Notes to Condensed Consolidated Unaudited Financial Statements

1.	Organization, History and Business

SITO Mobile, Ltd. (“the Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 31, 2000, under its original name, Hosting Site Network, Inc. On May 12, 2008, the Company changed its name to Single Touch Systems, Inc. and on September 26, 2014, it changed its name to SITO Mobile, Ltd.

The Company provides a mobile engagement platform that enables brands to increase awareness, loyalty, and ultimately sales.

Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws

On March 1, 2016, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to reduce the number of authorized shares of common stock from 300,000,000 to 100,000,000 shares.

Change in Fiscal Year

On May 5, 2016, the Company elected to transition from a September 30 year-end to a December 31 year-end effective immediately.

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements include our accounts, as well as those of our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnote disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated results of operations and financial position for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring natures. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended September 30, 2015 and the audited financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements contained in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the transition period from September 30, 2015 to December 31, 2015.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the year ending December 31, 2016.

Reclassification

Certain reclassifications have been made to conform the 2015 amounts to the 2016 classifications for comparative purposes.

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SITO Mobile, Ltd. and it’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, SITO Mobile Solutions Inc., SITO Mobile R&D IP, LLC, SITO Mobile Media Inc. and DoubleVision Networks Inc. (“DoubleVision”). Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers cash and cash equivalents to include all stable, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less.

Accounts Receivable, net

Accounts receivable are reported at the customers’ outstanding balances, less any allowance for doubtful accounts. Interest is not accrued on overdue accounts receivable.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

An allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable is charged to operations in amounts sufficient to maintain the allowance for uncollectible accounts at a level management believes is adequate to cover any probable losses. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance based on historical write-off percentages and information collected from individual customers. Accounts receivable are charged off against the allowance when collectability is determined to be permanently impaired.

SITO Mobile, Ltd.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Property and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Major renewals and improvements are charged to the asset accounts while replacements, maintenance and repairs that do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets are expensed. At the time property and equipment are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and related accumulated depreciation accounts are relieved of the applicable amounts. Gains or losses from retirements or sales are credited or charged to income.

Depreciation is computed on the straight-line and accelerated methods for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes based upon the following estimated useful lives:

	Software development			2- 3 years
	Equipment and computer hardware			5 years
	Office furniture			7 years
	Leasehold Improvements			5 years

Long-Lived Assets

The Company accounts for its long-lived assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-05, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. The Company assesses recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value.

Capitalized Software Development Costs

The Company accounts for costs incurred to develop or purchase computer software for internal use in accordance with ASC Topic 350-40 “Internal-Use Software.” As required by ASC 350-40, the Company capitalizes the costs incurred during the application development stage, which include costs to design the software configuration and interfaces, coding, installation, and testing.

Costs incurred during the preliminary project stage along with post-implementation stages of internal use computer software are expensed as incurred. Capitalized development costs are amortized over a period of two to three years. Costs incurred to maintain existing product offerings are expensed as incurred. The capitalization and ongoing assessment of recoverability of development costs requires considerable judgment by management with respect to certain external factors, including, but not limited to, technological and economic feasibility, and estimated economic life.

Capital Leases

Assets and liabilities under capital leases are recorded at the lower of the present value of the minimum lease payments or the fair value of the leased assets. The assets are depreciated over the lower of their related lease terms or their estimated productive lives. Depreciation of the assets under capital leases is included in depreciation expense.

SITO Mobile, Ltd.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

Debt issuance costs

Deferred debt issuance costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the related term of the debt and are presented on the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the debt liability. The amortization of deferred debt issuance costs is included in interest expense.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for its income taxes under the provisions of ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” The method of accounting for income taxes under ASC 740 is an asset and liability method. The asset and liability method requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between tax bases and financial reporting bases of other assets and liabilities. The Company had no material unrecognized income tax assets or liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 or for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The Company recognizes income tax interest and penalties as a separately identified component of general and administrative expense.

