NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Organization

 

Voice Assist, Inc. ( the “Company” ) was originally incorporated as “Musician’s Exchange” under the laws of the State of Nevada on February 4, 2008 and developed an internet destination and marketplace for musicians. On September 28, 2010, Musician’s Exchange amended its articles of incorporation to change its name from Musician’s Exchange to Voice Assist, Inc.

 

On July 22, 2010, the Company entered into the following:

 

(1) An Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets with SpeechPhone, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company (“Speechphone”) to purchase substantially all of the assets of Speechphone in exchange for 10,250,000 shares of common stock and an agreement to issue 2,000,000 shares of convertible preferred stock in exchange for extinguishment of $1,700,000 in debt;

 

(2) An Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets with MDM Intellectual Property, LLC, a California Limited Liability Company (“MDM”) to purchase substantially all of the assets of MDM in exchange for 6,150,000 shares of common stock;

 

(3) An Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets with SpeechCard, LLC, a Delaware Limited Liability Company (“SpeechCard”) to purchase substantially all of the assets of SpeechCard in exchange for 1,025,000 shares of common stock;

 

(4) An Agreement of Purchase and Sale of Assets with Voiceassist, a Delaware Limited Liability Company (“Voiceassist”) to purchase substantially all of the assets of Voiceassist in exchange for 2,050,000 shares of common stock; and

 

(5) An agreement to issue 1,025,000 shares to purchase Mr. Michael Metcalf’s concept, Music By Voice; shareholders agreed to cancel a total of 8,400,000 shares upon the close of the transaction.

 

On September 30, 2010, the transaction was closed and substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Speechphone and the related entities listed above were acquired by the Company. For accounting purposes, the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and certain liabilities of Speechphone by the Company has been recorded as a reverse acquisition of a public company and recapitalization of Speechphone based on the factors demonstrating that Speechphone represents the accounting acquirer. The historic financial statements of Speechphone and the related entities, while historically presented as an LLC equity structure, have been retroactively presented as a corporation for comparability purposes. The Company changed its business direction and is now a voice recognition technology company focused on enabling access to any information through any device using speech technology.

 

 

Basis of Presentation

 

The condensed interim financial statements included herein, presented in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles and stated in US dollars, have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.

 

These statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of the information contained therein. It is suggested that these condensed interim financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 16, 2012. The Company follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports.

 

Results of operations for the interim period are not indicative of annual results.

 

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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Generally, matters subject to estimation and judgment include amounts related to asset impairments, useful lives of fixed assets and capitalization of costs for software developed for internal use. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

 

Cash and Cash Equivalents

 

The Company considers highly liquid investments with insignificant interest rate risk and original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist primarily of interest-bearing bank accounts and money market funds. The Company’s cash positions represent cash on deposit in checking and savings accounts. These assets are generally available on a daily basis and are highly liquid in nature.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For recognizing revenue, the Company applies the provisions of the Revenue Recognition Topic of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). Revenues are generated from telephony services including activation fees, hardware fees and monthly usage fees. In most cases, the services performed do not require significant production, modification or customization of the Company’s software or services; therefore, revenues for the hardware fees and monthly usage fees are recognized when evidence of a completed transaction exists, when services have been rendered. The Company recognized revenue from sales of $262,624 and $534,138 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

 

The activation fees generated from new accounts are recorded as deferred revenue and are amortized over the estimated average customer relationship period. The net unamortized activation fees were $50,452 and $68,134 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The costs associated with these activation fees are recorded as deferred costs and are similarly amortized over the estimated average customer relationship period. The net unamortized costs are $12,613 and $17,033 at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. For both the activation fees and costs associated therewith, the estimated average customer relationship period was 24 months for the three months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Software Development Costs

 

The Company has adopted the provisions of the Software Topic of the FASB ASC 350 to account for its internally and externally developed software costs since the Company is dependent on the internal use automated speech recognition software to provide the enhanced services. The capitalization of software development costs begins when a product’s technological feasibility has been established and ends when the product is available for use. Software development costs include direct costs incurred subsequent to establishment of technological feasibility for significant product enhancements. Amortization is computed on an individual project basis using the straight-line method over the estimated economic life of the projected product, generally three to five years.

