Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

We have prepared our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included herein pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted pursuant to these rules and regulations, although we believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading. In our opinion, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, our consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, the interim results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2018 and 2017, and 2016, and cash flows for the sixthree months ended June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 and 2016.2017. Operating results for the three and six monththree-month period ended June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future interim period. These interim statements have not been audited. The balance sheet as of December 31, 20162017 was derived from our audited consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K.

RecentRecently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Accounting for Goodwill Impairment, to simplify financial reporting by eliminating the need to determine the fair value of individual assets and liabilities of a reportingreporting unit to measure goodwill impairment.  Under ASU 2017-04, an entity should perform its goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, up to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.  The new guidance effectively eliminates “Step 2” from the previous goodwill impairment test.  ASU 2017-04 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019.  Early adoption is permitted for goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017.  We have not determined if we will adopt the new guidance early, but do not expectin the adoptionfourth quarter of ASU 2017-04 to have a significantthe current fiscal year when we perform our annual goodwill impairment analysis, with no expected impact on the results of our goodwill impairment testing.results.


In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The new standard establishes a right-of-use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income


statement. The new standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Based on our preliminary assessment, we do not expect the new standard to have a material impact on our reported financial position or results of operations.

In May 2014,2. Revenue Recognition

Our primary source of revenues are from subscription fees. Subscribers are billed in advance at the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The standard superseded most previous revenue recognition rules,start of their subscription and will become effective for us inrevenues are recognized ratably over the first quarter of 2018. The core principlesubscription period. Revenues are presented net of the standard istaxes that an entity should recognize revenueare collected from members and remitted to depictgovernmental authorities. We are the transfer of promised goods or servicesprincipal in our partner relationships where we retain control over delivery to customers in an amount that reflectssubscribers. For relationships where the considerationpartner controls the entity expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Our revenue transactions typically consist of a single distinct, fixed-price performance obligation that is delivereddelivery to the customer atsubscriber, we recognize revenues on a single point in time, or over anet basis. Typically, payments made to partners for joint marketing activities are expensed.

Deferred revenue consists of subscription period. We are monitoring the evolving interpretations and implementation guidance. Based on our preliminary assessment, we dofees billed that have not expect the new standard to have a material impact on our reported financial position or results of operations.

2. Discontinued Operations

On May 4, 2016, we sold our 51.4% equity interest in Natural Habitat, Inc., our eco-travel subsidiary, in exchange for $12.9 million in cash, and recognized a gain of $10.3 million as disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed May 10, 2016.

On July 1, 2016, we sold the assets and liabilities of our Gaiam Brand business in exchange for a gross purchase price of $167 million, subject to closing expenses and post-closing adjustments, as disclosed in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed May 10, 2016 and July 8, 2016. Our Gaiam Brand business previously constituted thebeen recognized. The vast majority of our consolidated revenues and expenses, and consisted of Gaiam branded yoga, fitness and wellness consumer products.

deferred revenue is related to subscription fees that are expected to be recognized as revenue within the next month. The Gaiam Brand business and our interest in our eco-travel subsidiary constituted allremaining deferred revenue balance is related to annual subscriptions, which will be recognized as revenue over the assets and liabilities of our Gaiam Brand segment. The assets and liabilities, operating results, and cash flows of our Gaiam Brand segment are presented as discontinued operations, separate from our continuing operations, for all periods presented in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements and footnotes, unless otherwise indicated.

The loss from discontinued operations forremaining subscription period, which is expected to occur over the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, as reported on our condensed consolidated statements of operations, were comprised of the following amounts:

3. Equity and Share-Based Compensation

During the first sixthree months of 2017,2018, we issued 1,017452 shares of our Class A common stock under our 2009 Long-Term Incentive Plan to our independent directors, in lieu of cash compensation, for services rendered in 2017.2018. We valued the shares issued to our independent directors at estimated fair value based on the closing price of our shares on the date the shares were issued, which by policy is the last trading day of each quarter in which the services were rendered.


During the first sixthree months of 20172018 and 2016,2017, we recognized $0.9 million$254,000 and $0.1 million$413,000, respectively, of associated stock compensation expense. Total share-based compensation expense is reported in selling and operating expenses and corporate, general and administration expenses on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. There were 6,00029,800 options exercised during the first sixthree months of 2017,2018, with net proceeds of $30,000.$0.2 million.

4. Net Loss per Share

Basic net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potential shares of common stock, underlyingincluding stock options and restricted stock units, to the extent dilutive. Basic and diluted net loss per share were the same for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2018 and 2017, and 2016 respectively, as the inclusion of all underlyingpotential common shares outstanding would have been anti-dilutive.

