PART I
ITEM 1. Business
Overview
NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. a Delaware
corporation (the “Company,” “NeoMedia,” “we,” “us,” “our,” and similar
terms), was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado. We have positioned ourselves to lead the development of
mobile barcode technology and services solutions that enable the mobile barcode ecosystem world-wide. NeoMedia harnesses the power
of the mobile phone in innovative ways with state-of-the-art mobile barcode solutions. With this technology, mobile devices with
cameras become barcode scanners, enabling a range of practical applications including mobile marketing and mobile commerce. In
addition, we offer licensing of our extensive intellectual property portfolio.
Products and Services
We provide a complete suite of mobile
barcode solutions to customers around the globe.
2D Core – Our 2D Core products
include NeoReader®, our barcode scanning application which is installed on mobile devices, NeoSphere®, our enterprise
grade barcode services solution, and QodeScan®, our self-service barcode services solution for small and medium businesses.
We offer these services directly to clients as well as offer Application Programmer’s Interface (“API”) and
Software Development Kit (“SDK”) versions of these solutions for inclusion in enterprise solutions.
| |
· |
NeoReader – a barcode
scanning application that transforms mobile devices into universal barcode readers, allowing users to scan all major barcode
types, including QR, Datamatrix, Aztec, EAN, UPC, PDF417, Code 39, Code 128 and more. Users launch the NeoReader application
on their mobile device, scan the barcode and are quickly linked either directly or indirectly through a resolution server
to specific content. From there, the consumer can access real-time product or service information, download content, send
a SMS, make a phone call, or complete a mobile commerce transaction. There is also a SDK available for NeoReader that allows
the integration of NeoReader functionality into enterprise implementations. |
| |
· |
NeoSphere and QodeScan
– cloud based Software As A Service (‘SAAS’) solutions that support barcode creation and management and
allow users (typically agencies, retailers and brands) to quickly develop, launch and manage a mobile barcode campaign by
providing barcode creation tools as well as reporting and analytics. We believe that NeoSphere and QodeScan afford marketers
the ability to better monetize their marketing initiatives, providing the tools to effectively manage their barcode-based
campaigns. |
IP Licensing – We have a
robust IP portfolio encompassing many barcode implementations and are willing to license our patents to all in the ecosystem.
SALES AND MARKETING
RELATIONSHIPS
We are focusing our sales activities primarily
in the United States and Europe and are expanding our business development activities, through partnerships, to other markets.
Proprietary Technology
Many of the products we sell to our customers
rely on hardware and software technologies provided to us by third parties under license. Certain of our products and services
combine these third party technologies with technologies that are proprietary to us. Our proprietary technology may be protected
by patent law, copyright law, trade secret law and other forms of intellectual property protection. Our proprietary technology
includes technologies that enable us to automate a number of back-end functions and technologies that allow customers to order,
change and manage their accounts easily without technical expertise. Some of our proprietary technologies are unique and may not
be legally utilized without a license from us. Although we believe that our suite of proprietary technologies offer customers
significant benefits, we do not believe that our proprietary technologies are sufficient to deter competitors from providing competing
products and services.
Competition
We believe that we have positioned ourselves
to compete as one of the leaders in the mobile barcode ecosystem. Our research indicates that the mobile barcode space is highly
fragmented and there are a large number of providers offering similar solutions globally. Moreover, we believe we are well positioned
and differentiated in our offering due to our intellectual property, including many patents, on which our products and services
are based. We expect that our intellectual property will serve as a competitive advantage as this market continues to mature.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, our market
is highly competitive and characterized by an increasing number of entrants that have introduced or developed products and services
similar to those we offer. We believe that competition will continue to intensify and increase in the near future. Our target
market is rapidly evolving and is subject to continuous technological change. As a result, our competitors may be better positioned
to address these developments or may react more favorably to these changes, which could have a material adverse effect on our
business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.
Intellectual Property
We rely on a combination of laws (including
patent, copyright, trademark, service mark and trade secret laws) and contractual restrictions to establish and protect our proprietary
rights. As of December 31, 2014, we owned a large number of patents (both awarded and pending) across both NeoMedia Technologies
and NeoMedia Europe GmbH. Our patents include IP in a number of different patent families and cover core concepts linking
the physical world to the electronic world many of which form the foundation for the mobile barcode ecosystem.
During 2014, we established IP agreements
with over 60 companies including leading brands and retailers. We are in discussions with other companies with regard to the licensing
of our patents and our services platforms. However, there can be no guarantee that any of these discussions will result
in future revenues.
We have an ongoing relationship with Global
IP Law Group (“Global IP”) for our intellectual property monetization and enforcement activities. Global IP
assists us in seeking out potential licensees of our intellectual property portfolio and assists us in enforcing our patent rights,
if required.
We have entered into confidentiality and
other agreements with our employees and contractors, including agreements in which the employees and contractors assign their
rights in inventions to us. We have also entered into nondisclosure agreements with our suppliers, distributors and some
customers in order to limit access to and disclosure of our proprietary information. Intellectual property laws, contractual
arrangements, and the other steps we have taken to protect our intellectual property will assist in preventing others from infringing
on our technologies or developing similar technologies.
We license, or lease from others, technologies
which may be used in our services. We expect that we and our customers could be subject to third-party infringement claims
as the number of competitors grows. Although we do not believe that our technologies or services infringe the proprietary
rights of any third parties, we cannot ensure that third parties will not assert claims against us in the future or that these
claims will not be successful.
We may be subject to claims that the technology
we have used in our operations have infringed upon intellectual property rights held by others. We will evaluate all such
claims and, if necessary and appropriate, seek to obtain licenses for the use of such technology. If we or our suppliers
are unable to obtain licenses necessary to use intellectual property in our operations, we may be legally liable to the owner
of such intellectual property. Moreover, even in those instances in which we are justified in denying claims that we have
infringed upon the intellectual property rights of others, we may nonetheless be forced to defend or settle legal actions taken
against us relating to allegedly protected technology, and such legal actions may require us to expend substantial funds.
See Item 1A Risk Factors for additional discussion of these risks.
Government
Regulation
Existing or future legislation could limit
the growth or use of the internet, mobile telecommunications, mobile marketing and/or mobile advertising, which would curtail
our revenue growth. Statutes and regulations directly applicable to internet communications, mobile commerce and mobile marketing
are becoming more prevalent and we anticipate there will be activity to determine how new and existing laws governing intellectual
property, privacy, libel and taxation apply to mobile marketing and advertising.
Some of our proprietary technology allows
the storage of non-specific demographic data from users. NeoMedia maintains current privacy policies and End User License Agreements
which can be accessed from our website at http://www.neom.com/privacy and http://www.neom.com/EULA which we believe
are current with best practices and guidelines in the United States.
Personnel
As of December 31, 2014, we had 11 personnel.
We believe that our personnel relations are good. None of our personnel are represented by a labor union or bound by a collective
bargaining agreement.
Management
Changes
None.
Research
and Development
We have incurred approximately $0.4 million
and $0.7 million in research and development expenses during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
You should carefully consider the following
factors and all other information contained in this Report before you make any investment decisions with respect to our securities.
Risks Related to
Our Business
We may be unable to continue as a going
concern based on our historical performance, which has included losses, an accumulated deficit, and a working capital deficit.
We may continue to generate losses and be unable to service our outstanding liabilities in the future.
We have historically incurred operating
losses, and we may continue to generate negative cash flows as we implement our business plan for 2015. There can be no assurance
that our continuing efforts to execute our business plan will be successful and that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which contemplates our continuation
as a going concern. Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $2.4 million as compared to net income of $28.5 million
for the year ended December 31, 2013. The operating results for the year ended December 31, 2014 included $3.3 million of net
losses related to financing instruments, a net gain of $4.2 million from extinguishment of debt and the operating results for
the year ended December 31, 2013 included $26.7 million of net gains related to financing instruments.
Net cash used in operations during the
years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $0.4 million each period. As of December 31, 2014, we have an accumulated deficit of
$239.4 million. We also have a working capital deficit of $39.2 million, including $37.4 million in current liabilities for our
derivative and debenture financing instruments which are due August 1, 2015 and for which we do not have the necessary capital
to re-pay.
We currently do not have sufficient cash
or commitments for financing to sustain our operations for the next twelve months if we are unable to generate sufficient cash
flows from operations. Our plan continues to be to develop new client and customer relationships and substantially increase our
revenue derived from our products/services and IP licensing. If our revenues do not reach the level anticipated in our plan, we
may require additional financing in order to execute our operating plan. If additional financing is required, we cannot predict
whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity, debt, or another form, and we may not be able to obtain the necessary
additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. In the event that financing sources are not available, or
that we are unsuccessful in increasing our revenues and profits, we may be unable to implement our current plans for expansion,
repay our debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The convertible debentures and preferred
stock used to finance the Company, which may be converted into common stock at the sole option of the holders, have a highly dilutive
impact when they are converted, greatly increasing the number of shares of common stock outstanding. During 2014, there were 3,834
million shares of common stock issued for these conversions. We cannot predict if or when each holder may or may not elect to
convert into shares of common stock.
In May 2014, we completed a merger to
increase the quantity of authorized shares of common stock available for issuance to satisfy the conversion rights under certain
outstanding convertible securities and avoid an event of default. We can provide no assurance that the additional quantity
of authorized shares will be sufficient to satisfy all future conversions of the outstanding convertible securities. If we have
insufficient authorized shares in the future due to security conversions or otherwise and are unable to respond to requests for
conversion, we may be subject to an event of default under the terms of such instruments.
Our management and Board may be unable
to execute their plans to grow our revenues and achieve continued profitability and positive cash flows, which could cause us
to discontinue our operations. The risk associated with a possible discontinuance of the business could prevent us from attracting
or retaining key personnel, which would have a material adverse effect on our business.
If our management and Board are unable
to maintain and execute our plans, then we may fail to grow our revenues, manage costs and achieve continued profitability and
positive cash flows, which may cause us to discontinue our operations. The risks associated with the possible discontinuance of
the business could further prevent us from attracting and retaining management and staff, which would have a material adverse
effect on our business.
All of our assets are pledged to secure
certain debt obligations. If we fail to repay and/or otherwise satisfy the debt obligations, our assets could be seized and liquidated
for the benefit of the debt holders.
The convertible debentures that were initially
issued to YA Global are secured by all of our assets. The secured convertible debentures mature on August 1, 2015. In the event
we are unable to repay and/or otherwise satisfy the secured convertible debentures in accordance with the related agreements,
our assets could be seized and liquidated for the benefit of the debt holders and result in the discontinuance of our business.
Our future profitability depends on
the timely introduction of new and updated products and the acceptance of these new and updated products in the marketplace.
Rapid technological change and market
development are typical for the industries we serve. Our future revenue and profitability will depend in large part on timely
development and introduction of new and upgraded products that address evolving market requirements. If we fail to effectively
launch new and innovative products or allow our current product offerings to become stale in our advancing industry, we may lose
market share to our competitors. Any inability, for technological or other reasons, to successfully grow and upgrade our product
portfolio could materially adversely affect our business.
Existing shareholders will experience
significant dilution when certain investors, such as YA Global, convert their preferred stock to common stock, convert convertible
debentures to common stock, or when the investors exercise their warrants for common stock.
The issuance of shares of common stock
pursuant to the conversion of our Series C and D convertible preferred stock, the conversion of convertible debentures to common
stock, or the exercise of warrants could result in a significant increase in the outstanding shares of common stock and will have
a material dilutive impact on our shareholders. Additionally, our net earnings per share would decrease and the market price of
our common stock per share would decline.
Our common stock is deemed to be “penny
stock” which may make it more difficult for investors to sell their shares due to suitability requirements.
Our common stock is deemed to be “penny
stock” as defined in Rule 3a51-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Certain requirements regarding penny stocks may reduce the potential market for our common stock by reducing the number of potential
investors. The penny stock designation could make it more difficult for investors in our common stock to sell shares to third
parties or to otherwise dispose of them. This could cause our stock price to decline.
Broker-dealers dealing in penny stocks
are required to provide potential investors with a document disclosing the risks of penny stocks. Moreover, broker-dealers are
required to determine whether an investment in a penny stock is a suitable investment for a prospective investor. These requirements
reduce the potential market of investors in our stock and could cause the stock price to decline. The potential market for “penny
stocks” is further reduced by a Deposit Trust Company (“DTC”) “chill”, which prevents trading from
occurring on the electronic trading system as further described below.
Due to the accounting treatment of
the convertible preferred stock, warrants and convertible debenture instruments issued by us, our net income or loss may not be
reflective of our operating performance and could have a material adverse impact on our market
During the years ended December 31, 2014
and 2013, we reported a net loss of $2.4 million and a net income of $28.5 million respectively. The net losses resulted primarily
from non-cash losses arising from the adjustment to value our derivative and debenture liabilities at fair value. The loss adjustments
are primarily due to modifications to the terms of the convertible debentures including the extension of the maturity date to
August 2015. We adjust the value of these liabilities to reflect the estimated fair value at each balance sheet date. As a result,
we could experience significant fluctuations in our reported net income or losses in future periods from financing related gains
or losses incurred to record the liabilities at fair value. The financing related gains and losses incurred to record the liabilities
at fair value have historically been significant and have resulted in net losses that are not reflective of the Company’s
operating performance as reporting in operating income or loss. The complexity associated the fair value calculations and sophistication
required by investors to distinguish and understand our operating performance relative to the reported net income and losses may
cause our financial statements to be difficult to comprehend, analyze, and assess. As a result, the potential investor market
for our common stock could be reduced resulting in a material adverse impact on our market value.
A majority of our assets are intangible
assets, which will have little or no value if our operations do not generate current or future cash flow.
At December 31, 2014, a majority of our
total assets were intangible assets, consisting primarily of rights related to our patents and other intellectual property. If
our results of operations do not generate sufficient cash flows in the future, the assets will have little or no value, which
could lead to us recognizing impairment losses for such assets. This could materially adversely affect the value of our stock
and the ability of our shareholders to recoup their investments in our stock.
At December 31, 2013, we carried goodwill
arising from the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible assets acquired in our purchase of NeoMedia Europe
GmbH. We test goodwill for impairment annually or when events or changes in circumstances may warrant. We may be required to record
a significant charge to earnings in our financial statements during the period in which any impairment of our goodwill or amortizable
intangible assets is determined, resulting in a materially adverse impact on our results of operations. As a result of our testing
goodwill for impairment at December 31, 2014, we determined that our goodwill was fully impaired.
We may not be able to compete effectively
in markets where our competitors have more resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our market is highly competitive and characterized
by an increasing number of entrants that have introduced or developed products and services similar to those we offer. We believe
that competition will continue to intensify and increase in the near future. Our target market is rapidly evolving and is subject
to continuous technological change. As a result, our competitors may be better positioned to address these developments or may
react more favorably to these changes, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition,
and results of operations.
We may be unable to protect our intellectual
property rights and may be liable for infringing the intellectual property rights of others, which could have a material adverse
effect on our business.
Our success is dependent upon our proprietary
technology, including patents and other intellectual property, and on the ability to protect proprietary technology and other
intellectual property rights. In addition, we must conduct our operations without infringing on the proprietary rights of third
parties. We also intend to rely upon unpatented trade secrets and the know-how and expertise of our employees, as well as our
patents. To protect our proprietary technology and other intellectual property, we rely primarily on a combination of the protections
provided by applicable patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret laws as well as on confidentiality procedures and licensing
arrangements. Although we believe that we have taken appropriate steps to protect our unpatented proprietary rights, including
requiring that our employees and third parties who are granted access to our proprietary technology enter into confidentiality
agreements, we can provide no assurance that these measures will be sufficient to protect our rights against third parties. Others
may independently develop or otherwise acquire patented or unpatented technologies or products similar or superior to ours.
Some provisions of our Certificate
of Incorporation and Bylaws may deter takeover attempts, which may limit the opportunity of our shareholders to sell their shares
at a premium to the then-current market price.
Some of the provisions of our Certificate
of Incorporation and Bylaws could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so might be beneficial
to our shareholders by providing them with the opportunity to sell their shares at a premium to the then-current market price.
On December 10, 1999, our Board adopted a shareholders’ rights plan and declared a non-taxable dividend of the right to
acquire one-one hundredth of a share of our Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, on each outstanding share of
our common stock to shareholders of record on December 20, 1999 and each share of common stock issued thereafter until a pre-defined
hostile takeover date. The shareholders’ rights plan, or so-called “poison pill”, was adopted as an anti-takeover
measure. The shareholders’ rights plan was designed to enable all shareholders not engaged in a hostile takeover attempt
to receive fair and equal treatment in any proposed takeover of us and to guard against partial or two-tiered tender offers, open
market accumulations, and other hostile tactics to gain control of us. The shareholders’ rights plan was not adopted in
response to any effort to acquire control of us at the time of adoption, however it may have the effect of rendering more difficult,
delaying, discouraging, preventing, or rendering more costly an acquisition of us or a change in control of us. Certain shareholders,
who were our founders, Charles W. Fritz, William E. Fritz and The Fritz Family Limited Partnership and their holdings, were exempted
from the triggering provisions of our shareholders’ rights plan, as a result of the fact that, as of the plan’s adoption,
their holdings might have otherwise triggered the plan. The Shareholder Rights Plan was due to expire December 10, 2009; however,
it was extended and remains in effect.
In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation
authorizes our Board to designate and issue preferred stock, in one or more series, the terms of which may be determined at the
time of issuance by our Board, without further action by shareholders, and may include voting rights, including the right to vote
as a series on particular matters, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion, redemption rights, and sinking fund
provisions.
Preferred stock may have a negative
impact on other stockholders or the pursuit of certain corporate actions.
The issuance of any preferred stock could
have a material adverse effect on the rights of holders of our common stock, and, therefore, could reduce the value of shares
of our common stock. In addition, specific rights granted to future holders of preferred stock could be used to restrict our ability
to merge with, or sell our assets to, a third party. The ability of our Board to issue preferred stock could have the effect of
rendering more difficult, delaying, discouraging, preventing, or rendering more costly an acquisition of us or a change in our
control.
In the future, there could be government
regulations and legal uncertainties that could harm our business.
Any new legislation or regulation, the
application of laws and regulations from jurisdictions whose laws do not currently apply to our business, or the application of
existing laws and regulations to the internet and other online services, could have a material adverse effect on our business,
prospects, financial condition, and results of operations. The growth and development of the market for mobile commerce may prompt
calls for more stringent consumer protection laws to impose additional burdens on companies conducting business online. The adoption
of any additional laws or regulations may decrease the growth of the internet, mobile telecommunications or other mobile services,
which could, in turn, decrease the demand for our services and increase our cost of doing business, or otherwise have a material
adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition, and results of operations.
ITEM 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
We are a “smaller reporting company” as defined
by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and, as such, are not required to provide this information.
ITEM 2. Properties
As of December 31, 2014, we leased one
office space facility for our business purposes, our headquarters in Boulder, Colorado. The Boulder, Colorado lease is an annual
lease, of 2,303 square feet, expiring on March 31, 2019, with average monthly payments of approximately $5,690. We sublease portions
of the space in our Boulder headquarters to other companies to offset the rent paid directly by NeoMedia.
In February 2014, we entered into an amended
lease arrangement for NeoMedia Europe GmbH’s office lease. Under the terms of the new arrangement, approximately 125 square
meters are leased for a term to expire on March 31, 2015, with a monthly rent of approximately $2,400.
ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, we are involved in
various legal actions arising in the normal course of business, both as claimant and defendant. Although it is not possible to
determine with certainty the outcome of these matters, we believe the eventual resolution of any ongoing legal actions is unlikely
to have a material impact on our financial position or operating results. In addition to the normal course of business we are
engaged in the litigation described below:
Scanbuy v. NeoMedia
On March 21, 2014, Scanbuy, Inc. (“Scanbuy”)
filed a complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery alleging, among other claims, that NeoMedia violated the Delaware Deceptive
Trade Practices Act, 6 Del. C. § 2532(8), by sending letters to certain of Scanbuy’s customers, which state that the
use of NeoMedia’s technology by Scanbuy and its customers constitutes patent infringement. On April 14, 2014, NeoMedia
filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on the grounds that venue is improper in Delaware pursuant to a Settlement and License
Agreement entered into by NeoMedia and Scanbuy on October 16, 2009. On October 31, 2014, the Court of Chancery granted NeoMedia’s
motion to dismiss and Scanbuy’s complaint was dismissed by the court without prejudice. All claims in this case were
subsequently settled effective as of December 31, 2014.
NeoMedia v. Scanbuy
On May 7, 2014, the Company filed a lawsuit
against Scanbuy, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia, Atlanta Division, styled as NeoMedia Technologies,
Inc. v. Scanbuy, Inc., Civil Action No. 1:14-cv-01379-AT (the “Scanbuy Georgia Litigation”). NeoMedia’s
Complaint alleged infringement of NeoMedia’s U.S. Patents Numbers 6,199,048 (the “ ‘048 Patent”) and 8,131,597
(the “ ‘597 Patent”) and violations of the Section 43(a) of the Lanham Act. On June 19, 2014, the Company
filed an Amended Complaint against Scanbuy, which asserted the same causes of action as in the original Complaint. On June
3, 2014, Scanbuy responded to NeoMedia’s Amended Complaint by filing an Answer and Counterclaims against the Company and
a motion to dismiss the Company’s Lanham Act claims. Scanbuy’s Counterclaims against the Company allege, among
other claims, claims for breach of non-disclosure agreement and for declaratory judgments that NeoMedia’s ‘048 and
‘597 Patents are not infringed and are invalid. Scanbuy also filed motions requesting the court to transfer the Scanbuy
Georgia Litigation to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. All claims and counterclaims
in this case were subsequently settled, effective as of December 31, 2014. On January 30, 2015, the parties filed, and the
court entered, a Stipulation and Consent Order of Dismissal with prejudice.