 

As of June 30, 2012, software development costs not yet amortized are $549,234. During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, amortization was $27,380 and $24,302, respectively. 

 

Impairment

 

FASB ASC 360-10-35-21 requires that long-lived assets to be held and used be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. We regularly evaluate whether events or circumstances have occurred that indicate the carrying value of our long-lived assets may not be recoverable.  If factors indicate the asset may not be recoverable, we compare the related undiscounted future net cash flows to the carrying value of the asset to determine if impairment exists.  If the expected future net cash flows are less than the carrying value, an impairment charge is recognized based on the fair value of the asset.  An evaluation of our intangible assets was conducted utilizing the two step impairment analysis. No impairments were indicated or recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Stock-based Payments

 

The Company records the stock-based compensation awards issued to non-employees and other external entities for goods and services at either the fair market value of the goods received or services rendered or the instruments issued in exchange for such services, whichever is more readily determinable, using the measurement date guidelines enumerated in FASB ASC 505-50-30.

 

 

Recent Pronouncements

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by FASB that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. If not discussed, management believes that the impact of recently issued standards, which are not yet effective, will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements upon adoption.

 

NOTE 2 – GOING CONCERN

 

The financial statements have been presented on a going concern basis, which contemplates, but does not include, adjustments for the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has a limited operating history and limited funds. As shown in the financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $1,487,956 and cash used by operations of $595,072 for the six months ended June 30, 2012, and had a working capital deficit of $307,311 as of June 30, 2012. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. The Company believes that it is appropriate for the financial statements to be prepared on a going concern basis. The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

 

The Company is dependent upon debt and equity financing to continue operations. It is management’s plan to raise necessary funds via private placements of its common stock to satisfy the capital requirements of the Company’s business plan. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain the necessary funds through continuing debt and equity financing to have sufficient operating capital to support a level of operations to obtain a level of cash flow to sustain continuing operations. If the Company is successful in raising the necessary funds, there is no assurance that the Company will successfully implement its business plan. The Company’s continuation as a going concern is dependent on the Company’s ability to raise additional funds through the private placement of its common stock or debt sufficient to meet its obligations on a timely basis and ultimately to attain profitable operations.

 

NOTE 3 – LOANS PAYABLE – RELATED PARTIES

 

The Company received advances totaling $102,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2012. These advances are due upon demand, unsecured, and carry 0% interest.

 

NOTE 4 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

 

Preferred Stock

 

The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of its $0.001 par value preferred stock.

The Series A Convertible Preferred stock has a liquidation preference of $1.25 per share and is not entitled to dividends. The Series A Convertible Preferred stock may be converted on a 1:1 basis into shares of common stock at any time at the option of the holder, subject to adjustments for stock dividends, combinations or splits. The Series A Convertible Preferred stock has protective provisions. As long as any Series A Convertible Preferred shares are outstanding, this Corporation shall not, without first obtaining approval of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred which is entitled, other than solely by law, to vote with respect to the matter, and which Series A Preferred represents at least two-thirds of the voting power of the then outstanding Series A Convertible Preferred: (a) sell, convey or otherwise dispose of or encumber all or substantially all of its property or business or merge into or consolidate with any other corporation (other than a wholly-owned subsidiary corporation) or effect any transaction or series of related transactions in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the Corporation is disposed of; (b) alter or change the rights, preferences or privileges of the Series A Convertible Preferred so as to affect adversely the Series A Convertible Preferred; (c) increase or decrease (other than by redemption or conversion) the total number of authorized shares of preferred stock; (d) authorize or issue, or obligate itself to issue, any other equity security, including any other security convertible into or exercisable for any equity security (i) having a preference over, or being on a parity with, the Series A Convertible Preferred with respect to dividends or upon liquidation, or (ii) having rights similar to any of the rights of the Preferred Stock; or amend the Corporation’s Articles of Incorporation or bylaws.

