Liquidity and Going ConcernDescription of Businesses

 

The 2015 audited financial statements have been prepared onfollowing is a description of each of the assumption that we were a going concern, which contemplatesInitial Business Units, the realization of assetsAcquired Assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Prior to the acquisition of the Target Companies, Alliance incurred losses since inception, generated no operating revenue, and as reflected in the accompanying financial statements, incurred a net loss of $386,456 for the partial year ended December 31, 2015.

We believe that the revenue generated by the Target Companies and the Target Assets, together with the net proceeds of the IPO, provide Alliance with sufficient capital to fund operations for the balance of 2016 and all of 2017 and there is no longer significant doubt about Alliance MMA’s ability to continue as a going concern. However, we cannot provide any assurances that our operating revenue and the proceeds of the IPO will be sufficient to fund our operations or that, if such revenues and proceeds are not sufficient, that we will be able to obtain additional capital on terms acceptable to us or at all.

The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if the Company is unable to continue as a going concern.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Alliance MMA, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Go Fight Net, Inc. Acquisitions are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date of the acquisition. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.Subsequent Acquisitions:

 

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, the unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2016, results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and related notes included in our amended initial registration statement on Form S1/A, filed with the SEC on August 30, 2016.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, the assessment of the recoverability of goodwill, likelihood and range of possible losses on contingencies, valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, recognition and measurement of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, assessment of unrecognized tax benefits, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Goodwill and identified intangible assets

Goodwill

Goodwill is recorded as the difference, if any, between the aggregate consideration paid for an acquisition and the fair value of the net tangible and identified intangible assets acquired under a business combination. The Company reviews impairment of goodwill annually in the fourth quarter. The Company first assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test. If the Company concludes it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of a reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, it need not perform the two-step impairment test. If based on the qualitative assessment, the Company believes it is more-likely-than-not that the fair value of its reporting units is less than its carrying value, a two-step goodwill impairment test is required to be performed. The first step requires the Company to compare the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value including allocated goodwill. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using an equal weighting of the results derived from an income approach and a market approach. The income approach is estimated through the discounted cash flow method based on assumptions about future conditions such as future revenue growth rates, gross margins, operating expenses, discount rates, future economic and market conditions, and other assumptions. The market approach estimates the fair value of the Company’s equity by utilizing the market comparable method which is based on revenue multiples from comparable companies in similar lines of business. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value, the Company performs the second step of the goodwill impairment test to determine the amount of impairment loss. The second step of the goodwill impairment test involves comparing the implied fair value of the reporting unit with the carrying value of the reporting unit. An impairment charge is recognized for the excess of the carrying value of the reporting unit over its implied fair value. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is subjective in nature and requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including revenue growth rates and operating margins, discount rates and future market conditions, among others.

10 

Identified intangible assets

Identified intangible assets consist of video libraries, venue contracts, and ticketing software resulting from business acquisitions. The Company’s identified intangible assets are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, ranging from 3 to 5 years. The Company makes judgments about the recoverability of purchased finite-lived intangible assets whenever facts and circumstances indicate that the useful life is shorter than originally estimated or that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. If such facts and circumstances exist, the Company assesses recoverability by comparing the projected undiscounted net cash flows associated with the related asset or group of assets over their remaining lives against their respective carrying amounts. Impairments, if any, are based on the excess of the carrying amount over the fair value of those assets. If the useful life is shorter than originally estimated, the Company would accelerate the rate of amortization and amortize the remaining carrying value over the new shorter useful life. For further discussion of goodwill and identified intangible assets, see Note 6, Acquisitions below.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the authoritative guidance on share-based payment. Under the provisions of the guidance, stock-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the option using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period.

Calculating stock-based compensation expense requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected term of the stock-based awards, stock price volatility, and the pre-vesting option forfeiture rate. The assumptions used in calculating the fair value of stock-based awards represent the Company’s best estimates, but these estimates involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management judgment. As a result, if factors change and the Company uses different assumptions, its stock-based compensation expense could be materially different in the future. In addition, the Company is required to estimate the expected forfeiture rate and only recognize expense for those shares expected to vest. If the actual forfeiture rate is materially different from the estimate, stock-based compensation expense could be significantly different from what was recorded in the current period. See Note 9, Stockholders’ Equity for additional detail.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company has no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.


Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (“ASU 2014-09”), and since May 2014 the FASB has issued amendments to this new guidance, which collectively provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018 and, at that time, the Company may adopt the new standard under the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. Under the new standard, the current practice of many licensing companies of reporting revenues from per-unit royalty based agreements one quarter in arrears would no longer be accepted and instead companies will be expected to estimate royalty-based revenues. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the resulting impact on the financial statements.  

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 "Leases (Topic 842)." The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases while the accounting by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new standard.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the adoption of this new accounting standard would have on its consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently evaluating the effect this ASU will have on its consolidated statement of cash flows.

