Explanatory Note

The Registrant has prepared this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (this “Amendment”) to amend its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended November 30, 2015, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 19, 2016 (the “Original Filing”), to correct certain errors related to the Registrant’s accounting treatment with its deconsolidated affiliate (RealBiz Media Group, Inc.) which were identified in June of 2016, in connection with the preparation of the Registrant’s consolidated annual financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 29, 2016 and the resulting restatement of its financial statements included in the Original Filing. See Note 2 in the unaudited consolidated financial statements included herewith for more information. In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, currently dated certifications by our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed as exhibits to this Amendment.

Due to the error, as further described below, and based upon the recommendation of management, the Registrant’s Board of Directors determined on May 31, 2016 that the Registrant’s previously issued audited financial statements should no longer be relied upon. As a result of the foregoing, the Registrant has previously restated its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2015, the quarter ended May 31, 2015 and the quarter ended August 31, 2015.

Except for the restated financial statements included herein; additional language added to Note 1 of the consolidated unaudited financial statements included herein (the “Financial Statements”) under “Principles of Consolidation”; new Note 2 to the Financial Statements; updates to the numbering of the other footnotes in the Financial Statements in connection with the addition of Note 2; removal of prior Note 7 to the Financial Statements; updates to the “Results of Operations” section of this filing to correspond to the restated Financial Statements; updates to the “Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds” section, to confirm the exemption relied upon for the issuance and sale of the securities described therein, and other minor corrections, changes and updates throughout this filing, this Amendment speaks as of the date of the Original Filing, does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the Original Filing and does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Filing.

This Amendment replaces and supersedes the Original Filing and readers should disregard the Original Filing in its entirety.

Nature of Operations and Business Organization

Monaker Group, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Monaker”, “we”, “our”, “us”, or “Company”) operate an online marketplace for the alternative lodging rental industry. Alternative lodging rentals (ALRs) are whole unit vacation homes or timeshare resort units that are fully furnished, privately owned residential properties, including homes, condominiums, villas and cabins, that property owners and managers rent to the public on a nightly, weekly or monthly basis. As an added feature to our ALR offerings, we also provide access to airline, car rental, hotel, cruise and activities products along with concierge tours and activities, at the destinations, that are catered to the traveler through our Maupintour products.

We provide a vacation rental platform with auxiliary services so travelers can purchase vacations through our websites that include NextTrip.com, Maupintour.com and EXVG.com or through distributors of the Company’s ALRs, while providing inquiries and bookings to property owners and managers. NextTrip serves three major constituents: (1) property owners and managers, (2) travelers, and (3) other distributors. Property owners and managers provide detailed listings of their properties to the Company with the goal of reaching a broad audience of travelers seeking ALRs. The property owners and managers provide us their properties, at a preferential net rate for each booking and, in return, their properties are listed for free as an available ALR on NextTrip.com (as well as other distributors of the Company’s ALRs). Travelers visit NextTrip.com (as well as other distributors of the Company’s ALRs) and are able to search and compare our large and detailed inventory of listings to find ALRs meeting their needs.

Interim Financial Statements

 

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“US GAAP”GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, the consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included and such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 20152017 and notes thereto and other pertinent information contained in our Form 10-K the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”SEC).

 

The results of operations for the ninesix months ended November 30, 2015August 31, 2017, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending February 29, 2016.28, 2018.

 

Principles of Consolidation

 

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly ownedwholly-owned subsidiaries. All material inter-company transactions and accounts have been eliminated in consolidation.


At February 28, 2014, the Company owned a 61% interest in RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (“RealBiz”), which owned an 85% interest in RealBiz Holdings, Inc. On October 31, 2014, the Company’s interest dropped to 43% in RealBiz, as a result of the conversion of our Series A Preferred Stock into common stock of RealBiz. These entities’ accounts are no longer consolidated in the accompanying financial statements because we no longer have a controlling financial interest in such entities. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated. The 34% non-controlling interest in RealBiz at November 30, 2015 is represented by 48,621,133 shares of RealBiz Series A Preferred Stock with an annual dividend rate of 10% and 10,359,890 shares of RealBiz common stock issued and outstanding as of November 30, 2015. The shares of RealBiz Series A Preferred Stock and common stock have been written down to zero ($0) to reflect the realizable value of this investment. In addition, the Company is owed in excess of $10 million in funds as a net receivable balance due from RealBiz for amounts paid for the benefit of or on behalf of RealBiz. The net receivable from RealBiz has been written down to zero ($0) to reflect the net realizable value of the asset.

 

Noncontrolling Interest and Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The Company accounts for its less than 100% interest in consolidated subsidiaries in accordance with ASC Topic 810, Consolidation, and accordingly the Company presents noncontrolling interests as a component of equity on its consolidated balance sheets and reports noncontrolling interest net loss under the heading “Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest” in the consolidated statements of operations. Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for by either the equity or cost methods, generally depending upon ownership levels. The equity method of accounting is used when the Company’s investment in voting stock of an entity gives it the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the investee, which is presumed to be the case when the Company holds 20% to 50% of the voting stock of, or can otherwise demonstrate significant influence over, the investee. Unconsolidated affiliate companies in which the Company does not have significant influence and owns less than 20% of the voting stock are accounted for using the cost method. These investments in unconsolidated affiliates are assessed periodically for impairment and are written down if and when the carrying amount is considered to be permanently impaired.

Deconsolidation

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements on the accrual basis of accounting consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). In accordance with accounting guidance for consolidation, prior to the Deconsolidation Date of October 31, 2014, the accompanying consolidated financial statements present the consolidated results of the Company including its investment in RealBiz. On the deconsolidation date, in accordance with ASC 810-10-50-1B and the voting interest model, which basically requires that an entity consolidate another entity if it owns a majority (greater than 50%) of that other entity. Monaker commenced accounting for its investments in RealBiz in accordance with the equity method of accounting as of the Deconsolidation Date.

Use of Estimates

 

The Company’s significant estimates include allowance for doubtful accounts, valuationpreparation of intangible assets, stock based compensation, accrued expenses and derivative liabilities. Thesefinancial statements in conformity with 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 consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenuesrevenue and expenses during the reporting period. While the Company believes that such estimates are fair when considered in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, the actual amounts of such estimates, when known, will vary from these estimates. If actualperiods. Actual results significantlycould differ from those estimates. These differences could have a material effect on the Company’s estimates, the Company’s financial condition andfuture results of operations could be materially impacted.and financial position. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include certain revenues, the carrying amounts of indefinite-lived intangible assets, depreciation and amortization, the valuation of stock warrants, and deferred income taxes.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

For purposes of balance sheet presentation and reporting of cash flows, the Company considers all unrestricted demand deposits, money market funds and highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of less than 90 days to be cash and cash equivalents. The Company had no cash equivalents at November 30, 2015August 31, 2017 and February 28, 2015.2017.

 

Website Development Costs

 

The Company accounts for website development costs in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 350-50 “WebsiteWebsite Development Costs”Costs. Accordingly, all costs incurred in the planning stage are expensed as incurred, costs incurred in the website application and infrastructure development stage that meet specific criteria are capitalized and costs incurred in the day to day operation of the website are expensed as incurred. The Company placed into service in June 2013 two websites, Maupintour.com and Nexttrip.com. Additionally, the Company placed into service in March 2014 the Nestbuilder website. All costs associated with thesethe websites are subject to straight-line amortization over a three-year period. For the nine months ended November 30, 2015, the Company has capitalized $915,392 of costs associated with the Name Your Fee employment website that has not yet been placed into service. Websites related to RealBiz have been deconsolidated from the financial statements as of October 31, 2014.

 

Software Development Costs

 

The Company capitalizes internal software development costs subsequent to establishing technological feasibility of a software application in accordance with guidelines established by “ASC 985-20-25”ASC 985-20-25 Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed, requiring certain software development costs to be capitalized upon the establishment of technological feasibility. The establishment of technological feasibility and the ongoing assessment of the recoverability of these costs require considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors such as anticipated future revenue, estimated economic life, and changes in software and hardware technologies. Amortization of the capitalized software development costs begins when the product is available for general release to customers. Capitalized costs are amortized based on the greater of (a) the ratio of current gross revenues to the total current and anticipated future gross revenues, or (b) the straight-line method over the remaining estimated economic life of the product. SoftwareFor the six months ended August 31, 2017 and the year ended February 28, 2017, all software has been placed in service and all costs associated with the software development costs related to RealBiz have been deconsolidated from the financial statements as of October 31, 2014.expensed.

