Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
June 30, 2013
(Unaudited)
1. Business
The business of LYFE Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) is to develop, deploy, and operate next media and communications network based services in single-family, multi-family, high-rise, resort and hospitality properties.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted. These interim financial statements include all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries, which in the opinion of management, are necessary to present a fair statement of the results for the period. The results of operations for the periods ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
Use of Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Generally, matters subject to estimation and judgment include amounts related to asset impairments, useful lives of fixed assets, capitalization of costs for software developed for internal use, and derivative liabilities. Actual results may differ from estimates provided.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LYFE Communications, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Connected Lyfe, Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
8
Level one - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level two - Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level three - Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.
All cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at fair value. Additionally, we measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at June 30, 2013:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Total | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 |
Assets | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total Assets Measured at Fair Value | | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | - |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Liabilities | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Derivative Liability | | | $ | 101,670 | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | 101,670 |
Total Liabilities Measured at Fair Value | | | $ | 101,670 | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | 101,670 |
Recently Enacted Accounting Pronouncements
We have reviewed all recently issued, but not yet adopted, accounting standards in order to determine their effects, if any, on our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. Based on that review, we believe that none of these pronouncements will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) is the same as net income (loss).
3. Going Concern and Liquidity
The Company has an accumulated deficit through June 30, 2013 of $17,062,280, and has had negative cash flows from operating activities. These factors raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
In 2012 and through the first six months of 2013, sources of funding did not materialize as committed, and as a result, we have received insufficient funding to execute our business plan. We have accrued significant liabilities for which we do not have liquidity or committed funding to meet our current obligations. If new sources of financing are insufficient or unavailable, we will modify our growth and operating plans to the extent of available funding, if any. If we cease or stop operations, our shares could become valueless. Historically, we have funded operating, administrative and development costs through the sale of equity capital and short term related party and other shareholder loans. If our plans and/or assumptions change or prove inaccurate, and we are unable to obtain further financing, or such financing and other capital resources, in addition to projected cash flow, if any, prove to be insufficient to fund operations, our continued viability could be at risk. To the extent that any such financing involves the sale of our equity, our current stockholders could be substantially diluted. There is no assurance that we will be successful in achieving any or all of these objectives in the short term.

4. Property and Equipment
Property and equipment consisted of the following:
| | |
| June 30,
2013 | December 31,
2012 |
| | |
Computer equipment | $ 514,591 | $ 496,733 |
Furniture and fixtures | 2,824 | 2,824 |
Software | 9,196 | 9,196 |
| 526,611 | 508,753 |
Less accumulated depreciation | (434,976) | (372,085) |
| | |
Property and equipment, net | $ 91,635 | $ 136,668 |
5. Goodwill
Goodwill of $233,100 was recorded in the acquisition of properties from a telecom and video service provider in June 2011 and was equal to the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of December 31 or more frequently if indications of impairment arise. We did not impair any Goodwill during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
6. Intangible Assets
Intangible assets include internally developed software. We account for the costs of developing software in accordance with the provisions of FASB ASC Topic 350. We record our internal and external costs to develop software to be used internally for the deployment of the next generation video systems. We capitalize the costs during the application development stage when it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. We did not capitalize any development costs related to the application development of the next generation video systems in the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012. We will begin amortizing internally developed software when it is placed into service and will amortize the costs on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life, as determined by management. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the software has not been placed in service, no amortization has been recorded, and the software is recorded at cost of $282,861. We assess the projects for impairment when there are events or changes in circumstances that indicate the carrying amount might not be recoverable or when it is no longer probable that the project will be competed and placed in service. We did not impair any projects during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
Rights of entry agreements were acquired in the acquisition of properties from a telecom and video service provider in June 2011. The rights of entry agreements are negotiated with property owners at multiple dwelling properties such as apartment and condo complexes. The agreements allow the telecom service provider access to the customers on the property or exclusive marketing rights in exchange for a fee paid to the property owners. The agreements are typically for a five year period with options to renew at the end of the period. The right of entry agreements were recorded at their estimated fair value of $52,000 and amortized over a five year life on a straight line basis. Accumulated amortization of rights of entry was $20,800 and $15,600 as of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. We assess the agreements for impairment when there are events or changes in circumstances that
10
indicate the carrying amount might not be recoverable or when the properties that the agreements cover are no longer providing contribution margin. We did not impair any agreements during the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.
