NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the presentation of interim financial information, but do not include all the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. The audited financial statements for the year ended August 31, 2009 were filed on December 21, 2009 with the Securities and Exchange Commission and is hereby incorporated by reference. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months period ended November 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended August 31, 2010.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries WallStreet Direct, Inc., Digital Wall Street, Inc., Financial Filings, Corp., My WallStreet, Inc. and Wealth Expo Inc. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
In preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less from the date of purchase that are readily convertible into cash to be cash equivalents.
Accounts Receivable
The Company maintains reserves for potential credit losses on accounts receivable. Management reviews the composition of accounts receivable and analyzes historical bad debts, customer concentrations, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in customer payment patterns to evaluate the adequacy of these reserves. Reserves are recorded primarily on a specific identification basis.
Allowance for doubtful debts amounted to $229,099 and $201,872 as of November 30, 2009 and August 31, 2009, respectively.
Marketable Securities
The Company’s investments in securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.
Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity. Realized and unrealized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive gain, respectively.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the assets from three to five years. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.
Revenue Recognition Policy
We recorded revenues on the basis of services provide to our client for a fixed determinable fee pursuant to a contractual agreement. In lieu of providing services, we receive from our clients’ cash and/or securities, as compensation for providing such services.
Our primary source of revenue is generated from providing Internet based media and advertising services and a full array of customized investor awareness programs to small and medium sized companies through its financial websites www.wallst.net and my.wallst.net. The services includes audio and video production of senior management interviews, text and display advertising, press releases, e-mail marketing, and promotion across our network of web sites. These services are provided by our subsidiaries WallStreet Direct, Inc. and Digital WallStreet, Inc. Revenues from Internet based media and advertising services are recognized and recorded when the performance of such services completed. We adhere to the guidelines established under Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 whereby, we execute a contractual agreement with the client for a fixed fee to perform services, delivery of services had occurred when we perform the contracted services, and collectibility of the fees have occurred when we receive cash and/or marketable securities in satisfaction for services provide.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Statement of financial accounting standard No. 107 (ASC 825), Disclosures about fair value of financial instruments, requires that the Company disclose estimated fair values of financial instruments. The carrying amounts reported in the statements of financial position for assets and liabilities qualifying, as financial instruments are a reasonable estimate of fair value.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk are cash, accounts receivable and marketable securities. The Company places its cash with financial institutions deemed by management to be of high credit quality. The amount on deposit in any one institution that exceeds federally insured limits is subject to credit risk. All of the Company’s investment in marketable securities are considered “available-for-sale” and are carried at their fair value, with unrealized gains and losses (net of income taxes) that are temporary in nature recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the accompanying balance sheets. The fair values of the Company’s investments in marketable securities are determined based on market quotations. Exposure to losses on receivables is principally dependent on each customer's financial condition. The Company monitors its exposure for credit losses and maintains allowances for anticipated losses, as required.
Reporting Segments
Statement of financial accounting standards No.131 (ASC 250), Disclosures about segments of an enterprise and related information SFAS No. 131 (ASC 250) , which superseded statement of financial accounting standards No. 14, Financial reporting for segments of a business enterprise, establishes standards for the way that public enterprises report information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires reporting of selected information about operating segments in interim financial statements regarding products and services, geographic areas and major customers. SFAS No. 131(ASC 250) defines operating segments as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performances.
The Company offers a broad range of services to its clients and its primary source of revenue is generated from providing Internet based media and advertising services and a full array of customized investor awareness programs to small and medium sized companies through its financial websites http://www.wallst.net, http://my.wallst.net and http://tv.wallst.net. The Company also provides news wire and compliance services including preparation of registration statements, electronic filings and reporting of SEC documents (EDGAR), preparation of proxy materials and news distribution to the same types of clients whom the Company provides Internet based media and advertising services. The Company started to offer a broad range of information on investing techniques and education tools to investors through workshops, exhibition sales, speaking presentation sales, collateral material sales and advertising sales.
