LOOP MEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

JUNE 30,DECEMBER 31, 2022

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – BUSINESS

Loop Media, Inc. is, a Nevada corporation. We were incorporated undercorporation, (collectively, “Loop Media,” the laws of the State of Nevada on May 11, 2015.

We are“Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) is a multichannel digital video platform media company that uses marketing technology, or “MarTech,” to generate our revenue and offer our services. Our technology and vast library of videos and licensed content enable us to curate and distribute short-form videos to out-of-home (“OOH”) dining, hospitality, retail, convenience stores and other locations and venues to enable them to inform, entertain and engage their customers. Our technology provides third-party advertisers with a targeted marketing and promotional tool for their products and services and, in certain instances, allows us to measure the number of potential viewers of such advertising and promotional materials. We also allow our OOH customersclients to access our service without advertisements by paying a monthly subscription fee. In addition to providing services to OOH venue operators, we currently provide our services direct to consumers (“D2C”) in their homes on connected TVs (“CTVs”) and on their mobile devices.

We offer self-curatedhand-curated music video content licensed from major and independent record labels, including Universal Music Group (“Universal”), Sony Music Entertainment (“Sony”), and Warner Music Group (“Warner” and collectively with Universal and Sony, the “Music Labels”), as well as non-music video content, which is predominantly licensed or acquired from third parties, including action sports clips, drone and atmospheric footage, trivia, news headlines, lifestyle channels and kid-friendly videos, as well as movie, television and video game trailers, kid-friendly videos, viral videos, drone footage, news headlines, and lifestyle and atmospheric channels.amongst other content. We distribute our content and advertising inventory to digital screens located in OOH locations primarily through (i) our owned and operated platform (“O(the “O&O Network”Platform”) of Loop Media-designed “small-box” streaming Android media players (“Loop Players”) and legacy ScreenPlay computers and (ii) through screens on digital networksplatforms owned and operated by third parties (“Partner Network”,(each a “Partner Platform” and collectively, the “Partner Platforms,” and together with the O&O Network,Platform, the “Loop Network”Platform”). We moved to an advertising-based model and ramped up distribution of Loop Players for our O&O Network starting in early 2021. As of June 30,December 31, 2022, we had 12,584 quarterly active units (“QAUs”).26,903 QAUs (described below) operating on our O&O Platform. We launched our Partner NetworkPlatforms business beginning in early May 2022 with one partner on approximately 5,00017,000 of the partner’s screens, and we rolled outare in the process of finalizing an additional approximately 13,500 screens in a second Partner Platform for a total of approximately 30,500 screens across our Partner Platforms in the near term.  We expect to begin earning revenue on these additional screens in our second fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023.  Our legacy subscription-based business complements these newer businesses.

We define an “active unit” as (i) an ad-supported Loop Player (or DOOH location using our ad- supported service through our “Loop for Business” application or using an DOOH venue-owned computer screening our content) that is online, used on our O&O Platform, playing content, and has checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in the 90-day period or (ii) a DOOH location customer using our subscription service on our O&O Platform at any time during the 90-day period. We use “QAU” to refer to the remaining 12,000number of such active units during such period.  We do not count towards our QAUs any Loop Players or screens in that network as of mid-May 2022, remaining at approximately that level as of early-August 2022. Our legacy businesses, includingused on our content subscription-based business and our CTV business, complement these newer businesses.Partner Platform.

Going concernLiquidity and management’s plansplan

AsIn accordance with Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2014-15, Presentation of June 30, 2022, we had cash of $709,725 and an accumulated deficit of ($81,763,526). DuringFinancial Statements – Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40), our management evaluates whether there are conditions or events, considered in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, we used net cash in operating activities of $(8,832,956). We have incurred net losses since inception. These conditionsaggregate, that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within one year fromafter the issuance date of these consolidated financial statements.

Our primary source of operating funds since inception has been cash proceeds from debt and equity financing transactions. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to generate sufficient revenue and our ability to raise additional funds by way of our debt and equity financing efforts.

The accompanying unauditedthat the consolidated financial statements are issued.

Although it is difficult to predict our liquidity requirements, as of December 31, 2022, based upon our current operating plan, we believe that we will have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplatessufficient cash to meet our projected operating requirements for at least the realizationnext twelve months following the issuance of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. These unauditedfirst quarter consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments relating tobased on the recoverybalance of cash and the recorded assets or classification of the liabilities that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on management’s further implementation of our ongoing and strategic plans, which include continuing to raise funds through equity and/or debt raises.  If we are unable to raise adequate funds, certain aspects of the ongoing and strategic plans may require modification. Management is in the process of identifying sources of capital via strategic partnerships, debt refinancing and equity investments through one or more private placements.projected cash flows from operations.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Interim Financial Statements

The following (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2021,2022, which has been derived from our audited financial statements, and (b) our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Act of 1933. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2022.2023.

These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended September 30, 2021,2022, included in our Annual Report on Form 10-KT10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on January 21,December 20, 2022.

Basis of presentation

The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, EON Media Group Pte. Ltd. and Retail Media TV, Inc. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with US GAAP. All inter-company transactions and balances have been eliminated on consolidation.

Use of estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions used in the revenue recognition of performance obligations, allowance for doubtful accounts, fair value of stock-based compensation the fair value of other equityawards, income taxes and debt instruments, fair value of intangible assets and recoverability of license content assets.

Business combinations

We account for business acquisitions under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations. The total purchase consideration for an acquisition is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities assumed on the acquisition date. Costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. Identifiable assets (including intangible assets), liabilities assumed (including contingent liabilities) and noncontrolling interests in an acquisition are measured initially at their fair values on the acquisition date. We recognize goodwill if the fair value of the total purchase consideration and any noncontrolling interest is in excess of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and the liabilities assumed. The results of operations of the acquired business are included in the consolidated financial statements beginning on the acquisition date.going concern.  

Segment reporting

We report as 1one reportable segment because we do not have more than 1one operating segment. Our business activities, revenues and expenses are evaluated by management as 1one reportable segment.

Cash

Cash and cash equivalents include all highly liquid monetary instruments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased. These investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash deposits. We maintain our cash in institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”). At times, our cash and cash equivalent balances may be

Accounts receivable

Accounts receivable represent amounts due from customers. We assess the collectability of receivables on an ongoing basis. A provision for the impairment of receivables involves significant management judgment and includes the review of individual receivables based on individual customers, current economic trends and analysis of historical bad debts. As of June 30,December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2021,2022, we had recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $445,946$604,920 and $426,813,$646,013, respectively.

Concentration of credit risk

During the nine-monthsthree-months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, we had 3three customers which each individually comprised greater than 10% of net revenue. These customers represented 25%16%, 20%,15% and 11% respectively. NaNNo other customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenue during the periods presented.

As of June 30,December 31, 2022, 3three customers accounted for a total of 52%39% of our accounts receivable balance or 24%14%, 18%14%, and 10%11%, respectively. NaNNo other customer accounted for more than 10% of total accounts receivable.

We grant credit in the normal course of business to our customers. Periodically, we review past due accounts and make decisions about future credit on a customer-by-customer basis. Credit risk is the risk that one party to a financial instrument will cause a loss for the other party by failing to discharge an obligation.

Our concentrationInventory

Inventories are valued at the lower of credit risk was not significant ascost or net realizable value. We purchase inventory from a vendor and all inventory purchased is deemed finished goods. Cost is determined using the first-in-first-out basis for finished goods. Net realizable value is determined on the basis of June 30,anticipated sales proceeds less the estimated selling expenses. Management compares the cost of inventories with the net realizable value and an allowance is made to write down inventories to net realizable value, if lower. As of December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2021.2022, we had recorded no valuation allowance.

License Content AssetPrepaid expenses

On January 1, 2020, we adoptedExpenditures paid in one accounting period which will not be consumed until a future period such as insurance premiums and annual subscription fees are accounted for on the guidance in ASU 2019-02, Entertainment—Films—Other Assets—Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20) and Entertainment—Broadcasters—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 920-350): Improvementsbalance sheet as a prepaid expense. When the asset is eventually consumed, it is charged to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials, on a prospective basis. expense.

Content Assets

We capitalize the fixed content fees and our corresponding liability when the license period begins, the cost of the content is known, and the content is accepted and available for streaming. If the licensing fee is not determinable or reasonably estimable, no asset or liability is recorded, and licensing costs are expensed as incurred. We amortize licensed content assets into cost of revenue, using the straight-line method over the contractual period of availability. The liability is paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the arrangement. Internally-developed content costs are capitalized in the same manner as licensed content costs, when the cost of the content is known and the content is ready and available for streaming. We amortize internally-developed content assets into cost of revenue, using the straight-line method over the estimated period of streaming.

