NOTE 1: DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Business Activity
Creative Management Group, Inc. was
formed in Delaware on August 13, 2002 as a limited liability company named Creative Management Group, LLC. On August 7, 2007, this
entity converted to a corporation and changed its legal name to Creative Management Group Inc. The Company is a sports,
entertainment, marketing and management company providing event management implementation, sponsorships, licensing and broadcast,
production and syndication.
On February 20, 2008, Creative Management
Group, Inc. formed CMG Acquisitions, Inc., a Delaware company, for the purpose of acquiring companies and expansion strategies.
On February 20, 2008, Creative Management Group, Inc. acquired 92.6% of Pebble Beach Enterprises, Inc. (a publicly traded company)
and changed the name to CMG Holdings Group, Inc. (“the Company”). The purpose of the acquisition was to effect a reverse
merger with Pebble Beach Enterprises, Inc. at a later date. On May 27, 2008, Pebble Beach entered into an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization with its controlling shareholder, Creative Management Group, Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation. Upon closing
the eighty shareholders of Creative Management Group delivered all of their equity interests in Creative Management Group to Pebble
Beach in exchange for shares of common stock in Pebble Beach owned by Creative Management Group, as a result of which Creative
Management Group became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pebble Beach. The shareholders of Creative Management Group received one share
of Pebble Beach’s common stock previously owned by Creative Management Group for each issued and outstanding common share
owned of Creative Management Group. As a result, the 22,135,148 shares of Pebble Beach that were issued and previously owned by
Creative Management Group, are now owned directly by its shareholders. The 22,135,148 shares of Creative Management Group previously
owned by its shareholders are now owned by Pebble Beach, thereby making Creative Management Group a wholly-owned subsidiary of
Pebble Beach. Pebble Beach did not issue any new shares as part of the Reorganization. The transaction was accounted for as a reverse
merger and recapitalization whereby Creative Management Group is the accounting acquirer. Pebble Beach was renamed CMG Holdings
Group, Inc.
On April 1, 2009, the Company, through
a newly formed wholly owned subsidiary CMGO Capital, Inc., a Nevada corporation, completed the acquisition of XA, The Experiential
Agency, Inc. On March 31, 2010, the Company and AudioEye, Inc. (“AudioEye”) completed the final Stock Purchase Agreement
under which the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of AudioEye. On June 22, 2011 the Company entered into a
Master Agreement subject to shareholder approval as may be required under applicable law and subject to closing conditions with
AudioEye Acquisition Corp., a Nevada corporation where the shareholders of AudioEye Acquisition Corp. exchanged 100% of the stock
in AudioEye Acquisition Corp for 80% of the capital stock of AudioEye. The Company retained 15% of AudioEye subject to transfer
restrictions in accordance with the Master Agreement; on October 2012, the Company distributed to its shareholders, in the form
of a dividend, 5% of the capital stock of AudioEye in accordance with provisions of the Master Agreement.
On March 28, 2014, CMG Holdings Group,
Inc. (the “Company” or “CMG”), completed its acquisition of 100% of the shares of Good Gaming, Inc. (“GGI”)
by entering into a Share Exchange Agreement (the “SEA”) with BMB Financial, Inc. and Jackie Beckford, the then shareholders
of GGI. The sole owner of BMB Financial, Inc. is also the sole owner of Infinite Alpha, Inc. which provides consulting services
to CMG. Pursuant to the SEA, the Company received 100% of the shares of GGI in exchange for 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s
common stock, $33,000 in equipment and consultant compensation and a commitment to pay $200,000 in development costs. As of September
30, 2014, the Company has paid $58,600 of equipment and consultant compensation and $190,550 in development costs, of which $50,000
of the development costs had been advanced by the Company, prior to entering the agreement. In addition, pursuant to the SEA, CMG
shall adopt an incentive plan for GGI which shall entitle the GGI officers, directors and employees to receive up to 30% of the
net profits of GGI and up to 30% of the proceeds, in the event of a sale of GGI or its assets.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2014
(Unaudited)
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of CMG Holdings Group, Inc., XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. ("XA") and GGI after elimination
of all significant inter-company accounts and transactions.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and revenues and expenses during the period reported. Estimates are used when accounting for allowance for
doubtful accounts, depreciation, and contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentrations of Risk
Financial Institutions - The
Company maintains its cash balances at two financial institutions where they are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
up to $250,000 each. At September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, neither of these accounts was in excess of the limit. The Company
also maintains a money market investment account at one securities firm where the account is insured by the Securities Investor
Protection Corporation up to $500,000 for the bankruptcy, etc., of the securities firm. At September 30, 2014 and December 31,
2013, the account did not have a balance in excess of the limit.