Note 3. Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred offering costs, consisting of legal, accounting and filing fees relating to the IPO, were capitalized and netted against the gross proceeds from the IPO. As of December 31, 2015, the Company capitalized $25,000 of deferred offering costs which are include in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheet. As the Company completed its IPO on September 30, 2016 the balance of the deferred offering costs was offset against gross IPO proceeds.

The Company also acquired a right of first refusal to acquire the rights to all future Louis Neglia MMA and kickboxing events. The total consideration paid to acquire the rights to the MMA and kickboxing event libraries was $155,000. An initial payment of $15,500 was made to Louis Neglia in March 2016 and a second payment of $10,000 was made in July 2016.

Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2017 and 2016, and for the three months then ended, have been prepared by the Company in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States (“U.S.”) for interim financial information. The amounts as of December 31, 2016 have been derived from the Company’s annual audited financial statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted in accordance with such rules and regulations. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) to state fairly the financial position of the Company and its results of operations and cash flows as of and for the periods presented. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, filed on April 17, 2017 (the “Form 10-K”). The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2017 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ended December 31, 2017 or any future period and the Company makes no representations related thereto.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, fair value of acquired intangible assets and goodwill, useful lives of intangible assets and property and equipment, the assessment of the recoverability of goodwill, likelihood and range of possible losses on contingencies, valuation and recognition of stock-based compensation expense, recognition and measurement of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, assessment of unrecognized tax benefits, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Liquidity and Going Concern

Liquidity

The Company incurred a net loss of $2.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, and has an accumulated deficit of $6.9 million since inception. Unless the Company is able to generate sufficient revenue to cover its operating costs, it will need to raise capital by selling shares of common stock or by borrowing funds through a working capital loan facility. Management cannot provide any assurances that the Company will generate sufficient revenue to continue as a going concern or, if it chooses to raise capital, that it will be successful in doing so on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

There have been no significant changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2017, as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Form 10-K with the exception of the fighter commission revenue recognition policy disclosed below.

Revenue Recognition

Promotion Revenue

The Company records revenue from ticket sales and sponsorship income upon the successful completion of the related event, at which time services have been deemed rendered, the sales price is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Customer deposits consist of amounts received from the customer for fight promotion and entertainment services to be provided in the next fiscal year. The Company receives these funds and recognizes them as a liability until the services are provided and revenue can be recognized.

Ticket Service Revenue

The Company acts as an agent for ticket sales for promoters and records revenue upon receipt of cash from the credit card companies. The Company charges a fee per transaction for collecting the cash on ticket sales and remits the remaining amount to the promoter upon completion of the event or request for advance from the promoter. The Company’s fee is non-refundable and is recognized immediately as it is not tied to the completion of the event. The Company recognizes revenue upon receipt from the credit card companies due to the following: the fee is fixed and determined and the service of collecting the cash for the promoter has been rendered and collection has occurred.

Fighter Commission Revenue

The Company records fighter commission revenue upon the completion of the contracted athlete’s related event, at which time the fighter’s services have been deemed rendered, the contractual amount due to the fighter is known and the commission due to the Company related to these activities is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Distribution Revenue

The Company acts as a producer, distributor and licensor of video content. The Company’s online video content is offered on a pay per view (“PPV”) basis. The Company records revenue on PPV transactions upon receipt of payment to credit processing partners. The Company charges viewers a fee per PPV purchase transaction for entitling a viewer to watch the desired video. The Company records revenue net of a fee for the credit card processing cost per transaction. The Company maintains all revenues from videos the Company films and distribute a profit share, typically 50% to promoters who use our streaming services. The Company generates revenues from video production services, and books this revenue upon completion of the video production project. The Company generates revenues from licensing the rights to videos to networks overseas and domestically, and books revenue upon delivery of content. To the extent there are issues (i) watching a video (ii) with our production services or (iii) with the quality of a video we send out for distribution to a network we would issue a partial or full refund based on the circumstances. Given the nature of our business, these refund requests come within days of delivery, thus we would not anticipate any refund request in excess of 30 days from a PPV purchase, a license delivery or video production performance.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), and since May 2014 the FASB has issued amendments to this new guidance, which collectively provides guidance for revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2018 and, at that time, the Company may adopt the new standard under the full retrospective approach or the modified retrospective approach. Under the new standard, the current practice of many licensing companies of reporting revenues from per-unit royalty based agreements one quarter in arrears would no longer be accepted and instead companies will be expected to estimate royalty-based revenues. The Company is currently evaluating the method of adoption and the resulting impact on the financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) (“Update 2014-15”), which requires management to assess a company’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures in certain circumstances. For public entities, Update 2014-15 was effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016. The Company adopted this update in 2016 resulting in no impact on its consolidated results of operations, financial position, cash flows and disclosures.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02 “Leases (Topic 842).” The core principle of Topic 842 is that a lessee should recognize the assets and liabilities that arise from leases while the accounting by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under previous GAAP. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of this new standard.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718) (“ASU 2016-09”). ASU 2016-09 identifies areas for simplification involving several aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, an option to recognize gross stock compensation expense with actual forfeitures recognized as they occur, as well as certain classifications on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this update effective January 1, 2017.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. This ASU addresses the classification of certain specific cash flow issues including debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of certain debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of certain insurance claims and distributions received from equity method investees. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new guidance.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04 to simplify the measurement of goodwill by eliminating the Step 2 impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount of that goodwill. The new guidance requires an entity to compare the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount and recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. Additionally, an entity should consider income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The new guidance becomes effective for goodwill impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, though early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new guidance.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, “Classifying the Definition of a Business.” This ASU clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. For public entities, this ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those periods. Early adoption is permitted for transactions for which the acquisition date occurs before the effective date of the ASU only when the transaction has not been reported in financial statements that have been issued. The Company chose to early adopt this standard effective for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Under acquisition accounting, assets and liabilities acquired are recorded at their fair value on the acquisition date, with any excess in purchase price over these values being allocated to identifiable intangible assets and goodwill at September 30, 2016.