7. Other Assets
Other assets include payments of $350,000 made under a Video Systems Agreement for video distribution and content rights, as well as payments of $11,950 made for other separate security deposits. As discussed elsewhere in this report, the Video Systems Agreement is currently in dispute.

We have the right to prepay the convertible notes payable to the institutional investor along with accrued interest payable during the first 180 days following the date of each respective note. During that time, the amount of prepayment during the first 60 days is 130% of the outstanding amounts owed, with the amount of prepayment increasing each subsequent 30 days to 135%, 140%, 145% and 150% of the outstanding amounts owed. After the expiration of 180 days following the date of the notes, we have no right of prepayment.
For each of the convertible notes payable to the institutional investor, we have recorded debt issuance costs, a debt discount related to the estimated value of the derivative for the conversion feature of the note, and a derivative liability at the inception of the note. We amortize the debt discount to interest expense over the life of each respective note on a straight-line basis. The total discount on these convertible notes payable was $31,851 and $70,691 at June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
We have recorded a liability for the beneficial conversion factor attributed to the $5,000 note payable which is convertible into shares of our common stock at a price equal to 50% of the market price, and recognized this amount as interest expense. The liability was $5,877 and $5,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively
At June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, accrued interest payable on notes payable was $55,404 and $38,907, respectively.

Interest payable – related party was $87,275 and $68,300 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.
10. Derivative Liability
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we had the following activity in the accounts related to our convertible notes payable:
| | | |
| Derivative Liability | Debt Discount | Gain (Loss) on Derivative Liability |
| | | |
Balance at December 31, 2012 | $ 136,116 | $ (70,691) | |

| | | |
Balance at June 30, 2013 | $ 101,670 | $ (31,851) | $ 59,194 |
We estimated the fair value of the derivative for the conversion feature at the inception of the February 2013 note and for all convertible notes to the investor at June 30, 2013 using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following assumptions:
| February 2013 Note Inception | Range All Notes June 30, 2013 |
| | |
Risk-free interest rate | 0.13% | 0.02 – 0.07% |
Expected life in years | 0.75 | 0.05-0.75 |
Dividend yield | 0% | 0% |
Expected volatility | 190.10% | 147.38-190.10% |
11. Stockholders’ Equity
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we issued a total of 20,948,134 common shares which included 18,189,845 shares for cash proceeds of $617,529, 375,450 shares for accounts payable of $22,527, 1,375,000 shares for services valued at $106,500, and 1,007,839 shares for payment of notes payable of $30,000, reduction in debt discount of $ 6,600, reduction in derivative liability of $ 22,752 and loss on extinguishment of debt of $2,832.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we issued a total of 9,620,529 common shares which included 1,450,000 shares for services valued at $88,000, 7,180,529 shares for payment of notes payable of $205,989, interest of $5,000, and $9,850 in accounts payable, and 990,000 shares for cash proceeds of $198,000.
13
12. Warrants
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we issued warrants to purchase 2,000,000 shares of our common stock in connection with 550,000 of the 1,375,000 shares of our common stock we issued for services provided to the Company. Of the 2,000,000 warrants issued, 1,000,000 warrants have an exercise price of $0.40 per share with a two year expiration and immediate vesting, and 1,000,000 had an exercise price of $0.20 per share with a one year expiration and immediate vesting. We estimated the value of the warrants granted at $58,892 using the Black-Scholes option pricing model and have included this amount in selling, general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2013, no warrants have been exercised.