We had five stock option plans –
the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan, the 2005 Stock Option Plan, the 2003 Stock Option Plan, the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, and the
2002 Stock Option Plan. Options issued under these option plans had a term of up to 10 years. Options were granted with a vesting
schedule as approved by the Stock Option Committee and/or the Board, but generally the vesting periods ranged from immediate vesting
to 5 years. Common shares required to be issued on the exercise of stock options were to be issued from our authorized and unissued
shares.
However, we no longer offer stock based
compensation as part of our compensation packages for employees, contractors and/or Directors. On October 6, 2014, our Board of
Directors elected to terminate all existing Stock Option and Incentive plans due to the significant cost to maintain and report
on the plans as they do not achieve the goals intended. Thus, the 2002, 2005 Stock Option Plans and the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan
were effectively terminated with no accounting requirements since no options or shares were issued. The 2003 Stock Option Plan
with 397,613 options issued was effectively terminated with no accounting requirements as the term of the options have expired
or the holders of the options no longer meet the requirements of holding the options due to termination of employment.
The 2011 Stock Plan was effectively terminated
subject to the holder’s rights to the options remaining open provided they meet the requirements of the options. Per discussion
with eligible holders, each holder (current board members or officers and one previous officer of the corporation) waived their
rights to exercise of the options.