The respective asset purchase agreements for the Target Companies other than GFL, and the agreement and plan of merger for GFL, contemplate the acquisition of certain assets and assume certain liabilities. Due to the short-term nature of many of the assets acquired, their carrying values, as shown in the historical financial statements of the companies, approximate their respective fair values. In addition, value has been assigned to those intangible assets related to intellectual property rights to video libraries, ticketing software and customer and venue relationships of each Target Company. The goodwill recognized for these acquisitions is related primarily to synergies with the combined businesses and assembled workforce.March 31, 2017.

(ii)      Amortization of intangible assets. Intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives. The estimated useful lives of acquired intangible assets are based upon the economic benefit expected to be received and the period during which we expect to receive that benefit. A useful life of five years has been assigned to the intellectual property rights of acquired video libraries and three years to the acquired ticketing software and customer and venue relationships based on a number of factors, including contractual agreements, estimated production hours available on video libraries and economic factors pertaining to the combined companies. 

The unaudited pro forma financial information includes various assumptions, including those related to the preliminary purchase price allocation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed of Target Companies based on management’s best estimates of fair value. The final purchase price allocation may vary based on final appraisals, valuations and analyses of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Accordingly, the pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for illustrative purposes.

The unaudited pro forma statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 are based on the historical financial statements of Alliance MMA, Inc. after giving effect to the acquisition of the Target Assets and the businesses of the Target Companies and the assumptions, reclassifications and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma financial information. 


The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to represent or be indicative of the results of operations or financial position that would have been reported had the acquisitions been completed as of the date presented, and should not be taken as a representation of potential future results of operations or financial position.

For purposes of these unaudited pro forma statements of operations, the acquisitions of the Target Assets and the businesses of the Target Companies are assumed to have occurred on January 1, 2016, and aggregate the results of Alliance and the Target Companies for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

Contingencies

  

In the normal course of business or otherwise, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings. The Company will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. The accrual for a litigation loss contingency might include, for example, estimates of potential damages, outside legal fees and other directly related costs expected to be incurred. As of September 30, 2016 and DecemberMarch 31, 2015,2017, the Company was not involved in any legal proceedings.

 

In April and May 2017, two purported securities class action complaints— Shapiro v. Alliance MMA, Inc., No. 1:17-cv-2583 (D.N.J.), andShulman v. Alliance MMA, Inc., No. 1:17-cv-3282 (S.D.N.Y.)—were filed against the Company and certain of its officers in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, respectively.  The complaints allege that the defendants violated certain provisions of the federal securities laws, and purport to seek damages on behalf of a class of shareholders who purchased the Company’s common stock pursuant or traceable to the Company’s initial public offering.  We believe that these complaints are without merit and intend to defend vigorously against them.  Based on the very early stage of the litigation, it is not possible to estimate the amount or range of possible loss that might result from an adverse judgment or a settlement of these matters.

Note 10.8. Income Taxes

 

The Company recorded no income tax provision for the three and nine months ended September 30,March 31, 2017 and 2016, and 2015, as the Company has incurred losses for these periods.

