~~NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES~~

~~Organization~~ – Liberated Syndication, Inc. (the “Company”, “we,” or “us”) was organized on September 30, 2015. Webmayhem, Inc. (“Libsyn”), a Pennsylvania corporation, currently a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, was originally organized on January 1, 2001. Libsyn provides podcast hosting services for producers of content. Libsyn also offers ad insertion on certain of the producers’ content.

Libsyn offers an enterprise solution for professional media producers and corporate customers and a premium subscription service that provides producers a custom app and a podcast website where listeners can access their show, login to purchase a subscription, and get access to premium content.

On December 27, 2017, the Company purchased all the issued and outstanding shares of Pair Networks Inc. (“Pair”), a Pennsylvania corporation, and subsidiaries Ryousha Kokusai, LLC (“Ryousha”) and 660837NB, Inc. (“NB”), in a transaction accounted for as a purchase.

Basis of Presentation –

Our financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and include our accounts and the accounts of our subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Our interim financial statements are unaudited, and in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the periods presented. The results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any subsequent period or for the year ending December 31, 2020.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Form 10-K”).

Accounting Estimates –

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management made assumptions and estimates for determining accounts receivable reserves, depreciation of fixed assets, deferred taxes and in determining the impairment of definite life intangible assets and goodwill. Actual results could differ from those estimated by management.

Our more significant estimates include:

●

the assessment of recoverability of long-lived assets, including property and equipment, goodwill and intangible assets;

●

the estimated reserve for refunds;

●

the estimated useful lives of intangible and depreciable assets;

●

the grant date fair value of equity-based awards; and

●

the recognition, measurement, and valuation of current and deferred income taxes.

~~LIBERATED SYNDICATION INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES~~

~~NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued~~

We periodically evaluate these estimates and adjust prospectively, if necessary. We believe our estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, actual results may differ from our estimates.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Cash and Cash Equivalents –

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity date of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. At ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the Company had ~~$19,018,386~~$13,494,298 of cash balances in excess of federally insured limits.

Depreciation –

Depreciation of property and equipment is provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives.

Accounts Receivable –

Accounts receivable consist of trade receivables arising in the normal course of business. At ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had an allowance for doubtful accounts of $14,000 and $14,000, respectively, which reflects the Company’s best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable balance. The Company determines the allowance based on known troubled accounts, historical experience, and other currently available evidence. During the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not adjust the allowance for bad debt.

Definite-life intangible assets –

The Company evaluates its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of the asset to the future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of the asset.

Technology Costs-

Software development costs associated with software to be sold, leased, or for internal use are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility, defined as a working model or prototype, has been established. At that time, such costs are capitalized until the product is available for general release. To date, costs incurred between the completion of a working model and the point at which the product is ready for general release have been insignificant. Accordingly, the Company has expensed all such costs to technology expense during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019. Technology costs totaled ~~$1,158,852~~$1,754,245 and ~~$911,789~~$1,390,161 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Technology costs totaled ~~$577,782~~$595,393 and ~~$457,151~~$478,372 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Goodwill –

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment annually on December 31, and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill may not be recoverable. Triggering events that may indicate impairment include, but are not limited to, a significant adverse change in customer demand or business climate that could affect the value of goodwill or a significant decrease in expected cash flows. Management noted no triggering events during the quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020.

Advertising Costs –

Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and amounted to ~~$101,398~~$178,729 and ~~$42,508~~$64,254 for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Advertising costs totaled ~~$62,133~~$77,331 and ~~$21,065~~$21,746 for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments –

The Company accounts for fair value measurements for financial assets and financial liabilities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820. The authoritative guidance, which, among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is defined as the exit price, representing the amount that would either be received to sell an asset or be paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. As a basis for considering such assumptions, the guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

●

Level 1. Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

●

Level 2. Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

●

Level 3. Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

~~The fair value of the equity-based awards during the second quarter of 2020 were determined based on market prices on the grant date.~~

The fair value of the Company’s equity-based awards recorded in the Company’s financial statements ~~during the first quarter of 2019 was~~are determined using a Monte Carlo simulation valuation methodology based upon a Geometric Brownian Motion stock path, a Level 3 ~~measurement.~~measurement, or Black-Scholes modeling, as appropriate. Volatility ~~was~~is based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock over commensurate periods. The expected life ~~was~~is based on the contractual term of the award, and the risk-free interest rate ~~was~~is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury Securities with a maturity similar to the awards’ expected life.