However, the revenue generated, assets and net loss from the two sources, i.e. news wire and compliance services, and investing techniques and education tools services, is less than 10% of the total revenue, total assets and total net loss, respectively. Hence, SFAS 131 has no effect on the Company's financial statements as substantially all of the Company's operations are conducted in one primary industry segment i.e. providing Internet based media and advertising services and a full array of customized investor awareness programs to small and medium sized companies.
Stock-Based Compensation
The Company adopted SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123R”) (ASC 718), under the modified-prospective transition method on January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 123R requires companies to measure and recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value
Issuance of Shares for Services
The Company accounts for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Comprehensive Income
Statement of financial accounting standards No. 130 (ASC 220), Reporting comprehensive income (SFAS No. 130), establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances. Comprehensive income is defined to include all changes in equity, except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners. Among other disclosures, SFAS No. 130 requires that all items that are required to be recognized under current accounting standards as components of comprehensive income be reported in financial statements that are displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU2009-13 on our financial statements.
In October, 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 470 “Debt”, (“ASU 2009-15”), and provides guidance for accounting and reporting for own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of a convertible debt issuance. At the date of issuance, a share-lending arrangement entered into on an entity’s own shares should be measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820 and recognized as an issuance cost, with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Loaned shares are excluded from basic and diluted earnings per share unless default of the share-lending arrangement occurs. The amendments also require several disclosures including a description and the terms of the arrangement and the reason for entering into the arrangement. The effective dates of the amendments are dependent upon the date the share-lending arrangement was entered into and include retrospective application for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2009-15 on our financial statements.
In December, 2009, under FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” New authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” amends prior accounting guidance to enhance reporting about transfers of financial assets, including securitizations, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity” and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance also requires additional disclosures about all continuing involvements with transferred financial assets including information about gains and losses resulting from transfers during the period. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860 will be effective January 1, 2010 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 13 BASIC AND DILUTED NET LOSS PER SHARE
Net loss per share is calculated in accordance with the Statement of financial accounting standards No. 128 (SFAS No. 128) (ASC 260),, “Earnings per share.” SFAS No. 128 superseded Accounting Principles Board Opinion No.15 (APB 15). Net loss per share for all periods presented has been restated to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 128. Basic net loss per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted net loss per share is based on the assumption that all dilutive convertible shares and stock options were converted or exercised. Dilution is computed by applying the treasury stock method. Under this method, options and warrants are assumed to be exercised at the beginning of the period (or at the time of issuance, if later), and as if funds obtained thereby were used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period.
Weighted average number of shares used to compute basic and diluted loss per share is the same since the effect of dilutive securities is anti-dilutive for the three month periods ended November 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

NOTE 16 GOING CONCERN
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, which contemplate continuation of the Company as a going concern. This basis of accounting contemplates the recovery of the Company's assets and the satisfaction of its liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company had an accumulated deficit of $16,323,981 as of November 30, 2009 and has incurred net loss of $502,730 for the three months ended November 30, 2009. In view of the matters described in the preceding paragraph, recoverability of a major portion of the recorded asset amounts shown in the accompanying balance sheet is dependent upon continued operations of the Company, which in turn is dependent upon the Company's ability to raise additional capital, obtain financing and to succeed in its future operations. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or amounts and classification of liabilities that might be necessary should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
Management has taken the following steps to revise its operating and financial requirements, which it believes are sufficient to provide the Company with the ability to continue as a going concern. Management devoted considerable effort during the period ended November 30, 2009 towards (i) obtaining additional equity financing, (ii) evaluation of its distribution and marketing methods, and (iii) further streamlining and reducing costs.

Overview
On May 12, 2009, we changed our name from Financial Media Group, Inc. to Clicker, Inc. (the “Company,” "We," or "Clicker"). We are a web publisher brand builder focused on developing stand alone brands that incorporate social networking and reward properties that leverage content, commerce and advertising for the next generation global internet users.