 


Impairment of Intangible Assets

 

In accordance with ASC 350-30-65 “GoodwillGoodwill and Other Intangible Assets”Assets, the Company assesses the impairment of identifiable intangible assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Factors the Company considers important, which could trigger an impairment review include the following:

 

1. Significant underperformance compared to historical or projected future operating results;

2. Significant changes in the manner or use of the acquired assets or the strategy for the overall business; and

3. Significant negative industry or economic trends.

 

When the Company determines that the carrying value of an intangible asset may not be recoverable based upon the existence of one or more of the above indicators of impairment and the carrying value of the asset cannot be recovered from projected undiscounted cash flows, the Company records an impairment charge. The Company measures any impairment based on a projected discounted cash flow method using a discount rate determined by management to be commensurate with the risk inherent to the current business model. Significant management judgment is required in determining whether an indicator of impairment exists and in projecting cash flows. The Company recordeddid not record an impairment charge on its intangible assets for $0 and $125,000 during the ninesix months ended November 30, 2015August 31, 2017 and 2014,2016, respectively. Intellectual propertiesIntangible assets that have finite useful lives are amortized over their useful lives.lives once placed into service. During the period ended August 31, 2017, the Company’s website has been deployed. The Company incurred amortization expense of $54,846$70,385 and $1,260,415$414,897 on its intangible assets, website, for the ninesix months ended November 30, 2015August 31, 2017 and 2014,2016, respectively.

 

Convertible Debt Instruments

 

The Company records debt net of debt discount for beneficial conversion features and warrants, on a relative fair value basis. Beneficial conversion features are recorded pursuant to the Beneficial Conversion and Debt Topics of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The amounts allocated to warrants and beneficial conversion rights are recorded as debt discount and as additional paid-in-capital. Debt discount is amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

 

Derivative Instruments

 

The Company enters into financing arrangements that consist of freestanding derivative instruments or are hybrid instruments that contain embedded derivative features. The Company accounts for these arrangements in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification topic 815, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities (“ASC 815”815) as well as related interpretations of this standard. In accordance with this standard, derivative instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and are measured at fair values with gains or losses recognized in earnings. Embedded derivatives that are not clearly and closely related to the host contract are bifurcated and are recognized at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as either a gain or loss in earnings. The Company determines the fair value of derivative instruments and hybrid instruments based on available market data using appropriate valuation models, considering all of the rights and obligations of each instrument.

 

The Company estimates fair values of derivative financial instruments using various techniques (and combinations thereof) that are considered consistent with the objective measuring fair values. In selecting the appropriate technique, the Company considers, among other factors, the nature of the instrument, the market risks that it embodies and the expected means of settlement. For less complex derivative instruments, such as freestanding warrants, the Company generally uses the Black-Scholes model, adjusted for the effect of dilution, because it embodies all of the requisite assumptions (including trading volatility, estimated terms, dilution and risk free rates) necessary to determine the fair value of these instruments. Estimating fair values of derivative financial instruments requires the development of significant and subjective estimates that may, and are likely to, change over the duration of the instrument with related changes in internal and external market factors. In addition, option-based techniques (such as Black-Scholes model) are highly volatile and sensitive to changes in the trading market price of our common stock. Since derivative financial instruments are initially and subsequently carried at fair values, our income (expense) going forward will reflect the volatility in these estimates and assumption changes. Under the terms of thethis accounting standard, increases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and increases in fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative expense. Conversely, decreases in the trading price of the Company’s common stock and decreases in trading fair value during a given financial quarter result in the application of non-cash derivative income.

 

Based upon ASC 815-25, the Company has adopted a sequencing approach regarding the application of ASC 815-40 to its outstanding convertible debentures. Pursuant to the sequencing approach, the Company evaluates its contracts based upon earliest issuance date.


Reclassification

Common Stock

 

On October 28, 2011,For comparability, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified, where appropriate, to conform to the Board and the holders of a majority of the voting power of our shareholders approved an amendment to our articles of incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 200,000,000 to 500,000,000. On February 13, 2012, the Board and the holders of a majority of the voting power of our shareholders approved an amendment to our articles of incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 500,000,000 to 2,500,000,000.financial statement presentation used in 2017. The increase in our authorized shares of common stock became effective upon the filing of the amendment(s) to our articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada.reclassifications have no impact on net loss.

 

On May 2, 2012, the Board consented to (i) effect a 1-to-500 reverse split of the Company’s common stock and (ii) reduce the number of authorized shares from 2,500,000,000 to 5,000,000. Such actions became effective upon the filing of the amendment(s) to our articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

On June 26, 2012, the Board and the holders of a majority of the voting power of our shareholders approved an amendment to our articles of incorporation to increase our authorized shares of common stock from 5,000,000 to 500,000,000.


On June 25, 2015, the Board consented to (i) effect a 1-to-50 reverse split of the Company’s common stock and (ii) change the name of the Company from Next 1 Interactive, Inc. to Monaker Group, Inc. Such actions became effective upon the filing of the amendment(s) to our articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada. The consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect this reverse stock split.

Earnings per Share

 

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing net income or loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share isare computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock, common stock equivalents and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during each period. Diluted loss per common share is not presented because it is anti-dilutive.

 

Revenue recognition

Travel

Gross travel tour revenues represent the total retail value of transactions booked for both agency and merchant transactions recorded at the time of booking, reflecting the total price due for travel by travelers, including taxes, fees and other charges, and are generally reduced for cancellations and refunds. The Company also generates revenue from paid cruise ship bookings in the form of commissions. Commission revenue is recognized at the date the price is fixed or determinable, the delivery is completed, no other significant obligations of the Company exist and collectability is reasonably assured. Payments received before all of the relevant criteria for revenue recognition are satisfied are recorded as unearned revenue.

Media

Our no longer consolidated subsidiary RealBiz’s marketing and promotional services are provided to agents or brokers via a web-based portal that allows for credit card payments. Customers may pay a monthly recurring fee or an annual fee. Some customers additionally pay a one-time set up fee. Monthly recurring fees are recognized in the month the service is rendered. Collection of one-time set up fees and annual services fees give rise to recognized monthly revenue in the then-current month as well as deferred revenue liabilities representing the collected fee for services yet to be delivered.

Under these policies, no revenue is recognized unless persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, delivery has occurred, the fee is fixed or determinable, and collection is deemed reasonably assured. The Company considers an insertion order signed by the client or its agency to be evidence of an arrangement.

Cost of Revenues

Cost of revenues, for the travel segment, includes costs directly attributable to services sold and delivered. These costs include such items as amounts paid for airlines, hotels, excursions, sales commissions to business partners, industry conferences and public relations costs. Cost of revenues, for the media segment, include such items as credit card fees, sales commission to business partners, expenses related to our participation in industry conferences, and public relations expenses.

Sales and Promotion

Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of advertising and promotional expenses, salary expenses associated with sales and marketing staff, expenses related to our participation in industry conferences, and public relations expenses. The goal of our advertising is to acquire new subscribers for our e-mail products, increase the traffic to our web sites, and increase brand awareness.

Advertising Expense

Advertising costs are charged to expense as incurred and are included in selling and promotions expense in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Advertising expense for the nine months ended November 30, 2015 and 2014, was $14,203 and $272,714, respectively.

Share Based Compensation

The Company computes share based payments to employees in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 718-10 “Compensation” (ASC

718-10). ASC 718-10 establishes standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services at fair value, focusing primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employees services in share-based payment transactions. It also addresses transactions in which an entity incurs liabilities in exchange for goods and services that are based on the fair value of an entity’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of those equity instruments. Equity instruments issued to non-employees for goods or services are accounted for at fair value and marked to market until service is complete or a performance commitment date is reached, whichever is earlier, in accordance with ASC 505-50.

In March 2005, the SEC issued SAB No. 107, Share-Based Payment (“SAB 107”) which provides guidance regarding the interaction of ASC 718-10 and certain SEC rules and regulations. The Company has applied the provisions of SAB 107 in its adoption of ASC 718-10.