~~Unless otherwise disclosed, the~~Assets and liabilities reported at fair value on a recurring basis:

Included in this agreement was a right for our former CEO to put to the company up to 550,000 shares of ~~the Company’s financial instruments including cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses,~~common stock at a price of $2.50 per share between December 30, 2020 and December 29, 2021. The corresponding put option liability has been recorded as a short term liability and included in accounts payable ~~deferred revenue and accrued expenses approximates their recorded values due to their short-term maturities.~~on the balance sheet. The put option was valued using a Black-Scholes put model. The company used the following inputs for the put option:

●

Revenue Recognition -

The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC Topic 606. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised services is transferred to our customers, in an amount reflecting the consideration we expect to be entitled to in exchange for those services.

Certain products are generally sold with a right of return within our policy, which are accounted for as variable consideration when estimating the amount of revenue to recognize. Refunds are estimated at contract inception using the expected value method based on historical refund experience and updated each reporting period as additional information becomes available and only to the extent it is probable a significant reversal of any incremental revenue will not occur. Refunds reduce deferred revenue at the time they are granted and result in a reduced amount of revenue recognized over the contract term of the applicable service compared to the amount originally expected.

Our revenue is categorized and disaggregated as follows:

Domains -– Domains revenue primarily consists of domain registrations and renewals, domain privacy, domain application fees, domain back-orders, aftermarket domain sales and fee surcharges paid to the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (“ICANN”). Domain registrations provide a customer with the exclusive use of a domain during the applicable contract term. After the contract term expires, unless renewed, the customer can no longer access the domain. Consideration is recorded as deferred revenue when received, which is typically at the time of sale, and revenue, other than for aftermarket domain sales, is recognized over the period in which the performance obligations are satisfied, which is generally over the contract term. Aftermarket domain revenue is recognized when ownership of the domain is transferred to the buyer.

Hosting Services -– Hosting services revenue primarily consists of website hosting products, website building products and services, website security products, an online shopping cart and online visibility products and email accounts. Consideration is recorded as deferred revenue when received, which is typically at the time of sale, and revenue is recognized over the period in which the performance obligations are satisfied, which is generally over the contract term.

Podcast Hosting -– Podcast hosting publishing services are billed on a month to month basis, with the first month’s bill prorated to the end of the month so all performance obligations are satisfied at each month-end. Consideration is recorded as revenue as the services, the underlying performance obligation, are provided or satisfied and collection is probable which is generally when received.

Media Subscription Services -– The Company facilitates the sale of producers’ premium content through the sale of subscriptions. The amount earned per transaction is fixed with the producers determining the price for the sale of each subscription, and the Company earns a percentage of what the customer pays. The performance obligation is providing the subscription hosting medium and billing services. Accordingly, the Company reports premium subscription revenue on a net basis over the subscription service period in which the performance obligation is satisfied.

Advertising -– The Company recognizes revenue from the insertion of advertisements in digital media. The performance obligation is the download of the digital media with the advertisement inserted. The performance obligation to recognize advertising revenue is satisfied upon delivery of the media download and when collection is probable.

~~NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued~~

Equity-Based Compensation -

Our equity-based awards are comprised of stock and are accounted for using the fair value method. Stock is measured based on the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Awards vest and compensation is recognized over the requisite service period. The measurement date for performance vesting awards is the date on which the applicable performance criteria are approved by our board of directors.

Leases –

The Company accounts for leases in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 842. Leases that meet one or more of the finance lease criteria are recorded as a finance lease, and all other leases are operating leases.

Earnings Per Share –

The Company computes earnings per share in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 260, which requires the Company to present basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share when the effect is dilutive (see Note 9)10).

Income Taxes –

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes. This topic requires an asset and liability approach for accounting for income taxes (see Note 7)8).

Recently Enacted Accounting Standards -

Recent accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB did not or are not believed by management to have a material impact on the Company’s present or future financial statements.

Dedicated servers

Dedicated servers provide yet another level of security and performance for those who need more processing power or storage. Servers are built to customer specifications and tuned for performance, reliability and efficiency to meet the demand of more robust applications. Through Pair QuickServe (QS), a powerful hosting solution with tremendous capacity and speed, servers are ready for a customer’s use quickly and fully managed to keep them up to date.

Pair hosting also offers self-managed service through server collocation, which delivers the advantages of the powerful infrastructure that was built behind the fully managed offerings.

In connection with an ongoing IRS examination, the Company has been asked to provide certain financial records supporting tax returns previously filed by Fab Universal Corp.

