Item 8.01.     Other Events.

 

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc. (“HMNY”) on August 15, 2017, HMNY and MoviePass Inc. (“MoviePass”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “MoviePass SPA”), pursuant to which HMNY agreed to purchase a majority stake in MoviePass (the “MoviePass Transaction”).

 

HMNY is providing this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) to disclose that MoviePass has surpassed 300,000 paying subscribers as of August 31, 2017.

 

In addition, MoviePass projects that it will acquire at least 2.5 million additional paying subscribers during the next twelve months, and expects to retain at least 2.1 million of those additional paying subscribers at the end of that period. This projection assumes that MoviePass will receive at least $10 million in additional funding as contemplated by the Helios Note (as defined in the MoviePass SPA) to be issued by HMNY to MoviePass upon the closing of the MoviePass Transaction.

 

Important Additional Information

 

This communication does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities or a solicitation of any vote or approval. This communication relates to the MoviePass Transaction, which will become the subject of a proxy statement to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by HMNY, and may be deemed to be solicitation material in respect of the MoviePass Transaction. This document is not a substitute for the proxy statement that HMNY will file with the SEC or any other documents that HMNY may file with the SEC or transmit to stockholders in connection with the MoviePass Transaction. Before making any voting decision, investors and security holders are urged to read the proxy statement and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the MoviePass Transaction as they become available because they will contain important information about the proposed transaction and related matters. Investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the proxy statement and all other relevant documents filed or that will be filed with the SEC by HMNY through the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov.

 

In addition, investors and security holders will be able to obtain free copies of the proxy statement, once it is filed, from HMNY by accessing HMNY’s website at www.hmny.com or upon written request to: Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc., Attn: Secretary, Empire State Building, 350 Fifth Avenue, Suite 7520, New York, New York 10118, (212) 979-8228.

 

Participants in the Solicitation

 

HMNY, MoviePass and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from HMNY’s stockholders in connection with the MoviePass Transaction. Information regarding HMNY’S directors and executive officers is contained in the annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, which was filed with the SEC on April 14, 2017. You can obtain a free copy of this document at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or by accessing HMNY’S website at www.hmny.com. Additional information regarding the interests of those persons and other persons who may be deemed participants in the MoviePass Transaction may be obtained by reading the proxy statement regarding the MoviePass Transaction, when it becomes available. You may obtain free copies of this document as described in the preceding paragraph.

 

Cautionary Statement Regarding MoviePass Subscriber Acquisitions

 

Because the MoviePass $9.95 per month subscription pricing model is new, HMNY is providing the information in this Current Report to inform investors about the resulting increase in the number of MoviePass subscribers following the announcement of the new MoviePass subscription pricing model on August 15, 2017 and the number of additional subscribers that MoviePass projects acquiring during the next twelve months. There can be no assurance that such rate of increase or projected number of subscribers will continue or be achieved. Moreover, the increase in the number of subscribers provides no assurance that the MoviePass business model will lead to profitability.