 

On September 30, 2010, the Company issued 2,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred stock in exchange for extinguishment of $1,700,000 in debt.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

 

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this quarterly report. References in the following discussion and throughout this quarterly report to “we”, “our”, “us”, “Voice Assist”, “the Company”, and similar terms refer to Voice Assist, Inc. unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires. This discussion contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Voice Assists’ actual results could differ materially from those discussed below. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those identified below, and those discussed in the section titled “Risk Factors” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 

OVERVIEW

 

Voice Assist is a cloud-based speech recognition technology service company focused on communication, information and transaction processing.

 

Our technology allows consumers to use simple voice commands to dial, email, text or post to social networks such as Twitter and Facebook.

 

Our technology also allows business clients to use a cost effective virtual receptionist to answer incoming calls, determine who’s calling, place callers on hold, and play music and promotions for callers waiting on hold while finding key staff members, regardless of their current location. Incoming callers simply say the name of the person or department with whom they wish to speak and the virtual receptionist will transfer their calls immediately. Our virtual receptionist eliminates the need for callers to listen to long menus or navigate using touch tones to chose a department or spell the name of an employee using a telephone keypad. Callers say what or whom they want and are connected.

 

Mobile salespeople also use our technology to interface with cloud based databases such as www.salesforce.com. Salespeople can use voice commands to make sales calls, report sales results after each call, forecast sales or even schedule follow up calls or meetings.

 

Voice Assist builds features using a powerful rapid application development environment called SpeechScript™. SpeechScript is an extension of Java Script and provides developers with a simple, fast yet powerful way to build more features or voice enable any cloud based database or mobile app.

 

The Company generates revenue by building speech apps for the mass market such as our hands-free safe driving app, our virtual receptionist app and our CRM app. The Company then charges consumers or business clients to use these apps on a monthly subscription basis. The Company also private labels these apps for 3 ^rd party resellers who buy these services on a wholesale basis, and then resell the services under their brand names.

 

 

TRENDS, EVENTS AND UNCERTAINTIES

 

Loss of Reseller

 

One of the Company’s resellers sold its business. The acquirer changed the business of the reseller from marketing and promoting the Company’s voice activated services to selling nutraceutical products. This change of ownership resulted in a reduction in revenue of approximately $50,000 per month.

 

Change in Marketing Strategy and Product Line

 

The Company recently changed its marketing strategy and product line to align itself with the mobile advertising industry and to follow a Freemium (ad-driven) business model similar to companies like Pandora, that give away free service which includes in-app advertisements with an option for subscribers to pay a monthly subscription fee to obtain the service without the advertisements. The Company believes it will be successful at upgrading Freemium accounts to paid subscribers during 2013.

 

In order to affect the new strategy, the Company formed a strategic alliance with Augme Technologies, Inc., a mobile advertising company (“Augme”). The Company signed a definitive agreement with Augme on June 28, 2012 pursuant to which Augme agreed to pay the Company a one-time non-recurring engineering fee (NRE) of $200,000. The Company will use the funds to integrate Augme’s technology with the Company’s speech platform. The integration of Augme’s technology will allow the Company to provide a version of its hands-free driving app that can be used for free, but will generate revenue from ads served up by Augme’s technology. The Company plans to insert advertisements in messages sent as well as during the audio experience on or about every ten uses per subscriber.

 

The Company is also building a hands-free music player that will voice enable music content to allow consumers driving an automobile to “say what they want to listen to”. As consumers listen to music content or internet radio, the app will insert audio advertisements that are actionable by voice. After hearing such an ad, drivers can speak various voice commands such as “like it, love it, hate it, buy it, connect me or send a coupon to my mobile phone”.

 

This will create a new category of talking mobile ads that are actionable and trackable by voice. The Company plans to charge advertisers for each in-message ad insertion, for each voice feedback response and for each call connected or coupon sent via SMS. As part of the definitive agreement with Augme, Augme will introduce, market and sell this new category of interactive talking mobile ads as “premium mobile ad space”.

 

The Company has also determined that many clients felt it was too difficult to sign up and/or subscribe to its service via our website at www.voiceassist.com. In order to solve this problem, the Company began building mobile applications to allow potential new clients to sign up by downloading the app from the Apple iTunes store and the Google Android store. The Company is beta testing these new apps and making minor revisions prior to releasing the apps to the general public. The Company believes that the ease of getting the app from the Apple store and/or the Google store along with the ease of use to set up and begin using the service will attract consumers seeking a hands-free safe driving app to comply with new local driving laws that restrict the use of mobile phones unless a hands-free solution is used.