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")), which we refer to as disclosure controls, are controls and procedures that are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act, such as this report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms. Disclosure controls are also designed with the objective of ensuring that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any control system. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that its objectives are met. No evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our ~~company~~Company have been detected.

An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Principal Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2020, the design and operation of these disclosure controls were not effective to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level due to limited accounting and reporting personnel and a lack of segregation of duties due to limited financial resources and the size of our Company. On an on-going basis we will evaluate the adequacy of our controls and procedures.

The Company anticipates management attestation related to compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act as of either the third quarter of 2021 or the first quarter of 2022. We are in the process of engaging a project partner to support the implementation of a compliant internal control regime and anticipate starting an implementation project for Section 404 compliance in the first quarter of 2021.

(b) Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act), occurred during the fiscal quarter ended ~~June~~September 30, 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

On April 24, 2020, John Busshaus, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer, filed a complaint against the Company with the American Arbitration Association (AAA) asserting claims arising from his employment relationship with the Company, including, inter alia, claims for wages, compensation and benefits, and claims of unlawful discharge and wrongful termination. Mr. Busshaus claims that he resigned for “Good Reason” as defined in Section 8(c) of his Employment Agreement pursuant to which he claims to be entitled to the “Effect of Termination” under Section 9(c) of the Employment Agreement. The Company denies Mr. Busshaus’ claims in their entirety and intends to vigorously defend its position.

Item 1A. Risk ~~Factors~~.Factors

The COVID-19 pandemic may adversely impact our business, results of operations and financial position.

Our operations and business could be disrupted and materially adversely affected by the recent outbreak of COVID-19. ~~The spread of COVID-19 from China to other countries~~While the Company has ~~resulted~~taken mitigating actions in the World Health Organization declaring the outbreak of COVID-19 as a “pandemic,” or a worldwide spread of a new disease, on March 11, 2020. Many countries around the world have imposed quarantines and restrictions on travel and mass gatherings to slow the spread of the virus. With respect to global financial markets, the continuing and significant decline in the Dow Industrial Average from the end of February through March 2020 has been largely attributed to the effects of COVID-19. We are still assessing our business operations and system supports, ~~and the impact COVID-19 may have on our results and financial condition,~~ including ~~requirements that we arrange~~arranging for employees to work remotely, ~~but~~ there can be no assurance that ~~this analysis~~these actions will enable us to avoid part or all of any impact from the spread of COVID-19 or its consequences, including downturns in business conditions generally or in our sector in particular.

The Company may be subject to state income taxes it has not paid, collected from our customers or reserved for on our financial statements, which could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The Company has also underreported the personal income and failed to withhold sufficient Federal withholding taxes for certain employees, officers and directors which will result in a future Federal income tax liability.

On June 21, 2018, the United States Supreme Court rendered a decision in South Dakota v. Wayfair, Inc., holding that a state may require a remote seller with no physical presence in the state to collect and remit sales tax on goods and services provided to purchasers in the state, overturning certain existing court precedent.

The Company has failed to apportion revenue and file 2019 and 2020 state and local sales and income tax returns in the manner required by the Wayfair decision. We have evaluated our state tax filings with respect to the Wayfair decision and are in the process normalizing our related tax practices. The Company has engaged a state sales tax compliance firm and is currently conducting an effort to accomplish appropriate apportionment and normalize its state and federal filings for sales, use, and income taxes. The Company does not anticipate having a detailed estimation of the taxes owed and associated normalization costs until the early 2021. The tax liability is therefore currently not estimable. The company anticipates completing the estimation and booking a reserve as part of its fourth quarter results.

It is possible that one or more jurisdictions may assert that we have liability for periods for which we have not collected sales, use or other similar taxes, and if such an assertion or assertions were successful it could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results. In addition, one or more jurisdictions may change their laws or policies to apply their sales, use or other similar taxes to our operations, and if such changes were made it could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and operating results.

During the third quarter of 2020, the Company determined that it had incorrectly reported the personal income related to its restricted stock vesting events in 2017, 2018, and 2019. The Company underreported such personal income, failed to report the income in a timely fashion and failed to withhold Federal withholding taxes at an appropriate level. As a result, the Company has begun to amend its quarterly payroll tax filings and to issue amended reports of income to the impacted employees, officers and directors. The total amount of underreported personal income across the three years is $3.8 million. The Company expects to complete its normalization efforts, including amending its annual Federal and state income tax returns, by the first quarter of 2021. The Company is unable estimate the total tax liability related to this error until it receives assessment calculations from the IRS.