 

Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements and consist of taxes currently due. Deferred taxes relate to differences between the basis of assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting which will be either taxable or deductible when the assets or liabilities are recovered or settled. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred income tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred income tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred income tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based on consideration of these items, management has established a full valuation allowance as it is more likely than not that the tax benefits will not be realized as of September 30, 2016.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

Note 1. Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Business

CFFC Promotions, LLC (“CFFC”) promotes mixed martial arts cage fighting in the New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania tristate area. The Company was formed on January 28, 2014.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, the unaudited interim condensed financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position as of September 30, 2016, our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

These unaudited interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and related notes included in our amended initial registration statement Form on S1/A. Filed with the SEC on August 30, 2016.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the unaudited condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, the assessment of useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, likelihood and range of possible losses on contingencies, valuations of equity securities and intangible assets, fair value of options, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts management expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis and information on specific accounts. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Management has determined that an allowance of $22,625 is required at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue from ticket sales and sponsorship income upon successful completion of the related event, at which time services have been deemed rendered, the sales price is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured.

Advertising Costs

Advertising costs, which are expensed as incurred, were $281 and $261 for the three month ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and $541 and $3,788 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Company’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a limited liability company. Accordingly, the Company is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Company is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Company has no other tax positions, which must be considered for disclosure.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X for interim financial information. Accordingly, these statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In our opinion, the unaudited interim condensed financial statements include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for the fair presentation of our financial position as of September 30, 2016, our results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016.

These unaudited interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 and related notes included in our amended initial registration statement Form on S1/A. Filed with the SEC on August 30, 2016.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the unaudited condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, the assessment of useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, likelihood and range of possible losses on contingencies, valuations of equity securities and intangible assets, fair value of options, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition 

The Company records revenue from ticket sales and sponsorship income upon the successful completion of the related event, at which time services have been deemed rendered, the sales price is fixed and determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. Customer deposits consist of amounts received from the customer for fight promotion and entertainment services to be provided in the next period. The Company receives these funds and recognizes them as a liability until the services are provided and revenue can be recognized.

Income Taxes

The Company is treated as a pass-through entity for income tax purposes and, as such, is not subject to income taxes. Rather, all items of taxable income, deductions and tax credits are passed through to and are reported by its owners on their respective income tax returns. The Company’s federal tax status as a pass-through entity is based on its legal status as a limited liability company. Accordingly, the Company is not required to take any tax positions in order to qualify as a pass-through entity. The Company is required to file and does file tax returns with the Internal Revenue Service and other taxing authorities. Accordingly, these unaudited condensed financial statements do not reflect a provision for income taxes and the Company has no other tax positions, which must be considered for disclosure.

Notes to Condensed Financial Statements

Use of Estimates

The preparation of unaudited condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the unaudited condensed financial statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, allowance for doubtful accounts, the assessment of useful lives and recoverability of long-lived assets, likelihood and range of possible losses on contingencies, valuations of equity securities and intangible assets, fair value of options, among others. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounts Receivable 

Accounts receivable are stated at the amounts management expects to collect. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recorded based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis and information on specific accounts. Account balances are written off against the allowance after all means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. Management has determined that no allowance is required at September 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015.

Revenue Recognition 

The Company acts as a producer, distributor and licensor of video content. The Company’s online video content is offered on a pay per view (“ppv”) basis for ourselves and our promoter clients.  We record revenue on pay per view transactions upon receipt of payment to our credit processing partners.  The Company charges viewers a fee per pay per view purchase transaction for entitling a viewer to watch the desired video.  The Company records revenue net of a fee for the credit card processing cost per transaction. The Company maintains all revenues from videos we film for ourselves and distribute a profit share, typically 50% to promoters who use our streaming services. The Company generates revenues from video production services, and books this revenue upon completion of the video production project. The Company generates revenues from licensing the rights to videos to networks overseas and domestically, and books those revenues upon delivery of content.  To the extent there are issues (i) watching a video (ii) with our production services or (iii) with the quality of a video we send out for distribution to a network we would issue a partial or full refund based on the circumstances. Given the nature of our business, these refund requests come within days of delivery, thus we would not anticipate any refund request in excess of 30 days from a ppv purchase, a license delivery or video production performance.  The Company has reserves of $2,794 and $1,380 for the periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Income Taxes

The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes in accordance with ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method, income tax expense is recognized for the amount of: (i) taxes payable or refundable for the current year and (ii) deferred tax consequences of temporary differences resulting from matters that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the results of operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

A valuation allowance is provided to reduce the deferred tax assets reported if based on the weight of the available positive and negative evidence, it is more likely than not some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.

ASC Topic 740.10.30 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. ASC Topic 740.10.40 provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. We have no material uncertain tax positions for any of the reporting periods presented.

Industry

Corporate Information

Our principal executive offices are located at 590 Madison Avenue, 21st Floor, New York, New York, 10022. Our telephone number is (212) 739-7825.

