NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2011
(unaudited)
(dollars in thousands)
NOTE 1- BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Digital Creative Development Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary (collectively, the "Company").
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011 and for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are unaudited and have been prepared by the Company in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to interim financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2011 and other information as of June 30, 2011 have been derived from the Company's audited annual financial statements. These condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures provided in the Company's annual financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended June 30, 2011 contained in the Company's Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All adjustments of a normal recurring nature, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of results for the periods presented have been made. The results of operations for the three months and six months ended December 31, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
NOTE 2- DOUBT AS TO CONTINUING AS A GOING CONCERN
Our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements were prepared on the assumption that we will continue as a going concern. We currently have a working capital and equity deficit of $2,396.8 and are in default of our notes payable. Our ability to obtain resources sufficient to continue to meet our obligations as they come due is dependent on raising cash through the sale of Broadcaster, Inc. shares, and/or raising additional equity and/or obtaining forbearance of our debt holders. We intend to use our cash as well as other funds, to the extent that they are available on commercially reasonable terms, to finance our activities. Although we can provide no assurance that these additional funds will be available in the amounts or at the times we may require, management believes that it can obtain the additional funds necessary to continue its operations.
NOTE 3- PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The Company has no active business. However, the Company has been involved in acquiring and investing in software and high technology companies, with a focus on acquiring controlling interests and has entered into the software technology industry through the investment in International Microcomputer Software, Inc. (“IMSI”), (n/k/a Broadcaster, Inc). Since 1982, IMSI (n/k/a Broadcaster, Inc.) had been a developer and publisher of productivity software in precision design, graphics design and other related business applications, as well as graphics and CAD (Computer Aided Design) software and internet technology. Broadcaster, Inc. also operates an Internet entertainment network.

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (GAAP) includes a framework for measuring fair value and disclosing fair value measurements. Under GAAP, fair value is the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. GAAP requires the Company to assume that the portfolio investment is sold in a principal market between market participants, or in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market, which may be a hypothetical market. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with GAAP, the Company has considered its principal market as the market in which the Company exits its portfolio investments with the greatest volume and level of activity. GAAP specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on the extent to which the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 – Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2 – Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly. |
Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

(dollars in thousands)
In addition to using the above inputs in investment valuations, we continue to employ the valuation policy approved by our board of directors that is consistent with GAAP. Consistent with our valuation policy, we evaluate the source of inputs, including any markets in which our investments are trading or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading, in determining fair value. Our valuation policy considers the fact that because there is not a readily available market value for the investments in our portfolio, the fair value of the investments must typically be determined using unobservable inputs.
The fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize significantly less than the value at which we have previously recorded it.
In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned.

(1) | On May 30, 2007 the Company and the lender (“Multi-Mag”) executed Amendment #5 to this Promissory Note to extend the maturity date of the Note to December 31, 2007. The Company and Multi-Mag are currently in negotiations to further extend the due date of the note. The Company’s management is confident that future extensions can be obtained. Although extensions were obtained in the past, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain these extensions, if needed. Interest expense in the amounts of $24.4 was charged to operations in the six months ended December 31, 2011. The note is secured by 200,000 shares of Broadcaster, Inc. common stock. |
(2) | Of the $345.0 Secured Promissory Notes, all but three of these noteholders whose notes total $195.0 have extended their notes to December 31, 2008. The Company's management is confident that future extensions can be obtained if necessary, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such extensions. The remaining three noteholders have not agreed to extend. Currently all of these notes are now in default. Interest expense in the amount of $72.7 was charged to operations in the six months ended December 31, 2011. These notes are secured by 373,845 shares of Broadcaster, Inc. common stock. |
Due to the recent decline in the price of shares of Broadcaster, these Notes are now under-collateralized.
The Company may, from time to time, sell a certain amount of its holdings in Broadcaster, Inc. The proceeds of these sales are anticipated to be principally used by the Company for general working capital purposes.

