital deficit of $2,844,183 and $2,744,354 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The Company has had difficulty in raising adequate additional funding.

 

The items discussed above raise substantial doubts about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. The Company will require additional financing in order to execute its operating plan and continue as a going concern. The Company cannot predict whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity, debt or another form. The Company may not be able to obtain the necessary additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. The Company plans also to attempt to address its working capital deficiency by increasing its sales, maintaining strict expense controls and seeking strategic alliances.

 

In the event that these financing sources do not materialize, or the Company is unsuccessful in increasing its revenues and ultimately returning to profitable operations, the Company will be forced to further reduce its costs, may be unable to repay its debt obligations as they become due or respond to competitive pressures, any of which circumstances would have a material adverse effect on its business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and reclassification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and reclassification of liabilities that might be necessary, should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Use of estimates

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all demand and time deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

 

Accounts receivable

 

Accounts receivable is stated at cost, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, if required. Receivables outstanding longer than the payment terms are considered past due. The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts for estimated losses when necessary resulting from the failure of customers to make required payments. The Company reviews the accounts receivable on a periodic basis and makes allowances where there is doubt as to the collectability of individual balances. In evaluating the collectability of individual receivable balances, the Company considers many factors, including the age of the balance, the customer’s payment history, its current credit-worthiness and current economic trends.

 

Property and equipment

 

Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Cost includes the price paid to acquire or construct the asset, including capitalized interest during the construction period, and any expenditures that substantially increase the assets value or extend the useful life of an existing asset. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Major repairs and betterments that significantly extend original useful lives or improve productivity are capitalized and depreciated over the periods benefited. Maintenance and repairs are generally expensed as incurred. The estimated useful lives of the assets range from 3 to 5 years.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Film library

 

Investment in the Company's film library includes movies, dramas, comedies and documentaries in which the Company has acquired distribution rights from a third party. For acquired films, these capitalized costs consist of minimum guarantee payments to acquire the distribution rights. Costs of acquiring the Company's film libraries are amortized using the individual-film-forecast method in accordance with ASC 926, "Accounting for Producers and Distributors of Films," whereby these costs are amortized and participations and residuals costs are accrued in the proportion that current year's revenue bears to management's estimate of ultimate revenue at the beginning of the current year expected to be recognized from the exploitation, exhibition or sale of the films. Ultimate revenue for acquired films includes estimates over a period not to exceed twenty years following the date of acquisition. Investments in films are stated at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value.

 

The valuation of investment in films is reviewed on a overall basis, when an event or change in circumstances indicates that the fair value of the film library is less than its unamortized cost. The fair value of the film is determined using management's future revenue and cost estimates and a discounted cash flow approach. Additional amortization is recorded in the amount by which the unamortized costs exceed the estimated fair value of the film. Estimates of future revenue involve measurement uncertainty and it is therefore possible that reductions in the carrying value of investment in films may be required as a consequence of changes in management's future revenue estimates.

 

The Company most recently completed an impairment evaluation in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009. The film library was determined to be impaired during the year ended December 31, 2009. In conducting the analysis, the Company used a discounted cash flow approach in estimating fair value as market values could not be readily determined given the unique nature of the respective assets. Based upon the analysis the Company determined that carrying amount of the film library exceeded its fair value by $19,166,406, as reflected Note 7.

 

Intangible assets

 

Intangible assets consist of gaming, software license and product development costs. Intangible assets which were purchased for a specific period are stated at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. Such intangible assets are reviewed for impairment in accordance with ASC 350, Accounting for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Such intangible assets are amortized over the period of the contract, which is 2 to 18 years.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Associate

 

An “Associate” is an entity over which the Company has significant influence and that is neither a subsidiary nor an interest in a joint venture. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over those policies.

 

The results of the Associate are incorporated in these financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, investments in the Associate are carried in the consolidated balance sheet at cost and adjusted for post-acquisition changes in the Company's share of the net assets of the associate, less any impairment in the value of individual investments. Losses of an Associate in excess of the group's interest in that associate (which includes any long-term interests that, in substance, form part of the Company's net investment in the Associate) are not recognized, unless the group has incurred legal or constructive obligations or made payments on behalf of the Associate.

 

Any excess of the cost of acquisition over the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities of the Associate recognized at the date of acquisition is recognized as goodwill. The goodwill is included within the carrying amount of the investment and is assessed for impairment as part of the investment. Any excess of the Company's share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities over the cost of acquisition, after reassessment, is recognized immediately in the consolidated profit and loss statement of operations. The Company currently has no goodwill related to the Associate. If the Company has transactions with the Associate, profits and losses are eliminated to the extent of the Company's interest in the relevant associate.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

 

Investments

 

The Company classifies its investments in marketable equity and debt securities as "available-for-sale", "held to maturity" or "trading" at the time of purchase in accordance with "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities." Equity securities held for trading as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $633,171, and $584,406, respectively. The changes relates to an unrealized gain of $48,765 and an unrealized loss of $72,221 were recognized for three months ended March 31, 2012 and, 2011, respectively.