Warrant Modifications

The Company treats a modification of the terms or conditions of an equity award in accordance with ASC Topic 718-20-35-3 by treating the modification as an exchange of the original award for a new award. In substance, the entity repurchases the original instrument by issuing a new instrument of equal or greater value, incurring additional compensation cost for any incremental value. Incremental compensation cost shall be measured as the excess, if any, of the fair value of the modified award determined in accordance with the provisions of this Topic over the fair value of the original award immediately before its terms are modified, measured based on the share price and other pertinent factors at that date.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Income Taxes,” which requires, among other things, an asset and liability approach to calculating deferred income taxes. The asset and liability approach requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax bases of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is provided to offset any net deferred tax assets for which management believes it is more likely than not that the net deferred asset will not be realized.

The Company follows the provisions of the ASC 740-10 related to, Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions. When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for uncertain tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for uncertain tax benefits.

The Company has adopted ASC 740-10-25 Definition of Settlement, which provides guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits and provides that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. As of November 30, 2015, the Company’s income tax returns for tax years ending February 28, 2015, 2014, 2013, and 2012 remain potentially subject to audit by the taxing authorities.

Monaker follows the guidance of ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred income taxes reflect the net effect of (a) temporary difference between carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial purposes and the amounts used for income tax reporting purposes, and (b) net operating loss carry- forwards. No current tax provision has been made in the accompanying statement of income (loss) because no taxes are due currently or were paid previously. Similarly, no deferred tax asset attributable to the net operating loss carry-forward has been recognized, as it is not deemed likely to be realized.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs). The hierarchy consists of three levels:

 

Level 1: Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities traded in active markets.

 

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.

 

Level 3: Inputs that are generally unobservable. These inputs may be used with internally developed methodologies that result in management’s best estimate of fair value.

 

Financial instruments consist principally of cash, accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable, accrued liabilities notes payable, convertible notes and other current liabilities. The carrying amounts of such financial instruments in the accompanying balance sheets approximate their fair values due to their relatively short-term nature. The fair value of long-term debt is based on current rates at which the Company could borrow funds with similar remaining maturities. The carrying amounts approximate fair value. It is management’s opinion that the Company is not exposed to any significant currency or credit risks arising from these financial instruments. See Note 16 for fair value measurements.

 

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

We have implemented all new relevant accounting pronouncements that are in effect through the date of these financial statements. These pronouncements did not have any material impact on the financial statements unless otherwise disclosed, and we do not believe that there are any other new accounting pronouncements that have been issued that might have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made in the unaudited consolidated financial statements for comparative purposes. These reclassifications have no effect on the results of operations or financial position of the Company.

The updated standard will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective and permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The updated standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim reporting periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and permits early adoption a year ended February 29, 2016, certain errors related toearlier, after December 15, 2016. The Company has not yet selected a transition method and is currently evaluating the Company’s accounting treatment with its deconsolidated affiliate relating to amounts due to affiliates were identified.

Due to these errors, as further described below, and based upon the recommendation of management, the Company’s Board of Directors determined on June 15, 2016effect that the Company’s previously issued audited financial statements for the year ended February 28, 2015, should no longer be relied upon. As a result of the foregoing, the Company has restatedupdated standard will have on its consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2015, and the quarters ended May 31, 2015, August 31, 2015, and November 30, 2015 (which are included herein).related disclosures.

 

On October 27, 2015In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. This guidance requires an entity to recognize lease liabilities and a right-of-use asset for all leases on the balance sheet and to disclose key information about the entity’s leasing arrangements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that reporting period, with earlier adoption permitted. ASU 2016-02 must be adopted using a modified retrospective approach for all leases existing at, or entered into after the date of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary AOV Holding, Inc. acquired Always On Vacation, Inc. for $1,188,000 in common stock.initial adoption, with an option to elect to use certain transition relief.

Note 3 – Going Concern

As reflected in the accompanyingupdated standard will have on its consolidated financial statements the Company had an accumulated deficit of $93,925,793, a working capital deficit of $3,819,950 at November 30, 2015, a net loss for the nine months ended November 30, 2015 of $4,913,920 and cash used in operations during the nine months ended November 30, 2015 of $1,523,535. While the Company is attempting to increase sales, the growth has yet to achieve significant levels to fully support its daily operations. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management plans to address this this going concern by continuing to raise funds with third parties by way of a public or private offering. Management and members of the Board are working aggressively to increase the viewership of our products by promoting it across other mediums which should increase value to advertisers and result in higher advertising rates and revenues.related disclosures.

 

While the Company believes in the viability of its strategy to improve sales volume and in its ability to raise additional funds, there can be no assurances to that effect. The Company’s limited financial resources have prevented the Company from aggressively advertising its products and services to achieve consumer recognition. The ability of the Company to continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to further implement its business plan and generate greater revenues. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to further implement its business plan and generate additional revenues provide the opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.Note 2 – Note Receivable

Note 3 – Investment in Equity Instruments and Deconsolidation

 

OurWe assess the potential impairment of our equity method investments when indicators such as a history of operating losses, negative earnings and cash flow outlook, and the financial condition and prospects for the investee’s business segment might indicate a loss in value.

In connection with the purchase of the stock of the entity that eventually became RealBiz Media Group, Inc., the Company issued 380,000 shares of Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares with a value of $1,900,000, which was considered the $1,200,000 value of the stock portion of the purchase price, and was also meant to guaranty the payment of the balance of $700,000.

Litigation related to RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (“RealBiz”)

Case Number 1:16-cv-61017-FAM

On May 11, 2016, RealBiz filed a Complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the “Complaint”). The Complaint alleges $1,287,517 is due from us to RealBiz, and seeks the recovery of such amount, plus pre-judgment interest from October 31, 2015 and costs. The Complaint alleges causes of action including ‘account stated’ and ‘unjust enrichment’.


On May 19, 2016, we filed an Answer and Counterclaim to the Complaint (the “Counterclaim”) denying RealBiz’s allegations and claims and pleading affirmative defenses including ‘failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted’, ‘set-off’ rights (including that if there was any amount owed, RealBiz’s obligation to us far exceeded the $1.3 million amount that RealBiz alleges is due to it), ‘mistake or error’, ‘unclean hands’, ‘waiver’, ‘release’, ‘breach of contract’ (we allege there was an oral agreement that all intercompany balances would be written–off) and ‘rescission of letter addressing partial balance due’ (confirming that a letter upon which RealBiz’s case is predicated was rescinded shortly after its issuance and is of no force or effect). The Counterclaim against RealBiz alleges causes of action including ‘unjust enrichment’ (we allege that the net amount due to us from RealBiz is in excess of $10 million dollars if there is no oral agreement), ‘money had and received’, and ‘breach of contract’ (we allege there was an oral agreement that all intercompany balances would be written–off), and seeks recovery of all actual damages, consequential damages and incidental damages, if any, including but not limited to attorney’s fees and costs, plus-prejudgment and post-judgment interest. We believe the claims asserted in the Complaint, as amended, are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the lawsuit while simultaneously seeking damages against RealBiz. The Company has no basis for determining whether there is any likelihood of material loss associated with the claims and/or the potential and/or the outcome of the litigation.

Note 15 – Segment ReportingContractual Settlement

 

In May 2017, we entered into a settlement with a financial advisory firm who was engaged to raise capital per an agreement signed in October 2016. Based upon the firms inability to meet any of the agreed upon milestones, the firm agreed to return all the consideration paid for the services. The Company recorded $450,945 credit to stock compensation in May 2017 as a result of the settlement.

Note 11 – Business Segment Reporting

Accounting Standards Codification 280-16 “Segment Reporting”Segment Reporting, established standards for reporting information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial statements and required selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to stockholders. It also established standards for related disclosures about products, services, and geographic areas. Operating segments are defined as components of the enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker, or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The Company currently has only one segment in full operation, Travel. In the prior year, the Company had consolidated RealBiz and had a second segment, real estate media which is no longer reported.

The Company did not generate any revenue outside the United States for the nine months ended November 30, 2015 and 2014 and did not have any assets located outside the United States.

