| 1. | DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION |
Business
TheStreet, Inc., together with its wholly owned subsidiaries (“TheStreet”, “we”, “us” or the “Company”), is a leading digital financial media company focused on the financial and mergers and acquisitions environment. 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.

Since its inception in 1996, TheStreet believes it has distinguished itself from other financial 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 six month period ended June 30, 2015 is not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2015.
The consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2014 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, 2014, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 5, 2015 (“2014 Form 10-K”).
The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU 2014-09”), which supersedes nearly all existing revenue recognition guidance under GAAP. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is to recognize revenues when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which an entity expects to be entitled for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 defines a five step process to achieve this core principle and, in doing so, more judgment and estimates may be required within the revenue recognition process than are required under existing GAAP. On July 9, 2015, the FASB voted to defer the effective date by one year to December 15, 2017 for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after that date. Early adoption of ASU 2014-09 is permitted but not before the original effective date (annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016). When effective, ASU 2014-09 will use either of the following transition methods: (i) a full retrospective approach reflecting the application of the standard in each prior reporting period with the option to elect certain practical expedients; or (ii) a retrospective approach with the cumulative effect of initially adopting ASU 2014-09 recognized at the date of adoption (which includes additional footnote disclosures). We are currently evaluating the impact of our pending adoption of ASU 2014-09 on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.
In January 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-01,Income Statement — Extraordinary and Unusual Items (Subtopic 225-20): Simplifying Income Statement Presentation by Eliminating the Concept of Extraordinary Items(“ASU 2015-01”).ASU 2015-01 eliminates the concept of extraordinary items from GAAP but retains the presentation and disclosure guidance for items that are unusual in nature or occur infrequently and expands the guidance to include items that are both unusual in nature and infrequently occurring.ASU 2015-01 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2015.A reporting entity may apply ASU 2015-01 prospectively. A reporting entity may also apply ASU 2015-01 retrospectively to all periods presented in the financial statements.We believe the adoption of ASU 2015-01 will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
On October 31, 2014, the Company acquired all of the outstanding share capital of Management Diagnostics Limited (“MDL”), a privately held company headquartered in London, England. MDL is the owner of BoardEx, an institutional relationship capital management database and platform. The Company paid cash consideration of approximately $22.1 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. Additionally, the Company assumed net liabilities approximating $5.0 million, inclusive of a potential earn-out payable in 2018 based on 2017 net revenue of BoardEx’s existing products and services. 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.
The results of operations of MDL are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2015.Unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is presented below as if the acquisition of MDL had occurred on January 1, 2014. The historical financial statements of MDL were prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and have been converted to US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for purposes of the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information presented below. The results have been adjusted to account for the amortization of acquired intangible assets and to reclassify a defined benefit plan actuarial gain recorded by MDL within the statement of operations to accumulated other comprehensive income in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The pro forma information presented below does not purport to present what actual results would have been if the acquisition had occurred at the beginning of such period, nor does the information project results for any future period. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information should be read in conjunction with the historical financial information of the Company included in this report, as well as the historical financial information included in other reports and documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 is as follows:

| 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. As of June 30, 2015, marketable securities consist of two municipal auction rate securities (“ARS”) issued by the District of Columbia with a cost basis of approximately $1.9 million and a fair value of approximately $1.5 million. As of December 31, 2014, marketable securities also included an investment grade corporate bond, and the aggregate fair value of these marketable securities was approximately $3.6 million and the total cost basis was approximately $3.9 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 $1.2 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:

| (1) | Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash, totaling approximately $32.5 million and $33.8 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, consist primarily of money market funds and checking accounts for which we determine fair value through quoted market prices. |
| (2) | Marketable securities as of December 31, 2014 include an investment grade corporate bond for which we determined 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 $1.5 million and $1.6 million as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. 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, whereas other-than-temporary impairment charges are recorded in our consolidated statement of operations. As of June 30, 2015, the Company determined that there was a decline in the fair value of its ARS investments of $310 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 ARS investments. 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. |
| (3) | Contingent earn-out represents additional purchase consideration payable to the former shareholders of Management Diagnostics Limited based upon the achievement of specific 2017 audited revenue benchmarks. The probability of achieving each benchmark is based on Management’s assessment of the projected 2017 revenue. The present value of each probability weighted payment was calculated by discounting the probability weighted payment by the corresponding present value factor. |