 

Available-for-sale securities are carried at fair value with unrealized gains and losses, net of related tax, if any, reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) until realized. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific-identification basis. A decline in the market value of any available-for-sale security below cost that is deemed to be other than temporary will result in an impairment, which is charged to earnings.

 

Investments that are not publicly traded or have resale restrictions greater than one year are accounted for at cost. The Company's cost method investments include companies involved in the broadband and entertainment industry. The Company uses available qualitative and quantitative information to evaluate all cost method investments for impairment at least annually. An impairment is booked when there is an other-than-temporary difference between the carrying amount and fair value of the investment that would result in a loss.

Valuation of long-lived assets

 

The Company accounts for long-lived assets under ASC 360,"Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-lived Assets". Management assesses the recoverability of its long-lived assets, which consist primarily of fixed assets and intangible assets with finite useful lives, whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The following factors, if present, may trigger an impairment review: (i) significant underperformance relative to expected historical or projected future operating results; (ii) significant negative industry or economic trends; (iii) significant decline in the Company's stock price for a sustained period; and (iv) a change in the Company's market capitalization relative to net book value. If the recoverability of these assets is unlikely because of the existence of one or more of the above-mentioned factors, an impairment analysis is performed using a projected discounted cash flow method. Management must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of these respective assets. If these estimates or related assumptions change in the future, the Company may be required to record an impairment charge. Impairment charges would be included in the Company's consolidated statements of operations, and would result in reduced carrying amounts of the related assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:

 

Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

 

Level 2 Inputs – Quoted prices in markets that not active, or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

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

Income taxes

 

Deferred income taxes are determined using the assets and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred income taxes are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in years in which such temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred income taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. In addition, a valuation allowance is established to reduce any deferred tax asset for which it is determined that it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized.

 

The Company files income tax returns in the United States Federal jurisdiction and certain states in the United States and certain other foreign jurisdictions. The Company is beyond the statute of limitations subjecting it to U.S. Federal and state income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2008. No income tax returns are currently under examination by any tax authorities.

 

Income (loss) per share

 

The Company computes net income (loss) per common share in accordance with FASB ASC 260, “Earnings Per Share” (“ASC 260”) and SEC SAB 98. Under the provisions of ASC 260 and SAB 98, basic net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the amount available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted income per common share is computed by dividing the net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding plus the effect of any dilutive shares outstanding during the period. The Company has no common stock equivalents, which would dilute earnings per share.

 

Fair value of financial instruments

 

The carrying amounts for the Company's cash, other current assets, accounts payable, advances from related parties accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate their fair value due to their short term nature. Investments that are not publicly traded or have resale restrictions greater than one year are accounted for at cost. Trading securities are held at fair value based upon prices quoted on an exchange.

The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. For the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company incurred advertising expenses of $1,447 and $2,994, respectively.

 

Reclassifications

 

Certain amounts in the previous periods presented have been reclassified to conform to the current year financial statement presentation.

 

3. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05. The amendments of this ASU are effective at the same time as the amendments in ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, so that entities will not be required to comply with the presentation requirements in ASU No. 2011-05 that ASU No. 2011-12 is deferring. All other requirements in ASU No. 2011-05 are not affected by ASU No. 2011-12, including the requirement to report comprehensive income either in a single continuous financial statement or in two separate but consecutive financial statements. Public entities should apply these requirements for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, Balance Sheet Topic 210): Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. Offsetting, otherwise known as netting, is the presentation of assets and liabilities as a single net amount in the statement of financial position (balance sheet). Companies have the option to present net in their balance sheets derivatives that are subject to a legally enforceable netting arrangement with the same party where rights of set-off are only available in the event of default or bankruptcy.

3. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (continued)

 

ASU 2011-11 requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. An entity is required to apply the amendments for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. An entity should provide the disclosures required by those amendments retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The adoption of this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income. This ASU allows an entity the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In both choices, an entity is required to present each component of net income along with total net income, each component of other comprehensive income along with a total for other comprehensive income, and a total amount for comprehensive income. ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The amendments to the Codification in the ASU do not change the items that must be reported in other comprehensive income or when an item of other comprehensive income must be reclassified to net income. ASU 2011-05 should be applied retrospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The Company has adopted this guidance. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

 

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. This ASU represents the converged guidance of the FASB and the IASB (the Boards) on fair value measurement. The collective efforts of the Boards and their staffs, reflected in ASU 2011-04, have resulted in common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements, including a consistent meaning of the term "fair value." The Boards have concluded the common requirements will result in greater comparability of fair value measurements presented and disclosed in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (Codification) in this ASU are to be applied prospectively. For public entities, the amendments are effective during interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

·   The Company's cash balance was $67,758 at March 31, 2012 compared with $219,348 at December 31, 2011.