Long-lived assets

We evaluate the recoverability of long-lived assets, including intangible assets, for impairment when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Conditions that would necessitate an impairment assessment include a significant decline in the observable market value of an asset, a significant change in the extent or manner that an asset is used, or a significant adverse change that would indicate that the carrying amount of an asset or group of assets is not recoverable. For long-lived assets to be held and used, we recognize an impairment loss only if their carrying amount is not recoverable through the undiscounted cash flows. The impairment

8

Table of Contents

loss is based on the difference between the carrying amount and estimated fair value as determined by discounted future cash flows. Our finite long-lived intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, which range from two to nine years.

Property and equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method over the asset’s estimated useful life. TheOur capitalization policy for the company is to capitalize property and equipment purchases greater than $3,000, as well as internally-developed software enhancements. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. When retired or otherwise disposed, the related carrying value and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and the net difference less any amount realized from disposition is reflected in earnings.

Loop players are capitalized as fixed assets and depreciated over the estimated period of use.

Goodwill and other intangible assets

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill and other intangible assets determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but are subject to impairment tests. We conduct our annual impairment tests or whenever events and changes in circumstances suggest that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. We conducted the annual impairment test on September 30, 2021.

When evaluating goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment, we may first perform an assessment of qualitative factors to determine if the fair value of the reporting unit or the intangible asset is more-likely-than-not greater than the carrying amount. Significant factors considered in this assessment include, but are not limited to, macro-economic conditions, market and industry conditions, cost considerations, the competitive environment, overall financial performance, and results of past impairment tests. If, based on a review of the qualitative factors, we determine it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value is greater than the carrying value, we may bypass a quantitative test for impairment.

In performing the quantitative test for impairment of goodwill, we compare the fair value of each reporting unit with it carrying amount, including goodwill, in order to identify a potential impairment. Measurement of the fair value of a reporting unit is based on a fair value measure using the sum of the discounted estimated future cash flows. Estimates of forecasted cash flows involve measurement uncertainty, and it is therefore possible that reductions in the carrying value of goodwill may be required in the future because of changes in management’s future cash flow estimates. When the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered to be impaired. Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted the guidance in Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which measures impairment amount as the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value as determined by the quantitative test.

Operating leases

We determine if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating lease right-of-use assets (“ROU assets”) and short-term and long-term lease liabilities are included on the face of the consolidated balance sheet.

ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use an incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Our lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component. For lease agreements with terms less than 12twelve months, we have elected the short-term lease measurement and recognition exemption, and we recognize such lease payments on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Fair value measurement

We determine the fair value of our assets and liabilities using a hierarchy established by the accounting guidance that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of valuation hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1 inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.

11

Table of Contents

Level 2 inputs to the valuation methodology included quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology areis one or more unobservable inputs which are significant to the fair value measurement.

Table of Contents

The carrying amount of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts receivable, deposits, short-term portion of notes receivable and notes payable, and current liabilities approximate fair value due to their short-term nature. We do not have financial assets or liabilities that are required under US GAAP to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. We have not elected to use fair value measurement option for any assets or liabilities for which fair value measurement is not presently required.

 

We record assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by US GAAP. Assets recognized or disclosed at fair value in the condensed consolidated financial statements on a nonrecurring basis include items such as property and equipment, operating lease assets, goodwill, and other intangible assets, which are measured at fair value if determined to be impaired.

Convertible debt and derivative treatment

When we issue debt with a conversion feature, we must first assess whether the conversion feature meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, as follows: a) one or more underlyings, typically the price of our common stock; b) one or more notional amounts or payment provisions or both, generally the number of shares upon conversion; c) no initial net investment, which typically excludes the amount borrowed; and d) net settlement provisions, which in the case of convertible debt generally means the stock received upon conversion can be readily sold for cash. An embedded equity-linked component that meets the definition of a derivative does not have to be separated from the host instrument if the component qualifies for the scope exception for certain contracts involving an issuer’s own equity. The scope exception applies if the contract is both a) indexed to its own stock, and b) classified in shareholders’ equity in its statement of financial position.

If the conversion feature within convertible debt meets the requirements to be treated as a derivative, we estimate the fair value of the convertible debt derivative using the Monte Carlo Method upon the date of issuance. If the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is higher than the face value of the convertible debt, the excess is immediately recognized as interest expense. Otherwise, the fair value of the convertible debt derivative is recorded as a liability with an offsetting amount recorded as a debt discount, which offsets the carrying amount of the debt. The convertible debt derivative is revalued at the end of each reporting period and any change in fair value is recorded as a gain or loss in the statement of operations. The debt discount is amortized through interest expense over the life of the debt.

Convertible debt and beneficial conversion features

If the conversion feature is not treated as a derivative, we assess whether it is a beneficial conversion feature (“BCF”). A BCF exists if the conversion price of the convertible debt instrument is less than the stock price on the commitment date. This typically occurs when the conversion price is less than the fair value of the stock on the date the instrument was issued. The value of a BCF is equal to the intrinsic value of the feature, the difference between the conversion price and the common stock into which it is convertible and is recorded as additional paid in capital and as a debt discount in the consolidated balance sheets. We amortize the balance over the life of the underlying debt as amortization of debt discount expense in the consolidated statements of operations. If the debt is retired early, the associated debt discount is then recognized immediately as amortization of debt discount expense in the consolidated statements of operations.

If the conversion feature does not qualify for either the derivative treatment or as a BCF, the convertible debt is treated as traditional debt.

Advertising costs

We expense all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising and marketing costs for the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, and 2021, were $4,232,734$2,968,140 and $776,086,$1,129,527, respectively.

Revenue recognition

We recognize revenue in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products. In instances where final acceptance of the product is

13

Table of Contents

specified by the customer,client, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. Revenues are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of our products and services to customersclients in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

executed contracts with our customers that it believeswe believe are legally enforceable;
identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;
determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;
allocation of the transaction price to each performance obligation; and
recognition of revenue only when we satisfy each performance obligation.

10

Table of Contents

Performance obligations and significant judgments

Our revenue streams can be categorized into two revenue streams with the following performance obligations and recognition patterns:

Advertising revenue

Advertising revenue accounts for 94% of our revenue and includes revenue from direct and programmatic advertising as well as sponsorships. For all advertising revenue sources, we evaluate whether we should be considered the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or an agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). We are considered the principal in our arrangements with content providers in our O&O Platform business and with our arrangements with our third-party partners in our Partner Platforms business and thus report revenues on a gross basis, wherein the amounts billed to our advertising demand partners, advertising agencies, and direct advertisers and sponsors are recorded as revenues, and amounts paid to content providers and third-party partners are recorded as expenses. We are considered the principal because we control the advertising space, are primarily responsible to our advertising demand partners and other parties filling our advertising inventory, have discretion in pricing and advertising fill rates and typically have an inventory risk.

For advertising inventory provided to advertisers through the use of an advertising demand partner or agency whose fees or commission is calculated based on a stated percentage of gross advertising spending, our revenues are reported net of agency fees and commissions.  

For advertising revenue, we recognize revenue at the time the digital advertising impressions are filled and the advertisements are played and, for sponsorship revenue, we generally recognize revenue ratably over the term of the sponsorship arrangement as the sponsored advertisements are played.

Legacy and other business revenue

Legacy and other business revenue accounts for the remaining 6% of total revenue and includes streaming services, subscription content services, and hardware delivery, as described below:

oDelivery of streaming services including content encoding and hosting. We recognize revenue over the term of the service based on bandwidth usage. Revenue from streaming services is insignificant.

oDelivery of subscription content services in customized formats. We recognize revenue straight-line over the term of the service.

oDelivery of hardware for ongoing subscription content delivery through software. We recognize revenue at the point of hardware delivery. Revenue from hardware sales is insignificant.
oRevenue share arrangements, where platform providers distribute our licensed content and providers pay us a portion of the usage-based advertising revenues.

Transaction prices for performance obligations are explicitly outlined in relevant agreements; therefore, we do not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified.

Customer acquisition costs

We record commission expense associated with subscription revenue. Commissions are included in operating expenses. We have elected the practical expedient that allows us to recognize the incremental costs of obtaining a contract as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the asset that we otherwise would have recognized is one year or less.

11

Table of Contents

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue represents the amortized cost of ongoing licensing and hosting fees, which is recognized over time based on usage patterns. The depreciation expense associated with the Loop players is not included in cost of sales.

Deferred income

We bill subscription services in advance of when the service period is performed. The deferred income recorded at June 30,December 31, 2022, and September 30, 20212022, represents our accounting for the timing difference between when the subscription fees are received and when the performance obligation is satisfied.

14

Table  For the three months ended December 31, 2022, and 2021, revenue of Contents$191,331 and $140,764, respectively, was recognized from the deferred revenue balance at the beginning of each period.

Net loss per share

We account for net loss per share in accordance with ASC subtopic 260-10, Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”), which requires presentation of basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) on the face of the statement of operations for all entities with complex capital structures and requires a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation to the numerator and denominator of the diluted EPS.

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing net loss attributable to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. It excludes the dilutive effects of any potentially issuable common shares.

Diluted net loss per share is calculated by including any potentially dilutive share issuances in the denominator.