Issuances Involving Non-cash Consideration

All issuances of the Company’s stock for non-cash consideration have been assigned a dollar amount equaling the market value of the shares issued on the date the shares were issued for such services and property. The non-cash consideration paid pertains to consulting services, the acquisition of a software license, the acquisition of DoubleVision Networks Inc. and assets purchased from Hipcricket, Inc.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes media placement revenue based on the activity of mobile users viewing ads through developer applications and mobile websites. Media placement revenues are recognized when the Company’s advertising services are delivered based on the specific terms of the advertising contract, which are commonly based on the number of ads delivered, or views, clicks or actions by users on mobile advertisements. At such time, the Company’s services have been provided, the fees charged are fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and collectability is reasonably assured.

The Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to recognize media placement revenue based on the gross amount billed to the customers or the net amount earned as revenue. When the Company is primarily obligated in a transaction, has latitude in establishing prices, is responsible for fulfillment of the transaction, has credit risk, or has several but not all of these indicators, revenue is recorded on a gross basis. While none of the factors individually are considered presumptive or determinative, in reaching conclusions on gross versus net revenue recognition, the Company places the most weight on the analysis of whether or not it is the primary obligor in the arrangement. The Company records the net amounts as media placement revenue earned if it is not primarily obligated or does not have latitude in establishing prices or credit risk.

The Company recognizes wireless applications revenue based on the delivery of Short Message Service (SMS) text messages and voice messages and messaging program management services. Wireless applications revenues are recognized when the Company’s services are delivered based on the specific terms of the Company’s contracts with customers, which are commonly based on the number of messages delivered. At such time, the Company’s services have been provided, the fees charged are fixed or determinable, persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists, and collectability is reasonably assured.

In general, licensing and royalty revenue arrangements provide for the payment of contractually determined fees in consideration for the patented technologies owned by or controlled by the Company’s operating subsidiary. The intellectual property rights granted may be perpetual in nature, extending until the expiration of the related patents, or can be granted for a defined, relatively short period of time, with the licensee possessing the right to renew the agreement at the end of each contractual term for an additional minimum upfront payment. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, the Company’s operating subsidiary may have no further obligation with respect to the grant of the non-exclusive retroactive and future licenses, covenants-not-to-sue, releases, and other deliverables, including no express or implied obligation on the Company’s operating subsidiary’s part to maintain or upgrade the technology, or provide future support or services Generally, the agreements provide for the grant of licenses, covenants-not-to-sue, releases, and other significant deliverables upon the execution of the agreement, or upon the receipt off the minimum upfront payment for term agreement renewals. As such, when the Company has no further obligation under the agreement, the earnings process is complete and revenue is recognized upon the execution of the agreement, when collectability is reasonably assured, or upon receipt of the minimum upfront fee for term agreement renewals, and when all the other revenue recognition criteria have been met, otherwise the Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement based on the contractually determined fees.

Deferred revenue arises as a result of differences between the timing of revenue recognition and receipt of cash from the Company’s customers.

Stock Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation is accounted for based on the requirements of the Share-Based Payment topic of ASC Topic 718 which requires recognition in the financial statements of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments over the period the employee or director is required to perform the services in exchange for the award (presumptively, the vesting period). The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) also requires measurement of the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award based on the grant-date fair value of the award.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 505-50, for share-based payments to consultants and other third-parties, compensation expense is determined at the “measurement date.” The expense is recognized over the vesting period of the award. The Company records compensation expense based on the fair value of the award at the reporting date.

The value of the stock-based award is determined using the Binomial option-pricing model, whereby compensation cost is the excess of the fair value of the award as determined by the pricing model at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount that must be paid to acquire the stock. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive the benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

Earnings (Loss) per Share

The Company reports earnings (loss) per share in accordance with ASC Topic 260-10, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings (loss) per share are computed by dividing income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares available. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed similar to basic earnings (loss) per share except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued and if the additional common shares were dilutive. Diluted earnings per share has been presented for the three months ended June 30, 2016 due to the Company’s net income position for the three months ended June 30, 2016.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

The Company primarily transacts its business with one financial institution. The amount on deposit in that one institution may from time to time exceed the federally-insured limit.