 

Revenue

 

Revenue from entertainment for the three months ended March 31, 2012 at $2,359 was lower than revenue of $3,143 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 by $784 (25%). It was mainly due to decrease in subscription received from new customers for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

Cost of Services

 

Cost of services for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $19,239 which decreased by $15,505 (45%) from $34,744 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. It was mainly due to decrease in cost spending on website design and media production costs by $17,827 (58%) from $30,648 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $12,821 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

Distribution expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 at $6,369 were lower by $1,003 (14%) as compared to the amount of $7,372 incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

 

The lower distribution expenses were attributed to decreased spending on advertisement and marketing expenses which decreased by $1,547 (52%) from $2,994 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $1,447 for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

 

GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

 

Administration expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 at $183,144 were lowered by $95,678 (34 %) as compared to the amount of $278,822 incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

 

The decrease in administrative expenses for the period ended March 31, 2011 was attributed mainly to the decrease in:

 

·   Depreciation and amortization. Equipment depreciation had decreased by $26,942 (49 %), from $55,530 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $28,588 for the period ended March 31, 2012. The decrease was mainly due to most of the intangible assets and equipment being fully amortized and allowed for during the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

·   Legal and professional expenses had decreased by $30,676 (64%), from $48,985 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 to $18,309 for the three months ended March 31, 2012. The decrease was mainly due as a result of costs reduction measures to reduce operating costs

 

26
 

(LOSS) INCOME FROM OPERATIONS

 

The Company incurred a loss from operations of $206,393 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 as compared to the loss from operations of $317,795 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 due mainly due as a result of costs reduction measures to reduce operating costs.

 

NET LOSS

 

Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2012, was $156,011 which increased by $344,002 (69%) from net loss of $500,013 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. The decrease was mainly due to as a result of costs reduction measures to reduce operating costs.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

The Company had cash at $67,758 at March 31, 2012 as compared to cash of $219,348 at December 31, 2011.

 

The Company does not finance its operations through short-term bank credit nor long-term bank loans as it believes that cash generated from its operations will be able to cover its daily running cost and overheads.

 

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, the Company had not entered into any transactions using derivative financial instruments or derivative commodity instruments. Accordingly the Company believes its exposure to market interest rate risk is not material.

 

Cash generated from operations will not be able to cover the Company's intended growth and expansion. The Company has plans in 2009 to expand its broadband coverage by launching new broadband sites in Asia Pacific region and Australia. No assurances can be made that such plans will be carried out in a timely manner.

 

The Company intends to raise additional funds, to fund its business expansion; however no assurances can be made that the Company will raise sufficient funds as planned.

 

ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The primary objective of our investment activities is to preserve principal while concurrently maximizing the income we receive from our investments without significantly increasing risk. Some of the securities that we may invest in may be subject to market risk. This means that a change in prevailing interest rates may cause the principal amount of the investment to fluctuate. For example, if we hold a security that was issued with a fixed interest rate at the then-prevailing rate and the prevailing interest rate later rises, the current value of the principal amount of our investment will decline. To minimize this risk in the future, we intend to maintain our portfolio of cash equivalents and short-term investments in a variety of securities, including commercial paper, money market funds, high-grade corporate bonds, government and non- government debt securities and certificates of deposit. In general, money market funds are not subject to market risk because the interest paid on such funds fluctuates with the prevailing interest rate. The Company held $633,171 and $584,406 in marketable securities as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 respectively.

 

The Company does not believe that it faces material market risk with respect to its cash and cash equivalents which totaled $67,758 and $219,348 at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.

 

The Company has no material long-term obligations or hedging activities.

ABILITY TO EXPAND CUSTOMER BASE

 

The Company's future operating results depend on our ability to expand our customer base for broadband services and e-commerce portals. An increase in total revenue depends on our ability to increase the number of broadband and e-commerce portals, in the US, Europe and Asia. The degree of success of this depends on

 

·   our efforts to establish independent broadband sites in countries where conditions are suitable.

 

·   our ability to expand our offerings of content in entertainment and education, to include more niche channels and offerings.

 

·   our ability to provide content beyond just personal computers but to encompass television, wireless application devices and 3G hand phones.

 

ABILITY TO ACQUIRE NEW MEDIA CONTENTS

 

The continued ability of the Company to acquire rights to new media contents, at competitive rates, is crucial to grow and sustain the Company's business.

 

AVAILABILITY OF TECHNOLOGICALLY RELIABLE NEW GENERATION OF BROADBAND DEVICES

 

The growth of demand for broadband services is dependent on the wide availability of technologically reliable new generation of broadband devices, at affordable prices to prospective customers of broadband services. The early and widespread availability and market adoption of new generation broadband devices, will significantly impact demand for broadband services and the growth of the Company's business.