We are attempting to build internet brands from the conceptual level to launch. Our strategy is to focus on the development of “big idea” type web properties. The strategy is to then develop these ideas from proof of concept to a developed website and then position the property to be sold to a larger managing principle and/or partner or continue to own and operate the entity.
The development of these internet websites has four main stages of development:
| Stage One: The idea and concept stage of a potentially good idea. At this stage a budget and timeline for the property is developed. The size of the market and our plan for integration or exit is established. Additionally the business model is introduced at this level. |
| Stage Two: The development of the property is laid out. Site layout and design is established. Logic and user flow and finally site architecture and design are established. |
| Stage Three: The site is launched and the operational model is implemented in beta form. We begin to scale some web traffic and begin to test the model. The site is officially launched in the beta stage and can be in a few different versions |
| Stage Four: Full operation stage and the property should now have gone though a couple stages of beta with the model pretty much established. The property is established for operation as a subsidiary while positioning for sale or executive control. |

Competition
Generally, competitive factors within the internet and web development market include the range and depth of financial tools and dimensions of email offerings, the quality of web site content, and the reliability of reference information provided. We are aware of several companies which are much larger and have greater name recognition, that provide some level of presence and awareness in similar delivery formats.
Results of Operations
Our consolidated results of operations for the three months ended November 30, 2009 and 2008 include our wholly-owned subsidiaries WallStreet, Financial Filings, Corp., My WallStreet, Inc., and The Wealth Expo Inc.
We reported a net loss of $502,730 for the three ended November 30, 2009 compared to net loss of $1,045,770 for the same periods ended November 30 2008. The loss was decreased due to significant reduction in management and marketing expenses, as more fully explained in "Operating Expenses" below.
Revenues
Revenues for the three months period ended November 30, 2009 were $198,920 compared to $834,787 for the same period in 2008, respectively. Revenues decreased by $635,867 (76%) during the three months ended November 30, 2009, as compared to the same period in 2008, due to significant decrease in advertisements on our website from the current economic conditions and recent downturn in financial markets, resulting in clients spending significantly less money on internet advertising.
Operating Expenses
Selling, general, and administrative expenses (S,G&A) for the three months ended November 30, 2009 were $442,145 compared to $1,010,478 for the same period in 2008. SG&A expenses decreased by $568,334 (59%) during the three months ended November 30, 2009 as compared to the same periods in 2008, primarily due to reduction in payroll costs, reduction in administrative, sales and marketing personnel due to downsizing as a result of reduction in revenues, and reduction in legal costs.
Impairment of marketable securities for the three months ended November 30, 2009 were $52,684 compared to $629,245 for the same periods ended in 2008. We had significant reduction in impairment compared to last year due to lack of securities available for sale and a reduction in receipt of securities as payment. Impairment expense was recorded because the market value of the securities we received as compensation for services declined in excess of 50% of their market value. This reduction in our judgment appeared to be other than temporary reduction in the fair value of the marketable securities. Therefore, we took a conservative approach of recording the impairment expense. Furthermore, to safeguard us with impairments of marketable securities, we have revised our contractual terms on agreements with our clients which provides that, in the event during the term of the agreement, the share bid price of client securities decline by more than 10% of the share bid price on the date of execution of the agreement, the client agrees to issue additional shares of their common stock to us in order to make up the deficiency caused by the reduction in the value of their stock. Implementation of this policy further helped us reduce our impairment expense during the three ended November 30, 2009
Depreciation expense for the three months ended November 30, 2009 was $8,120 compared to $15,135 for the same periods in 2008.
Interest expense for the three months ended November 30, 2009 was $100,612 compared to $7,511 for the same periods in 2008. Interest expense increased by $93,101 for the three months ended November 30, 2009 compared to the same period in 2008. The increase in interest expense for the three months ended November 30, 2009 resulted as we amortized the beneficial conversion feature interest on convertible notes issued during the quarter ended November 30, 2009.
