		1	DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
	Business

The Company’s collection of digital services provides users, subscribers and advertisers with a variety of content and tools through a range of online, social media, tablet and mobile channels.  Our mission is to provide investors and advisors with actionable ideas from the world of investing, finance and business, and dealmakers with sophisticated analysis of the mergers and acquisitions environment, in order to break down information barriers, level the playing field and help all individuals and organizations grow their wealth. With a robust suite of digital services, TheStreet offers the tools and insights needed to make informed decisions about earning, investing, saving and spending money. Since its inception in 1996, TheStreet believes it has distinguished itself from other digital media companies with its journalistic excellence, unbiased approach and interactive multimedia coverage of the financial markets, economy, industry trends, investment and financial planning.
	Basis of Presentation
	The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) and for quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The financial statements require the use of management estimates and include the accounts of the Company as required by GAAP.  Operating results for the nine month period ended September 30, 2014 is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2014.
	The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
	For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 28, 2014 (“2013 Form 10-K”).
	The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASU 2014-09"). ASU 2014-09 requires that an entity recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods therein, and can be applied either retrospectively to each period presented or as a cumulative-effect adjustment as of the date of adoption. We are currently evaluating the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard in 2017.

		3	CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS, MARKETABLE SECURITIES AND RESTRICTED CASH
	The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash primarily consist of money market funds and checking accounts. Marketable securities consist of investment grade corporate bonds and floating rate notes, and two municipal auction rate securities (“ARS”) issued by the District of Columbia with a par value of approximately $1.9 million. As of September 30, 2014, the total fair value of these marketable securities was approximately $7.6 million and the total cost basis was approximately $7.9 million. As of December 31, 2013, the total fair value of these marketable securities was approximately $13.1 million and the total cost basis was approximately $13.3 million. The decrease in marketable securities was due to the Company not reinvesting the proceeds as securities matured. With the exception of the ARS, the maximum maturity for any investment is three years. The ARS mature in the year 2038. The Company accounts for its marketable securities in accordance with the provisions of ASC 320-10. The Company classifies these securities as available for sale and the securities are reported at fair value. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and excluded from net loss. Additionally, the Company has a total of approximately $1.3 million of cash that serves as collateral for outstanding letters of credit, and which cash is therefore restricted. The letters of credit serve as security deposits for the Company’s office space in New York City.

		4	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
	The Company measures the fair value of its financial instruments in accordance with ASC 820-10, which refines the definition of fair value, provides a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the reporting date. The statement establishes consistency and comparability by providing a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques into three broad levels, which are described below:
		•		Level 1: Inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (these are observable market inputs).
		•		Level 2: Inputs are inputs other than quoted market prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability (includes quoted market prices for similar assets or identical or similar assets in markets in which there are few transactions, prices that are not current or vary substantially).
		•		Level 3: Inputs are unobservable inputs that reflect the entity’s own assumptions in pricing the asset or liability (used when little or no market data is available).
	Financial assets and liabilities included in our financial statements and measured at fair value are classified based on the valuation technique level in the table below:
			As of September 30, 2014

		-1	Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash primarily consist of money market funds and checking accounts for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices.
		-2	Marketable securities primarily consist of investment grade corporate bonds and floating rate notes for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices. Marketable securities also consist of two municipal ARS issued by the District of Columbia having a fair value totaling approximately $1.6 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Historically, the fair value of ARS investments approximated par value due to the frequent resets through the auction process. Due to events in credit markets, the auction events, which historically have provided liquidity for these securities, have been unsuccessful. The result of a failed auction is that these ARS holdings will continue to pay interest in accordance with their terms at each respective auction date; however, liquidity of the securities will be limited until there is a successful auction, the issuer redeems the securities, the securities mature or until such time as other markets for these ARS holdings develop. For each of our ARS, we evaluate the risks related to the structure, collateral and liquidity of the investment, and forecast the probability of issuer default, auction failure, a successful auction at par, or a redemption at par, for each future auction period. Temporary impairment charges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, whereas other-than-temporary impairment charges are recorded in our consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2014, the Company determined that there was a decline in the fair value of its ARS investments of $300 thousand from its cost basis, which was deemed temporary and was included within accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company used both a discounted cash flow and market approach model to determine the estimated fair value of its investment in ARS. The assumptions used in preparing the discounted cash flow model include estimates for interest rate, timing and amount of cash flows and expected holding period of ARS.
	The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance for the Company’s marketable securities measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