 

CAPITAL INVESTMENT IN BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE BY GOVERNMENT AND TELCOS

 

The growth of demand for broadband services is dependent on the capital investment in broadband infrastructure by governments and Telcos. A significant source of demand for the Company's broadband services could be from homes and enterprises with access to high-speed broadband connections. The ability of countries to invest in public broadband infrastructure to offer public accessibility is subject to countries' economic health. The Company's prospects for business growth in Asia especially would be impacted by overall economic conditions in the territories that we seek to expand into.

 

COMPETITION FROM BROADBAND CABLE AND TV NETWORKS OPERATORS

 

The competition of services provided by broadband cable network operators and TV networks. As traditional TV networks and cable TV operators provide alternate supply of entertainment and on-demand broadband services, they are in competition with the Company, for market share. The Company, nevertheless, will continue to leverage on its advantage of ownership rights to its own portfolio of media content and its ability to provide broadband services over both the cable and wireless networks, at competitive rates.

 

The Company's business is reliant on complex information technology systems and networks. Any significant system or network disruption could have a material adverse impact on our operations and operating results. The Company's nature of business is highly dependent on the efficient and uninterrupted operation of complex information technology systems networks, may they, either be that of ours, or our Telco/ ISP partners.

 

All information technology systems are potentially vulnerable to damage or interruption from a variety of sources, including but not limited to computer viruses, security breach, energy blackouts, natural disasters and terrorism, war and telecommunication failures.

28
 

System or network disruptions may arise if new systems or upgrades are defective or are not installed properly. The Company has implemented various measures to manage our risks related to system and network disruptions, but a system failure or security breach could negatively impact our operations and financial results.

 

LAW AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING INTERNET

 

Increased regulation of the Internet or differing application of existing laws might slow the growth of the use of the Internet and online services, which could decrease demand for our services. The added complexity of the law may lead to higher compliance costs resulting in higher costs of doing business.

 

UNAUTHORIZED USE OF PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

 

Our copyrights, patents, trademarks, including our rights to certain domain names are very important to M2B's brand and success. While we make every effort to protect and stop unauthorized use of our proprietary rights, it may still be possible for third parties to obtain and use the intellectual property without authorization. The validity, enforceability and scope of protection of intellectual property in Internet-related industries remain uncertain and still evolving. Litigation may be necessary in future to enforce these intellectual property rights. This will result in substantial costs and diversion of the Company's resources and could disrupt its business, as well as have a material adverse effect on its business.

 

LAW AND REGULATIONS GOVERNING BUSINESS

 

As the Company continues to expand its business internationally across different geographical locations there are risks inherent including:

 

1) Trade barriers and changes in trade regulations

2) Local labor laws and regulations

3) Currency exchange rate fluctuations

4) Political, social or economic unrest

5) Potential adverse tax regulation

6) Changes in governmental regulations

 

OUTBREAK OF N1H1 VIRUS FLU PANDEMIC OR SIMILAR PUBLIC HEALTH DEVELOPMENTS

 

Any future outbreak of the N1H1 flu pandemic or similar adverse public health developments may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business operations, financial condition and results of operations.

 

ITEM 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

A system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended [the "Exchange Act"]) are controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that the information that the Company is required to disclose in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives, and management necessarily is required to use its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. In addition, the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Moreover, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

29
 

 

At the time of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2012, as of the date hereof, our Chief Executive officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2012. Subsequent to that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have re-evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1943, as amended) as of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements because of the identification of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting of the film library from the misinterpretation of accounting literature in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP").Thus, the Company recognizes that it has a material weakness in financial reporting due to a lack of staff with adequate knowledge of US GAAP. The Company will correct this weakness by hiring a consultant who is knowledgeable in US GAAP and by providing continuing professional education for the existing staff. It is the Company's intent to have a professional US GAAP consultant available on as needed basis in connection with the preparation of the Company's financial reports. The Company intends to have its senior accounting staff attend classes in US GAAP for a minimum of forty hours per calendar year. The Company believes that such corrective actions should eliminate this material weakness.

 

MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company's financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles. A Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and directors of the Company and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 

The Company's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the Company's financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with United States of America generally accepted accounting principles. A Company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and that receipts and expenditures of the Company are being made only in accordance with authorization of management and directors of the Company and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Company's assets that could have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

 

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in the framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO"), as supplemented by the COSO publication Internal Control over Financial Reporting - Guidance for Smaller Public Companies. Based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2011, based on these criteria. Management believes that this material weakness has no affect on our ability to present GAAP-compliant financial statements. Management does not believe that the weakness with respect to its procedures and controls had a pervasive effect upon the financial reporting and overall control environment due to our ability to make the necessary adjustments to our financial statements. Management is also aware that there is a lack of segregation of duties at the Company due to the fact that there are only four people dealing with financial and accounting matters. However, at this time, management has decided that considering the experience and abilities of the employees involved and the low quantity of transactions processed, the risks associated with such lack of segregation are low and the potential benefits of adding employees to clearly segregate duties do not justify the substantial expenses associated with such increases. Management will periodically reevaluate this situation.