We estimated the grant date fair value of the warrants using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following range of assumptions:
Risk-free interest rate 0.15 - 0.27%
Expencted life in years 1.0 - 2.0
Dividend yield 0%
Expected volatility 113.86 - 201.39%
A summary of warrant activity for the six months ended June 30, 2013 is presented below:
The aggregate intrinsic values in the table above represent the total pretax intrinsic value (the difference between the closing market price of our common stock on June 28, 2013 of $0.04 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on June 31, 2013.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-looking Statements
Statements made in this Quarterly Report which are not purely historical are forward-looking statements with respect to the goals, plan objectives, intentions, expectations, financial condition, results of operations, future performance and our business, including, without limitation, (i) our ability to raise capital, and (ii) statements preceded by, followed by or that include the words “may,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “expects,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “targets” or similar expressions.
Forward-looking statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, and important factors (many of which are beyond our control) that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in the forward-looking statements, including the following, general economic or industry conditions, nationally and/or in the communities in which we may conduct business, changes in the interest rate environment, international gold prices, legislation or regulatory requirements, conditions of the securities markets, our ability to raise capital, changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines, financial or political instability, acts of war or terrorism, other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory and technical factors affecting our current or potential business and related matters.
Accordingly, results actually achieved may differ materially from expected results in these statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake, and specifically disclaim, any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.
Overview
LYFE Communications, Inc. is developing a technology base for next generation entertainment and communications. Through our wholly owned subsidiary, Connected Lyfe, Inc., our primary customer acquisition, operations and services division, LYFE Communications is truly integrating television, ultra high-speed Internet and enhanced voice services for delivery via Internet using IP (Internet Protocol).
Our technology innovations take traditional digital television delivery and convert it to an adaptive IP-based service. The result is dramatically lower cost of operation, new interactive capabilities and delivery to any device, in any location, at any time.
We provide high-speed data and voice services to consumers in six cities and will deploy next generation television services, with voice and data access, into each of these markets, offering the most innovative and compelling media and communications services to residential customers. Beyond these markets, we will deploy our innovative platform through acquisitions, partnerships, and technology licensing to major existing service providers.
Our technologies are the foundation for many exciting, customer-valued IP services for a rapidly growing market segment that lives “always on and connected,” accessing all the people, information and entertainment in their lives, on their terms – any time, any place, on any device.
16
We expect to significantly increase our subscriber base in 2013. We are currently under contract to provide our Data and Telephony services to 28 MDU properties spanning 6 cities in 2 states. These properties present a total market opportunity of over 12,000 units. These contracts can be characterized in one of two ways: bulk, or subscription. A “bulk” contract allows us to provide services to each and every tenant at the complex. We currently have 3 bulk contracts with a total customer base of 600. The remaining 25 contracts are “subscription”, meaning we have either an exclusive or non-exclusive marketing contract and/or Right of Entry (ROE) at the property. Our average penetration rate at the subscription properties is 10%, which represents a tremendous growth opportunity for us. Further, all of these contracts provide us with the opportunity to extend more services in the future. We are currently negotiating with some of the country’s largest REIT’s and property management groups to provide services to the properties they own and manage.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. During the period ended June 30, 2013, we believe there have been no significant changes to the items disclosed as significant accounting policies in management's notes to the consolidated financial statements in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, filed on April 15, 2013.
Nevertheless, our financial statements contained in this report have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements and elsewhere in this report, the Company has not established any significant source of revenue to sustain operations, has had negative cash flows from operations and has not received sufficient capital to sustain operations. These factors raise substantial doubt that the Company will be able to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Share-Based Compensation
We account for share-based compensation under the provisions of FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718-10-55. This statement requires us to record an expense associated with the fair value of share-based compensation. We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate share-based compensation at the date of grant. Option pricing models require the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the expected price volatility. Market approach analysis for pricing stock with infrequent trades and transactions require highly subjective assumptions, including restriction discount and blockage discounts. Changes in these assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LYFE Communications, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Connected Lyfe, Inc. All inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.