			Securities
	Balance at December 31, 2013		$	1,580,000

		5	STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
	The Company estimates the fair value of stock option awards on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. This determination is affected by the Company’s stock price as well as assumptions regarding expected volatility, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividend yields. Because option-pricing models require the use of subjective assumptions, changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value of the options. The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of stock option awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $0.46 and $0.63, respectively, using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
			For the Nine Months Ended
			September 30,
			2014				2013
	Expected option lives			3.5 years				3.7 years
	Expected volatility			35.98	%			40.14	%
	Risk-free interest rate			1.04	%			0.85	%
	Expected dividend yield			4.04	%			0	%
	The value of each restricted stock unit awarded is equal to the closing price per share of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of grant. The weighted-average grant date fair value per share of restricted stock units granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 was $2.23 and $1.69, respectively.
	For both option and restricted stock unit awards, the value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods.
	As of September 30, 2014, there remained 1,788,631 shares available for future awards under the Company’s 2007 Performance Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). In connection with awards under both the 2007 Plan and awards issued outside of the Plan, the Company recorded approximately $491 thousand and $1.4 million of noncash stock-based compensation for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, as compared to approximately $418 thousand and $1.6 million (inclusive of $393 thousand included in restructuring and other charges) of noncash stock-based compensation for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013, respectively. As of September 30, 2014, there was approximately $3.8 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense remaining to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.9 years.
	A summary of the activity of the 2007 Plan, and awards issued outside of the Plan pertaining to stock option grants is as follows:

	Treasury Stock
	In December 2000, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $10 million of the Company’s Common Stock, from time to time, in private purchases or in the open market. In February 2004, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the resumption of the stock repurchase program (the “Program”) under new price and volume parameters, leaving unchanged the maximum amount available for repurchase under the Program. However, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Series B Preferred Stock, voting separately as a single class, is necessary for the Company to repurchase its Common Stock (except for the purchase or redemption from employees, directors and consultants pursuant to agreements providing us with repurchase rights upon termination of their service with us), unless after such purchase we have unrestricted cash (net of all indebtedness for borrowed money, purchase money obligations, promissory notes or bonds) equal to at least two times the product obtained by multiplying the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding at the time such dividend is paid by the liquidation preference. During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company did not purchase any shares of Common Stock under the Program. Since inception of the Program, the Company has purchased a total of 5,453,416 shares of Common Stock at an aggregate cost of approximately $7.3 million.
	In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2007 Plan, and certain procedures adopted by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, in connection with the exercise of stock options by certain of the Company’s employees, and the issuance of shares of Common Stock in settlement of vested restricted stock units, the Company may withhold shares in lieu of payment of the exercise price and/or the minimum amount of applicable withholding taxes then due. Through September 30, 2014, the Company had withheld an aggregate of 1,394,368 shares which have been recorded as treasury stock.
	The Company has also received an aggregate of 208,270 shares as partial settlement of the working capital and debt adjustment from the acquisition of Corsis Technology Group II LLC and 3,338 shares as partial settlement of the working capital adjustment from the acquisition of Kikucall, Inc. These shares have also been recorded as treasury stock.
	Dividends
	During the third quarter of 2014, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.025 per share on its Common Stock and its Series B Preferred Stock on a converted common share basis. The dividend payment totaled approximately $989 thousand. When combined with the quarterly cash dividend paid during the first and second quarters of 2014, year-to-date dividend payments totaled approximately $2.9 million. There were no dividends paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Earnings Per Share [Text Block]	'
		8	NET LOSS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
	Basic net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed using the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period, so long as the inclusion of potential common shares does not result in a lower net loss per share. Potential common shares consist of restricted stock units (using the treasury stock method), the incremental common shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options (using the treasury stock method), and the conversion of the Company’s convertible preferred stock (using the if-converted method). For the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, approximately 5.9 million and 4.6 million unvested restricted stock units and vested and unvested options to purchase Common Stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculation, as their effect would result in a lower net loss per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, approximately 5.9 million and 4.2 million unvested restricted stock units and vested and unvested options to purchase Common Stock, respectively, were excluded from the calculation, as their effect would result in a lower net loss per share.

		9	INCOME TAXES
	The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with ASC 740-10. Under ASC 740-10, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their tax bases. ASC 740-10 also requires that deferred tax assets be reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized based on all available positive and negative evidence.
	The Company had approximately $156 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2013, which results in deferred tax assets of approximately $64 million. The Company has a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as management concluded that it was more likely than not that the Company would not realize the benefit of its deferred tax assets by generating sufficient taxable income in future years. The Company expects to continue to provide a full valuation allowance until, or unless, it can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates its ability to utilize these assets.
	Subject to potential Section 382 limitations as discussed below, the federal losses are available to offset future taxable income through 2033 and expire from 2019 through 2033. Since the Company does business in various states and each state has its own rules with respect to the number of years losses may be carried forward, the state net operating loss carryforwards expire from 2014 through 2033. The net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2013 includes approximately $15 million related to windfall tax benefits for which a benefit would be recorded to additional paid in capital when realized. Based on operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and three month projections, management expects to generate a tax loss in 2014 and no tax benefit has been recorded.
	In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the ability to utilize the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards could be limited in the event of a change in ownership and as such a portion of the existing net operating loss carryforwards may be subject to limitation.

