Each new smartphone represents an opportunity for us to deliver our innovative mobile VoIP, Messaging over IP and Advertising over IP solution in whatever mobile app brand is attractive to the end user throughout the globe.

By partnering with national carriers and delivering our solution as a licensed service to regional mobile operators, we leverage the power of their brand and join them to fight back against already lost revenues, or potential revenue loss, to network bandwidth-intensive Over The Top (“OTT”) VoIP apps; such as Skype in the USA or Line in Japan and so on.

In the past mobile operators relied upon blocking VoIP on their networks but they have realized that this is no longer a viable option. They must embrace innovations in VoIP software, especially on the smartphone, from businesses like ours. Not only can we offer a multi-media, multi-faceted software solution to smartphones, but we are the only company that offers a package that aids the operators in the rollout, expansion, maintenance and upgrade of their mobile network in metro and rural areas to cater for smartphones.

From the beginning of the first smartphones in 2008, our software was specifically targeted to be a disruptive technology, which was and has been explicitly designed, and patented, to work on congested wireless Internet connections; the absolute fundamental basis of mobile phones in 2016 and beyond.

As more and more smartphones come online, each one places a significantly higher load on the existing cellular infrastructure; as smartphone users now use smartphone to check for emails, surf the Internet, check the weather, read the news, etc. while in the past, all a mobile phone did was calling and Short Messaging (SMS). In order for carriers to keep up with the explosive growth of smartphones and their increased network consumption they are in need of any possible tool to assist them in managing their network and maintaining relevance on the users’ device.

We offer operators a mobile VoIP call that has ten (10) times less bandwidth than a standard telephone call over GSM or legacy mobile VoIP solutions such as Session Initiation Protocol (“SIP”). This gives operators a higher quality call on busy and legacy networks such as 2G, 3G and congested metro-based 4G using less bandwidth; meaning more bang for their “spectrum buck”. We will not replace traditional calls nor prevent the delivery of newer call types such as Voice over LTE (“VoLTE”) etc., but we give operators yet another tool in their arsenal to deliver the best quality voice, for the best value, for their diversified customer bases.

Our Technology

Our Technology

We have a very detailed knowledge of these wireless data network issues and have invented a totally new solution to successfully deliver a high quality voice call over a wireless Internet connection. Our solution is designed specifically to address such issues as call latency (i.e. delay) and network jitter (i.e. lost data) in a way that achieves a much higher likelihood of a voice packet (i.e. tiny piece of recorded voice) arriving in time and not being lost or delayed. Our awareness of these problems led us to develop a completely new algorithm for sending and receiving (and ordering) voice packets so as to reduce the likelihood of packet loss due to congestion, which we call SmartPacket™; and to the end user this just means near HD audio at a fraction of the cellular consumption.

SmartPacket™ Technology

The core of the Horizon solution is our truly innovative, and patented, SmartPacket™ technology. This enables VoIP from only 2 kilobytes/second (kbps) compared to around 8kbps and upwards from other VoIP platforms available today.  This industry-leading solution has been developed in-house and is fully compatible with digital telecommunications standards.  This technology is capable of interconnecting any phone system over IP - on mobile, fixed and satellite networks.  Our SmartPacket™ technology is not based on legacy SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) or RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol).  Rather, the Horizon signaling protocol is much simpler and benchmark testing has shown that it consumes significantly less bandwidth for the same audio quality score.  Our SmartPacket™ technology is the world’s most bandwidth efficient IP communication platform designed for mobile communications. The technology optimizes voice flow, delivery and playback and delivers excellent call quality, reduced delays and drops.   As a further illustration, the technology is considerably more efficient in the way it handles silence.  Traditional VoIP calls send the same amount of data in both directions, regardless of whether or not someone is speaking.  SmartPacket™ technology is designed to detect silence and send tiny “indications of silence”, rather than the silence itself. This massively reduces the amount of data transmitted, lowers the load on the cellular infrastructure which, in turn, means that more data can get through.  This results in higher audio quality and a better user experience.

Our Benchmark Testing: Horizon vs G.729

G.729 is a type of audio compression that is typically used throughout the world for mobile VoIP. Our testing has shown that Horizon is up to 10 times more efficient, depending on which one of our voice compression settings is selected by the user.

Proprietary

The Horizon Platform has been developed entirely in-house, patented, and is fully compatible with digital telecommunications standards. It is capable of interconnecting any phone system over IP – on mobile, fixed and satellite networks.

The Horizon Platform was initially developed for the burgeoning smartphone market and the challenging mobile VoIP over satellite market by Abbey Technology to make the best use of the limited wireless bandwidth available and to minimize the amount of data consumed.

We further developed the Horizon Platform for the broader telecommunications market on Apple’s iOS, Google’s Android and a Windows PC client focusing on the mobile Internet sector. This sector also benefits from our optimized mobile VoIP as it allows voice calls over new and legacy cellular telecom data networks. With the explosive growth in smartphone sales and increased usage of mobile data services, mobile operators face the challenge of dealing with increasingly congested networks, more dropped calls and rising levels of churn. Since the wireless spectrum is a finite resource, it is not always possible, or can be cost prohibitive, to increase network capacity. For these reasons, we believe that the demand for solutions to optimize the use of IP bandwidth will inevitably increase.

12

Our Strategy

We have developed a mobile application template called “Horizon Call,” that enables highly bandwidth-efficient VoIP calls over a smartphone using a 2G/EDGE, 3G, 4G/LTE, WiFi or Satellite connection. Our Horizon Call application is currently available for the iPhone and for Android handsets and we use it to showcase all of our functions, features, our call quality and the level of software innovation that we can brand for our potential clients.

Unlike the majority of mobile VoIP applications, Horizon Call creates a white-label business-to-business solution for mobile operators. Telecommunications operators are able to license from us, brand with us and deploy with us a completely new “white-labeled” solution so that they can optimize their highly pressurized mobile internet bandwidth and deliver innovation that in turn brings them new smartphone users. The operators decide how to integrate our application within their portfolio, how to offer it commercially and can customize it according to their own branding.  Our solution helps them to manage increased traffic volumes while combating the competitive threat to their voice telephony revenues from other mobile VoIP applications by giving its mobile data customers a more efficient mobile VoIP solution that adds value to their mobile data network.

We are positioning ourselves as an operator-enabler by licensing our technology to mobile operators in a manner that can be fully customized to the needs of their subscribers. As shown below, operators are able to offer our platform to deliver branded smartphone applications to their existing customers to reduce lost Voice/Text revenue and minimize customer churn. 

13

 

 

By offering Horizon Call to their existing customer base, our customers can offer innovative data-based voice and data services that are different from the existing Over The Top (“OTT”) data applications running on their networks. OTT refers to voice and messaging services that are delivered by a third party to an end user’s smartphone, leaving the mobile network provider responsible only for transporting internet data packets and not the value-added content. The Horizon Call voice services allow mobile operators’ customers to make VoIP calls under mobile operators’ call plans, thereby allowing mobile operators to capture value-added content, including voice calls, text messaging, voice messaging, group messaging, multimedia messaging, and advertising, that would have otherwise gone to the providers of other OTT services.

Horizon Call runs on both smartphone and tablet devices and, as networks become more congested, software services such as Horizon Call become ever more relevant. We believe that although more network capacity will eventually come on stream with 4G/LTE, it, like all other highways, will quickly become congested and this is why we believe that Horizon Call is ideally placed to add value to mobile data networks.

Incumbent mobile operators are suffering a reduction in revenue per user due to the OTT software services on mobile devices. These OTT applications, such as Skype and Line, can negatively impact mobile operators’ traditional revenue streams of voice and SMS (short message service). As shown below, the Horizon Platform positions the Company to enable mobile operators to operate their own OTT solution branded in their image allowing use on all mobile data networks.

14

 

In addition to delivering new data services to their existing customers, mobile operators can offer their brand of Horizon Call on anyother operators’ handsets. Because the Horizon Call application can be installed on the smartphone from the Internet, the potential customer base for the operators’ data application surpasses the customer base that they can reach through traditional mobile phone SIM card distribution. We believe that this service innovation, coupled with the fact that the Horizon Call application can also use existing mobile operator pre-paid credit redemption and distribution services, presents a very compelling service against OTT services.

We believe that emerging markets represent a key opportunity for Horizon Call because these are significant markets with high population densities, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones.  More than one-quarter of the world’s population will use smartphones in 2015, and by 2018, over 2.56 billion or one-third of all people worldwide will be smartphone users.  Asia-Pacific will account for over half of all smartphone users in 2015, estimated at 951.5 M users. Globally, China is the largest smartphone market with an estimated 574.2 M handsets. These factors will put increased pressure on mobile operators to manage their network availability.

In this context, where necessary, we have created our own brand in China, called Aishuo, formed a number of strategic ventures with local partners in regions of various emerging markets to seize upon this opportunity.

In 2013 through our subsidiary One Horizon Hong Kong Ltd, we invested $1.5 million for a 75% equity stake in, Horizon Network Technology Co., Ltd (“HNT”), while, ZTE Corporation, held a 25% equity stake in HNT. In 2015 ZTE Corporation allowed OHGI to take 100% ownership of HNT by forfeiting their minority shareholding.

15

Aishuo in China

To address the explosive growth in China, One Horizon is launching an own-brand smartphone VoIP service, called Aishuo. To date, we have over 15 million downloads of the Aishuo smartphone App and have successfully installed servers throughout China. Our Aishuo app interconnects to the WeChat Wallet, AliPay and UnionPay credit card and micro-payments services in China to facilitate payments.  We have also uploaded the App to the biggest smartphone App stores in China including Baidu, Tencent and Qihoo.  The smart phone app will be able to provide various optimized internet value added services to its mobile subscribers including but not limited to voice and social media services such as text, picture, video and geo-location messaging. These value added services are made possible through the creation of a "Virtual SIM" and One Horizon's proprietary communication software, an industry first. Combined with One Horizon's location aware mobile advertising services, the Aishuo branded smart phone app is expected to drive multiple revenue streams from the supply of its value-added services. The service has attracted over 15 million downloads in its first year of operation and expects to achieve industry average revenues per user (ARPU) for similar social media apps for its subscribers.

Marketing

Our marketing objective is to become a broadly adopted solution in the regions of the world with large concentrations of smartphone users and high network congestion. We aim at becoming the preferred solution for carriers who wish to deploy branded VoIP solutions that enable them to minimize revenue erosion, reduce churn, increase the effective capacity of their network infrastructure and improve user experience. We employ an integrated multi-channel approach to marketing, whereby we evaluate and focus our efforts on selling through telecommunications companies to enable them to provide the Horizon Platform to their customers. We routinely evaluate our marketing efforts and try to reallocate budgets to identify more effective media mixes.

We conduct marketing research to gain consumer insights into brand, product, and service performance, and utilize those findings to improve our messaging and media plans. Market research is also leveraged in the areas of testing, retention marketing, and product marketing to ensure that we bring compelling products and services to market.

Sales

Direct Sales. Our primary sales channel for the products and services of Horizon Platform is the sale of Horizon Platforms to Tier 1 and Tier 2 telecommunications companies to enable them to provide the product and services to their customers. We continue our efforts to develop new customers globally but particularly in Asia and Latin America.

Strategic Ventures.In addition to our direct sales channel, we also offer increased sales through our strategic venture channel. In this context, as mentioned above, we are working towards forming a number of strategic ventures in areas where regulatory issues require local representation.

Target Markets. The markets for our primary and joint venture channels will have high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growth in the adoption of smartphones.

Competition

The Company’s direct competitors for its technology primarily consist of systems integrators that combine various elements of SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) dialers and media gateways. Other dial-back solutions exist but they are not IP-based. Because SIP dialers and media gateways currently are unable to provide a low bandwidth solution, they do not currently compete with the Company’s technology in those markets in which their high bandwidth needs are unsupported by the existing cellular networks. They do, however, compete in those markets where the cellular networks are accessible by those SIP dialers and gateways.

The Company licenses the Horizon Platform to mobile operators, who in turn may offer the application to their end-user subscribers. The Company’s principal competitors for the mobile operators’ end-users are Skype, Viber, WeChat, and WhatsApp. Having a mobile operator’s subscriber opt to use the operator’s (branded) Horizon Call service instead of existing OTT services means that the mobile operator will gain market share of some of the OTT voice and messaging traffic. We are currently unaware of any other companies that seek to license VoIP technology directly to mobile operators.

16

One of the Company’s key competitive advantages is that it is not a threat to mobile operators. Rather, the Company’s Horizon Platform is a tool that can be used by mobile operators to compete against the OTT provider’s applications that are running on their networks. Through the Horizon Platform, mobile operators are able to compete directly with OTT services that, by their design, divert voice and messaging services away from mobile operators. The solution is delivered completely and is easy to install and operate. This means that a mobile operator has a turnkey mobile voice and messaging solution to deploy to its customer (i.e., the end-user).

The turnkey Horizon software platform and the Horizon SmartPacket™ technology give us a competitive advantage by managing credit, routing, rating, security, performance, billing and monitoring. Horizon SmartPacket™ is the world’s lowest bandwidth voice compression and transmission protocol and is 100% developed and owned by the Company. Though other software companies can offer part of this solution space, we believe none offers it in such a complete and integrated fashion as we do. We believe it will take a substantial number of years to copy/replicate the Horizon Platform in its entirety, by which time we believe the Horizon Platform will have improved and further distanced itself from potential competition.

Intellectual Property

Our strategy with respect to our intellectual property is to patent our core software concepts wherever possible. The Company’s current software patent has been approved in the United States and is pending in other jurisdictions around the world. Our patent strategy serves to protects the Horizon Platform and the central processing service of the Horizon Platform.

The Company endeavors to protect its internally developed systems and technologies. All of our software is developed “in-house,” and then licensed to our customers. We take steps, including by contracts, to ensure that any changes, modifications or additions to the Horizon Platform requested by our customers remain the sole intellectual property of the Company.

Research and Development and Software Products

The Company has spent approximately $1.1 million on capitalizable research and development in the fiscal year 2015.