Realized loss on sale of marketable securities for the three ended November 30, 2009 was $0 compared to $218,238 for the same periods in 2008. We sold marketable securities held in our possession and realized losses on their sale to fund our operating costs. Unrealized gain at November 30, 2009 was $723,046 compared to unrealized loss of $33,145 for the same period in 2008. Unrealized gain resulted from the increase in market value of the marketable securities held at November 30, 2009.
We recorded an expense of $93,556 in change of derivative liability for the three months ended November 30, 2009 as compared to zero for the same periods in 2008. The increased derivative liability resulted from our issuance of three convertible notes for the quarter ended November 30, 2009.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash and cash equivalents were $57,964 at November 30, 2009 compared to $32,380 at August 31, 2009. As shown in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, we recorded a loss of $502,730 for the three months ended November 30, 2009 compared to a loss of $1,050,570 for the same period in 2008. Our current liabilities exceeded our current assets by $3,329,754 at November 30, 2009 and net cash used in operating activities for the three months ended November 30, 2009 was $94,417. These factors and our ability to meet our debt obligations from current operations, and the need to raise additional capital to accomplish our objectives raises doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We expect significant capital expenditures during the next 12 months, contingent upon raising capital. These anticipated expenditures are for software development, assets additions, administrative overheads and working capital requirements. We do not have sufficient funds to conduct our operations for more than a month and we will need an additional $2,000,000 to fund our anticipated operations for the next 12 months, depending on revenues from operations. We have no contracts or commitments for additional funds and there can be no assurance that financing will be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all.
We presently do not have any available credit, bank financing or other external sources of liquidity. Due to our historical operating losses, our operations have not been a source of liquidity. We will need to obtain additional capital in order to expand operations and become profitable. In order to obtain capital, we may need to sell additional shares of our common stock or borrow funds from private lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in obtaining additional funding.
To the extent that we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities may result in dilution to existing stockholders. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of debt securities, these securities may have rights, preferences and privileges senior to holders of common stock and the terms of such debt could impose restrictions on our operations. Regardless of whether our cash assets prove to be inadequate to meet our operational needs, we may seek to compensate providers of services by issuance of stock in lieu of cash, which may also result in dilution to existing shareholders. Even if we are able to raise the funds required, it is possible that we could incur unexpected costs and expenses, fail to collect significant amounts owed to us, or experience unexpected cash requirements that would force us to seek alternative financing.
Whereas we have been successful in the past in raising capital, no assurance can be given that these sources of financing will continue to be available to us and/or that demand for our equity/debt instruments will be sufficient to meet our capital needs, or that financing will be available on terms favorable to us. If funding is insufficient at any time in the future, we may not be able to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, or may be required to reduce the scope of our planned service development and marketing efforts, any of which could have a negative impact on our business and operating results. In addition, insufficient funding may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, which could require us to:
- | curtail operations significantly; |
- | sell significant assets; |
- | seek arrangements with strategic partners or other parties that may require the company to relinquish significant rights to products, technologies or markets; or |
- | explore other strategic alternatives including a merger or sale of our company. |
We have been able to meet our obligations through liquidation of our “Market Securities” portfolio; however, we have missed opportunities to maximize our value, due to the untimely demands for cash not matching with the highest market value. The components of the current liabilities specifically the “Deferred Revenue” classification, reflects a more informative view. As we enter into sundry contracts for services with our customers, contractually the revenue is earned upon execution of the agreement. We are in compliance with GAAP and amortize this revenue stream over the life of the contract, resulting in a non-cash reduction of this liability.
Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2009 was $94,417 which resulted due to a decrease in receivables and other current assets of $90, an increase in accounts payable of $70,651 and an increase in accrued expenses and other liabilities of $164,978.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2009 was zero.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended November 30, 2009 was $120,000 from the issuance of a convertible note.