The following securities are excluded from the calculation of weighted average diluted shares at June 30,December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2021,2022, respectively, because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Share-basedShipping and handling costs

A shipping and handling fee is charged to customers and recorded as revenue at the time of sale. The associated cost of shipping and handling is recorded as a cost of revenue at the time of service.

Income taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

12

Table of Contents

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense. We have also made a policy election to treat the income tax with respect to global intangible low-tax income as a period expense when incurred.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods therein. The adoption of this standard in the first quarter of 2022 had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Stock-based compensation

Share-basedStock-based compensation issued to employees is measured at the grant date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite service period. We measure the fair value of the share-basedstock-based compensation issued to non-employees using the stock price observed in the trading market (for stock transactions) or the fair value of the award (for non-stock transactions), which were more reliably determinable measures of fair value than the value of the services being rendered. The measurement date is the earlier of (1) the date at which commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on the previously reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Previously reported accounts payable and accrued liabilities have now been disaggregated into accounts payable, accrued liabilities, and accrued royalty.RecentFurther, stock-based compensation and depreciation and amortization expenses have now been segregated from sales, general and administrative expenses and separately reported within operating expenses.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This guidance requires the measurement of all expected credit losses for financial assets held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. This guidance also requires enhanced disclosures regarding significant estimates and judgments used in estimating credit losses. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 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). This ASU reduces the number of accounting models for convertible debt instruments and convertible preferred stock. As well as amend the guidance for the derivatives scope exception for contracts in an entity’s own equity to reduce form-over-substance-based accounting conclusions. In addition, this ASU improves and amends the related EPS guidance. The ASU is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted for periods beginning after December 15, 2020. Adoption of the ASU can either be on a modified retrospective or full retrospective basis. We adopted this ASU as of October 1, 2022, and there is no material impact as of December 31, 2022.

NOTE 4 – LICENSE CONTENT ASSETS

License Content Assets

To stream video content to the users, we generally secure intellectual property rights to such content by obtaining licenses from, and paying royalties or other consideration to, rights holders or their agents. The licensing arrangements can be for a fixed fee, variable fee, or combination of both. The licensing arrangements specify the period when the content is available for streaming. The license content assets are two years in duration and include prepayments to distributors for customer subscription revenues, per play usage fees, and ad supported fees.

As of June 30, 2022, license content assets were $420,789 recorded as License content asset, net – current and $36,797 recorded as License content asset, net – noncurrent.

We recorded amortization expense of $933,036 and $783,567 for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, in cost of revenue, in the consolidated statements of operations, related to capitalized license content assets. The amortization expense for the next two years for capitalized license content assets as of June 30, is $436,346 in 2022, and $21,240 in 2023.

License Content Liabilities

On June 30, 2022, we had $50,250 of obligations comprised of $50,250 in License content liability – current and $0 in License content liability – noncurrent on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Payments for content liabilities for the nine months ended June 30, 2022, were $853,500. The expected timing of payments for these content obligations is $19,000 payable in fiscal year 2022, and $31,250 payable in fiscal year 2023. Certain contracts provide for recoupment of payments on minimum obligations during the term of the contracts.

NOTE 3 – CONTENT ASSETS

Content Assets

The content we stream to our users is generally acquired by securing the intellectual property rights to the content through licenses from, and paying royalties or other consideration to, rights holders or their agents. The licensing can be for a fixed fee or can be a revenue sharing arrangement. The licensing arrangements specify the period when the content is available for streaming, the territories, the platforms, the fee structure and other standard content licensing terms defining the rights and/or restrictions for how the licensed content can be used by Loop.  We also develop original content internally, which is capitalized when the content is ready and available for streaming, and generally amortized over a period of two years. 

As of December 31, 2022, content assets were $1,863,697 recorded as Content asset, net – current and $1,634,847 recorded as Content asset, net – noncurrent, of which $313,180 was internally-developed content asset, net.

1) Unsecured convertible debentures (at $0.60 per common share) issued to related parties, amended October 23, 2020, interest at 10% per annum beginning November 1, 2020, monthly payments of unpaid interest accrued at 12.5% per annum will be paid in arrears through March 31, 2021, beginning April 1, 2021, we began paying equal monthly installments of principal and interest at 10% per annum through December 1, 2023. The debentures are convertible at any time prior to the maturity in whole or in parts into our common shares at a price of $0.60 per common share. We issued 3,550,709 common share purchase warrants, with each warrant

exercisable at $0.86 for a period of 10 years. The beneficial conversion feature totaled $612,313 and was recorded as a debt discount. We also recorded the allocated fair value of the warrants, $2,387,687 as additional debt discount. On May 9, 2022, we completed a transfer of these convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,068,399 by prepaying the principal and interest owed on such debentures in full under the terms of the debentures and issuing new substantially identical unsecured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,079,993 to a related party.

(2) On December 1, 2020, we offered, in a private placement, the aggregate offering amount of up to $3,000,000 of Senior Secured Promissory Debentures, with a minimum subscription amount of $250,000 and common stock warrants with an aggregate exercise price of $750,000 and aggregate exercisable warrant shares of 272,727 shares.

We treated the conversion feature as a derivative instrument. At the option of the Senior Secured Promissory Note holders, the notes are convertible at the earlier of a change of control event, a Qualified IPO, both of which are defined in the Promissory Note Agreement or the maturity date of December 1, 2022.  If the conversion takes place at the maturity date, the note will be converted in whole or in parts (which cannot be less than 50% of the amount due under the note) into an amount of shares equal to the amount due divided by the average of the VWAP of common stock during each trading day during the thirty trading day period ending one trading day prior to the maturity date.  If the conversion takes place at the change of control date, the note will be converted into an amount of shares equal to the amount due divided by the average of the VWAP of common stock during each trading day during the ten trading day period ending one trading day prior to the change of control effective date. In the event of a Qualified IPO, but subject to the closing of such Qualified IPO, the amount due shall convert in full on the closing date of such Qualified IPO into a number of shares equal to the amount due on such closing date divided by the applicable IPO conversion price, as defined in the Promissory Note Agreement.

The Senior Secured Promissory Debentures under the offering accrue cash interest at 4% per annum and payment in kind (PIK) interest at 6% payable in our common stock, determined on a 360-day basis. Cash interest is payable in advance for the period from the issue date to November 30, 2021, and then is payable six months in arrears on June 1, 2022, then six months in arrears on December 1, 2022. The accrued PIK interest is payable in shares of common stock in an amount equal to the amount of PIK Interest accrued as of such date, divided by the volume weighted average price (VWAP) of common stock during each trading day during the ten-trading day period ending one trading day prior to the PIK Interest Payment due dates of June 1, 2021, December 1, 2021, June 1, 2022, and December 1, 2022. The proceeds received upon issuing the Senior Secured Promissory Debentures were first allocated to the fair value of the embedded features with the remainder to the debt host instrument.

$750,000 December 1, 2020 debenture the fair value of the conversion feature of $339,216 and the allocated fair value of the warrants of $26,770 were recorded as debenture discount.
$350,000 January 12, 2021 debenture the fair value of the conversion feature of $139,751 and the allocated fair value of the warrants of $31,282 were recorded as debenture discount.
$800,000 April 1, 2021 debenture the fair value of the conversion feature of $319,431 and the allocated fair value of the warrants of $60,406 were recorded as debenture discount.
$400,000 May 1, 2021 debenture the fair value of the conversion feature of $159,715 and the allocated fair value of the warrants of $31,309 were recorded as debenture discount.

(3) Convertible debentures (at $0.60 per common share) issued to a former officer, interest at 10% per annum, amended as of October 22, 2020, provides those monthly payments of $7,939 including principal and interest are to be made beginning December 1, 2020 through its maturity date of December 1, 2023; secured by 5,000,000 shares of our common stock which are owned by the Chief Executive Officer. The debenture is convertible at any time prior to December 1, 2023, in whole or in parts into our common stock at a price of $0.60 per common share. As the effective conversion rate based on the principal $287,000 was $0.60 per share which was less than our stock price on the date of issuance, a beneficial conversion feature was present at the issuance date. The beneficial conversion feature totaled $30,996 and was recorded as a debt discount. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, principal payments totaled $29,939. On July 2, 2021, $216,105 total debenture and $1,800 of unpaid accrued interest was converted into 363,176 shares of common stock and we recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $15,006 on debenture discount.

(4) Secured convertible debenture (primary interest in all of our assets), interest at 11% per annum, accrued monthly and the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest was due January 8, 2021. $326,143 total debenture and $50,213 of unpaid accrued interest was converted into 1,003,618 shares of common stock on January 8, 2021. The lender received 1,003,618 shares of common stock from this conversion and we recognized no gain or loss.