Sales and Accounts Receivable - For
the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, one customer accounts for
0%, 93% and 72% of the Company’s total revenues, respectively.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company earns revenues by providing
event management services under individually negotiated contracts with varying terms, recognizing revenue in accordance with ASC
605, Revenue Recognition, only when the price is fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists,
the services have been provided and collectability is assured. In arrangements where key indicators suggest the Company
acts as principal, the Company records the gross amount billed to the client as revenue and the related costs incurred as cost
of revenues as the services are provided.
Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are amounts due
from event management services, are unsecured and are carried at their estimated collectible amounts. Credit is generally extended
on a short-term basis and do not bear interest, although a finance charge may be applied to amounts outstanding more than thirty
days. Accounts receivable are periodically evaluated for collectability based on past credit history with clients. Provisions for
losses on accounts receivable are determined on the basis of loss experience, known and inherent risk in the account balance and
current economic conditions. There were no allowances for doubtful accounts as of September 30, 2014 or December 31,
2013.
Share-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for share-based
compensation to employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification subtopic 718-10, Stock Compensation (“ASC
718-10”) and share-based compensation to non-employees in accordance with ASC 505-50 Accounting for Equity Instruments
Issued to Non-Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling, Goods or Services. ASC 718-10 and 505-50 require the
measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards, including stock options based on the estimated

Derivative Instruments
We generally do not use derivative financial instruments
to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks. However, certain financial instruments, such as warrants and the embedded
conversion features of our convertible promissory notes and debentures, which are indexed to our common stock, are classified as
liabilities when either (a) the holder possesses rights to net-cash settlement or (b) physical or net-share settlement is not within
our control. In such instances, net-cash settlement is assumed for financial accounting and reporting purposes, even when the terms
of the underlying contracts do not provide for net-cash settlement. Derivative financial instruments are initially recorded, and
continuously carried, at fair value.
Determining the fair value of these complex derivative financial
instruments involves judgment and the use of certain relevant assumptions including, but not limited to, interest rates, volatility
and conversion and redemption privileges. The use of different assumptions could have a material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts.
The Company accounts for derivative
instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and all derivative instruments are reflected as either
assets or liabilities at fair value in the balance sheet.
The Company uses estimates of fair value
to value its derivative instruments. Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between willing and able market participants. In general, the Company’s policy in estimating fair values is to
first look at observable market prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets, where available. When these are
not available, other inputs are used to model fair value such as prices of similar instruments, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment
speeds, default rates and credit spreads (including for the Company’s liabilities), relying first on observable data from
active markets. Additional adjustments may be made for factors including liquidity, credit, bid/offer spreads, etc., depending
on current market conditions. Transaction costs are not included in the determination of fair value. When possible, The Company
seeks to validate the model’s output to market transactions. Depending on the availability of observable inputs and prices,
different valuation models could produce materially different fair value estimates. The values presented may not represent future
fair values and may not be realizable. The Company categorizes its fair value estimates in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value
Measurements (ASC 820), based on the hierarchical framework associated with the three levels of price transparency utilized
in measuring financial instruments.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash
flows, the Company considers all short-term debt securities purchased with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at
cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization is computed using the straight-line method
over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets, which is generally between three and five years. Depreciation expense
was $0, $0 and $0 for the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets are stated at cost,
net of accumulated amortization. Amortization is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the
respective asset, which is three years. Amortization expense was $0, $0 and $0 for the three months ended and nine months ended
September 30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively.

Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes
using the asset and liability approach. 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 tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which
those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change
in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when
necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities
are adjusted for the effects of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.