Note 16 – Fair Value Measurements

 

The Company has adoptedone operating segment consisting of various products and services related to its online marketplace of travel and related logistics including destination tours / activities, accommodation rental listings, hotel listings, air and car rental. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is considered to be the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP,Chief Executive Officer. The chief operating decision maker allocates resources and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the sourceassesses performance of the information. The fair value hierarchy distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs)business and an entity’s own assumptions (unobservable inputs).

The hierarchy consists of three levels: 

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

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

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

Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

The Company analyzes all financial instruments with features of both liabilities and equity under ASC 480, “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity” and ASC 815, “Derivatives and Hedging”. Derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with an increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives. Effects of interactions between embedded derivatives are calculated and accounted for in arrivingother activities at the overall fair value of the financial instruments. In addition, the fair values of freestanding derivative instruments such as warrant and option derivatives are valued using the Black-Scholes model.single operating segment level.

 


The Company uses Level 3 inputs for its valuation methodology for the warrant derivative liabilities and embedded conversion option liabilities as their fair values were determined by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model based on various assumptions. The Company’s derivative liabilities are adjusted to reflect fair value at each period end, with any increase or decrease in the fair value being recorded in results of operations as adjustments to fair value of derivatives.Note 12 – Subsequent Events

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations are based upon its consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these unaudited financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent liabilities. On an on-going basis, management evaluates past judgments and estimates, including those related to bad debts, accrued liabilities, convertible promissory notes and contingencies. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The accounting policies and related risks described in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 16, 2015May 8, 2017 are those that depend most heavily on these judgments and estimates. As of November 30, 2015,August 31, 2017, there had been no material changes to any of the critical accounting policies contained therein.

3. The Home & Away Club (H&AC). The Company has launched the Home & Away Club website and is both targeting existing customers and new potential customers to the site by offering up to $500 Rewards so consumers can try before they buy.

The Company intends to utilize targeted video for the travel, leisure, home products and services to engage and enable viewers to request information, make reservations and get an in-depth look at products and services the Club offers. The Company created a points based program for real estate agents that utilize the RealBiz services. With the Home and Away club, agents can earn dollars for completing actions and can receive greatly discounted gifts to give to their happy clients. This allows real estate agents the ability to earn and/or purchase Home and Away Club membership for themselves and/or gifting to their customers. The membership gives the homeowner access to wholesale pricing on travel, lifestyle and home products while providing the real estate agents a loyalty platform that allows them the means to stay in contact with their customer.

Sufficiency of Cash Flows

Because current cash balances and our projected cash generated from operations are not sufficient to meet our cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures, management intends to seek additional equity or obtain additional credit facilities. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to issue additional capital upon terms acceptable to us. The sale of additional equity will result in additional dilution to our shareholders. A portion of our cash may be used to acquire or invest in complementary businesses or products or to obtain the right to use complementary technologies. From time to time, in the ordinary course of business, we evaluate potential acquisitions of such businesses, products or technologies.

The growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital.

We are subject to all the substantial risks inherent in the development of a new business enterprise within an extremely competitive industry. Due to the absence of ana long standing operating history under the new business model and the emerging nature of the markets in which we compete, we anticipate operating losses until we can successfully implement our business strategy, which includes all associated revenue streams. Our multi-platform media revenue model is new and evolving, and we cannot be certain that it will be successful. The potential profitability of this business model is unproven. We may never ever achieve profitable operations or generate significant revenues. Our future operating results depend on many factors, including demand for our products, the level of competition, and the ability of our officers to manage our business and growth. As a result of the emerging nature of the market in which we compete, we may incur operating losses until such time as we can develop a substantial and stable revenue base. Additional development expenses may delay or negatively impact the ability of the Company to generate revenues depends, among other things, on our ability to create enough viewership to provide advertisers, sponsors, travelers and homebuyers value.profits.

Recent Significant Funding Transactions

Private Placement Offering

On August 11, 2017, the Company closed the transactions contemplated by the Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement, entered into by the Company on July 31, 2017 (the “Purchase Agreement”), with certain accredited investors named therein (collectively, the “Purchasers”). Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold the Purchasers an aggregate of 1,532,500 shares of our common stock (the “Shares”) and 1,532,500 warrants to purchase one share of common stock (the “Offering Warrants” and together with the expectationShares, the “Securities”). The combined purchase price for one Share and one Offering Warrant to purchase one share of profitabilitycommon stock in the Private Placement offering was $2.00.

Pursuant to a Placement Agency Agreement (the “Agent Agreement”) entered into with Northland Securities, Inc. (the “Agent”) on July 31, 2017, in connection with the offering, the Agent served as the Company’s exclusive placement agent for the offering. In consideration therewith, we paid the Agent 8% of the gross proceeds from the sale of the Securities ($245,200) and, for the consideration of $50, sold the Agent a warrant to purchase shares of common stock equal to 5% of the shares sold in the offering (i.e., warrants to purchase 76,625 shares of common stock)(the “Agent Warrants” and collectively with the Offering Warrants, the “Warrants”). The Company also agreed to reimburse up to $150,000 of the expenses of the Agent in connection with the offering. The Placement Agreement includes customary representations and warranties and includes indemnification rights of the Agent. The Agent is also entitled to the registration rights and liquidated damages associated therewith which the Purchasers have pursuant to the Purchase Agreement.

William Kerby, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Company, purchased $50,000 of the Securities (25,000 Shares and Offering Warrants); Simon Orange, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, purchased $175,000 of the Securities (87,500 Shares and Offering Warrants); Donald Monaco, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, purchased $175,000 of the Securities (87,500 Shares and Offering Warrants); Pat LaVecchia, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, purchased $10,000 of the Securities (5,000 Shares and Offering Warrants); and Robert J. Post, a member of the Board of Directors of the Company, purchased $25,000 of the Securities (12,500 Shares and Offering Warrants). Additionally, Stephen Romsdahl, a significant stockholder of the Company, purchased $50,000 of the Securities (25,000 Shares and Offering Warrants) and another non-related party, who is a key distributor of the Company, purchased $100,000 of the Securities (50,000 Shares and Offering Warrants).

The exercise price of the Warrants is $2.10 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein, and the Warrants are exercisable beginning on July 31, 2017 through July 30, 2022. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, and will also be subject to anti-dilution adjustments in the event the Company issues or is deemed to have issued any securities below the then exercise price of the Warrants, subject to certain exceptions (i.e., the Exempt Issuances, described below), during the 12 months following the closing date, each as described in greater detail in the Warrants. If after February 11, 2018, a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”) is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, the Purchasers and the Agent, may exercise the Warrants by means of a “cashless exercise.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed that we will not, and we will ensure that our directors and officers and their affiliates will not, without the prior written consent of all Purchasers, from the date of execution of the Purchase Agreement and continuing to and including the date 90 days after the effective date of the registration statement, of which this prospectus forms a part (the “Lock-Up Period”), (A) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or (B) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the common stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (A) or (B) above is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, however, the Company may conduct an Exempt Issuance (as defined below) without the prior written consent of all Purchasers. “Exempt Issuance” means the issuance of (a) shares of common stock or options to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority of the non-employee members of the board of directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date of the Purchase Agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date of the Purchase Agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise or conversion price of any such securities, and (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided any such issuance shall only be to a person which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities.


Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed that until the 12 month anniversary of the closing of the offering, i.e., August 11, 2018, if the Company or any subsidiary thereof issues or agrees to issue any (i) common stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time common stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, common stock, except for the Exempt Issuances, entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price per share less than $2.00, within three trading days of the date thereof the Company is required to issue to such Purchaser additional shares of common stock based on the formula set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or Form S-3, if available) with the SEC (the “Registration Statement”) within 45 days following the closing of the offering (which date was September 25, 2017, and which Registration Statement was timely filed) to register the resale of the Shares and Warrant Shares and to cause the Registration Statement to become effective within 120 days following the closing of the offering (which date is December 9, 2017), subject to penalties as described in the Purchase Agreement.

The Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to apply for listing of its common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market within 60 days following the closing of the offering (which date is October 10, 2017) and to cause the Shares to be listed on the NASDAQ no later than 120 days following closing of the offering (which date is December 9, 2017).