Of the Company’s revenue earned during the six months ended June 30, 2016, approximately 17% was generated from contracts with six customers covered under the Company’s master services agreement with AT&T and approximately 15% was generated from contracts with an advertising agency. Of the Company’s revenue earned during the six months ended June 30, 2015, approximately 44% was generated from contracts with seven customers covered under the Company’s master services agreement with AT&T.

The Company’s accounts receivable is typically unsecured and are derived from U.S. customers in different industries. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit losses. Historically, such losses have been within management’s expectations. As of June 30, 2016 and 2015, two customers accounted for 27% and 48%, respectively, of the Company’s net accounts receivable balance, respectively.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Business Combinations

The Company accounts for all business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. Under this method, assets and liabilities are recognized at fair value at the date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired, net of liabilities assumed is recognized as goodwill. Certain adjustments to the assessed fair values of the assets, liabilities made subsequent to the acquisition date, but within the measurement period, which is up to one year, are recorded as adjustments to goodwill. Any adjustments subsequent to the measurement period are recorded in income. Results of operations of the acquired entity are included in the Company’s results from the date of the acquisition onward and include amortization expense arising from acquired tangible and intangible assets. The Company expenses all costs as incurred related to an acquisition under general and administrative in the consolidated statements of operations.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes (ASU 2015-17), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by requiring deferred tax assets and liabilities be classified as noncurrent on the balance sheet. The updated standard is effective for the Company beginning on October 1, 2017 with early application permitted as of the beginning of any interim or annual reporting period. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In January 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) “ASU 2016 – 01 Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities” which changes requirements for the presentation and measurement of equity investments at fair value. The updated standard is effective for the Company beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that fiscal year. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued “ASU 2016 – 01 Leases” which requires the Company to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by leases with terms of more than 12 months. The updated standard is effective for the Company on December 15, 2018. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued “ASU 2016 – 09 Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting” which simplifies the accounting for share-based payment award transactions, including; the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity of liabilities, and the classification on the statement of cash flows. The updated standard is effective beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within this annual period. The Company does not expect that the adoption of this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued “ASU 2016 – 10 Revenue from Contract with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing” which clarifies the topics of identifying performance obligations and licensing implementation guidance, while including implementation guidance. This updated standard affects “ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” which is not yet effective. The Company does not expect that this standard will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Related Party Transactions

On April 21, 2014 (the “Effective Date”), SITO Mobile R&D IP LLC, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, through a joint venture arrangement organized as a limited liability company (the “JV”) with Personalized Media Communications, LLC (“PMC”), entered into a Joint Licensing Program Agreement (the “Agreement”) with a national broadcasting entity (“Licensee”) pursuant to which the JV granted the Licensee a term-limited license ( the “License”) to all patents licensable by the JV (“Patents”), including an exclusive license to assert the Patents against certain infringing parties in the media distribution industry. In exchange for the License, the Licensee will pay an annual fee of $1,250,000 for a minimum of three years (“Annual Fee”). Commencing three years from the Effective Date, the Licensee may each year, at its sole option, pay a $1,250,000 license fee to renew the License for every year for four additional years. Once the Licensee has paid a total of $8,750,000 in license fees, either in one lump sum or after paying $1,250,000 annually for seven years, the License is deemed to be perpetual. For Patents infringement actions provided for under the License, the Licensee will pay 20% of the gross proceeds from settlements received less any Annual Fee amounts paid and litigation costs incurred (“Share of Proceeds”). SITO Mobile R&D IP LLC and its joint venture partner will serve as co-plaintiffs with the Licensee in infringement actions under the License and the Licensee will be responsible for any out-of-pocket costs of the JV associated with being a co-plaintiff in supporting Licensee in such litigation, including attorneys’ fees. The Licensee will pay the Annual Fee and any Share of Proceeds to the JV. Proceeds received by the JV are shared by SITO Mobile R&D IP LLC and PMC on a 30% and 70% basis, respectively. In the event that the Licensee does not assert any infringement actions under its rights in the License within five years of the Effective Date, the JV may, at its sole option, choose to terminate Licensee’s exclusive right to assert infringement claims with no reduction or adjustment to the Annual Fee. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, the Company amortized $93,238 and $186,476, respectively, in revenue. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has $303,279 in deferred revenue under the Licensing Agreement.