During 2015, we expanded our Irish software development team, our QA team and our graphics team with the addition of 5 new employees in our office at the Nexus Innovation Center on the campus of the University of Limerick.

Throughout 2015 we continued with our focus on innovation and our research and development teams (“R&D”) brought us a brand new call handoff solution. Applying this new call handoff solution, a call that is in progress on Wi-Fi will automatically transfer to 2G/3G/4G when Wi-Fi signal becomes too weak. Vice versa when a call is in progress over 2G/3G/4G and a known Wi-Fi signal is detected, the call will automatically transfer to a stronger signal. Whilst others have partially solved this issue of radio-handoff, the Horizon solution works for all handset types on Android and on Apple's iOS and we believe that this will open up other mobile VoIP opportunities.

R&D also delivered the only service in the world with a combo multi-installation App joined to a shared/peer landline or mobile. Using these features, especially for business, an App will ring on multiple devices at the same time not only on a smartphone and tablet but also ring a land line, mobile, and remote office etc. In this case, an end user can choose the most convenient way to answer a call. Whilst our competitors have partially solved this issue of simultaneous ringing with just the App, we have solved this for all phone types and we believe that this will open up other mobile VoIP opportunities for the Company.

Our R&D also focused on further enhancing our VoIP technology to detect and tune optimized voice quality on Xiaomi phones. Xiaomi is China's biggest selling smartphone vendor (source: IDC http://www.idc.com/getdoc.jsp?containerId=prHK25437515). We plan to continue our R&D focus on optimizing our application and service on Xiaomi smartphones given the expansion of the Xiaomi brand in China, India and South East Asia in order to keep the Aishuo App as the top performing retail VoIP service across the other top four brands in China's smartphone marketplace including Samsung, Lenovo, Huawei and Coolpad.

Furthermore, the R&D team delivered a brand new mobile VoIP app Voicemail concept and Ringback Tune concept. The new Voicemail solution means that when subscribers rent telephone numbers on Horizon, they will automatically have the facility of a personalized Voicemail service for them when they are busy or out of Internet coverage. Voicemails can be left by the calling party, optimized for efficient delivery and delivered to the App as audio messages. The user does not have to go through the cumbersome steps of dialing into a messaging service, our App delivers the voicemail directly to the App, complete with caller ID of the caller. The new Ringback Tune solution allows the App user to record, usually fun, audio track to be played to the person calling them while their phone is ringing. Ringback is sold on a monthly basis by mobile operators throughout Asia and our new method for doing this in our technology means that further service revenues can be derived by our licensee by offering new and fun features within our mobile Apps.

Further and deeper integration with the Google Wallet and Apple In-App Purchase solutions was also carried out by our R&D teams. Both of these payment service solutions were released in the second quarter of 2015 and provided more payment options to our B2B and B2C subscribers. And we continue to research the ever changing realm of on-line payment services for our customers by getting our In App Payment service for iTunes deployed for use in mainland China for Aishuo and our new KeyIdeas and LinRen licensees.

R&D also delivered an in app Sticker solution this year. Stickers are small cartoonlike figures used in smartphone text-chat conversations to show emotions. They are hugely popular in Asia and generate significant revenues for those companies that have such services in place. We intend to license the core Sticker service to our operators and also to launch a complete Sticker purchase service in the Aishuo app in China.

R&D delivered a brand new concept in mobile advertising called a Gift Center. Our technology can now deliver small gifts of free calls etc. to our loyal users when they invite others to join, use our app on a regular basis etc. Bringing a feeling of loyalty to a smartphone app is key to retaining the customer and reducing churn.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

We have a history of operating losses and our auditors have indicated that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we reported losses from operations of approximately $4.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and negative cash flow from operations of $2.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, we had an aggregate accumulated deficit of approximately $70.1 million. Such losses have required us to seek additional funding through the issuance of debt or equity securities.

As a result of these net losses and cash flow deficits and other factors, our independent auditors issued an audit opinion with respect to our consolidated financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2021 that indicated that there is a substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

Our consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. These adjustments would likely include substantial impairment of the carrying amount of our assets and potential contingent liabilities that may arise if we are unable to fulfill various operational commitments. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon generating sufficient cash flow from operations and obtaining additional capital and financing, including any funds to be raised in the future. If our ability to generate cash flow from operations is delayed or reduced and we are unable to raise additional funding from other sources, we may be unable to continue in business even if other fundraising is successful. For further discussion about our ability to continue as a going concern and our plan for future liquidity, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.”

We may require additional funding for our growth plans and such funding may result in a dilution of your investment.

We have estimated our funding requirements necessary to implement our growth plans, including the revitalization of the WCAR. If the costs of implementing such plans should exceed these estimates significantly or if we come across opportunities to grow through expansion which cannot be predicted at this time, and our funds generated from our operations prove insufficient for such purposes, we may need to raise additional funds to meet these funding requirements.

These additional funds may be raised by issuing equity or debt securities or by borrowing from banks or other resources. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain any additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. If we fail to obtain additional financing on terms that are acceptable to us, we will not be able to implement such plans fully if at all. Such financing even if obtained, may be accompanied by conditions that limit our ability to pay dividends or require us to seek lenders’ consent for payment of dividends, or restrict our freedom to operate our business by requiring lender’s consent for certain corporate actions.


Further, if we raise additional funds by way of a rights offering or through the issuance of new shares, any shareholders who are unable or unwilling to participate in such an additional round of fund raising may suffer dilution in their investment.

No Assurance the WCAR can be successfully revitalized.

We only recently began to seek to revitalize the World Championship Air Race Series. There is no assurance we will be successful in our efforts to hold any races or generate positive cash flow from any races held. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to promote the WCAR and cannot generate positive cash flow therefrom, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Not operated for profit.

We believe the WCAR was staged by Red Bull for promotional purposes and not with a view to generating a profit. We are not aware of any previous air race series that has successfully operated profitably for an extended period of time and there can be no assurance we will be able to do so. If we cannot operate the WCAR profitably, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition

We need capital to organize and stage the WCAR

We currently lack the capital necessary to stage an air race. We are seeking to obtain commitments and advance payments from potential host cities and other sponsors. There is no assurance we will be successful in our efforts to raise the capital necessary to stage a series or even one air race or that host cities or sponsors will make sufficient payments for us to organize and stage an air race. If we are unsuccessful in our efforts to raise capital or obtain advance payments sufficient to fund an air race, it would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Even f we succeed in obtaining sufficient funds to stage an air race, there is no assurance we will generate positive cash flow from the staging of an air race or series of air races and the failure to do so it would have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our current management has no experience in promoting an air race.

Our current management has no experience in the promotion of an event such as the WCAR. Consequently, we have recruited former members of the team which staged the WCAR for Red Bull to assist us. There is no assurance we will be able to retain the services of these individuals or that they will be able to hire any additional personnel necessary to successfully promote the WCAR. Any failure to attract new or retain these key individuals could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The WCAR has not been staged since the 2019 season.

Red Bull held its last air race in 2019. This gap in the presentation of air races may have caused fans to lose interest and switch to other forms of entertainment events and may have caused cities and sponsors to turn to other ways of promoting themselves. There can be no assurance that any race we may stage will be viewed by as many fans as watched the WCAR when it was promoted by Red Bull.

Air racing is a highly regulated activity.

In order to stage an air race we need to obtain the right for the planes and other vehicles to fly in designated air space. There is no assurance that we can obtain the rights to the air space necessary to hold air races. If we are not able to obtain the air rights in the location of a city which is willing to host an event, we will be unable to stage air races which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Air racing is extremely dangerous.

By its nature, air racing is extremely dangerous. Although all pilots and race crews are highly trained, there can be no assurance an accident will not occur injuring participants and spectators. There is no assurance we can obtain insurance sufficient to pay any claims or awards that would result from an accident or, that if obtained, the terms of such insurance would be favorable to us.


An air race could be the object of a terrorist attack.

By its nature an air race is a highly visible public event intended to attract a large crowd of spectators. Some of the cities which we will approach to host an air race are located in the Middle East and other areas prone to terrorist attacks. If one of our events was to become the target of a terrorist attack or if host cities or the public were to believe that one of our events will be the subject of a terrorist attack, it could have an adverse impact on the willingness of a city to host an event or the public to attend any race we stage. This could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We are a trading company and depend upon our business for our operating cash flows.

All of our operations are conducted, and almost all of our assets are owned, by our subsidiaries. Consequently, our cash flows and our ability to meet our obligations depend upon the cash flows of our subsidiaries and the payment of funds by these subsidiaries to us in the form of dividends, distributions or otherwise. The ability of our subsidiaries to make any payments to us depends on their earnings, the terms of their indebtedness, including the terms of any credit facilities and legal restrictions. Any failure to receive dividends or distributions from our subsidiaries when needed could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We have made a number of unsuccessful acquisitions. Future acquisitions or strategic investments could disrupt our business and harm our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We have made a number of acquisitions of smaller companies we intended to grow and operate profitably. We were not successful in these efforts.

We may in the future explore potential acquisitions of companies or strategic investments to strengthen our business. Even if we identify an appropriate acquisition candidate, we may not be successful in negotiating the terms or financing of the acquisition, and our due diligence may fail to identify all of the problems, liabilities or other shortcomings or challenges of an acquired business.

Acquisitions involve numerous risks, any of which could harm our business, including:

straining our financial resources;

anticipated benefits may not materialize as rapidly as we expect, or at all;

diversion of management time and focus from operating our business to address acquisition integration challenges;

retention of employees from the acquired company;

cultural challenges associated with integrating employees from the acquired company into our organization;

integration of the acquired company’s accounting, management information, human resources and other administrative systems;

the need to implement or improve controls, procedures and policies at a business that prior to the acquisition may have lacked effective controls, procedures and policies; and

litigation or other claims in connection with the acquired company, including claims from terminated employees, former stockholders or other third parties.

Failure to appropriately mitigate these risks or other issues related to strategic investments and acquisitions could result in reducing or completely eliminating any anticipated benefits of transactions, and harm our business generally. Future acquisitions could also result in dilutive issuances of our equity securities, the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities, amortization expenses or the impairment of goodwill, any of which could have a material adverse effect on business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our business could be adversely affected by economic developments in the digital media, sports and entertainment industries and/or the economy in general.

The competition for viewers at sporting events such as our Air Race is extremely intense and our business of supplying a robust fan engagement platform designed to enhance the fan experience and drive commercial aspects of the sports and entertainment business, is highly competitive. We are therefore susceptible to not only the economics of the sports and entertainment business, but also the economy in general. Any significant downturn in the market or in general economic conditions would likely negatively affect our business and your investment in our common stock.

Future growth and development of operations will depend on acceptance of our Touchpoint platform and apps. If our fan engagement platform is not deemed desirable, and we cannot establish a viable customer base, we may not be able to generate future revenues. This would result in a failure of our business and a loss of any investment one makes in our shares.

The acceptance of our fan engagement platform is critically important to our success. We cannot be certain that it will be appealing to prospective customers and their fans, and, as a result, there may not be a demand for our platform.

Demand for our fan engagement platform depends on many factors, including:

the number of customers we can attract and retain over time;

the economy in general and, in periods of rapidly declining economic conditions, customers may defer services, such as ours, to pay their own debts to remain solvent;

the competitive environment in the digital media, sports and entertainment markets may force us to reduce prices below desired pricing level or increase promotional spending;

the ability to anticipate changes in user preferences and to meet customers’ needs in a timely, cost-effective manner.

All these factors could result in immediate and longer-term declines in demand for our offered services through our fan engagement platform, which could adversely affect our sales, cash flows and overall financial condition. As a result, an investor could lose his or her entire investment.

Competition in markets in which we operate is extensive and varied and our competitors are mostly larger and more established than we are.

Our business and the industry in which we operate are subject to extreme competition. There can be no guarantee that we can develop or sustain a market position or expand our business to successfully compete with other larger and more established companies. We anticipate the intensity of competition will increase.

We compete with many entities providing similar services to prospective customers. Such competitors include large nationwide businesses engaged in providing fan platforms, including but not limited to companies that have established loyal customer bases over several decades and have the same or a similar business plan as we do, and may be looking to expand nationwide; and a variety of other local and national software development companies with which we either currently or may, in the future, compete.


Many current and potential competitors are well established, have longer operating histories, significantly greater financial, operational resources and name recognition than we have. As a result, these competitors may have more credibility with both existing and potential customers, be able to offer more services, and more aggressively promote and sell their services. Our competitors may be able to support more aggressive pricing than us, which could adversely affect sales, cause us to decrease prices to remain competitive, or otherwise reduce the overall gross profit earned on our services.

Competition among sporting events for viewers and sponsors is extremely intense. There are numerous events with worldwide appeal that are more established and financially stable than the WCAR.

There are numerous sporting events held regularly throughout the world in various disciplines with established sponsor relationships and fan bases. Competition for sponsors for the WCAR and viewership is fierce. There can be no guarantee that we can develop or sustain relationships with sponsors or a significant fan base or expand our business to successfully compete with other larger and more established events. We anticipate the intensity of competition will increase.

Changes in user preferences and discretionary spending may have a material adverse effect on our revenue, results of operations and financial condition.

Our future success depends, in part, upon the popularity of our services and our ability to develop our services and products in a way that appeals to users. Our future success depends, to a significant extent, on discretionary user spending, which is influenced by general economic conditions and availability of discretionary income. Accordingly, we may experience an inability to generate revenue during economic downturns or during periods of uncertainty, where users decide to acquire less expensive services or products, or to forego expenditures due to a lack of available capital. Any material decline in discretionary spending could have a material adverse effect on our sales, results of operations, business and financial condition.

Our quarterly results of operations may fluctuate in the future. As a result, we may fail to meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, which could cause our stock price to decline.

