To theManagement and the Board of Directors of Reverb Holdings, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Reverb Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, which comprise theconsolidatedbalance sheetas of December 31, 2018, and the related consolidatedstatements of operations, comprehensive loss, shareholders’ deficit and cash flows for the year then ended.

Management’s Responsibility for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditors’ Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on our judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, we consider internal control relevant to the Company’s preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Reverb Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries as of December 31, 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Reverb Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2018

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS

Since 2013 Reverb.com, LLC (“Reverb.com“) has become the premier digital marketplace for buyers and sellers of new, used and vintage musical instruments and vinyl records. Reverb.com is a wholly owned subsidiary of Reverb Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Reverb”). The Company was formed in October 2015 as a result of a corporate reorganization associated with the issuance of Series B preferred stock (Note 8).

In addition to Reverb.com, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries include Reverb Flippers, LLC (“Flippers”), an online storefront, and Reverb B.V. (“B.V.”), a Dutch entity formed in April 2016 to replicate Reverb’s activity in international markets. In January 2017, Reverb Resellers B.V. (“Resellers B.V.”), an online storefront in Europe was also formed and in November 2018, Reverb Japan (G.K.), a Japanese entity was established to grow Reverb’s presence in Japan. Reverb.com, Flippers, B.V., Resellers B.V. and Reverb Japan are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Subsidiaries.”

During the year ended December 31, 2018, Reverb.com sold approximately $514,941,589, of musical instruments and other goods (“Gross Merchandise Value” or “GMV”) through its online platform.

2. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements conforms with and adheres to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant items subject to estimates and assumptions include income taxes and capitalized software costs. The Company evaluates its estimates and judgments on an ongoing basis and revises them as necessary. Actual results may differ from the original or revised estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash

The Company considers all marketable securities with an original maturity of three months or less at time of purchase to be cash equivalents. The Company considers cash collected on behalf of Reverb Sellers for items sold on the site as well as from the sale of gift cards to be restricted and not available for other general purposes. For cash flow purposes, the Company includes restricted cash as a cash and cash equivalent, which is summarized as follows at December 31, 2018:

	2018
Cash and cash equivalents	$	3,633,855
Restricted cash for the benefit of seller accounts		1,860,561
Cash and cash equivalents for the statement of cash flow purposes	$	5,494,416

Reverb Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2018

In November 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued a new standard ASU2016-18Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash that provides guidance around eight different cash flow considerations, including requiring that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Therefore, amounts generally described as restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents should be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling thebeginning-of-period andend-of-period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The revised standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted this standard in 2016.

Marketable Securities

All marketable securities held by the Company including U.S. Treasury bills and U.S. Treasury notes are classified as available for sale and are carried at fair value, in accordance withAccounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320 – Investments – Equity Securities. The current and noncurrent classification of these securities is based on the respective maturity date of the security. Amortization, accretion, interest and dividends, realized gains and losses are reported as a component of other income (loss) in the consolidated statements of operations. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity to the extent they are considered temporary in nature. At December 31, 2018, fair value of all marketable securities were all consider to be Level 1 assets.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist of cash and cash equivalents and marketable securities. The Company reduces credit risk by depositing its cash and cash equivalents at major financial institutions with high credit ratings. At times, such amounts may exceed federally insured limits. Accounts receivable subject Reverb to potential credit risk as well. The Company mitigates this risk by having authorization to charge the customer’s credit card on file for the receivable balance. Additionally, Reverb reserves the right to offset the outstanding seller receivables against proceeds from future sales.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management believes that the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates their carrying value due to their immediate or short-term nature.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company’s trade accounts receivable is recorded at amounts billed to Reverb sellers net of the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance is determined by several factors including age of the receivable, historical collectability, and management’s assessment of the financial condition of Reverb sellers. Receivables are written off once they are deemed uncollectible. Estimates of uncollectible accounts receivable are included in general and administrative expense.

Funds Receivable for the Benefit of Seller Accounts and Funds Payable to Sellers

Funds receivable for the benefit of seller accounts represents payments to be received from buyers who have purchased items through Reverb.com. These payments are processed by third-party credit card processors and are collected in Reverb’s bank account before being paid to the sellers. Funds payable to sellers are amounts due to Reverb sellers who sold items through Reverb.com which are collected from buyers by Reverb and paid to the sellers.

Inventory

Inventory includes, merchandise inventory, digital inventory, Flippers pedal inventory, vinyl records and others. Inventory is valued at net realizable value, with cost determined using the weighted-average cost method. The Company records inventory in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 330 - Inventory.