The aggregate net proceeds from the offering, after deducting the placement agent’s fees payable in cash (described above) and other estimated offering expenses, were approximately $2.7 million. The Company intends to use the aggregate net proceeds to expand its technology division, increase its alternative lodging rental count, and general corporate purposes.

A required term of the offering was that William Kerby, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, and Donald P. Monaco, our Director, on behalf of themselves and the entities which they control, convert 1,869,611 shares of Series A 10% Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Preferred Stock”) beneficially owned by them into 3,789,222 shares of common stock of the Company, which conversion occurred shortly after the closing of the offering. As a result of the conversion, we no longer have any outstanding shares of preferred stock.

As additional consideration for Pacific Grove Capital LP (“Pacific Grove”), agreeing to participate in the offering as a Purchaser, the Company entered into a Board Representation Agreement with Pacific Grove. Pursuant to the Board Representation Agreement, Pacific Grove will be granted the right to designate one person to be nominated for election to the Company’s Board of Directors so long as (i) Pacific Grove together with its affiliates beneficially owns at least 4.99% of the Company’s common stock, or (ii) Pacific Grove together with its affiliates beneficially owns at least 75% of the Securities purchased in the offering. Notwithstanding its rights under the Board Representation Agreement, Pacific Grove has not provided us notice of any nominees for appointment to the Board of Directors to date.

Wilton Debt Conversion and Voting Agreement

On August 24, 2017, and effective on August 22, 2017, we entered into a Debt Conversion and Voting Agreement with Mark A. Wilton, a significant stockholder of the Company (the “Debt Conversion Agreement”). Pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreement, we converted various promissory notes which Mr. Wilton held in the Company, which had an aggregate principal balance of $1,409,326 and were due and payable on December 17, 2017 (the “Wilton Notes”), into 704,663 shares of our restricted common stock. The conversion was undertaken pursuant to the forced conversion terms of the Wilton Notes, which allowed us to force the conversion of the Wilton Notes into common stock at a conversion price equal to 80% of the 5 day trailing average closing price of our common stock prior to conversion. Additionally, pursuant to the Debt Conversion Agreement, we agreed to pay Mr. Wilton $45,000 in cash, payable at the rate of $15,000 per month in September, October and November, 2017, and Mr. Wilton agreed (a) to vote (and provided William Kerby, our Chief Executive Officer, and any other individual who is designated by us in the future, a proxy to vote), all of the voting shares held by him, in favor of any proposals recommended by the Board of Directors of the Company; and (b) to not transfer any of the voting shares which he held, subject to certain exceptions, until the earlier of August 22, 2020 and the date we provide Mr. Wilton notice of the termination of such voting proxy.

d)Our Technology Platform for Home & Away Club and supporting I.C.E. partnership (collectively (a) through (d), the “Assets”).

Bettwork agreed to pay $2.9 million for the Assets, payable in the form of a Secured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Secured Note”). The amount owed under the Secured Note accrues interest at the rate of (a) six percent per annum until the end of fiscal 2016.the last day of the month in which the sale occurred; and (b) the greater of (i) six percent per annum and (ii) the prime rate plus 3 3/4% per annum, thereafter through maturity, which maturity date is August 31, 2020, provided that the interest rate increases to twelve percent upon the occurrence of an event of default.

The repayment of the Secured Note is secured by a first priority security interest in all of the Assets.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

Market Risk

 

This represents the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in value of a financial instrument because of fluctuations in interest rates and market prices. We do not currently have any trading derivatives nor do we expect to have any in the future. We have established policies and internal processes related to the management of market risks, which we use in the normal course of our business operations.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

(a) Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, under the supervision and

Management, with the participation of our CEO and CFO, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of November 30, 2015. Based upon thatthe end of the period covered by this report. As of August 31, 2017, based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO concluded that, as of November 30, 2015, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as a result of the material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting described below.

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s CEO and CFO to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP. Internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that our transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and our directors; and

(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Additionally, we have determinedconcluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective at theto provide reasonable assurance level duethat information required to the lack of an independent audit committee or audit committee financial expert which represents a material weakness as reportedbe disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K,our reports filed with the SEC on June 16, 2015.

PART II – OTHER
INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

 

The Company is involved, from time to time, in litigation, other legal claims and proceedings involving matters associated with or incidental to our business, including, among other things, matters involving breach of contract claims, intellectual property, employment issues, and other related claims and vendor matters. The Company believes that the resolution of currently pending matters will not individually or in the aggregate have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. However, assessment of the current litigation or other legal claims could change in light of the discovery of facts not presently known to the Company or by judges, juries or other finders of fact, which are not in accord with management’s evaluation of the possible liability or outcome of such litigation or claims.

On March 28, 2016, the Company was presented with a Demand for Arbitration, pursuant to Rule 4(a) of the American Arbitration Association Commercial Rules of Arbitration, whereby Acknew Investments, Inc. and Vice Regal Developments Inc. (Claimants) are arguing that $700,000 is due to them, even though they have already been paid said amounts through preferred shares that were issued as a guarantee and which Claimants converted into shares of common stock. In connection with the purchase of the stock of the entity that eventually became RealBiz Media Group, Inc., the Company issued 380,000 shares of Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares with a value of $1,900,000, which was considered the $1,200,000 value of the stock portion of the purchase price, and was also meant to guaranty the payment of the balance of $700,000. The Company contends that the obligation to pay the $700,000 was extinguished with the conversion of the Monaker Series D Preferred Stock shares into shares of common stock. The date for arbitration has not been set and the Company will vehemently defend its position.

On June 2, 2016, the Company paid an arbitration award of $81,572 ($73,959 plus interest of $7,613) to Twelfth Child Entertainment, LLC for a License Agreement settlement for rights to air programs regarding “Foreclosure to Fabulous” television programming on the Company’s previously owned media business that was sold on January 21, 2016. The Company absorbed this settlement as part of its partnership commitment with Launch Media 360 which is an investment of the Company.

Litigation related to RealBiz Media Group, Inc. (“RealBiz”)

Case Number 1:16-cv-61017-FAM

On May 11, 2016, RealBiz filed a Complaint against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Florida (the “Complaint”). The Complaint alleges $1,287,517 is due from us to RealBiz, and seeks the recovery of such amount, plus pre-judgment interest from October 31, 2015 and costs. The Complaint alleges causes of action including ‘account stated’ and ‘unjust enrichment’.

On May 19, 2016, we filed an Answer and Counterclaim to the Complaint (the “Counterclaim”) denying RealBiz’s allegations and claims and pleading affirmative defenses including ‘failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted’, ‘set-off’ rights (including that if there was any amount owed, RealBiz’s obligation to us far exceeded the $1.3 million amount that RealBiz alleges is due to it), ‘mistake or error’, ‘unclean hands’, ‘waiver’, ‘release’, ‘breach of contract’ (we allege there was an oral agreement that all intercompany balances would be written–off) and ‘rescission of letter addressing partial balance due’ (confirming that a letter upon which RealBiz’s case is predicated was rescinded shortly after its issuance and is of no force or effect). The Counterclaim against RealBiz alleges causes of action including ‘unjust enrichment’ (we allege that the net amount due to us from RealBiz is in excess of $10 million dollars if there is no oral agreement), ‘money had and received’, and ‘breach of contract’ (we allege there was an oral agreement that all intercompany balances would be written–off), and seeks recovery of all actual damages, consequential damages and incidental damages, if any, including but not limited to attorney’s fees and costs, plus-prejudgment and post-judgment interest. We believe the claims asserted in the Complaint, as amended, are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the lawsuit while simultaneously seeking damages against RealBiz. The Company has no basis for determining whether there is any likelihood of material loss associated with the claims and/or the potential and/or the outcome of the litigation.

Case No.: CACE-16-019818

On October 27, 2016, the Company filed a Complaint (Monaker Group, Inc., f/k/a Next 1 Interactive, Inc. v. RealBiz Media Group, Inc., f/k/a Webdigs, Inc. and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (“AST”)) for damages and injunctive relief from the defendant’s unreasonable delay and/or refusal to register the transfer of certain securities. We instructed RealBiz to transfer our preferred or common stock in RealBiz to certain of our shareholders on several occasions. Defendants, however, wrongfully refused to register the transfers in violation of the Delaware Code and the terms of RealBiz’s preferred and common stock.