The sports and entertainment business is extremely competitive and commercial success of any service is often dependent on factors beyond our control, including to market acceptance and quality of our services. Our quarterly results of operations have in the past, and may in the future, fluctuate as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including limited visibility of the timing and certainty of future services and projects. In future periods, our revenue or profitability could decline or grow more slowly than we expect. If our quarterly revenues or results of operations do not meet or exceed the expectations of securities analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could decline substantially. In addition to the other risk factors set forth in this “Risk Factors” section, factors that may cause fluctuations in our quarterly revenues or results of operations include:

our ability to increase keep existing clients and attract new clients;

our failure to accurately estimate or control costs;

the loss of significant clients;

maintaining appropriate staffing levels and capabilities relative to projected growth;

adverse judgments or settlements in legal disputes; and

general economic, industry and market conditions and those conditions specific to companies such as us.

We believe that our quarterly revenues and results of operations on a year-over-year and sequential quarter-over-quarter basis may vary significantly in the future and that period-to-period comparisons of our results of operations may not be meaningful. You should not rely on the results of prior quarters as an indication of future performance.


If our clients experience financial distress, or seek to change or delay payment terms, this could negatively affect our business, results of operations or financial condition.

At any given time, one or more of our clients may experience financial difficulty, file for bankruptcy protection or go out of business. Unfavorable economic and financial conditions could result in an increase in client financial difficulties that affect us. If our clients experience financial difficulties, they may be unable to pay us in accordance with our agreements, or may seek to significantly delay or otherwise alter payment terms. This could result in reduced revenues as well as write-offs of accounts receivable and expenditures billable to clients, and if such difficulties were severe, reduced liquidity. Accordingly, if our clients experience financial distress, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Our executive officers do not reside in the United States.

Our U.S. stockholders would face difficulty in:

Effecting service of process within the United States on our executive officers, if considered necessary.

Enforcing judgments against the executive officers obtained in U.S. courts based on the civil liability provisions of the U.S. federal securities laws.

Bringing an original action in foreign courts to enforce liabilities based on the U.S. federal securities laws against the executive officers.

Accordingly, persons contemplating an investment in our common stock should seriously consider these factors before making an investment decision.

Our future success depends on the continuing efforts of our key employees and our ability to attract, hire, retain and motivate highly skilled and creative employees in the future.

Our future success depends on the continuing efforts of our executive officers and other key employees, and in particular Mark White, our Chief Executive Officer, and Martin Ward, our Chief Financial Officer. We rely on the leadership, knowledge and experience that our executive officers and key employees provide. They foster our corporate culture, which we believe has been instrumental to our ability to attract and retain new talent. Any failure to attract new or retain key creative talent could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our executive officers have no experience in staging and promoting an air race. Our ability to present an air race depends on the efforts of personnel we only recently engaged. The market for talent in air racing and media is intensely competitive, which could increase our costs to attract and retain talented employees. As a result, we may incur significant costs to attract and retain employees, including significant expenditures related to salaries and benefits and compensation expenses related to equity awards, and we may lose new employees to our competitors or other companies before we realize the benefit of our investment in recruiting and training them.

Employee turnover, including changes in our management team and the individuals engaged to present the WCAR, could disrupt our business. The loss of one or more of our executive officers or other key employees, or our inability to attract and retain highly skilled and creative employees, could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We may not have sufficient insurance coverage and an interruption of our business or loss of a significant amount of property could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and operations.

We currently do not maintain any insurance policies against loss of key personnel and business interruption as well as product liability claims. If such events were to occur, our business, financial performance and financial position may be materially and adversely affected.


We could become involved in claims or litigations that may result in adverse outcomes.

From time-to-time we may be involved in a variety of claims or litigations. Such proceedings may initially be viewed as immaterial but, could prove to be material. Litigations are inherently unpredictable and excessive verdicts do occur. Given the inherent uncertainties in litigation, even when we can reasonably estimate the amount of possible loss or range of loss and reasonably estimable loss contingencies, the actual outcome may change in the future due to new developments or changes in approach. In addition, such claims or litigations could involve significant expense and diversion of management’s attention and resources from other matters.

Our business could be adversely affected if we fail to protect our intellectual property.

We generally enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees, freelancers and vendors to control access to and distribution of our intellectual property or that of our clients. Despite these precautions, it may be possible for a third party to copy or otherwise obtain and use our or our clients’ intellectual property without authorization. Policing unauthorized use is difficult. The steps we take may not prevent misappropriation of intellectual property and our confidentiality agreements may not be enforceable. In addition, we may be required to litigate in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights, to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others or to defend against claims of infringement or invalidity. Any such litigation could result in substantial costs and diversion of resources. In the event we are unable to prevent or are required to defend misappropriations of intellectual property, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

There is no intellectual property which acts as a barrier to entry to holding an air race.

We do not hold any intellectual property rights or established relationships which could be used to prevent or hinder another party from staging an air race or a series of air races. If another party were to seek to stage a competitive race series, even if failed in such effort, it could have a disruptive impact on our attempt to conduct the WCAR and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We may be unable to adequately safeguard our intellectual property or we may face claims that may be costly to resolve or that limit our ability to use such intellectual property in the future.

Our business is reliant on our intellectual property. Our software, which we believe to be proprietary and unique, is the result of our research and development efforts. However, we are unable to assure you that third parties will not assert infringement claims against us in respect of our intellectual property or that such claims will not be successful. It may be difficult for us to establish or protect our intellectual property against such third parties and we could incur substantial costs and diversion of management resources in defending any claims relating to proprietary rights. If any party succeeds in asserting a claim against us relating to the disputed intellectual property, we may need to obtain licenses to continue to use the same. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain these licenses on commercially reasonable terms, if at all. The failure to obtain the necessary licenses or other rights could cause our business results to suffer.

Where litigation is necessary to safeguard our intellectual property, or to determine the validity and scope of the proprietary rights of others, this could result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results or future prospects.

We rely on third parties to provide services in connection with our business, and any failure by these third parties to perform their obligations could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We have entered into agreements with third parties that include, but are not limited to, information technology systems (including hosting our website, mobile application and our point of sale system), software development and support, select marketing services, employee benefits servicing and video production and distribution. Services provided by third-party suppliers could be interrupted as a result of many factors. Accordingly, we are subject to the risks associated with the third parties’ abilities to provide these services to meet our needs. Any failure by a third party to provide services for which we have contracted on a timely basis or within expected service level and performance standards could result in a disruption of our business and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


It is possible that our TP platform may infringe on other patented, trademarked or copyrighted concepts. Litigation arising out of infringement or other commercial disputes could cause us to incur expenses and impair our competitive advantage.

We cannot be certain that our products or services will not infringe upon patents, trademarks, copyrights or other intellectual property rights held by third parties. Because we may rely on third parties to help develop some of our products and services, we cannot ensure that litigation will not arise from disputes involving these third parties. We may incur substantial expenses in defending against prospective claims, regardless of their merit. Successful claims against us may result in substantial monetary liability, significantly impact our results of operations in one or more quarters, or materially disrupt the conduct of our business. Our success depends in part on our ability to obtain and enforce intellectual property protection for our products and services, to preserve our trade secrets and to operate without infringing the proprietary rights of third parties, as previously stated.

The validity and breadth of claims covered in our copyrights and trademarks that we intend to file involve complex legal and factual questions and, therefore, may be highly uncertain. No assurances can be given that any future copyright, trademark or other applications:

(i)will be issued;

(ii)that the scope of any future intellectual property protection will exclude competitors or provide competitive advantages to the company;

(iii)that any copyrights or trademarks will be held valid if subsequently challenged;

(iv)that others will not claim rights in, or ownership of, the potential copyrights or trademarks or other proprietary rights held by us; or

(v)that our intellectual property will not infringe, or be alleged to infringe, the proprietary rights of others.

Furthermore, there can be no assurance that others have not developed or will not develop similar products and services. Also, whether or not additional intellectual property protection is issued to the company, others may hold or receive intellectual protection covering projects that were subsequently developed by the company. No assurance can be given that others will not or have not independently developed or otherwise acquired substantially equivalent intellectual property.

We may be subject to claims that we have wrongfully hired an employee from a competitor or that we or our employees have wrongfully used or disclosed alleged confidential information or trade secrets of their former employers.

We employ individuals who were previously employed at other media companies with which we compete. Although no claims against us are currently pending, we may be subject to claims that our employees or prospective employees are subject to a continuing obligation to their former employers (such as non-competition or non-solicitation obligations) or claims that our employees or we have inadvertently or otherwise used or disclosed trade secrets or other proprietary information of their former employers. Litigation may be necessary to defend against these claims. Even if we are successful in defending against these claims, litigation could result in substantial costs and be a distraction to management.


We depend on advanced technologies and computer systems and we cannot predict the effect that rapid technological change or alternative forms of entertainment may have on us or our industry.

Our industry continues to undergo significant changes as a result of technological developments. The rapid growth of technology and shifting consumer tastes prevent us from being able to accurately predict the overall effect that technological growth or the availability of alternative forms of advertising and fan engagement may have on the potential revenues from, and profitability of, our products and services. To enhance our technologies, we are required to purchase third-party licenses, which can result in significant expenditures. In some cases, the licenses are not available on commercially reasonable terms, or at all. At the time we purchase licenses, we do not know if the related technology will enhance our revenues. Furthermore, the licensed software could have errors or defects which could result in significantly increased costs. Such delays could have an adverse effect on our brand name and our relationship with our clients, which, given our reliance on our core strategic client relationships, could result in a decrease in our revenues. As a result, in the event that we do not keep pace with technological advancements, or our technologies do not meet our expectations, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We rely heavily on information technology systems and could face cybersecurity risks.

We rely heavily on information technologies and infrastructure to manage and conduct our business. This includes the production and digital storage of content and client information and the development of new business opportunities. The incidence of malicious technology-related events, such as cyberattacks, ransomware, computer hacking, computer viruses, worms or other destructive or disruptive software and other malicious activities could have a negative impact on our business and productivity. In addition, the prevalent use of mobile devices that access confidential information increases the risk of data security breaches, which could lead to the loss of confidential information or other intellectual property. We have taken preventative steps and seek to follow industry best practices, including the use of firewalls, deployment of antivirus software and regular patch maintenance updates; however no system is completely immune from these types of attacks. If we become subject to cyber breach, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Power outages, equipment failure, natural disasters (including extreme weather) or terrorist activities can impact an entire system. We have designed our systems to provide replication across our United Kingdom, United States and Hong Kong locations, including data and toolsets designed to allow most or all work-related activities to continue if there is a disruption at one location. However, in the event of such a disruption, our ability to operate nonetheless may be adversely affected. Human error may also affect our systems and result in disruption of our services or loss or improper disclosure of client and personal data, business information, including intellectual property, or other confidential information. We also utilize third parties to store, transfer or process data, and system failures or network disruptions or breaches in the systems of such third parties could adversely affect our reputation or business. Any such breaches or breakdowns could expose us to legal liability, be expensive to remedy, result in a loss of our or our clients’ or vendors’ proprietary information and damage our reputation. In addition, such a breach may require notification to governmental agencies, the media or other individuals pursuant to various federal and state privacy and security laws, if applicable. Efforts to develop, implement and maintain security measures are costly, may not be successful in preventing these events from occurring and require ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome security measures become more sophisticated. We take precautions to limit access to sensitive information to only those individuals requiring it. Any significant distribution in our equipment or loss or improper disclosure of data could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

Cyberattacks and security breaches of our platform, or those impacting our customers or third parties, could adversely impact our brand and reputation and our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our business involves the collection, storage, processing, and transmission of confidential information, customer and other personal data. We have built our reputation on the premise that our platform offers our customers a secure way to interact with their fan base. As a result, any actual or perceived security breach of us or our third-party partners may:

harm our reputation and brand;

result in our systems or services being unavailable and interrupt the operations of our customers;

result in improper disclosure of data and violations of applicable privacy and other laws;

result in significant regulatory scrutiny, investigations, fines, penalties, and other legal, regulatory, and financial exposure;

cause us to incur significant remediation costs;

lead to theft or irretrievable loss of monies being transmitted to our customers;

reduce customer confidence in, or decreased use of, our products and services;

divert the attention of management from the operation of our business;

result in significant compensation or contractual penalties from us to our customers or third parties as a result of losses to them or claims by them; and

adversely affect our business and operating results.

Further, any actual or perceived breach or cybersecurity attack directed at others, whether or not we are directly impacted, could lead to a general loss of customer confidence in doing business online or in the use of technology to conduct transactions, which could negatively impact us.

An increasing number of organizations, including large merchants, businesses, technology companies, and financial institutions, as well as government institutions, have disclosed breaches of their information security systems, some of which have involved sophisticated and highly targeted attacks, including on their websites, mobile applications, and infrastructure.

Attacks upon systems across a variety of industries are increasing in their frequency, persistence, and sophistication, and, in many cases, are being conducted by sophisticated, well-funded, and organized groups and individuals, including state actors. The techniques used to obtain unauthorized, improper, or illegal access to systems and information (including customers’ personal data), disable or degrade services, or sabotage systems are constantly evolving, may be difficult to detect quickly, and often are not recognized or detected until after they have been launched against a target. These attacks may occur on our systems or those of our third-party service providers or customers. Certain types of cyberattacks could harm us even if our systems are left undisturbed. For example, attacks may be designed to deceive employees and service providers into releasing control of our systems to a hacker, while others may aim to introduce computer viruses or malware into our systems with a view to stealing confidential or proprietary data. Additionally, certain threats are designed to remain dormant or undetectable until launched against a target and we may not be able to implement adequate preventative measures.

Although we have developed systems and processes designed to protect the data we manage for our customers, prevent data loss and other security breaches, effectively respond to known and potential risks, there can be no assurance that these security measures will provide absolute security or prevent breaches or attacks. Certain threat actors may be supported by significant financial and technological resources, making them even more sophisticated and difficult to detect. Further, there has been an increase in such activities as a result of the novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, pandemic. As a result, our costs and the resources we devote to protecting against these advanced threats and their consequences may continue to increase over time.

Our networks and systems may require significant expansion to accommodate new processing and storage requirements.