ITEM 7. Management‘s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations
Introduction
The following discussion and analysis
should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the Notes thereto included in this Report. The information
contained below includes statements of management’s beliefs, expectations, hopes, goals and plans that, if not historical,
are forward-looking statements subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. For a discussion on forward-looking statements, see the information
set forth in the introductory note to this Report under the caption Note About Forward-Looking Statements, which information is
incorporated herein by reference.
Overview
NeoMedia has positioned itself to lead
the world in mobile barcode technology and solutions that enable the mobile ecosystem. NeoMedia harnesses the power of the mobile
device in innovative ways with state-of-the-art mobile barcode technology. With this technology, mobile devices with cameras become
barcode scanners, enabling a range of practical applications including mobile marketing and mobile commerce. In addition, we offer
licensing of our extensive intellectual property portfolio. We are focusing our activities primarily in the United States
and Europe, although we are also active in other markets via partners or our self-service products.
Our key focus areas are to: 1) maximize
our patent portfolio through IP licensing monetization and enforcement; 2) provide services to enterprises, brands and retailers
to maximize the reach of our barcode creation and reader solutions; and, 3) partner with key mobile marketing entities to expand
the depth of our offering to provide full end-to-end solutions for our customers, as necessary.
NeoMedia has been active in, and strives
to be an innovator in, the mobile barcode field since the mid-1990s, and during that time has spearheaded the development of a
robust IP portfolio. In September 2011, we announced an agreement with Global IP Law Group to help further monetize our patent
portfolio globally. During 2014, we closed over sixty (60) new IP agreements bringing the total quantity of deals closed to close
to one hundred (100). In addition, dozens of companies have retained NeoMedia for its QR creation and management services, as
a result of our licensing activities.
On the product side of our business, our
barcode solutions include our barcode reader (NeoReader and NeoReader SDK) as well as our barcode creation services (NeoSphere
and QodeScan). Mobile barcodes continue to be an increasingly important activation element for brands and marketers and we continue
to see growth in terms of new customer additions and traffic across our network.
We believe that NeoMedia remains strong
and consistent in its approach to market and that we will continue to differentiate ourselves on the basis of our high quality
service offerings, our responsive customer service and support organization, our customizable and full service solutions and our
robust intellectual property portfolio.
NeoReader has experienced continued growth
particularly in enterprise implementations. NeoReader continues to be pre-installed on Sony Mobile devices and is available
for download from the key “app stores” including Apple App Store™, Google Play™, Nokia Ovi Store, BlackBerry
App World™, Windows® Marketplace, Facebook and Amazon. Our barcode reader has approximately 70+ million installations
world-wide. Our reader is offered to consumers free of charge, leveraging an ad supported model. We anticipate the growth
in consumer utilization will continue as barcodes continue to be utilized for a wide variety of vertical applications. We
also offer NeoReader SDK for enterprise opportunities. Our research suggests that we are one of the few providers in the
global ecosystem to offer Aztec code support, in addition to QR, Data Matrix, Code 39, PDF417 and a variety of 1D symbologies
on iOS, Android and Windows Phone.
In 2013, we launched QodeScan, our low
cost self-service barcode creation product. QodeScan is for those users who don’t have high scan volumes but would
like the insight into analytics that a managed service provides. In addition to QodeScan, we continue to offer our NeoSphere
product intended for enterprises, agencies and other large volume users. We have many Fortune 500 brands using our NeoSphere
product in their global barcode operations. Our QR creation services utilize an indirect methodology for our customers,
which is also embodied in our intellectual property.
Legal costs continue to be high for us.
The costs to maintain our public company status, our IP licensing initiatives, satisfy our investor obligations as well as participate
in an unexpected litigation have catapulted our legal fees to approximately 27% of total operating expenses for us in 2014. Unfortunately,
this has meant that funds earmarked for sales and marketing investment were spent on legal fees.
Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates
This discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations has been prepared by our management based on our consolidated financial statements, which
have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates
and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, our management evaluates our critical accounting policies and estimates, including
those related to revenue recognition, valuation of accounts receivable, intangible assets, derivative liabilities and contingencies.
Estimates are based on historical experience and on various assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily
apparent from other sources. These judgments and estimates affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods.
We consider the following accounting policies
important in understanding our operating results and financial condition:
| |
· |
Intangible Asset
Valuation – Assessing the valuation of intangible assets is subjective in nature and involves significant estimates
and assumptions as well as management’s judgment. We periodically perform impairment tests on our long-lived
assets, including our intangible assets, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may
not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are testing for impairment by first comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash
flows from a particular asset or asset group to the carrying value. If the expected undiscounted cash flows are
greater than the carrying value, no impairment is recognized. If the expected undiscounted cash flows are less than the carrying
value, then an impairment charge is recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the expected discounted cash
flows. The assumptions used in developing expected cash flow estimates are similar to those used in developing other information
used by us for budgeting and other forecasting purposes. In instances where a range of potential future cash flows is possible,
we use a probability-weighted approach to weigh the likelihood of those possible outcomes. As of December 31, 2014, we do
not believe any of our long-lived assets are impaired. |
| |
· |
Goodwill
– Our goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price paid for NeoMedia Europe GmbH over the fair value of the
identifiable net assets and liabilities acquired, based on an independent appraisal of the assets and liabilities acquired.
Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually for impairment, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances
change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Goodwill
is tested for impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset to its fair value, which is estimated through the use
of a discounted cash flows model. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value, an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. We
performed the two step goodwill impairment test at December 31, 2014 and determined there was impairment of our goodwill as
reflected on our balance sheet ($3,417,912). Our assessment conducted as of December 31, 2014 concluded that on a qualitative
and quantitative basis there was impairment of goodwill on our balance sheet. |
| |
· |
Derivative Financial Instruments
– We do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow risks or market-risks that
may affect the fair values of our financial instruments. However, certain financial instruments, such as warrants and
the embedded conversion features of our convertible preferred stock and convertible 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 rate risk, credit risk, and equivalent volatility and conversion/redemption privileges.
The use of different assumptions could have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
For our convertible debentures,
we have elected not to separately account for the embedded conversion feature as a derivative instrument but to account
for the entire hybrid instrument at fair value in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”)
Accounting Standards Codification (“FASB ASC”) 815, Derivatives and Hedging. For our convertible preferred
stock, the underlying instruments are carried at amortized cost and the embedded conversion feature is accounted for separately
at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 815-40-05 and FASB ASC 815-40-15. |
| |
· |
Financial Instruments
and Concentration of Credit Risk – We believe the carrying values of our financial instruments consisting of
cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, derivative financial instruments, other
current liabilities, convertible preferred stock, and convertible debenture financings approximate their fair values due to
their short-term nature, or because they are carried at fair value. |
| |
· |
Revenue Recognition –
We derive revenues from the following primary sources: (1) license fees relating to intellectual property, and
(2) software and service revenues related to mobile marketing barcode management, barcode readers and custom developed
software.
We recognized revenue when: (a)
persuasive evidence of the sales arrangement exists, (b) the arrangement fee is fixed or determinable, (c) service delivery
or performance has occurred, (d) customer acceptance has been received, if contractually required, and (e) collectability
of the arrangement fee is probable. Revenue associated with licensing agreements primarily consists of non-refundable
upfront license fees. Non-refundable upfront license fees received under license agreements, whereby continued performance
or future obligations are considered inconsequential to the relevant license technology, are recognized as revenue upon
delivery of the technology. We typically use signed contractual agreements as persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement.
If at the inception of an arrangement
the fee is not fixed or determinable, we defer revenue until the arrangement fee becomes due and payable. If we determine
collectability is not probable, we defer revenue until we receive payment or collection becomes probable, whichever is
earlier. The determination of whether fees are collectible requires judgment of our management, and the amount and timing
of revenue recognition may change if different assessments are made. |
| |
· |
Contingencies –
From time to time, we are involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business, both as claimant and
defendant. Although it is not possible to determine with certainty the outcome of these matters, we believe the eventual resolution
of any ongoing legal actions is unlikely to have a material impact on our financial position or operating results. If the
resolution of ongoing legal actions is not in our favor, our financial position and operating results could be materially
adversely impacted. |
| |
· |
Income Tax Valuation Allowance
– Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of our management, it is more
likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We recorded a 100% valuation allowance
at December 31, 2014 and 2013. |

Revenues. Revenues for the
years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $3,512,000 and $5,024,000, respectively, a decrease of $1,512,000, or 30%. The decrease
in revenues are primarily attributable to a lower average price on IP agreements and fewer NeoReader SDK deals.
Cost of Revenues. Cost
of revenues was $628,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared with $731,000 in the prior year, a decrease of $103,000
or 14%. Cost of revenues primarily relates to third party professional fees incurred in connection with the sale of our IP licenses.
Cost of revenues typically varies in a manner consistent with changes in our IP agreement revenues.
Sales and Marketing. Sales
and marketing expenses were $101,000 and $286,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, a decrease of
$185,000, or 65%. The decrease in sales and marketing expenses is due to cost containment efforts. We expect sales and marketing
expenses will increase in future periods as we continue to develop and execute on our business goals.
General and Administrative.
General and administrative expenses were $2,321,000 and $2,549,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively,
a decrease of $228,000, or 9%. Costs declined due to continued efforts to contain expenses and identify improved efficiencies
in performing the general and administrative functions of the Company. The expense reductions are related to various items including
lower personnel costs and lower service provider costs, such as accounting and legal related fees.
Research and Development.
Research and development expenses were $390,000 and $717,000 for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, a decrease
of $327,000, or 46%. Research and development expenses decreased as we focused our development efforts in our 2D Core services
and subsequently launched our QodeScan self-service barcode management platform, resulting in a reduced requirement for ongoing
development services.
Goodwill. We performed the
two step goodwill impairment test at December 31, 2014 and determined there was impairment of our goodwill as reflected on our
balance sheet ($3,418,000). Our assessment conducted as of December 31, 2014 concluded that on a qualitative and quantitative
basis there was impairment of goodwill and reflected an impairment loss of $3.418 million.
Other
Operating Income. The $229,000 of other operating income
realized during the year ended December 31, 2013 primarily related to an arbitration proceeding and settlement in our favor. There
was no Other Operating Income in 2014.

