FUTURE NOW GROUP INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED) AS OF MARCH 31, 2009
NOTE 1.: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of Future Now Group Inc. (“FNGI”, the “Company” or “Future Now”), have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q of Regulation SX. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the period ended March 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2009. This document should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Form 10KSB filing for June 30, 2008 and other financial reports filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Liquidity. As of March 31, 2009, we had $122,218 in cash, of which $100,000 is restricted and acts as collateral for a bank credit facility. We had $20,827 in marketable securities and $199,735 in accounts receivable, $1,026,610 in working capital deficiency, and an accumulated deficit of $3,666,316. Our net loss and operating loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 was $1,772,572 and $1,079,491 million, respectively. On April 13, 2009 an investor with $1,800,000 principal amount of convertible notes issued a default notice for non-payment. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
The Company is presently in discussions with the investor that issued the default notice and is also exploring other potential financial transaction to restructure the Balance Sheet so as to continue to effectively pursue its business plan. Once restructured the Company plans to continuing to look for additional capital as well as consider other strategic financial transaction and partnering opportunities. Until such a time the Company plans to maintain its operations at bear minimum costs and management will continue to defer compensation as required. No adjustment has been made in the accompanying financial statements to the carrying amount and classification of recorded assets and liabilities should we be unable to continue operations.
NOTE 2.: BANK CREDIT LINE
On November 6, 2008, the Company entered into a $500,000 working capital credit facility “Credit Line” with a bank. The Credit Line requires the Company to post a certificate of deposit (“CD”) for up to $250,000 against the total availability on the Credit Line. The Credit Line is personally guaranteed by the Chief Financial Officer of the Company. For such guarantee the Chief Financial Officer received 2,500,000 stock options with an exercise price of $0.04. The Credit Line will bear interest at the prime rate plus 1.5%. On January 15, 2009, the Company posted a CD of $100,000 and subsequently borrowed $100,000. On May 10, 2009, the Company informed the bank which held the Credit Line that they wanted to close down the Credit Line. The amount outstanding immediately prior to this was $100,000. The CD that was held as collateral for the Credit Line was $100,000, as part of the closing of the Credit Line the CD was used to payoff the Credit Line.
NOTE 3.: COMMON STOCK
On August 25, 2008, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with one investor pursuant to which the Company sold 555,556 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”), and warrants to purchase 277,778 shares of common stock (the “Warrants”) to the Buyer for total proceeds of $100,000. The Warrants have an exercise price of $0.36 per share (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrants may be exercised at any time on or after the issuance date for a period of five (5) years. The Exercise Price may be adjusted upon stock dividends, stock splits, subsequent equity sales by the Company, pro rata distributions among the Company’s existing shareholders, the Company’s undertaking a fundamental transaction, or voluntarily at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors.
On January 30, 2009, the Board of Directors granted a total of 14,204,048 shares of the Company’s common stock to a total of eight company personnel as compensation for the retirement of a total of $214,481 in compensation that had been deferred since August 2008 (“Salary Conversion”). The Salary Conversion included all compensation deferred up to and including January 31, 2009. The number of shares received for the Salary Conversion was priced at the then current market price of the Company’s common stock which was $0.0151. As part of the Salary Conversion, the Company agreed to pay 20% cash to the personnel to assist with the coverage of tax implications related to the conversion. The total amount of such payment will be $42,896 and is to be paid on or before December 31, 2009. As part of the agreement, the participants further agreed to defer all or a portion of their February salary as determined by the Chief Executive and Financial Officer of the Company.
On March 30, 2009, the Board of Directors, by the agreement of all personnel that participated in the Salary Conversion, resolved to cancel the grant. Such shares will be returned to treasury. Furthermore through written acknowledgement of the participants in the Salary Conversion all $214,481 that was accrued was waived by such participants. Such amount was recorded in the Company statement of operations as an expense with the corresponding credit to paid-in-capital. From February 1, 2009 through March 31, 2009 certain personnel again deferred their compensation. Through March 31, 2009 $119,100 has been deferred and is recorded as a liability on the Balance Sheet.