Overview

 

In less than a quarter century, modern day mixed martial arts has developed from a pariah banned in most U.S. states to an international sports phenomenon that some believe will be an Olympic event within the next two decades. As it is practiced today, MMA evolved directly from a Brazilian combat sport known asvale tudo, Portuguese for ‘anything goes,’ which was popular in the 1920’s. MMA is a full contact sport that permits fighters to use techniques from both striking and grappling martial arts such as Boxing, Wrestling, Taekwondo, Karate, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, and Judo. The “MMA Industry” generates revenues by promoting live MMA bouts, and through Pay-Per-View, video-on-demand and televised MMA event programming, merchandise sales, event and fighter sponsorships, and the monetizationNature of MMA-related intellectual property royalties.  

Business

 

The MMACompany was formed on February 12, 2015 to acquire companies in the mixed martial arts (“MMA”) industry, in its current form traces its originsand to develop and promote fighters to the foundingsport's highest level of theprofessional competition, including The Ultimate Fighting Championship (“UFC”) in 1993. Initially, the UFC struggled to gain acceptance from the general public, which perceived the sport as excessively violent. Politicians including Senator John McCain of Arizona and New York state assemblyman Bob Reilly led the charge to ban(UFC), Bellator MMA, competitions from cable television. When their cable contracts were terminated in 1997, MMA events survived underground through internet and word of mouth promotions until their organizers agreed to a change of rules that allowed the Nevada State Athletic Commission and the New Jersey State Athletic Control Board to sanction the competitions in 2001. In 2006 Johns Hopkins University Medical School commissioned a study published in theJournal of Sports Science and Medicine which concluded that the injury rate in sanctioned MMA events is comparable to other combat sports involving striking and that in fact there are lower knockout rates in MMA compared to boxing. According to a study fromThe British Journal of Sports Medicine, only 28 percent of MMA bouts ended with a blow to the head, as most fights are decided by a tactical wrestling match where one opponent forces the other into submission.


Today, the sport is legal and regulated in all 50 states. Interest and participation in the sport is growing at a rapid pace. There were over 1,160 professional and pro-am events held in the United States in 2014, and over 3,050 such events in 2015, according to theNational MMA Registry, a proprietary database maintained by the Association of Boxing Commissions. The Association is operated by members from commissions from the United States and internationally. According to theNational MMA Registry, in 2015 there were a total of 15,105 professional MMA bouts and 12,190 amateur bouts.

Led by the UFC in terms of prominence and market share on a national level, there are in excess of 600 domestic regional MMA promotion companies promoting approximately 40,000 male and female professional and amateur fighters, according to Tapology.com, a leading online MMA forum. On an international basis, Tapology.com reports that the number of MMA promotions exceeds 1,025 with in excess of 90,000 professional and amateur MMA fighters. The UFC states on its website that its live MMA events are currently televised in over 129 countries and territories in approximately 800 million households in 28 languages.

Fueled in part by the notoriety of celebrity MMA athletes, including Olympic medalist Rhonda Rousey, Irish sensation Conor McGregor and legends Anderson Silva, Jose Aldo and Chris Weidman, among others, UFC events are held before crowds routinely averaging 15,000 with several live gates exceeding 50,000, according to the UFC and Tapology.com. Although the business results achieved by the UFC do not bear directly on whether alliance will successfully executive its business plan, they do evidence the wide and growing acceptance of the sport and the opportunity presented by its popularity.

Our Business

Our operations will be centered on the following three business components: 

·Live MMA Event Promotion, which will consist of generating revenue from ticket sales and providing a foundation for national sponsorship and national and international media distribution for our live MMA events.
·MMA Content Distribution, which will consist of paid distribution of original content on television, cable networks, pay-per-view broadcasts, and over the Internet, in the United States and through international distribution agreements.
·Sponsorships and Promotions, which will consist of sponsorships for live MMA events and televised productions and related advertising and promotional opportunities.

In addition, we are evaluating the profitability of other revenue sources, such as merchandising, ticketing, and fighter agency and management services.

Our Strategy

Our objective is to enhance the collective market share and profitability of the businesses of the Target Companies, and to become the premier feeder organization to the UFC, Bellator, the World Series of Fighting and other prestigious MMA promotions worldwide. To achieveThe Company plans ultimately to promote over 125 domestic events per year, showcasing more than 1,000 fighters, through regional promotions operating under the Alliance MMA umbrella. As of the date of this objective, we intendfiling, the Company has acquired 11 businesses to employform the following strategies:operations of Alliance MMA. See Note 1– “Description of Business and Basis of Presentation” and Note 4 – “Acquisitions” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information concerning the businesses acquired by the Company.