Basic and Diluted Net Loss per Share
The Company computes net loss per share
in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share, which requires presentation of both basic and diluted earnings per share
(EPS) on the face of the income statement. Basic EPS is computed by dividing net loss available to common shareholders (numerator)
by the weighted average number of shares outstanding (denominator) during the period. Diluted EPS gives effect to all dilutive
potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method and convertible preferred stock using the
if-converted method. In computing diluted EPS, the average stock price for the period is used in determining the number of shares
assumed to be purchased from the exercise of stock options or warrants. Diluted EPS excludes all dilutive potential shares if their
effect is anti-dilutive.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has implemented all new
accounting pronouncements that are in effect and that may impact its financial statements and does not believe that there are any
other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on its financial position or results
of operations.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC 820 and ASC 825, Financial Instruments
(ASC 825), requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when
measuring fair value. It establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the level of independent, objective evidence surrounding the
inputs used to measure fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon
the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. It prioritizes the inputs into three levels that may
be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available
in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Active markets are those in which transactions
for the asset or liability occur in sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Level 1
primarily consists of financial instruments such as exchange-traded derivatives, marketable securities and listed equities.
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other
than quoted prices in active markets included in level 1, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported
date. Level 2 includes those financial instruments that are valued using models or other valuation methodologies. These models
are primarily industry-standard models that consider various assumptions, including quoted forward prices for commodities, time
value, volatility factors, and current market and contractual prices for the underlying instruments, as well as other relevant
economic measures. Substantially all of these assumptions are observable in the marketplace throughout the full term of the instrument,
can be derived from observable data or are supported by observable levels at which transactions are executed in the marketplace.
Instruments in this category generally include non-exchange-traded derivatives such as commodity swaps, interest rate swaps, options
and collars.
Level 3 – Pricing inputs include
significant inputs that are generally less observable from objective sources. These inputs may be used with internally developed
methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.
The Company’s financial instruments
consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities. Pursuant to ASC 820 and 825, the fair
value of cash is determined based on “Level 1” inputs, which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets. The recorded values of all other financial instruments approximate their current fair values because of their nature and
respective maturity dates or durations.
The following table sets forth by level
with the fair value hierarchy the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on September 30, 2014
and December 31, 2013:

Investments in Debt and Equity Securities
The Company applies the provisions of
Accounting Standards Codification 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities, regarding marketable securities.
The Company invests in securities that are intended to be bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near
term, and as a result, classifies such investments as trading securities. Trading securities are recorded at fair value on the
balance sheet with changes in fair value being reflected as unrealized gains or losses in the current period. In addition, the
Company classifies the cash flows from purchases, sales, and maturities of trading securities as cash flows from operating activities.

Preferred Stock
Series B Preferred Stock and Inventory
Purchase
On March 31, 2011 the Company acquired
20,000 cartoon animated cels (the “Cel Art”) from Continental Investments Group, Inc. (the “Agreement”).
The Company issued 50,000 shares of its Series B Convertible Preferred Stock to Continental Investments Group, Inc. as consideration
for the Cel Art, such shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock having a stated value per share of $100. The Cel Art consists
of collectible, hand-painted cartoon animation cels. The shares of Series B Preferred Stock are convertible into common shares
of the Company at the stated value of $100 per share divided by the volume weighted average trading price for the 30 days prior
to conversion. The preferred shares are non-voting and do not receive dividends. The Company determined the fair value of the preferred
stock to be $3,240,502 on the acquisition date based on the number of shares of common stock the preferred shares could be converted
into and the market price of the common stock on the agreement date. The cartoon animated cels are valued at the lower of cost
or market. As of December 31, 2011, Management wrote down the inventory to zero. The Company also analyzed the embedded conversion
option for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815-15 and determined that the conversion option should be classified
as equity. During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company determined that due to uncertainties related to future
sales of the Cel Art, the entire balance should be reserved as of December 31, 2011.