| 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 six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $0.41 and $0.45, respectively, using the Black-Scholes model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
| | For the Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Expected option lives | | | 3.0 years | | | | 3.3 years | |
Expected volatility | | | 35.66 | % | | | 35.98 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | | | 0.99 | % | | | 0.94 | % |
Expected dividend yield | | | 4.51 | % | | | 4.11 | % |
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 six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 was $2.23 and $2.23, 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 June 30, 2015, there remained 1,788,838 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 2007 Plan, the Company recorded approximately $368 thousand and $741 thousand of noncash stock-based compensation for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015, respectively, as compared to approximately $417 thousand and $864 thousand of noncash stock-based compensation for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, there was approximately $2.7 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense remaining to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.
A summary of the activity of the 2007 Plan, and awards issued outside of the 2007 Plan pertaining to stock option grants is as follows:

For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the total fair value of share-based awards vested was approximately $557 thousand and $969 thousand, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, the total intrinsic value of options exercised was approximately $373 and $63 thousand, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, approximately 38 thousand and 76 thousand stock options, respectively, were granted, and approximately 1 thousand and 80 thousand stock options, respectively, were exercised yielding approximately $1 thousand and $148 thousand, respectively, of cash proceeds to the Company. Additionally, for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, approximately 96 thousand and 471 thousand restricted stock units, respectively, were granted, and approximately 129 thousand and 269 thousand shares, respectively, were issued under restricted stock unit grants.
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 six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, 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 June 30, 2015, the Company had withheld an aggregate of 1,579,575 shares which have been recorded as treasury stock. In addition, the Company 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 been recorded as treasury stock.
Dividends
During the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 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 $968 thousand and $957 thousand, respectively. When combined with the quarterly cash dividend paid during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, year-to-date dividends totaled approximately $2.0 million and $1.9 million, respectively.
The Company is party to legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business or otherwise, none of which is deemed material.
| 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 June 30, 2015 and 2014, approximately 3.5 million and 6.0 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 six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, approximately 4.1 million and 5.9 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.
The following table reconciles the numerator and denominator for the calculation.

Income tax expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 was approximately $255 thousand and $487 thousand, respectively, and reflects an effective tax rate of -61% and -42%, respectively. There was no tax expense in the three or six months ended June 30, 2014. Tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 primarily relates to the recognition of approximately $181 thousand of a deferred tax liability associated with goodwill that is tax deductible but constitutes an indefinite lived intangible asset for financial reporting purposes, as well as the recognition of approximately $74 thousand of income tax expense in certain jurisdictions where there are no net operating losses available to offset taxable income. Tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2015 primarily relates to the recognition of approximately $361 thousand of a deferred tax liability associated with goodwill that is tax deductible but constitutes an indefinite lived intangible asset for financial reporting purposes, as well as the recognition of approximately $126 thousand of income tax expense in certain jurisdictions where there are no net operating losses available to offset taxable income.
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 $149 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards as of December 31, 2014, which results in deferred tax assets of approximately $63 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 2034 and expire from 2019 through 2034. 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 2015 through 2034. The net operating loss carryforward as of December 31, 2014 includes approximately $16 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 six months ended June 30, 2015 and six month projections, management expects to generate a tax loss in 2015 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.
| 10. | BUSINESS CONCENTRATIONS AND CREDIT RISK |
Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. The Company maintains all of its cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in seven financial institutions, and performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these institutions. As of June 30, 2015, the Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash primarily consisted of money market funds and checking accounts.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, no individual client accounted for 10% or more of consolidated revenue. As of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, no individual client accounted for more than 10% of our gross accounts receivable balance.
The Company’s customers are primarily concentrated in the United States and Europe, and we carry accounts receivable balances. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations, generally does not require collateral, and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based upon factors surrounding the credit risk of customers, historical trends and other information. To date, actual losses have been within management’s expectations.
| 11. | RESTRUCTURING AND OTHER CHARGES |
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 six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014. The remaining balance as of June 30, 2015 relates to the lease for The Deal’s office space which expires in August 2021.