NOTE 4.: STOCK BASED COMPENSATION
On July 18, 2007, through written consent in lieu of a special meeting of the stockholders and the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company, the 2007 stock incentive plan was adopted (the “Plan”). The Plan provides a maximum number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued there under, which amount shall be equal to no more than 25% of the outstanding common stock of the Company, determined on the first trading day of each fiscal year. On August 6, 2008, for certain salary deferrals, the Board granted 1,250,000 options under the Plan to five executive managers (the “Grantees”). The options granted had an exercise price of $0.26 with 50% vesting immediately and the remaining amount vesting on the six-month anniversary. On August 6, 2008, for a certain personal guarantee by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, the Board granted 1,250,000 options under the Plan. The options granted had an exercise price of $0.26 and were fully vested at issuance. On August 31, 2008, the Board granted an additional 100,000 options to four new advisory board members. The options had an exercise price of $0.35 and vest after one year.
On August 8, 2008, as part of a financial consulting agreement, the Company issued 2,500,000 shares of restricted common stock. The agreement is for a period of three years. The market value as of the date of issuance was $550,000. The Company has recorded the initial amount as a Prepaid Expense on the Balance Sheet with the corresponding credit to capital stock and additional paid in capital. The Company is amortizing that amount on a monthly basis over the three-year life of the agreement at a rate of $15,278 per month. For the six months ended December 31, 2008, the Company recorded $76,390 in stock based compensation related to this arrangement.
On August 31, 2008, the Company issued a total of 44,444 shares of Company stock to its two independent board members as payment for their quarterly retainer fees. The Company recorded $12,000 in stock based compensation related to this issuance.
On October 28, 2008, the Board of Directors granted a total of 2,515,000 stock options to key employees of the Company. The newly issued options consisted of; (i) 2,500,000 five-year stock options issued to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer for a personal guarantee under a $500,000 working capital credit line with a bank. The options were issued at market and are exercisable at $0.04 and vested immediately. Related to this grant the Chief Financial Officer canceled 1,250,000 stock options previously received for a personal guarantee that was executed related to an accounts receivable factor line of credit that has since been cancelled; and (ii) 15,000 stock options that vest over a four year period and are exercisable at $0.04. In October 2008, 1,254,625 stock options were forfeited by certain employees related to the termination of their employment with the Company. Additionally, on October 28, 2008, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized to reduce the exercise price to $0.04 and extend the contractual term to five years from October 28, 2008 for an aggregate 7,469,743 fully vested stock options held by key management of the Company. The revised terms of the stock options were accounted for as a modification in accordance with SFAS 123R. The modification of the stock options was treated as an exchange of the original award for a new award. In connection with the modification the Company recognized incremental compensation in the amount of $107,500 measured as the excess of the fair value of the modified award over the fair value of the original award immediately before its terms were modified. For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, the Company recorded a total of $355,873 in stock based compensation related to stock option issuances.
The Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to estimate the fair value of its stock option awards and warrant issuances. The calculation of the fair value of the awards using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is affected by the Company’s stock price on the date of grant as well as assumptions regarding the following:
| · | Estimated volatility is a measure of the amount by which the Company’s stock price is expected to fluctuate each year during the expected life of the award. The Company’s estimated volatility is an average of the historical volatility of peer entities whose stock prices were publicly available. The Company’s calculation of estimated volatility is based on historical stock prices of these peer entities over a period equal to the expected life of the awards. The Company uses the historical volatility of peer entities due to the lack of sufficient historical data of its stock price; |
| | |
| · | The expected term represents the period of time that awards granted are expected to be outstanding and is currently the average of the contractual term and the vesting period. With the passage of time, actual behavioral patterns surrounding the expected term will replace the current methodology; and |
| | |
| · | The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond on the date the stock option award is granted with a maturity equal to the expected term of the stock option award. An increase in the risk-free interest rate would result in an increase to the Company’s stock-based compensation expense. |

NOTE 5.: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On April 13, 2009, the Company received two notices, each dated April 8, 2009. Each of the letters were written and signed on behalf of the lenders, Professional Traders Management LLC and Professional Offshore Opportunity Fund Ltd (collectively referred to as “PTM”). The letters stated that under Section 6 of the secured convertible debentures, the Company was in default for non-payment, as a result of which PTM intends to begin a foreclosure process within five (5) business days. As of the date of this filing no foreclosure process has begun and the Company is currently in the process of negotiating with PTM. The face value of the debt that is currently in default is $1,800,000.