NOTE 7- COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial position.
NOTE 8- STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
In October 2005, the Company made a contingent award to each of its current directors, Gary Herman and Skuli Thorvaldsson, as well as an award to a former director and significant shareholder, Bruce Galloway based upon the board obtaining valuations and approvals. The award consisted of options granted to purchase 7,440,000 shares of common stock at exercise prices ranging from $0.0732 per share to $0.1385 and expiring through June 2015. These options, awarded for services rendered in connection with past services, including the restructuring of the Company in fiscal year 2002; director services; and other services, were valued at approximately $798.5 using the Black-Scholes model.
The Company’s Board of Directors has approved this compensation for services rendered to the Company by Messrs. Herman and Thorvaldsson contingent upon the receipt of a fairness opinion from an independent advisory firm and approval of such fairness opinion by the Board of Directors. That fairness opinion has been received and approved by the Board on February 2, 2011. The value of the related awards will approximate $798.5. Further, the Company finalized compensation agreements for Messrs. Herman and Thorvaldsson which include amounts to be paid for past services to the Company for the calendar years 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006.
Although the Board approved the plan on February 2, 2011, the Board may revise the plan in light of the current financial situation of the Company.
NOTE 9- STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
On December 13, 2011 the Company filed a 14C Information Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of increasing its authorized shares. A majority of the shareholders of the Company approved the increase in the Company’s authorized number of shares from 85,000,000 shares (75 million common shares and 10 million preferred shares) to 615,000,000 shares (600 million common shares and 15 million preferred shares) by Written Consent.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION
Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, other than the historical financial information, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties or other factors which may cause actual results, performance or achievement of the Company to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievement expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties related to the substantial capital requirements, development of effective internal processes and systems, the ability to attract and retain high quality employees, changing overall economy and other risks described herein and in the Company's June 30, 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
PLAN OF OPERATION
Digital Creative Development Corporation (the “Company”) was principally involved in acquiring and investing in software and high technology companies, with a focus on acquiring controlling interests. At present, the Company does not have an operating business except for its interest in Broadcaster, Inc., (OTCBB- BCAS). The Company has since begun to search for candidates with which to enter into business combinations or strategic transactions.
The Company intends to locate and enter into a transaction with an existing, public or privately-held company that in management's view has growth potential (a "Target Business"). A transaction with a Target Business may be structured as a merger, consolidation, exchange of the Company's common stock for stock or assets of the Target Business or any other form, which will result in the combined enterprise remaining a publicly-held corporation.
Acquisitions or business combinations may not always be available on terms acceptable to the Company, or at all. In addition, acquiring, or combining with, a business involves many risks, including:
· Unforeseen obligations or liabilities; |
· Difficulty assimilating the acquired operations and personnel; |
· Risks of entering markets in which we have little or no direct prior experience; |
· Potential impairment of relationships with employees or customers as a result of changes in management; |
· Potential dilutive issuances of equity, large and immediate write-offs, the incurrence of debt, and amortization of goodwill or other intangible assets; and |
· Unforeseen obligations or liabilities. |
We cannot make assurances that the Company will make any acquisitions or business combinations or that the Company will be able to obtain additional financing for such acquisitions or combinations, if necessary. If any acquisitions or combinations are made, we cannot make assurances that we will be able to successfully integrate the acquired or combined business into our operations or that the acquired or combined business will perform as expected. Furthermore, Federal and state tax laws and regulations have a significant impact upon the structuring of transactions. Management will evaluate the possible tax consequences of any prospective transaction and will endeavor to structure a transaction so as to achieve the most favorable tax treatment. There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service or relevant state tax authorities will ultimately assent to our tax treatment of a particular consummated transaction. To the extent the Internal Revenue Service or any relevant state tax authorities ultimately prevail in recharacterizing the tax treatment of a transaction, there may be adverse tax consequences to us, the target business, and/or their respective stockholders. Tax considerations as well as other relevant factors will be evaluated in determining the precise structure of a particular transaction, which could be effected through various forms of a merger, consolidation or stock or asset acquisition.
Pending negotiation and consummation of a transaction, the Company anticipates that it will not have any business activities, aside from carrying on its search for a transaction partner. Should the Company incur any significant liabilities prior to a combination with a Target Business, it may not be able to satisfy, without additional financing, such liabilities as are incurred.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Month Period Ended December 31, 2011 Compared To The Three Month Period Ended December 31, 2010.
Net loss of $77,500 in the three month period ended December 31, 2011 was slightly higher than the net loss of $60,400 in the comparable 2010 period, principally due to higher interest expense and, to a lesser extent, slightly higher general and administrative expenses as the result of higher accrued expenses for accounting and auditing services.
Six Month Period Ended December 31, 2011 Compared To The Six Month Period Ended December 31, 2010.
Net loss of $154,500 in the six month period ended December 31, 2011 was slightly higher than the net loss of $126,800 in the comparable 2010 period, principally due to higher interest expense and, to a lesser extent, slightly higher general and administrative expenses as the result of higher accrued expenses for accounting and auditing services.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by approximately $2,396,800 at December 31, 2011, compared to current liabilities exceeding its current assets by $2,227,900 at June 30, 2011. The change in this financial condition was principally the result of continued operating losses, principally the result of interest expenses and other administrative costs.
Since the Company is inactive, except for its interest in Broadcaster, and it is not contemplated that Broadcaster will declare and pay dividends on its common stock, the Company depends upon sales of its shares of Broadcaster, Inc common stock, which are quoted on the OTCBB in order to meet its expenses, unless the Company obtains funding from third parties, of which there can be no assurance.
The amount of proceeds available to the Company from the sale of shares of Broadcaster, Inc. depends upon the market for Broadcaster, Inc. shares, which is subject to volatility in price and market volume.
The proceeds of any such sales are anticipated to be principally used by the Company for general working capital purposes. The Company anticipates that its working capital needs will be financed by sales of Broadcaster shares until and unless the Company acquires a profitable operating business or makes other investments.
The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements were prepared on the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern. Considering the working capital and equity deficit of $2,396,800, and the fact that we are in default of our notes payable, the Company’s ability to obtain resources sufficient to continue to meet obligations as they come due is dependent on raising cash through the sale of Broadcaster, Inc. shares and/or raising additional equity; and obtaining forbearance of our debt holders. However the Company can provide no assurance that these additional funds will be available in the amounts or at the times required. Management currently believes that it can obtain the additional funds necessary to continue its operations.