We may experience limitations relating to the capacity of our networks, systems and processes. In the future, we may need to expand our network and systems if our networks and systems cannot accommodate new processing and storage requirements due to growth in our business. Our network or systems may not be capable of meeting the demand for increased capacity, or we may incur additional unanticipated expenses to accommodate these capacity demands. In addition, we may lose valuable data, or our network may temporarily shut down if we fail to adequately expand or maintain our network capabilities to meet future requirements. Any lapse in our ability to store or transmit data or any disruption in our network processing may damage our reputation and result in the loss of clients and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.


Failure to attract or retain qualified information technology staff may impair our ability to effectively compete.

Due to the nature of our business, we have significantly more complex technology requirements than most typical enterprises of a comparable size. We find ourselves competing for top information technology and software development talent against much larger technology companies that can offer significant career advantages, or technology startups that can offer significant compensation incentives. If we become unable to acquire or retain qualified information technology staff, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.

We are subject to an extensive and highly-evolving regulatory landscape and any adverse changes to, or our failure to comply with, any laws and regulations could adversely affect our brand, reputation, business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our business and the businesses of our customers conducted using our platform and technology, are subject to extensive laws, rules, regulations, policies, orders, determinations, directives, treaties, and legal and regulatory interpretations and guidance in the markets in which we operate, including those governing privacy, data governance, data protection, cybersecurity, fraud detection, payment services, consumer protection and tax. Many of these legal and regulatory regimes were adopted prior to the advent of the internet, mobile technologies, digital assets, and related technologies. As a result, they are subject to significant uncertainty, and vary widely across U.S. federal, state, and local and international jurisdictions. These legal and regulatory regimes, including the laws, rules, and regulations thereunder, evolve frequently and may be modified, interpreted, and applied in an inconsistent manner from one jurisdiction to another, and may conflict with one another. To the extent we have not complied with such laws, rules, and regulations, we could be subject to significant fines, revocation of licenses, limitations on our products and services, reputational harm, and other regulatory consequences, each of which may be significant and could adversely affect our business, operating results, and financial condition.

In addition to existing laws and regulations, various governmental and regulatory bodies, including legislative and executive bodies, in the United States and in other countries may adopt new laws and regulations, or new interpretations of existing laws and regulations may be issued by such bodies or the judiciary, which may change how we operate our business, how our products and services and those of our customers are regulated, and what products or services we and our competitors can offer, requiring changes to our compliance and risk mitigation measures

As we expand our international activities, our obligations to comply with the laws, rules, regulations, and policies of a variety of jurisdictions will increase.

As we expand internationally, we will become obligated to comply with the laws, rules, regulations, policies, and legal interpretations of the jurisdictions in which we operate and those into which we offer services on a cross-border basis. Laws regulating the internet, mobile technologies, and related technologies outside of the United States often impose different, more specific, or even conflicting obligations on us, as well as broader liability.

Due to the uncertain application of existing laws and regulations, it may be that, despite our regulatory and legal analysis concluding that certain products and services are currently unregulated, such products or services may indeed be subject to licensing, or authorization obligations that we have not obtained or with which we have not complied. The failure to comply with applicable regulations could lead to penalties which could significantly and adversely affect our continued operations and financial condition.

Any significant disruption in our products and services, in our information technology systems, or in any of the blockchain networks of third parties relied upon by our customers to authenticate and identify collectables, could result in a loss of customers and adversely impact our brand and reputation and our business, operating results, and financial condition.

Our reputation and ability to attract and retain customers and grow our business depends on our ability to operate our service at high levels of reliability, scalability, and performance. The use of certain features of our TP platform requires access to the blockchain networks maintained by third parties to identify and authenticate digital assets such as the collectables to be sold by our customers, which access is dependent on our systems’ ability to access the internet. Further, the successful and continued operations of such blockchain networks will depend on a network of computers, miners, or validators, and their continued operations, all of which may be impacted by service interruptions.


Our systems, the systems of our third-party service providers and blockchain networks have experienced from time to time, and may experience in the future service interruptions or degradation because of hardware and software defects or malfunctions, distributed denial-of-service and other cyberattacks, insider threats, break-ins, sabotage, human error, vandalism, earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, and other natural disasters, power losses, disruptions in telecommunications services, fraud, military or political conflicts, terrorist attacks, computer viruses or other malware, or other events. In addition, extraordinary site usage could cause our computer systems to operate at an unacceptably slow speed or even fail. Some of our systems and the systems of our third-party service providers are not fully redundant, and our or their disaster recovery planning may not be sufficient for all possible outcomes or events.

If any of our systems, or those of our third-party service providers, are disrupted for any reason, our products and services may fail, resulting in unanticipated disruptions, incomplete or inaccurate recording or processing of sales, loss of customer information, increased demand on limited customer support resources, customer claims, complaints with regulatory organizations or lawsuits. A prolonged interruption in the availability or reduction in the availability, speed, or functionality of our products and services could harm our business. Frequent or persistent interruptions in our services could cause current or potential customers to believe that our systems are unreliable, leading them to switch to our competitors or to avoid or reduce the use of our products and services, and could permanently harm our reputation and brands. Moreover, to the extent that any system failure or similar event results in damages to our customers, these customers could seek significant compensation or contractual penalties from us for their losses, and those claims, even if unsuccessful, would likely be time-consuming and costly for us to address.

We could be adversely affected by violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and similar worldwide anti-bribery and anti-kickback laws with respect to our activities outside the United States.

We distribute our products to locations within and outside the United States as well as operate our business within and outside the United States. The U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and other similar anti-bribery and anti-kickback laws and regulations, generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to non-U.S. officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. We cannot assure you that we will be successful in preventing our agents from taking actions in violation of these laws or regulations. Such violations, or allegations of such violations, could disrupt our business and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Public health epidemics or outbreaks, such as COVID-19, could materially and adversely impact our business.

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. While initially the outbreak was largely concentrated in China and caused significant disruptions to its economy, it has now spread throughout the world.

Many countries, provincial, state and local governmental authorities have issued stay-at-home orders, proclamations and/or directives aimed at minimizing the spread of COVID-19 and many individuals and businesses have voluntarily limited their activities. Additional, more restrictive proclamations and/or directives may be issued in the future. As a result, we have seen delays in commencement of operations by licensees of the Touchpoint App and platform which leads to subsequent delays in subscriptions being processed. All of our employees and management can operate from home whilst the stay-at-home orders remain in place.

The ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s operations is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the duration of the COVID-19 outbreak, new information which may emerge concerning the severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, and any additional preventative and protective actions that governments, or the Company, may direct, which may result in an extended period of continued business disruption, reduced customer traffic and reduced operations. Any resulting financial impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time but is anticipated to have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.


The measures taken to date will impact the Company’s business for the fiscal first, second and third quarters of 2021 and potentially beyond. The significance of the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the Company’s business and the duration for which it may have an impact cannot be determined at this time.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR COMMON STOCK AND OUR STATUS AS A PUBLIC COMPANY.

As a public company, we are subject to additional reporting and corporate governance requirements that will require additional management time, resources and expense.

As a public company we are obligated to file with the SEC annual and quarterly information and other reports that are specified in the Exchange Act. We are also subject to other reporting and corporate governance requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, all of which impose significant compliance and reporting obligations upon us and require us to incur additional expense in order to fulfill such obligations.

Trading on the OTC Markets is volatile and sporadic, which could depress the market price of our common stock and make it difficult for our security holders to resell their common stock.

Our common stock is quoted on the OTCQB tier of the OTC Markets. Trading in securities quoted on the OTC Markets is often thin and characterized by wide fluctuations in trading prices, due to many factors, some of which may have little to do with our operations or business prospects. This volatility could depress the market price of our common stock for reasons unrelated to operating performance. Moreover, the OTC Markets is not a stock exchange, and trading of securities on the OTC Markets is often more sporadic than the trading of securities listed on a quotation system like Nasdaq Capital Market or a stock exchange like the NYSE American. These factors may result in investors having difficulty reselling any shares of our common stock.

Our stock price is likely to be highly volatile because of several factors, including a limited public float.

The market price of our common stock has been volatile in the past and the market price of our common stock is likely to be highly volatile in the future. You may not be able to resell shares of our common stock following periods of volatility because of the market’s adverse reaction to volatility.

Other factors that could cause such volatility may include, among other things:

actual or anticipated fluctuations in our operating results;

the absence of securities analysts covering us and distributing research and recommendations about us;

we may have a low trading volume for a number of reasons, including that a large portion of our stock is closely held;

overall stock market fluctuations;

announcements concerning our business or those of our competitors;

actual or perceived limitations on our ability to raise capital when we require it, and to raise such capital on favorable terms;

conditions or trends in the industry;

litigation;

changes in market valuations of other similar companies;

future sales of common stock;

departure of key personnel or failure to hire key personnel; and

general market conditions.

Any of these factors could have a significant and adverse impact on the market price of our common stock and/or warrants. In addition, the stock market in general has at times experienced extreme volatility and rapid decline that has often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of particular companies. These broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock and/or warrants, regardless of our actual operating performance.

Our common stock is a “penny stock” under SEC rules. It may be more difficult to resell securities classified as “penny stock.”

Our common stock is a “penny stock” under applicable SEC rules (generally defined as non-exchange traded stock with a per-share price below $5.00). These rules impose additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers that recommend the purchase or sale of penny stocks to persons other than those who qualify as “established customers” or “accredited investors.” For example, broker-dealers must determine the appropriateness for non-qualifying persons of investments in penny stocks. Broker-dealers must also provide, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, disclose the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, furnish monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account, provide a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser, and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction.

Legal remedies available to an investor in “penny stocks” may include the following:

If a “penny stock” is sold to the investor in violation of the requirements listed above, or other federal or states securities laws, the investor may be able to cancel the purchase and receive a refund of the investment.

If a “penny stock” is sold to the investor in a fraudulent manner, the investor may be able to sue the persons and firms that committed the fraud for damages.

These requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security that is subject to the penny stock rules. The additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by such requirements may discourage broker-dealers from effecting transactions in our securities, which could severely limit the market price and liquidity of our securities. These requirements may restrict the ability of broker-dealers to sell our common stock and may affect your ability to resell our common stock.

Many brokerage firms discourage or refrain from recommending investments in penny stocks. Most institutional investors will not invest in penny stocks. In addition, many individual investors will not invest in penny stocks due, among other reasons, to the increased financial risk generally associated with these investments.

For these reasons, penny stocks may have a limited market and, consequently, limited liquidity. We can give no assurance at what time, if ever, our common stock will no longer be classified as a “penny stock” in the future.


As a result of our failure to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, the price of our securities may be adversely affected.

Our internal control over financial reporting has weaknesses and conditions that require correction or remediation, the disclosure of which may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock. We are required to establish and maintain appropriate internal control over financial reporting. Failure to establish those controls, or any failure of those controls once established, could adversely affect our public disclosures regarding our business, prospects, financial condition or results of operations. In addition, management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting may identify weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting or other matters that may raise concerns for investors. Any actual or perceived weaknesses and conditions that need to be addressed in our internal control over financial reporting or disclosure of management’s assessment of our internal control over financial reporting may have an adverse impact on the price of our common stock.

We are required to comply with certain provisions of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and if we fail to continue to comply, our business could be harmed and the price of our securities could decline.

Rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require an annual assessment of internal control over financial reporting, and for certain issuers an attestation of this assessment by the issuer’s independent registered public accounting firm. The standards that must be met for management to assess the internal control over financial reporting as effective are evolving and complex, and require significant documentation, testing, and possible remediation to meet the detailed standards. We expect to incur significant expenses and to devote resources to Section 404 compliance on an ongoing basis. It is difficult for us to predict how long it will take or costly it will be to complete the assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting for each year and to remediate any deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we may not be able to complete the assessment and remediation process on a timely basis. In the event that our Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer determines that our internal control over financial reporting is not effective as defined under Section 404, we cannot predict how regulators will react or how the market prices of our securities will be affected; however, we believe that there is a risk that investor confidence and the market value of our securities may be negatively affected.

Certain provisions of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware may have anti-takeover effects, which may make an acquisition of our company by another company more difficult.

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, which prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any business combination, including mergers and asset sales, with an interested stockholder (generally, a 15% or greater stockholder) for a period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder, unless the business combination is approved in a prescribed manner. The operation of Section 203 may have anti-takeover effects, which could delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt that a holder of our common stock might consider in its best interest.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and bylaws may delay or prevent a takeover which may not be in the best interests of our stockholders.

Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and our bylaws, as amended, may be deemed to have anti-takeover effects, which include when and by whom special meetings of our stockholders may be called, and may delay, defer or prevent a takeover attempt. Further, our certificate of incorporation, as amended, authorize the issuance of up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock with such rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors in their sole discretion. Our board of directors may, without stockholder approval, issue series of preferred stock with dividends, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of the holders of our common stock.

We do not expect to pay dividends in the foreseeable future.

We do not intend to declare dividends for the foreseeable future, as we anticipate that we will reinvest any future earnings in the development and growth of our business. Therefore, investors will not receive any funds unless they sell their common stock, and stockholders may be unable to sell their shares on favorable terms. We cannot assure you of a positive return on investment or that you will not lose the entire amount of your investment in our common stock.


The issuance of a large number of shares of our common stock could significantly dilute existing stockholders and negatively impact the market price of our common stock.

On March 16, 2021, we entered into a Standby Equity Commitment Agreement (“SECA”), with MacRab, LLC (“MacRab”) providing that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, MacRab is committed to purchase, on an unconditional basis, shares of our common stock (“Put Shares”) at an aggregate price of up to $5,000,000 over the course of its term. Pursuant to the SECA, the purchase price for each of the Put Shares equals 90% of the lesser of the (i) “Market Price,” which is defined as the average of the two lowest volume weighted average the Valuation Period. The Valuation Period is the 8 trading days immediately following the date MacRab receives the Put Shares in its brokerage account,. As a result, if we sell shares of common stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement, we will be issuing common stock at below market prices, which could cause the market price of our common stock to decline, and if such issuances are significant in number, the amount of the decline in our market price could also be significant. In general, we are unlikely to sell shares of common stock under the Equity Purchase Agreement at a time when the additional dilution to stockholders would be substantial unless we are unable to obtain capital to meet our financial obligations from other sources on better terms at such time. However, if we do, the dilution that could result from such issuances could have a material adverse impact on existing stockholders and could cause the price of our common stock to fall rapidly based on the amount of such dilution. Under the SECA MacRab received 2,272,727 stock purchase warrants with an exercise price of $0.044 upon the signing of the agreement. MacRab retains the rights to the warrants if the agreement is ever terminated.