(5)On May 9, 2022, we completed a transfer of certain of our outstanding unsecured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,068,399  (the “Old Debentures”) by prepaying the principal and interest owed on such debentures in full under the terms of the debentures and issuing new substantially identical unsecured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,079,993 (the “New Debentures”) to a related party (the “Transfer”). The New Debentures, like the Old Debentures, mature on December 1, 2023, require monthly installments of principal and interest at 10% per annum and are convertible at any time prior to the maturity in whole or in part into our common shares at a price of $0.60 per common share. We had previously sought, but did not receive, certain concessions from the holders of the Old Debentures related to ongoing monthly principal and interest payments and the conversion of the Old Debentures into shares of our common stock in connection with any significant public equity capital raise by us. In connection with the issuance of the New Debentures, the holder thereof (the “Transferee”) has agreed to a cessation of principal and interest payments on the New Debentures until December 1, 2022, at which time accrued interest would be paid in a lump sum in cash and monthly principal and interest payments would resume. The Transferee has further agreed to convert the New Debentures into shares of our common stock upon any significant public equity capital raise by us.

Under the RAT Non-Revolving Loan Agreement, we granted to the lenders under the RAT Non-Revolving Loan Agreement a security interest in all of our present and future assets and properties, real or personal, tangible or intangible, wherever located, including products and proceeds thereof, which security interest is pari passu with the Excel Non-Revolving Loan Agreement (which was subsequently subordinated in connection with our Revolving Loan Agreement). In connection with the RAT Non-Revolving Loan Agreement, on May 13, 2022, we issued a warrant (each a “Warrant” and collectively, the “Warrants”) to each lender under the RAT Non-Revolving Loan Agreement for an aggregate of up to 628,575209,522 shares of our common stock (the “Warrant Shares”). Each Warrant has an exercise price of $1.75$5.25 per share, expires on May 13, 2025, and shall be exercisable at any time prior to the expiration datedate.

Revolving Loan Agreement

Effective as of July 29, 2022, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”) with Industrial Funding Group, Inc. (the “Initial Lender”) for a revolving loan credit facility for the initial principal sum of up to $4,000,000, and through the exercise of an accordion feature, a total sum of up to $10,000,000, evidenced by a Revolving Loan Secured Promissory Note, also effective as of July 29, 2022 (the “Revolving Loan”). Shortly after the effective date of the Revolving Loan, the Initial Lender assigned the Revolving Loan Agreement, and the loan documents related thereto, to GemCap Solutions, LLC (the “Senior Lender”).  Availability for borrowing under the Revolving Loan Agreement is dependent upon our assets in certain eligible accounts and measures of revenue, subject to reduction for reserves that the Senior Lender may require in its discretion, and the accordion feature is a provision whereby we may request that the Senior Lender increase availability under the Revolving Loan Agreement, subject to its sole discretion. Effective as of October 27, 2022, we entered into Amendment Number 1 to the Revolving Loan Agreement with the Senior Lender to increase the principal sum available from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000. As of December 31, 2022, we had borrowed $5,973,001 under the Revolving Loan. The Revolving Loan matures on July 29, 2024, and began accruing interest on the unpaid principal balance of advances, payable monthly in arrears, on September 7, 2022, at an annual rate equal to the greater of (I) the sum of (i) the “Prime Rate” as reported in the “Money Rates” column of The Wall Street Journal, adjusted as and when such Prime Rate changes, plus (ii) zero percent (0.00%), and (II) four percent (4.00%). Under the Revolving Loan Agreement, we have granted to the Senior Lender a first-priority security interest in all of our present and future property and assets, including products and proceeds thereof. In connection with the loan, our existing secured lenders (the “Subordinated Lenders”) delivered subordination agreements (the “Subordination Agreements”)

to the Senior Lender. We are permitted to make regularly scheduled payments, including payments upon maturity, to such subordinated lenders and potentially other payments subject to a measure of cash flow and receiving certain financing activity proceeds, in accordance with the terms of the Subordination Agreements. In connection with the delivery of the Subordination Agreements by the Subordinated Lenders, on July 29, 2022, we issued warrants to each Subordinated Lender on identical terms for an aggregate of up to 296,329 shares of our common stock. Each warrant has an exercise price of $5.25 per share, expires on July 29, 2025 (the “Expiration Date”), and shall be exercisable at any time prior to the Expiration Date. One warrant for 191,570 warrant shares was issued to Eagle Investment Group, LLC, an entity managed by Bruce Cassidy, a member of our Board of Directors, as directed by its affiliate, Excel Family Partners, LLLP, one of the Subordinated Lenders. The Subordinated Lenders receiving warrants for the remaining 104,759 warrant shares were also entitled to receive a cash payment of $22,000 six months from the date of the Subordination Agreements, representing one percent (1.00%) of the outstanding principal amount of the loan held by such Subordinated Lenders. This cash payment was made to such Subordinated Lenders on January 25, 2023.

The warrants were accounted for as equity awards. We allocated the debt and warrant on a relative fair value basis to theproceedsreceived for the revolving loan agreement. We further allocated the fair value of the $1,347,719 of the warrants at inception as a debt discount and recorded the straight-line amortization of debt discount as interest expense.

The Revolving Loan had a balance, including accrued interest, amounting to $6,029,465 and $4,587,255 as of December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2022, respectively.

NOTE 1312 – STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

Options

Option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. The fair value of stock-based payment awards was estimated using the Black-Scholes option model with a volatility figure derived from using our historical stock prices. We account for the expected life of options based on the contractual life of options for non-employees. For employees, our accountswe account for the expected life of options in accordance with the “simplified” method, which is used for “plain-vanilla” options, as defined in the accounting standards codification. The risk-free interest rate was determined from the implied yields of U.S. Treasury zero-coupon bonds with a remaining life consistent with the expected term of the options.

During the three months ended December 31, 2022, no warrants were issued. We recorded consulting expense of $130,682 as a result of current period vesting of previously issued warrants to various companies for consulting services.

NOTE 1413 – INCOME TAXES

We calculate our interim income tax provision in accordance with ASC Topic 270, Interim Reporting and ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. At the end of each interim period, we estimate the annual effective tax rate and apply that rate to our ordinary year to date earnings. In addition, the tax effects of unusual or infrequently occurring items including changes in judgment about valuation allowances and effects of changes in enacted tax laws are recognized discretely in the interim period in which the change occurs. The computation of the annual estimated effective tax rate at each interim period requires certain estimates and significant judgment including the expected operating (loss) income for the year, permanent and temporary differences as a result of differences between amounts measured and recognized in accordance with tax laws and financial accounting standards, and the likelihood of recovering deferred tax assets generated in the current fiscal year. The accounting estimates used to compute income tax expense may change as new events occur or additional information is obtained.

For the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, we recorded an income tax provision of $1,051 related to state and local taxes.$1,230. For the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $99,830 primarily$251 related to a true-up of prepaid taxes from 2019.state and local taxes. The effective rate for both the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% as no income tax benefit was recorded for current year operating losses as we maintain a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recorded an income tax provision of $0 related to state and local taxes. For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we recorded an income tax provision of $0 related to state and local taxes. The effective rate for both the three months ended June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, differ from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% as no income tax benefit was recorded for current year operating losses as we maintain a full valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.

Overview

We are a multichannel digital video platform media company that uses marketing technology, or “MarTech,” to generate our revenue and offer our services. Our technology and vast library of videos and licensed content enable us to curate and distribute short-form videos to out-of-home (“OOH”) dining, hospitality, retail, convenience stores and other locations and venues to enable them to inform, entertain and engage their customers. OurIn addition, our technology provides third-party advertisers with a targeted marketing and promotional tool for their products and services and, in certain instances, allows us to measure the number of potential viewers of such advertising and promotional materials. We also allow OOH customersclients to access our service without advertisements by paying a monthly subscription fee. In addition to providing services to OOH venue operators, we currently provide our services direct to consumers (“D2C”) in their homes on connected TVs (“CTVs”) and on their mobile devices.

We offer self-curatedhand-curated music video content licensed from major and independent record labels, including Universal Music Group (“Universal”), Sony Music Entertainment (“Sony”), and Warner Music Group (“Warner” and collectively with Universal and Sony, the “Music Labels”), as well as non-music video content, which is predominantly licensed or acquired from third parties, including action sports clips, drone and atmospheric footage, trivia, news headlines, lifestyle channels and kid-friendly videos, as well as movie, television and video game trailers, kid-friendly videos, viral videos, drone footage, news headlines, and lifestyle and atmospheric channels.amongst other content. We distribute our content and advertising inventory to digital screens located in OOH locations primarily through (i) our owned and operated platform (“O(the “O&O Network”Platform”) of Loop Media-designed “small-box” streaming Android media players (“Loop Players”) and legacy ScreenPlay computers and (ii) through screens on digital networks owned and operated by third parties (“Partner Network”,(each a “Partner Platform” and collectively the “Partner Platforms,” and together with the O&O Network,Platform, the “Loop Network”Platform”). We moved to an advertising-based model and ramped up distribution of Loop Players for our O&O Network starting in early 2021. As of June 30,December 31, 2022, we had 12,584 quarterly active units (“QAUs”).26,903 QAUs operating on our O&O Platform. See below “Key“— Key Performance Indicators.” We launched our Partner NetworkPlatforms business beginning in early May 2022 with one partner on approximately 5,00017,000 of the partner’s screens and we rolled out toare in the remaining 12,000process of finalizing an additional approximately 13,500 screens in that network asa second Partner Platform, for a total of mid-May 2022, remaining at approximately that level as of early-August 2022.