Fair Value

The Company’s balance sheet includes certain financial instruments. The carrying amounts of current assets and current liabilities approximate their fair values because of the relatively short period of time between the origination of these instruments and their expected realization. The Company determines the fair value of obligations under capital lease, notes payable and convertible debentures based on the effective yields of similar obligations (Level 2).

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions, about market participant assumptions, which are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described below:

Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.

Level 2. Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

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

The Company did not identify any assets and liabilities that are required to be presented on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value. The Company does not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2016. The Company did not have any fair value adjustments for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Overview

We provide a mobile engagement platform that enables brands to increase awareness, loyalty, and ultimately sales.

Our business has focused on leveraging our geo-location based media placement solution on mobile devices. Our Verified Walk-In platform is a proprietary attribution technology that utilizes geo-fencing to reach customers within a certain radius of location and uses technology to push coupons, advertisements, and promotions to mobile apps and mobile websites in real-time, allowing for a more accurate advertising approach. This technology identifies consumers who visit physical storefronts after seeing advertisements that we distribute. This platform allows our clients to assess mobile-to-offline attribution allowing the ability to quantify and measure the impact of campaigns on in-store visits, leveraging real-time insights on campaign performance through key metrics such as user demographics, psychographics, visitation rates, click-through and time of engagement.

Our portfolio of intellectual property represents our many years’ of innovation in the wireless industry through patented technology that we developed, as well as patented technology we purchased from Microsoft and others. We are dedicated to the monetization of our patents, primarily through licensing agreements that allow others to use our patents in exchange for royalty income and other consideration.

As we expand operational activities and seek new opportunities to monetize our patented technology, we may from time to time experience operating losses and/or negative cash flows from operations and we may be required to obtain additional financing to fund operations. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available to us. Our wireless applications revenue is heavily reliant on a single customer relationship. Our core mobile media business operates in a relatively new and evolving industry that seeks to gain a larger share of business spending which has traditionally been directed toward older established media solutions. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing these challenges and others that we face, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

Results of Operations

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, our revenue increased by 168% over revenue generated during the three months ended June 30, 2015 ($9,878,254 in the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $3,680,878 in the three months ended June 30, 2015). Our revenue growth was primarily comprised of a $6,143,850 or 285% increase in media placement revenue and an increase of $67,115 or 5% increase in wireless application revenue. Media placement revenue increased as a result of expanding our direct sales force and acquiring the mobile advertising business of Hipcricket, Inc. in July 2015. Wireless applications revenue increased due to an increase in the number of text and voice messages that we sent on behalf of our largest customer within our AT&T relationship.

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, two customers accounted for 30% of the Company’s revenue, comprised of 14% from contracts with six customers covered under the Company’s master services agreement with AT&T, and 16% from multiple advertising contracts under one media placement customer. Of our revenue earned during the quarter ended June 30, 2015, approximately 36% was generated from contracts with seven customers covered under our agreements with AT&T.

Our cost of revenue, which represents the costs associated with wireless applications and media placement revenues, increased $2,623,285 or 145% to $4,430,522 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $1,807,237 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Our cost of revenue is substantially in line with media placement and wireless application revenues, and includes depreciation and amortization expense of our mobile engagement technology platforms that we use to operate our wireless applications and media placement business. Cost of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2016 increased as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily as a result of the 285% increase in media placement revenue over the same period, in addition to an $96,198 increase in software development amortization expense. Our technology investment in revenue growth is focused on our mobile engagement platform through software development efforts. We capitalize the cost of developing our mobile engagement platform and amortize our investment over three years. For the three-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recognized $271,199 and $175,001, respectively, in amortization of software development costs due to the increase investment in developing our platform.