17
Revenue Recognition
We recognize revenue in accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 104, Revenue Recognition, (SAB 104). The criteria to meet this guideline are: (i) persuasive evidence of a sales arrangement exists, (ii) the sales terms are fixed and determinable, (iii) title and risk of loss have transferred, and (iv) collectability is reasonably assured. We derive our revenue primarily from the sale of Video, Data and Voice over Internet Protocol services and recognize revenues in the period the related services are provided and the amount of revenue is determinable and collection is reasonably assured.
Fair Value
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 established a three-tier fair value hierarchy which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). These tiers include:
Level one - Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level two - Inputs other than level one inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level three - Unobservable inputs developed using estimates and assumptions, which are developed by the reporting entity and reflect those assumptions that a market participant would use.
All cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are carried at fair value. Additionally, we measure certain financial instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows at June 30, 2013.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | Total | | Level 1 | | Level 2 | | Level 3 |
Assets | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Total Assets Measured at Fair Value | | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | - |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Liabilities | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Derivative Liability | | | $ | 101,670 | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | 101,670 |
Total Liabilities Measured at Fair Value | | | $ | 101,670 | | $ | - | | $ | - | | $ | 101,670 |
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are reflected at estimated net realizable value, do not bear interest and do not generally require collateral. We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts equal to the estimated collection losses based on historical experience coupled with a review of the current status of existing receivables. Customer accounts are reviewed and written off as they are determined to be uncollectible.
Results of Operations
Revenue - During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we recorded revenues of $58,726 and $159,241, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we recorded
18
revenues of $110,258 and $325,547, respectively. The decline in revenue in the current year is both a result of the transition in the subscriber base on the properties acquired in June 2011, which initially resulted in a decline of customers, as well as the sale of the UTOPIA customer base in October of 2012.
Direct Costs - Direct costs are comprised of programming costs, monthly recurring Internet broadband connections and VOIP costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, direct costs were $33,939 and $113,219, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, direct costs were $84,643 and $232,679, respectively. The decrease in direct costs in the current year is a result of the sale of the UTOPIA customer base in October of 2012, as well as a decrease in the subscriber base on the properties acquired in June 2011.
Selling, General and Administrative – Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $69,179 to $501,760 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 from $432,581 for the three months ended June 30, 2013. Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $458,270 to $1,129,860 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 from $671,590 for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in the current year is primarily the result of a growth in contractor and employee head count, due to an increase in operating costs related to the upgrade of services to the properties acquired in June 2011.
Depreciation and Amortization – Depreciation and amortization expense is currently not material to the results of our operations. Depreciation and amortization expense was $30,858 and $51,278 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and $68,091 and $102,557 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively.
Other Income (Expense) – During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013, we reported a gain on derivative liability of $54,264 and $59,194, respectively. We estimate the fair value of the derivative for the conversion feature of certain convertible notes payable at the inception of notes and at each reporting date, using the Black-Scholes pricing model. As changes in the derivative liability are recorded at each reporting date, a gain or loss on derivative liability is recorded. We had no gain or loss on derivative liability for the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2012.
We reported a loss on extinguishment of debt of $2,832 for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2013. We had no loss on extinguishment of debt for the corresponding periods in the prior year.
Our interest expense was $66,691 and $53,658 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and $132,549 and $76,186 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The increase in interest expense in the current year is due primarily to the amortization of debt discount recorded in connection with our convertible notes payable.
Net Loss – We had a net loss of $523,090 and $491,495 for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, and $1,248,523 and $757,465 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. We have has ramped up operations and increased services to the properties acquired in June 2011. As a result, expenditures and operating costs have increased and we expect a growth in revenue to occur in the second half of 2013.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity is a measure of a company’s ability to meet potential cash requirements. Since inception, we have financed our cash flow requirements through issuance of common stock and notes payable. As we expand our activities, we may, and most likely will, continue to experience net negative cash flows from operations, pending additional revenues. Additionally, we anticipate obtaining additional financing to fund operations through common stock offerings to the extent available or to obtain additional debt financing to the extent necessary to augment our working capital. In the future we need to generate sufficient revenues from product and software sales in order to eliminate or reduce the need to sell additional stock or obtain additional debt. There can be no assurance we will be successful in raising the necessary funds to execute our business plan.