30
 

This quarterly report does not include an attestation report of our registered independent auditors regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to attestation by our registered independent auditors pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit us to provide only management's report in this annual report.

 

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected.

 

MANAGEMENT'S REMEDIATION INITIATIVES

 

In addition to the re-evaluation discussed above, management has, subsequent to March 31, 2012, implemented the following procedures to address the material weakness noted above, including the following:

 

·   Enhanced the access to accounting literature, research materials and documents.

 

·   Identified third party professionals with whom to consult regarding complex accounting applications

 

·   Looking to additional staff to supplement our current accounting professionals with the requisite experience and training

 

The elements of our remediation plan can only be accomplished over time and we can offer no assurance that these initiatives will ultimately have the intended effects.

 

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

There have been no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

On February 23, 2009, M2B World Pte Ltd was served a summons in Singapore by Auston International Group Limited, claiming a sum of US$496,765 (S$760,050) to be paid as shortfall in Guaranteed Profit to M2B Game World Pte. Ltd for financial years 2006 and 2007, as part of the agreement for the acquisition of M2B Game World in December 20, 2005 between M2B World Pte Ltd and Auston International Group Limited. On March 20, 2009 in response to this summons, M2B World Pte. Ltd filed a counter-claim against Auston International Group Limited to claim damages amounting to US$1,568,172 and other damages as a result of material breaches on the part of Auston International Group Limited to the agreement of December 20, 2005 for the acquisition of M2B Game World Pte Ltd.

 

The Plaintiffs (Auston) have (on 12 May 2010) been granted leave to amend their Statement of Claim and M2B World has had its application for discovery of the 2006 and 2007 audited accounts of Auston granted.

 

On August 23, 2011, the Plaintiffs (Auston) had filed a Notice of Discontinuance to finally dismiss and discontinue the legal proceedings and M2B World Pte. Ltd had also filed a Notice of Discontinuance for final dismissal and  discontinuance of the counterclaim against the Plaintiffs.

 

ITEM 1A: RISK FACTORS

 

An investment in the Company's common stock involves a high degree of risk. One should carefully consider the following risk factors in evaluating an investment in the Company's common stock. If any of the following risks actually occurs, the Company's business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flow could be materially and adversely affected. In such case, the trading price of the Company's common stock could decline, and one could lose all or part of one's investment. One should also refer to the other information set forth in this report, including the Company's consolidated financial statements and the related notes.

 

THE COMPANY CONTINUES TO USE SIGNIFICANT AMOUNTS OF CASH FOR ITS BUSINESS OPERATIONS, WHICH COULD RESULT IN US HAVING INSUFFICIENT CASH TO FUND THE COMPANY'S OPERATIONS AND EXPENSES UNDER OUR CURRENT BUSINESS PLAN. THE COMPANY IS ALSO HOLDING A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF QUOTED EQUITY SECURITIES THAT IS AVAILABLE-FOR-SALE OR HELD FOR TRADING.

 

The Company's liquidity and capital resources remain limited. There can be no assurance that the Company's liquidity or capital resource position would allow us to continue to pursue its current business strategy. The Company's quoted equity securities held as assets are dependent on the market value. Any fluctuations or downturn in the securities market could adversely affect the value of these equity securities held. As a result, without achieving growth in its business along the lines it has projected, it would have to alter its business plan or further augment its cash flow position through cost reduction measures, sales of assets, additional financings or a combination of these actions. One or more of these actions would likely substantially diminish the value of its common stock.

 

THE MARKET MAY NOT BROADLY ACCEPT THE COMPANY'S BROADBAND WEBSITES AND SERVICES, WHICH WOULD PREVENT THE COMPANY FROM OPERATING PROFITABLY.

 

The Company must be able to achieve broad market acceptance for its Broadband websites and services, at a price that provides an acceptable rate of return relative to the Company-wide costs in order to operate profitably. There is no assurance that the market will develop sufficiently to enable the Company to operate its Broadband business profitably. Furthermore, there is no assurance that any of the Company's services will become generally accepted, nor is there any assurance that enough paying users and advertisers will ultimately be obtained to enable us to operate these business profitably.

 

32
 

BROADBAND USERS MAY FAIL TO ADOPT THE COMPANY'S BROADBAND SERVICES.

 

The Company's Broadband services are targeted to the growing market of Broadband users worldwide to deliver content and E-commerce in an efficient, economical manner over the Broadband networks. The challenge is to make the Company's business attractive to consumers, and ultimately, profitable. To do so has required, and will require, the Company to invest significant amounts of cash and other resources. There is no assurance that enough paying users and advertisers will ultimately be obtained to enable the Company to operate the business profitably.