Gain (Loss) from Change in Fair
Value of Hybrid Financial Instruments. We carry our debentures at fair value in accordance with the applicable accounting
codification and do not separately account for the embedded conversion feature. The change in the fair value of these liabilities
includes changes in the value of the accrued interest due under these instruments, as well as changes in the fair value of the
common stock underlying the instruments. For year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the liability related to these hybrid instruments
fluctuated resulting in a loss of $4.2 million and a gain of $21.8 million, respectively. See Note 4 within the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for additional detailed discussion.
Gain from Change in Fair Value of
Derivative Liability – Warrants. We account for our outstanding common stock warrants that were issued in connection
with our preferred stock and debentures at fair value. For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the liability related to
these instruments fluctuated, resulting in gains of $618,000 and $3.1 million, respectively. See Note 4 within the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for additional detailed discussion.
Loss from Change in Fair Value of
Derivative Liability – Series C and D Preferred Stock and Debentures. For our Series C and D Preferred Stock, and
certain of our debentures, we account for the embedded conversion feature separately as a derivative financial instrument. We
carry these derivative financial instruments at fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the liability related
to these hybrid instruments fluctuated, resulting in a gain of $289,000 and $1.8 million, respectively. See Note 4 within the
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional detailed discussion.
The changes in the fair values of our
hybrid and derivative financial instruments were primarily the result of fluctuations in the value of our common stock during
the period as well as changes in the terms of the related financial instruments. Because our common stock price has been volatile
and our hybrid and derivative financial instruments include variable discount conversion prices, further fluctuations in the market
price of our common stock could cause the fair value of these instruments to be volatile and increase or decrease significantly
in the future, resulting in future significant gains and losses from the change in the fair value of the instruments.
Gain (Loss) on Extinguishment of
Debt. During the year ended December 31, 2014, we modified and consolidated our outstanding debentures resulting in a
$4.2 million gain on extinguishment.
Interest Income (Expense), Net.
The $16,000 of net interest income reported for the year ended December 31, 2013 primarily relates to interest accrued on payments
received in connection with an arbitration proceeding that settled in our favor during the year.
Gain (loss) on Liquidation of Investment
in Foreign Subsidiary. The $102,000 loss is related to the initiation of the liquidation of our investment in a foreign
subsidiary.
Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)
For the year ended December 31, 2014,
there were no comprehensive gains or losses as compared to other comprehensive gains of $133,000 for 2013. The other comprehensive
gains in 2013 were due to the impact of fluctuations in currency exchange rates associated with our translation of the NeoMedia
Europe GmbH subsidiary financial statements from its local currency, the Euro, to U.S. dollars. We determined during the third
quarter of 2013 that the functional currency of the foreign subsidiary changed to the U.S. dollar and as a result of the change
in functional currency, translation gains and losses associated with the conversion of the NeoMedia Europe GmbH financial statements
are recorded in our results from operations rather than through other comprehensive income (loss) effective July 1, 2013. As indicated
above, the liquidation of an investment in a foreign subsidiary eliminates any comprehensive gain or loss during the year in which
liquidation becomes a material factor.
Income Tax Benefit
During the year ended December 31, 2013,
we determined that a deferred tax liability previously estimated to be realized by NeoMedia Europe GmbH should be reduced to zero
based on certain economic changes of the subsidiary during 2013. The economic changes included, but were not limited to, the termination
of its hardware business and related sales activities that allowed it to generate revenue independently in the local market or
otherwise, and the completion of a repositioning of the subsidiary from a self-contained, revenue generating operation to a cost
center primarily focused on research and development. As a result of the change in estimate, we recorded an income tax benefit
of $706,000 to reduce the deferred tax liability to zero.

We funded our liquidity requirements in
2014 with existing cash resources as well as financing ($242,000) from YA Global to meet short term cash needs related to legal
expenses. As of December 31, 2014, we had $75,000 in cash and cash equivalents.
Going Concern
We have historically incurred operating
losses, and we may continue to generate negative cash flows as we implement our business plan for 2015. There can be no assurance
that our continuing efforts to execute our business plan will be successful and that we will be able to continue as a going concern.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with US GAAP, which contemplates our continuation
as a going concern. Our net loss for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $2.4 million as compared to net income of $28.5 million
for the year ended December 31, 2013. The operating results for the year ended December 31, 2014 included $3.3 million of net
losses related to financing instruments including a net gain of $4.2 million from a gain on extinguishment of debt and the operating
results for the year ended December 31, 2013 included $26.7 million of net gains related to financing instruments.
Net cash used in operations during the
year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $0.4 million for each period. As of December 31, 2014, we have an accumulated deficit
of $239.3 million. We also have a working capital deficit of $39.2 million, including $37.4 million in current liabilities for
our derivative and debenture financing instruments which are due August 1, 2015 and for which we do not have the necessary capital
to re-pay.
We currently do not have sufficient cash
or commitments for financing to sustain our operations for the next twelve months if we are unable to generate sufficient cash
flows from operations. Our plan continues to be to develop new client and customer relationships and substantially increase our
revenue derived from our products/services and IP licensing. If our revenues do not reach the level anticipated in our plan, we
may require additional financing in order to execute our operating plan. If additional financing is required, we cannot predict
whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity, debt, or another form, and we may not be able to obtain the necessary
additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. In the event that financing sources are not available, or
that we are unsuccessful in increasing our revenues and profits, we may be unable to implement our current plans for expansion,
repay our debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The convertible debentures and preferred
stock used to finance the Company, which may be converted into common stock at the sole option of the holders, have a highly dilutive
impact when they are converted, greatly increasing the number of shares of common stock outstanding. During 2014, there were 3,834
million shares of common stock issued for these conversions. We cannot predict if or when each holder may or may not elect to
convert into shares of common stock.
Significant
Liquidity Events
Financing Provided By YA Global.
In 2014, we received funding from YA Global totaling $242,000.
Since July 2012, we have not received
any new convertible debenture based financing from YA Global. However, as described below, the outstanding convertible debentures
were consolidated into six secured convertible debentures.
At December 31, 2014, financial instruments
arising from our financing transactions with YA Global, included shares of our Series C preferred stock issued in February 2006,
Series D preferred stock issued in January 2010, a series of six consolidated secured convertible debentures (the “Consolidated
Debentures”) issued July 1, 2013 and various warrants to purchase shares of our common stock. All of our assets are pledged
to secure our obligations under the debt securities. At various times, YA Global has assigned or distributed portions of its holdings
of these securities to other holders, including persons who are officers of YA Global and its related entities, as well as to
other holders who are investors in YA Global’s funds. The rights of the assignees of the YA Global holdings are bound by
the terms of the financial instruments held by YA Global, and amendments to the terms of the financial instruments held by YA
Global could also impact the terms of the financial securities held by the assignees.
We had originally entered into financing
transactions with YA Global, which included a series of twenty-seven secured convertible debentures issued between August 2006
and July 2012. Effective July 1, 2013, the terms of the debentures held by YA Global were modified to consolidate the principal
and interest amounts outstanding under all of the outstanding secured convertible debentures previously issued by us to YA Global,
such that, upon the issuance of the Consolidated Debentures and cancellation of the prior debentures, the amount of outstanding
debentures issued to YA Global decreased from twenty-seven to six debentures. The maturity dates of these secured convertible
debentures were also extended from August 1, 2014 to August 1, 2015.
The underlying agreements for each of
the Consolidated Debentures are very similar in form. The Consolidated Debentures are convertible into our common stock, at the
option of the holder, at the lower of a fixed conversion price per share or a percentage of the lowest volume-weighted average
price (“VWAP”) for a specified number of days prior to the conversion (the “look-back period”). The conversion
is limited such that the holder cannot exceed 9.99% ownership of the outstanding common stock, unless the holder waives their
right to such limitation. All of the debentures are secured according to the terms of a Security Pledge Agreement dated August
23, 2006, which was entered into in connection with the first convertible debenture issued to YA Global and which provides YA
Global with a security interest in substantially all of our assets. The debentures are also secured by a Patent Security Agreement
dated July 29, 2008. On August 13, 2010, our wholly owned subsidiary, NeoMedia Europe GmbH, became a guarantor of all outstanding
financing transactions between us and YA Global, through pledges of their intellectual property and other movable assets. As security
for our obligations to YA Global, all of our Pledged Property, Patent Collateral and other collateral is affirmed through the
several successive Ratification Agreements executed in connection with each of the 2010, 2011 and 2012 financings. The 2013 modification
and consolidation of the outstanding secured convertible debentures as well as the execution of an Amended and Restated Patent
Security Agreement in October 2013 reaffirmed the Pledged Property, Patent Collateral and other collateral pledged as security
for our obligations to YA Global.
YA Global holds warrants to purchase shares
of our common stock that were issued in connection with the convertible debentures and the Series C and Series D preferred stock.
The warrants are exercisable at a fixed exercise price which, from time to time, has been reduced due to anti-dilution provisions
when we have entered into subsequent financing arrangements with a lower price. The exercise prices may be reset again in the
future if we subsequently issue stock or enter into a financing arrangement with a lower price. In addition, upon each adjustment
in the exercise price, the number of warrant shares issuable is adjusted to the number of shares determined by multiplying the
warrant exercise price in effect prior to the adjustment by the number of warrant shares issuable prior to the adjustment divided
by the warrant exercise price resulting from the adjustment.
See Note 4 within the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements for additional detailed discussion on our financings.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED
PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2014, and the related consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ deficit, and cash flows for the year then ended.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance
with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our
audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate
in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the company’s internal control
over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. as of December
31, 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for year ended December 31, 2014, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements, the Company restated their December 31, 2013 financial statements as a result of the correction of errors related
to the application of certain assumptions used in the Company’s fair value measurement of the derivative financial instruments
and debentures payable. Our opinion is not modified with respect to that matter.
The accompanying consolidated financial
statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 2 to the financial
statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses from operations, has significant working capital and shareholder deficits
and may have ongoing requirements for additional capital investment. These factors raise substantial doubt about its ability to
continue as a going concern. Management’s plans in regard to these matters are also described in Note 2. The consolidated
financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An

financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
As discussed in Note 2 to the Financial
Statements, the entity’s 2013 fair value accounting of derivative financial instruments and debentures payable previously
reported as $284,576,000 should have been $42,001,000. This discovery was made subsequent to the issuance of the financial statements.
The financial statements have been restated to reflect this correction.