NOTE 3 - NOTES PAYABLE
Paul Sherman Agreement
On May 12, 2012, the Company modified
its July 24, 2011 agreement with Paul Sherman into a $9,943 convertible promissory note bearing interest at 2% and due on May 15,
2013. The convertible promissory note is convertible at a price equal to the close price on the day prior to Paul Sherman’s
request for conversion, but not to go below $.001. The Company analyzed the conversion option for derivative accounting consideration
under ASC 815-15 and determined that the instrument should be classified as a liability. The fair value of the embedded conversion
option resulted in a discount of $8,875 on the date of the note. The discount is being amortized over the term of the note to interest
expense. The discount balance was $0 and $0 as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Amortization
of $0 and $3,376 was recognized as interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the year ended December
31, 2013, respectively. The convertible promissory note has an outstanding balance of $9,943 and $9,943 as of September 30, 2014
and December 31, 2013, respectively.
Convertible Promissory Note
On September 30, 2014, the Company sold
a convertible promissory Note (the “Note”) in private placements to Iconic Holdings LLC. The principal amount of the
Note is $55,000. The Note is convertible, at the holder's option, into shares of our common stock, generally at 70% of the lowest
trading price of our common stock, for the prior 20 trading days. The Note bears interest at 10% annum, can be repaid at any time
prior to maturity with a prepayment penalty of 10% of the principal amount paid, is due on September 30, 2015 and contains customary
events of default and provide for increased interest rates in the event of default. We did not pay a placement
agent or other fees and the Note was issued with an original issue discount of $5,000. Net proceeds to the Company was $50,000.
The Note does not require us to register the shares of our common stock underlying their conversion.
The terms of the embedded conversion options in the Note
does not meet all of the established criteria for equity classification in FASB ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts
in Entity's Own Equity. Accordingly, the embedded derivative instrument in the Note (the conversion option),
is accounted for separately from the host contract, and is recorded at fair value of $81,627. The Company recorded a derivative
expense of $31,627 on the date of the Note. Accordingly, the initial carrying amount of the Note on the date of the Note was $0.
The embedded derivative instrument that has been separated from the Note, shall be re-valued each reporting period, with any changes
in their fair values recognized as a gain or loss in our income statement.

30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company recognized new derivative liabilities of $81,627 and $98,097, respectively,
as a result of new convertible debt issuances. The fair value of these derivative liabilities exceeded the principal
balance of the related notes payable by $31,627 and $0 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the year ended December
31, 2013, respectively. As a result of conversions of notes payable, the Company reclassified $0 and $9,240,920 from
equity and $0 and $0 of derivative liabilities to equity during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the year ended December
31, 2013, respectively. The Company recognized a gain of $11,121 and a gain of $210,810 on derivatives due to change
in fair value of the liability during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and the year ended December 31, 2013, respectively.
The fair value of the Company’s embedded derivative liabilities was $81,627 and $0 at September 30, 2014 and December 31,
2013, respectively.
Warrants
During 2011, 774,000 A Warrants and
774,000 B warrants were issued to individuals. The Company determined that the instruments embedded in the warrants should be classified
as liabilities. During March 31, 2010, 250,000 shares of warrants issued to AudioEye at an exercise price of $0.07 per
share and a term of 5 years.
Under ASC 815-15, the liabilities were
subsequently measured at fair value at the end of each reporting period with the change in fair value recorded to earnings. The
fair value of all outstanding warrants as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 was $3,195 and $11,121, respectively. The
Company recognized an expense of $381 and a gain $10,196 related to the warrants for the nine months ended June 30, 2014 and the

The embedded conversion options in the Notes, which is accounted
for separately as a derivative instrument is valued using a binomial lattice model because that model embodies all of the significant
relevant assumptions that address the features underlying these instruments. Significant assumptions used in the model as of the
date the Note was issued and as of September 30, 2014 included an expected life equal to the remaining term of the Note, an expected
dividend yield of zero, estimated volatility ranging of 116%, and a risk-free rate of return of 0.13%. For the risk-free rates
of return, we use the published yields on zero-coupon Treasury Securities with maturities consistent with the remaining term of
the Note. Volatility is based upon our expected common stock price volatility over the remaining term of the Note. The volatility
used for the Note is based on the Company’s 100-day volatility, which is considered a reasonable surrogate for the volatility
to be expected over the life of the Note. That volatility has generally ranged from 116% to 146%.