Case No.: 16-24978-CIV-GRAHAM

On November 16, 2016, RealBiz cancelled the 44,470,101 Series A preferred shares and 10,359,892 common shares which were held by the Company in connection with an alleged over issuance of common shares relating to the conversion of Monaker’s dual convertible preferred shares.

On November 30, 2016, the Company filed a Complaint (Monaker Group, Inc., f/k/a Next 1 Interactive, Inc. v. RealBiz Media Group, Inc., f/k/a Webdigs, Inc. and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC) for damages and injunctive and declaratory relief, arising from RealBiz’s declared cancellation, retirement, and/or termination of certain securities. RealBiz notified Monaker of its intent to unilaterally cancel, retire, and/or terminate its preferred and common stock held by Monaker. RealBiz’s announced cancellation, retirement, and termination was without Monaker’s consent, and done in violation of Delaware law, federal law and the terms of RealBiz’s preferred and common stock.

The Company seeks to reverse all actions taken by RealBiz that adversely and materially affected its rights under the Company’s preferred stock in RealBiz subsequent to the termination and cancellation of our stock or in the alternative obtain damages for terminating and cancelling our stock.

Case No.: 0:16-cv-62902-WJZ

A class action lawsuit has been filed against us, William Kerby, our Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Donald Monaco, our director, and D’Arelli Pruzansky, P.A., our former auditor, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida on behalf of persons who purchased our common stock and exercised options between April 6, 2012 and June 23, 2016 (the “Class Period”). The case, McLeod v. Monaker Group, Inc. et al, was filed on December 9, 2016. The lawsuit focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws and whether the Company’s former auditor was negligent and makes allegations regarding the activities of certain Company executives. The lawsuit alleges and estimates total shareholders losses totaling approximately $20,000,000. The lawsuit stems from the Company’s announcement in June 2016 that it would have to restate its financial statements due to issues related to the Company’s investment in RealBiz. The lawsuit asks the court to confirm the action is a proper class action. We believe the claims asserted in the lawsuit are without merit and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against the claims made in the lawsuit. The Company has no basis for determining whether there is any likelihood of material loss associated with the claims and/or the potential and/or the outcome of the litigation. On February 16, 2017, we filed a Motion to Dismiss the lawsuit and on March 3, 2017, the Court entered an order staying discovery and all other proceedings pending resolution of the Motion to Dismiss.

Case No.: C.A 2017-0189

On March 14, 2017, we filed a lawsuit against RealBiz pursuant to Section 220 of Delaware General Corporation Law, in The Court of Chancery of The State of Delaware seeking relief in the form of an order compelling RealBiz to make available to Monaker, for inspection and copying, certain corporate books and records as demanded by Monaker in a February 27, 2017 letter (the “Demand”). In addition to our statutory right to inspection under Section 220, we have contractual rights to access books and records as outlined in the documents governing our investment in RealBiz. Monaker’s purpose in making the Demand is, among other things, to: (1) determine the status of its investment and interest in RealBiz; (2) determine the appropriateness of certain actions recently announced by RealBiz; (3) investigate suspected wrongdoing by certain officers and directors of RealBiz; and (4) determine whether the RealBiz’s directors advanced their personal interests at the expense of Monaker and other investors. RealBiz has declined to produce the requested books and records despite the Demand and communications between the parties’ counsels, filed a motion to dismiss taking the position that the Company is no longer a shareholder of RealBiz, and has insisted instead that Monaker serve a second request for production in a separate action, Monaker Group, Inc. v. RealBiz Media Group, Inc., No. 1:16-cv-24978-DLG, currently pending in the Southern District of Florida (the “Florida Action”).

Case No.: 2017-0351

On May 8, 2017, we filed a lawsuit in The Court of Chancery of The State of Delaware against Alex Aliksanyan, Thomas Grbelja, Keith White, Warren Kettlewell, Anshu Bhatnagar (collectively, the “Director Defendants”, each former directors of non-party RealBiz) and AST. The action against the Director Defendants is for damages for breaching their fiduciary duties to Monaker and the action against AST is for aiding and abetting those breaches. The suit alleges that the Director Defendants acted in concert to dilute and terminate Monaker’s ownership interest in and control of RealBiz to enrich themselves. The suit also alleges that the Director Defendants entered into self-serving agreements, issued securities below the stated value of the preferred stock as well as the sale of common stock at a substantial discount to the market value and improperly terminated and cancelled Monaker’s preferred and common stock in RealBiz. Finally, the suit alleges that AST aided and abetted the Defendants Directors in converting and eliminating Monaker’s beneficial ownership in RealBiz securities.


The Company is unable to determine the estimate of the probable or reasonable possible loss or range of losses arising from the above legal proceedings.

Contractual Settlement

In May 2017, we entered into a settlement with a financial advisory firm who was engaged to raise capital per an agreement signed in October 2016. Based upon the firms inability to meet any of the agreed upon milestones, the firm agreed to return all the consideration paid for the services. The Company recorded $450,945 credit to stock compensation in May 2017 as a result of the settlement.

Risks Relating to the July/August 2017 Private Placement Offering

We face significant penalties and damages in the event the registration statement required to be filed by us in connection with our August 2017 private placement offering is not declared effective within required time limits or such registration statement is subsequently suspended or terminated, or we fail to receive approval for the listing of our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market by the required deadlines set forth in the July 31, 2017, Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement entered into with certain accredited investors in July 2017, relating to the sale of common stock and warrants, which closed in August 2017 (as described in greater detail above under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” – “Liquidity and Capital Resources” - “Recent Significant Funding Transactions” – “Private Placement Offering”), the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-1 (or Form S-3, if available) with the SEC within 45 days following the closing of the August 2017 private placement offering (which date is September 25, 2017, and which filing deadline was met) to register the resale of the shares sold in connection therewith and the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants sold in connection therewith (collectively, the “Shares and Warrant Shares”) and to cause the registration statement to become effective within 120 days following the closing of the private placement offering (which date is December 9, 2017), subject to penalties as described in the Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement. The Common Stock and Warrant Purchase Agreement also requires the Company to apply for listing of its common stock on June 16, 2015.the NASDAQ Capital Market (“NASDAQ”) within 60 days following the closing of the private placement offering (which date is October 10, 2017) and to cause the shares sold in the private placement offering to be listed on the NASDAQ no later than 120 days following closing of the private placement offering (which date is December 9, 2017). If the registration statement has not been declared effective by the SEC by the deadline set forth above, or if the Company’s common stock is not approved for listing on the NASDAQ Capital Market by the deadline set forth above, we are required to provide each purchaser in the offering (and the placement agent in the offering), as partial liquidated damages for such delay, with additional warrants equal to each purchaser’s (and the agent’s) pro rata share of 1% of the warrants sold in the private placement offering. Such liquidated damages continue to be due, each day that we fail to comply with the requirements above, up to a maximum of 100 days. That is, in no case are we required to issue additional warrants in excess of 200% of the warrants sold in the private placement offering. Additionally, in the event that there occurs a suspension in the availability of the registration statement, after effectiveness thereof, subject to certain exceptions described in the purchase agreement, we are required to pay to each purchaser (and the agent), on the 30th day following the first day of such suspension, and on each 30th day thereafter, an amount equal to 1% of the purchase price paid for the securities purchased by the purchaser (and agent) and not previously sold by the purchaser with such payments to be prorated on a daily basis during each 30 day period, up to a maximum of 6% of the purchase price paid for the securities.


In the event the required registration statement is not declared effective within the required time limits set forth above, or such registration statement is subsequently suspended or terminated, we fail to timely list our common stock on the NASDAQ Capital Market, or we otherwise fail to meet certain requirements set forth in the purchase agreement, we could be required to pay significant penalties which could adversely affect our cash flow and cause the value of our securities to decline in value.

 

The warrants sold in the July/August private offering contain anti-dilution rights. The issuance and sale of common stock upon exercise of the warrants may cause substantial dilution to existing stockholders and may also depress the market price of our common stock.