As a result of the above activities, we experienced a net increase in cash of $25,584 for the three months ended November 30, 2009. Our ability to continue as a going concern is still dependent on our success in obtaining additional financing from investors or through the sale of our marketable securities.
Application of Critical Accounting Policies
Marketable Securities and Impairments
Our investments in securities are classified as available-for-sale and, as such, are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices. Securities classified as available-for-sale may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, liquidity needs, and for other purposes.
Unrealized holding gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholder’s equity. Realized and unrealized gains and losses for securities classified as available-for-sale are included in the statement of operations and comprehensive gain, respectively.
We review, on a quarterly basis or more frequently if warranted by circumstances, the carrying value of the marketable securities we receive from our customers for providing services. We record impairment expense each quarter when the market value of the securities received show a consistent decline over 90 to 180 days, and the carrying amount of the marketable securities exceeds its fair value by 50% or more, and is deemed not recoverable. As such, we record on a quarterly basis in our financial statements the impairment loss for the difference between the carrying amount of the marketable securities and their fair value.
At the end of each quarter, we evaluate the marketable securities that show a consistent decline in market value than the cost over a period of 90 to 180 days for any possible impairment. We evaluate various factors relating to the securities one of which is the length of the time and the extent to which the market value has been less than cost. Our accounting policy is consistent with SFAS 115 and SAB Topic 5M, whereby we record impairment expense each quarter when the market value of the securities show a consistent decline over 90 to 180 days, and the cost of the marketable securities exceeds its fair value by a material amount (50% or more), and is deemed not recoverable. In those instances where impairment charges have been taken, the cost of the marketable securities on a quarterly basis is brought down to the market value of securities in our financial statements. The marketable securities are written down to zero only if the marketable securities are either de-listed or not traded. However, after an impairment for certain securities is recorded in a period, further impairment is recorded if the fair value of the securities in future period falls substantially (more than 50%) below the cost (after impairment adjustment) and if the decline in market value is consistent for a period of time. Accordingly, after the first impairment, we may record an unrealized loss for some period till we are convinced that there is further impairment in the marketable securities.
Revenue Recognition
We record revenues on the basis of services provided to our client for a fixed determinable fee pursuant to a contractual agreement. In lieu of providing services, we receive from our clients’ cash and/or securities, as compensation for providing such services.
Our primary source of revenue is generated from providing Internet based media and advertising services and a full array of customized investor awareness programs to small and medium sized companies through its financial websites www.wallst.net and my.wallst.net. The services include audio and video production of senior management interviews, text and display advertising, press releases, e-mail marketing, and promotion across our network of web sites. These services are provided by our subsidiaries WallStreet Direct, Inc. and Digital WallStreet, Inc. Revenues from Internet based media and advertising services are recognized and recorded when the performance of such services are completed. We adhere to the guidelines established under Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 whereby, we execute a contractual agreement with the client for a fixed fee to perform services, delivery of services has occurred when we performed the contracted services, and collectability of the fees has occurred when we receive cash and/or marketable securities in satisfaction for services provided.
We provide news wire and compliance services to small and medium size publicly traded companies including preparation of registration statements, electronic filings and reporting of SEC documents (EDGAR), preparation of proxy materials and news distribution. Such services are provided by our subsidiary Financial Filings Corp. Revenues are recognized and recorded when the performances of such services are completed. We adhere to the guidelines established under Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 whereby, we execute a contractual agreement with the client for a fixed fee to perform services, delivery of services has occurred when we completed the performed the contracted services, and collectability of the fees has occurred when we receive cash and/or marketable securities in satisfaction of services provided.