In addition to the negotiations with PTM the Company is also in technical default of the convertible notes (the “Notes”) entered into on various dates between March 2007 and August 2007. Section 2 (c) of such Notes contains an automatic principal redemption feature (the “Redemption Feature”) whereby the Company will pay three and one-half percent of its gross revenues to redeem the Notes. The first measurement period for the redemption payment was from April 1, 2007 through March 31, 2008. In April 2008, the Company remitted a total of $75,891 in principal to the Note holders. The outstanding principal balance of the Notes as of March 31, 2009 was $374,109 and accrued interest of $13,811. For the period from April 1, 2008 through March 31, 2009 the Company reported $2,002,141 in gross revenue. As such a redemption payment of $70,074 is currently due on the Notes.

Our Business
From our inception on January 23, 2006 to June 30, 2007, we were engaged in no significant operations other than organizational activities, acquiring and staking our properties, preparing the registration statements covering our securities and planning Phase 1 of the exploration work on the Fir property. The Fir property is twenty-one cell mineral claims covering an area totaling 433.24 hectares located in the Kamloops Mining Division in south central British Columbia, approximately 35 kilometers south of Kamloops, B.C. On May 11, 2007, we announced that we had abandoned this property determining that the claim did not cover enough ground to host a viable exploration target. We then abandoned our previous business plan and focused on the identification of suitable businesses with which to enter into a business opportunity or business combination. On October 30, 2007, we entered into a share exchange agreement with FNI (as defined below), a privately held Delaware corporation, and the shareholders of FNI. The closing of the transactions contemplated in the share exchange agreement and the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of FNI occurred on October 30, 2007.
Through our wholly-owned subsidiaries, we provide online marketing optimization services and software solutions utilizing a proprietary methodology and supporting set of software tools that help businesses improve their online marketing to generate more sales, leads, and subscriptions.
Share Exchange with Future Now, Inc.
On October 30, 2007, we entered into a share exchange agreement with Future Now Inc., a privately held Delaware corporation (“FNI”), and the shareholders of FNI. The closing of the transactions contemplated in the share exchange agreement and the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of FNI occurred on October 30, 2007. In accordance with the closing of the share exchange, we issued 50,394,191 shares of our common stock to the shareholders of FNI, in exchange for the acquisition, by us, of all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of FNI, on the basis of one share of our common stock for one share of common stock of FNI.
We had 71,242,191 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of October 30, 2007 as a result of the issuance of 50,394,191 shares of common stock in connection with the closing of the share exchange and the concurrent cancellation of 32,000,000 shares of common stock owned by our former directors. As of the closing date of the share exchange, the former shareholders of FNI, held approximately 70.74% of our issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The issuance of 50,394,191 shares of common stock to the former shareholders of FNI was deemed to be a reverse acquisition for accounting purposes. Accordingly, FNI, the accounting acquirer entity, is regarded as our predecessor entity as of October 30, 2007. As a result of the share exchange, FNI became our wholly owned subsidiary. We will continue to file annual and quarterly reports based upon our fiscal year end of June 30.
Trends in our Business
The market demand for our product offering continues to grow rapidly. The down turn in the economy should only increase the demand for offerings that can improve the return on capital expenditures. Since inception we have serviced over 300 clients. However, with the January 2009 launch of our new software product, Ontarget™, which now puts our Company’s 10 years of expertise in a simple application and a price point for every small business we anticipate the number of clients to grow rapidly. If our customer base does grow at the pace we expect we will be required to continue making upfront investments in personnel necessary to support this growth. The rate at which we add new customers, along with the scale of new customer implementations, will affect the level of these upfront investments. Revenues for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 decreased by 5.1% compared to the same period in 2008, and our gross margins increased to 73.6% from 67.5%, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009 we signed on and billed 55 new OnTarget™ customers versus 8 for the prior quarter and 0 for the same period in the prior year. During the three months ended March 31, 2009 we recorded a total of $110,500 in monthly subscription fee revenues versus $8,250 for the prior quarter and $0 the same period in the prior year. We still plan to deliver custom professional services, however, our future growth plans are focused on the rapid deployment of our software-as-a –service product.