 

 New Potential Revenue Sources

 

The Company enables wireless service providers, wireless device manufacturers, resellers and/or OEM’s to voice enable new or existing applications, handsets, headsets, speakerphones, automobiles, internet radio, IPTV systems, personal computers, tablet PCs, set top boxes, in home automation/alarm panels and other connected devices. The Company generates revenue by charging upfront NRE fees to build new features and functionality and/or integrate with partner networks and/or technology. The Company then generates monthly subscription revenue or annual license fees per user.

 

With the integration of Augme’s technology, the Company anticipates that it will generate revenue from mobile advertisements, actionable audio responses, per live call connection and per SMS coupon sent. The Company anticipates that revenues will also be generated from the sale of additional premium services, such as our hands-free music service currently under development.

 

The Company is currently in contact with approximately 50 potential clients including, but not limited to, major wireless carriers, handset manufacturers, headset manufacturers, auto manufacturers, navigation manufacturers, internet music providers, social networks, large associations, network marketing companies, CRM providers, mobile application providers, set top box manufacturers and advertising companies. There is no guarantee that any of the transactions will be consummated during this year or at all. While we anticipate revenue will increase in the next twelve months, we can provide no assurance that this will be the case. As a result, our independent auditors have expressed substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

 

Results of Operations

 

Comparison of Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011

 

Revenues . Our revenues decreased $170,108 for the three months and $271,514 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $299,089 for the three months and $534,138 for the six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. This represents a 57% decrease in revenues quarter over quarter and a 51% decrease year-over-year. The decrease was a result of a change in the business of one of our primary resellers, which is no longer focusing on selling our voice activated telecom products and services.

 

Total Cost of Services . Our total cost of services decreased $63,414, or 45%, to $76,195 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $139,609 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and $101,352, or 40%, to $151,797 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $253,149 for the same period in 2011. The decrease in our total cost of services is a result of reduced wholesale telecom services required because of the loss of the primary reseller noted in the revenue section above.

 

Legal and Professional . Our legal and professional expenses decreased $17,725, or 7%, to $237,665 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $255,390 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and increased $4,306, or 1%, to $514,234 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $509,928 for the same period in 2011. The three month period decrease was a result of reduced need of legal services while the slight increase for the six month period was the result of a slight increase in professional fees during the first quarter of the period.

 

Selling, General and Administrative . Our selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $4,152,279, or 90%, to $486,168 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $4,638,447 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and decreased $6,636,055, or 87%, to $970,961 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $7,607,016 for the same period in 2011. The decrease for both the three month and the six month period was largely due to a reduction in non-cash stock option compensation expense and other non-cash expense as well as decreased payroll and travel related expenses as the Company reduced its executive personnel by five.

 

Selling, General and Administrative – Related Parties . Our selling, general and administrative – related parties’ expenses increased $6,901, or 78%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $8,775 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and increased $5,843, or 24%, to $29,838 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $23,995 in the same period in 2011. The increase for both the three month and six month period was the result of increased need for related party professional staffing.

 

Depreciation and Amortization . Our depreciation and amortization expenses increased $3,411, or 9%, to $42,163 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $38,752 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and increased $8,148, or 11%, to $83,970 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $75,822 for the same period in 2011. The increase for both the three month and six month period was the result of standard depreciation and amortization of software development costs.

 

 

Net Loss from Operations . We had $728,886 in net loss from operations for the three months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to a net loss from operations of $4,805,884 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and $1,488,176 in net loss from operations for the six months ended June 30, 2012, as compared to net loss from operations of $7,935,772 during the same period in 2011. The decreased loss for both the three month and the six month period was the result of a reduction in non-cash stock option compensation expense and a decrease in of our executive personnel.

 

Interest Expense . Our interest expense decreased $556, or 97%, to $19 for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $575 for the three months ended June 30, 2011, and decreased $444, or 39%, to $682 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $1,126 in the same period in 2011. The decrease for both the three month and six month period was the result of paying accounts payable timely made possible by the infusion of cash from the common stock and warrant offering during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Other Income(Expense) . Our other income (expense) had a net increase of $98 in other expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012, from $0 and a net increase in other income of $1,702 for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $0 in the same period in 2011. The increase in expense for the three month period resulted from penalties on state tax payments and the increase in income for the six month period was the result of subleasing unused office space.