We provide a broad range of information on investing techniques and education tools to investors through workshops and exhibits. Our subsidiary, The Wealth Expo, provides us revenue streams through exhibition sales, speaking presentation sales, collateral material sales and advertising sales. Revenues from Wealth Expo services is recognized and recorded when the performance of such services are completed. We adhere to the guidelines established under Staff Accounting Bulletin 104 whereby, we execute a contractual agreement with the client for a fixed fee to perform services, delivery of services has occurred when we completed the performed the contracted services, and collectability of the fees has occurred when we receive cash and/or marketable securities in satisfaction of services provided.
Payments received in advance of services provided, are recorded as deferred revenue.
Stock-Based Compensation
We adopted SFAS No. 123 (Revised 2004), Share Based Payment (“SFAS No. 123R”) (ASC 718), under the modified-prospective transition method on January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 123R requires companies to measure and recognize the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant-date fair value. Share-based compensation recognized under the modified-prospective transition method of SFAS No. 123R includes share-based compensation based on the grant-date fair value determined in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, for all share-based payments granted prior to and not yet vested as of January 1, 2006 and share-based compensation based on the grant-date fair-value determined in accordance with SFAS No. 123R for all share-based payments granted after January 1, 2006. SFAS No. 123R eliminates the ability to account for the award of these instruments under the intrinsic value method prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and allowed under the original provisions of SFAS No. 123. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R, the Company accounted for our stock option plans using the intrinsic value method in accordance with the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and related interpretations.
Issuance of Shares for Service
We account for the issuance of equity instruments to acquire goods and services based on the fair value of the goods and services or the fair value of the equity instrument at the time of issuance, whichever is more reliably measurable.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-13, “Multiple-Deliverable Revenue Arrangements”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 605, “Revenue Recognition”, (“ASU 2009-13”). ASU 2009-13 requires entities to allocate revenue in an arrangement using estimated selling prices of the delivered goods and services based on a selling price hierarchy. The amendments eliminate the residual method of revenue allocation and require revenue to be allocated using the relative selling price method. ASU 2009-13 should be applied on a prospective basis for revenue arrangements entered into or materially modified in fiscal years beginning on or after June 15, 2010, with early adoption permitted. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU2009-13 on our financial statements.
In October, 2009, the FASB issued ASU 2009-15, “Accounting for Own-Share Lending Arrangements in Contemplation of Convertible Debt Issuance or Other Financing”, now codified under FASB ASC Topic 470 “Debt”, (“ASU 2009-15”), and provides guidance for accounting and reporting for own-share lending arrangements issued in contemplation of a convertible debt issuance. At the date of issuance, a share-lending arrangement entered into on an entity’s own shares should be measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820 and recognized as an issuance cost, with an offset to additional paid-in capital. Loaned shares are excluded from basic and diluted earnings per share unless default of the share-lending arrangement occurs. The amendments also require several disclosures including a description and the terms of the arrangement and the reason for entering into the arrangement. The effective dates of the amendments are dependent upon the date the share-lending arrangement was entered into and include retrospective application for arrangements outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2009. Management is currently evaluating the potential impact of ASU 2009-15 on our financial statements.
In December, 2009, under FASB ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing.” New authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing,” amends prior accounting guidance to enhance reporting about transfers of financial assets, including securitizations, and where companies have continuing exposure to the risks related to transferred financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance eliminates the concept of a “qualifying special-purpose entity” and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The new authoritative accounting guidance also requires additional disclosures about all continuing involvements with transferred financial assets including information about gains and losses resulting from transfers during the period. The new authoritative accounting guidance under ASC Topic 860 will be effective January 1, 2010 and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not required under Regulation S-K for “smaller reporting companies.”
Item 4T. Controls and Procedures
(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of November 30, 2009. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.
Based on our evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed at a reasonable assurance level and are effective to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
(b) Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
We regularly review our system of internal control over financial reporting and make changes to our processes and systems to improve controls and increase efficiency, while ensuring that we maintain an effective internal control environment. Changes may include such activities as implementing new, more efficient systems, consolidating activities, and migrating processes. There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