NeoMedia Technologies, Inc.
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 – General
Business – NeoMedia,
a Delaware corporation, was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in Boulder, Colorado. We have positioned ourselves to lead the
development of 2D mobile barcode technology and services solutions that enable the mobile barcode ecosystem world-wide. NeoMedia
harnesses the power of the mobile phone in innovative ways with state-of-the-art mobile barcode technology solutions. With this
technology, mobile devices with cameras become barcode scanners, and this enables a range of practical applications including mobile
marketing and mobile commerce. In addition, we offer licensing of our extensive intellectual property portfolio.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant
Accounting Policies
The accompanying audited consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“US GAAP”).
All normal adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Basis of Presentation –
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. and our wholly-owned subsidiary (collectively
herein referred to as “NeoMedia,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our,”
and similar terms). We operate as one reportable segment. All intercompany accounts, transactions and profits have been eliminated
in consolidation.
Use of Estimates –
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Changes in facts and circumstances
may result in revised estimates, which are recorded in the period in which they become known.
Going Concern – We
have historically incurred operating losses, and we may continue to generate negative cash flows as we implement our business plan
for 2015. There can be no assurance that our continuing efforts to execute our business plan will be successful and that we will
be able to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with
US GAAP, which contemplates our continuation as a going concern. Our net loss for theyear ended December 31, 2014 was $2.4 million
as compared to net income of $28.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The operating results for the year ended December
31, 2014 included $3.3 million of net losses related to financing instruments and net gain of $4.2 million, from a gain on extinguishment
of debt and the operating results for the year ended December 31, 2013 included $26.7 million of net gains related to financing
instruments.
Net cash used in operations during the
years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 was $0.4 million in each period. As of December 31, 2014, we have an accumulated deficit
of $239.4 million. We also have a working capital deficit of $39.2 million, including $37.4 million in current liabilities for
our derivative and debenture financing instruments which are due August 1, 2015 and for which we do not have the necessary capital
to re-pay.
We currently do not have sufficient cash
or commitments for financing to sustain our operations for the next twelve months if we are unable to generate sufficient cash
flows from operations. Our plan continues to be to develop new client and customer relationships and substantially increase our
revenue derived from our products/services and IP licensing. If our revenues do not reach the level anticipated in our plan, we
may require additional financing in order to execute our operating plan. If additional financing is required, we cannot predict
whether this additional financing will be in the form of equity, debt, or another form, and we may not be able to obtain the necessary
additional capital on a timely basis, on acceptable terms, or at all. In the event that financing sources are not available, or
that we are unsuccessful in increasing our revenues and profits, we may be unable to implement our current plans for expansion,
repay our debt obligations or respond to competitive pressures, any of which would have a material adverse effect on our business,
prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
The convertible debentures and preferred
stock used to finance the Company, which may be converted into common stock at the sole option of the holders, have a highly dilutive
impact when they are converted, greatly increasing the number of shares of common stock outstanding. During 2014, there were 3,834
million shares of common stock issued for these conversions. We cannot predict if or when each holder may or may not elect to convert
into shares of common stock.
Restatement to 2013 Reporting – As
noted above and disclosed initially in our Periodic Report on Form 8-K on July 29, 2014, during the year ended December 31, 2013,
for fair value accounting of the derivative financial instruments and debentures payable, we reassessed the valuation techniques
used to estimate the liability fair values. Based on the assessment, including discussions with the third-party valuation firm
assisting us with the calculation, we determined that the valuation technique should be modified to consider the potentially dilutive
impact on the stock price resulting from the issuance of additional shares of common stock upon the conversion of the instruments
as well as the resulting value in comparison to our market capitalization.
As filed on our From 10-K/A on September
19, 2014, we restated our December 31, 2013 Balance Sheet as it pertains to the Fair Value of our Warrants, Preferred Series C
& D and Convertible Debentures to amounts as stated below from how they were reported as of December 31, 2013 in our 10-K (in

Cash and Cash Equivalents –
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in financial institutions, which are highly liquid investment instruments with original
maturities of less than 90 days.
Revenue
Recognition – We derive revenues from the following primary sources: (1) license fees relating to intellectual property,
and (2) software and service revenues related to mobile marketing barcode services and development, barcode readers and custom
developed software.
We
recognized revenue when: (a) persuasive evidence of the sales arrangement exists, (b) the arrangement fee is fixed or determinable,
(c) service delivery or performance has occurred, (d) customer acceptance has been received, if contractually required, and (e)
collectability of the arrangement fee is probable. Revenue associated with licensing agreements primarily consists of non-refundable
upfront license fees. Non-refundable upfront license fees received under license agreements, whereby continued performance or future
obligations are considered inconsequential to the relevant license technology, are recognized as revenue upon delivery of the technology.
We typically use signed contractual agreements as persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement.
If
at the inception of an arrangement the fee is not fixed or determinable, we defer revenue until the arrangement fee becomes due
and payable. If we determine collectability is not probable, we defer revenue until we receive payment or collection becomes probable,
whichever is earlier. The determination of whether fees are collectible requires judgment of our management, and the amount and
timing of revenue recognition may change if different assessments are made.
Deferred
revenues and customer prepayments on our consolidated balance sheets primarily represents amounts invoiced or cash payments received
in advance of our performance related to the underlying agreement.
Change in Accounting Policy
– In early 2013, we expanded our business strategy related to the monetization of intellectual property rights and have been
pursuing brand licenses with major corporations. In connection with the strategy expansion, we reevaluated our revenue recognition
accounting principles during the second quarter of 2013 and determined that the completed performance methodology for recognizing
intellectual properly revenue was preferable to the historically used proportional performance methodology. The completed performance
methodology is further described above within the revenue recognition discussion. As part of this change in accounting principle,
we conducted a quantitative analysis to determine the impact the accounting policy change would have had on our 2012 balance sheet
and statement of operations. The impact to our balance sheet as of December 31, 2012 would have been a decrease in each of the
deferred revenues and customer prepayments, total current liabilities, and accumulated deficit of $208,000. The impact to our 2012
statement of operations would have been an increase in revenues and decrease in the net loss available to common shareholders of
$208,000, and there would have been no impact on basic and diluted net loss per common share. Based on the analysis, the impact
was deemed immaterial to the overall financial statements.
Multiple Element Transactions
– From time to time, we enter into transactions involving multiple elements, such as customer agreements involving multiple
IP licenses. We account for multiple element transactions by first obtaining evidence of the estimated selling price of each element
using vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”), third-party evidence (“TPE”), or management’s
best estimate of selling price if neither VSOE nor TPE of selling price exists. Based on the determined selling price of each element
of the transaction, the value of the single agreement is allocated to each deliverable based on each element's proportional value
and accounted for as a separate unit of accounting. Multiple element transactions require the exercise of judgment in determining
the estimated selling price of the different elements. The judgments could impact the amount of revenues and expenses recognized
over the term of the contract, as well as the period in which they are recognized.
Basic and Diluted (Loss) Gain Per
Common Share – Basic net (loss) gain per common share is computed by dividing net loss/gain available to common shareholders
by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. During the year ended December 31, 2014,
we reported a net loss available to common shareholders and excluded all outstanding stock options, warrants and convertible instruments
from the calculation of diluted net loss per common share because inclusion of these securities would have been anti-dilutive.
The following is a reconciliation of the
numerator and denominator of the basic and diluted net loss or gain per share calculations for each period (in thousands, except
share and per share data):

Foreign
Currency – Historically, the functional currency of NeoMedia Europe GmbH was the Euro, its local currency, and we
recorded translation gains and losses associated with the conversion of the subsidiary financial statements to U.S. dollars in
accumulated other comprehensive loss as a component of shareholders’ deficit. During the third quarter of 2013, we determined
that changes in economic facts and circumstances indicated that the functional currency of NeoMedia Europe GmbH had changed from
the Euro to the U.S. dollar. The changes included, among other things, the termination of the hardware business and related
sales activities that would allow the subsidiary to generate revenue independently in the local market or otherwise, and the completion
of a repositioning of the subsidiary from a self-contained, revenue generating operation to a cost center focused primarily on
research and development. As a result of the change in functional currency, translation gains and losses associated with
the conversion of the NeoMedia Europe GmbH financial statements will be prospectively recorded in our results from operations effective
July 1, 2013.
Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities
Acquired – Fair value is the price that would be received from the sale of
an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e. an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction
between market participants. In determining fair value, the accounting standards established a three-level hierarchy
that distinguishes between (i) market data obtained or developed from independent sources (i.e., observable data inputs) and (ii)
a reporting entity’s own data and assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability (i.e.,
unobservable data inputs). Financial assets and financial liabilities measured and reported at fair value are classified
in one of the following categories, in order of priority of observability and objectivity of pricing inputs:
|
|
· Level 1 – Fair value based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| |
· Level 2 – Fair value based on significant directly observable data (other than Level 1 quoted prices) or significant indirectly observable data through corroboration with observable market data. Inputs would normally be (i) quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, (ii) quoted prices in inactive markets for identical or similar assets or liabilities or (iii) information derived from or corroborated by observable market data. |
| |
|
| |
· Level 3 – Fair value based on prices or valuation techniques that require significant unobservable data inputs. Inputs would normally be a reporting entity’s own data and judgments about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. |
The fair value measurement level for an
asset or liability is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation
techniques should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
Recurring Fair Value Measurements
- The carrying value of the Company’s financial assets and financial liabilities is their cost, which may differ from
fair value. The carrying value of cash held as demand deposits, money market and certificates of deposit, marketable
investments, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximated their fair value. Marketable
investments are valued at Level 1 due to readily available market quotes. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt,
including the current portion approximated its carrying value. The Company accounts for its derivative financial instruments,
including warrants and the embedded conversion features of our convertible preferred stock and convertible debentures at fair value
and these are considered to be recurring fair value measurements.
The fair value measurements for the Company's liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis

Derivative Financial Instruments
– We do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash flow risks or market risks that may affect
the fair values of our financial instruments. However, certain financial instruments, such as warrants and the embedded conversion
features of our convertible preferred stock and convertible 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 rate risk, credit risk, and equivalent volatility
and conversion/redemption privileges. The use of different assumptions could have a material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts.
For our convertible debentures, we have
elected not to separately account for the embedded conversion feature as a derivative instrument but to account for the entire
hybrid instrument at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. For our convertible preferred
stock, the underlying instruments are carried at amortized cost and the embedded conversion feature is accounted for separately
at fair value in accordance with FASB ASC 815-40-05 and FASB ASC 815-40-15.
Financial Instruments and Concentration
of Credit Risk – We believe the carrying values of our financial instruments consisting of cash and cash equivalents,
accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, derivative financial instruments, other current liabilities, convertible
preferred stock, and convertible debenture financings approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature, or because
they are carried at fair value.
Our cash balances in the United States
periodically exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses in such accounts. The cash balances maintained
by our wholly owned subsidiary, NeoMedia Europe GmbH, are also maintained in financial institutions that provide deposit guarantees
and are governed by local public law. Our policies limit the concentration of accounts receivable credit exposure by requiring
the majority of customers to prepay their renewal licenses prior to initiating services.
Accounts Receivable –
We report accounts receivable at net realizable value. Our terms of sale provide the basis for when accounts become delinquent
or past due. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts, based on historical collection
experience and a review of the current status of accounts receivable. We do not require collateral and to the extent credit
is granted to our customers, all open accounts receivable beyond 90 days are evaluated for recovery.
Goodwill – Our goodwill represents the excess
of the purchase price paid for NeoMedia Europe GmbH over the fair value of the identifiable net assets and liabilities acquired,
based on an independent appraisal of the assets and liabilities acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested annually for
impairment, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair
value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. Goodwill is tested for impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the asset
to its fair value, which is estimated through the use of a discounted cash flows model. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value,
an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. We performed the two step goodwill impairment test at December 31, 2014 and
determined there was impairment of our goodwill as reflected on our balance sheet ($3,418,000). Our assessment conducted as of
December 31, 2014 concluded that on a qualitative and quantitative basis there is impairment of goodwill on our balance sheet.
Intangible Assets –
Intangible assets consist of patents, customer contracts, copyrighted material, acquired software products, and brand names. Intangible
assets acquired as part of a business combination are recognized apart from goodwill if the intangible asset arises from contractual
or other legal rights or the asset is capable of being separated from the acquired enterprise. Intangible assets are reviewed for
impairment by comparing the carrying amount of the intangible asset to its fair value. If the carrying amount exceeds fair value,
an impairment loss is recognized for the difference. Intangible assets are amortized, using the straight-line method, over the
estimated period of benefit as noted below:
| Capitalized patents | |
| 5 - 17 years | |
| Acquired software products | |
| 7 years | |
Evaluation of Long-Lived Assets –
We periodically perform impairment tests on each of our long-lived assets, including capitalized patent costs, customer contracts,
copyrighted materials, brand names, and capitalized and purchased software costs, whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate
that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are testing for impairment by first comparing the estimated
future undiscounted cash flows from a particular asset or asset group to the carrying value. If the expected undiscounted cash
flows are greater than the carrying value, no impairment is recognized. If the expected undiscounted cash flows are less than the
carrying value, then an impairment charge is recorded for the difference between the carrying value and the expected discounted
cash flows. The assumptions used in developing expected cash flow estimates are similar to those used in developing other information
used by us for budgeting and other forecasting purposes. In instances where a range of potential future cash flows is possible,
we use a probability-weighted approach to weigh the likelihood of those possible outcomes.
As of December 31, 2014, we do not believe
any of our long-lived assets are impaired.
Property and Equipment –
Property and equipment, including software, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line
basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as noted below:
| Furniture and fixtures |
|
|
3 - 7 years |
|
| Equipment |
|
|
2 - 5 years |
|
Research and Development
– Costs associated with the planning and design phase of software development, including coding and testing activities, and
related overhead, necessary to establish technological feasibility of our internally-developed software products, are classified
as research and development and are expensed as incurred.
Stock-Based Compensation –
We no longer offer stock based compensation as part of our compensation packages for employees, contractors and/or Directors. On
October 6, 2014, the Board of Directors elected to terminate all existing Stock Option plans due to the significant cost to maintain
and report on the plans does not achieve the goals intended. Thus, the 2002, 2005 Stock Option Plans and the 2003 Stock Incentive
Plan were effectively terminated with no accounting requirements since no options or shares were issued. The 2003 Stock Option
Plan with 397,613 options issued was effectively terminated with no accounting requirements as the term of the options have expired
or the holders of the options no longer meet the requirements of holding the options due to termination of employment etc. The
2011 Stock Plan was effectively terminated subject to the holder’s rights to the options remaining open provided they meet
the requirements of the options. Per discussion with eligible holders, each holder (current board members or officers and one previous
officer of the corporation) have waived their rights to exercise of the options.
Income Taxes – Deferred
tax liabilities and assets reflect the difference between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using
enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the difference is expected to reverse. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation
allowance when it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. We have recorded
full valuation allowance as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Going Concern- On August
27, 2014, The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-2015, Presentation of Financial
Statements-Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40): Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going
Concern. The Update was intended to define management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about
an organizations ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The main provisions of the
Update state that in connection with preparing financial statements for each annual and interim reporting period, an entity’s
management should evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about
the entity’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued.
Management’s evaluation should be based on relevant conditions and events that are known and reasonably knowable at the date
that the financial statements are issued. Substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern exists
when relevant conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, indicate that it is probable that the entity will be unable to
meet its obligations as they become due within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. When management
identifies conditions or events that raise substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern, management
should consider whether its plans that are intended to mitigate those relevant conditions or events will alleviate the substantial
doubt. This Update is effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016. The Company will adopt this guidance
for the year ended December 31, 2016. We do not believe the adoption of this standard will result in material change disclosures
on our ability to continue as a going concern.
Revenue Recognition - On
May 28, 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts
with Customers. The standard will eliminate the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current U.S.
GAAP and replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. This standard has the potential to affect
every entity’s day-to-day accounting and, possibly, the way business is executed through contracts with customers. We have
not yet evaluated the impact the adoption this standard will have in our results of operations when we adopt it in January of 2017.
Note 3 – Capital Stock
Common Stock – Holders
of common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on each matter submitted to a vote of shareholders. Holders
of our common stock do not have a cumulative voting right. Upon a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up event, holders of common
stock would be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and payment of accrued dividends
and liquidation preferences on the preferred stock, if any. Shares of common stock that have been repurchased are held as treasury
shares and used for general corporate purposes including, but not limited to, satisfying obligations under our employee benefit
plans. Treasury stock is recorded at cost.
Preferred Stock – We
are authorized to issue 25 million shares of preferred stock with a par value $0.01 per share. Preferred stock may be issued in
the future in connection with acquisitions, financings, or other matters, as our Board of Directors deems appropriate. The issuance
of preferred stock could have the effect of delaying, deferring, or preventing a change in control of our company without further
action by our shareholders, and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance
of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may also adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock,
including the loss of voting control to others.
Series A Preferred Stock –
In December 1999, 200,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01 per share were authorized for issuance.
The Series A Preferred Stock has the following rights:
| |
· |
The right to receive mandatory cash dividends equal to the greater of $0.001 per share or 100 times the amount of all dividends (cash or non-cash, other than dividends of shares of common stock) paid to holders of the common stock, which dividend is payable 30 days after the conclusion of each calendar quarter and immediately following the declaration of a dividend on common stock; |
| |
· |
One hundred votes per share of Series A Preferred on each matter submitted to a vote of our shareholders; |
| |
· |
The right to elect two directors at any meeting at which directors are to be elected, and to fill any vacancy on our Board of Directors previously filled by a director appointed by the Series A Preferred holders; |
| |
· |
The right to receive an amount, in preference to the holders of common stock, equal to the amount per share payable to holders of common stock, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends, and following payment of 1/100th of the liquidation preference to the holders of each share of common stock, an additional amount per share equal to 100 times the per share amount paid to the holders of common stock; |
| |
· |
The right to exchange each share of Series A Preferred for 100 times the consideration received per share of common stock in connection with any merger, consolidation, combination or other transaction in which shares of common stock are exchanged for or converted into cash, securities or other property; and |
| |
· |
The right to be redeemed in accordance with our shareholder rights plan. |
If accrued mandatory dividends associated
with Series A Preferred stock are unpaid, we may not declare or pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem, repurchase or reacquire,
shares of any class or series of junior or parity stock.
The Series A Preferred Stock was created
in connection with our shareholders rights plan and as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there were no issued or outstanding shares
of Series A Preferred Stock.

At the option of the holder, shares are subject to automatic conversion as determined in each agreement relating to the purchase of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock; |
| |
· |
Each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is entitled to receive a liquidation preference equal to the original purchase price of such share in the event of liquidation, dissolution, or winding up; |

| |
· |
Shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to one vote per share of such stock, and vote together with holders of common stock. |

Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred
Stock – In January 2002, 100,000 shares of Series B 12% Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock with a par value of

| |
· |
Upon merger or consolidation, or the sale, lease or other conveyance of all or substantially all of our assets, shares of Series B Preferred are automatically convertible into the number of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) to which the common stock into which it is convertible would have been entitled; and |
| |
· |
Shares of Series B Preferred are entitled to one vote per share and vote with common stock, except where the proposed action would adversely affect the Series B Preferred or where the non-waivable provisions of applicable law mandate that the Series B Preferred vote separately, in which case Series B Preferred vote separately as a class, with one vote per share. |
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there
were no shares of Series B Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock issued or outstanding.
Series C Convertible Preferred Stock

| |
· |

| |
· |
Series C preferred shares have voting rights on an as-converted basis with the common stock. |
As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, there
were 4,332 shares and 4,816 shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding, respectively. The holders of
our outstanding shares are limited by the certificate of designation and by the contractual provisions of the related Securities
Purchase Agreements under which the Series C Convertible Preferred Stock was issued and other related transaction documents from
beneficial control of more than 9.99% of our voting securities. Therefore, unless the holder waives this limitation upon 61 days’
notice to us, the holders may not exercise all the voting rights otherwise described in the certificate of designation of these
securities (see Note 4 – Financing).
Series D Convertible Preferred Stock
– In January 2010, 25,000 shares of Series D Convertible Preferred Stock with a par value of $0.01 per share was

Shareholder Rights Plan –
On December 10, 1999, our Board of Directors adopted a shareholder rights plan and declared a non-taxable dividend that provides
shareholders with the right to acquire one-one hundredth of a share of our Series A Preferred Stock for each outstanding share
of our common stock to shareholders of record on December 20, 1999 and each share of common stock issued thereafter until a pre-defined
hostile takeover date. As further defined in detail within the shareholder rights plan, the rights generally will be exercisable
only if (1) an Acquiring Person or Adverse Person acquires beneficial ownership equal to or greater than 25% or 15%, respectively,
or (2) commences a tender offer upon consummation of which the Acquiring Person or Adverse Person would have beneficial ownership
equal to or greater than 25% or 15%, respectively. The shareholder rights plan was designed to enable all shareholders not engaged
in a hostile takeover attempt to receive fair and equal treatment in any proposed takeover and to guard against partial or two-tiered
tender offers, open market accumulations, and other hostile tactics to gain control of us. This shareholder rights plan may have
the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, discouraging, preventing, or rendering more costly an acquisition or a change
in control. The Shareholder Rights Plan was due to expire December 10, 2009; however, it was extended and remains in effect.
In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation
authorizes our Board of Directors to designate and issue our preferred stock, in one or more series, the terms of which may be
determined at the time of issuance by our Board of Directors, without further action by shareholders, and may include voting rights,
including the right to vote as a series on particular matters, preferences as to dividends and liquidation, conversion, redemption
rights, and sinking fund provisions.
Note 4 – Financing
At December 31, 2014, financial instruments
arising from our financing transactions with YA Global Investments, L.P. (“YA Global”), an accredited investor, included
shares of our Series C preferred stock issued in February 2006, Series D preferred stock issued in January 2010, a series of six
consolidated secured convertible debentures (the “Consolidated Debentures”) issued July 1, 2013 and various warrants
to purchase shares of our common stock. All of our assets are pledged to secure our obligations under the debt securities. At various
times, YA Global has assigned or distributed portions of its holdings of these securities to other holders, including persons who
are officers of YA Global and its related entities, as well as to other holders who are investors in YA Global’s funds.
Secured
Debentures – We had originally entered into financing transactions with YA Global, which included a series of twenty-seven
secured convertible debentures issued between August 2006 and July 2012. Effective July 1, 2013, the terms of the debentures held
by YA Global were modified to consolidate the principal and interest amounts outstanding under all of the outstanding secured convertible
debentures previously issued by us to YA Global, such that, upon the issuance of the Consolidated Debentures and cancellation of
the prior debentures, the amount of outstanding debentures issued to YA Global decreased from twenty-seven to six debentures. The
maturity dates of these secured convertible debentures were also extended from August 1, 2014 to August 1, 2015.
The
underlying agreements for each of the Consolidated Debentures are very similar in form. The Consolidated Debentures are convertible
into our common stock, at the option of the holder, at the lower of a fixed conversion price per share or a percentage of the lowest
volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) for a specified number of days prior to the conversion (the “look-back
period”). The conversion is limited such that the holder cannot exceed 9.99% ownership of the outstanding common stock, unless
the holder waives their right to such limitation. All of the debentures are secured according to the terms of a Security Pledge
Agreement dated August 23, 2006, which was entered into in connection with the first convertible debenture issued to YA Global
and which provides YA Global with a security interest in substantially all of our assets. The debentures are also secured by a
Patent Security Agreement dated July 29, 2008. On August 13, 2010, our wholly owned subsidiary, NeoMedia Europe GmbH, became a
guarantor of all outstanding financing transactions between us and YA Global, through pledges of their intellectual property and
other movable assets. As security for our obligations to YA Global, all of our Pledged Property, Patent Collateral and other collateral
is affirmed through the several successive Ratification Agreements executed in connection with each of the 2010, 2011 and 2012
financings. The 2013 modification and consolidation of the outstanding secured convertible debentures as well as the execution
of an Amended and Restated Patent Security Agreement in 2013 reaffirmed the Pledged Property, Patent Collateral and other collateral
pledged as security for our obligations to YA Global.
We
evaluated the financing transactions in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and determined that the conversion
features of the Series C and Series D preferred stock and the Consolidated Debentures were not afforded the exemption for conventional
convertible instruments due to their variable conversion rates. The contracts have no explicit limit on the number of shares issuable,
so they did not meet the conditions set forth in current accounting standards for equity classification. Accordingly, either the
embedded derivative instruments, including the conversion option, must be bifurcated and accounted for as derivative instrument
liabilities or, as permitted by ASC 815-15-25-4, Recognition of Embedded Derivatives, the instruments may be carried in
their entirety at fair value.
At
inception, we elected to bifurcate the embedded derivatives related to the Series C and Series D preferred stock, while electing
the fair value option for the Consolidated Debentures. ASC 825, Financial Instruments, allows us to elect the fair value
option for recording financial instruments when they are initially recognized or if there is an event that requires re-measurement
of the instruments at fair value, such as a significant modification of the debt.
On
February 4, 2013, we entered into a Debenture Extension Agreement with YA Global to extend the maturity dates of the secured convertible
debentures to August 1, 2014.
Because the effect of the extension did not exceed a significance threshold relative to cash flows prescribed by ASC 470-50,
Debt Modifications and Extinguishments, extinguishment accounting was
not applicable. On July 1, 2013, in addition to consolidating the
secured debentures into six Consolidated Debentures, the maturity date was extended to August 1, 2015. Four of the Consolidated
Debentures are non-interest bearing while the remaining two Consolidated Debentures accrue interest at 9.5% as outlined in further
detail below. Debentures assigned to other investors by YA Global were also modified effective July 1, 2013 to extend the maturity
date to August 1, 2015. We evaluated the impact of the modification on the accounting for the Consolidated Debentures in accordance
with ASC 470-50-40-6 through 12 to determine whether extinguishment accounting was appropriate. Because the effect of the extension
did not exceed a significance threshold relative to cash flows prescribed by ASC 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments,
extinguishment accounting was not applicable.
The following table summarizes the significant
terms of each of the debentures for which the entire hybrid instrument is recorded at fair value as of December 31, 2014:

We bifurcate the compound embedded derivatives
related to the Series C and Series D preferred stock and carry these financial instruments as liabilities in the accompanying balance
sheet. Election to carry the instruments at fair value in their entirety is not available since their terms have not been
modified. Significant components of the compound embedded derivative include (i) the embedded conversion feature, (ii) down-round
anti-dilution protection features and (iii) default, non-delivery and buy-in puts, all of which were combined into one compound
instrument that is carried at fair value as a derivative liability. Changes in the fair value of the compound derivative liability
are recorded within income each period.
Conversions and Repayments
– Our preferred stock and convertible debentures are convertible into shares of our common stock. Upon conversion of any
of the convertible financial instruments in which the compound embedded derivative is bifurcated, the carrying amount of the debt,
including any unamortized premium or discount, and the related derivative instrument liability are credited to the capital accounts
upon conversion to reflect the stock issued and no gain or loss is recognized. For instruments that are recorded in their entirety
at the fair value of the hybrid instrument, the fair value of the hybrid instrument converted is credited to the capital accounts
upon conversion to reflect the stock issued and no gain or loss is recognized. Beginning in April 2013, the trading market price
of our common stock (and the conversion price) was less than its par value. We are limited to issuing shares of common stock at
no less than the par value, and all shares of our common stock issued in those conversions were issued at par value. However, the
methodology used to estimate the number of shares of convertible debentures and preferred stock converted during this time are
based upon the value received for the shares issued, with the difference between that value and the par value recorded as
a deemed dividend.
The following table provides a summary
of the preferred stock conversions that have occurred since inception and the number of common shares issued upon conversion.

Warrants – YA Global
holds warrants to purchase shares of our common stock that were issued in connection with the convertible debentures and the Series
C and Series D preferred stock. The warrants are exercisable at a fixed exercise price which, from time to time, has been reduced
due to anti-dilution provisions when we have entered into subsequent financing arrangements with a lower price. The exercise prices
may be reset again in the future if we subsequently issue stock or enter into a financing arrangement with a lower price. In addition,
upon each adjustment in the exercise price, the number of warrant shares issuable is adjusted to the number of shares determined
by multiplying the warrant exercise price in effect prior to the adjustment by the number of warrant shares issuable prior to the
adjustment divided by the warrant exercise price resulting from the adjustment.
The warrants issued to YA Global do not
meet all of the established criteria for equity classification in ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s
Own Equity, and accordingly, are recorded as derivative liabilities at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the warrants
are charged or credited to income each period.
Effective February 1, 2013, 1.4 billion
of the 1.9 billion warrants held by YA Global were cancelled and the remaining 500 million had their exercise price reduced to
$0.0001 per share. These changes resulted in a decrease in fair value of the warrants of approximately $1.6 million during the
first quarter of 2013 as reflected in the Gain from change in fair value of derivative liabilities - warrants.
Fair value disclosures for Series
C and D Bifurcated Embedded Derivative Instruments – For financings in which the embedded derivative instruments
are bifurcated and recorded separately, the compound embedded derivative instruments are valued using a Monte Carlo Simulation
methodology because that model embodies certain relevant assumptions (including, but not limited to, interest rate risk, credit
risk, and conversion/redemption privileges) that are necessary to value these complex derivatives.
The conversion price in each of the convertible
debentures is subject to adjustment for down-round, anti-dilution protection. Accordingly, if we sell common stock or common share
indexed financial instruments below the stated or variable conversion price of the debenture, the conversion price adjusts to that
lower amount.
The assumptions included in the calculations
are highly subjective and subject to interpretation. Assumptions used as of December, 2014 included exercise estimates/behaviors
and the following other significant estimates: (i) Preferred Stock: remaining term of 0.59 years, equivalent volatility of 676%,
stated dividend of 8%, equivalent credit-risk adjusted rate of 13.0% and conversion price of $0.000097. Equivalent amounts reflect
the net results of multiple modeling simulations that the Monte Carlo Simulation methodology applies to underlying assumptions.
Due to the variability of the conversion
prices, fluctuations in the trading market price of our common stock may result in significant variations to the calculated conversion
price. For each debenture, we analyze the ratio of the conversion price (as calculated based on the percentage of VWAP for the
appropriate look-back period) to the trading market price for a period of time equal to the term of the debenture to determine
the average ratio for the term of the note. Each quarter, the ratio in effect on the date of the valuation is compared with the
average ratio over the term of the debenture to determine if the calculated conversion price is representative of past trends or
if it is considered unrepresentative due to a large fluctuation in the common stock price over a short period of time. If the calculated
conversion price results in a ratio that deviates significantly from the average ratio over the term of the agreement, the average
ratio of the conversion price to the trading market price is then multiplied by the current trading market price to determine the
variable conversion price for use in the fair value calculations. This variable conversion price is then compared with the fixed
conversion price and, as required by the terms of the debentures, the lower of the two amounts is used as the conversion price
in the Monte Carlo Simulation model used for valuation purposes. On December 31, 2014, the fixed conversion price for each of the
debentures was equal to or higher than the calculated variable conversion price. Accordingly, the variable conversion price was
used in the Monte Carlo Simulation model. This analysis is performed each quarter to determine if the calculated conversion price
is reasonable for purposes of determining the fair value of the embedded conversion features (for instruments recorded under ASC
815-15-25-1) or the fair value of the hybrid instrument (for instruments recorded under ASC 815-15-25-4).
The following table reflects the face value
of the instruments, their amortized carrying value and the fair value of the separately-recognized compound embedded derivative,
as well the number of common shares into which the instruments are convertible as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The terms of the embedded conversion features
in the convertible instruments presented above provide for variable conversion rates that are indexed to our quoted common stock
price. As a result, the number of indexed shares is subject to continuous fluctuation. For presentation purposes, the number of
shares of common stock into which the embedded conversion feature of the Series C and Series D preferred stock was convertible
as of December 31, 2014 and 2013 was calculated as face value plus assumed dividends (if declared), divided by the lesser of the
fixed rate or the calculated variable conversion price using the 125 day look-back period.
Changes in the fair value of derivative
instrument liabilities related to the bifurcated embedded derivative features of convertible instruments not carried at fair value
are reported as Loss from Change in Fair Value of Derivative Liability – Series C and Series D Preferred Stock and Debentures
in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Hybrid Financial Instruments Carried
at Fair Value – At inception, the March 2007, August 2007, April 2008, May 2008 and April 2012 convertible debentures
were recorded in their entirety at fair value as hybrid instruments in accordance with ASC 815-15-25-4 with subsequent changes
in fair value charged or credited to income each period. As of May 25, 2012, we elected the fair value option for all other convertible
debentures held by YA Global upon a re-measurement date that was triggered by significant modifications of the financial instruments.
The convertible debentures continued to be recorded in their entirety at fair value upon their consolidation into six Consolidated
Debentures effective July 1, 2013.
Because these debentures are carried in
their entirety at fair value, the value of the embedded conversion feature is embodied in those fair values. We estimate the fair
value of the hybrid instrument as the present value of the cash flows of the instrument, using a risk-adjusted interest rate, enhanced
by the value of the conversion option, valued using a Monte Carlo model. This method was considered by our management to be the
most appropriate method of encompassing the credit risk and exercise behavior that a market participant would consider when valuing
the hybrid financial instrument. Inputs used to value the hybrid instruments as of December 31, 2014 included: (i) present value
of future cash flows for the debentures using an effective market interest rate of 13.0%, (ii) remaining term of 0.59 years, (iii)
equivalent volatility of 676% and anti-dilution adjusted conversion prices ranging from $0.000090 - $0.000095.
The following table reflects the face value
of the financial instruments, the fair value of the hybrid financial instrument and the number of common shares into which the
instruments are convertible as of December 31, 2014 and 2013.

The warrants are valued using a binomial
lattice option valuation methodology because that model embodies all of the significant relevant assumptions that address the features
underlying these instruments. Significant assumptions used in this model as of December 31, 2014 included an expected life equal
to the remaining term of the warrants, an expected dividend yield of zero, estimated volatility ranging from 475% to 1080%, and
risk-free rates of return ranging from 0.08% to 0.91%. 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 warrants and volatility is based upon our expected
common stock price volatility over the remaining term of the warrants. As a result of the repricing on February 1, 2013, the exercise
price of the warrants is currently $0.0001. The anti-dilution provisions are still applicable so in the future the fixed
exercise price of the warrants may be reset to equal to the lowest price of any subsequently issued common share indexed instruments
with a conversion price below the current exercise price of the warrant.
Changes in the fair value of the warrants
are reported as Gain from change in fair value of derivative liability – warrants in the accompanying consolidated statement
of operations. The changes in the fair value of the warrants were as follows:

Reconciliation of changes in fair
value – Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level
of input that is significant to their fair value measurement. Our derivative financial instruments that are measured at fair value
on a recurring basis are all measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported
by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following represents a reconciliation
of the changes in fair value of financial instruments measured at fair value using Level 3 inputs and changes in the fair value
of hybrid instruments carried at fair value during the year ended December 31, 2014 (in thousands):

Estimating fair values of derivative financial
instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration
of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, valuation techniques are sensitive
to changes in the trading market price of our common stock, which has a high estimated historical volatility. Because derivative
financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income will reflect the volatility in these estimate
and assumption changes.
Note Payable – In
2014, we received financing of $242,000 from YA Global to meet short term cash needs related to legal expenses. The financing was
through secured debentures in the form of a line of credit with varying maturity dates in 2016. The interest rate is 12% payable
annually on the anniversary of the individual debenture.
Note 5 – Goodwill and Other Intangible
Assets
At December 31, 2013, we had goodwill of
$3.4 million, representing the excess of the purchase price paid for NeoMedia Europe GmbH over the fair value of the identifiable
net assets and liabilities acquired, based on an independent appraisal of the assets and liabilities acquired. We performed the
two step goodwill impairment test at December 31, 2014 and determined there was impairment of our goodwill as reflected on our
balance sheet ($3,418,000). Our assessment conducted as of December 31, 2014 concluded that on a qualitative and quantitative basis
there is impairment of goodwill on our balance sheet.