The exercise price of the warrants sold in the July/August private offering is $2.10 per share, subject to adjustment as provided therein, and the warrants are exercisable beginning on July 31, 2017 through July 30, 2022. The exercise price and number of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants are subject to adjustment in the event of any stock dividends and splits, reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization or similar transaction, and are also subject to weighted average anti-dilution adjustments in the event the Company issues or is deemed to have issued any securities below the then exercise price of the warrants, subject to certain exceptions (i.e., the Exempt Issuances, described below), during the 12 months following the closing date, each as described in greater detail in the warrants. After the six month anniversary of the closing (February 11, 2018), if a registration statement covering the issuance or resale of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not available for the issuance or resale, as applicable, the purchasers and the agent, may exercise the warrants by means of a “cashless exercise.

If exercises of the warrants and sales of such shares issuable upon exercise thereof take place, the price of our common stock may decline. In addition, the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may represent overhang that may also adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Overhang occurs when there is a greater supply of a company’s stock in the market than there is demand for that stock. When this happens the price of the company’s stock will decrease, and any additional shares which stockholders attempt to sell in the market will only further decrease the share price. If the share volume of our common stock cannot absorb shares sold by the Warrant holders, then the value of our common stock will likely decrease.

Subject to certain limited exceptions, we are prohibited from issuing any additional securities until 90 days after the date the registration statement filed to register the Shares and Warrant Shares, is declared effective by the SEC. This may limit our ability to raise funds and operate our business.

Pursuant to the July/August 2017 private offering purchase agreement, we agreed that we will not, and we will ensure that our directors and officers and their affiliates will not, without the prior written consent of all purchasers, from the date of execution of the purchase agreement and continuing to and including the date 90 days after the effective date of the registration statement (the “Lock-Up Period”), (A) offer, pledge, announce the intention to sell, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock or (B) enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the common stock, whether any such transaction described in clause (A) or (B) above is to be settled by delivery of common stock or such other securities, in cash or otherwise, however, the Company may conduct an Exempt Issuance (as defined below) without the prior written consent of all purchasers. “Exempt Issuance” means the issuance of (a) shares of common stock or options to employees, consultants, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by a majority of the non-employee members of the board of directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (b) securities upon the exercise of or conversion of any convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date of the purchase agreement, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date of the purchase agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise or conversion price of any such securities, and (c) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided any such issuance shall only be to a person which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities.

The restrictions and covenants in the purchase agreement, as well as any future financing agreements that we may enter into, may restrict our ability to finance our operations, engage in business activities or expand or fully pursue our business strategies. Our ability to comply with these covenants may be affected by events beyond our control and we may not be able to meet those covenants.


The shares sold pursuant to the July/August 2017 private offering purchase agreement were granted anti-dilution rights for a period of twelve months following the closing of such transaction.

Pursuant to the July/August 2017 private offering purchase agreement, we agreed that until the 12 month anniversary of the closing of the offering, i.e., August 11, 2018, if the Company or any subsidiary thereof issues or agrees to issue any (i) common stock or (ii) any securities of the Company or the subsidiary that would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time common stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, common stock, except for the Exempt Issuances (defined above), entitling any person or entity to acquire shares of common stock at an effective price per share less than $2.00, within three trading days of the date thereof the Company is required to issue to such purchaser additional shares of common stock based on the formula set forth in the purchase agreement.

In the event we issue or are deemed to have issued additional securities for a value less than $2.00, and are required to issue the purchasers additional shares of common stock, it could cause significant dilution to existing stockholders.

If the holders of our common stock sell a large number of shares all at once or in blocks, the market price of our shares would most likely decline.

Up to 3,141,625 shares of common stock may be resold by certain stockholders through our resale registration statement filed to register the Shares and Warrant Shares. Should such holders decide to sell their shares at a price below the market price as quoted on OTCQB, or any exchange on which our common stock might be listed in the future, the price may continue to decline. A steep decline in the price of our common stock upon being quoted on OTCQB, or any exchange on which our common stock might be listed in the future, would adversely affect our ability to raise additional equity capital, and even if we were successful in raising such capital, the terms of such raise may be substantially dilutive to current stockholders.

Risks Related to Our Operations, Business and Industry

In the future, we may need additional capital which may not be available on commercially acceptable terms, if at all.

As of August 31, 2017, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $103,158,633. We had net loss of $1,700,414 and $2,499,001 for the three and six months ended August 31, 2017, respectively. Net loss for the year ended February 28, 2017, amounted to $7,097,275.

The growth and development of our business will require a significant amount of additional working capital, provided that we currently believe that the funds raised in the July/August 2017 offering, together with the revenues we anticipate receiving beginning at the end of October 2017, will be adequate to allow us to be self-sufficient and that we will not need to raise any additional funding in the near term to support our operations. Notwithstanding the above, in the event we need to raise additional funding in the future, such funding may not be available on terms that are acceptable to us and/or may have a dilutive effect on our existing stockholders. Additionally, if we are unable to achieve operational profitability, we will have to evaluate alternative actions to reduce our operating expenses and conserve cash.

In the event we require, and are unable to raise, adequate funding in the future for our operations and to pay our outstanding debt obligations, we may be forced to scale back our business plan and/or liquidate some or all of our assets (or our creditors may undertake a foreclosure of such assets in order to satisfy amounts we owe to such creditors) or may be forced to seek bankruptcy protection, which could result in the value of our outstanding securities declining in value or becoming worthless.

The $2.9 million owed to us under the Secured Convertible Promissory Note due from Bettwork Industries, Inc., may not be repaid timely, if at all.

Effective on August 31, 2017, we entered into a Purchase Agreement with Bettwork, pursuant to which we sold Bettwork certain of our media assets in consideration for a Secured Convertible Promissory Note in the principal amount of $2.9 million. The amount owed under the Secured Note accrues interest at a fluctuating interest rate, based on the prime rate, and is due and payable on August 31, 2020. The repayment of the Secured Note is secured by a first priority security interest in all of the acquired assets. Bettwork may prepay the Secured Note at any time, subject to its obligation to provide us 15 days prior written notice prior to any prepayment. The Secured Note is convertible into shares of Bettwork’s common stock, at our option, subject to a 4.99% beneficial ownership limitation. The conversion price of the Secured Note is $1.00 per share, unless, prior to the Secured Note being paid in full, Bettwork completes a capital raise or acquisition and issues common stock or common stock equivalents (including, but not limited to convertible securities) with a price per share (as determined in our reasonable discretion) less than the Conversion Price then in effect (each a “Transaction”), at which time the Conversion Price will be adjusted to match such lower pricing structure associated with the Transaction (provided such repricing shall continue to apply to subsequent Transactions which occur prior to the Secured Note being paid in full as well).


Bettwork may not timely pay, or may not pay at all, the amounts due pursuant to the terms of the Secured Note. In the event that Bettwork fails to pay the amount due under the Secured Note, we may be forced to attempt to foreclose on the assets securing the note and/or enter into litigation against Bettwork, seeking the payment of the amount due. In the event that Bettwork does not have sufficient capital to pay the amount due, we may be forced to accept a lesser amount of funding from Bettwork. Additionally, in the event that we are forced to foreclose on the assets securing the Secured Note, such assets may not have a value equal to the amount owed under the note and further, there may not be any other buyers for such assets. In the event we convert the amount due under the Secured Note into common stock of Bettwork, such conversion may be at a premium to the market value of Bettwork’s common stock and there may be no market or liquidity for Bettwork’s common stock. In the event of the occurrence of any of the above described events, we may not have sufficient cash flow for our operations, may be forced to expend significant resources in litigation and/or in attempting to enforce our security interest over the assets, which may have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, our ability to maintain any future listing we secure on a national stock exchange, and/or cause the value of our common stock to decline in value.

If we are not able to complete software interfaces with our property owners, managers and distributors, in a timely manner, our business is susceptible to shortfalls in revenues due to delays in remitting our ALRs to distributors and/or ALRs not being available for bookings or distribution.

The Company contracts with property owners and managers to list their ALRs on the Company’s system. Those ALRs are populated into the system through an application programming interface (API) from the property owner and/or manager to the Company. If the technology of the API is inadequate, erroneous or corrupted, the Company may incur delays in populating the ALRs into the Company’s system until the issues related to their API are corrected. These delays could cause delays in realizing revenues from bookings from those additional ALRs.

Also, the Company provides its ALRs to distributors who allow its customers to book those ALRs. The Company makes those ALRs available to distributors through its own API. If the technology of the distributor cannot write the correct program to request the ALRs from the Company’s operating system, the Company may incur delays in making the ALRs available to the distributor until the issues are resolved and the correct program is written by the distributor. These delays could cause delays in realizing revenues from bookings from those ALRs.