 

Distributing our Original Content. We intend to leverage the existing

18

Results of Operations – Alliance MMA fight media libraries of the Target Companies, including the GFL media library which has over 10,000 hours of original fight content, to create programming that we will offer through the www.gfl.tv website as well as through other distribution arrangements. We believe this content has value that has not been monetized primarily due to the limited financial resources of the Target Companies on a stand-alone basis. On a collective basis, the media libraries of the Target Companies comprise one of the largest MMA video archives in existence and contain valuable footage of the determining bouts of many MMA stars from early in their professional careers. The UFC has recognized the value in historic MMA content and recently launched its UFC Fight Passsubscription service which is intended to complement its live event and pay-per-view business. We also intend to produce original MMA programming at MMA events that we promote, and monetize this content through domestic and international distribution arrangements. Several of the Target Companies have established live and delayed television arrangements with a variety of networks, including CBS Sports Network and Comcast Sports Net. CFFC’s agreement with CBS Sports Network provides for eight prime time televised events in 2016 with each event being rebroadcast at least once. We are in discussions with several major networks in anticipation of extending our broadcast opportunities to more Target Company promotions following the acquisition.

 

Obtaining National SponsorshipsRevenues. We are in discussions with several prominent brands that we intend to secure as national sponsors for our live promotion events. Presently, the Target Companies rely

Our revenue is derived primarily onfrom promotional activities including gate receipts, venue fees, food and beverage sales, merchandise sales, and local and regional sponsors for their live events, although several have established sponsorship and advertising arrangements with larger organizations such as Adidas, MHP and Bud Light. We are in discussions with several prominent sports marketing agencies experienced in identifying, negotiating and procuring sponsorship agreements between mixed martial arts fighters and prospective sponsors, and are presently working to increase sponsorship revenuesponsorships. Revenue from ticket sales is realized at each Target Company event in anticipationthe conclusion of the promotion. The majority of our acquisition of the Target Companies. We are also interviewing several prominent sports marketing and advertising firms with a view towards increasing or expanding existing regional sponsorship arrangements.

Increasing Profitability Through the CageTix Ticketing Platform. As is customary in the MMA industry, the fighters appearing on an event fight card will sell a majority of the tickets sold for that event, an amount that routinely exceeds 70% of total live gate ticket sales. Referred to as “fighter consigned” tickets, sales are generally made in face-to-face cash transactions. Often, ticket proceeds are deliveredwhich is collected prior to the regional MMA promoter on or close to the day of the event, making forecastingevent. Sponsorship and budgeting difficult. Upon the acquisition of CageTix, we intend to aggregate control of the ticketing sales chain by instituting the use of the CageTix platform across all of the Target Companies. We believe that using CageTix will allow us to increase the profitability of the Target Companies’ events, while capturing valuable demographic customer information that will facilitate subsequent sales and marketing efforts. Utilizing proprietary software that is formatted to accommodate a range of mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, Android), the CageTix platform can significantly enhance promoter profitability by offering the security of credit/debit card sales processing; immediate revenue recognition; real time sales reporting; and sales audit and compliance tracking for taxing and regulatory authorities. 

Securing More Favorable Event Venues. We intend to migrate the businesses of certain Target Companies from paid event venue arrangements to venues that will compensate the promotions for hosting events, such as community sponsored civic auditoriums. In 2015, approximately 55% of the events promoted by the Target Companies were hosted in venues where the promotion paid to appear at the venue. We expect that the relocation of the Target Companies to paid venues will increase our profitability. By way of example, CFFC’s agreementfees are earned with the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, New Jersey, provides for six paid events in 2016 (with site fees of $15,000 for each pro event), sound, lighting and engineering support, ushers and security, advertising and promotional support (including local radio and television ads), and hotel rooms and suites with an equivalent of 114 room nights. Hoosier’s agreements for Caesars Entertainment Corp.’s Horseshoe Casino and Blue Chip Casino both provide Hoosier with similar support services as well as paid site fees for the event venues. Both V3 and COGA are in negotiations with casino venues in their respective markets to secure valuable promotion arrangements.


Identifying and Signing Top Prospects. We intend to continue the Target Companies’ history of securing highly-regarded professional fighters to multi-fight agreements, arrangements which will enhance our reputation and the value of our live MMA programming content. By conducting a great number of professional MMA events than other regional promotions, and by televising these events, we are able to provide prospects with multi-fight opportunities and the visibility they seek when affiliating with a promotion. Currently, CFFC has over 50 professional fighters signed to exclusive multi-fight contracts including Shane Burgos, Jared Gordon, and Dominic Mazzotta, whose professional records are 7-0, 10-1, and 11-1, respectively. Hoosier presently has over ten professional fighters signed to exclusive multi-fight promotional agreements, including top prospects Nick Krauss, Kevin Nowaczyk, Joey Diehl and Cole Wilken. By leveraging the relationships of our management team and members of our Board of Directors with top training camps, including Blackhouse MMA, American Top Team, Blackzilians, the Gracie family, Jacksons MMA, Chute Boxe, Octagon MMA, and 4oz Fight Club, we anticipate that we will be able to identify top prospects who will help ensure successful events and establish long-term relationships with the UFC and other leading MMA promotions.