We are subject to certain claims and
litigation in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the outcome of such matters will not have a
material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
On April 21, 2011, the Company was served
with a lawsuit that was filed in Clark County, Nevada against the Company by A to Z Holdings, LLC and seven other individuals or
entities. The complaint alleges, among other things, that the Company’s Board of Directors did not have the power to designate
series A and B preferred stock without amending the articles of incorporation. The complaint also alleges any such amendment would
require shareholder approval and filing of a proxy statement. On April 20, 2012, the Company settled with A to Z Holdings, LLC
and seven other individuals or entities for $10,000.
On July 6, 2011, the Company was served
with a lawsuit filed in the Circuit Court for the County of Multnomah, Oregon. The complaint alleges breach of contract and entitlement
to consulting fees from the Company. The Company disagrees with the allegations contained in the Complaint and intends to vigorously
defend the matter and otherwise enforce its rights with respect to the matter. The Company has retained counsel and is prepared
to defend this lawsuit. The Company believes that the claims are frivolous pursuant to the terms of the contract. The case was
settled on September 28, 2012 for $30,000. The Company has accrued for this liability as of September 30, 2014 and December 31,
2013.
On September 23, 2014, XA filed a lawsuit
in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York against HG and its principals alleging wrongdoing by the defendants
in connection with soliciting XA’s clients and seeking against further contact with XA clients. The Company conducted an
internal investigation of actions taken by XA’s former employees during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. While the investigation
is not complete, we have discovered that there are numerous instances of conversion of XA assets and funds, such as personal charges
on company credit cards, payments for cell phones for family members, reimbursement for personal travel and other expenses which
did not relate to XA in any way, and transactions between XA and parties owned by these former employees who did not disclose their
interests in them. The Company and XA plan to complete the investigation, including recovering e-mails deleted by the former employees,
and to vigorously pursue any and all amounts wrongfully taken from XA.
In October,
2014, Ronald Burkhardt, XA,s former Executive Chairman and a current member of the Company’s Board of Directors filed a lawsuit
in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, alleging breach of his employment contract and seeking approximately
$695,000 in damages. The Company believes that Mr. Burkhardt’s claim is without merit and plans to vigorously defend the
lawsuit.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
The following discussion of our
financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial
statements and the notes to those financial statements appearing elsewhere in this Report.
Certain statements in this Report
constitute forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include statements, which involve risks and uncertainties,
regarding, among other things, (a) our projected sales, profitability, and cash flows, (b) our growth strategy, (c) anticipated
trends in our industry, (d) our future financing plans, and (e) our anticipated needs for, and use of, working capital. They are
generally identifiable by use of the words “may,” “will,” “should,” “anticipate,”
“estimate,” “plan,” “potential,” “project,” “continuing,” “ongoing,”
“expects,” “management believes,” “we believe,” “we intend,” or the negative of
these words or other variations on these words or comparable terminology. In light of these risks and uncertainties, there can
be no assurance that the forward-looking statements contained in this filing will in fact occur. You should not place undue reliance
on these forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements
speak only as of the date on which they are made, and, except to the extent required by federal securities laws, we undertake no
obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statements are
made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
Unless the context indicates otherwise,
the terms “Company”, “Corporate”, “CMGO”, “our”, and “we” refer to
CMG Holdings Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including XA, The Experiential Agency, Inc. (“XA”) and Good Gaming,
Inc. (“Good Gaming”).
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
Good Gaming has launched its website platform on October
17, 2014, with most features of the platform being functional or fully completed. Based on feedback of Good Gaming gamers, the
Company anticipates that the site will be a success and expects to generate a significant amount of subscribers over the next 12
months. Good Gaming held its inaugural tournament on October 24, 2014 and has planned additional tournaments beginning on December
12, 2014.
During the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and September
30, 2014, each of the employees in XA’s New York office, as well as its COO in Chicago resigned. The Company later learned
that each of these employees had, along with XA’s former CEO, formed a new company, called Hudson Gray, LLC (“HG”)
which was soliciting XA’s clients using confidential and proprietary information gained from their employment with XA.