 

FAILURE TO SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE THE COMPANY'S USERS AND ADVERTISERS MAY RESULT IN FAILURE TO ACHIEVE CRITICAL MASS AND REVENUE TO BUILD A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS.

 

The Company incurs significant up-front costs in connection with the acquisition of content, and bandwidth and network charges. The plan is to obtain recurring revenues in the form of subscription and advertising fees to use the Broadband services, either paid by the users or advertisers.

 

There is no assurance as to whether the Company will be able to maintain, or whether and how quickly the Company will be able to increase its user base, or whether the Company will be able to generate recurring subscription and advertising fees to such a level that would enable this line of business to continue to operate profitably. If the Company is not successful in these endeavors, the Company could be required to revise its business model, exit or reduce the scale of the business, or raise additional capital.

 

COMPETITION IN THE BROADBAND BUSINESS IS EXPECTED TO INCREASE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE BUSINESS TO FAIL.

 

The Company's Broadband services are targeted to the end user market. As the Broadband penetration rates increase globally, an increasing number of well-funded competitors have entered the market. Companies that compete with the Company's business include telecommunications, cable, content management and network delivery companies.

 

The Company may face increased competition as these competitors partner with others or develop new Broadband websites and service offerings to expand the functionality that they can offer to their customers. These competitors may, over time, develop new technologies and acquire content that are perceived as being more secure, effective or cost efficient than the Company. These competitors could successfully garner a significant share of the market, to the exclusion of the Company. Furthermore, increased competition could result in pricing pressures, reduced margins, or the failure of the business to achieve or maintain market acceptance, any one of which could harm the business.

 

THE INABILITY TO SUCCESSFULLY EXECUTE TIMELY DEVELOPMENT AND INTRODUCTION OF NEW AND RELATED SERVICES AND TO IMPLEMENT TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGES COULD HARM THE BUSINESS.

 

The evolving nature of the Broadband business requires the Company to continually develop and introduce new and related services and to improve the performance, features, and reliability of the existing services, particularly in response to competitive offerings.

 

The Company has under development new features and services for its businesses. The Company may also introduce new services. The success of new or enhanced features and services depends on several factors - primarily market acceptance. The Company may not succeed in developing and marketing new or enhanced features and services that respond to competitive and technological developments and changing customer needs. This could harm the business.

 

CAPACITY LIMITS ON THE COMPANY'S TECHNOLOGY AND NETWORK HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE MAY BE DIFFICULT TO PROJECT, AND THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO EXPAND AND/OR UPGRADE ITS SYSTEMS TO MEET INCREASED USE, WHICH WOULD RESULT IN REDUCED REVENUES.

 

While the Company has ample through-put capacity to handle its customers' requirements for the medium term, at some point it may be required to materially expand and/or upgrade its technology and network hardware and software. The Company may not be able to accurately project the rate of increase in usage of its network. In addition, it may not be able to expand and/or upgrade its systems and network hardware and software capabilities in a timely manner to accommodate increased traffic on its network. If the Company does not appropriately expand and/or upgrade our systems and network hardware and software in a timely fashion, it may lose customers and revenues.

33
 

INTERRUPTIONS TO THE DATA CENTERS AND BROADBAND NETWORKS COULD DISRUPT BUSINESS, AND NEGATIVELY IMPACT CUSTOMER DEMAND FOR THE COMPANY.

 

The Company's business depends on the uninterrupted operation at the data centers and the broadband networks run by the various service providers. The data centers may suffer for loss, damage, or interruption caused by fire, power loss, telecommunications failure, or other events beyond the Company. Any damage or failure that causes interruptions in the Company's operations could materially harm business, financial conditions, and results of operations.

 

In addition, the Company's services depend on the efficient operation of the Internet connections between customers and the data centers. The Company depends on Internet service providers efficiently operating these connections. These providers have experienced periodic operational problems or outages in the past. Any of these problems or outages could adversely affect customer satisfaction and customers could be reluctant to use our Internet related services.

 

THE COMPANY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE NEW CONTENT, OR MAY HAVE TO DEFEND ITS RIGHTS IN INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OF THE CONTENT THAT IS USED FOR ITS SERVICES WHICH COULD BE DISRUPTIVE AND EXPENSIVE TO ITS BUSINESS.

 

The Company may not be able to acquire new content, or may have to defend its intellectual property rights or defend against claims that it is infringing the rights of others, where its content rights are concerned. Intellectual property litigation and controversies are disruptive and expensive. Infringement claims could require us to develop non-infringing services or enter onto royalty or licensing arrangements. Royalty or licensing arrangements, if required, may not be obtainable on terms acceptable to the Company. The business could be significantly harmed if the Company is not able to develop or license new content. Furthermore, it is possible that others may license substantially equivalent content, thus enabling them to effectively compete against us.