In March 2009, the Company announced and implemented a reorganization plan, including an approximate 8% reduction in the Company’s workforce, to align the Company’s resources with its strategic business objectives. Additionally, effective March 21, 2009, the Company’s then Chief Executive Officer tendered his resignation, effective May 8, 2009, the Company’s then Chief Financial Officer tendered his resignation, and in December 2009, the Company sold its Promotions.com subsidiary and entered into negotiations to sublease certain office space maintained by Promotions.com. As a result of these activities, the Company incurred restructuring and other charges of approximately $3.5 million during the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “2009 Restructuring”). During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a reduction to previously estimated charges resulting in a net credit of approximately $289 thousand.

Critical Accounting Estimates
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements in the period they are deemed to be necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include, but are not limited to, the following:
| · | useful lives of intangible assets, |
| · | useful lives of fixed assets, |
| · | the carrying value of goodwill, intangible assets and marketable securities, |
| · | allowances for doubtful accounts and deferred tax assets, |
| · | accrued expense estimates, |
| · | reserves for estimated tax liabilities, |
| · | estimates in connection with the allocation of the purchase price of Management Diagnostics Limited, The Deal, LLC and certain assets acquired from DealFlow Media, Inc. to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, |
| · | certain estimates and assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of equity compensation issued to employees, |
| · | restructuring charges, and |
| · | the calculation of a contingent earn-out payment from the acquisition of Management Diagnostics Limited. |
We perform annual impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of September 30 each year and between annual tests whenever circumstances arise that indicate a possible impairment might exist.
In conducting our annual 2014 goodwill impairment test through our independent appraisal firm, we used the market approach for the valuation of our common stock and the income approach for our preferred shares. We also performed an income approach by using the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) method to confirm the reasonableness of the results of the common stock market approach. Based on these approaches, we determined the Company’s business enterprise value (common equity plus preferred equity) exceeded its book value. The fair value of our outstanding Preferred Shares requires significant judgments, including the estimation of the amount of time until a liquidation event occurs as well as an appropriate cash flow discount rate. Further, in assigning a fair value to our Preferred Stock, we also considered that the preferred shareholders are entitled to receive a $55 million liquidation preference upon liquidation or dissolution of the Company or upon any change of control event. Additionally, the holders of the Preferred Shares are entitled to receive dividends and to vote as a single class together with the holders of the Common Stock on an as-converted basis and, provided certain preferred share ownership levels are maintained, are entitled to representation on our board of directors and may unilaterally block issuance of certain classes of capital stock, the purchase or redemption of certain classes of capital stock, including Common Stock (with certain exceptions) and any increases in the per-share amount of dividends payable to the holders of the Common Stock.
In conducting our 2014 annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test through our independent appraisal firm, we determined its fair value using the relief-from-royalty method. This analysis calculated the fair value as the present value of the future expenses avoided by owning the indefinite-lived trade name rather than having to license its use. We selected an appropriate royalty rate by reviewing licensing transactions for similar trade names and by considering the profitability associated with its operations. Based upon the analysis, we concluded that the book value of the indefinite-lived trade name was not impaired as of the September 30, 2014 valuation date.
A decrease in the price of our Common Stock, or changes in the estimated value of our Preferred Shares, could materially affect the determination of the fair value and could result in an impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of goodwill, which could be material to our financial position and results of operations.
A summary of our critical accounting policies and estimates can be found in our 2014 Form 10-K.
Contingencies
Accounting for contingencies, including those matters described in the Commitments and Contingencies section of Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of the Company’s 2014 Form 10-K, is highly subjective and requires the use of judgments and estimates in assessing their magnitude and likely outcome. In many cases, the outcomes of such matters will be determined by third parties, including governmental or judicial bodies. The provisions made in the consolidated financial statements, as well as the related disclosures, represent management’s best estimate of the then current status of such matters and their potential outcome based on a review of the facts and in consultation with outside legal counsel where deemed appropriate. The Company would record a material loss contingency in its consolidated financial statements if the loss is both probable of occurring and reasonably estimated. The Company regularly reviews contingencies and as new information becomes available may, in the future, adjust its associated liabilities.