On September 23, 2014, XA filed a lawsuit in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York
against HG and its principals alleging wrongdoing by the defendants in connection with soliciting XA’s clients and seeking
against further contact with XA clients. The Company conducted an internal investigation of actions taken by XA’s former
employees during the quarter ended September 30, 2014. While the investigation is not complete, we have discovered that there are
numerous instances of conversion of XA assets and funds, such as personal charges on company credit cards, payments for cell phones
for family members, reimbursement for personal travel and other expenses which did not relate to XA in any way, and transactions
between XA and parties owned by these former employees who did not disclose their interests in them. The Company and XA plan to
complete the investigation, including recovering e-mails deleted by the former employees, and to vigorously pursue any and all
amounts wrongfully taken from XA.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER
30, 2014
Gross revenues decreased from $1,048,407
for the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $120,058 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in revenues
was mainly due to the departure of certain personnel of and clients our subsidiary XA. After June 30, 2014, and the filing of the
Company’s Quarterly Report for the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company became become aware of wrongful acts by
its former employees as set forth above.
Cost of revenue decreased from
$722,819 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $64,203 for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in
cost of revenue was due to the decrease in revenues of XA.
Operating expenses decreased from $1,448,677 for the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $692,822
for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in operating expenses is due to the decrease in revenues and costs
of goods sold of XA.

the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to a net loss of $450,890 for the three months ended September 30, 2014.
The increase in net loss is due to the increase of the operating loss and decrease of Other Income from $400,270 and $284,471,
respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $572,764 and $121,874, respectively, during the three months
ended September 30, 2014. During the three months ended September 30, 2014, the net effect of the total realized and unrealized

for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to $7,646,532 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in revenues
was mainly due to the NBC Upfront Project having generated increased revenues in 2014 as compared to 2013 for XA.
Cost of revenue increased from
$4,526,627 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to $6,312,846 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in
cost of goods sold was due to the increase in revenues of XA.
Operating expenses increased from $6,599,658
for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to $9,220,728 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in operating
expenses is due to the increase in revenues of our subsidiary XA and research and development expenses of Good Gaming. In addition,
the Company incurred non-cash charges of $619,627, $120,813 and $87,500 in connection with the issuance of warrants issued to our
Chief Executive Officer, shares of common stock issued to former directors and a consultant and costs affiliated with the acquisition
of Good Gaming, Inc., respectively.
Net income decreased from $2,070,484
for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to a net loss of $1,618,697 for the nine months ended September 30, 2014. The
decrease in earnings is due to the differences of realized and unrealized gains of marketable securities incurred during the nine
months ended September 30, 2014 and September 30, 2013 and the non-cash charges incurred in our operating expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2014, the Company’s
cash on hand was $145,853. Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $1,227,805, as compared
to $11,939 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The Company recorded net loss of 1,618,697 for the nine months ended September
30, 2014 as compared to net income of $2,070,484 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Cash from investing activities for the
nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $832,070 as compared to cash from or used in investing activities of $0 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in cash from investing activities is due to the sales of shares of common stock of
Audio Eye by the company during the nine months ended September 30, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the
Company purchased computer equipment in the amount of $18,400 for its subsidiary, Good Gaming, Inc.
Cash provided by financing activities
for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was $65,000, as compared to $52,000 provided for the nine months ended September 30,
2013. On September 30, 2014, the Company sold a convertible promissory Note (the “Note”) in private placements to Iconic
Holdings LLC. The principal amount of the Note is $55,000 The Note is convertible, at the holder's option, into shares of our common
stock, generally at 70% of the lowest trading price of our common stock, for the prior 20 trading days. The Note bears interest
at 10% annum, can be repaid at any time prior to maturity with a prepayment penalty of 10% of the principal amount paid, is due
on September 30, 2015 and contain customary events of default and provide for increased interest rates in the event of default. We
did not pay a placement agent or other fees and the Note was issued with an original issue discount of $5,000. Net proceeds to
the Company was $50,000. The Note does not require us to register the shares of our common stock underlying their conversion.
The Company anticipates that it will
need approximately $1,250,000 to fund operations over the next 12 months. The Company anticipates that during the three months
ended March 31, 2015, the Company will generate sufficient revenues in its two subsidiaries to fund the operations. For the three
months ended December 31, 2014, the Company has sold three Convertible Promissory Notes to raise the required capital. In addition,
the Company anticipates that revenue generated will fund a portion of such cash requirements. There is no assurance that the Company
will be successful in raising the amounts required to fund operations or generate sufficient revenue to fund its operation. In
the event that the Company is unable to fund the operation it will not be able to continue as a going concern.