We expect to begin earning revenue on these additional screens in our CTV business, complement these newer businesses.second fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2023.

Key Performance Indicators

We review our quarterly active units (“QAUs”) and average revenue per unit player (“ARPU”), among other key performance indicators, to evaluate our business, measure our performance, identify trends affecting our business, formulate financial projections and make strategic decisions.

Quarterly Active Units

We define an “active unit” as (i) an ad-supported Loop Player (or DOOH location using our ad- supported service through our “Loop for Business” application or using an DOOH venue-owned computer screening our content) that is online, used on our O&O Platform, playing content and has checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in the 90-day period or (ii) a DOOH location customer using our subscription service on our O&O Platform at any time during the 90-day period. We use “QAU” to refer to the number of such active units during such period.

Beginning October 1, 2021, we began to pre-activate almost all of We do not count towards our QAUs any Loop Players prior to delivery to customers, in response to feedback from customers and in order to further streamline the installation process and simplify the use of the Loop Players in DOOH locations. Pre-activated Loop Players are ordered by third-party DOOH locations and represent potential revenue for us when the Loop Players are installed in the DOOH locations. As a result of these operational changes, for any period following September 30, 2021, we will include inor screens used on our definition of “active unit” any Loop Player that has been pre-activated and shipped by us to a DOOH location customer for a period of 90 days post shipment, regardless of whether such customer utilizes the Loop Player in their DOOH location. After the 90-day period, these Loop Players will drop out of the QAU definition, unless they are otherwise online, playing content, and checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in any subsequent 90-day period. Prior to October 1, 2021, if a Loop Player was not activated by the DOOH location operator it would not be counted as an active unit.

Accordingly, our QAUs for periods subsequent to September 30, 2021, will not be strictly comparable to our September 30, 2021, or prior period, QAUs. Increases or decreases in our QAU may not correspond with increases or decreases in our revenue, and QAU may be calculated in a manner different than any similar key performance indicator used by other companies.

The growth in QAUs was almost entirely the result of growth in our ad-supported Loop Players. This growth was impacted by our increased focus, and the provision of additional resources, to our affiliate program, increased Loop Player requests by certain of our affiliate partners and the introduction of an automated system for our client success team to identify Loop Players that have gone offline to enable us to reengage with the relevant customers and reactivate their Loop Players. QAU was 12,584 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, 10,530 for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, a 20% increase.

Average Revenue Per Unit

We define a “unit player” as (i) an ad-supported Loop Player (or a DOOH location using our ad-supportedad- supported service through our “Loop for Business” application or using a DOOH location-owned computer screening our content) that is online, used on our O&O Platform, playing content and has checked into the Loop analytics system at least once in the 90-day period or (ii) a DOOH location customer using our paid subscription service on our O&O Platform at any time during the 90-day period. A unit player that is supported by our advertising-based revenue model is an ad-supported unit player and a unit player that is supported by a subscription-based revenue model is a subscription unit player. We calculate advertising ARPU (“(“AD ARPU”) by dividing quarterly revenues from our DOOH ad-supported service on our O&O Platform for the period by QAUs for our ad-supported unit players. players on our O&O Platform.

Table of Contents

Sales, General and Administrative Expenses

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of employee compensation and related costs associated with our sales and marketing staff, including salaries, benefits, bonuses and commissions as well as costs relating to our marketing and business development. We intend to continue to invest resources in our sales and marketing initiatives to drive growth and extend our market position.

General and administrative expenses consist of employee compensation and related costs for executive, finance, legal, human resources, recruiting, and employee-related information technology and administrative personnel, including salaries, benefits, and bonuses, andas well as depreciation, facilities, recruiting and other corporate services.

Other Income/Expense

Goodwill ImpairmentInterest Expense

Goodwill impairment occurs when the carrying amount of a goodwill asset is greater than its fair value. The amount of the impairment is the difference between the two figures.  Goodwill is recorded as part of a corporate acquisition, representing the excess of the price paid over the value of the underlying assets and liabilities of the acquiree.

Interest expense

Interest expense consists of interest expense on our outstanding indebtedness and amortization of debt issuance costs.

Income Taxes

Income taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are adjusted for the effect of changes in tax laws and rates on the date of enactment.

Under ASC 740, a tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination.

28

Table of Contents

For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

We recognize accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of income tax expense. We have also made a policy election to treat the income tax with respect to global intangible low-tax income as a period expense when incurred.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its initiative to reduce complexity in accounting standards. The amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods therein. The adoption of this standard in the first quarter of 2022 had no impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Revenue

Our revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was $14,825,831, an increase of $11,829,797, or 395%, from $2,996,034 for the three months ended December 31, 2021. This increase was primarily driven by significantly more Loop Players deployed into the market, as well as the benefit from our Partner Platform business that was launched in May 2022.

We are not immune to the challenges presented by the broader macro environment. We are seeing headwinds in overall digital ad spend that started to emerge in the second half of quarter ended December 31, 2022, that has continued into calendar 2023. During the quarter we also benefitted from unusually strong seasonal advertising related to the political election cycle in November, which contributed to our outperformance and offset the challenging second half of our fiscal Q1.

Revenue

Our revenue increased for the three months ended June 30, 2022, from the three months ended June 30, 2021, by $9,643,290, or 831%, primarily due to an increased DOOH player count and increased revenue per player. Subscription revenue also increased due to more active units from additional DOOH locations.

Our total revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022, consists of total revenue contributions of 50% from our ad-based revenue distributed on our proprietary Loop Players in our O&O Network business, 43% from our new Partner Network business, and 7% from our legacy and other business (primarily our CTV and subscription-based businesses).  Revenue associated with our Partner Network business began in early May 2022.

Gross Margin

This increase in 2021 by $3,388,366 or 853%,cost of revenue was primarily due to increased salesroyalties and a changelicense fees associated with higher business activities and revenue share arrangements with the Music Labels and content providers.

Our gross profit margin for the three months ended December 31, 2022, was $5,686,031, an increase of $4,134,974, or 267%, from $1,551,057 for the three months ended December 31, 2021.  This increase in estimates as we have improved our procedures over the estimation process.gross profit margin was primarily due to increased revenue.

Our gross profit margin as a percentage of total revenue is approximately 35% for the quarter ending June 30, 2022. three months ended December 31, 2022, was approximately 38.4% compared to 51.8% for the three months ended December 31, 2021. The percentage decrease was primarily driven by revenue mix as the year-ago period did not include the launch of our Partner Platform business, which carries lower gross margin but higher operating margin.

The relative contributions to total revenue of our O&O NetworkPlatform and Partner NetworkPlatforms businesses will impact our gross profit margin as a percentage of total revenue in future periods, as each of those businesses have different cost of revenue components with a lower gross profit margin in our Partner NetworkPlatforms business.

Total Operating Expenses

Non-GAAP EBITDA

We believe that the presentation of EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA,a financial measuresmeasure that areis not part of U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or U.S.GAAP,U.S. GAAP, provides investors with additional information about our financial results. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA areis an important supplemental measuresmeasure used by our boardBoard of directorsDirectors and management to evaluate our operating performance from period-to-period on a consistent basis and as a measure for planning and forecasting overall expectations and for evaluating actual results against such expectations.

We define EBITDA as earnings before interest expense (income), income tax (expense)/benefit, depreciation and amortization.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as earnings before interest expense (income), income tax (expense)/benefit, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for stock-based compensation and other non-recurring income and expenses, if any.

EBITDA is not measured in accordance with, or an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, this non-GAAP measure is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. As a non-GAAP measure, EBITDA has limitations in that it does not reflect all of the amounts associated with our results of operations as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In particular:

EBITDA does not reflect the amounts we paid in interest expense on our outstanding debt;
EBITDA does not reflect the amounts we received in interest income on our investments;
EBITDA does not reflect the amounts we paid in taxes or other components of our tax provision;
EBITDA does not include depreciation expense from fixed assets; and
EBITDA does not include amortization expense.

Because of these limitations, you should consider EBITDA alongside other financial performance measures including net income (loss) and our financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

There can be no guarantee or assurance that we can raise adequate capital from outside sources. If we are unable to raise funds when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly reduce, or discontinue our operations.

Future Capital Requirements

We have generated limited revenue, and as of June 30,December 31, 2022, our cash totaled $709,725$7,753,644, and we had an accumulated deficit of ($81,763,526).$101,581,303. We believe that our existing cash will enable us to fund our operations for at least twelve months from the date of this Report. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we expect. We anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses for the foreseeable future. However,future; however, changing circumstances may cause us to expend cash significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more cash than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control.

Historically, our principal sources of cash have included proceeds from the issuance of common stock, preferred stock and preferred equitywarrants and proceeds from the issuance of debt. Our principal uses of cash have included cash used in operations, payments for license rights and payments relating to purchases of property and equipment. We expect that the principal uses of cash in the future will be for continuing operations, and general working capital requirements. We expect that as our operations continue to grow, we will need to raise additional capital to sustain operations and growth.