We expect operating and infrastructure expenses to continue increasing in absolute dollars, but to decline over time as a percentage of total revenues due to anticipated economies of scale in our business support functions. We also expect our future operating expenses to increase in absolute dollars due to the incremental salaries, benefits and expenses related to future acquisitions.Going forward we also intend to invest in sales and marketing by increasing the number of sales personnel, the number of distribution channels, building further brand recognition through advertising, writing, speaking and other marketing initiatives. We expect that sales and marketing expenses will increase in both dollars as well as a percentage of overall operating expenses. Generally sales personnel are not immediately productive and sales and marketing expenses do not immediately result in revenues. Even though this reduces short-term operating margins as marketing efficiency improves, more revenues and higher margin should result.
We anticipate that research and development expenses will continue to increase in absolute dollars, but decline over time as a percentage of total revenues as we achieved a position with our software that does not require significant further modifications.
We anticipate that general and administrative expenses will increase in dollars as we add personnel and incur additional expenses to support the expansion of our business and continue to meet the operating requirements of being a public company.
We expect stock-based compensation expenses to increase in absolute dollars but decline over time as a percentage of total revenues, as we continue to comply with the requirements of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards, or SFAS, No. 123R, Share-Based Payment. Beginning in the first quarter of 2006, SFAS No. 123R required us to record compensation expense based on the fair value of stock awards at the date of grant. The actual amount of stock-based compensation expense we record in any fiscal period will depend on a number of factors including: the number of shares subject to the stock options issued, the fair value of our common stock at the time of issuance and the volatility of our stock price over time.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2009, in connection with a separation agreement with Howard Kaplan, we recorded a $25,000 expense related to his promissory note and recorded $40,000 in settlement costs related to separation for Mr. Kaplan and the executive sales team. For the nine month period ended March 31, 2008 we recorded $40,000 as other expense related to penalties associated with the delayed filing of our registration statement.
Net (Loss)
Our net loss for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 was ($1,772,573) as compared to a net loss of ($1,670,820), for the same period ended March 31, 2008. Net loss as a percentage of total revenues was 116,8% for the three months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to 104.4% for the same period ended March 31, 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2009, we had $122,218 in cash, of which $100,000 is restricted and acts as collateral for a bank credit facility. We had $20,827 in marketable securities, $199,735 in accounts receivable, $1,026,610 in working capital deficiency, and an accumulated deficit of $3,666,316.
On April 13, 2009, Professional Traders Management LLC and Professional Offshore Opportunity Fund Ltd. (collectively referred to as “PTM”), investors in our secured convertible debentures, issued default notices for our non-payment of the convertible debentures with a face value of $1,8000. PTM indicated that it intends to begin a foreclosure process within five business days. As of the date hereof, no foreclosure process has been initiated against us. We are presently in negotiations with PTM and are also exploring other potential transactions to permit us to continue to effectively pursue our business plan. These conditions raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. We intend to continue to look for additional capital as well as to consider other strategic financial transactions and partnership opportunities. Until such a time as we undertake a strategic financial transaction or partnership opportunity, we intend to maintain minimum operating costs and management will continue to defer compensation as required. No adjustment has been made in the accompanying financial statements to the carrying amount and classification of recorded assets and liabilities should we be unable to continue operations.
Cash Provided by Financing Activities
On August 25, 2008, we entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with one investor (the “Buyer”) pursuant to which we sold 555,556 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”), and warrants to purchase 277,778 shares of common stock (the “Warrants”) to the Buyer for total proceeds of $100,000. The Warrants have an exercise price of $0.36 per share (the “Exercise Price”). The Warrants may be exercised at any time on or after the issuance date for a period of five (5) years. The Exercise Price may be adjusted upon stock dividends, stock splits, subsequent equity sales by us, pro rata distributions among our existing shareholders, the undertaking by us of a fundamental transaction, or voluntarily at the discretion of our Board of Directors.
