Scores Holding Co., Inc. and Subsidiary

Notes To Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

 

Note 1. Organization

 

Basis for presentation

 

Scores Holding Company, Inc. and subsidiary (the “Company”) is a Utah corporation, formed in September 1981 and is located in New York, NY. Originally incorporated as Adonis Energy, Inc., the Company adopted its current name in July 2002. The Company is a licensing company that exploits the “SCORES” name and trademark for franchising and other licensing options.

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Scores Licensing Corp. (“SLC”).

 

Our condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts, as well as those of our wholly-owned subsidiary.  Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Our accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements.  The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated results of operations and financial position for the interim periods presented.  All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  These unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

 

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2014.

 

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Principles

 

Going Concern

 

As of June 30, 2014 the Company has incurred cumulative losses (since the inception of its business) totaling $(6,125,483) and a working capital surplus of $97,820. The Company had net income of $232,664 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.  Because of these conditions, the Company will require additional working capital to develop business operations. The Company intends to raise additional working capital through the continued licensing of its brand with its current and new operators.   There are no assurances that the Company will be able to achieve the level of revenues adequate to generate sufficient cash flow from operations to support the Company’s working capital requirements. To the extent that funds generated from any future use of licensing are insufficient, the Company will have to raise additional working capital. No assurance can be given that additional financing will be available, or if available, will be on terms acceptable to the Company.   If adequate working capital is not available, the Company may not continue its operations.

 

These conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of asset carrying amounts or the amount and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.

 

Concentration of Credit Risk

 

The Company earns predominately royalty revenues and to a lesser extent merchandise sales from 12 licensees.

 

With regards to 2014, concentrations of sales from 5 licensees range from 16% to 20%, which include receivables from 4 licensees ranging from 13% to 41% on these licensees for 2014. Included in these amounts for 2014 is 1 licensee considered a related party.  Sales from this licensee are 16%.  There are receivables from 2 licensees considered related parties of 22% and 41%.

 

F-4
 

  

With regards to 2013, concentrations of sales from 5 licensees range from 16% to 22%, which include receivables from 4 licensees ranging from 21% to 25% on these licensees for 2013. Included in these amounts for 2013 was 1 licensee considered related party. Sales from this licensee were 22%. There is a receivable from 1 related party licensee of 24%.

 

Revenue recognition

 

The Company records revenues earned as royalties under its license agreements as they are earned over the term of the license agreements. The terms of the royalties earned under these license agreements vary from a flat monthly fee to a percentage of the revenues of the licensee on a monthly basis. If a license agreement is terminated then the remaining unearned balance of the deferred revenues are recorded as earned if applicable.

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. Inter-company items and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

 

Cash and cash equivalents

 

The Company considers all highly liquid temporary cash investments, with a maturity of three months or less when purchased, to be cash equivalents. There are times when cash may exceed $250,000, the FDIC insured limit.

 

Income Per Share

 

Net income per share data for both the six-month period ending June 30, 2014 and 2013 are based on net income available to common shareholders divided by the weighted average of the number of common shares outstanding.  As of June 30, 2014, there are no outstanding stock options.

 

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The carrying value of cash, trade receivables, prepaid expenses, other receivables, related party payables and accrued expenses, if applicable, approximate their fair values based on the short-term maturity of these instruments. The carrying amounts of debt were also estimated to approximate fair value.

 

The Company utilizes the methods of fair value measurement as described in ASC 820 to value its financial assets and liabilities. As defined in ASC 820, fair value is based on the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In order to increase consistency and comparability in fair value measurements, ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes observable and unobservable inputs used to measure fair value into three broad levels, which are described below:

 

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for assets or liabilities. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to Level 1 inputs.

 

Level 2: Observable prices that are based on inputs not quoted on active markets, but corroborated by market data.

 

Level 3: Unobservable inputs are used when little or no market data is available. The fair value hierarchy gives the lowest priority to Level 3 inputs.