General and administrative expense, excluding stock based compensation, remained consistent at $1,343,452 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $1,349,665 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Sales and marketing expense, excluding stock based compensation, was $2,587,559 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $882,477, an increase of $1,705,082 or 193%. This increase is primarily attributable to increased sales and marketing spending, including expansion of our direct sales force and customer management personnel in connection with our media placement business which launched in December 2013 and expanded by acquiring Hipcricket’s mobile advertising business in July 2015. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expense was 27% and 25% for the three month periods ending June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015 respectively. Our media placement revenues have carried relatively higher spending levels than our wireless application revenue. Sales and marketing expense has increased as media placement revenue has grown, but has decreased to 32% of total media placement revenue in the current quarter as compared to 42% in the comparable quarter last year. We anticipate that sales and marketing expense as a percentage of media placement revenue will continue to decrease as our expanded sales force generates more sales.

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, total stock based compensation expense increased 26% to $185,931 for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $147,299 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The increase is primarily attributable to grants of options to additional employees.

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $445,091 compared to $454,199 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, a 2% or $9,108 increase. In October 2014, we sold a secured $10,000,000 42-month note having an interest rate of 9% plus the greater of LIBOR, which was 0.48% as of June 30, 2016, or 1%. Included in interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 is $208,342 in amortization of discounts on the debt for a structuring fee, termination fees, and the rights assigned to Fortress to share in our potential future new intellectual property monetization revenue streams.

Our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $725,255 as compared to a net loss of $1,037,360 for the three months ended June 30, 2015, primarily attributable to the $3,211,658 increase in gross profits offset by an increase of $1,342,678 in sales and marketing expense, net of compensation expense and an increase of $38,603 in stock compensation expense. Excluding stock based compensation, our net income for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 was $911,157 compared to a net loss of $890,061 for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Our net income on a basic basis was $0.04 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2016 based on our weighted average shares outstanding of 17,355,478 on June 30, 2016 as compared to a net loss of $0.07 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2015 based on our weighted average shares outstanding of 15,404,817 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. Our net income on a fully diluted basis was $0.04 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2016 based on our weighted average shares outstanding of 19,831,509 on June 30, 2016. The increase in the number of weighted shares outstanding primarily reflects the issuance of shares of common stock, of which 833,700 shares were issued for warrants which were exercised, 696,560 for the acquisition of Hipcricket’s mobile advertising business, 296,401 for the acquisition of Doublevision, 261,954 shares were issued to Fortress, and 2,042 for the effect of the 10:1 reverse stock split in July 2015.

Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2016 and 2015

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, our revenue increased by 120% over revenue generated during the six months ended June 30, 2015 ($16,365,823 in the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to $7,447,698 in the six months ended June 30, 2015). Our revenue growth was primarily comprised of a $9,377,850 or 248% increase in media placement revenue offset by a $446,551 or 13% decrease in wireless application revenue. Media placement revenue increased as a result of expanding our direct sales force and acquiring the Hipcricket, Inc. mobile advertising business in July 2015. Wireless applications revenue declined primarily due to a decrease in the number of text and voice messages that we sent on behalf of our largest customer within our AT&T relationship. During the first six months of fiscal 2015, the customer transitioned its database of customers who receive our messages to a new standard rate messaging program and the transition caused a decline in the number of customers who elected to continue to receive messages.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, two customers accounted for 33% of the Company’s revenue, comprised of 17% from contracts with six customers covered under the Company’s master services agreement with AT&T, and 15% from multiple advertising contracts under one media placement customer. Of our revenue earned during the six months ended June 30, 2015, approximately 44% was generated from contracts with seven customers covered under our agreements with AT&T.

Our cost of revenue, which represents the costs associated with wireless applications and media placement revenues, increased $4,063,908 or 119% to $7,487,118 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $3,423,210 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Our cost of revenue varies substantially in line with wireless applications and media placement revenues and includes depreciation and amortization expense of our mobile engagement technology platforms that we use to operate our wireless applications and media placement business. Cost of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016 increased as compared to the six months June 30, 2015 primarily as result of the 248% increase in media placement revenues over the same comparable periods and a $197,281 increase in software development amortization expense. Our technology investment in revenue growth is focused on our mobile engagement platform through software development efforts. We capitalize the cost of developing our mobile engagement platform and amortize our investment over three years. For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recognized $523,693 and $326,412, respectively, in amortization of software development costs, with the increased amortization attributable to the increased investment in developing our platform.