During the three months ended March 31, 2009 we closed on a credit line with a bank and drew down $100,000 of the line.
Cash Flow Used in Operating Activities
Operating activities used cash of $306,249 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to $1,029,335 for the same period ending March 31, 2008. The decrease in cash used for operating activities for the nine months ended March 31, 2009 was primarily a result of reduced net operating loses and officer and director compensation waiver of salaries owed of $214,481.
Cash Flow Used in Investing Activities
Investing activities used cash of $0 for the nine months ended March 31, 2009, as compared to cash used of $40,089 for the same period ended March 31, 2008.
Capital Expenditures
We moved our entire operations to our new facility at the end of January 2008. Through June 30, 2008 we spent $48,685 on a build out of the new space. A majority of the leasehold improvements have been completed. We do not expect to have any material capital expenditures in the future. Capital expenditures related to computer hardware are limited because of the outsourcing options available to us.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no outstanding derivative financial instruments, off-balance sheet guarantees, interest rate swap transactions or foreign currency contracts. We do not engage in trading activities involving non-exchange traded contracts.
Significant Accounting Policies
Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities.
We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements, so we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Because of the uncertainty inherent in these matters, actual results could differ from the estimates we use in applying the critical accounting policies. Certain of these critical accounting policies affect working capital account balances, including the policies for revenue recognition, allowance for doubtful accounts, inventory reserves and income taxes. These policies require that we make estimates in the preparation of our financial statements as of a given date. Within the context of these critical accounting policies, we are not currently aware of any reasonably likely events or circumstances that would result in materially different amounts being reported.
Revenue Recognition
We derive our revenue from the sale of products and services that we classify into the following three categories: (1) professional services; (2) software subscriptions, and (3) training and product sales. We utilize written contracts as the means to establish the terms and conditions upon which our products and services are sold to customers.
We recognize revenue in accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (“AICPA”) Statement of Position (“SOP”) 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and related interpretations, SOP 98-9, Modification of SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, With Respect to Certain Transactions, and Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104 — Revenue Recognition. For arrangements outside the scope of SOP 97-2, we evaluate if multiple elements can be accounted for separately in accordance with Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 00-21, Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables.
Professional service revenues -
Because we provide our applications as services, we follow the provisions of SAB No. 104, Revenue Recognition, and SOP 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition. We recognize revenue when all of the following conditions are met:
§ | there is persuasive evidence of an arrangement; |
§ | the service has been provided to the customer; |
§ | the collection of the fees is reasonably assured; and |
§ | the amount of fees to be paid by the customer is fixed or determinable. |
Since we cannot allocate a fair value to the various elements of its contracts based on vendor-specific objective evidence, we recognize revenue in accordance with contract accounting under the percentage-of-completion method. The professional service component of the monthly payment project is recognized as the services are performed. We recognize revenues resulting from professional services sold separately from the licensing services as those professional services are performed.
Software Subscriptions and Licensing
We derive our licensing revenue from selling software and methodology licenses to customers. We do not provide custom software development services or create tailored products to sell to specific customers. The software licenses are sold with certain post-contract services, installation and training. As such, the combination of these products and services represent a “multiple-element” arrangement for revenue recognition purposes. Since we cannot allocate a fair value to the various elements of our contracts based on vendor-specific objective evidence, we recognize revenue in accordance with contract accounting under the percentage-of-completion method.
Training, Product, and Content sales
We derive our product and content revenue from book and Internet downloadable product sales. Such sales are recognized at the point of sale.
Deferred revenues
Deferred revenues consist of billings or payments received in advance of revenue recognition for our professional services, licensing and training services described above and we recognize them as revenue only when the revenue recognition criteria are met.