Subscription services.Subscription services revenue is comprised of subscriptions, licenses and fees for access to securities investment information, stock market commentary, rate services, director and officer profiles, relationship capital management services, and transactional information pertaining to the mergers and acquisitions environment. Revenue is recognized ratably over the contract period.
Subscription services revenue increased by approximately $2.4 million, or 21%, over the periods. The increase was the result of approximately $2.4 million of additional revenue related to the operations of Management Diagnostics Limited (“MDL”), which was acquired on October 31, 2014 and therefore did not contribute any revenue in the prior year period. Excluding MDL, revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was essentially flat when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014.
Media.Media revenue is comprised of fees charged for the placement of advertising and sponsorships within TheStreet and its affiliated properties, our subscription and institutional services, and other miscellaneous revenue.
Media revenue decreased by approximately $52 thousand, or 2%, over the periods. The decrease was expected since the company reduced available inventory for advertising as we focus on enhancing user experience on our free sites.

Cost of services. Cost of services expense consists primarily of compensation, benefits, outside contributor costs related to the creation of our content, licensed data and the technology required to publish our content.
Cost of services expense increased by approximately $909 thousand, or 12%, over the periods.

Excluding MDL, cost of services expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by approximately $58 thousand, or 1%, when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily the result of reduced compensation and related expense due to a 6% decrease in average headcount (excluding the impact of headcount of MDL), the aggregate of which decreased by approximately $310 thousand. These cost decreases were partially offset by higher third-party data, business development and consulting costs, the aggregate of which increased by approximately $268 thousand.
Sales and marketing. Sales and marketing expense consists primarily of compensation expense for the direct sales force, marketing services, and customer service departments, advertising and promotion expenses and credit card processing fees.
Sales and marketing expense increased by approximately $355 thousand, or 9%, over the periods. The increase was the result of approximately $397 thousand of additional cost related to the operations of MDL, which was acquired on October 31, 2014 and therefore did not contribute any expense in the prior year period.

Excluding MDL, general and administrative expense for the three months ended June 30, 2015 decreased by approximately $105 thousand, or 3%, when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2014. The decrease was primarily the result of reduced contributions to TheStreet Foundation and the absence of costs related to a conference that the Company hosted in the prior year period that we expect to hold later this year. The aggregate of these cost decreases approximated $287 thousand. These cost decreases were partially offset by higher bad debt and tax related costs, the aggregate of which increased by approximately $183 thousand.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $416 thousand, or 58%, over the periods. The increase was the result of approximately $231 thousand of additional cost related to the operations of MDL, which was acquired on October 31, 2014 and therefore did not contribute any expense in the prior year period, combined with increased expense resulting from accelerating and fully depreciating the remaining book value of fixed assets acquired from The Deal.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our current assets as of June 30, 2015 consisted primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Our current liabilities as of June 30, 2015 consisted primarily of deferred revenue, accrued expenses and accounts payable. As of June 30, 2015, our current assets totaled approximately $37.9 million, 8% greater than our current liabilities.
We generally have invested in money market funds and other short-term, investment grade instruments that are highly liquid and of high quality, with the intent that such funds are available for sale for acquisition and operating purposes. As of June 30, 2015, our cash, cash equivalents, marketable securities and restricted cash totaled approximately $34.0 million, representing 32% of total assets. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash primarily consisted of money market funds and checking accounts. Our marketable securities consisted of two municipal auction rate securities issued by the District of Columbia with a par value of approximately $1.9 million and a fair value of approximately $1.5 million that mature in the year 2038. Our total cash-related position is as follows:
| | June 30, 2015 | | | December 31, 2014 | |
Cash and cash equivalents | | $ | 31,341,423 | | | $ | 32,459,009 | |
Current and noncurrent marketable securities | | | 1,540,000 | | | | 3,569,240 | |
Current and noncurrent restricted cash | | | 1,161,250 | | | | 1,301,000 | |
Total cash and cash equivalents, current and noncurrent marketable securities and current and noncurrent restricted cash | | $ | 34,042,673 | | | $ | 37,329,249 | |
Financial instruments that subject us to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash. We maintain all of our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in seven financial institutions, and we perform periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these institutions.
| | For the Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2015 | | | 2014 | |
Net cash provided by operating activities | | $ | 757,290 | | | $ | 2,026,671 | |
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities | | | (35,676 | ) | | | 4,554,835 | |
Net cash used in financing activities | | | (1,844,192 | ) | | | (1,801,206 | ) |

Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents | | $ | (1,117,586 | ) | | $ | 4,780,300 | |
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 totaled approximately $757 thousand, as compared to net cash provided by operating activities totaling approximately $2.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The reduction in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily the result of changes in the balances of accrued expenses and deferred revenue over the periods. These declines were partially offset by increased noncash expenses and the change in the balance of accounts receivable over the periods.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 totaled approximately $36 thousand, as compared to net cash provided by investing activities totaling approximately $4.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014. The reduction in net cash provided by investing activities was primarily the result of fewer maturities of marketable securities as well as increased capital expenditures.
Net cash used in financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 totaled approximately $1.8 million, essentially flat when compared to net cash used in financing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2014.
We have a total of approximately $1.2 million of cash that serves as collateral for outstanding letters of credit, which cash is classified as restricted. The letters of credit serve as security deposits for office space in New York City.
We believe that our current cash and cash equivalents will be sufficient to meet our anticipated cash needs for at least the next 12 months. We are committed to cash expenditures in an aggregate amount of approximately $5.1 million through June 30, 2016, primarily related to operating leases and minimum payments due under an employment agreement.
As of December 31, 2014, we had approximately $149 million of federal and state net operating loss carryforwards, which results in deferred tax assets of approximately $63 million. Based on operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and six month projections, management expects to generate a tax loss in 2015 and no tax benefit has been recorded. We maintain a full valuation allowance against our deferred tax assets as management concluded that it is more likely than not that we will not realize the benefit of our deferred tax assets by generating sufficient taxable income in future years. We expect to continue to maintain a full valuation allowance until, or unless, we can sustain a level of profitability that demonstrates our ability to utilize these assets.
In accordance with Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, the ability to utilize our 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.
Treasury Stock
Pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2007 Performance Incentive Plan, and certain procedures adopted by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors, in connection with the exercise of stock options by certain of our employees, and the issuance of shares of Common Stock in settlement of vested restricted stock units, we may withhold shares in lieu of payment of the exercise price and/or the minimum amount of applicable withholding taxes then due. Through June 30, 2015, we have withheld an aggregate of 1,579,575 shares which have been recorded as treasury stock. In addition, we 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.
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
We believe that our market risk exposures are immaterial as we do not have instruments for trading purposes, and reasonable possible near-term changes in market rates or prices will not result in material near-term losses in earnings, material changes in fair values or cash flows for all instruments.
We maintain all of our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash in seven financial institutions, and we perform periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of these institutions. However, no assurances can be given that the third party institutions will retain acceptable credit ratings or investment practices.
Following our acquisition of MDL, we expect that fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates will have an effect on our operating results.
Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: The Company carried out an evaluation, as required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting:In October of 2014, the Company completed the acquisition of MDL. See Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Acquisition) for additional information. As permitted by applicable guidelines established by the SEC, our management excluded the MDL operations from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2015.
The Company’s management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has determined that during the period covered by this report, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, these internal controls over financial reporting.