If the businesses and/or assets that we have acquired or invested in do not perform as expected or we are unable to effectively integrate acquired businesses, our operating results and prospects could be harmed.

The businesses we have acquired, or invested in, may not perform as well as we expect. Failure to manage and successfully integrate recently acquired businesses and technologies could harm our operating results and our prospects. If the companies we have invested in do not perform well, our investments could become impaired and our financial results could be negatively impacted.

Our mergers and acquisitions involve numerous risks, including the following:

difficulties in integrating and managing the combined operations, technologies, technology platforms and products of the acquired companies and realizing the anticipated economic, operational and other benefits in a timely manner, which could result in substantial costs and delays or other operational, technical or financial problems;
legal or regulatory challenges or post-acquisition litigation;
failure of the acquired company or assets to achieve anticipated revenue, earnings or cash flow;
diversion of management’s attention or other resources from our existing business;


our inability to maintain the key customers and business relationships, and the reputations of acquired businesses;
uncertainty resulting from entering markets in which we have limited or no prior experience or in which competitors have stronger market positions;
our dependence on unfamiliar affiliates and partners of acquired businesses;
unanticipated costs associated with pursuing acquisitions;
liabilities of acquired businesses, which may not be disclosed to us or which may exceed our estimates, including liabilities relating to non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, such as data protection and privacy controls;
difficulties in assigning or transferring to us or our subsidiaries intellectual property licensed to companies we acquired;
difficulties in maintaining our internal standards, controls, procedures and policies including financial reporting requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and extending these controls to acquired companies;
potential loss of key employees of the acquired companies;
difficulties in complying with antitrust and other government regulations;
challenges in integrating and auditing the financial statements of acquired companies that have not historically prepared financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles; and
potential accounting charges to the extent intangibles recorded in connection with an acquisition, such as goodwill, trademarks, customer relationships or intellectual property, are later determined to be impaired and written down in value.

Moreover, we rely heavily on the representations and warranties provided to us by the sellers of acquired companies and assets, including as they relate to creation, ownership and rights in intellectual property, existence of open source software and compliance with laws and contractual requirements. If any of these representations and warranties are inaccurate or breached, such inaccuracy or breach could result in costly litigation and assessment of liability for which there may not be adequate recourse against such sellers, in part due to contractual time limitations and limitations of liability.


Risks Related to Our Securities

Nevada law and our Articles of Incorporation authorize us to issue shares of stock, which shares may cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders.

We have authorized capital stock consisting of 500,000,000 shares of common stock, $0.00001 par value per share and 100,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.00001 par value per share. As of the date of this report, we have [17,473,432] shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding. Additionally, on September 13, 2017, our majority shareholders provided authority to our Board of Directors, without further shareholder approval, to effect a reverse stock split of all of the outstanding common stock of the Company, by the filing of a Certificate of Amendment to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of Nevada, in a ratio of between one-for-one and one-for-four, with the Company’s Board of Directors having the discretion as to whether or not the reverse split is to be effected, and with the exact exchange ratio of any reverse split to be set at a whole number within the above range as determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, at any time before the earlier of (a) September 13, 2018; and (b) the date of the Company’s 2018 annual meeting of stockholders. As a result, our Board of Directors has the ability to issue a large number of additional shares of common stock and/or to affect a reverse stock split, without stockholder approval, and if additional shares are issued, it could cause substantial dilution to our then stockholders. Additionally, shares of preferred stock may be issued by our Board of Directors without stockholder approval with voting powers, and such preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and powers as determined by our Board of Directors, which may be greater than the shares of common stock currently outstanding. As a result, shares of preferred stock may be issued by our Board of Directors which cause the holders to have super majority voting power over our shares, provide the holders of the preferred stock the right to convert the shares of preferred stock they hold into shares of our common stock, which may cause substantial dilution to our then common stock stockholders and/or have other rights and preferences greater than those of our common stock stockholders. Investors should keep in mind that the Board of Directors has the authority to issue additional shares of common stock and preferred stock, which could cause substantial dilution to our existing stockholders. Additionally, the dilutive effect of any preferred stock, which we may issue may be exacerbated given the fact that such preferred stock may have super majority voting rights and/or other rights or preferences which could provide the preferred stockholders with voting control over us subsequent to this offering and/or give those holders the power to prevent or cause a change in control. As a result, the issuance of shares of common stock and/or preferred stock may cause the value of our securities to decrease and/or become worthless.

Our outstanding warrants may adversely affect the trading price of our common stock.

As of the date of this report, there were (i) outstanding warrants to purchase 3,020,745 shares of common stock at a weighted average exercise price of $4.08 per share. For the life of the warrants, the holders have the opportunity to profit from a rise in the market price of our common stock without assuming the risk of ownership. The issuance of shares upon the exercise of outstanding securities will also dilute the ownership interests of our existing stockholders.

The availability of these shares for public resale, as well as any actual resales of these shares, could adversely affect the trading price of our common stock. We cannot predict the size of future issuances of our common stock pursuant to the exercise of outstanding options or warrants or conversion of other securities, or the effect, if any, that future issuances and sales of shares of our common stock may have on the market price of our common stock. Sales or distributions of substantial amounts of our common stock (including shares issued in connection with an acquisition), or the perception that such sales could occur, may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

Our officers and directors together beneficially own approximately 36% of our voting securities which gives them significant influence over the affairs of our Company.

Our executive officers and directors beneficially own approximately 36% of the issued and outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result, they have significant ability to influence matters affecting our stockholders and will exercise significant control in determining the outcome of corporate transactions or other matters, including the election of directors, mergers, consolidations, the sale of all or substantially all of our assets, and also the power to prevent or cause a change in control. Additionally, it will be difficult if not impossible for investors to remove our current directors, which will mean they will remain in control of who serves as officers of the Company as well as whether any changes are made in the Board of Directors. As a potential investor in the Company, you should keep in mind that even if you own shares of the Company’s common stock and wish to vote them at annual or special stockholder meetings, your shares will likely have little effect on the outcome of corporate decisions. Because our executive officers control such shares, investors may find it difficult to replace our management if they disagree with the way our business is being operated. Additionally, the interests of our executive officers may differ from the interests of the other stockholders and thus result in corporate decisions that are adverse to other stockholders.

FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted rules requiring that, in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative or low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA has indicated its belief that there is a high probability that speculative or low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. Because these FINRA requirements are applicable to our common stock, they may make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that at least some of their customers buy our common stock, which may limit the ability of our stockholders to buy and sell our common stock and could have an adverse effect on the market for and price of our common stock.


We are applying for listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market. We may be unable to list our common stock, and if listed, our common stock may not continue to meet Nasdaq Capital Market listing requirements. If we fail to comply with the continuing listing standards of the Nasdaq Capital Market, our securities could be delisted.

We are applying for our common stock to be eligible to be listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. However, our application may not be approved, and an active trading market for our common stock may not develop or continue. If, after listing, we fail to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq Capital Market, such as the corporate governance requirements or the minimum closing bid price requirement, the Nasdaq Capital Market may take steps to delist our common stock. Such a delisting would likely have a negative effect on the price of our common stock and would impair your ability to sell or purchase our common stock when you wish to do so. In the event of a delisting, actions taken by us to restore compliance with listing requirements may not be successful to allow our common stock to become listed again, stabilize the market price or improve the liquidity of our common stock, prevent our common stock from dropping below the Nasdaq Capital Market minimum bid price requirement or prevent future non-compliance with the Nasdaq Capital Market’s listing requirements.

We will incur significant costs to ensure compliance with U.S. and Nasdaq Capital Market reporting and corporate governance requirements.

We will incur significant costs associated with our public company reporting requirements and with applicable U.S. and Nasdaq Capital Market corporate governance requirements (assuming our common stock is approved for listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market), including requirements under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other rules implemented by the SEC and the Nasdaq Capital Market. We expect all of these applicable rules and regulations to significantly increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to make some activities more time consuming and costly. We also expect that these applicable rules and regulations may make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance and we may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified individuals to serve on our Board of Directors or as executive officers.