The income tax benefit recorded during 2018 is a result of our historical alternative minimum tax payments becoming fully refundable in 2018. Periodically, we perform assessments of the realization of our net deferred tax assets considering all available evidence, both positive and negative. With the sale of the Gaiam Brand business in 2016, we utilized the majority ofBased on our deferred tax assets to offset the associated gains from the sale and released the valuation allowance we had in place.

As of June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, our gross net operating loss carryforwards were $14.2$40.0 million and $0.7$12.9 million for federal and state, respectively.


6. Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings that we consider to be in the normal course of business. Claimed amounts against us may be substantial but may not bear any reasonable relationship to the merits of the claim or the extent of any real risk of court or arbitral awards. We record accruals for losses related to those matters against us that we consider to be probable and that can be reasonably estimated. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters with certainty, it is reasonably possible that some legal proceedings may be disposed of or decided unfavorably to us and in excess of the amounts currently accrued. Based on available information, in the opinion of management, settlements, arbitration awards and final judgments, if any, that are considered probable of being rendered against us in litigation or arbitration in existence at June 30, 2017March 31, 2018 and that can be reasonably estimated are either reserved against or would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Selling and operating expenses. Selling and operating expenses increased $5.6 million, or 111.6%, to $10.6 million during the second quarter of 2017 from $5.0 million during the second quarter of 2016 and, as a percentage of net revenue, increased to 161.1% during the second quarter of 2017 from 118.9% during the second quarter of 2016.

Corporate, general and administration expenses remained the same during the second quarter of 2017 compared to the same period of 2016 at $1.4 million and, as a percentage of net revenue, decreased to 21.9% during the second quarter of 2017 from 34.0% during the second quarter of 2016, due to increased revenues in 2017.

Income from discontinued operations. The operations of the Gaiam Brand segment are included in income from discontinued operations for the second quarter of 2016.

Net loss. As a result of the above factors, net loss was $(6.3) million, or $(0.42) per share, during the second quarter of 2017 compared to a net loss of $(2.4) million, or $(0.10) per share, during the second quarter of 2016. The 2017 per share amount reflects the repurchase of approximately 40% of the company’s outstanding shares in July 2016.

Seasonality

Our subscriber basemember growth exhibits a seasonal pattern that reflects seasonal variations driven primarily by when consumers buy Internet-connectedinternet-connected devices and, thus,as a result, tend to increase their viewing, likesimilar to those of traditional TV and cable networks. Our member growth is generally greatest in the fourth and first quarterquarters (October through March), and slowest in the May through August period. This drives quarterly variationsAs we expand internationally, we expect regional seasonality trends to demonstrate more predictable seasonal patterns as our service offering in our spending on customer acquisition efforts, but does not driveeach market becomes more established and we have a corresponding seasonality in net revenue.long history to such patterns.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our capital needs arise from working capital required to fund operations, capital expenditures related to acquisition and development of media content, development and marketing of our digital platforms, acquisitions of new businesses and other investments, replacements, expansions and improvements to our infrastructure, and future growth. These capital requirements depend on numerous factors, including the rate of market acceptance of our offerings, our ability to expand our customer base, the cost of ongoing upgrades to our offerings, our level of expenditures for marketing, and other factors. Additionally, we will continue to pursue opportunities to expand our media libraries, evaluate possible investments in businesses and technologies, and increase our marketing programs as needed. At June 30, 2017,March 31, 2018, our cash balance was $36.9$50.7 million. We estimate that our capital expenditures, including investments in our media library, will total approximately $6.5$9.0 million to $13.0 million for the remainder of 2017,2018, which will be funded through our available cash balance.

Since 2007, we have had an active shelf registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission for 5,000,000 shares of our Class A common stock. In March 2018, we completed an underwritten public offering of 2,683,333 shares of our Class A common stock under the shelf registration, which included 350,000 shares of Class A common stock issued pursuant to the over-allotment option granted to our underwriters, at a public offering price of $15.00 per share. We received net proceeds of approximately $37.1 million after deducting underwriting discountsand to date no shares have been issued under our current shelf registration.commissions and offering costs.

In the normal course of our business, we investigate, evaluate and discuss acquisition, joint venture, minority investment, strategic relationship and other business combination opportunities in our market. For any future investment, acquisition or joint venture opportunities, we may consider using then-available liquidity, issuing equity securities or incurring indebtedness.

While there can be no assurances, we believe our cash on hand, cash expected to be generated from operations, cash that could be raised by the sale of our stock, and current and potential borrowing capabilities should be sufficient to fund our operations on both a short-term and long-term basis. In addition, we own our corporate headquarters and could enter into additional financing or a sale/leaseback transaction to provide additional funds. However, our projected cash needs may change as a result of acquisitions, product development, unforeseen operational difficulties or other factors.