We intend to acquire, on a selective basis, additional profitable regional MMA promotions in markets where we currently do not promote events. We believe that the regional MMA industry is oriented toward consolidation and that we can achieve significant growth through further acquisitions as well as by organically growing our existing MMA promotions. According to the Association of Boxing Commissions, there are presently more than 1,160 registered MMA promoters in the United States and we believe this number exceeds 8,000 worldwide. We estimate that no one promotion has more than a 1% share of the market. We further believe that regional MMA promoters are finding it increasingly difficult to attract the best prospects given the level of competition among regional MMA promoters to secure the best fighters. Since we anticipate promoting over 65 events annually and sending a significant number of fighters to elite promotions such as the UFC, Bellator, World Series of Fighting and other premier MMA promotion, we expect to be able to guarantee multiple fights to top prospects, thereby attracting high-quality fighters.

Competition

The market for live and televised MMA events and for historical MMA video content is extremely competitive.

The principal competitive factors in our industry include:

·The ability to attract and retain successful professional fighters in order to promote events that are appealing to fans and sponsors.

·The ability to promote a large number of events and bouts so that fighters are willing to commit to multi-fight agreements.

·The ability to command the attention of the UFC, Bellator, World Series of Fighting and other premier MMA promotion seeking professional fighters to promote on a national and/or international platform.

·The ability to produce high-quality media content on a consistent basis to secure television and other media distribution arrangements.

·The ability to generate brand awareness in the relevant geographic market.

Despite the competition we face, we believe that our approach of combining multiple regional MMA promotions under one umbrella organization enables us to leverage the collective resources and relationships of these promotions to address these competitive factors more effectively. In addition, our multi-regional and, over time, international, presence will enable us to offer sponsors and media outlets a broad geographic footprint in which to market products, services and content.

Based in Brooklyn, New York, and founded by MMA icon and three-time World Kickboxing Champion Louis Neglia (34-2), Ring of Combat is currently ranked as the No. 4 regional promotion in the world by Sherdog.com, a website devoted to the sport of mixed martial arts that is owned indirectly by Evolve Media, LLC. According to Sherdog.com, its rankings are determined by several factors including (i) the size of the shows put on by the regional promotion, (ii) the quality of fighters affiliated with the promotion, (iii) the number of fighters that matriculate to the UFC and other premier promotions such as Bellator MMA, (iv) the success those fighters have once elevated to the UFC and such other premier promotions, and (v) whether the promotion has a television or other media arrangement in place.

We acquired the exclusive rights to the Ring of Combat fighter library, which includes professional MMA, amateur, and kickboxing events and covers approximately 200 hours of video content. Ring of Combat has sent approximately 90 fighters to the UFC including UFC World Champions Matt Serra (11-7), Frankie Edgar (19-4), and Chris Weidman (13-0), whose fights are included in the Ring of Combat fighter library. We have also secured the media rights to all future Ring of Combat promotions.

Hoss Promotions, LLC “Hoss”

An affiliate of CFFC, Hoss owns the intellectual property rights to approximately 30 MMA events promoted by CFFC. We have acquired the exclusive rights to the Hoss fighter library, which covers approximately 100 hours of video content. 

Consideration Paid to Target Companies, Hoss and Louis Neglia

The aggregate consideration paid to acquire the businesses of the Target Companies and the MMA fighter libraries of Hoss and Louis Neglia was approximately $7.8 million, consisting of cash in the amount of $1.6 million, and shares of our common stock with a market value of $6.2 million based on our initial public offering price of $4.50 per share. With respect to each Target Company other than GFL, the purchase price will be adjusted upward in the event that, during the twelve-month period following the completion of the offering,event; customers typically pay such Target Company exceeds certain gross profit thresholds agreed upon by us and the Target Company. The upward adjustment to the purchase price will be a multiple of seven times the amount by which actual gross profit exceeds the agreed-upon gross profit threshold. Any increase in the purchase price will be paidfees within 60 days following the filing of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter immediately following the first full calendar year after the completion of our initial public offeringevent. We generate additional revenue from ticket services via CageTix, from fees earned through broadcast television advertising, internet streaming and will be paid in shares of our common stock valued at the lesser of (i) the initial public offering price at which shares were sold of $4.50pay-per-view offerings, as well as video production services via GFL, and (ii) the average of the closing trading price for our stock over the 20 trading days prior to the date on which we file such Form 10-Q.  from management overrides associated with fighter purses, third-party video pay-per-view sales, personal brand sponsorships and ancillary activities via SuckerPunch.