Equity/revenue sharing revenues
We derive revenue through revenue and equity sharing arrangements (“RSP/ESP Agreement”) whereby we participate in online revenue (“Revenue Participation”) increases resulting from our recommendations and in an effort to reduce the cash outlay by clients might take some fees as equity ownership (“Equity Participation”) in clients. Along with all RSP/ESP Agreements we will also take cash payments for licensing, training and support services. Our policy as it pertains to recognizing revenue related to, such revenue is recorded as it is earned based upon stages outlined in the RSP/ESP Agreement.
Long-Lived Assets - Including Identified Intangible Assets with Finite Lives
Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, ranging from two to eight years. In accordance with SFAS 144, we review long-lived assets to be held and used for impairment whenever there is an indication that the carrying amount may not be recoverable from future estimated cash flows.
This standard requires an impairment analysis when indicators of impairment are present. If such indicators are present, the standard indicates that if the sum of the future expected cash flows from the asset, undiscounted and without interest charges, is less than the carrying value, an asset impairment must be recognized in the financial statements. The amount of the impairment is the difference between the fair value of the asset and the carrying value of the asset. We believe that the accounting estimate related to an asset impairment is a “critical accounting estimate” because it is highly susceptible to change from period to period and requires management to make assumptions about future cash flows, and because the impact of recognizing an impairment could have a significant effect on operating results. Management’s assumptions about future cash flows require significant judgments because actual operating levels have fluctuated in the past and are expected to continue to do so in the future.
Research and Software Development Costs
Costs incurred in the research and development of new software products and enhancements to existing software products are expensed as incurred until technological feasibility has been established. We determine technological feasibility when a working model has been completed. After technological feasibility is established, any additional costs are capitalized in accordance with SFAS No. 86, Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to Be Sold, Leased or Otherwise Marketed, until the product is available for general release. We will be considering the capitalization of research and software development costs next quarter because technological feasibility has almost been established for software being developed.
Debt Obligations with Warrants
Between the period of March 2007 and August 15, 2007, pursuant to an investment subscription agreement and closing documents (the “Offering”), we offered for sale three year 10.5% convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”), convertible into shares of our common stock. In the offering, we sold units consisting of $50,000 in Notes and seven-year warrants to purchase 16,000 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $0.75 per share (the “Warrants’). We issued Notes with a face amount of $675,000 and 216,000 Warrants. Under a placement agent agreement related to the Offering, we also issued placement agent warrants (“Placement Warrants”) in the amount of $28,161
In accordance with GAAP, we estimated the fair value of the Notes, Warrants and Placement Warrants. The initial fair value of the Notes reflected a fair value adjustment to the Notes for the estimated fair value of the Warrants issued in connection with this debt. The estimated fair value of the Warrants at the date of issuance, using the Black-Scholes valuation method, was $99,800, and has been recorded as a debt discount against the face value of the $675,000 Notes. This discount is being amortized as interest expense over the three-year term of the Notes. The initial fair value of the Placement Warrants that we are obligated to issue, using the Black Scholes valuation method, was $15,349, and has been recorded as deferred offering costs on the Financial Statements. The amount is being amortized over the three- year term of the Notes.
In connection with the share exchange, we received additional funding of $2,000,000 through the issuance of two year 11% convertible notes (“New Notes”) and stock purchase warrants (“New Warrants”) (both collectively referred to herein as, the “New Financing”). Along with the $2,000,000 face value of the notes we issued warrants to purchase 5,714,286 shares of our common stock, with one-half exercisable at $0.35 per share, and the other half at $0.50 per share, and with an expiration date that is five years from the date of issuance. Under a placement agent agreement amendment related to the New Financing, we also issued five-year placement agent warrants (“New Placement Warrants”) to purchase 571,429 shares of our common stock, at an exercise price of $0.35.
In accordance with GAAP, we estimated the fair value of the New Notes, New Warrants and New Placement Warrants. The initial fair value of the New Notes reflected a fair value adjustment to the New Notes for the estimated fair value of the New Warrants issued in connection with this debt. The estimated fair value of the New Warrants at the date of issuance, using the Black-Scholes valuation method, was $1,213,086 and has been recorded as a debt discount against the face value of the $2,000,000 New Notes. This discount is being amortized as interest expense over the three-year term of the Notes. The initial fair value of the New Placement Warrants that we are obligated to issue, using the Black Scholes valuation method, was $308,315, and has been recorded as deferred offering costs on the Financial Statements. The amount is being amortized over the two-year term of the New Notes.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is a critical accounting policy for us, due primarily to the significant judgment required when estimating the fair value of stock-based compensation awards, including the selection of a valuation method (e.g., Black-Scholes) and the underlying assumptions within such valuation (e.g. estimated lives and volatility).