General and administrative expense, excluding stock based compensation, was $2,941,252 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $2,478,566 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $462,686 or 19% that is primarily attributable to the increased number of our personnel and increased expenditure for professional services.

Sales and marketing expense, excluding stock based compensation, was $4,613,544 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to $1,735,651 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, an increase of $2,877,893 or 166%, that is primarily attributable to increased sales and marketing spending, including expansion of our direct sales force and customer management personnel in connection with our media placement business that we launched in December 2013 and expanded by acquiring Hipcricket’s mobile advertising business in July 2015. As a percentage of revenue, sales and marketing expense was 29% and 24% for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Our media placement revenues have carried relatively higher spending levels than our wireless application revenues. Sales and marketing expense has increased as media placement revenue has grown, but has decreased to 36% of total media placement revenue in the current quarter as compared to 47% in the comparable quarter last year. We anticipate that sales and marketing expense as a percentage of media placement revenue we continue to decrease as our newly expanded direct sales force generates more sales.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016, total stock based compensation expense increased $262,168 or 88% to $559,433 from $297,265 for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase is primarily attributable to our granting all of our members of the board of directors their annual option grants at our February 2016 annual meeting of shareholders rather than on their respective anniversary dates as was done previously, in addition to options granted to members of management.

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 remained consistent at $885,113 and $888,758, respectively, a decrease of $3,645. In October 2014, we sold a secured $10,000,000 42-month note having an interest rate of 9% plus the greater of LIBOR, which was 0.48% as of June 30, 2016, or 1%. Included in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 are $391,582 and $318,565, respectively, in amortization of discounts on the debt for a structuring fee, termination fees and the rights assigned to Fortress to share in our potential future new intellectual property monetization revenue streams.

Our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $445,441 as compared to a net loss of $1,375,871 for the six months ended June 30, 2015, a decrease of $930,430 or 68% that is primarily attributable to the $2,451,328 increase in sales and marketing expense, net of stock compensation expense, $462,686 increase in general and administrative expense, and $353,168 increase in stock compensation expense that was offset by the $4,427,652 increase in gross profits. Excluding stock based compensation, our net income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 was $113,992 and net loss of $1,169,606 for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015. Our net loss on a basic and fully diluted basis was $0.02 per share the six months ended June 30, 2016 based on our weighted average shares outstanding of 17,288,445 as compared to a net loss of $0.09 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2015 based on our weighted average shares outstanding of 15,385,645. The increase in the number of weighted shares outstanding primarily reflects the issuance of shares of common stock, of which 833,700 shares were issued for warrants which were exercised, 461,954 shares were issued to Fortress, 296,401 were issued to DoubleVision in satisfaction of the earnout provision, 620,560 shares were issued for the acquisition of Hipcricket’s mobile advertising business.

At June 30, 2016, we had total assets of $22,451,610, including $10,593,565 in current assets, and total liabilities of $16,589,040, including $11,268,541 in current liabilities. At December 31, 2015, we had total assets of $20,757,068, including $8,906,692 in current assets, and total liabilities of $15,576,490, including $10,635,323 in current liabilities. The $1,694,542 or 8% increase in assets is primarily attributable to the increase in current assets that largely consisted of the $2,651,909 increase in accounts receivable attributable to increased revenues, offset by a $932,399 decrease in cash that is primarily attributable to the ongoing investment in our advertising technology platform and repayment of our Fortress debt. The $1,012,550 or 7% increase in liabilities is primarily attributable to the increase in current liabilities that largely consisted of a $2,526,299 increase in accounts payable and accrued expense attributable to the growth in our costs of revenue and operations that resulted from the expansion of our business, offset by a decrease of $1,534,746 for the Fortress loan.

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we generated $921,873 in cash for operating activities, of which $1,646,176 is the net positive result of our noncash expenses primarily consisting of $639,985 in depreciation and amortization expense, $185,931 in stock compensation expense, and $95,005 of bad debt expense. In addition, we used $2,675,931 in cash for growth in our accounts receivable in the 3-month period which has resulted from increased media placement revenue that typically remains outstanding in accounts receivable longer than our wireless applications revenue. $1,375,634 was also generated in growth from accounts payable in the 3-month period that reflects operating cost growth in line with our revenue growth and an increase in accounts payable aging that brings our vendor and customer balance aging into better alignment.