Property and Equipment

Property and Equipment, consisting of computer equipment, furniture and fixtures and leasehold improvements, is recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization begin at the time the asset is placed into service and are recognized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows: computer equipment – three years, furniture and fixtures – three years, leasehold improvements – shorter of useful life or lease term of two to five years. Repairs and maintenance are charged to general and administrative expense as incurred. Upon sale or retirement of assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation or amortization are removed from the balance sheet and the resulting gain or loss is reflected in operations. Property and equipment are recorded in accordance withASC 360 – Property, Plant and Equipment.

Intangible Assets

Reverb’s intangible asset consists of its domain name, website costs and other intangibles which are recorded in accordance withASC 350 – Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. The domain name cost is not amortized as it is considered to be intertwined with the Reverb brand and therefore it is an indefinite lived asset. Management assesses potential impairment of the indefinite life asset on an annual basis and more frequently when a potential triggering event indicating that the fair value of the intangible assets may be below its carrying amount. When a triggering event occurs an impairment test for the asset is performed by comparing the fair value of the asset with its carrying amount to determine whether an impairment of value exists. No impairment occurred as of December 31, 2018.

Internal-Use Software and Website Development Costs

Costs incurred to develop software for internal use and the Company’s website are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software, generally three years, assuming no residual value. In accordance withASC350-40 – Internal Use Software, capitalization of costs to develop software begin when preliminary efforts are successfully completed, management has authorized and committed project funding and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software used as intended. The Company also capitalizes costs related to upgrades and enhancements when it is probable the expenditures will result in additional functionality or will extend the useful life of the software. Costs related to the design or maintenance ofinternal-use software and website development are expensed as incurred. The Company periodically reviewsinternal-use software and website development costs to determine whether the projects will be completed, placed in service, removed from service or replaced by other internally developed or third-party software. If the asset is not expected to provide any future benefit, the asset is retired and any unamortized cost is expensed. These costs are included in capitalized software development costs, net, and intangible assets net, on the consolidated balance sheet. See Notes 6 and 7.

Leases

Rent expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease period. Lease incentives are deferred and amortized over the life of the lease.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2018

Income Taxes

The income tax provision is based on income (loss) before income taxes and is accounted for under the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities. This method uses enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to settle. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized as income or expense in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred income taxes are all presented as long term and netted on a jurisdictional basis. Management assesses the need for a valuation allowance on an annual basis which may reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts expected to be realized.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes using a recognition threshold, a measurement attribute for financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions to be taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. For benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by the taxation authorities. The amount recognized is the largest amount of benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate audit settlement.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance withASC 718 – Compensation – Stock Compensation. For employee stock-based awards, the Company calculates the fair value of the award on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The expense is recognized over the requisite service period for awards expected to vest. The Company uses equity valuations based on comparable publicly-traded companies and discounted free cash flow methods in estimating the fair value of the common stock. Other assumptions include a risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant and expected volatilities based on implied volatilities from market comparisons of certain publicly-traded companies and other factors.

As of January 1, 2018, the Company adopted ASU2016-09 —Stock Compensation: Improvements to Employee Share-based Payment Accounting , for share-based payment transactions that require a reporting entity to recognize excess tax benefits and deficiencies as income tax expense or benefit in the income statement. The adoption did not have a material effect on the Company’s income tax expense.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s revenue is diversified, generated from activities on Reverb.com and seller services provided to Reverb’s customers. The Company evaluates whether it is appropriate to recognize revenue on a gross or net basis upon its evaluation of whether it is the primary obligor in a transaction, has inventory risk and has latitude in establishing pricing and selecting suppliers, among other factors. The Company recognizes revenue when all of the following conditions are satisfied:

• There is persuasive evidence of an arrangement.

• The service has been provided and/or the title of the good has passed to the Reverb customer.

• The collection of fees is reasonably assured, and

• The amount of fees to be paid by the Reverb seller is fixed or determinable.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

ASU2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the FASB issued a new standard on revenue recognition. The new standard redefines revenue recognition around the instance of transfer of control, rather than the transfer of risks and rewards, and also provides recognition guidance in instances of variable consideration, licenses and contract costs. This new standard is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted subject to certain limitations. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its financial condition and results from operations.

ASU2016-08 Principal Versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross Versus Net)

In March 2016, the FASB issued a new standard on revenue recognition. The new standard clarifies how an entity should identify the unit of accounting for principal versus agent evaluation and how it should apply the control principle to certain types of arrangements. The amendments reframe the indicators to focus on evidence that an entity is acting as a principal rather than as an agent. If an entity is found to be an agent, it must recognize revenue on a net basis, otherwise gross revenue recognition is permitted. The revised standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its financial condition and results from operations.