 

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

In June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”. The update gives entities a single comprehensive model to use in reporting information about the amount and timing of revenue resulting from contracts to provide goods or services to customers. The proposed ASU, which would apply to any entity that enters into contracts to provide goods or services, would supersede the revenue recognition requirements in Topic 605, Revenue Recognition, and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Industry Topics of the Codification. Additionally, the update would supersede some cost guidance included in Subtopic 605-35, Revenue Recognition – Construction-Type and Production-Type Contracts. The update removes inconsistencies and weaknesses in revenue requirements and provides a more robust framework for addressing revenue issues and more useful information to users of financial statements through improved disclosure requirements. In addition, the update improves comparability of revenue recognition practices across entities, industries, jurisdictions, and capital markets and simplifies the preparation of financial statements by reducing the number of requirements to which an entity must refer. The update is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within that reporting period. This updated guidance is not expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, cash flows or financial condition.

Effective December 9, 2013, we granted an exclusive, non-transferable license for the use of the “Scores Atlantic City” name to Star Light Events LLC (“Star Light”) for its gentlemen’s club in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Royalties under this license are payable at the rate of $10,000 per month, commencing in April 2014, and the license is for a term of five years, with five successive five year renewal terms. Pursuant to the written agreement, we also granted Star Light a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to sell certain licensed products bearing our trademarks. Starlight will purchase the licensed products from us or our affiliates at our cost plus 25%. Robert M. Gans, our President, Chief Executive Officer and a director, is the majority owner of Star Light Events LLC.

 

On December 9, 2013, the Company entered into a license agreement with its subsidiary, SLC, granting SLC the exclusive right to use certain trademarks, including the “Scores” stylized trademark, in connection with certain goods and services.  The grant of license also includes the right to issue sublicenses to third parties, subject to the approval of the Company.  Pursuant to the agreement, SLC shall pay to the Company a royalty, as determined by the Company, such as a percentage of net revenue or a flat fee, received in connection with the provision of services and/or sale of goods using the trademarks.  SLC may also pay a percentage, as determined by the Company, of all royalties received by SLC under any sublicense agreements.  SLC and any sublicensees are to adhere to quality standards as set by the Company, and the Company has the right to inspect all facilities and approve all promotional and marketing  materials as well as any related packaging.  The agreement has a one-year term with automatic one-year renewals, subject to either party’s election to terminate the agreement at least thirty days prior to such renewal.  The Company also has the right to terminate the agreement, with immediate effect, upon the occurrence of certain events.  The license is subject to any pre-existing license agreements as of the date of the agreement.

 

Note 4.   Intangible Assets

 

Trademark

 

In connection with the acquisition of SLC, the Company acquired the trademark to the name “SCORES”. This trademark had a net recorded value at June 30, 2014 of $ -0-. This trademark has been registered in the United States, Canada, Japan and the European Community. The trademark has been completely amortized by straight line methods over an estimated useful life of ten years. The Company’s trademark having an infinite useful life by its definition was amortized over ten years due to the difficult New York legal environment for which the related showcase adult club is operating. This intangible asset was fully amortized as of September 30, 2011.

Note 6. Settlement/Note Receivables

 

On September 26, 2011, the Company, Richard Goldring and Elliot Osher (Goldring and Osher were formerly two of the Company’s principal shareholders) (collectively the “Defendants”) and Sari Diaz et al. (the “Plaintiffs”) entered into a Court approved Joint Stipulation of Settlement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) relating to a purported class action and collective action on behalf of all tipped employees filed by Plaintiffs, pursuant to which Defendants agreed to make a settlement payment of $450,000 to resolve and settle awards to Plaintiffs and related Plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees. Additionally, the Defendants agreed to pay the employer portion of payroll taxes on approximately $300,000 in distributions, approximately $15,600.