Cash used in investing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $393,974, of which $342,673 primarily represents capitalized internal costs of our software development for our advertising technology platform. $41,449 was attributable to investments in our intellectual property which is designed to strengthen our intellectual property portfolio, and $9,852 attributable to purchases of property and equipment in connection with our personnel expansion.

Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $528,564 which is primarily comprised of $525,000 in principal repayment our Note to Fortress. On March 1, 2016, we amended our Revenue Sharing and Note Purchase Agreement with Fortress to reduce monthly principal payments from $333,333 to $175,000 for February 2016 through February 2017 and from $333,333 to $300,000 for March 2017 to February 2018, with the final payment in March 2018 increased to repay the remaining principal in full. In consideration for the Amendment, we paid a restructuring fee and issued shares of our common stock to Fortress as described in the discussion of the cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 below.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we generated $1,415,280 in cash for operating activities, of which $1,705,579 is the net positive result of our noncash expenses primarily consisting of $1,240,079 in depreciation and amortization expense, $559,433 in stock compensation expense, and $346,877 of bad debt expense. In addition, we used $2,998,787 in cash for growth in our accounts receivable in the six-month period which has resulted from increased media placement revenue, which typically remains outstanding in accounts receivable longer than our wireless applications revenue and we generated $2,007,472 in cash from growth in our accounts payable in the six-month period that reflects operating cost growth in line with our revenue growth and an increase in accounts payable aging that brings our vendor and customer balance aging into better alignment.

Cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was $872,431, of which $769,210 primarily represents capitalized internal costs of our software development for our advertising technology platform, $91,074 was attributable to investments in our intellectual property which is designed to strengthen our intellectual property portfolio, and $12,147 was attributable to purchases of property and equipment in connection with our personnel expansion.

Cash used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $1,475,248, which primarily consisted of $1,366,668 in principal repayments on our Note to Fortress. On March 1, 2016, we amended our Revenue Sharing and Note Purchase Agreement with Fortress to reduce monthly principal payments from $333,333 to $175,000 for February 2016 through February 2017 and from $333,333 to $300,000 for March 2017 to February 2018, with the final payment in March 2018 increased to repay the remaining principal in full. In consideration for the Amendment, we paid a restructuring fee of $100,000 and issued 200,000 shares of our common stock, with an aggregate value of $568,000, to Fortress.

The principal amount of our Note to Fortress bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 9% per annum. Such interest is payable monthly in cash except that 2% per annum of the interest shall be paid-in-kind, by increasing the principal amount of the Note by the amount of such interest. The term of the Note is 42 months and we began making monthly interest payments in October 2014. In October 2015, we began making monthly amortization payments on the Note, each in the amount of $333,334. We agreed to apply 85% of any revenues from new licensing and royalty arrangements that we generate using our patents (“Monetization Revenues”) to the payment of accrued and unpaid interest on, and then to repay outstanding principal (at par) of, the Note until all amounts due with respect to the Note has been paid in full. After the repayment of the Note, we will pay Fortress up to 50% of Monetization Revenues totaling (i) $5,000,000, if paid in full prior to March 31, 2018 and (ii) $7,500,000 thereafter. In addition, we must also pay $350,000 to Fortress upon repayment of the Note.

We are seeking to increase our working capital to facilitate anticipated revenue growth, invest in our technology platform, develop our patent portfolio for new monetization opportunities and to improve liquidity. Over the next twelve months we believe that existing capital and anticipated funds from operations may be sufficient to sustain current level of operations and debt service. Inasmuch as the Company is pursuing the monetization of its intellectual property, which plans are subject to change, additional external financing relating to such efforts may be required. Increased acceleration in our core business, monthly principal payments on our debt and/or other economic influences might also necessitate additional financing.

There can be no assurance that we will be able obtain additional financing, if at all or upon terms that will be acceptable to us or our existing secured lender.