 

THE COMPANY DEPENDS ON KEY PERSONNEL.

 

The Company depends on the performance of its senior management team. Its success depends on its ability to attract, retain, and motivate these individuals. There are no binding agreements with any of its employees that prevent them from leaving the Company at any time. There is competition for these people. The loss of the services of any of the key employees or failure to attract, retain, and motivate key employees could harm the business.

 

THE COMPANY RELIES ON THIRD PARTIES.

 

If critical services and products that the Company sources from third parties, such as content and network services were to no longer be made available to the Company or at a considerably higher price than it currently pays for them, and suitable alternatives could not be found, the business could be harmed.

 

THE COMPANY COULD BE AFFECTED BY GOVERNMENT REGULATION.

 

The list of countries to which our solutions and services could not be exported could be revised in the future. Furthermore, some countries may in future impose restrictions on streaming of broadband contents and related services. Failure to obtain the required governmental approvals would preclude the sale or use of services in international markets and therefore, harm the Company's ability to grow sales through expansion into international markets. While regulations in almost all countries in which our business currently operates generally permit the broadband services, such regulations in future may not be as favorable and may impede our ability to develop business.

 

THE COMPANY COULD BE AFFECTED BY PIRACY IN ASIA.

 

The Company is in the process of expanding its services globally, and in particular is entering specific countries in Asia with customized country sites. These country sites are designated to suit viewership patterns and styles in the countries they are launched in, and make use of the Company's content and intellectual property rights to the content. The piracy of content is a significant problem in many Asian countries, and it is not uncommon to see movies and television dramas appearing on illegal internet sites, and sold as pirated DVDs and VCDs. The extent of this piracy of content in the specific countries that the Company is launching its sites will adversely affect to a certain degree the amount of advertising and subscription revenues that the Company intends to earn.

34
 

THE COMPANY COULD BE AFFECTED BY ECONOMIC DOWNTURNS

 

The global economy underwent a massive downturn in 2009, which commenced in the second half of 2008. Many countries were faced with negative growth rates.. Where the media industry was concerned, major corporations reduced their advertising expenditures or even to cut back substantially all advertising and promotional expenditures towards the later half of 2008. The Company is heavily reliant on advertising and syndication revenues. Any future downturns in any one country that the Company operates its WOWtv service would significantly affect the Company's revenues.

 

OUR COMMON STOCK IS CONSIDERED A "PENNY STOCK". THE APPLICATION OF THE "PENNY STOCK" RULES TO OUR COMMON STOCK COULD LIMIT THE TRADING AND LIQUIDITY OF THE COMMON STOCK, ADVERSELY AFFECT THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR COMMON STOCK AND INCREASE THE TRANSACTION COSTS TO SELL THOSE SHARES.

 

Our common stock is a "low-priced" security or "penny stock" under rules promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In accordance with these rules, broker-dealers participating in transactions in low-priced securities must first deliver a risk disclosure document which describes the risks associated with such stocks, the broker-dealer's duties in selling the stock, the customer's rights and remedies and certain market and other information. Furthermore, the broker-dealer must make a suitability determination approving the customer for low-priced stock transactions based on the customer's financial situation, investment experience and objectives. Broker-dealers must also disclose these restrictions in writing to the customer, obtain specific written consent from the customer, and provide monthly account statements to the customer. The effect of these restrictions will likely decrease the willingness of broker-dealers to make a market in our common stock, will decrease liquidity of our common stock and will increase transaction costs for sales and purchases of our common stock as compared to other securities.

 

THE STOCK MARKET IN GENERAL HAS EXPERIENCED VOLATILITY THAT OFTEN HAS BEEN UNRELATED TO THE OPERATING PERFORMANCE OF LISTED COMPANIES. THESE BROAD FLUCTUATIONS MAY BE THE RESULT OF UNSCRUPULOUS PRACTICES THAT MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE PRICE OF OUR STOCK, REGARDLESS OF OUR OPERATING PERFORMANCE.

 

Shareholders should be aware that, according to SEC Release No. 34-29093 dated April 17, 1991, the market for penny stocks has suffered in recent years from patterns of fraud and abuse. Such patterns include (1) control of the market for the security by one or a few broker-dealers that are often related to the promoter or issuer; (2) manipulation of prices through prearranged matching of purchases and sales and false and misleading press releases; (3) boiler room practices involving high-pressure sales tactics and unrealistic price projections by inexperienced sales persons; (4) excessive and undisclosed bid-ask differential and markups by selling broker-dealers; and (5) the wholesale dumping of the same securities by promoters and broker-dealers after prices have been manipulated to a desired level, along with the resulting inevitable collapse of those prices and with consequent investor losses. The occurrence of these patterns or practices could increase the volatility of our share price.