Non-Revolving Lines of Credit

On February 23, 2022, we entered into a Non-Revolving Line of Credit Loan Agreement (the “Prior Excel Loan Agreement”) with Excel Family Partnership, LLLP (“Excel”), an entity managed by Bruce Cassidy, a member of our boardBoard of directors,Directors, for aggregate principal amount of $1.5 million,$1,500,000, which was amended on April 13, 2022, to increase the aggregate principal amount to $2.0 million$2,000,000 (the “$2m Loan”).

On April 25, 2022, we used $2.022 million$2,000,000 of the proceeds of the Excel Non-Revolving Loan to prepay all of the remaining outstanding principal and interest of the $2m Loan and the Prior Excel Loan Agreement was terminated in connection with such prepayment. Under the Excel Non-Revolving Loan Agreement, we granted to the lender a security interest in all of our present and future assets and properties, real or personal, tangible or intangible, wherever located, including products and proceeds thereof.thereof (which was subsequently subordinated in connection with our Revolving Loan Agreement (as defined below). In connection with the Excel Non-Revolving Loan, on April 25, 2022, we issued a warrant for an aggregate of up to 1,149,425383,141 shares of our common stock. The warrant has an exercise price of $1.75$5.25 per share, expires on April 25, 2025, and isshall be exercisable at any time prior to the expiration date.

The Excel Non-Revolving Loan had a balance, including accrued interest, amounting to $4,111,492 and $4,226,181 as of December 31, 2022, and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Effective as of May 13, 2022, we entered into a Non-Revolving Line of Credit Loan Agreement (the “RAT Non-Revolving Loan Agreement”) with several institutions and individuals and RAT Investment Holdings, LP, as administrator of the loan (the “Loan Administrator”) for an aggregate principal amount of $2.2 million$2,200,000 (the “RAT Non-Revolving Loan”).

The 2023 Notes

We have borrowed funds for business operations from two of our stockholders, Dreamcatcher, LLC and Running Wind, LLC, each of which isRAT Non-Revolving Loan had a beneficial holder of more than 5% of our common stock, through convertible debt agreements (the “Convertible Promissory Notes”). Each Convertible Promissory Note was originally issued on December 5, 2018, on identical terms in the principal amount of $1,500,000, and each was amended and restated October 31, 2019, and October 23, 2020. The Convertible Promissory Notes carried interest at 10% per annum beginning on November 1, 2020, with monthly payments of unpaid interest accrued at 12.5% per annum to be paid in arrears through March 31, 2021, and were set to mature on December 1, 2023. Beginning April 1, 2021, we began paying equal monthly installments of principal and interest on the Convertible Promissory Notes at 10% per annum.  The Convertible Promissory Notes were convertible at any time prior to the maturity in whole or in part into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.60 per share.

On May 9, 2022, we completed a refinancing of the Convertible Promissory Notes, then having the aggregate principal amount of $2,068,399 by prepaying the principal and interest owed on such Convertible Promissory Notes in full under the terms of the notes and issuing new substantially identical unsecured convertible debentures in the aggregate principal amount of $2,079,993 (the “2023 Notes”) to LM Note Acquisition LLC. Jeremy Boczulak, a beneficial holder of more than 5% of our common stock, has a 75.72 percentage ownership interest in LM Note Acquisition LLC. The 2023 Notes, like the Convertible Promissory Notes, mature on December 1, 2023, require monthly installments of principal and interest at 10% per annum and are convertible at any time prior to the maturity in whole or in part into shares of our common stock at a price of $0.60 per share. We had previously sought, but did not receive, certain concessions from the holders of the Convertible Promissory Notes related to ongoing monthly principal and interest payments and the conversion of the Convertible Promissory Notes into shares of our common stock in connection with any significant public equity capital raise by us. In connection with the issuance of the 2023 Notes, the holder thereof (the “2023 Noteholder”) has agreed to a cessation of principal and interest payments on the 2023 Notes until December 1, 2022, at which time accrued interest would be paid in a lump sum in cash and monthly principal and interest payments would resume. The 2023 Noteholder has further agreed to convert the 2023 Notes into shares of our common stock upon any significant public equity capital raise by us. Accordingly, the 2023 Notes will be converted simultaneously with the closing of the proposed equity offering referenced below into an aggregate of 3,517,942 shares, based on the outstanding principal and interest of $2,110,766 as of July 1, 2022 and the conversion price of $0.60 per share.

In connection with an amendment to the Convertible Promissory Notes, in November 2019, we also issued warrants to purchase 1,775,354 shares of our common stock to Dreamcatcher, LLC and warrants to purchase 1,775,355 shares of our common stock to Running Wind, LLC, for an aggregate of 3,550,709 shares of our common stock, exercisable at $0.86 per share for a period of 10 years.

The 2022 Notes

Revolving Loan Agreement

Effective as of July 29, 2022, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the “Loan“Revolving Loan Agreement”) with Industrial Funding Group, Inc. (the “Initial Lender”) for a revolving loan credit facility for the initial principal sum of up to four million dollars ($4.0 million),$4,000,000, and through the exercise of an accordion feature, a total sum of up to ten million dollars ($10 million) (the “Loan”),$10,000,000, evidenced by a Revolving Loan Secured Promissory Note, (the “Note”), also effective as of July 29, 2022.  As2022 (the “Revolving Loan”).

Effective as of October 27, 2022, we entered into Amendment Number 1 to the Loan and Security Agreement and to the Loan Agreement Schedule with the Senior Lender to increase the principal sum available under the Revolving Loan Agreement from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000. As of December 31, 2022, we had borrowed $5,973,001 under the Revolving Loan.

Our future use of operating cash and capital requirements will depend on many forward-looking factors, including the following:

our ability to attract and retain management with experience in digital media including digital video music streaming, and similar emerging technologies;
our ability to negotiate, finalize and maintain economically feasible agreements with the major and independent music labels, publishers and performance rights organizations;
our expectations regarding market acceptance of our products in general, and our ability to penetrate digital video music streaming in particular;

Going ConcernWe have evaluated and expect to continue to evaluate a wide array of strategic transactions as part of our plan to acquire or license and develop additional products and services to augment our current business operations. Strategic transaction opportunities that we may pursue could materially affect our liquidity and capital resources and may require us to incur additional indebtedness, seek equity capital or both. Accordingly, we expect to continue to opportunistically seek access to additional capital to license or acquire additional products, services or companies to expand our operations, or for general corporate purposes. Strategic transactions may require us to raise additional capital through one or more public or private debt or equity financings or could be structured as a collaboration or partnering arrangement. We have no arrangements, agreements, or understandings in place at the present time to enter into any acquisition, licensing or similar strategic business transaction.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. For

If we raise additional funds by issuing equity securities, our stockholders will experience dilution. Debt financing, if available, would result in increased fixed payment obligations and may involve agreements that include covenants limiting or restricting our ability to take specific actions, such as incurring additional debt, making capital expenditures, or declaring dividends. Any debt financing or additional equity that we raise may contain terms, such as liquidation and other preferences that are not favorable to us or our stockholder.

As of December 31, 2022, our cash totaled $7,753,644. During the ninethree months ended June 30,December 31, 2022, we hadincurred a net loss of $(14,921,110),$5,259,439 and used $6,823,229 of cash in operations. We have incurred significant operating losses in the past and, as of December 31, 2022, we had net cash used in operating activities of $(8,832,956), had working capital of $(1,565,517), and an accumulated deficit of $(81,763,526). These matters raise substantial doubt aboutapproximately $101,581,303.  We do not expect to experience positive cash flows from operations in the near future as we continue to invest in the distribution of our Loop Players and the expansion of our Partner Platform business. We also expect to incur significant additional legal and financial expenditures in meeting the regulatory requirements of an NYSE-American listed public company.

There is uncertainty regarding our ability to grow our business without additional financing. Our long-term future growth and success are dependent upon our ability to continue asselling our services, generate cash from operating activities and obtain additional financing. We may be unable to continue selling our products and services, generate sufficient cash from operations, sell additional shares of common stock or borrow additional funds. Our inability to obtain additional cash could have a going concernmaterial adverse effect on our ability to grow our business to a greater extent than we can with our existing financial resources.

Based on our current operating plan, we believe that our existing cash will enable us to fund our operations for a period of one yearat least the twelve months from the date of this filing. Report. We have based this estimate on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could use our available capital resources sooner than we expect.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates and Assumptions

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include assumptions used in the revenue recognition of performance obligations, fair value of stock-based compensation awards and income taxes.  

Revenue Recognition

Our abilityrevenue recognition disclosure reflects our updated accounting policies that are affected by this new standard. We applied the “modified retrospective” transition method for open contracts for the implementation of Topic 606. As sales are and have been primarily from delivery of streaming services, delivery of subscription content services in customized formats, and delivery of hardware and ongoing content delivery through software and we have no significant post-delivery obligations, this new standard did not result in a material recognition of revenue on our consolidated financial

Table of Contents

statements for the cumulative impact of applying this new standard. Therefore, there was no cumulative effect adjustment required.

