| Description of Business: Officeware Corporation (“Officeware”), a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Immediatek, Inc. (“Immediatek”), provides online back-up, file storage and other web-based services for individuals, businesses and governmental organizations. Officeware offers three primary services. First, Officeware operates the website FilesAnywhere.com, primarily designed for individuals and small businesses to allow them to establish a self-service account, enabling them to, among other things, store files on Officeware servers, share and collaborate on documents with other people online, and backup their computers to FilesAnywhere cloud storage. Second, for larger business users, Officeware offers two customized products, called the FilesAnywhere Professional and Enterprise Plans. These corporate offerings are designed to meet the specific requirements of each business customer or organization. The Professional and Enterprise Plan products provide flexible cloud storage and unlimited scalability for users, groups and internet applications, along with client-specific branding and web interfaces, customer data interfaces, and tailored security for mixed corporate environments. Third, Officeware also provides specialized information technology services related to the development of web based databases and data storage on a contract basis for clients. | |
| Officeware's operations are primarily based in Bedford, Texas. Additionally, Officeware has one employee and several consultants performing software maintenance and research and development in India. The cost of the India operations was approximately $87,469 and $264,706 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, and was approximately $131,022 and $415,074 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, and is included in research and development expenses in Immediatek's consolidated financial statements. | |
| Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Immediatek have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and formatted disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) have been omitted pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. These consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Immediatek's wholly-owned subsidiaries, Officeware, DiscLive, Inc. and IMKI Ventures, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in these consolidated financial statements. The Company follows the Financial Accounting Standard Board's Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification” or “ASC”). The Codification is the single source of authoritative accounting principles applied by nongovernmental entities in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP. | |
| The Company's consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2014 and consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 and consolidated statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, these financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. These adjustments were of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Additional information is contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, which was filed with the SEC on March 31, 2014 and should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. | |
| Net Loss per Share: For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding was the same for calculating both basic and diluted loss per share. Series A and Series B Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into 14,794,999 shares of common stock were not included in the computation of diluted loss per share, as the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive. | |
| Comprehensive Loss: For all periods presented, comprehensive loss is equal to net loss. | |
| Liquidity: Management believes that the funds generated by the operation of Officeware, along with the remaining proceeds from a lawsuit settled in the second quarter of 2013, will provide us with the necessary funds to operate our business for 2014. With the planned operating expense reductions in place for 2014 and the various sales and marketing plans that we have undertaken along with new product offerings, we believe there will be an increase in funds generated from operating activities, although no assurances can be given that those plans and measures will be successful. | |
| If we determine that we need additional capital in the future, it may not be available on favorable terms, or at all, which could place limits on our financial and operational flexibility. Furthermore, if we raise additional funds through further issuances of equity, convertible debt securities or other securities convertible into equity, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution in their percentage ownership of our Company, and any new securities we issue could have rights, preferences or privileges senior to those of existing or future holders of our common stock. An inability to obtain necessary financing on terms satisfactory to us, if and when we require it, could negatively affect our ability to grow or support our business and to respond to business challenges. | |

| Management Services Agreement. On December 31, 2009, the Company entered into a Management Services Agreement with Radical Ventures, L.L.C., an affiliate of Radical Holdings LP, our largest shareholder. Pursuant to this Management Services Agreement, personnel of Radical Ventures, L.L.C. provide certain management services to the Company, including, among others, legal, financial, marketing and technology services.

| This agreement may be terminated upon 30 days' written notice by Radical Ventures, L.L.C. for any reason or by the Company in the event of Radical Ventures, L.L.C.'s gross negligence.