MacRab may sell a large number of shares, resulting in substantial diminution to the value of shares held by existing stockholders.

Pursuant to the SECA, we are prohibited from delivering a Put Notice to MacRab if the purchase shares would cause MacRab to beneficially own more than 4.99% of our then-outstanding shares of common stock. These restrictions, however, do not prevent MacRab from selling shares of common stock received in connection with the $5,000,000 MacRab equity line (the “Equity Line”), including shares purchased pursuant to the warrants granted to MacRab, and then receiving additional shares of common stock in connection with a subsequent issuance. In this way, MacRab could sell more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of common stock in a relatively short time frame while never holding more than 4.99% at any one time. As a result, existing stockholders and new investors could experience substantial diminution in the value of their shares of common stock. Additionally, we do not have the right to control the timing and amount of any sales by MacRab of the shares issued under the Equity Line.

Shares eligible for future sale may adversely affect the market.

From time to time, certain of our stockholders and the holders of outstanding convertible notes and warrants, may be eligible to sell all or some of their shares of common stock and shares which may be obtained upon the exercise or conversion of such warrants or notes, by means of ordinary brokerage transactions in the open market pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, subject to certain limitations. In general, pursuant to Rule 144, non-affiliate stockholders may sell freely after six months, subject only to the current public information requirement. Affiliates may sell after six months, subject to the Rule 144 volume, manner of sale (for equity securities), current public information, and notice requirements. Given the limited trading of our common stock, resale of even a small number of shares of our common stock pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective registration statement may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

In 2012, we sold certain2020 the Company had been served a claim from the former subsidiaries engaged in provisionmanagement of satellite service in 2012 to Broadband Satellite Services (“BSS”), a company incorporated under lawsLove Media regarding for unpaid wages which was settled by the payment of England and Wales. Horizon Globex, a company incorporated in Switzerland and a subsidiary of us, had provided these subsidiary companies with software and IT services.  In connection with its acquisition of our former subsidiary companies, BSS entered into three agreements with Horizon Globex pursuant to which BSS continued to use Horizon Globex to supply software and IT services.  Notwithstanding the fact that Horizon Globex has provided such ongoing software and IT services, BSS has failed to pay our fees pursuant to the agreements.  As a result, on December 23, 2014, we initiated legal proceedings in the High Court, Queens Bench Division, Commercial Court No. 2014 folio 1560 against BSS in the United Kingdom to collect such fees in the amount of $640,000.  Subsequently, BSS asserted counter claims in the amount of $5.8 million, alleging among other claims, civil fraud in connection with the sale of subsidiary companies.   Based on the timing of these claims, which were never raised until we filed our action against BSS, it is our position that these claims are specious and represent nothing more than an attempt to improve BSS's negotiating position with regard to our legitimate claims against it.   As a result, we plan to continue to carry out our claims against BSS to the fullest extent possible and to defend BSS's counter-claims vigorously.  We note further that several of BSS's counter claims may be time barred by applicable sections of the contracts and plan to assert the same as an affirmative defense to such counter claim. Notwithstanding our views with regard to our claims against BSS and BSS's counterclaims, litigation is by its nature unpredictable and therefore we cannot guarantee with certainty the outcome of our dispute with BSS.$50,000.

Overview

Our operations include

In September 2021 we determined to revitalize the licensing“World Championship Air Race Series.” As part of softwareour effort to telecommunications operatorsrestore the WCAR, we engaged key operational staff which planned and staged the development of software application platforms that optimizemobile voice, instant messagingraces for Red Bull and advertising communications overacquired certain rights to continue the Internet. Our proprietary software techniques use internet bandwidth more efficiently than other technologies that are unableSeries. We have entered into agreements to provide a low-bandwidth solution. The Horizon Platform is a bandwidth-efficient Voice over Internet Protocol platformhost Air Race World Championships for smartphones and also provides optimized data applications including messaging and mobile advertising. We license our software solutions to telecommunications network operators and service providersthe 2022 race season in the mobile, fixed line and satellite communications markets. We are an ISO 9001 and ISO 20000-1 certified company with assets and operations in Switzerland, the United Kingdom, China, India, SingaporeAustralia, Malaysia and Hong Kong.  Jakarta and are currently in discussions with two additional cities. To enhance the appeal of the Series, we intend to showcase the latest technological developments in the application of green power in the aerospace industry along with aircraft with the latest advanced forms of mobility. Races will focus on future technologies, innovation, clean energy and lightweight mass market vehicles. New race categories will feature electric powered vehicles, vertical take-off and landing (EVTOL) and jetpacks.

 

Prior to undertaking to promote the WCAR, we were a media and technology software development company engaged in distribution of a robust fan engagement platform, the TP Platform, designed to enhance the fan experience and drive commercial aspects of the sports and entertainment business.  Our TP Platform is available as a white label product. The platform provides in-depth analytics that enable marketing teams to ensure that they deliver aligned, strategic messages and campaigns to the right audience at the right time. We have developed a mobile application, “Horizon Call,” which enables highly bandwidth-efficient VoIP calls over a smartphonewill use our TP Platform to provide fans with access to the race teams and host cities, providing for merchandising events, broadcasting opportunities, gamification, ticketing, collectables, pay per view and ongoing subscriptions. Promotion of the WCAR will showcase the features of the TP Platform to other potential users and should accelerate discussions with athletes and celebrities interested in using a 2G/EDGE, 3G, 4G/LTE, WiFi or WiMax connection. Our Horizon Call application is currently available for iPhonesthe TP Platform to engage with their fan bases through content and for Android handsets.other features.

 

Unlike other mobile VoIP applications, Horizon Call createsFor the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, our continuing operations generated revenues of $91,000 and $174,000, respectively; and recorded net losses from continuing operations of $5,195,000 and $3,545,000, respectively, and negative cash flow from continuing operating activities of $2,062,000 and $767,000, respectively. To date, activities related to the WCAR have required us to spend significant amounts which will be recouped, if at all, once we stage our first race or, possibly, upon the receipt of significant advances from cities interested in hosting a business-to-business solutionrace and sponsors and advertisers. Consequently, we continue to incur substantial losses and have not generated cash flows from operations.

Revenue: Our revenue for continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 was approximately $91,000 as compared to approximately $174,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020, a decrease of approximately $83,000 or 47.7%.

Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue is primarily the amortization of intangible assets relating to subsidiaries acquired together with our intellectual property.

Gross Deficit:  Gross deficit for the year ended December 31, 2021 was approximately $468,000 as compared to $381,000 for the year ended December 31, 2020. 

Operating Expenses: 

Operating expenses including general and administrative expenses, consultancy expenses, depreciation and impairment charges were approximately $3.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, as compared to approximately $2.8 million, for 2020, an increase of approximately $0.7 million or 24.2%.

Impairment charge: As a software solution that telecommunications operators license, brandresult of the current pandemic and deploy. Mobile operators decide howits impact on our ability to integrate Horizon Call within their portfolioconduct customer marketing efforts and how to offer it commercially. Horizon Call can be customized according to each mobile operators’ own branding. It helps them to manage rising traffic volumes while combating the competitive threat to their voice telephony revenues from other mobile VoIP applications by giving its mobile data customers a more efficient mobile VoIP solution that adds value to their mobile data network.

We believe that emerging markets represent a key opportunity for Horizon Call because there are significant markets with high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high growthinherent uncertainties in the adoption of smartphones. These factors will put increased pressure on mobile operators to manage their network availability.

In this context,entertainment and software industries within the United Kingdom and the United States, the Company has entered into some strategic relationshipsupdated its short-term projections. As a result of these re-evaluations, during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. While the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, variations from those estimates could produce materially different results.

Other Expense: Net other expense totaled approximately $1.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to approximately $0.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2020, an increase of approximately $0.9 million. The increase in net other expense is due primarily to an increase in interest expense charges and other income recognized from increased financing and the disposition of Browning during 2020.

Net Loss: Net loss from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2021 was approximately $5.2 million as compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $3.5 million for the same period in 2020.  Going forward, management believes the Company will continue to grow the business and increase profitability through organic growth and acquisitions.

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment:     Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Our local currencies, and British pounds, are our functional currencies. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

Years Ended December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020

The following table sets forth a summary of our approximate cash flows for the periods indicated:

Net cash used in operating activities from continuing operations was approximately $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to approximately $0.8 million for the same period in 2020. The increase in cash used in operating activities from continuing operations is largely due to the increase in cash expenditures in 2021 as compared to 2020 related to activities, including amounts expended to organize the WCAR.

Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was approximately $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021 as compared to net cash used of approximately $0.02 million for the previous year.

Net cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations amounted to approximately $2.5 million for 2021 and $0.6 million for 2020. Cash provided by financing activities in 2021 and 2020 was primarily from funds received for convertible loans and shares sold pursuant to the SECA with local partners in certain regions to seize upon this opportunity.MacRab, LLC.

Going Concern

For the fiscal years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we reported losses from operations of $4.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and negative cash flow from operations of $2.1 million and $0.8 million. As of December 31, 2021, we had an aggregate accumulated deficit of approximately $70.1 million. We have historically funded our losses from operations through the dateissuance of this report,debt or equity securities and the disposal of businesses we previously acquired.

Our long-term success is dependent upon among other things, achieving positive cash flows from operations. Prior to achieving positive cash flow, we will have formed strategic relationships in India, Russia and Latin America.

We expect to form strategic relationships when local regulations prevent us from accessing a particular market directly.

We plancontinue to fund our expansionoperations through the issuances of additional debt or equity. Based upon our current operational plan and budget, subject to the launching of additional clients using our TP Platform and our ability to fund the launch of the WCAR through sponsorships and advances from host cities, we believe that we will not begin to generate positive cash flows from operations prior to the second half of 2022. Pending the achievement of positive cash flows from operations, we are likely to seek to raise additional capital through the issuance of our debt and equity securities, and to issue additional shares of our common stock, or instruments exercisable for or convertible into our common stock, by exercising our right to put shares under the MacRab Equity Line entered into in March 2021, if more advantageous sources of financing are not available. However, we may be unable to raise the capital necessary to successfully launch the WCAR and achieve our goals. Actual results could differ from our estimates and assumptions; accordingly, we may have to continue to fund our operations through debt financing or sales of equity securities beyond 2022 in order to sustain operations until we achieve profitability and positive cash from operations and potential equity financing. However, we may notflows, if ever. There can be able to obtainno assurances, however, that adequate additional financing at acceptablefunding will be available on favorable terms, or at all. If such funds are not available in the future, we may be required to delay, significantly modify or terminate our operations, all and, asof which could have a material adverse effect on us.

As a result of the foregoing factors, our independent auditors issued an audit opinion with respect to our consolidated financial statements for the two years ended December 31, 2021 that indicated that there is significant doubt about our ability to continue to improve and expand our software products and to expand our business could be adversely affected.as a going concern.

Recent Developments

Business Operation

In February 2015, we announcedOur consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the rolloutoutcome of this uncertainty. These adjustments would likely include substantial impairment of the carrying amount of our platformassets and potential contingent liabilities that may arise if we are unable to fulfill various operational commitments. In addition, the value of our securities, including common stock issued in China, brand named, Aishuo. The Aishuo platform provides VoIP services,this offering, would be greatly impaired. Our ability to continue as a Value Added Virtual SIM solution delivered through a PRC entity controlled by us via various contractual arrangements, Suzhou Aishuo. The Aishuo product has been deliveredgoing concern is dependent upon generating sufficient cash flow from operations and obtaining additional capital and financing, including funds to the major storesbe raised in Chinese App marketplace including Baidu’s 91.comthis offering. If our ability to generate cash flow from operations is delayed or reduced and Baidu.com, the Tencent App store MyApp.com, 360 Qihoo store 360.cn and the ever growing Xiaomi store mi.com. The Aishuo smartphone appwe are unable to raise additional funding from other sources, we may be unable to continue in business even if this offering is expected to drive multiple revenue streamssuccessful.

Availability of Additional Funds; Recent Transactions

 At December 31, 2021, we had approximately $147,000 of cash. Apart from the supplyMacRab Equity Credit Line, we do not have any credit agreement or source of its value-added services including the rental of Chinese telephone phone numbers linkedliquidity immediately available to the app, low cost local and international calling plans and sponsorship from advertisers.  Subscribers can top up their app credit from the biggest online payment services in China including AliPay (from Alibaba), Union Pay, PayPal and Tenent’s WeChat payment service.

Since its commercial availability in the second quarter of 2015, Aishuo has been downloaded over 12 million times in 2015 and has doubled its revenues for the last 3 consecutive quarters of 2015.

In August 2015, a Chinese based Satellite operator, KeyIdea, commenced the launch of its mobile Voice over IP solution targeting its VSAT customers in China. We expect this revenue share based co-operation to contribute to our revenues as the rollout of the numerous KeyIdeas earth stations and customer increases in the next few years.

In September 2015, a US based operator, Roam Frii, commenced the launch of its mobile Voice over IP solution targeting free Wi-Fi mobile hotspots throughout New York City. We expect this revenue share based co-operation to contribute to our revenues as the rollout of the numerous New York based Wi-Fi solutions increases in the next few years.

On November 30, 2015, we were awarded our USA patent for our bandwidth efficient mobile voice over Internet Protocol ("VoIP") platform. The Company has patent applications pending in Hong Kong, China, India, Europe and Eurasia/Russia.