We recognize revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control over a product to continuea customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those products. In instances where final acceptance of the product is specified by the customer, revenue is deferred until all acceptance criteria have been met. Revenues are recognized under Topic 606 in a manner that reasonably reflects the delivery of our products and services to clients in return for expected consideration and includes the following elements:

executed contracts with our clients that we believe are legally enforceable;
identification of performance obligations in the respective contract;
determination of the transaction price for each performance obligation in the respective contract;
allocation the transaction price to each performance obligation; and
recognition of revenue only when we satisfy each performance obligation.

Performance Obligations and Significant Judgments

Our revenue can be categorized into two revenue streams with the following performance obligations and recognition patterns:

Advertising Revenue

Advertising revenue accounts for 94% of our revenue and includes revenue from direct and programmatic advertising as well as sponsorships. For all advertising revenue sources, we evaluate whether we should be considered the principal (i.e., report revenues on a gross basis) or an agent (i.e., report revenues on a net basis). We are considered the principal in our arrangements with content providers in our O&O Platform business and with our arrangements with our third-party partners in our Partner Platforms business and thus report revenues on a gross basis, wherein the amounts billed to our advertising demand partners, advertising agencies, and direct advertisers and sponsors are recorded as revenues, and amounts paid to content providers and third-party partners are recorded as expenses. We are considered the principal because we control the advertising space, are primarily responsible to our advertising demand partners and other parties filling our advertising inventory, have discretion in pricing and advertising fill rates and typically have an inventory risk.

For advertising inventory provided to advertisers through the use of an advertising demand partner or agency whose fees or commission is calculated based on a stated percentage of gross advertising spending, our revenues are reported net of agency fees and commissions.  

For advertising revenue, we recognize revenue at the time the digital advertising impressions are filled and the advertisements are played and, for sponsorship revenue, we generally recognize revenue ratably over the term of the sponsorship arrangement as the sponsored advertisements are played.

Legacy and Other Business Revenue

Legacy and other business revenue accounts for the remaining 6% of total revenue and includes streaming services, subscription content services, and hardware delivery, as described below:

oDelivery of streaming services including content encoding and hosting. We recognize revenue over the term of the service based on bandwidth usage. Revenue from streaming services is insignificant.

38

Table of Contents

oDelivery of subscription content services in customized formats. We recognize revenue straight-line over the term of the service.

oDelivery of hardware for ongoing subscription content delivery through software. We recognize revenue at the point of hardware delivery. Revenue from hardware sales is insignificant.

Transaction prices for performance obligations are explicitly outlined in relevant contractual agreements; therefore, we do not believe that significant judgments are required with respect to the determination of the transaction price, including any variable consideration identified.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation awarded to employees is measured at the award date, based on the fair value of the award, and is recognized as an expense over the requisite vesting period. We measure the fair value of the stock-based compensation issued to non-employees using the stock price observed in the trading market (for stock transactions) or the fair value of the award (for non-stock transactions), which were more reliably determinable measures of fair value than the value of the services being rendered. The measurement date is the earlier of (1) the date at which commitment for performance by the counterparty to earn the equity instruments is reached, or (2) the date at which the counterparty’s performance is complete.

Content Assets

On January 1, 2020, we adopted the guidance in ASU 2019-02, Entertainment—Films—Other Assets—Film Costs (Subtopic 926-20) and Entertainment—Broadcasters—Intangibles—Goodwill and Other (Subtopic 920-350): Improvements to Accounting for Costs of Films and License Agreements for Program Materials, on a prospective basis. We capitalize the fixed content fees and our corresponding liability when the license period begins, the cost of the content is known, and the content is accepted and available for streaming. If the licensing fee is not determinable or reasonably estimable, no asset or liability is recorded, and licensing costs are expenses as incurred. We amortize licensed content assets into cost of revenue, using the straight-line method over the contractual period of availability. The liability is paid in accordance with the contractual terms of the arrangement. Internally-developed content costs are capitalized in the same manner as licensed content costs, when the cost of the content is known and the content is ready and available for streaming. We amortize internally-developed content assets into cost of revenue, using the straight-line method over the estimated period of streaming.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Income Taxes. ASC 740 requires a company to use the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes, whereby deferred tax assets are recognized for deductible temporary differences, and deferred tax liabilities are recognized for taxable temporary differences. Temporary differences are the differences between the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and their tax bases. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance when, in the opinion of management, it is more likely than not that some portion, or all of, the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022.Based on thisupon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and as a result of the material weaknesses described below, our CEO and CFO haveChief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2022. Notwithstanding the material weaknesses that were identified and continued to exist at June 30, 2022, management believes that the financial statements includedlevel.

Changes in this report present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the period presented.Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

Material Weaknesses and Management’s Remediation Plan

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, within the meaning of Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) Auditing Standard AS 2201, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with US GAAP. The following material weaknessesThere have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting were identified(as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the normal course and continuedExchange Act) that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to exist as of June 30, 2022:

We failed to maintain an effective control environment due to the following:

Table of Contents

Our management and governance had insufficient oversight of the design and operating effectiveness ofmaterially affect, our disclosure controls and internal controls over financial reporting;

We failed to maintain effective controls over the period-end financial reporting process, including controls with respect to preparation and disclosure of provision for income taxes, valuation and presentation of asset acquisition, content assets and liabilities, and investments; and

We failed to maintain effective controls over journal entries, both recurring and nonrecurring, and account reconciliations and did not maintain proper segregation of duties. Journal entries were not always accompanied by sufficient supporting documentation and were not adequately reviewed and approved for validity, completeness and accuracy. In most instances, persons responsible for reviewing journal entries and account reconciliations for validity, completeness and accuracy were also responsible for preparation.

Management’s Remediation Initiatives

We have concluded that these material weaknesses arose because, as previously a private company, we did not have the necessary business processes, systems, personnel, and related internal controls.  During the past two quarters, we have undertaken measures to address these material weaknesses in our internal controls including hiring permanent accounting/finance staff, which has made a significant impact on the timeliness and accuracy of our monthly close schedule, segregation of duties, and analysis and establishment of internal controls over financial reporting.  

Our third–party consulting firm that specializes in internal audit work, and more specifically internal controls over financial reporting work, has assisted management and will continue to assist management with our risk assessment of internal control over financial reporting as well as documentation and testing of our internal control structure and evaluation of material weaknesses. Specifically, with the right compliment of accounting and finance team members now in place, our entire control environment is being evaluated for enhancement of our internal controls over financial reporting.

In addition to the measures noted above, we have made progress in our remediation plan including the following items:

Increased precision and estimates for revenue recognition
Improved formalization of procedures and documentation for all journal entries
Created work center budgets by account for all of fiscal year 2022
Established approval of all invoices by work center Managers
Established monthly expense review of P&L and Balance Sheet with accounting team and CFO
Selected new ERP System with plans to implement and roll out by October 2022
Introduced Lockbox for all check payments received at HQ Office
Established an Internal Audit Committee with quarterly meetings to be held to review financials, public reporting filings, policies and procedures, and internal control updates
Consolidated tax advisors and consultants to one national firm
Issued a policy for Employee Business Travel & Expense (T&E) Reimbursement
Restructured our Corporate Card Program to have all recurring/corporate expenses managed through AP and limit the individual cards to T&E only
Introduced weekly cash flow forecasting process to manage vendor payments and company cash requirements
Created a Company Intranet that allows for policies and procedures to be posted and easily accessed by employees

During the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, management, with the help of our third-party consulting firm, performed walkthroughs of our key controls, including those that would be necessary to effectively remediate the existing material weaknesses.  A walkthrough is performed to gain comfort regarding the design effectiveness of the key controls.  Based on our assessment of the walkthrough results, we have determined that our key controls have been designed

effectively.  Further assessments will be made of these controls to ascertain operating effectiveness, after which we will be able to determine if the existing material weaknesses have been remediated.

WithThere have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the first quarter of 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2022.Based upon the evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a.With oversight from the Audit Committee, management will continue to design and implement remediation measures to address the material weaknesses described above and enhance our internal control over financial reporting.  We will strive to ensure that a proper, consistent tone is communicated throughout the organization, which emphasizes the expectation that previously existing deficiencies will be rectified through implementation of processes and controls to ensure strict compliance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and regulatory requirements.

Other than described above, there have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a).

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.Legal Proceedings

We are currently not involved in any litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of our

executive officers, threatened against or affecting us, or our common stock, in which an adverse decision could have a material adverse effect.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the factors disclosed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-KT10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021, except as set forth below.

Risks Related to Our Financial Condition

We have entered into debt arrangements, including non-revolving and revolving lines of credit secured by all of our assets; indebtedness thereunder could adversely affect our financial position and our ability to raise additional capital and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations.