		11	RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES
	During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company recognized restructuring and other charges totaling approximately $386 thousand primarily related to noncash stock-based compensation costs in connection with the accelerated vesting of certain restricted stock units for a terminated employee.
	During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company implemented a targeted reduction in force. Additionally, in assessing the ongoing needs of the organization, the Company elected to discontinue using certain software as a service, consulting and data providers, and elected to write-off certain previously capitalized software development projects. The actions were taken after a review of the Company’s cost structure with the goal of better aligning the cost structure with the Company’s revenue base. These restructuring efforts resulted in restructuring and other charges of approximately $3.4 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. Additionally, as a result of the Company’s acquisition of The Deal, LLC (“the Deal”) in September 2012, the Company discontinued the use of The Deal’s office space and implemented a reduction in force to eliminate redundant positions, resulting in restructuring and other charges of approximately $3.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2012. Collectively, these activities are referred to as the “2012 Restructuring”.
	The following table displays the activity of the 2012 Restructuring reserve account during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. The remaining balance as of September 30, 2014 relates to the lease for The Deal’s office space which expires in August 2021.

	In December 2011, the Company announced a management transition under which the Company’s chief executive officer would step down from his position by March 31, 2012. Additionally, in December 2011, a senior vice president separated from the Company. As a result of these activities, the Company incurred restructuring and other charges of approximately $1.8 million during the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 Restructuring”).

	On October 31, 2014, the Company closed its previously announced acquisition. On October 7, 2014, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with Management Diagnostics Limited (“MDL”), a privately held company headquartered in London, England, and certain MDL shareholders to acquire all of the outstanding share capital of MDL. MDL is the owner of BoardEx, an institutional relationship capital management database and platform. Clients, including investment banks, consultancies and law firms use BoardEx to leverage their relationships and facilitate business and corporate development initiatives. The company was founded in 1999 and is based in London with additional offices in New York City and Chennai, India. BoardEx will be integrated into The Deal, a business unit of TheStreet that serves corporate dealmakers with analysis of mergers and acquisitions, private equity and restructuring. BoardEx’s proprietary people data will be combined with The Deal’s newsroom and transaction data, allowing subscribers to easily network with the very people they read about in The Deal’s exclusive editorial content. The acquisition of BoardEx advances the strategic objectives of TheStreet by increasing both institutional content and subscribers.
	The Company paid net cash consideration of approximately $21 million at closing, of which $1.5 million was placed in escrow which will be used to secure indemnity obligations for a period of 24 months. Concurrent with the signing of the agreement, the Company also purchased warranty insurance from Pembroke Syndicate 4000 at Lloyds with a policy limit of $5 million dollars, subject to a deductible. In addition, an earn-out may be payable in 2018 based on 2017 net revenue of BoardEx’s existing products and services. The results of operations of MDL will be included in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2014 from the date of acquisition.

		-1	Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash primarily consist of money market funds and checking accounts for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices.
		-2	Marketable securities primarily consist of investment grade corporate bonds and floating rate notes for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices. Marketable securities also consist of two municipal ARS issued by the District of Columbia having a fair value totaling approximately $1.6 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Historically, the fair value of ARS investments approximated par value due to the frequent resets through the auction process. Due to events in credit markets, the auction events, which historically have provided liquidity for these securities, have been unsuccessful. The result of a failed auction is that these ARS holdings will continue to pay interest in accordance with their terms at each respective auction date; however, liquidity of the securities will be limited until there is a successful auction, the issuer redeems the securities, the securities mature or until such time as other markets for these ARS holdings develop. For each of our ARS, we evaluate the risks related to the structure, collateral and liquidity of the investment, and forecast the probability of issuer default, auction failure, a successful auction at par, or a redemption at par, for each future auction period. Temporary impairment charges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, whereas other-than-temporary impairment charges are recorded in our consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2014, the Company determined that there was a decline in the fair value of its ARS investments of $300 thousand from its cost basis, which was deemed temporary and was included within accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company used both a discounted cash flow and market approach model to determine the estimated fair value of its investment in ARS. The assumptions used in preparing the discounted cash flow model include estimates for interest rate, timing and amount of cash flows and expected holding period of ARS.

[1]	Marketable securities primarily consist of investment grade corporate bonds and floating rate notes for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices. Marketable securities also consist of two municipal ARS issued by the District of Columbia having a fair value totaling approximately $1.6 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Historically, the fair value of ARS investments approximated par value due to the frequent resets through the auction process. Due to events in credit markets, the auction events, which historically have provided liquidity for these securities, have been unsuccessful. The result of a failed auction is that these ARS holdings will continue to pay interest in accordance with their terms at each respective auction date; however, liquidity of the securities will be limited until there is a successful auction, the issuer redeems the securities, the securities mature or until such time as other markets for these ARS holdings develop. For each of our ARS, we evaluate the risks related to the structure, collateral and liquidity of the investment, and forecast the probability of issuer default, auction failure, a successful auction at par, or a redemption at par, for each future auction period. Temporary impairment charges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, whereas other-than-temporary impairment charges are recorded in our consolidated statement of operations. As of September 30, 2014, the Company determined that there was a decline in the fair value of its ARS investments of $300 thousand from its cost basis, which was deemed temporary and was included within accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company used both a discounted cash flow and market approach model to determine the estimated fair value of its investment in ARS. The assumptions used in preparing the discounted cash flow model include estimates for interest rate, timing and amount of cash flows and expected holding period of ARS.