In December 2015, we announced the rollout of our VoIP as a Service “VaaS” platform on the Microsoft Azure cloud. The Company sells its software, branding, hosting and operator services to smaller telecommunications operators, enterprises, operators in fixed line telephony, cable TV operators and to the satellite communications sector. The Company was showcased by Microsoft Corp. for its Azure technology (https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/smb/customer-success-stories/building-a-global-business)

In addition to the developments in the rollout of Aishuo smartphone app brand in mainland China, we have commenced our penetration into the Latin American market by signing a Horizon license contract with a regional operator. We consider Latin America a huge and growing market for mobile apps as Latin America growth is forecast to be in line with the global average and is also forecasting very significant VoIP revenues growing to $12.8bn by 2018 according to Vision Gain VoIP Market Forecast (https://www.visiongain.com/Report/1107/The-Voice-Over-Internet-Protocol-(VoIP)-Market-2013-2018). On December 18, 2015, we formed a new Latin America company to facilitate our expansion into the region.

In addition, Mast Hill waived its right under Section 1.10 of the Convertible Note to require that we to it up to 21% of up to $851,000 of cash proceeds received by us after the date of the Amendment, other than amounts received from Mast Hill,

During 2015,Concurrently with the sale of the Note to Mast Hill, Talos Victory Fund, LLC and Quick Capital, LLC agreed to amend certain provisions of the transaction documents dated November 3, 2021 and December 10, 2021, whereby Talos acquired a $540,000 convertible note (the “Talos Note”) and a warrant to purchase 15,810,000 shares of our common stock (the “Talos Warrant”) and Quick acquired a $200,000 convertible note (the “Quick Note”) and a warrant to purchase 6,500,000 shares of our common stock (the “Quick Warrant”).

The Amendments with Talos and Quick provide that their Notes shall only be convertible into our common stock after the earlier of (i) the respective maturity dates of their Notes (November 3, 2022, in the case of Talos, and December 10, 2022, in the case of Quick) and (ii) the day we complete an Uplist Offering. The Amendments further provide that Section 4.17, the leak out provisions of each Note, are deleted from the Notes. The Amendments provide for a new leak out period which began March 28, 2022, and expires on the earlier of the maturity date of the holder’s Note and the date of completion of an Uplist Offering.

We do not know what the terms on which such capital would be made available. In addition, any future sale of new senior software developersour equity securities would dilute the ownership of our current shareholders and could be at prices substantially below prices at which our software researchshares currently trade. Our inability to raise capital could require us to significantly curtail or terminate our operations. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and development office atcould result in operating and financing covenants that would restrict our operations and liquidity. Moreover, if we were to default on any debt obligation, the Nexus Innovation Centerlender could seek to foreclose on the campus of the University of Limerick.  any lien we may grant, in which event our equity securities could become worthless.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in notes accompanying the consolidated financial statements. The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Estimates are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements, and accordingly, actual results in future periods could differ from these estimates. Significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements apply critical accounting policies described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

We consider our recognition of revenues, accounting for the consolidation of operations, accounting for stock-based compensation, accounting for intangible assets and related impairment analyses, the allowance for doubtful accounts and accounting for equity transactions, and determination of going concern considerations, to be most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements.

Additionally, we consider certain judgments and estimates to be significant, including those relating to the timing of revenue recognition from the sales of perpetual licenses to certain Tier 1 and Tier 2 telecom entities, those relating to the determination of vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) for purposes of revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, useful lives for amortization of intangibles, determination of future cash flows associated with impairment testing of long-lived assets, determination of the fair value of stock options and other assessments of fair value. We base our estimates on historical experience, current conditions and on other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates and assumptions.

Together with our critical accounting policies set out above,forth below, our significant accounting policies are summarized in Note 2 of our audited financial statements as of December 31, 2015.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned. The Company establishes persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement for each type of revenue transaction based on a signed contract with the customer and that delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Software and licenses – revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to telecom entities is recognized at the date of invoices raised for installments due under the agreement, unless payment terms exceed one year, as described below, presuming all other relevant revenue recognition criteria are met. Revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to other entities is recognized over the agreed collection period.
Revenue for user licenses purchased by customers is recognized when the user license is delivered except as set out below.
Revenue for maintenance services is recognized over the period of delivery of the services except as set out below.
Effective as of October 1, 2014, the Company amended certain existing customer contracts with respect to the terms under which those customers would pay the Company for perpetual licenses, user licenses and maintenance services provided by the Company. Existing customer contracts required payments for maintenance services to be made based on contractually specified fixed amounts, which were billed regularly through September 2014. Through that date the Company recorded revenue for licenses and maintenance services when those licenses and services were billed. Revenue for user licenses was recorded as earned and revenue for maintenance services was recorded based on a fixed annual fee, billed quarterly. The Company has modified the payment terms under certain of those existing customer contracts by entering into Revenue Sharing agreements with those customers. Under the terms of these Revenue Sharing agreements, future payments will be due from the customer when that customer has generated revenue from its customers who subscribe to use the Horizon products and services. Effective October 1, 2014 revenue will be recorded by the Company when it invoices the customer for the revenue share due to the Company. Certain customers who entered into revenue sharing arrangements had outstanding balances due to the Company as of September 30, 2014, which balances were included in accounts receivable at that date. Payments received after September 30, 2014, from those customers under revenue sharing agreements have been applied to the customer’s existing accounts receivable balances first. For those customers having balances due at September 30, 2014, revenue related to perpetual and user licenses and maintenance services will be recorded only after existing accounts receivable balances are fully collected.
Revenues from Aishuo retail sales are recognized when the PSTN calls and texts are made

Where the Company has entered into a Revenue Share with the customer then all future revenue from granting of user licenses and for maintenance services will be recognized when the Company has delivered user licenses and is entitled to invoice.

We enter into arrangements in which a customer purchases a combination of software licenses, maintenance services and post-contract customer support (“PCS”). As a result, judgment is sometimes required to determine the appropriate accounting, including how the price should be allocated among the deliverable elements if there are multiple elements. PCS may include rights to upgrades, when and if available, support, updates and enhancements. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. Accordingly, the judgments involved in assessing the fair values of various elements of an agreement can impact the recognition of revenue in each period. Changes in the allocation of the sales price between deliverables might impact the timing of revenue recognition, but would not change the total revenue recognized on the contract. When elements such as software and services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, we allocate revenue to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, revenue is first allocated to the fair value of the undelivered elements and then allocated to the residual delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled. No sales arrangements to date include undelivered elements for which VSOE does not exist.

For purposes of revenue recognition for perpetual licenses, the Company considers payment terms exceeding one year as a presumption that the fee in the transaction is not fixed and determinable. This presumption however, may be overcome if persuasive evidence demonstrates that the Company has a business practice of extending payment terms and has been successful in collecting under the original terms, without providing any concessions. In doing so, the Company considers if the arrangement is sufficiently similar to historical arrangements in terms of similar customers and products is assessing whether there is evidence of a history of successful collection.

In order to determine the company’s historical experience is based on sufficiently similar arrangements, the Company considers the various factor including the types of customers and products, product life cycle, elements Included in the arrangement, length of payment terms and economics of license arrangement.

24

If the presumption cannot be overcome due to a lack of such evidence, revenue should be recognized as payments become due, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria has been met.

Revenue: Our revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $1.5 million as compared to approximately $5.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, a decrease of roughly $3.6 million or 70%. The decrease was primarily due to the shift in business to concentrate on the roll out of the B2C business in China through the Aishuo app. This roll out has gained us over 15 million downloads since it’s in launch in February 2015 through to the date of this report. It has greatly increased our exposure and overall recognition which allows us to take market share and acquire customers in what the Company believes will be an increasingly competitive user marketplace. During the quarter ended December 31, 2015 the revenue by Aishuo grew to just over $30,000 approximately as compared to $16,000 and $7,000 approximately in the third and second quarters in 2015 respectively. The management expects further growth in this sector of revenue.

The B2B business continues and one new global exchange was sold in the first quarter of 2015. We have converted most of the B2B partnerships into a revenue share basis and we are starting to see some payments from these operating companies. For customers with existing accounts receivable balances, revenue share basis payments are first applied to reduce their receivable balance before additional revenue is recorded. The strategic shift being executed by the Company is in-line with longer term development goals and management believes it will position the Company for a greater long-term shareholder value creation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Cost of Revenue: Cost of revenue

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for hardware was approximately $0.1 millionConvertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to approximately $0.4 million forderivative scope exception and it also simplifies the year ended December 31, 2014. Our cost of sales is primarily composed of the costs of ancillary hardware sold with the Horizon Platform together with the amortization of software development costs.  In addition, we recognize costs relating to the provision of hardware when a customer acquires such ancillary hardware.

Gross Profit:  Gross profit before the amortization charge for the year ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $1.4 million as compared to $4.7 millionfor the previous year.  Our gross profits decreased by 70% from 2014 to 2015.diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The decrease was mainly due to the reduced revenue as set forth above herein. However, management anticipate gross profit to increase with the growth of our business and the global smartphone market as well as our established expansion plan of entering into markets with high population density, high penetration of mobile phones, congested mobile cellular networks and high adoption of smartphones. 

Operating Expenses: Operating expenses including general and administrative expenses, allowance for doubtful accounts, depreciation and research and development expenses were approximately $9.5 million or 633% of sales for the year ended December 31, 2015, as compared to approximately $5.1 million, or 99% of sales for the same period in 2014, an increase of $4.4 million. The significant increase in expenses arose due to the additional provision for doubtful accounts of $5.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $0.3 million for the same period in 2014. Management determinedCompany early adopted this additional allowance was necessary in their fourth quarter analysis of collectability. This increase arose due to the change in collection policy on certain customers to receiving payments under a revenue share arrangement. As a result of this change the Company is unable to predict with certainty of the timing of long-term future receipts and has therefore decided to fully provide for the balances expected beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date. The provision will be reduced if customer payments are received against these provided balances. General and administrative expenses were approximately $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 as compared to approximately $4.2 million for the same period in 2014. The reduction was mainly due to the reduction in staff and office costs in Switzerland. The resources have been replaced in lower cost jurisdictions in Ireland and China.

Net Loss: Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2015 was approximately $10.9 million as compared to a net loss of $2.0 million for the same period in 2014.  Going forward, management expects to generate a growth in revenue based on the roll out of the products primarily in the China, Asia and Latin America regions. Going forward, management believes the Company will continue to grow the business and increase profitability if we are successful in selling the Horizon B2B solution to new telecommunications company customers globally and the B2C service to end users.

Non-Controlling Interest:

In the last quarter of 2015 the Company acquired full control of Horizon Network Technology Co. Ltd and as a result the Group is now wholly owned and controlled by One Horizon Group, Inc.

Foreign Currency Translation Adjustment:     Our reporting currency is the U.S. dollar. Our local currencies, Swiss Francs, Euro, British pounds and Chinese Renminbi, are our functional currencies. Results of operations and cash flow are translated at average exchange rates during the period, and assets and liabilities are translated at the unified exchange rate as quoted by http://www.oanda.com/currency/historical-rates/ at the end of the period. Translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the statement of shareholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in the results of operations as incurred.

Currency translation adjustments resulting from this process are included in accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of shareholders' equity and amounted to approximately $(99,000) for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Board Leadership Structure and the Board’s Role in Risk Oversight.

The Board of Directors currently does not have a Chairman. Our Chief Executive Officer acts as the Chairman of the Board. The Board determined that in the best interest of the Company the most effective leadership structure at this time is not to separate the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. A combined structure provides the Company with a single leader who represents the companyCompany to our stockholders, regulators, business partners and other stakeholders, among other reasons set forth below. Should the Board conclude otherwise, the Board will separate the roles and appoint an independent Chairman.

●  This structure creates efficiency in the preparation of the meeting agendas and related Board materials as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer works directly with those individuals preparing the necessary Board materials and is more connected to the overall daily operations of the Company. Agendas are also prepared with the permitted input of the full Board of Directors allowing for any concerns or risks of any individual director to be discussed as deemed appropriate. The Board believes that the Company has benefited from this structure, and Mr. Collin’sWhite’s continuation in the combined role of the Acting Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is in the best interest of the stockholders.

●  The Company believes that the combined structure is necessary and allows for efficient and effective oversight, given the Company’s relatively small size, its corporate strategy and focus.

The Board of Directors does not have a specific role in risk oversight of the Company. The Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and employees of the Company provide the Board of Directors with information regarding the Company’s risks.

Under Item 404 of SEC Regulation S-K, a related person transaction is any actual or proposed transaction, arrangement or relationship or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships, including those involving indebtedness not in the ordinary course of business, to which we or our subsidiaries were or are a party, or in which we or our subsidiaries were or are a participant, in which the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years and in which any of our directors, nominees for director, executive officers, beneficial owners of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities (a “significant shareholder”), or any member of the immediate family of any of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

We recognize that transactions between us and any of our Directors or Executives or with a third party in which one of our officers, directors or significant shareholders has an interest can present potential or actual conflicts of interest and create the appearance that our decisions are based on considerations other than the best interests of our Company and stockholders.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is charged with responsibility for reviewing, approving and overseeing any transaction between the Company and any related person (as defined in Item 404 of Regulation S-K), including the propriety and ethical implications of any such transactions, as reported or disclosed to the Committee by the independent auditors, employees, officers, members of the Board of Directors or otherwise, and to determine whether the terms of the transaction are not less favorable to us than could be obtained from an unaffiliated party.

The following includes a summary of transactions since January 1, 2021, or any currently proposed transaction, in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in all material respects,any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Critical Audit Matter Description

As disclosed in Notes 2, 4, and 5 to the financial positionstatements, the Company had various debt and equity-linked transactions where management evaluated required accounting considerations, significant estimates, and judgments around these instruments.

There is no current observable market for warrants and, as such, the Company used the Black-Scholes-Merton model to measure the fair value of One Horizon Group, Inc.the equity-linked instruments. As a result, a high degree of auditor judgment and effort was required in performing audit procedures to evaluate the accounting and valuations around these transactions.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed In the Audit

We obtained a listing of all debt and equity-linked transactions and management’s analysis supporting these transactions. We evaluated the accounting for these transactions based on agreements obtained to ensure these were properly recorded during the year.

We evaluated the valuation model that management selected to determine the estimated grant date fair value, and analyzed the underlying inputs used to estimate the fair value of the equity-linked instruments.