On January 1, 2006, we adopted SFAS 123(R) using the modified-prospective transition method. Under this transition method, compensation cost recognized during the year ended December 31, 2006 includes: (a) compensation cost for all share-based awards granted prior to, but not yet vested as of, January 1, 2006 (including awards granted prior to January 1, 2003), based on the grant-date fair values and related service periods estimated in accordance with the original provisions of SFAS 123, and (b) compensation cost for all share-based awards granted subsequent to January 1, 2006, based on the grant-date fair values and related service periods estimated in accordance with the provisions of SFAS 123(R).
SFAS 123(R) clarifies and expands the guidance in SFAS 123 in several areas, including measuring fair value and attributing compensation cost to reporting periods. Changes prescribed by SFAS 123(R) include a requirement that we estimate forfeitures of share-based awards at the date of grant, rather than recognizing forfeitures as incurred as permitted by SFAS 123.
The fair values of restricted share rights are determined using the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant, while the fair values of stock options and stock purchase awards are estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The estimated fair values of awards are amortized over the vesting period of the applicable award.
Effective July 17, 2007, FNI adopted the 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”). Subsequent to June 30, 2007, we have issued stock options related to the Plan and have accounted for such options as provided for above.
Allowances for Accounts Receivable
We record a sales allowance to provide for estimated future adjustments to receivables, generally resulting from credits issued to customers in conjunction with amendments or renewals of subscription service arrangements. We record provisions for sales allowances as a reduction to revenues. Specific provisions are made based on amendments or renewals associated with specific subscription service arrangements, which are expected to result in the issuance of customer credits. Additionally, provisions are made based on actual credits issued as a percentage of our historical revenues. We evaluate the estimate of sales allowances on a regular basis and adjust the amount reserved accordingly.
We make judgments as to our ability to collect outstanding receivables and provide allowances when collection becomes doubtful. Specific provisions are made based on an account-by-account analysis of collectability. Additionally, we make provisions for non-customer-specific accounts based on our historical bad debt experience and current economic trends. We record provisions in operating expenses. We write off customer accounts receivable balances to the allowance for doubtful accounts when it becomes likely that we will not collect the receivable from the customer.
Income Taxes
We make estimates to determine our current provision for income taxes, as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities, income taxes payable and any valuation allowances. Our estimates related to our current provision for income taxes are based on current tax laws. Changes in tax laws or our interpretation of tax laws could impact the amounts provided for income taxes in our financial statements. We assess the likelihood that we will be able to recover our deferred tax assets. Realization of our deferred tax assets is dependent upon future taxable income as well as our use of prudent and feasible tax planning strategies. Our estimates regarding future profitability may change due to future market and industry conditions, changes in tax laws and other factors. We consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, including historical levels of income, expectations and risks associated with estimates of future taxable income, changes in tax laws, ongoing prudent and feasible profits and our stock price. To the extent we believe it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of our net deferred tax assets will not be realized, we establish a valuation allowance against the deferred tax assets. To the extent we establish or change a valuation allowance in a period, we reflect the change with a corresponding increase or decrease to our tax provision in the consolidated statement of operations.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We account for our goodwill and intangible assets pursuant to SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Under SFAS 142, intangibles with definite lives continue to be amortized on a straight-line basis over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or contractual terms. Goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives are evaluated at least annually for impairment by comparing the asset's estimated fair value with its carrying value, based on cash flow methodology.
Intangibles with definite lives are subject to impairment testing in the event of certain indicators. Impairment in the carrying value of an asset is recognized whenever anticipated future cash flows (undiscounted) from an asset are estimated to be less than its carrying value. The amount of the impairment recognized is the difference between the carrying value of the asset and its fair value.