 

WE DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY DIVIDENDS FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE, AND WE MAY NEVER PAY DIVIDENDS. INVESTORS SEEKING CASH DIVIDENDS SHOULD NOT PURCHASE OUR COMMON STOCK.

 

We currently intend to retain any future earnings to support the development of our business and do not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our payment of any future dividends will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors after taking into account various factors, including but not limited to our financial condition, operating results, cash needs, growth plans and the terms of any credit agreements that we may be a party to at the time. In addition, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock may be limited by Nevada state law. Accordingly, investors must rely on sales of their common stock after price appreciation, which may never occur, as the only way to realize a return on their investment. Investors seeking cash dividends should not purchase our common stock.

 

FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK COULD PUT DOWNWARD SELLING PRESSURE ON OUR COMMON STOCK, AND ADVERSELY AFFECT THE PER SHARE PRICE. THERE IS A RISK THAT THIS DOWNWARD PRESSURE MAY MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR AN INVESTOR TO SELL SHARE OF COMMON STOCK AT ANY REASONABLE PRICE, IF AT ALL.

 

Future sales of substantial amounts of our common stock in the public market or the perception that such sales could occur, could put downward selling pressure on our common stock and adversely affect its market price.

35
 

THE OVER THE COUNTER BULLETIN BOARD IS A QUOTATION SYSTEM, NOT AN ISSUER LISTING SERVICE, MARKET OR EXCHANGE. THEREFORE, BUYING AND SELLING STOCK ON THE OTC BULLETIN BOARD IS NOT AS EFFICIENT AS BUYING AND SELLING STOCK THROUGH AN EXCHANGE. AS A RESULT, IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO SELL YOUR COMMON STOCK OR YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO SELL YOUR COMMON STOCK FOR AN OPTIMUM TRADING PRICE.

 

The Over the Counter Bulletin Board (the "OTC BB") is a regulated quotation service that displays real-time quotes, last sale prices and volume limitations in over-the-counter securities. Because trades and quotations on the OTC Bulletin Board involve a manual process, the market information for such securities cannot be guaranteed. In addition, quote information, or even firm quotes, may not be available. The manual execution process may delay order processing and intervening price fluctuations may result in the failure of a limit order to execute or the execution of a market order at a significantly different price. Execution of trades, execution reporting and the delivery of legal trade confirmations may be delayed significantly. Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of our common stock at the optimum trading prices.

 

When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTC Bulletin Board, volatility of prices may increase and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information. Lower trading volumes in a security may result in a lower likelihood of an individual's orders being executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price one was quoted by the OTC Bulletin Board at the time of the order entry. Orders for OTC Bulletin Board securities may be canceled or edited like orders for other securities. All requests to change or cancel an order must be submitted to, received and processed by the OTC Bulletin Board. Due to the manual order processing involved in handling OTC Bulletin Board trades, order processing and reporting may be delayed, and an individual may not be able to cancel or edit his order. Consequently, one may not be able to sell shares of common stock at the optimum trading prices.

 

The dealer's spread (the difference between the bid and ask prices) may be large and may result in substantial losses to the seller of securities on the OTC Bulletin Board if the common stock or other security must be sold immediately. Further, purchasers of securities may incur an immediate "paper" loss due to the price spread. Moreover, dealers trading on the OTC Bulletin Board may not have a bid price for securities bought and sold through the OTC Bulletin Board. Due to the foregoing, demand for securities that are traded through the OTC Bulletin Board may be decreased or eliminated.

 

WE GENERATED A NET LOSS OF $156,011 AND $500,013 BEFORE TAXES FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2012 AND MARCH 31, 2011, RESPECTIVELY. WE MAY BE UNABLE TO CONTINUE AS A GOING CONCERN.

 

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that we will be able to realize our assets and discharge our liabilities in the normal course of business for the foreseeable future. We generated a consolidated net loss before taxes of $156,011 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to a consolidated net loss before taxes of $500,013 during 2011. We realized a negative cash flow from operating activities of $213,181 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $283,829 for the three months ended March 31,2011. For the three months ended 31 March 2012, we had an accumulated deficit of $40,876,876 and a working capital deficiency of $2,511,894 compared to an accumulated deficit of $40,757,707 and a working capital deficiency of $2,445,659  for the year ended December 31, 2011. At at March 31,2012, we had a stockholders' deficit of $670,975 compared to a stockholders' deficit of $578,709 as at December 31, 2011. Our ability to continue as a going-concern is in substantial doubt as it is dependent on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the receipt of continued financial support from our investors, our ability to raise equity or debt financing as we need it, and whether we will be able to use our securities to meet certain of our liabilities as they become payable. The outcome of these matters is dependent on factors outside of our control and cannot be predicted at this time.

 

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

As of April 26, 2012, the Company issued a total of 430,107 shares of  preferred stock through its private placement of shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock at a purchase price of $0.15 per share for a total amount of $64,516, to an  "accredited investor", as that term  is defined in Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933.