We have served as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.Company’s auditors since 2016.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company has incurred net losses and negative cash flows from operations which raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company has principally financed these losses from the sale of equity securities and the issuance of debt and convertible debt instruments.

To continue its operations the Company will be required to raise additional funds through various sources, such as equity and debt financings. While the Company believes it is probable that such financings could be secured, there can be no assurance the Company will be able to secure additional sources of funds to support its operations, or if such funds are available, that such additional financing will be sufficient to meet the Company’s needs or on terms acceptable to the Company.

At December 31, 2021, the Company had cash of approximately $147,000. Together with the Company’s Equity Line with MacRab LLC, and current operational plan and budget, the Company believes that it has the potential to generate sufficient cash to maintain operations through 2022. However, actual results could differ materially from the Company’s projections.

Covid-19

The outbreak of the novel strain of coronavirus, specifically identified as “COVID- 19”, has resulted in governments worldwide enacting emergency measures to combat the spread of the virus. These measures, which include the implementation of travel bans, self-imposed quarantine periods and social distancing, have caused material disruption to businesses globally resulting in an economic slowdown. Global equity markets have experienced significant volatility and weakness. Governments and central banks have reacted with significant monetary and fiscal interventions designed to stabilize economic conditions. The duration and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak is unknown at this time, as is the efficacy of the government and central bank interventions. It is not possible to reliably estimate the length and severity of these developments and the impact on the financial results and condition of the Company and its operations in future periods.

Basis of Accounting and Presentation

These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United StatesGAAP.

Foreign Currency Translation

The reporting currency of the Company is the United StatesU.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities of operations other than those denominated in U.S. dollars, primarily in Switzerland,Singapore, the United Kingdom and China, are translated into United StatesU.S. dollars at the rate of exchange at the balance sheet date. Revenues and expenses are translated at the average rate of exchange throughout the period. Gains or losses from these translations are reported as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) until all or a part of the investment in the subsidiaries is sold or liquidated. The translation adjustments do not recognize the effect of income tax because the Company expects to reinvest the amounts indefinitely in operations.

Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange-rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in general and administrative expenses.

F-7

Cash

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include bank demand deposit accounts and highly liquid short termshort-term investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash consists of checking accounts held at financial institutions in the U.S. and the United Kingdom Switzerland, Ireland, Singapore, Hong Kong and China which, at times, balances may exceed insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these balances, and management believes the credit risk to be minimal.

Accounts Receivable, Concentrations and Revenue Recognition

Performance Obligations - A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account under the revenue recognition standard. The transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. The Company’s contracts do not typically have variable consideration that needs to be considered when the contract consideration is allocated to each performance obligation.

Revenue Recognition – We recognize revenues from each business segment as described below:

— Continued operations

 11Touchpoint – Revenue for the sale of a software license is recognized when the customer has use of the services and has access to use the software. Revenue from the usage of software is shared between the customer and Touchpoint in accordance with an operator agreement. The Company also generates revenue through the development and deployment of customized customer apps based on its existing technologies. Based on the terms of the Operator Agreements, the Company recognizes revenue upon approval of the app and related design documents by the customer. Included within deferred revenue is amounts billed and/or collected from customer prior to achieving customer approval. The Company also recognizes revenue through hosting and maintenance fees billed to customers under the Operator Agreements and is eligible to receive a portion of revenues generated through the customer app, as defined. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received revenues from customer app’s totaling $8,800
    
  2Air Race Limited – There was no Revenue for ARL during the year ending December 31, 2021. ARL is expected to start generating revenue in 2022 when the air race series is expected to start.

 

Accounts Receivable— Discontinued operations

Accounts receivable result primarily from sale of software and licenses to customers and are recorded at their principal amounts. The categories of sales and receivables and their terms of payment are as follows:

a)  Master License Agreement (“Agreement”) deposits – these deposits are payable in accordance with the terms of the Agreement. The deposits are invoiced1Love Media House derived income from recording and video services. Income was recognized when the Agreement is signed providingrecording and video services were performed, and the deposits are due to be received within 12 months. Whenfinal customer product was delivered and the deposits underpoint at which the Agreement are due in later periods, the later deposits are invoiced when they are due.performance obligation were satisfied. These revenues were non-refundable.

b)  

Maintenance and operational fees and end user licenses fees– these charges are invoiced and recognized when a customer is due to pay them under the Agreement. In some Agreements, the charges are invoiced and payable when the service/licenses have been delivered by the Company. In the other cases, the Company has agreed to payments on revenue share basis whereby the Company will receive an agreed proportion of a customer’s revenue from its operation of the Horizon service. On revenue share basis, the income for maintenance and operational fees together with end user licenses fees are not recognized until these charges are invoiced and due. In September 2014, the Company reported that it had converted a significant number of its customers to a revenue share basis of collection (prior revenue was recognized in accordance with revenue recognition policies - see note in Revenue Recognition) and the balance outstanding at the point of conversion for those customers will be collected prior to the commencement of recognizing income on revenue share basis. In addition, on revenue share basis, the Company also offers a hosted service where a customer can buy vouchers for resale of minutes to be used over the Public Service Telephone Network ("PTSN"). These voucher sales are recognized when invoiced and payment terms are 30 days.

Accounts receivable balances from certain customers arose from revenue recognised prior to September 30, 2014. The effective date as of which many of the company’s customers entered into revenue sharing arrangements. Those revenue sharing arrangements changed the basis under which the customers would pay their existing balances, as described, effective starting as early as October 1, 2014. 

Revenue that has been recognized under category b), prior to the Company’s conversion of Tier 2 customers to revenue share arrangements on October 1, 2014, was based on invoices provided to customers as payments became due. As of December 31, 2015, a significant portion of those receivables remain uncollected, which management attributes in part to the Company’s conversion of those customers to a revenue share arrangement. Considering the effects of the revenue share arrangements on collection of accounts receivable and the timing of those collections, along with other factors, management has estimated the amounts they expect to collect within 12 months of the balance sheet date from those customers operating under revenue share arrangements. The portion of the receivable balance expected to be received in more than 12 months is considered a non-current receivable. The Company maintains its belief that current and non-current accounts receivable continue to be due from their customers. Further, management is of the belief that its customers are contractually obligated to pay the full amount due as provided under the Master License Agreements executed by each of its customers. Regardless, management has considered the collectability of those receivables classified as long-term in terms of providing an appropriate allowance for the slow-paying nature of these accounts. For receivables classified as long-term, management believes there is general uncertainty in the collection of those balances and the timing of those collections, taken as a whole, and has increased the general provision for doubtful accounts to cover accounts receivable balances expected to be collected beyond 12 months from the balance sheet date. The slow-pay uncertainties arise from a number of factors, including the effects of revenue share arrangements, the extended time customers are talking to generate significant revenue under revenue share arrangements, and general technological changes in the industry. 

c)  Software consultancy fees – When customers require customization of software, the Company quotes a flat project amount or a daily rate for the work. When a Customer has confirmed their approval of the quote and the work has been undertaken, the Company will invoice consultancy fee and recognize the revenue. The terms of payment are fixed terms and normally 30 days of the date of the invoice.

d)  Hardware fees– Hardware fees represent the fees the Company charges for the supply of ancillary equipment which customers occasionally ask us to source and supply. The Company quotes the price prior to the delivery and upon delivery, invoices the customer with payment due within stated terms, normally 30 days from the date of the invoice.

When necessary, the Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts that is based on a review of outstanding receivables, historical collection information, and current economic conditions. The Company has strong collection history in all categories above except category b), and generally does not believe that an allowance for doubtful accounts for these categories except category b) is necessary. For receivables in category b), when the Company becomes aware of a customer’s inability to meet its financial obligations, such as in the case of bankruptcy or deterioration in the customer’s operating results, financial position, or credit rating, the Company records a specific reserve for bad debts to reduce the related receivable to the amount it believes to be collectable. The Company records a general allowance for doubtful collections for those accounts receivable considered to be slow paying, on the basis described above for accounts receivable balances of customers under category (b) above. There was an allowance of $6,055,000 and $492,000 for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Receivables are generally unsecured. Account balances are charged off against the allowance when the Company determines that certain receivable will probably not be recovered. The Company does not have off-balance sheet credit exposure related to its customers. As of December 31, 20152021 and December 31, 2014,2020, two customers and five customers respectively, accounted for 24% and 28%, respectively,100% of the accounts receivable balance.

When a portion Two customers accounted for 94% of the receivable balances of certainrevenue for the year ended December 31, 2021, and six customers under category (b) above, is expected to be received in more than 12 months, the relevant balances are shown as a non current asset. Due to an uncertainty in the timingaccounted for 100% of the receipt of these balancesrevenue for the Company has decided to provide a general provision covering these balances. The Company retains it belief that the balances are recoverable and when recovery is achieved the appropriate reduction in the general provision will be shown.

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment is primarily comprised of leasehold property improvements, motor vehicles and equipment that are recorded at cost and depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as follows: motor vehicles – 5 years, equipment – between 3 and 5 years, leasehold property improvements, over the lesser of the estimated remaining useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease.

Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred.  Expenditures that substantially increase the useful lives of existing assets are capitalized.

Investment

Cost-based investments includes investments in companies for which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence. The cost-based investments are analyzed for impairment based on current market and other factors relevant to the investments. No impairment was considered necessary as ofyear ended December 31, 2015 or 2014. As of December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had $18,000 and $19,000 respectively of cost-based investments on our balance sheet.2020.

Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is defined as the exchange price that will be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal.  Valuation techniques used to measure fair value should maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.  To measure fair value, the Company uses the following fair value hierarchy based on three levels of inputs, of which the first two are considered to be observable and the third unobservable:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 – Inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets include software development costs and customer listsacquired technology and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of ranging from four to five years for customer lists and ten years for software development. years. The Company periodically evaluates whether changes have occurred that would require revision of the remaining estimated useful life. The Company performs periodic reviews of its capitalized intangible assets to determine if the assets have continuing value to the Company.

F-8

F-12

 

 

The Company expenses software development costs as incurred until technological feasibility has been established, at which time those costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release to customers. Judgement is required in determining when technological feasibility of a product is established. The Company has determined that after technological feasibility for software products is reached, the Company continues to address all high risk development issues through coding and testing prior to the release of the products to customers. The amortization of these costs is included in cost of revenue over the estimated life of the products.

During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 software development costs of $1,063,000 and $1,122,000, respectively, have been capitalized.

Impairment of Other Long-Lived Assets

The Company evaluates the recoverability of its property and equipment and other long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. An impairment loss is recognized when the net book value of such assets exceeds the estimated future undiscounted cash flows attributed to the assets or the business to which the assets relate. Impairment losses, if any, are measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the assets.  During the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 the Company identified no impairment losses related to the Company’s long-lived assets.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes revenue when it is realized or realizable and earned.  The Company establishes persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement for each type of revenue transaction based on a signed contract with the customer and that delivery has occurred or services have been rendered, price is fixed and determinable, and collectability is reasonably assured.

Software and licenses – revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to telecom entities is recognized at the date of invoices raised for installments due under the agreement, unless payment terms exceed one year, as described below, presuming all other relevant revenue recognition criteria are met. Revenue from sales of perpetual licenses to other entities is recognized over the agreed collection period
Revenue for user licenses purchased by customers is recognized when the user license is delivered except as set out below.
Revenue for maintenance services is recognized over the period of delivery of the services except as set out below.
Effective as of October 1, 2014, the Company amended certain existing customer contracts with respect to the terms under which those customers would pay the Company for perpetual licenses, user licenses and maintenance services provided by the Company. Existing customer contracts required payments for maintenance services to be made based on contractually specified fixed amounts, which were billed regularly through September 2014. Through that date the Company recorded revenue for licenses and maintenance services when those licenses and services were billed. Revenue for user licenses was recorded as earned and revenue for maintenance services was recorded based on a fixed annual fee, billed quarterly. The Company has modified the payment terms under certain of those existing customer contracts by entering into Revenue Sharing agreements with those customers. Under the terms of these Revenue Sharing agreements, future payments will be due from the customer when that customer has generated revenue from its customers who subscribe to use the Horizon products and services. Effective October 1, 2014 revenue will be recorded by the Company when it invoices the customer for the revenue share due to the Company. Certain customers who entered into revenue sharing arrangements had outstanding balances due to the Company as of September 30, 2014, which balances were included in accounts receivable at that date. Payments received after September 30, 2014, from those customers under revenue sharing agreements have been applied to the customer’s existing accounts receivable balances first. For those customers having balances due at September 30, 2014, revenue related to perpetual and user licenses and maintenance services will be recorded only after existing accounts receivable balances are fully collected.
Revenues from Aishuo retail sales are recognized when the PSTN calls and texts are made by the customer

Where the Company has entered into a Revenue Share with the customer, then all future revenue from granting of user licenses and for maintenance services will be recognized when the Company has delivered user licenses and is entitled to invoice.

The Company enters into arrangements in which a customer purchases a combination of software licenses, maintenance services and post-contract customer support (“PCS”). As a result, judgment is sometimes required to determine the appropriate accounting, including how the price should be allocated among the deliverable elements if there are multiple elements. PCS may include rights to upgrades, when and if available, support, updates and enhancements. When vendor specific objective evidence (“VSOE”) of fair value exists for all elements in a multiple element arrangement, revenue is allocated to each element based on the relative fair value of each of the elements. VSOE of fair value is established by the price charged when the same element is sold separately. Accordingly, the judgments involved in assessing the fair values of various elements of an agreement can impact the recognition of revenue in each period. Changes in the allocation of the sales price between deliverables might impact the timing of revenue recognition, but would not change the total revenue recognized on the contract. When elements such as software and services are contained in a single arrangement, or in related arrangements with the same customer, we allocate revenue to each element based on its relative fair value, provided that such element meets the criteria for treatment as a separate unit of accounting. In the absence of fair value for a delivered element, revenue is first allocated to the fair value of the undelivered elements and then allocated to the residual delivered elements. In the absence of fair value for an undelivered element, the arrangement is accounted for as a single unit of accounting, resulting in a delay of revenue recognition for the delivered elements until the undelivered elements are fulfilled. No sales arrangements to date include undelivered elements for which VSOE does not exist.