As of July 31, 2022, we owed an aggregate of $11,536,285 in principal and accrued interest on debt arrangements.  This debt includes an aggregate of $5,194,029 in principal and accrued interest under the 2022 Notes and 2023 Notes, which will convert into shares of common stock simultaneously with the closing of the proposed offering pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No. 333-262416), $6.2 million under our Non-Revolving Line of Credit Loan Agreements (the “Loan Agreements”) with certain lenders (which will remain outstanding following our proposed offering) and $2.0 million under our Loan and Security Agreement (the “Revolving Loan Agreement”) with a third party lender for a revolving loan credit facility (which will remain outstanding following our proposed offering). The Revolving Loan Agreement provides for an initial eligible extension of credit in the principal sum of up to $4.0 million, and through the exercise of an accordion feature, a total sum of up to $10 million.  The Loan Agreements provide for a maturity of the indebtedness borrowed thereunder of 18 months from their respective effective date and interest, payable semi-annually in arrears, at a fixed rate equal to 12% per year. The loan under the Revolving Loan Agreement matures July 29, 2024 and accrues interest on the unpaid principal balance of advances, payable monthly in arrears, beginning on September 7, 2022, at an annual rate equal to the greater of (I) the sum of (i) the “Prime Rate” as reported in the “Money Rates” column of The Wall Street Journal, adjusted as and when such Prime Rate changes, plus (ii) zero percent (0.00%), and (II) four percent (4.00%).  Under the Revolving Loan Agreement, we have granted to the lender (the “Senior Lender”) a first-priority security interest in all of our present and future property and assets, including products and proceeds thereof. In connection with the Revolving Loan Agreement, our existing secured lenders under the Loan Agreements delivered subordination agreements to the Senior Lender. We also may incur additional indebtedness in the future.  

Our indebtedness may:

46

Table of Contents

limit our ability to borrow additional funds for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other general business purposes in some circumstances;
require us to use a portion of our cash flow from operations to make debt service payments instead of other purposes, thereby reducing the amount of cash flow available for future working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, or other general business purposes;
increase our vulnerability to the impact of adverse economic, competitive and industry conditions; and
increase our cost of borrowing.

In addition, the Revolving Loan Agreement has restrictive covenants, including covenants preventing us from effecting a change of control, disposing of our assets outside of the ordinary course of business, incurring additional debt (subject to certain exceptions), changing our business as currently conducted, paying dividends or settling claims involving the collateral under the Revolving Loan Agreement. These covenants have the potential to prevent us from pursuing beneficial opportunities, or raising additional funds through debt financing. Further, the amount of our indebtedness under our debt arrangements compared to the size of our company, or other factors, may limit our ability to borrow additional funds or take other actions. In addition, we may be unable to repay the indebtedness incurred under our debt arrangements at maturity and, in such situation, may not be able to refinance such debt on favorable terms or at all. Any inability to repay or refinance the indebtedness under our loan agreements at maturity may cause us to be in default, which would allow the holders of such indebtedness to exercise remedies as a secured lender and, in such event, would have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.

Risks Related to Our Business

We are dependent on key distributors. The loss of any such key distributor or any delay or interruption in the distribution of our products or services could adversely impact our revenue and operations.

We rely on third-party distributors and affiliates to distribute our Loop Player and promote our services. These third parties may have varying expertise in marketing and selling our products and services and may also sell other devices and services that could result in less focus on our products and services.

If these distributors and affiliates terminate their relationships with us or under-perform, we may be unable to maintain or increase our active Loop Players and our level of revenue. We will also need to engage additional distributors and affiliates to grow our business and expand our OOH client base. These third parties may not commit the necessary resources to market and sell our products and services to the level of our expectations. If current or future distributors and affiliates do not perform adequately, our revenue and operations will be adversely affected.

If there is a delay or interruption in the distribution of our products or services or if these third parties damage our products or mischaracterize our services, it could negatively impact our revenue and operations and may require significant management attention. In addition, any negative impact these third parties may have on our services, could expose us to potential liability, damage our reputation and the reputation of our products, services or brands, or otherwise harm our business.

The market for programmatic advertising in the benefits of our ad-supported service digital out-of-home market is evolving. If this market develops slower or differently than we expect, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We derive the vast majority of revenue from programmatic advertising directed at the DOOH market. We expect that programmatic advertising will continue to be a major source of our revenue for the foreseeable future. If the market for programmatic advertising in the DOOH market deteriorates or develops more slowly or differently than we expect, it could reduce demand for our platform and our business, growth prospects and financial condition could be adversely affected.

We derive a significant portion of our revenues from advertisements. If we are unable to continue to compete for these advertisements, or if any events occur that negatively impact our relationships with advertising networks, our advertising revenues and operating results would be negatively impacted.

Table of Contents

We generate advertising revenue from the sale of digital video advertising delivered through advertising impressions across the Loop Network. We engage with advertising demand partners and advertising agencies to monetize our inventory of advertising impressions by filling such advertising impressions with advertising from companies seeking to advertise in the DOOH market. We need to maintain good relationships with these advertising demand partners to provide us with a sufficient number of advertisements and to ensure they understand the value of our advertising impressions on our Loop Network. Online advertising is an intensely competitive industry. Many large companies, such as Amazon, Facebook and Google, invest significantly in data analytics to make their websites and platforms more attractive to advertisers. Our advertising revenue is primarily a function of the number of free users and hours of engagement of such free users and our ability to maintain or increase user engagement and satisfaction with our services and enhance returns for our advertising partners. If our relationship with any advertising demand partners terminates for any reason, or if the commercial terms of our relationships are changed or do not continue to be renewed on favorable terms, or if we cannot source high-quality advertisements consistent with our brand or product experience, our business, growth prospects and financial condition could be adversely affected.

If our efforts to attract prospective customers and advertisers and to retain existing customers and users of our

services are not successful, our growth prospects and revenue will be adversely affected.

Our ability to grow our business, including DOOH, and generate revenue depends on retaining, expanding, and

effectively monetizing our customer base, including by increasing the number of OOH venues that have adopted our services and increasing advertising revenue on our DOOH ad-supported service delivered through our Loop Player and our Partner Network and monetizing content across our DOOH business. We must convince prospective DOOH and Partner Network customers of the benefits and value of our services. Our ability to attract new customers, retain existing customers, and convert users of our DOOH subscription service to our DOOH ad-supported service depends in large part on our ability to continue to offer compelling curated content, leading technologies and products like the Loop Player, superior functionality, and an engaging customer experience.

In addition, in order for us to increase our advertising revenue, we also seek to increase the viewing time that our ad-supported DOOH customers spend on our ad-supported service and find new opportunities to deliver advertising to users on the services. The more content customers stream on the ad-supported service, the more advertising inventory we generally are able to sell. Further, growth in our ad-supported user base increases the size and scope of user pools targeted by advertisers, which improves our ability to deliver relevant advertising to those users in a manner that maximizes our advertising customers’ return on investment and that ultimately allows us to better demonstrate the effectiveness of our advertising solutions and justifies a pricing structure that is advantageous for us. If we fail to grow our ad-supported DOOH customer base, the amount of content streamed, and the viewing time spent by our ad-supported DOOH customers, we may be unable to grow ad-supported revenue.

In order to increase our ad-supported O&O Network and Partner Network customers, we will need to address a number of challenges, including:

improving our ad-supported service;
providing users with a consistently high-quality and user-friendly experience;
continuing to curate a catalog of content that consumers want to engage with on our services; and
continuing to innovate and keep pace with changes in technology and our competitors.

Failure to overcome any one of these challenges could have a material adverse effect on our business,

operating results, and financial condition.

Our Partner Network business began in May 2022, and as of the date of this report is composed of only one partner relationship and is currently limited to 17,000 screens. While we are looking to expand this line of business, there can be no assurance that we will be able to grow this business as planned, increase the number of customers we service in this business or maintain our current level of activity with our current partner relationship, particularly in light of our limited operating history in this line of business. If we lose our relationship with the current partner, or such relationship is scaled back significantly, such loss would be material to our results of operations.

If our acquired intangible assets become impaired in the future, we may incur significant impairment charges.

At least annually, or whenever events or circumstances arise indicating impairment may exist, we review goodwill for impairment as required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP). In 2020, we recorded an impairment charge of $6.4 million related to the impairment of intangible assets acquired in 2019. Additionally, during the 12 months ended September 30, 2021, we recorded an impairment charge of $11.2 million, a portion of which was related to a $1.4 million write-off of intangible assets related to our acquisition of SPKR, Inc and an intangible asset impairment of $2.6 million and a goodwill impairment of $4.4 million related to our EON Media acquisition.As of June 30, 2022, we had remaining goodwill of approximately $2.0 million.

In the future, we may need to further reduce the carrying amount of goodwill and incur additional non-cash charges to our results of operations. Such charges could have the effect of reducing goodwill with a corresponding impairment expense and may have a material effect upon our reported results. The additional expense may reduce our reported profitability or increase our reported losses in future periods and could negatively affect the value of our securities, our ability to obtain other sources of capital, and may generally have a negative effect on our future operations.2022.