 

Net Loss . For the three months ended June 30, 2012, we generated a loss of $729,003, a decrease of $4,077,456, or 85%, from a net loss of $4,806,459 for the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we generated a net loss of $1,487,956, a decrease of $6,449,274, or 81%, from a net loss of $7,937,230 for the same period in 2011. This decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in non-cash stock option compensation expense and the decrease in of our executive personnel.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

The following table summarizes total current assets, total current liabilities and working capital at June 30, 2012 compared to December 31, 2011.

 

										Increase / (Decrease)
		June 30, 2012				December 31, 2011				$				%
Current Assets		$	553,143			$	281,106			$	272,037				97	%
Current Liabilities		$	860,454			$	2,923,726			$	(2,063,272	)			71	%
Working Capital (deficit)		$	(307,311	)		$	(2,642,620	)		$	(2,335,309	)			(89	)%

 

Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. We have historically met our capital requirements through the issuance of stock and by borrowings. In the future, we anticipate we will be able to provide the necessary liquidity needed from the revenues generated from operations but there is no assurance that this will happen.

 

 

Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through the issuance of common stock and related party notes payable. As we expand our activities, we may, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending additional revenues. We anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings to the extent available or to obtain additional financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. In the future we need to generate sufficient revenues from hosted speech services, licensing fees and/or software development fees in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock or obtain additional loans. There can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our business plan. If we cannot raise the funds necessary to execute on our business plan we may be required to severely curtail, or even to cease, our operations.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the current assets increased by $272,037, or 97%, when compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 due to an increase in cash from the common stock and warrant offering in May 2012. 

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2012, the current liabilities decreased by $2,063,272, or 69%, when compared to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 current liabilities of $2,923,726. The decrease can be attributed to decrease in accounts payable to a related party and accounts payable.

 

We anticipate that we may incur operating losses during the next twelve months. The Company’s minimal operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in their early stage of development, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving strategy and unpredictable revenue sources. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. To address these risks, we must, among other things, increase our customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, continually develop and upgrade our website, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Going Concern

 

The financial statements included in this filing have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles that contemplate the continuance of Voice Assist as a going concern. Voice Assist may not have a sufficient amount of cash required to pay all of the costs associated with operating and marketing of its services. Management intends to use revenues and sales of its securities to mitigate the effects of cash flow deficits; however no assurance can be given that debt or equity financing, if and when required, will be available. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded assets and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should Voice Assist be unable to continue existence.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results or operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.

 

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 

The preparation of our condensed financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect our reported assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other assumptions we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Future events, however, may differ markedly from our current expectations and assumptions.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

For recognizing revenue, the Company applies the provisions of the Revenue Recognition Topic of Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). Revenues are generated from telephony services including activation fees, hardware fees and monthly usage fees. In most cases, the services performed do not require significant production, modification or customization of the Company’s software or services; therefore, revenues for the hardware fees and monthly usage fees are recognized when evidence of a completed transaction exists, generally when services have been rendered.

 

The activation fees generated from new accounts are recorded as deferred revenue and are amortized over the estimated average customer relationship period. The net unamortized activation fees were $50,452 as of June 30, 2012. The costs associated with these activation fees are recorded as deferred costs and are similarly amortized over the estimated average customer relationship period. The net unamortized costs are $12,613 as of June 30, 2012. For both the activation fees and costs associated therewith, the estimated average customer relationship period was 24 months for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

Stock-Based Compensation

 

The Company accounts for stock-based awards to employees in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standard Codification (ASC) 718 “Stock Compensation.” Options granted to consultants, independent representatives and other non-employees are accounted for using the fair value method as prescribed by ASC 505.

 

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, it was concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are not designed at a reasonable assurance level and are not effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. To update the disclosure controls and procedures, the Company has engaged the services of an outside consultant with significant experience in this area.

  

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures

 

In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