For purposes of revenue recognition for perpetual licenses, the Company considers payment terms exceeding one year as a presumption that the fee in the transaction is not fixed and determinable.   This presumption however, may be overcome if persuasive evidence demonstrates that the Company has a business practice of extending payment terms and has been successful in collecting under the original terms, without providing any concessions.  In doing so, the Company considers if the arrangement is sufficiently similar to historical arrangements in terms of similar customers and products is assessing whether there is evidence of a history of successful collection.

In order to determine the company’s historical experience is based on sufficiently similar arrangements, the Company considers the various factor including the types of customers and products, product life cycle, elements Included in the arrangement, length of payment terms and economics of license arrangement.

F-9

If the presumption cannot be overcome due to a lack of such evidence, revenue should be recognized as payments become due, assuming all other revenue recognition criteria has been met.

During 2015 78% of the Company’s revenue was concentrated in the hands of two major customers.

Leases

Leases are classified as finance leases whenever the terms of the lease transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee. All other leases are classified as operating leases.

Assets held under finance leases are recognized as assets of the Company at their fair value or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments, each determined at the inception of the lease. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet as finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance charges and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance charges are charged directly against income.

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged to income on a straight-line basis over the term of the relevant lease.

Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to enter into an operating lease are also spread on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Advertising Expenses

It is the Company’s policy to expense advertising costs as incurred. Advertising costs totaling $30,000 were incurred during the year ended December 31, 2015 (2014: $0).

Research and Development Expenses

Research and development expenses include all direct costs, primarily salaries for Company personnel and outside consultants, related to the development of new products, significant enhancements to existing products, and the portion of costs of development of internal-use software required to be expensed. Research and development costs are charged to operations as incurred with the exception of those software development costs that may qualify for capitalization. The Company incurred research and development costs in the amount of $579,000 and $379,000 in the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Debt Issue Costs

Debt issue costs related to long-term debt are capitalized and amortized over the term of the related debt using the effective interest method.

Income Taxes

Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on temporary differences between financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities, operating loss, and tax credit carryforwards, and are measured using the enacted income tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Realization of certain deferred income tax assets is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in the appropriate jurisdiction. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce deferred income tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized. The initial recording and any subsequent changes to valuation allowances are based on a number of factors (positive and negative evidence). The Company considers its actual historical results to have a stronger weight than other, more subjective, indicators when considering whether to establish or reduce a valuation allowance.

The Company continually evaluates its uncertain income tax positions and may record a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return.  Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively.

F-10

Because tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations, significant judgment is required.  As a result, the Company makes certain estimates and assumptions in: (1) calculating its income tax expense, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities; (2) determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets; and (3) evaluating the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as the interest and penalties related to such uncertain tax positions.  The Company’s estimates and assumptions may differ significantly from tax benefits ultimately realized.

Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is calculated by dividing the net loss attributable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period. Diluted loss per share takes into consideration common shares outstanding (computed under basic loss per share) and potentially dilutive securities. For the years ended December 31, 20152021 and 2014,2020, outstanding stock options, warrants and shares underlying convertible debt are antidilutive because of net losses, and as such, their effect haswas not been included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share. Common shares issuable are considered outstanding as of the original approval date for purposes of earnings per share computations.

Stock Purchase Warrants

The Company accounts for the issuance of common stock purchase warrants issued in connection with the equity and debt offerings in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). The fair value of stock purchase warrants is estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model. The determination of the fair value of stock purchase warrants is affected by the Company’s stock price, as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables. Risk free interest rates are based upon U.S. Treasury rates appropriate for the expected term of each award. Expected volatility rates are based primarily on the volatility rates of a set of guideline companies, which consist of public and recently public software companies. The assumed dividend yield is zero, as the Company does not expect to declare any dividends in the foreseeable future. The term of warrants granted is based on the expiration date of each warrant.

 

Convertible Notes

The Company reviews the terms of convertible debt, equity instruments, and other financing arrangements to determine whether there are embedded derivative instruments, including embedded conversion options that are required to be bifurcated and accounted for separately. In connection with the convertible debt agreements, the Company issued shares of common stock and common stock warrants. The Company has allocated the net proceeds from the debt agreements to the estimated fair value of these equity-linked instruments, which is recorded as a discount to the related debt balances. The Company amortizes the debt discount over the contractual maturity of the related debt agreements.

Property, Plant and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided for using straight-line methods, in amounts sufficient to charge the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives. In October 2021, ARL began purchasing racing equipment to utilize in future racing events that has not yet been placed in service.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

Other comprehensive income (loss), as defined, includes net income (loss), foreign currency translation adjustment, and all changes in equity (net assets) during a period from non-owner sources. To date, the Company has not had any significant transactions that are required to be reported in other comprehensive income (loss), except for foreign currency translation adjustments.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the fiscal year. The Company makes estimates for, among other items, useful lives for depreciation and amortization, determination of future cash flows associated with impairment testing for long-lived assets, determination of the fair value of stock options and warrants, valuation allowance for deferred tax assets, allowances for doubtful accounts, and potential income tax assessments and other contingencies. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience, current conditions, and other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

F-13

 

Financial Instruments

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

The carrying amounts of our financial assets and liabilities such as cash, current accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair values based on level 1 inputs in the fair value hierarchy because of the short maturity of these instruments. Due to the conversion features and other terms, it is not practical to estimate the fair value of amounts due to related parties and long term debt.

Share-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for share-based awards at fair value on date of grant and recognizes compensation over the service period for awards expected to vest.  The fair value of stock options is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, which includes subjective judgements about the expected life of the awards, forfeiture rates and stock price volatility. The Company issues new shares of common stock to satisfy exercises and vesting of awards, granted under our stock plans.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Updates (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. In August 2015, the FASB issued an update to defer the effective date of this update by one year. The updated standard becomes effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, but allows the Company to adopt the standard one year earlier if it so chooses. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-17,Income Taxes – Balance Sheet Reclassification of Deferred Taxes (Topic 740).  This ASU requires that deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in a classified statement of financial position.  The current requirement that deferred tax liabilities and assets of a tax-paying component of an entity be offset and presented as a single amount is not affected by the amendments in this update.  The amendments in this update are effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those annual periods.  Early adoption is permitted and the amendments may be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented.   

In April 2015,2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of 2020-06, Debt—Debt Issuance Costs,with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which amends ASC 835-30, Interest – Imputation of Interest. This ASU requires that debt issuance costs related to borrowings be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the borrowing. This treatment is consistent with debt discounts.simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. The ASU does not affectremoves certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the amount or timingderivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. The Company early adopted this ASU as of expensesJanuary 1, 2021 and because the beneficial conversion feature is eliminated by this guidance, there were no beneficial conversion features recorded for debt issuance costs. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscalcurrent year 2017 and will be applied retrospectively. The adoption will not have a material effect on the company's consolidated financial statements.financings.

In August 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-15, Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements, which amends ASC 835-30, Interest – Imputation of Interest. This ASU clarifies the presentation and subsequent measurement of debt issuance costs associated with lines of credit. These costs may be presented as an asset and amortized ratably over the term of the line of credit arrangement, regardless of whether there are outstanding borrowings on the arrangement. The effective date will be the first quarter of fiscal year 2017 and will be applied retrospectively. The adoption will not have a material effect on the company's consolidated financial statements.

In 2015, the FASB issued new guidance related to consolidations. The new standard amends the guidelines for determining whether certain legal entities should be consolidated and reduces the number of consolidation models. The new standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. We are evaluating the impact, if any, of adopting this new accounting guidance on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 5.  3. Intangible Assets

As a result of the pandemic and its impact on our ability to conduct customer marketing efforts and the inherent uncertainties in the entertainment and software industries within the United Kingdom and the United States, the Company has updated its short-term projections. As a result of these re-evaluations, during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded an impairment loss of approximately $0.4 million and $0.5 million respectively. While the Company believes its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, variations from those estimates could produce materially different results.

Intangible assets consist primarily of software development costs and customer and reseller relationships which are amortized over the estimated useful life, generally on a straight-line basis with the exception of customer relationships, which are generally amortized over the greater of straight-line or the related asset’s pattern of economic benefit. (infollowing (in thousands)

Note 7.  Convertible Debenture

In December 2014, the Company closed a private placement of $3,500,000 under Regulation S whereby we issued to an investor a convertible debenture that is convertible into 1,555,556 shares of Common Stock, Class C Warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock, Class D Warrant to purchase 388,889 shares of Common Stock and the potential for performance warrants. The unsecured convertible debenture is for a term of three years from the date of issue and has an interest rate of 8% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears in either cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock. The Company has the right to repurchase the convertible debenture upon notice at any time after the first twelve months.as follows:

80,352,236 shares of common stock, with a fair value of $626,811, for conversion of convertible promissory notes.

● 20,166,667 shares of common stock in exchange for 20,166,667 warrants with an incremental fair value totaling $124,387.

 

The Class C and Class D warrants have a term of four years and are each entitled to purchase one-fourth of a share of common stock. In total the Company issued 388,889 Class C warrants and 388,889 Class D warrants.

Performance Warrants associated with the convertible debenture were potentially issuable and exercisable based on the Company’s annual reported subscriber numbers, twenty four (24) months after December 22, 2014, as is reflected in our 2014 Form 10-K. In the first quarter of 2016 the Company announced it has achieved the required number subscriber downloads and therefore the additional performance warrants are not issuable by the Company.

Proceeds received in 2014 from the convertible debentures were allocated between the convertible debenture and warrants based on their relative fair values. The resulting discount for the warrants is amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debentures. The relative fair value of Class C and Class D warrants resulted in a discount of $598,500 at the date of issuance. After allocating a portion of the proceeds to the warrants, the effective conversion price of the convertible debentures was determined to result in a beneficial conversion feature. The beneficial conversion feature has a relative fair value of $302,994 at the date of issuance and is being amortized over the life of the convertible debenture. The beneficial conversion feature discount is amortized using the effective interest method over the life of the debentures. During the year ended December 31, 2015 amortization of2020, the debt discount in the amount of $199,233 and the amortization of the beneficial conversion feature in the amount of $100,980 are included in interest expense in the consolidated statement of operations.

Note 11.  7. Income Taxes

Income tax benefit of $20,000 and $210,000 in 2015 and 2014, respectively, is recognized for the impact of deferred tax assets and liabilities, which represent consequences of events that have been recognized differently in the financial statements under GAAP than for tax purposes.

The difference between the U.S.applicable statutory federal tax rate of 34% in 2015 and 2014rates and the provision for income tax recorded by the Company is primarily attributable to the change in the Company’s valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets and to a lesser extent to the tax rate differential ontreatment of certain gains and losses in foreign countries.recorded under GAAP.

Loss from operations before income taxes consisted of the following(in thousands):

Total $(10,944) $(2,179)

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had federal net operating losses of $3.5 million available for future deduction from taxable income derived in the United States. The Company’s United Kingdom subsidiary has non-capital losses of approximately $13.3 million available for future deductions from taxable income derived in the United Kingdom, which do not expire. The potential benefit of net operating loss carryforwards has not been recognized in the combinedconsolidated financial statements since the Company cannot determine that it is more likely than not that such benefit will be utilized in future years. The tax years 2006 through 20142021 remain open to examination by federal authorities and otherin certain jurisdictions in which the Company operates namely United Kingdom, Switzerland, Ireland, China and Hong Kong.

The Company continually evaluates its uncertain income tax positions and may record a liability for any unrecognized tax benefits resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in an income tax return. Estimated interest and penalties are recorded as a component of interest expense and other expense, respectively.

Because tax laws are complex and subject to different interpretations, significant judgment is required. As a result, the Company makes certain estimates and assumptions in: (1) calculating its income tax expense, deferred tax assets, and deferred tax liabilities; (2) determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets; and (3) evaluating the amount of unrecognized tax benefits, as well as the interest and penalties related to such uncertain tax positions. The increaseCompany’s estimates and assumptions may differ significantly from tax benefits ultimately realized. Historically, the Company has not filed income tax returns and the related required informational filings in the valuation allowanceU.S. Certain informational filings if not filed contain penalties. The Company is currently addressing this issue with advisors to determine the amount of potential payments due. Given the complexity of the issue the Company is unable to quantify a range of potential loss. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets in respect of this matter. However, such potential penalties may be material to the Company’s financial statements.

Legal Proceedings

In 2012, we sold certain former subsidiaries engaged in provision of satellite service in 2012 to Broadband Satellite Services (“BSS”), a company incorporated under laws of England and Wales. Horizon Globex, a company incorporated in Switzerland and a subsidiary of us, had provided these subsidiary companies with software and IT services.  In connection with its acquisition of our former subsidiary companies, BSS entered into three agreements with Horizon Globex pursuant to which BSS continued to use Horizon Globex to supply software and IT services.  Notwithstanding the fact that Horizon Globex has provided such ongoing software and IT services, BSS has failed to pay our fees pursuant to the agreements.  As a result, on December 23, 2014, we initiated legal proceedings in the High Court, Queens Bench Division, Commercial Court No. 2014 folio 1560 against BSS in the United Kingdom to collect such fees in the amount of $640,000.  Subsequently, BSS asserted counter claims in the amount of $5.8 million, alleging among other claims, civil fraud in connection with the sale of subsidiary companies.   Based on the timing of these claims, which were never raised until we filed our action against BSS, it is our position that these claims are specious and represent nothing more than an attempt to improve BSS's negotiating position with regard to our legitimate claims against it.   As a result, we plan to continue to carry out our claims against BSS to the fullest extent possible and to defend BSS's counter-claims vigorously.  We note further that several of BSS's counter claims may be time barred by applicable sections of the contracts and plan to assert the same as an affirmative defense to such counter claim. Notwithstanding our views with regard to our claims against BSS and BSS's counterclaims, litigation is by its nature unpredictable and therefore we cannot guarantee with certainty the outcome of our dispute with BSS.