Due to the uncertainty of the utilization
and recoverability of the loss carry-forwards and other deferred tax assets, we have provided a valuation allowance for the deferred
tax assets, as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realizable.
The following is a reconciliation of the statutory federal income
tax rate applied to pre-tax accounting net loss compared to the income taxes in the consolidated statement of operations:

During the year ended December 31, 2013,
we determined that a deferred tax liability previously estimated to be realized by NeoMedia Europe GmbH should be reduced to zero
based on certain economic changes of the subsidiary during 2013. The economic changes included, but were not limited to, the termination
of its hardware business and related sales activities that allowed it to generate revenue independently in the local market or
otherwise, and the completion of a repositioning of the subsidiary from a self-contained, revenue generating operation to a cost
center primarily focused on research and development. As a result of the change in estimate, we recorded an income tax benefit
of $706,000 to reduce the deferred tax liability to zero.
As of December 31, 2014, we had net operating
loss carry forwards for federal tax purposes totaling approximately $65.4 million, which may be used to offset future taxable income
and which, if unused, expire between 2015 and 2034, and a capital loss carry-forward of $3.4 million. As a result of certain of
our equity activities, we anticipate that the annual usage of our pre-1998 net operating loss carry forwards may be further restricted
pursuant to the provisions of Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code.
In addition to the above, our subsidiary
NeoMedia Europe GmbH, had foreign operations and is not included in our consolidated income tax balances above. NeoMedia Europe
GmbH did not have income tax expense during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.
NeoMedia Europe GmbH has net operating
loss carry forwards that are estimated to be $11.5 million and $11.4 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Due
to the uncertainty of the utilization and recoverability of the loss carry forwards, we have reserved for the deferred tax assets
through a valuation allowance, as it is more likely than not that the deferred tax assets will not be realizable.
We have not taken any uncertain tax positions
on any of our open income tax returns filed through the period ended December 31, 2013. Our methods of accounting are based on
established income tax principles in the Internal Revenue Code and are properly calculated and reflected within our income tax
returns. In addition, we have filed income tax returns in all applicable jurisdictions in which we had material nexus warranting
an income tax return filing.
We re-assess the validity of our conclusions
regarding uncertain tax positions on a quarterly basis to determine if facts or circumstances have arisen that might cause us to
change our judgment regarding the likelihood of a tax position’s sustainability under audit. We have determined that there
were no uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. Due to the carry forward of NOL’s, Federal
and state income tax returns are subject to audit for varying periods beginning in 1992.
Note 8 – Commitments and Contingencies
We are party to various commitments and
contingencies, including:
| |
· |
Operating leases for office facilities, which include minimum rents and reimbursed operating expenses as well as options to renew for additional periods; |
| |
|
|
| |
· |
Employment agreement with future payment obligations; |
| |
· |
Long-term debt obligations include principal for convertible debentures and related estimated interest over the life of the debentures. Any future settlement of convertible debt would impact our cash payments. |
The following table sets forth the future
minimum payments due under the above commitments as of December 31, 2014:

The above table includes future obligations associated with
a new lease agreement we entered into for our corporate headquarters in Boulder, Colorado on February 19, 2014. The agreement provides
for a five year lease of 2,303 square feet expiring on March 31, 2019 with estimated average rent and monthly rent payments over
the term of $5,689. We intend to sublease certain portions of the lease that are unused by us. Additionally, we entered into an
amended lease arrangement for NeoMedia Europe GmbH’s office lease in February 2014 to reduce the rented area to approximately
125 square meters with the same lease expiration date and reduced monthly rent of approximately $1,400. The lease on GmbH expires
March 2015 and there are no future obligations, as such the GmbH lease is not reflected in the above table.
Legal Proceedings –
From time to time, we are involved in various legal actions arising in the normal course of business, both as claimant and defendant.
Although it is not possible to determine with certainty the outcome of these matters, we believe the eventual resolution of any
ongoing legal actions is unlikely to have a material impact on our financial position or operating results. If the resolution of
ongoing legal actions is not in our favor, our financial position and operating results could be materially adversely impacted.
Note 9 – Stock-Based Compensation
We no longer offer stock based compensation as part of our compensation
packages for employees, contractors and/or Directors. On October 6, 2014, the Board of Directors elected to terminate all existing
Stock Option plans due to the significant cost to maintain and report on the plans does not achieve the goals intended. Thus, the
2002, 2005 Stock Option Plans and the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan were effectively terminated with no accounting requirements since
no options or shares were issued. The 2003 Stock Option Plan with 397,613 options issued was effectively terminated with no accounting
requirements as the term of the options have expired or the holders of the options no longer meet the requirements of holding the
options due to termination of employment etc. The 2011 Stock Plan was effectively terminated subject to the holder’s rights
to the options remaining open provided they meet the requirements of the options. Per discussion with eligible holders, each holder
(current board members or officers and one previous officer of the corporation) have waived their rights to exercise of the options.

accounted for 14% of our revenue. No other customers accounted for more than 10% of revenue for the years ended December 31, 2014
and 2013.
Note 11 – Merger, Reverse
Stock Split and Extinguishment of Debt
On
May 11, 2014, the Company completed an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Qode Services Corporation
(“Qode”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Qode was merged into the
Company and ceased to exist upon completion of the merger. The Company continued as the surviving corporation. Under the
terms of the Merger Agreement, the Company’s charter was amended to provide for an increase in the amount of common stock
authorized shares, and each share of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the merger continued
to remain outstanding and remain unchanged, except that (i) the par value changed from $0.001 per share to no par value per share,
and (ii) each fifteen shares of common stock issued and outstanding were combined and converted into 1 share of common stock (the
“Reverse-Split”). The amount of authorized shares of common stock was also increased from 5 billion to 7.5 billion
shares. Prior period amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the Reverse-Split in order to be comparable and conform
to the current period presentation.
In connection with the completion of the
merger, the holder of the secured convertible debentures agreed to enter into amendments to decrease the aggregate face amount
of debt by $5.0 million. The forgiveness of debt on the secured convertible debentures exceeded a significance threshold relative
to cash flows prescribed by ASC Topic 470-50, Debt Modifications and Extinguishments. Accordingly, the modifications
of the amounts due under these arrangements were accounted for as extinguishments, whereby the existing debentures were considered
to be retired and new debentures issued. The fair value of the forgiven balance of $4.247 million was determined as of May 11,
2014 and recorded as a gain on extinguishment of debt in the consolidated statements of operations.
Note 12 – Subsequent Events
During the period January 1, 2015 to
March 3, 2015, holders of NeoMedia Series C Preferred shares converted 15 shares into 154,639,175 common shares. In addition
during the same period holders of NeoMedia secured debentures converted a portion of the principal and accrued interest into
303,744,472 common shares
ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements
with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
On July 1, 2014, the Audit Committee (the
"Audit Committee") of the Board of Directors of NeoMedia Technologies, Inc. (the "Company") approved the dismissal
of StarkSchenkein, LLP ("Stark") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm. During the period May
1, 2013 and through July 1, 2014, the date of Stark's dismissal, (i) there were no disagreements) between the Company and Stark
on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure.
On July 1, 2014, the Audit Committee approved
the appointment of Eide Bailly LLP as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm to perform independent audit
services beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2014.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures - We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as such
term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”))
that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods required under the SEC’s rules and forms and that the information is gathered
and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (Principal Executive Officer) and Chief Financial Officer
(Principal Financial Officer), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange
Act, the Company carried out an evaluation, with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s
Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO” who is also the Company’s principal
financial and accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined under
Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation,
and taking the matters described below into account, the Company’s CEO and CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls
and procedures over financial reporting were not effective during reporting period ended December 31, 2014, as discussed below.
Eide Bailly LLP, our registered independent
public accounting firm, was not required to and has not issued a report concerning the effectiveness of our internal control over
financial reporting as of December 31, 2014.
Management’s Annual Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting - Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting for the Company in accordance with as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange
Act. Our internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability
of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles. Our internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:
| - | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect
the transactions and dispositions of our assets, |
| - | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation
of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are
being made in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors, and |
| - | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition,
use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements. |
A material weakness is a control deficiency,
or combination of control deficiencies, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the annual
or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal
control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness
to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management, including the Company’s
principal executive and principal financial officer, assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial
reporting as of December 31, 2014. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee
of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (1992 version).
Management’s assessment of the effectiveness
of the small business issuer’s internal control over financial reporting as of the year ended December 31, 2014 the
Company did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting because of the following control deficiencies that
constitute material weakness:
| - | On July 25, 2014, management concluded, after consultation with the Audit Committee and external
auditors that the Company had not properly assessed the underlying assumptions in its fair value accounting for its derivatives
and financial instruments. This error had a material effect on our previously issued consolidated financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2013 and the quarters ended March 31, 2013, June 30, 2013 and September 30, 2013, which required us to
restate the financial statements for such periods. In addition, we had to restate financial statements in the interim period ended
March 31, 2014. |
| - | While preforming the internal audit of financial transactions and reporting, it was noted that
there was a gap in our disclosure controls to ensure that there we were preparing financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles and in accordance with SEC guidelines; some journal entries did not contain independent reviews;
a journal entry regarding a complex application of revenue recognition was noted to have been recorded incorrectly; there were
certain required disclosures missing in our financial statements; and because of our small size, we have limited ability to segregate
duties to maintain an effective process of internal control. |
Because of the material weakness identified
above, a reasonable possibility exists that a material misstatement in our consolidated financial statements will not be prevented
or detected on a timely basis. However, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer believes that the
financial statements included in this annual report on Form 10-K present, in all material respects, our financial position, results
of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Plan for Remediation of Material Weaknesses
- The remediation effort outlined below is intended to address the identified material weaknesses in internal control over
financial reporting.
In the first interim period of fiscal year
2015 and concurrent with the filing of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, we strengthened and increased our controls over financial
reporting through the engagement of an outside review team with significant experience in reviewing and recording of complex debt
and equity transactions, revenue recognition concepts inherently complex in our transactions, and in writing disclosures contained
in financial statements filed in our interim and annual reports. We plan to do another formal assessment of our internal controls
during the next couple filings of our interim reports on Form 10-Q; thereby allowing for internal corrective action before our
year ending December 31, 2015.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K does not
include an attestation report of our independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting
due to an exemption provided by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or the Dodd-Frank Act, enacted into
law in July 2010. The Dodd-Frank Act provides smaller public companies and debt-only issuers with a permanent exemption from the
requirement to obtain an external audit on the effectiveness of internal financial reporting controls provided in Section 404(b)
of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. We are a smaller reporting company and are eligible for this exemption under the Dodd-Frank Act.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial
Reporting - NeoMedia has historically used contractors for our SEC work and will continue to do so. We will continue to monitor
the effectiveness of our contractors and our internal control over financial reporting in the areas affected by the facts described
above and employ any additional tools and resources deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements are fairly stated
in all material respects.