ASU2016-02 Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued a new standard increasing transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The revised standard is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption of the standard is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of this standard will have on its financial condition and results from operations.

The Company’s has generated net losses in the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016 totaling $24,459,748 as it has executed on its business strategy to expand the usage of its digital music exchange to sell musical instruments and service offerings. It has also used net cash in operating and investing activities totaling $8,333,993 in 2018 and $9,444,589 in 2017 and has relied upon cash raised from the issuance of preferred stock, the most recent round in August 2017, to fund its operations. At December 31, 2018, the Company had $3,633,855 in unrestricted cash on hand. As a result of these matters, uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as going concern were present as of December 31, 2018. Management has taken actions to assess the Company’s strategic direction, including its liquidity. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2018, management developed a plan to operate profitably which included cost reductions in marketing(pay-per -click) and other expenditures, as well as making less investment to increase revenue without increasing margins. To provide further liquidity, the Company entered a $5,000,000 Loan Agreement with Silicon Valley Bank on January 11, 2019 (see Note 14), for which it drew the entire amount on April 1, 2019. The Loan Agreement matures on January 11, 2022 and requires interest only payments in the first year and monthly principal payments of $208,333 starting April 1, 2020. The Company has also collected $1,848,000 of the outstanding promissory note balance with the Chicago Music Exchange (“CME”) as of May 31, 2019. Management believes that these actions and the execution of its strategy will provide sufficient liquidity for the Company to operate in the normal course of business and continue as a going concern through June 30, 2020. The financial statements have been prepared assuming the entity will continue as a going concern.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company has characterized its investments in marketable securities, based on the priority of the inputs used to value the investments, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1), and lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). If the inputs used to measure the investments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the investment. Investments recorded in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets are categorized based on the inputs to valuation techniques as follows:

Level 1	Quoted prices for identical assets in active markets that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2	Inputs other than Level 1 that are based on quoted market prices in markets that are not active or model derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets.
Level 3	Inputs that are derived from techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

The following are the major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis at December 31, 2018.

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Non-current marketable securities Certificate of deposit	$	994,471	$	—	$	—	$	994,471

8. REDEEMABLE PREFERRED STOCK

Accounting for Redeemable Preferred Stock

To conform with public company standards, in August 2019, the Company retrospectively adjusted the method for which it accounts for Redeemable Preferred Stock. These financial statements reflect a change in accounting for these equity instruments in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity. ASC 480 requires redeemable securities that are not liabilities to be reported in mezzanine equity on the balance sheet and for those redeemable securities with a stated redemption date, to also be accreted to their redemption value over the period from issuance to redemption date. Therefore, the Company has presented all of its Preferred Stock as mezzanine equity and as the Series B andB-1 Preferred Stock are also redeemable at a stated redemption date, the carrying value is being accreted to their redemption value over the period from issuance to the redemption date in the accompanying financial statements. As a result, the Company reclassified $48,602,510 of amounts previously presented within equity, including accretion of $2,383,865, at December 31, 2017. During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded accretion of $1,701,634.

Deferred tax attributes resulting from differences between financial accounting amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities at December 31, 2018 are as follows:

Deferred tax assets
Net operating loss carryforwards	$	7,480,269
Stock compensation		156,939
Bad debt reserve		34,484
Deferred rent		54,516
Research and development credits		668,556
Fixed asset depreciation		58,708
Other assets		80,290
Deferred tax assets		8,533,762
Deferred tax liabilities
Capitalized software development and intangible asset		(1,380,754	)
Other prepaid liabilities		(36,762	)
Deferred tax liabilities		(1,417,516	)
Valuation allowance		(7,116,246	)
Net deferred tax liability	$	—

In assessing the realizability of the above deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon the recent operating losses, historical taxable losses and projections for future taxable income over the periods in which the deferred tax assets are deductible, management believes that it is more likely than not that the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards (“NOLs”) and other deferred tax assets will not be realized. As such, the Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax asset, excluding the deferred tax liability for indefinite-lived intangibles.

At December 31, 2018, the Company had federal NOLs of $26,478,138, of which $18,209,189 will begin to expire between 2035 and 2037. At December 31, 2018, the Company had state NOLs of $20,672,125, which will begin to expire in 2027. At December 31, 2018, the Company had foreign NOLs of $425,378, which will begin to expire in 2027.

As of December 31, 2018, the Company has not recorded any liabilities for uncertain tax positions. The Company does not anticipate any significant changes to this position in the next 12 months. The Company recognizes accrued interest and/or penalties related to unrecognized tax positions in income tax expense in the consolidated statement of operations.