 

In a settlement payment agreement among the Company, Goldring and Osher, the Company agreed to advance all of the Defendants’ obligations under the Settlement Agreement and to pay $64,500 of Goldring’s and Osher’s legal fees to their designated attorney. In consideration for the Company’s payment of these obligations, Goldring and Osher agreed, jointly and severally, to pay the Company $440,000 plus interest at the rate of 5% per annum on the unpaid balance of such amount, in 40 equal monthly payments of $11,965 per month. To secure his obligations under this agreement, Goldring agreed to assign to the Company a portion of his interests in a promissory note dated September 14, 2009 in the principal amount of $2,400,000 made by a third party to Goldring (the “Note”) and to grant the Company a security interest in the Note, which will remain in effect until his obligations under this settlement payment agreement are paid in full. As of June 30, 2014, the settlement receivable is $93,949.

 

On December 29, 2011 the Company entered into a Promissory Note with Goldring for $30,000 plus interest at the rate of 5% per annum on the unpaid balance.

Item 2.     Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

Overview

 

Scores Holding Company, Inc. (“Scores,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) was incorporated in Utah on September 21, 1981 under the name Adonis Energy, Inc. We adopted our current name in July 2002. Since 2003, we have been in the business of licensing the “Scores” trademarks and other intellectual property to fine gentlemen’s nightclubs with adult entertainment in the United States.  There are six such clubs currently operating under the Scores name, in New York City, Atlantic City, Baltimore, Chicago, Tampa, and New Orleans. There are five clubs: Savannah, Jacksonville, West Palm Beach, Detroit and Houston clubs that are operating but not subject to royalties until July 1, 2014.

 

On January 27, 2009, Mitchell’s East LLC, wholly owned by Robert M. Gans, acquired a majority interest in our outstanding capital stock.  I.M. Operating LLC (“IMO”), which is partially owned by Robert M. Gans who is also our majority shareholder, has signed a licensing agreement with us and commenced operations in New York of a new club (the “New York Club”) under the Scores name in May 2009. On December 9, 2013, we granted an exclusive, non-transferable license for the use of the “Scores Atlantic City” name to Star Light Events LLC (“Star Light”) for its gentlemen’s club in Atlantic City, New Jersey. Robert M. Gans, our President, Chief Executive Officer and a director, is the majority owner of Star Light Events LLC.   Throughout this report, we refer to the New York Club and Starlight as our affiliates, because of the common ownership by Mr. Gans. All other clubs are referred to as non-affiliated clubs or as licensees, a term that may include the New York Club and Starlight Club when the context requires.

 

On August 6, 2010, we appointed Robert M. Gans as our President and Chief Executive Officer and as a member of our Board.  Robert Gans and Martin Gans, one of our existing Board members, are brothers.  Also on August 6, 2010, we appointed Howard Rosenbluth as our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer.

Future Capital Requirements:

 

We have incurred losses since the inception of our business. Since our inception, we have been dependent on funding from private lenders and investors to conduct operations. As of June 20, 2014 we had an accumulated deficit of $(6,125,483). As of June 30, 2014, we had total current assets of $395,131 and total current liabilities of $297,311 or working capital of $97,820. As of December 31, 2013, we had total current assets of $343,335 and total current liabilities of $473,306 or negative working capital of $(129,971). The decrease in the amount of negative working capital has been primarily attributable to the decrease in our related party payable.

 

We will continue to evaluate possible acquisitions of or investments in businesses, products and technologies that are complimentary to ours. These may require the use of cash, which would require us to seek financing. We may sell equity or debt securities or seek credit facilities to fund acquisition-related or other business costs. Sales of equity or convertible debt securities would result in additional dilution to our stockholders. We may also need to raise additional funds in order to support more rapid expansion, develop new or enhanced services or products, respond to competitive pressures, or take advantage of unanticipated opportunities. Our future liquidity and capital requirements will depend upon numerous factors, including the success of our adult entertainment trademark licensing business.

The Company has no off balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on its financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