ITEM 4 - CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS
AND PROCEDURES
In view of the events described under
“Recent Events” above, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness
of the Company’s disclosure controls and internal controls. Based upon such evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2014, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not
effective due to the identification of material weaknesses in our internal controls over financial reporting which allowed for
theft of Company funds, assets and services.
A material weakness is a deficiency,
or a combination of control deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility
that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on
a timely basis. At any time, if it appears that any control can be implemented to continue to mitigate such weaknesses, it is immediately
implemented. As soon as our finances allow, we will hire sufficient accounting staff and implement appropriate procedures for monitoring
and review of work performed by our Chief Accounting Officer. It is the Company’s position that the weaknesses in internal
controls mentioned above and listed below allowed the former employees and the former XA Chief Executive Officer to commit wrongful
acts in XA which led to theft of Company funds and property, including the Company’s customer base and the entry by the Company
into non-arm’s length transactions to its detriment.
In performing this assessment, management has identified
the following material weaknesses:
|
● |
There is a lack of segregation of duties
necessary for a good system of internal control due to insufficient accounting staff due to the size of the Company
|
|
● |
Lack of a formal review process that
includes multiple levels of reviews
|
|
● |
Employees and management lack the qualifications
and training to fulfill their assigned accounting and reporting functions
|
|
● |
Inadequate design of controls over significant accounts and processes |
|
● |
Inadequate documentation of the components
of internal control in general
|
|
● |
Failure in the operating effectiveness
over controls related to valuing and recording equity based payments to employees and non-employees
|
|
● |
Failure in the operating effectiveness over controls related to valuing and recording debt instruments including those with conversion options and the related embedded derivative liabilities |
|
● |
Failure in the operating effectiveness
over controls related to recording revenue and expense transactions in the proper period
|
|
● |
Failure in the operating effectiveness over controls related to evaluating and recording related party transactions |
CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING
No change in the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting occurred during the period ended September 30, 2014, that materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Company s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1 – LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are subject
to certain claims and litigation in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the outcome of such matters
will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
In October, 2014, Ronald
Burkhardt, XA,s former Executive Chairman and a current member of the Company’s Board of Directors filed a lawsuit in the
Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, alleging breach of his employment contract and seeking approximately
$695,000 in damages. The Company believes that Mr. Burkhardt’s claim is without merit and plans to vigorously defend the
lawsuit.
ITEM 1A – RISK FACTORS
The Company is a smaller reporting
company and is therefore not required to provide this information.
ITEM 2 - UNREGISTERED SALES OF
EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On October 1, 2014 the Company sold
a Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $114,000 to Typenex Co-Investment, LLC. The principal amount includes an Original
Issue Discount in the amount of $10,000 and investor fees in the amount of $4,000. Total net proceeds to the Company were $100,000.
The Debenture bears interest at an annum rate of 10% and is payable in 5 equal installments that can be paid in cash or share
of the Company’s common stock. The number of shares to be issued for installment payments made in the form of shares of
the Company’s common stock, shall be calculated at 70% of the average of the three closing prices in the 20 trading days
prior to the date of conversion, of the Company’s common stock. The Note’s maturity date is August 1, 2015.
On October
10, 2014 the Company sold a Convertible Debenture in the principal amount of $115,000 to KBM Investments LLC. The principal amount
includes an Original Issue Discount in the amount of $11,000 and investor fees in the amount of $4,000. Total net proceeds to the
Company were $100,000. The Debenture bears interest at an annum rate of 8% and can be repaid at any time prior to the date of maturity.
The prepayment penalty for such prepayment ranges from 8% to 25% of the principal amount paid. On the 181st day from
the date of the Note, the Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock. The rate of such conversion is 75%
of the lowest 3 trading prices of the Company’s common stock during the ten trading days prior to the conversion date. The
Note’s maturity date is October 8, 2015.
Except as disclosed
above, all unregistered sales of the Company’s securities have been disclosed on the Company’s current reports on Form