As a result of the recent economic recession, and the continuing economic uncertainty, it has been difficult for companies to obtain equity or debt financing. While the credit markets have improved over the last year, it remains difficult for smaller companies to obtain financing on reasonable terms.

Any additional capital raised through the sale of equity or equity-backed securities may dilute current stockholders’ ownership percentages and could also result in a decrease in the fair market value of our equity securities. The terms of the securities issued by us in future capital transactions may be more favorable to new investors and may include preferences, superior voting rights and the issuance of warrants or other derivative securities which may have a further dilutive effect.

If we raise additional funds through collaboration and licensing arrangements with third parties, it may be necessary to relinquish some rights to our technologies or our services or grant licenses on terms that are not favorable to us.

Furthermore, any additional debt or equity or other financing that we may need may not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If we are unable to obtain required additional capital, we may have to curtail our growth plans or cut back on existing business. Further, we may not be able to continue operations if we do not generate sufficient revenues from operations.

We may incur substantial costs in pursuing future capital financing, including investment banking fees, legal fees, accounting fees, securities law compliance fees, printing and distribution expenses and other costs. We may also be required to recognize non-cash expenses in connection with certain securities we issue, such as convertible notes and warrants, which may adversely impact our reported financial results.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements or financing activities with special purpose entities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. We have identified the following accounting policies that we believe are key to an understanding of our financial statements. These are important accounting policies that require management’s most difficult, subjective judgments.

Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue

In general, licensing and royalty revenue arrangements provide for the payment of contractually determined fees in consideration for the patented technologies owned by or controlled by the Company’s operating subsidiary. The intellectual property rights granted may be perpetual in nature, extending until the expiration of the related patents, or can be granted for a defined, relatively short period of time, with the licensee possessing the right to renew the agreement at the end of each contractual term for an additional minimum upfront payment. Pursuant to the terms of these agreements, the Company’s operating subsidiary may have no further obligation with respect to the grant of the non-exclusive retroactive and future licenses, covenants-not-to-sue, releases, and other deliverables, including no express or implied obligation on the Company’s operating subsidiary’s part to maintain or upgrade the technology, or provide future support or services. Generally, the agreements provide for the grant of licenses, covenants-not-to-sue, releases, and other significant deliverables upon the execution of the agreement, or upon the receipt off the minimum upfront payment for term agreement renewals. As such, when the Company has no further obligation under the agreement, the earnings process is complete and revenue is recognized upon the execution of the agreement, when collectability is reasonably assured, or upon receipt of the minimum upfront fee for term agreement renewals, and when all the other revenue recognition criteria have been met, otherwise the Company recognizes revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the agreement based on the contractually determined fees.

Deferred revenue arises as a result of differences between the timing of revenue recognition and receipt of cash from the Company’s customers.

Software Development Costs

Long-Lived Assets

We account for our long-lived assets in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 360-10-05, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” ASC Topic 360-10-05 requires that long-lived assets be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the historical cost carrying value of an asset may no longer be appropriate. We assess recoverability of the carrying value of an asset by estimating the future net cash flows expected to result from the asset, including eventual disposition. If the future net cash flows are less than the carrying value of the asset, an impairment loss is recorded equal to the difference between the asset’s carrying value and fair value or disposable value. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we recognized an impairment loss of $831,000 on our “Anywhere” Software License.

Fair Value Measurement

The Company complies with the provisions of ASC No. 820-10 (ASC 820-10), “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” ASC 820-10 relates to financial assets and financial liabilities. ASC 820-10 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The provisions of this standard apply to other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements and are to be applied prospectively with limited exceptions.

ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs) and (2) an entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions that are developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). The fair value hierarchy consists of three broad levels, which gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820-10 are described below:

Level 1. Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that an entity has the ability to access.

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

Item 4 - Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have not made a change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Internal control systems, no matter how well designed and operated, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even a system which is determined to be effective cannot provide absolute assurance that all control issues have been detected or prevented. Our systems of internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.

Under the oversight of the Audit Committee, Management will continue to review and make any changes it deems necessary to the overall design of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, including implementing improvements in policies and procedures. We are committed to a proper internal control environment and will continue to implement measures to improve the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in response to our continued operational development.