As of June 30, 2013, our total current assets were $162,698 and our current liabilities were $3,687,392, resulting in a working capital deficit of $3,524,694. As discussed in the notes to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we are currently in default on several notes payable. We also had an accumulated deficit of $17,062,280 and a total stockholders’ deficit of $2,521,975 at June 30, 2013
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we used net cash of $488,992 in operating activities as a result of our net loss of $1,248,523, gain on derivative liability of $59,194, increase in prepaid expenses of $2,000, and decreases in accounts payable of $6,492, payroll and sales tax payable of $4,740 and deferred revenue of $976, partially offset by non-cash expenses(excluding gain on derivative liability)totaling $436,627, decrease in accounts receivable, net of $4,583, and increases in accrued liabilities of $356,251 and accrued interest of $35,472.
By comparison, during the six months ended June 30, 2012, we used net cash of $403,704 in operating activities as a result of our net loss of $757,465, increase in accounts receivable of $3,689, and decreases in accounts payable of $79,790 and payroll and sales tax payable of $97,763, partially offset by non-cash expenses totaling $343,779, decrease in other assets of $1,075 and increases in deferred revenue of $5,239 and accrued expenses of $184,910.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, we used $17,858 and $247, respectively, comprised of purchases of property and equipment.
During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we had net cash provided by financing activities of $653,529, comprised of proceeds from notes payable of $47,500 and proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $617,529, partially offset by the payment of debt issuance costs of $2,500 and payment of notes payable of $9,000.
During the six months ended June 30, 2012, we had net cash provided by financing activities of $503,000, comprised of proceeds from notes payable of $400,000 and proceeds from the issuance of common of $198,000, partially offset by payment of notes payable of $95,000.
We anticipate that we are likely to incur operating losses during the next twelve months. Our current cash is not sufficient to fund our operations during this period. Our lack of operating history makes predictions of future operating results difficult to ascertain. Our prospects must be considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently encountered by companies in early operations, particularly companies in new and rapidly evolving markets. Such risks include, but are not limited to, an evolving
20
and unpredictable business model and the management of growth. These factors raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as agoing concern. To address these risks, we must, among other things, increase our customer base, implement and successfully execute our business and marketing strategy, respond to competitive developments, and attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing such risks, and the failure to do so can have a material adverse effect on our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
If new sources of financing are insufficient or unavailable, we will modify our growth and operating plans to the extent of available funding, if any. Any decision to modify our business plans would harm our ability to pursue our growth plans. If we cease or stop operations, our shares could become valueless. Historically, we have funded operating, administrative and development costs through the sale of equity capital and short term related party and other shareholder loans. If our plans and/or assumptions change or prove inaccurate, and we are unable to obtain further financing, or such financing and other capital resources, in addition to projected cash flow, if any, prove to be insufficient to fund operations, our continued viability could be at risk. To the extent that any such financing involves the sale of our equity, our current stockholders could be substantially diluted. There is no assurance that we will be successful in achieving any or all of these objectives in 2013 and 2014.
Management is currently seeking sources of equity and debt financing from current and potential investors. We have signed agreements with AT&T to upgrade services to all the existing Ygnition properties acquired in the June 2011 acquisition. We consider the upgrades to potentially increase revenue by offering improved services. The potential for increased revenue does not include a large capital investment. We will improve services without increasing but reducing the direct costs of providing services to each of the properties. There can however be no assurance that improving services will lead to increased revenue. To address the risks involved, we have to increase the customer base at each of the properties. Additionally, we have to receive more funding to provide sales and marketing, and increase the revenues in the properties.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Not required.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures
Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”). as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in applicable rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, in a manner that allows timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
21
As of March 31, 2013, we did not have the staffing resources to maintain the operating effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures or internal controls over financial reporting. During the quarter ended June 30, 2013, we engaged an experienced financial consultant to provide assistance with timely closing of our quarterly accounting records, the preparation of our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures, the preparation and review of our periodic reports filed with the SEC, and to provide ongoing support to our Vice President of Finance. We believe this additional resource allows us to maintain the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting and enhance the segregation of duties over accounting and financial reporting tasks.