 

We valued the business of each Target Company using a number of factors including historical and projected future profitability and expectations of the business of each Target Company under the Alliance brand. Factors we considered include, but are not limited to, current financial position, professional fighter rosters, customer and venue arrangements, media library and other intellectual property rights, prominence in the MMA industry, nature and extent, if any, of sponsorships, television and pay-per-view arrangements, and other relevant characteristics. During our assessment of each Target Company, we recognized that the majority of value resided in the ability of the promoters to establish credible customer and venue relationships, the breadth of each promotion’s video library and related intellectual property rights and, in the case of CageTix, its proprietary ticketing software which we intend to leverage across our platform. While each promotion brings a unique value proposition on a stand-alone basis, we believe that on a combined basis significantly greater value can be realized, particularly in the areas of television and media sponsorship. 


Structure of Acquisitions

Although each acquisition agreement contains slightly different terms, we generally acquired the MMA video library and tangible assets of each of the Target Companies, but not their debt. We did, however, acquire the working capital of each Target Company in an amount sufficient to conduct each Target Company’s next scheduled promotional event. The acquisition of GFL is structured as a merger and we acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of GFL in consideration for cash and shares of our common stock. We will license the trademarks of the Target Companies under perpetual, royalty-free licenses that may be terminated only in the event of a material uncured breach of the respective agreement by us.

GFL offered these newer services at slightly reduced rates, which resulted in a decline in profit margins.

Operating expenses decreased by approximately $10,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2016, due to accounting expenses incurred in connection with the contemplated merger of GFL with a holly-owned subsidiary of Alliance in 2015.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2016, revenue decreased by $76,000, over the nine months ended June 30, 2015. This decrease was the result of the expiration of GFL’s overseas licensing deal and lower broadcast revenue from its promotions. To counter this loss, GFL sought out alternative revenue streams from non-MMA promotional events such as boxing, jiu jitsu, and lacrosse. GFL offered these newer services at slightly reduced rates, which resulted in a decline in profit margins.

Operating expenses remained relatively flat for the Nine months ended September 30, 2016, with the exception of accounting expenses incurred in connection with the contemplated merger of GFL with a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alliance in 2015.

HFC’s revenues increased approximately $65,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 over the same period in 2015.

While net revenue increased, HFC’s gross profit margin suffered slightly due to higher fighter expenses and venue production fees.

Operating expenses for the period, with the exception of accounting expenses incurred in connection with the contemplated sale of the HFC business to Alliance, were relatively flat.

During the periods covered by the financial statements presented, COGA has only held four events verses six events for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015. Due to scheduling conflicts at COGA’s main venue, this event was not held and is the primary reason for the large decrease in revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Operating expenses decreased primarily for the decrease in officer salary.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Attached as exhibits to this Form 10-Q are certifications of Alliance MMA, Inc.’sthe Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q does not include a report of management'smanagement’s assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission for newly public companies.

 

As we are an emerging growth company and a newly-public company with no material operating history prior to the completion of the first tranche of our initial public offering on September 30, 2016, we have only recently commenced implementing "disclosure“disclosure controls and procedures" ("procedures” (“Disclosure Controls"Controls”), as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. 

There are inherent limitations to the effectiveness of any system of disclosure controls and procedures. Accordingly, even effective disclosure controls and procedures can only provide reasonable assurance of achieving their control objectives. We conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our Disclosure Controls as of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The Disclosure Controls evaluation was done under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based upon this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, due to our limited financial and manpower resources, our Disclosure Controls were not effective as of September 30, 2016,March 31, 2017, such that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.

Management is in the process of determining how best to implement an effective system to insureensure that information required to be disclosed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and subsequent filings to be submitted under the Exchange Act will be recorded, processed, summarized and reported accurately. Our management intends to develop procedures to address these issues to the extent possible given the limitations in our financial and manpower resources. No assurance can be made the implementation of these controls and procedures will be completed in a timely manner or that such controls or procedures will be adequate once implemented.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

In the normal course of business or otherwise, we may become involved in legal proceedings. We will accrue a liability for such matters when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. When only a range of possible loss can be established, the most probable amount in the range is accrued. If no amount within this range is a better estimate than any other amount within the range, the minimum amount in the range is accrued. The accrual for a litigation loss contingency might include, for example, estimates of potential damages, outside legal fees and other directly related costs expected to be incurred. As

In April and May 2017, two purported securities class action complaints— Shapiro v. Alliance MMA, Inc., No. 1:17-cv-2583 (D.N.J.), andShulman v. Alliance MMA, Inc., No. 1:17-cv-3282 (S.D.N.Y.)—were filed against the Company and certain of September 30, 2016its officers in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey and December 31, 2015, we werethe United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, respectively.  The complaints allege that the defendants violated certain provisions of the federal securities laws, and purport to seek damages on behalf of a class of shareholders who purchased the Company’s common stock pursuant or traceable to the Company’s initial public offering.  We believe that these complaints are without merit and intend to defend vigorously against them.  Based on the very early stage of the litigation, it is not involved in any material legal proceedings.possible to estimate the amount or range of possible loss that might result from an adverse judgment or a settlement of these matters.