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Other than the engagement of the financial consultant discussed above, there have been no changes in internal control over financial reporting during period ended June 30, 2013.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Vendors
On June 15, 2011 we received a default judgment from the State of Michigan Judicial Court in conjunction with the default on lease payments to a landlord in conjunction with a lease agreement. The judgment was for $191,160, which was recorded as a liability. We entered into a settlement with the landlord for $75,000 on November 15, 2011. As of June 30, 2013, we have satisfied the outstanding liability.
Siegfried and Jensen
On September 26, 2012, we received a “Summons & Complaint” from Ned P. Siegfried and Mitchell R. Jensen in conjunction with an outstanding $50,000 “Convertible Promissory Note.” Under the complaint Siegfried and Jensen are asking for $68,000, interest to date and attorney fees. The $50,000 Convertible Promissory Note was signed on October 1, 2010 and had a conversion price of $0.70. Throughout the duration of the note, we have tried several times to reach out to Siegfried & Jensen to settle this debt. We have offered reduced conversion prices, none of which were satisfactory to Siegfried & Jensen. On October 23, 2012, we filed an “Answer to Complaint”, in the Third Judicial District Court in the State of Utah. As of August 2013, the complaint continues in legal proceedings.
UTOPIA
On March 2, 2011, we received from UTOPIA a notice of termination in conjunction with the agreement between Connected Lyfe and UTOPIA entitled Non-Exclusive Network Access and Use Agreement. According to the notice, Connected Lyfe had until May 2, 2011 to transition its customers to another service provider on the UTOPIA network or cure the breach by working out an arrangement with UTOPIA that is acceptable. The notice of termination is due to non-payment of network access fees.
On March 3, 2011, we received a “notice of exercise of video system reversionary rights” from UTOPIA. Currently, there is a dispute between UTOPIA and Connected Lyfe as to who has not
22
performed under the existing contract. As stated in the notice, UTOPIA had been working with Connected Lyfe on a resolution.
On September 28, 2012, we received a “notice of transfer of customers” from UTOPIA to transfer the existing customer base to another provider on their network.
On October 2, 2012, we received a “Summons & Complaint” from UTOPIA in conjunction with their claim that we failed to comply with both the “Network Access Agreement” and the “Video Systems Agreement”. Under the complaint, UTOPIA is asking for $495,000 in relief from Connected Lyfe, Inc.
On October 10, 2012, we signed an agreement with Veracity Networks to transfer those customers remaining on the UTOPIA network.
On November 2, 2012, we filed our official answer and subsequent counter complaint to the Utopia allegations. We allege in our answer and counter claim to the court that Utopia failed to deliver the Video Head End as per the “Video Systems Agreement” which was executed on June 21, 2010, and seek reimbursement of $375,000. Further, we allege in our answer and counter claim that Utopia has consistently overbilled for services, and prevented us from managing our customer accounts on the Utopia network, resulting in $240,000 of damages. Further, we are also claiming the full value of its customers that were transferred as a result of Utopia’s actions in October 2012. We are seeking $1,900,000 in damages. Finally, we are claiming substantial additional consequential and punitive damages. These actions came after years of failed negotiations between Utopia and us. We decided it was in the best interest of our shareholders to take decisive action in a court of law against Utopia in order to recover any losses that Utopia has caused us to incur and believe that we will be successful in this pursuit. As of June 30, 2013, we have a $350,000 deposit recorded on the balance sheet in other assets as well as $446,212 recorded in accounts payable related to this matter.
